On the third day, Liu Yan, who had been in a fainting, came to his senses again, and he immediately asked people to call all the Chinese martial arts in Fuxian County to the bed, and Liu Zhang and the others realized something, and ordered everyone to be informed with a sad heart.

More than half an hour later, everyone arrived, and even Yan Yan received an order to come immediately.

Liu Yan looked at the people in the room with difficulty and said, "I decide...... Passing on the position of the pastor of the state...... Yu ...... Zi Liu Zhang...... Princes...... It's all my attachment...... Friend...... Please treat me with respect...... Final Decision...... Zhang'er is young...... I hope that the princes will support you well, and you will ...... We will continue the foundation of Yizhou...... Rest assured, my move is not hasty, I ...... ...... has been inspecting Zhang'er for a long time, he is definitely a person who can be entrusted with great things, if there is help from all the princes...... He will surely be prosperous in the state day by day......"

The Liu Zhang brothers listened to Liu Yan's words and did not express any surprise, Liu Yan's rumor that Liu Zhang's matter was already a lice on the monk's head - obvious.

Seeing that everyone didn't answer, Liu Yan couldn't help but say, "What...... You...... You guys...... I haven't ...... yet Die...... Are you about to rebel? ”

Everyone looked at each other, and then said in unison: "My subordinates are willing to serve Gongzi Zhang, and from now on, I will obey Gongzi Zhang's order, and I will die without regrets!" ”

"Good...... Good...... Sometime...... You will find out...... Today's choice is...... What...... How wise......" Liu Yan showed a hint of a smile, turned to Liu Zhang, and said, "Zhang'er, the weight of Yizhou...... After the bear, it will be ...... It's up to you to pick and choose, listen to more things...... Uncle's words...... Think twice about everything...... Don't bring harm to the people of Yizhou......"

Liu Zhang cried: "Father's teachings, children always remember ......"

Liu Yan looked at the other three sons again and said, "Fan'er, Li'er, Mao'er, Zhang'er is your younger brother, and you will ...... in the future Help him a lot...... Remember...... Brothers...... Heart, its profit is broken ......"

The three elder brothers also cried and agreed to Liu Yan's words.

Liu Yan looked at his four sons and said, "If you do something like a brother's wall...... Don't come to see me when you die......"

The four of them hurriedly responded.

Liu Yan looked at his wife and muttered: "If you go for your husband, don't be sad...... Mrs. couldn't bear it anymore and cried bitterly.

Liu Yan's cloudy eyes didn't feel the old tears, and suddenly, he straightened his waist, and his mouth shouted "Kill Lu ......" and then passed away.

The cry in the room shook the sky, and Liu's mother saw that her husband had passed away, and she was so sad that she immediately fell into a coma. Liu Fan hurriedly called the maid and sent him to a courtyard that was a little far away and seemed quieter.

After sending Liu's mother back to the room, Liu Fan came to Liu Zhang and said, "Ji Yu, my father has passed away, in order to ensure the stability of my Yizhou, please take over as the state pastor immediately......

"Big brother...... My father's bones are not cold, if I ......"

Liu Wei also said: "Ji Yu, everyone has heard my father's will, the so-called snake without a head is not good, please immediately obey your father's order and immediately take over the position of state pastor......"

"However, my father's revenge has not been avenged......"

Liu Fan said: "It is precisely because your father's revenge has not been avenged that you have to immediately take over the position of state pastor, and then lead the army to avenge your father......

Yan Yan said: "Childe, I have heard of the order of the ancestor with our own ears, I am on behalf of the Yizhou soldiers, and I am willing to ask the prince to inherit the position of the state pastor immediately......"

A group of civil and military officers thought of Liu Zhang's more than 20,000 tigers and wolves in Chengwan, and asked Liu Zhang to succeed him in unison.

Liu Zhang no longer shirked, and announced that he would take over as the pastor of Yizhou before his father's body, and everyone immediately changed their words to "Lord Gong".

Liu Zhang took over as the state pastor, and the first thing he did was to mourn for Liu Yan......

Fifteen days later, the county guards of all counties in Yizhou (except Hanzhong) went to mourn in person and saw the new lord.

Liu Zhang ordered people to spend half a month to build a mausoleum for Liu Zhang at the foot of Mount Emei, and under the escort of the funeral procession more than five miles long, Liu Yan's coffin was buried in the mausoleum, and an era ended......

Liu Zhang, who ascended to the throne of the state shepherd two years earlier than in history, was not very happy, he had psychologically accepted Liu Yan's father, but this father died two years earlier than in history because of his arrival, does this mean that he killed him?

After burying Liu Yan, Liu Zhang, who was dressed in filial piety, summoned the county guards to discuss the matter, he did not make any adjustments to the county guards, everyone still performed their original duties, and he only had one requirement - soldiers! He wants to take revenge on Zhang Lu, Hanzhong is the barrier of Yizhou, and his status is extremely important, he must be in his own hands, otherwise he always feels that there is a knife hanging over his head! And the father's hatred is not shared, how can he not revenge it? There is another point, at this time the best time to attack Zhang Lu, firstly, the mourning soldiers will win, and secondly, the Zhanglu Wudou Rice Sect was founded, which has not yet been popularized, or has been delayed for a long time, so that the influence of the Five Dou Rice Sect is becoming more and more serious, and then it is not easy to win the support of the people of Hanzhong.

After some careful calculations, Liu Zhang finally squeezed out a total of 10,000 soldiers and horses from various counties.

Liu Zhang handed over the affairs of Chengdu to Zhao Wei, Zhang Song and Bing Cao in Yizhou, and Huang Quan was jointly managed, and Wu Yi was in charge of the Fuxian garrison. Although there are two thieves among these people, and the other two also surrendered to the enemy when they were cornered, Liu Zhang has just taken over as the state pastor, and his reputation is completely lost, so he can only be temporarily retained. And whether it is rebellion or surrender, there are still many years to go, Liu Zhang can be deployed calmly, and it is still very safe for the time being.

In 191 AD, in the autumn and September, on the ninth day after Liu Yan's burial, the eighteen-year-old Liu Zhang led an army of 30,000 and 20,000 people Dai Xiao to go out to defeat Zhang Lu to avenge the country's hatred (the national revenge naturally means that Zhang Lu did not respect his orders and cut the land as the king).

Liu Yan entered Yizhou in the past two years in Yizhou to implement benevolent government, the people deeply feel its virtue, learned that he was killed by Zhang Lu, are very sad, sad and indignant, Liu Zhang's requisition of the people's husband to transport military food and materials notice just posted, just three days of effort there are more than 20,000 volunteers, Liu Zhang sighed the people's heart, the old and frail, overwhelmed people after the exclusion, left 20,000 years of strength.

Since stepping on the plank road, Liu Zhang knew that this was the real "Shu Road Difficulty", and for most of the day, the army walked on this road called the plank road. These so-called roads are often located on the mountainside, and at the foot are wooden planks inserted into the belly of the mountain, which are less than a foot wide, and are covered with attics to protect them from corruption. It takes a lot of courage to walk on such a path. For example, the most elite British army, in the face of ten times or a hundred times the enemy, they will not be the slightest afraid, but when they just stepped on this plank road, after feeling its thrill for the first time, they were all frightened, and they slowly moved forward without squinting, fearing that if they slipped under their feet, they would fall off the cliff. However, the local soldiers and horses in Yizhou regarded it as nothing, and some talked and laughed as if they were traveling, squinting at the snail-like British army from time to time, and fiercely "retaliating" against them who were angry at the time. Even the 20,000 people who pushed wooden oxen and horses or carried burdens were also walking like flying.

Speaking of this wooden ox and flowing horse, the name is still Liu Zhang's name, after all, it is too "vulgar" to call it a wheelbarrow, so he unceremoniously borrowed Master Luo's invention for use. The functions and principles of the wooden cow and the flowing horse are the same, the difference is that the wooden cow is larger and can carry a weight of 400 catties, and the "Y" shaped handlebar needs to be operated by two people; The flowing horse is slightly smaller, and can carry a weight of 1780 pounds. Although it looks simple, it is not easy to start construction, mainly because the wheel production is very troublesome, the requirements are very precise, and skilled workers need to be carefully made, so it is extremely time-consuming. Liu Zhang was in a hurry to attack Zhang Lu and didn't have time to wait, and one day when he went out in a carriage, he suddenly thought of why not use the wheels of the carriage instead? He immediately had a new wheelbarrow based on a horse-drawn carriage develop, and a prototype was soon built. Because the wheels of the carriage are very large, the "cargo box" of the wheelbarrow made by the wheelbarrow is correspondingly larger, and it is very difficult for one person to operate, and there is a "wooden ox". The wooden oxen and the flowing horses were built at the same time, saving a lot of time in building wheels, and finally within the time required by Liu Zhang, 3,000 wooden oxen and 1,700 flowing horses were built. In order to speed up the journey, Liu Zhang sent 10,000 people to take turns to rest the method of operation, although the cost increased, but the speed of the march was also a lot faster, the pressure of the people was greatly reduced, and Liu Zhang, who had gained a great reputation among the people, affirmed his decision. Similarly, the remaining 10,000 people who carry the burden will only bear 8,000 according to Liu Zhang's request, so as to ensure that the 2,000 people are resting at any time.
