My Ji Han Dynasty was prosperous in martial arts, but I have always convinced people with virtue

Chapter 9 VIP Treatment
Event point: the establishment of Jiangxia County City.

Task reward: 1 golden attribute point.

Task process: With Xiakou as the center, expand to the north, east, and south respectively, and finally build a large-scale city that is not inferior to Xiangyang and Jiangling.

When Liu Chan told Ma Liang about this plan, the other party almost fainted.

Afterwards, he took out the account book and carefully calculated an account for Liu Chan.

The conclusion is that they simply don't have the labor and resources to do all this now.

The most reasonable and cost-effective way is to build some docks around Xiakou first, which can serve as a warning and retardation for Sun Jun in the east and Cao Jun in the north.

However, Ma Liang's advice was quickly rejected by Liu Chan.

"If you want to gather refugees, how can you gather them without a city? How many people can live in those docks?"

Ma Liang also knew that Liu Chan's statement was correct.

But the problem is, they have no money!

As Le marched southward, the pressure on Jingbei rose sharply, and a lot of resources were invested in the front line.

On Xiakou's side, the Soochow army has been sharpening their swords and will not relax.

Liu Chan smiled, as if he had already made up his mind.

"I can do it without manpower."

Without manpower?

Ma Liang is so smart and agile, after hearing this, he understood Liu Chan's meaning in an instant.

Afterwards, Ma Liang stopped.

"Young master, you can't. Although those mountain spirits and wild monsters have power beyond ordinary people, you can trade with them, which is no different from seeking skin from a tiger."

Ma Liang is too aware of the powerful relationship here.

Since he was a child, he has seen many talented people enter those mountain and wild places that are difficult for ordinary people to enter in order to gain powerful power. In the end, they either died or went crazy.

"Ji Chang doesn't need to worry too much, I have my own way."

"Young master, don't take risks."

At this time, it was reported that Zhuge Jin had arrived at Xiakou Port.

Liu Chan said along the way.

"Ji Chang, I'll leave everything here to you. I'll go out and hide for two days."

Ma Liang couldn't stop him, and Liu Chan had disappeared.

"No, I have to inform the third master and General Zhao as soon as possible."

……

Wu Jun camp.

Lu Su paced back and forth in the tent, his mind was uncertain.

Zhuge Jin set out from Xiakou, entered Jiangling along the river, and wanted to see Zhuge Liang.

But Zhuge Liang was not in Jiangling, saying that he had gone to inspect the four counties in Jingnan.

Zhuge Jin had no choice but to continue up the river and arrived in Yizhou.

This time, he managed to meet Liu Bei and Liu Zhang who was drinking with him.

According to rumors, after the two brothers met, they had been drinking for dozens of days.

After Liu Bei heard about it, he scolded Liu Chan, a scumbag, and blamed him for causing trouble, and said that he would definitely return Xiakou, so that Zhuge Jin could rest assured.

When Zhugejin's flying letter came, Liu Bei's attitude did not exceed Lu Su's expectations.

But what is worth pondering is Liu Zhang's attitude.

At the banquet, Liu Zhang not only dissuaded the angry Liu Bei, but also praised Liu Chan, a young hero, as a lucky star, and said that the Han Dynasty had successors.

Even, Liu Zhang said in court that he could send troops into Jing to assist Liu Bei's Jingzhou army.

It is said that Liu Zhang is weak, but according to Lu Su, this Shu Lord is not as simple as it seems on the surface.

Now there are two factions in Sichuan, one faction welcomes Liu Bei, and the other thinks that allowing Liu Bei to enter Xichuan is to lure the wolf into the house.

Now, Liu Bei's main military force in Jingzhou is placed on the eastern and northern front lines, and it is no longer possible to mobilize excess troops to move westward.

The anti-Liu Bei faction in central Shu kept their mouths shut, while the welcome Liu Bei faction headed by Zhang Song was very high-profile.

But, is this really what Liu Zhang, who superficially supports Zhang Song, would like to see?

Lu Su's thoughts were interrupted by Lu Meng.

"Governor, we can't wait any longer."

"But Ziyu has already obtained Liu Bei's handwritten letter. Now that he has returned to Xiakou, why don't he come back?"

Hearing what Lu Su said, Lu Meng was really in a hurry. Why is he, the governor, so honest?

"This must be Liu Bei and his son acting. How can Liu Bei spit out the meat that has already been obtained?"

"But the alliance between Sun and Liu is the foundation of my Soochow. Now that I have torn my face, I am afraid that it will be difficult to explain internally and externally."

"Governor, you can no longer be so benevolent. Liu Bei never regarded us as an ally, sent a child in Xiakou, and sent us away. The brothers complained a lot, and they couldn't bear it."

"With our current strength, if we attack Xiakou by force, there is no certainty of victory."

Lu Meng naturally knew that what Lu Su said was true.

When Huang Zu guarded Xiakou back then, Sun Jun did not shake this line of defense even though he invaded from west to west.

What's more, Zhang Fei and Zhao Yun who are currently guarding Xiakou are far incomparable to Huang Zu.

At this time, Zhuge Jin's letter came again.

Lu Su opened it and handed it to Lu Meng.

"Ziyu returned to Xiakou, but Liu Chan was not there. He is waiting now, and he must wait for Liu Chan to come back."

Lu Meng shook his head.

"I don't think Zhuge Jin can wait for Liu Adou anymore."

Lu Meng put the letter on the table and offered advice to Lu Su.

"Cao Cao absolutely does not want to see Liu Bei dominate Jingzhou. Now Le Jin's army has gone south and is facing off with Guan Yu's army. The outcome is unknown. If we don't send envoys to Cao Ying, we will cooperate with the Wenpin Department in northern Jiangxia to attack Xiakou. At that time, Liu Bei's army will definitely be in chaos."

Lu Su finally nodded.

"It's up to you to do it, remember, don't reveal the wind."

Seeing Lu Meng's disappearing figure, Lu Su stroked his beard, actually somewhat disappointed with this confidant general.

"Ziming, you are too honest."

……

In the north of Jiangxia, among the mountains.

Liu Chan rode a little red horse and led more than a dozen white scorpion soldiers into the deep mountains where human conditions are rare.

The cavalry in Liu Bei's army is better than Sun Quan in quantity and quality, and lost to Cao Cao.

Moreover, when it comes to the lineage of the war horse, it can more or less be related to the second master's red rabbit horse.

Liu Chan's little red horse belongs to the second generation of Chitu.

When they arrived at the trial point, there was already another group of people in front of the huge grotto.

However, they don't seem to be getting the desired results.

A beautiful woman is crying with her arms around a girl.

Surrounded by a group of guards, looking at a corpse that had lost its vitality, they remained silent.

This group of guards is very skilled, and they don't look like they are easy to mess with.

The girl was not a few years older than Liu Chan, and she was crying until she was crying.

But no matter how the girl cried, there was no movement in the grotto.

The arrival of Liu Chan and others made this group of people vigilant.

Especially that woman, after seeing Liu Chan riding a horse, complex emotions appeared in her beautiful eyes.

Liu Chan ignored it, and walked straight to the front of the grotto, facing the huge stone statue.

"Nuo God, come here to ask for advice."

The stone statue opened its closed eyes, and when it saw Liu Chan, it was obviously different from its attitude towards the woman and others just now.

"Deep in the mountains and old forests, as time goes by, I don't want distinguished guests to come!"

After speaking, a stone bench and a stone table protruded from the ground.

The mountain monkey offers peaches, and the old ape offers wine.

Just when the woman and others were stunned, Nuo Shen said.

"VIP, please!"
