Chapter 340: I want him to see how reluctant I Xu Bowen is!
Liu Ba is quite famous in the country, and Liu Biao has asked for recruitment many times that year, but he was opposed, and then Liu Ba originally wanted to vote for Cao, but he was unexpectedly sent out and could not come back, and thought that there were many more capable people under Cao's command, and it was not good to have a bright future.
So he entered Yizhou, and now there are many henchmen, cultivating power, and having a lot of status.
He is good at the law, based on the law, upright and loyal, although he said that he did not defect to Liu Bei before, it does not mean that he does not like Liu Bei.
Therefore, after hearing the letter sent by Liu Bei, he was willing to help.
"If there is Zichu in Yizhou, maybe we can seize Chengdu and let Liu Jiyu give up Yizhou," Liu Bei quickly called Sun Qian to discuss, and beside him, there was also a strategist who he thought would be of great use.
It was Ma Tan who crossed the river with Lu Su, although he was young, although his temperament was not as good as his brother Ma Liang, but his talent and talent were also well-known among the Ma family, his people were arrogant, and after the last meritorious service to promote the Sun Liu Alliance, he inexplicably hung this merit on himself from the head.
During this period of time, Liu Bei respected him a lot, and the purpose was to surrender in the future, so when he got the news, Ma Jian was also under the hall, sitting in a position that did not move forward or backward.
For him, this position is not a disadvantage, and of course it is not a preferential treatment, but at least he has entered Liu Bei's group.
Ma Jian is also sad that his brother Ma Liang, who has seen the wrong person, has gone to the land of Xiliang, and whether he can go home in this life is a matter of words.
At least for now, they have counterattacked in Jingzhou.
So Ma Jian is now proud, of course, he also understands that the lord is worried about another place in his heart, which is Yizhou.
"Congratulations to the lord," Ma Tan thought for a lot, but finally came to a conclusion, and took the lead in smiling very brightly.
After discussion, he is willing to throw bricks and lead jade, he is willing to make that brick, "Yizhou Liu Jiyu, now it is obvious that he has been forced to a desperate situation by Xu Zhen, as far as I know, now Xu Bowen has stationed soldiers and horses in Hanzhong, built three fortified cities, cultivated day and night, soldiers and horses patrol the camp, and the people and soldiers are definitely ready to fight. ”
"If I am Liu Jiyu, no matter how good my heart is, I will be angry, of course he can't surrender Xu Zhen, Yizhou has never paid any tribute in the past ten years since he broke away from the Han family, and Cao Cao is already a bad friend."
"At this time, if he asks for help from Cao Cao, he must have driven away the wolves, and he will come to Menghu again, he doesn't dare to either, for fear that the people under his rule will not remember how many merits, and they will be passed on to others after a few years, hehe......"
Ma Jian chuckled twice when he said this, and when he looked at Liu Bei again, there was a little more hope in his eyes, "Yes, in the next opinion, this Liu Jiyu is probably also waiting for you to enter Yizhou and take over this mess." ”
"If you want to protect the military and the people under your command, Liu Jiyu will not dare to fight, then you can only surrender somewhere, if they are all surrendered, of course, it is better to return to the hands of the lord, so that you don't have to be criticized for betraying your ancestors."
"Knowing this section, then it will be easy to operate, let Mr. Zichu open up the civil and military forces in Yizhou first, and the lord will lead the troops into Chengdu in the name of helping Liu Jiyu, and face Xu Zhen."
"After that, as long as you hold Xu Zhen's location, then you can rely on the moat, sit on most of Yizhou, and have at least five years of army, so you will have a foothold."
After Ma Jian finished speaking, he looked at everyone with a smile, he had already analyzed the situation with his words, and he jumped on the table, Sun Qian, Jian Yong and others had nothing to say.
According to their speculation, that is.
The main Liu Zichu is not a reckless person, he was originally calm, outstanding in learning, and very intelligent, otherwise he would not have been invited by Liu Biao three times and rejected three times.
can still protect oneself everywhere, if this is not a strong ability, that is, the potential is extremely high, and people are reluctant to use it.
Since he is a person who plans to act later, then he must have some understanding of the situation in Yizhou at this time, so he will write back to Liu Bei.
And looking at his words, he didn't say everything so deadly, just said that if you work hard, you can do it.
The matter is man-made, and it is not a sure thing to take Yizhou, it depends on what Liu Bei does after entering Sichuan and Shu, and how he can receive the hearts of Liu Jiyu and many courtiers around him.
I believe that he Liu Bei has such a ability, coupled with Liu Ba's operation, he can be regarded as promising.
Hearing this, Liu Bei was a little confused, because he didn't know what to do yet, if he agreed, he would immediately divide his troops to Yizhou, and there would not be many soldiers and horses left in Jingzhou.
Cao Cao looked like he was going to stay with you, and put away his soldiers and horses, without any edge.
Liu Bei really has an inexplicable fear, he is not afraid of Cao Cao's sharpness, what he is afraid of is that he is like now, as if he is watching a play, but once the army enters Yizhou, at the most critical time, will he suddenly march south and intervene.
And did he and Xu Bowen really break up?!
These two people have already broken up twice just by hypothetically.
Once took Liucheng and the White Wolf, expelled all the Southern Xiongnu and Wuhuan, and even accepted tens of thousands of clans in hand, and again took Qianghu, Xu Zhen led the armor to enter the Qianghu realm without warning, killed 800 miles back and forth, and collected a large number of Qianghu clans as vassals.
And Cao Cao took the opportunity to embark on a new path for Duke Wei.
What if this time is also fake, and the two of them don't have the slightest contradiction at all?
But if you don't benefit from the state, I'm afraid it will chill the hearts of many people, although Liu Bei doesn't know those people.
But when he thought about it at this time, according to Liu Ba's statement, there were already many people who supported welcoming this Jingzhou Uncle Liu Huang into Sichuan and Shu to help him and accept Yizhou's proposal.
Basically, he only needs to go to Yizhou for a few months or half a year to show his benevolence and bravery, and then many people will have the desire to follow.
Therefore, Liu Bei should have such courage to go in, and then send troops to defend Jingzhou to show his military strength, if he does not dare to go, it means that he is also too busy to take care of himself.
So how could those scholars in Yizhou choose to support and follow, this should be the time to be brave and diligent, so there should be no hesitation.
But he was afraid.
I'm worried about what's going to happen.
"Brother, you still have to make a decision early."
Guan Yu said coldly, when everyone looked at it, he was gently stroking his beard, his eyes squinting to look somewhere, but his attitude was very resolute, and then he turned his head and smiled at Liu Bei: "Jingzhou is guarded by me." ”
"I only need 30,000 elite soldiers to defend the city, and my brother can only take the soldiers and horses to Yizhou to resist Xu Bowen, at least for a few years."
"In the land of Jingxiang, there are still millions of people now, I can recruit troops through battles, hoard grain and grass month by month, and at the same time occupy the river banks in the territory to ensure water sources, so that Cao Cao will not have a chance to take advantage of it."
"As for Jiangdong Sun Quan, when they also need a little respite, they shouldn't be too pressed, after all, Sun Quan has just taken over the power of Jiangdong for only a year, so there is nothing to be afraid of."
Guan Yu's words are actually big words, but in order to reassure his brother, he can only say this in front of people, if there are many soldiers and horses, of course it will be more stable.
But 30,000 is his lower limit, if it is less, he is afraid that it will be difficult to support alone, if there are 30,000 dispatches, fight slowly, it is not too difficult to hold.
Besides, you can still recruit troops all the time.
Liu Bei thought for a long time, and felt that the eyes cast by Wenwu at this moment were full of hope, and he understood that he could not hesitate now, and he had to make a decision immediately.
So he sighed and said: "Yun Chang, I will hand over Jingzhou to you, I will give you 50,000 soldiers and horses, be sure to defend it." ”
"Brother, don't worry!"
Guan Yu breathed a sigh of relief, the more soldiers and horses the better, and although he was worried about Xu Zhen, he knew Liu Bei's temperament, and he said that the 50,000 must have been calculated.
Moreover, after arriving in Yizhou, you can also recruit soldiers and horses, and get the food and armaments given by Liu Zhang, which is something that must be given to ask for help.
After discussion, Liu Bei left Sun Qian to Guan Yu, and he took Chen Dao, Ma Yan, Jian Yong and others into Yizhou in person, preparing to reply to Liu Ba.
Seven days later, he rode into Yizhou and sent the letter to Liu Ba.
After getting the letter, Liu Ba immediately teamed up with his henchmen and invited Huang Quan to speak to Liu Jiyu, making it clear that if the situation was not good at this time, he would inevitably take another male lord into Sichuan.
The best candidate is, of course, Liu Xuande, the only remaining member of the Liu family.
This Xuande Duke has risen from the end of the micro to now owns Jingzhou, and he also defeated Cao Cao in Chibi, claiming to have 800,000 soldiers and horses, what a majesty.
Some people even exaggerated that Xu Zhen and Liu Bei had always had a grudge, and Xu Zhen just didn't want to confront Liu Bei head-on, so when he was in Chibi, he took the initiative to resign and hid in the north.
In this way, he was actually a little afraid of Liu Bei.
So, when Liu Zhang heard about this construction, he immediately agreed.
He originally felt very dissatisfied with being pressed by Xu Zhen, but now that Liu Bei is here, he can just help him resist Xu Zhen's atrocities, and after half a year, the date agreed by Xu Zhen will end, so if he doesn't pay it back, he will have a full reason to attack.
When the time comes, Xu Zhen will be an unrighteous teacher, and the people will not support him, so he will be morally weak, and he will have a chance to win.
However, Liu Jiyu seems to have underestimated Liu Bei's soldiers and horses, and after entering Sichuan, Liu Bei sent Wei Yan, a new general under his command, to record the mountains of Chengdu along the way, the location of the ambush soldiers and horses, etc.
Drew a lot of maps in his hand to hide, as soon as he arrived in Sichuan and Shu, he immediately left the soldiers and horses in the easy to defend and difficult to attack, and then occupied two checkpoints, he took Wei Yan and Chen to Chengdu alone to meet Liu Jiyu.
After the first meeting, Liu Bei talked about the wine, and then Liu Bei was always unsmiling, although he drank during the banquet, but he also asked how to supply grain and grass during the period in Yizhou.
Liu Zhang smiled bitterly and promised 200,000 stones, which made Liu Bei very grateful, in addition to food, there are also armaments and money, and there will be no shortage of everything.
Liu Bei brought 80,000 soldiers and horses, enough to live here for a long time, and after the camp was guarded, he would not easily give Liu Zhang the opportunity to sneak attack and investigate.
When the two met for the first time, Liu Zhang suddenly felt as if he had been cut off a large piece of meat, which asked his family to help, and the cost actually seemed to be greater.
It's fine if it's a stranger, just negotiate the price.
But Liu Bei has the name of the clan relatives of the Han family, and he is the person who is currently stationed in Jingzhou, and the so-called clan relatives were indeed everywhere back then, and after King Jing of Zhongshan, there were even more people who did any kind of work.
But now, there are not many people who can be called famous and dare to still hold the Han flag to show their clan identity.
Liu Bei is the male master, Liu Zhang does not dare to slack off, and he is his own clansman, so he must give a lot to be satisfied, otherwise he will be snubbed in the future, and his reputation will be discredited, and he will be criticized by the people.
So, the matter of the garrison was thus decided.
When Liu Bei left, Liu Jiyu sent him far away, from the entrance of the mountain road to the forest, and then watched him lead his troops north, from Chengdu to the north, to build a camp across the moat from Hanzhong.
Zhang Ren found a new place for him to be stationed, and informed him of all the important trails, rivers, mountains and other places.
After settling down, out of old friendship, Liu Bei also sent a letter to Xu Zhen, which was regarded as a war letter, standing in the name of the clan relatives, condemning Xu Zhen's treachery.
and called him to turn back to the shore, and turn from darkness to light.
Don't be so perverse, like a thief.
Xiliang's reputation has not been good all these years, Xu Zhen has won Xiliang, don't become such a barbarian and unreasonable, and then come to trouble the world.
The letter was delivered to Xu Zhen's hands, and he immediately discussed with Wenwu, who sent the letter, with a smile.
At this time, in the Hanzhong Bureau, the renovated government office has expanded several times, and the materials are extremely luxurious, of course, this luxury is also relative, if you want to spend money to buy, it must be luxurious.
But these materials are all their own people, mined in mines and mountains and forests in various places, which is equivalent to their own things.
It is not a luxury, if something is not traded, then there is no value effect of the commodity, it is useful.
This government office, compared with the Yecheng of Wei County in those years, is more than equal, the ground is wide and the wall is high, the tile roof is magnificent, and the area is extremely wide.
It is no different from the palace hall, but it is still called the government office.
The Cheqi Mansion is also in this gorgeous government office.
Clear-eyed people can basically see that sooner or later, this rider will also be crowned, and if he can't get the title of the Son of Heaven himself, then he can even be self-proclaimed.
】
Of course, the risks will vary.
Above the lobby, Xu Zhen knelt in front of the high-ranking chair, Jia Xu stood in front of him and arched his hand, and said with a serious face: "Liu Xuande is not easy to come here. ”
"I'm afraid that Xu Du will implement, the prime minister is highly talented, how can he let Liu Bei go away and not attack his Jingzhou, now he should shrink his troops and defend it for a long time, and he doesn't plan to make trouble with Jingzhou, so Liu Bei has an opportunity to enter Yizhou."
"Liu Jiyu invited Liu Xuande to come, and his purpose must be to reject us, just like when Liu Bei entered Xuzhou back then."
Xu Zhen smiled: "Wen He can't understand it, this is the prime minister helping me." ”
Jia Xu was stunned for a moment, his face was awe-inspiring, "I want to hear the details, how to help the car ride?" ”
Zhuge Liang, Pang Tong and others, all of them are thinking, they are not as smart as Xu Zhen, in fact, they are all about the same people.
The grasp of the war has also been familiar with the road over the years, and now the understanding of the famous people in the world has also reached the point of familiarity.
However, in terms of understanding Cao Cao, of course, none of them are as good as Xu Zhen, so after all, they have to be half a beat slower.
Xu Zhen said with a smile: "Brother Xuande is willing to write to me to disturb the hearts of our army and disturb my public opinion, which means that he wants to attack urgently." ”
"I should also reply to him and tell him that no matter how eager he is, I will not accept it, so that Brother Xuande can be anxious."
"We have to make him anxious, and the less anxious we are, the more anxious he will be."
"Don't fight, shrink."
Xu Zhen smiled at Jia Xu quite weirdly, raised his eyebrows and said: "Turtle shrinkage, if you don't fight, you won't fight, let him see how capable I Xu Bowen is." ”
Jia Xu frowned.
What are these words.
I've never heard anyone describe themselves like that.
