Chapter 424: The Mysterious Scribe
Kawabi wiped his tears. Lift Liao Hua up and say! "At that time, the repentance was abyssed, and the death of Xianhe really had nothing to do with Yuan Jian, and he rose up."
Liao Hua shook his head, but he refused to get up. Guan Yu knew that Liao Hua was stubborn, so he grabbed him. shouted: "What's the use of you like this, Xianhe has died in battle, what you have to do now is not to admit your mistakes, but to practice martial arts and avenge Xianhe!" ”
When Liao Hua heard this, his eyes lit up, and he was pulled up by Guan Yu and said, "Not bad!" The murderer of Mr. Xianhe is Xiahou Yuan, and he wants to personally cut off his head to avenge Mr. Xianhe! ”
When Zhang Fei heard this, he immediately stepped forward to take a closer look at the sharp arrow that hit Jian Yong's door, and saw that there were two small words "Miaocai" written on it, and everyone knew that what Liao Hua said was true.
Liu Bei glanced around at everyone, and now there are only Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Chen Dao, Liao Hua, Guan Ping and Sun Gan, and the rest don't know whether they were killed in battle or captured, and the family was also lost. Seeing that there were only a few lonely people left, Liu Bei's true intentions surged, and he knelt on the ground with a "poof", and blamed himself: "Be incompetent, and even the princes have been involved so far, and you should die to thank the princes." After speaking, he picked up the male sword in the double-strand sword and wanted to create his own.
"Poof
Seeing this, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei hurriedly grabbed it with one hand, and the double-strand sword was sharp, and Guan Yu and Zhang Fei's hands were opened at once. Guan Yu and Zhang Feiqiang endured the severe pain in their hands, and grabbed the double-strand gangster and did not let go.
Guan Yu said loudly: "Big brother, don't commit suicide, in order to help the eldest brother achieve great things and revive the Han family, you don't hesitate to sacrifice your lives, and they sacrifice your lives." If the eldest brother commits suicide at this time, he can be worthy of death, the princes who went, and the tens of thousands of soldiers who have been following the eldest brother to die in battle. As long as the eldest brother can achieve great things and revive the Han family, then the princes and the tens of thousands of soldiers who have been following the eldest brother and died in battle are the real deaths. And the eldest brother committed suicide at this time. also fell for the tricks of Cao thief and Zhang Xiu's thief. The eldest brother must save his life, as long as he arrives in Jingzhou. With the soldiers of Jingsheng Gong, you can avenge the princes who died in battle, and hate tens of thousands of soldiers! ”
Chen Zhi heard it and said loudly: "What the prince said is reasonable, and the lord is killed!" ”
Liao Hua, Guan Ping, Sun Qian and others next to him, as well as Wen Ping and Wei Yan, also said: "Uncle Huang and uncle, don't commit suicide!" ”
After Liu Bei listened, with tears in the corners of his eyes, he threw the double-strand sword in his hand and grabbed Guan Yu and Zhang Fei's hands. cried: "Second brother, third brother! Then he looked up at everyone and said with tears in his eyes: "Princess! Then he took a deep breath and said: "I, Liu Bei, swore on this day that I should destroy the rebels and traitors in the world and restore the glory of the Han family in this life, and I will live up to the people who helped me Liu Bei, which is against this oath." When ten thousand arrows pierce the heart and die! After Liu Bei finished speaking, he pulled everyone's hands together one by one, even Wen Ping and Wei Yan were no exception. He said loudly, "I hope you will help me to accomplish this!" ”
Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and other old generals of Liu Bei responded in unison: "We will help the eldest brother and uncle to complete this ambition!" Wei Yan also joined loudly. Wen Ping hesitated for a while, and also replied loudly.
After Liu Bei's performance, the originally sluggish atmosphere was swept away, and everyone's depressed mood was restored. And Liu Bei's eyes flashed imperceptibly with a trace of essence.
After the oath, Guan Ping walked into the cabin to take care of San, and he didn't know if it was God's favor or Guan Ping's skills, Guan Xing, Guan Suo, and Zhang Bao were not injured, and they were still asleep after getting on the boat, so the sound of the oath was too loud. woke up all three of them, so Guan Ping took Sanxiao into the cabin.
Wei Yan helped Guan Yu into the cabin to rest, the previous battle had aggravated Guan Yu and Zhang Fei's internal injuries, plus a bumpy road. and the ups and downs of emotions, which makes the situation of the two even worse. Chen Zhi and Liao Hua went to bandage their wounds, and in a big battle, the two of them suffered knife wounds and arrow wounds in many places, and if they were not bandaged, they were afraid that the injuries would be aggravated.
Wen Ping thoughtfully directed the fleet forward.
At this time, Liu Bei asked the doubts in his heart, only to hear him say to Sun Gan: "Gongyou, how did you find the preparation?" ”
Sun Gan still had palpitations at this time, and sighed: "Fortunately, the young scribe reminded him, otherwise he would not have been able to arrive in time." ”
Liu Bei heard it and read strangely: "Young man? Liu Beike couldn't remember what young scribe he knew, so he hurriedly asked, "What does that young scribe look like, and who is his name?" ”
Sun Qian shook his head. He replied, "I don't know." On the way to Jingzhou, I met this. The young scribe, who was about twenty years of age, must have passed the age of the weak crown, but he refused to say his name. As if he had known that Qian was going to Jingzhou to ask for help, he taught him some rhetoric, and asserted that he had to use his rhetoric to persuade Liu Jingzhou to send troops. Qian didn't believe it at first, and only resigned to talk about Liu Jingzhou with his own words, but failed, and then he was worried about the lord, so he used the words taught by the young man to talk about Liu Jingzhou with the mentality of giving it a try, and he really succeeded after a try. ”
Liu Bei was amazed when he heard this, and hurriedly asked, "What does this person say?" ”
Sun Qian recalled for a while, and then said the words of the young scribe, to the effect that Yuan Cao was fighting in the north, and the winner should be the lord of the Kwantung region, and Zhang Xiu in the west was in Guanzhong, and the northwest was stable, and the trade routes in the Western Regions were opened, and the strength would grow by leaps and bounds, which was definitely a big disaster. In addition, the tiger Sun Jian occupied Jiangdong. Jingzhou has become a must for the winner between Zhang Xiu's Xiaosun Jian and Yuan Cao, but with its current strength, Jingzhou must protect itself. But if Yuan Cao decides the winner, and Zhang Xiu completely annexes Yizhou, then it is basically impossible to protect himself with the strength of Jingzhou. Therefore, Jingzhou must expand its strength, so accepting Liu Bei is a necessary choice.
This is an analysis of the situation, followed by the problem of money and grain, Zhang Xiu has opened up a trade route to the Western Regions, and Zhang Xiu is attacking Yizhou. Then there will be no need to rely on the road from Jingzhou to Yizhou in the south. With the consistent grudge between Zhang Xiu and Liu Biao, the chance of the opposite is very great, if Liu Biao does not take the lead, I am afraid that it will be too late by the time Zhang Xiu makes a move. Jingzhou no longer had the capital for peace talks at this time. Jingzhou has become the next target of the remaining princes of the Han Dynasty who need to be annexed, if Liu Biao does not make a move, I am afraid it will be too late, it can be said that Liu Biao has no way to retreat, the only way is to save himself, and accepting Liu Bei, strengthening the strength is the only way to save himself.
Sun Gan used some analysis to really move Liu Biao. So he sent the general Wen Ping and the newly invested Wei Yan to lead the troops to the rescue, and at Sun Gan's request, the water and land armies were dispatched at the same time.
Liu Bei heard this, and said puzzledly: "How could Gongyou have a request for Jingsheng Gong to dispatch both land and water armies?" ”
Sun Qian smiled bitterly and said, "It's not that young man's reminder, tied up and provided an explanation to Xiang Qian!" Wai Tahuan told the route of the Qian's march, and he was able to take the life of the lord in a cool way. At first, Qian didn't believe it, but when Qian persuaded Jie Jingzhou with his words, he knew that this person was not simple, so he did what he said. Sure enough, General Wen and General Wei successfully attacked Pang De's department, who was going to ambush the lord, and if there was no naval army to answer Xinye. I'm afraid that at this time we are still being pursued by Zhang Xiu's cavalry. ”
After Liu Bei heard this, the surprise on his face not only did not disappear. On the contrary, it was even stronger, and he lost his voice: "Could it be that this person has the wisdom of ghosts and gods?" Without coming to the battlefield in person, the road to Jingzhou and the ambush arranged by Xu Huang and Chen Gong were clearly calculated, so that Gongyou could lead reinforcements to save his life. ”
Sun Qian shook his head and said, "I don't know if this person has the wisdom of ghosts and gods, but he is definitely the most powerful among the people Qian has ever seen, and he is definitely a first-class talent, and what is even more rare is that this person is still so young." ”
After Liu Bei heard this, his eyes were extremely hot, and he grabbed Sun Gan's hand and said, "Gongyou, do you know where this person is now?" ”
Sun Gan shook his head and said, "Qian only met this person once and left. However, he is very familiar with the geography of Jingzhou, he should be a person from Jingzhou, and there are many talents in Jingzhou, and he can secretly investigate after the lord arrives in Xiangyang. In addition, many scholars in Jingzhou were dissatisfied with Liu Biao's shoucheng, and after the lord arrived in Jingzhou, he could not only secretly recruit trade talents, but also investigate the traces of this person. ”
Liu Bei heard this, nodded solemnly and said, "Gongyou is reasonable!" ”
Xu Huang failed to kill Liu Bei here, and Zhang Xiu's attack on Bajun was progressing smoothly, with Gan Ning, a Bajun who was familiar with geography, Zhang Xiu had already led a large army to conquer Xuanhan. On the other hand, Huang Zhong was reminded by Zhang Xiu that although the army took a lot of detours, it also successfully conquered Hanchang. In this way, Zhang Xiu has completely established a foothold in Ba County, and the northwest part of Ba County is completely owned by Zhang Xiu. Its army can attack Jiangzhou in the south, Badong in the east, lock the road between Jingzhou and Yizhou, and take it in the west
Lake.
The situation seems to be very good, but in Xuanhan City, Zhang Xiu is frowning, Tai Shici's attack on Jiangyou failed, and he lost his troops. Originally, the budget for attacking Jiangyou and Zhang Xiu would fail, but he did not expect that the loss of Tai Shi Ci's department would be so large, and the Hanzhong Corps lost nearly seventy percent.
Zhang Xiu's face was unhappy. The plan to attack Jiangyou was Fa Zheng's idea, so he immediately found Fa Zheng and showed Fa Zheng the defeat of Tai Shi Ci and Li Ru's analysis.
Fa Zheng's face turned black when he saw it, and the more he looked at it, the more ugly his face became, and when he saw that in the end, he was in a cold sweat, and immediately said to Zhang Xiu: "Lord, you are incompetent, General Taishi is tired of losing his troops, please punish the lord."
Zhang Xiu waved his hand and said: "At this time, it is useless to hold anyone responsible, it is already a fact that the army was defeated, and the reasons should be analyzed." Filial piety has been with this general for a long time, and the design and strategy are among the first-class in the world, even if it is against Guo Fengxiao of Wenhe and Cao Ying, I am afraid that he will not lose so badly. If it is said that filial piety leads to the enemy, Ben will first disbelieve himself, and filial piety may come up with the reason? ”
After hearing this, Fa Zheng immediately arched his hand and said, "Thank you for your trust." To be able to see through the correct strategy, it should be extremely familiar with the positive, and it is based on the flaws in the correct character, so General Taishi will be calculated by the enemy every step of the way. ”
After listening to this, Zhang Xiu lowered her head and thought hard, and said secretly: "In Yizhou, I am familiar with Fazheng, it is not it."
Before Zhang Xiu could say it, Fa Zheng over there had already thought of it, and said loudly: "It must be him, Zhang Song and Zhang Yongnian!" ”
Zhang Xiu also thought of this name in his heart, after all, it was Zhang Song who called Fa Zheng to enter Yizhou, but Zhang Xiu was lucky enough to intercept Fa Zheng and make him stay under his command to serve, at that time Zhang Xiu also wanted to rely on the relationship between Fa Zheng and Zhang Song, as in history, to obtain the topographic map of the mountains and rivers of Xishu drawn by Zhang Song, so that it became much easier to attack Yizhou.
However, it backfired, Zhang Xiu's path was destined to be the enemy of the world's family, Zhang Song, as a member of the Yizhou family, naturally stood on the side of the Yizhou family in the face of Zhang Xiu's strategy for Yizhou. Although Liu Zhang is weak and incompetent, he can at least allow the Yizhou family to exist, but the imperial examination system implemented under Zhang Xiu's rule is obviously for the purpose of cutting off the family from generation to generation as officials and obtaining a special status. The imperial examination system has been in place for many years. The world's families have seen Zhang Xiu's threat, but the places occupied by Zhang Xiu are all the places in Kansai, where the strength of the Han family is the weakest. And Zhang Xiu did not attack the family's stronghold of Kanto on a large scale. Therefore, the families were only on guard against Zhang Xiu, but did not really join forces to deal with him, and there were also contradictions within the family, and the land of Kanto was not completely controlled by the family, so the Yizhou family was the first family to really deal with Zhang Xiu.
The Yizhou family is not as powerful as the Kanto family. But the strength of uniting together should not be underestimated, even Zhang Song, who had surrendered to the enemy in history, stood on Liu Zhang's side, Zhang Xiu already had a premonition that the road to attack Yizhou this time was not smooth, and it would definitely be a bloody road.
Now all that Zhang has taken is the northwestern part of Ba County. The terrain here is complicated, and it is inhabited by the Ba people, so the family ignores this place. The places where the real family power is concentrated in Yizhou are Badong, Jiangzhou and Shu County, which are the base camp of the Yizhou family, and Zhang Xiu must capture these places one by one if he wants to really control Yizhou.
All this flashed in Zhang Xiu's mind, and in just a moment, Zhang Xiu understood the key. But we really have to think about the future of this country and this nation, and we should not simply use force to level the world. If it were that simple, the Yuan Dynasty, which was extremely powerful for a while, would not have fallen, and the countries established by force would have been temporary rather than long-lasting, and there are too many examples of this in the exhibition of world history. Therefore, in order to establish a dynasty that can live a long time, a reasonable system is the only way out.
There are too many irrationalities in this era. Since Zhang Xiu has crossed over, he needs to change him single-handedly, not just use force to subdue everything. Wenzhi and martial arts, both indispensable, Wenzhi is the root and pillar of maintaining the life of a dynasty and even a nation, and martial arts is the foundation to ensure the continuous development of cultural governance. In history, the Chinese civilization can last for 5,000 years, which is the credit of Wenzhi, but the road is extremely tortuous, Zhang Xiu now has to do is to make the road straight and no longer tortuous, and the family of this era is the biggest stumbling block hindering the progress of the nation.
