"Are you Luoshan?"
Liu Chan looked at the barbarian man kneeling in front of him.
Luoshan, a barbarian Han in Hanfu, is tall, mighty and strong. His face was dignified and resolute, and his deep eyes under his thick eyebrows shone with sharp light. The skin shows a healthy tan, with several hideous scars carved on his face, his arms are strong and powerful, and his muscle lines are clearly visible.
At this moment, the man with disheveled hair is wearing Hanfu, but it can be seen at a glance that he is not a Han, but a barbarian.
"Your Highness, the common people are Luoshan."
Liu Chan is having dinner at the moment.
Hold the slices of meat with chopsticks, add meat and vegetable soup, a pot of hot wine, and eat slowly.
After swallowing a piece of meat, Liu Chan asked again: "Why do you want to come to see me?"
There was a cunning look in Luo Shan's eyes.
"I heard that His Highness wants to use troops against Changsha County. Although the common people are not talented, they have thousands of capable soldiers under their command. They can help His Highness capture Changsha County. In the future, they can also manage Changsha County for His Highness, so that the disaster of Changsha barbarians will never happen again. exist."
It turned out that he was here for speculation.
Liu Chan drank a bottle of hot wine with a thoughtful look on his face.
Seeing that Liu Chan didn't reply directly, Luo Shan felt uneasy and lowered his head even further. He only dared to glance at Liu Chan secretly and observe Liu Chan's expression.
"If you come to take charge of Changsha County, can you ensure that there will be no chaos in Changsha County?"
Luo Shan was overjoyed when he heard this and thought Liu Chan had agreed to his request!
He quickly stood up and said: "Please send a large army to help me annex the barbarians in the mountains of Changsha County, and then occupy the city. When I have tens of thousands of troops under my command, even if the barbarian brothers come back from Yangzhou, I will not be afraid of them."
hehe.
It's quite a beautiful thought.
Liu Chan looked at Luoshan jokingly and asked, "What qualifications do you have to be supported by me? How do I know if you will become the second Changsha Barbarian after I support you?"
Now that Luo Shan wanted something from him, he was naturally extremely humble.
but
When he really has tens of thousands of troops under his command, will he still treat Liu Chan as a dog?
The people of Changsha County are fierce and fierce. Sometimes, even if Luoshan wants to be submissive to him, the barbarians under his command will push him to oppose the Han army.
By then
He wanted to send troops to suppress Changsha County again.
Back and forth, countless efforts were made, but no results were achieved.
Liu Chan is not stupid.
"I would like to swear by the sky, by the barbarian god!"
Seeing Luo Shan's vow, Liu Chan shook his head and said, "I don't believe in the oath."
"Then how can Your Highness trust me?"
The soldiers under the crown prince of Hanzhong can be described as invincible in the world.
At least among the four counties in Jingnan, it is possible to walk sideways.
With his help, he can become the local emperor of Changsha County!
nowadays.
The crown prince of Hanzhong did not believe in his loyalty.
Luo Shan's eyes flashed and he knelt his head on the ground three times. Then he raised his head and said, "I am willing to send all my family to Jiangling."
After delivering the pledge, His Highness should feel relieved, right?
Liu Chan didn't want to but shook his head.
"Women are like clothes, and families are like duckweeds. When a good man is alive, his mother-in-law can remarry and his son can be born again."
Do you really gain loyalty by giving pledges?
Not sure?
Luo Shan's face was red at the moment. He was racking his brains to think about how to gain Liu Chan's trust, but he couldn't think of it for the moment.
I almost burned out my CPU.
"Well, if you want to gain my trust, you have to produce results. I heard that you can recruit thousands of soldiers under your rule?"
Luo Shan thought Liu Chan wanted to test his strength, so he quickly said: "Selling iron can bring out 7,000 people."
Seven thousand people?
Quite a few.
You can give him Liu Chan's blood for a long time.
"If you want to gain my trust, become the governor of Changsha County, and control the life and death of the people in this area, it depends on whether you have the ability and whether you have enough merit."
Bang bang bang~
Luo Shan hammered his chest with his right hand, making a loud sound.
"The common people definitely have the ability, and they will definitely earn the credit!"
"If you can take the lead in removing the barbarians from Changsha, then what if I, Your Majesty, ask you to be the governor of Changsha County?"
The smile on Liu Chan's face was very warm.
However.
Guan Yinping, who was beside Liu Chan, looked at the expression on Liu Chan's face and gave him goosebumps.
snort!
Lang Jun showed this expression, he must be thinking of doing something bad!
"Wen Wei, tell him our policy to put down the rebellion in Changsha County."
Fei Yi stood up immediately and slowly explained Liu Chan's military merit system in Changsha.
After listening, Luoshan took a long time to digest.
After digesting the information in Fei Yi's words, Luo Shan came out with an excited expression on his face.
"Your Highness, can war horses really be replaced? Especially the Western Region BMWs in the army?"
Liu Chan nodded.
"It can be changed."
The pie can be made larger.
Can be replaced.
I didn't say how much it would cost.
Liu Chan would be willing to give you a few BMWs.
"In this case, the common people are willing to be driven by His Highness to suppress the disobedient barbarians in Changsha County!"
He was not the only one to suppress the disobedient barbarians in Changsha. The Crown Prince of Hanzhong also personally sent troops!
Kill the enemy together with the Han army.
Earning military merit can also be exchanged for supplies from the Han army.
hey-hey!
Isn't this here to pick up leaks?
"good!"
Liu Chan nodded slightly. He also knew what Luo Shan was thinking.
"Within twenty days, raise the army and march to You County. You will pacify the five counties of You County, Chaling, Ancheng, Yinshan, and Rongling. I will send guides and Han officers accompanying the army to support you. In terms of food and grass, , a small number can be supported, but the bulk still has to be recruited by yourself."
"ah?"
Luo Shan was stunned.
The land of five counties?
It is also the place where the Man Manhao brothers in Changsha finally left.
This five-county area, with its high mountains and lofty mountains, is the place where barbarians are most rampant in Changsha.
To pacify these five counties, it took a lot of casualties.
That's definitely huge.
Seven thousand people were smashed inside, and it was unknown how many of them could come out alive.
"Your Highness, besides the Han official guides, are there no Han troops accompanying you? I'm afraid the grassroots army is not strong enough."
If food and grass are not provided, the Han army will not follow.
You want me to die in the hinterland of Changsha?
Prince Liu Gongsi of Hanzhong, do you dare to be more sinister?
"I can allocate a thousand elite soldiers to accompany you."
one thousand?
A thousand worth of things.
Luoshan looked bitter.
"Your Highness, a thousand people are too few."
Too little?
"snort!"
Liu Chan snorted coldly and said: "One general's success can lead to thousands of bones being withered. Don't you know this truth? If you want to enjoy wealth in the future, you have to make sacrifices. Think about it, when you become the governor of Changsha County, you will rule With hundreds of thousands of people, it is easy to raise an army of tens of thousands. Now these 7,000 people are just you paying in advance."
Seeing that Luo Shan was still hesitating, Liu Chan continued: "Brother Manhao has escaped from Changsha County and gone to Yangzhou. If you can't even defeat the remaining soldiers, how can I dare to hand over Changsha County to you in the future? In the future, If the Manhao brothers return to Changsha County, wouldn't it mean that Changsha County is going to be in turmoil again?"
"this"
Although there was hesitation on Luo Shan's face, it was obvious that he had been persuaded a lot by Liu Chan.
What His Highness said seems to be unreasonable.
Liu Chan struck while the iron was hot and said, "It's not like you can deal with the Changsha barbarians alone. I have tens of thousands of troops under my command, and I'm going through all the counties in Changsha County at the same time. What you're dealing with is just the barbarians in the five counties. Why should you be afraid of them?"
"Your Highness. I."
"Um?"
Liu Chan frowned and said, "If you feel you don't have the ability, I can leave this job to someone else, but when the time comes, the position of governor of Changsha County will not be yours."
Want a freeloader?
Under my Liu Chan hands, you are the only one who bleeds, not the freeloaders!
"Your Highness, wait a moment."
Seeing that Liu Chan was about to get up and leave, Luo Shan quickly stopped Liu Chan.
"I agree, but it will take time to eradicate the barbarians in the five counties."
time?
Liu Chan smiled and said, "Is one month enough?"
A month?
He waved his hand quickly and said, "It will take at least three months."
If he can solve the barbarian rebellion in five counties in three months, his ability is considered outstanding.
Liu Chan nodded.
"I'll give you three months to work hard. I'm still the most optimistic about you as the governor of Changsha County."
With that said, Liu Chan waved his hand to the waiter and said, "Give Brother Luoshan some wine."
Seeing Liu Chan's enthusiastic look, Luo Shan could only smile bitterly.
Although the wine bottle in his hand was hot, his heart felt uneasy and cold.
He spent three months wiping out the barbarians in five counties. I wonder if he has the ability to do so!
This basically puts pressure on the future of the entire clan.
It worked.
Then he would go one step further and become the local emperor of Changsha County.
Failed.
That is the death of the body and the annihilation of the clan.
Now the family business cannot be saved.
but.
The opportunity is in front of us. How can we do it without taking a gamble?
Gulu~
After pouring a bottle of hot wine into his stomach, Luo Shan wiped the wine stains on the corners of his mouth with his sleeves.
"Your Highness, please keep your promise."
"I have always made a promise. As long as you can make meritorious deeds, I will not hesitate to reward you."
Luo Shan at least has some Han background.
It would definitely be better to leave Changsha County in his hands than the powerful brothers in Changsha.
certainly
He, Liu Chan, must practice checks and balances in the underworld.
Even if Luo Shan has made great achievements, there still needs to be someone to check and balance him in Changsha County.
Do you want to be a local emperor in Changsha County and have a single family?
That's impossible!
"good!"
After getting Liu Chan's promise, Luo Shan immediately bowed to Liu Chan and resigned.
Looking at Luoshan's back, Liu Chan asked Guan Yinping beside him: "Feng'er, do you think he can deal with the Changsha barbarians in the five counties?"
Suddenly asked by Liu Chan, Guan Yinping thought for a while and said quickly: "He has 7,000 people under his command, plus the 1,000 people sent by His Highness, the number of people is as many as 8,000. The five counties seem to be a lot of land. But the remaining Changsha barbarians are probably less than three thousand, and they are all old and weak, so it should not be a problem."
"Changsha Man escaped into the mountains. To find him, we have to look at Luo Shan's wrist."
The reason why the barbarians are difficult to suppress is not because of how strong they are in combat, but because they are so good at running away.
Being able to catch and annihilate is a difficult problem.
"If Luoshan's methods were more violent, he might be able to force the Manhao brothers back from Yangzhou."
If all the clan members in Changsha County were wiped out, they might not be able to resist coming back for revenge, right?
He may not have the courage to let the Changsha Manman brothers take action against the Han army.
But for Man Luoshan, the Han man whom he usually bullies, I'm afraid this Man Hao brother still has the courage.
"Lang Jun means to use Luoshan to lure the powerful brothers back? To annihilate them in one fell swoop in Changsha County?"
Guan Yinping's eyes lit up.
Even Guan Xing, who was drinking on the side, clapped his hands in excitement?
"This method is good. Then I have to ambush him not far from the Five Counties in advance, lest he comes and we can't keep up."
Liu Chan waved his hand and said, "It's not urgent. Although Han Man is more submissive, he should still do it if he consumes his strength."
Xiajun County and Luo County are the places where the Luoshan Han people are barbarically entrenched. After the Luoshan army left, they organized households and people and measured the land, so there was no resistance.
The soldiers in the front will sacrifice their lives, and the soldiers in the rear will raid their lair.
This issue
It is indeed a bit inhumane.
But Liu Chan didn't want to stir up turmoil with this move. He just wanted to ventilate Luo Shantong first and let him leave some manpower to assist.
The Han barbarians can still be transformed. Qieluo County and Xiajun are next to Dongting Lake. The land is considered fertile. With water conservancy projects built and land reclaimed, this place has more potential to become a granary than Nanzhong.
You can also fish in the lake.
At that time, the dried fish can also be used by the merchant alliance to conduct business, which can connect Changsha County to Liu Chan's Jingzhou merchant alliance system.
After all, he is developing Changsha County.
He won't do anything to grab things.
Let’s all get rich together.
Let’s live a good life together!
The slogan needs to be shouted louder!
Early next morning.
The sky is bright.
But the army was already preparing to leave.
Liu Chan's destination today is naturally Linxiang, the county seat of Changsha County.
Nibble on the easy bones first, and then take the time to gnaw on the harder ones below.
Liu Chan had long coveted this large piece of flat land in Changsha County.
The plains of the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River definitely have development potential.
"Let's go."
Liu Chan rode on a war horse and set off with the army.
However, not long after leaving Yiyang County, there were spies catching up behind him.
"Your Highness, the envoy from Jiangdong wants to see you."
Jiangdong envoy?
Liu Chan was stunned.
He was preparing to inform Jiangdong and be ready to break into Yangzhou at any time.
Unexpectedly, the Jiangdong envoy was more anxious than him.
Could it be that something has changed in Hefei?
Liu Chan thought for a while and said, "Let the envoy from Jiangdong come to see me."
Soon.
Zhuge Jin, who was covered in dust and looked haggard, appeared in front of Liu Chan.
He was riding on a war horse and looked completely out of sorts.
"Your Highness, we finally caught up."
He set out from Hefei and first arrived in Jiangling, where he learned that Liu Chan had gone to Wuling.
When I arrived in Linyuan, I learned that Liu Chan had gone to Changsha.
Over the past twenty days, we have indeed been marching in a hurry.
It would be strange if this man could not be haggard!
Seeing that it was Zhuge Jin, an old acquaintance, Liu Chan also had a smile on his face.
"Tzuyu is here. I wonder what Marquis Wu has to say?"
Huhehuhe~
Zhuge Jin gasped and said, "This is not the place to talk. Your Highness, please come to the carriage to talk."
The carriage of the Crown Prince of Hanzhong was quite spacious.
There is plenty of room for at least two people.
You can even put two food bowls in the middle and put some drinks on them.
"My Lord would like to invite His Highness to fight against Wei together."
Just after he sat down, Zhuge Jin went straight to the point.
"Can't you defeat the remnants of Hefei's army?"
Zhuge Jin blushed and said hurriedly: "It's not that we can't capture it, it's just that the time has not come yet. I would like to ask Your Highness to attack Yingchuan from Ye County to make room for my lord."
hehe.
This Sun Quan really dared to speak.
Liu Chan looked at Zhuge Jin with a smile and asked, "If you want me to help you Jiangdong, what benefits can I get?"
He, Mr. Liu, can't afford to be early because he has no profit.
If I want to work for nothing, there is no way.
However.
Zhuge Jin's next words made Liu Chan almost spit out the drink he just drank.
