Liu Xian was pushing back,, Guan Yu saw this and was busy drinking:
"Third brother, don't be rude! The consigliere's body and bones are weak, and the march is hard, so he needs to get some rest!"
Liu Xian saw Guan Yu to speak to himself, immediately laughed and said.
"General Guan has not seen you for a few days, you still have the same elegance!"
"Hehe..."
Guan Yu smiled faintly and gently stroked his beard, saying:
"Consigliere need not be polite, call me by name!"
Liu Bei watched from the sidelines and was more than happy to smile. If it was a time of prosperity, generals and prime ministers making nice was the last thing the king wanted to see. But now the chaotic world, for the human king, the most happy to see, is the general and the prime minister and! Only the civil and military power, can be used in one place. Now Guan Yu and Liu Xian reconciliation, is exactly the thing he can not wait for!
He went forward to pull Guan Yu and Liu Xian and said:
"Come on, second brother, Liu Xian, and follow me into this Guangling to see!"
At that moment, a large group of people and horses toward the city of Guangling. Liu Bei traveling on the road, Guan Yu on the left, Liu Xian on the right, a civil and a military, very happy! All the way to the Princely Establishments, Liu Bei simply let Chen Deng to arrange trivial matters, he was in the House opened a meeting. This time, the city of Guangling (Yangzhou City, Jiangsu Province) has a lot of harvest, everything needs to be Liu Bei to make decisions.
The first to be dealt with was Zhang Xun. He was pressed into the hall, neatly groomed and not mistreated. Seeing Liu Bei, Zhang Xun smiled bitterly and said, "The defeated general Qiao Lei, meet Envoy Liu!"
In fact, Zhang Xun was originally to return to Yuan Shu, but I do not know whether the rumors spread that Zhang Xun died in Guangling or Yuan Shu was originally to use Zhang Xun to please Liu Bei, in any case, did not come to want to go.
Seeing this, Liu Bei hurriedly got up to untie Zhang Xun's rope and said:
"General Zhang need not be polite! These past few days when Bei didn't arrive, General Zhang has suffered!"
Zhang Xun thought Liu Bei would kill him to vent his anger, but did not expect to be treated with such courtesy, and was immediately flattered, saying.
"I'm just a defeated general, but Liu Bei is so terrified!"
Liu Bei said in a broad voice:
"Victory and defeat is a common thing in the military, don't worry about it! I have long heard that there is a general named Zhang Xun under Yuan Highway's account, who is very resourceful and brave! I've seen him today, and I've seen his style!"
Zhang Xun said in shame: "I was stationed in Guangling, I wanted to defeat you, but I didn't want to be crushed, I didn't think otherwise, now you treat me like this, how can I be embarrassed!"
Liu Xian saw the situation, laughed:
"Since the Lord and General so, may be General into my army, or to achieve some success in battle ah!"
Zhang Xun heard a stunned, looked at Liu Bei, but saw Liu Bei eyes extremely sincere look at him and said.
"I don't know if you can help me?"
"This..."
Zhang Xun said:
"General Yuan has recognized me, if I vote for you, I will be against General Yuan, please let me refuse!"
When Liu Bei heard this, his brows knitted, and he was a bit hard to deal with. Liu Xian saw, laughed:
"This matter will be discussed again, I think these days in the prison, general is also not good, and go down to repair some, think about it before it is not too late!"
Not waiting for Zhang Xun refused, he said in a loud voice:
"Come on, send General Zhang down to rest!"
After Zhang Xun was sent away, Zhang Fei angrily said:
"This guy, doesn't know what's good for him, what's the point of keeping him!"
Liu Bei, on the other hand, said thoughtfully:
"I see Liu Bei's action, seems to have other intentions? "
Liu Xian said with a slight smile:
"This Zhang Xun and Yuan Shu army bridge is a close friend, and bridge is Yangzhou noble family, and the late lieutenant bridge Xuan have relatives, keep him down, in the future to seize Jiangdong and attack Yuan Shu when, will be useful! In addition, this person is quite capable, right now the Lord just lack of manpower, can one more is one!"
Liu Bei nodded and said:
"What Liu Bei said is very true!"
At this very moment, Mi Fang violently said in alarm:
"Lord wants to go south to seize Jiangdong?"
His words out, but see Liu Guanzhang and Yun Yi are face as usual, can not help but froze. Combined with such a big strategy, only their own brothers still do not know? Liu Xian immediately came out and laughed:
"This south to Jiangdong strategy, is a few days ago the Lord decided in my home, today has captured the Guangling, to Jiangdong (mainly refers to the southeast region of the Yangtze River) the time has come, just to say out for everyone to discuss the discussion!"
Although his words are discussion, in fact, Liu Bei has long given Guan Yu Zhang Fei through the wind. Now said out, just notify the Mi brothers just! When Mi Fang saw this, he subconsciously looked at Mi Zhu. But he saw Mi Zhu with a straight face, got up and arched his hand and said.
"Lord, if Lord wants to take over Jiangdong, I am afraid that there are not enough soldiers! We are willing to offer another 10,000 gold, 5,000 domestic servants, 2,000 horses and horses, and a number of rations and vehicles to help your Lordship accomplish this!"
Mi Fang's eyes glared at his elder brother's words. Although his Mi family is rich, but this time, it is a bit too much! Almost half of the Mi family's assets!
However, Mi Fang is not the only one who is moved, there is also Liu Bei. Just see Liu Bei stood up, excitedly said:
"You treat me so well, how can I fail you!"
With these supplies funded by Mi Zhu alone, it's perfectly fine for him to add another 10,000 troops! Liu Xian is also secretly nodding his head at the side. This Mi Zhu is really a complete speculator, now Liu Bei has not yet made a fortune, he dares to invest fully. The world and which businessman can have this kind of vigor! Guan Yu Zhang Fei is also secretly nodding more than, are marveling at the vigor of this Mi Zhu.
Liu Bei was excited for a while and announced.
"This time our army captured Guangling, all of you have the credit, I am here to discuss the merits and rewards, and also arrange the future personnel. This time we retired to Haixi, Mi's financial support, so that our army can reorganize the king's prestige, credit is not lost! Therefore, Mi Zhu is appointed as the deputy provincial governor of Xuzhou and the prefectural-level governor of Xiapi! Mi Fang will be the commander of the brigade, and will be at the disposal of the army."
At this time, Liu Bei's official position was General Who Fortifies the East; he was second to the General of the Four Expeditions, and was in charge of the four states of Qing, Yanzhou, Xu, and Yang, and was stationed in Yangzhou, so theoretically, it was impossible to appoint a deputy provincial. Theoretically, it is not possible to appoint a deputy provincial. However, now that the court is in chaos, it is natural to verbalize and count. This time he is going to Jiangdong, the only foundation is Guangling County and Xiapi County, but appointed Mi Zhu as the governor of Xiapi County, which can be seen the importance of Mi Zhu!
Mi Zhu immediately made a long bow and said:
"Thank you Lord, I will fulfill my mission!"
Liu Bei nodded and looked at Guan Yu and said:
"Second brother, I recognize you as Guangling Lieutenant, after I leave, fully responsible for the defense of Guangling County, be sure to hold this foundation!"
Guan Yu said in a deep voice.
"Don't worry big brother, with me here, Guangling will be safe!"
"Chen Deng, who was instrumental in helping us take over Xiapi and has a lot of experience in governing Guangling, will be the County Governor of Guangling."
Chen Deng originally stayed out of the battle for the sake of his family, and when he was told this, his old face blushed, so he said, "Thank you Lord, Deng will be loyal this time and govern Guangling County well."
After arranging for Guangling, Liu Bei looked at Zhang Fei again and said:
"Third brother, I recognize you as a subordinate colonel, and you will accompany me on this expedition to attack the rebellious ministers of Jiangdong!"
Zhang Fei slapped his chest and said:
"Big brother don't worry, with me here, the Jiangdong group of thieves will hold their heads and run away!"
"Uh-huh."
Next Liu Bei looked at the newly appointed Chen Qun trio: "Chen Changwen was originally my previous Yuzhou Buyeo (deputy provincial), now I appoint you to continue to be my Guangling Buyeo, Chen Jiao, Dai Gan as Gongcao."
The three men said, "Thank you, Lord."
Liu Bei ordered again:
"Quickly repair a letter to Minister Chang, saying that I appoint him as the County Taishan County (in present-day Shandong Province) guard, and give him a hundred gold."
After saying this, Liu Bei then looked at Liu Xian and said in a loud voice: "Consigliere Liu Xian, first helped our army to get out of the ambush, and then offered his advice a few times to help our army out of danger, and skillfully took Xiapi, and this time the capture of Guangling is the first credit! Here, I hereby appoint Liu Xian as the military counselor, and also as a lieutenant general ((archaic) position title within the old imperial system; a commander of the palace guards), give gold hundred gold, this expedition, if I am not there, the consigliere can be full discretion! No one may disobey!"
When these words came out, the whole hall was shocked.
