Chapter Eighty-Eight: Abandoning Tuntian

When the guards at the tuntian saw Lord Xiangguo coming, they immediately opened the door and ran to lead Liu Bei's mount, and after Liu Bei dismounted, he led the mount to the nearest stable.

"Your Excellency, Captain Liu and General Zhang are over there!" The guards pointed to Liu Deran and Zhang Feidao, who were working in the fields.

"Well, I know, you guys are busy with yourself, I'll just go by myself!" Liu Bei walked over to Liu Deran.

"Deran, Yide!"

Liu Deran and Zhang Fei were bending down to reclaim the land at this time, and when they heard someone calling them, they looked up to see that it was the minister of state.

"Oh, brother, why are you here?"

"Big brother, you're here!"

Liu Deran and Zhang Fei put down the work in their hands, clapped their hands, and walked to Liu Bei's side excitedly and said, "Brother, why don't you come, let's prepare in advance, you see you don't even have a clean seat!" ”

"Oh, hey~ I'm fine, I'm just coming to see you!" Liu Bei looked around, saw a place that was not spared, and said, "Let's go and sit there!" ”

"Yes, okay!" Liu Deran agreed: "Come on, boil some water, and make a cup of tea for the Prime Minister!" ”

Liu Bei didn't squeak either, lowered his head as if thinking about something, and when he walked to the place, he stopped, and said with a sad face: "Deran, Yide, we may not stay here for long!" ”

"What! How so! When Liu Deran and Zhang Fei heard the news, they were immediately stunned and said, "Is it Liu Ping?" ”

Liu Bei nodded helplessly, and said: "In fact, there was a problem with our administrative strategy at the beginning, we should never get rid of the local forces and ignore them, how can we give them a position, so that they have a certain right to speak, now the contradictions between us and them have become inextricably linked, I am worried that they will take the opportunity to launch a mutiny when our troops are weak, and attack in groups, and at that time, we will all have to be in a different place!" ”

"Big brother, I'm afraid that he is a bird, as long as you say a word, I will kill him now!" Zhang Fei patted his chest and said.

"Third brother, don't be impatient!"

"Yide, don't make a mess now, let my brother finish talking first!"

"I ...... What a mess I am! Zhang Fei looked at Liu Bei and Liu Deran, and pouted aggrievedly.

"Yide is also a good heart, Deran, you don't want to be so Yide!" Liu Bei sighed and said, "Let's either attack Liu Ping now, or ...... Evacuate Plains County and find a new place to stay! ”

"Evacuate Plains County!" Liu Deran pointed to a large piece of freshly reclaimed land behind him, and said in surprise: "Then these jobs behind us are gone!" ”

"Such a big project, I also know that Deran and Yide have spent a lot of effort, but the situation is critical, and I have to let the two of you make psychological preparations in advance, we don't know what the enemy will fight back against us, so we can only prepare in advance!"

"What preparation?"

"Now that our strength is not as good as before, the food problem will not be as tricky as before, so I want to suspend this project first, organize the displaced and hungry people here into our army, and train them into an army, so as to expand our strength!"

At this time, Liu Deran lowered his head and said nothing, Zhang Fei looked at Liu Bei, then looked at Liu Deran, and said: "Big brother, the problem is that there are a total of 1,000 homeless people here, and we still have 1,000 soldiers and horses left, and the total is only 2,000. ”

"I know you may be resentful of me for lending 3,000 cavalry to Tai Shi Ci without authorization, indeed, sometimes I hate myself, why am I so stupid, why should I lend my own soldiers and horses when I have nothing to do?" Liu Bei sighed and said: "But then I thought about it again, this world is now full of darkness, people are deceitful, frequent cuts, for the sake of the land do not hesitate to kill loyalty, for the sake of power do not hesitate to support the army and self-respect, in their eyes, the court, the people, the right way of time, all of these are nothing, are empty, but have you ever thought that the society is so dark, someone has to stand up and add a fire to the dark world, when I heard the news that the teacher was angry because Gongsun Zan killed Liu Yu, Do you know what I think? Others can be cruel, others can be ruthless, but I can't, what I do is to declare to the world that the right path is immortal and righteousness will live forever! ”

At this time, Liu Bei unconsciously left tears.

"Brother, I know, I listen to you, I'm not doing it here!" Liu Deran also raised his head, sighed deeply, and said, "All the displaced people here should be organized into the army!" ”

Zhang Fei on the side saw that Liu Deran agreed, and he didn't know anything, after all, Tuntian was Liu Deran's painstaking project, and he was just a starter, he was all good, how could he have a bad reason, so he also followed: "Big brother, I Zhang Fei also listen to you!" ”

"Good brother!" Liu Bei patted Liu Deran and Zhang Fei on the shoulders and said, "It's good to have your support!" ”

"Big ...... My lord, the tea is ready, please use the tea! At this time, the guard walked over with tea, and when he saw that the minister was crying, he immediately didn't know what to do, and said tremblingly, and then looked at Zhang Fei and Liu Deran.

Zhang Fei looked at him like a bird, and suddenly became angry in his heart, and shouted loudly: "Damn, what are you looking at, don't get out of here, believe it or not, Zhang Fei stabbed you in a few holes!" ”

"Damn, quit, quit!" The guards were frightened by Zhang Fei and immediately ran away.

"Yide, I miss you on the way here, you can't be so rude to the soldiers, you have to be kind to the soldiers below!"

"Hey~ Big brother, these soldiers and their grandmothers are scolded, if you don't give them some color to see, they won't know who his grandfather is?"

"Hehe......" Liu Deran looked at Zhang Fei and said with a smile: "I see that soldier is older than you, and you also want to be someone's grandfather!" ”

"Hey~ I just want them to know that they are afraid, otherwise they don't know the big, there are no rules if there is no big, if there are no rules in the army, then how can the army be governed?"

"Since ancient times, the management of the army has been about both grace and power, how can you only talk about power and not grace!"

"I'm not with you, how can you Liu Deran know to raise the bar with me today!"

"Haha...... It's all their own brothers, jokes are jokes, don't hurt the harmony! ”

"I'm the biggest Zhang Fei, how can I be as knowledgeable as him!" After Zhang Fei finished, he gave Liu Deran a blank look.

Liu Deran spread his hands, shook his head helplessly, and said, "Yide, you ask someone to bring these homeless people to the barracks, just put them here!" ”

Zhang Fei listened to Liu Deran's words, glanced at Liu Bei, and saw that when Liu Bei signaled that he would do what Liu Deran wanted, he said, "I know, you and my eldest brother should go back first."

After Zhang Fei left, Liu Deran stood in place and looked at the vast land in front of him, which had been reclaimed.

"Deran, let's go home!" Liu Bei put his hand on Liu Deran's shoulder and said softly.

"Well, let's go!" Liu Deran reluctantly turned his head and followed Liu Bei back.

After Liu Bei and Liu Deran got on their horses, they set off for the county government.

"Where are we going to go?" Liu Deran rode his horse and turned his head and asked.

"Deran, to tell you the truth, I don't know where I'm going now, and I'm still hanging in my heart, like a headless fly, flying around, unable to find the edge!" Liu Bei smiled bitterly.

"Actually, we can't give up so early, at least we can fight for it, do we still have a chance to compromise now?"

"Finding them to compromise now is completely different from compromising with them at the beginning, the nature is completely different, the initial compromise is called broad-mindedness, being able to understand people, and being able to use people; Now compromising with them is an alliance under the city, this is fear, it is cowardice, once we compromise with them, then we are all inferior, and we will never be able to raise our heads in front of them! ”

"How can this work, no matter what, our people have to be the first, they are the second, how can it be reversed!" Liu Deran said: "Then let's wait, once there is a chance to leave, we have to seize it!" ”

"Yes, I see!" Liu Bei said guiltily at this time: "Deran, thank you for understanding my brother this time, if there is no support from you, my brother really doesn't know what to do, if there is no you, my brother is a person who no one wants, the enemy hates me, and my own people reject me, I really don't know what to do at that time!" ”

"Brother, let's not talk like this to our brothers, the two of us grew up together, we are also a family with blood relations, and we are the same grandfather, your father is my father's brother, such a relationship, we are like one person, your affairs are naturally my affairs, and your suffering is naturally my suffering, so this time I am not only helping you, but also helping myself!"

"What a good brother for me!" Liu Bei listened to Liu Deran's words and smiled with relief.

"Yun Chang, I guess I have a stomach full of resentment in my heart!" Liu Deran said: "He worked hard to train for us, but suddenly let an unknown general take away 3,000 cavalry at once, and we have lost a lot of money in this deal!" ”

"Hey~ Whether it's a big loss, we're not good now, blessings and misfortunes depend on each other, it's not clear whether it's a blessing or a curse, it's just that Yun Chang really needs to do some mental work, the teacher's death makes me still unable to come out now, I still have a grudge against Gongsun Chan for what he did, so I rarely take care of our internal feelings, it really shouldn't, so let's find a chance to talk to Yun Chang, I believe he will understand!"

"Well, that's fine, Yun Changzhi is in general, it won't be good!"

"Yes!"
