Just as Cao Cao was committed to rectifying the situation in the court, Liu Bei decisively marched out of Hanzhong!
After half a year of recuperating his energy and training the elite Southern Barbarians, Liu Bei commanded a hundred thousand swords to attack Liangzhou!
This trip to Liangzhou can be said to be full of elites.
Liu Bei, who originally wanted to have fun and conquer personally, was finally persuaded by Zhuge Liang, Fazheng, Lu Xun and others, and had to stay in Chengdu.
Of course, as the Taifu, Zhuge Liang also accompanied Liu Bei.
As long as Zhuge Wolong is around, Liu Bei will feel at ease.
During this campaign, Fazheng and Lu Xun accompanied Liu Mang on his expedition to Liangzhou.
Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, and Ma Chao, the three tiger generals, are bound to capture Liangzhou.
Huang Zhong refused to obey his elders, and was finally entrusted with an important task by Zhuge Liang. He and his "wife" Yan Yan jointly guarded Hanzhong to prevent Cao Cao from attacking.
Guan Ping, Pang De, Meng Huo, Zhu Rong, Ma Dai, E Huan, Xing Daorong and other generals all followed Liu Mang.
These are people who are skilled in bow and horse, and can lead the cavalry to fight head-on with the Qiang and Hu.
As for the local generals in Yizhou, their equestrian skills are really unsightly.
Liu Mang thought for a long time and decided to let them garrison Shu.
Knowing that Liu Mang planned to attack Liangzhou, Zhu Rong, as his wife, would definitely support him fully.
Nanman Seventy-Two Cave gathered two thousand barbarian cavalry to support Liu Mang.
In addition to the 10,000 Xiliang cavalry led by Ma Chao, the cavalry phalanx totals 12,000 people. No matter where they go, they are a presence that can swagger through the city.
Before Liu Mang left, he gave Lu Qiling and Sun Shangxiang a lot of advice.
These two are both restless masters. One always wants to gallop on the battlefield with a horse and a gun.
The other is to go deep behind enemy lines to obtain valuable information for Liu Mang.
"Okay, don't be nagging!"
Lu Qiling said angrily: "Jiang Wei and Guo'er come to accompany us every day, so you don't have to worry."
Sun Shangxiang stroked his belly and said with a smile, "Good boy! When you are born smoothly, mother will help your father kill Cao Cao!"
Ahem!
Liu Mang was ashamed, and Sun Shangxiang was still regretting his absence from the Battle of Hanzhong.
After all, being able to go into battle to kill Cao Cao in person is impressive in public!
Lu Qiling chuckled and said, "Our tigress is a well-deserved female general!"
Sun Shangxiang retorted: "The female fox is not bad! With you sitting in the rear, my husband and I can use our skills!"
Zhu Rong promised that he would take good care of Liu Mang and would never let any Yingying Yanyan get close to her husband easily.
After all, there are Zhang Xingcai and Guan Yinping waiting for Liu Mang's pillow, waiting to take over!
"Brother Changqing!"
Zhang Xingcai hugged Liu Mang and made a face at Lu Qiling.
"Ahem, Xingcai, don't be so tight...it's a bit big!"
"Bah! You're the big one!"
Zhang Xingcai realized that he had said the wrong thing, but the more he said it, the more wrong he said, and in the end he blushed with embarrassment.
"Brother Liu Mang, don't worry! I will take good care of your two sisters!"
Guan Yinping has already chosen his own weapon. Unlike his father and brother, Juli Loli's weapons are two sledgehammers!
"Yin Ping... you didn't grow up eating golden food, did you..."
"Second uncle's daughter is really amazing!"
Hearing Liu Mang's words, Guan Yinping couldn't help drooling.
"Jin Ke La...is it delicious?"
"Good... delicious..."
Liu Mang was so ashamed that he promised to give each of them a war horse when he came back, which satisfied everyone.
Trainer Bu was always gentle and pleasant, Liu Mang gently held him in his arms.
"Thank you for your hard work at home!"
"The prince does not care about my identity, I am already grateful!"
"We are all one family, don't talk about two families!"
Liu Mang gave a few words of comfort to Coach Bu. He knew that he had never been able to conceive a child and was under great pressure to give in to Coach Bu.
"Don't worry, I will make it up to you twice as much when I come back!"
"If we practice day and night, we will definitely be able to train our children!"
Bu Lianshi has a pretty and shy face, so she naturally knows what the word "Lian" means.
The dispatch of food and fodder for a hundred thousand troops is bound to become a major project.
If it is not managed properly, it will bring down the entire country.
Fortunately, Huang Yueying's wooden cattle and horses, together with the help of Ma Jun and other Mohist disciples, fully replaced ordinary mules and horses and became the main force of the Han army's grain transportation.
Jiang Wan, Dong Yun, Fei Yi and other young talents assisted Zhuge Liang in handling various affairs.
Chengdu is prosperous, especially Liu Mang's use of counter-public opinion warfare.
Every day, the people were informed of what the imperial court had done in the form of public notices.
Local officials are even ordered to set aside one day a month to listen to people's suggestions.
This approach allows the people of Yizhou to fully understand what it means to be the master of a country.
As long as your suggestion is reliable, the court will not only adopt it, but also give you a sum of money as a reward.
This also led to the common people working together to not only work hard in farming, but also think about solving problems for the country.
In the area under Liu Bei's jurisdiction, the people all praised the benevolence and righteousness of the Hanzhong king and his son.
In addition, the guidance of the Changqing tabloid also allowed more people to see Cao Cao's face clearly.
"Thankfully, Master Zhang allowed us to avoid disaster in Chengdu!"
"Yes, now that I can return to Hanzhong, the court also gave me a lot of food as compensation!"
"If Cao Cao were to move us to Liangzhou, we might not even know how we died!"
The common people learned that Liu Mang was about to go on an expedition, and word of mouth spread the news. They took the initiative to see off the Han army and presented them with food, wine, fruits and vegetables.
Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were at the front. This was the respect Liu Mang gave them as meritorious veterans.
"Second brother! When we set off from Lousang Village, the villagers and elders also came to see us off!"
Zhang Fei sighed with emotion: "I just don't know if I can return to Zhuojun Taoyuan in this life!"
Guan Yu caressed his beautiful beard and said comfortingly: "Yide! Who would have thought back then that my eldest brother would become the king of Hanzhong, and you and I would be granted the title of marquis after defeat!"
"With Mang'er here, you and I, the three brothers, will eventually return to Taoyuan!"
Liu Bei stood on the city tower and looked at the figures of his second and third brothers.
I wanted to shout several times, but in the end I just waved at their backs.
The love between brothers is deep, but this time they go to war again, which makes him very concerned.
The enemy they faced this time was definitely not their old rival Cao Cao, but the Qiang and Hu cavalry who were numerous and came and went like flying.
Liu Bei thought silently in his heart, hoping that his son and brothers would return safely.
"Your Majesty!"
"Kong Ming, what do you want from me?"
Zhuge Liang reminded him softly. Only then did Liu Bei come to his senses. The army had already left the city and disappeared from sight.
"On the occasion of his good fortune, the prince left some tasks for the king."
"Mission? What a traitor! I am his father, and he actually assigned me a mission!"
Liu Bei was furious, "Don't do it! Even if you beat him to death, kill him, or curse him to death, I won't do it!"
The performance of the King of Hanzhong had long been expected by Zhuge Liang.
"Your Majesty has said that if your Majesty follows his instructions, all the people of Yizhou will be united in arms, the army and the people will be united, and the world will be invincible!"
"Kong Ming, come quickly!"
Zhuge Liang shook his head helplessly, "The King of Hanzhong says he doesn't want it, but his body is very honest!"
