Three Kingdoms: I help Liu Bei grow thousands of miles

Zhuge Liang smiled and said, "This is the famous blue jade? Liang has heard of it for a long time."

Lan Tian bowed his hands and greeted him. Zhuge Liang seemed to talk more than last time. Sometimes he talked about the past and the present, and sometimes he talked about the current world. Whether intentionally or not, he asked Lan Tian to express his views.

After all, Lan Tian had thousands of years of experience, so his answer was so smooth, Zhuge Liang was amazed.

The two sang and harmonized like a bosom friend in a high mountain and flowing water, as if they were close friends spanning thousands of years.

"Mr. is a genius in the world, how can he be empty and old under Lin Quan? Although Bei does not try his best to help the Han Dynasty, I hope that Mr. will take the common people of the world into consideration and come out to help Bei." Liu Bei pleaded again.

Zhuge Liang pointed at Lantian, shook his head and sighed: "The general has great talents, I think he will be able to rule the world sooner or later, why invite this mountain villager?"

Lan Tian can understand, Zhou Yu is Ji Shengyu and He Shengliang, are you worried about Ji Shengliang and He Shengtian?

He hastily cupped his hands and said: "Although Tian has little wisdom, he has no general plan. I can farm and grow grain for the lord, but to plan and plan the world, you need a great talent like Mr...."

At this moment, Xu Shu also nodded in affirmation, Zhuge Liang laughed loudly and said: "Yuanzhi boasted that Ziyu's aura is extraordinary, and the test just now really lived up to his reputation, the lord is really a blessed person."

Master?Liu Bei's head was buzzing.

Lan Tian poked the dazed Liu Bei with his hand, happiness came too suddenly.

Zhuge Liang bowed his head and said: "Thanks to the kindness of the general's three visits, Liang is willing to do the work of a dog and a horse, and he will do his best until he dies..."

Chapter 74 The Plan of the Advisors

Although there were some twists and turns, Zhuge Liang still went out of the mountain after visiting the thatched cottage three times.

Compared with Lantian who only has some historical experience, Zhuge Liang is knowledgeable and far-sighted. When Liu Bei chatted with him, he was in a state of being a fan for a long time.

Although I didn't understand it, I was shocked.

After returning to Xinye, Xu Shu took the initiative to give up the post of military adviser just like Lan Tian. After repeated persuasion by Liu Bei, he had to be appointed as the deputy military adviser and Zhuge Liang as the main military adviser.

After Zhuge Liang took over the military administration, he wantonly accepted refugees from Xinye and even nearby counties and towns, and took them in to farm and farm. The original passive strategy was directly transformed into an active strategy.

Zhuge Liang is very clear that the fight for the world is about hard power, and the competition is about the productivity of each family. No matter how brave the general, no matter how strong the soldier, no matter how clever the strategy is, it is still useless without sufficient supplies.

Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang have spent more time together than Guan Zhang, and they often say to others: like a fish in water.

Due to the close relationship between the two, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were very unhappy, so that they often found Lan Tian for a drink.

At the beginning of April, Zhang Fei came to Lan Tian's house with wine again, and just happened to meet him about to go out, so he asked to stay, "Where is Ziyu going? I bought a good wine, let's have a taste?"

"Let's drink later, where is my brother-in-law?" Lan Tian asked.

"Where else can I go? I went out with Shui early in the morning. I heard it was to Dengjiazhuang." Zhang Fei looked displeased.

Lan Tian said to himself: "I often live in Xinye for a long time these days, and I don't know how Xiao Lizi's spring plowing is going."

"I don't think there is a problem. Ziyu, you have been teaching farming for so long, and my old Zhang has almost learned it." Zhang Fei complimented.

Lan Tian looked at the wine jar in Zhang Fei's arms and said, "Send the wine to the opposite side. I said that I can invite Kong Ming out of the mountain and have a shabu-shabu banquet. My house is too small, so I'd better hold a banquet in the county government office. You call your sister-in-law, and let's have a good time."

Zhang Fei was overjoyed and said, "That's great, I'll go prepare some drinks."

Gan Qian's daughter was a hundred days old, so she and Mi Zhen brought their respective daughters to the banquet. Xinye's main staff and generals gathered together, including Lu Lingqi, Xia Houjuan, Xu's mother and other family members who also set up cases.

There are two people sitting in front of each table, with copper tripods, wine utensils, raw meat, vegetables, cold dishes, dipping plates and other items on top, and a shabu-shabu banquet initiated by Lantian is lively.

Shabu-shabu was originally only popular among a few people in Xinye, but now everyone tastes it in the temple and thinks it tastes better than stewing, and it is delicious when paired with the dipping dish made by Lantian.

After several rounds of toasting, small groups slowly began to form in the hall. Generals such as Guan Zhangzhao mainly drank and ate meat, while Lan Tian, ​​Zhuge Liang and Xu Shu sat around to discuss the situation.

Zhuge Liang said: "My lord and I went to Dengjiazhuang today. Ziyu farmed the fields very well. The yield per mu of land should be much higher than that of ordinary farmers, right?"

Lan Tian nodded and said, "Agriculture is like running an army. There are ways to do it. If you take care of it carefully, you will definitely gain something."

"There is a great opportunity for the lord to help the Han family if you have Ziyu farming grain. Now we should recruit refugees widely. If there is food, there will be people, and there will be soldiers if there are people." Zhuge Liang sighed.

"If it weren't for Liu Jingsheng's interference, Xinye would have farmed a large area long ago. Ziyu is more cautious than you." Xu Shu shook his head.

Zhuge Liang: "Ziyu is worried that Liu Biao will be suspicious? This person has a good reputation for virtue. After the Jiang Xia incident, even if he is afraid of the lord, he should not make things difficult."

Lan Tian shook his head and said, "Although Liu Jingsheng won't be in trouble anymore, Xinye is a tiny place after all. After Yuan Shao's death, Hebei will return to Cao Cao sooner or later. Once the north is pacified, Jingzhou will be in danger. Xinye is the northern gate of Xiangyang, so isn't it the first to bear the brunt?"

"Liu Biao is old, and he probably won't live for a few years. We can only farm to support the people, and we can only hope that we will be more tenacious with the Yuan brothers, otherwise we will not be able to take Jingzhou with the Xinye people." Zhuge Liang analyzed.

Lan Tian: "We must find a way to win a place for the Lord to establish a business."

"Guanzhong to the north of Nanyang and Runan to the east are Cao Cao's territories. Even if we take advantage of Cao Cao's battle with the Yuan family to occupy Dezhou County with the people of Xinye, it is really difficult to hold it. This will make Sun Quan and Ma Teng Waiting for others to reap the benefits. Only Zhang Lu in Hanzhong and Liu Zhang in Xichuan can make plans, but the mountains are high and the roads are far away..." Zhuge Liang shook his head.

"What do you think of Jing Nan?" Lan Tian asked suddenly.

After hearing this, Zhuge Liang and Xu Shu wondered that there is still Nanjun between the four Jingnan counties and Xinye.

"What does Ziyu mean?" Zhuge Liang asked curiously.

"I thought Xinye was completely unqualified for stable development. If you want to go north to the Central Plains at this time, you can marry Sun Quan and others as Kong Ming said. If you continue to grow grain in Xinye, Cao's army will go south in the future. Bubbles. The four counties in Jingnan are blocked by the Yangtze River, so they are good places for development." Lan Tian said.

"Not to mention how wild Jingnan is, if we send troops to take it, how can Liu Biao turn a deaf ear to it?" Xu Shu worried.

Zhuge Liang looked at Lantian suspiciously, "Since Ziyu said this, could it be that there is some clever plan?"

"It's impossible to send troops to fetch it, but it's different when Liu Biao takes the initiative to dispatch it." Lan Tian said.

"Liu Biao has always been afraid of the lord, so how could he take the initiative to dispatch?" Xu Shu asked.

"This requires Kong Ming's efforts." Lan Tian said meaningfully.

Zhuge Liang was bewildered?My heart said how should I contribute?

Lan Tian continued: "Liu Biao is old and feeble. Jingzhou is now controlled by Cai, Kuai and others. The relationship between your uncle and Liu Biao and Cai Mao is very unusual. Pang Degong also called you Crouching Dragon. Kongming, you can start with them and think about it from behind. To find ways to."

How smart Zhuge Liang is, he immediately understood that Lan Tian asked him to engage in nepotism and his wife's diplomacy. Although he had used these relationships to improve his reputation, he had no intention of relying on it. seek……"

Lan Tian smiled and said: "History is written by the victor. As long as the goal can be achieved, it is a good strategy regardless of whether it is high or low. There is a saying in my hometown that 'corrupt officials are evil, and honest officials are even more evil'."

After hearing this, Xu Shu also persuaded: "Ziyu is right, Kong Ming, please think about it."

"Time waits for no one, Cao Cao doesn't have much time left for us..." Lan Tian reminded.

Zhuge Liang struggled for a long time before saying: "What an honest official is more treacherous than a corrupt one, Liang will try his best."

After the shabu-shabu banquet was over, Zhuge Liang went to Xiangyang under the escort of Zhao Yun. There was no need for Lan Tian to remind him about the following things. Mr. Wolong's resourcefulness was too high.

During two months, Zhuge Liang and Huang Chengyan had close contact with the Pang family, Huang family, and Cai family. There were gradually calls in Jingzhou to transfer Liu Bei away from Xinye, and Liu Biao was blown there by Mrs. Cai's pillow wind. .

Liu Biao called Kuai Yue, his adviser, and asked, "Liu Xuande recruited refugees in Xinye, and his momentum is growing day by day. How do you think we can stop it?"

Kuai Yue said: "After years of war in the north, refugees from Guanzhong and the Central Plains often fled to Jingzhou via Nanyang, and Xinye is at the heart of Nanyang. Only by transferring Liu Bei can we stop his growth."

"It's easier to ask the gods than to send them away, so where do you think you should be transferred?" Liu Biao asked with a blank eyebrow.

"Guiyang Changshi was killed by the barbarians a month ago, why not transfer Liu Bei to Guiyang to garrison?" Kuai Yue Shuoxu suggested.

Liu Biao, who was half lying down, sat up after hearing this, and looked at Kuai Yue, who once wanted to kill Liu Bei, why did this guy make such a suggestion?

Chapter 75 Drive Liu Bei, each has his own calculations

"Yidu made it clearer. Xuande is the shepherd of Yuzhou now. You want him to go to Guiyang to do the long history?" Liu Biao's head was buzzing. Recently, everyone was particularly interested in Nanyang, whether it was at the bedside or at the court. It seems that if Liu Bei continues to station in Xinye, it will collapse one day.

The county chief Shi is a county-level assistant official, who assists the prefect to control the soldiers and horses.

Kuai Yue explained: "Just like in Xinye, the post of chief historian is not crowned with the name of long history. Guiyang is a barbaric land, not only sparsely populated, but most of them are border people of the Baiyue nationality with strong folk customs. Liu Xuande’s going to Guiyang to fight against the barbarians will not only consume his new soldiers, but also have no refugees to recruit, and if he comes and goes twice, his threat will be resolved..."

Liu Biao was shocked when he heard this, and thought that Kuai Yue's method is very good, but he said, "I'm worried that Zhao Fan won't be able to suppress Xuande..."

Kuai Yue added: "Young Master Liu Pan is in You County. If Liu Bei really has evil intentions, it will be easier to contain him."

"It can be said that Yidu has no strategy left, but Degui has always hated Xuande, so he might not let him go to Guiyang easily..." Liu Biao said.

"In the face of big right and wrong, De Gui is still old and prudent. I will say it for my lord. My lord needs to send someone to negotiate with Liu Xuande." Kuai Yue said.

Liu Biao nodded and said, "I'll let Uncle Yi go for a walk."

Not only would Cai Mao not stop him, but he was also willing to send warships to help Liu Bei transport supplies. In addition to Kuai Yue's conspiracy, more importantly, it was the family's interest trend.

Cai, Kuai, Pang, and Huang, the reason why they joined forces to promote this matter, is entirely because of the fertile land reclaimed by Lantian in Xinye.

The recent news shows that the land in Xinye is fertile and the grain output is extremely high, which is why Liu Bei is so confident. Once Liu Bei is transferred, they can divide up the land.

Yiji came to Xinye in June and told Liu Bei about Liu Biao's arrangement.

Liu Bei was a little at a loss after hearing this, because recently through Zhuge Liang's measures, Xinye has gradually become hopeful, and he was a little resistant from the bottom of his heart when he asked himself to go to Guiyang County Governor Shi. Are there refugees to take in?

Liu Bei summoned Zhuge Liang, Xu Shu, Lan Tian and others to discuss, only to realize that this was done by his advisers.

"Xinye is a bit smaller, but it is located at the throat of several prefectures. Now Kongming gathers the refugees, and Ziyu farms the fields to grow grain. It will only take a few years to reach the Central Plains. If we really go to Guiyang, we will have to cultivate wasteland and Yu Kou, can you still go north to the Central Plains?" Liu Bei worried.

Zhuge Liang: "My lord, why have you forgotten Liang's plan to divide the world in Longzhong? No matter how many years my lord has recuperated in Xinye, it is impossible to invade the Central Plains with this county. Let Ziyu tell you the benefits of going to Guiyang. It was he who first proposed to seek Jingnan."

Lan Tian pointed to the map hanging on the wall and said: "Cao Cao will surely go south when he pacifies Hebei, now we must either take Jingzhou first, or temporarily avoid Cao Cao's sharp edge.

Now it is not enough to take Xichuan with the people of Xinye. We went to the south of Jingnan to cultivate grain and train soldiers. Naturally, Liu Biao and Sun Quan resisted when Cao Cao went south. Dividing the world can be easily achieved. "

"Jingnan is mostly a barren land. The Baiyue frontier people are extremely tough. Xinye only has more than [-] troops. If they are exhausted in the suppression of the rebellion, Liu Jingsheng will not send them again. At that time, there will be nowhere to recruit new soldiers, and it will be difficult to farm and grow food. It may not be safe..." Liu Bei said.

Lan Tian smiled and said: "Although the Baiyue in the frontier is tough, they are good at bow and arrow. If they are included in the army, they can be as good as ten. The so-called soldiers are good but not many. Why should brother-in-law worry about not having enough soldiers?"

Liu Bei shook his head and said, "Ziyu's thinking is too simple. These Baiyue people are extremely difficult to tame. Before Sun Quan annihilated Huangzu's water army and wanted to break through Xiakou, it was because of the Shanyue rebellion in the rear that he withdrew."

Lan Tian looked at Zhuge Liang, said to himself that you have experience in this job, and then said meaningfully: "Brother-in-law has Kong Ming to help, taming the barbarians should not be a problem."

Zhuge Liang:? ? ?

"Kong Ming, Yuan Zhi, is this plan feasible?" Liu Bei continued to ask.

Now that the arrow is on the string, it's okay to say no, and Lan Tian really has a clear analysis.

Seeing everyone nodding, Liu Bei got up and said, "Then I'll go and reply to Uncle Ji."

"Brother-in-law, it can be said that we have to prepare for some time and leave after the summer harvest is over." Lan Tian reminded.

"Alright." Liu Bei turned and went out.

After Liu Bei left, Xu Shu said with a smile, "Ziyu is really dedicated to her duty."

Zhuge Liang said: "Food is the foundation of the people. Although these fields have been divided up, we have to take the food away."

Lan Tian shook his head and said, "This season's harvest will be partly given away."

"Give it away?" Zhuge Liang (Xu Shu) said in unison.

"Not only do we have to lead our troops south, but we also have to take away these farmers. If we don't leave something for others, how can those rich people who speak for me give up?" Lan Tian analyzed.

Zhuge Liang and Xu Shu were startled at the same time, thinking how old is this Lan Ziyu?He actually figured out people's hearts so accurately.

After agreeing to move to Guiyang County, the whole Xinye moved. Except for the house and land, the rest of the pots and pans had to be taken.

Lan Tian and Lu Lingqi came to Dengjiazhuang to mobilize. After all, they left their hometowns for long-distance raids, and some people missed their homeland. to other places.

Surprisingly, both the newly attached refugees and the original tenants of Dengjiazhuang all followed Lantian to Guiyang, where they had a full meal, and these villagers wanted to continue to have a full meal.

"Your family will also go with us? Can you, a married son-in-law, make the decision for the old owner?" Lan Tian asked Li Yang.

Li Yang scratched his head and said, "I'm very good at farming now, and I can talk at home, and my uncle admires you so much..."

"Okay, the journey is tiring, and you must be prepared to suffer." Lan Tian reminded.

Li Yang patted his chest and said: "We survived from starvation to death, so what if we suffer a little bit now? But I heard that we can go by water, can my uncle and little Dengzi go by boat?"

"Don't worry, I will arrange for the old and weak women and children to take a boat..."

Before Lan Tian finished speaking, Lu Lingqi suddenly covered her mouth and ran away.

"Xiao Jun, what's wrong with you?" Lan Tian chased after her and found Lu Lingqi retching.

Lu Lingqi shook her head and said: "I don't know what's wrong, it's often like this recently, did you eat something bad?"

At this time Li Yang smiled and said: "Congratulations to the young master, the sister-in-law must be pregnant, Zhuo Jing was also like this last year."

Lan Tian was stunned in place. He and Lu Lingqi had been married for some time, and the life of the husband and wife was very harmonious, but there was no movement in the other's stomach.

I thought it was some kind of sequelae of time travel, but now it seems that this is not the case. It is really a good meal without fear of being late.

Lu Lingqi's face turned red when she heard this, and she turned to lead the horse.

"Where are you going, Jun?" Lan Tian asked nervously.

"I'm going back to the city to find my sister..." Lu Lingqi said shyly, she had been waiting for this day for a long time.

Lan Tian knew that she was going to ask Elder Sister about her daughter, but he frowned and said, "How can I trust you to ride a horse with your current state? Little Li, find a way to find me a carriage."

"only."
