Lu Bu’s Life Simulator

Vol 3 Chapter 214: bottom line

I ate a meal of Gudu cooking for most of the day, mainly because there was no entertainment in this area of ​​Shu, I could see the sun for a few days at the end of the day, and it was cold.

In the afternoon, Huang Quan, who was sent by Lu Bu to Nanzhong to discuss matters, came back.

"Gongheng came just in time. Let's eat together, warm up, Lao Dian, and let someone make some meat." Seeing Huang Quan's return, Lu Bu waved to him, and then asked Dian Wei to go and get some more meat. meat to eat.

"Thank you, lord!" Huang Quan did not refuse, he sat down according to his words, took the tableware and chopsticks handed over by Dian Wei, and began to tell Lu Bu the harvest of his trip to Nanzhong.

"My lord, that's the way it is. If you want to open commerce, you need the imperial court to recognize the status of the Southern China vassal state. All ethnic groups in the southern border are willing to pay tribute every year, but they do not accept the government's governance!" Huang Quan looked at Lu Bu and said solemnly.

"Is this what the barbarians meant, or the Yong family?" Lu Bu fed a piece of meat to the little guy and asked casually.

Huang Quan didn't speak, but sometimes, it means a lot to not speak.

"What is this? Do you want to be a king?" Dian Wei looked at Jia Xu and Fazheng beside him in confusion, feeling no different from those kings in the Western Regions.

"It's different." Jia Xu shook his head and said, "This is to ask the imperial court to cede Nanzhong out, and they did what the princes of the world dared not do."

No matter whether it is because of interests or ideas, the princes of the world agree on one thing, that is, no matter how they fight, the world should be unified, and the territory of the world belongs to one country, and what the Yong family did this time, I don't think I am a country with Dahan, and if I want to cut off this part of the southern border, I will be a foreign country with Dahan from now on.

"What's the use of that place in Nanzhong? Why does the lord feel unhappy?" Dian Weijian asked in a low voice.

Lu Bu was angry, but he didn't show his teeth and claws. Although he seemed calm, he had been with Lu Bu for so many years. Dian Wei knew exactly what was causing Lu Bu's anger. Although the smile on his face didn't change and he looked very casual, the whole thing was clear. The room was filled with a depressing aura, and even Xiao Baizhu, who had been calling for food before, was silent, lying quietly at Lu Bu's feet.

"Under the whole world, is it not the king's land, don't care whether this land in the southern border is desolate or not, but it is also a big Han. Today, there are no princes in the world who even cede the land and claim to be kings, but suddenly there is one who wants to split my Han territory forever. This is not only testing the bottom line of the court, but also provoking the lord." Jia Xu shook his head and sighed.

This is considered to be against Lu Bu. Since Lu Bu took charge of the government, he has always tried his best to maintain the majesty of the Han, defeating Yuan Shu, Pinghetao, and deterring the Western Regions, so that no one in the world dares to underestimate the righteousness of the court.

But now, the things that the princes of the Central Plains dare not do have been done by a frontier family, and there is no need to make any excuses. This alone is enough for Lu Bu to send troops.

"My lord, this Yong clan is naturally worthy of death, but if you want to subdue Nanman and make him stop doing anything else, he just thinks that he should be subdued." Fazheng bowed to Lv Bu.

"Gongheng, what do you think?" Lu Bu didn't answer, but asked lightly.

"I think what Mr. Xiaozhi said..." Huang Quan didn't finish his words.

"I'm asking you what you think!" Lu Bu raised his head and looked at Huang Quan, the smile on his face always had a heart-pounding feeling.

Fazheng and Jia Xu immediately fell silent. Obviously, Huang Quan wanted to put this matter on the heads of the Nanman tribes at first, and was suspected of killing the Yong family, but this time the Yong family met Lv Bu's bottom line.

"Yong Shi...you should be punished!" Huang Quan sighed and bowed to Lu Bu.

"After taking the Yong family, Gongheng will execute it." Lu Bu nodded, raised his double chopsticks and said, "Continue to eat!"

At the end of this gudu cooking, the taste has obviously changed, and the time has come for the southern barbarians.

Huang Quan came out of the governor's mansion, looked back, and finally sighed, this lord can't be fooled, what the Yong family does not do well, even if they gather a crowd to rebel, they may not have the eyes they have now, but now they are hurting themselves. .

Although Lu Bu didn't show anger or any other expressions just now, Huang Quan could feel the oppression at that moment. Sometimes he really didn't need to show his anger. Huang Quan really realized what it means to not be angry and be proud of himself.

ah~

As for why they didn't say, it's not because of their deep friendship with the Yong family. It's just that at this stage, the Yong family is afraid that it will be difficult to be kind. At the same time, the hatred between Lu Bu and the scholars will be even deeper. The only thing to do is to perish. Although Huang Quan voted for Lu Bu and served Lu Bu as the mainstay, he was also a nobleman himself. He hoped to ease the conflicts between the two sides and find a balance that would allow the two sides to coexist peacefully in the future.

The Yong family is really damned!

The appearance of the Yong family made this possibility even smaller!

On Lu Bu's side, since he has decided to fight, he must be fully prepared.

You can't let anger dictate your rationality. This is also Lu Bu's standard for using soldiers now. Sitting in the position of head coach, Lu Bu can always keep his head calm.

"My lord, the last general or General Wen Yuan can take command of this battle, so why should the lord come?" The next day, when Lü Bu decided to go to Nanzhong himself, several generals were a little puzzled, and Zhang Ji asked in confusion.

Merely Nanman, who was beaten by Zhang Ji last time, is it necessary for Lu Bu to come?

"This is to cede land!" Lv Bu looked at Zhang Ji and said, "The Yong family will be destroyed, but how to deal with the various tribes of the southern barbarians, can Anmin be prepared?"

"This..." Zhang Ji has a headache. Lu Bu has said more than once that Nanman wants to fight, but also pulls. The ultimate goal is not only to make Nanman stop causing trouble, but more importantly, to help Nanman develop and help Nanman. They built cities, improved the environment, and developed commerce with various ethnic groups in Nanman, so that Nanman could integrate into the Han people through these.

After all, compared with the nomadic peoples in the north, the threat of the southern barbarians is actually not great, and their habits are close to those of the Han people. There should be interest to attract, so that they are willing to take the initiative to communicate with them.

It's not difficult to defeat Nanman, but let's not talk about Zhang Ji, look at the world, how many can you do?

"Go get ready, ask Xu Huang to replace Wen Yuan to guard the fish belly, and he will also go out with the army!" Lu Bu motioned.

Zhang Liao was later appointed by Lu Bu as his general to guard Bashu. How to deal with the relationship with Nanman, and how to smooth it out, this Zhang Liao knew very well, and Lu Bu also needed to teach him.

"Well, I'll do it here at the end." Zhang Ji agreed and turned to leave.

From Shu County to the southern border, the road was difficult, the miasma and swamps were everywhere, and it was not suitable for too many people. Lu Bu chose 30,000 elite Shu troops to go on the expedition.

As for why the more elite Guanzhong army is not used, it is not because the Guanzhong army is overqualified, but the state of the Guanzhong army has obviously been declining after entering Shu. I heard that the climate and environment of Nanzhong are even worse, so Lu Bu plans to use the Shu army as the main force, while the Guanzhong army focuses on The supervisor of the new plank road in the north.

As for the generals, Jia Xu stayed behind and was in charge of commanding and transporting. He no longer wanted to go into the mountains and walk on the plank road. Fazheng served as the military commander to sacrifice wine, Huang Quan served as the marching Sima, Dian Wei served as the general guarding the army, and Zhang Liao and Zhang Ji served as the leaders. The generals, Zhang Ren, Gan Ning, Pang De, and the surrendered Wu Yi, and other generals in Shu had a total of 18 members.

"My lord, it is difficult for this new rail car to travel on normal roads. If wooden rails are laid in the southern border, it will be easily damaged!" Ma Jun brought the craftsman who helped him to talk to people to find Lu Bu.

The new rail car is different from his unicycle. It has four wheels. It is highly dependent on the wooden rails, and at the same time, it also relies on manpower. People need to press the crowbar on it constantly. Run the horse, but at least it's faster than using people to carry food.

The structure is also simplified by Lv Bu many times, and it can accommodate four people. The warehouse carts in the rear are connected by chains. The four people in the front only need one person to keep pressing the crowbar, and the other three take turns to take over, so as to ensure the delivery speed. .

However, this kind of rail car has very strict requirements on the track. Under normal circumstances, it can walk on the road, but it is easy to damage the wheels, and at the same time, there is no way to control the direction.

Therefore, in this expedition to Nanzhong, it is delusional to want to lay this kind of rail car in the counties of Nanzhong. It is not that it cannot be laid, but it is easy to be damaged. Railcars are very convenient, but in a war, it is easy for people to follow the railcars to find out their food routes~www.readwn.com~ This is undoubtedly unwise, so Ma Jun feels that he should give up putting railcars into the battlefield use as well.

In the future, if the Central Plains is conquered, rail cars can be used for the allocation of internal materials, which can save a lot of manpower. Just like Qin Shi, rail cars are used instead of manpower to quickly transport materials to various places.

For example, from Guanzhong to Nanyang, or from Guanzhong to Luoyang, having a rail car will be much more convenient and save a lot.

Lu Bu nodded. Although the railcar was made, he also knew it couldn't be used. Looking at Ma Jun, he smiled and said, "Deheng just continues to be in charge of the new plank road. As for this expedition, he can dispatch some craftsmen by my side. Deheng doesn't need to follow."

Ma Jun is now the governor of Shu Dao. As for the expedition to Nanzhong, he should continue to use a wheelbarrow to send him.

"Here!" Ma Jun bowed and said.

"My lord, the food harvested last year was not much, but the food and grass confiscated from various families were enough to supply this expedition. If the autumn harvest is reached, now the people's hearts have stabilized, and they can buy back some food from the people, which is enough to meet the needs of the expedition. Conquest." Jiang Xu found Lu Bu, handed the material account book to Lu Bu to see, and then suggested.

"The autumn harvest... it's almost there." Lu Bu looked at the account book, and then smiled, "Let's start transporting grain and grass."

"Here!" Jiang Xu agreed, turned around and went to work.

At the beginning of the sixth year of Xingping, three months after the pacification of Bashu, Lü Bu led the army again to expedition. This time, his goal was to solve all the hidden dangers that may exist in Bashu before leaving the land!
