    Chapter 129 "Liu Jia's showdown with Liu Zhang"

    I don¡¯t know whether the boatmen heard clearly that Liu Bei was a royal family member, or the boatmen heard Liu Bei saying that he would be rewarded with a thousand catties of gold.  Piao Tian Literature Network () Anyway, what pleased Liu Bei and others was that the sailboat not only did not continue to escape towards the middle of the river, but instead moved closer to the shore.  Even after a boatman was shot by random arrows and fell into the water, they were still waiting for Liu Bei to get on the boat.  []

    The panicked Liu Bei shouted to the boatmen as soon as he got on the boat: "Go! Go!"

    The sailboat finally sailed away from the river bank amid the arrows and headed towards the other side and downstream of the river.  The sailboat went faster and faster, getting further and further away from the shore. Because it was September and the end of the autumn flood, the river was wide and the water was fast. The pursuers did not dare to go down the river to catch up. They just chased along the river embankment, shouting and threatening.  After chasing for more than ten miles and seeing that it was impossible to catch up, they withdrew their troops and returned to Xiangyang.

    Seeing the pursuers leaving, Zhang Fei, who was holding on, suddenly fell back and fainted.  The four wounded soldiers arranged for the boatmen to bandage Zhang Fei, but they fell asleep in the cabin due to exhaustion and pain.  Only Liu Bei and Yi Jie, who was helpless, were still breathing heavily. Liu Bei and I looked at each other, but neither of them thought that danger was approaching them.

    In fact, these extremely courageous people are the work of the Jiangdong faction here. Although Sun Quan and Liu Bei are in alliance, the two sides have never stopped exploring each other's intelligence for a day.  Today it happened to be a coincidence that several of them who were investigating the situation around Xiangyang had already learned about the relevant situation. Their work had already been replaced by another person, and they had to go back to the commander to report the news and then take over. They are currently on shore or deep in the interior.  Exploring the details of Guan Yu's rescue situation.

    I never expected that Liu Bei would be chased here.  At first, they thought it was better to do less than to do more, so they just stayed away like other ships.  But they saw that there were only a few people in Liu Bei's group, and except for Liu Bei and another civil servant, everyone else was seriously injured, so they quickly changed their mind and picked up Liu Bei and his group.

    They discussed in private that they would kidnap him and take him to Jiangdong!

    The time to think about it is quite long, but the actual implementation is very short.  A man pretended to bring cold water to Liu Bei to quench his thirst. When he got close, he suddenly pulled out the short knife hidden in his sleeve.  against Liu Bei's neck.  Liu Bei didn't understand what happened at first, but when he knew someone was going to harm him.  Other boatmen were already swarming on board.

    But Yiji was easier to deal with. A boatman punched him and he fainted.

    After taking care of the two sober people, the others hardly had to deal with this word: Although Zhang Fei's snoring was loud, it couldn't scare anyone, it just helped the boatman cover up their footsteps.  After Zhang Fei was tied up, the other wounded soldiers were killed one by one by the boatmen.  The sleeping soldier saw the King of Hell without any pain.

    These boatmen - Koto Shosaku - were clever and cautious people. They tied the three people up, stuffed rags into their mouths and put them into cloth bags. When there were no boats nearby, they rowed the sailboat into the mountains and plains along the river.  In the reed swamp, put down the sail and pile a pile of dry reeds, and then light a fire. Soon, a sailboat will only have a broken bottom that cannot be burned. Use some weeds or reeds that are within reach to burn it.  It was covered tightly.

    Finish all this.  They went ashore and rented horses. It was not until they passed Liu Bei's original sphere of influence that they rented a boat again and rushed to Jianye.

    So Guan Yu¡¯s thousands of soldiers spent many days without finding any trace. The boat Liu Bei was on seemed to have evaporated and disappeared.

    Of course, Sun Quan was overjoyed to get Liu Bei's land. Zhou Yu's depression of returning without success in Jiaozhou was instantly wiped away.  He rewarded those meritorious people heavily.  At the same time, while strictly blocking the news from the outside world, he personally hosted a banquet for Liu Bei.  Liu Bei, who was held in the palm of others, naturally gave in not long after, although he cursed a few times at first.  But Sun Quan was neither angry nor angry, and Liu Bei had no determination to commit suicide, so Liu Bei finally obeyed Sun Quan's arrangement half-heartedly and agreed to persuade Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Zhuge Liang and others to work for Sun Quan.

    This is what happened.

    When Liu Jia in Chengdu heard that Liu Bei was captured and finally took refuge with Sun Quan, he just lamented, "God is really playing tricks on people." There was no way to stop it.

    After hearing the news, Cao Cao also sighed: "The blue-eyed kid is going crazy now." However, although Cao Cao could not prevent this from happening, he strengthened the defense of the river front line afterwards.

    After Pang Tong¡¯s army had completed resting and reorganizing Jiangxia County, Liu Jia ordered Li Yan to be the prefect of Jiangxia.  He led 10,000 soldiers to guard the city; ordered Pang Tong, Fazheng, Gan Ning, Wei Yan, Yan Yan, and Wu Tugu to lead the remaining 36,000 soldiers to Xiangyang City.  Plan to destroy Zhang Lu's troops with Xu Shu.

    It was already the tenth year of Jian'anIt¡¯s April six years.

    After several months of careful treatment by doctors, the weak Liu Zhang could barely move.

    Seeing that Liu Zhang's complexion was getting better.  Some subordinates loyal to Liu Zhang began to persuade Liu Jia to delegate power and persuade Liu Zhang to take charge.

    This matter made Liu Jia extremely annoyed, and Liu Zhang, who had long since given up his heart, seemed to be eager to give it a try. As long as he was in good spirits, he would call people in to talk to him. The people calling were also his old subordinates, and they were very fond of the people Liu Jia brought to Chengdu.  Pay less attention.

    Liu Jia has been thinking about this issue for several months. Liu Jia, who returned from modern times to the past, has no feelings for Liu Zhang at all, and he does not think that a father must have more power than his son or that he must listen to his father.

    Although he was not prepared to give up the power in his hands, he believed that it would be best for Liu Zhang to take the initiative to tell outsiders that he was no longer willing to hold power.  So he decided to find a time to have a good talk with the old man.

    On this day, after hearing from the doctor that Liu Zhang was in better condition, Liu Jia put down all the work in his hands, went to visit and asked his guards to block other people from entering.

    "Father, how are you feeling today?" After Liu Jia called him father several times, he got used to it, so now he doesn't feel awkward calling him father.

    "You're here? My father is much better now!" Although Liu Zhang, who has been in politics for a long time, is weak and incompetent, he is not bad at observing faces.  When he saw Liu Jia coming suddenly today, he naturally knew that Liu Jia had something important to discuss with them today. His heart sank and his face changed a little, but he still pretended to smile and said, "Jia'er, why is there a blank sky today?"  Come to see me as a father?"

    Liu Jia had thought up a lot of words before coming here.  But after meeting this old man who was once majestic and now weak, I didn't know what to say.  He could only follow Liu Zhang's words and said: "Anyway, we do these things every day, and we will never forget them in our lifetime. With Zi Che inside, Shi Yuan, Yuan Zhi and others outside, it doesn't matter if I don't deal with it sometimes. I heard the doctor said that my father's condition today  It¡¯s a lot better, so let¡¯s take a look. How much can you eat in one meal now?¡±

    Liu Zhang did not answer Liu Jia's words, but instead asked: "How many troops did Jia'er send to Xiangyang? How many troops did that beast Zhang Lu have?"

    When Liu Jia heard that Liu Zhang took the initiative to bring up the war, he felt happy: You old man doesn't understand this.  Today I will tell you to give up when you are faced with difficulties.  So he said: "Shi Yuan brought 36,000 soldiers from Jiangxia County. Yuan Zhi had more than 30,000 soldiers in Hanzhong, and the two armies combined were nearly 60,000. Zhang Lu originally had nearly 100,000 troops, but after  We lost some when we captured Xiangyang, and now there are about 90,000 of them. I plan to use these 60,000 to wipe them all out."

    Liu Zhang showed no surprise and asked calmly: "Sixty thousand people are fighting against ninety thousand, and they have a city to use. Can they survive?".

    "Since his debut, how often has he not defeated more with less? Although Zhang Lu said he had 90,000 troops, in fact he only had more than 20,000 elite soldiers but less than 30,000. The rest were just religious soldiers without much combat effectiveness. Don't be afraid.  !" Liu Jia said confidently.

    "After taking care of Zhang Lu, what are you going to do next?" Liu Zhang asked.

    "Of course it is to restore the economy. After this war, our three states have been severely damaged and can no longer withstand continuous wars." Liu Jia said.

    "Oh, haven't you always liked fighting? There are Ugo and Burmese kingdoms in the southwest that are just about to make a move. In the east, Sun Quan's confidence doubled after he won Liu Bei, and in the north, Cao Cao is probably not idle either. Can you bear it?"  Although Liu Zhang seemed surprised by Liu Jia's performance, his expression remained calm as usual.

    "Yes, why don't you want to kill them all? But if the soldiers have no food to eat and no clothes to wear, how can they fight? Moreover, they have to fight Sun Quan and Cao Cao. It is impossible without a stable and prosperous internal environment.  Maybe he will win the final victory." Liu Jia glanced at Liu Zhang and said meaningfully.

    "Don't you always win more with less?"  Liu Zhang chuckled and continued to ask, "How are you going to restore the economy? Or are you going to adopt the 'land to the tiller' and 'everyone is equal in the world' approach that you used when you were in Zoke?"

    "'Land to the tiller'. 'Everyone is equal in the world' is my ultimate goal, but I won't force the people below to implement it now. After the war, people's thoughts are stable. I don't want to create a turbulent society. Anyway, now  There are many idle fields, and there are many places suitable for reclamation. I plan to allocate the ownerless fields or the fields of the driven enemies to the retired soldiers and some landless vagrants, and at the same time, let the troops who have no battles to fight  A piece of land will be reclaimed, and the rest will be discussed later when society stabilizes. In addition to land, Er is planning to comprehensively promote the improved seeds of Zongke County in the three states, and adopt subsidies to allow people to obtain seeds at a small cost. In addition, Er  We should also encourage ordinary people to grow mulberry and hemp, and encourage wealthy people to set up businesses, encourage them to transport products from here to there, and sell things from there to here.¡­Anyway, I can't explain these things right now. One day I will ask Ziche to explain them to his father.  He is best at economics.  "Liu Jia smiled sheepishly, "These ideas were all his.  "

    "The Ziche you are talking about is Liu Ba, right? Do you just listen to him?" Liu Zhang asked.

    "What he said is correct, of course you listen to him." Liu Jia said without thinking.

    Suddenly Liu Zhang laughed, not loudly, but he looked happy.  He smiled and said, "Okay! Jia'er has grown up. My father always thought that Jia'er grew up from commanding wars. She only knows how to command others, likes to be arbitrary and does not listen to other people's opinions. Today I see that Jia'er is so understanding and kind.  , listening to the opinions of all parties, and my father is relieved."

    Seeing that Liu Jia was a little surprised, Liu Zhang added: "Jia'er is here to show off with his father today, right? Haha, my father really wants to occupy this Yizhou herd for a while before talking to you, forcing you to stop the war first.  I'll leave it to you after the economy recovers. After listening to your words, I don't need to work hard on myself anymore. Although I don't know whether the methods you said will work, as long as you can listen to other people's opinions, you will be fine if you are wrong.  If you change it, you will definitely be able to become a good state pastor."
