Chapter 146: Xuande is all Xichuan soldiers, Wancheng Infernal Affairs!
The residence of the magistrate of Yin County.
above the lobby.
Liu Chan looked at Wenpin, who was kneeling on the ground, and said with a smile, "Would your lord surrender me?
"Humph!"
Wenpin snorted softly, turned his head, and did not speak.
Sitting in the hall, Liu Chan chuckled. He was very patient with Wenpin.
"Since ancient times, it has been said that those who know the current affairs are heroes, and those who can make changes are heroes. The new fields under the general's control now belong to his human beings; in the land of Nanyang, there is only an isolated city area. There is no food and grass inside, and there are no rescuers outside. It is in danger. Why don't you general From my point of view, submitting to the King of Hanzhong and returning to the town of Jingxiang can save the family members. Fortunately, you have thought about it carefully."
"Prince, you don't need to say much, I have made up my mind, and the female family members in the family will be dealt with by you."
His most capable sons are all dead, and now that he is old, what's the point of living?
Forget it if you die, so you can keep your reputation for a lifetime.
"What Your Highness said is very true. Now that I have surrendered, I think His Highness will use it again. Why don't you do it?"
Dou Xiao was on the side, also to persuade Liu Chan to surrender.
"Mice, how dare you speak?"
As for the culprit who was arrested, Wenpin naturally didn't have a good look at him.
Dou Xiao was scolded by Wen Pin, his face was sullen, and he stopped talking.
Yu Jin brushed up his beard at the side, he originally wanted to persuade a few words, but seeing Dou Xiao's end, now that Wen Pin looked like him, he had no choice but to keep his mouth shut.
Don't ask him to come forward to speak, but Wen Pin splashed dirty water on him, it's not worth it.
If there is one less person around His Highness Kuang, then he will have more chances to make meritorious deeds.
There is always no one too much credit.
"Never mind."
Like Pound, he doesn't want to surrender now, so give Wenpin some time to think about it.
Anyway, it doesn't cost much rations to raise it, and if he changes his mind, he will have another general by his side.
"Untie the Marquis of Yanshouting, even if you don't surrender, you can have a feast together."
Left and right stepped forward to untie Wenpin, which made Wenpin confused.
Don't lock me up?
Are you afraid if I run away?
but.
When he thought about it again, a wry smile appeared on his face.
Where can he run to with a lonely family and a widow?
To put it bluntly, even if he ran away, what would be the loss for Liu Gongsi, the Crown Prince of Hanzhong?
Wen Pin was angry in his heart, but he sat down on the edge of the restaurant next to Yu Jin under the guidance of the waiter.
He didn't speak, just picked up the wine and meat and ate and drank without caring about other people's eyes.
A thousand troops are easy to get, but a general is hard to find!
In the original history, this Wenpin guarded Jiangxia County in the future. When Cao Rui came to the throne, he repelled Sun Quan's attack in Jiangxia.The history books say that he "has been in Jiangxia for decades, with great grace, and his reputation shocked the enemy's country".
If this kind of talent can be used for his own use, then Liu Gongsi will have another general who can guard a place.
"Everyone, please!"
Liu Chan picked up the wine bottle and toasted everyone in the hall.
"Thank you, Your Highness."
All the guests had a feast, while Yu Jin drank wine, but kept looking at Liu Chan and Guan Yinping behind Liu Chan.
Is this lady from the Guan family real?
Why are you clinging to His Highness all day long?
Xu Shang's wife Zhang has been in his hands for a long time, and there is no chance to send it to Liu Chan.
Difficult!
Even if you want to send a beauty to His Highness, it will not work.
As a subordinate, he has failed too much, right?
No!
Gotta find a chance!
If the Zhang family stays in his hands again, the soldiers in this army will think that he is a womanizer.
Yu Jin is not that kind of person!
Yizhou.
Chengdu.
Hanzhong Palace.
Liu Bei, king of Hanzhong, is now wearing single clothes.
Behind him, Mrs. Wu held a bamboo fan and gently fanned Liu Bei.
There were beads of sweat on her forehead at the moment.
"Husband, are you better?"
Liu Bei nodded slightly.
"much better."
It's hot, and I'm sweating all over my body when I work.
speak up.
When have you ever had such a leisurely day?
It seems that it was only when he was in Jiangdong?
"Husband, I have already had intercourse today, so I can't come again."
Liu Bei is free, and Mrs. Wu seems to be much younger.
But what about Liu Bei!
After all, she is getting older, as a wife, Mrs. Wu should warn her, and naturally she also has to warn her.
Liu Bei snorted lightly.
"Don't worry, it's good to be alone. Could it be that Madam can't feel it? Huh?"
After speaking, Liu Bei started immediately, and he was unambiguous. In the hot weather, the two fought for [-] rounds.
After a while.
Liu Bei's forehead was covered with fine sweat, he exhaled lightly, and his eyes became much clearer.
Madam Wu walked into the room in shame.
This old couple is still in the daytime, but there are maids outside, it is really embarrassing.
Call ~
After Mrs. Wu left, Liu Bei couldn't help but stepped forward to caress his lower back.
old.
old!
When he was in Xinye, Liu Bei found that he had fat on his thighs, and he shed tears with emotion.
At that time, he said to Liu Biao like this: "I used to ride a horse, and my thighs didn't have fat. Now I don't ride a horse anymore, and the flesh on my thighs has grown again. Time flies, and people are about to reach old age, but they have not made great achievements. So sad."
Now the achievements seem to be almost established.
He is the king of Hanzhong, but his energy is already exhausted.
As for the Kuangfu Han Dynasty?
At his current age, I'm afraid it won't work.
Especially when his son is so competitive, although Liu Bei is back to life, he still wants to relive the joy of husband and wife with Mrs. Wu.
After a lifetime of fighting, you can indeed come and enjoy it.
Just as Liu Bei was feeling emotional, a maid's voice came from outside the door.
"Your Majesty, the Minister ordered you to meet with the military advisor."
Liu Bei was stunned for a moment.
Xiao Zhi and Kong Ming came together to seek an audience, could it be something important?
He frowned slightly. Could it be some bad news from Jingzhou?
The reason why Liu Xuande still has the leisure to have fun with Mrs. Wu is because he has a good son.
With Prince Liu Chan around, even after a hundred years of Liu Bei, someone will inherit the foundation he laid down. Even if he did not complete the matter of helping the Han Dynasty, his good son will complete it for him.
But if something happened to the crown prince, how dare he waste his time?
Is there still something about leisure and leisure?
He simply put on his clothes and shouted to Madam Wu in the room: "Madam, change your clothes."
After a while, Liu Bei, who was already dressed in a decent princely robe, slowly walked out of Mrs. Wu's bedroom.
In the study of the Hanzhong Palace.
Fazheng and Zhuge Liang had been waiting for a while.
"Your Majesty has been a little slack in the past few days, and he hasn't come to ask about the matter of the Shangshutai in the past few days."
The monarch doesn't ask, but he believes in his ability to rectify the law and gain Liu Bei's trust. This feeling is naturally very good.
But if you trust me, I don't ask about it, and I feel uneasy.
What if it is not done well?
Zhuge Liang still looked like a feather fan and scarf. He shook his feather fan lightly, with a smile on his face, and said: "Your Majesty has fought all his life, and now he has leisure. Naturally, he needs to cultivate his body and mind. Bandit Cao is weak now, so take good care of your body." Only then can we help the Han Dynasty and return to the old capital!"
I don't see His Highness taking good care of himself?
When I went to meet him a few days ago, the king was obviously vain and obsessed with women.
Listening to what his wife said, Mrs. Wu looks pretty good these days, with a ruddy complexion.
After going back and forth, one can know why the king is in vain.
It's purely too much sex.
The king is like this now, it is not as good as when he led the army to conquer!
While the two were talking, there was a burst of hearty laughter outside the study.
"Hahaha!"
Liu Bei laughed loudly, stepped into the study room, and said, "Xiao Zhi, Kong Ming, why do you two have time to come to the palace to look for me today?"
"Your servant sees the king."
Both Fazheng and Zhuge Liang saluted Liu Bei.
"These hypocrisy will be avoided."
He smiled lightly and said, "Sit down."
In the study room, a waiter had already placed the deerskin cushions.
The two knelt and sat down one by one.
"Your Majesty, this is a report from Jingzhou, as well as a letter from His Highness."
"Oh?"
Liu Bei's eyes lit up immediately.
He was worried about his unicorn just now, thinking that there was a change in Jingzhou, but now seeing that it was written by the prince, it means that Jingzhou is fine.
Liu Bei took the letter and couldn't wait to open it to read, but seeing the two people in the room, he still held his temper.
"I don't know what happened to Jingzhou?"
Chengdu and Jingzhou are separated by thousands of miles, and it is actually not that easy to convey news.
Once back and forth, even if it is a [-]-mile express, it will take a month.
"Jingzhou Zoubao: The former general Guan Yu went to Xiangyang first, and later flooded the Seventh Army in Fancheng. Guan Ping rushed to attack Wancheng, and His Highness attacked Xinye. Now Nanyang is in my hands."
Hearing this, Liu Bei showed shock on his face, he stood up excitedly, and said, "Is that true?"
Fazheng nodded heavily.
"The report in the army is naturally true. Even what the minister said just now is nothing more than seven or eighty-eight. If the king doesn't believe it, he can see it."
Although Liu Bei knew that his second brother was invincible in the world.
My precious son is even less strategic. He was able to pacify the four counties of Nanzhong before, but now he has gone to Jingzhou, so he naturally has something to do.
But he didn't expect that this act would be too big, right?
Liu Bei personally took the Jingzhou memorial presented by Liu Chan and looked at it in his hand, the joy on his face was undisguised.
"Hahaha!"
He raised his head and laughed loudly, and said, "There is a unicorn, what is Meng De fighting with me for?"
Does Cao Mengde have such a fierce son?
I am Liu Bei!
Xuande carefully read the Jingzhou Memorial, but found that the situation in Jingzhou was not so easy at the beginning, and Fazheng also picked up recent events, such as Jiangdong's surprise attack on Jiangling, Fu Shiren's surrender, Mi Fang's crimes and meritorious service, Liu Chan signed an alliance with Jiangdong, and even Yu and Sun Quan did not say anything about their marriage.
"Fu Shiren is a veteran who has been with me for many years. I didn't expect him to be greedy for life and fear of death. He almost lost Jingzhou alone. Fortunately, Mi Zifang knew his way back and made a contribution."
The veteran who followed him betrayed him, and Liu Bei felt very uncomfortable at the moment.
Regarding the situation at that time, Liu Bei couldn't help but sweat coldly for Liu Chan.
If the prince hadn't been quick to gain wisdom at a critical moment, otherwise this Jiangling would be in danger of being overthrown!
And
He also forced Jiangdong Sun Quan to form an alliance with him.
Looking at the terms of the covenant, the smile on Liu Bei's face became even brighter.
"Jiangdong rats, they did a sneak attack again. Fortunately, the prince turned the tide at a critical moment."
Zhuge Liang also said on the side: "Your Majesty, you captured Lu Meng, the governor of Jiangdong alive, and forced Zhongmou to sign an alliance. He joined us in attacking Mengde, and also sent 75 shi of grain and grass. Originally, Jingzhou was short of food and had to rely on Shu With the 75 shi of grain and grass, Yizhou grain and grass can supply itself."
Transshipping grain and grass from Yizhou to Jingzhou, the consumption along the way is an astronomical figure.
It may not be difficult to save these grains and grass, accumulate grain and grass, and attack Guanzhong from Hanzhong in a few days.
"It's just that Yun Chang and my son made such a big commotion in Jingzhou that Meng De lost tens of thousands of troops, and even damaged the land of Nanyang County. I'm afraid he won't let it go. With the prince's military strength in Nanyang, I'm afraid they are not Meng De's opponents."
After the fun was over, Liu Bei immediately showed worry on his face.
"Why don't your majesty read His Highness's handwriting?"
Reminded by Fazhengyi, Liu Bei hurriedly took out Liu Chan's personal letter and looked at it carefully.
The first half of the chapter is all about Liu Chan missing Liu Bei and his relatives in Chengdu. The words are sincere and sincere, and Xuande's eyes are slightly red.
Most of the following pages are devoted to Liu Chan's discussion of the general trend of the world:
To sum up the content, the main points are these three.
First, regardless of the fact that the Battle of Hanzhong was won, Jingzhou is also making rapid progress, but Cao Cao’s family background is strong, and it is impossible to beat him down all at once. Times have changed, plan again!
Although Liu Bei has the strength to compete with the other two, and he is more popular than Sun Quan on the surface, he is still the weaker of the three parties.Don't say that compared with Cao Cao who dominates the north, even compared with Soochow, Liu Bei can't take advantage of it.
Perhaps Liu Bei has many world-famous civil servants and generals, but Sun Quan's strength is not inferior.
Sun Quan's own talent is very outstanding, Cao Cao once praised, "Being a child is like Sun Zhongmou!"
In addition, the lineup of civil servants and military generals under Sun Quan is also very luxurious. The two major governors, Lu Meng and Lu Xun, are all talented in civil and military affairs. Not to be underestimated.
More importantly, the 81 counties in Jiangdong occupied by Sun Quan are far richer than Yizhou in Liu Bei's hands.
After all, Yizhou is in turmoil, while Jiangdong has been stable, there has been no war, and the people live and work in peace and contentment. The foundation is naturally better than Yizhou.
After Liu Bei captured Hanzhong, although he was already very strong in strength, he was still far inferior to Cao Cao, not even half as strong as Cao Cao.
This is mainly because the economic center of the entire Han Dynasty was in the Central Plains, and the area controlled by Cao Cao not only had a large population and arable land, but also had very rich products.
Kuang marching and fighting is not only based on who has the most advisers and generals. The base of the population determines the number of soldiers that can be supported, and the amount of products also determines the length of time that the soldiers can be used.
Judging from these two aspects, Liu Bei's strength is much inferior to Cao Cao's. This is why in the later period of Zhuge Liang's Northern Expedition, women must be ordered to go to the battlefield to transport supplies. It is because the population base is insufficient to meet the consumption and needs of the war.
Liu Chan believed this, so naturally he didn't want Liu Bei to go to waste.
We are not a big advantage, others are much stronger than us.
Building walls high and accumulating food widely, this is the right way!
Of course, on the second point, Liu Chan raised it again. If we want to keep the current situation, it is essential to put enough pressure on Wei. If Liu Bei can send tens of thousands of soldiers from Xichuan to Hanzhong, he will attack Guanzhong. This posture can attract Cao Mengde's attention, restrain Wei's troops, and make him dare not put all his troops in Nanyang.
Although Yizhou needs to recuperate, it also depends on the time to recuperate.
Cao Gong successively became Wei Gong and Wei Wang, and the meaning of replacing Han has become very clear.
Obviously, Cao Cao is in the transition period from "holding the emperor to order the princes" to "representing the Han".
At this time, Cao Cao had not yet fully received the general support of the northern gentry. After Cao Pi came to the throne, he implemented the "Nine Ranks of Zhongzheng System" to win over the gentry. ".
And Liu Bei, who most resolutely held the banner of the "Han Dynasty", became the last hope of the Han faction.
During the Battle of Hanzhong and the following months, events such as the Xudu Change, Hou Yin's Rebellion, Wei's satirical plot to attack Ye, and the Sun Lang Rebellion occurred in succession in the north.
Some of these incidents were caused by unbearable Cao Cao's enlistment, and some were due to saving the Han Dynasty, but most of them echoed Liu Bei and Guan Yu from afar.
Therefore, Liu Bei really needs to rest, but it is Cao Cao who needs the most rest.
As long as Cao Cao catches his breath and everyone fights for strength, Liu Bei will never have a chance.
Big battles cannot be fought, and small battles cannot be stopped. This is what Liu Bei's side should do now.
On this last point, Liu Chan pointed out that Yizhou’s grain and grass are unsustainable. After Xichuan’s soldiers go to Hanzhong, they can be used as field soldiers to build Hanzhong.
After reading Liu Chan's hand letter, the pride on Liu Bei's face was hard to hide.
This is my good son Liu Bei!
The gold content of the pull on Mrs. Gan back then is still rising!
"Xiao Zhi, Kong Ming, take a look at the prince's letter."
Liu Bei handed the letter to Zhuge Liang and Fazheng. Seeing the look on Liu Bei's face, they naturally knew that he was in a good mood.
What did His Highness write in his heart?
Kong Ming was curious.
The two quickly read the contents of the letter, and there was surprise in their eyes. With a smile on his face, Fazheng nodded and said, "Your Highness has won many battles in Jingzhou, but there is no thought of underestimating the enemy in his heart. Be cautious, your views on the overall situation of the world are still so sharp."
It is indeed an excellent quality to be defeated in all battles and still not be discouraged.
But it is even more rare to be victorious in every battle without arrogance.
It's not that many people can't bear the defeat, but after winning the battle, arrogance arises in their hearts, and they look down on the heroes of the world, and the final end is naturally bleak.
Zhuge Kongming swayed his feather fan lightly, his eyes flickering.
To be honest, he even wanted to go to Jingzhou to assist His Highness to compete with King Wei!
Chengdu has Fa Zheng, why should he Zhuge Kongming?
Originally, Liu Bei asked Guan Yu to launch the Battle of Xiangfan, but he disagreed.
The war continues and the power of the people is withered. Is this a strategy for long-term stability?
You should rest with the people, train your soldiers, unify your thinking, develop the economy, and farm the fields to store food, so that you will have the strength to compete with Mengde in the future.
In addition, Jingzhou is surrounded by Sun Quan and Cao Cao on both sides. What if you go to attack Xiangfan on the one hand, and Sun Quan comes to attack on the other?
In fact.
It's really the same as Zhuge Liang thought.
The only difference was that His Highness went to Jingzhou to turn the tide at the critical moment, otherwise, if Jiangling was occupied by Sun Quan, then his worries would become a reality.
"His Majesty's plan, word by word, the king can use this plan!"
The reason why the troops were originally withdrawn from Hanzhong was because of insufficient food and grass. Now Jingzhou does not need Yizhou to supply food, and even Sun Quan can send some food and grass to Yizhou. It is still possible to send tens of thousands of troops to Hanzhong.
The people of Yizhou can still hold on!
Liu Bei also nodded.
"My son's plan is very good. Tomorrow, the generals will be summoned in the palace to prepare for the Northern Expedition to Guanzhong."
Although his main purpose of going to Hanzhong was not for the Northern Expedition to Guanzhong, but to involve Wei's troops, this posture must be done.
Now in Chengdu, I am afraid that Wei Guo and Jiangdong have a lot of eyeliners.
Besides
If you have enough posture, maybe when Guanzhong is in chaos, maybe you will really find a chance for him!
"Your Majesty is wise?"
wise?
It's just a good son.
Liu Bei patted his stomach where the abdominal muscles had disappeared, feeling a little melancholy in his heart.
He, Liu Xuande, is also busy!
I thought this leisurely life could last a little longer.
But a life of toil is a life of toil.
Let's cheer up and strive to realize the ambition in our hearts!
Although the son is powerful, how can he lose to his son as an old man?
Set an example!
Liu Bei's eyes flickered, and the domineering arrogance that looked down on the world before was also exuded from his body.
Let Gu finally shine, paving the way for Adou.
It would be even better if he could realize his ambition and see the Sanxing man with his own eyes in his lifetime!
Chengdu.
Prince's mansion.
Zhang Peilan is doing her makeup in front of the mirror.
I saw her jet-black long hair sliding between her snow-white fingers, coiled into a bun, wandering in front of the mirror, full of all kinds of amorous feelings.
"Yu Niang, is sister pretty?"
Zhang Peiyu, a little girl carved in pink and jade, nodded hurriedly.
"Auntie looks great!"
She resisted reaching out to touch Zhang Peilan's hair, and flung herself on Zhang Peilan coquettishly, and said softly and childishly: "Yu Niang should be as good-looking as Sister."
Lan Niang's face was full of smiles, she hugged Yuniang up, and said: "When you grow up, sister, I will dress you up, now, let sister make two small braids for you."
Hearing this, Zhang Peiyu nodded her head like pounding onions.
She sat obediently on Zhang Peilan's body, allowing Zhang Peilan to pick up her hair in strands.
While Zhang Peilan was braiding her younger sister's hair, a maid's voice came from outside the door.
"Girl, the envoy from Jingzhou is here, it seems that His Highness sent a message!"
Your Highness?
Zhang Peilan's whole body was shocked, and her heartbeat accelerated unconsciously at this moment.
Has His Highness delivered a letter?
Poor god.
In Chengdu, she misses Liu Chan and is almost sick of lovesickness, otherwise she wouldn't come to the prince's mansion often.
In the backyard of this mansion, she directly bought a boudoir. Outside the small courtyard of the boudoir, she planted some flowers and plants. She was either weaving clothes every day or missing her husband.
Now that she heard that Liu Chan had sent a letter, she didn't care about braiding Zhang Peiyu's hair anymore, she put herself down, and walked out of the room in a hurry.
Zhang Peiyu was left with a confused face.
She had only braided half of her hair, and now she was facing the bronze mirror, seeing her funny appearance, her mouth was flattened, and tears almost fell down.
Sister is dressed so beautifully, but she made me look like this.
However, at this moment, Zhang Peilan only had a good husband in her heart, so how could she care about her good sister?
Soon, outside the gate of the inner courtyard, Zhang Peilan saw the envoy from Jingzhou.
"The villain has seen the girl."
When the messenger saw Zhang Peilan, he quickly bowed his head and saluted.
Zhang Peilan nodded slightly.
"Has your Highness sent a letter?"
The messenger nodded slightly, holding a package in both hands at the moment.
The objects wrapped in the Shu brocade looked quite heavy.
"That's all."
Zhang Peilan was panting heavily with the maid accompanying her. She had just trotted all the way and caught up with Zhang Peilan. At this moment, she was sweating, and stepped forward to take the package.
"Thank you for your hard work, this is my heart."
Do it up and down to buy people's hearts.
Don't look at the envoy's low status, but no matter how low the status is, he can't offend him.
Thanks to him, he will naturally speak good things about her in the future.
Another maid handed a brocade bag to the messenger.
"Girl, you can't do it."
Although the emissary was refusing, he took the brocade bag without any hesitation.
"With a little thought, go and eat some good wine and good food."
"Thank you girl."
The lady of the Zhang family will become a princess in the future.
It's no wonder that she can make a marriage contract with His Highness and treat people of low status like him so kindly. If she doesn't become a crown princess, who will?
After the messenger left, Zhang Peilan quickly took the package in her hand.
She was weighing the weight, and the corners of her lips were slightly raised on her beautiful face.
What exactly did His Highness give me?
She was looking forward to it.
Quickly returning to the inner courtyard room, Zhang Peilan opened the package.
In the package, there was a book made of Zuo Bo's paper, which was a thick volume. Besides the book, there was also a golden hairpin, silver bracelet, and a dozen letters in the package.
Seeing these objects, Zhang Peilan was extremely happy, and the smile on her face never stopped.
The maid beside Zhang Peilan who grew up with Zhang Peilan also jokingly said: "Miss, she hasn't smiled as much as she does today in the past month."
Zhang Peilan glanced at the maid angrily, but in a blink of an eye, joy and love filled her heart.
She gently opened the book, and her eyes lit up even more.
I saw that there were leaves that were made into specimens in this book, which was very beautiful.
After the leaves of various colors become specimens, they have their own beauty.
Zhang Peilan was moved, she picked up the top letter among those letters, which had the four big characters of "Lan Niang's personal letter" written on it, and Zhang Peilan gently opened the letter to read.
I saw in the letter:
I haven't seen you for a long time, and I miss you very much. There are so many things in the world, and there are three things I love.Sun, Moon and Qing.The sun is the morning, the moon is the evening, and the Qing is the morning and evening.
It's more like a love letter than a letter.
For Zhang Peilan, a childhood sweetheart, Liu Chan naturally has feelings in his heart.
As the first to get acquainted with him, and also the first to tell each other from heart to heart, it turned out that Yinping was with him day and night, and Guan Yinping and Princess Zhurong both had intercourse, but Zhang Peilan did not.
Besides, whether he was in Nanzhong, or Jingzhou, even in Chengdu, he still spent more time with Guan Yinping.
In Liu Chan's heart, he still owed Zhang Peilan a little.
Whether it's specimens, hairpins, bracelets, or a dozen letters, they are all for the purpose of dispelling the boredom in Zhang Peilan's heart.
really.
After reading a letter, Zhang Peilan's eyes were already moved, she murmured to herself: "Mr. Lang thinks of me so much, loves me so much, how can I blame him?"
Although she didn't see Liu Chan face to face, the pleasure and excitement in Zhang Peilan's heart were beyond words.
"Sister, braid your hair."
Zhang Peiyu walked forward with her mouth pouted, her braid was half braided, and she destroyed it, which looked a little funny at the moment.
"Yu Niang is good, after my sister reads the letter, I will make it up for you."
letter?
Zhang Peiyu looked at the appearance of her elder sister's soul being taken away, and asked, "Is it a letter from Brother Chan?"
Zhang Peilan nodded.
"It's his."
snort!
Zhang Peiyu hummed and chirped immediately.
Brother Chan is too bad, he didn't take her out to play before, but now he comes to grab sister from me!
No.
When brother Chan comes back, I must make him look good.
Ah!
Just climb onto his bed and scare him!
Wancheng.
General's House.
Guan Ping held the letter in his hand, and after he read the contents of the letter, his face showed regret.
"Why are you back? It's not good to stay with His Highness?"
He is now the eldest brother-in-law of His Highness, as long as he is not dead, and by virtue of his status, he does not need much credit to be able to sit on the position of general.
What is your Zong Ziqing?
Don't stay by His Highness's side to get familiar, and come to Wancheng?
"Didn't Your Highness say in the letter that I will use time to lure Xu Huang to lead the Wei army over, and then the general will ambush to one side and defeat Xu Huang. At that time, not only will Nanyang be completely saved, but Yingchuan will also be marched. , Threats have all become possible."
Use room?
This room is so useful?
"No matter how much time you spend, it's better to stay by His Highness's side."
His brother-in-law is too capable, as long as he can be reused, what credit will he not have?
It seems that since he lectured in the martial arts hall, he has quickly climbed to the positions of general, general, and lieutenant, and has become the middle level of the army.
It is conceivable that as long as His Highness gives them a chance, it is not impossible to become a leading general.
Your Highness has the most chances to make meritorious service, so why use the time?
Can it be successful?
"Your Highness has already given me the right to do things cheaply, and I ask General Guan to cooperate."
"That's all."
Guan Ping sighed and said, "Since that's the case, let's do what you say. How do you want me to cooperate?"
Zong Ziqing showed a smile on his face, and said: "General, please lead the troops of the headquarters and go to Bowangpo to garrison. I will guard Wancheng!"
Ok?
Guan Ping frowned slightly.
If he left Wancheng and asked Zong Ziqing to guard him, what should he do if he betrayed him?
The hesitation on Guan Ping's face was not concealed.
Zong Ziqing naturally knew the worries in Guan Ping's heart, he said: "Don't worry, general, after I met His Highness in Xinye and Champion, I have no second thoughts. If you want to confuse Xu Huang, the general can move my family to Xinye, so that Be a proton."
Guan Ping smiled lightly, and he said: "Since His Highness can give you the right to do things cheaply, he believes in you. I believe in His Highness's vision, and I also believe in Ziqing's loyalty."
He got up from the tiger skin cushion and said: "Your Highness is not suspicious of employing people, and I am naturally the same. Three days later, I will raise my troops and go to Bowangpo. The matter of Wancheng will be left to Ziqing."
"Thank you, General, for your trust!"
Zong Ziqing was moved.
What moved me was that both Liu Chan and Guan Ping were willing to trust him.
Three days later.
If his Zong Ziqing has not changed his mind, he will make great contributions by dedicating Wancheng to Xu Huang!
The dream of two thousand stone official positions can also be realized.
But
Even if Wancheng is sacrificed, will Xu Huang be able to defend Wancheng?
Now the hearts of the scholars of the Nanyang gentry are all concentrated on Liu Gongsi, the crown prince of Hanzhong.
Since the Nanyang gentry supported him, the hearts of the Nanyang people naturally rested with His Highness.
Your Highness can use Nanyang scholars, Nanyang people, Nanyang soldiers, and Nanyang material resources.
Even if he defended and sacrificed Wancheng, so what?
In the end, Wancheng is not safe, so is he going to flee to Xudu?
When he arrived in Xudu, did he still have credit for dedicating the city?
And
After all, he is from Nanyang, and his roots are in Nanyang. After going to Xudu, isn't he a rootless duck?
now
His Zong Ziqing also has no other choice.
In this life, he is determined to be His Highness's minion!
that day.
The news that Guan Ping was going to move his army to Bowangpo and was going to enter Ye County spread like wildfire in the city.
Zong Ziqing immediately wrote a letter and ordered Xingye to send it to Ye County.
In Wancheng, a big net has been slowly opened, waiting for the arrival of the prey Xu Huang!
Ye County.
Camp outside the city.
in the school field.
Xu Huang stood on the school grounds, the scorching sun hung high, the sun was blazing, and the scorching heat wave hit his face.He was shirtless, and sweat dripped from his forehead, soaking his hair.At this moment, he was holding the long knife in his hands tightly with both hands, his eyes were dignified and firm.
Huhuhu~
The long knife in his hand was danced vigorously by him.
There was a fierce aura between the knife and the gesture.He swung his blade like a gust of wind, as fast as lightning.Every time you swing the knife, there is a tension of power, the light of the knife is shining, and the shadow of the knife is faint.
He has a nimble figure and strong footsteps. He sometimes rushes forward, sometimes retreats, sometimes turns left, and sometimes moves right.The body is strong and flexible, like a cheetah galloping on the grassland.
The heat of the sun passed through his body, and sweat flowed continuously, but he did not stop, one knife after another, and every swing was full of strength and determination.His movements are smooth and precise, each strike hits the target exactly, as if anticipating his opponent's every move.
While Xu Huang was practicing swordsmanship in the school field, Sima Yi walked slowly to the edge of the school field with a letter in his hand.
"The general is brave!"
He looked at the school field for a while, with a look of admiration on his face.
"How? Do you want to come up and make gestures with me?"
Compete with you?
Sima Yi quickly waved his hand and refused.
"The general's sword skills are unparalleled. If I go up, I'm afraid I won't even be able to resist the general in one round."
"Hahaha~"
Xu Huang laughed out loud, obviously Sima Yi's flattery was very helpful to him.
"Zhongda came in a hurry, but is there something wrong?"
Xu Huang walked down the school field, and the soldiers immediately handed him a wet towel. He casually wiped off the sweat stains on his body, and then put on a single shirt.
"There is news from Wancheng."
Wancheng?
Xu Huang's eyes lit up.
"What's the news?"
Sima Yi handed the letter to Xu Huang.
"After the general read it, he understood it in his heart."
After receiving the letter from Sima Yi, Xu Huang looked at it carefully.
He had only read half of the letter, and his face was filled with ecstasy.
"This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!"
He calculated the time, three days later, in fact, it was almost October, and the time agreed with Jiang Dong, a few days had passed.
Now that he started a war in Nanyang, if Sun Zhongmou of Jiangdong followed behind, Guan Yunchang and Liu Gongsi, the crown prince of Hanzhong, would definitely be devastated!
"That Zong Ziqing is really a character. As a descendant, he can still be reused by Guan Ping. It's amazing, amazing."
The expression on Sima Yi's face was always calm.
When Xu Huang saw it, he thought it was fraudulent, and hesitated for a while.
"Did Zhong Da see something?"
He thought about it carefully, too.
Can Zong Ziqing gain Guan Ping's trust once he descends?
Fraud!
Absolutely fraudulent!
Sima Yi shook his head and said: "I don't know if Zong Ziqing is cheating, but Guan Ping is willing to trust him, and it is not without reason. The daughter of the Zong family married Guan Ping, and the two of them are already brothers-in-law. With such a relationship, it makes sense to hand over Wancheng to him."
so ah!
Xu Huang thought about it and nodded.
"So Zhongda thinks this plan is feasible?"
Is this plan feasible?
Sima Yi shook his head.
"There is no news from Jiangdong, we must not send troops!"
His eyes flickered, and he said: "The urgent report from Hefei just came. Zhongmou attacked Hefei seven days ago, but failed. Now even if he transfers the army and prepares to use troops against Jingzhou, it may take time. If you and I can do it in two days The troops are dispatched, and when Guan Yunchang and Liu Gongsi, the Prince of Hanzhong, will join forces in Nanyang, do you have the confidence to win?"
Xu Huang's soldiers and horses are not enough for Guan Yunchang's now.
Plus
That Guan Yunchang was brave, Xu Huang met him, but he didn't have the confidence to win.
Liu Gongsi, the Prince of Hanzhong, is extremely cunning. Now that he is marching into the army, even if Zong Ziqing sincerely surrenders, after they take Wancheng, can they hold Wancheng?
It is easy to capture Wancheng, but how difficult it is to defend Wancheng!
Nanyang is now in the hands of Jingzhou, if it is trapped in Wancheng, wouldn't it be necessary for the king to send reinforcements to rescue it?
He must let Jiangdong lure Nanyang's reinforcements away before he can send troops!
After thinking about this clearly, the troubles in Xu Huang's heart were swept away.
"Since that's the case, then don't worry. I've been practicing soldiers for the past few days. When Zhong Da says it's time to attack, I'll attack again!"
With a counselor by his side, Xu Huang entrusted Sima Yi with the heavy responsibility of thinking.
As for him?
Just go to war!
At this moment, in the direction of Jiangxia County, Lu Xun is already outside Zhouling City.
As he looked at the small city, his eyes gradually flickered.
Behind him, the dark Jiangdong soldiers began to gather.
Control the beacon towers along the road, first go down to Zhouling, then go up along the river, and capture Jiangling with lightning speed!
What I lost in Jiangling, now I, Lu Boyan, want to get it back with interest!
A person can lose once, twice, but not the third time!
He, Lu Boyan, will not lose to Liu Gongsi again.
Absolutely not!

(End of this chapter)
The residence of the magistrate of Yin County.
above the lobby.
Liu Chan looked at Wenpin, who was kneeling on the ground, and said with a smile, "Would your lord surrender me?
"Humph!"
Wenpin snorted softly, turned his head, and did not speak.
Sitting in the hall, Liu Chan chuckled. He was very patient with Wenpin.
"Since ancient times, it has been said that those who know the current affairs are heroes, and those who can make changes are heroes. The new fields under the general's control now belong to his human beings; in the land of Nanyang, there is only an isolated city area. There is no food and grass inside, and there are no rescuers outside. It is in danger. Why don't you general From my point of view, submitting to the King of Hanzhong and returning to the town of Jingxiang can save the family members. Fortunately, you have thought about it carefully."
"Prince, you don't need to say much, I have made up my mind, and the female family members in the family will be dealt with by you."
His most capable sons are all dead, and now that he is old, what's the point of living?
Forget it if you die, so you can keep your reputation for a lifetime.
"What Your Highness said is very true. Now that I have surrendered, I think His Highness will use it again. Why don't you do it?"
Dou Xiao was on the side, also to persuade Liu Chan to surrender.
"Mice, how dare you speak?"
As for the culprit who was arrested, Wenpin naturally didn't have a good look at him.
Dou Xiao was scolded by Wen Pin, his face was sullen, and he stopped talking.
Yu Jin brushed up his beard at the side, he originally wanted to persuade a few words, but seeing Dou Xiao's end, now that Wen Pin looked like him, he had no choice but to keep his mouth shut.
Don't ask him to come forward to speak, but Wen Pin splashed dirty water on him, it's not worth it.
If there is one less person around His Highness Kuang, then he will have more chances to make meritorious deeds.
There is always no one too much credit.
"Never mind."
Like Pound, he doesn't want to surrender now, so give Wenpin some time to think about it.
Anyway, it doesn't cost much rations to raise it, and if he changes his mind, he will have another general by his side.
"Untie the Marquis of Yanshouting, even if you don't surrender, you can have a feast together."
Left and right stepped forward to untie Wenpin, which made Wenpin confused.
Don't lock me up?
Are you afraid if I run away?
but.
When he thought about it again, a wry smile appeared on his face.
Where can he run to with a lonely family and a widow?
To put it bluntly, even if he ran away, what would be the loss for Liu Gongsi, the Crown Prince of Hanzhong?
Wen Pin was angry in his heart, but he sat down on the edge of the restaurant next to Yu Jin under the guidance of the waiter.
He didn't speak, just picked up the wine and meat and ate and drank without caring about other people's eyes.
A thousand troops are easy to get, but a general is hard to find!
In the original history, this Wenpin guarded Jiangxia County in the future. When Cao Rui came to the throne, he repelled Sun Quan's attack in Jiangxia.The history books say that he "has been in Jiangxia for decades, with great grace, and his reputation shocked the enemy's country".
If this kind of talent can be used for his own use, then Liu Gongsi will have another general who can guard a place.
"Everyone, please!"
Liu Chan picked up the wine bottle and toasted everyone in the hall.
"Thank you, Your Highness."
All the guests had a feast, while Yu Jin drank wine, but kept looking at Liu Chan and Guan Yinping behind Liu Chan.
Is this lady from the Guan family real?
Why are you clinging to His Highness all day long?
Xu Shang's wife Zhang has been in his hands for a long time, and there is no chance to send it to Liu Chan.
Difficult!
Even if you want to send a beauty to His Highness, it will not work.
As a subordinate, he has failed too much, right?
No!
Gotta find a chance!
If the Zhang family stays in his hands again, the soldiers in this army will think that he is a womanizer.
Yu Jin is not that kind of person!
Yizhou.
Chengdu.
Hanzhong Palace.
Liu Bei, king of Hanzhong, is now wearing single clothes.
Behind him, Mrs. Wu held a bamboo fan and gently fanned Liu Bei.
There were beads of sweat on her forehead at the moment.
"Husband, are you better?"
Liu Bei nodded slightly.
"much better."
It's hot, and I'm sweating all over my body when I work.
speak up.
When have you ever had such a leisurely day?
It seems that it was only when he was in Jiangdong?
"Husband, I have already had intercourse today, so I can't come again."
Liu Bei is free, and Mrs. Wu seems to be much younger.
But what about Liu Bei!
After all, she is getting older, as a wife, Mrs. Wu should warn her, and naturally she also has to warn her.
Liu Bei snorted lightly.
"Don't worry, it's good to be alone. Could it be that Madam can't feel it? Huh?"
After speaking, Liu Bei started immediately, and he was unambiguous. In the hot weather, the two fought for [-] rounds.
After a while.
Liu Bei's forehead was covered with fine sweat, he exhaled lightly, and his eyes became much clearer.
Madam Wu walked into the room in shame.
This old couple is still in the daytime, but there are maids outside, it is really embarrassing.
Call ~
After Mrs. Wu left, Liu Bei couldn't help but stepped forward to caress his lower back.
old.
old!
When he was in Xinye, Liu Bei found that he had fat on his thighs, and he shed tears with emotion.
At that time, he said to Liu Biao like this: "I used to ride a horse, and my thighs didn't have fat. Now I don't ride a horse anymore, and the flesh on my thighs has grown again. Time flies, and people are about to reach old age, but they have not made great achievements. So sad."
Now the achievements seem to be almost established.
He is the king of Hanzhong, but his energy is already exhausted.
As for the Kuangfu Han Dynasty?
At his current age, I'm afraid it won't work.
Especially when his son is so competitive, although Liu Bei is back to life, he still wants to relive the joy of husband and wife with Mrs. Wu.
After a lifetime of fighting, you can indeed come and enjoy it.
Just as Liu Bei was feeling emotional, a maid's voice came from outside the door.
"Your Majesty, the Minister ordered you to meet with the military advisor."
Liu Bei was stunned for a moment.
Xiao Zhi and Kong Ming came together to seek an audience, could it be something important?
He frowned slightly. Could it be some bad news from Jingzhou?
The reason why Liu Xuande still has the leisure to have fun with Mrs. Wu is because he has a good son.
With Prince Liu Chan around, even after a hundred years of Liu Bei, someone will inherit the foundation he laid down. Even if he did not complete the matter of helping the Han Dynasty, his good son will complete it for him.
But if something happened to the crown prince, how dare he waste his time?
Is there still something about leisure and leisure?
He simply put on his clothes and shouted to Madam Wu in the room: "Madam, change your clothes."
After a while, Liu Bei, who was already dressed in a decent princely robe, slowly walked out of Mrs. Wu's bedroom.
In the study of the Hanzhong Palace.
Fazheng and Zhuge Liang had been waiting for a while.
"Your Majesty has been a little slack in the past few days, and he hasn't come to ask about the matter of the Shangshutai in the past few days."
The monarch doesn't ask, but he believes in his ability to rectify the law and gain Liu Bei's trust. This feeling is naturally very good.
But if you trust me, I don't ask about it, and I feel uneasy.
What if it is not done well?
Zhuge Liang still looked like a feather fan and scarf. He shook his feather fan lightly, with a smile on his face, and said: "Your Majesty has fought all his life, and now he has leisure. Naturally, he needs to cultivate his body and mind. Bandit Cao is weak now, so take good care of your body." Only then can we help the Han Dynasty and return to the old capital!"
I don't see His Highness taking good care of himself?
When I went to meet him a few days ago, the king was obviously vain and obsessed with women.
Listening to what his wife said, Mrs. Wu looks pretty good these days, with a ruddy complexion.
After going back and forth, one can know why the king is in vain.
It's purely too much sex.
The king is like this now, it is not as good as when he led the army to conquer!
While the two were talking, there was a burst of hearty laughter outside the study.
"Hahaha!"
Liu Bei laughed loudly, stepped into the study room, and said, "Xiao Zhi, Kong Ming, why do you two have time to come to the palace to look for me today?"
"Your servant sees the king."
Both Fazheng and Zhuge Liang saluted Liu Bei.
"These hypocrisy will be avoided."
He smiled lightly and said, "Sit down."
In the study room, a waiter had already placed the deerskin cushions.
The two knelt and sat down one by one.
"Your Majesty, this is a report from Jingzhou, as well as a letter from His Highness."
"Oh?"
Liu Bei's eyes lit up immediately.
He was worried about his unicorn just now, thinking that there was a change in Jingzhou, but now seeing that it was written by the prince, it means that Jingzhou is fine.
Liu Bei took the letter and couldn't wait to open it to read, but seeing the two people in the room, he still held his temper.
"I don't know what happened to Jingzhou?"
Chengdu and Jingzhou are separated by thousands of miles, and it is actually not that easy to convey news.
Once back and forth, even if it is a [-]-mile express, it will take a month.
"Jingzhou Zoubao: The former general Guan Yu went to Xiangyang first, and later flooded the Seventh Army in Fancheng. Guan Ping rushed to attack Wancheng, and His Highness attacked Xinye. Now Nanyang is in my hands."
Hearing this, Liu Bei showed shock on his face, he stood up excitedly, and said, "Is that true?"
Fazheng nodded heavily.
"The report in the army is naturally true. Even what the minister said just now is nothing more than seven or eighty-eight. If the king doesn't believe it, he can see it."
Although Liu Bei knew that his second brother was invincible in the world.
My precious son is even less strategic. He was able to pacify the four counties of Nanzhong before, but now he has gone to Jingzhou, so he naturally has something to do.
But he didn't expect that this act would be too big, right?
Liu Bei personally took the Jingzhou memorial presented by Liu Chan and looked at it in his hand, the joy on his face was undisguised.
"Hahaha!"
He raised his head and laughed loudly, and said, "There is a unicorn, what is Meng De fighting with me for?"
Does Cao Mengde have such a fierce son?
I am Liu Bei!
Xuande carefully read the Jingzhou Memorial, but found that the situation in Jingzhou was not so easy at the beginning, and Fazheng also picked up recent events, such as Jiangdong's surprise attack on Jiangling, Fu Shiren's surrender, Mi Fang's crimes and meritorious service, Liu Chan signed an alliance with Jiangdong, and even Yu and Sun Quan did not say anything about their marriage.
"Fu Shiren is a veteran who has been with me for many years. I didn't expect him to be greedy for life and fear of death. He almost lost Jingzhou alone. Fortunately, Mi Zifang knew his way back and made a contribution."
The veteran who followed him betrayed him, and Liu Bei felt very uncomfortable at the moment.
Regarding the situation at that time, Liu Bei couldn't help but sweat coldly for Liu Chan.
If the prince hadn't been quick to gain wisdom at a critical moment, otherwise this Jiangling would be in danger of being overthrown!
And
He also forced Jiangdong Sun Quan to form an alliance with him.
Looking at the terms of the covenant, the smile on Liu Bei's face became even brighter.
"Jiangdong rats, they did a sneak attack again. Fortunately, the prince turned the tide at a critical moment."
Zhuge Liang also said on the side: "Your Majesty, you captured Lu Meng, the governor of Jiangdong alive, and forced Zhongmou to sign an alliance. He joined us in attacking Mengde, and also sent 75 shi of grain and grass. Originally, Jingzhou was short of food and had to rely on Shu With the 75 shi of grain and grass, Yizhou grain and grass can supply itself."
Transshipping grain and grass from Yizhou to Jingzhou, the consumption along the way is an astronomical figure.
It may not be difficult to save these grains and grass, accumulate grain and grass, and attack Guanzhong from Hanzhong in a few days.
"It's just that Yun Chang and my son made such a big commotion in Jingzhou that Meng De lost tens of thousands of troops, and even damaged the land of Nanyang County. I'm afraid he won't let it go. With the prince's military strength in Nanyang, I'm afraid they are not Meng De's opponents."
After the fun was over, Liu Bei immediately showed worry on his face.
"Why don't your majesty read His Highness's handwriting?"
Reminded by Fazhengyi, Liu Bei hurriedly took out Liu Chan's personal letter and looked at it carefully.
The first half of the chapter is all about Liu Chan missing Liu Bei and his relatives in Chengdu. The words are sincere and sincere, and Xuande's eyes are slightly red.
Most of the following pages are devoted to Liu Chan's discussion of the general trend of the world:
To sum up the content, the main points are these three.
First, regardless of the fact that the Battle of Hanzhong was won, Jingzhou is also making rapid progress, but Cao Cao’s family background is strong, and it is impossible to beat him down all at once. Times have changed, plan again!
Although Liu Bei has the strength to compete with the other two, and he is more popular than Sun Quan on the surface, he is still the weaker of the three parties.Don't say that compared with Cao Cao who dominates the north, even compared with Soochow, Liu Bei can't take advantage of it.
Perhaps Liu Bei has many world-famous civil servants and generals, but Sun Quan's strength is not inferior.
Sun Quan's own talent is very outstanding, Cao Cao once praised, "Being a child is like Sun Zhongmou!"
In addition, the lineup of civil servants and military generals under Sun Quan is also very luxurious. The two major governors, Lu Meng and Lu Xun, are all talented in civil and military affairs. Not to be underestimated.
More importantly, the 81 counties in Jiangdong occupied by Sun Quan are far richer than Yizhou in Liu Bei's hands.
After all, Yizhou is in turmoil, while Jiangdong has been stable, there has been no war, and the people live and work in peace and contentment. The foundation is naturally better than Yizhou.
After Liu Bei captured Hanzhong, although he was already very strong in strength, he was still far inferior to Cao Cao, not even half as strong as Cao Cao.
This is mainly because the economic center of the entire Han Dynasty was in the Central Plains, and the area controlled by Cao Cao not only had a large population and arable land, but also had very rich products.
Kuang marching and fighting is not only based on who has the most advisers and generals. The base of the population determines the number of soldiers that can be supported, and the amount of products also determines the length of time that the soldiers can be used.
Judging from these two aspects, Liu Bei's strength is much inferior to Cao Cao's. This is why in the later period of Zhuge Liang's Northern Expedition, women must be ordered to go to the battlefield to transport supplies. It is because the population base is insufficient to meet the consumption and needs of the war.
Liu Chan believed this, so naturally he didn't want Liu Bei to go to waste.
We are not a big advantage, others are much stronger than us.
Building walls high and accumulating food widely, this is the right way!
Of course, on the second point, Liu Chan raised it again. If we want to keep the current situation, it is essential to put enough pressure on Wei. If Liu Bei can send tens of thousands of soldiers from Xichuan to Hanzhong, he will attack Guanzhong. This posture can attract Cao Mengde's attention, restrain Wei's troops, and make him dare not put all his troops in Nanyang.
Although Yizhou needs to recuperate, it also depends on the time to recuperate.
Cao Gong successively became Wei Gong and Wei Wang, and the meaning of replacing Han has become very clear.
Obviously, Cao Cao is in the transition period from "holding the emperor to order the princes" to "representing the Han".
At this time, Cao Cao had not yet fully received the general support of the northern gentry. After Cao Pi came to the throne, he implemented the "Nine Ranks of Zhongzheng System" to win over the gentry. ".
And Liu Bei, who most resolutely held the banner of the "Han Dynasty", became the last hope of the Han faction.
During the Battle of Hanzhong and the following months, events such as the Xudu Change, Hou Yin's Rebellion, Wei's satirical plot to attack Ye, and the Sun Lang Rebellion occurred in succession in the north.
Some of these incidents were caused by unbearable Cao Cao's enlistment, and some were due to saving the Han Dynasty, but most of them echoed Liu Bei and Guan Yu from afar.
Therefore, Liu Bei really needs to rest, but it is Cao Cao who needs the most rest.
As long as Cao Cao catches his breath and everyone fights for strength, Liu Bei will never have a chance.
Big battles cannot be fought, and small battles cannot be stopped. This is what Liu Bei's side should do now.
On this last point, Liu Chan pointed out that Yizhou’s grain and grass are unsustainable. After Xichuan’s soldiers go to Hanzhong, they can be used as field soldiers to build Hanzhong.
After reading Liu Chan's hand letter, the pride on Liu Bei's face was hard to hide.
This is my good son Liu Bei!
The gold content of the pull on Mrs. Gan back then is still rising!
"Xiao Zhi, Kong Ming, take a look at the prince's letter."
Liu Bei handed the letter to Zhuge Liang and Fazheng. Seeing the look on Liu Bei's face, they naturally knew that he was in a good mood.
What did His Highness write in his heart?
Kong Ming was curious.
The two quickly read the contents of the letter, and there was surprise in their eyes. With a smile on his face, Fazheng nodded and said, "Your Highness has won many battles in Jingzhou, but there is no thought of underestimating the enemy in his heart. Be cautious, your views on the overall situation of the world are still so sharp."
It is indeed an excellent quality to be defeated in all battles and still not be discouraged.
But it is even more rare to be victorious in every battle without arrogance.
It's not that many people can't bear the defeat, but after winning the battle, arrogance arises in their hearts, and they look down on the heroes of the world, and the final end is naturally bleak.
Zhuge Kongming swayed his feather fan lightly, his eyes flickering.
To be honest, he even wanted to go to Jingzhou to assist His Highness to compete with King Wei!
Chengdu has Fa Zheng, why should he Zhuge Kongming?
Originally, Liu Bei asked Guan Yu to launch the Battle of Xiangfan, but he disagreed.
The war continues and the power of the people is withered. Is this a strategy for long-term stability?
You should rest with the people, train your soldiers, unify your thinking, develop the economy, and farm the fields to store food, so that you will have the strength to compete with Mengde in the future.
In addition, Jingzhou is surrounded by Sun Quan and Cao Cao on both sides. What if you go to attack Xiangfan on the one hand, and Sun Quan comes to attack on the other?
In fact.
It's really the same as Zhuge Liang thought.
The only difference was that His Highness went to Jingzhou to turn the tide at the critical moment, otherwise, if Jiangling was occupied by Sun Quan, then his worries would become a reality.
"His Majesty's plan, word by word, the king can use this plan!"
The reason why the troops were originally withdrawn from Hanzhong was because of insufficient food and grass. Now Jingzhou does not need Yizhou to supply food, and even Sun Quan can send some food and grass to Yizhou. It is still possible to send tens of thousands of troops to Hanzhong.
The people of Yizhou can still hold on!
Liu Bei also nodded.
"My son's plan is very good. Tomorrow, the generals will be summoned in the palace to prepare for the Northern Expedition to Guanzhong."
Although his main purpose of going to Hanzhong was not for the Northern Expedition to Guanzhong, but to involve Wei's troops, this posture must be done.
Now in Chengdu, I am afraid that Wei Guo and Jiangdong have a lot of eyeliners.
Besides
If you have enough posture, maybe when Guanzhong is in chaos, maybe you will really find a chance for him!
"Your Majesty is wise?"
wise?
It's just a good son.
Liu Bei patted his stomach where the abdominal muscles had disappeared, feeling a little melancholy in his heart.
He, Liu Xuande, is also busy!
I thought this leisurely life could last a little longer.
But a life of toil is a life of toil.
Let's cheer up and strive to realize the ambition in our hearts!
Although the son is powerful, how can he lose to his son as an old man?
Set an example!
Liu Bei's eyes flickered, and the domineering arrogance that looked down on the world before was also exuded from his body.
Let Gu finally shine, paving the way for Adou.
It would be even better if he could realize his ambition and see the Sanxing man with his own eyes in his lifetime!
Chengdu.
Prince's mansion.
Zhang Peilan is doing her makeup in front of the mirror.
I saw her jet-black long hair sliding between her snow-white fingers, coiled into a bun, wandering in front of the mirror, full of all kinds of amorous feelings.
"Yu Niang, is sister pretty?"
Zhang Peiyu, a little girl carved in pink and jade, nodded hurriedly.
"Auntie looks great!"
She resisted reaching out to touch Zhang Peilan's hair, and flung herself on Zhang Peilan coquettishly, and said softly and childishly: "Yu Niang should be as good-looking as Sister."
Lan Niang's face was full of smiles, she hugged Yuniang up, and said: "When you grow up, sister, I will dress you up, now, let sister make two small braids for you."
Hearing this, Zhang Peiyu nodded her head like pounding onions.
She sat obediently on Zhang Peilan's body, allowing Zhang Peilan to pick up her hair in strands.
While Zhang Peilan was braiding her younger sister's hair, a maid's voice came from outside the door.
"Girl, the envoy from Jingzhou is here, it seems that His Highness sent a message!"
Your Highness?
Zhang Peilan's whole body was shocked, and her heartbeat accelerated unconsciously at this moment.
Has His Highness delivered a letter?
Poor god.
In Chengdu, she misses Liu Chan and is almost sick of lovesickness, otherwise she wouldn't come to the prince's mansion often.
In the backyard of this mansion, she directly bought a boudoir. Outside the small courtyard of the boudoir, she planted some flowers and plants. She was either weaving clothes every day or missing her husband.
Now that she heard that Liu Chan had sent a letter, she didn't care about braiding Zhang Peiyu's hair anymore, she put herself down, and walked out of the room in a hurry.
Zhang Peiyu was left with a confused face.
She had only braided half of her hair, and now she was facing the bronze mirror, seeing her funny appearance, her mouth was flattened, and tears almost fell down.
Sister is dressed so beautifully, but she made me look like this.
However, at this moment, Zhang Peilan only had a good husband in her heart, so how could she care about her good sister?
Soon, outside the gate of the inner courtyard, Zhang Peilan saw the envoy from Jingzhou.
"The villain has seen the girl."
When the messenger saw Zhang Peilan, he quickly bowed his head and saluted.
Zhang Peilan nodded slightly.
"Has your Highness sent a letter?"
The messenger nodded slightly, holding a package in both hands at the moment.
The objects wrapped in the Shu brocade looked quite heavy.
"That's all."
Zhang Peilan was panting heavily with the maid accompanying her. She had just trotted all the way and caught up with Zhang Peilan. At this moment, she was sweating, and stepped forward to take the package.
"Thank you for your hard work, this is my heart."
Do it up and down to buy people's hearts.
Don't look at the envoy's low status, but no matter how low the status is, he can't offend him.
Thanks to him, he will naturally speak good things about her in the future.
Another maid handed a brocade bag to the messenger.
"Girl, you can't do it."
Although the emissary was refusing, he took the brocade bag without any hesitation.
"With a little thought, go and eat some good wine and good food."
"Thank you girl."
The lady of the Zhang family will become a princess in the future.
It's no wonder that she can make a marriage contract with His Highness and treat people of low status like him so kindly. If she doesn't become a crown princess, who will?
After the messenger left, Zhang Peilan quickly took the package in her hand.
She was weighing the weight, and the corners of her lips were slightly raised on her beautiful face.
What exactly did His Highness give me?
She was looking forward to it.
Quickly returning to the inner courtyard room, Zhang Peilan opened the package.
In the package, there was a book made of Zuo Bo's paper, which was a thick volume. Besides the book, there was also a golden hairpin, silver bracelet, and a dozen letters in the package.
Seeing these objects, Zhang Peilan was extremely happy, and the smile on her face never stopped.
The maid beside Zhang Peilan who grew up with Zhang Peilan also jokingly said: "Miss, she hasn't smiled as much as she does today in the past month."
Zhang Peilan glanced at the maid angrily, but in a blink of an eye, joy and love filled her heart.
She gently opened the book, and her eyes lit up even more.
I saw that there were leaves that were made into specimens in this book, which was very beautiful.
After the leaves of various colors become specimens, they have their own beauty.
Zhang Peilan was moved, she picked up the top letter among those letters, which had the four big characters of "Lan Niang's personal letter" written on it, and Zhang Peilan gently opened the letter to read.
I saw in the letter:
I haven't seen you for a long time, and I miss you very much. There are so many things in the world, and there are three things I love.Sun, Moon and Qing.The sun is the morning, the moon is the evening, and the Qing is the morning and evening.
It's more like a love letter than a letter.
For Zhang Peilan, a childhood sweetheart, Liu Chan naturally has feelings in his heart.
As the first to get acquainted with him, and also the first to tell each other from heart to heart, it turned out that Yinping was with him day and night, and Guan Yinping and Princess Zhurong both had intercourse, but Zhang Peilan did not.
Besides, whether he was in Nanzhong, or Jingzhou, even in Chengdu, he still spent more time with Guan Yinping.
In Liu Chan's heart, he still owed Zhang Peilan a little.
Whether it's specimens, hairpins, bracelets, or a dozen letters, they are all for the purpose of dispelling the boredom in Zhang Peilan's heart.
really.
After reading a letter, Zhang Peilan's eyes were already moved, she murmured to herself: "Mr. Lang thinks of me so much, loves me so much, how can I blame him?"
Although she didn't see Liu Chan face to face, the pleasure and excitement in Zhang Peilan's heart were beyond words.
"Sister, braid your hair."
Zhang Peiyu walked forward with her mouth pouted, her braid was half braided, and she destroyed it, which looked a little funny at the moment.
"Yu Niang is good, after my sister reads the letter, I will make it up for you."
letter?
Zhang Peiyu looked at the appearance of her elder sister's soul being taken away, and asked, "Is it a letter from Brother Chan?"
Zhang Peilan nodded.
"It's his."
snort!
Zhang Peiyu hummed and chirped immediately.
Brother Chan is too bad, he didn't take her out to play before, but now he comes to grab sister from me!
No.
When brother Chan comes back, I must make him look good.
Ah!
Just climb onto his bed and scare him!
Wancheng.
General's House.
Guan Ping held the letter in his hand, and after he read the contents of the letter, his face showed regret.
"Why are you back? It's not good to stay with His Highness?"
He is now the eldest brother-in-law of His Highness, as long as he is not dead, and by virtue of his status, he does not need much credit to be able to sit on the position of general.
What is your Zong Ziqing?
Don't stay by His Highness's side to get familiar, and come to Wancheng?
"Didn't Your Highness say in the letter that I will use time to lure Xu Huang to lead the Wei army over, and then the general will ambush to one side and defeat Xu Huang. At that time, not only will Nanyang be completely saved, but Yingchuan will also be marched. , Threats have all become possible."
Use room?
This room is so useful?
"No matter how much time you spend, it's better to stay by His Highness's side."
His brother-in-law is too capable, as long as he can be reused, what credit will he not have?
It seems that since he lectured in the martial arts hall, he has quickly climbed to the positions of general, general, and lieutenant, and has become the middle level of the army.
It is conceivable that as long as His Highness gives them a chance, it is not impossible to become a leading general.
Your Highness has the most chances to make meritorious service, so why use the time?
Can it be successful?
"Your Highness has already given me the right to do things cheaply, and I ask General Guan to cooperate."
"That's all."
Guan Ping sighed and said, "Since that's the case, let's do what you say. How do you want me to cooperate?"
Zong Ziqing showed a smile on his face, and said: "General, please lead the troops of the headquarters and go to Bowangpo to garrison. I will guard Wancheng!"
Ok?
Guan Ping frowned slightly.
If he left Wancheng and asked Zong Ziqing to guard him, what should he do if he betrayed him?
The hesitation on Guan Ping's face was not concealed.
Zong Ziqing naturally knew the worries in Guan Ping's heart, he said: "Don't worry, general, after I met His Highness in Xinye and Champion, I have no second thoughts. If you want to confuse Xu Huang, the general can move my family to Xinye, so that Be a proton."
Guan Ping smiled lightly, and he said: "Since His Highness can give you the right to do things cheaply, he believes in you. I believe in His Highness's vision, and I also believe in Ziqing's loyalty."
He got up from the tiger skin cushion and said: "Your Highness is not suspicious of employing people, and I am naturally the same. Three days later, I will raise my troops and go to Bowangpo. The matter of Wancheng will be left to Ziqing."
"Thank you, General, for your trust!"
Zong Ziqing was moved.
What moved me was that both Liu Chan and Guan Ping were willing to trust him.
Three days later.
If his Zong Ziqing has not changed his mind, he will make great contributions by dedicating Wancheng to Xu Huang!
The dream of two thousand stone official positions can also be realized.
But
Even if Wancheng is sacrificed, will Xu Huang be able to defend Wancheng?
Now the hearts of the scholars of the Nanyang gentry are all concentrated on Liu Gongsi, the crown prince of Hanzhong.
Since the Nanyang gentry supported him, the hearts of the Nanyang people naturally rested with His Highness.
Your Highness can use Nanyang scholars, Nanyang people, Nanyang soldiers, and Nanyang material resources.
Even if he defended and sacrificed Wancheng, so what?
In the end, Wancheng is not safe, so is he going to flee to Xudu?
When he arrived in Xudu, did he still have credit for dedicating the city?
And
After all, he is from Nanyang, and his roots are in Nanyang. After going to Xudu, isn't he a rootless duck?
now
His Zong Ziqing also has no other choice.
In this life, he is determined to be His Highness's minion!
that day.
The news that Guan Ping was going to move his army to Bowangpo and was going to enter Ye County spread like wildfire in the city.
Zong Ziqing immediately wrote a letter and ordered Xingye to send it to Ye County.
In Wancheng, a big net has been slowly opened, waiting for the arrival of the prey Xu Huang!
Ye County.
Camp outside the city.
in the school field.
Xu Huang stood on the school grounds, the scorching sun hung high, the sun was blazing, and the scorching heat wave hit his face.He was shirtless, and sweat dripped from his forehead, soaking his hair.At this moment, he was holding the long knife in his hands tightly with both hands, his eyes were dignified and firm.
Huhuhu~
The long knife in his hand was danced vigorously by him.
There was a fierce aura between the knife and the gesture.He swung his blade like a gust of wind, as fast as lightning.Every time you swing the knife, there is a tension of power, the light of the knife is shining, and the shadow of the knife is faint.
He has a nimble figure and strong footsteps. He sometimes rushes forward, sometimes retreats, sometimes turns left, and sometimes moves right.The body is strong and flexible, like a cheetah galloping on the grassland.
The heat of the sun passed through his body, and sweat flowed continuously, but he did not stop, one knife after another, and every swing was full of strength and determination.His movements are smooth and precise, each strike hits the target exactly, as if anticipating his opponent's every move.
While Xu Huang was practicing swordsmanship in the school field, Sima Yi walked slowly to the edge of the school field with a letter in his hand.
"The general is brave!"
He looked at the school field for a while, with a look of admiration on his face.
"How? Do you want to come up and make gestures with me?"
Compete with you?
Sima Yi quickly waved his hand and refused.
"The general's sword skills are unparalleled. If I go up, I'm afraid I won't even be able to resist the general in one round."
"Hahaha~"
Xu Huang laughed out loud, obviously Sima Yi's flattery was very helpful to him.
"Zhongda came in a hurry, but is there something wrong?"
Xu Huang walked down the school field, and the soldiers immediately handed him a wet towel. He casually wiped off the sweat stains on his body, and then put on a single shirt.
"There is news from Wancheng."
Wancheng?
Xu Huang's eyes lit up.
"What's the news?"
Sima Yi handed the letter to Xu Huang.
"After the general read it, he understood it in his heart."
After receiving the letter from Sima Yi, Xu Huang looked at it carefully.
He had only read half of the letter, and his face was filled with ecstasy.
"This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!"
He calculated the time, three days later, in fact, it was almost October, and the time agreed with Jiang Dong, a few days had passed.
Now that he started a war in Nanyang, if Sun Zhongmou of Jiangdong followed behind, Guan Yunchang and Liu Gongsi, the crown prince of Hanzhong, would definitely be devastated!
"That Zong Ziqing is really a character. As a descendant, he can still be reused by Guan Ping. It's amazing, amazing."
The expression on Sima Yi's face was always calm.
When Xu Huang saw it, he thought it was fraudulent, and hesitated for a while.
"Did Zhong Da see something?"
He thought about it carefully, too.
Can Zong Ziqing gain Guan Ping's trust once he descends?
Fraud!
Absolutely fraudulent!
Sima Yi shook his head and said: "I don't know if Zong Ziqing is cheating, but Guan Ping is willing to trust him, and it is not without reason. The daughter of the Zong family married Guan Ping, and the two of them are already brothers-in-law. With such a relationship, it makes sense to hand over Wancheng to him."
so ah!
Xu Huang thought about it and nodded.
"So Zhongda thinks this plan is feasible?"
Is this plan feasible?
Sima Yi shook his head.
"There is no news from Jiangdong, we must not send troops!"
His eyes flickered, and he said: "The urgent report from Hefei just came. Zhongmou attacked Hefei seven days ago, but failed. Now even if he transfers the army and prepares to use troops against Jingzhou, it may take time. If you and I can do it in two days The troops are dispatched, and when Guan Yunchang and Liu Gongsi, the Prince of Hanzhong, will join forces in Nanyang, do you have the confidence to win?"
Xu Huang's soldiers and horses are not enough for Guan Yunchang's now.
Plus
That Guan Yunchang was brave, Xu Huang met him, but he didn't have the confidence to win.
Liu Gongsi, the Prince of Hanzhong, is extremely cunning. Now that he is marching into the army, even if Zong Ziqing sincerely surrenders, after they take Wancheng, can they hold Wancheng?
It is easy to capture Wancheng, but how difficult it is to defend Wancheng!
Nanyang is now in the hands of Jingzhou, if it is trapped in Wancheng, wouldn't it be necessary for the king to send reinforcements to rescue it?
He must let Jiangdong lure Nanyang's reinforcements away before he can send troops!
After thinking about this clearly, the troubles in Xu Huang's heart were swept away.
"Since that's the case, then don't worry. I've been practicing soldiers for the past few days. When Zhong Da says it's time to attack, I'll attack again!"
With a counselor by his side, Xu Huang entrusted Sima Yi with the heavy responsibility of thinking.
As for him?
Just go to war!
At this moment, in the direction of Jiangxia County, Lu Xun is already outside Zhouling City.
As he looked at the small city, his eyes gradually flickered.
Behind him, the dark Jiangdong soldiers began to gather.
Control the beacon towers along the road, first go down to Zhouling, then go up along the river, and capture Jiangling with lightning speed!
What I lost in Jiangling, now I, Lu Boyan, want to get it back with interest!
A person can lose once, twice, but not the third time!
He, Lu Boyan, will not lose to Liu Gongsi again.
Absolutely not!
