Chapter 344
Liu Xun was beheaded, and there was no turmoil in Chengdu.
Liu Zhang, the Duke of Anle, was still the same as before, staying in the mansion, and no one went to his mansion to comfort him.
In Liu Xun's mansion, only the housekeeper went to collect the body, hastily buried it, and set up a spiritual hall at home.
The former officials of Yizhou, Fei Guan, Zhang Song, Meng Da, Dong He, Wu Ban, Wu Yi, and others also did not go to mourn. It's not because the world is cold, or people go to tea and cold, but everyone is busy, and Liu Xun's practice is unpopular.
If he hadn't gone his own way, how could Zhang Ren, Huang Quan, Ma Chao, Yang Huai and others have rebelled, and Chengdu would have been spared from this military disaster.
After the Han king ruled, the people supported it, rewarded farming and weaving, and developed commerce, these policies were publicized by Zhang Song and other officials, everyone was well known, everyone rejoiced, who would still call the former son Liu Xun, and even people began to hate him.
Chengdu's terrain is flat, but it is surrounded by mountains.
Facing Liu Bei's 100,000-strong army, Deng Ai, Fa Zheng, and Li Yan quickly made a response strategy.
Li Yan led Wu Ban, Wu Yi and an army of 20,000 to garrison Qingcheng Mountain, northwest of Chengdu. Wang Ping led Liao Hua Zhoucang and an army of 20,000 to garrison Mount Emei, southwest of the capital city.
Qingcheng Mountain and Emei Mountain seemed to be the two gates of Chengdu, and if they were closed, it would be easy for Liu Bei's army to come in, but it would be difficult to get out.
Yizhou is full of dangers, Zhang Ji and Zhang Yi are stationed in Luo County, Cheng Gongying is stationed in Jiange, and Yan Yan is stationed in Jiangzhou, so the layout, once Liu Bei comes in, he will be unable to escape, unless he completely takes Yizhou or Chengdu.
Qingcheng Mountain was originally a strategic place, and Zhang Daoling once preached on this mountain. However, after Liu Zhang and Zhang Lu turned against each other, they abandoned the place, because Zhang Lu was Zhang Daoling's grandson, and now Li Yan rebuilt this place into a dangerous pass.
Zhang Song, Dong He, Dong Yun, Fei Yi and others were very efficient, and it could really be said that the soldiers and horses did not move, and the grain and grass went first. When Li Yan and Wang Ping's army had just started, grain and grass, armor, and equipment had already been transported to Qingcheng Mountain and Emei Mountain.
At the same time, according to the specifications of the Luoyang Han Royal Mansion, a Ministry of Engineering was established in Chengdu, temporarily in charge of Dong He, mainly to create some weapons.
Once the weapons of the Han army are consumed, they must be replenished. Accustomed to new weapons, those swords, guns and halberds in the treasury of Chengdu City, they still can't look at it.
The treatment has improved, craftsmen are easy to find, and the technical content, such as crossbows, invincible heavenly thunder, etc., these people will definitely not be able to do it, but bows and arrows, including the production of Han knives, these craftsmen can quickly learn.
At the same time, a secret team, escorting even crossbows, invincible heavenly thunder and other big killing weapons also set out for Chengdu.
Liu Bei had an army of 100,000, and there were wise men like Zhuge Liang, 10,000 enemies like Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, and Ma Chao, as well as barbarian soldiers under the Southern Barbarian King Meng Yu. Although Liu Jian was not afraid, he did not despise them. It is not easy to annihilate Liu Bei in a battle, nor can it be ended in a short time, so it is necessary to be prepared to fight a protracted war.
And Liu Jun has not been idle in the past two days, and Wu Ran, the princess of Xinna, is a talented woman and a lady. Widowed for many years, the original heart has slowly died.
However, after all, she was still young, and Liu Jun's fire ignited the long-suppressed enthusiasm in her heart, erupting like a volcano. Every night, the two had to linger for a long time.
During the day, Liu Jun took Wu Ran and played in Chengdu City. With Deng Ai and Fa Zheng in military affairs and Zhang Song and others in government affairs, Liu Jun was completely relieved.
Although there was a fierce battle just a few days ago, the whole city is still very prosperous, after all, since the Yellow Turban Rebellion, there have been relatively few battles here. Moreover, since the Western Han Dynasty, the literary style in the south has prevailed.
When the literati gather, it is indispensable to drink and give poetry, so there are many pubs here. It continues to this day, and the food is famous.
In his previous life, Liu Jun was a special soldier and did not like food, but he had been to Chengdu several times, and all kinds of food still left a deep impression on him.
Therefore, taking advantage of this opportunity, Liu Jun plans to taste the cuisine of Chengdu in this era.
In order not to cause a riot, Liu Hu took two guards, and Wu Ran and five others dressed up as a rich family husband and wife and their entourage.
Of course, there were hundreds of people in the forbidden army, all dressed up as ordinary people, merchants, etc., mixed in the flow of people nearby.
At the turn of spring and summer, there was a drizzle last night. This morning, clear clouds were floating in the sky, and the sun was shining on some of the ancient trees in the city, and the leaves appeared extremely green. Liu Jun and his group walked around for about half an hour, feeling a little tired, so they wanted to find a pub to sit down.
"Lord... Son...... That pub is good!" Liu Hu pointed ahead.
Liu Qi saw that it was indeed a luxury restaurant, taller than the buildings on both sides, about three floors, and there were three gilded characters on the wide gate - Zuixianlou.
"Okay, let's go to the Zuixianlou!" As
soon as Liu Jun and the other five people entered, the hotel's junior two immediately welcomed them warmly. Judging from their lineage, the identity is definitely not ordinary. Either the children of rich merchants or the children of official eunuchs, Xiao Er dared to snub and directly greeted the second floor.
Liu Jian found that on the main hall on the second floor, there was actually this poem, and the framing technique was good, and the writing was in the flying white body that is popular today. The whole piece is about four feet high and more than nine feet long, and it is a banner.
Next to this banner, many scribes are reading.
"Gongzi has good eyesight, this is exactly a good poem "Alone Under the Moon" written on the spot by the King of Han when he was greeting his relatives in Jiangdong when he participated in the Mingyuelou poetry meeting. As soon as this poem came out, it shocked all the Jiangdong talents, and they didn't even dare to write poetry in the future. Xiao Er saw that Liu Jun was very concerned about this poem and hurriedly explained.
"It really is a good poem
!" "The talent of the King of Han is really impressive!"
"A pot of wine between flowers, drinking alone without blind dates, toasting to the bright moon, and three people to Yingcheng!
Wu Ran also studied poetry since he was a child, and naturally he could see the excellence of this poem, and he respected his husband Liu Jun next to him.
And Liu Hu is as always adoring.
Liu Jian was a little embarrassed, and he couldn't help apologizing to Shixian Li Bai in his heart.
"Gentlemen, please see, all the poems of the King of Han hanging on the wall here are not only five words, but also seven words, although the King of Han has not written many poems, but each capital can be called a masterpiece of heaven, unparalleled in contemporary times, comparable to Qu Yuan. At this time, the boss of Zuixianlou appeared, "Reading the poem of the King of Han and drinking Wanli fragrant wine is a great pleasure in life!"
"Bring all the good Hunan dishes!" The
scribes suddenly became excited, and the hall was immediately full.
