Liu Bei and Zhang Fei returned with Liu Chan. On the way, Liu Bei asked Zhang Fei how Zhang Bao was after getting married?

Zhang Fei said listlessly: "Don't mention it, Zhang Bao said that the smell of mutton on her body is too strong, let her bathe frequently every day, eat less mutton, eat more light, change clothes every day, smoke the house with spices, and it is troublesome to talk!" ”

Liu Bei's eyebrows trembled and said, "It's bitter!" ”

Zhang Fei waved his hand and said, "Bao'er is not bad, she has survived." I didn't sleep in a separate room, I learned some Qiang language, and I spoke better! ”

Liu Bei said: "That's good, Bao'er is very competitive." When I go back, I will prepare a few treasure knives for Bao'er to send to Baihuwen, so that Bao'er can be close to them! ”

Zhang Fei said: "Bai Huwen is quite kind, and gave me a good horse, more than 30 healthy horses, hehe!" ”

Liu Bei said seriously: "The grassland tribe of Baihuwen's tribe, instead of letting the horses slim down and buy, it is better to be a favor."

By the way, third brother, I will fill in another twenty batches for you when the thirty healthy horses go back, and you will distribute them to the guards who have been whipped by you, and say some good things. ”

Zhang Fei said embarrassedly: "Big brother knows these things!" ”

Liu Bei said: "Do you think that Lei Tong will only be your deputy general, and you will apologize and appease Lei Tong after beating people, but the eldest brother is too lazy to be verbose, and he will not listen to you, and he will keep them by his side after beating people, people's hearts are fickle, how many times have I said it."

Don't always let Lei Tong be gracious, you should also show kindness to the guards, give them on the horses, and say some good things!

Don't forget, Lei Tong, every time you clean up the aftermath, he has two good horses, and he is bringing a pair of Jingkai! ”

He shook his whip and said, "Did you hear the third child?" ”

Zhang Fei promised: "I heard it, I heard it, the little brother wants to thank Lei Tong and set up a banquet to entertain him!" ”

Liu Bei said: "Set up a banquet and drink, Lei Tong is also drunk, who will stop you from whipping Jian'er, you still have to change your drunken madness, big brother can stare at it, go back and think about who will watch you!" ”

Zhang Fei said with a bitter face: "Big brother, I can change it myself!" ”

Liu Bei joked: "Count on you to change it yourself, so you don't have to change it!" ”

The group returned to Ji County, and Liu Bei ordered Liu Chan to return to Hanzhong to help Zhuge Liang appease the people, and urgently recruited Liu Ba to inquire about the progress of Longyou's affairs.

Liu Bei saw Liu Ba coming in with a thick stack of silks, and hurriedly ordered Zhang Fei to take it.

After Liu Ba finished saluting, Liu Bei invited him to sit down and said with a smile: "It seems that the beginning of the fifty days has been busy!" ”

Liu Ba arched his hand and said: "I can't say I'm busy with the things that are within my account."

Wang, on the silk is the map of Tianshui, Nan'an's land, terrain, city, etc., which is very detailed. In addition, the minister also drew a map of the distribution of land in Longyou, a new map of the division of counties and counties, and made roads and garrisons in various places. ”

Liu Bei came and said with interest: "This king wants to take a good look!" ”

After speaking, Liu Bei unfolded the land map and said: "Okay, Zichu's mark is clear at a glance, very relieved!" Can you have a plan about how to allocate land at the beginning? ”

Liu Badao: "The minister's initial plan is to move 40,000 households, except for the land given to Qiang. The man occupies 50 acres of land and the woman 25 acres. fourth

Men and women are 15 acres of land, women are 8 acres, half of men are second, women are not class, men and women are over 16 to 60 years old, 13 to 15, 61 to 65 are second.

In this way, almost all of the existing land can be cultivated, and uncultivated land is not counted. The implementation of military tun in Jieting and Linjing County has nothing to do with the people, and it is not counted! ”

Liu Bei said: "Great, just do what Zichu said!" ”

Liu Bei picked up the map of the garrison and said, "What is the solution of this map?" ”

Liu Ba said: "This map of the troops is planned by the minister himself according to what he has learned in his life, and I hope the king will not be surprised!" ”

Liu Bei looked at the map and said, "It's okay, Zichu came up and told this king what you think!" ”

Liu Ba got up and pointed to the map and said: "The Longyou defense arranged by the minister is to set up a building and build a pavilion and post. Build roads and set up checkpoints. and the county seat, full of soldiers. ”

Liu Bei said: "Zichu will talk about it in detail! ”

Liu Ba said: "The purchase of the museum and the construction of the pavilion post are to enable the entire Longyouxi and Liangzhou, Nan and Hanzhong government orders and military orders to be quickly transmitted, and if there is an abnormal situation in each county, they can know each other in time and respond in time."

The king has already done this in Yizhou and Jingzhou, so the minister won't say much! ”

After a pause, Liu Ba pointed to the road and said: "Your Majesty, please see, this is the road of Longyou before, and the minister wants to repair the road and build it into a big road connecting the pavilion and the county."

The roads must be smoothed so that our army's vehicles and horses can pass quickly. Because this road runs through the county, our army can pass through the cities when passing, and the speed of the march will be greatly increased.

Take from Jieting to Ji County, the infantry can take this road one day earlier than before, and the cavalry can arrive in one day and one night if it is fast, not only that, but the speed of Liangzhou entering the counties of Longyou will also be very fast.

Therefore, because the road runs through the county, if the enemy army attacks, just close the city gate, and the enemy army needs to walk around the city, and the speed will be greatly reduced.

Checkpoints are set up on roads, bridges, ferries, and city gates. The minister's mark is to ask for orders to set up a sentry post.

The terrain ministers have seen it personally, and it is enough to garrison thirty people. There are trees on both sides of the sentry posts on the road, and if the enemy comes, they can cut down the trees to block the enemy's advance.

The sentry posts on the city gate are set up at intervals of five miles from the city gate, and they are equipped with things such as rejecting horses. It can effectively prevent the enemy from breaking through the city and avoid the loss of the hexagram caused by the sudden attack of Xiahou Yuan.

The checkpoints for bridges and ferries are simple, and the number of people does not need to be too large, mainly to prevent enemy attacks from destroying existing bridges and ferries. ”

Liu Bei said: "Zichu thought very well, this king is about to open up the Western Regions, attract merchants, and prosper everywhere." In this round of transportation, the merchants of goods transshipment naturally prefer the main road, so what if it is inconvenient to transport troops! ”

Liu Ba said: "The hall can play at this time. There are three types of troop transport.

First, the normal assembly, this troop transport road can be used or not. Because there are many people on the road, it is better to assemble and send troops than to take another hidden path to assemble.

The second is to rush to aid and transport troops, this situation is that the war has started, all counties and counties are immediately under martial law, and naturally there are not many people blocking the road.

The third is the emergency use of troops. At that time, I couldn't take care of so much, and the pavilion post along the way immediately ordered the merchant to clear the road and rush to the nearest building, and not to travel again.

If it is too late, you can send someone to forcibly clear the road, and the checkpoint will block the passage at the same time.

In addition, more roads should be built to connect various counties, but the width of the road should be limited to only two cars in parallel, so as to avoid being used by the enemy! ”

Liu Bei nodded and said, "Okay, this road allows the limited forces to concentrate in time without delaying the military situation." ”

Liu Ba said proudly: "Your Majesty, the construction of the road does not need to cost too much, and the minister wants to reduce the resettlement fee for the relocated people, and change it to busy farming, and the farmers will use the money to build the road and build the city." Not only can the people make money, but also complete our planning and reduce costs. ”

Liu Bei thought for a while and said, "Okay, I originally wanted to compensate the people more, and calculate the money for the work." But come to think of it, it's true that the pressure on money is too much! ”

Sighing, Liu Bei said, "Go on!" ”

Liu Ba flipped out a picture and said: "Your Majesty, please see, this is the original county seat, and the wreath is the county seat that can be omitted."

The minister calculated that the number of officials in Yizhou was 25, and one of them was an official, and the minister calculated the number of officials in Tianshui and Nan'an counties to be 40,000 people and 1,000 people, including the newly established pavilions and checkpoint officials.

And the county seat is to reduce the number of county officials, and the number of soldiers means that after the reduction of officials, the burden on the people will be reduced, and the number of men who work with the reduced burden can be reduced accordingly, and they will be added to the army to enhance their combat power! ”

Liu Bei said: "Zichu's good words, come to Zichu, sit down and say!" Liu Babai Xie sat next to him.

Liu Bei said: "What you just said is very good, this king is allowed, you can start to implement it, this king will return to Hanzhong in a few days, and this affairs are headed by you Liu Ba." Liu Ba was overjoyed and thanked.

Liu Bei said with a smile: "Tomorrow, everyone will rush back, this king will announce the appointment, and Zichu can prepare early!" Liu Ba retreated.

As soon as Liu Ba left, Zhang Fei next to him couldn't help but say, "Big brother, why are there so many Yizhou officials?" ”

Liu Bei said: "Third brother, I actually know very well that there are too many officials, but I can maintain the status quo, why!"

Can't move, what kind of person is this extra idle official, you can think of it, there is no way, most of the people Liu Zhang was there when he was there, Liu Zhang left his eldest brother to go, and the people's hearts were scattered at once.

Half of a girder was rotten and useless, and it couldn't be moved until a new support was found.

Why do I want to train and promote the children of the Shu people, so that after the unification of the world, the children of the Shu people can take on the heavy responsibility, and when the provincial officials are abolished, the Shi clan will be cut off, and the Shu people will be left behind, so that they can balance each other.

Third brother, cultivate more of our brothers' children and provoke the beams, I am not afraid that the prime minister and the general are all controlled by the children and grandchildren of our brothers, so it is impossible for the scholars to control us! ”

Zhang Fei sighed: "It's a pity, our brothers didn't study literature, and their sons all became military generals!" ”

Liu Bei said: "If the world is chaotic, you should be a general, and if the world is stable, you can go out and enter the general, right!" ”

Zhang Fei smiled and said: "Brother Xing, I'll help you settle down the country first, and then talk about the rest!" Liu Bei smiled and nodded.

Zhang Fei looked at the door and said, "Big brother, this Liu Ba used to look down on us, why is he working so hard now?" ”

Liu Bei said thoughtfully: "It's very simple, talented, lest it be empty, Liu Ba doesn't want to be unknown in the history books after all!" ”

After Liu Bei finished speaking, he got up and said, "Let's go, go and see the talents selected by Shiyuan!" ”

Pang Tong introduced Liu Bei to the carefully selected 100 people with high interest: "Your Majesty, among the 100 people, 17 are captains and captains, 20 are Qu Chang, 30 are Tun generals, and the rest are quite skilled Shi Chang and Wu Chang, and after a little training, they will be sent to the Central Plains to contact the people of Longyou who have been forcibly relocated, and cooperate with Yun Chang to disturb the Central Plains. ”

Liu Bei waved his hand and said, "The people selected by Shiyuan are very relieved, but where are their families?" ”

Pang Tong said: "Most of them have been forcibly relocated to the Central Plains, and it is because of this that they have the fighting spirit to bring their relatives back!" ”

Liu Bei shook his head and said: "No, this time it is extremely difficult to travel hundreds of miles, looking for and instigating the people of Longyou to rebel.

When they arrived, they incited the people to rebel against the south, and after that, would it be completely smooth sailing? Wouldn't Cao Pi send troops to stop them, and in the event of a setback, would they be able to hold on?

Their relatives are all there, and it is too unlikely that they will persevere to the end, so instead of risking being killed, it is better to surrender on the spot and reunite with their relatives, even if they can't return to their homeland. Living is the most important thing, and it is so rare to be a loyal and righteous person who can fight for his life! ”

Pang Tong's eyes rolled and said, "The king said!" ”

Liu Bei said: "These people need some influential scholars to be the leader, so as to enhance the intimacy and trust of the relocated people, they have acquaintances, and encourage them to get twice the result with half the effort, such as Pang De's brother Pang Rou, Tianshui Liang Qian, Liang Xu brothers, Longyou Li and so on are all good candidates."

As for the rest of the people, they must be loyal and tenacious soldiers who have been fighting for a long time, and those who are not strong have few concerns, and even if they have the slightest strength, they will struggle to come back, and even if they fail, they will fight to the death. ”

Pang Tong arched his hand and said: "After being taught, the ministers will immediately select carefully, and then change the faction!" ”

Liu Bei pulled Pang Tong and said: "I'm going back to Hanzhong, Huang Yuan rebelled, I don't know what's going on with Zhang Song, I'll go back and see."

Shi Yuan selects good and capable people, and can lead them back to Hanzhong. I'll take the first step, as for the matter of Longyou, I want to entrust it to Liu Ba and let him cooperate with Huang Quan! ”

Pang Tong responded: "Okay, although Liu Ba is arrogant, he and Huang Quan are compatible. Liu Ba's ability is enough, but this Longyou needs one person to coordinate the military, who is the king going to send? ”

Liu Bei said: "Liu Ba coordinates the military!" ”

Pang Tong raised his head and said: "The king Liu Ba is the best choice in political affairs, and the military may not be able to do a good job, besides, he is familiar with the people over there from Cao Pi!" ”

Liu Bei said: "It's okay, I think about it, the military power is controlled by Zhao Yun, Zhou Budo, Jiang Wei, Ma Hao and others, and Liu Ba is mainly responsible for the coordination and reinforcement of troops everywhere." ”
