Chapter 280: Expedition

"Good wine opens the way, silver trumpets for money, and the dart bureau sends good wine everywhere, and at the same time sends the money from all over the place back to Jingzhou with a swagger, lord, it's a pity that you don't go to be a profiteer!"

Pang Tong saw Liu Yong's personally planned plan to jump into business and admired the five-body throw, but in Liu Yong's ears, no matter how he listened to it, he felt that the irony was stronger.

"Does it really make you noble scribes feel inferior and difficult to ascend to the hall of elegance? Don't you really find out that the reason why Jingzhou is strong and prosperous and can rise strongly, in fact, is the reason why there is enough money and food? If Cao Cao is not short of money and food, I will assert that he has already pacified the prefectures and counties of Hebei two years ago! Liu Yong wanted to yell at them.

Liu Yong knows better than anyone else that the ultimate fight in a war is the economy, and without prosperous economic conditions, there will be no abundant materials to ensure the supply of military supplies, but people in this era are limited by their thoughts and do not understand this truth at all.

Liu Yong finally chose to be silent, he didn't want to give them more details to popularize common sense and thinking in all aspects, he couldn't be busy.

"Lord, since it is so smooth, there should be a third step, right? Isn't it time to do it? Mi Zhu and Chen Qun were even more interested in Liu Yong's ways of doing business, and hurriedly asked.

"It's still early, wait for the time!" Liu Yong left a sentence that could not be reconciled, and he no longer paid attention to this matter, and let Chen Qun and Mi Zhu do it on their own.

"Where are Kong Ming and Zilong in Yizhou now?" Liu Yong asked about the current situation in Yizhou.

Pang Tong heard that Liu Yong took the initiative to ask about the battle in Yizhou, and immediately felt shocked, it turned out that the lord was not drunk by the smell of copper, and fell into the eyes of money, but he was still worried about this important event, and hurriedly reported: "Kong Ming and Zilong have broken the rebels of Zhao Wei of Bajun, and are marching all the way to Guanghan, and are about to arrive in Deyang." Deyang only Zhao Wei's 5,000 men and horses, not to be afraid, Zhao Wei is now blocked by Liu Jiyu in the area of the new capital, is in a stalemate situation, I heard that the lord accepted Liu Zhang's request for help, has retreated, ready to transfer to Qianwei County, converge there rebels to capture Chengdu in one fell swoop. ”

Liu Yong thought for a long time: "Shiyuan, what should be the plan now?" ”

At this time, Zhao Wei was already afraid, and he had the intention of retreating, Liu Zhang must bite tightly, the two will definitely fight to the death, at this moment, the lord has two choices: one is to bite Zhao Wei tightly, and work with Liu Zhang to annihilate the rebels in Guanghan County in one fell swoop. But this is not quite in line with the intentions of the lord, so we have a second way, stationed in Fuxian, occupy this dangerous pass, can advance or retreat, sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, and wait for them to kill each other, and when one of them is defeated, send troops to take it in one fell swoop and seize Chengdu! ”

Liu Yong thought for a long time and kept his head down.

After a long time, Liu Yong raised his head: "I have to go to Sichuan in person!" ”

"This ...... This ......" Pang Tong was surprised before, but he was not sure, he didn't expect Liu Yong to really plan to enter Sichuan, he was still a little surprised.

"There are pros and cons for the lord to enter Sichuan, and the advantage is that the lord enters Sichuan, Liu Zhang will definitely attach great importance to it, and it should be extremely welcome, and it will also give strong support to the people of Sichuan, and it will also give great encouragement to the people of Sichuan. The disadvantages are also very obvious, there should be many people in Shuzhong who will have hostile thoughts, and guarding against the lord will make the plan of attacking Chengdu more difficult. Pang Tong was very embarrassed for Liu Yong to enter Sichuan in person.

Liu Yong smiled faintly: "Since ancient times, everything is not full of variables, there are pros and cons, and it is difficult to be 100% of the thing." Plans are in the sky, seven points depend on strength, and three points have to rely on luck, if the destiny is in me, I will definitely be able to succeed! ”

Pang Tong arched his hand and said: "The lord is free and easy, and he can see it clearly!" ”

Liu Yong waved his hand: "Hehe, I just feel it, everything still depends on the planning of you great strategists, and you generals need to work hard!" ”

Pang Tong hurriedly surrendered his hand: "These are the duties of subordinates!" However, if the lord enters Sichuan, someone must be in Jingzhou, I don't know who the lord thinks can be the next big job? ”

"Sitting in Jingzhou, the literati must have Lou Zibo, he is steady, both offensive and defensive, and enough to convince the public, and two people are also needed, Zhuge Ziyu and Liu Ziyang are on the line, Guan Yu is in Wancheng, Zang Ba is in Kunyang, Wenpin is in Runan, Gan Ning is in Yuzhang, Gao Ran is stationed in Anhui County, there should be no worries, as long as Jiangdong is allied with Jiangdong, Jingzhou is not hindered!"

Liu Yong died carefully, and did not find any loopholes, so he immediately decided. The next day, it was announced in the court, and it immediately made the hall full of discussions. The civil and military forces all want to make achievements, therefore, no one opposes Liu Yong's entry into Sichuan, plus Liu Yong has always been used to being the master, many things are just taken out to be notified, everyone can see that Liu Yong's mind has been decided, so even if someone has a different opinion, they will naturally not stand up to provoke Liu Yong's displeasure, and they all agree with it.

I don't have any opinions on Liu Yong's arrangement. Seeing this, Liu Yong's eyes swept around: "After I leave, all affairs in Jingzhou can be decided by Lou Zibo, and when I am away, his orders are equivalent to mine, and you must obey them!" If there is something important that is difficult to decide, you can send someone to deliver the news to me. ”

Lou Gui had already been privately recalled to Xiangyang by Liu Yong, and immediately went out to receive the order: "Thank you for the trust of the lord, the minister will definitely ensure that Jingzhou is safe." Then he turned to the public and said: "The lord trusts the old man, and when the lord is not in Xiangyang, he will act on his behalf temporarily, and I hope that everyone will work together in the future to ensure that Jingzhou is foolproof, so that the lord has no worries!" ”

"Mr. Zibo is serious, the lord has an order, we will naturally obey it, and we will definitely obey Mr. Zibo's dispatch!" Chen Qun immediately came out of the ranks, and others also expressed their positions.

"Monarchs and ministers work together, and their profits are golden! With your help and suggestions, Jingzhou will definitely get stronger and stronger! Liu Yong encouraged again, which made the morale of the full house high.

"Herald: Enter Sichuan in three days! Wei Yan led 10,000 horses for the front army, Huang Zhong led 10,000 for the rear army, I led 30,000 horses for the middle army, Huo Jun followed me to obey orders at any time, Pang Tong was the military division, Ma Tan was in charge of joining the army, Liu Ziyang was responsible for the supply of grain and grass, and the rest of the main generals had to obey the dispatch. Liu Yong announced loudly.

Individuals received orders one after another, and immediately went out to receive orders.

Three days later, the wind and the sun were beautiful, the spring was just right, the lieutenant colonel of Xiangyang City displayed flags on the field, the battle flags were hunting, and the soldiers of Jingzhou were lined up with high morale, and the scene was majestic and majestic. Liu Yong looked at the three armies, and when the time came, he got up and waved the flag: "Go!" ”

Suddenly, 50,000 horses left the city in order to send off and bless the people of Xiangyang, rushed to Yizhou, and rushed to the fierce battlefield!
