Liu Bei's face was gloomy and clear, so that he could not see the true thoughts in his heart.
His mood at this moment can only be described as complicated.
I was thinking about revitalizing the Han Dynasty, but I didn't expect that Jiang Xia and Liu Qi were relatives of the Han Dynasty, so I didn't have such a thought.
Of course, people's pursuit is not bad, and Liu Bei doesn't have much to say anything.
While I felt relieved, I felt very stressed.
If he doesn't do well, Liu Qi will not be on the sideliness and will definitely intervene. He may not have a chance to turn things around at that time.
After being a neighbor with Jiangxia for two years, he is very clear about the development potential under the rule of Jiangxia army.
Once you can't keep up, you basically don't expect anything in the future, and you won't give him a chance to turn things around.
The news brought back by Zhuge Liang was a good thing for Liu Bei, but it was like a sharp sword hanging high above his head, forcing him to work hard all the time, otherwise everything would turn into nothingness.
Because I understand Jiang Xia’s energy, I don’t have many opportunities to know him and I don’t have much time left.
I don’t know how Zhang Song did it after returning to Yizhou.
In short, after 16 years of Jian'an, Hanzhong suddenly became tense with Yizhou and even began to fight.
Liu Bei Group has been paying attention to the news about Hanzhong and Yizhou. When they heard the news, they were all excited and their private preparations became more active and eager.
Since Zhang Song was able to do this, it would not take long for him to send a letter of help from Yizhou to the Xiangyang County Magistrate's Office, and their chance came.
At this time, Cao's army, who dominated the Central Plains, was fighting with Ma Chao and Han Sui, two major warlords in Xiliang, and they could not take any action to deal with other directions.
The coalition forces of Ma Chao and Han Sui were extremely powerful, including peerless generals who were on the battlefield, first-class or even top leaders with outstanding strategies, and hundreds of thousands of cavalrymen.
Lao Cao personally took the opportunity to supervise the battle, but he didn't get any advantage...
At this time, it was the time when the Liu Bei group in Xiangyang had great achievements. If the battle between the Cao army and the Xiliang coalition forces decided to win and lose, Liu Bei would not have the courage to lead his troops to Yizhou to fight.
With Lao Cao's shrewdness and means, he would probably kill Liu Bei in Yizhou if he could do something casually. In the least he could make him lose his foundation in Jingzhou.
At that time, in order to leave a retreat, Xiangyang and Nanjun had to take the initiative to hand over to Jiangxia. Liu Bei did not want such a thing to happen.
...
Not to mention how Xiangyang made preparations secretly, Huo Jun, who was in Guiyang, encountered trouble.
Guiyang's development efforts are quite strong, and almost all the garrison troops were dispatched. It took almost a year to open up all the main official roads.
Then, the government agencies quickly moved in and became the main force on Guiyang's transportation line.
Taking advantage of this east wind, Guiyang's people's livelihood economy has made great progress.
With the development of people's livelihood economy, the pace of Han people and government officials has also slowly spread deep into the mountains and forests.
Naturally, it had an intersection with the barbarian tribes that settled in the mountains and forests.
During this period, the Yi tribe who had interacted with many Han people was fine, and enjoyed the benefits of convenient transportation and treated the Han people and the government quite well.
No one can live a good life...
Compared with the unsecured life in the mountains and forests, the life in villages and towns outside the mountains and forests is obviously much better.
Because development requires a lot of labor, as long as the barbarians are willing to abide by the rules, they can earn a considerable income after working from the mountains.
The government is quite fair and just in this regard, attracting many small tribes of barbarians to settle out and live in the same place as Han people.
Through these barbarians, the government deepened its understanding of mountains and forests, and also accumulated a lot of useful knowledge on mountain forest survival.
At the same time, it is inevitable that it has intersected with the barbarian tribes who have lived in deep mountains and dense forests for a long time and have not contacted the Han people.
Fortunately, the government's attitude was quite appropriate, he did not act aggressively, and there were naturalized people from the same tribe who helped him talk, so there was no major conflict.
But because of customs, small frictions are constantly...
Mainly, these barbarians who have become accustomed to the dense mountains and environments are not as if they are actively relocated, and they are full of vigilance against the outside world.
This is not something that can be done by getting better by living a life, or by being familiar with the persuasion of the same tribe.
Fortunately, Liu Qi has long had regulations on this.
Unless it is located at the critical point of traffic, it is not allowed to force advance, nor is it allowed forcibly force the barbarians in the mountains and forests to change their land and return to the current.
What the government needs to do is to find ways to contact and communicate with these barbarians and start a simple trading model of bartering.
Many good things in deep mountains and dense forests are valuable outside.
Many simple daily necessities outside are also popular in the deep mountains and dense forests.
Due to population factors, there is no need to fully develop remote counties like Guiyang.
At present, relying on urban development as a safe place, as long as the official road can connect all the developed towns, it will be a great victory.
However, due to communication factors, Liu Qi, who is in charge of Jiangxia, has an average constraint on low officials and military generals.
Huo Jun is a cautious person, but he is inevitably implicated by the radical actions of his generals.
As the military janitor opened up the deep mountains and forests, it had a conflict with the barbarian tribe who had lived here for a long time.
Fortunately, there were exchanges before, and the relationship was pretty good, and there was no direct battle. At this time, the arena promoted by the Military Control Office played a huge role.
Since there was a conflict, the barbarian tribes who had lived in deep mountains and dense forests for a long time were also willing to resolve the problem through the arena.
However, the result of the ring battle was that the military janitor was quite embarrassing.
Two third-rate generals dispatched to be on the safe side were actually defeated, and they were defeated quite thoroughly, and they basically had no power to fight back.
This incident quickly attracted Huo Jun's attention...
First, I figured out the reason for the incident and scolded the officials who were eager to make progress. I turned around and ran to the ring to fight with my personal guards. I always had to find the venue on the ring, otherwise how could the government face?
Huo Jun is quite confident in his martial arts, especially in the past year, as he performed well, he has been praised by Liu Qi many times and obtained a high-level practice technique.
This is a cultivation technique that can reach the highest level of magical powers, and is considered a bloodline cultivation technique of this level.
Huo Jun was naturally as if he had the most treasure, and he practiced diligently whenever he had free time.
After more than a year of hard practice, although his strength has only reached the first-class mid-level level, it can be considered as rapid progress.
Looking around the world, he has the courage to claim that he can rank among the 100.
In Guiyang, it is very likely that he is the strongest master!
Then, he was slapped in the face by a strong man from the Yi tribe who had lived in deep mountains and dense forests for a long time, and was defeated in the ring battle!
Although he was a little careless about the enemy, he quickly tried his best when he came to this, but he was at a disadvantage in terms of strength, speed and agility, and he did not dare to lose in the end.
He felt incredible...
The soldiers who followed him also reflected this. They just lost and there was nothing to say.
Huo Jun quickly realized that the other party should have done it on purpose.
Damn, any barbarian tribe has a strong man who can defeat first-class middle-level military generals. Who believes it?
Obviously, if the other party did not do it deliberately, it would be doing it with the flow.
I feel angry but I don’t feel uncomfortable. Fortunately, the Yiren tribe opposite did not show any bad faces, otherwise this time the matter would definitely not end well.
However, Huo Jun did not intend to give up easily...
Liu Qi had considered that the current situation would occur, so he gave an order early on: It doesn’t matter if there is a problem, just report it in time and deal with it in time!
"Don't be self-righteous. There are some things you can't handle alone!"
"Don't underestimate the barbarians in the deep mountains and dense forests. They are all inherited to the Jiuli tribe that was in the Battle of Lu. Who knows what powerful means can be passed on?"
I can only say that fortunately, the one who encountered such an embarrassing thing was Huo Jun, who had always been cautious. If it were the arrogant Wei Yan, he would never bow his head and give in easily without hitting him.
Even if Huo Jun was defeated, his attitude was still not humble and said nothing, and he told the other party not to act recklessly, and he would not dare to speak out loud and ask for special preferential treatment and status.
There was no way, the personal guards around him and the soldiers who rushed over could condense the military spirit by simply forming a formation. That terrifying power was not a joke.
Even if the strong man from Huo Jun defeated Huo Jun, he would not have the confidence to attack the formation and his military energy would almost turn into a powerful army in the form of an ancient beast.
On the other hand, the news was delivered to Liu Qi within one day at a speed of 5,000 miles.
Don’t doubt that under the average level of the official road, the feudal dynasty had an urgent passage of four hundred miles, six hundred miles, or even eight hundred miles.
How could Liu Qi forget such an emergency passage?
He deliberately used talisman means and the mechanism technique to create a high-speed mechanism speed, which could carry two passengers at a time, and could transmit emergency information at a highway of up to 5,000 miles per day, up to 5,000 miles.
I've tried it before, and the results are quite good.
This time, this is the first time that Huo Jun has used such emergency notification methods within the Jiangxia army.
Therefore, after reading the urgent report, Liu Qi immediately responded and summoned all first-class and second-class generals such as Wei Yan to Guiyang to see the power of the strong man of the Yi people.
"Empress, will this kind of action hurt the morale of the generals?"
Pang Tong privately reminded: "It is better to send generals who can stabilize the situation or have the confidence to win to take charge!"
"Don't worry, Shi Yuan, I'll go over and take a look this time!"
Liu Qi said calmly: "Guiyang is already close to the heart of the core of 100,000 mountains. Where did the barbarians suddenly make such a fuss? Who knows what they think?"
"The envoy means..."
Pang Tong was a little surprised and disbelief: "Does those barbarians still have ambitions?"
"Didn't you say that they have inherited the skills of the Jiuli tribe at that time!"
Liu Qi said with ease: "The biggest possibility is probably to shock our hands, don't stretch too long!"
As for the others, he had never considered it.
There are indeed a large number of barbarians, and the four counties in Jingnan together are probably millions.
But so what?
There are hundreds of barbarian tribes, but they cannot act in a unified manner.
In other words, millions of barbarians are simply a mess of sand. What should we use to fight against the Jiangxia army?
At most, just strive for a relaxed living environment.
I don’t want the Jiangxia army to go deep into their core sphere of influence, but I don’t want to completely offend the Jiangxia army to death, otherwise I will barter from such a fair and just way?
Because I had collected information well before, I received an emergency report from Huo Jun this time and immediately realized what was going on.
It is estimated that the mysterious witch sect took action.
Only the mysterious witch sect can cultivate strong men who defeated Huo Jun.
The original Wuxi Yi King Shamoke was stronger than Huo Jun, but that guy was definitely a talented existence. He also practiced the physical skills inherited by the witchcraft, otherwise he would not be so powerful.
The true core witch sect powerhouses, such as the Southern Barbarian Meng Huo, have a sudden bone, and are absolutely amazingly strong. Even peerless generals may not have done them.
I just don’t know how powerful the witch sect powerhouses that appeared this time were?
Liu Qi acted quickly. After making a decision, he took the three thousand guards to set off immediately without any intention of delaying.
Originally, Pang Tong wanted to keep up, but his health was not good enough and he could not withstand the high-intensity marches that Liu Qi and his party had traveled thousands of miles a day.
However, it took two days for Liu Qi and Sanqian Guards to come to Guiyang County.
This is the benefit of complete renovation of official roads and complete transportation networks.
When he saw Huo Jun, this guy looked pretty good. At least he had the mental organization to build a temporary camp to welcome his colleagues from the army to arrive.
"I am ashamed!"
When meeting Liu Qi alone, Huo Jun said with shame and embarrassment: "I don't want to fall apart this time!"
"I don't blame you this time. I didn't expect that the Witch Sect sent so many powerful people!"
Looking at the deep mountains and dense forests, the sky emits rich blood light, which is a vision triggered by the lack of hidden breath.
With just a little sensing, you can clearly perceive the power of the body.
After a moment of thinking, Liu Qi realized at least two top-notch masters.
"What, the master of the Witch Cult?"
Huo Jun was shocked, but a look of surprise appeared on his face.
"If it weren't for the powerful witch sect, how could you be defeated in the ring?"
Liu Qi said funny: "You don't have to worry about it. They are prepared this time, and the goal is not just you!"
"Are you sure?"
"Don't worry, this time you just let your experience the powerful witch sects, so as not to be caught off guard when you encounter it in the future!"
Huo Jun nodded silently, and his face looked much better.
Since he knew that the other party was intentional, with his first-class mid-level strength, he could not compete with the mysterious witch sect at all. Huo Jun is still very self-aware of this.
Sometimes, if you don’t have enough strength and don’t even have the qualifications to speak, this time, this is the case, otherwise Liu Qi would not have come so quickly to take charge of the overall situation, and even summoned all the generals with some strength, and didn’t know how to use it.
