Chapter 715 Yizhou Topographic Map

It turns out that this is a map of mountains and rivers, and it is not an ordinary map. The drawings on it are very clear, and are different from ordinary maps. It even has the military equipment of each city, the garrison generals, and many large and small places entering and leaving Sichuan and Shu. Road, it can be said that if anyone masters this map, it will be easy to capture Yizhou.

"Brother Yongnian, this map?" Although Meng Da had already been dissatisfied with Liu Zhang, he couldn't help but be deeply shocked when he saw such a detailed map.

"Brother Zidu, it's not that Zhang is disloyal to Liu Zhang, but that Liu Zhang is really incompetent."

"Han Xin and Chen Ping were both pillars of the Han Dynasty, but they were originally under the command of King Xiang. Only because King Xiang could not use them, they defected to Gaozu. If they followed King Xiang, they would probably be destroyed by Gaozu as well."

Zhang Song narrowed his eyes and said, "Brother Zidu, do you want to be Han Xin, Chen Ping, or Long Qie?"

Meng Da's face became gloomy for a while, and he finally made a decision.

"Isn't it rebellion? Just do it!"

The next day, outside Chengdu.

"Haha, I will send it here. Please don't send it far. Zhang will guide the angel on how to get out of Sichuan."

"It's easy to talk about. If the general and His Majesty know that Zhou Mu is so loyal and patriotic, they will definitely reward him."

Liu Zhang and Sima Lang were polite outside the city for a while, and then Sima Lang mounted his horse, surrounded by dozens of Huben guards who had come, and left under Liu Zhang's watch.

"call"

After seeing Sima Lang off, Liu Zhang breathed a sigh of relief and took out his silk handkerchief to wipe the sweat from his forehead.

Zhang Song was also following Sima Lang. He and Sima Lang were chatting and laughing, and seemed to be having a very good conversation. Seeing this scene from a distance, Liu Zhang seemed to feel relieved. Zhang Song should be able to do it, right?

"Haha, the ancients said that clouds and seas cannot be measured, and people cannot be measured by their appearance. Zhang Zhengzheng is just such a person."

After talking with Zhang Song for a while, Sima Lang's eyes lit up and he admired Zhang Song quite a lot.

"Haha, I can't keep up with the angels. The angels are from a prominent family in Hanoi, and Song is just a commoner."

"Liu Yizhou is able to send troops this time, which shows that he still cares about the imperial court. The general will definitely be rewarded."

"Haha, it should be, it should be."

Zhang Song just smiled and said nothing more.

It was extremely difficult and dangerous when Sima Lang came. Although Liu Yan widened the plank road during his lifetime, entering Sichuan was still difficult and dangerous. In addition, Sima Lang did not know the road, so entering Sichuan became extremely difficult. But with Zhang Song guiding the way, the journey suddenly became much easier for the group of people waiting.

About a month later, the two finally arrived in Luoyang.

"As expected of our Han capital, it is indeed magnificent."

Looking up, Zhang Song couldn't help but sigh with emotion when he saw the tall, continuous buildings with what looked like houses.

"Haha, Dong Zhuo set fire to half of Luoyang City, so the general ordered the planning of a new city and specially built a new trading area in Luoyang City. There was an endless stream of people there from morning to night."

Sima Lang introduced: "In addition to festivals, there are night markets every month on the third and third day of the month, with thousands of lights and it is very lively."

"I always put emphasis on the basics and ignore the weak, but the general actually attaches so much importance to businessmen?" Zhang Song asked a little strangely.

Sima Lang chuckled and said: "The general said that merchants are not just those who pursue fame and fortune. Traveling between various places can promote the circulation of goods. Therefore, many merchant policies have been introduced. However, merchants must register with the government and pay 10% every year. The proceeds greatly enriched the national treasury.”

Zhang Song was thoughtful, and after hearing this introduction, he became even more curious about this general whom he had never met before.

Sima Lang led Zhang Song to the palace to meet the emperor first, and then went directly to Liu Ye's general's mansion.

"I'm under the command of Sima Lang, and I'm taking Zhang Song from Yizhou to ask for an audience with the general."

Guan Hai, the gatekeeper, nodded and said solemnly: "You guys wait here, I will inform the general."

After Guan Hai left, Zhang Song couldn't help but ask: "Mr. Boda, who is this?"

"This is Guan Hai, the guardian of the army. He usually protects the general when traveling, and he is a close associate of the general." Sima Lang said in a low voice.

Zhang Song snorted and said with emotion: "He is a true brave man."

Not long after, Guan Hai came out and said to the two of them: "The general is waiting in the study. You two, please come in."

Sima Lang and Zhang Song walked in together, but Zhang Song felt more and more surprised because Liu Ye's mansion was really incompatible with his identity. The general is the pillar of the imperial court, and his status is only lower than that of the emperor. However, Liu Ye's general's mansion is inconspicuous from the inside out, not luxurious at all, and can even be said to be simple.

You know, Liu Zhang's Prefectural Mufu is luxurious and extravagant. Thousands of people were used to build it. If there is no special person to guide the way, you may get lost even if you walk in. According to others, it is said that Liu Yan had evil intentions at the time, so the Zhoumu Palace he built was a small palace, which was more than a hundred times more luxurious than the General Palace.

Entering the study, Zhang Song and Sima Lang lowered their heads and said, "I'd like to pay my respects to the general."

"Well, please get up, Boda and Yongnian, you're welcome."

Zhang Song couldn't help but be surprised when he heard the sound.

"General, do you know what I mean next?"

You must know that Liu Ye and Zhang Song have never met each other, and Zhang Song is just a worker in Yizhou, and his status is not very prominent. How did he know his surname?

Liu Ye smiled: "Yongnian is a famous scholar in Yizhou, and his reputation spreads far and wide. How could I not know about it?"

Liu Ye was so polite to Zhang Song not because of anything else, but because he knew Zhang Song's character.

In "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms", although Zhang Song dedicated the map of Sichuan's mountains and rivers to Liu Bei, it was actually Cao Cao who was dominating the Central Plains who he went to see first. It's just that Cao Cao didn't think highly of Zhang Song, so Zhang Song had no choice but to go to Jingzhou to meet Liu Bei. In fact, Liu Bei was not his first choice.

In view of this, Liu Ye naturally wanted to be more polite to Zhang Song.

Seeing Liu Ye like this, Zhang Song couldn't help but choked up and almost shed tears.

"Song is ugly and despised by many people in the world, but the general treats him like a spring breeze."

After saying that, Zhang Song suddenly fell to the ground, his forehead hit the ground hard, making a "dong" sound, and even Liu Ye was startled.

"The general treats Song like this. Song has nothing to repay. After thinking about it, there is only one thing on my body that can repay the general."

Zhang Song raised his head, slowly took out a scroll from his sleeve, and held it up with both hands.

"This is?" Liu Ye pretended not to know.

"This is a topographic map of Yizhou's mountains and rivers that Song spent several years working on." Zhang Song assured, patting his chest: "With this map, Yizhou will be like a treasure trove in the eyes of the general!"
