Chapter 157 There Are Warriors (1/2)(1/2)
After giving Mi Fang a reply, Liu Chuang no longer considered this matter.
Although Mi Fang in history is not as famous as his brother Mi Zhu, he occasionally has a masterpiece. This person is not without ability, but unfortunately he used the wrong place. Now that Liu Chuang arranged him in the northern border, it can be regarded as giving him a chance to stand alone.
I believe Mi Fang will not disappoint him.
In fact, Mi Fang is doing well in northern Xinjiang now.
Having gained a foothold in a short period of time also shows that he does have the ability in this regard.
Since that's the case, why bother him with too many constraints?
Therefore, Liu Chuang did not put too much effort into this matter, because news came from Xudu that Cao Cao was about to attack Nanyang for the third time.
This time, it is probably the last time Cao Cao used troops to Nanyang.
Liu Chuang could not remember the final result of Cao Cao's battle, but he remembered that after this battle, Jia Xu surrendered and Zhang Xiu surrendered... Zhang Xiu, the nephew of the general of Xiliang, Zhang Ji, was skilled in guns and horses and was good at using military forces. Being able to fight against Cao Cao three times against Nanyang shows that this person's ability is not easy. The most important thing is that Jia Xu... The poisonous warrior surrendered, and Cao Cao wanted to be more wings.
To be honest, Liu Chuang didn't like Jia Xu at first in his previous life.
In the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Jia Xu's sense of existence does not seem to be particularly strong.
But as he grew older, his understanding of Jia Xu became more and more abundant... he was good at protecting himself, had complete plans, and had the ability to change organically.
This is someone who knows his positioning very well!
Later generations often said that Cao Cao's five major planners, Guo Jia died early, and Xun Yu had conflicts with Cao Cao because he was concerned about the Han Dynasty and eventually died young. As for Cheng Yu and Xun You, it was a bit insufficient. Cheng Yu was too strong, while Xun You was biased towards military strategy and was a good chief of staff, but not a top planner. Therefore, in the late Cao Wei period, the only one who could be considered a planner was Jia Xu and Jia Wenhe.
There are geniuses first, then poisonous men...
Liu Chuang suddenly felt that he would be a little sad in his future life.
"Zishan, where is Sima Yi now?"
Bu Zhi raised his head and said, "If Heng sent someone to deliver a letter the day before yesterday, he said that Sima Yi and Kong Ming had arrived in Jimo... Maybe in a few days, they would go to Donglai."
"How are they getting along?"
"Young Master said, Sima Yi and Kong Ming?"
"Um."
Bu Zhi didn't quite understand why Liu Chuang attached so much importance to the relationship between the two.
So he thought for a while and said, "According to Hengruo, the two of them often have disputes, but the relationship is pretty good. Hengruo also said that it is rare to see Kong Ming encounter an opponent, and Sima Yi was amazingly talented and often argued with Kong Ming. Both sides have their own victory or defeat, so it is difficult to say who is better."
"Kong Ming has an opponent, which is a good thing."
In the original history, Kong Ming also had good friends. Pang Tong, Xu Shu, Meng Gongwei, Shi Guangyuan, Cui Zhouping... These people were all very capable figures during the Three Kingdoms period. Not to mention that Pang Tong and Zhuge Liang were as famous as Zhuge Liang, Xu Shu, Meng Gongwei, Shi Guangyuan were also not the same. Only with such friends could Zhuge Liang grow up quickly. Unfortunately, Liu Chuang does not intend to send Zhuge Liang to Jingzhou now. Without the mutual supervision of those friends, could Zhuge Liang still reach the height in history? Liu Chuang was a little suspicious.
However, Sima Yi's appearance opened another window for Liu Chuang.
I can't recruit Pang Tong, but I can introduce you to other partners... You know, he has no shortage of resources. With Zheng Xuan, the sycamore tree, Liu Chuang is not worried, and he cannot attract phoenixes to stop. Sima Yi is the first partner arranged by Liu Chuang for Zhuge Liang. Judging from Sima Yi's attitude towards Liu Chuang, he seems to have a good impression of Liu Chuang... In any case, this is also an amazing person. At least in Liu Chuang's opinion, Sima Yi's future achievements are far better than Pang Tong who died before he succeeds.
Hopefully, with such a tiger accompanying you, the dragon will benefit a lot.
"How is the situation there?"
"Nanshan Academy has already grown into a large scale, and now it has gathered hundreds of people, not a crowd of famous scholars today."
Liu Chuang thought about it and was quite satisfied.
"Young Master."
"Um?"
Bu Zhi hesitated for a moment and said softly: "I have a reluctant request, and I hope the young master will agree."
"Zishan, you have been with me for many years. If you have anything to say, you might as well say it without hesitation."
"I want to go to the northern border and see what's going on there."
When Liu Chuang heard this, he couldn't help but be stunned.
He thought about it and nodded, "It's good to go and see, Zi Fang is alone, after all, he is alone. After you go there, you might as well help him again. Just a few days ago, Yuan Shao wrote a letter saying that he doesn't want to stay in Langya. Now the two counties of Dongwu and Langya have been connected together, and Brother Yien is enough to control it. It's a pity that he stays there. In this way, I ask Yuan Shao to accompany you to the northern border. In addition, I have a letter here. When you pass by Guangyang County, please detour Ji County, find a man named Xu Miao, and hand it to him."
Xu Miao is a talent recommended by Zheng Xuan to Liu Chuang.
It is said that this person is proficient in farming and has extraordinary talent... He studied under Zheng Xuan's school back then, but later he had to return to his hometown due to family affairs.
Liu Chuang always wanted to recruit this person, but he was worried that the journey was long and Xu Miao was unwilling to come.
It just so happened that Mi Fang said that it would be difficult to plant millet in northern Xinjiang, so Liu Chuang thought of this person. With Zheng Xuan’s letter, Liu Chuang was 80% sure to invite this person. Not to mention letting him participate in what he is best at, I believe that Xu Miao will never refuse again.
After hearing this, Bu Zhi bowed and said, "Don't worry, Master, you will never let down the entrustedness of the entrustedness of the entrustedness."
However, when Bu Zhi left, Liu Chuang faced another problem.
Chen Jiao and Chen Qun are good at the outside but not skilled in the inside.
Although this small Beihai County and Donglai have countless documents and documents every day. Before, Bu Zhi was the one who handled it, which saved Liu Chuang a lot of trouble. If Bu Zhi left, who would be responsible for these documents? Liu Chuang also had a headache after agreeing to Bu Zhi.
"Why not let Mr. Ding come?"
"oh?"
"Xu Ziming has returned to Gaomi now, and there is no arrangement for the left and right.
Ding Gong has been promoting military farming in Jiaoxi this year, so Ziming can take over. Ding Gong has been good at these government affairs before, so wouldn’t it be just right to let him come back and take over?”
Lu Dai is now an order for Yi'an, and to be honest, he is a bit useless.
Xu Yi was good at military farming affairs, so letting him take over the position of Yi'an Ling was indeed the best choice.
When Liu Chuang thought of this, he felt relieved.
"Since that's the case, I will send someone to send Mr. Ding back."
Lu Dai is in Yi'an, and it has been nearly a year since he was in a flash.
In the past year, he has been preparing for the Jiaoxi military farming affairs. Liu Chuang suddenly summoned him back to Gaomi. Lu Dai thought something had happened at first. After he returned to Gaomi and asked the reason, he felt relieved and immediately took over the affairs in Bu Zhi. Although Jiaoxi military farming was his hard work, Lu Dai still hoped to return to Gaomi... After all, this is Liu Chuang's core circle. Not to mention, Lu Dai is not good at farming, he hopes to handle government affairs rather than daily trivial matters.
Afterwards, Xu Yi was ordered to be appointed as the Yi'an Order.
After placing Lu Dai, Liu Chuang was a little tired and returned to the back house.
"Meng Yan, why are you so tired?"
Mi Feng ordered people to prepare supper and deliver it to Liu Chuang's study, asking with some concern.
Liu Chuang only smiled and said softly: "It's not tiring, it's just handling some personnel arrangements... Now this territory is getting bigger and bigger, and more people are being managed. In the past, Zishan was the only one who held the support of the **. Today, he knew that it would be so heavy.
There are still fewer people available in my hands…”
Mi Feng couldn't help feeling a little distressed, so he walked behind Liu Chuang and gently kneaded his shoulders.
After two months of marriage, Liu Chuang did not enjoy all the blessings of all the people as people outside guessed. He thought about it, but the things around him were one after another, and he had less time to stay with the beauty than after the wedding. Mi Feng couldn't help feeling a little distressed when he looked at Liu Chuang's slightly thin cheeks.
"By the way, I received a letter from my eldest brother today."
"oh?"
The eldest brother in Mi Feng's mouth is undoubtedly Mi Zhu.
Today, Mi Zhu is still the prefect of Donghai County. On the surface, he has never had any contact with Liu Chuang.
But in private, Mi Zhu secretly communicated with Mi Huo's letters, which finally relieved Mi Huo's entanglement and concern in his heart.
However, no one outsiders knew about the correspondence between these letters except Mi Feng and Liu Chuang.
Even Mi Zhu was left to Lin Laizi alone, and even Mi Zhu's wife didn't know that Mi Zhu had a connection with Liu Chuang.
"Liu Bei has often written letters to his elder brother recently."
"oh?"
"Brother, I feel that he seems to be interested in using troops against Lu Bu."
Liu Chuang exhaled a breath of turbid air with great force, as if he was chanting to himself: "That's it!"
Liu Bei was stubborn in Xuzhou... If he didn't move, that would be a strange thing.
Since Chen Gui's rebellion last year, Liu Bei has been in a state of silence. Now, he has finally taken action, which is not as unexpected as Liu Chuang.
"You and your elder brother know, let him not participate in it.
If Liu Bei asked him for help, he would not refuse, but he would never send troops to fight with Lu Bu... Liu Bei is no match for Lu Bu now."
Moeba is not particularly clear about these things.
But since Liu Chuang said that, she certainly didn't want Mi Zhu to put him in danger.
After dinner, Liu Chuang invited Zhou Cang.
He handed a letter to Zhou Cang, "You make arrangements and let Zhang Niuer leave overnight, go to Xia Pi, and hand the letter to Chen Gongtai."
Speaking of this, Liu Chuang hesitated for a moment.
"In addition, let Zhang Niuer tell Chen Gong, be careful of Chen Yuanlong."
He couldn't remember clearly whether Liu Bei had sneak attacked Lu Bu in history. However, based on his understanding of Liu Bei, this guy might really be able to send troops. Liu Chuang still remembered the battle in March last year. He remembered it very clearly. In history books, or in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Chen Gui did not rebel against Lu Bu, nor did he assist Liu Bei in such a sneak attack in Xia Pi.
Liu Bei, without Cao Cao's help, would never have been able to defeat Lu Bu.
But Liu Chuang could not guarantee what would happen if Chen Deng raised an army in Guangling?
