Chapter 548: Give it to people if you don't have money

You say there is really such a big battle this time? Can we fight for a few of these? It's impossible to synchronize this time, right? After retreating from the dynasty, Liu Yi walked with Pang Tong and Zhuge Liang, Liu Yi looked at Pang Tong and asked.

I always feel a little unrealistic, the Qiang people, the Huns, Shanyue and the Jiaozhou scholars, this day in the South China Sea and the North, even if they can be moved, but how to coordinate the time of sending troops?

"It is naturally impossible to send troops at the same time, there will be a sequence, for example, the Qiang people have been suppressed by Zilong in the past few months, there must be dissatisfaction, as long as Cao Wei can say that the Huns will attack, and there is no need to send people to lobby, those Qiang people themselves may directly take advantage of the weakness to attack, as for Jiaozhou Shixie is now old, no longer ambitious, and has been attached to Eastern Wu, if Cao Wei can persuade Eastern Wu, Shixie will attack and plunder the counties of Qiqi and Jianning." Zhuge Liang agrees with Pang Tong's point of view.

The price of the strong rise of the Han Dynasty is the disadvantage of diplomacy, when Liu Bei was alive, Shixie would at least give Liu Bei some face, Jiaozhou is located in Lingnan, in this era, it is a place where transportation and economy are not developed, Shixie is based on this, it also shows that he does not have too much ambition, after Jian'an accepted Sun Quan's appointment in fifteen years, he will no longer be used alone as a prince, but in Jiaozhou itself, the influence of the Shi family is great, no matter the orders of the court over there are not as good as the words of the Shi family.

In addition, whether it is the Qiang people or the Southern Xiongnu, they are more obedient to Cao Wei than to the Han, and these forces must still be in favor of Cao Wei before the Han Dynasty subdues them, and it will be easy for Cao Wei to mobilize.

"However, if this battle can be won, even if Cao Wei does not fight for an inch of land, the situation will be greatly improved!" Pang Tong grinned.

If this battle can block the siege led by Cao Wei, not only will Liu Chan's throne be stabilized, but the attitude of these surrounding forces towards the Han will also change.

"But if you really move troops, Zilong only has 8,000 people, even if you add the recruits recruited in the past two months, I am afraid that it may not be able to 10,000, and it will be difficult to defend the Qiang or the Xiongnu side, I am afraid that it will be difficult to defeat the two sides, and then send another person to guard the Huns." Liu Yi dragged his chin and thought.

After taking two steps, I suddenly realized that something was wrong, why did the other two people stop talking?

When he turned his head to look, he saw the two of them looking at him with a kind of 'I am very optimistic about you'.

Liu Yi narrowed his eyes, looked at Zhuge Liang, then at Pang Tong, and shook his head: "Don't pull me, I only supervise the construction of Xiliang, and I can't take care of the rest, and it's not my turn to take care of the rest." ”

"Actually......" Zhuge Liang said with a smile: "In order to facilitate the development of Xiliang, I have asked Your Majesty to order Pang De and Ma Dai to lead Lanchi recruits to garrison Xiliang, and in addition, Gongyan will temporarily take the position of Liangzhou, which can solve problems for Bo Yuan!" ”

Gongyan is Jiang Wan's expression, and it can be regarded as a series of talents in Jingzhou, as Liu Bei has become bigger and bigger over the years, the talents in his hands have never been lacking, and the Jingzhou talent pool is indispensable, such as Liu Yi, Zhuge Liang, and Pang Tong are all considered to be the first echelon of Jingzhou's talent pool, although over the years, Liu Bei has also focused on promoting and selecting talents in Shuzhong, but in addition to Liu Yi in recent years, because the academy has provided Liu Bei with a large number of grassroots officials in Shuzhong, most of the people in Shuzhong who are sincerely loyal to Liu Bei are military generals, and as for the ones who can be used, they are all early Dongzhou scholars, The real talents in Shuzhong, so far, there are only a few people such as Huang Quan.

Judging from Liu Bei's act of canonizing Huang Quan as a lieutenant, Liu Bei may not have the intention of winning over the heroes of Shuzhong, but it is a pity that the strategy of the Han Dynasty in recent years has paid more attention to the law and the reform of the system, and as a person whose interests have been damaged, don't expect those big families in Shu to have a great sense of belonging to Liu Bei's group.

But Liu Bei died, Liu Chan succeeded to the throne, but many people saw hope, recently, there have been many big families of scholars have chosen to join the office.

Zhuge Liang sent Jiang Wan to Xiliang to temporarily replace the driver, but he did not mean to cultivate a powerful figure of the Jingzhou faction.

Liu Yi looked at Zhuge Liang: "I think you can directly let Gongyan be the assassin of Liangzhou, why don't you drive it for the time being?" ”

"After all, the prestige is not as good as Bo Yuan, so how about temporarily assisting Bo Yuan to govern Xiliang?" Zhuge Liang asked with a smile.

"Huh~ Wait for me here?" Liu Yi shook his head and smiled bitterly.

"In fact, if you face Cao Wei this time, Bo Yuan is the most suitable person to take command." Pang Tong said with a smile on the side: "After all, this battle is mainly based on the imperial guard, but what Bo Yuan said is not bad, the construction of Xiliang has been delayed due to the death of the first emperor, and the billions of coins cannot be said to stop, so he wronged Bo Yuan to take care of the Xiongnu by the way, Pang De and Ma Dai, the two generals, have lived in Xiliang for a long time, and are proficient in military strategy, so they can help Bo Yuan succeed." ”

"Who is going to Shudi?" Liu Yi suddenly asked, what he was worried about was not Cao Wei, even if Cao Wei really attacked the west, Nanyang had a large number of defensive facilities left by himself, it was not easy for Cao Wei to attack Nanyang, what he was really worried about was that Dongwu raised troops down the river, although Jingzhou's troops were also a lot, Yueyang had Chen Zhi and Huang Zhong, and Jiangxia had Wenpin, but the development focus of the Han Dynasty in these years was in Shuzhong, and the development of Jingzhou was naturally a little sluggish, and Jiangdong had purchased a large number of equipment from the Han Dynasty over the years, even if it was cast by Liu Yi's disciples, It is not as good as the armament of the regular army of the Han Dynasty, but it is enough to pose a threat to the Han Dynasty, and it is even far greater than the Wei army on the water.

"The Great General and the Hussar General!" Zhuge Liang said with a smile.

"Do you need two generals to go with you for such a thing?" Liu Yi looked at Zhuge Liang in surprise.

"Your Majesty has died, the two generals have dispersed, if the two of them are separated again, I am afraid it will be ......" Zhuge Liang sighed, there are not many generals in the Han Dynasty, and there are only two of them, one is Wenpin, and now he is stationed in Jiangxia, and the other is Guan Yu, Guan Yu is the kind of military general who can control any kind of army, and it is indeed suitable for sitting in the rear, but Guan Yu is now a little less energetic, and now when he sees him, he can rarely feel the domineering spirit of the past from Guan Yu.

Zhang Fei is the same, so Liu Chan hopes that Zhuge Liang can give the two of them something to do, so that these two will not be decadent all day long.

In order to avoid accidents, Zhuge Liang also specially sent Ban and Guan Xing to the two, if Dongwu does not come, it is naturally the best, and the two generals should be allowed to relax, but if Jiangdong really calls, with them, not to mention anything else, as long as the two appear on the battlefield, they can boost the morale of the army.

"What about me?" Liu Yi can understand that these two people have been discussing with Liu Chan for a long time just now, and they have basically arranged the next things properly: "I don't know what the two prime ministers are going to let me do?" ”

"Bo Yuan is mainly responsible for supervising the construction of various places in Xiliang, there is no problem with grain and grass, but the words of this coin are ......" Zhuge Liang smiled bitterly: "Your Majesty does not know the depth of the treasury now, and he rashly promised before, Bo Yuan should know that the current treasury is not lacking, and there is no shortage of food, but the words of the coin are ......"

"Three billion is just the initial investment, I told you before, and now I have only been given two billion, it seems that the remaining billion is not easy to take for the time being?" Liu Yi was a little helpless.

"Well, I can allocate 500 million to Bo Yuan, and the rest can only depend on after this battle is over." Zhuge Liang smiled bitterly and nodded, what ultimately depends on the scale of this battle and how long it will last.

If there is going to be a war, food must come first, and this point, since the track was rolled out, Dahan has saved a lot of halfway consumption, and there is basically no shortage, but the second place is money.

Let's not talk about the soldiers, in fact, looking at the Three Kingdoms, the people who give money to the soldiers are also big men, but it is not necessary to send them, but weapons and equipment are money, and there are pensions for the families of the fallen soldiers, which one does not need money?

Fighting a war costs money, of course, if you can win in the end, you can still get some money back, but whether you can make money is another matter, after all, this time it is mainly based on defense, even if you win, it is good not to lose, and it is basically impossible to make a big profit.

"So, I'll have to find my own way with the rest of the money?" Liu Yi looked at Zhuge Liang and said.

"For the time being, if you can successfully retreat from the enemy, it will be the best." Zhuge Liang nodded and smiled.

"Then I'll have to have one more." Liu Yi said with a smile.

"Oh? Who? Zhuge Liang asked with a smile.

"Brother Zizhong." Liu Yi said with a smile.

Mi Zhu is half of the uncle, although the queen is not Liu Chan's biological mother, but she is single-handedly raised by Liu Chan, sometimes this grace will even be greater than the birth of grace, Queen Mi gave birth to a daughter, lost in the war that year, never found again, and then nothing came out, Liu Chan is treated as a son, and Liu Chan is also quite dependent on Queen Mi, the relationship is even better than ordinary mother and son, and therefore, Mi Zhu is now after Liu Chan ascended the throne, was named the ruling Jinwu, but now most of the time is at home all day reading books, raising birds and the like, Very little governance.

After all, he now also needs to avoid the dictatorship of his relatives, and Mi Zhu's ability is not in the military, he was a huge rich man in Xuzhou back then, and later when Liu Bei was in Jingzhou, Liu Bei's money has always been raised by Mi Zhu.

Since the imperial court can't give it to itself, it can only think of its own way, Mi Zhu is very capable in business, so Liu Yi wants Mi Zhu to help.

"The words of the Marquis of Qu ......" Zhuge Liang thought for a while and said, "But you need to ask the Marquis of Qu." ”

After all, Mi Zhu is now also a relative of the emperor, and he is ranked in Jiuqing, even if he is the prime minister, this kind of character is not something you can adjust if you say it, and you have to agree with others.

"Good!" Liu Yi nodded and said, "Tomorrow I will set off for Xiliang, if it is done, I can let Brother Zizhong bring others to Xiliang to find me, as for where...... Let's go along the northern land to the area around Jincheng. ”

There are some things that you can't hide.

"Okay."
