Hearing Liu Zhang's words, Liu Mang was shocked.
Unexpectedly, Zhang Lu, who was hated by Liu Zhang, would be considered by Liu Zhang as the leader of Yizhou?
"Uncle, don't look at me as cowardly and incompetent, but I have tried my best to let the people live a good life."
What Liu Zhang said was true. Unlike his father Liu Yan, who was ambitious and eyeing the Central Plains, he just wanted to be an incompetent person.
With an appearance of being indifferent to the world, he silently balances the Dongzhou faction and the Yizhou faction.
Even though the Dongzhou faction has always been dominant, the Yizhou faction has never been left out in the cold.
It's a pity that even Liu Yan couldn't solve this kind of historical problem, let alone Liu Zhang.
Light corvee and little wealth, a land of abundance.
To be fair, Liu Zhang still allowed the people of Yizhou to live a good life for more than ten years.
Of course, as an outsider in foreign wars, being beaten by Zhang Lu, a wild brother, was unable to fight back, and he still had to borrow Liu Bei's hand. It was purely Liu Zhang's military incompetence.
"Uncle, do you think the people of Yizhou are living a good life now?"
Liu Mang smiled and said: "In my opinion, without a hero in charge, the people of Yizhou will become nothing more than fish sooner or later!"
"Liu Yan entered Shu. In order to suppress the local nobles, he had to re-employ people from Dongzhou."
"My uncle grew up in Chengdu, but he still suppressed the Yizhou faction."
"With all due respect, you father and son are forcing the people of Yizhou to become surrenderers!"
Liu Zhang was stunned when he said this.
"I also reuse Zhang Song, Zhang Ren and others!"
"It's a pity that the hearts of Yizhou people have never been in me!"
"The people of Shu governing Shu are nothing but idiotic dreams!"
Liu Zhang said indifferently: "Zhang Lu invaded many times. Did the Yizhou people who led the army defeat them once? Aren't they a bunch of trash?"
"Zhang Ren is my close minister, so naturally he cannot go to meet the enemy!"
The famous generals in Shu are not as incompetent as Liu Zhang said.
It's just that Liu Zhang is not worthy of their lives, so Wu Yi and Wu Ban brothers all followed Zhuge Liang in the Northern Expedition and made great military exploits.
Of course, these two people belong to the Dongzhou faction.
As for the local factions in Yizhou, we have to talk about Wang Ping, the second governor of Hanzhong after Wei Yan!
I don’t know ten Chinese characters, but I have a strategy in my chest and a soldier in my belly!
He was promoted from a general to a feudal official. He used the Hanzhong defense line to defeat Cao Wei's army many times.
Such people cannot be used by Liu Zhang, what else is it but incompetence?
"My uncle is too tired to live, and the Yizhou and Dongzhou factions are constantly fighting secretly."
"Cao Cao occupies half of the country, and everyone under his command knows how to deal with the outside world."
"On the other hand, here, my uncle, who controls the small Yizhou, still plays such tricks!"
Liu Mang said disdainfully: "If you ask me, just cut it across the board! Yizhou should be dominated by Yizhou people and let outsiders dominate the locals. Isn't this just stupid behavior?"
Um?
When Liu Zhang heard this, he couldn't help but look at Liu Mang.
"Uncle, don't get me wrong, I'm not talking about you, including your father, and my father!"
Liu Bei's series of operations after entering Shu can also be called classics.
The first thing to bear the brunt was the promise to use the property of wealthy people to labor the army.
If Ma Chao hadn't defected to Liu Bei and directly shocked Chengdu with his extraordinary troops, Liu Zhang might not even have surrendered.
Pang Tong's death greatly stimulated Liu Bei. This was also the first time he ordered an attack on a wealthy family that had surrendered.
As a result, Chengdu's people were floating and the best opportunity to capture Hanzhong was missed.
Secondly, they followed the employment system of Liu Yan, Liu Zhang and his sons, and still used outsiders to suppress the local Yizhou faction.
Originally, there was only one big mountain in the Dongzhou faction that was domineering, but later the clan faction represented by Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, and Zhao Yun was added; and the Jingzhou faction represented by Zhuge Liang, Pang Tong, and Huang Zhong were added!
These two sects and the Dongzhou sect combined can be called the three mountains at the head of the Yizhou sect!
The Shu Han Dynasty destroyed the country, and the battle between several parties continues!
"Haha! Then tell me if there is any way to resolve the internal fight!"
Liu Zhang laughed at himself: "Your uncle and I are not that good! Unfortunately, some people in power are unwilling to let go of power easily, so they respect me as their master!"
poor person must have something mean.
If Liu Zhang can forge ahead and seize Hanzhong, let the Dongzhou people go to Hanzhong to operate.
Presumably, the Yizhou faction would only be grateful to Liu Zhang, and Zhang Song would never serve as the leader.
Unfortunately, there is no if.
"Expand territory!"
Liu Zhang smiled and said: "Zhang Lu only wants to be a magician and has no intention of politics! If we seize the land of Hanzhong, we can get a lot more official positions!"
"Secondly, it is the land of Nanzhong! We can once again establish a governor of Nanzhong, who will control all the military forces in Nanzhong!"
"What Yizhou people object to is not that outsiders are officials, but that outsiders are always standing over them."
"If the internal problems cannot be solved, no matter who the outsider is, the Yizhou faction will choose to surrender without hesitation!"
Liu Zhang couldn't help but wipe the sweat from his forehead. He already agreed with what Liu Mang said.
Although he had never been to Yizhou before, Liu Mang saw clearly the internal problems of his family!
When Liu Bei entered Shu, many Yizhou people hoped to change their predicament.
If Jingzhou is not lost, Yizhou can continue to get Jingzhou's talents, money and food.
The Jingzhou faction may not necessarily become the enemy of the Yizhou faction, but the bad thing is that the Shu Han in history lost Jingzhou!
This is why Liu Mang strongly recommended Zhao Yun, Pang Tong, and Gan Ning to guard Jingzhou.
We must never let tragedies like this happen again!
The awe-inspiring people are still there, who says that the Han Dynasty is dead?
"My nephew, there is some truth to this. But what will my nephew do to a king like me who has subjugated his country?"
Liu Zhang smiled jokingly and looked at Liu Mang. He was not confused, but did it deliberately.
"My uncle is not a traitor to the Han Dynasty. He is also a minister of the Han Dynasty. What do you mean by the king who subjugates his country?"
“Although the land of Jiaozhou has not yet been civilized, it has beautiful scenery and simple folk customs.”
"Uncle can move here with his close friends, and my nephew will ensure that no one will disturb him."
Jiaozhou?
I wonder how Liu Zhang and Zhang Lu will get along when they reunite in Jiaozhou.
Liu Mang's move also made the two sides contain each other.
"Well said! I heard that my nephew won Jiaozhou, and even Na Shixie was no match for him!"
"If I arrive in Jiaozhou, I'm afraid I won't be able to make any waves!"
Liu Zhang laughed and said, "However, even if I agree, people around me may not agree!"
"My good nephew wants to help Xuande get to Yizhou, but he also wants his subordinates to meet Zhenzhang!"
"I finally understand why Liu Jingsheng told the world that he wanted you to inherit Jingzhou!"
Liu Zhang looked at the night sky, wondering what he was thinking.
Liu Mang knew in his heart that Liu Jiyu was not a weak and incompetent person, but more of a benevolent person.
Otherwise, Kaicheng would not have surrendered.
"I promise you that if my ministers have no objections, I will sacrifice Yizhou peacefully."
"The idea of reviving the Han Dynasty has nothing to do with me, a distant clan relative!"
"Liu Xuande has such ambitions, and you, Qilin'er, I want to see if you can revive the great man!"
Liu Zhang smiled and said: "Let's go, we have been out for too long, let's go back and take a look!"
Liu Mang nodded, and the two of them came outside the main hall, but heard Zhang Ren and Guan Yu having an argument.
