    After a period of calm, Yizhou began the fiercest fighting.

    Liu Bei was in Fucheng and defeated Liu Zhang's army.

    From then on, Liu Zhang's army began to shrink and take a defensive position, and Liu Bei took the opportunity to expand his power.

    At a banquet, Liu Beizhi said proudly: "We should be able to get Yizhou soon, right?"

    Fazheng, however, was very disrespectful and said: "Treating a crusade as a pleasure is not a benevolent soldier."

    Liu Bei was in high spirits, and Fa Zheng's words were like a basin of cold water.

    "King Wu conquered Zhou, singing and dancing in front of him, isn't he a teacher of benevolence and righteousness? What you said is not good, hurry up and get out!"

    Fazheng really left, but Liu Bei soon sobered up and sent someone to invite Fazheng back.

    After Fa Zheng came back, he immersed himself in eating and said nothing.  As for an apology, it is even more impossible.

    Liu Bei, who was rather thick-skinned, spoke first and asked, "Whose fault was it just now?"

    "Our common fault." Fa Zhengdao.

    Liu Bei laughed, and the incident was over, and the two settled their differences.

    The reason why Liu Bei is so proud is because he has the capital to be proud.

    After the fall of Fucheng, Liu Zhang sent Li Yan to supervise the troops at Mianzhu Pass.

    Mianzhu Pass is the gateway to Chengdu and its strategic position is very important.

    Li Yan was originally a county official in Nanyang County and was known for his talents.  After Li Yan abandoned his official position and went to Shu to join Liu Zhang, he was appointed as the county magistrate of Chengdu.

    When Liu Bei conquered Shu, Li Yan was promoted to guard by Liu Zhang and guarded Mianzhu.

    Mianzhu, who has a crossbow, can be said to be impregnable.

    Just when Liu Bei was frowning, Fazheng proposed to recruit Li Yan to surrender.

    This was originally something with a very low success rate, but I didn¡¯t expect Fa Zheng to be successful!

    It turns out that Li Yan and Wang Lei were in the same camp, and they both strongly opposed inviting Liu Bei to Shu.

    Later, the king was exhausted and remonstrated, but Liu Zhang was indifferent, and Li Yan felt a little tired.

    Faced with Fazheng¡¯s clever words, Li Yan agreed!

    Liu Zhang simply vomited blood. He sent Li Yan to Mianzhu to resist Liu Bei, but he surrendered directly and welcomed Liu Bei into the city.

    How could Liu Bei be unhappy?

    Not only that, Liu Bei also sent Zhang Fei to attack Jiangzhou, and Jiangzhou defender Yan Yan struggled to support him.

    The situation is great!

    That¡¯s why Liu Bei was so arrogant, saying to everyone he met: ¡°Thanks to the food provided by Marquis Dongyang, otherwise our army would not have been able to hold on for so long.¡±

    This is just an excuse Liu Bei found to comfort himself. After all, he spent a million gold.

    One million gold!

    It is almost all of Liu Bei¡¯s savings.

    Fortunately, the war is developing in Liu Bei's favor, and the money has not been wasted.

    The scale of the war in Yizhou continued to expand, and war reports continued to be sent to Liu Ke's case.

    Although Liu Ke had expected this, he really didn¡¯t know what to say to Liu Zhang.

    There are obviously resources and people are expected, but they often mess up everything.

    "It seems that Yizhou is really as my lord said, Liu Bei is going to win." Guo Jiadao, "It depends on whether Liu Zhang can make good use of the Chengdu defense battle and inflict a heavy blow to Liu Bei's army, so that there are still some chances for a comeback."

    "It would be great if this is the case." Liu Kedao.

    "Liu Zhang won't be so miserable, right?" Guo Jiadao, emptied Yizhou and bought so much armaments

    None of it seems to be working.

    "Send Liu Zhang a VIP card." Liu Kedao said, "Since he has spent so much money, we must give him some protection."

    "What is a VIP card?" Guo Jia asked.

    "After Liu Zhang's defeat, he can come to Yangzhou to settle." Liu Kedao.

    "I'm afraid Liu Bei won't agree, right? Doesn't this give us an excuse to attack Yizhou?" Guo Jiadao.

    "I can deal with him without having to tell him. It depends on how he behaves." Liu Kedao.

    "Okay." Guo Jiadao.

    Unexpectedly, Liu Ke¡¯s VIP card saved Liu Zhang¡¯s life, but also accelerated Liu Zhang¡¯s failure.

    Because after this guy has a way out, he will be like a salted fish

    Within a few days of his stable life, Liu Ke received an urgent shipment of 800 miles from Jizhou.

    "My lord, it's not good, there are already signs of locust plague in Jizhou." Lu Su said.

    "Tell me in detail." Liu Ke expressed concernDao said that this was his first time encountering such a disaster and he had no experience in dealing with it.

    ¡°At present, the hardest-hit area is still in Bingzhou. Changwen sent scouts to investigate, and they gradually moved to Jizhou.

    When locusts come, they are like a storm. Half of the sky is dark, like dark clouds covering the sky and blocking out the sun.

    A person stands in a pile of locusts, and soon his body is covered with insects, as if he is wearing a hard and thick armor.  "Lu Su said.

    This kind of disaster is really terrible.  In Yangzhou's official documents, exaggeration is absolutely not allowed, otherwise severe punishment will be imposed.

    From the memorial, Liu Ke could see that Chen Qun was struggling when reporting.

    "The long article brings together the experiences of old farmers in various counties. I am afraid that the locust plague will occur within half a month. At present, locust cubs have been found and are about to emerge, and their numbers are gradually increasing." Lu Su said.

    "I asked Chang Wen to pay attention to it a long time ago. Is there no measure at all?" Liu Kedao said.

    "Changwen still took some measures." Lu Su explained.

    The ancient practice was generally to dig trenches and fill them in.

    At the advice of the old farmer, Chen Qun dug deep ditches on both sides of the field, then drove the locusts from one end of the field to the other, and quickly buried them after they arrived in the ditch.

    Although this stupid method can eliminate a certain number of locusts, it is still insufficient for large-scale locust plagues.

    Although locusts are afraid of fire, they cannot be used on a large scale.

    "This level of action is not enough." Liu Kedao.

    "My lord, it is natural for the people to be afraid of the locust plague. If it were so easy to manage, the officials of the past dynasties would not have such a headache." Lu Su said.

    Since he could only use stupid methods, Liu Ke thought of a brilliant idea.

    ¡°Immediately gather volunteers in Yangzhou and go to Jizhou to prepare for catching locusts.¡± Liu Kedao.

    "Lord, this" Lu Su was speechless.

    "Listen to me, the locusts are purchased for 500 yuan per catty, and the Liu family will pay for it." Liu Kedao said, "And the number of locusts caught will be regarded as this year's assessment and military merit!"

    If you spend money to buy locusts, give it to military merit?

    Lu Su's three views have been refreshed. I'm afraid the Yangzhou Army is going crazy. It's just a welfare!

    "Now, immediately, gather enough troops to attack Jizhou." Liu Kedao.

    "I will handle it personally." Liu Ke added.

    This time, Lu Su rarely refuted Liu Ke and even supported Liu Ke's wandering.

    Fighting against the locust plague is everyone¡¯s responsibility, and Liu Ke can take the lead by taking action personally.

    As soon as the announcement came out, the whole army was in an uproar!

    There is such a good thing?

    And the protagonist's own pocket  Don't register for the good intention of the protagonist.

    So, within one day, the number of locust-catching volunteers reached 500,000!

    This is exhausting for the civil servants responsible for registration. Without the support of Yangzhou¡¯s efficiency, it would be impossible to complete it in one day.

    "This will be a perfect exercise!" Liu Kedao affirmed everyone's enthusiasm.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
