Shu Han of the Three Kingdoms I call the shots

Chapter 918 Situation in the North

On this day, the south gate of Chengdu city opened wide.

The officials in central Shu, headed by Zheng Du, the prefect of Shu County, lined up on both sides to welcome Kou Feng's return.

At this moment, everyone including Zheng Du was more or less excited.The barbarians in the south were pacified, which plagued hundreds of people in central Shu, even thousands of years of ethnic fighting.

It ended with bloody means by Kou Feng.

In addition, the last time, Kou Feng led the army to the north, and some of the ethnic minorities in Hanzhong were pacified, and they can live. At present, there is no other power in Shuzhong that can equal the Han people except for the respect of the Han people.

In other words, there is peace in Sichuan.

No matter what will happen in the future, but at this moment, Kou Feng and his Chu army's magnificent martial arts have been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

At the beginning, Kou Feng pacified Jiangdong, and people's hearts were unstable.However, after the First World War to pacify Sanyue, its popularity increased sharply.Now, it's like a replica of the original.

Kou Feng conquered Menghuo in the south and stabilized the middle of Shu.

Finally, when the commander-in-chief with the word "Chu" appeared, the officials calmed down the excitement in their hearts a little, and bowed their heads to welcome Kou Feng.

Soon, Kou Feng appeared in the south.

Dressed in armor, with a Chu sword on his waist, and riding a black cloud horse, he rushed towards Chengdu at the head of the horse.

"Your Majesty." Under the leadership of Zheng Du, everyone bowed to Kou Feng in unison.

"You are exempt."

Kou Feng got off his horse and helped Zheng Du up.Goodbye to Zheng Du, Kou Feng was also quite happy, this time the Southern Expedition seemed to be advancing triumphantly along the way, very imposing.

But Kou Feng knew that this was also inseparable from the transfer of Zheng Du in Shuzhong.According to Kou Feng's knowledge, the food for the Southern Expedition this time was basically not shipped from Jingzhou, and it was all local food in central Sichuan.

Under Zheng Du's dispatch, it was transported to Nanzhong little by little.Tens of thousands of civilian husbands were used.

Such a huge operation, stress.It was almost Zheng Du who resisted alone, and Kou Feng was extremely satisfied and appreciated in his heart.

In Zheng Du's mind, why not?

At the beginning, when he served Liu Zhang, although Liu Zhang was lenient and had the appearance of a benevolent king, he was too weak in martial arts after all.Moreover, he is procrastinating and hesitant to act.

As a result, the great foundation was handed over to others.When Kou Feng's Chu army entered Chengdu, Zheng Du was crying.At that time, Zheng Du would never have thought that he would help Kou Feng to stabilize the middle of Shu, and would also contribute to destroying the Nanman.

Today, seeing Kou Feng's triumphant face when he returned triumphantly, Zheng Du felt that what he did back then was an extremely wise decision.

In troubled times, use key points to achieve great things.Kou Feng also.People like Liu Zhang are just dead bones in the grave.

"I haven't seen you for a few months, but Mr. has become a little thinner." After Kou Feng helped Zheng Du up, he sized him up a little and sighed a little.

"That's not the case, Your Majesty?" Zheng Du said with a smile.

"Hahaha." Immediately, the two monarchs and ministers looked at each other, and they both burst out laughing.

During this period of time, they marched south to kill, walking step by step.The pressure is still relatively large, and therefore a little thinner.But now that the success is achieved, everyone knows that it is time to enjoy the blessing for a while.

After talking with Zheng Du at the gate of the city for a while, Kou Feng ordered Fazheng, and Zhang flew to camp outside the city to settle down.Generals whose families are in Chengdu can also have a three-day extension to reunite with their families at home.

In fact, the generals should not be given a holiday, because on the one hand, the army has to appease the dead or injured soldiers.Need manpower.On the other hand, Kou Feng also ordered the recruitment of strong men into the army to make up for the loss of the Southern Expedition.

Increase the number of troops in Chengdu to more than [-].

However, this time Kou Feng also considered human nature and did not strictly prevent the generals from going home.

After giving the order, Kou Feng, Zheng Du, Zhang Song and others entered the hall of Chugong Biefu in Chengdu.After sitting down with each other, Kou Feng asked Zheng Du: "Guyuan is in Nanzhong, and I don't know much about the situation in Shuzhong. Can you briefly explain for Gu."

In fact, Kou Feng is already very tired. He has been riding for so many days, and there are many mountain roads.I really want to lie down and rest, but Kou Feng attaches too much importance to the situation in central Shu and even the north.

Therefore, Qiang cheered up and asked.

"The situation in central Shu is very stable. In order to deceive Meng You, the king ordered the relocation of the family members and clans of officials, big and small, which caused a lot of trouble. But later, after the real intention of the king to lead his troops to the south was revealed, The officials are very supportive. The Nanman people are too evil. It can be said that the hearts of the people are happy when someone takes care of the Nanman people. Now, it is even more so when the emperor returns in triumph. I believe that the emperor has already experienced it when he was in the city. .”

Zheng Du said with a smile.

Zheng Du's words made Kou Feng think of just now.When they entered the city, they didn't come to Beppu all at once.Instead, surrounded by guards, he came back slowly.

During that part of the journey, many people shouted for Mr. Chu.Show him respect with great enthusiasm.

You know, Kou Feng defeated Liu Zhang, who was very popular among the people, and he only occupied Yizhou for a few months.People's hearts have already turned to Chu.

This is truly a miracle.

After thinking about it, Kou Feng said with emotion: "In fact, it is really easy to win the hearts of the people, as long as you know what the people need."

As he said that, Kou Feng raised his head and said: "When you are poor, you need food. When there is food but there are foreign enemies, they need a strong military force to support them. Find their self-esteem in front of foreigners."

"Today's Yizhou people don't have to worry about food and clothing, but they are troubled by foreign enemies. Soldiers lead troops to pacify them, and they obey the people's will."

"Yes." Zheng Du nodded.

From Zheng Du's mouth, Kou Feng has learned that Shuzhong is very stable.It's meaningless to delve deeper into this topic, Kou Feng asked instead: "What about Hanzhong, Ma Teng and Han Sui in the northwest? What's the situation?"

"The general over there in Hanzhong has already started to build a plank road, paving the way for the future Northern Expedition. As for the people's hearts, under the administration of Yan Taishou, there are also extraordinary gains. Everything is on track."

After saying this, Zheng Du paused for a moment, with a serious look on his face, and said, "As for Ma Teng, Han Sui, and Cao Cao, they will be in a lot of trouble."

"Oh?" Kou Feng was a little surprised, trouble?What trouble.

"Since these days, Cao Cao has been supporting Ma Teng and Han Sui. He not only handed over the Wei knife manufacturing technology to Ma Teng and Han Sui, but also supplemented their military rations, and even dispatched experienced Diannong Colonel. Organized Ma Teng and Han Sui's troops to carry out large-scale farming. To build up Ma Teng and Han Sui's fighting stamina. He also personally drew up the border and clearly divided the country. It also fundamentally solved the problem of Ma Teng and Han Sui. Teng, Han Sui's contradiction." Zheng Du said solemnly.

"Did you dig out your heart?"

When Kou Feng heard this, he really found it tricky.

Kou Feng is no stranger to Cao Cao's behavior of sending Wei knife manufacturing technology back and forth like broken jars.After all, Cao Cao supported Liu Zhang first, and then Liu Zhang supported Meng Huo.

It took Kou Feng a lot of effort.

However, before Cao Cao supported Liu Zhang, he just wanted to use Liu Zhang to ease him up for a while.He didn't really mean to strengthen Liu Zhang.

But today is different.

According to Zheng Du, Cao Cao is the skeleton of Xiangqiang Ma Teng and Han Sui.As we all know, Ma Teng and Han Sui are both strong soldiers and strong horses, but they have fatal shortcomings, that is, there are not many people under their rule, and there are no capable civil servants to govern.

The grain produced every year is only enough for expenses, and it is even difficult for Ma Teng to produce and sell himself.It's like a person who looks tall but has weak bones.

A little force, it may fall apart.

But now Cao Cao not only supported food and weapons, but even sent officials to help manage it.Obviously, they really want to strengthen Ma Teng and Han Sui, and look up to the expansion of Chu State in the west.

Now Kou Feng knew why Zheng Du felt dignified.If Kou Feng let Ma Teng, Han Sui would develop with peace of mind, and he might have ruled Daxing in a few years.

There is sufficient food and grass, and the soldiers are strong and the horses are strong.

The two combined hundreds of thousands of cavalry, which must have defeated Chu State on the plain.

That's why Kou Feng said that Cao Cao has dug his heart out.He is determined to use the sincere cooperation of the three families to resist the current aggressive situation of Chu State.

And, there is another benefit.

Ma Teng and Han Sui can be separated, and Kou Feng knows that the hatred between the two has been going on for decades, and it cannot be eliminated in general.

Both of them are suspicious people.It can even be said that it is easy to alienate, but with the addition of Cao Cao, it will be different.For a shrewd person like Cao Cao, it is impossible to reconcile and discord.

Such a situation is, whether it is the attack of Huang Zhong's troops arranged by Chu State in Yangzhou, or Xu Shu in Wancheng.Even Pang Tong of Hanzhong attacked the north.

Cao Cao, Ma Teng, and Han Sui can defend on one side, while the other can attack instead of defending, encircling Wei and saving Zhao.Or simply the whole army of Chu State will attack the Central Plains in the north.

Most of them will be stopped by Cao Cao, Ma Teng, and Han Sui.

Headache, Kou Feng also felt a headache.

However, there is one thing Kou Feng can't understand, why Cao Cao would let Ma Teng and Han Sui develop with all his heart, instead of being half-hearted, that is, let Ma Teng and Han Sui resist Chu, but can't let Han Sui Ma Teng grow?

Kou Feng raised this question to Zheng Du.

Zheng Du smiled wryly when he heard the words, and said: "I'm afraid it's still a matter of Yanzhou in the north, which will stimulate Cao Cao more."

Yanzhou?

Kou Feng was stunned when he heard this.In today's battle for the world, Chu State has already gained the upper hand.The large tracts of land south of the Yangtze River belong to the Kingdom of Shu.

A situation of confrontation between the North and the South has taken shape.It was nothing at all.But the key is the establishment of Yanzhou, which makes the balance of victory and defeat more inclined to Chu State.

For Chu State, Yanzhou is not only an enclave, but a base that can be attacked, retreated and defended.

Therefore, after thinking about it, Cao Cao finally made up his mind to support Ma Teng, and Han Sui competed with him.
