Chapter 349: Causing Trouble
There is nothing to do in the world, and there must be trouble. (Pinyin for biqi u)
If others don't give birth, Yang Xi will come out to stir up the situation.
In view of Liu Bei's repeated attacks on Xiling City of the Chenhe Chamber of Commerce, resulting in the loss of manpower and financial resources, and once again captured Xiling City, destroying the ancient city of Xiling City, Yang Xi decided to ask Liu Bei for war compensation.
Yang Xi had not asked for it before, because Liu Bei did not get any compensation, and Hanzhong and Yang Xi were far apart, and it was inconvenient not to border.
Now that Liu Bei has won the land of Shu, Yang Xi raised the matter.
Yang Xi demanded that Liu Bei should compensate the Chenhe Chamber of Commerce for one million stones, otherwise you will do it.
On the letter, Yang Xi's wording was harsh, Liu Bei committed Jiangxia several times, but he didn't say anything, now that you have Shuzhong, you have money and things, you should be compensated.
It's not that you don't report it, the time has not come.
Liu Bei was nerve-wracked, and Zhuge Liang was speechless.
This is the request of the red fruit.
One million stones, don't be kidding, one million stones can eat more than half a year for an army of 100,000.
The Chenhe Chamber of Commerce does not lack this bit of food, but what it lacks is a statement.
For Liu Bei's previous crusades, there were already people in Chenhe District who had ideas in their hearts.
The Chenhe Chamber of Commerce is so powerful, why can't the president use force and kill him directly.
Of course, people of insight know that Yang Xi is going to recuperate, and the more the past day, the gap between the strength of the other princes and the Chenhe Chamber of Commerce will be bigger.
Zhuge Liang said: "Lord! Yang Xi is not short of food, but he wants food, I am afraid that the drunkard does not mean to drink, he wants something else. Once the lord does not agree, Yang Xi's soldiers and horses will arrive immediately. ”
"How's that for good? Yang Xi now has more than 500,000 soldiers and horses, and even Cao Cao does not dare to easily get into trouble with him. ”
"Don't worry, my lord, he Yang Xi wants to attack my Bashu, what is the difference between him and Cao Cao? Cao Cao couldn't solve the difficulty of Shu Road, and Yang Xi naturally couldn't really fly with wings. Yang Xi is different from Cao Cao, but he has a strong navy, and the lord only needs to station a navy in Zigui County to block Yang Xi's way, even if Yang Xi comes in person, he is also fearless. Since Kong Ming developed gunpowder, he is full of confidence.
Liu Bei nodded and asked, "However, who can guard Zigui?" ”
"It has to be General Guan!" Kong Ming gave the answer.
Liu Beiran Kongming's plan ordered Guan Yu to lead 20,000 troops to Zigui County, choke the main road of the Yangtze River, and hold the Zigui dock.
Of course, these are carried out in secret, and Liu Bei has to stabilize Yang Xi first and let him not act rashly.
Liu Bei replied, saying that Yang Xizhi's request was reasonable, but Shuzhong was now short of grain and grass, and asked if it could be postponed until after the autumn harvest in the second half of the year.
Yang Xi thought, where did Liu Bei want to hand over the grain, and he clearly planned to delay the army.
What Yang Xi wants, but it's not food, it's also Zigui!
Here I want to talk about Zigui, why Yang Xi wants it, and Kong Ming also has to keep it.
Zigui County is located in the throat of Sichuan and Hubei, on both sides of the Xiling Gorge of the Yangtze River, and Qu Yuan's hometown.
"Qu Yuan's virtuous sister, Wen Yuan was exiled, and also returned, because the name is called Sister Gui", "Zi" evolved from "sister".
Its location is important, of course, not because it is Qu Yuan's hometown.
The Yangtze River waterway is a section here, more than 100 kilometers, all of which are lofty mountains and mountains, most of the Yangtze River walks in the Wanzhong Mountains, and only Zigui is a county here for the flat land. Zigui is in the middle of more than 100 kilometers.
Zigui County, there is a basis for advance and retreat, and it can hold the throat of Shu and Jingzhou.
Liu Bei was faster than Yang Xi because he was more nervous than Yang Xi.
Although the entire Liu Bei group had only 100,000 soldiers and horses, and there were 30,000 or 40,000 in Hanzhong at this time, Liu Bei still sent 20,000 soldiers and horses to Zigui.
Yang Xi learned that it was his old friend Guan Yu who was guarding Zi, and immediately had the idea of going to meet for a while in person.
It's summer, the sun is like fire, Yang Xi wants to find a place to escape the heat, and that is Zigui County.
In July, Yang Xi led more than 100 boats and 30,000 military horses to go up the Yangtze River from Jiangxia, like an expedition and a tour.
When he crossed Jiangling, he scared Zhang He a lot, thinking that Yang Xi was going to take Nanjun.
Zhang He led the army to the riverside, and Yang Xi ordered a small boat to send Zhang He a pair of chilled duck pears.
Zhang He was inexplicable, thinking that Yang Xi had other intentions, so he asked if Yang Xi had anything to say.
The envoy only said to Zhang He: "Gongzi said that the weather is hot and humid, General Zhang should pay attention to heat prevention, and there is no other word to bring." ”
The messenger left, but Zhang He saw Yang Xi waving to him at the bow of the boat, did not stop, and went upstream.
"Could it be that he wants to attack Bashu?" A thought flashed through Zhang He's mind.
Yang Xi knows this kind of small details, but for a general like Zhang He, it is not a trivial matter.
Zhang He is definitely surrounded by Cao Cao's henchmen, which is something that any person in a position must do.
This small matter, when it reaches Cao Cao's ears, will become a big thing.
Yang Xichuan went to Xiaoling, came to see him in Lu Meng, and asked if he needed to add some soldiers and horses, Yang Xi said: "This time I went to get Zigui, but it was Guan Yun who guarded the county. I know General Yun Chang as an old acquaintance, and I understand that he is a human being, and I will not need to fight to obtain Zigui County. ”
Lu Meng naturally didn't believe it, but it was not easy to refute it.
Just kidding, you and Guan Yu are old acquaintances, so they obediently handed over the Shuzhong portal to you?
Yang Xi saw Lu Meng's question, so he said: "Ziming, you just have to send a group of people and horses, and follow me to receive Zigui." ”
Lu Meng said: "Gongzi ordered, Lu Meng has already prepared. ”
Lu Meng looked back, and then walked out of a person, and gave a straight military salute to Yang Xi: "Kou Feng, the commander of the 74th Regiment of the Jingnan Theater, listen to the instructions of the son!" ”
"Your name is Kou Feng?" Yang Xi said that he had not heard of this person.
Lu Meng thought that Yang Xixin was just a newcomer, so he explained: "Childe, this Kou is from Changsha, don't look at him as if he has not attended a formal military academy and graduated from a non-professional class." But when Pang Shuai conquered Lingling, he joined the army, and he was a good general. ”
Yang Xi nodded, scanned it, and found that this Kou Feng's body function turned out to be 97, which was a bit exaggerated.
"Shouldn't it? The value of 97 is so young, similar to the peak of Zulang, should he be a famous person? Kou Feng? Changsha people? Yang Xi flashed a string of question marks, and suddenly remembered someone.
"Could it be him?"
Yang Xi remembered Liu Bei's godson Liu Feng, so he hurriedly checked the science and technology tree and called up Liu Feng's information.
"I'll go! It's really Liu Feng! ”
Liu Fengben is the son of Luohou Kou and the nephew of a family surnamed Liu in Changsha County. After Liu Bei took refuge in Liu Biao, he temporarily settled in Jingzhou, because Liu Bei had no heirs at that time, so he accepted Liu Feng as his adopted son.
Knowing that this person was Liu Feng, Yang Xi was silent, and said while nodding: "Yes, I have a good figure, and after dinner, I will have two tricks with you." ”
Kou Feng looked blinded, but Lu Meng said: "Kou Feng, I haven't thanked Gongzi for his advice!" ”
Kou Feng reacted at this time, this is to instruct himself in martial arts, hurry up and salute it.
When the other generals heard this, they were all envious, jealous and hateful.
Among the generals in Jingnan, some are from the Military Academy of Chenhe University, at this time, Yang Xilai, all of them came to see, Yang Xi encouraged them one by one, and after counting, there were more than 20 regiment-level generals, all of whom were from the Military Academy.
Yang Xi had to sigh that he was old, he was already thirty-nine years old, and according to his generation, he was already full of peach and plums.
These students who have reached the regimental level have graduated for a long time, and they have never seen Yang Xi after graduation.
Yang Xi expressed his words of thanks and encouragement to the gentlemen, which moved all these generals.
