Chapter 435: Placement Completed
Placing Liu Xie in Nanzhong was an idea that Liu Feng had been considering long before he went to Luoyang, and at this time he had already decided to move the center of his power to Xiangyang, and he was even more determined to place Liu Xie in Nanzhong.
After several years of his own development in Chengdu, the three forces that were placed by Liu Feng in Nanzhong to develop and restrain each other: Liu Zhang, Zhang Lu and Meng Shu have all recognized Liu Feng's status in Yizhou, they are only in the counties that Liu Feng divided into his own counties, except for dealing with small bandits, they basically will not rashly use troops abroad, and until now they still strictly maintain the number of troops that Liu Feng gave them before, and never exceeded.
And to place Liu Xie in Nanzhong, Liu Feng naturally can't divide Liu Xie into a territory with great fanfare, and give him thousands of sergeants, once he does that, Liu Xie's identity and status will definitely arouse suspicion, and it won't take long for someone to see into this matter and inform Cao Zhi, so that Liu Xie will fall into a crisis again.
Therefore, Liu Feng decided to place Liu Xie in the place of Liu Zhang, who he thought was the most reliable in his heart, Liu Zhang and Liu Xie were both members of the Liu family, even if Liu Feng showed Liu Xie's identity to Liu Zhang, Liu Zhang would not easily reveal it, so that Liu Xie would not have to be placed alone in the rather dangerous place in Nanzhong, and Liu Xie could be under Liu Zhang's protection, which was a way to kill two birds with one stone.
Liu Xie's matter, Liu Feng knew that he would never be able to fake his hands to others, so after the matter of going to Xiangyang was determined, he decided to send Liu Xie to Liu Zhang's territory as soon as possible.
"Nanzhong? But the land west of Yizhou is full of barbarians? Liu Xie still knows a little about these remote places, and when he heard Liu Feng mention Nanzhong, he couldn't help frowning, in his opinion, he was alone, if he arrived in Nanzhong, it was unknown whether he could survive, and how could he spend the rest of his life there.
Liu Feng saw the worry in Liu Xie's heart at a glance, and couldn't help waving his hand and laughing: "This matter is a long story, but Nanzhong at this time is by no means the Nanzhong you thought in your heart before, and Liu Zhang, the Yizhou Mu before me, is a person of the same clan as me, the son of Liu Yan, who is living peacefully in a fief in Nanzhong at this time, I want to send you to Liu Zhang's side, Liu Zhang's temperament is gentle, and he will not embarrass you, so that in his territory, no matter where you go or what you want to do, no one will interfere, how?" ”
While listening to Liu Feng's situation in Nanzhong at this time, Liu Xie's brows, which were already slightly frowned, gradually stretched out again, I have to say that Liu Feng's consideration of this matter is still very much in line with Liu Xie's mind, Liu Zhang, he has often heard them talk about it when Cao Cao was still alive, and every time Liu Zhang is mentioned, he uses some cowardly and incompetent words to describe it, but it is precisely because of this that Liu Xie believes that Liu Feng's words are indeed true at this time.
"So good! It's all up to the general's arrangement! Liu Xie breathed a sigh of relief at the moment and arched his hand.
"This matter is sooner rather than later, and I will arrange some people to send you to Liu Zhang today."
After Liu Feng finished speaking, let Liu Xie prepare in the house first, and then went to look for Li Chuang, after completing the task of Yingchuan, Li Chuang and the shadow guards under his command got a lot of rare rest time, Liu Feng wanted to maintain the sufficient mystery of the shadow guards, so he didn't want the shadow guards to appear frequently, but at this time, because Fei Yuwei was almost all requisitioned by Liu Feng to supervise and cooperate with the relocation of those officials, Liu Xie's matter could only fall on Li Chuang.
On the same day, Liu Feng and Li Chuang personally led more than a dozen shadow guards to escort Liu Xie to the place where Liu Zhang, who was not very far from Chengdu in the Nanzhong territory.
When Liu Zhang arrived, it was already dark at night, and the shadow guard outpost had already informed Liu Zhang of the matter, so when Liu Feng and the others arrived, Liu Zhang was dragging his family to greet him outside the county seat, and when he saw Liu Feng arrive, he thought that Liu Feng wanted to come suddenly to see if he had done anything unrighteous here.
But to his surprise, as soon as Liu Feng and others were let into the mansion, Liu Feng signaled Liu Zhang to retreat, leaving only Liu Zhang, Liu Feng, Liu Xie and Li Chuang in the house.
Liu Feng's behavior really made Liu Zhang a little confused, because Liu Xie, a person who looked like a weak scholar, stopped here, and Liu Zhang really didn't know what role he was.
Of course, in the next second, Liu Feng personally opened his mouth to relieve Liu Zhang's doubts in his heart.
In the early morning of the next day, Liu Feng, Li Chuang and others still returned to Chengdu according to the same route, while Liu Xie was left by him by Liu Zhang's side, and at the same time, there were two shadow guards, and the only task of these two people was to protect Liu Xie's safety. And Liu Zhang's attitude towards Liu Xie after Liu Feng left also proved Liu Feng's judgment of him.
After settling Liu Xie, Liu Feng knew that what he was going to face next was a rather tricky problem, and its difficulty might even be greater than the more than 800,000 troops led by Cao Cao himself in Chibi back then, but this time, he had to resist, and if he resisted this time, he would have unlimited possibilities and a lot of advantages. He can still only shrink into a state like Yizhou, and this time the fanfare move of the capital will also become a joke among the ministers under his command, so this time he has no way out, he can only move forward.
Three days later, Liu Feng was already sitting on the court hall in Xiangyang City according to the agreement, the court hall here is more spacious and bright than Chengdu, and the people standing in front of his hall are still the same people who were originally in Chengdu, although they still have a trace of fatigue on their faces after a long journey, but obviously, they are at least not disappointed with this new environment.
Seeing the expressions of the courtiers, Liu Feng nodded slightly, looked at Lu Su, who was standing in front at this time, and asked directly: "Is there any news from Nanyang in the past few days, and what is the movement of Wei State?" ”
Lu Su originally thought that since Liu Feng had arrived in Jingzhou, the first thing he would do was to replace himself, the person in charge of Jingzhou, with a more capable person, but Liu Feng's first sentence was obviously different from what Lu Su thought.
