Chapter 623 Stupid brother
Liu Bei dared to trust his subordinates like this, of course he also had his own confidence.

He believed in his subordinates, believed that they could complete the tasks he entrusted to them, and believed that they would not dereliction of duty.

If Zhuge Liang had a little more trust in Jiang Wan, Fei Yi and others, or had a less sense of responsibility, he might have lived a few more years.

But judging from the degree of internal struggle in the Shu Han at that time...

If he doesn't do his best, how can he just die?

Fortunately, this time, Zhuge Liang didn't need to work so hard.

As early as when Liu Yan went to Xuzhou to be a shepherd in Xuzhou, Liu Bei sent people to Xuzhou to investigate the situation of the Zhuge family at the same time. Later, he learned that the situation of the Zhuge family was relatively stable, and several members of the family were serving under Liu Yan.

It's just that Liu Yan became more and more self-reliant in his work. During the large-scale massacre of local tyrants in Xuzhou, Liu Yan also made the locals under him distrust him, so he left Liu Yan on a large scale. Zhuge Xuan was one of them.

However, there was no great chaos in Xuzhou. Liu Yan also resigned quickly and was replaced by Dong Zhuo. The chaos in Xuzhou mainly occurred in the south, and the state of Langya in the north was actually relatively stable. move.

After Dong Zhuo was transferred, Liu Bei asked him to call Zhuge Xuanbi, who was idle at home to teach his children, to work in the state government and give him a job so that he and the Zhuge family could stay in Xuzhou and develop without running away.

At the same time, Liu Bei learned that Zhuge Liang, who was 13 years old at the time, had entered the newly established Xuzhou Zhou Middle School with his brothers, and was working hard with the goal of entering Taixue three years later.

In this regard, Liu Bei did not intervene too much.

Zhuge Liang's life course has been changed by him. He will no longer go south with Zhuge Xuan, will no longer be displaced and dependent on others, and will lack such a not-so-good life journey.

But Liu Bei believes that gold will always shine. Zhuge Liang's later achievements have little to do with his ups and downs in his youth. Suffering is suffering, and there is no meaning of growth. The key lies in people.

Zhuge Liang is a genius in the true sense, a genius who will be perfect if he is given room to develop. Liu Bei will give him enough time to study and accumulate, so that when he comes to Liu Bei, he will also bloom A dazzling brilliance.

If there is any brilliant existence in the troubled times of the Three Kingdoms, it is the pair of Uncle Liu Huang and Prime Minister Zhuge. These two people are the most dazzling torches in the entire world shrouded in black mist.

He is looking forward to Zhuge Liang's growth, and he is looking forward to Zhuge Liang coming to him.

Of course, not only Zhuge Liang, he also hopes that more outstanding young people will grow up in this era changed by him, come to him together, and become his help.

He tried his best to reverse the troubled times at the end of the Han Dynasty, and tried his best to prevent the era of great division that should have occurred, but he knew very well that this was temporary.

If he cannot complete a real redistribution of wealth within his lifetime, then the day he dies will be the time when history returns to the right track.

He can't do this alone, he needs to work with everyone.

The subordinates in the General's Mansion are what he mainly relies on at present, and in fact, the General's Mansion is indeed functioning well.

Man Chong is not here, and Cheng Yu is the core of the operation here.

Cheng Yu demonstrated his strong administrative talent and handling ability in this operation. It can be said that Cheng Yu was actually operating a series of preparations for the battle of Bingzhou University. Liu Bei only mentioned a theme, and the rest of the details were handled. It was all operated by the General's Mansion led by Cheng Yu.

Cheng Yu is not young, but he has very little experience as an official. People who don't know him are puzzled by Liu Bei's appointment of Cheng Yu to take over Man Chong's duties after Man Chong left. It is generally believed that Cheng Yu, who does not have enough experience, cannot afford it. this post.

But Cheng Yu, who is in his 40s, slapped everyone in the face with his actual actions.

In addition to Cheng Yu, Chen Qun, Zhong Yao, Wang Shang, Qin Mi and other officials of the general's government also performed their duties, fully displaying their powerful governance capabilities.

At this stage, the operation of the General's Mansion was very smooth, and all the logistical matters for the Battle of Bingzhou were carried out smoothly according to Cheng Yu's plan. The most idle person.

He only needs to issue orders, and all the rest will be done by his subordinates.

From time to time, Liu Bei checked the situation on their side to see how it was running and whether there were any mistakes. The main work was left to these subordinates, and he himself took a little time to spend with his family.

Just like in Liangzhou back then.

However, the current situation is different. Back then, the Liangzhou team’s ability to govern was overflowing, but now the General’s Mansion is far from overflowing. In other words, the entire Luoyang court has not yet completed its transformation, and it is not a business-oriented court. .

Of course, this is also a matter of time.

As February approached step by step, Liu Bei also slowly put away his relaxed mind, and began to reinvest most of his energy into the business, constantly coordinating everything on the front line and the rear, and doing necessary work for many key things. check.

And when the first day of February came, Liu Bei was also looking forward to it.

This is the first time that his subordinates have launched a military operation independently under the premise of breaking away from his direct command. The success of this military operation will determine the development of many things in the future.

Liu Bei didn't want his subordinates to stop fighting without him.

But obviously, his worries are superfluous, and his subordinates will also grow. From the reckless who can only fight and rush at the beginning, to the ability to fight with tactics later, they are also constantly growing and changing.

For example, in this operation, Guan Yu learned a lot about the Southern Huns and Huchuquan in advance. Before the military operation, he found Yu Fuluo and discussed with him how to deal with Huchuquan, hoping to eliminate Huchuquan at the least cost. kitchen spring.

Of course, Yu Fuluo had nothing to be unhappy about, he was willing to fully cooperate with Guan Yu, so under Guan Yu's design, Yu Fuluo invited Hu Chuquan to the tribe for the last discussion in the name of his brother, and wanted to persuade him to accept Luo for the last time. The order of the Yang court.

And Hu Chuquan's attitude is as tough as ever.

Don't have to talk.

They rebelled for freedom, and now they have to go back, so those who died died in vain?
Yu Fuluo sighed deeply.

Stupid brother, brother, I have tried my best to pull you ashore, but you just refuse to climb out.

I have done my best, so don't blame me for not talking about brotherhood.

So Yu Fuluo threw the cup as a sign, and Guan Yu's elite soldiers came out with their knives, hacking Hu Chuquan and his accompanying knights to death with their knives.

Hu Chuquan didn't expect him to die so hastily and rudely...

But it turns out that the simpler and more crude the method is, the easier it is to use and the better the effect.

Hu Chuquan died in a daze, and all the people he brought died, but his subordinates in Xihe County did not make any relevant preparations. The elite cavalry attacked and failed miserably, killing more than 3000 people.

In the end, those who still wanted to resist in this tribe were killed, and the rest became losers who did not dare to resist, became captives, and became slaves.

According to the agreement in advance, among these captives, Yu Fuluo can take away one-third, and Liu Bei is responsible for handling the remaining two-thirds, allowing them to atone for the sins they committed.

Yu Fuluo didn't think much of it at all.

From the mouths of his subordinates who came back, he learned that the Han cavalry were very good at fighting, well-equipped, and everyone was armored, and many even put armor on their horses. The army cavalry was defeated.

If such an army is an enemy, it would be terrible, but fortunately, they are allies...

Coincidentally, the same is true for the Zhaozhao side. He had a direct connection and conversation with Zhang Yan, discussed the tactics of a Hongmen Banquet, invited Yu Po and other opposition leaders to have a final discussion, and pretended to make a final win over.
