- Chapter 223 Want to default on the debt
That sigh represents a kind of euphemistic surrender.
Liu Feng smiled.
On the same day, Liu Feng arranged for someone to send Jiang Wan back to Jingzhou, and also sent back the news of the great victory in Wu County.
Liu Feng needed to use news of a victory to establish his prestige in Jingzhou and appease the people who had just decided.
On the second day after conquering Wu County, Liu Feng's 20,000-strong army marched against Jiangxi and successfully left the Three Gorges area.
After hearing the news of the fall of Wu County, from the west of Wu County, Baidi, Quren and other Badong counties surrendered. Liu Feng's army was able to reach Yangqu within a few days without losing any blood.
The guard here, Yang Yi, with a thousand soldiers and horses, blocked the five thousand Huang Zhong troops who came from the Yishui Trail. When he was about to show his skills again, the news of the defeat in Wu County defeated all his dreams.
The small county of Yangqu was far less solid than Wu County. Yang Yi was self-aware and knew that a thousand soldiers and horses could not withstand Liu Feng's tens of thousands of troops. Therefore, Yang Yi abandoned Yangqu that day and rushed to Shuzhong. Escape.
Attacking Yangqu, the entire Badong County was in his hands. The gate of Shuzhong was already open to him. After Liu Feng met with Huang Zhong's troops, he continued to advance toward Bajun along the Yangtze River.
The tens of thousands of troops were at their peak, and they were invincible along the way. The defenders loyal to Liu Bei were defeated. The county officials who were forced to surrender to Liu Bei, in the face of the general situation, turned to Liu Feng one after another.
On the seventh day after conquering Wu County, Liu Feng's army arrived at the foot of Jiangzhou City, the seat of Bajun.
Jingzhou and Yizhou are separated by endless mountains and ridges, with the Yangtze River running through them from west to east. The Yangtze River waterway and the mountain roads on both sides are the main channels connecting the two states.
If Yidaocheng is the exit from the Jingzhou side of this passage, then Jiangzhou (today's Chongqing) is the exit from the Yizhou side of this passage.
Crossing Jiangzhou is equivalent to walking out of the high mountains and smoothly entering the open Chengdu plain.
Continuing up the river to the west, passing through Jiangyang County and Jianwei County in the plains, you can reach the south of Chengdu.
??Going northwest along the Fushui River, passing through Dongguanghan County, you can enter Zilu County and reach Fucheng.
Or take the Western Han River and enter Brazil County, then you can directly take Brazil County to govern Langzhong.
Jiangzhou is connected in all directions and can be said to be the most important strategic location east of Chengdu.
Previously, Liu Zhang ordered Yan Yan, the governor of Bajun, to lead an army of 7,000 to defend Jiangzhou. He was violently attacked by the second batch of Jingzhou troops led by Zhuge Liang. It was originally in danger.
The sudden change of Liu Feng's surprise attack on Jingzhou completely disrupted Zhuge Liang's deployment, forcing him to divide his troops to capture Brazil, Dongguanghan and other counties as soon as possible, and send troops back to defend Jianping, Badong and other counties.
With Zhuge Liang dividing his troops like this, the pressure on Yan Yan suddenly dropped sharply. Later, Liu Zhang sent an additional 3,000 reinforcements to Yan Yan, telling him that Liu Feng had sent troops, and ordered him to hold on to Jiangzhou.
Under this encouragement, Yan Yan encouraged the soldiers of the Jiangzhou Army to resist Liu Bei's attack for several months. Today, Liu Feng's reinforcements finally arrived.
The defeat in Wu County was too sudden, with almost no warning. Along the hundreds of miles from Wu County to Jiangzhou, almost every county along the way surrendered without a fight. Under this circumstance, Liu Bei had to withdraw from the siege of Jiangzhou and quickly withdraw more than 10,000 troops northward.
When Liu Feng's army arrived in Jiangzhou, it was the second day after Liu Bei's army withdrew.
At this point in the battle, the situation was much more favorable to Liu Feng, but he did not take advantage of the victory to attack Liu Bei's army in the north. Instead, he stationed troops in the east of Jiangzhou City to rest and recuperate his soldiers.
When Yan Yan heard that Liu Feng had arrived, he sent people out of the city that day to give him a lot of tributes to the soldiers as condolences. Liu Feng accepted the gifts, and then sent an envoy into the city to see Yan Yan with Liu Zhang's handwritten letter on how to cut off the city. Yan came to the camp to see him.
According to the previous agreement reached between the two parties, Liu Zhang ceded Badong, Fuling, and Bajun as a reward for Liu Feng's sending troops.
Now that Liu Feng has fulfilled his promise to send troops, according to the agreement, theoretically, Yan Yan, the governor of Bajun, the Jiangzhou army under his command, as well as the officials and residents of the county, have become Liu Feng's subordinates and accept Liu Feng's full authority. command.
Bajun is so important. Liu Feng will naturally not use troops easily until he has confirmed that he has complete control over it.
Yan Yan naturally knew about the agreement between Er Liu, but knowing it did not mean that he was willing to accept it.
When Liu Zhang invited Liu Bei to come to Shu, Yan Yan insisted on opposing it. Now Liu Zhang invites Liu Feng to come to Shu. Although it is said to be an expedient measure out of desperation, in Yan Yan's view, these two Liu Feng people from Jingzhou None of them are good lords.
In Yan Yan's view, Liu Bei is a bad wolf, and Liu Feng is a tiger.
Liu Feng could use that method to seizeJingzhou, with its great ambitions, could not be tempted by Yizhou, a piece of soft meat that everyone wants to take a bite of.
"If Ba County is handed over to Liu Feng, if he turns against him in the future and Chengdu is in danger of being lost, how can he withstand his troops?"
Thinking about all these things, Yan Yan decided to refuse to obey.
Of course, Yan Yan did not dare to openly resist Liu Feng's orders at this time. While he was perfunctory with Liu Feng on the grounds of physical inconvenience, he quickly sent people to Chengdu to meet with Liu Zhang and proposed to modify the original agreement and no longer cede Bajun. With Liu Feng.
??¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡
Chengdu, Prefecture Mufu.
It is called Zhoumufu, but its splendor is no less than that of the imperial palace.
No one knows how many pavilions are hidden in this huge mansion, and there are many beautiful corridors of houses that can¡¯t be seen to the end or to the side.
The courtyard where the meeting hall is located is filled with golden light as far as the eye can see.
The pillars and tiles of the surrounding buildings are all made of cast copper, with various patterns of wind, cloud, dragon and tiger painted on them with gold paint. Under the sunlight, they reflect the dazzling golden light.
This Prefecture Mufu was built with great effort by Liu Zhang's father, Liu Yan, and was originally intended to be his imperial palace after he became emperor.
Who would have thought that a fire from heaven burned more than a thousand emperor's chariot tents that he had painstakingly built. Liu Yan became seriously ill in anger, and soon gave up and left this magnificent mansion to his son Liu Zhang.
Liu Zhang was not comfortable living in the splendid palace.
Since he succeeded to the throne, Zhang Lu of Hanzhong has repeatedly sent troops to invade, and Pang Xi of Brazil County has blatantly ruled the country and refused to obey orders. The enemies inside and outside have bullied him, an honest man.
With great difficulty, he invited Liu Bei, who was famous for his benevolence and righteousness, and wanted him to support his appearance, but in the end, he led the wolf into the house.
Emergency reports came one after another from Luocheng, and countless reinforcements were sent, but Luocheng was like a bottomless pit. No matter how many soldiers and horses he sent, they were all eaten up by Liu Bei's bloody mouth. .
At present, there are less than 20,000 soldiers and horses left in Chengdu, and Liu Zhang does not know how long this remaining family can support him, and he spends his days in sorrow.
But today, Liu Zhang can finally breathe a sigh of relief.
News came from Bajun that Liu Zhang was looking forward to the stars and the moon, and the man he had longed for day and night had finally arrived.
As soon as he got the good news, Liu Zhang summoned his civil and military staff to publicize the "good news". At the same time, he sent people to Luocheng on flying horses, trying to use this good news to boost the front line, which was almost in despair. Soldiers.
Who knows, not long after enjoying the good news, an urgent letter from Yan Yan ruined Liu's mood that he had just cheered up.
A few days after the sandalwood case, Liu Fengku sat at the table and looked at the letter in his hand with a grimace.
Over the past year, I have been tortured by Liu Bei until my energy was haggard, and my originally rich face was so thin that even my cheekbones were faintly visible.
"Everyone, Yan Xibo said in his letter that Liu Feng is a man of tigers and wolves, so we must be careful. He suggested that I modify the previous agreement and not cede Ba County to Liu Feng. What do you think?"
Liu Zhang showed Yan Yan¡¯s letter to everyone and asked everyone¡¯s opinions anxiously.
At this time, Huang Quan was the first to stand up, with an unusually solemn look on his face. He cupped his hands and said, "My lord, this proposal is absolutely unacceptable."
"No?"
Liu Zhang¡¯s sparse eyebrows were slightly condensed, and his expression seemed a bit displeased, ¡°Why not?¡±
Huang Quan said loudly: "At the beginning, my lord made a request and promised to cede the three counties in eastern Sichuan as a reward for asking Liu Zhennan to send troops to Shu to rescue him. Now Liu Zhennan has fulfilled his promise as promised. If my lord breaks the old covenant at this time, , have you become a treacherous person?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the man at the bottom of the stairs said coldly: "When my father invited Liu Bei to come to Shu, he kept his promise and provided money and food, as well as more soldiers. However, Liu Bei repaid his kindness with his own hatred. Having learned from the past experience, how could your father? To be able to make the same mistakes again.¡±
Huang Quan went to look for fame and saw that the person speaking was none other than Liu Zhang's second son Liu Chan.
When Liu Bei was mentioned, Liu Zhang couldn't help shaking his head and sighing, his face full of hatred.
"What Ah Chan said is not unreasonable. As an adopted son, Liu Feng actually turned against Liu Bei, killed his favorite general, and took away his inheritance. This shows that this person has a ruthless mind and we have to guard against him."
Liu Zhang agreed with the second son's words, or perhaps he already had the intention of repaying his debt, but he just needed to express it through the words of others.
Huang Quan on the other side was anxious and said hurriedly: "Of course what the second master said is reasonable, but the current situation is that the siege of Luocheng has not been solved, and we still need Liu Zhennan's help. If the lord tears up the agreement?, what should you do if you piss off Liu Zhennan? "
The rhetorical question made Liu Zhang's expression change slightly.
"Then if Liu Zhennan gets angry and withdraws his troops, that's all. If he uses this as an excuse to send troops to attack our state, with his vigorous momentum, he will probably be more difficult to deal with than Liu Bei. By then, my lord will be attacked on both sides. It will be in danger."
"this¡¡"
Liu Zhang was a little frightened by Huang Quan's hypothesis and panicked for a moment.
Liu Chan sneered and said: "Gong Heng, don't be alarmist. Who said that father is going to tear up the agreement? Father just wants to revise it. Isn't it just a Bajun? At worst, we can change it to a huge amount of money and food as a condition of replacement. , this is not considered a breach of contract, so what excuse can Liu Feng have to target us."
Hearing these words, Liu Zhang immediately beamed and said yes again and again.
Huang Quan, who was at the bottom of the steps, knew that Liu Zhang had already made up his mind and his persuasion was ineffective, so he could only shake his head and sigh inwardly. .
