Three Kingdoms: I, Liu Feng, do not want to die

Chapter 23 If You Don't Obey, I Will Resign and Return to Chengdu
In distress.

Someone reported to Liu Feng and he sent someone to summon Meng Da and Deng Xian.

Deng Xian jumped up and down, shocked and frightened: "It must be that thief Li Fu who informed Liu Feng again. General, please save me. Now that Liu Feng knows that I have been away from my post, he will definitely punish me severely."

Deng Xian's wounds from being whipped twenty times in public by Liu Feng had not yet fully healed, and now he was going to be summoned by Liu Feng again. He felt like his heart was in his throat.

Meng Da's face also turned pale.

Before Liu Feng sent someone to summon him, Meng Da actually had some doubts about Li Fu's surrender to Liu Feng.

Now Liu Feng sent someone to summon him, and specifically asked Deng Xian to go along.

This proves that Li Fu must have surrendered to Liu Feng, otherwise Liu Feng would not have known that Deng Xian had deserted his post at this time.

Thinking of this, Meng Da became even angrier.

Seeing the panicked Deng Xian, Meng Da became even more upset: "Why are you panicking? These 4,000 soldiers were given to me to command before the king entered Sichuan."

"I have raised him for seven or eight years. It is not that easy for Liu Feng to seize my military power."

"You are my nephew, why do you get so anxious and lose your composure when faced with a big event? With such a mentality, how can I entrust you with important tasks in the future?"

"Come with me immediately. I want to see how Liu Feng wants to deal with me."

After being scolded by Meng Da, Deng Xian had to suppress his inner fear and follow Meng Da to Liu Feng's camp in the city.

Riding all the way to the camp in the city, Meng Da adjusted his mood and pretended to have a normal smile on his face, as if he was unaware of the situation.

When Meng Da arrived at the general's tent, he asked calmly, "I wonder what the general wants me to do?"

Deng Xian also bowed and greeted.

However, compared with Meng Da's calmness, Deng Xian felt guilty and frightened. He did not dare to look up at Liu Feng since he entered the general's tent.

Liu Feng only glanced at the trembling Deng Xian and did not look at him any more. He took out a letter and handed it to Meng Da: "General Meng, this is a letter from Yidu Governor Fan You, saying that he has just become Yidu Governor and is not sure about the amount of food and grass in Yidu. He hopes that General Meng can write back and let him know."

"I think that writing letters back and forth takes up too much time. General Meng once said to me when I was in Shangyong: You have been in Zigui for a long time. When you come to Fangling, you can help me transfer grain from Zigui to support the army."

"Please ask General Meng to go to Zigui and supervise the transportation of grain and grass to Fangling."

When Meng Da read the contents of the letter, he felt like the sky was falling.

Before leaving Zigui, Meng Da had instructed Fan You that no one could transfer grain unless there was a written written statement from him.

This was not a problem at all.

After all, Meng Da was leading his troops to war, so the food and fodder in the rear was naturally a big deal and there could not be any negligence.

The problem is that Liu Feng suddenly came to Shangyong from Hanzhong, and was appointed as Deputy Army General and became Meng Da's direct superior. He also forced Meng Da to obey his orders and move his troops to Fangling, but Fan You in Zigui was unaware of the change.

Therefore, when Liu Feng's letter to transfer grain was sent to Zigui, even though Fan You was the prefect of Yidu, he wanted to seek Meng Da's opinion first.

To put it simply, Fan You did this to ensure the safety of the grain route.

Generally speaking, Fan You only listened to Meng Da and not Liu Feng.

If Meng Da could still firmly manage these 4,000 soldiers, let alone go to Zigui to supervise the transportation of food and grass, even if he stayed in Zigui, Liu Feng would not be able to command these 4,000 soldiers without Meng Da's instructions.

But it just happens at this critical juncture.

Meng Da is going to Zigui to supervise the transportation of grain and grass. After returning to Fangling, he probably won't be able to command even Deng Xian.

"I have no grudge against the general, why must the general bully me?" Meng Da was unwilling to go to Zigui, so he gritted his teeth and asked. "Bully?" Liu Feng sneered, "Why do you say that, General Meng?"

"I sent people to Zigui to transfer grain, but Governor Fan asked General Meng to reply. Is it General Meng who is bullying me, or am I bullying General Meng?"

"Why don't I write a letter to my father to resign, saying that I am not qualified to be this mediocre commander, and ask my father to find someone more virtuous. What do you think, General Meng?"

Liu Feng's tactic of retreating to advance made Meng Da's hair stand on end.

If Liu Feng really wrote a letter to Liu Bei to resign, what would Liu Bei think?
I asked my adopted son to come to Shangyong to command the troops, and you directly forced my adopted son to resign?

Does the decree of me, the King of Hanzhong, have no authority at all?
Meng Da already felt that there were villains around Liu Bei who were using Kuai Qi's death to slander him. What would happen if Liu Bei also got Liu Feng's letter of resignation?

Even if the law is in place in Chengdu, Meng Da doesn't think he can achieve success under Liu Bei in the future!

Even Fa Zheng wanted to draw a clear line between himself and himself.

What is the difference between bullying the adopted son of King Hanzhong and bullying the King Hanzhong?
"General, you have misunderstood. I have no intention of bullying you! It must be that Fan You didn't know that you were coming and was worried about the loss of food and grass, so he wrote to confirm." Meng Da hurriedly explained, fearing that Liu Feng would really send a letter of resignation to Liu Bei in a fit of anger.

Deng Xian on the side was already dumbfounded.

who am I?
where am I?
what am i doing?
Liu Feng softened his tone again: "General Meng, I know you have always been upset about my commanding the troops in Shangyong, thinking that I snatched away the opportunity that should have belonged to you to make achievements."

"I also think this is actually a misunderstanding between you and me, and I think General Meng has the 'capacity of Yue Yi', so I don't want to be serious about this misunderstanding."

"Now it seems that the misunderstanding between you and me has not been eliminated with the passage of time, but has become deeper and deeper."

"Discord between generals and commanders is a taboo in military strategy. If a big mistake is made in the future because of discord between you and me, it will be too late to regret it."

"I intend to make peace with General Meng. What do you think?"

Seeing Liu Feng's tone relax, Meng Da dared not say no, and quickly said: "I also think there is a misunderstanding, and I am willing to resolve the misunderstanding with the deputy general."

Liu Feng then said: "In this case, please ask General Meng to go to Zigui and supervise the transportation of grain and grass to Fangling."

"I can assure General Meng that if there is an opportunity to make achievements in the future, I will not keep it to myself, but will share it with General Meng."

"You and I are both fighting for the revival of the Han Dynasty. There is no need for us to fight to the death in Shangyong."

"Back then, Le Yi was able to conquer more than 70 cities of Qi. How can you and I limit our vision to the small land of Shangyong?"

Hear the words.

Although Meng Da was extremely reluctant, he had no choice but to accept the military order: "I will obey the order of the deputy general and transport the food and grass to Fangling as soon as possible."

Liu Feng left Deng Xian alone again.

Looking at Deng Xian's eyes asking for help, Meng Da hardened his heart and turned away.

Now that he can’t even protect himself, how can he take care of Deng Xian?
As soon as Meng Da left, Deng Xian could no longer hold on and knelt down with a plop: "General, please forgive me!"

Liu Feng looked at Deng Xian with a half-smile: "Captain Deng, what crime have you committed?"

Deng Xian bowed his head to the ground and said, "Please forgive me for leaving my post without permission."

Liu Feng tapped the table lightly.

The rhythmic knocking made Deng Xian's heart beat as if it were being knocked on.
