Chapter 971: Zhang Xiu refuses to surrender
Since getting Jingzhou, Liu Bei has been full of confidence in Zhuge Liang, and he felt that the previous tribulations were all for the two of them to meet, and said happily: "What is the good strategy of the military advisor?" ”
Zhuge Liang shook the feather fan lightly and said: "The soldiers in Jingzhou are strong and poorly trained, because Liu Biao is incompetent. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoI have twenty-four articles on the art of war here, and I am strictly trained to not lose to the soldiers of the Northland. ”
"The lord can reuse Cai Mao and Zhang Yun to promote the people of each family and collect the hearts of the Jingzhou scholars. Let the second general and the third general be responsible for training the troops, so that they can collect the hearts of the soldiers, and crusade against the thieves and the hearts of the people. ”
"When the crusade is over and the soldiers are trained, we will raise troops into Jingnan, but those who are not satisfied can be destroyed."
Liu Bei thought about it carefully, what Zhuge Liang said was very methodical, and it was interlocking step by step. But Liu Bei was still worried: "I'm afraid that Qin Zi will enter the army to suppress the realm, and our side won't have much time." ”
Zhuge Liang feather fan nodded: "It's okay, Qin Feng has newly acquired the Central Plains, and it seems to be powerful, but the Central Plains are all newly acquired lands, and he needs to be resettled one by one, especially the Central Plains Shi clan, he is not easy to get inside, how can he get outside?" Moreover, he wants to continue his southward march, and he needs a lot of money and food, which can not be raised in a short time. I expect that Qin Zijin will not move his troops south before the summer harvest next year. This time is enough for the lord to tidy up the place. ”
Liu Bei was still worried: "How powerful NATO was at the beginning, it was also destroyed by Qin Feng, although I have Jingzhou, there is no danger to defend, I am afraid that I am not Qin Feng's opponent." ”
How could Zhuge Liang not know that Qin Feng was so powerful that he accounted for half of the country. He had already made up his mind and said, "You can join Wu Shu to fight against Qin." ”
Liu Bei was shocked in his heart and said: "Military Master, Shuzhong may be successful, but Jiangdong Sun Ce is Qin Feng's eldest apprentice, and he respects Qin Feng as his father, how can he join forces with me to deal with his master." ”
Zhuge Liang said inscrutablely: "Don't worry, my lord, I have my own way." After settling down for a while, I went to Jiangdong to lobby. ”
Liu Bei was shocked, but still according to Zhuge Liang's instructions, he convened a meeting of Jingzhou civil and military affairs.
At that time, the meeting was held, and all the officials of Jingzhou arrived.
The text includes Zhuge Liang, Kuai Yue, Yi Ji, Sun Qian, Jian Yong, Xiang Lang, Wang Cang, Pan Rui, and Han Song.
Wu Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Cai Mao, Zhang Yun, Wen Ping, Li Yan, Su Fei, Huo Jun, Wang Wei, Cai Zhong, Cai He and others.
No one from the four counties of Jingnan came.
If you want to say Liu Bei's subordinates, there are also people available. There are 200,000 Jingzhou soldiers in hand, and the strength is also there.
As a result, Zhuge Liang formulated a strategic plan for Liu Bei to win over the Jingzhou scholars, train Jingzhou soldiers and horses, crusade against thieves and robbers, and further collect Jingnan's disobedience to the local area.
Liu Bei ordered everyone to do their duty, and began to implement it.
At this point, Liu Bei began to run Jingzhou, recruiting troops and horses, training soldiers, and gaining momentum. He also sent Yi to Shuzhong to form an alliance with Liu Zhang. As a result, the Han clan relatives formed a large force in the south.
After everything was arranged, this afternoon, Liu Bei was very comfortable fishing in the pond in the back garden.
"Report to the ......, lord, there is a messenger from Wancheng Zhang Xiu to see you!"
Liu Bei's big ears fanned.
On the other hand.
Xuchang.
Qin Feng's rectification of the Central Plains is also in progress.
in the chamber.
The five-member military division reported on their work.
Xu Shu said: "The land reform working group composed of Cui Yuanping, Shi Guangyuan, Meng Gongwei and others is going very smoothly. Treaties were signed by the nobles in all places, and they all sold their land to the imperial court at the normal price. ”
The most fundamental reason why the scholars were able to become the powerful people who controlled the rise and fall of dynasties was that they controlled a large amount of land. Tens of thousands of people are in the hands of tens of thousands of people on the land. Each family soldier ranges from hundreds to tens of thousands, and the power is strong.
By the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the imperial court was weak and powerful and merged, and the land and population under its control were more locally than those of the imperial court. Although there is no nominal king, they are all the same as the emperors of the soil.
Now that Qin Feng has risen strongly, he naturally will not give his power to the greedy scholars. He will never allow the corrupt scholars to sabotage his great cause of reviving China. Only when the people are rich can the country become truly strong. The Shi clan wants to exploit the people, and they don't allow the people to get rich, so Qin Feng wants to engage these Shi clans.
The Ranshi clan is also a part of Huaxia, and beating them to death with a stick is also hurting the vitality of Huaxia. Therefore, on the one hand, Qin Feng received the land of the scholars through formal channels, and on the other hand, he gave preferential policies to the scholars, allowing them to use the ability of "high-achieving students" on the right path to develop culture and economic construction.
In this way, the people will be rich when they have land. As long as the scholars devote themselves to the development of culture and economy, they will not decline.
Land reform, auxiliary industry and commerce, the military advisors admired Qin Feng's policies. For thousands of years, only Qin Feng's policy was the best way to reconcile internal class contradictions, and it was not full of blood. Everyone saw the strong future of China and was overjoyed.
Qin Feng's power shocked the Shi clan and made the Shi clan dare not mess around, although they were unwilling, they could only hand over the land and follow the road that Qin Feng gave them. And Qin Feng's prestige among the people allowed the Central Plains to recover quickly from the chaos.
Therefore, Qin Feng pacified the Central Plains and resumed production and construction very quickly.
At this moment, Qin Feng had already decided to march south, and the Central Plains would recover quickly, which allowed him to speed up the progress of the southern expedition.
But Qin Feng still decided to wait until the summer harvest of the following year before starting the southern expedition.
"Report ......."
At this time, a message came from the intelligence guard, "Lord Qi, Jingzhou has changed hands...... Liu Bei brought the new military advisors Zhuge Liang, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and others to the Jingzhou ....... ”
Qin Feng looked at Pang Tong.
Pang Tong hurriedly went out of work and said, "Lord, when his subordinates went to Longzhong, Cui Yuanping and others had an argument with Zhuge Liang. It is so, so, so, and so ......, Zhuge Liang has a plan, Wu Shujing unites, and resists the north in the south, which can block the lord from going south. I thought it was a battle of will, but I didn't expect it to be ....... ”
Lao Jia Xu touched his beard and said: "I heard that Zhuge Kongming compares himself to Guan Zhong Le Yi, Guan Zhong to help the weak Qi country, and Le Yi to attack the strong coalition army, this metaphor is quite meaningful. Look at this self-comparison, and you can see that this person is extremely conceited. It is not surprising that he abandoned the call of the lord and went to vote for Liu Bei. ”
The military advisors looked at each other, and they all knew Zhuge Liang's thoughts, first surpassing Guan Zhong, and then surpassing Leyi, how conceited he was.
Frustrated, he said: "My lord is a virtuous person, the destiny of heaven returns, and the people look up to virtue." Looking at Zhuge Liang's choice, even if he is a genius in the sky, he will fall into the inferior. ”
Qin Feng Rongma has seen many things in his life, and after a little pity, he didn't care, and said: "Although Jingzhou has changed, it is still in order, and it will be the beginning of spring in another month, and then mobilize soldiers and horses to prepare for the southern expedition." ”
"Whoa." The people answered.
"Report ......."
At this time, a scout officer in the army came to report, "Report to the lord that Wancheng Zhang Xiu refused to submit to the envoy in order to expel our envoy." ”
Qin Feng pacified the Central Plains, so he had the heart to go south, view Jingzhou place, and Zhang Xiu in the north occupied Wancheng, not under the command of Jingzhou. He planned to get Wancheng, thinking that it was an outpost in Jingzhou. He had already sent an envoy to persuade him to surrender, but he didn't expect Zhang Xiu to refuse to surrender.
"It seems that it will be another year." Qin Feng sighed in his heart, he originally planned to go back to Yedu for the New Year, but now it seems that he can't go back.
In fact, Qin Feng could send one general or even several generals to conquer Zhang Xiu, but after learning about Zhuge Liang, Wu, Shujing, and Jing's joint strategy, he couldn't move lightly. Although Zhang Xiu only has a land of puppets and no more than 20,000 soldiers, it is very likely that Liu Bei in Jingzhou, and even Shuzhong and Jiangdong.
Therefore, Qin Feng, like Cao Cao in later generations, made the decision to personally recruit Zhang Xiu.
Although it was the middle of winter, the Qin army had sufficient logistics, so three days later, Qin Feng ordered 100,000 troops and went straight to Wancheng.
