Yang Xi saw the scroll of Chenhe Chronicles, and he didn't know why, Huang Sanlao explained: "The first volume of this "Chenhe Chronicles" is all the big and small events that the old man has encountered you since the first time he met you, and until you helped Cao Cao defeat Yuan Shaozhi. The old man visited the area controlled by the Chenhe Chamber of Commerce almost at that time, and finally got this book. But after all, the old man has little manpower, so he can only do this. ”

Yang Xi thought of an old man who spent several years traveling thousands of miles to do this, and couldn't help but be greatly moved, so he ordered someone to temporarily seal this scroll.

Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang conspired against Shudi, and various plans could not be finalized.

Compared with the force, Hanzhong is far from Shu, and Hanzhong enters Shu, the road is difficult, not unexpected, almost impossible.

Zhuge Liang said: "When I contacted Yizhou before and joined forces to attack Zhang Lu, there was a famous man Fa Zhen's grandson Fazheng, who was the captain of the Yizhou Military Council, and praised the lord. ”

Liu Bei said: "But who can go?" ”

"Previously, Sun Qian sent an envoy to Yizhou and made friends with some Yizhou scholars, and now he can still be punished to enter Yizhou and secretly accept it, but he should be a business envoy." Zhuge Liang thought of a plan.

"Merchant envoy?"

"Today, our Hanzhong distillery, paper factory, glass factory, and match factory are all ready, and there are only some industries with too high technical content that cannot be produced by themselves, but there is no way. For example, in the garment factory, I can grow more cotton, etc., thinking that textile factories, sewing machines, etc. cannot produce their own products, but can buy from the Chenhe factory, and the Chenhe factory never refuses to sell products to anyone, which is exactly what Hanzhong has achieved. After all the products are ready, the lord can send Sun Qian as a business envoy, in the name of product output, stationed in Bashu, slow down development, cultivate strength, win over party henchmen, and make friends with scholars. After Zhuge Liang finished speaking, Liu Bei understood in seconds.

"Kong Ming's method, isn't it Yang Xi's consistent style?"

Kong Ming fanned the feather fan and said: "Yang Chenhe's method, for his Exian, Zhanjiangxia, Dingyuzhang, and Lujiang, can be said to be without a single soldier, which is in line with the words of economic penetration in his textbooks, he Cao Cao can learn it, why can't the lord." Cao Cao took advantage of the Son of Heaven to implement reforms, and now Hanoi County, to Luoyang and Chang'an, are all building railroad tracks, rewarding farming, rewarding population fertility, encouraging commerce, and even following Yang Xi's method of establishing Daxianbei City, he wants to build the railroad tracks to Shuofang County and Wuyuan County, and go out of Saiwai in the north and enter Liangzhou in the west. If it can really be done, wouldn't it be the foundation of the north, and it will become more and more solid. “

"Cao Cao has done so many projects, why does he still have financial resources, but he can't figure it out." Liu Bei didn't know why Cao Cao was so rich.

"Cao Cao had Tuntian to solve the grain and grass before, and after Guandu, he cultivated production and recovered a little. In addition, he set up the position of general of Faqiu Zhonglang, and was in charge of a battalion to touch the gold captain, and there were many thefts of tombs in his jurisdiction, but he was relatively wealthy with money. It is said that when he excavated the tomb of King Liang, he obtained money to raise an army of 100,000 for three years, but the lord did not have this advantage. ”

Cao Cao's tomb robbery was not concealed by himself, and it was naturally common sense that the world knew about it, but the money and materials he obtained were all used to develop the north, and it was also considered to be the money.

Liu Bei was helpless, after all, his foundation was too shallow.

"Alas, now Yang Xi is powerful, Cao Cao is brave and has become a tiger in the dragon pan, even if I have room in Jingzhou and Bashu in the south, I can't compete with it."

Kong Ming said: "The lord doesn't need to worry, once he gets Bashu, he can attack and retreat." In the past, there was an envoy sent by Sun Quan of Jiaozhou, which should have the meaning of unity. Jiaozhou now occupies the land of the Indochina Peninsula, with a barbarian population of hundreds of thousands, and an army of more than 100,000. ”

Liu Bei also heard that he could unite with Sun Quan, and his heart was a little calm, but the top priority was to obtain Jingzhou and Bashu in order to truly gain a foothold.

In October, Liu Bei's cousin Sun Qian led 300 people into Shu to discuss business communication between Hanzhong and Bashu, and Liu Zhang readily agreed, not feeling that there was anything wrong.

After Sun Qian arrived in Bashu, he began to contact various scholars, and at first only for business negotiations, including Fazheng.

Here is an introduction to Fa Zheng, a figure in the official history who is said to be no less capable than Zhuge Liang.

Fa Zheng was born in 176, when Sun Qian arrived in Bashu, he was already Chinese New Year's Eve two, and he had passed the year of establishment. Fa Zhengzi filial piety, Fufeng Yi (Xiaofayi Town, Meixian County, Shaanxi Province), the grandson of the famous Fazhen.

At the beginning of Jian'an, due to the famine in the world, Fa Zheng and his friend Meng Da of the same county entered Shu to attach Liu Zhang, but Liu Zhang was not a good person who used people, and Fa Zheng was appointed as the county commander of Xindu after a long time, and then he was appointed as a military lieutenant.

Fa Zhenghuai did not meet, and was slandered by the people in the state, very distressed, Yizhou Don't drive Zhang Song and Fa Zheng are friends, and also feel that Liu Zhang is not a person who can achieve great things, and often feels his own experience.

These things, Liu Bei naturally did an investigation before entering Shu, and Sun Qian used Fazheng as a breakthrough to break into the high-level of Yizhou.

If Zhang Song can be won over through Fazheng, then Yizhou will be in danger.

Burma, two hundred miles northeast of the Irrawaddy River, a group of ten people walked carefully through the forest.

Heavy rains in the rainforest have been going on for seven days, and it is this kind of heavy rain that nourishes more poisonous insects and beasts in this primeval forest.

The leader of these ten people, about twenty-two or three years old, with a resolute face and clear water chestnut horns, was the leader of a platoon of Huya, named Huang Jie.

Huang Shot is the eldest son of Huang Zu, since Huang Zu was imprisoned, under the suggestion of Huang Zu, Huang Shot entered the Chenhe District of Jiangxia to study, and now he has graduated from the Military Academy of Chenhe University, and was selected by Ji Ling as the platoon leader of Huya.

"Platoon commander, it has rained heavily for seven consecutive days, and the brothers are having difficulty marching, and now all the dry food has been exhausted, the matches have been soaked, and the soldiers' feet are swollen, do you want to find a cave first and recover your physical fitness?" A Huya brother suggested.

"Good! The indigenous branch of this generation is basically clear, and it is time to return. Huang Zhu listened to the suggestion and decided to rest for a day. Huya operation, generally only bring three days of rations, once into the forest, all from the forest to take themselves, but these two days of heavy rain, the beasts also rarely go out, for three consecutive days, only three ducks were hit, the soldiers are already very hungry.

"Brothers! Find an abandoned beast cave first, rest for half a day, and after recovering your physical strength, find a river to see if you can catch fish, replenish some and then move on. ”

So the team moved on.

Huang Zhu was a little puzzled, even if it rained, there was no reason for a range of twenty or thirty kilometers, there were no beasts, it was really strange.

Huang Jian thought of a possibility, that is, in this area, what kind of powerful beasts are there?

"Could it be that there is a king of the forest here? I wish I was thinking too much. "It is said in the Geography that there is a kind of Indochinese tiger in the northern section of the Irrawaddy River.

"If you encounter a tiger, it will be troublesome, the brothers have not many crossbow arrows left, and there are only two at most for each person."

There is no way, sometimes when you catch fish in the river, it will happen that the fish is not shot, and the crossbow arrow cannot be found in the mud.

People often come to what they don't want to do, and when the group is about to leave, suddenly the grass and trees in the mountains and forests are windless, and a murderous aura comes from the front, and everyone's hair stands on end.

When Huang shot his eyes fixedly, a giant tiger with an orange background and a double row of black longitudinal stripes on its back, and two snow-white spotted hairs above its eyes, burst out of the firewood bushes and flew towards him.

The information of the Indochina tiger flashed quickly in the minds of Huang Jie and others.

Measuring 2.5 to 2.8 meters long and weighing more than 150 kilograms, it is the smaller of the tigers, feeding on sambar deer, slope deer, wild boars, and large cattle animals, and occasionally hunting leopards and bears.

Huang Jie cheered up and planned to lead his small team to kill the king of the forest.

There are leopards in this forest, and the Yellow Shooting team killed one ten days ago, and I don't want to run into a tiger at the top of the food chain this time.
