Jiangling.
Governor's Mansion.
backyard.
Liu Chan is very busy at the moment.
Busy detoxifying this charming and plump beauty.
Especially the beautiful concubine Hu who Liu Yan gave to him was deeply poisoned.
Fortunately, Liu Chan has rich experience in detoxification and can be described as a real miracle doctor.
Knead it gently, twist it slowly, apply it and pick it again, it will be a colorful dress at first and then six pieces.
It was just some means. The toxicity originally hidden in Hu's body was directly forced out of the body by Liu Chan.
"Your Highness~"
Hu's eyes were almost dripping with water.
No wonder it took more than a month for the Hu family to come out after entering the Chengdu Imperial Palace.
Who would it be, not to torment her for a month?
"Your Highness, why don't you come in?"
Mrs. Hu's face was flushed, sweating profusely, her beautiful eyes opened, with resentment and blame in her eyes, and some surprises that were difficult to hide.
The woman who became Liu Chan, and the woman who became Liu Yan.
Is there still a choice?
One is the prince and the other is the minister.
Therefore, after Mrs. Hu was given to Liu Chan by Liu Yan, instead of being sad, she was very happy.
Be very positive too.
I wish I could give everything to His Highness the Crown Prince.
Words are powerless, bodies are honest.
At this time, Liu Chan immediately used his detoxification attack method to spread Hu's body first.
The next thing is to use Liu Chan's medical skills to detoxify him.
Start charging!
. . .
After a while, the clouds and rain dissipated.
After the detoxification, Liu Chan's overall spirit became much better.
Return to the lobby of the Governor's Mansion.
Liu Chan sat on the main seat.
The officials of the Prince's Mansion are already second in rank.
Even Zhang Bao, who was wandering in the mountains and forests of Nanjun, had arrived in Jiangzhou at this moment.
Zhang Bao has a strong build, dark skin, messy hair scattered on his towering shoulders, and his face has been traumatized several times.
But those eyes have become a lot brighter.
Obviously, he still gained a lot in the mountains and forests of Nanjun.
"Have all these Linjun barbarians been eradicated?"
Liu Chan fixed his gaze on Zhang Bao.
Zhang Bao bowed to Liu Chan, and with every move he made, murderous intent overflowed unconsciously.
"The established Linjun tribes have basically been eradicated, but there are still many Linjun tribes scattered. These people are hiding in the mountains and forests and are difficult to find. If we send out more troops to pursue them, it will be more than worth the gain. ”
Zhang Bao led his troops into the mountains and forests to fight, basically because of food supply.
After all, every tribe has a lot of food and grass stored in it.
But now that the big tribes have been wiped out, the savings of the remaining small tribes can no longer support the large army for conquest.
This is also the reason why Zhang Bao returned from Nanjun.
Seeing the worried look on Liu Chan's face, Zhang Bao continued: "The remaining Linjun barbarians are no longer in power. Besides, the slave arrest order has always been there. It is only a matter of time before these people are eliminated."
The mountains and forests between Bajun and Nanjun are still too vast.
The remnants of Lin Junman escaped into it. If there was no internal response, it would be difficult to find their traces.
But just as Zhang Bao said, the remaining Linjun barbarians are no longer the best.
"When you pass through Badi, what changes have occurred in Langzhong and Danqu?"
Zhang Bao immediately said: "Although there are rebellions by the rebels in Danqu and Langzhong from time to time, they are all minor disturbances. Your Highness's policies can be implemented. However, there are nearly 20,000 rebels in the Guards. If they all stay in Badi, , I’m afraid it’s also a disaster.”
The current military guards are still trustworthy.
However, if the human guards are allowed to remain in Badi, their wild nature will inevitably breed.
Liu Chan immediately said: "You don't have to worry about this. Five thousand people have been transferred to Chengdu as the central imperial guards to guard the capital. They will be transferred every three years to protect the people and prevent chaos."
There are too many Nanzhong barbarians in Chengdu.
Letting people in can be regarded as a way of checking and balancing.
At the same time, this garrison system can also firmly control these scammers.
"In addition, Gu has also recruited 10,000 guards and is preparing to follow him to Jiangling."
Going to Gangneung?
Zhang Bao was completely stunned when he heard this.
"Isn't His Highness going back to Chengdu? Why did he go to Jiangling?"
Looking at Zhang Bao's puzzled eyes, Liu Chan chuckled and said, "There are changes in the state of Wu. Now is a great time to plot against the state of Wu."
As for the strategy of building the plank road openly and secretly to assassinate Chencang, only a few people in Han Dynasty know about it.
The fewer people who know about the plan before it is carried out, the better.
"Is there a change in the state of Wu?"
Zhang Bao narrowed his eyes. Killing people in the mountains and forests for a long time had already made Zhang Bao develop an aura of calmness and self-power.
Just by squinting his eyes, the murderous aura on his body unconsciously overflowed.
"Your Highness wants to use troops against the Kingdom of Wu?"
"If the state of Wu refuses to obey, it will be necessary to use troops."
After learning about Badi, Liu Chan looked around at the ministers in the hall and said: "Huo Yi reported that the King of Wu did not agree to our request, and the King of Wu summoned the envoys of the Wei State, and it seems that he has formed an alliance with the Wei State. In this case , I am going to Jiangling alone now to prepare for the attack on Wu!"
Defeat Wu?
The expressions of the people present varied.
Generals like Zhang Bao and Guan Xing were naturally gearing up and had no intention of refusing.
As a general, he naturally wants to fight every day, so that he can achieve merit every day.
For example, Zhang Bao was instrumental in pacifying Badi, although his title could no longer be mentioned.
After all, he is already a feudal lord.
But in terms of official positions, it can be mentioned higher.
However, due to his age, he could not become a local garrison. If he achieved success in conquering Wu this time, he might be able to take over the position of garrison in Langzhong.
Fei Yi, Fei Guan, Dong Yun and other civil servants thought more.
"Your Highness, if you want to attack Wu, will you inform Your Majesty about this?"
Now Liu Chan can make his own decisions on many things without informing Liu Bei.
However, sending troops to conquer a country is a matter of no small importance. Naturally, we must be cautious and cautious. It requires the support of the whole country, and of course the cooperation of Chengdu.
Liu Chan nodded.
"The matter of conquering Wu is of great importance. My father has already known about it and promised to do so."
With Chengdu's cooperation, that's fine.
but.
A worried look appeared on Fei Guan's face, and he said to Liu Chan: "Your Highness, there are at least tens of thousands of soldiers in Wu State. If the whole country is mobilized and a hundred thousand troops are recruited in a short time, there will be no problem at all. Yes, your highness now has less than 20,000 soldiers and no capable generals. How to defeat Wu? This matter must be considered in the long run."
Dong Yun nodded aside.
"It is our national policy as a great Han Dynasty to unite with Wu to fight against Wei. If we send troops to attack Wu at this time, wouldn't it mean that Wei is reaping the benefits? I think it is absolutely impossible to attack Wu, at least not now."
The others stepped forward one after another and said:
"Conquering Wu is of great importance, please think twice, Your Highness!"
"I, a big man, need to recuperate and recuperate now. We cannot send out large armies to attack him."
"Even if we want to fight, we are also fighting Wei. Why fight Wu?"
Now is indeed not the time to attack Wu, but Liu Chan needs to release a message to the outside world.
He is a big man and wants to attack Wu!
Since it's acting, you have to act realistically.
Liu Chan narrowed his eyes and said immediately: "Are you afraid of the mere Jiangdong rats? From Gu's point of view, the probability that this attack on Wu will be successful is very high. With the troops currently at his disposal, although Gu There are less than 20,000, but the Yufu garrison, the Jiangling garrison, the Jingnan barbarian army, and the Nanzhong Wudang flying army together total 60,000 to 70,000, and these 60,000 to 70,000 troops are all battle-hardened veterans. , if declared to the outside world, it can be said to be an army of 200,000."
Liu Chan stood up from his seat and said, "With an army of 200,000, we will attack Wu. This battle will be won!"
"this"
My fellow ministers, you look at me, I look at you, I don’t know what to say for a moment.
Where does His Highness's confidence come from?
Jiangdong Rats, Jiangdong Rats.
But the soldiers of the State of Wu cannot be underestimated, and the navy of the State of Wu is the best in the world.
If you underestimate the state of Wu, you will suffer a big loss.
"Your Highness, the State of Wu may not be strong in attacking, but when it comes to defending the territory, it may be difficult to defeat. Back then, Cao Mengde attacked Jiangdong many times, but was blocked from Ruxukou. Don't underestimate the State of Wu!"
The state of Wu was underdeveloped.
But in guarding their homeland, the fighting power of the soldiers of the Wu Kingdom should not be underestimated.
"No need to say more, I have made up my mind."
Liu Chan waved his hand immediately. Seeing this, everyone had no choice but to swallow his words of comfort.
But the worried look on the faces of the officials in the hall was not fake at all.
If the defeat of Wu fails
Could it be that the great situation of the Han Dynasty has been ruined?
Liu Chan naturally saw the worries of these officials and immediately said: "Since the solitary campaign, there has been no defeat. Kuang's plan to attack Wu was not a spur of the moment, but the inspiration he got from dreaming about the gods in the lonely night."
no solution anymore.
Just appease people's hearts.
Although his attack on Wu was false, to make the enemy believe it, he had to make his subordinates believe it.
Since the Eastern Han Dynasty, the art of prophecy has become popular, and there are many believers in the theory of ghosts and gods.
In addition, the mystery surrounding Liu Chan is too strong.
The young master has the energy of a dragon.
The immortal caressed my head.
Since Liu Chan came out of the mountain, he has basically been victorious in every battle. Some people say that he is the Ziwei Emperor Star who came to the world in order to end the troubled times and rejuvenate the great Han Dynasty.
People of this era still believe very much in feudal superstition.
As soon as Liu Chan said these words, his thoughts below all settled down.
Yes, His Highness is wise and powerful, and has won every battle. Even if the timing is not right this time, as long as His Highness goes out to defeat Wu and conquer this rat country in the east of the Yangtze River, it will be easy.
Ever since, because of Liu Chan's words, the ministers who originally disagreed had nothing to say.
Defeat Wu?
Then cut it down!
Fei Yi then stood up again. He stepped forward and said, "Since His Highness is preparing to attack Wu, how should we prepare for the food, grass and weapons? Will it need to be transported from place to place?"
Liu Chan nodded and said immediately: "Of course it is necessary to transfer food and grass, but there is no need to over-transport food and grass. Just prepare three months' worth of food and grass."
Prepare three months of food and grass?
The thoughts of everyone present suddenly came to life.
What does Your Highness mean by this sentence?
Are you preparing three months of food and grass to defeat the Kingdom of Wu within three months?
But within three months, Wu was conquered.
How can this be?
"From my perspective, we need to prepare at least one year's supply of food, grass and weapons, and the number of civilians to be used must be at least 300,000."
This is still a conservative estimate.
After all, if the Kingdom of Wu can be conquered within one year, it will be very fast.
Liu Chan said on the side: "Just prepare three months' worth of food and grass. Mobilize one hundred thousand people. Don't miss the spring plowing."
"promise!"
Although he was confused, Liu Chan had already made a decision, so as a minister, he could only obey Liu Chan's orders.
"Take a short rest and march to Jiangling in three days!"
There is no need to say anything else.
When we arrive at Jiangling, we must first put the pressure on Wu Guo.
As for whether Wei Guo will fall into the trap, it depends on whether his acting skills are good or not.
"Everyone please disperse."
"promise."
After everyone left, Liu Chan called out to Zhou Che behind him.
"Send the news of the army's march to Jiangling to Chengdu. In addition, the military department in Wu State will work carefully. During this period, they must search for information in a safe dormant. If it is not necessary, there is no need to contact them."
The large net cast by Jianjunsi in advance cost Liu Chan a lot of manpower and material resources.
If this network is broken, I don’t know how much it will cost to organize it again.
"yes."
Zhou Che immediately took the order.
Looking at Zhou Che's graceful back, Liu Chan nodded slightly.
She is indeed a smart woman. Basically, she can complete everything Liu Chan asks her quickly and well.
After a longer period of inspection and the size of her belly, perhaps we can entrust her with important tasks.
As long as she is a woman and has a blood connection, no matter how smart she is, her heart will be set on him.
Liu Chan wanted to attack Wu.
This news was not covered up at all. With the rush of messengers from all walks of life, it basically went from Jiangzhou to Jiangxia, and from Nanyang to Lingling Guiyang.
Everyone knows that Han will attack Wu.
Therefore, even though the Chinese New Year is already here, there is no Chinese New Year atmosphere in Jianye City at all.
Han conquered Wu.
As a ruler, Sun Quan still had no idea, let alone the people in Jianye City.
Those who are able are already preparing to send their family members to their hometown in Wu County or their hometown in Kuaiji.
Those who are unable to do so still try their best to store food and grass for emergencies.
That’s why the war hasn’t started yet!
This posed many problems for Sun Quan.
"Your Majesty, prices in Jianye have more than doubled in one day, and the people in Jianye are panicking. If this continues, we won't be able to bear it without the Han Dynasty attacking us."
Zhuge Jin said rather seriously.
The issue of food and grass is a matter of life.
Sun Quan naturally knew the seriousness of the matter.
"In Jianye City, isn't there enough food for a year? Why is there still a shortage of food?"
If there is not enough food and grass, just put out the food and grass.
Could it be that someone is living in Jiqi?
Sun Quan frowned, his eyes filled with murderous intent.
Is it possible that at this time, there are still people who want to make money from the national crisis?
Does this mean that Sun Quan's sword is not good for him?
"Who is hoarding food and grass?"
Zhuge Jin shook his head with a wry smile and said, "There are no merchants and nobles hoarding grain because there was a strong wind in Jianye City, and the people spontaneously stocked up on grain."
Before the war even started, the war of public opinion was already started.
Military Secretary!
Sun Quan was so angry that his teeth itched with hatred.
It seems that not enough people were killed in Jianye! (End of chapter)
