Chapter 137: Zheng Du
Liu Xin frowned, the name Zheng Du seemed to be a little familiar. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Liu Xin returned to the tent and told everyone what had just happened, and everyone sighed at Zheng Du's filial piety.
And Zhang Song said at this time: "I seem to have heard this Zheng Du mention that he is a well-known filial son in their Guanghan County, and he is also very good in terms of talent and learning. ”
When Liu Xin heard this, he finally remembered who Zheng Du was, it turned out that he was the same as Zhang Ren in history, he was Liu Zhang's subordinate, and after Liu Zhang surrendered to Liu Bei, he chose to hide and refuse to serve Liu Bei.
However, there is very little relevant information about Zheng Du, only that he should be a native of Guanghan County, Yizhou, the words are unknown, and the official is engaged in Yizhou, which shows that Zheng Du has real talent and learning, and in this place where literati are born in Yizhou, his ability is also ranked in the forefront.
In the record of Zheng Du in the history books, it is only when Liu Bei captured the city that Liu Zhang gathered the officials in his hands to discuss countermeasures.
At this time, Zheng Du, who was engaged in Yizhou, offered a strategy, thinking that although Liu Bei was now attacking the city and seizing land, the army was flourishing, but in fact, there were not many soldiers under his command, and as for the Yizhou troops that surrendered to Liu Bei, they were not completely attached to Liu Bei, and Liu Bei came to attack Chengdu when he came very urgently, and did not bring much grain and grass, even if he harvested the rice in the field, it would take a long time.
Therefore, Zheng Du suggested that it was better to bring all the people in the Zitong area of Brazil to the west of Fushui, and as for the Cangli Wild Valley, all of them were burned, and then build a deep ditch and high fortress to staking, to avoid fighting, Liu Bei's army had no supply of grain and grass, but in a hundred days, he could only choose to retreat, and then I Luo could take advantage of the false attack, and Liu Bei could also capture it.
Liu Bei felt angry and frightened when he heard the news, because if Zheng Du's plan was really implemented, then he might really lose Yizhou, so Liu Bei hurriedly asked Fa Zheng.
However, Fa Zheng was very clear about Liu Zhang's personality and told Liu Bei that although Zheng Du's strategy was very good, Liu Zhang would never use it.
Sure enough, Liu Zhang vetoed Zheng Du's proposal and dismissed Zheng Du from his official position with "I heard that I rejected the enemy to calm the people, and I did not hear that the people were moved to avoid the enemy".
Liu Xin still admired Zheng Du's strategy of strengthening the wall and clearing the wilderness, and if Liu Zhang took Zheng Du's suggestion, he might be able to repel Liu Bei's attack.
However, although Liu Zhang is weak and incompetent, he has a heart of love for the people, and has almost never launched an external attack, which can be described as an outlier among the princes of the Three Kingdoms period, even if Liu Bei and Uncle Liu Huang, who are known for their "benevolence and righteousness", are also considered to be a warmonger, who has taken the initiative to initiate many wars, and when the army is defeated and retreats, he often coerces the people to leave.
Perhaps, Liu Zhang is more in line with the name of "benevolence and righteousness" than Liu Bei.
However, now Liu Xin is depressed about why he didn't remember Zheng Du's identity just now, this is a first-class strategist in the future!
However, Liu Xin is also comforting himself, after all, Zheng Du is still young, and Yizhou will also be his own territory in the future, and Zheng Du will not be able to escape from the palm of his hand.
Rao is like this, Liu Xin's lunch is less than a bowl of rice than before.
After lunch and half an hour's rest, the convoy set off again, after all, it had to arrive in Zitong before dark, after all, no one wanted to camp in the wilderness.
There was nothing wrong all the way, and the convoy did not encounter any bandits and bandits to rob the road, and successfully arrived at Zitong.
Now that he has returned to Luoyang, and he has already passed Ruo County, Bi Lan did not hide his identity anymore, and directly found Zitong Taishou, Liu Xin and his party were cordially received by Zitong Taishou, and the team was also arranged.
After the dinner, Liu Xin came to the guest room arranged by Zitong Taishou, and Su Jia and others naturally arrived.
Liu Xin still said a little melancholy: "Ah, why didn't I recognize Zheng Du's identity earlier, why did I let him go." ”
Everyone has a black line, and they feel that their lord is now very much like a human trafficker.
Because they still have to leave early in the morning tomorrow, Liu Xin and the others chatted for a while, and then dispersed, except for Su Jia to guard the convoy to prevent anyone from coming to steal.
Liu Xin sat on the bed, now it has been a month since he came to this world, and the journey is also smooth, his scribes and generals, gold and silver treasures are also a lot, and now he lacks a real piece of his own territory, so he can prepare well for the future competition for the world.
However, what Liu Xin is most entangled with now is whether to find a way to save Liu Wei.
For Liu Xin, there are pros and cons to saving Liu Bian, the advantage is that he can coerce the Son of Heaven to order the princes, and as the emperor's uncle, if Liu Xin can save Liu Bian, his prestige in the Han Dynasty can be greatly improved.
On the other hand, there are many disadvantages to saving Liu Bian, after all, Liu Biao is also regarded as the emperor who inherits orthodoxy, so it is a hurdle for Liu Xin to be the emperor, even if Liu Biao chooses Zen to be in himself, it will also attract criticism, if Liu Biao does not know each other, and if he is not in Zen, Liu Xin will face a situation that is even more embarrassing, and Liu Xin does not want to bear the charge of killing the king.
And if Liu Wei died, Liu Xin would be much simpler, Liu Xin was also the orthodox royal family at that time, as long as he had enough prestige and territory, he would be able to directly inherit the unification and justifiably crusade against the rest of the princes.
Therefore, starting from his own interests, Liu Xin still thinks that it is good to let Liu Wei leave the stage early, and he is already a person who wants to be Uncle Liu Huang, how can he do the things of Prime Minister Cao again?
Early the next morning, Bi Lan postponed the departure time this time, but it was also at dawn that he called everyone to prepare to go out.
After politely refusing Zitong Taishou's retention, the convoy set off again, preparing to go all the way north and spend three days to reach Chang'an.
This time, Liu Xin did not stay in the carriage of Liuma, but sat in the driver's seat of Liuma with Su Jia, chatting with each other.
Liu Xin told Su Jia about the problems he was entangled in by the way.
Su Jia was very straightforward, and replied directly to Liu Xin, "As long as Liu Wei is dead, you can be a righteous son of heaven." ”
Liu Xin thought about it carefully, Su Jia was right, as long as Liu Wei died, Liu Xie was just a puppet emperor of Dong Zhuo, then when he was called emperor, it would be justified.
After all, Emperor Han Ling also took over the throne from his imperial uncle.
ps: In the confusion, I have been struggling with Liu Wei's question, is it better to write him to death, or to stay?
As for the plot of Luoyang, it seems to be a bit complicated, and I am sorting out my thoughts and arranging a suitable plot line, and by the way, I have to accept a few people, but there are a few marginal characters in the history of the Three Kingdoms, although their reputation is not obvious, but their abilities are above the second rate.
Finally, ask for a recommendation ticket.
