What Dong Fu said was indeed reasonable, and Liu Bei had to admit it.

Liu Hongyi made a mistake in not clarifying his heir in time to cut off the suspicion of the outside world.

The second mistake was that he did not discover his real opponent, so he missed the opportunity to unite He Jin to fight Yuan.

No matter what, He Jin is also a relative of Liu Hong, and Yuan and He Jin are not related by blood.

As long as Liu Wei's heir status is clear, He Jin will not be easily co-opted by the Yuan family, which will affect the layout of the Yuan family, and once the Yuan family loses He Jin's reputation as a general, there will be many constraints in doing things.

As the third duke, Yuan Kui has many things that cannot be operated personally, and someone must help him implement his plan, and this person must have a certain status and power, and the political rank is relatively low, and his brain is not very good.

He Jin is his most suitable choice.

Without He Jin, Yuan Kui couldn't find such a suitable person to take the blame, and with He Jin, Yuan Kui's operation would have the possibility of implementation.

These two people get together, they can do things or they can do bad things, it mainly depends on the situation.

Faced with this situation, Liu Hong did not do the most correct thing, and moreover, he made the most intolerable mistake - he died.

Liu Hong's death was the most important factor in his failure.

If he lives, no matter what the world becomes, the inertia of rule brought to him by the Son of Heaven for twenty years can still be supported for a while, and no one dares to enter the palace in the bright light while he is alive.

As long as he lives, as long as he doesn't go out to play in person, then no matter how much He Jin and Yuan Kui have more ideas, they can't really do it, they can only deter and deter to the end.

But Liu Hong died at an important joint point.

Why Liu Hong died, how he died, and when he died is something that Liu Bei can't determine at present, because he has changed a lot of things, and I don't know if there will be some details that will affect Liu Hong's life and death.

This is also the most important variable that Liu Bei cannot control at present.

And Liu Bei's plan for this is the intelligence system, as well as Zhang Rang.

Zhang Rang can be said to be his biggest guarantee, and even Lu Zhi can't be regarded as his guarantee, Zhang Rang is.

Liu Bei believes that if Liu Hong really has an accident, Zhang Rang will definitely try his best to let him know about it as quickly as possible.

Then he called him back to Luoyang.

Liu Bei can be sure of this.

Because after losing control of He Jin, the new army did not have Zhang Rang's share, and Liu Hong did not use Zhang Rang and Zhang Rang's people to control the new army, which was a major uncertainty for him.

Under the huge political risk, Liu Bei believed that Zhang Rang had already sensed that the crisis was coming, and in this case, the only person who had said that he wanted to protect him, and the only person who had the ability to protect him, was himself.

Luoyang must go back.

What Dong Fu said was a false proposition.

With Liu Bei's current identity and status, if he can't return to Luoyang at this point in time to fight for power and profit, once he is successfully operated by He Jin and Yuan Kui, after destroying the eunuchs and dominating the imperial court, he doesn't need to wait for Dong Zhuo to come from behind, and Yuan Kui can take the lead in using the name of the Son of Heaven against himself.

Yuan Kui will definitely use the name of righteousness to launch a fierce political offensive against himself as soon as the new monarch ascends the throne, and when the time comes, he will be very uncomfortable.

If you want to resist, you must bear the infamy of being a minister and a king, and take the lead in losing your righteous name, which is a huge blow to your reputation, and Liu Bei is unwilling to bear this risk.

If you don't resist, will you watch everything you do become a captive of righteousness?

So Liu Bei finally rejected Dong Fu's suggestion.

"Dong Gong's suggestion is Lao Cheng's words to seek the country, Bei will think carefully, but at present, the situation is not so bad, Bei just wants to do a good job of what His Majesty delivers, there is no other idea, please Dong Gong don't misunderstand."

Liu Bei rejected Dong Fu's suggestion with a smile, and Dong Fu felt a little lost.

Because his goal is to persuade Liu Bei to take Liangzhou and Yizhou as his foundation, and then compete for hegemony in the world, retreat to protect Liangzhou and Yizhou, and find a safety valve for himself by the way.

Yizhou needs to be protected by a strong man who is capable and not greedy, just like Liangzhou was sheltered by Liu Bei, what Liu Bei did in Liangzhou, Dong Fu heard about it, and felt that Liu Bei was very capable in the means of governance.

It's just that Liu Bei didn't like this proposal......

However, Liu Bei's words made him feel that Liu Bei seemed to have other plans.

Dong Fu didn't understand what kind of idea Liu Bei had.

But this did not prevent him from choosing to leave and return to his hometown, he was still old, too tired, and needed a good rest for a while, maybe when he finished resting, everything would be settled.

After Dong Fu left, Liu Bei did not talk to anyone about the content of the conversation between him and Dong Fu, but devoted himself to his new work and life.

For the training and intensive training of this new army, Liu Bei is personally experienced, how to train the Liangzhou soldiers, how to train the Yizhou soldiers, whether it is a Han or a Gengren, the rules are the same.

At the inaugural meeting of the army, Liu Bei made an important speech, and then asked the officers to convey their intentions to all the soldiers.

It roughly means that no matter whether you are Han or a soldier or something else, after entering the army, when you are in the barracks, you all have only one identity, that is, my Liu Bei's soldiers.

Military regulations and military laws should be kept in mind, military discipline must be observed, and what should and should not be done must be clear when recruits are trained, or the kind that everyone must be clear.

No matter who violates military regulations and military law, he will never forgive, military law is like a mountain, and it is definitely not just four words written on paper.

Liu Bei also ordered the veterans who served as officers to widely spread among the army the famous cases of Liu Bei being punished for violating military law in the past when he was in charge of the army.

For example, the case of being beheaded for gambling in the army without permission.

There were also cases of beheadings for secretly drinking alcohol in the army.

There were also cases of beheadings for embezzling the army's food expenses and shoddy.

One by one, they are all the "achievements" of Liu Bei's army.

I give enough treatment, so I am also harsh, if you want to get my preferential treatment, you must comply with my harsh requirements, there is no such thing as two things in the world, don't think about taking advantage of loopholes!

On this issue, Liu Bei thought that the people would bring him some trouble, but unexpectedly, the people did not cause Liu Bei much trouble in this regard.

In terms of obeying military regulations, the people are really good.

It seems that although this fighting nation has an unrestrained character, it can reflect amazing obedience and organization in business, so in the process of Liu Bei's training, the performance of the soldiers is generally excellent, and the acceptance of military regulations is very high, which makes Liu Bei very happy.

In addition to training, Liu Bei will also communicate with his subordinates who have taken refuge in him.

Those people in Yizhou who have newly defected to Liu Bei have their own abilities, most of them are qualified for new positions, and they have great respect for Liu Bei, but among this group of people, there are also some who have more personality.

For example, Gan Ning.
