On the ninth day of November, Wei Yan and Huo Jun commanded [-] troops and raided the right wing of the Han Army Commandery, Lian Kefangling, Shangyong, Zhuxi and other places, copied the back road of Xiahou and his son, and burned a large grain and grass camp. The military rations are tens of thousands of stones!

Xiahou and his son lost their troops and lost their generals. Fortunately, Xu Huang and Yu Jin led their troops to fight to the death.

On the 2th day of November, Zhang Fei also led [-] troops into Mi Cang Road in one fell swoop. Yan Yantong, a veteran of the middle of Sichuan, had a fierce battle with the troops of Yan Yantong's headquarters, relying on the favorable terrain!

On November [-]th, seeing that the time was right, Sun Quan mobilized [-] troops of water and infantry, and more than [-] warships, crossed the Yangtze River to attack Jiujiang County, and covered Ke Liyang, Fuling, and Quanjiao along the way...more than ten people in size Seeing the victory in the city, Bi Yan'er was very arrogant, claiming to "drink the Yellow River with all my strength!" '

Zhang Liao's troops resisted steadily and retreated step by step. While luring the enemy deep into the inland, he concentrated his troops near Hefei to seek a decisive battle.

…………

Fighting everywhere, fighting all over the sky, the three major military groups of Cao, Sun, and Liu were completely caught in a melee, but this was all in Xiao Yi's expectation, so I don't feel surprised. There is also something unexpected, which is the matter of Chengdu City !

From the 15th year of Jian'an to November [-]th, Liu Bei and Pang Tong used the strategy of "falsely retreating and luring the enemy out of the city" to defeat the Shu soldiers led by Liu Xun and Liu Chan, and invaded Chengdu in one fell swoop. The civil and military officials who died together, turned their backs one after another.

The brothers of the Liu family were very strong, unwilling to surrender and kill their father and enemies, they gathered more than a hundred men and women from the whole clan, and chose to self-immolate behind closed doors. Decades of savings have all been reduced to ashes.

The fire burned for four days and four nights, burning a large number of houses, killing and injuring more than [-] people, and countless homeless people... Although the Liu Bei Group won, they only got a dilapidated city of Chengdu!

I thought that Chengdu's city defenses were strong, with sufficient troops, food, grass, and money. As long as Liu Xun and Liu Chan brothers were not too useless, and the gentry in central Shu put in more effort, it would not be a problem to hold on for a few months!

I didn't expect that in less than 20 days, the city would be ruined and people would die. Xiao Yi also knew that it wasn't that the Liu brothers were incompetent, nor was it that the gentry in the middle of Shu were useless, but that Liu Bei and Pang Tong were too powerful, and the two sides were not at the same level at all. opponent!

Fortunately, Chengdu is dilapidated, there is no food, no money, and people are in panic. Liu Bei and Pang Tong want to use this as a basis to lead the army to the Northern Expedition, which is not an easy task.

Even so, seeing his old enemy controlling Bashu, Xiao Yi felt very upset, and decided to make trouble for the big-eared thief, no, big trouble!

"Have you ever investigated the fact that the big-eared thief colluded with the Qiang people and violated the border of the Han Dynasty?"

"Report to Master: The investigation has been clear, the big-eared thief used Mi Zhu as an envoy, and sent two hundred carts of gold, silver, iron, and grain to the Qiang people, and asked them to send troops to attack Wudu County to harass our army's left wing!

But the big-eared thief is very treacherous, he only sent messengers to deliver things and passed on oral messages, and did not leave any letters. Based on the confessions of the chiefs alone, it may be difficult to determine his guilt! "

To catch a traitor and a double, to take a thief and take stolen goods, if you want to convict a person, you need both witness and physical evidence, and the latter is more important than the former!

The fat man has been busy for several days, proving that Liu Bei colluded with the Qiang people and invaded the Han soil, but he did not find any evidence. Those big chiefs are clumsy, and relying on their confessions, I am afraid it will be difficult to convince the world?

"Brave-brained, official words and two words, it is reasonable anyway, we say that the big-eared thieves are collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country, who dares to say otherwise?"

"What does Master mean?"

"If you want to add a crime, why bother!"

"Students understand, they must do it seamlessly!"

Fatty patted his forehead and finally came to his senses. People and things in the world are all true and false, so why should he be serious?

Liu Bei's collusion with the Qiang people has been confirmed. As for the lack of evidence, it is enough to make a copy. The Caoying Group has countless talents, and there is no shortage of people who are good at imitating other people's handwriting. Fatty himself is a master at this. , Give yourself a sick note to play!

Soon, after the fat man's 'close search', he finally found a few 'personal letters' from Liu Bei, proving that he not only colluded with the Qiang tribes, invaded the border of the Han, but also promised to cede the twelve counties of Xiliang to the Qiang People, make peace with them, and form a brotherhood!

When the news spread, the whole world was in an uproar, and the voices of cursing continued. The dignified relatives of the great Han Dynasty, the imperial family and nobles, actually betrayed the country and called them brothers and sisters with the Qiang people. It was shameless to the extreme.

Of course, there are also people who stand up and think that Uncle Liu Huang, a benevolent and righteous gentleman, would never do such a thing. There must be some misunderstanding, or someone has framed him!

It's a pity that the small opposition was quickly drowned out by the wave of condemnation. The Caoying Group not only controls the court, but also controls the tide of public opinion. Once the political trolls come out, they can drown people alive with their saliva!

At this point, Xiao Yi couldn't stay in Xiliang anymore. After biding farewell to his wife and daughters, he led his troops back to Hanzhong County and prepared to mobilize the army to compete with Liu Bei and Pang Tong!

Unexpectedly, on the way back, I received another urgent report, which was sent from Chengdu, with only six short words: "The big-eared thief wants to be king!" '

Chapter 1560 The big-eared thief wants to be king! (two)

Chengdu is located in the heart of the Southwest Basin, surrounded by flat terrain, criss-cross rivers, and rich products. It is a first-class geomantic treasure land. As early as the last three generations, the ancient Shu Kingdom was established here!

After Liu Yan ruled Yizhou, he set up his government office in Chengdu. With painstaking efforts and continuous expansion, he finally became the largest city in the southwest, with a permanent population of more than 20. The degree of wealth was not lower than that of Luoyang and Xuchang. Developed and rich in beautiful Shu brocade, it has also won the reputation of "Brocade Official City"!

It's a pity that the prosperous and prosperous city can't escape the ravages of war. Today's Chengdu city is full of ruined walls, the smoke of war is still there, and there are damaged houses and charred corpses everywhere. The people's cries are endless day and night. !

"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!"

"It's not a natural disaster, it's actually a man-made disaster. If it wasn't for the despicable and shameless big-eared thief who killed brothers of the same clan and robbed the foundation, would the people of Shu have such difficulties?"

"Big-eared thief, I wish I could swallow your flesh, thirst for your blood, peel off your skin and cramps, bruise your bones and throw up ashes, it's hard to get rid of the hatred in our hearts!"

…………

The four-day and four-night fire burned most of the city of Chengdu, all the treasuries were reduced to ashes, thousands of houses were damaged, tens of thousands of people were killed and injured, and property losses were even more numerous... The fire had just been extinguished. The north wind suddenly blows, the sky is snowing heavily, the land is white, and the temperature is plummeting!

The homeless people wandered around in the wind and snow, looking for their lost family members. Those who found them cried, and those who couldn't find them wailed loudly.

There are also people who hold sticks and keep digging in the ruins. Iron pots, pottery pots, porcelain bowls... Occasionally there are unburnt grains, good or bad, and they have to work hard no matter how big the disaster is. go down!

The problem is that the textile industry in Chengdu is well developed, and every household raises silkworms and weaves cloth. The most feared thing is fire. Once a large area is burned, it will not stop. Therefore, the people dig hard, but they can't find much. Instead, they dug up a lot. The scorched corpse also dug out deep resentment...

Liu Xun and Liu Chan died by self-immolation. It is meaningless to resent the two dead people. Besides, the Liu family brothers are also victims. There are more than [-] members of the family, men, women and children, and none of them are alive!

The grievances accumulated by the common people naturally fell on Liu Bei's head. There were those who gnashed their teeth and cursed, and those who swore and cursed. Clay figurines with big ears are sold, and they actually made a lot of money!

The common people gritted their back molars, took out the last of their savings, and wanted to buy a doll with big ears, and pricked it hard a few times to vent their anger. If they really couldn't afford it, they squeezed one with Ni, pointed at their noses and cursed every day, and took it away. Name: 'Straw Sandal Doll! '

Everyone in the world knows that a certain high-ranking figure was born as a child weaving mats and shoes, that is, weaving straw sandals.

The anger of the Shu people quickly turned into practical actions. Some scattered Shu soldiers were unwilling to surrender to Liu Bei, so they lurked in the wilderness, taking advantage of the familiar terrain, and continuously attacked Liu Bei's army's grain and grass troops!

In some cities around Chengdu, some were unwilling to surrender to Liu Bei, and they openly raised the banner of 'Welcome to the Great Sima, Crack down on the Big-Eared Thief', and there were many responders at once.

The city of Chengdu is not peaceful either. When Liu Bei's army patrols at night, they are often attacked suddenly, especially the soldiers who are alone. They disappear for no reason. Dozens of people can be lost overnight!

The great outrage of the people can be seen!

Even the aristocrats who originally supported Liu Bei and supported him in Chengdu had a lot of grievances. Because of the fire in Chengdu, they suffered the heaviest losses. Countless houses, shops, and workshops were burned down, most of which were the properties of the aristocrats!

The gentry have always valued profits. If Liu Bei didn't offer more benefits to compensate for their losses, he might be rebellious. However, no matter how fat the Bashu meat is, it has its limit. How much more can Liu Bei cut off?

........................

Fifteen miles northwest of Chengdu, there is a "Chuan Zhu" shrine, which is used by the Shu people to worship Li Bing and his son Erlang. They thank the father and son for their contributions to water control and benefit the people in Shu!

Inside the shrine - towering ancient trees, shady trees, and large buildings. Because it is far away from Chengdu, it was lucky to escape the disaster of Zhurong. Liu Bei's Chinese army tent is temporarily set up here!

"Li Bing's father and son made great contributions to the people of Sichuan in eliminating floods, repairing cable bridges, and opening salt wells. Therefore, later generations regarded them as the Lord of Sichuan, built temples for him, worshiped them every year, and kept burning incense!

Chengdu was originally a prosperous land of flowers and willows, a gentle and prosperous town, but now because of my uncle, it was unfortunately destroyed by the flames of war, and the lives of people were devastated. "

Liu Bei was wearing a fox fur cloak, standing on a high platform, looking eastward at the dilapidated and snow-covered city of Chengdu, he couldn't help feeling sad!

What people want in life is to be honored in life and famous after death. I have been in the world for nearly 30 years, and I have suffered repeated defeats and setbacks.
