If you really want to talk about it, this Bashu rebellion is not an unexpected thing.

The group of people living in Ba County also decided to rebel because they were stimulated by the uprising of the Yellow Turban Army in Yizhou and were extremely dissatisfied with the local officials.

However, because Liu Bei quickly entered Shu to quell the war, Liu Bei's amazing combat effectiveness made the people feel frightened and did not dare to make trouble.

So they hiberned for the time being, and no full-scale rebellion broke out.

However, with the departure of Liu Bei and the intensification of the contradictions between the officials and the people of Ba County after the war, at the end of July of the fifth year of Zhongping, less than a month after Liu Bei left Shuzhong, the people of the people began to rebel in Ba County, attacking the prefectures and counties, killing officials, and making great noise.

The county guard of Ba County could not resist, and was soon caught and killed by the people, Ba County was in chaos, and the new Yizhou Thorn Shi Liang Hu was even blocked in Hanzhong for this reason, and had to ask the court for help.

Liu Hong is in full swing preparing for the establishment of a new army, and he has no spare time to take care of Yizhou's affairs, he is annoyed that he simply wants to learn the special ability of his ancestor Liu Xiu, summon a flint from the sky to fall from the sky, and stone all those traitors to death.

How easy would that be?

It's a pity that Liu Hong is not a great magister.

So he thought of Liu Bei again.

"There are many barbarians in Yizhou, they don't obey control, and the officials are incompetent, which makes the court uneasy, which is really useless! Only Xuande can relieve my worries, and in this case, I will hand over all the military affairs of Yizhou to Xuande, so that I can also concentrate on the affairs of Luoyang City. ”

Liu Hong really didn't care about the in Yizhou.

He was busy dealing with the situation in Luoyang City and building a new army, and out of trust and dependence on Liu Bei, he decided to do it in one step and directly hand over all the security affairs of Yizhou to Liu Bei.

Anyway, Liu Bei manages Liangzhou so well, and Guan Yizhou must have spare strength.

The so-called capable people work harder, and this should be the case!

Therefore, at the end of July of the fifth year of Zhongping, Liu Hong issued an edict to add the post of governor to Liu Bei's hussar general, the military governor of Liang and Yizhou, and garrisoned Liangzhou and Yizhou respectively, so as to deter Xiaoxiao and maintain the stability of Liangyi and Yizhou.

Yizhou Assassin Shi Liang Hu was in charge of civil affairs, and all military affairs were handed over to Liu Bei to manage.

Of course, the military expenses of the imperial court are really unaffordable, and the military expenses for entering Shu this time will be borne by Liangzhou and Yizhou, but as compensation for the imperial court, part of the future taxes and fees can be exempted as military funds.

It is equivalent to the imperial court borrowing money from Liangyi Erzhou to fight.

In fact, if you really want to give money, Liu Hong can definitely afford it personally, and the income he gets from selling salt, selling officials, and other miscellaneous incomes is enough to support many small and medium-sized wars of 10,000 people, but he will not do this.

The affairs of the state, why should I pay personally?

It's not appropriate.

When the news reached Liangzhou, it was the beginning of August, and Liu Bei was still going back and forth in the state pastoral mansion and the state school at his own pace, carefully taking care of the affairs of Liangzhou state and state school that had been on the right track.

At that time, he was preparing to arrange a summer camp for the state school students, and planned to allow them to spend a month in the hottest summer season to enter the major collective farms in Hanyang County to do agricultural internships and become strong laborers for a month.

Liu Bei needs them to eat and live with the farmers, and feel the feeling of being in the hot summer [full of hot summer and scorching sky], and he thinks that this is very meaningful for the students to understand the hardships of farmers and the difficulty of agricultural production.

It is also very meaningful for students to accumulate common knowledge in agriculture and not to be suspended officials.

This matter was being prepared, and Liu Bei suddenly received an edict from the imperial court, and when he saw it, his inner emotions were very complicated.

It is not easy to enter Shu once, let alone enter Shu for the second time, and it will cost a lot of money.

However, this time Liu Hong reluctantly became a person, and promised to fight this battle by reducing taxes and fees, and he could barely be regarded as paying, not a pure white prostitute.

And what really interested Liu Bei was the position of the governor.

The governor was originally an official who supervised the army, and during the Jianwu period of the early Eastern Han Dynasty, because of the conquest of the Quartet, Liu Xiu temporarily set up the imperial history of the overseer to supervise the armies when he went out on the expedition, and he was dismissed after returning to the division.

At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, because of the increasing frequency of wars, the military title of "Dudu" was gradually formed.

The earliest appearance of the governor was in the third and fourth years of Guanghe, when Liu Bei was in Shangshutai to observe the government, and listened to Lu Zhi and others discuss this position, which was used to enhance the power of officials who went out to perform tasks.

And now, this position is Liu Bei's turn himself.

Looking at this meaning, this time, Liu Hong did not plan to withdraw immediately after the fact, but planned to press this title on himself, so he did not let himself withdraw his troops after the war, but wanted to garrison his troops in Yizhou to deter Xiaoxiao.

In this way, Liu Bei could almost feel how anxious Liu Hong was in Luoyang, so that he couldn't even take care of the rebellion in Yizhou.

Is it really this mess in Luoyang?

Liu Bei quickly got the answer.

Two days later, Liu Hui sent a message, saying that the news that the Son of Heaven was going to set up a new army to personally lead the city was circulating.

For a while, all kinds of news and rumors were running around, and it was difficult to distinguish between truth and falsehood, some said that the Son of Heaven was going to abolish the elder and younger, and some said that the Son of Heaven was going to drive the expedition in person, but they didn't know whether it was true or false.

At that time, it was only confirmed that the Son of Heaven wanted to set up a new army, because there were already areas around Luoyang that began to recruit troops.

When he learned of this, Liu Bei instantly thought of the special existence of the Xiyuan Army.

In the original history, Liu Hong set up the Xiyuan Army in response to the growth of He Jin's power and to prevent He Jin's power from growing to the point of traditional relatives.

And this time, Liu Bei judged that the essence of this matter was still the same.

However, this time, the growth of Yuan's power is a special variable.

The surrender of most of the forces of the ancient literature school and Yuan Shao's appointment as the general of Yulin Zhonglang happened suddenly during this time, and the military and political power belonging to the Yuan clan swelled suddenly, but the Yuan clan was relatively close to He Jin at this stage.

He Jin has been able to sit firmly in the position of general because of the success of many wars and missions, although the general was a little lame at the beginning and could not really show the power of the general, but four or five years have passed, and He Jin's position has been relatively stable.

Over the years, He Jin has developed his own power in a low-key manner, cultivated his own henchmen in a low-key manner, united with the scholars who are willing to cooperate with him, and at the same time did not forget to develop military strength.

And this power is still relatively stable, and there is gradually a trend of some very powerful generals in the past.

Liu Hong may have decided to set up a new army to consolidate the imperial authority and avoid the loss of imperial power because he discovered that the Yuan clan and the He clan, whose power had risen sharply, was too close, and the forces of the two sides had a faint tendency to get out of control.

After all, in this era, the imperial power does not naturally belong to the emperor, the emperor is not a natural power holder, the imperial power will only belong to the strongest, if Liu Hong is not strong enough, the imperial power is usurped, it is also very possible.

It seems that the situation in Luoyang is already on the verge of intensification, once the new army is built, He Jin and Yuan will inevitably react, and it is difficult to guarantee that there will be no emergencies when they compete with Liu Hong's new army.

Having said that, Liu Bei never knew whether Liu Hong had the idea of abolishing Chang Liyu, but he felt that this possibility was not very large.

Liu Wei is the son-in-law, Liu Xie is the concubine, and Liu Wei is so much older than Liu Xie, unless Liu Hong has a problem with his head, there is absolutely no reason why he would abandon his eldest son and choose his younger son to succeed him.

And he should also know what kind of turmoil this will cause.

There is an opportunity to ask him specifically, anyway, there is an information communication channel between the party and Liu Bei.

At the moment, Liu Bei still has to prepare for the conquest of Shu as soon as possible, so as not to erode the situation in Yizhou to the point of uncontrollable.

For those bureaucrats, Liu Bei has no confidence at all.
