Chapter 227, Huairou's Strategy
After a few days of speeding up day and night, a few days later, the Xiliang War report was sent to the table of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and Liu Bei immediately summoned Xun Yu, Jia Xu, Jian Yong and others.
Zhang Heng wanted to make a strange plan to cooperate with Ma Chao, but was later denounced by Ma Chao, and Feng Xiao planned to set up an ambush. Zhang Heng was killed by Ma Chao, and Liang Xing ...... was shot by Hansheng with three arrows, and the Xiliang departments were basically pacified. ”
Liu Bei first announced the battle report to everyone, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
He was originally worried that Ma Chao was worried about his father's death, and he was submissive on the surface but had a ghost in his heart, but now it seems that he is too worried.
After this battle, Ma Chao was available.
Because, in the future, he will be even stronger.
As for when Ma Chao and Huang Zhong were killed, he was not surprised, because the two of them were two of the five tiger generals in their previous lives, and he knew very well the martial arts of the two.
However, others don't know this, and they can't help but feel that they are like a cloud. Especially for Huang Zhong's archery skills of taking people's heads in 100 steps, he was even more amazed.
"Congratulations to the lord for getting two more generals."
Mi Zhu was the first to speak, and the others also said hello to Liu Bei.
It is worth mentioning that with the enhancement of Liu Bei's strength, the development focus of Hebei Zhen's family has also begun to shift to Guanzhong, and the support for Liu Bei's financial resources has gradually increased.
With the passage of time, Zhen has put all its resources on Liu Bei.
Compared with Yuan Shao, who they valued at the beginning, Liu Bei now obviously has more potential, which is why Zhao Yun and Zhen Jiang were able to tie the knot as they wished.
It's an investment that closes the distance through marriage.
Because Zhen Yan knew very well that he joined one step later, and his relationship with Liu Bei's generals was not as good as Mi Zhu, so he could only catch up in this way.
In addition, the two of them had the intention of having a concubine, so Zhen Yan also pushed the boat along the river and fulfilled this matter. After all, anyone with a discerning eye can see that Zhao Yun is highly valued by Liu Bei, and it will be a matter of time before he becomes famous in the future.
In addition, Zhen Yan also sent his second sister, that is, Zhen Tuo, into Liu Bei's harem.
This is a story of ups and downs, the reason is that Liu Bei went to Zhen Yan's mansion as a guest and accidentally bumped into the second lady who was in her prime, and it was like a thing at first sight.
Coupled with Zhen Yan's contribution from it, everything will be pushed smoothly.
Even if Uncle Huang doesn't value beauty, he is also a normal man. Besides, even for the sake of family inheritance, he should spread the branches and leaves.
Well, Zhen's genes are very strong, and several sisters are all beautiful and beautiful, among which the young Zhen Mi is even more pink-faced, like a little fairy.
Straight to the point.
Liu Bei continued to return to the topic: "In addition to the war report, Fengxiao also wrote to ask for instructions on the surrender of the Qiang people. In your opinion, what should be done with these 30,000 soldiers? ”
After he finished speaking, he sighed secretly, not knowing whether to praise Guo Jia for being sensible, or to blame the other party for not trusting him.
Before the departure of the Western Expeditionary Army, Liu Bei had already said that the matter of Xiliang was handled by Guo Jia with full authority. In other words, the other side has the right to decide the issue, including the Qiang people.
It's absolute trust!
But even so, the other party still wrote to ask for his opinion.
Is it to avoid suspicion?
Bong filial piety!
There was a moment of silence.
Xun Yu was the first to speak: "Dare to ask the prime minister, Feng Xiaoke once put forward his own opinions in the letter?" ”
If you want to say that you know the Qiang people best, it is Han Sui, who is in Chang'an at the moment, and Ma Chao, who is next to Guo Jia.
Both of them have lived in Xiliang for a long time and have some contact with the Qiang people, so they must know much more about this ethnic group than they do about it.
"Yes." Liu Bei nodded and said: "Fengxiao's proposal is to adopt gentle measures for the Qiang people, and these soldiers are also lightly punished, let them serve as laborers, serve for the construction of Xiliang for half a year, and then let them go." ”
"I agree with this proposal."
After listening to and thinking for a moment, Xun Yu expressed his approval.
"Why?" Liu Bei was puzzled.
Don't look at him now, he is benevolent and righteous, once upon a time, he was also a street fighter, and he was iron-blooded, otherwise he would not be able to suppress the werewolves such as Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, and Jian Yong.
The Qiang people were enemies of him twice, and the killing intent in their hearts was greater than benevolence and righteousness.
As one of Liu Bei's masterminds, Jia Xu unexpectedly closed his eyes and recuperated, as if participating in this assembly was just a formality, even if the discussion was about his hometown at the moment.
Gou Dao is a man who lives up to his name.
It's true that I, Jia Xu, am from Xiliang, but now I live in Chang'an, what does Xiliang have to do with me?
Seeing this, Liu Bei said helplessly: "Wenhe, don't you want to say a few words?" ”
"Huh?" Jia Xu seemed to wake up from a dream, and then said with a smile: "Prime Minister Yingming, Wen Ruo, Xianhe, Zizhong...... They are all virtuous, and after all, they are from Xiliang, so it doesn't seem appropriate to participate in this matter. ”
Liu Bei: "......"
Maybe he shouldn't have asked this man.
Jian Yong couldn't help but say when he heard this: "You Jia Wenhe doesn't work all day long, don't think that you can hide from the world by praising us a few words." ”
"Go to court on time every day and fulfill your duties, how can you talk about not working hard?"
"You ......"
Rao is Jian Yong, a man who was born in debate, and he was also defeated by this gang's scoundrel behavior. Why, you are only in charge of the affairs of your position?
Liu Bei couldn't help but feel funny when he saw Jian Yong's angry neck reddening, and persuaded: "Okay, Xianhe, you don't know Jia Wenhe's temperament, don't embarrass him." ”
Jian Yong flicked his sleeves: "I am ashamed to take the word "and" with you. ”
The crowd laughed.
Jia Xu: ...... Why don't I change the word?
Liu Bei smiled and looked at Xun Yu: "Wen Ruo, you go on." ”
Xun Yu nodded and continued: "The reason why Feng Xiao suggested that Cheng take gentle measures against the Qiang people is because he clearly knows what we need now. ”
The words stopped abruptly, he knew, and Liu Bei understood when he said this.
Liu Bei had indeed understood, what did they need now?
Recuperate!
Even with the wealth of Si Li, and the support of the two great riches, Mi Zhu and Zhen Yan, the months-long campaign of the 100,000 army has already made the treasury anxious.
And Guanzhong has been recruited by Dong Zhuo, and it is already ten rooms and nine empty.
If large-scale wars continue to be waged, there will be only one way left, to take the food of the people. However, in this way, it will lose the support of the people, which is a chestnut in the fire, not a long-term solution.
Therefore, Liu Bei now urgently needs a truce, develop people's livelihood, and operate the Guanzhong and Xiliang that he has just obtained.
If all the Qiang people are slaughtered, it is likely to lead to another big war, not because they are afraid that they will not win, but even if they win, there is no benefit.
It is better to keep these people and use them to build Xiliang and turn hidden dangers into productivity.
"Okay, according to the policy of you and Fengxiao, you can punish the Qiang people lightly. Of course, if they dare to continue to make trouble, then don't blame me for being ruthless. ”
Liu Bei's domineering words leaked out, and a domineering spirit arose spontaneously, which was an invisible momentum after the status was raised.
