Chapter 289: Tiger Prison

Liu Bei became a pioneer, and he was also the first pioneer, so he naturally had to set off in advance, before leaving, he went to see Lu Bu, Lu Bu was the second pioneer, they were partners in cooperation, and they had to ventilate in advance. [Full text reading]

Outside Lu Bu's tent, Liu Bei asked the soldiers to go in to report, he waited outside the tent, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei stood behind him, the three of them thought that Lu Bu could personally greet him, anyway, now Liu Bei is the Marquis of Yuancheng, and he has three thousand iron horses, whether it is a title or military strength, they all surpass Lu Bu, Lu Bu is a thief-born goods, how can he not come out to greet him

Who knows, as soon as the little soldier entered, Lu Bu's voice sounded in a moment, and the voice was very loud, and he heard Lu Bu say: "That guy who sells grass shoes wants to see me?" The tone was quite surprised.

Liu Bei and Guan Zhang outside the tent heard it clearly, and the three of them were furious at the same time, this Lu Bu was so rude, he even called Liu Bei a straw shoe seller, isn't this just scolding Liu Bei for being a straw shoe seller

Zhang Fei said angrily: "What kind of thing is he, Lu Bu, he dares to insult my eldest brother, how can he treat me to go in and beat him" He wanted to go into the account to beat Lu Bu, but was stopped by Liu Bei.

Liu Bei waved his hand at him, signaling Zhang Fei not to go in, Guan Yu also said: "Big brother, if you endure the surname Lu today, I don't know how many people will learn from him in the future, if they all come to bully us one by one, who can bear it?" ”

They were talking outside the tent, and the voice was not small, and Lu Bu inside the tent naturally heard it. Lu Bu just said that he was selling grass shoes, because he suddenly heard Liu Bei come to see him, he was very surprised, he was very jealous of Liu Bei's addition to the official Jinjue, and the two had nothing to do with each other, Liu Bei suddenly came to see him, it was normal for him to be surprised, so he blurted out a sentence of selling grass shoes, he didn't really want to offend Liu Bei, and he couldn't offend such an upstart, he was not stupid, he had nothing to offend people, and it was not a fun thing, but as soon as the two of Guan Zhang outside spoke, Lu Bu knew that he had offended people

Lu Bu chuckled in his heart, and thought: "It's bad, I didn't keep my mouth shut for a while, doesn't this offend Liu Bei, he is a celebrity in front of the Queen Mother, in the future, in front of the Queen Mother and the Prince, say bad things about me, give me small shoes to wear, he specializes in selling straw shoes, and his ability to weave small shoes must be great, then I can't stand it."

Whether you want to do it behind your back, that's what you are behind the scenes, but you can't do it in person, you should apologize, and you have to apologize. At this time, Lu Bu is not the same as in real history, he is not afraid of anyone in real history, but now he is not very angry by Li Qin, can setbacks make people grow up, Lu Bu is very mature now, and he will not play any famous temper

He immediately jumped up, strode out of the tent, saw Liu Bei outside, and shouted, "Hey, isn't this Brother Xuande, why are you here?" He pretended to look around and muttered, "Who's that, why is it gone?"

This pretentiousness, to put it bluntly, is not admitting that he was scolding Liu Bei just now, but talking about someone who is now gone, which is equivalent to telling Liu Bei, I don't want to offend you, you should not be like this, if you have to find fault with me, I am not necessarily afraid of you

Liu Bei sighed softly, Lu Bu didn't want to offend him, he didn't want to offend Lu Bu, he was about to go to war, offended his comrades, it was a fatal thing, and no one could afford serious consequences

Liu Bei waved his hand at Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, signaling that this should be done in advance, and not to clash in person, he turned his head to Lu Bu and said, "General Lu, you have come recklessly. It's nothing else, just ask, you and I are both in the vanguard, I don't know how far apart we have to be to echo each other? ”

Lu Bu thought to himself: "He is afraid, he has no confidence to defeat Li Qin's vanguard, if he has the confidence to win every battle, then why do you still ask me how far away from him is?" Ask the distance, isn't it just that I'm worried that if he loses, will I support him in time Hmph, you're right that you don't have confidence, if you can defeat Li Qin's vanguard, I don't want my head, just cut it off for you"

Lu Bu smiled all over his face and said, "Why don't we go into the tent and talk about it......" Glancing at Guan and Zhang who were staring at him wide-eyed, he laughed dryly and said, "It's okay to say it outside, General Liu, how far apart do you think we are?" You say, I will listen to you" Brother Xuande stopped calling and called General Liu.

Liu Bei said: "It's better to be seventy miles apart, two days away, what do you think?" ”

During the period of cold weapon warfare, the infantry marched, no more than thirty miles per rì, in order to ensure that the soldiers' body was not consumed too much, and it was also suitable for the time spent pulling out the camp in the morning, setting up camp at night, getting up at dawn, and the time spent on burying the pot to cook at noon, and not waiting until it was dark to stop, start camping, and make dinner, and do these things, and not let the soldiers be too tired, so as not to be unable to respond to the battle in case of war, so for the infantry, in the absence of special circumstances, thirty miles is about the same

When Lu Bu heard this, he said, "Looking at Yibu, seventy miles seems to be closer. General Liu's soldiers are all cavalry, and they travel more than 30 miles a day, for fear that the commander General Yuan will be annoyed, and the princes from all walks of life are in a hurry to recover Luoyang, they are afraid that they will not agree to such a slow marching speed, so it is better for you to march every 100 miles, let's travel every two days, 200 miles, what do you think? ”

Liu Bei's face changed greatly, and Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were all angry, the army went out, the vanguard and the headquarters were separated by two hundred miles, and they couldn't be considered close, and the first and second pioneers were even separated by a hundred miles, was this a joke? Or is it deliberately framed? It's hard to beat Li Qin, just go to our pioneers, and you are all watching the excitement in the back

Seeing that the faces of the three of them changed in unison, and there was a precursor to turning their faces, Lu Bu sneered in his heart, but his face was full of discussion, and he said: "If General Liu thinks that two hundred miles is too far, and you can't get my help after being defeated by Li Qin, then one hundred miles will be done, just one hundred miles, so it's decided."

Zhang Fei said angrily: "The thief surnamed Lu, don't think that we don't know what kind of background you are, and you dare to underestimate us if you are a thief."

Guan Yu also said angrily: "You can stay as far away as you like, and when we destroy Li Qin, we will settle accounts with you."

The two said in unison: "Big brother, this kind of person, why bother with him, let's go"

Liu Bei naturally didn't feel much joy in his heart, but he came to find Lu Bu because he wanted Lu Bu to give him some grain and grass, such a fuss, I am afraid that there will be no grain and grass to divide, and other princes will not look down on him, naturally there will be less grain and grass, if he doesn't want to think of a way to find someone to get together, no matter how fast the march is, it won't be a few days faster

When Lu Bu looked at Liu Bei's appearance, he knew that he had begged himself, and hurriedly said: "In this way, Nabu will not be sent, I wish General Liu a victory and success" As he spoke, he arched his hand, and then turned around and went back to the tent

Liu Bei stomped his feet, took his two brothers, left Lu Bu's military camp, returned to his own, and the next day he raised his troops and rushed in the direction of Julu

During this time, Li Qin was not idle, and dealt with the affairs of the Yellow Turban Army non-stop, and finally handled the affairs of Julu almost completely. He knew that the coalition army led by Yuan Shao and Cao Cāo would definitely pass through the giant deer to attack, and the limelight would be prosperous at the beginning, so he did not repair the giant deer, lest it be taken away by the coalition army after it was repaired, and he was like the enemy

Li Qin ordered the city wall of Julu City to be demolished, so that it could not be used to defend in a short time, and then the army retreated, in order to make the coalition army come, it fell into the vast sea of war among the people, he ordered to measure the land, and issued a land deed to the people, the wasted land is innumerable, enough for the people to share, he also distributed rations to the people, and told them that because of the huge damage caused by the war, the newly allocated land to them can be exempted from taxation for three years, the fourth and fifth years to pay one-twentieth, and the sixth year to pay one-tenth, This tax policy will remain unchanged for 50 years. At the end of the Han Dynasty, this was a very low tax rate, and it was impossible to do it anywhere else

Li Qin knows very well that if he wins and wins the world, then in order to allow the people to recuperate, he must be exempt from tax and reduce taxes, which is inevitable, and if he loses, then whether he is exempt from tax or not, whether he reduces taxes or not, has nothing to do with him. Anyway, if he loses, if Yuan Shao or Cao Cāo wants to restore taxes, it will have to provoke the people to revolt, and the people will remember him well, and maybe he can fight back to the east again with the support of the people

During this period, Li Qin also took the time to go back to Luoyang to stabilize the situation in Beijing. But after he went back this time, he found that nothing else, that is, Zhang Rang and other eunuchs cultivated their forces too quickly, and recruited tens of thousands of "militiamen" Although they were not fully equipped or anything, the number of them was really quite a lot, and it seemed that the ten permanent servants intended to get rid of the control of the Fujiao Army

This situation is very serious, but Li Qin has no time to deal with it, if he repairs Zhang Rang and others at this time, then Luoyang will be in chaos, and he wants to go to war with the coalition army, he really can't take care of both ends, so Li Qin can only endure it, as long as he defeats the coalition army, after returning to the division, it will not be so difficult to sweep away Zhang Rang and others, and now he can only let Zhang Rang and others toss first

Li Qin returned from Luoyang and told Jia Xu about Zhang Rang, Jia Xu didn't feel any surprise, but judging from the current situation, he didn't have any good ideas, so he could only wait and see what happened, after all, now that the coalition forces were pressing, he didn't dare to change if he wanted to.

After arranging the affairs of the Yellow Turbans, Li Qin decided to go to war, but in the early days of the war, he did not plan to take the initiative to attack, in case he took the initiative to attack and the war went well, those princes who formed the coalition army were disbanded and ran away as in real history, then the world should not be in chaos, those princes have territory, stick to the territory and resist him, and the war does not know when it will go.

Li Qin ordered the army to transfer its position, from Julu to Tiger Pass, he planned to stick to the Tiger Pass first, first to defeat the spirit of the coalition army, and when the coalition army was exhausted and the civil strife was chaotic, he would counterattack on a large scale, so as to achieve the result of total annihilation of the coalition army
