"Liu Bei left Runan, Yuzhou, and went to Jingzhou?" Liu Wei got the news.
Liu Paopao's children's shoes, who had been lingering in Runan, were suddenly thrown out of Runan, and the direction he ran out was the direction of Jingzhou.
"He doesn't want Yuzhou anymore?" Liu Mang was a little puzzled. This Liu Paopao children's shoes is obviously a mad dog. Basically, the things he bites are not let go. For example, in Xuzhou, Liu Paopao, after being kicked out by Liu Mang's cheap father-in-law Lu Bu, can lurk in another To be a dog in front of Cao Cao is to take Xuzhou back to him.
Now that Liu Bei actually gave up the Yuzhou he had acquired, he didn't want it anymore, which made Liu Wei puzzled.
"Report Your Highness, there are still Sun Qian and Sun Gongyou left in Runan, and there are already 20,000 soldiers and horses!" The informant reported.
"Sun Gongyou? There are still 20,000 soldiers and horses? It seems that our Liu Paopao has really learned not to put eggs in one basket!" Liu Mang spoke calmly, this Liu Bei is really ready to grab it with both hands Get ready, the first move is to go to Jingzhou. If he succeeds in entering Jingzhou, then Liu Bei will be able to make a comeback.
And if he is unsuccessful in entering Jingzhou, that's okay, at least he still has 20,000 soldiers and horses left in Runan, Yuzhou, and he still has capital.
So our Liu Paopao children's shoes can be attacked when advancing, and defend when retreating.
"My lord, do you want us to let Gongjin and Bofu send troops to intercept Liu Daer?" A veteran beside him said, this person has already given up his military power and joined the Yangzhou Military Department, Huang Gai Huang Gong replied.
This person is a famous Jiangdong general. Sun Jian, Sun Ce, and Sun Quan were successive monarchs. He was a county official in his early years. Later, he followed Sun Jian to travel north and south. If it wasn't for him Liu Mang intervening. It won't be long before that Chibi Fu was really sung by our old general Huang.
Jiangdong surrendered, and a group of Jiangdong's veterans all put down their military power. Although they were old, they were still on the front line resolutely. That was because they wanted to repay the great kindness of their predecessor, Sun Jian. Go do your best to assist the young master Sun Ce.
But now that Sun Ce has also surrendered Yangzhou, their originally tense hearts have suddenly relaxed. Naturally, they don't want to go to the South and the North anymore. After all, they are still old.
But people are old, this heart is not old.
Huang Gai has changed from a military general on the front line to the current counselor of the Ministry of War. This official position is also on the scale of the third rank in Yangzhou.
Although there is no real power, it is very important. It can even be said that 60% of the officers in the Yangzhou New Army are under the guidance of these military counselors.
the tasks of their counselors. In wartime, it is the person who makes plans and formulates tactics and strategies. Charge into battle without them, but how to fight, how to fight is something they need to consider.
When it is not a war, but on weekdays, it is the teachers of the Yangzhou Military Academy who pass on their experience in forming troops.
Even Liu Mang asked them to publish books, write down their experiences, and make their books for those officers to read, and their books began to be sold on the market. Some scholars, although they have not been on the battlefield, But from these words, I can feel a different feeling.
The experiences of these veterans in "The Biography of General Huang" and "My Life" are really touching and exciting.
As for your saying that these warriors are illiterate? Hehe, there are special people listening to what they say, and then there are special people to write and adapt.
With such disturbances in Yuzhou, the counselors of the Ministry of War naturally wanted to discuss countermeasures together.
"Yes, my lord, we can't let this Liu Daer enter that Jingzhou. Once he enters that Jingzhou, it will really be letting the tiger go back to the mountain to leave future troubles!" There is another general surnamed Huang, none other than our Huang. Loyal old general.
"Intercept Liu Paopao?" Liu Mang said indifferently, "Why do you want to intercept him!"
"Your Highness, did your Highness forget that Shiyuan? Didn't you forget that Zhang De?" Tian Feng, an old minister, spoke. Tian Feng already knew the identities of Zhang Fei and Pang Shiyuan, so he reminded Liu Mang. Don't let Liu Bei seize the opportunity to enter Jingzhou. With the ability of Pang Shiyuan, this Jingzhou will really belong to Liu Bei by then.
"No, let Liu Bei go in. If Liu Bei doesn't go to Jingzhou, how can I have an excuse to send troops to Jingzhou? If Liu Bei doesn't enter Jingzhou, how can I get Yizhou?" Liu Mang laughed lightly.
What is Liu Bei's plan to enter Jingzhou, he Liu Mang may not know, then the identities of Pang Shiyuan and Zhang Fei have already been inquired clearly by Liu Mang, what Liu Bei is thinking, he Liu Mang will not know
If he had intercepted it, Liu Mang would have intercepted it long ago, and it would not be too difficult to kill Liu Bei directly.
But Liu Mang left Liu Bei behind, not because Liu Mang was kind, but because Liu Mang needed Liu Bei, a shit-stirring stick, to go to Jingzhou and completely muddy the water in Jingzhou for him.
Only in this way can Liu Mang send troops.
As for why you asked Liu Mang not to send troops directly to attack Jingzhou? Liu Mang also thought, but that person, he owes her too much, and she only has one request, that is, Liu Zong still inherits the throne of Jingzhou, so Liu Mang is not allowed to set foot in Jingzhou.
Liu Mang agreed, but now that Liu Bei has gone, it's hard to say who the lord of Jingzhou is. Liu Paopao is also a springboard for Liu Mang to enter Jingzhou.
The other is Yizhou, Yizhou Shepherd Liu Zhang, speaking with conscience, he Liu Zhang has no conflict of interest with our Master Liu Mang, and it can even be said that Liu Zhang also helped Liu Mang, Yizhou is the land of abundance, Grain is abundant.
The grain that Liu Zhang sells to Liu Mang is calculated at 80% of the price. In view of the fact that Liu Mang and he are both members of the clan of the Han Dynasty, it can be said that Liu Zhang is the rare person who values the friendship of the clan. .
Liu Mang wants to get Yizhou, because Yizhou is a natural land for grain production for Liu Mang. Although Yangzhou has a lot of land, Yangzhou is now implementing a policy of encouraging births.
Giving birth to a baby would mean losing several acres of fertile land, who wouldn't? In addition, there are no entertainment activities in this ancient times. So when I went home at night, everyone went to make little people.
One result of this is the people of Yangzhou. It has become a substantial increase since Liu Mang came to power.
family. If you don't have seven or eight children, you are ashamed to say you are from Yangzhou.
These children are still young now, and they will inevitably start a family in the future. At that time, there will be insufficient fertile land in Yangzhou, so what Liu Mang needs is to expand the territory to divert people.
This Yizhou is also what Liu Mang has always wanted.
But Liu Mang didn't want to play Ang En's wrongdoing. He sold you food and grass at a low price in front of him, so that you could solve the plight of the girl grass, but you turned around later. Attacking others is not only a matter of character, but also a matter of morality.
In the final analysis, Liu Wei is not as thick-skinned as Liu Paopao, and not as dark-hearted as Cao Cao.
And if Liu Bei entered Jingzhou? Hehe, it's hard to say, if he got Jingzhou, would he plan to plot Yizhou? Ghosts believe it! And once he plans to plot Yizhou, it's time for Liu Mang to send troops.
When he occupied Yizhou, he was saving Liu Zhang, not harming him.
"My lord, wise!" Everyone said to Liu Mang over there in unison.
Liu Mang nodded. The Yangzhou side had formulated a general policy for him, and Liu Pao ran to leave. Let him go, let him go when he wants to go to Jingzhou, and even Yangzhou deliberately let Liu Bei let him go to Jingzhou.
And after entering Jingzhou, Yangzhou does not need to worry about what he will do. Our Liu Paopao children's shoes will definitely work for his family in Yangzhou with peace of mind.
As for Liu Bei's success? Hehe, Liu Mang is really not worried. In Jingzhou, Liu Mang has already controlled the important roads of Jiangxia. If he sends troops, he will directly send troops to Jiangling. In this way, the generation of Xiangyang and the five counties of Jinnan will be divided.
In addition to the elite soldiers and horses in Yangzhou, and those cannons? Even if Liu Bei is beaten with iron, he has to be turned into a scum for me.
After Liu Mang got off the court meeting, he went directly to a house in Shouchun.
There are two large characters written on this house, "Cai's Mansion!"
When they arrived at the gate of the mansion, naturally there were soldiers coming to greet them immediately, and Liu Mang also turned around and said yes one by one.
"Go, call Mrs. Xiaocui for me!" Liu Mang said to Guan Hai under his hand.
Guan Hai nodded, and soon someone went to call Xiaocui.
Xiao Cui is none other than Madam Cai's personal servant girl. Because of Liu Mang's wildness that day, Xiao Cui also stepped into Madam Cai's footsteps. Among the ladies in Yangzhou, they can be regarded as first-class ladies.
"Husband, did the court meeting end?" Xiao Cui saw a smile on Liu Mang's face. Her identity is considered to be the lowest among Liu Mang's wives. Even Qian Yu is better than Xiao Cui, because how can Qian Yu It is said that she is also a barbarian princess who can bring benefits to Liu Mang's great cause.
And Xiaocui is just a small maid, but fortunately Xiaocui is kind and unwilling to earn more, so she is very popular among the girls.
"Is she alright?" Liu Mang saw Xiao Cui, and that's what he said.
"Husband! Ma'am, it's okay! With me here, you don't need to worry about it!" Although Xiaocui felt a little sad, because Xiaocui came to take care of the owner of this mansion for a long time. I thought to see Liu Mang, Liu Mang would miss him very much, even Xiao Cui was looking forward to seeing Liu Mang, but Liu Mang's first call was Madam, although Xiao Cui had a premonition, she was still very excited. uncomfortable. So when Xiaocui spoke, her smile dimmed a bit.
Liu Mang was thinking about that person, but he didn't notice the gloomy look on Xiao Cui's face.
"Can I go and see her?" Liu Mang continued to ask.
Xiao Cui quickly put back the gloom, and smiled again, "Husband, madam, although she has gotten better recently, she still doesn't want to see you!" Xiao Cui said to Liu Mang.
"He still doesn't want to forgive me!" Liu Mang was very distressed. "Forget it, forget it, it's all my fault!" Liu Mang was about to leave after speaking.
"But!" Xiao Cui suddenly shouted behind Liu Mang.
"but?"
"Husband, Madam doesn't want to see you, but she is willing to let you meet the little prince!" Xiao Cui said to Liu Mang over there.
"Is this true?" Liu Mang looked at Xiaocui with wide eyes and asked.
"En!" Xiao Cui nodded, it was because Xiao Cui finally begged Madam, her knees were already bruised, and it was all because she knelt in front of Madam and begged.
"Go, take me there!" Liu Mang said anxiously, he subconsciously pulled Xiao Cui, how could Xiao Cui keep up with his footsteps, and with the injury on his knee, his face couldn't help showing Distressed look.
But at this time, Liu Mang didn't notice, and Xiao Cui didn't say much, and forced Liu Mang into a warm room, enduring the pain.
There was already a nanny waiting in the room, waiting for someone, Xiaocui waved her hand, telling the servants to retreat.
Liu Mang was about to walk over to pick up the little prince, but was stopped by Xiaocui.
"Husband, the little prince just fell asleep!"
"Oh, oh!" Liu Mang's excitement dissipated a lot, and he slowly began to calm down. He looked at him who was still in his infancy.
"Xiao Cui, look, his eyes, don't they look the same as mine!" There was no one else in Liu Mang's eyes except this little life. This is his son, his Liu Mang's son.
It's Liu Mang's flesh and blood, so Liu Mang can't be excited.
"And that nose and mouth, it's not like me, it's like his mother!" Liu Mang spoke to Xiaocui over there.
Xiao Cui nodded in agreement. Originally, this should be a very warm scene.
But Liu Mang forgot, he forgot to give someone medicine when he went out today.
A Deba's voice sounded, "Why didn't I see that this little prince looks like His Highness, if Zhang Cheng looks like a bear like His Highness...then..."
Before Zhou Cang could finish his words over there, a strong killing intent rose up.
"Your Highness, I'm going, I'm going!" Zhou Cang shut up for a while, he squatted down with his head down, like a ball, rolled out of the room holding himself.
If he stayed in the room again, Liu Mang couldn't control himself, and might chop up that bastard with a knife.
"Xiao Cui, I will teach you here, you must take good care of her, and you will be rewarded when you come back!" Liu Mang said to Xiao Cui.
He looked at the little pudding again, then went out, and snorted coldly when he saw Zhou Cang, this time Zhou Cang's face was so loose that he looked like a dead father.
After sending Liu Mang and others away, Xiaocui also returned to the greenhouse.
From behind the screen came out a woman in palace costume! Quietly watching the leaving figure over there.
"Ma'am!" Xiao Cui shouted, looking at the woman in palace costume over there, Xiao Cui's face was a little flustered, because it was Xiao Cui's own initiative to bring that person to see the little prince.
"Get up, you don't need to call me Madam, you are Madam now, Princess Shu! You will no longer be able to kneel down and worship people casually!" The woman in court clothes said to Xiao Cui.
"Ma'am, Xiao Cui will serve Madam for a day, and she will be Madam's handmaiden for the rest of her life!"
"Hey!" The woman in palace costume sighed.
Looking at the woman in palace attire, Xiao Cui couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, "Madam, are you really unwilling to see him? Husband is wrong, but Madam, he is him!"
Xiaocui wants to defend Liu Mang.
But it was stopped by Mrs. Cai.
"Xiao Cui, do you really think I don't want to see him?" If Mrs. Cai didn't want to see Liu Mang, how could Liu Mang see the child.
"It's not that I don't want to see you, but I can't!" Madam Cai's mouth was full of bitterness. (To be continued..)
