"Send an envoy to Xuzhou to inform Zang Ba that Gu will attack Wu soon and ask him to guard it. After Gu has finished destroying Wu, he will rush to his aid."
How long Zang Ba of Xuzhou can hold on will be as long as Liu Bei's Northern Expedition.
It would be best if Wei could be held captive in Xuzhou.
For this reason, Liu Chan naturally wanted to give Zang Ba some confidence.
After all, the pressure Wei put on Xuzhou was real.
And after experiencing setbacks, Cao Pi has obviously become smarter.
In dealing with Xuzhou, he did not send troops directly, but adopted a strategy of attacking the heart.
Even though Zang Ba was famous in Xuzhou, he couldn't stand Cao Pi's boiling frog in warm water.
Many powerful people in Xuzhou were bribed by Cao Pi to a greater or lesser extent.
There is a real question mark as to whether he will betray him during the war.
Therefore, Zang Ba has been coming to Chengdu to ask for help in the past few days, but because of the high mountains and long roads, and because the Han Dynasty wanted to recuperate, he ignored it.
Now that Liu Chan is attacking the Kingdom of Wu, he is also rushing to help in disguise?
Ahem.
In fact, Liu Chan wanted Wei to attack Xuzhou.
Adhering to the tenet of the poor Taoist but not the Taoist friend, if you, Zang Ba of Xuzhou, are not beaten, how can I, a big man, make an expedition to the north?
But although there was bad water in Liu Chan's stomach, Zang Ba couldn't let Zang Ba see the bad water.
"In one year at most, even if the Wu Kingdom fails to capture it, Gu will be ready to deal with the Wei army in Runan."
Everything is true or false. If all ten sentences are false, others will never believe it.
But among the ten sentences of love, only one lie is added, which makes it difficult for ordinary people to see clearly.
It is true to defeat Wu, and it is also true to deal with the Wei army in Runan.
The support is also real.
In advance, you, Zang Ba, can really hold on.
Time is fake.
"When will Your Highness plan to attack Wu?"
Jiangling Xingyuan, lobby.
Pan Jun asked with a rather worried expression.
"When all the armies have arrived, it will naturally be time to send out troops."
Now only soldiers from Runan have arrived, and their armies from Changsha, Wuling, and Nanzhong are still on their way.
There are only more than 30,000 people gathered in Jiangling now.
More than 30,000 people are not only going to attack Wu State, but it is better not to be attacked by Wu State.
"War does not happen overnight. We have to wait at least until spring plowing before large-scale troops can be deployed. Now, it is just mobilization before the war."
If troops are used during spring plowing, then there will be no one to cultivate the land in various places.
Liu Chan's fighting in the war was just a pretense, but it was the real thing when he went to Jingzhou to farm.
"Then it will take at least two months before His Highness sends troops."
Liu Chan was noncommittal.
Pang Tong smiled and said: "If the time is good enough, so what if we send troops now?"
Huh?
Pan Jun looked at Pang Tong with some confusion.
How come the military advisor was convinced after talking to His Highness for a few days?
Don't the military advisors know that now is not the time to attack Wu?
"hehe."
"Don't disturb me when I am engaged. When I should fight, I will fight. Just take care of the logistics. If there is a fight, it will be a quick fight. Don't worry about it."
Liu Chan just chuckled and said: "I want to see if Chen Bing Jiangxia is afraid of me or not."
Pan Jun's expression was slightly different, but he still nodded.
"If we don't miss the spring plowing, this battle may be fought."
Fighting is a waste of money and food.
If the farming season is further delayed, wouldn’t Gangneung’s development over the past year be in vain?
This was something Pan Jun couldn't accept.
"Today is the time for field hunting. I want to lead the talents of Jingzhou and the students of the martial arts hall to hunt for Longshan together! I wonder if anyone can recommend me for this job?"
Can you hunt Longshan?
Pang Tong's originally smiling expression suddenly froze.
He glanced at Liu Chan suspiciously, and when he saw the latter's expression remained unchanged, he knew that he was overthinking it.
that kind of thing
how could be?
As soon as Pan Jun heard about Huilongshan, he obviously became energetic.
Nothing else.
His Highness hunts in Longshan, so he will naturally take the exams for the children of Jingzhou. If a few more people are valued, wouldn't he, a Jingzhou native, have more weight in His Highness's shogunate?
When it comes to fighting, Pan Jun is not that enthusiastic.
After all, if he doesn't have troops in his hands, even if he fights a war, he won't get much credit. On the contrary, fighting, collecting taxes, transporting supplies, and recruiting civilians will harm his interests.
But when the children of Jingzhou become officials, they obviously don't have this trouble.
Pan Jun had a slight understanding in his heart. Perhaps, this was His Highness's way of appeasing people's hearts.
There is great resistance to defeating Wu, but His Highness still wants to defeat Wu. It seems that the way to deal with it is to let the children of Jingzhou serve as officials.
"In the past year, I have met many talented scholars, and I am about to recommend them to His Highness! This is the list of them."
Pan Jun smiled and handed over the silk with his name written all over it.
Meeting the talented people in Jingzhou is also spreading His Highness's influence.
As far as Pan Jun knew, those Jingzhou disciples who entered the martial arts hall all had an almost fanatical admiration for His Royal Highness.
With people's hearts like this, Pan Jun naturally had no choice but to surrender and put some unrealistic ideas behind him.
Winter.
The sky and the earth are still completely white.
But at the foot of Longshan Mountain, it was very lively.
Many wild beasts were running wildly across the land, and behind them were the talented young men of Jingzhou riding war horses.
"King Biao is mine, no one can compete with me!"
Immediately, someone rode in front, holding a bow in one hand and the reins in the other, and chased the herd.
"Brother Huang is getting older, so he'd better give this role to us younger brothers!"
"What are you talking about? Whoever shoots King Biao can go to His Highness to receive the reward. After talking face to face, he might be able to join the East Palace as an official!"
With noisy crowds, some armed with long bows or swords and guns, they all rushed toward the beasts.
In this winter, of course there are no so-called herds of beasts on Longshan Mountain outside Jiangling.
These herds of animals were put away in advance for the purpose of hunting for these talented people from Jingzhou.
Among the herds, there was an elk in a red robe, which was the king of the field hunt. If anyone could hunt this king, Liu Chan would not only receive a reward, but he would also receive him in person.
If there is a chance of winning, these Jingzhou disciples will naturally fight harder.
Prince Liu Chan, who organized this winter field hunt, was not in the camp at the foot of the mountain at the moment.
Someone asked: "Where has your Highness gone?"
The answer was: "I went to Longshan Academy of Sciences for an inspection."
The Longshan Academy of Sciences was established much earlier than the Chengdu Academy of Sciences.
certainly
Because the resources are not as good as those in Chengdu, development has been very slow.
What the Longshan Academy of Sciences is currently doing is research on hybrid horse breeds, hybrid rice, and farming methods and farming equipment.
As for the rest of the projects, such as steelmaking and cement, they are all placed in Chengdu.
After all, Chengdu is far away from Wei and Wu, and it is not easy for Wei and Wu to steal their troops.
There are people coming and going in Jiangling, merchants are constantly coming, and it is normal for a few young people to mix into Longshan.
but.
If someone comes to the Academy of Sciences to look for His Royal Highness, they will not be able to find him.
Someone asked: "Where has your Highness gone?"
He replied: "Your Highness is hunting in the fields at the foot of the mountain."
After going around and around, where did His Highness go?
The fact is: His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is in Longshan Temple.
There is basically no incense in Longshan Temple.
Because the pilgrims have been blocked at the bottom of the mountain.
Naturally, there is a reason to prevent the gap between Wei and Wu, but more importantly, it may be because of the people on the mountain.
Tsing Yi Ancient Buddha.
Gurgling water.
Setting foot here again will give Liu Chan a different feeling.
Entering the hall, I saw a plump figure kneeling on a futon under the golden Buddha statue.
Liu Gongsi swore that he really came to Longshan to worship Buddha.

There is another chapter tonight.
