Chapter 443: Zhuge went south, and Lu Su crossed the river

Liu Bei remembered that since Zhuge Liang followed him, no matter how difficult it was, even if the 200,000 people had no food and clothing, Zhuge Liang faced it with a smile every day, this kind of depressed look, Liu Bei had never seen it.

"Upset." Zhuge Liang said with the last note, only then did he realize that it was Liu Bei, and hurriedly stood up and saluted, Liu Bei hurriedly pressed down and let Zhuge Liang lie down.

"If Kong Ming has any troubles, say it, in terms of military strategy, Liu Bei is far inferior to the military advisor, I'm afraid he won't be able to help, but the military advisor should not be worried about the military and people's livelihood, if there are any troubles in life, Liu Bei can share it with the military advisor."

Zhuge Liang sighed, shook his head, and squeezed out a smile: "Lord, Kong Ming has nothing to do, it's just a momentary feeling, but there is still a military matter to discuss with the lord."

I heard that Liu Zhang pacified the wilderness, the rear foundation is solid, this time the 70,000 army went deep into the wilderness, Liu Zhang consumed a lot of materials, but the harvest is also huge, not only the rear is stable, the Nanban can provide him with a large number of soldiers, manpower and resources, so that Jingyi's power is greatly enhanced.

For example, if there are seven points today, Cao Cao alone gets three points, the lord and Han Sui get one point, Sun Quan gets one point, and Liu Zhang gets two points, the situation is already clear.

At that time, the Seven Kingdoms of the Warring States Period competed for power, and the military could not completely solve the problem, and diplomacy was needed.

According to Liu Zhang and Huang Yueying's established strategy, Jing Yi should recuperate for several years, but Liu Zhang dared to raise a large army into Xiqiang, and then dared to go deep into the wilderness, it is really difficult to predict that Liu Zhang would not dare to go on a northern expedition before we unified Yongliang.

If so. The situation of our army is critical. It must be stopped. ”

"What does the advisor think?"

Zhuge Liang said: "It's like the Seven Heroes of the Warring States Fighting for hegemony." Zhang Yi, Su Qin, and Sima are in a bad situation, and now we must send people to Shuzhong to stabilize Liu Zhang. ”

"Who to send?" Liu Bei frowned and pondered.

"I'll go." Zhuge Liang said in a deep voice.

"What? The military advisor is going to go in person? Liu Bei exclaimed: "How can that work?" Now that the war is imminent, I need the military advisor to give advice, not to mention that Liu Zhang is violent, Jing Yi is the land of tigers and wolves, and the military advisor is my arm, I am afraid that Liu Zhang will cause harm. ”

Zhuge Liang smiled: "It's okay." Now that we have a big victory over Han Sui, Han Sui was already scattered because of the killing of Ma Teng, and after a defeat, he was even more depressed.

Now our strength is comparable to Han Sui, and our civil, military, brave and strategic strategies far exceed Han Sui, and the people are popular with the people, the Jiang family, the Yang family and other big clans, all of whom support it. The defeat of the lord is almost inevitable, and the lord does not have to be careful.

As for the safety of traveling to Shuzhong. Liang has his own measure, and the lord does not need to worry. ”

"But ......"

Looking at Liu Bei's doubts, Zhuge Liang waved his hand: "If you don't enter the tiger's den, you will get the tiger, and if you go here, you will definitely win time for the lord to pacify Xiliang." ”

Liu Bei finally promised, and Zhuge Liang leaned on the wooden cart: "Yueying, you have suffered so much, I am not by my side, this time, even if Liu Zhang kills me, I will come to see you." ”

…………

When the army returned to Chengdu, Liu Zhang did not enter the pastoral mansion, and entered the hospital as soon as possible, and asked Zhang Zhongjing to diagnose and treat Huang Yueying, but he only prescribed some maintenance medicine and could not recover.

It seems that we can only count on the three cordyceps.

"Summoning the order, convening the civil and military, and discussing the urgent opening of the Silk Road to the Western Regions."

"Yes."

The soldier took the order and left, Fa Zheng's expression twisted, because of the poisoning of the Zhu family, Fa Zheng had been treating, and now he is finally better, but he didn't expect that he was better, Huang Yueying was poisoned again.

"Lord, the Silk Road to the Western Regions is much more difficult to open than the Silk Road to the poisonous Luo Yue, the road to the poison, the Southern Barbarians have now been pacified, and Jiaozhou has also surrendered in name, and there are barbarians and Jiaozhou Shixie to help build the road, saving a lot of manpower, material resources and detection costs.

But on the road to Kunlun, there are countless Qiang and Qiang savages, how do we pass through? Is it going to be another conquest of Qiangdi?

The Qiangdi in Shuxi are not the Southern Barbarians, these Qiangdi are completely uncivilized, the big tribes are not at all, they are all scattered in the poor mountains and bad waters, there are no leaders, no cohesion, no prestige, how can we attack?

This kind of Qiang is not a threat to us at all, but we have to spend huge financial resources, material resources and manpower to attack, and our subordinates feel that it is not worth it at all, and they can't attack it at all, and they can't rule it if they take it. ”

"We can encourage the 13th Xiqiang Department to expand to the southwest and help us open up the road, Zhang Ren only needs to support from the side." Liu Zhang said.

"It's a good way to control Qiang with Qiang, but the lord has not thought about it, the Silk Road leading to poison is always just a dangerous jungle along the way, and the road from Chengdu to Kunlun has to go through the cold plateau.

According to the news from the people who opened the camp in Kangding, to the west of Kangding, there are endless mountains, the terrain is getting higher and higher, the snow is covered all the year round, and it is difficult to breathe. It's because even if there is a road, no one has walked through it, and it is more difficult than crossing the desert.

Unless we set up post stations along the way, spending huge financial and material resources, it will never be possible, the lord, or in the long run, let Zhang Ren slowly explore in the camp of Kangding, and first focus on opening the road to the south, otherwise, the finance can not afford it. ”

To the west of Sichuan is the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, the unclimbable roof of the world.

"Whew~~~"

Liu Zhang let out a sigh of relief, held his head and thought for a long time: "Xiaozhi, what will happen if we start the army now and attack Xiliang?" ”

"Lord, you're not kidding, are you?" Fa Zheng's eyes widened.

"I'm not kidding, if you occupy Xiliang, you can get through the Yumen Pass, you can pass through the Western Regions, and you can reach Kunlun Mountain."

Fa Zheng finally understood the reason why Liu Zhang was so anxious, breathed a sigh of relief, and said to Liu Zhang in a deep voice: "Lord, Fa Zheng understands your feelings, but military affairs are not child's play, this is very clear in the lord's heart.

Now that Xiliang Han Sui and Liu Bei are fighting, it seems that we can bargain, but if we really start the army, Han Sui Liu Bei and the major forces of Xiliang will inevitably unite against the enemy, let me ask Xiliang, is there a warlord who is friendly with us?

We now have no strength to confront the Xiliang army except for a little cavalry in Xiqiang, and the infantry has no role in Xiliang, where the cavalry is crisscrossed, what are we fighting?

Moreover, as soon as the army moved, the grain, grass and manpower had to be mobilized on a large scale, and the lord had been fighting in Xiqiang for more than three months and fighting in the wilderness for half a year.

Fortunately, Jing Yiwen and Wu exhausted their efforts, the merchants enriched the treasury, the people worked diligently to cultivate, and the grain and grass could be paid for. ”

Liu Zhang was silent, sitting on the chair without saying a word, Fa Zheng looked at Liu Zhang for a long time, and said slowly: "Lord, Fa Zheng has never seen the lord so emotional, but he has never seen the lord so attentive.

The mood of the lord, Fa Zheng can understand, in fact, to go to Kunlun Mountain to find the three cordyceps and snow grass, there is no need to open the Silk Road, let alone conquer Xiliang, Fa Zheng has a simple way, we can send people to communicate with the residents of the plateau, and even send people to communicate with the residents of the Kunlun Mountains.

As long as we offer enough rewards for their attractive interests, won't these locals, and many profit-seekers, help us? It's a lot easier than going on our own. ”

Liu Zhang nodded slightly, he just felt that he was not at ease just hiring others, so he still sent a large number of people to collect medicine, so he was at ease, but now, the latter obviously can't do it.

"Okay, let's do it."

Liu Zhang sighed and suddenly asked, "Xiaozhi, I heard that Liu Bei defeated Han Sui in Yongzhou, this is something to worry about." ”

Fa Zheng looked at Liu Zhang with fear: "The lord won't still want to go on the Northern Expedition, right?" ”

Liu Zhang waved his hand: "I'm just asking, you know, I have always been jealous of Liu Bei, but now in less than a year, he has defeated Han Sui and won the entire Yongzhou, if he is allowed to unify Xiliang, it will be a big trouble for our henchmen." ”

At this moment, a soldier came in: "Report to the lord, a letter from the post house, saying that Liu Bei's military division Zhuge Liang will meet you in Chengdu half a month later." ”

"What? Zhuge Liang is coming to Chengdu? Doesn't he want to live? Liu Zhang grabbed the letter and opened it, and sure enough, it was Zhuge Liang, who came to this world, although he had been to Longzhong, which was burned, he had never seen the world's first wise man.

"Lord, aren't you worried about Liu Bei? And we don't have the ability to go on the Northern Expedition yet, so it's better to listen to what Zhuge Liang has to say. ”

At this time, another soldier came to report, "Report to the lord, the post house sent a letter, saying that Lu Su, the governor of Eastern Wu, who was negotiating the war in Hefei in Xuchang, had left Xuchang and would not return to Eastern Wu, and would come directly to Chengdu to meet him half a month later." ”

"Lu Su? What is he here for? Liu Zhang frowned.

Fa Zhengdao: "Lu Su came in such a hurry, is it related to Zhuge Liang?" But what does Zhuge Liang's arrival have to do with Jiangdong? ”

Fa Zheng is also a little confused.

"Respond to all changes with the same, and wait until they come."

More than ten days later, Zhuge Liang Lusu has not come, but the Shanyue people came first, a large number of Shanyue people invaded Guiyang, Jingzhou Thorn Shi Fan Lixiang hurriedly transferred troops to meet the enemy, but Fan Lixiang is okay with politics, military is not good at all, Jingzhou is now in addition to the navy, infantry has few generals.

This Shanyue people's attack is different from the past, it is not to loot and leave, but it seems to be to attack the city, with Fan Lixiang's ability, it is easy to block the Shanyue people, and it may be difficult to drive away, which greatly affects the development of Jingzhou.

"Now Yueying is unwell, filial piety, you go to Jingzhou."

Fa Zhengdao: "Filial piety is happy to obey orders, but after his subordinates left, Zhuge Liang Lusu arrived, and these two people were sharp-tongued......"

Liu Zhang smiled: "Xiaozhi, don't worry, if you want to talk about debate, the ten Liu Zhangs together are not Zhuge Cunfu's opponents, but when it comes to being strong-willed and not being shaken, I am still somewhat sure." (To be continued.) )
