Seven hundred and ninety-five Gongzi Cong is young and shrewd, and he is suitable to inherit the position of envoy
Liu Zhang, under the hostage of the Dongzhou faction, was voluntarily made the emperor and continued to play the banner of the Han Dynasty.
In order to buy people's hearts and show the world that they are orthodox, and to enlist the help of the wealthy families in the Central Plains who still have the Han family in their hearts, Liu Zhang's regime announced that he would go north to attack Guo Wei and crusade against the puppet dynasty.
Then he also sent Liu Zhang's edict to Liu Biao.
In the edict, it was said that Liu Zhang wanted to make Liu Biao the king of Chu and support Liu Biao as the monarch of Chu, so he asked Liu Biao to listen to him.
Since there is no one else in the world who is willing to stand up to defend the Han family, let them two Han clan relatives support the Han Dynasty together.
Re-establish the foundation of Dahan!
At this critical moment when the Han dynasty is declining, when the north has been occupied by the puppet dynasty Guo Wei, it is even more necessary for people with lofty ideals to rise up and fight for the Han family!
Liu Biao was very happy, realizing that he was not alone, and thought that his subordinates who ate inside and outside would not allow him to be emperor, so he simply accepted Liu Zhang's edict.
Liu Biao announced that he recognized Liu Zhang's throne, accepted Liu Zhang's appointment, and ascended to the throne as the king of Chu, not only that, but he also invited Liu Zhang to send troops to Jingzhou to help in the war.
Liu Biao has realized that his ruling foundation is gradually collapsing, and the already deep foundation of rule is now like a candle in the wind, so if he does not rely on Liu Zhang's army at this time, then he is likely to be ousted by a military coup.
He knows exactly what these guys can do.
For this reason, he even transferred Gan Ning, a general who was not from Jingzhou, to his side to serve as the guard of Jiangling City, and made a promise to Gan Ning that he would definitely protect his wealth.
Nowadays, there are not many people that Liu Biao can trust, including Wen Ping and Huang Zhong, although they are from Nanyang and from the north, they are also from Jingzhou, and he is not sure if he can have the same heart with him.
It is necessary to build an army led by a non-Jingzhou-born general to protect Jiangling.
Liu Biao thinks so.
So while receiving Liu Zhang's edict, he also called the generals of Sun Wei and Sun Fu, who had always lived in Jiangxia, and appointed them as generals, and assigned part of the army under Huang Zhong and Wen Ping to Sun Wei and Sun Fu to lead them, and let them garrison the edge of Jiangling City.
Compared with Jingzhou people, they are still a little more reliable.
In particular, Sun Wei and Sun Fu except for their own branch, the rest of the clansmen were ordered to be exterminated by Guo Peng, and they had an incomprehensible blood feud with Guo Peng, they were much more reliable than most of the people in Jingzhou, at least they would not surrender.
When Liu Biao appointed Sun Wei and Sun Fu as generals, he only held their hands and looked at them with teary eyes.
"The situation in Jingzhou is dangerous, the locals are not trustworthy, the only thing I can trust is the two generals, please look at my thin face, thinking of Guo Zifeng's hatred of destroying the country and killing relatives, we must try our best to ensure that Jingzhou is not lost, if we lose Jingzhou, you and I are at risk of extinction."
Sun Wei and Sun Fu also held Liu Biao's hand with tears in their eyes.
"As long as there is still a breath, Guo Zifeng will never be allowed to succeed! We will definitely resist and protect Jingzhou! ”
Liu Biao nodded again and again, and his heart was greatly relieved.
So Liu Biao handed over part of the military power to Sun Wei and Sun Fu, entrusted them with the right to lead the troops, established the Jiangling defense system dominated by Ersun and Gan Ning, gave them military talismans, and entrusted the military power to each other.
Seeing that Liu Biao took Liu Zhang's edict and became the king of Chu, he also invited Liu Zhang to Jingzhou to help in the war, and successively promoted three generals who were not from Jingzhou to lead the troops, which quickly reversed the military strength of Jingzhou people and non-Jingzhou people.
This is because Liu Biao doesn't believe in everyone, suspects that everyone is going to be unfavorable to him, and wants to add safety weights to himself, and to prepare for the decisive battle with Guo Peng.
Of course, if you have to say it, no one will say that Liu Biao has done something wrong.
Because during this time, there were indeed bold people who proposed to capture Liu Biao alive and send Liu Biao directly to Luoyang to Guo Peng to show Jingzhou's submission, they thought that this would directly end the disaster in Jingzhou and avoid damage to their own interests.
But this approach was opposed by Kuaiyue.
Kuai Yue insisted that this was not good, believing that such a blatant offense would violate the taboo of the ruler and leave hidden dangers, which needed to be considered in the long run.
Therefore, Kuai Yue thinks that everyone should guard their own territory and not take the initiative to stir up trouble, but they will definitely not obey Liu Biao's Northern Expedition to Guo Peng, and treat this matter with silence and no response.
But some people disagree with this, thinking that Liu Biao is about to raise the butcher's knife, do we still have to sit still?
It was again to appoint outsiders to lead troops, and it was to invite Liu Zhang to send troops to help in the war, once Liu Biao really pulled up his own army, wouldn't Jingzhou be bad?
Just when the two sides were deadlocked and didn't know what to do, someone suddenly put forward an opinion in Kuai Yue's ear.
"Xiangjun has been in poor health recently, and he called many famous doctors to recuperate his body, and it seems to be gradually improving, but I went to ask one of the famous doctors, and the famous doctor said that Zhijun's illness is actually quite serious, and it is not an ordinary medicine stone that can be cured, and if you are not careful, you will ......."
He deliberately sold a pass, but he was as shrewd as Kuai Yue and realized what this person meant.
So Kuai Yue ended the meeting early, leaving only Cai Mao and Kuai Liang.
"Xeno, you leave me waiting, do you have anything to say?"
Cai Mao asked Kuai Yue strangely.
Kuai Yue nodded.
"The envoy is not in good health, he is seriously ill and has not yet recovered, but now he has to work hard, you have also seen the fatigue before the envoy, if it goes on like this for a long time, I am afraid it will not be good for the envoy's body, we have to find a way."
Kuai Yue said such a sentence without a beginning or an end, and Cai Mao and Kuai Liang didn't react for a while.
"Xenodimension, what does that mean?"
Cai Mao looked at Kuai Yue.
Kuai Yue didn't speak, and looked at Kuai Liang.
Kuai Liang was puzzled at first, and then suddenly realized, his face showed surprise, and then whispered something to Cai Mao, and Cai Mao's face became extremely frightened.
"Xeno, you really want to ......"
"Deju, I never want to see Jingzhou become a battlefield, let alone do such a thing with Liu Jingsheng's own selfishness, we should stand by and watch, the unification of the world is the general trend, the general trend has been decided, no one can stop it, and Liu Jingsheng can't do it."
Kuai Yue's brows furrowed tightly: "What he is doing now is completely roasting us on the fire, he has never considered our situation at all, he has never cared about our embarrassment, and he doesn't care about the safety of our family, in this case, why should we stick to small details?" ”
"This is not a small ......"
Cai Mao was embarrassed: "And what about after that? What should you do after that? Have you figured it out? If there's a little bit of a mistake, I'll just ......."
"Gongzi Cong is young and smart, and he has always been loved by the envoy, and he is worthy of inheriting the position of the envoy."
Kuai Yue interrupted Cai Mao's words and looked at Cai Mao: "I heard that Gongzi Cong and Mrs. Cai are in love with their biological mother and son, and they married Mrs. Cai's niece as their wife, and the relationship with Cai's family is very close, Gongzi Cong inherits the position of envoy, isn't this the situation that De Cong wants to see?" ”
"This ......"
Cai Mao hesitated slightly: "However, in addition to Gongzi Cong, there is also Gongzi Qi, Gongzi Qi is also in Jiangling, and there are Jiangxia Huang Zu, as well as Gan Ning, Sun Wei, Sun Fu, these are all people that Liu Jingsheng can use, they will definitely not support Gongzi Cong, let's do this, are you ready?" ”
