People’s hearts are not attached to them

evening.

The sun is setting in the west, night is falling, and the night wind in early spring is so cold that it makes people shiver.

In the moonless night, only a few lights flickered in the temporary camp set up on Sheshan Mountain.

In the main tent of the camp.

Zhang Bao stood up and bowed to Liu Chan and said: "Sir, I am a rough man. Although I only know how to go into battle to kill the enemy, my father once told me that a gentleman does not stand behind a dangerous wall. Nowadays, people in Shu are confused.

, there are countless people who talk nonsense, and if you set up camp in Sheshan, wouldn't you be a target for others to attack?"

Zhang Bao was worried about Liu Chan's safety and didn't care whether Liu Chan was willing to listen, but he couldn't lose his duty as a courtier.

He cupped his hands and half-knelt down and said:

"Last year, Guanghan County's powerful Ma Tai Gaosheng and others rebelled. Under the roar, there were tens of thousands of people. The thieves were so fierce that they broke into the city and took down the stronghold. They were almost approaching Chengdu. If it weren't for Li Yan, the prefect of Qianwei, and Gao Ding Er

The people acted vigorously and resolutely, and the rebellion was stopped in time. Guanghan County is like this, how much worse is Chengdu?"

Liu Chan stood up and helped Zhang Bao, who was half-kneeling, up. He patted Zhang Bao on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Why don't I know the general's words?"

After Liu Chan helped Zhang Bao up, he said: "After all, my father has only been in Bashu for a short time, and since Liu Yan, there has been turmoil and disputes in Shu. The local powerful and Dongzhou scholars are almost fighting to the death. My father is a powerful foreign dragon, so he

Make Yizhou

The situation has become more complicated, and when we occupied Chengdu, we promised a large sum of money to seize all the treasures, and the people complained. Now there are clouds of war, and the consumption of food and grass is countless. There are many people in Chengdu who have different ideas, why don't I know?"

"Then why sir?"

Zhang Bao was helped up by Liu Chan, with a look of shock on his face.

"My father is on an expedition in Hanzhong, so Chengdu cannot be in chaos, Shu County cannot be in chaos, and Yizhou cannot be in chaos. Moreover, supplies must be continuously transported to Hanzhong, so as not to cause difficulties on the front line and distract the generals."

Although the current Liu Bei occupies Bashu, the foundation of his rule is not very solid.

When Liu Bei launched the war into Shu, "the troops were less than 10,000, the soldiers were not attached, the wild grains were resources, and the army had no baggage." Therefore, after the battle, Liu Bei's men suffered a lot of losses.

So much so that there were even rumors that "Liu Bei was dead" among Cao Wei.

In order to complete his victory in one battle, Liu Bei had no choice but to adopt the "carrot and stick" approach.

He first detained the family members of his officers and soldiers, and then "painted big cakes" for them and made heavy promises.

"At the beginning of the attack on Liu Zhang, I made a promise with the soldiers: 'If the matter is decided, everything in the treasury will be unforeseen.' When Chengdu was captured, the soldiers all gave up fighting and went to the treasures to compete for treasures."

However, Liu Bei soon discovered that the amount of supplies in the city's treasury was not enough to distribute rewards to his soldiers.

In order to fill this "gap", Liu Bei had no choice but to take more gold and silver from the city, which naturally affected the interests of the local people.

Even if the grain and silk looted by the soldiers are returned later, will the people of Chengdu still thank you?

Because Liu Bei did not think carefully beforehand, after the soldiers robbed the warehouse, the army was seriously short of supplies, so Liu Ba made a suggestion: make one hundred and five baht coins (one new coin is equal to one hundred old coins) to exploit

the wealth of the people.

Then he unified prices (inflation caused by one hundred and five baht) and let the government manage the market.

A few months later, the treasury was rich.

The one-hundred-five-baht coins coined by Liu Bei weighed eight baht, but they could be used as one hundred five-baht coins, so the currency obviously depreciated.

This is essentially a plunder of people's wealth.

In addition, in order to raise military expenditures, Liu Bei also introduced a series of economic policies, established the Salt Mansion, appointed the Salt Commander, and monopolized the management of salt and iron.

During the severe drought last year, Liu Bei implemented a total ban on alcohol. Anyone who had drinking utensils at home would be punished in the same way as winemakers.

Later, thanks to Jian Yong's clever and funny advice, those with drinking utensils were spared from punishment.

However, after all this trouble, the people of Yizhou were naturally very dissatisfied. Their money was reduced, they were no longer allowed to drink wine, and they monopolized salt and iron. Their lives were no longer good.

Therefore, after Cao Cao captured Hanzhong, Sima Yi and Liu Ye suggested that he take advantage of the situation to capture Shu. The reason was: "Liu Bei used deceptive force to capture Liu Zhang, but the Shu people did not surrender."

It can be seen that although Liu Bei gained Yizhou, he has not yet won the support of the Shu people.

Because of this, one of Liu Bei's first tasks after entering Shu was to gain the support of the local people and wealthy families.

For example, Liu Ba, who was born in Jingzhou and was well-known in Yizhou, refused Liu Bei's invitation many times and even humiliated Zhang Fei. However, under Zhuge Liang's persuasion, Liu Bei ignored the previous suspicion and appointed him more; and Xu Jing, this time

Xu Jing once had his heart set on the two masters, which aroused Liu Bei's disgust. However, under Fazheng's suggestion, Xu Jing was still appointed to a high official position with a generous salary.

Even at that time, Liu Bei married Wu Yi's sister.

At first, Wu Yi's sister was the wife of Liu Zhang's third brother, Liu Mao, but later Liu Mao died.

Liu Bei believed that he was of the same clan as Liu Mao, so it was against etiquette and law to turn his wife into his own.

However, Fazheng thought that it would be fine if Duke Wen of Jin married Huaiying, the wife of his nephew Duke Huai of Jin.

So Liu Bei married Mrs. Wu.

Huaiying's marriage to Duke Wen of Jin was actually a political marriage between Qin and Jin, and Liu Bei wanted to completely reassure Wu Yi and other Liu Zhang's old men through marriage. This was naturally also a political marriage.

In order to win people's hearts, Liu Bei was even willing to sacrifice himself.

But even so, people in Yizhou still did not completely surrender.

I don’t know how many powerful people like Ma Qin Gaosheng in Shu, but those who did not rebel, such as Chang Yu from Shu County, expressed their protest through prophecies and made many prophecies that were not conducive to unity, and many people believed him

If so, this will make people's hearts even more divided.

People's hearts are broken and it's hard to lead the team!

Later, Liu Bei was able to stabilize Yizhou and give the Shu Han 43 years of imperial rule. It was entirely because of the Battle of Hanzhong, when Guan Yu flooded seven armies and shocked China, and because civil servants and generals such as Zhuge Liang, Zhao Yun, Jiang Wei and others dedicated their all to the word loyalty.

live.

For Liu Chan now, if there are no variables in the Battle of Hanzhong, it will definitely be winnable.

But if it's just like in history, wouldn't he have traveled through time in vain?

Liu Chan has a great sense of time urgency.

After all, this year Liu Bei won the Battle of Hanzhong, and Guan Yu was powerful in China. But at the same time, this year was also the year when Guan Yu lost Maicheng and Jingzhou.

Liu Chan must use the limited time to integrate all aspects of Yizhou's forces and cultivate his own power, thereby gaining the ability to change the course of history!

This year, Yanhan is in unparalleled momentum, but it is also surrounded by crises.

Opportunities and crises coexist. Now that he has traveled through time, he naturally wants to change this ending.

Boss Cao, go with peace of mind!

I will accept your bronze bird stand.

Cao Pi, son, your wife is pretty good.

I will support your wife!

As for Sun Shiwan, he naturally wants to welcome his stepmother Sun Shangxiang back. After all, the land of Jiangdong is his stepmother's dowry!

If the world is united for a long time, it will be divided, and if it is divided for a long time, it will unite. As for the Sima family, it will definitely go aside.
