Three Kingdoms: Prosper Han from the beginning of brushing favorability

Chapter 189 The powerful Yong Kai, the barbarian king Meng Huo

Of course, Lao Liu was not the only one who was busy planning for the future.

The counties in Nanzhong are not all the poisonous and impoverished places in the general impression.

Among the four counties that were not controlled by Lao Liu, Yizhou County, which was later Jianning County, was the most among them. It was not only rich in salt pond fishing, but also rich in gold, silver and livestock.

The Yong family has been enshrined here since Yong Chi. It has to be said that the great ancestor Liu Bang repaid his grievances with virtue, which is really worthy of his family.

The Yong family's mansion occupies a vast area, much larger than Lao Liu's Hanzhong Palace.

The luxury of the house and the extravagance of the furnishings are not comparable to that of the old Liu who only bought some brocade clothes and furs.

Yong Kai grew up in this environment since he was a child, and he is no longer just arrogant. The prefects sent by the central government to Yizhou County have always been nothing but a fart in front of the Yong family.

If the Yong family doesn't nod, the so-called prefect will not even think about carrying out a decree.

Yong Kai likes Liu Zhang very much, because Liu Zhang is kind and weak, and this kind of kindness is highly respected by the rich and powerful, as well as scholar-bureaucrats with no ambitions.

Because Liu Zhang's benevolence and loose laws are more for these aristocratic classes, the most typical example is the connivance of Dongzhou soldiers at the beginning.

But under this kind of "benevolence", how many people have been ravaged and oppressed is not a question that the benevolent Liu Zhang will consider.

The Yong family was very nourished during Liu Zhang's period. At that time, Liu Zhang basically adopted a laissez-faire attitude towards Nanzhong.

However, Liu Bei took control of Yizhou, but he seemed to want to unilaterally change the status quo.

First, the so-called "Governor of Tuijiang" was established, and Deng Fang, the prefect of Zhuti County, was appointed to take the post concurrently. Although the Dudu Mansion was only in name only, it was arranged in the northernmost Zhuti County, and had no actual binding force on the other four counties in Nanzhong.

But the meaning of Liu Bei's move is already obvious.

Shi Xie and Bu Zhi under Sun Quan in Jiaozhou had long been in touch with the Yong family.

They sent people to warn Yong Kai that Liu Bei's lofty ambitions are by no means comparable to those of the previous Yizhou lords, and they must be on guard early.

It has to be said that although Jiangdong Wu's second son just pulled his hips in the front, he was indeed a master of this method by secretly playing tricks such as infiltration and backstabbing, fanning the wind and lighting the will-o'-the-wisp.

What kind of lord there is, and what kind of courtiers will be gathered together.

At that time, Yong Kai didn't believe it, because no one had ever thought of Nanzhong before.

Thinking back when Wang Mang mobilized 30 soldiers and civilians in Bashu, he had not been able to calm down after three years of fighting. If he dared to move Nanzhong, he would fall into the quagmire of war, and often surrendered and rebelled. provoke?

But out of admiration and trust in Shi Xie, especially Bu Zhi's ability, Yong Kai still followed his words and bought Liu Bei's valet with a lot of money.

Unexpectedly, unexpectedly, as they said, after Liu Bei settled Hanzhong, he actually set his mind on Nanzhong!
Do you want his Yong family to pay taxes honestly, and even accept central control and obey the management of the stationed officials?
There is no door!
This prefect Zhengang often violated the wishes of his Yong family, always talking about the lord, Yong Kai had long wanted to touch him.

This time is just right, so I just reversed it directly.

The only fly in the ointment is that Liu Bei's valet has already escaped, otherwise I can continue to find out his specific arrangements for Nanzhong.

But this is only a small problem.

A beautiful maid beside Yong Kai brought the wine cup to his mouth, and he took a sip and said to the person opposite: "Brother Meng, what do you think about raising troops?"

On the opposite side, a big bearded man nearly eight feet tall, with broad shoulders and broad back, was also drinking and eating meat under the service of a beautiful woman. It was Meng Huo.

The Meng family is the only family that Yong Kai can look up to in Yizhou County. Firstly, the Meng family is one and only among the Yi people. Secondly, the Meng family has always followed the lead of the Yong family, and the Yong family reciprocated.

The leader of this generation, Meng Huo, is not as rough as he looks, and he has a good personal relationship with Yong Kai.

At this time, he wiped his mouth, and said with a smile to Yong Kai: "Brother, you really think that the people from Jiangdong are reliable? Didn't you hear that he was defeated in Jingzhou, lost troops and lost generals, even Sun Quan almost lost his life to the police, and now he is a lame general. "

Yong Kai didn't take it seriously: "There is always victory or defeat in the use of troops. Jiangdong is rich and prosperous. This loss will not hurt the bones. After the army is raised, I will return to Soochow, and Shi Xie has promised to give me any support at that time..."

"Oh, I'm afraid that when the time comes to fight, Jiang Dong will only give 'any support other than practical help'." Meng Huo looked very disdainful, and seemed to look down on Jiang Dong very much.

Hearing the words, Yong Kai felt that the words were wrong, and couldn't help frowning: "Why, even brother Meng is afraid of Liu Bei?"

Meng Huo laughed loudly, and pushed the waitress away: "Brother, who do you think I am, Meng Huo? Even if the overlord is alive, if he dares to enter this land, he will dare to lead an army to fight!
"I'm trying to persuade my brother not to place any hope in Jiangdong. Don't say that those sinister rats will never send troops to help us. Even if we send troops, what help will it be? Brother, why don't you step up and gather troops to practice, and we will win the battle by ourselves. Fang is the right way."

Only then did Yong Kai frowned, and hurriedly asked: "So, brother Meng agreed to the matter of raising troops?"

"Yizhou County, we have always said the same thing. Brothers rule the Han people, and I lead the Yiyue. How can we let Liu Bei take whatever he wants?"

After Meng Huo finished speaking, he drank the wine in the cup and slapped it on the table with a slap, and the stone cup shattered: "So, I will go and order all the ministries, and prepare to gather people to cooperate with Brother Yong. This time, I will give Liu Bei A lesson!"

"Okay!" Yong Kai slapped his thigh, raised his glass and said, "Brother Meng is right. If Liu Bei dares to send troops, he will never come back! Please!"

The maid hurriedly got Meng a new cup, and he took it to toast: "Please!"

The two drank each other, looked at each other and laughed, not worried about the upcoming battle at all.

Originally, Liu Bei wanted to defend against Sun Wu in the east and Cao Wei in the north, and now after repeated battles, is there any food left?How many soldiers are there?
In addition, the army was not familiar with the environment of this place, and when everything was revived, the poisonous insects and snakes and wild beasts in the forest were enough for them to suffer.

If you can't win by fighting, don't be the head of the Yong family yourself, and don't be the barbarian king of Meng Huo, just go to Chengdu together to lead the horse and kick Liu Bei...

……

They have confidence, and Liu Chan has even more confidence. For nothing else, he called the name of the person in front of him-Zhuge Kongming.

As long as the time comes to persuade Lao Liu to agree that Uncle Zhuge will preside over the battle of Nanzhong, there will be no mistakes.

At this time, Uncle Zhuge basically didn't personally lead the troops, but was doing logistics. I'm afraid Lao Liu didn't know enough about his amazing military talents.

At that time, Fazheng should have recovered, and he just had time to free up his hands to Pingnan.

In history, Prime Minister Zhuge started to Pingnanzhong in March 225, crossed Lu in May, and went deep into the barren. By the autumn, the war was over.

At that time, the prime minister was in a hellish mess. Yiling was defeated, the elite burned out, there were not many strong generals left, the warehouses were empty, Soochow was clamoring to move westward every day, and Cao Wei sent people to persuade him to surrender every day...

But the prime minister only delayed for a year to restore his national strength. After sending Deng Zhi to appease Wu's second son, he resolutely sent troops and defeated Nanzhong with a bad card.

Not to mention now?

"The strategy of Nanzhong that the prince said just now is very good, and it coincides with Liang." Zhuge Liang laughed.

After the meeting, Liu Chan and Zhuge Kongming had a long-lost sitting and chatting.

Liu Chan smiled and said nothing, "It must be the same thing, I just said what you would have done with a little more detail..."

He just wanted to say a few words of modesty, but Zhuge Liang laughed again: "There is another person who thinks the same way. The crown prince is not in Chengdu. Liang often discusses military affairs with him in his spare time. I think this person is quite talented. Why don't you invite him to discuss with him?" How are you?"

"Oh? That would be great, but I don't know who can get such an evaluation from Uncle Zhuge?" Liu Chan was very interested when he heard the words, because he was too short of talents.

Zhuge Liang's feather fan pointed to the east: "Does the prince know the five permanent members of the Ma family in Jingzhou?"

The enthusiasm on Liu Chan's face froze when he heard this, he had already thought of someone... no way?

"'Ma's Wuchang, Baimei is the best', I naturally know, Uncle Zhuge means Ma Liang and Ma Jichang?"

Zhuge Liang shook his feather fan lightly and laughed: "It goes without saying that Ji Chang is talented, but his younger brother is also very talented. He often discusses military affairs with Liang until late at night. This person is the magistrate of Chengdu, named Ma Di Ma Youchang."

Liu Chan: "..."
