Brother Liu Bei visits his brother! ”

Liu Bei and Liu Qi were polite at the city gate, Liu Qi took Liu Bei to the state pastor's mansion, at this time Liu Biao was discussing with Jingzhou civil and military affairs against Yuan Yao, hearing that Liu Bei was outside the palace, Liu Biao hurriedly ordered Liu Bei to enter, Liu Bei entered and saw Liu Biao, and hurriedly stepped forward to bow respectfully.

Liu Biaoqiang sat up with his long-ill body and said: "Yuan Yao's army is pressing, now that my Jingzhou is in turmoil, I am in a difficult situation, and the only one who can help me is Xuande, this time you can come, I will rest assured!" ”

When Jingzhou Wenwu heard Liu Biao's words, his heart immediately felt a little surprised, according to what he said, so many of us can't compare to a mere Liu Bei? Liu Bei has repeatedly failed at the hands of others, and constantly sent people under the fence, why dare to stand on our heads and!

After all, Liu Biao is the lord of Jingzhou, Jingzhou civil and military dare not do anything to Liu Biao, they can only resent Liu Bei in their hearts, and their eyes are about to be a little angry, and they all stare at Liu Bei vigorously, eager to give him a good look immediately!

Liu Bei was also a little stunned when he heard Liu Biao's words, if it weren't for Liu Biao's sincere attitude and sincere words, Liu Bei would even be a little skeptical that Liu Biao had seen his thoughts and wanted to roast himself on the fire!

Although Liu Bei has initially had some foundation for expanding his army by tens of thousands, how dare he offend the people of Jingzhou, he hurriedly bowed again when he heard the words, and said respectfully: "Brother said that he laughed, my brother has a lot of heroes under his command, even if there is no help from me, it is just an idle matter to defeat Yuan Yao, and it is just the icing on the cake to come to Xiangyang, and I will never be so praised by my brother." ”

Jingzhou Wenwu heard Liu Bei's words, and his expression eased a little, it seems that this Liu Bei is still a little self-aware!!

Liu Biao smiled and said: "Xuande is too modest, the soldiers under your command are brave and brave, and I still have to rely on you to help me in this battle!" When Yi nationality went to Xinye, I must have already told you, I plan to let you lead the troops and horses of the headquarters and the Xiangyang garrison to join forces, with Cai Mao as the main general and you as the deputy general, and go to attack Jingling together, I don't know what you think? ”

Liu Bei pondered for a moment, pretended to be embarrassed, and said: "Brother, it's not that I don't want to lead the army, it's just that I had some contradictions with General Cai before, and they haven't been resolved so far. The generals are not in harmony, and this is a taboo for soldiers! If I, Liu Bei, are in danger, it will be nothing, but if the army is defeated and Jingzhou is lost because of this incident, then my sin will be great! I hope that my brother will consider this matter carefully and think twice! ”

Liu Biao also thought that Liu Bei might not agree to this order, a hint of playfulness flashed in his eyes, and said, "Then in your opinion, how should I use soldiers?" ”

Liu Bei heard that Liu Biao's tone was wrong, and knew that he was a little suspicious that he wanted to get involved in Jingzhou's military power, so he hurriedly explained: "The eldest son, Liu Qi, is very intelligent and prestigious, and he is very filial to his brother, why doesn't my brother take him as the chief general of the army, and let me serve as a deputy general with General Cai?" Mr. Qi is fair, and with Mr. Qi in the middle, I think General Cai and I will be able to be safe, and my brother will be much more relieved! ”

Although Liu Qi is Liu Biao's eldest son, he is not Liu Biao's sister-in-law, his sister-in-law is Liu Cong, who was born to Cai, and Cai is Cai Mao's sister.

Cai Mao has always hoped that Liu Cong will inherit Liu Biao's position as the state pastor, and it is naturally very unpleasant to look at Liu Qi, there has long been a contradiction between him and Liu Qi, whether it is from the perspective of family interests or from the perspective of personal emotions, he naturally can't do things Liu Qi controls the military power of Jingzhou!

In addition, Liu Qi has always been good friends with Liu Bei, if Liu Qi is allowed to serve as the commander of the army, Liu Qi will definitely obey Liu Beiyan, and he will still be able to get benefits at that time?

After Cai Mao listened to Liu Bei's words, he was immediately furious in his heart, you are so desperate to dig up the foundation of my Cai family, you came to Jingzhou in embarrassment, and it is good enough for me to let you garrison in the new wilderness, and now you dare to meddle in my Jingzhou political affairs, you are really looking for death!!

"Lord, this must not be done! The conquest of the army is a major event of the country, Liu Qi has never led the troops, how can he serve as the commander of the 100,000 army at one time? Yuan Yao and his generals are all veteran generals who have experienced a hundred battles, if Liu Qi is allowed to lead the troops, our army will definitely be defeated!! ”

Liu Bei already had a grudge against Cai Mao, but now he proposed to let Liu Qi lead the troops, and now he and Cai Mao have become enemies of life and death!

If this matter is successful, he can use Liu Qi's name and the strength of his soldiers and horses to suppress Cai Mao, and even secretly control the Jingzhou army, but if this matter fails, in the end, let Cai Mao be the chief general of the army, and then Cai Mao will definitely send Liu Bei and his soldiers and horses to die!

Liu Bei knows this truth very well, since he has torn his face, then he has no chance, hearing Cai Mao's words, Liu Bei smiled, and asked in a countervoice: "The general has been in battle for a long time, but I don't know how many times the general has won in Yuan Yao's hands?" ”

Cai Mao led the army to attack Jingling City several times, but each time he lost his troops and returned, which made Cai Mao deeply humiliated, and he would never allow others to mention it in front of him!

Hearing that Liu Bei dared to expose his scars in front of him, Cai Mao was immediately angry, if it weren't for the fact that his saber had already been untied outside during the discussion, I'm afraid Cai Mao would have drawn his sword and cut Liu Bei!

Cai Mao touched the lack of a sword on his waist, and reprimanded angrily: "Big-eared thief, you insulted me so much, don't you think that my Cai Mao's sword is not sharp!" Don't I dare kill you!! ”

Liu Bei saw Cai Mao angry, he didn't think so, and continued to stimulate: "What I said is just the truth, you dare to kill people in front of Ming Gong, it is really presumptuous!! ”

"You ......, you ......"

When Cai Mao heard that Liu Bei dared to sue the wicked first, he was suddenly angry in his heart, and almost rushed up to beat Liu Bei, but fortunately, the people around him quickly stopped him, so he didn't let him stage a full martial arts show in the main hall.

Seeing this, Liu Bei no longer paid attention to Cai Mao, turned to Liu Biao and said: "Ming Gong, Qi Gongzi is your eldest son, if Ming Gong orders him to lead the army to conquer Yuan Yao, the officers and soldiers in the army will see Ming Gong's courage to fight, and they will definitely cheer up the army, and they will be invincible at that time!" As for the fact that Gongzi Qi does not understand military affairs, this matter is also easy to do, there is no shortage of generals who are familiar with military strategy in the army, Ming Gong only needs to let people assist Gongzi, as long as Gongzi recruits the benefits of the group, he will be invincible! ”
