The three of them were talking. Fan Lixiang lay on her back and listened carefully. She looked serious but weak, and there was a unique charm in her gaze. Zhang Ren was a gentleman. Although Fa Zheng was a little indiscreet on weekdays, he also had strong self-control at critical moments.
But Liu Zhang was different. He was not used to sitting on the ground and sat on another woman's bed. I don't know whether Fan Lixiang did it intentionally or not, but her thigh was faintly touching Liu Zhang's backside through the thin quilt. It was a different feeling, and Liu Zhang was a little distracted.
Liu Zhang moved to the bedside without leaving any trace, and said in deep thought: "Taishici is brave and resourceful. We are waiting for hard work. There is no reason to be invincible. However, we are about to return to Bashu via the river. There are many dangers. We cannot use too much troops. Be careful.
Arrange your defenses and go ahead."
"yes."
Zhang Ren and Fazheng exited, and Fan Lixiang pursed her lips and said with a smile: "Your Excellency, you are really like a wild goose plucking your hair. You must dig up all the firewood before leaving."
Liu Zhang smiled lightly and said: "I am thousands of miles away from Yizhou. I don't know if Yizhou is in turmoil now. I wonder what those properties are for. I just can't leave those things to Sun Ce. Chaisang has a special geographical location, far away from Guizhou."
Yang, Jiangxia, Nanjun and Jianye, the important town in Jiangdong, are all similar, and they are not close to each other. They are connected in all directions, but they are like an isolated city.
If I kill Sun Yi, Sun Ce will hate me to the core. Even if he withdraws from Chai Sang, he will not let me go. However, Sun Ce hastily mobilized his troops, and there will definitely be insufficient food and grass. If there is no supply of Chai Sang, even if he is furious, there is nothing he can do to me.
.”
"So that's it. Your Excellency has indeed done all the planning and foresight." Fan Lixiang smiled softly, then frowned, as if thoughtfully: "Your Majesty returned to Sichuan via Jingbei, do you want to give up Jingnan?"
Liu Zhang looked at Fan Lixiang in surprise: "Madam, do you think I have any other choice? Now that the army has come out from Chaisang, the combined strength of the four counties in Jingnan is less than a fraction of Liu Qi's army, and Wuling Liangqiao, Changsha Han Chao,
Basically, if you surrender temporarily under the majesty of my officer, you will inevitably surrender to the enemy without fighting. What will I do if I don't give up?"
"It's just a pity." Liu Zhang sighed: "After months of fighting and working hard, we ended up in this situation." Liu Zhang thought of Wei Yan again and couldn't help but clenched his fists. He had never wanted to kill someone so strongly.
Fan Lixiang propped up her limp body. The pain in her chest made her frown slightly. She smiled relaxedly and said calmly to Liu Zhang: "Sir, since you want to give up Jingnan, why not give it to me."
"For you?" Liu Zhang looked at Fan Lixiang steadily.
Fan Lixiang smiled and said: "Although I have only made two contributions to your lord, but since it is something you don't want, why not give it to me? Lixiang asks to be appointed as the prefect of Changsha."
"Your appetite is getting bigger and bigger. Are you going to go to Changsha to die before your injury heals?"
When Liu Qi's 80,000-strong army marched to Jingnan, Liu Zhang would never be so naive as to think that by sending Fan Lixiang to take charge of the overall situation, he could defeat Liu Qi's 80,000-strong army with just a few hundred Jingzhou soldiers. However, he couldn't figure out why Fan Lixiang asked for help.
, can’t help but wonder.
"My lord, would you rather give up Jingnan to Liu Qi than to me? This seems to be no harm to your lord."
Fan Lixiang continued to add fuel to the fire. Liu Zhang pondered for a while and said slowly: "Madam, you have actually made two contributions to me. One is Guiyang and the other is Chaisang. I have decided to appoint you as a powerful official."
, If I am lucky enough to return to Shu, one day I will open up Nanzhong, which is a barbaric wilderness. If I appoint a woman to govern, I will not be criticized by civil and military officials. Moreover, the barbarians who only value strength do not have the problem of favoring boys over girls.
Madam, why don’t you wait a little longer?”
Fan Lixiang laughed and said: "My lord is really considerate of the little girl, but the little girl still hopes to be an official in the Han Dynasty, in the wild wilderness, the barren mountains and rivers. I am a person who enjoys enjoying myself, so I may not be able to get used to it."
"Ma'am, do you insist?"
"persist in."
"Okay then." Liu Zhang sighed: "But even though Han Chao is not loyal to me, I don't need to give him any excuse for betraying him. Forget it, the governor of Changsha, I will appoint you as the governor of Guiyang, and also lead Jingnan.
Four counties.”
"Thank you, sir." Fan Lixiang was beaming with joy. She couldn't help but bend down and bow down. However, her internal injuries were suddenly affected and she couldn't help but cough. Liu Zhang reflexively stepped forward to help her. Through the thin gauze, he touched Fan Lixiang's mature and smooth skin.
His skin couldn't help but tremble, and he stood up calmly, feeling a little embarrassed.
"Okay, that's it. You rest first. After the battle with Tai Shici, you can immediately return to Guiyang with the old troops in Guiyang. However, Liu Zhang will not take his wife's death seriously."
Liu Zhang said and walked out in a hurry, fearing that if he stayed for a while longer, he would not be able to help but treat a seriously injured woman like a beast.
Fan Lixiang looked at Liu Zhang's back. She seemed to still feel the places touched by him. She couldn't help but pursed her lips and smiled, and shouted loudly: "Thank you, Lord."
With the full moon in the sky, Fazheng and Zhang Ren walked to the courtyard. Zhang Ren stopped and frowned: "Mr. Fa, I didn't dare to say it just now, but I always feel that we are a bit bandit in robbing property for no reason.
?”
Zhang Ren is a serious general. He first learned martial arts from Tong Yuan and then the art of war from Jia Long. What he learned was a military righteousness. When Liu Zhang asked him to kill someone, he would not frown no matter who he killed. But now he is asked to do so.
Instead of killing people, Zhang Ren could not accept it if he sent troops to rob property for no reason.
After hearing what Zhang Ren said, Fazheng laughed and said, "General Zhang, not only do you want to rob property, but I think it's not enough to just rob rich people."
"What do you mean Mr. Fa?"
Fa Zheng said negatively: "I understand what your lord means, which is to rob and burn all Chaisang's grain reserves and things that can be used as military supplies. In this way, Sun Ce will not be able to gain a foothold in Chaisang, and he will not be able to pursue our army from a distance. However,
In addition to the big families, there are also common people.
I don't know much about Sun Ce. Sun Ce may not attack the people in normal times, but I don't know that this time Sun Ce killed his brother and we fled. As Sun Ce is so strong, he will not let it go. He may forcefully expropriate the property of the people of Chaisang.
.”
"Mr. Fa, do you mean to rob the people's property as well?...But, the Lord's order is only to rob the rich."
"Of course you can't disobey your lord's orders. Let's do this. General Zhang only needs to do one thing. If he sees any powerful clan resisting fiercely, he will kill them on the spot. Leave the rest to me."
……………………
Taishi Ci's marching speed exceeded Zhang Ren's estimate. At noon the next day, the Jiangdong Army arrived at the city despite the spring weather. They learned from the rich people who had escaped from the city that Sun Yi was dead. The most powerful general in Jiangdong had his beard and hair standing on end.
After waiting for a rest, they immediately led the army to attack Chaisang City with a fierce attack.
"I am Taishi Ciye of Donglai. Where is the person who killed my three generals? Get out of the city quickly and offer the dog's head."
Taishi Ci jumped on his horse and danced with his spear, showing off his provocation.
The city gate was opened, and Liu Zhang led his generals out of the city to fight. He saw Taishi Ci from a distance. Sure enough, he was a tiger general with a tiger body and ape-like arms, a beautiful beard and a long beard. He was wearing a cast iron helmet and cap. His bow and arrows were shaking with the horse's hooves, and he was shouting curses.
The sound of shouts came, and the courageous spirit enveloped the whole place, and all the Sichuan army generals were eager to try.
