Three Kingdoms: The Reverse Son of the Guan Family, Dragon Blessing Jingxiang

A day and night of urgent travel.

Guan Lin's motorcade has arrived at Public Security County.

This city and county, located on the south bank of the middle reaches of the Yangtze River, was known as the "Sundao of the Seven Provinces" in later generations, and the prefect here was Fu Shiren, who was listed as one of the "Top Ten Wicked Persons" along with Mi Fang in history.

The team was taking a break at the moment, and Guan Lin... could finally rest for a while.

He followed Zhang Xingcai to a plum forest.

In winter, it’s the season of plum blossoms blooming again, which is gorgeous and lovely.

Regarding Gong'an County, Guan Lin knew that it was originally called "Plum Garden" and was famous for its plum blossoms...

In the fifth year of Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty, the name was changed to "Chiling County". In Wang Mang's new dynasty, it was changed to "Chilu County". In the third year of Gengshi, the years when the Great Magister Liu Xiu rose to prominence, it was changed back to "Chiling County".

Until the Three Kingdoms period, Liu Bei set up camp at the "Youjiangkou" here, and eventually changed the name of the mausoleum to "Gong'an", which means "Zuo Gong set up camp here"...

At that time, Liu Bei's title was General Zuo. Few people called him Uncle Liu Huang, but quite a few people called him Duke Zuo!

The reason why Guan Lin stopped here.

It was Guan Lin who felt a little emotional.

According to the original trajectory of history, Lu Meng crossed the river in white and stabbed his father in the back.

Mi Fang, who was stationed in Jiangling, surrendered directly, which was one of the reasons why his father Guan Yu was defeated in Maicheng.

And Fu Shiren from the "Public Security County" did not go to support his father, which was another main reason why his father Guan Yu stopped cooking.

It can be said…

Fu Shiren, Gongan County, is also a link that Guan Lin cannot avoid if he wants to change this period of history!

Speaking of which, Guan Lin has never seen the police prefect Fu Shiren before?

Rather…

Be the first to arrive at the starting point of all this, "Public Security County"!

The reason why this is the starting point is because when Liu Bei borrowed Jingzhou Nanjun from Sun Quan, his original territory was only the city of Gong'an, and the Sun-Liu alliance broke down... The most intuitive reason is that he "borrowed Jingzhou", which is Jingzhou's The question of belonging.

Public Security County is the origin of all this!

"well…"

Guan Lin let out a faint sigh.

Zhang Xingcai asked curiously: "Isn't Yun Qi annoying my father? That's right... Along the way, he always asked you to talk about "The God of War: The Biography of Zhang Fei". If you want me... I will be annoyed to death! But... Dad That's it, when you encounter something that interests you, you don't blame him for being impatient and impatient."

"Sister Xingcai, you are overthinking it." Guan Lin smiled and excused himself: "I was inspired by this plum forest when I saw it... There are several plum trees in the corner, and Ling Han is blooming alone..."

at this time…

A fast horse roared up.

When the knight on horseback saw Guan Lin, he quickly turned over and dismounted, "We have found the Fourth Young Master. Guan Gong ordered me to deliver the urgent message to the Fourth Young Master!"

Well…

An urgent message from Dad?

Guan Lin quickly took it and unfolded it slowly.

The above content is astonishingly - "Soochow defeated Hefei, Cao Wei retreated in Shouchun!"

this…

Guan Lin was slightly startled and muttered in his heart.

"——This Sun Quan Biyan'er is very fast. 』

"——Cao Zhi's speed is a bit slower. 』

Guan Lin couldn't help but squint his eyes.

Of course, this final result was something Guan Lin could have expected.

It’s nothing more than a question of who owns Hefei City.

This Guan Lin doesn't care...

What Guan Lin is really concerned about is... Soochow and Cao Wei cannot survive in peace.

——Gotta fight!

——Continuous and uninterrupted beating!

The more intense the fight, the better…

Similar to the original trajectory of history, in the past few decades, Cao Wei attacked Ruxukou four times, and Sun Quan attacked Hefei City five times. Guan Lin felt... Is this playing Shu Han?

——It made me feel lonely!

Is the pressure not entirely on the side of "Prime Minister Zhuge"?

Based on this consideration, Guan Lin is more inclined to Sun Quan to capture Hefei.

so…

In the Huainan region, the area from Shouchun to Hefei is bound to become a new "meat grinder", replacing the originally relatively peaceful area from "Ruxukou" to "Hefei".

This is based on geostrategic deployment.

To put it simply, what Guan Lin wants to do is to prevent Soochow and Cao Wei from crossing the river...

Once they crossed the river, both sides became more worried. Cao Wei did not dare to fight during the high water period, and Soochow did not dare to fight during the dry season. After a back and forth... they could no longer fight!

But if the whole of Huainan is used as a battlefield, it would be interesting!

Guan Lin couldn't help but put his chin in his hand.

『——The current situation is very good. From now on... the pressure will be on both Cao Wei and Soochow! 』

Just thought of this...

Zhang Xingcai had already asked: "What is the urgent matter? Can I see it?"

"Nothing?" Guan Lin spread his hands, "Sun Quan captured Hefei..."

ah…

Zhang Xingcai was startled, and his big eyes blinked continuously, as if full of disbelief.

——'Just him? Is it true? 』

Guan Lin seemed to see through Zhang Xingcai's state of mind. He said calmly: "It's like this. If we can't defeat it, Soochow will no longer be worthy of being our ally!"

Speaking of which…

Just about to get back to the carriage.

It's almost time to rest, and it's time to move on... The pressure is on Cao Wei and Soochow, but a new challenge is also on the newly promoted Jiangxia governor.

You know... Jiangxia is right next to Huainan!

It is no exaggeration to say that as long as he has some soldiers... Guan Lin has a lot of room for maneuver!

But at this moment...

"Fourth Young Master..." A middle-aged man's voice came from behind, his tone was low and thick...

Guan Lin heard that it was Zhuge Jin and quickly turned around, "Mr. Zhuge."

"I have been wanting to ask to see the young master just now, but I didn't get the chance. Finally... I finally met the young master!" Zhuge Jin exchanged some greetings and then said: "My chief governor wanted to see the young master, but he was ill, so he could only ask four people. The young master went to his carriage to talk..."

this…

Guan Lin looked back at the urgent document in his hand out of the corner of his eye, muttering to himself.

——"Most likely, the Grand Governor has also received information from Hefei, so that's good...at least for a short period of time, there is no need to worry too much about Jingnan's protection, and it buys a lot of time for Changsha to build a new city." 』

Just as Guan Lin thought...

The strongest alliances often have common enemies.

It is mentioned in political textbooks - there are no eternal friends, only eternal interests!

It is also true that the enemy of your enemy is your friend.

It can be compared to a rabbit and a stuffed ball!

By analogy... the alliance between Shu Han and Soochow will become rock solid only under one situation, and that is when both sides... both hope to expand their territories northward.

This is crucial.

Guan Yu, the father in history, made this mistake...

Going further north from Jingzhou is actually useless.

Because there is no support from Soochow...

Not only is there no support, but... Soochow is blocked from going north, so it will definitely set its sights on Jingnan.

As for Jingzhou, it would be impossible to defend against the simultaneous attacks of Soochow and Cao Wei.

Think about it from this perspective…

Guan Lin must help Soochow see the hope of the Northern Expedition.

At least in the past few years, before they can encroach on Cao Wei's territory enough, Shu Han and Soochow must have a close comrade-in-arms relationship.

Thoughts on this…

Guan Lin raised his hands and faced Zhuge Jin, "Guan Lin is a junior. If the Governor of Lu wants to see me, just send someone to call me? There is no reason for seniors to come to ask for an audience. If this is spread, no one will poke me at Guan Lin." Backbone?”

Well…

Zhuge Jin was startled by Guan Lin's words.

He thought to himself:

——"Your reputation as a treacherous son is about to spread throughout all nine states. Are you still afraid of being stabbed in the back?" 』

While thinking, Guan Lin greeted Zhang Xingcai and asked her to get back to the carriage first, while Guan Lin slowly walked towards Lu Su's carriage.

Zhuge Jin was supposed to keep up.

"Father--"

At this moment, a familiar yet unfamiliar voice suddenly sounded in Zhuge Jin's ears.

Subconsciously, Zhuge Jin's heart trembled, and his eyes were about to be soaked with tears.

But he quickly regained his composure and turned around.

"Ke'er, you shouldn't call me that...it's against the rules."

"Haha..." Zhuge Ke said with a smile: "If you become a teacher once, you will become a father for life. Father, if you become a father for a day, you will naturally become a father for life..."

Zhuge Jin's heart warmed up, but he scolded: "Imaginative words? Where did you learn this fallacy?"

"Haha..." Zhuge Ke grinned, "I have been following Mr. Yunqi recently, and all I have learned are some fallacies, but... I feel that these fallacies are more in line with today's way of serving the world than the ancient sages!"

…

Over here, Guan Lin entered Lu Su's carriage.

Over there, Fu Shiren, the governor of Gong'an County, was also in a plum forest. The huge plum forest was like the colorful clouds in the sky.

Fu Shiren was sitting under the plum tree, telling dozens of guards about his glorious past.

One of his confidants asked. "General Fu...According to your words, Changshan Zhao Zilong, who is full of courage and has seven entrances and seven exits, is not the fourth brother of our Mr. Xuande?"

"Of course not." Fu Shiren waved his hand rather boldly and pointed at himself, "I am our lord's fourth brother."

Speaking of which…

He began to tell his confidants the story of how he met his lord Liu Bei.

Fu Shiren was from Guangyang County, Youzhou, and later generations said he was from Beijing.

He is not from a local aristocratic family, has no culture, and does not know how to read.

In the Han Dynasty, if such a lintel... wanted to stand out, it could only rely on bravery.

Fu Shiren has practiced martial arts since he was a child.

One day, he heard that dozens of young people in the village were going to Zhuo County in Zhuo County. It seemed that Zhuo County was recruiting soldiers.

Fu Shiren thought that the opportunity had come... so he also rushed to Zhuoxian County.

When we arrived at the recruitment platform in Zhuoxian County, there was a sea of ​​people.

There were three people sitting on the stage. Those who knew them said that these three people were great...

At this point, Fu Shiren changed his silence. He stood up and began to speak passionately.

"Why are these three people so bad?"

"Haha, one of them is the county magistrate of Zhuo County named Gongsun Zan, one is the Liu family, the largest family in Zhuo County, a lineage of the Han Dynasty, after Prince Jing of Zhongshan, the patriarch is Liu Yuanqi, and the other one is the leader of the Youzhou Chamber of Commerce named' Su Shuang'!"

"At that time, I was muttering in my heart, this recruitment is great. A county magistrate, a powerful family, and a big business leader, they all got together and stamped their feet, making the whole Zhuo County tremble. This time we are in the right place. So I asked them, why haven’t they started yet? So someone told me that the real master hasn’t come yet? I thought to myself, I wonder if these three are not the real master?”

At this moment…

A confidant asked curiously: "Then...who is the real owner?"

Fu Shiren smiled lightly and did not answer. He continued: "At that time, a dozen people came on horseback. The leader was about twenty years old, with very big ears. He was riding a tall horse and was wearing brocade clothes. He was followed by others. The two hounds look like they just came back from hunting. Someone said, no... the real owner is here, it’s Mr. Xuande!"

ah…

As soon as this statement came out, many people were surprised and asked quickly: "Didn't everyone say that our lord was selling straw sandals back then? Why..."

"You know nothing." Fu Shiren said, "Our lord is selling straw sandals with a hammer? He is the nephew of Liu Yuanqi, the patriarch of the first family in Zhuo County, a classmate of the county magistrate Gongsun Zan, and a famous scholar from Zhuo County Lu Zhi’s disciple is a good friend of the great businessman Su Shuang, what kind of straw sandals does he sell?”

At this time, someone asked again: "Then... why do we need to recruit troops?"

"It's not because of the Yellow Turban Rebellion. The county magistrate, local wealthy families, and businessmen all support our lord in establishing a militia camp. They came here specifically to support us and help our lord recruit troops!"

Speaking of which.

A group of confidants understood and quickly sighed: "Oh...it turns out that General Fu has joined our lord so early!"

"Hahahaha..." Fu Shiren laughed, "Otherwise, I am our lord's fourth brother. At that time, Guan Yunchang, Zhang Yide, me, and the great businessman Su Shuang's nephew Su Fei, They are all commanders of our lord's camp, each commanding a hundred troops. Jian Yong is a staff officer. Later, Su Fei defected to Huang Zu. Who is that Zhao Zilong you are talking about?"

"He was just seconded by Gongsun Zan to our lord. In the end, because his brother died, he went back to observe filial piety for several years. It was when our lord took refuge in Yuan Shao that Zhao Zilong followed him. In terms of qualifications, He joined ten years later than me! How can he compare with me?"

Fu Shiren was quite embarrassed at this moment...

It's exactly what he said.

He was one of the first batch to follow Liu Bei, and he was ranked according to his seniority.

Liu Bei is the eldest, Guan Yu is the second, Zhang Fei is the third, Fu Shiren should be tied for fourth with Jian Yong...

Others such as Zhao Yun, Ma Chao, Huang Zhong... they all deserve to stand aside!

But...when it comes to this.

A personal guard asked, "Then why...now General Guan, General Zhang, General Zhao and even...later General Ma Chao and General Huang Zhong, they were named generals by the lord, but General Fu...but..."

This is a very common question, and it is also where the guards are confused.

But it was a bit harsh to Fu Shiren's ears.

In an instant, a hint of worry flashed in his eyes.

"well--"

He couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

The reason for this...he knew it all too well.

This is because when they were suffering, they were Liu Bei's elders and the "clan"... But ever since Duke Xuande borrowed Jingzhou and even entered Shu.

--changed…

Everything has really changed.

Fu Shiren clearly felt that his lord Liu Bei was a lot alienated from him, and even alienated from many "veteran" level figures.

Fu Shiren also quietly inquired.

This is because today's Xuande Gong only reuses two factions.

One is the Dongzhou faction headed by Fazheng, Mengda, Huang Quan and Li Yan.

One is the Jingzhou faction headed by Zhuge Liang, Pang Tong, and Ma Liang.

Except for Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, the two sworn brothers from Taoyuan, the rest of the veteran members were miserable. Even Jian Yong, who had followed Liu Bei all over the country in the early days, including Fu Shiren and Liu Bei, was about to become a mascot. .

Fu Shiren is the same as Mi Fang. Although he has some military power, he has no say in major matters and has no political energy.

Every time he thinks about this, Fu Shiren is unwilling to accept it!

But...

The relationship between Guan Yu and him was not good either.

——"Those Dongzhou and Jingzhou factions are just bullying me. Guan Yu, you are a veteran and we are following our lord. Why are you so crazy in front of me?" Do you have enough weight? 』

It is based on this mental journey.

He, Fu Shiren, has been completely frustrated in the past two years.

Elder!

This came from fighting Liu Bei all over the country.

How many times have we climbed out of the dead!

——"Alas... Mr. Xuande, have you ever considered the feelings of us old brothers?" 』

Fu Shiren couldn't help but sigh secretly:

——"We have fought with you for ten, twenty, and thirty years. We have endured hardships and never gave up...Why have you forgotten us now?" 』

It’s because of this injustice…

It's because Liu Bei changed.

Fu Shiren also changed. He no longer had "lofty" ideals. He began to resell arms, and he began to make a lot of money.

Yes, he has almost become a mascot in politics. Making some money...isn't it too much?

That’s often the case…

What an official loses politically will often get it back economically!

Fu Shiren... falls into this category.

"Why didn't General Fu say anything?" One of the guards saw Fu Shiren in a daze and asked quickly...

"Where were you talking about just now?" Fu Shiren calmed down and asked.

"Speaking of Zhao Zilong, he joined the company ten years later than General Fu... Speaking of General Fu's seniority!"

It seemed that Fu Shiren was unwilling to answer the question of the "Five Tiger Generals".

The guards shrewdly avoided that topic.

"Hahaha..." Fu Shiren forced a smile, "Come on, come on, let me tell you another story. When our lord was fighting against the rebellious Zhang Chun, he pretended to be dead after being injured on the battlefield. It was I who found a car after the battle. Bringing our lord back...this matter is so interesting!"

Because of the gloomy mood.

Because of the decline in political status...

Fu Shiren also became more and more outspoken, and he became daring to say anything.

Of course, Liu Bei's injury and fake death were not made up by him, it was a real thing.

This is recorded in Pei Songzhi's annotation "Dianlue" in "Three Kingdoms: Biography of the First Lord":

——"In the plains, Liu Ziping knew that Bei was brave. At that time, Zhang Chun rebelled, and Qingzhou was ordered to send troops to fight against Chun. He crossed the plains, and Ziping recommended Bei to engage in war. He followed him, and encountered thieves in the wild. Chuang Yang died in the middle of Bei. , after the thief left, the old friend carried him in his car, and he was spared."

——What a "Yang Death!"

…

…

Under the plum trees over there, Fu Shiren was talking about the glorious past, and then complained in his heart with great sadness about the injustice of the present.

Under the plum trees here...

Inside Lu Su's carriage.

"What--"

Guan Lin's voice suddenly burst out, and he seemed to be greatly surprised.

He was so startled that he jumped up in surprise, and his head suddenly hit the upper edge of the carriage...

With the sound of "dong", Guan Lin quickly covered his head.

But his eyes revealed a huge question mark.

He quickly asked Lu Su.

"Grand Governor, we don't want to play like this! I'm still not there yet... What kind of Sun Luban do you want me to marry?"

"I dare to...ah, can I marry this Sun Luban?"

yes…

Guan Lin thought about whether he would really marry Sun Luban.

The whole Jingzhou, the whole world, if not protected, will be "destroyed" by this daughter-in-law and turned into rubbish...or, even the rubbish will not be broken into pieces at all!

It’s no exaggeration to say…

In this era, with Guan Lin's status, marrying a wife is actually not that important anymore!

No matter how bad the marriage is, the most you can do is cut off half of your waist.

Damn it, if you really want to marry Sun Luban, it will cost you more than half your waist, it will be... terrible!

Facing such an excited Guan Lin...

Lu Su behaved quite calmly, "When Yuan Shu proposed marriage to Lu Bu, Yuan Shu's son was not even a crown prince, and Lu Bu's daughter was not even a hairpin... Well, age is not a problem when we get engaged!"

Speaking of this, Lu Su waved his hand, "Of course, if...Sun Luban can't do it, the Fourth Young Master can also take a look at Sun Luyu's portrait!"

…

…

(It’s not a problem to rush like this every day.)
