Chapter 188 Slaves and sea routes
With the birth of Huo Yi, Wancheng became more lively.Many family members of military lieutenant generals and county officials came to visit and gave gifts to celebrate the birth of a noble heir.
The power of the prefects in the Han Dynasty is far greater than that of the prefects in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, and Huo Jun has a heavy army. In today's Poyang County, unless Liu Qi intervenes, Huo Jun alone has the final say in the county.Even so, Huo Jun was also a man of integrity and did not overuse his power to enrich himself or collect bribes.
But for interpersonal relationships, Huo Jun did not refuse to accept them. Instead, he accepted some symbolically and returned the valuable items to please him.Huo Jun ordered his men to smile and refuse the things sent by the powerful and aristocratic people.
Taking advantage of his free time, Huo Jun took a few days off for himself, spending time with the Bu trainer, and hanging out with Er Qiao for two or three days.It wasn't until Liu Bei returned to Jingkou from Jiangxia and passed through Poyang County that Huo Jun left the land of gentleness.
Liu Bei looked at Huo Yi who was carried back by the maid, and said with a smile: "The boy is cute, and he is not afraid of others. He reacted to me and kept laughing. I think it is rare."
Huo Jun served tea to Liu Bei and said with a smile: "If the time is right, my wife will have given birth to an heir!"
Liu Bei grinned and said, "Same as Zhong Miao, Gan gave birth to a boy for someone."
"Congratulations, envoy!"
Huo Jun bowed his hand to Liu Bei and said with a smile: "I am very happy that you have an eldest son. Now Jun and the officials can also feel at ease."
Liu Bei is different from Huo Jun. As a factional monarch, he has no heirs and is old, which is undoubtedly a dangerous signal.He accepted Liu Feng as his son, not only to win over the Kou family, but also to reassure his officials.After all, no matter what Liu Feng's abilities are, in a sense he is qualified to succeed Liu Bei.
Hearing this, Liu Bei was unhappy and worried, and asked, "Don't Zhongmiao and Kongming both like to be granted the title of son?"
"Feng'er is very brave. He can go into battle to kill the enemy and mobilize troops to fight. Moreover, Feng'er is kind and filial, and he always fulfills his filial piety at my knees. At this time, if I were to die suddenly, Feng'er should be my successor!" Liu Bei said.
Huo Jun pondered for a while and said: "If the envoy only wants to protect Danyang County, the bravery of the prince can make him his heir. But if the envoy has the ambition to conquer the world, the prince is brave but has no plan, how can he become the envoy? after."
"I hope you will forgive me for any words I have offended you!"
Liu Bei sat down hugging his knees and said: "What Zhong Miao said is not unreasonable. You and Kong Ming are both thinking about my centuries-old plan. How can I blame you!"
Then, Liu Bei sighed and said: "Feng'er is brave and brave. If he can be trained, he may be able to use it. Now that the boy is just born, he doesn't know his habits or his moral character. How can he predict what will happen in the future. I should pay attention to one or two things to prevent future generations from destroying my inheritance. ."
Huo Jun changed the subject and asked: "Young Master was born in Jingkou, I wonder if you gave him a name, and where is he now?"
"When his mother was pregnant with her son, she looked up to the Big Dipper and wanted to name her Adou." Liu Bei thought about it and said, "Now that I want Adou to succeed me, I want to name him Zen."
After a pause, Liu Bei said in a low voice: "In order to prevent Brother Jing Sheng from knowing about Adou, I want to let Adou be temporarily fostered in Kong Ming's home."
Foster care, Jingkou, surnamed Liu...
Huo Jun raised the corner of his mouth and said in a wicked way: "Young Master is fostered in Kong Ming's home, why not give him the nickname 'Ji Nu'?"
Ancient people often gave humble nicknames in the hope that their children would grow up smoothly. There were many nicknames for slaves, but it was rare to be fostered in other people's homes and raised by others.
"A slave?"
Liu Bei was stunned for a moment, then muttered again, "Liu Jinnu?"
Huo Jun thought that Liu Bei was dissatisfied with his nickname, so he laughed and said, "This is Jun's joke. Adou's nickname is already very good!"
"it is good!"
Liu Bei laughed a few times and said: "Adou's nickname is too blessed, I'm afraid he won't be useful. Now adding the nickname of Ji Nu will suppress Adou's blessed name."
Huo Jun couldn't laugh or cry. Liu Jinnu of Jingkou appeared hundreds of years in advance. It was really bad fun.I don't know if Liu Chan can become more reliable with the nickname Liu Jinu on his back. Don't just listen to his father-in-law's words.Without Xiangfu and Xiangfu's descendants, everything is completely blind.
After finishing the small talk, Liu Bei brought the topic to the main topic and asked. "Zhongmiao, brother Jingsheng is ill and has taken care of his future affairs. Although he has no heir, Zijing thinks that brother Jingsheng's heart belongs to Bo Wei. Because of Cai Mao and Kuai Yue, he is afraid that the Xiangyang gentry will I don't want to, and I'm afraid that Cao Cao is in the north. He wants to protect the two states, so I won't have an heir for the time being. What should I do?"
Huo Jun pondered for a while and said: "What Zijing said makes sense. The chariot general rode into Xiangyang alone, relying on Cai Mao, Kuai Yue and Xiangyang and other generals to occupy the seven counties of Jingzhou. Good luck and misfortune, the chariot general is like Big trees and people in Xiangyang are like vines, the two grow on each other and are difficult to separate.”
"When a big tree is tall and majestic, the vines can be used to protect it from pests; if the big tree is about to die, the vines can harm it and extract nourishment. This is the case with the chariot and cavalry generals. Even if they tried to break away from the Xiangyang scholars, they could not break free. "
The fact that Liu Biao was able to capture Jingzhou empty-handed in troubled times, stay in Jianghan for more than ten years, and become the overlord of Wu and Chu was not due to lack of ability.It's just that he is restrained and has no military ability, so it is difficult to realize his ambitions.To be able to call himself King Wen of Zhou, Liu Biao also had a certain understanding of his situation and abilities.
"Brother Jingsheng's land spans thousands of miles, but it is only limited to an inch of land in Xiangyang. It is really a pity!"
Liu Bei sighed and turned to ask: "Brother Jingsheng has ordered a certain garrison in Xiakou. If we get his military order, we will raise troops to Xiangyang. What do you think Zhongmiao plans for this?"
Huo Jun frowned slightly and said, "Cai controls the inside and outside. I'm afraid that when General Chariot and Cavalry is critically ill, even if he wants to summon the envoy to Xiangyang, I'm afraid he won't be able to send the order to Xiangyang."
"What should we do?" Liu Bei asked.
Shaking his head, Huo Jun said calmly: "There is no other way now but to trouble Zixuan (Wang Kai) to work hard for us."
Fortunately, Huo Jun got Wang Can to go south to Jiangdong and win over Wang Kai as a relative. Otherwise, how would Wang Kai be willing to help Jiangdong pass on secrets.If Wang Kai was expelled from Xiangyang City by Cai Mao, Kuai Yue and others, Liu Qi and Liu Bei would be deaf and blind, unable to understand the internal affairs of Xiangyang.
"Cai Mao and Kuai Yue have evil intentions, and we can only rely on our own strategies and the people on the left of the Yangtze River to resist the strong invaders."
Liu Bei took a sip of tea and sighed and asked: "The first attack on Jiangzuo was not stable. Fortunately, Wuhuan invaded in large numbers, and Cao Cao went north to Liucheng. Otherwise, Cao Cao went south with all his strength, and the outcome would be a matter of doubt."
After saying that, Liu Bei hesitated a little and asked: "Zhong Miao, now Cao Cao is heading north to Liucheng, do you think our army can take advantage of the situation and use troops?"
"If you want to invade the north, you can do it, but if you want to take the city, you probably can't."
Huo Jun explained: "Although Cao Cao went north to conquer Liucheng, he knew that we were waiting in the south and would have troops to defend him. For example, Xia Houyuan went north to conquer Changxi, but the Taishan generals also set up defenses in dangerous places. Moreover, Cao Cao also added troops to Hefei, and Hefei It cannot be overcome easily."
Not only that, Jiangzuo now needs time, in addition to letting the people recuperate.It is also necessary to train new recruits, build battleships, and forge armor.After all, if we send a large number of troops to the north, it is hard to say whether we can break the city, but we can definitely destroy the rhythm of Jiangzuo.
Liu Bei put down his tea cup and said with a smile: "Bei doesn't want to take the city in the north of the Yangtze River, but he is thinking about whether he can invade the Central Plains. Moreover, Changxi is being conquered by Xiahou Yuan because of our rebellion. I don't know if we can save it."
Speaking of Changxi, Liu Bei contacted him and asked him not to act rashly.As a result, Changxi saw that Xiahou Yuan had gone south and Xuzhou was empty, so he directly raised his troops to rebel.His rebellion also relieved Jiangzuo's military power in a sense.
Huo Jun thought for a while and then said: "It may be feasible. Let Jun think about it for a few days. If there is any gain, I should go to Jingkou."
"Can!"
Liu Bei seemed to remember something and asked curiously: "I heard that Zhongmiao ordered people to find merchants who know the Liaodong sea route, but is this the case?"
"Exactly!"
Huo Jun nodded slightly and admitted: "Jun once heard someone say that Jiangzuo is only a thousand miles away from Sanhan, and there is a sea route of two to three thousand miles to Liaodong. Now if a sea route can be opened to connect Liaodong, we can go to Jiangzuo Liaodong purchased horses to fill our Jiangzuo cavalry shortage."
"what!"
Liu Bei looked surprised and said: "Bei thought it was a rumor, but he didn't expect it to be true. Jiangzuo leads to Liaodong, and I only know about it now!"
