Chapter 64: Huang Zhong Returns to Shun
"Well, there's nothing to do with you, you wait for the scene to be dealt with quickly, properly handle the injured, and then wait for the new county order sent by Lord Taishou to come."
Liu Cong did not intend to pursue the county soldiers, everyone happily accepted the order, after counting, in the melee just now, five county soldiers were killed, and more than 50 people were injured, which shows the lethality of Liu Pan, Huang Zhong and others.
When it was almost cleaned up, a team of cavalry arrived in Linxiang City, and it turned out that Qin Shou took thirty people to the stable, and someone went to Linxiang City to report Han Xuan, because in the end, Liu Pan was still Liu's cousin's nephew. There are still a few smart officials in Youxian County!
When someone came to Linxiang City, Liu Cong simply ignored it, lest Han Xuan have an idea.
It's just that after such a fuss, Liu Pan and Huang Zhong are not a taste. I think that the two generals who were famous in the county at the beginning, but now they are bullied by a county commander and a county lieutenant, and I have to sigh that the world is cold. Especially Liu Pan, he is still Liu Cousin's nephew.
However, Liu Cong felt that Qin Shou had helped him a lot, in the melee just now, Huang Zhong was extremely brave, and at this moment he could no longer excuse his old age.
And the wanton behavior of Qin Shou and others also made Huang Zhong feel that it was indeed not a good way to be so idle, and he couldn't even protect a small stable, which was really ashamed.
When everyone returned to the stable, before Liu Cong could speak, Han Yi spoke first: "It's not a little girl, I want to say more, two generals, the rise and fall of the world is the responsibility of the husband!" The two of you are good at martial arts, and you sigh to yourself. But Yiyi is a girl who wants to serve the country in the army. Now that the second son has come thousands of miles to invite, what are you hesitating about? ”
"The rise and fall of the world is the responsibility of the husband...... Liu Pan and Huang Zhong whispered in unison.
"Yes, this is what the second son said, my father said that the second son is probably the pillar of my Han Dynasty, and the two generals will not insult your talent if they follow the second son!"
I love you to death, Yiyi, Liu Cong shouted in his heart. I didn't expect this tomboy, who looks heartless, to be so powerful at a critical moment.
was said by the little girl, Liu Pan looked at Huang Zhong, and Huang Zhong looked at Liu Pan. The rise and fall of the world is the responsibility of the husband, and the two generals and the second son will not insult your talent!
Han Yi's short two sentences can be described as resounding, which deeply touched the two of them.
Liu Cong saw that the time was almost up, so he took Han Yi's words: "Yes, two, since my father entered Jingzhou, there have been disputes in the world, but Jingzhou is temporarily comfortable. Now Cao Cao is powerful, and Sun Quan in Jiangdong often harasses my border people in Jingzhou. Although Cong has great ambitions, he is lonely, and I hope that the two of them will not be disliked, and Cong thanked the two for the people of Jingzhou. ”
"Second Son......"
"From the younger brother ......"
Thinking that this Liu Cong did come thousands of miles to invite himself, and helped him redeem the bow for the first time, today's stable rebellion, the son also stepped forward and killed Qin Shou, what Liu Cong did in Nanjun Huang Zhong still heard of it, before seeing Liu Cong, Huang Zhong was still aggrieved for criticism, and thought that Huang Zhong would rather let the young Liu Cong serve as the Taishou but abandoned Liu Pan, and now it seems that Liu Cong won the position of Taishou by virtue of his own ability.
"Huang Zhongmeng's son will not give up, and he is willing to follow his son!"
"General Xie Huang!"
"That being the case, I have nothing to say, just go with you to Gangneung!" Seeing Huang Zhong's statement, Liu Pan was also very happy that the two of them would soon be able to lead troops to fight again when they went to Jiangling, and they would no longer suffer from today's anger in the future.
"Second son, I have made a great contribution, can you accept me as an apprentice? Don't chase me away, okay......"
"No way!" Although Liu Cong is indeed very grateful to Han Yi, Han Yi really helped a lot during the trip to Youxian, proving Liu Cong's identity at the critical moment, and moving Huang Zhong at the critical moment. But there is a lesson from the divorce, Liu Cong really didn't dare to take Han Yi in.
But Han Yi has his own set, and the most important thing is that Han Xuan doesn't care about it! And Wei Yan, Huang Quan and others no longer rejected her so much after getting along with Han Yi for a short time. It gives Liu Cong a headache!
Since we are going to Gangneung, the stables in Youxian County also have to be dealt with. Liu Cong was reluctant to let those horses go, so he bought them at the official price and entrusted Han Xuan to send them to Jiangling County. Some of Huang Zhong's old subordinates who followed Huang Zhong and raised horses went to Jiangling first.
Liu Cong and the others prepared to return to Linxiang to meet Han Xuan and then go to Lingling, and Liu Cong's next target was Jiang Wan, a native of Lingling!
As one of the four phases of Shu and Han, Jiang Wan's status in Liu Cong's eyes is second only to Zhuge and Pang Tong. Now that Liu Pan and Huang Zhong are newly obtained, plus Wei Yan and Gan Ning, there are gradually more military generals, and there is only one Zhuge in terms of civil officials, and the next thing is to belong to Liu Ba and Zhang Bo, so it is even more important for Jiang Wan.
Historically, Jiang Wan, as Zhuge Liang's successor, judged the situation and made bold reforms in strategy, replacing "offensive as defensive" with "defensive counteroffensive" to carry out strategic layout, closed off the people, and greatly enhanced the national strength of Shu Han. Hou Wan was stationed in Hanzhong as a general, and made a careful study of Zhuge Liang's Northern Expedition strategy, he thought: "In the past, Zhuge Liang peeked into Qinchuan, the road was dangerous and difficult, and the competition could not be overcome, so it was better to go east by water." It is more than a boat, and wants to attack Wei Xing and Shangyong from the Han Dynasty. ”
And Liu Chan put forward three good strategies: "East and West Strength", "Fu as the Base Camp", and "Jiang Wei Staying in the Cool". However, God was jealous of talents, and just when Jiang Wan was about to show his ambitions, he unfortunately died of a sudden illness.
I have to say that in terms of defensive counterattacks alone, Jiang Wan is much wiser than Zhuge Liang. Although Zhuge Liang did his best to die, he also forcibly crusaded against Wei, which made the treasury empty and full of internal contradictions, which was also the fundamental reason for the destruction of the first Cao Wei later.
If you can invite such a political talent for your own use earlier, it can also reduce Zhuge Liang's burden, and let him free up his energy to develop equipment.
Liu Cong still didn't beat Han Yi after all, and Han Yi also brought a maid Han Yu this time, fortunately, there was a companion on the road, the two shared a carriage, and the men all rode horses.
In this way, Liu Cong and his entourage have changed from six to ten. Ten horses galloping on the avenue are very eye-catching. Because Liu Cong asked Wei Yan, who had a training task, to take the war horses of Youxian County first, and return to Jiangling first with the help of the soldiers of Changsha County, and by the way, he also reported Liu Cong's whereabouts to Wen Ping, Zhuge Liang and others.
Before leaving, Han Xuan called Liu Cong aside, and Liu Cong thought that he wanted to take care of his baby daughter by himself. never thought that Han Xuan didn't mention Han Yi at all, but asked Liu Cong to take time to visit Liu Du, the Taishou of Lingling. It turned out that what Liu Cong had done in Changsha in the past few days made Han Xuan vaguely feel that it must be this second son who will be in charge of Jingzhou in the near future.
Therefore, as a colleague, Han Xuan still knows something about Liu Du, and Lingling County, where Liu Du is located, is the most populous army in Jingzhou's existing seven counties except Nanyang, with 300,000 more people than Nanjun, and it is close to Lingnan, there are many ethnic minorities, and its status in Jingzhou is also quite important.
Liu Cong naturally knew Han Xuan's good intentions, and it was not easy for Liu Cong to travel south this time, and it would indeed be of great benefit to him to establish a good relationship with the Taishou of a county in the future.
Of course, Liu Cong's main target is still Jiang Wan. After everyone arrived in Xiangxiang, they rented a small courtyard to live in. First, there was enough time to understand Jiang Wan's whereabouts, and it also gave the two girls a chance to visit places outside Linxiang. When the trip to Youxian County ended in a hurry, Han Yi was very dissatisfied!
According to Liu Cong's inquiry, Jiang Wan did not live in Xiangxiang County, and after further investigation, the news he got was that Jiang Wan went to the Lingling County Administration to find Liu Du a month ago. Liu Cong thought about it, it's bad, Jiang Wan won't go to Liu Du to ask for an official, right? If that's the case, I'm afraid it's not good for me to blatantly dig into the corners. Besides, it is also a county guard, Liu Cong can't give the county to Jiang Wan.
Liu Cong wanted to buy some suitable gifts in the city, and went to visit Liu Du and Jiang Wan the next day.
The two girls were so excited when they heard that they were going shopping, and they were reluctant to go back for a whole afternoon. Liu Cong had to fulfill the wishes of the two and walked around Xiangxiang City. I didn't prepare to go back until nightfall.
When the carriage was about to arrive at the campus where Liu Cong and others were temporarily rented, the two girls were poking their heads out, happily watching the scenery of the "red light district" with "red sleeves full of buildings", Han Yi also observed the reactions of Liu Cong and others from time to time, for the sake of image, Liu Cong had to sit authentically on horseback, looking ahead, Han Yi covered his mouth and snickered from time to time when he saw this scene.
