Mi Han

Judging from the map, Liangzhou newly established by Liu Bei almost included the entire northern territory of Yizhou.

The geographical location of Liangzhou is equivalent to an oversized version of Hanzhong County.

The strategic significance of Hanzhong in the past was that, as the northern gateway of Yizhou, it resisted the invasion of Cao Wei for Yizhou.

On the other hand, it will serve as a strategic base for the Han Dynasty to take the initiative to make a northern expedition to Guanzhong.

Since Liangzhou is an expanded version of Hanzhong County, its strategic significance is naturally equal to that of Hanzhong County.

And because the territory of Liangzhou covers thousands of miles, its strategic significance should be more profound than that of Hanzhong County.

Although the three counties of Tianshui, Longxi, and Wudu are not currently in the hands of the Han army, the geographical location of these three counties is very important.

From the map, these three counties are Chang'an's first line of defense against Hanzhong. Once these three counties fall into the hands of the Han army, the entire land of Yongliang will be exposed to the vanguard of the Han army at all times.

Which naturally also includes Chang'an.

Many people who have seen the map can roughly guess the strategic significance of Liu Bei's newly established Liangzhou.

But what Mi Yang never expected was that Liu Bei's move to reset Liangzhou was actually for the purpose of defeating Wu in the future.

As for how to achieve this, Prime Minister Zhuge has already made it very clear in the secret memorial.

Faced with Mi Yang's surprise, Liu Bei just patted Mi Yang's shoulder sitting below with deep meaning.

"Do you remember the public security battle back then?
How many times have I dreamed back in the middle of the night and I can't help thinking, if there was no you that day, would Jingzhou be able to hold on under the circumstances that Shiren had already surrendered to Jiangdong?

Counting in my heart several times, I secretly felt a chill down my spine.

I don't even dare to think too much about how rotten the situation in Jingzhou would have been without you that day, and what fate Yun Chang, who has been attacked before and after, would have suffered. "

"And if the big man loses Jingzhou, then my life's dream may be in vain.

Maybe you don't know that since you joined the army, you have made many military exploits that shocked the world.

It's just that what makes me most satisfied, what makes me feel most gratified, has always been your public security battle.

The victory in that battle was too important to me at the time.

Perhaps for me, I have a feeling of gratitude to you in my heart. "

Hearing what Liu Bei said, Mi Yang hurriedly bowed to Liu Bei, expressing that he did not dare to do it.

Perhaps due to the appearance of Mi Yang in this life, the event of Guan Yu's defeat in Maicheng did not happen in history.

Therefore, many people in the world do not understand enough about the profound impact of the victory of the Han army in the First Battle of Public Security.

But it is obvious that Liu Bei, Zhuge Liang, and even Guan Yu, who has passed away, do not know how important that big victory is to the big man.

Because of this, since Mi Yang won that big victory, it can be clearly seen that Liu Bei and Guan Yu have spared no effort in cultivating Mi Yang.

Among them is the reason why Liu Bei and Guan Yu are grateful to Mi Yang.

When Liu Bei saw Mi Yang expressing to him that he didn't dare to do it, he just smiled slightly.

He corrected his seat to sit sideways. This posture can make his body more relaxed, and it can better reflect his true emotions when he is talking with Mi Yang alone.

Now it is not the king who is teaching the courtiers, but a father who is speaking from his heart to the "sons and courtiers".

Liu Bei went on to say: "Although we won the first battle of Gong'an, I no longer have any hope for Sun Quan in that battle.

Even because of his wolfish ambition and treacherous behavior at that time, I always thought about conquering Jiangdong to vent my anger.

To this day, this thought in my heart has not diminished in the slightest.

It's just a pity that I am not a small county lieutenant now, and I can't act entirely on my will. In terms of the general trend of the world, it is not the time for the big man to start a decisive battle with Jiangdong. "

"But never forgetting the past is the guide for the future, I have to plan ahead.

I know that maybe the person who conquers Jiangdong in the future may not be me, but that person must be you, Zisheng, do you understand what I expect from you? "

When Liu Bei said this, Mi Yang felt a flame burning in his heart.

As soon as Liu Bei's words fell, Mi Yang bowed deeply to Liu Bei again, and replied: "I understand, I will live up to your majesty's high expectations."

Seeing Mi Yang's attitude of not shirking and daring to do things, Liu Bei felt even more satisfied with Mi Yang.

It's just that Liu Bei, who regards Mi Yang as his nephew, wants to say more to Mi Yang in his heart.

"In the past few years, you have been a leader in military exploits. In terms of employing people, although you are still a little immature, you are considered above the qualified level."

"There were only two things that I worried about you before, one was friendship and the other was politics.

As the saying goes, "the first strategy is to attack military affairs, the second is to attack diplomatic relations, and the next is to attack soldiers."

Sun Quan sent Zhang Wen to make friends with you with sinister intentions. I knew it from the very beginning, and because I knew it, I wanted to use this to test your ability to make friends.

What you did just now made my image of a big man even more glorious in the hearts of the world, but the reason why I am so happy is not just because of this.

The reputation of a big man, with me and Kong Ming, will not be bad no matter how bad it is.

What I am most pleased with is actually that you have almost perfectly resolved a trap that Sun Quan set for you and for the big man, which fully reflects your ability to cut diplomatic relations.

To tell you the truth, just now I found out about Sun Quan's offer of goodwill, even I found it very difficult.

I didn't expect that under such circumstances, you can adapt to the situation. I am really happy. "

Liu Bei's compliment made Mi Yang smile.

But seeing the smile on Mi Yang's face, Liu Bei subconsciously stretched out his hand and knocked Mi Yang on the head.

"You've done a good job, of course I won't hesitate to praise you, but don't be proud of it.

For one thing, you still won't let me down.But the next item of governance is the time to really test your ability.

Liangzhou is poor and weak, how can you train your military strength and accumulate military rations, and use it as the foundation for Japan's Northern Expedition in the future, all of these will depend on your future actions.

This is also another reason why I worship you as Liang Zhou Mu. "

Hearing what Liu Bei said, Mi Yang fully understood why Liu Bei made him the shepherd of Liangzhou.

If Liu Bei only wanted to give himself more power in terms of military strategy, Liu Bei could completely expand the jurisdiction of the Yibei Governorate, and even increase his power in terms of power saving.

But Liu Bei didn't do that.

The power of the state pastor is well known to the world, and it is actually the essence of a prince, which allows the state pastor to have great autonomy in governance within the state.

Liu Bei has a very obvious style, that is, when he tests you, he will definitely give you the corresponding power, so that you can use your talents without any scruples.

The reason why Liu Bei let himself become the shepherd of Liangzhou is to let himself show his ability in governance!
Mi Yang, who understood the intention of this layer, couldn't help but think of what Zhuge Liang said to him in the mansion that night.

At that time, he didn't think there was anything, he just thought it was Zhuge Liang's respect for him.

Even with the constant troubles in the world, he could hardly move his hands to fulfill the promise he made to Zhuge Liang that day.

And maybe Zhuge Liang has been in Chengdu, waiting to see his performance.

Thinking about it now, is it really Liu Bei's first thought of his idea of ​​being a state shepherd today?
Years of waiting under the dim lights indirectly made him the state shepherd he is today.

This is a joint test of Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang on him!

Perhaps it was also Liu Bei's final test for himself.

Thinking of this, a solemn look immediately appeared on Mi Yang's face.

He was no longer sitting on the ground, he got up from the ground and came to the center of the banquet, and then bowed deeply to Liu Bei with a very standard courtier's courtesy:
"The minister will do his best to live up to His Majesty."

When Mi Yang spit out the words "dedicated and dedicated", Liu Bei's eyes couldn't help but brighten.

These four words that have been passed down through the ages seem to have a magical power for Ji Han's idealists, so that they will love these four words very much when they hear these four words the first time they hear them.

Liu Bei is no exception.

Liu Bei laughed and got up slowly from the ground, came to Mi Yang's body, he pulled Mi Yang's body up, held his hand and said:
"Excellent, excellent."

Liu Bei thinks that he is not a monarch who is good at all aspects, but as a monarch, he has always wanted to find an aspiring successor who is good at all aspects.

After saying this with a smile, Liu Bei closed his smile.

He looked at Mi Yang who was already taller than himself, and when he thought of the child who played around him non-stop, he suddenly felt a lot of emotion.

Many second generations have grown up, and he is getting older and older.

Liu Bei took Mi Yang's hand and led him all the way to the entrance of the banquet.

Liu Bei looked to the west.

"I'm leaving."

Looking at it, Liu Bei suddenly uttered this raving.

This was the opening remark of his private conversation with Mi Yang just now, and now he said it again, obviously using this sentence as the concluding remark of the private conversation.

When this raving that only two people could hear reached Mi Yang's ears, Mi Yang heard many complicated meanings from Liu Bei's tone.

Reluctant, melancholy, with some expectations in it.

After Liu Bei finished saying this, he turned around and looked deeply at Mi Yang.

"I will wait for your performance in Chengdu."

After saying this, Liu Bei finally patted Mi Yang on the shoulder hard, and then he strode towards the door without waiting for Mi Yang to salute him.

When Liu Bei walked out of the lobby, as he moved further away from the lobby, a group of Habayashi soldiers continued to appear from both sides behind him.

A group of tall Habayashi soldiers guarded behind Liu Bei, completely covering his figure.

Seeing Liu Bei's figure gradually disappearing from his eyes, Mi Yang felt a sadness flowing in his heart.

Parting is always sad.

Especially when saying goodbye to his elders who have been so kind to him, this emotion is even stronger.

Liu Bei's speed was very fast, and he came outside the barracks in a short while.

At this time, outside the barracks, a group of big Han officials and thousands of Yulin troops had long been waiting.

These thousands of people were exactly what Liu Bei brought to Jingzhou from Chengdu.

After seeing Liu Bei's figure appear, thousands of people all bowed in Liu Bei's direction.

Today is the day they follow Liu Bei back to Chengdu.

Originally, they should have embarked on the journey back to Yizhou, but just before departure, an elder was still worried about his nephew.

Liu Bei specially came to the barracks before leaving, thinking of making a final pass for his nephew before leaving.

If Cai Mi Yang didn't respond well just now, what Zhang Wen faced personally would be the "love" from Liu Bei, the emperor of the Han Dynasty.

After meeting with the ministers of the Han army, Liu Bei did not follow the minister's suggestion to set foot on the emperor's car that symbolized comfort and dignity.

He ordered someone to bring a war horse.

Facing Liu Bei's order, many of the accompanying ministers showed dissuasion on their faces.

Liu Bei is a good emperor right away, but he is over sixty this year.

The road to Sichuan is rough and difficult, and it is not comfortable to enter Sichuan on a war horse. For an old man like Liu Bei, it is really not safe.

But in the face of the dissuasion of the ministers, Liu Bei ignored it and insisted on doing it.

Under Liu Bei's insistence, a Habayashi soldier soon brought a tall war horse.

Before and after Shen Jun's war horse was led to him, Liu Bei showed a look of nostalgia on his face.

Although his body was not comparable to that of his prime, but with his excellent physical fitness, Liu Bei still sat on the horse with a smooth leap.

Sitting on the horse, Liu Bei felt his sight suddenly widen.

Since he is the emperor on horseback, how can he be nostalgic for the chariot?

Liu Bei, who was in a good mood, immediately took the lead in driving ahead of thousands of people, leading them to the west.

Just after walking a certain distance, Liu Bei felt some obstruction between his thighs.

While driving the horse, Liu Bei reached out and touched the flesh between his inner thighs.

When his hand touched there, Liu Bei felt that some fat seemed to grow on his inner thigh.

After discovering this, Liu Bei couldn't help thinking back to the banquet over ten years ago, and a helpless smile appeared on his face at the right time.

Jing Sheng has turned into loess, but his thigh has been revived again.

Thinking about it carefully, although he has ridden a horse from time to time since the First World War in Hanzhong, the royal horse used for transportation is different from the royal horse used during the battle.

It has been a long time since he fought in person.

Time flies, he is already an old man, but the ambition in his heart has not been realized, this is really the saddest thing in the world.

But the current situation of Liu Bei is very different from that of him who was trapped in Xinye back then.

So after a moment of sadness, Liu Bei's heart suddenly emerged with surging pride and ambition.

Liu Bei stroked the inner thigh, as if cheering himself up and jokingly said:
"The Han Dynasty is not prosperous, how can you be resurrected?"

"Just wait for a few more years. When the Northern Expedition arrives, I will wipe you all from the land of Guanzhong."

After finishing the above words, Liu Bei raised his gaze from between his legs in satisfaction.

He looked at the rugged and difficult road not far ahead, he looked at the gloomy sky ahead as if a storm was coming, looked at Liu Bei and waved his whip resolutely.

Under Liu Bei's vigorous lashing of the whip, the pain in his crotch led him to gallop forward rapidly.

And this scene undoubtedly frightened all the Hanchen and Hanjun behind them.

Many Hanchens and Han soldiers on horseback applauded and chased Liu Bei. When they were chasing Liu Bei, they kept exclaiming:
"The road ahead is bumpy, Your Majesty ride carefully!"

Waves of exclamations spread to Liu Bei's ears along the wind, and Liu Bei couldn't help laughing wantonly after hearing these exclamations.

"With a whip in hand, you can see the scenery of the world."

"Since the road ahead is bumpy and time is waiting for me, then I should work harder to move forward.

Only death can rest! "

This is him Liu Bei!

Chang'an, wait for me for a few years.

Volume two is over.
