Reborn Duke In Three Kingdoms

Jingzhou, Xiangyang!

The news that Liu Xiu defeated Cao Cao's 800000 troops is like a hurricane spreading in Xiangyang.

Originally, Cao Cao's 800, 000 troops were killed, and people were terrified.

In private, many officials in Jingzhou have begun to prepare to surrender to Cao Cao and prepare for the future. But the wind suddenly changed, Liu Xiu with less than 30000 troops, defeated Cao Cao's 800000 troops, it is incredible.

For a time, Jingzhou, which had been in a state of panic, immediately changed.

No matter the officials or the common people, they all respected Liu Xiu like heaven and man.

Who can defeat Cao Cao's 800000 troops!

Only Liu Xiu!

Since then, Liu Xiu's position has been completely established.

Liu's prestige in Jingzhou has been completely surpassed.

When Liu biaogang died of illness and Liu Xiu was in charge of Jingzhou, or even set up three military barracks to control Jingzhou, although he was in charge of Jingzhou in name, in fact, many people didn't agree with Liu Xiu.

After all, Liu Xiu was too young to speak because of his ability.

Now with the victory of defeating Cao Cao's 800000 troops, Liu Xiu is a worthy hero.

Jingzhou's major families, the major celebrities, are no longer ambivalent.

In recent days, every day, the prefectural government has received a gift to congratulate Liu Xiu for defeating Cao Cao. However, in the face of this situation, Liu Xiu had no complacency except a knowing smile.

The defeat of Cao Cao in this battle did not lay the foundation for Liu Xiu to defeat Cao Cao, but gained more time and time to capture Jiangdong.

If the south is not stable and there is no stable rear area, Liu Xiu's plan to attack Cao Cao in the north is empty talk.

So after Liu Xiu won, there was no excitement.

Prefecture, backyard!

Liu Xiu sits in the yard, while Deng AI dances his sword in the yard.

Deng AI is now much taller and more handsome. At a glance, he seems to be a big guy. But in fact, Deng AI is less than 12 years old.

His early experience made him mature too early.

At the end of the sword dance, Deng AI came to Liu Xiu's side and said, "young master, how's my swordsmanship?"

"Not so much!"

Liu Xiu began to say a word, Deng AI immediately said: "my swordsmanship, master said good."

Deng Zhan was also in Xiangyang. Deng AI asked Deng Zhan for advice from time to time. His swordsmanship was very good. In Deng Zhan's eyes, it's quite good for Deng AI to have such composure and swordsmanship at this age.

Liu Xiu said with a smile: "otherwise, we can have a competition."

After hearing this, Deng AI seemed to encounter something terrible. He shook his head and said, "if you say it's careless, it must be careless, or you don't want to try the sword."

Once upon a time, Deng AI felt that his swordsmanship was not bad and asked Liu Xiu for credit.

I don't know. I was severely hit by Liu Xiu.

Liu Xiu offered to try the sword, but Deng AI agreed without thinking about it. As soon as they met, Deng AI regretted it. Liu Xiu's swordsmanship was merciless. He had no chance to kill him. He was totally one-sided.

After two times in a row, Deng AI learned to be good and no longer compared with Liu Xiu.

Liu Xiu said with a light smile: "boy, your swordsmanship needs to step into the arena, and you need to practice it slowly. You should practice your sword well."

"No!"

Deng AI agreed and took up the sword.

"Step on it! Step on it

A rapid sound of footsteps came from outside the yard.

At the gate of the courtyard, Deng Zhan appeared.

Deng AI bowed and said, "master!"

Deng Zhan nodded, then saluted Liu Xiu with his fist. He said in a deep voice, "my Lord, I have received the news from Yizhou. When Liu Zhang learned that Deng Xian had been killed and Zhang Ren had surrendered to his Lord, he was very angry and wanted to launch an army against him. But in the end, Zhang Song and Fazheng pushed it down. Liu Zhang has sent envoys to Xiangyang to ask for a statement. "

Liu Xiu said, "well, I welcome you! But who is the ambassador? "

Deng Zhandao said: "this time, the envoy was named Lingbao, a famous general in Yizhou, second only to Zhang Ren. It was Fazheng who helped Ling Bao. This time, Ling Bao and FA Zheng came for Zhang Ren's sake. "

Liu Xiu nodded. Now that he knew the intention of the other party, it was easy to do.

Liu Xiu asked: "Yizhou, do you know the news of Cao Cao's defeat?"

"Now, we should know. However, the news came to Chengdu only after Lingbao and Fazheng left Chengdu. Now that Liu Zhang has got the news, he doesn't know whether he regrets sending someone to Xiangyang to start a crime. "

Liu xiudao: "no matter what Liu Zhang thinks, you should try your best to put more people in Yizhou. Especially now that Cao Cao's 800000 troops are defeated, Jingzhou is in the ascendant, which is an opportunity to win over Yizhou's civilian and military generals. In addition, what progress has Jiangdong made? "Deng Zhan replied: "at present, Jiangdong has not won the battle with us. The situation is still deadlocked. "

Liu Xiu asked: "the spies in Jiangdong should be strengthened."

"No!"

Deng Zhan nodded, saw Liu Xiu wave his hand, and stepped down.

When Deng zhangang left, another servant reported that Kuai Liang and Yi Ji wanted to see each other.

In the study, the guest and host sit down.

Liu Xiu said with a smile, "Mr. zirou and Mr. Jibo are coming together. Is there anything important?"

Yi Ji took a look at Kuai Liang and motioned him to tell him.

Kuai Liang took a deep breath and solemnly said: "Lord, Jingzhou has been fighting since last year. No matter Jiangxia, Changsha or Nanyang, they are all consuming grain. This year, more food will be consumed. "

"Especially after the Lord took office, he strengthened the control of the army. Now the strength of the first, second, third, fourth and fifth armies in Jingzhou is close to 150000."

"These five armies need to consume a lot of food every day."

"With continuous wars and daily consumption, the grain accumulated in Jingzhou began to decrease by a large margin."

"Today's grain reserves are only enough to guarantee the grain at the end of next year."

"If there is a large-scale conscription, or if the war continues, the grain supply in Jingzhou will be difficult."

Kuai Liang said: "food is the most important thing for the people, and food is the foundation. Once there is a problem with food, Jingzhou will be in turmoil. Moreover, the Pang family, the Huang family, the Kuai family, and even other big families in Jingzhou have tried their best to cooperate with each other. However, in terms of food, there are really big problems, so we have to consider them later. "

Kuai Liang said: "the number of soldiers in the army has increased several times. Besides the soldiers who support the army, they also need to consume a lot of food."

Yi Ji zhengse said: "Lord, I'd like to join zirou in the hope that Lord will take advantage of the opportunity to defeat the 800000 troops of Cao army to temporarily suspend and rest. Jingzhou is not as good as Cao Cao. Unlike Cao Cao, it can collect grain from all counties. There are only a few counties in Jingzhou. If we want to collect grain, it will increase the burden on the people. "

What they said made Liu Xiu fall into silence.

Originally, Liu Xiugang defeated Cao Cao, and it was time for him to be complacent and intend to continue to expand his achievements. Even Liu Xiu has already considered it. Next, he will continue to use troops in Jiangdong.

Now when I heard what Kuai Liang and Yi Ji said, my heart was cold.

This is the reason why the foundation is weak.

Although Jingzhou Chengping has accumulated a lot of grain for many years, the annual consumption is very huge.

Especially when Liu Xiu expanded his army, he did not want to spend money on food.

Now, this situation is normal.

Liu Xiu took a deep breath and said, "Mr. Ji Bo, it's the end of June now. After a while, it's the harvest season. What's the growth of grain this year?"

With a smile on her face, Yi Ji replied, "it's been a good year. I'll consider it according to my consideration. After this season's grain harvest, the government will use the soldiers of various armies to reclaim the farmland, and then harvest another season next year. Then, in the next three to five years, there will be no food problems. After all, the farmland reclaimed by more than 100000 soldiers will be a huge amount of data. In addition, we can allow the people to participate and expand the scope of farming. "

After hearing this, Liu Xiu said, "I agree to your consideration. I will adjust my strategy in the near future. I will turn attack into defense. I will stop fighting for the time being

As soon as these words came out, Kuai Liang and Yi Ji's faces showed a smile and a sigh of relief.

Yi Ji said: "my Lord is wise!"

Kuai Liang arched his hand and said, "it's a blessing for Jingzhou that the Lord can make a quick decision and postpone the war."

Liu Xiu laughed and said, "don't praise them. We have to rely on them for the government affairs of Jingzhou."

After Kuai Liang and Yi Ji left, Liu Xiu began to write an order, ordering the armies to postpone the recruitment of soldiers, and then let Deng Zhan pass it on to each army.

After the news was sent out, Liu Xiu went to the backyard and took Huang Yueying out to go shopping. Now that there is a truce for the time being, Liu Xiu will just relax and go out with Huang Yueying.
