Chapter 185: Yingchuan

Yingchuan Yingchuan, Yingchuan refers to Yingshui, Sichuan, you will know the status and location here. As soon as he thought that he could land millions of acres here again, Liu Pet couldn't help but be happy in his heart. However, these are not counted, the most precious thing in Yingchuan is definitely not the people or the fertile land, Liu Chong has now begun to look for candidates for the Taishou of Yingchuan.

Spring is full of joy, in the night, Liu Pet looked up at the sky and saw a group of birds returning at night, wandering over the forest in the distance. Because the radius was occupied by a large army for several miles, the flock of birds did not dare to descend easily, so they had to keep flying and flying overhead. All this, in Liu Chong's eyes, is full of hope and full of active atmosphere.

As if Chen Ji was in front, the chilling and murderous atmosphere of Bing Ge did not enter Liu Chong's heart at all.

"It's still in time for late spring."

Liu Dang heard Liu Chong sigh, and couldn't help but be moved in his heart, when, King Chen thought of the people in his heart, and it was Liu Kang's blessing to have such a master.

Liu Dang couldn't help but think of it, so he stepped forward and said: "King Chen, King Chen is benevolent, this is the blessing of Yingchuan, the blessing of Yuzhou, and the blessing of my Chen country." This time to pacify Yingchuan, 500,000 people in Yingchuan have to thank King Chen. ”

Liu Pet smiled and laughed a little sarcastically: "500,000? Huh, half a million? Liu Kang, do you know how many people were in Yingchuan before the Yellow Turban? ”

Liu Dang lowered his head, how could he not know that Yingchuan at that time had 300,000 households, which was a household, and if the head was counted, there were at least between 1.5 million and 2 million, that is to say, at that time, one Yingchuan was comparable to the entire population of the area under Liu Chong's jurisdiction now. To say that in the past ten years, there have not been much loss of population, and there are only two places, one is Yizhou and the other is Chen Guo.

Seeing Liu Dang bowing his head, he knew what Liu Dang was thinking. Liu Pet couldn't bear to tell Liu Kang, what is this, after the Three Kingdoms War in history, the current territory of the entire Han Dynasty in the whole world has a population of only five million. Hmph, war, how much fun.

Suddenly, Liu Chong stretched out his front finger, and said with great pride in his chest: "Liu Kang, in this troubled world, I want to end him, so that all the people can live the same life as the people of Chen State, no longer exiled, no longer hungry." ”

A word that was not loud was only heard by a few people, but at this time, Liu Dangdianwei and the others felt incomparably firm and resilient from Liu Chong's tone. Several people knelt down in front of Liu Chong: "I am willing to help King Chen (lord)." ”

"Hahahaha"

The sun was completely gone, and a hearty hahaha laugh startled the flock of birds, which was already stable.

"Ask Li Dian and the military advisor to come to my military tent, and say that I have something to discuss."

"Yes, King Chen."

At this time, under Liu Pet, there are three kinds of names for him. King Chen, the guards of the original Chen State such as Liu Kang and others, as well as the original officials of the Chen King's Mansion such as Luo Jun and others, most of them are called Liu Pet Chen Wang to show respect.

There are also people who take refuge in the future, in the form of recognizing the master, calling Liu Pet the main father. And this type of person is the most numerous and the most common, such as Dian Wei Xunyou and the vast majority of people are called so.

There is the last one, which is the least common. When Gao Shun returned to Liu Pet, he followed Liu Pet with the attitude of Hanchen's equal, although Liu Pet became bigger and bigger, but Gao Shun called "General" as always, and Liu Pet did not feel that there was anything wrong. Loyalty is not reflected by a title, and often people with bad intentions are more submissive on the surface.

After a while, Xun You, Li Dian and others entered the account one after another. Li Dian first: "My lord, because General Gan is in the northern camp, beware of Chen Ji escaping back to the city, so it is not appropriate to leave lightly." ”

Liu Pet smiled and waved his hand: "I know, sit, sit, it's useless to call him for today's matter." ”

Xun You and Li Dian looked at each other, their eyes full of curiosity. Xun You: "The lord asked me to wait, isn't it for Chen Ji in front of me, I don't know what else the lord can compare with the military?" ”

Liu Pet smiled, it seems that Xun You is not omnipotent. So: "Chen Ji has nothing to say, I don't think he is in a big camp, it doesn't look like he went out of the city." There must not be much food and grass in the army, and we have such an impregnable wall, and everything that surrounds him for three or five days has been solved. Now that Xiahou has fled back to Yanzhou, although there is no news from Liaohua, I believe that Gao Shun, my Chen Guo can be said to have no external trouble, and we can afford to wait in terms of time, so Chen Ji is not a problem. ”

After clearing his throat, Liu Pet said again: "I came today for Yingchuan." ”

Xun You heard this, and then woke up in shock: "The lord is thinking about the issue of Yingchuan Taishou and the future defense of Yingchuan?" ”

Liu Pet nodded, a military advisor is a military advisor, just a little bit of it, it's always a little faster than others. Li Dian: "My lord, Yingchuan, it is better to move the Yangxia camp west to Yingchuan, just like Yangxia Gongwei Chen Guo, as long as our army moves the camp to Yingchuan, Yingchuan will be safe." ”

Xun You was unexpected: "No, lord, you don't recommend this." ”

Li Dian: "Why is that? ”

Xun You: "Lord, General Li, Yingchuan is an important transportation artery connecting the north and south, and the road from Hebei to Jiangnan passes half from Huainan and half through Yingchuan. Such a heavy place is not unimportant. ”

Li Dian: "That's right, since the military advisor has figured this out, why is he opposed to heavy guarding." ”

Liu Pet didn't say a word, just listened to the discussion between Li Dian and Xun You, being a gentleman, sometimes you don't need to have much ability, but you need to be able to listen to the advice of your subordinates, it's enough.

Xun You: "General Li only saw one of them, but he couldn't see the second. There are Nanyang and Jingzhou in the south, Yanzhou and Yuan Benchu in the north, and even the land of Hanoi are all paying attention to the gains and losses of Yingchuan. Speaking of Nanyang alone, if our army is heavily stationed in Yingchuan, Zhang Xiu is afraid that no one will be able to sleep. At the same time, Yanzhou Tiger Cao Mengde must also be thoughtful. My lord, now that our army does not want to fight abroad, why should it arouse the vigilance and uneasiness of other parties. ”

Liu Pet nodded, feeling a little reasonable. Xun You: "General Li is a general in the army, and he attaches great importance to military defense, which is the lord's responsibility. However, General Li did not have to worry too much about the security of Yingchuan. First, Cao Mengde only sent Xiahoudun, and at the same time, he did not see Cao Mengde send any reinforcements to Xiahoudun, which shows that Cao Mengde did not make up his mind to fight with the lord at this time. If Yanzhou does not move, Hanoi and Hebei will not be able to. Besides, Nanyang Zhang Xiu, Zhang Xiu Xinli, this is the time to establish allies and stabilize the interior, at this time Zhang Xiu has a Liu Biao is enough for him to toss, and he definitely doesn't want to be an enemy of the lord anymore, so even if Yingchuan does not have a large army, it is safe. ”

Liu Pet smiled, Li Dian also nodded, Liu Pet: "Well, the problem of arming defense, but as the military advisor said, it is not suitable to garrison heavy troops, only there are soldiers from various counties and counties, through the road, like Chen Guo now, repair the road, Yangxia to the hinterland of Yingchuan, it is only a matter of a few days." Today, the two I want to ask are another question about Yingchuan, who can preside over Yingchuan? ”

Liu Chongyi said, both of them knew that Liu Chong was choosing Taishou, Wen Gao and powerful, this person is definitely a fish leaping into the dragon gate.

Li Dian: "My lord, this person must be loyal." ”

Xun You's eyes turned, and then he saw Liu Chong looking at him with a smile, and couldn't help but shout: "Lord, looking at the lord's expression, there must have been a candidate." Xun You couldn't help laughing, damn, you did it on purpose, you have chosen someone, are you still playing me.

Liu Pet looked at it, laughed, and then: "Li Zan any?" ”

Li Dian: "He? "I was a little surprised. Xun You was a little surprised: "Kong Lin? ”

The reactions of both of them were normal, first of all, Li Zan was only a long history, and he was not outstanding in Chen Guo's talent group, so Li Dian was a little surprised. And Xun You is different, Li Zan is a descendant of the Yingchuan clan and a descendant of Li Ying, and Xun You is a child of the Xun family, the internal relationship between these people is inextricably linked, and Xun You has an iron personal relationship with Li Zan, so there is a surprise performance.

Li Dian's eyes were full of doubts, as if he wanted to say: "Lord, could it be because he is the princess's father, so he ---"

Xun Yu was pleasantly surprised, calmed down instantly, and at the same time, his face immediately found the key: "The lord wants to subdue the heart of the Yingchuan scholar?" ”

Liu Pet laughed, once again happy because he had such an excellent military advisor.

"Yes, yes, Gongda knows my heart, hahahaha."

Seeing that Li Dian was a little confused, Xun You took the initiative to say for Liu Chong: "Okay, good, the lord's strategy is very good." Kong Linnai is a party hero, and he has an incomparable position among the people in the world. In addition, Kong Lin himself is a native of Yingchuan, and he has a lord and marries Kong Lin's daughter as a princess. In addition, Kong Lin is too guarded by Yingchuan, compared to the entire Yingchuan, he must die for the lord. ”

Li Dian suddenly realized that this was the case. Li Dian no longer understands these literary affairs, and he also understands the status of Yingchuan scholars in the Han Dynasty. Changshe Zhong's, Yangzhai Guo's, Yingyin Xun's, Xiangcheng Li's, Xuxian Chen's, Han Wuyang's, etc., all of which are respected by the world's great Confucian families.

Thinking of this, Li Dian couldn't help but be excited, if the lord could get the support of the entire Yingchuan family, oh no, half, it would definitely be comparable to the power of the Yuan brothers. You must know that Yuan Shu got half of Yingchuan back then, and he operated for so long, but he didn't get the support of any of the big families just mentioned, which shows how arrogant these families are.

Liu Pet is not as simple as Li Dian thought, how can a person get the support of the whole family of a large family, because it is impossible for any big family to put all their eggs in one basket.

Just like Xun You's Xun family, I heard that at least two people have gone to Yuan Shao's place now, and some have gone to Cao Cao's place.

However, let Li Zan be the Taishou of Yingchuan, although he can't get all the support, but he can win favor. Let the family of Yingchuan understand that I, Liu Pet, value you.

What Liu Pet understood, Xun You also understood, so after Xun You analyzed it a little, he stopped talking. Sometimes, Xun You is really afraid that Liu Pet will come like this: "Gongda, you go home and bring me a few talents to feed." "In that case, Xun You estimates that it will be difficult to do.

One is the order of the lord, and the other is the family, and he will die of martyrdom. Therefore, let Li Zan be the Taishou of Yingchuan, this action almost shows Liu Chong's attitude, and naturally there is no need for Xun You or anyone to go back to his hometown to invite talents.

Xun You looked at his lord, and couldn't help but be happy in his heart, how visionary the lord is, good, good.
