Liu Jing took Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Jian Yong, Zhang Yan, and commanded the elite soldiers of more than 2,000 people, and marched towards Youzhou. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
This made Liu Jing feel very happy, and felt very comfortable in his heart, people, after a certain extent, money has become a matter outside the body, for Liu Jing, the amount of money seems to be just a number, a vague number, Liu Jing has long been too concerned.
Youzhou, for Liu Jing, although it is familiar, but it is only limited to Zhuo County, Zhuo County is Liu Jing through a series of bloody storms, defeated the Xu family in the south city, the Zhang family in the west city, only then did he gain a firm foothold, only then did he have a firm foothold.
However, when it comes to the entire Youzhou, for Liu Jing, it is an undeveloped virgin land, and for Liu Jing, there are still many potential unfavorable factors in Youzhou.
Because when Liu Yan served as the assassin before, he was deeply involved in Youzhou, and many vassals relied on Liu Yan to survive, and Liu Yan's relationship network in Youzhou was also very deep and very strong, and later, Liu Yan and Liu Jing had friction, and there was a gap between the two people, and the officials and clans of all parties who were vassal of Liu Yan would naturally list Liu Jing as a potential enemy.
Although in the end, Liu Yan chose to leave Youzhou, but those local officials and family members are rooted here, and it is not so easy to let them move, so Liu Jing served as the assassin of Youzhou, and the first thing in front of her was to appease the officials and snakes in these places, and the big families in these places, this job seems simple, but it is a big task that is extremely difficult to do well.
Liu Jing is used to gnawing hard bones, so he naturally won't be afraid of these, but as the saying goes, open guns are easy to dodge and hidden arrows are difficult to defend, and it is not difficult for many people to deal with them.
Therefore, after Liu Jing returned to Youzhou, the first thing he did was not to visit those local wealthy families and families, but to find a very capable assistant for himself first, and this right-hand assistant was none other than Zhuge Kongming.
Youzhou's government and military affairs, compared with other prefectures and counties, are not too complicated, because of the deviation from the central zone, so there is not too much involvement in the central and local wars, but more only with the border Xianbei, Goryeo and Xiongnu friction.
For the sake of a long-term plan, Liu Jing handed over the government affairs to Jian Yong to take care of first, and he focused on finding the traces of Zhuge Kongming and Pang Shiyuan.
Xuzhou is under Tao Qian's rule, and the relationship between Tao Qian and Liu Jing can be regarded as a step closer through the Western Expedition Alliance, all because Tao Qian recognized Liu Jing's ability and wanted to make friends with heroes like Liu Jing, so it was still very convenient for Liu Jing's people to do things in Xuzhou.
Soon, Liu Jing's spies at the 'sticky pole' found out Zhuge Liang's whereabouts, and he had already moved to Nanyang in Jingzhou with his uncle Zhuge Xuan because he was avoiding the riots of thieves in Xuzhou and the war in the north.
At this time, Jingzhou belonged to Liu Biao, who, like Liu Yan, was a member of the Han family and one of the major warlords in the world, who were not interested in the rise and fall of the central government, but were happy to guard their own pure land.
People who have the same ideas and practices as Liu Biao also have Liu Yan, the assassin of Yizhou, that is, after fighting with Liu Jing in Youzhou, in order to avoid the war in the north, he resigned from the history of Youzhou assassination, took his family and confidants, and went south until he arrived in Yizhou to become a local parent official.
Liu Yan's approach is even more absolute than Liu Biao, after he arrived in Yizhou, he killed the Han envoy, blocked the pass, and lived a small life by himself, and since then he has the meaning of cutting off contact with the central government.
And now Liu Xie, it's too late to take care of himself, where is the energy to pay attention to these descendants of the Liu family who are not vassal kings? Therefore, in this new situation, Liu Biao and Liu Yan are even more unscrupulous and more and more independent.
And after Liu Jing heard Zhuge Liang's whereabouts, he was overjoyed, because he knew that Pang Tong was also often active near Yingchuan and Jingzhou, so Liu Jing planned to borrow Jingzhou and his party to strive to take Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong together.
So, after Liu Jing took over Youzhou for more than a month, he said goodbye to Jian Yong, leaving Zhang Yan as Jian Yong's guard, using He Gui and Tang Zhou as Jian Yong's foils, and governing Youzhou for him together, while Liu Jing only took Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, and after bringing some money and grain, they went to Jingzhou together and started his road to seek talent.
From Youzhou to Jingzhou, the road is far away, and there are many places to pass, so Liu Jingcai did not take too many people to travel together, one came to act in a low-key manner, and came in order not to attract people's eyes, he didn't want to be said, he had just been rewarded by the emperor, so he left his job without permission and went to other places to have a good time.
Because Liu Jing was eager to seek money, he, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were light and simple, and they had been marching along the road towards Jingzhou.
About half a month later, the Jingzhou boundary finally arrived, Liu Jing stepped on this relatively peaceful pure land, his heart was extremely excited, and he was about to meet Zhuge Liang, this is an epoch-making meeting, and this is also a meeting that can change Liu Jing's life.
Liu Biao of Jingzhou was a man of many hearts and a very cautious person, and his subordinates Kuai Liang, Kuai Yue, and his wife and brother Cai Mao were all extraordinary people.
Under the governance of Liu Biao, Jingzhou's development was quite good, and because he did not participate in the battle of Zhuolu in the Central Plains against Dong Thief, his power was also greatly retained.
The current Han Dynasty, in terms of power, is still Liu Yan of Yizhou and Liu Biao of Jingzhou is the most powerful, so they can be regarded as retaining the fire for the Han royal family, although morally speaking, they are a little self-conscious and ignore the overall situation, but for the royal family of the Han Dynasty, they also have a little credit.
After Liu Jing came to Jingzhou, he was amazed by the folk customs and folk customs here, this is really a peaceful place, the life of the common people is much stronger than that of the Central Plains, and the environment for businessmen to do business is also stronger than that of the Central Plains.
Liu Jing had a feeling and decided that after he went back, he would ask He Gui to open Hengshe to Jingzhou, because this southern water town is not the barren land before, because it is far away from war and strife, whether it is the economy or people's livelihood, it has been raised to a higher level.
Nanyang City is not big, but it is small and exquisite, although the population here is not too much, but there is no lack of prosperity, no wonder Zhuge Liang chose to live in seclusion here.
Liu Jing took Guan Yu and Zhang Fei to an inn called 'Youlai', stayed temporarily, and then prepared to fast for three days before going to Wollongong to meet Zhuge Liang. (To be continued.) )
