Chapter 284 Zhang Fei returns to Langzhong(1/3)

When Chen Ye arrived at the entrance of the palace, the palace was surrounded by craftsmen who were repairing the palace walls.

Since he no longer had the pressure to survive, Liu Bei now had spare money to make certain improvements to the palace, so naturally, the construction project of the Shuhan Palace began.

However, Liu Bei never forgot his goal, which was to conquer the Central Plains and return to the Liu family's old home, so he did not expand it, but cleaned it up and reorganized it, which will later be used as his real estate business in Shu.

"The Imperial Master is here, please."

There were not many eunuchs in the palace, but there were quite a few maids. Under the leadership of the maids, Chen Ye walked to the Hanwei Palace. He was a little worried about whether the yin energy here would affect Xiao Liu's character.

When Liu Chan received the notice, he already brought his textbooks and stood at the door, bowing to Chen Ye from afar.

"master!"

"Well, let's go in."

Chen Ye patted Liu Chan on the shoulder and walked with him into the courtyard.

"In the past two days, have you memorized everything you didn't know how to read?"

"Back to the master, according to the laptop, many students have already understood it and already know the concepts of acoustics, multiplication tables, etc.

There are some physics topics that I don’t have a concept of just by looking at them, and I want to verify them, but the big guy doesn’t have those things.

I asked my father, and he said that he didn’t have those things, only the master had them.”

"Oh? Verify physics? Let me see what topics you want to verify?"

Chen Ye was a little surprised that after only two days of studying physics, Liu Chan started to have the idea of ​​​​doing it. This is the talent of a scientist.

I wonder if he will become the next Carpenter Emperor?

Chatting with Liu Chan about physics topics, answering his doubts, and writing down what physics experiment equipment he wanted to buy for his young apprentice, the time gradually came to evening.

Chen Ye directly activated the time and space tunnel and traveled to reality.

On the other side of Langzhong, Zhang Fei and Wei Yan, carrying two soldiers, took a speedboat together and after eleven hours of sailing, they finally reached the waters of Langzhong.

The speedboat's hull was scratched everywhere, and large chunks of the red and white paint peeled off. It was obvious that Zhang Fei hit a lot of things along the way, and he was lucky that he didn't run aground.

Of course, it may have been stranded...

Looking at the gradually increasing number of boats, sterns, and familiar flags on the shore, Zhang Fei took a deep breath and felt that the air was filled with a sweet smell.

After staying in Langzhong for a long time, he has begun to feel like home. Although here, every day he wants to leave this boring place as soon as possible and wishes he could leave and never come back.

But when such a day comes, knowing that this is the last time that I have come back, I can't help but feel a little emotional. This is probably just nostalgia.

But Zhang Fei was still mumbling some words, which were what Chen Ye taught him.

There was a sergeant riding a pointed boat on the shore, and he spotted a strange friendly ship, and his oars were almost like an afterimage as they were approaching.

The reason why the speedboat has been running smoothly is not only because the speedboat is a separate ship, but also because the iron flagpole of the speedboat has a piece of Zhang Fei's name tied to it. The special color pattern means that this is Zhang Fei's car.

"Zhangzhou! Where are you from? Why are you flying the flag of a general?"

"You idiot! Grandpa has only been gone for a few days, but you don't recognize him anymore?"

"It's the general! The general is back!"

"Meet the general!"

"The general is back! The general is back!"

The soldiers on the shore were just ordinary sergeants. When they heard the sound, they ran to the shore and welcomed him.

"Hurry up and show me the way to stop the boat. I have something to tell you!"

"promise!"

Wei Yan looked at the sergeants on the shore. Most of them were shouting, but few of them were excited. Instead, they were a little scared. They looked at Zhang Fei, and most of them dodge. He couldn't help but look at Zhang Fei.

He didn't expect that the situation in Langzhong would be so serious. Zhang Fei had demoralized the army. According to the situation, this shouldn't be the case.

"Yide, haven't you noticed before that your lieutenants are afraid of you but have no respect for you?"

"I didn't think about this before, but now it seems I was careless."

Zhang Fei has also been reflecting on these past two days, and was reminded by Wei Yanyi. He looked at the sergeants on the shore and found that most of them were only cowardly and not loving towards him, which also made him feel a little irritated.

In the past, he had to be strict in running the army, because in his opinion, if the army made a mistake, it should be severely punished. This is the nature of the military camp.

Of course, he didn't want to admit it. The more reason was that he looked down on the sergeants and did not regard them as his equals. But isn't this normal?

But after Liu Bei's shock lesson yesterday, and his own death that was almost a joke in the Shu Han Dynasty, he began to think about it seriously.

After thinking about it, when Zhang Fei was leading the horse, he failed to hold the reins firmly, and the rope fell directly to the ground, and his guards quickly picked it up for him.

In the past, the bodyguard would rarely get scolded at this time, but unusually, he didn't get scolded today. Zhang Fei even gave him a gentle smile.

The bearded Zhang Fei smiled like this, which made the guards feel their hearts beating out of their chests, as if they had seen a ghost.

After Zhang Fei and Wei Yan rode horses to the school grounds, the guards finally came to their senses and looked at the guards next to them.

"The general was smiling at someone just now? Did you see it?"

"No, did you see it wrong?

Strange, why didn't the general blame you? Is he in a good mood?"

"The general must be in a good mood today. I think your majesty has granted you a rather small official position."

"Hurry up and follow us! The general is in a good mood now. He will be angry when he finds out that we are following too slowly."

A group of sergeants were noisy with each other and rode in pursuit of Zhang Fei, not daring to delay.

At the Langzhong military camp five miles away, most of the sergeants were training in the camp, while the rest were repairing the barracks and some were cooking. It was already evening.

Fan Qiang (jiang, not Jiang, it can also be Jiang) and Zhang Da were drinking in the barracks, drinking bad wine made by themselves. At this time, the two of them had already had a long-standing grudge against Zhang Fei.

As Zhang Fei's personal bodyguards, they are always on the front line of being beaten and scolded.

As long as Zhang Fei's instructions are not done well, or delayed or late, no matter what the reason, they will be beaten.

If in other places, it is normal for superiors to punish subordinates.

However, if someone punishes you, if it is light, it will teach you a lesson and get closer to your subordinates. Not only will your subordinates not be angry, but they will also know that their superiors value you.

If the punishment is severe and the future of others is ruined, the superior officer will also transfer the subordinates, and the subordinates will have no choice but to forget it.

But it was different with Zhang Fei. He turned blaming into insults and punishment into heavy punishment. He killed people but didn't transfer them away. He still kept others working around him.

Even though Zhang Fei is a literate person, he only treats people with a similar status and level to him. He treats the generals of the Guards Battalion like cattle and horses.

Ordinary sergeants, due to their superior-subordinate relationship and their not-so-close relationship with Zhang Fei, would not be punished often and had to make ends meet, so they tolerated it.

Fan Qiang and Zhang Da are different. They are closest to Zhang Fei and suffer from anger every day. The key is that their income is not high.

Adhering to the idea of ​​​​a penny, a share of effort, advanced-minded migrant workers cannot stand this nonsense.

If you dare to PUA me, and you don’t give me the money to be my grandson, I will cut off your head in exchange for money.

"Zhang Da, why do you think that birdman from your family has such a bad temper?

I was whipped last month and it hasn’t healed this month, and I still have a few scars that haven’t been torn off.”

"Who knows? If we were under General Guan, we wouldn't be beaten and scolded at will. Alas, we all came from the north with His Majesty, so why are we different?

I wish it was the bird-man who died in Jingzhou, so I might be able to show mercy and avenge him."

"Speaking of which, it is really a pity for General Guan. This time His Majesty summoned Zhang Yide to Chengdu to award a reward. I guess there is going to be a big war soon, right?"

Zhang Da's eyes widened when he heard Fan Qiang's words. In fact, Shuzhong had already felt the approaching war since before Liu Bei ascended the throne.

"Fan Qiang, which side do you think His Majesty will attack? Will he attack the Cao traitors?"

"Crunt Cao Cao's thieves? How to crusade? Have you ever fought? Besides fighting against Jingzhou, we Jingzhou soldiers have long wanted to go home.

Besides, no matter which side we attack, we in Langzhong will attack first. No matter which side we attack, we will still be defeated.

The traitor Cao occupied ten states in the world and had strong soldiers and horses. Sun Hou also had countless capable men under his command.

Where are your Majesty's men? General Guan is dead, and the only prime minister left is Zhang Yide. Hey, he was not good at the Battle of Hanzhong."

When Zhang Da heard Fan Qiang's words, he also became frizzy and rubbed his hair.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the Shu Han is the weakest and does not have many famous generals, so it is a pessimistic attitude towards leaving Shu.

Everyone also knows that it is not necessarily possible to win a battle after leaving Shu.

"Then do you think we should make some arrangements? For example, defect to Wu Hou in advance."

"Design? How to defect?"

We are just young generals with no reputation. If we really go there, not only will we not be reused, but we may also become a mediator between Wu Hou and His Majesty, which is inappropriate."

Fan Qiang didn't think that escaping directly would have any good results. There was nothing to support them, and they were not worthy of being reused. Maybe others would not use them because they were greedy for life and afraid of death.

"No fame? How about we find a way to become famous."

"What can I do?"

Fan Qiang was about to express his thoughts when a sudden voice interrupted him.

"Report, two generals, General Zhang is back.
