Chapter 183: Take control of the three counties

"Old man, I'm back!"

Liu Chan saw that there was no outsider in the hall, so he strode in and sat cross-legged in front of Lao Liu.

Regarding Lao Liu's performance after the death of his biological mother, Mrs. Gan, in fact, after discovering that he was not ruthless to his biological mother, Liu Chan was already relieved.

However, after so many years, I have been used to calling it, and when there are only two people facing each other, unless there is something to ask him to call two good sounds, this is still the most pleasant name......

Whether he is the state pastor, General Zuo, or the current king of Hanzhong, maybe he will become an emperor in the future, and he still can't change it when he only has the two of them.

The corners of Liu Bei's eyes jumped when he heard this: "Presumptuous!" If you don't respect the number of courtesies, how will you command the ministers in the future? ”

That being said, he didn't say anything further.

It used to be like this, and when I remembered it, I scolded it, but even if I scolded, I never touched the soles of my shoes because of this incident.

Liu Chan still goes his own way, and Liu Bei still lets it go, at least in front of outsiders, Liu Chan is still very restrained......

Just after saying two sentences, the two men who hadn't seen each other for a long time fell into an awkward silence again, as if they were waiting for each other to speak first, but they fell into a cold spot strangely.

"How's the situation in the three counties?"

"Is Mother alright?"

The two of them picked the same time to speak, but the questions they asked were different, and they fell into a state of staring at each other for a while.

In the end, it was Liu Bei who answered first, and he waved his hand and said: "Fortunately, the military advisor concluded that you can win quickly, and after I told her what the military commander said, I didn't think about it like last time." ”

Liu Chan was relieved a lot when he heard this, and his mother lost a lot of weight last time he came back, but it made him blame himself very much.

"It's just that every day you have to ask me several times if there is a new war report coming in, I am already overwhelmed, you can go see her later."

It's just that Liu Bei's gentle demeanor doesn't match what he said.

Their mother and son have been getting along harmoniously for many years, and their relationship is better than blood relatives, and Lao Liu is still very pleased.

He was originally worried that Mrs. Wu would use her mother's identity to take the opportunity to instill some ideas that were beneficial to the Dongzhou scholars, but he was too worried.

Mrs. has never talked about state affairs with Adou for many years, and she has never even used Adou to seek any benefits for her own brother Wu Yi.

This made Liu Bei very moved, and he really began to accept this widow lady who was older than himself in his heart, and the family formed by a political marriage gradually really had the taste of home.

Knowing that his mother was well, Liu Chan began to tell Lao Liu about the war in the three counties.

When it came to rescuing Liu Feng and defeating Cao Jiang alone, although Lao Liu didn't have much reaction on his face, the hand hidden in the sleeve of his robe was secretly clenched.

Liu Bei frowned when he heard this: "The soldiers are all forced to do it, how can they deliberately risk their lives?" ”

Liu Chan couldn't explain to him the problem of the trait trigger, but he naturally thought of another answer: "The enemy is outnumbered, if there is no surprise move, the soldiers will definitely be killed and injured." If the war is protracted and the people are in dire straits, how can the children endure? ”

Liu Bei's Opinion +2 (94)

Liu Bei's face, which had been tense, finally let himself show a natural smile at this time: "It's good that my son can have such a good thought." When you become a Lord, do not forget what you say today. ”

"Old man, why do you always say this? You are in such good health, don't talk about Cao Cao, I think Sun Quan's old boy has to go ahead of you, don't always say that it is unlucky. ”

"It's not big, it's not small!" Liu Bei feigned anger, but the smile on his face did not decrease.

Who would have no emotion for their own son? It's just that as a sovereign, there are too many things to consider.

In the past, I saw that Liu Chan was not angry, and he knew that he was messing around all day long, he was really angry, and he was so angry that he wanted to throw him to death.

But recently, I have seen my son grow up day by day, stronger than when he was a teenager, and it is also a joy from the heart.

When he gets older, he will always unconsciously think about what will happen after his death, and Adou is like this now, which really reassures him a lot.

"How is your brother's injury?"

Liu Chan said: "It's no big deal, if it weren't for my repeated warnings before leaving, I'm afraid that riding a horse and practicing martial arts will be the same at this time." ”

Liu Bei nodded.

"The Shen family brothers and Meng Da have been arrested, and we will use them to make an example of the monkeys and deter those restless families."

Liu Bei smiled when he heard this: "I'll listen, what are you going to do with them?" ”

Liu Chan said solemnly: "These three people colluded with Cao Wei and betrayed the master for glory, and they must be killed!" Not only to kill, but also to read out the crime in public, and then kill after parading through the streets, and publicize the crime in each county to set an example. ”

"And what about their families?" Liu Chan asked.

"All the family property was confiscated, and the personnel were sent to labor camp."

Liu Bei was stunned when he heard this: "Lao ...... Change? What does this mean? ”

Lao Liu himself has never killed other people's entire clan, and he doesn't want his son to be a murderer.

The last time Liu Chan killed Peng Yi so decisively, he was a little worried about this, but now it seems that his son doesn't have this idea...... But what does it mean to be in a labor camp?

"It's labor reform, the men were sent to Hanzhong Tuntian by me, and the female dependents stayed in the three counties to pan for gold, giving two meals a day, no pay, and let them have a good experience of the people's suffering." Liu Chan took a sip of tea, but unfortunately he still couldn't get used to it after so many years.

"How long is the deadline?"

"Deadline?" Liu Chan was puzzled, "Of course it's for life, Cao Cao is a thief, what is the difference between surrendering Cao and rebelling?" It is said that it is a major crime that should be punished by the nine clans, but it is not generous enough to be punished like this? ”

It's all free labor.

Those gold diggers and shady households who cultivated the land for the Shen family, who were in tattered clothes and hungry all day long, but the people they supported were full of brains.

It's just right, how did you fish and meat the people in the township before, but now you can experience it for the rest of your life.

Originally, those people who were enslaved by the Shen family and were willing to leave their hometowns to go to Hanzhong could also be assigned to the fields to become homesteaders.

Those who still want to stay in the three counties, Liu Chan plans to let them and Liu Feng's Qingzhuang join the Guantian, and the standard of division is the same as that of Qingzhuang.

Such a placement would also prevent these people from eventually becoming dependent on other families.

Although Liu Chan can give benefits to those three-county families and let them enjoy the development dividend and grow together, he doesn't want to see the next Shen family appear.

Lao Liu nodded after hearing this: "Okay, I don't think it's wrong for my father, so let's arrange it like this." ”

"Now that the officials of the three counties and those who are related to the Shen family have been dismissed by me, my father still needs to send officials to the three counties as soon as possible." Speaking of business, Liu Chan also changed his name.

"As it should be."

Liu Chan thought for a while and added: "By the way, my father needs to send someone who knows the "Shu Family" to accompany him to preach the law to the three counties. I have persuaded the local families and tribes that they are willing to obey the law, and the taxes, the upper taxes, the punishments, the military service, and the conscription of the three counties will not be of any benefit to any other place. ”

Liu Bei's Opinion +2 (96)

Liu Chan recounted that when he fought with Cao's army in the three counties, although the process was also very dangerous, because of the previous battle of Jingzhou, and the military advisor Zhuge Liang had already asserted that he could win, Lao Liu was not too surprised.

But now he was really surprised to hear that the families of the three counties were all willing to abide by the law, pay taxes, and even accept military service.

This kind of thing can't be solved by force alone, and even if it can be solved by force, it can't be solved so beautifully.

The three counties that do not kill are full of blood, and those mountain people with strong folk customs will not give in.

And in this way, there will be endless troubles, and it is necessary to maintain sufficient military strength in the local area, otherwise if there is a slight relaxation, those families will definitely cause chaos.

"Hehe, okay, I will send someone for my father." Liu Bei couldn't help laughing, but it made Liu Chan's eyes widen.

The old man laughed?! You don't think you're going to eat anything unclean......

Then Liu Chan said: "Father, although my brother is brave in battle, he has a strong temperament, is not good at strategy, and his actions are not meticulous enough. Although the three counties are lacking in property, their location in the Northern Expedition is quite important, and it is better to send a strategist to assist the elder brother. ”

If this matter can be properly arranged, the three counties should not have to worry about it.

After saying the matter, Liu Chan poured another big sip of tea, although it was not delicious, it could always quench his thirst.

"Hmm...... Why don't you let the Yu you recruit to assist him, how about it? ”

"Poof——! cough cough cough ......"

Liu Chan took a sip of tea and sprayed it all on the ground.
