Liu Bei and Liu Zhang entered the city together, and people on the street stopped to watch in groups. They had high expectations for the new monarch, which made the already lonely Liu Zhang look bitter.
From time to time, someone pointed in the distance, as if they were mocking Liu Zhang for his cowardice and incompetence. He could only force a smile and sit next to Liu Bei, receiving a whip-like look.
There was a steelyard in the hearts of the people. Liu Zhang asked himself that he did not have much weight. He would be leaving Chengdu soon anyway, so he could only face it calmly. In a trance, he saw "Ma Chao" riding a horse to the side. Liu Zhang was so excited that the hair on his body stood up.
Seeing this, Liu Bei comforted him: "Ji Yu, please relax. Bei will keep his promise. If my brother goes to live in Quanling, Ziyu will be settled well..."
"Can Xun'er come with me? I'm afraid that if he stays in Chengdu, he will cause trouble to Xuande." Liu Zhang begged.
Liu Bei smiled and said: "Nephew Xunxian is very talented. When Bei first arrived in Yizhou, he was short of manpower. It would be better to leave him in Chengdu and take care of him."
"Then please worry about Xuande..." Liu Zhang remembered that his identity had changed at this time. He was no longer the lord of Yizhou. He was no longer in the same situation as when he first met in Fucheng. Liu Bei couldn't agree and he could only compromise.
Quanling is an important town in Jingzhou. It has schools, medical clinics, martial arts halls, workshops and newspapers and magazines. These are Lantian's years of hard work. Although Lantian has absolute control in Lingling, it is difficult to treat a young man like Liu Xun Putting people there will undoubtedly add trouble to Lantian.
Liu Xun's performance made Liu Bei look at him. Liu Bei's lineup at that time was unprecedentedly strong, but this young man stubbornly blocked him for nearly half a year in Luocheng, which was somewhat extraordinary.
Liu Zhang surrendered to Liu Bei, and most officials in Yizhou followed suit. However, officials with integrity such as Huang Quan did not choose to serve in official positions until Liu Zhang left Yizhou to show their loyalty to the old master.
Liu Bei granted Liu Zhang the title of General Zhenwei and asked him and his second son Liu Chan to move to Quanling. When they left Chengdu, they loaded several carts with their belongings. Liu Bei ordered Li Yi to escort him along the way without paying a penny.
Before leaving, Liu Bei personally went out of the city to see him off. Liu Zhang thought that his eldest son would stay in Chengdu and did not want to see this place suffer another war, so he kindly reminded him: "My lord, please take care of yourself. I have a piece of advice, please listen to it..." "
"Oh? What are Ji Yu's instructions?" Liu Bei asked curiously.
Liu Zhang glanced at Ma Chao and whispered: "Zhang admires my lord's courage, but how can a beautiful jade collide with a stubborn rock? Ma Chao is not an ordinary person and has the courage to believe. Now that his whole family has been killed, he has no worries. It is too much for him." I fear being harmed if I get close to him. My father and I have not managed Shu well for twenty years. I really hope that my lord will turn this place into the second Jingzhou..."
"Who is Ji Yu talking about?" Liu Bei pretended to be surprised.
At this moment Liu Bei is ready to reveal the answer. Although the actual situation is cruel to Liu Zhang, it is even more cruel to keep the other party in the dark. Now it is just a matter of time for the other party to mention Liu Bei.
Liu Zhang looked at the white-robed general not far away and gestured: "Isn't that Xiliang Jin Ma Chao?"
Liu Bei explained: "This is Chen Shuzhi, who is mainly responsible for Bei's personal guards."
"Who is the foreign cavalry stationed at the north gate of Chengdu?" Liu Zhang asked with a frown.
Liu Bei said with a smile: "Kongming, Yide and Zilong entered Sichuan on three routes. On the way, they recruited many Qiang, Pu, Liao, Xi and other foreign soldiers. Bei reorganized them into a unit, named Baijie soldiers, and handed them over to Shuzhi. In command."
Liu Zhang felt a little inexplicably uncomfortable, and he asked hesitantly: "My lord should have read the Yangtze River News. Then Xiliang Ma Chao hasn't joined you yet?"
Liu Bei shook his head, "Ma Chao did defeat Longyou, but he has not come to Chengdu yet, but Liao Gongyuan's analysis is well-founded. Sooner or later, he will go to Shu to fight with Bei against Cao's thieves."
After Liu Zhang thought about it, it was indeed the case. Even if he was left alive, the outcome would be the same. After comforting himself, he didn't feel so uncomfortable.
In late November of the 18th year of Jian'an, Liu Bei entertained his soldiers in Chengdu and rewarded them with twenty carts of gold and silver sent from Lantian. However, the distribution was not enough and he took it from the treasury.
Liu Bei was not dazzled by the victory. He always kept Lantian's careful planning in mind and asked Zhuge Liang to be measured when distributing rewards and not to let Yizhou's treasury be emptied.
At the same time, Liu Bei took charge of the Yizhou Mu Kaifu to manage affairs. Although the generals from all directions in the Han Dynasty had the right to open a government, no one set this precedent. At this time, Liu Bei also opened the government in the name of Da Sima and Sili Xiaowei. .
Liu Bei appointed Zhuge Liang as the military advisor general, Liu Zhang's former minister Dong He as the general in charge of the army, and both of them were in charge of the affairs of the left general and the Sima Mansion. Cao Peng.
Pang Tong was the prefect of Guanghan and General Yangwei, Fa Zheng was the prefect of Shu County and General Yangwu, Huang Zhong was the general who suppressed the captives, Mi Zhu was the general Anhan, Zhao Yun was the general Yijun, Jian Yong was the general Zhaode, and Sun Qian was the general Bingzhong. Huang Quan is the partial general, Wei Yan is the assistant general, Li Yan is the prefect of Jianwei, Fei Guan is the prefect of Bajun, Huo Jun is the prefect of Zitong, Yiji is engaged in Zhonglang, and Peng Yi is engaged in governance.
Perhaps it was because Sun Quan once designated Shi Xie as the general of the left, and at this time Liu Bei also gave Sun Quan's general who conquered the captives to Huang Zhong.
As the saying goes, we can share adversity but not wealth. It is impossible to satisfy everyone with rewards. In addition, Zhuge Liang strictly rewards according to the merit book, which fails to make the generals earn a lot of money. These people united to complain to Liu Bei in front of the palace, please He distributed the fields and houses of the people of Chengdu to the generals.
When Liu Bei started the uprising in Jiamengguan, it was because Liu Zhang was stingy with money. Therefore, Liu Bei was speechless in response to this request, and Zhuge Liang, Pang Tong, Fazheng, etc. were not in a position to give advice, because after all, this was something that offended people.
At the critical moment, Zhao Yun stepped forward. He clasped his fists, looked around, and said solemnly: "Huo Yao once said, 'The Huns are not destroyed, and there is no use for the family.' Today, the thieves in the country have not been eliminated, and the world is not at peace. How can we seize Yizhou for personal use?" After the initial military revolution, the people's hearts were not yet attached, and the land and houses were returned in due course, so that the people could live and recuperate in peace, and the prosperity of the Kingdom of Abundance could be restored.
In the past, Jingnan was exhausted and withered, but in a few years it has become a fertile land. Will the Lord compete with the people for profit at that time? Mr. Ziyu once said, "You have to have it in the pot first, then you can have it in the bowl." 'You want to seize the people's pots, where will the rice come from in the bowls? "
Zhao Yun's words were resounding, and everyone in the palace was greatly shocked. They originally thought that they were going to force the palace, but unexpectedly, a young man jumped out halfway.
"General Zilong was promoted to General Yijun, and now he is not very noble even if he says that he is righteous, huh..."
Someone in the corner was angry, but because he deliberately changed his tone, Liu Bei didn't see who was speaking. The original intention of them grouping together was to fight for more, and at this time they were covering each other.
Zhao Yun turned around and sneered, the word "rat" stuck in his nostrils. Then he clasped his fists and said to Liu Bei: "This time my contribution is not as good as that of Yide. Yide is not willing to be rewarded. Yun is also willing to give up the reward and ask the lord to take back his life."
Zhang Fei walked out of the train and stared angrily at the direction where he had just spoken. However, he was not as excited as Zhao Yun. Instead, his face changed and he said with a smile: "I don't want the reward from eldest brother, but I will look for Ziyu to feast on you later. Zilong, you Don’t be impulsive.”
Zhao Yun nodded and said: "Yide will call me when the time comes, and we will go harass General Lan together."
At this time, Liu Bei saw Zhuge Liang's eyes signaling, and then stretched out his hand to stop the commotion: "The people of Yizhou are still undecided at the beginning of Bei's reign. The property in the treasury is indeed lacking. Your contributions have been recorded. We will discuss it when the situation is better." Reissue to everyone, as for Zilong’s request..."
"My lord, please grant me your permission." Zhao Yun clasped his fists again.
Liu Bei nodded happily, "Then Zilong will be wronged."
