18 Chaos

This spring, there is obviously a shortage of rain and snow in various parts of the state, and the officials and elders in various places and the farmers are inevitably a little worried, and last year, the Chang'an government collected a lot of grain, and every household has no surplus grain at present, if there is another big drought and a bad harvest this year, it is difficult to imagine how the situation of the family can be maintained.

If you look at the situation of merging states from the state to the thirteen states of the Han Dynasty, it is already very good. In addition to Yizhou, which is partial to peace, and Jingzhou, which has always been rich, and Xuzhou, where there are few wars, there is not much difference, as for Yanzhou, which alternates locusts and droughts, Jizhou where Qingzhou and Lianxing soldiers are in the field, and Yangzhou has some signs of white bones exposed in the wilderness, and there are already some signs of the tragic phenomenon of no rooster crowing for thousands of miles, even if they are good at governing the country, such as Cao Cao, they have to implement a large number of military tuns, and grab grain from the teeth of various families and clans, which provokes Yanzhou to scold. In fact, in the past few years, there have been no locusts in various parts of the Han Dynasty, that is, drought or flooding, coupled with the continuous war, the endless soldiers and bandits, and it is not easy to maintain tens of thousands of troops. The year is like this, and I can't complain about Cao Cao.

If Liu Bei's annexed states, divisions, and Liangzhous were not for Liu Bei's friendship with Yizhou, Liu Yan, and Jingzhou Liu Biao, and they had always deliberately made friends, they could transfer a large amount of grain from Yizhou and Jingzhou. As for the Liangzhou where Qiang and Hu are mixed, it is difficult to avoid killing officials and plundering again, how can there be a people in Liangzhou, who are not hungry?

However, the grain in Yizhou and Jingzhou was not given in vain after all, not to mention that Shu Dao was difficult, and Jingzhou was still threatened by Yuan Shu, and there was no war all the time, so there was even less grain that could be sent to Liu Bei's territories. Gongsun Zhan of Youzhou also greeted Bingzhou several times and borrowed grain!

In addition to Gongsun Zhan and Liu Feng, the maiden family of another lady who has been subdued, the Xianbei tribes also pitifully asked for help here. Liu Feng treated these two families equally, and pushed this problem to Tian Feng who was cold-faced under the pretext of "studying behind closed doors", as for how much each family gets, Liu Feng really doesn't know.

The civil strife between the Yuan family and his son in Jizhou, Liu Feng has been closed, and the lack of military resources is also one of the reasons. However, after several battles between Yuan Tan and Cao Cao, Liu Feng could no longer sit down, so he held a meeting in Jinyang for three months, and as for the precept of "studying behind closed doors", he naturally took it out for himself.

Several years of indication, within Liu Bei's group, Wen Youtian Feng, Zhong Xuan, Xun You, Jia Xu, and the young Fa Zheng, Xu Shu, Zhang Ji, Sima Langwu, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun, Xu Huang, Zhang Yan, Zhang He, and the young Ma Yanxing, Zhang Xiu, Pang De, as for Liu Feng himself, Liu Bei is also a good hand at the battle, which can be said to be full of talents, which is not inferior to the Cao Wei Group in its heyday. However, the length of Liu Bei's group's battle line is also crowned by the princes and states, not to mention the fact that Liangzhou seems to be surrendered, but in fact, the dark tide is turbulent and the possibility of recurrence is extremely great. Luoyang and Chang'an are even more indispensable, heavily guarded, coupled with years of war, people everywhere have fled, and urgently need to resume production, all kinds of unfavorable and extremely constrained Liu Bei's group's assault ability.

Coupled with Liu Bei's own unstable foundation, all the way smoothly and suddenly to the top of the court, all the princes from all walks of life waited to see Liu Bei's soberness, Tian Feng was sober, Liu Feng did not dare to be careless, Liu Bei's group came down a few times, trembling on thin ice, trembling, and did not dare to cross the thunder pool half a step. However, the dispatch of Youzhou Gongsun Zhan's troops, Liu Feng, who has been "studying behind closed doors", can no longer sit and wait.

The military generals are Guan Yu as Zhang Yan, Zhang Hema is in the column, and the civil officials are Tian Feng as the order, and Zhong Xuan, Fa Zheng, and Xu Shu are in order. Fa Zheng's young face was full of excitement: "Gongzi Cao Cao has always been good at using soldiers, but this time he kicked the steel plate, I didn't expect Yuan Tan's father to have such a little ability, and Cao Cao has been on par with Cao Cao for many days, haha!" At present, General Gongsun sent troops to Hejian, and our army will be from the soldiers, and the Zhao State can sit on the benefits of the fishermen! ”

Liu Feng didn't have much excitement, just smiled faintly: "Xiaozhi always thinks well." ”

"Haha!" Fa Zheng laughed, but looked up at Tian Feng, with a not very comfortable look, and took it back in a sneer: "What the son is worried about is just grain and grass and weapons, in fact, with the prestige of my and the state army, as long as I bring enough grain and grass for a month, I can naturally sit and eat Jizhou!" ”

"What if it doesn't work out in January?" Zhong Xuan smiled and asked Fa Zheng.

"What Xiaozhi is talking about is too much to take for granted!" Liu Feng stopped his hand, stopped Fa Zheng's downward wave, frowned, and said: "Spring ploughing is imminent, the roads are muddy, and it is definitely not a good opportunity to send troops, although the Yuan and Cao families have been fighting for a long time, their vitality has not been injured, if they meet Youzhou's request, it is a little hasty." ”

Fa Zheng was stunned, and he couldn't imagine that Liu Feng had convened the meeting several times in the past few months, but he had come at the request of his father-in-law, Gongsun Zhan, to send troops, but he said such a thing. Xu Shu was also a little surprised, but he had been secretly speculating for many days, but he didn't have the same assumptions as Fazheng, nodded slightly, and didn't speak.

Ma couldn't sit still, stood up and said loudly: "Gongzi Jizhou was defeated by me and Jizhou, and he has already broken his courage, so I only asked a partial division to take Jizhou for Gongzi to see him!" ”

Zhang Yan and Zhang He said this, but Guan Yu's half-squinted eyes suddenly lit up, and he snorted coldly. Ma Dunjun's face turned red, Guan Yu was a military general in Bingzhou, and Liu Feng also called out respectfully, uncle, he despised him so much, Ma was a little unbearable, raised his chin and glared at Guan Yu: "General Guan thinks he said a big thing?" I hope that the military order will not take Jizhou to see you! ”

"What's the use of winning or losing, asking for your head!" Tian Feng frowned slightly and said displeasedly.

Guan Yufeng's eyebrows opened slightly, and when he glanced coldly at the horse brake, an indifferent high pressure approached the horse, and the breath between the horse seats suddenly condensed. Ma breathed slightly, and stared back at Guan Yu without fear, but he didn't pay attention to Tian Feng's words.

Young bravery!

Guan Yu slowly put away his prestige again, and his blatant refutation of the horse was more appreciative. Fa Zheng breathed a long sigh of relief, secretly took it, looked at Liu Feng, and complained in his heart.

Liu Feng said: "It is inevitable to send troops, but how to act must be done by the public and the state is tired of fighting for a long time, and we can't afford to make any mistakes!" But in his heart, he was secretly laughing, this horse did not know the height of the sky. But he also has the money.
