Chapter 3: The Assassination
In the small courtyard behind Wangjiang Tower, more than a dozen sturdy men were wielding their blades in the courtyard.
Zhou Shan walked in, and these people immediately stopped.
Zhou Shan looked at these people and said, "Everyone, raise soldiers for a thousand days, and use them for a while!" Now is the time to put you to use! ”
"We are deeply favored by the Governor of Zhou, and we can't repay it! You must go to the soup and fight the fire, and you will never give up! More than a dozen people said in unison.
"Good!" Zhou Shan nodded: "Everyone, now that Liu Bei has arrived at Jiameng Pass, your target this time is Liu Adou!" ”
"Lord Zhou, that Liu Xuande is also in Jiameng Pass, do you want us to ...... together" As he spoke, one of the big men made a movement to wipe his neck.
Zhou Shan frowned, and then said, "Liu Bei has a lot of guards!" But this time Liu Bei didn't take Zhao Yun with him when he went to Yizhou! What is the strength of that Chen Zhi, I don't know, if I can kill Liu Bei together, of course it will be better! It doesn't hurt if you can't kill it! But this time. Liu Adou must die! ”
……
Jiameng Pass is said to be a pass, but in fact it is a small city. As the first line of defense against Zhang Lu in Hanzhong, Jiameng Pass was built extremely tall and strong. Coupled with the dangerous terrain, in fact, there is only a small section of the wall facing Zhang Lu in Hanzhong, which can really be said to be a one-man pass.
Although Jiameng Pass is a frontier position and may face war at any time, as the nearest passage between Hanzhong and Bashu, there is still an endless stream of merchants coming and going to Jiameng Pass.
Bashu is known as the land of abundance, rich in products and mild climate, so there is no shortage of materials in Shu, especially Shu brocade, which is the favorite thing of the nobles of the Central Plains; Hanzhong is also rich in products and can be completely self-sufficient, so it stands to reason that there is no need for trade between the two sides.
However, if Shuzhong merchants want to transport Shuzhong's specialties to Sili and other places, it is the most convenient to pass through Hanzhong.
Hanzhong is Zhang Lu's territory, and at the same time Zhang Lu is the leader of the Wudou Rice Sect, so Hanzhong can be regarded as a ******** place, in Hanzhong, almost all people believe in the Five Dou Rice Sect.
Speaking of which, Zhang Lu is still very good to the common people, so under Zhang Lu's rule, the merchants of Bashu will never be forbidden. As long as the merchants passed through Hanzhong and paid enough taxes, Zhang Lu would not embarrass these merchants.
But Liu Zhang was different, Liu Zhang was afraid that Zhang Lu would attack, so he ordered his generals to strictly guard Jiameng Pass on weekdays. No one is allowed to pass through, for fear that there will be spies in the Han Dynasty who will get in. A trade route that was originally very smooth, but because of Liu Zhang's order, it became impassable, and the merchants in Shuzhong had to take a detour elsewhere.
After Liu Bei arrived at Jiameng Pass, he learned of this situation, so he ordered someone to open Jiameng Pass and allow merchants to pass, and for a time, the people of Yizhou rejoiced, and everyone recited Liu Bei's merits.
Liu Bei did this as a good way to buy people's hearts, but at the same time, unconsciously, Liu Bei also offended someone. That is Deng Xian, the general under Liu Zhang.
Deng Xian is a famous general in Shu, and together with Zhang Ren, Ling Bao and Liu Bi, he is known as the "Four Masters of Bashu". A few years ago, the town guard Jia Mengguan was Deng Xian.
As the main road in and out of Xichuan, the oil and water in the middle are very large. Especially after Liu Zhang ordered the blockade of Jiameng Pass, businessmen could not enter and exit, and Deng Xian took advantage of his position to secretly smuggle goods, and made a lot of money from it.
Now Liu Zhang handed over the Jiameng Pass to Liu Bei, Deng Xian was transferred to Chengdu, and Liu Bei opened the Jiameng Pass even more, making Deng Xian unable to smuggle, which cut off Deng Xian's financial route. So Deng Xian was the first to jump out against Liu Bei's entry into Shu.
Chengdu.
Deng Xian stood in the courtyard with a pale face, since Liu Bei came, he had lost his main income, and he could no longer spend money lavishly, which made Deng Xian feel very depressed!
"Damn Liu Bei!" Deng Xian scolded secretly. After Liu Bei came, Zhang Lu in Hanzhong was also much more honest, which made Liu Zhang very happy, it seems that it is impossible to drive Liu Bei away through Liu Zhang, and the only way to do this is to find a way for now!
"Liu Bei, since you can't get along with me Deng Xian, then don't blame me Deng Xian for being ruthless!" There was a murderous aura in Deng Xian's eyes.
……
Jia Meng Pass.
Liu Bei took Liu Chan to walk on the street of Jiameng Pass, followed by Chen Zhi and two other guards, and the people around him saw that it was Liu Bei, and they all gave Liu Bei the way, and at the same time looked at Liu Bei with reverence.
Since Liu Bei opened Jiameng Pass, there is an endless stream of businessmen, and Jiameng Pass has returned to its former prosperity, which was not very big in the city of Jiamengguan, but now it is already a forest of shops, and the people of Jiamengguan attribute all this to Liu Bei, so now Liu Bei is in the hearts of the people in Jiameng Pass.
And Liu Bei naturally does not stay in the barracks all day, and in his spare time, he will go to the street to walk around and chat with the elders in Jiamengguan, which is also a good way to buy people's hearts. It is precisely because of this that in just over a month, almost everyone in Jia Mengguan knows this Uncle Liu Huang.
In the small restaurant next to the street, several big men dressed as businessmen were quietly staring at Liu Bei and his party. The leader took out a piece of paper from his arms, on which was drawn the appearance of Liu Chan.
"That's right, that's Liu Chan! Prepare the brethren for action! ”
"Uncle, okay!" A beggar walked towards Liu Bei and his party, and when the beggar saw Liu Bei dressed brightly, he immediately walked over and said tremblingly: "Uncle, it's okay!" ”
When Liu Bei saw the beggar, he reached out and took out a few copper coins from his arms and handed them to the beggar.
Liu Chan next to him saw it and secretly stuck out his tongue. I didn't expect Liu Bei to be such a big person, and he still carried a lot of copper coins when he went out, and he was not afraid of sinking.
The beggar excitedly went to pick up the copper coin, and thanked him: "Thank you, uncle, thank you!" ”
Liu Chan glanced at the beggar, and suddenly found that the beggar's outstretched hand was covered with calluses, and judging from the position of the cocoons, it must be the kind of person who often holds weapons to grind out.
Liu Chan instantly woke up to the fact that this person was in disguise!
At this moment, a sudden change protruded, and a dagger suddenly burst out from the beggar's sleeve and stabbed at Liu Bei.
"Be careful, lord!" At the same time that Liu Chan had just reacted, Chen Zhi behind him had already rushed over and punched the beggar in the arm. Immediately after, the sound of a broken arm was heard, and the beggar screamed and fell to the ground.
"Kill!" With a loud shout, the vendors in several stalls around him suddenly drew their swords and killed Liu Bei.
On the small building, those burly men dressed as businessmen were taken aback when they saw this scene.
"Boss, what's going on? These people are not our people! The person who spoke had a distinct Koto accent.
It seems that these people are going for Liu Bei, telling the brothers, don't act yet, wait and see! Keep an eye out for Adou's movements! ”
