Three Kingdoms: My Strategy Simulator

As for Liu Yan, Liu Bei didn't know who he was, so Liu Bei was surprised that Liu Zhang would personally deliver grain to Wu County.

Liu Bei may not have the ability of Li Ji to know the money and food expenditures of Wujun, and he can dispatch a large number of scholars and petty officials to easily carry out large-scale "work-for-relief".

However, Liu Bei knew that Wu County would be quite short of money and food.

Based on his trust in Li Ji, Liu Bei did not doubt or reject Li Ji's decision, but chose to silently support it.

Liu Bei knew very well that he was not as good as Guan Yu and Zhang Fei in charging into battle, and he was not as good as Li Ji in governing politics, so the only thing he could do was to give them enough trust.

"Has Zikun already made a decision? Or do we need to go to meet Liu Jiyu in person?" Liu Bei asked.

"Although my lord and Liu Jiyu are brothers of the same clan, the purpose of Liu Zhang's visit is unclear, and it is more appropriate for my lord to stay in the refugee camp and win the hearts of the people..."

Li Ji shook his head and said, and then added.

"Liu Jiyu will arrive in Wu County in three days. I plan to arrange for Liu Jiyu to be received by Dantu, and then Ji will meet with him personally to confirm his purpose."

When Liu Bei heard this, he pondered for a moment and then said.

"In this case, Zikun will have to worry about this matter. And if Liu Jiyu makes any request on behalf of Uncle Liu Yan, Zikun can make a decision on my behalf with full authority."

This power can be said to be quite great.

It can almost be said that no matter what decision Li Ji made during the discussion with Liu Zhang, Liu Bei would approve it and put no restrictions on Li Ji at all.

This made Li Ji suspect that he had made a promise to give up Wu County, and Liu Bei might not deny it even if he gritted his teeth.

"Please don't worry, my lord."

Li Ji was moved by Liu Bei's trust and felt a little ashamed of his concealment.

Although this concealment was due to the current situation, he knew that once Liu Bei was fully revealed, even if the people had to agree, it would make Liu Bei feel guilty for betraying the imperial court, and he would be tortured in his heart. Therefore, Li Jicai deliberately concealed it from Liu Bei. .

However, this finally made Li Ji feel a little ashamed.

……

And Liu Zhang, who had been going all the way down the Yangtze River, was standing on the deck looking at the river view, with the same extreme anxiety appearing in his eyes.

Perhaps, when he first took the boat down, Liu Zhang was still quite novel about the beautiful scenery on both sides of the Yangtze River, but as he gradually got used to the scenery, the melancholy and hesitation in Liu Zhang's heart came to him unconsciously.

There are two tasks entrusted by his father Liu Yan.

1: In exchange for food, Li Ji asked for the perfect strategy for splitting the soil in Yizhou and making him king.

After all, the Emperor Liu Hong had just put down the Yellow Turban Rebellion and his prestige was at its peak. This made Liu Yan, despite his ambitions, also be in awe of the Emperor Liu Hong.

Moreover, such a major event is no different from a rebellion. If it fails, it will be a serious crime of confiscating the family and exterminating the clan. Especially Liu Yan needs to be extremely cautious in dealing with it, and even does not hesitate to send a large amount of food to get a solution.

Two: Naturally, it is to make good friends with Li Ji, and even the best thing is to be able to abduct Li Ji back to Yizhou.

As Li Ji's reputation grew, Liu Yan naturally became more and more aware of what a genius Li Ji was.

Moreover, Liu Yan even suspected that the reason why Li Ji encouraged him to break the earth and become the king was because the emperor and the court had treated Li Ji unfairly regarding the scepter, which in turn caused Li Ji's dissatisfaction.

Therefore, Liu Yan was extremely eager for Li Ji to enter Sichuan and Shu to assist him, which was absolutely foolproof.

Liu Zhang, who was among them, also had some thoughts of his own.

Liu Zhang couldn't sleep until his three brothers died!
What Liu Zhang wanted to ask Li Ji for advice was how to skillfully send his three brothers back to the west so that they would never have the chance to enter Sichuan.

Otherwise, even if Liu Yan is finally allowed to successfully break the earth and become the king, once the three brothers return to Yizhou, especially the eldest brother as the eldest son enters Sichuan, then Liu Zhang knows very well that everything he does will become the wedding dress of the eldest brother, and even himself He will be imprisoned for the rest of his life until death.

In addition, Liu Zhang was also quite eager to make good friends with Li Ji.

If he had a good relationship with Li Ji and Li Ji followed him to Sichuan and Shu to be his father's arm, then Liu Zhang would think that with Li Ji's support, his position would be extremely stable.

'But, how to make friends with Li Zikun? '

Thinking of this problem, Liu Zhang's brows never relaxed.

Liu Zhang also wanted to ask Zhao Yun for a test, but Zhao Yun was very tight-lipped and did not drink. This gave Liu Zhang no chance even if he wanted to get Zhao Yun drunk.

At this moment, Cheng Jiangzhi of Bajun County, who had a somewhat flattering expression, walked towards Liu Zhang and reminded him carefully. "Sir, it's windy on the river. It's better not to stay too long. Be careful not to catch the wind and cold."

When Liu Zhang heard this, he didn't mean to rely on his identity at all. He bowed his hands and thanked him and said. "Thank you, Jiang Juncheng. It's just that Zhang had some unsolved matters in his heart, so he wanted to take advantage of the river breeze to calm down."

Jiang Zhi couldn't help but said in admiration.

"As expected of the young master, he frowned. What he was thinking about was the long-term perspective. Even though he was crossing the Yangtze River, his heart was still about the livelihood of millions of people in Shu." As soon as these words came out, Liu Zhang couldn't help but I'm a little embarrassed.

Obviously what Liu Zhang was thinking about was how to lick Li Ji, but when Jiang Zhi said this, it seemed to make some sense.

If Li Ji, a great talent in governing the country, is willing to enter Shu, it will indeed affect the livelihood of millions of people in Shu.

"You still understand me."

Liu Zhang responded with some complacency, which made Jiang Zhi's face look even more flattering.

However, in this scene, the young man who was following Jiang Zhi and dressed as a small official, but with a rather burly physique, showed a trace of disgust and contempt in his eyebrows.

"By the way, Young Master, I am afraid that you will catch a cold, so I have prepared a cloak for you to keep out the cold. Please put it on, Young Master. Don't just focus on governing the people and neglect your health."

As Jiang Zhi spoke, he gestured towards the young man behind him.

Upon seeing this, the young man stepped forward reluctantly, holding a beautifully embroidered Sichuan brocade cloak in his hands.

"Xingba, why are you still standing there? Hurry and help the young master put it on."

Jiang Zhi urged, and then cautiously spoke to Liu Zhang.

"Young Master, this young nephew has just become a crown prince and is now working as a strategist in the government office. However, not only does he rarely make mistakes in handling official affairs, he is also very brave and courageous. However, he still doesn't understand the rules. Please don't blame me, Master."

When Liu Zhang heard this, he looked at the expressionless Gan Ning behind him who was putting a Shu brocade cloak on him, and naturally understood that Jiang Zhi was taking the opportunity to recommend his nephew.

Liu Zhang took a look at Gan Ning's physique and found that the loose official robe was held tightly by his muscles, and he did look somewhat brave.

Considering that Liu Zhang was indeed in trouble with Jiang Zhi, the governor of Bajun, when transporting grain this time, Liu Zhang was also very satisfied with Jiang Zhi's performance.

Not only is he quite capable, but his mouth is also very useful to Liu Zhang.

After thinking about this, Liu Zhang opened his mouth and said.

"In this case, how about Xingba acting as a personal guard by my side for the time being? After I return to Shuzhong, I will recommend talents to my father."

When Jiang Zhi heard this, he was overjoyed and quickly took Gan Ning to salute Liu Zhang and thank him.

Immediately, when Jiang Zhi left, he still did not forget to remind his nephew carefully and said.

"Xingba, please don't let me down."

After all, others may not know it, but Jiang Zhi is very aware of Gan Ning's arrogant and high-profile personality. He is obviously a son of a noble family, but he has gathered a group of local heroes who call themselves "Jinfan Thieves" and wander around.

That is to say, the Gan family still has some connections in Ba County, which prevented the government from mobilizing forces to attack the "Jinfan thieves", but it also caused the Gan family to wipe their butts countless times in order to help Gan Ning.

Until recently, Gan Ning seemed to have heard about various deeds related to the "Yellow Turban Rebellion", and suddenly he started to study as if he had suddenly awakened. He also intended to enter an official career, and then work as a strategist under Jiang Zhi. Well done.

Now, the appearance of Liu Zhang, the son of Zhou Mu, made Jiang Zhi think about it and understood that this was a rare opportunity to recommend Gan Ning.

The Gan family is just a small aristocratic family in Bajun. It may be a bit thin among Bajun, but when looking at the whole of Yizhou, it doesn't rank high.

If he could cling to Liu Zhang or even become Liu Zhang's confidant, it would be of great help to Gan Ning himself and the Gan family.

Just when Jiang Zhi left in excitement and knowledge, and stayed alone with Gan Ning to guard Liu Zhang, he saw Cao Zhaoyun, the thief under the command of Wu County, appearing in front of him, and he quickly saluted on his own initiative.

Although Cao, the thief under his command, was just a minor official in Jiang Zhi's eyes, Liu Zhang's attitude towards Zhao Yun was unusual, which naturally made Jiang Zhi particularly polite to Zhao Yun.

Zhao Yun quickly returned the gift to Jiang Zhi and walked towards Liu Zhang who was on the deck.

Suddenly, Zhao Yun noticed Gan Ning standing behind Liu Zhang. The invisible momentum made Zhao Yun's eyes narrow slightly.

This is the first master to attract Zhao Yun's attention since Zhao Yun entered Shu.

'You are actually dressed as a petty official? '

Zhao Yun was a little surprised and quickly looked away.

Gan Ning also turned to look at Zhao Yun as if he was feeling something. However, Gan Ning looked at Zhao Yun's appearance as an ordinary scholar, but he didn't pay too much attention.

'It seems that he is still a little immature. If Yun had planned a sneak attack, he would be dead... However, there is hope for the future! It seems that there are many powerful people in Shu, so they should not be underestimated! '

Zhao Yun secretly judged Gan Ning's level, then walked past Gan Ning to Liu Zhang, raised his hands and saluted.

"Master Liu Zhang, Yun has received a reply from Mr. Zikun. Knowing that Mr. Liu Zhang came to Wu County in person, the lord and Mr. Zikun were very happy. Now Mr. Zikun has hosted a banquet in Dantu and is waiting for Mr. Liu Zhang to arrive. "(End of chapter)
