Chapter 40 The fantasy of unifying the state


Chapter 40 The fantasy of unifying the state

Liu Bei is the lord of a state and the first commander of the army. It is simply a fantasy for Liu Feng to bypass him in planning such a large operation.

Any action requires Liu Bei's cooperation in order to maximize one's own strength.

After hearing Liu Feng's plan, Liu Bei was so shocked that he couldn't close his mouth and murmured to himself: "This plan is so bad... and so clever."

Liu Feng In general, his plan was to use snow salt, sugar, and money to purchase grain from Zang Ba's territory before the autumn harvest.

Because the autumn harvest is around the corner, I believe that powerful households in Kaiyang and other places will be happy to sell any excess grain at home in exchange for money and free up storage space for the new grain that is about to mature.

When the grain harvest was almost done, Liu Beijun sent troops before the autumn harvest grain in Kaiyang and other places was put into the warehouse, directly blocking Zang Ba in the city. Yangqiu's food is military food, and it is eaten by the enemy.

It can be said to kill two birds with one stone.

When the time comes, Zang Ba, who has no food, will not be able to defend the city at all.

The alternative to surrender is to starve to death.

Even if Zang Ba stubbornly resists, it won't be delayed for long, and it is expected to be completely resolved within the year.

What's more, Zang Ba in history was quite smooth and did not have much ambition. Liu Feng was confident enough to successfully persuade the opponent to surrender.

After listening to Liu Feng's complete plan, Liu Bei was shocked.

After all, although Brother Big Ear has been able to fight for a long time, he is famous for fighting in formations. This is because the brothers are not afraid of death, have good martial arts skills, and have great strength.

When it comes to out-of-the-brain strategies, he has only mastered seven or six of his apertures so far, so he would never have thought of such a sinister plan.

However, Liu Bei still found a flaw: "Feng'er, what should we do if Zang Ba refuses to sell grain?"

Liu Feng laughed loudly, and then explained to Liu Bei: "Zang Ba But how can a mere local powerful see through my plan? Besides, this is a conspiracy. Even if Zang Ba sees through it, he will not be able to break it.

Father, please note that Zang Ba, Sun Guan, Chang Xi and others will not be able to break it. , who is called a monarch and is actually an ally, it is difficult for him to really interfere in the private affairs of his subordinates.

Therefore, even if Zang Ba does not sell food, how can Chang Xi, Sun Guan and others endure it? br>
At that time, it would be better if Zang Ba did not interfere. If he interfered with Chang Xi Sun Guan selling grain, I am afraid it would only arouse their suspicion

It should be noted that Zang Ba would not dare to do such a thing if he was smarter than killing his parents. "

Liu Bei suddenly realized that the more he looked at it, the more he felt that this plan was feasible and foolproof.

Liu Feng made his final concluding statement: "Father, the battle at Langya was the first time you took control of Xuzhou. In the first battle, we must hit the target with one blow and establish our authority in the East China Sea. "

"What Feng'er said is very reasonable. "

Liu Bei stared at Liu Feng with longing in his eyes: "What about after conquering Langya County? ”

"At that time, my father can take advantage of the prestige of victory and go south to Guangling, force Yuan Sui to bow his head, and unify the state."

Remembering what he said before, Liu Bei couldn't help asking: "Feng'er, have you ever done this before? He said that Guangling cannot be touched, so why can he go south to Guangling now? "

Liu Feng replied with a smile: "This time, that time, even if Yuan Sui still refuses to tell his father. Lower your head, Zhang Menggao may have died in Yanzhou.

Since Zhang Menggao is dead, what fault would his father have in taking control of the counties under his jurisdiction? Even if Zhang Menggao is lucky enough to survive, his father just goes south to Guangling. , in preparation for Yuan Shu's northern invasion, Yuan Sui is not very strong in character and will not dare to fight against his father.

At that time, the army will enter the city, and his father will adjust the personnel in the state pastoral affairs and appoint talented people. Guangling can enter. The father is in the palm of his hand.”

Liu Bei suddenly realized this and was so happy that he could not help but think of the beautiful scene of truly unifying Xuzhou. More than a hundred miles east of Tancheng, in Qu County, where the Mi family of the East China Sea is located, Mi Fang Mi Zifang, the younger brother of the head of the Mi family, is reading a silk book sent back by his brother Mi Zhu, who was escorted by soldiers.

Mi Fang is similar to his brother Mi Zhu. They are both gentle and elegant Confucian scholars who are good at archery.

It’s just that compared to Mi Zhu’s introversion, Mi Fang is more unrestrained, has a more outgoing personality and can’t hold her breath.

While reading the letter, Mi Fang kept frowning.

It's no wonder that he has this expression. The amount of supplies Mi Zhu promised Liu Feng was really too huge.

It’s okay to say that all kinds of supplies can be collected at home. Even if they are a little short, it doesn’t matter. As long as they get along with the powerful nobles in Qu County, they will give the Mi family a face. Help make up for the shortfall.

It’s just that the 100,000 dan of food is too scary. There is indeed nearly 300,000 dan of new food in the Mi family’s mansion, but this is enough for tens of thousands of people in the Mi family for a year.

Take away a third of it in one breath. If something happens, it will be a big trouble.

It wasn’t until the content about snow salt and rock sugar appeared that Mi Fang’s expression turned from hesitant to doubtful.

But when he opened the wooden box containing snow salt and rock sugar that arrived with the letter, he was completely shocked.

Everything my brother said is true?

Mi Fang, who was a little hesitant about following her brother's instructions, directly picked up the wooden box and the letter and headed towards the backyard.

Mi Zhu and Mi Fang's father Mi Zeng is still alive. After he turned sixty, he completely retired and entrusted all the family affairs to his eldest son Mi Zhu, and let his second son Mi Fang assist his eldest son in running the business.

As for himself, he completely lived in seclusion, staying in the mansion in the backyard of his home, and enjoying his old age.

This Fulou is four stories high and a hundred paces in circumference. It is one of the tallest buildings in Quxian City. Standing on the top of the building, you can see beyond the county wall and overlook the scenery outside the city.

When the Mi family built this building, it was said that they spent a total of 20 million yuan, and it was named Fulou by Mi Zeng. The interior of the building is beautifully decorated, with six to eight rooms on each floor. There is also an attic on the top of the fourth floor where you can climb up and look far.

Mi Fang trotted all the way, and the servants who were watching were a little frightened. I don’t know what could make Mi Fang, the second head of the family, so anxious.

When they arrived at the Fulou where Mi Zeng lived in seclusion, Mi Fang knocked on the door and climbed up the stairs.

At this time, his father Mi Zeng, accompanied by a girl with picturesque features and bright eyes, was leisurely drinking a small drink and looking at the scenery in the distance.

All the windows on the top floor were opened, and the interior was wrapped in a silk tent, leaving only the side facing the mountain view exposed.

This can not only block the cold winter wind, but also allow the rice steamer to be heated on the stove and enjoy the snowy scenery of distant mountains in winter without feeling cold.

Hearing the noise coming from downstairs, Mi Zeng, who was smiling happily in the company of the girl, turned away and looked away.

After seeing clearly that it was Mi Fang who came up, Mi Zeng showed a smile again and scolded with a smile: "Zifang, how many times have I told you as a father, you must be steady and not frivolous. Especially especially Although we business people need to be decisive when making decisions, we must think carefully before making decisions and not act hastily. "

Ask for further education, ask for investment, ask for monthly votes, and ask for rewards.

Special thanks to everyone who gave tips and voted for me. I will thank you one by one when I finish the manuscript.

First of all, thank you very much to all the readers who have supported me.
