Chapter 1271: Contempt Comes to Envoy

The Han army won Yizhou, and Zhang Lu, who occupied Hanzhong, was restless and sleepless all day.

On the border between Yizhou and Hanzhong, there will be Hanzhong Tanma coming and going every day.

The soldiers and horses of Hanzhong did not dare to rashly attack Yizhou, and the Han army that occupied Yizhou had no intention of attacking Hanzhong.

However, on the border between the two places, there are many officials appointed by the Han army.

Immediately after these officials were stationed, they began to measure the land in Yizhou and redistribute it to the people.

The Han army re-measured and distributed the land, and every day there would be soldiers in Yizhou loudly proclaimed, the Han Dynasty did not collect tribute for three years, and the people were allocated the land, and they could live and work in peace and contentment, without having to bear the pain of conscription and taxes.

At first, the scouts of Hanzhong County still scoffed at what the Han army shouted, and they didn't pay attention to it at all.

But after a few days, they found that the situation was far more serious than they thought.

In Hanzhong, many people heard that Yizhou was distributing land, and there was no forced labor or tax for three years, and many people rushed to Yizhou with their families.

The Han army stationed in Yizhou adopted the strategy of settling down for the people who came from Hanzhong.

All the Hanzhong people who entered Yizhou would be assigned to fertile land, and even their residences were built with the help of Han soldiers.

In the past, I couldn't eat enough food in Hanzhong, but when I arrived in Yizhou, not only could I eat enough, but even the housing and clothing were taken care of by the Han army.

The news soon spread, and at first it was only the people of Hanzhong who got the news on the border between the two places, and later, even the hinterland of Hanzhong also spread.

Countless people flocked to Yizhou for their livelihoods.

Seeing the loss of population, Yan Zòng, he could get a return for exploring horses every day, saying that a large number of people had poured into Yizhou again, and the Han army in Yizhou did not refuse to come, and took them all in, Zhang Lu was anxious for a while.

Originally, he was not appointed by the Han court, and the reason why he was able to occupy Hanzhong was completely because he deceived the people with false reasoning and heresy, so that the people of Hanzhong followed him to fight against Liu Zhang.

In the past, Liu Zhang was in Yizhou, although he also adopted a Huairou strategy, but the people's lives were still relatively poor, many people cultivated the fields, and at the end of the year, in addition to taxes and rent, there were no catties of rations left.

Therefore, the people of Hanzhong did not yearn for Yizhou in the past.

But now it is different, the Han army occupies Yizhou, and allocates land for the people, because the green seedlings are still in the field, and they will not be able to harvest for a while and a half, Zhuge Jun ordered to open the warehouse, take out the grain in the granary, and distribute it to the people as rations, and then return it to the treasury after the harvest.

In this way, as long as you enter Yizhou, you don't have to worry about going hungry, and the migration from Hanzhong to Yizhou has become a trend in a few days.

"Someone!" After getting the news that a group of people had entered Yizhou again, Zhang Lu finally couldn't sit still, he slapped the low table in front of him and shouted outside the house.

A soldier standing guard outside the house stepped inside, clenching his fists and waiting for orders.

"Pass the order, if any more people dare to go to Yizhou, there will be no mercy!" Looking at the soldiers standing inside the door with their fists clenched, Zhang Lu gritted his teeth and gave an order that he thought could effectively curb the migration of the people.

With a fist clenching in response, the soldier turned and retreated.

Zhang Lu's order soon reached the army.

In the Hanzhong army, most of the soldiers were locals.

After receiving the order, many soldiers were very puzzled.

In Hanzhong, there have been years of poor income, and taxes and forced labor are heavy, and many families in the people have lived a life of hunger all year round.

Now that the life of Yizhou is better, it is understandable for the family to move to Yizhou.

What's more, almost all of the officers and soldiers of the Hanzhong Army have relatives who have moved to Yizhou, and there are more relatives who are preparing to move.

As soon as Zhang Lu's order was given, the Hanzhong army suddenly boiled.

On the day they received the order, many soldiers openly disobeyed the order, took away the swords and armor, left the barracks, and went to Yizhou.

The changes in the barracks made Zhang Lu even more upset.

After thinking about it again and again, if this goes on for a long time, he is afraid that his Hanzhong will not need to be attacked by the Han army, and he will already be empty, and there are few people who are willing to stay here.

The purpose of using brutality as a means to prevent the migration of the people did not come to fruition due to the resistance of the soldiers.

Zhang Lu thought about it in every possible way, and finally made a decision to send an envoy to Yizhou to negotiate with the Han army.

As long as the Han army was willing to refuse the entry of the people of Hanzhong, he was willing to serve the Han court and sit in Hanzhong for Liu Wei.

The messenger sent by Zhang Lu was his third brother Zhang Zheng.

This is ashamed, he has read a few poetry books on weekdays, and he is not like his brother, who only knows how to pretend to be a ghost and fool the people all day long.

After getting Zhang Lu's instructions, knowing that the population loss in Hanzhong was strict, and he couldn't delay for half a moment, Zhang Zheng immediately made the trip and rushed all the way to Yizhou.

In Yizhou, Zhuge Jun got Yan Feiyan's strategy, did not use troops against Hanzhong, but adopted a policy of leniency and benevolence on the border to attract the people of Hanzhong, so that the border of Yizhou, in just a few days, formed a number of small towns.

Although many officials were dispatched on the border between the two places, Zhuge Jun was still a little uneasy, and decided to sit in the town himself and coordinate the distribution of land and the allocation of grain and grass.

Under Zhuge Jun's control, the progress of land distribution in Yizhou is faster than before, and the number of Hanzhong people pouring into Yizhou is also increasing.

Sitting in the tent, Zhuge Jun was looking at the accounts placed on the table, and a personal soldier's voice came from outside the tent: "General Qiqi, Zhang Lu sent a messenger to come, intending to contact the general!" ”

Hearing that Zhang Lu had sent an envoy to come, Zhuge Jun smiled slightly and said to the outside of the tent: "Call him in!" ”

The reason why the word "call" is used instead of please is very particular.

The word "call" is a word commonly used by people with relatively noble status to summon people with low status, while "please" is mutual respect, or the party being asked to see respects the party who asks to see them.

Zhuge is like this, the meaning is very obvious.

In his heart, Zhang Lu has always been just a thief who uses evil words to confuse the public and occupy a territory.

How can the messenger of the thief afford the word "please"?

When he came to the Han army barracks, he only saw the strict discipline of the Han army and the purge of the team, and Zhang was ashamed to conclude that once the two armies fought, the Han Zhong army would definitely not be the opponent of the Han army!

Hearing that Zhuge Jun called him into the account, Zhang Zheng didn't dare to delay for a moment, and under the guidance of the soldiers, he went to Zhuge Jun's handsome tent.

Standing at the curtain of the tent, Zhang Zheng hugged his fists and bowed, and said to Zhuge Jun in the tent: "The subordinate Zhang is ashamed, on the order of the Heavenly Master, I have come to visit the general!" ”

"Heavenly Master? What is a celestial master? Zhuge in the tent did not let Zhang Cheng enter the account, but asked lazily.

In the Hanzhong area, Zhang Lu is called the Heavenly Master, and even the people in Yizhou know it.

Zhuge Jun asked who was the Heavenly Master, and needless to say, Zhang Zheng also knew that he was going to give his own family a dismissal.

I wanted to walk away, but after thinking about it, now that the Han army is implementing a new policy in Yizhou, many people in Hanzhong are flocking to Yizhou, and the army refuses to enter and suppress it.

There is a request for others, Zhang Zheng had to force his temperament, maintained the posture of clenching his fists and bowing, and said to Zhuge Jun in the tent: "Back to the general's words, the Heavenly Master is the five buckets of rice Zhang Tianshi!" ”

"You're talking about Zhang Lu, right?" Zhuge Jun's voice came from the tent again: "You go in and talk, so through the tent curtain, General Ben is tired!" ”

Zhuge Jun asked him to enter the tent, Zhang thanked him, lifted the curtain and walked in.

As soon as he entered the tent, he was startled by a face that appeared in front of him.

What suddenly appeared in front of him was a fierce and ugly face, which almost touched this person, and Zhang exclaimed in shame: "Mom! ”

"Haha!" As soon as his exclamation came out, Dian Wei, who was standing at the curtain to stop him, laughed, and said to Zhuge Jun: "General, that Zhang Lu is also interesting, send a messenger, what kind of person can't be, just send such a person who has just entered the tent, and he didn't even see it clearly, so he called his mother loudly!" ”

was said by Dian Wei's words with a red face, Zhang Shame glared at him angrily, it can be seen that he is vicious, but he didn't dare to be angry, so he had to force his temperament, hugged his fists and bowed to Zhuge Jun and said: "In the next Zhang Shame, meet General Zhuge ." ”

"No excuses!" His eyes always stayed on the accounts in front of him, Zhuge Jun didn't even look at Zhang Zheng, he raised his hand at him and asked, "Zhang Lu asked you to come here, why did you come here?" ”

Dian Wei suddenly burst out in fright, and Zhuge Jun was lukewarm to him again, which made Zhang feel uncomfortable in his heart.

However, he didn't dare to attack, just hugged his fists and bowed down and said: "Recently, the general has taken in the people of Hanzhong on a large scale, and the Heavenly Master has heard about it, and Xingzhong is very displeased......

"Does he like it or not, what's the matter?" Without waiting for Zhang Zheng to finish speaking, Zhuge Jun said nonchalantly: "If Mr. is on this trip, he just wants to inform the general, then Zhang Lu doesn't like it in his heart, the general already knows, sir, please go back!" ”

Zhuge didn't take Zhang Lu seriously at all, Zhang was stunned, and his face was even more ugly than after being frightened by Dian Wei just now.

His face was blue and red for a while, Zhang Zheng held back his anger and did not leave, but said to Zhuge Jun: "The Heavenly Master has the heart to get acquainted with the general, and he doesn't want to turn against the general, so he sent him forward." There was contempt for the Heavenly Master in the general's words......"

"Sue Zhang Lu, General Ben not only despises him, but in a few days, when the land, grain and grass are properly distributed, the army will drive straight in and recapture Hanzhong!" Looking up at Zhang Zheng, Zhuge Jun moved his gaze back to the accounts and said to him: "Zhang Lu bewitched the people, deceived the people with five buckets of rice, and entrenched in Hanzhong all the year round. When my Han Heavenly Soldiers came here, they didn't think about disbanding the soldiers and horses and surrendering to the Heavenly Soldiers, but what kind of messenger did they send! Is it really true that Hanzhong is a country within a country? ”

was stunned by Zhuge Jun's question, Zhang Zheng's face was red and white, a fire broke out in his chest, his hands clenched his fists, and said to him: "Since the general said so, I can't say it, we can only meet each other on the battlefield!" Leave! ”
