Three Kingdoms: Prosper Han from the beginning of brushing favorability

Chapter 158
Meng Da resisted the urge to urinate, even said and gestured, and swore again, finally dispelling Xia Houshang's doubts.

Now calm down and think about it, if they colluded with the Shu army and planned to deceive themselves, Liu Feng, who is Liu Bei's fake son, really didn't need to risk himself.

If Liu Chan hadn't come to rescue him in time, Liu Feng would probably be dead by now, not as if he had premeditated.

Xia Houshang, who regretted the withdrawal of the troops, also told his own experience. Shen Dan vowed to trap and kill the Hanzhong reinforcements with him, saying that he was definitely defenseless.

At that time, Xia Houshang was in the north of the city, and Shen Dan was in the west of the city. As a result, Ma Chao, who came from the west, led a hundred cavalry to cross Shen Dan, and directly attacked his army formation without saying a word!
"At that time, I only thought that Shen Dan must have lied to me. He was afraid of being counterattacked, so he retreated." Xia Houshang sighed, "Now it seems that the Zhongshu army may be plotting."

Xu Huang nodded and said, "It is impossible for Hanzhong troops to bypass Xicheng and appear in Shangyong. Boren should be cautious. But from this point of view, Xicheng may have fallen into the enemy's hands."

Meng Da said in shock: "The west city is the foundation of the Shen family. If there is any loss, the Shen brothers will be alone. If there is a water blockade to the east, there will be heavy losses if forced to cross, and there is no way out to the west... Isn't it dangerous? ?”

"We don't know how many reinforcements will be sent from Hanzhong. In the worst case, I'm afraid the Shen family's army has already been defeated." Xu Huang said, "For the current plan, I'll set up camp on the east bank of the water block, send people to find out the enemy's actual situation, and then Make a decision."

Meng Da said: "There are many people from here under the command of the last general, who can take on this task."

"In this way, there is General Lao Mengda. It is helpless for a certain person to testify just now, please don't blame me if I offend you." Xia Houshang cupped his hands.

Meng Da was flattered, and hurriedly said: "It's okay, it's a prudent move, and the general will not blame him."

Xia Houshang nodded, then turned to Xu Huang and said, "General Gongming, now that I think about it carefully, Ma Chao led a hundred cavalry to attack in order to cover Liu Chan. But Liu Chan rode alone into our army formation, although it was really wrong for him. Yong, I am afraid it is also due to insufficient troops.

"We have already joined forces, if we cross the water and fight back to rescue Shen's family, maybe we can annihilate the Hanzhong reinforcements in one fell swoop?"

Xu Huang pondered for a moment and said, "That's not right. There are still three thousand defenders from Liu Feng in Shangyong City. The Shen family's subordinates are full of private soldiers, young and strong. A sudden surprise attack will inevitably cause confusion in the army. If the defenders in Shangyong City take advantage of this Killed...maybe already defeated.

"If this is the case, the enemy army will definitely lie in ambush on the west bank. When our army crosses the river and strikes at halfway, it is better to find out first. At the same time, deploy defenses on the east bank to prevent the Shu army from crossing the river first and making a surprise attack."

After deliberation, the three of them finally agreed to Xu Huang's plan, and the army set up camp at a high point on the east bank.

……

In Shangyong city.

"Our army should send people to lie in ambush on the west bank. If Cao Jun wants to cross the blocked water and attack Shangyong, he can wait for him to cross the river and attack him at half crossing." Guan Xing said, pointing to the map.

Liu Chan nodded: "That's right, Vice General Wang, I leave this matter to you to arrange."

"The last general takes orders!"

"Li Er."

"The end is here."

"Send out capable scouts to investigate the situation of Cao's army on the east bank."

"Yes!"

How to do it now, such as sending a few people to go with them, to rest, to follow, to report, to rotate at regular intervals, etc... These details no longer need Liu Chan's further verbal instructions.

Hu Li walked in at this time, clasped his fists and said: "Prince, the enemy general has already asked. The name of the chief general is Xia Houshang, and the deputy general Xu Huang."

Xia Houshang... I don't know much about it.

I just remember that he is Cao Pi's confidant, one of the princelings, and seems to have some ability.

But Xu Huang is familiar with it and can't be more familiar with it. Since he emerged in the first battle of Guandu 20 years ago, he has fought everywhere and made a lot of military exploits.

Just recently, he just seized the opportunity to lead the recruits to drive straight into the ten heavy antlers and break through the second uncle's position.

The opponent is not the one who will send warmth, and if you want to defeat the enemy, you need to go all out.

However, his own military strength is not dominant, and the two cities in the rear are still full of hidden dangers. When he needs to send heavy troops to guard him, how can he talk about defeating the enemy?

Under the heavy pressure of the siege, even the interior may become chaotic.

This has to be fixed first.

This is difficult to say, simple to say, but actually very simple.

If the Shen family brothers are in the hands of Cao Jun, even if they have subdued the two cities by force now, as long as Cao Jun is powerful, there will be more internal chaos.

However, the Shen family brothers are in his own hands now... Xicheng is also in his hands.

"Vice General Wang, there is still one thing you need to do." Liu Chan lightly tapped the table with his finger, "The local people in the dispatched army will invite some powerful family representatives from Xicheng and Shangyong counties, as well as the leaders of the Qiangdi tribe. Shangyong."

"Yes."

"Attention please, don't use force. Just tell them that the Shen brothers and Xicheng are in my hands now, and they will be willing to come."

"The last general takes orders."

The plan has been decided, now it's up to Cao Jun to make moves.

After several days in a row, the two sides confronted each other across the water block, and did not launch an attack for the time being.

Although Cao Jun knew that there were only a thousand reinforcements from the Shu army to fight Shangyong, he also knew that these more than 1000 people cooperated with the [-] defenders in the city to defeat Shen Jiajun's nearly [-] tribes and young men...

Although I haven't seen the details with my own eyes, if these thousands of people can't pose enough threats to the Shen family army that is attacking the city, then the defenders in Shangyong City will have no chance to attack at all.

Therefore, General Cao Jun is having heated discussions on how to advance westward.

On the other hand, the "Joint Meeting of Clan Heads" in Xicheng and Shangyong counties was also successfully held at the Shen family's mansion in Shangyong City.

Although the Shen family has thousands of shaded households in the two counties and has dominated for many years, they are not the only ones in the two counties after all.

Other families and tribes have been squeezed by the Shen family to develop space, and they dare not and have no way to resist the authority of the Shen family. If they want to survive and multiply here, they can only rely on the Shen family.

But it's different now.

"See Prince."

Everyone bowed in unison, and Liu Chan bowed his hand in return and invited everyone to sit down.

"I don't know if I invite you here today, is it presumptuous?"

A middle-aged man immediately laughed and said: "Don't be presumptuous, how can you be presumptuous! When I heard that the prince is coming, I have the heart to come to pay a visit. I only hate my low status and dare not disturb the prince. Now I am asking the prince to invite you. It's my luck."

His land is in Xicheng County, and his house is also in Xicheng.

Before being invited this time, the team led by Ding Feng and Chai Rong had already "visited" his home.

Although Qiu did not commit any crimes, and did not threaten to beat him, he just kindly publicized the Shen family's treachery and evil deeds, as well as the prince's wisdom and benevolence.

But including Ding Feng and Chai Rong, those soldiers were all tall and big, like wolves and tigers, and the murderous aura of the silent soldiers still left him with lingering fear...

The whole family is still under his control, so he naturally knows what to say.

Liu Chan nodded with a smile, then straightened his expression, and got straight to the point: "It is for the Shen family's business to invite all of you here. The Shen brothers received a high salary from their father and king, but they didn't want to repay them, and they wanted to commit rebellion today! The evidence is conclusive, let’s watch it.”

Then he handed out Shen Dan's personal letter to Meng Da and passed it on to everyone.

Everyone who had read the letter yelled at the Shen family for being unfaithful and unrighteous, and the crowd was outraged, and it took a long time to subside.

Of course Liu Chan knew that this was hypocrisy, the situation was stronger than others, and his army controlled the two places. Now even if Liu Chan said that the earth was round, these people could only bite the bullet and agree.

But this step is still important to his next plan.

These people would not feel safe if they believed that they were forcibly eradicating the Shen family by force.

Today I can destroy the Shen family at will, and tomorrow I can destroy any of them at will.

Once they have this kind of thinking, they will not really support themselves.

When everyone calmed down again, Liu Chan said: "Furthermore, according to Gu's investigation, the Shen family has dominated the two counties for many years, rampant in the villages and the common people, and suppressed you a lot. These crimes and punishments, Gu should report to the father and king, and punish you." The head of the evil, moved to his family."

"As it should be!"

"Yes, yes, the Shen family has been running rampant for many years, so there should be this kind of retribution."

"The prince is wise."

Liu Chan pressed his hands and said solemnly: "The Shen family's ill-gotten gains over the years should be confiscated, and the land and forests it occupies should also be collected by the government according to the law."

Although everyone still said yes repeatedly, they were obviously not as enthusiastic as before, and their attitudes became colder.

In their hearts, the Shen family left, and the Liu family came again. For them, life would not change at all.

It just changed from giving gifts and paying tribute to the Shen family to paying taxes to the Liu family.

Scanning everyone's expressions, the fire is almost ready.

Liu Chan changed his solemnity before, and turned to a gentle smile: "It's just...Gu Nian and you have been plundered by the Shen family for many years, so there should be a lot of losses. Today Gu Yuan will take out [-]% of his land and forests and share them equally with you. as compensation. How?"

Human nature always likes harmony and compromise. For example, if you say that the room is too dark and you need to open a window, everyone will definitely not allow it.But if you want to tear down the roof, they will come to mediate and are willing to open the windows.

If I said that I planned to give them [-]% of the Shen family's land and property, some people might think it was too little, and even if they didn't dare to bargain with him, they might not be grateful.

Now it is different, Liu Chan first said that according to the rules, all should be confiscated, and then that the [-]% is to be considered for you, it is an exception, and it is a gift from my Liu family.

As soon as everyone heard that they could divide into [-]%, they immediately became excited, and praised Liu Chan for his benevolence, virtue and wisdom, and he had the style of being the father of the King of Hanzhong.

Liu Chan was also very happy, bait would be eaten if it was thrown out.

If the fish is like this, the human nature may not be much stronger.
