Chapter 272: Crisis Awareness
It is said that Zhao Ci's medical skills are very good, and many people ask her to treat her diseases.
There are only a handful of people who can get his treatment.
Liu An has gathered a lot of talents over the years, and the Shouchun Palace really needs a goddess doctor like Zhao Ci.
His physical condition is getting worse day by day, and he hopes to become the emperor of the Han Dynasty in his lifetime.
"Doctor Zhao is not only good at medical skills, but she is also quite young and beautiful, so it is better to stay by your side."
Liu Qian wanted Zhao Ci to become his father's concubine so that he could take care of his father's health.
"She is Liu Zhang's concubine, and she may not be willing to be my concubine. But she must be left in Huainan and let Liu Zhang cooperate with us. ”
In order to fight the imperial court in the future, Huainan trained 200,000 elite soldiers.
The advisor Wu beside the king of Huainan was said that he wanted to seize the throne, and it was difficult to succeed.
In that year, Wu Chu and other Seven Nations Alliance sent troops, and in about three months, they were completely wiped out by the imperial court.
"It is up to man to plan things, and it is up to heaven to make things happen. Wu Chu and the other seven countries fought on their own, they were not fully prepared, and they did not have decent strategists. ”
Liu An analyzed the Seven Kingdoms Rebellion very thoroughly, and he would avoid repeating the mistakes made by Wu Chu and other countries.
He's waiting for the perfect moment, failing once, and never getting a chance again.
"Next year, the imperial court will send a large army to the Monan grassland, as long as the time is right. We sent troops to occupy Peijun, Hengshan, Yuzhang and other counties, and controlled the southern counties. ”
Wu was given advice to Liu An, even if it was not completely successful.
It can also occupy half of the Han Dynasty and confront the imperial court for a long time.
As long as you don't make fatal mistakes in the process of confronting the imperial court in the future, as long as you win the hearts of the people.
It is not impossible for Liu An to be called the emperor, and he adopted Wu Bei's suggestion.
Liu Qian believed that a lot of grain could be harvested in these places, and food and grass were indispensable for marching and fighting.
Then occupy the counties of the Central Plains, if successful.
There is a confrontation capital with the imperial court that occupies Guanzhong, and the imperial court occupies a geographical advantage.
There is also the fertile land of Bashu, which can provide a steady stream of grain and grass for the imperial court.
It was not an easy task to attack Hangu Pass, and it was planned for many years
Huainan has a large amount of grain, as well as a large amount of gold and copper coins.
There is more coal, and coal is used to build weapons.
Father and son looked at the map, and they made a plan for each step very carefully.
The rest depends on the will of heaven, and when it occupies the southern counties.
It is also necessary to win the hearts of the people and train more troops. This can only be successful, not failed.
If it fails, there will inevitably be a catastrophe of extermination, and Liu An has been planning for decades.
His delay in making a move is also related to his indecisive character.
Liu An was really afraid of failure, and three years ago, someone accused him of rebellion.
The imperial court sent waves of people to investigate, and it was also thanks to the advisers who gave him ideas.
In addition, he was cautious, so he was not cut off by the imperial court.
Liu An will not give up on taking the throne, but he feels that the time has not come.
Recently, he has attracted a lot of talents, and he really wants to bring Liu Zhang over.
Liu Fu has accumulated a lot of contacts for future generations, and Liu An has taken a fancy to this.
The second is that Liu Zhang has a lot of wealth, and Liu Zhang is unwilling to cooperate with them.
It may be that he is worried that failure will bring the disaster of extinction to his family.
Liu An stared at the Guanzhong region on the map, the throne of the Han Dynasty, and he was bound to win.
Liu Ling left the Shouchun Palace with Zhao Ci, and they were accompanied by several powerful guards.
They walked on the streets of Shouchun City, and the city was bustling and bustling.
Compared with the Red Marquis Kingdom, the area of the Red Marquis Kingdom is a little smaller than that of Shouchun.
The roads of the Red Marquis extend in all directions, starting from Liu Fu becoming the first generation of the Red Marquis.
paid great attention to the economic development of the Red Marquis, and it came to Liu Zhang's generation.
The Red Marquis Kingdom became more prosperous, and people came and went in Shouchun City.
Probably because of the cold weather, it feels like there aren't many people on the street.
"Shouchun is indeed very prosperous, probably because of the cold weather, there are not many people on the street."
Liu Ling explained to Zhao Ci that when the weather was good.
There are really a lot of people in the city, and there are a lot of goods.
There are many counties in Huainan that are lively and prosperous, and Liu Ling introduced some specialties of Huainan to Zhao Ci.
Introducing the customs and customs of various places, Huainan is not far from the Honghou country.
There are also considerable differences in the customs of several places, and the most abundant in Huainan is the coal resources.
"I'll take you to other places in Huainan another day to see and taste the local food."
Zhao Ci also wanted to take a look around Huainan and collect more evidence of the Huainan King's rebellion.
They came to Nancheng, where Liu Ling's mansion was located.
At this moment, they saw Liu Jian walking in the middle of the guards.
"What's wrong with him? How does it feel like you're being escorted like a prisoner? ”
Zhao Ci was a little surprised, didn't Liu Jian go to Chang'an?
Her Lang Jun helped Liu Jian go to Chang'an quietly, but he didn't expect to be caught back by them.
"He didn't know the danger outside, and his father sent someone to look for him. It took a lot of hard work to find it, and I hope he doesn't run around lately. ”
Liu Ling was not sure whether the evidence of his father's rebellion had been sent to Chang'an, when Liu Jian was found.
He did not have any physical evidence search for the rebellion in his hands, which made Liu An and the others feel uneasy.
Liu Jian was captured in Chenggao County, Henan County, and Wu was proposed to Liu Qian.
Send someone to guard there, Liu Jian and they will inevitably go to Chenggao.
Of course, Liu Zhang also knew, so he proposed to Liu Jian to let a person who was very similar to him pass by Chenggao.
Liu Jian himself changed his appearance slightly, and waited until Liu Jian was caught and sent back to Shouchun.
Liu Jian himself could pass through Chenggao and go all the way west to Chang'an.
If it weren't for Liu Zhang's help, Liu Jian would have been arrested and beaten.
Zhao Ci looked at him like a prisoner being escorted, so she asked Liu Ling what was going on?
"He's in his twenties and doesn't run around like a kid. He hasn't been causing trouble lately, has he? ”
"He's not in his right mind, so I'm afraid he'll get into trouble. So I sent someone to look for him during this time, but fortunately he was safe and sound. ”
Liu Ling said that Liu Jian's sanity was not normal, and Zhao Ci definitely didn't believe it.
It's just that they are worried that the physical evidence of the rebellion will be sent to Chang'an, which will affect their plans.
Zhao Ci also heard her Langjun say that if Liu Jian was arrested.
Inevitably, he was going to be beaten, and Liu Zhang really sympathized with Liu Jian.
Although, what he did was selfish, it was understandable.
Liu Buxi and Liu Jian did not live well in Huainan Kingdom, and they were not so free.
Liu Buxian was often bullied by Liu Qian, and even treated him like a slave.
Because Liu Buxian is a concubine, Liu Jian's move is to vent his anger for his father and himself.
Taking the initiative to report Liu An and Liu Qian's rebellion will not only exempt you from punishment.
can even be a marquis, so as not to be bullied by Liu Qian in the future.
Liu Zhang also told him that even if the physical evidence was in Liu Che's hands.
At most, a few counties were cut, which had little impact on Liu An.
Don't underestimate Liu An's ability, he has a way to dispel the court's suspicion of him.
Therefore, Liu Jian's move does not allow Liu An and Liu Qian to be severely punished.
He also had certain benefits in doing so, showing his loyalty to the imperial court.
Liu Jian could stay in Chang'an and be protected by the imperial court.
Liu Ling took Zhao Ci into the mansion and asked the maidservant to prepare a sumptuous luncheon for him.
And Zaoji was worried that the king of Huainan would rebel, and he might send troops to attack the Red Marquis State.
There were only more than 10,000 Han troops in the Honghou Kingdom, and Zhao Ci guessed that the army of the Huainan Kingdom had more than 100,000 troops.
The army of Huainan is not weak in combat, and if it is taken by surprise to attack the Red Marquis.
The Honghou Mansion was definitely the primary target, and Zhao Ci felt a huge crisis.
I hope that the imperial court can simply and neatly solve the Huainan King and others, and not be affected by the war to the Red Marquis State.
During his time in Huainan Kingdom, he had to collect important information for Lang Jun.
It is also necessary to make Lang Jun ready, war may happen at any time.
Zhao Ci entered the mansion to rest for a while, and after lunch was ready, Liu Ling asked the maidservant to invite her to the living room for dinner.
"I cooked all of this according to the recipes I brought back from the Red River Country. How about you taste it? ”
Liu Ling also likes this kind of stir-fried food, which is full of color, flavor and shape.
She also prepared wine for Zhao Ci, and the delicious food with red wine is a better enjoyment.
"Thank you Lord Weng for your hospitality!"
Zhao Ci thanked Liu Ling, and she tasted the dishes.
The taste is good, but it is worse than the dishes of Honghou Mansion.
In addition to putting the right seasoning, there is also the control of the heat.
The dishes cooked by the chef of Liu Ling's mansion are already very good, and Zhao Ci is not a picky eater.
"How does it compare to the dishes in Honghou Mansion? Please tell me the truth. ”
"Truth be told, these dishes are a little worse than the red kimono. But it still tastes good, and you don't blame the cooks. ”
Zhao Ci told the truth, hoping that Liu Ling would not blame those cooks for not doing well enough.
Zhao Ci ate with relish, so that Liu Ling could see that she was satisfied.
