Chapter 268 The world is sealed, and the cocoon is reborn
Huang Yueying waved her hand and said: "My lord, don't worry, as long as the general method is determined, it will be finalized in the end. Besides, I think this method my lord said has been used by predecessors. During the reign of Qin Shihuang, this method was used to rub pottery inscriptions."
During the reign of Emperor Wu of our dynasty, Confucianism was the only one respected. In order to promote Confucian classics, rubbing tablets were used. The principles were similar, but they were not promoted and their value was not found.
If my lord fails to hand over this printing technology to the craftsmen in Chengdu, I will do it well, and Huang Yueying will be remembered for eternity, hehehe."
Huang Yueying smiles naturally, has a nice voice, white teeth, and flowing eyes.
Huang Yueying's eyes seemed to be very attractive. Liu Zhang found that he was easily brought in when Huang Yueying's eyes flickered. He coughed quickly and returned to the topic: "After solving the problem of talents, money and food, what about the third point of people's hearts?"
Huang Yueying's expression became serious, and she calmly said: "Actually, the first two points have been solved. If you have money and food, and the officials are loyal, most of the people's hearts will be loyal. For an ordinary monarch, the people's hearts have reached their peak.
But this is not enough for the lord. In the past, the Han Dynasty and the various princes now basically relied on the aristocratic clans.
The lord can be said to have destroyed the Great Wall by himself. No king can be without a supportive class. Since it was destroyed, a new Great Wall must be built.
If the lord wants to fight against the world's noble families, he must turn the inside into a monolith. The lord needs the absolute support of a class. If we can't rely on the noble families, then we can't rely on them. Yueying suggested that the lord win over two classes, one is the people at the bottom, and the other is the people at the bottom.
Is a businessman.
I said at the beginning that the people are short-sighted. If you give them food, they will be stable. But when the family resists the lord, even if they support the lord, they will not dare to fight against the family because of fear. Then we must give them courage.
.
I suggest that the Lord implement a chain system. The so-called chain is to lock up the composition of the people at the bottom like an iron chain. As long as they are locked up individually, they will naturally be separated from the family.
The specific method is that all tenant farmers, long-term and short-term workers and ordinary farmers are directly registered by the government, and the government protects their basic rights to live.
When a family rebels or engages in misdeeds and is exterminated, all the land and houses will be distributed to those who reported and resisted the family as appropriate. If the family is not worthy of being exterminated, the land and property confiscated by the government will also be distributed to the informants and those directly affected as appropriate.
People oppressed by the worldly clan.”
The so-called land distribution by the Sichuan Army is nothing more than renting the land to farmers without the right to buy or sell it. It is equivalent to taking the ownership of the landlords back to the government. The so-called land distribution is a way to suppress the noble families. In fact, no matter who owns the land,
It was the tenant farmers who were farming.
Liu Zhang gasped when he heard this. In this way, those common people were tempted by land and property. With the protection of the government, why didn't they go crazy and find fault with the family? Which of the current family has a clean butt?
I'm afraid the world will be in chaos.
Huang Yueying saw Liu Zhang's doubts and said with a smile: "There is no need to rush, we can only pursue the crime of rebellion now, and other crimes will be dealt with according to the previous Han law. When the remaining family customs improve in the future, it will not be too late to pursue other crimes
.
This is the popular sentiment of ordinary people. I believe that as long as this policy is implemented and trusted by the people, those clans who dare to rebel will be suicidal. Those people who covet the land and the people who have obtained the land due to the rebellion of the clans will become the lord's government.
The most staunch defender.
The second is businessmen. Businessmen are only interested in profit. The reason why Shang Yang emphasized agriculture and suppressed commerce was due to insufficient food production. The reason why the sage emphasized agriculture and suppressed commerce was because of corrupt morals. Both are justified.
Compared with the profit-seeking businessmen, the short-sightedness of the people is nothing. Therefore, it is more difficult to win over the profit-seeking businessmen than the short-sighted people, but it is not impossible.
If the people are short-sighted, we will give them land. If the merchants are looking for profit, we will give them benefits and let them know that only the lord can give them such benefits. If the lord collapses, they will have no chance of getting rich.
To achieve this goal, there are two means. The first is to cultivate business aristocrats, and the second is to cultivate business down-lines.
Commercial aristocrats refer to the wealthy people who have grown up relying on their lord. The easiest thing is for officials to engage in business, but I hope the lord will control this. Although it is effective, it is very harmful.
I suggest that your lord transfer all minerals, weapons and armor production, centralized cattle breeding and other government businesses to the private sector. The government only controls the lifeline and supervision. Once these things are distributed, the merchants who obtain them will make a lot of money.
And I can guarantee to the lord that the weapons produced by the workshops of multiple different businessmen will be of better quality than the weapons produced by the government. The most important thing is that these businessmen must be loyal to the lord, and they have been marked.
The brand of the lord.
The second is business offline, which is very difficult, but the effect is better, that is, the government uses the craftsman room to create irreplaceable things, and then let these merchants sell them.
For example, ink, the current ink can keep flowing for one third of the incense stick, which is good, but my ink can keep flowing for half an hour, as well as the lord's printing, and the refurbished waterwheel.
Just like that time at my wedding, if the crane breaks down, I won't tell you how. Only people like good generals can put the big rocks back in place. These industries are all profitable industries.
Take paper, for example. If only the lord could produce good and cheap paper, how many businessmen would go to the government to get the goods? Then sell them and make money?
This will create countless businessmen who make money from paper. Think about it, one day when Cao Cao comes to Yizhou, you only need to tell those people that if you collapse, the paper will be gone. Aren’t those businessmen going crazy? A lot of them
The military pay and food will be sent to the lord voluntarily.
In fact, there are many ways to restrain businessmen, but these two are in the early stage, that is, when business has not yet taken shape, primitive businessmen are cultivated. Later, business flourishes, and the lord's subordinates become a business system. As long as outsiders come in, they will
They will be afraid that the business chain will be cut off, and will support the lord.
Of course, I have heard about the debate on the Four Imperial Examinations that my lord presided over in Chengdu, the debate that made Zhou Bujie famous all over the world, and the commercial kidnapping of the government that Zhou Bujie said. I have to guard against it, but this is a very later matter.
We are still doing primitive accumulation, so there is no need to worry unfoundedly."
Liu Zhang leaned his head against the wall and looked at Huang Yueying intently. For the first time, he felt like he was stupid in front of someone. If Huang Yueying came out during the Three Kingdoms in history, the sprout of capitalism should have appeared in the Three Kingdoms, and it was special.
state capitalism.
Although Liu Zhang promoted business, except for the improvement of business in Chengdu, it is still basically a farming society, and Zhang Song's bank is so idle all day long.
And Huang Yueying's two suggestions, business aristocrats and business offline, are just the best way to open up the business situation, not only to promote business, but also to let businessmen use it for themselves.
Liu Zhang suddenly felt like he was seeing the blue sky through the clouds. He had been living in a haze. It turned out that there was only a layer of black cloth between him and the sun.
"The above are my suggestions for internal affairs. We have money, food, people's hearts and talents, and we have the people and business class that fully support us. As long as there are no accidents. I believe that in three to five years, Jingyi Prefecture will be a vibrant place.
, and it is incompatible with the other eleven states, and only the Lord can control it."
Huang Yueying sighed as she spoke: "Many people are waiting to see our jokes now. Cao Cao, Sun Quan, Liu Bei, Xun Yu, Guo Jia, Zhou Yu, Lu Su, Pang Tong and Zhuge Liang, they are all waiting for us to cause chaos. We will show it to them,
Not only show them, but also give them a blow.
In addition to these general domestic affairs of people's livelihood, we have to know our target, Lord. Where are we going to fight next?"
Liu Zhang smiled: "Didn't you say that? Jia Xu asked us to attack Liangzhou, so let's attack Liangzhou."
Huang Yueying said: "Well, during our internal affairs, we should prepare for this war. In addition to allocating grain and grass to Hanzhong, we also need to know how to attack Liangzhou. There is nothing else in Liangzhou, except that the cavalry is the best in the world.
If we are good at shooting and charging, if they are good at shooting, we should be better at shooting than them.
It is difficult for farming people to be good at shooting, so we have to find another way. I have made three types of hard crossbows with five uses in total. A seven-shot repeating crossbow can be operated by one person for strong soldiers, and two people for weak ones.
, can be used for siege water warfare and city defense.
A ten-shot bed crossbow must be operated by two to four people at the same time. It is used for water warfare and city defense. If it is to attack on the plains, it must be loaded on a crossbow cart.
This large-area long-range anti-personnel weapon is a fatal threat to the cavalry, but it has three shortcomings. First, it takes a long time to build and is expensive. The crossbow is complex and almost every component needs to be accurate, which will produce a lot of waste. And one shot of ten arrows,
Poor hit rate, waste of arrows.
Second, it is too bulky. In addition to water battles, the lord will take the army to Liangzhou to fight. Such a large bed crossbow is really difficult to carry.
The third is that it is difficult to repair. It originally took a long time to manufacture. In Liangzhou, where the weather is freezing, the parts of the crossbow are prone to slipping and deforming. These are all shortcomings. Moreover, the operation of the crossbow is complicated and requires tacit cooperation. These crossbow soldiers need special training.
The third type of crossbow is more expensive than these two types of crossbows and more difficult to repair and manufacture. This type of hard crossbow is single-shot. I increased its range to 500 steps through the mechanism structure. This is many car crossbows.
The effect cannot be achieved by a familiar crossbowman within 150 to 200 steps, which can accurately kill the enemy.
I have only made one crossbow of this kind in total, and have drawn a whole book of drawings, because many of the structures are very delicate, preventing explosions, fixing the arrow's shooting direction, and the durability of the firing parts, and there are too many dimensions to consider.
But the two biggest advantages of this kind of crossbow are that it is light in weight and can be used by a single soldier. Secondly, it has a long range. If an enemy general comes to the lord in one shot and screams at me in the future, lord, you know the consequences."
Huang Yueying smiled, and Liu Zhang picked up the book with a picture of a single-shot crossbow and flipped through it. He saw that each component was introduced in detail. Since they were all in traditional Chinese characters without Arabic numerals, it looked like one head and two big ones.
But even though he didn't understand it, Liu Zhang thought it looked awesome.
However, when Liu Zhang heard Huang Yueying talk about shooting the shouting enemy generals, he suddenly thought of a better use for this kind of crossbow, and that was sniping.
Crossbow soldiers have been trained to be able to kill accurately with a single shot at a long distance. When the two armies are fighting, it is perfect for firing hidden arrows. Moreover, such crossbows will be of great use in mountain warfare. Those Qiang
people……
It's just that although these things are powerful, they are all insignificant. The reason why Huang Yueying talks about money and food and people's livelihood first, and then the bows and crossbows, is because the former is the foundation. Now there is no money and food, and these expensive things are empty talk.
Huang Yueying continued: "If we are equipped with these hard crossbows and the Xiliang army is caught off guard, we will definitely be able to defeat them. By the time the world knows that we have such hard crossbows and starts to take precautions, we will already have Xiliang soldiers."
Now, who are you still afraid of?
In addition to bows and crossbows, the Xiliang cavalry is also good at charging. The lord should build two mature weapons in large quantities, hooks and sickles and spears. These are the nemesis of the cavalry. To deal with the Xiliang cavalry, we need at least 10,000 hooks and sickles.
Five thousand soldiers. These people are not in a head-on confrontation, but they pose a charge threat to the Xiliang Cavalry. As long as the threat is felt, they will be afraid of it and the charge will be greatly reduced.
In addition, Liangzhou Cavalry also has the largest short-range killing weapon. Xiliang people are good at riding and can throw javelins from horses. No armor or shield can stop them. This is why Xiliang Cavalry is always invincible every time they face off.
s reason.
I haven't thought of how to restrain it. The only way is to use chariots. As long as chariots are placed in front of the formation, the cavalry's javelins can basically be destroyed. However, chariots are an obsolete unit of cavalry. They have their shortcomings. Chariots are good at shooting when encountering them.
The cavalry is basically destined to die, and the mountains outside Hanzhong are all dangerous. Transportation is extremely difficult, so it is probably unrealistic for chariots to deal with cavalry.
But fortunately, we still have a few years to think about it, and I believe we can always come up with a good solution."
"Just because you think of this, I can't think of it for several years." Liu Zhang said leisurely: "Now listen to you. I have money and food, people's hearts and talents, and I even have ways to deal with Xiliang Xiaoqi.
Three or five years later, we will leave Hanzhong in the west. The land of Guanzhong will be easily obtained, and then we can use the cavalry from Xiliang, the navy from Jingzhou, and the infantry from Liangchuan to sweep across the world.
Now I have a feeling that "the world is at my fingertips". I always thought that one day I would be defeated and die. Since I met you, everything has become much easier. Am I being deceived by you? "
Liu Zhang looked at Huang Yueying warily and asked.
Huang Yueying smiled and said: "I have said before that if you are made of iron, you are not afraid of thousands of arrows piercing your heart. As long as you are strong, let alone Yuan Shao and Cao Cao, even if Qin Shihuang crawls out of the earth, you don't have to be afraid.
But what Yueying wants to emphasize is that expectations are always good. When I talked with Zhuge Liang, Xu Shu, Pang Tong and others, everyone seemed to be able to unify the world according to the plan no matter which force they joined, but in fact it was impossible to do it.
The so-called expectation only gives a possibility. There are too many variables in the middle. We must have a big strategy, but we cannot be obsessed. I always feel that doing every detail well and solving every problem encountered is the key.
Yes, as long as the details are done well, even if variables arise, we can deal with them randomly."
Liu Zhang was silent for a long time, thinking about Huang Yueying's words. Indeed, expectations are always good, and accidents are always unexpected. During the Three Kingdoms period, Zhuge Liang, Guo Jia, Xun Yu, Xi Zhicai, Tian Feng, and Lu Su all gave them to themselves.
The Lord proposed a plan to unify the world, but in the end no one could unify it.
Liu Zhang felt that he was a little lucky to have such a strategist who did not talk big. He could always remind himself not to be impatient. Moreover, Huang Yueying would not speak out impassionedly about every strategy, but would analyze it one by one, down to the details.
People's hearts, money, food, talents, and weapons will all be detailed down to the details, so that you can have an overall grasp.
"Actually, we can talk about these things after we get to Chengdu. Why come here in the middle of the night to talk about it now?"
Huang Yueying said: "My lord, do you think I don't want to sleep? My lord came back overnight and announced that tomorrow's enfeoffment of meritorious officials will be made. These strategies must be revealed now, because they are related to tomorrow's enfeoffment.
First, the Wuxi tribesmen who have made meritorious service in battle must all be heavily rewarded with gold, silver, grain, official titles, weapons and armor, to the extent that other Wuxi tribesmen, as well as the Nanzhong barbarians and the Western Qiang people can envy them. Only in this way can there be more
The foreigners fought for the lord. Although the foreigners did not have the farming army and military discipline, they all had their own strengths. If they were used well, they could be of great use.
And the most important thing is to give them land for farming. The families of these barbarians come out to farm and the harvest is better than hunting, which will naturally attract more barbarians to come out of the mountains.
Second, we must pay attention to the fairness of rewards for officials from poor families and officials from aristocratic families. We are not trying to eliminate aristocratic families, so we must set up a model. That is, the children of aristocratic families who are willing to be loyal to the lord will receive fair rewards. I think this model is Li Yanhuangquan
Come and be with me.
Huang Quan is the chief civil servant in Yizhou and cannot be granted another title. The lord is the Marquis of Shu, so he can be granted the title of Tinghou or Xianghou. Li Yan is granted the title of Marquis of Jingzhou and is engaged in the governance of Jingzhou. He cannot be granted the title of Marquis for the time being. Me, hehehe, I want to
He is the governor of Jingzhou and the governor of Jingzhou’s military and administrative affairs.”
Huang Yueying had a smile on her face. Liu Zhang looked at her in surprise. Huang Yueying stopped laughing and said, "Why, is it big?"
Liu Zhang said: "That's not what I meant. There is nothing wrong with being the governor of Jingzhou. Why don't you come back to Chengdu with me?"
Huang Yueying said: "I came to offer my advice most of the night because I can't go back to Chengdu with you. As I said, many people are waiting to see our jokes. Especially in Jingzhou. People's livelihood is in decline, bandits are rampant, and there is a serious shortage of officials.
.
The subordinates feel that nothing is important at the moment, and stabilizing Jingzhou is the most important. Jingzhou is the heart of the world, so it won’t become a burden to the lord after he finally defeated it, right?
These domestic strategies can be implemented by the Lord and Mr. Fa. Jingzhou must have a person with both civil and military skills in charge. If nothing unexpected happens, in three to five years, Jingzhou will become the granary of the Sichuan army, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous.
If my lord doesn't trust me, just let Mr. Fa take charge."
"Come on." Liu Zhang waved his hand and said: "I won't distrust you, and even if I don't trust you, Xiaozhi is not the best. Xiaozhi has excellent strategies, but he is a bit wanton. Only when it is very urgent, he can handle government affairs with peace of mind.
Otherwise, I don’t know where to go to live and drink, and I will have to stay in Jingzhou for at least a few years. The first two years must be very tiring, and he won’t make it.”
"Actually." Huang Yueying said with a smile: "When the twenty-one generals asked the lord to depose me, and then the lord sent the sword, I knew two things. The first is that the lord trusts me, and the second is that Mr. Fa is dedicated to
The master has a great cause and we can work together.
With these two points, Yue Ying dared to offer these domestic strategies, so government orders are executed by people. If there is no trust from the lord, or if Mr. Fa hates me, then the Sichuan army will just sit back and wait to perish."
"Desei, it seems I can't do it without you." Liu Zhang glanced at Huang Yueying sideways.
Huang Yueying raised her chin: "That's right, my mission is to fill the Sichuan Army with sunshine."
…
On the second day, Liu Zhang was promoted to the palace and awarded a reward. All the civil and military personnel of the Sichuan army were overjoyed. They had been fighting for nine months from the dispatch of troops in November last year to the withdrawal of troops in August. They asked Liu Biao to attack Xuchang, although Xuchang was not attacked.
, but Dao can be regarded as borrowed.
Every battle was vividly remembered by the generals, including the false attack on Wuling, the burning of Han Xuan at Yemapo, the destruction of Liu Pan at Luoying Valley, the alliance between the inside and outside of Guiyang, the far-reaching attack on Chaisang, the killing of Sun Yi and Tai Shici, the battle against Shanyue, and the defeat of fifty thousand Jiangdong.
The army pursued him, and Leng Bao's blood spilled on the hills.
Ten thousand soldiers stepped onto the river bank to confront Wei Yan's 100,000 troops. There were bloody battles in Baichuan, floods in Xiangyang, and two rivers bursting their banks. It was a difficult journey along the way. But now, finally, all the hardships are temporarily over.
After listening to Huang Yueying's words, Liu Zhang felt a little sleepy now, and finally felt confident. Unlike before, no matter whether he won or lost, he was always worried about the future, as if there was a gray and black fog ahead that he could not see through. It was a complete pessimism.
By.
And now, like a person who has slept in darkness for a long time, he opens the window that casts sunlight.
This reward is a new beginning, and the Sichuan Army will break out of its cocoon and be reborn.
Yang Zishang took a step forward and read aloud.
"Liu Zhang, Marquis of Shu, regarded as the uncle of the Han Dynasty emperor and also took charge of the three states of Jingzhou, Jiaozhou and Yizhou. He appointed Jiang Wan as the prefect of Nanjun, and he also took charge of Jingzhou's bookkeeper and was in charge of farming.
Yang Zishang was a guest in Jingzhou, and Li Yan was engaged in the administration of Jingzhou.
Huang Quan was engaged in the governance of Yizhou, and he was awarded the title of Marquis of Yuting. Zhang Song was given a special official position. He offered wine in the bank and was ranked as high as a thousand stones.
Huang Yueying was the governor of Jingzhou, in charge of the military and administration of Jingzhou, and had jurisdiction over Jingzhou's infantry, navy, and civil and military officials. Wang Fu, Wang Lei, Xu Jing, Liang Qiao, Gong Zhi, Dong He and other officials in Jingzhou and Yizhou each had their own titles."
"Liu Zhang, Marquis of Shu, regarded the great general of the Han Dynasty as a great general, and made Fazheng the general and the chief of the palace. Zhang Ren was made the general of the guard. He was also given the title of general. He was so powerful that he became a powerful general, with a rank as high as a hundred stones.
Yan Yan is the former general, Fan Lixiang is the rear general, and Huang Zhong is the left general.
Wu Ban was appointed Zhonglang General of the Conquest of the North, Deng Zhi was promoted to the Zhonglang General of the Conquest of the South, and Leng Bao was posthumously granted the title of Zhonglang General of the Conquest of the East. He was also granted the title of general and Huaihou, and his relatives enjoyed titles and honors.
Wei Wen was appointed Commander-in-Chief of the Navy, Gan Ning was appointed General Zhechong, and was granted the title of Marquis of Changting.
Twelve generals including Gao Pei, Yang Ren, Yang Huai, Deng Xian, Liu Quan, Huang Zu, Liu Min, and Chen Ying were each general, Hu Cheer, Xing Daorong, Chen Hong, Su Fei, and Yizhou Ma Zhong
, Jiangdong Ma Zhong, Qin Ci, Li Hui and other thirty-one generals are each serving as captains."
"Liu Zhang, Marquis of Shu, took over the Three Prefectures as a great general of the Han Dynasty. He made Samoko the General of Wuxi, with a rank equal to a thousand stones. He made Ye Wutie the King of Wuxi. He also made Han Yanghou and granted the Youxi tribe a thousand pieces of brocade.
, three hundred catties of silver, fifty catties of gold, and all other tribes that sent troops were rewarded.
Each Wuxi soldier who follows the battle is awarded the title of Wuxi Soldier. In addition to military pay, he enjoys a monthly salary of one hundred. Each soldier is given a piece of brocade and ten stones of grain. He is given one acre of fertile land in Fuling, which can be cultivated for ten acres. For outstanding achievements,
If you wish, you will be given three to five acres of fertile land, and you can cultivate fifty acres of mountainous land.
For Youxi and the various tribes that sent troops, they were rewarded with 500 to 3,000 acres of miscellaneous fields. They were exempted from taxes for three years. Those who cultivated more mountains and fields were exempted from taxes for five years. All barbarians who were willing to work in farming were assigned special personnel to guide farming. In the first year, the government issued food supplies.
.”
The generals and soldiers of the Wuxi barbarian army in the audience were in an uproar. They didn't understand Chinese and listened to what their companions said. They whispered to each other and looked surprised. The weight of Liu Zhang's reward was far beyond their imagination.
Although many barbarians say that the Han people are cowardly, in fact they also envy the Han people's prosperous life. They don't have to fight with wild beasts with their lives every day, and in the end they can only make ends meet. When there is a famine or disease, the whole family will scream. If a tribe
When there is a famine, if you can rob the Han people, rob them. If you can't rob them, the whole tribe will be wiped out.
Although many barbarians say that the Han people are treacherous and so on, in fact they envy the culture of the Han people. This is not a need for life. Instead, the Han people always use culture to despise them. This contempt angers them, but it also makes many barbarians want to be like the Han people.
status and be recognized. Become a "cultured" barbarian.
This is the same as many people’s pursuit of identity in modern times.
Now Liu Zhang not only rewarded them with gold, silver and food far beyond their imagination, but also made them feel that the battle was worthwhile. Although many people died, they usually live life-threatening, and it doesn't matter whether they die or not.
What's more, because the barbarians were only strong and good at shooting alone, they basically never charged head-on. They all fought with the wind and the casualties were very small.
They were also given fertile land and official titles (Jiashi, which were titles specially given to them). The former allowed them to get rid of the days of fighting with the sky, and the latter gave them status.
With a Han title, how can you show off to the tribe? Just like a college student who came out of the countryside in the 1980s, he would definitely be envious of those who did not participate in the war.
Liu Zhang looked at the reaction of the barbarians in the audience with satisfaction. Attracting barbarians to farming is a long-term strategy and cannot be achieved overnight. But now that they have tasted the benefits of gold, silver, rice and status, they will slowly get tired of the barbarian life, especially
When they were desperate, they had another way of survival besides robbery.
Moreover, if you don’t spend gold and silver, is it still called gold and silver? As long as you spend it, you will integrate into the life of the Han people. Liu Zhang didn’t believe that these barbarians took the money and didn’t spend it, but buried it. If so, he would have nothing to say.
It can be said.
The monthly salary of one hundred, although not much, is very useful for controlling these barbarians. First, it is to know the number of barbarian warriors. Second, once there is a conflict with the barbarians, these barbarians are afraid of losing their salary.
Rice, even if they don't like to eat rice, they are short of food and can't just leave the white rice without eating it. When they can't catch prey, they can eat rice. The first thing that makes other barbarians envy them is that they can't catch prey.
You can eat rice when the time comes, and the second thing is to let them adapt to the taste of rice.
As for the soldiers, if they don't live among the Han people, they can only show off in the cave. Can they show off for a lifetime? What's more, Huang Yueying has prepared a whole set of titles for these barbarians. They will be promoted based on their military exploits. They are so competitive that they don't want to
Climb up? Otherwise, if you show off as a soldier this time, next time someone comes back to show off as a general, he will still be a soldier, wouldn't he be disgraced?
"Thank you, Lord. We will definitely serve you to the death."
"Thank you so much, Lord." All the civil, military and barbarian troops paid homage, and the sound shook the hall.
"Everyone, get up. The whole army will return to Chengdu in three days. Everyone go down and prepare."
After Yang Zishang finished reading out the reward, Liu Zhang stood up. He had not slept all day and night. He was really sleepy. He walked behind him in a heavy mood, muttering: "I have the least money and the least food every month.
My lord is too partial."
Hu Che'er said from the side: "You are already a general, and you are on the same level as my lord. I am still a captain."
"Go away." He yelled loudly, and now he got angry when he heard the word "general". At first, there was something wrong with him. He wanted to be a powerful general, but he only cared about food. Now he is better and has become the poorest in the Sichuan army.
The general.
If you are ignorant, you will definitely suffer.
Liu Zhang walked to the backyard and saw Cai Ming upstairs leaning on the balcony railing of the attic, so he walked up. Cai Ming saw Liu Zhang coming and hurriedly entered the room to tidy up the bed and helped Liu Zhang take off his clothes.
Liu Zhang fell asleep, and when he woke up, he saw Cai Ming dressing up in front of the mirror in front of the dressing table, combing her hair and stroking her eyebrows, looking very serious.
Cai Ming saw Liu Zhang looking at her in the mirror. She immediately stopped dressing, walked over and bowed to Liu Zhang and said, "Master, do you want to serve and change?"
Liu Zhang pulled Cai Ming over, kissed her thin red lips that she had just bitten, smiled and said to Cai Ming, "Come back to Chengdu with me."
Cai Ming fell into Liu Zhang's arms, and the fragrance of a woman's body spread into the air. She put her jade hand on Liu Zhang's chest and felt Liu Zhang's heat through her pajamas.
Cai Ming leaned closer to him, enjoyed it for a while, and said quietly: "My lord already has a wife, Miss Huang Yue, a concubine, Miss Xiao, and Cao Cao's daughter who has not married yet. But I don't have any status, Cai Ming."
If you don’t want to embarrass your lord, Cai Ming should stay in Xiangyang.”
"What's so difficult about this? When we get to Chengdu, I'll accept you." Liu Zhang said casually.
Cai Ming raised his head and looked at Liu Zhang, who had a serious look on his face, "Master, aren't you afraid of gossips? After all, I used to be Liu Biao's wife."
"What's the point? You already said you were idle, and our current relationship is probably known to the entire Jingzhou. I'm not afraid of anything. As long as you are willing, I will take you back to Chengdu and take you as my concubine."
Cai Ming placed it on Liu Zhang's chest, and the hand he was caressing trembled for a moment, then returned to normal. His palm slowly rubbed, and his body leaned closer. The two towering soft masses on his chest were squeezed tightly through Liu Zhang's pajamas.
Cai Ming buried his head in Liu Zhang's arms, was silent for a long time, and said softly: "Let's forget it, Cai Ming doesn't want to ruin the reputation of the lord. If the lord comes to Jingzhou, Cai Ming will be willing to serve the lord as long as the lord doesn't dislike it.
"
"Are you really afraid of ruining my reputation?"
"ah?"
Cai Ming raised his head and looked at Liu Zhang, who smiled with relief: "Forget it. It doesn't matter if you don't want to go to Chengdu, this is your hometown. With your relatives, it's normal that you don't want to leave. Okay, you can get some sleep first.
, I'm going to handle some official business."
Liu Zhang got dressed himself, kissed Cai Ming on the forehead, and left the attic.
Cai Ming watched Liu Zhang walk out of the room, and then stared at the empty door in a daze. The sound from the stairs seemed to make his heart beat.
He forced himself to choose again.
I had already expected it and had already thought about how to answer. Everything was normal, but why did my heart feel empty after I said the answer I had prepared for a long time, as if it was not the answer I was willing to say.
The area where his forehead had been kissed grew colder little by little. Cai Ming pulled the quilt Liu Zhang had slept on and covered his whole body.
…………
Liu Zhang walked down the stairs and sighed. He gave Cai Ming another chance, but it seemed that he didn't need it at all. This woman had never changed. She only had her family in her heart. Because the Cai family was here, she wanted to stay here.
.
Such a woman will always be a woman from the Cai family, not a woman from the Liu family.
Huang Yueying has explained to herself some details of stabilizing Jingzhou. Bandits, refugees, and aristocratic families are all key factors. Since Cai Ming told herself about the ten years of suffering, Liu Zhang has a lot of sympathy for her, but if Cai Ming is still heartbroken,
Even if all the mechanisms are exhausted, even the gods can't save her.
In the outskirts, under an umbrella-covered pine tree on the top of the mountain, Cui Zhouping was cooking tea and watching the scenery. The mountain breeze was passing by, the green mountains were green, the green water was enchanting, and the sunset was infinite. It was so pleasant.
Huang Yueying left her soldiers at the foot of the mountain and went up the mountain alone.
"Brother Cui." Huang Yueying called from behind.
"Yueying, you're here." Cui Zhouping didn't look back, he just took out an extra cup from the cloth bag.
Huang Yueying sat across from Cui Zhouping, took a sip of tea from Cui Zhouping, "Brother Cui seems to know that I am coming, and also knows the purpose of my coming. So, is Brother Cui willing to help Yueying?"
Cui Zhouping smiled, looked at the scenery in the distance and said: "The past few months have been really unpredictable. With the arrival of Liu Zhang, all the good friends in the past went their separate ways. Xu Yuanzhi died, Kong Ming and Pang Shiyuan defected to Liu Bei. The most unexpected thing...
It's Yueying who actually left the mountain and took refuge with Liu Zhang, leaving me, Cui Zhouping, alone."
Cui Zhouping sighed and drank tea sip after sip. After a long time, he said: "Yueying, you and Kong Ming are now on two sides. Have you ever thought about how you will be hostile in the future?"
Yueying smiled.
Cui Zhouping also laughed and laughed at himself: "Why am I so stupid? You don't really like Kong Ming at all. Moreover, you are not interested in this topic. I know you are here to ask me to join Liu Zhang. I will not agree. I
I remember that I had already refused once on the bow of the ship, and I was tired of it. The princes were killing each other, fighting for power, and it was none of my business."
Cui Zhouping said and smiled: "As a rural savage, I am still interested in several of my good friends, Kong Ming, Shi Yuan, and you. Kong Ming really likes you. From now on, you will fight against the enemy on the battlefield.
I really don't know what the scene is, I hope I can see that day.
And Shi Yuan, that eccentric guy failed to stay in the Sichuan Army in the end. I don’t know whether he will succeed in his career or die in failure. Haha, these are my only hopes for survival."
"If Brother Cui thinks that a lord who could have conquered the world by relying on his status as the uncle of the Han Dynasty, with the help of popular popularity and the land of Sichuan and Sichuan, but instead kills the family and becomes the enemy of the world in order to save the Han Dynasty, is he
Fighting for power and profit, Na Yueying's trip was in vain."
Cui Zhouping looked at the yellow tea in the cup, lowered his head and said to Huang Yueying: "What does Yueying want to say?"
"I want to ask Brother Cui to come out and help me, not to seek refuge with the lord, but to let Brother Cui find his old passion. Brother Cui should not stay in the countryside all his life. You once resisted your father and led troops to attack Dong Zhuo.
This is enough to prove that Brother Cui also has disdain for the family and has a heart to save the Han Dynasty.
If there was no lord and no Prince of Shu Liu Zhang, let alone Brother Cui, I, Huang Yueying, would never be an official in this life. As Brother Cui said, fighting for hegemony among princes is really a subordinate act.
But since we all hate the clan, why don't we unite? I don't believe it has only been ten years, and Brother Cui has just passed his forties. All ambitions have disappeared. We are not taking refuge with Liu Zhang, we are a group of like-minded people. Including Liu Zhang
Inside, we gather together and build a strong man again."
"You are really good at inciting people. I think you are more powerful than Liu Zhang's Fan Lixiang."
"That's right." Huang Yueying saw a smile on Cui Zhouping's face, and also smiled: "Brother Cui, I won't make it difficult for you. Although you are versatile in both civil and military affairs, you don't want to lead troops to fight. That's okay. I
I have a good position for you, which ensures that you can make tea and realize your ideals. You don’t need to lead soldiers, but you will have greater merit than leading soldiers."
"Oh, so amazing? What position?" Cui Zhouping asked while drinking tea.
"Master." Huang Yueying spit out two words.
"Pfft." Cui Zhouping spat out a sip of tea. He talked to Huang Yueying very easily. He couldn't control his emotions for a moment. Cui Zhouping coughed twice: "Master? What credit does a teacher have? And those who can afford to go to school are all
He is a descendant of the family."
Huang Yueying waved her hands mysteriously and told Cui Zhouping the method of cultivating talents that Liu Zhang had mentioned. Cui Zhouping immediately stopped drinking tea and was stunned. After a while, he said: "Yueying, have you ever thought about this?"
Once the plan is implemented, although it will alleviate the talent crisis, it will cause greater panic among the world, and you are digging into their foundation."
"I just want to uproot them." Huang Yueying pinched her fingers and said.
"What about the Huang family? They will definitely treat you... well, pretend I didn't say it." Cui Zhouping stopped talking, and after a while, he said calmly: "Why are you looking for me?"
"There are many reasons. For example, if you are famous, for example, you are from a noble family. Although poor families hate the control of officialdom by noble families, they still feel that people from noble families are noble in their hearts. If you come to teach, they will be more convinced. If you find a poor family,
I'm afraid no one will listen.
But these are not the most important. The two most important ones are: First, Brother Cui is a versatile man in both civil and military affairs. He once served as an official. He comes from a family of public ministers and has unique insights into being an official. However, other versatile talents in both civil and military affairs are even greater than Brother Cui.
Even though they all want to gain power and climb up the ladder, who wants to be a master?
Second, Brother Cui has no interest in official career and is as calm as water. In the short term, those short-sighted people cannot see the benefits of teaching officials, but after a long time, they will find out what a tempting position this is.
In the entire Jingzhou, and even in the entire lord's territory, most of the officials are under his own name, how powerful is that? If it is used by an ambitious person, it will definitely lead to disaster, and this must be the case with Brother Cui."
ps: #tyrantLiu Zhang#: Cao Cao’s family invited ministers, and during the banquet, two concubines quarreled over their favor. The two insisted on fighting to the death, shouting that the prime minister should make the decision for him. Cao Cao was so angry that he had a headache and shouted loudly
He scolded: "You two will die together!" There was a sudden silence all around. Suddenly, a military general rushed out of his seat and knelt on the ground and shouted: "Hahaha, I will thank the Prime Minister for your reward. Hahahaha."
Thanks to injured noodles for the reward, please call me Empire 300 reward and wlqrichard 89,200 reward from now on.
