Chapter 520: The Second Southern Expedition
May 211.
The national capital is Yecheng.
Morning meeting.
Pang Tong, as today's military adviser on duty, is reporting to the imperial court on behalf of Prime Minister Yuan Tan.
Yuan Tan sat in the middle of the dragon platform to show his honorable position in the imperial court.
The officials were all standing below, and Wang Lang and other officials close to Yuan Tan listened to the spirit in their hearts, this is not an ordinary report, but their own future.
Ma Riyan and other widows are listless, after all, there is no future in sight in these reports.
The above Han Xian Emperor is like sitting on pins and needles.
Recently, the main work is to use the extra 10 billion, that is, the money given by Liu Bei and Sun Quanbai, to vigorously alleviate poverty.
There are no more poor households.
As a result of poverty alleviation, various indices such as GDP have risen, while various indices such as CPI have fallen.
The morale of the army was strong, and it was ready to unify the world.
Other how how how to drop.
Anyway, blow Ula Ulla's.
Wang Lang and the others were excited.
"Your Majesty is really a holy lord!" Wang Lang walked out and said.
"Mingjun!" Guo Tu and others.
Emperor Han Xian cried, obviously this was not about him.
Ma Riyan and others want to cry without tears, it's too shameless, Liu Bei and Sun Ce are too stupid. Zhuge Liang was really a village man, and he was all inside, but he was discovered at the last moment.
This is not here to make trouble, but to give away a big gift package.
Gave a gift package of 10 billion, how did you do it?
"Report, news from Xichuan!"
At this time, Wang Zhao came in.
"What news?" Yuan Tan asked.
"There is a big battle in Shuzhong!"
Wang Zhao explained, in short, Liu Zhang invited Liu Bei to resist the invasion of the Southern Barbarians at first, but later found out that Liu Bei turned out to be a nest of birds and doves, and was an enemy.
"Liu Bei wiped out Liu Zhang's army......."
"Liu Zhang had to ask Cao Cao to send troops ......."
After Cao Cao sent troops, he coerced Liu Zhang to go down to the field and give up Xichuan to him. He then defeated Liu Bei and got Xichuan. ”
Under Wang Zhao's explanation, everyone, including Yuan Tan, changed their faces again and again.
No one thought that in a month, so many things had happened in Xichuan, and even the situation in the world had changed.
Yuan Tan touched his chin, Cao Cao got Shu land, and the territory chased after him, which is not a good thing.
Wow, Emperor Han Xian screamed and passed out.
The Han Dynasty was destroyed. Ma Riyan also fainted.
Yuan Tan stood up, looked at the many people who had fainted, and thought to himself I haven't fainted yet, what are you fainting about?
But for Emperor Han Xian, among the princes of the world in the past, Liu Zhang and Liu Bei were both relatives of the Han family, and they were the hope of Emperor Han Xian.
As for Ma Riyan, it is the death of Emperor Han Xian, and there are also clansmen with troops and territory outside.
And now, it can be said, that the Han family has been completely wiped out.
However, at this moment, the military advisors of Yuan Tan's family became excited.
Lao Jia Xu was the first to stand up.
Pang Tong immediately blocked it, and said in advance: "Lord, now that our country is rich and the people are strong, and Liu Bei's defeat is a great opportunity for the southern expedition." ”
Yuan Tan thought about it.
…………
Changsha.
Liu Bei led 2,000 remnants of the army back to the base camp in embarrassment.
At this moment, Liu Bei wanted to cry without tears.
Everything is so perfect, who knows that Cao Mengde will be killed halfway.
Not only did Nishikawa not get it himself, but he gave it to others cheaply.
There is nothing more painful in the world than this.
However, Liu Bei was also helpless, who knew that Liu Zhang was so decisive and invited Cao Cao.
And Cao Cao's soldiers are strong and strong, Liu Bei only has 20,000 people, and there is no money and food, so it is normal that he can't fight.
"It's all Yuan Tan's fault!" Liu Bei roared inside the mansion.
After all, the lack of money is the root cause of failure. If you have money, you have everything.
After Liu Bei roared, he couldn't help but go to see Zhuge Liang.
Zhuge Liang hurriedly shook the feather fan, after all, he lost the huge sum of five billion. And now the plan to capture Xichuan has also failed.
Zhuge Liang also grabbed his hair behind his back, what went wrong, why was it all good at the beginning, and it was a complete failure in the end?
"Oh no, my lord, Yuan Tan Nanzheng is gone!"
Liao Hua rushed in and said in surprise: "The news that the spies got was just half a month ago, Yuan Tan swore in Yecheng and set out on an expedition, and 500,000 troops gathered from all over the country, claiming to be one million. ”
Yuan Million is here again!
Even Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were also frightened, after all, there was the entire Jingzhou last time, and the soldiers were full of food. This time, there is no military spending, how can you resist?
"Strategist, what can I do!" Liu Bei hurriedly said.
Guan Yu and the others were all anxious, while the newcomers, Fazheng, Zhang Song, and Meng Da, felt nothing. The three of them secretly hated themselves, they seemed to have seen the wrong person, and their future was completely gone.
Therefore they do not claim either.
Zhuge Liang hurriedly shook the feather fan and said, "Don't worry, lord. ”
Liu Bei grabbed his hair violently, it's not in a hurry now, I'm going to die in a hurry.
I only listened to Zhuge Liang's analysis, "Now that Cao Cao has newly acquired Shu land, it has been stolen, and no one is convinced, he wants to rectify, and there will definitely be no action." ”
"And if Yuan Tan wants to go south on a large scale, he needs to defeat the Eastern Wu Navy in Chibi."
"Although our army has been defeated now, the Jingzhou Navy is still there."
Liu Bei hurriedly said: "But we don't have funds!" ”
You must know that now the navy is fishing for a living, and it is a little bit away from rebellion.
Zhuge Liang immediately said: "Let General Guan Yu take the naval army to Chibi to help in the war, and Dongwu will definitely bear the military expenses." ”
Going to someone else's house for dinner?
Looks like a good idea.
"Yuan Tan can't go south." Zhuge Liang affirmed.
Liu Bei was a little relieved.
…………
On the other hand, in Soochow.
Wuhou Sun Ce is also struggling with funds, but he has a larger territory than Liu Bei, and there are local tyrants and gods in the territory, that is, the gate lord clan, so his life is slightly better than Liu Bei.
this day.
Sun Ce convened a meeting of the Jiangdong Gate Lords, and the topic was to sponsor military spending.
It's similar to the warlords in the old society who went to the local chamber of commerce to ask for money.
It's just that Sun Ce is resident, so he has to be tactful.
After all, the major families have thousands of customers, adding up to tens of thousands of people, and they can't be provoked if they are in a hurry.
The four major families of Gu, Lu, Zhang and Zhu are the leaders.
Hundreds of families are arguing with Sun Ce, and they are unwilling to pay.
"Lord, I have 10,000 tenants and 8,000 guests in my family, all of whom need to eat, and I really don't have any money." Zhang Zhaodao, the first minister of Eastern Wu.
"Yes, yes, there are seven or eight thousand people in my family."
"I have six or seven thousand in my family."
"Although there are only more than 1,000 people in my family, they are also people."
The heads of the families are complaining.
Sun Ce and Zhou Yu's faces changed greatly, are they here to complain? You've added up to more than 100,000 people, are you sure it's not a change of direction threat?
