『Click on the chapter to report an error』
The chaos in Jingzhou has been continuing, Liu Cheng is sick again, no one wants to put down the rebellion in the four counties of Jingnan at all, Liu Cheng is not ready for the front line, and the backyard has already caught fire, which makes the whole Jingzhou begin to fall into panic.
At this time, Liu Bei took the initiative to order Sun Qian to get in touch with Liu Qi, hoping to help Liu Biao suppress the rebellion in the four counties of Jingnan, Liu Qi was very grateful to Liu Bei and promised, so Liu Bei ordered Guan Yu to lead an army of 30,000 into Jingnan and began to declare war on the rebels.
I have to say that Guan Yu's combat power is not comparable to those generals in Jingnan at all, and in just one month, Liu Bei recovered Guiyang County, and ordered someone to welcome Liu Qi to Chenxian County, Guiyang, and temporarily serve as the Taishou of Guiyang.
After Liu Biao in Xiangyang heard the news that Guiyang County had been pacified, he was very happy and his condition was alleviated, but he also knew that his condition would not get better, so he planned to give Jingzhou to Liu Bei.
But when Liu Biao said his plan, he was opposed by almost everyone, Kuai Liang and Kuai Yue, needless to say, even Cai Mao and Mrs. Cai's brothers and sisters were resolutely opposed, Liu Cong even cried that if Liu Biao gave Jingzhou to Liu Bei, then he would rather go back to his hometown Lu than see the foundation laid by his father's hard work taken away by others.
As soon as Liu Biao heard this, he immediately gave up his original plan, and he was actually not particularly at ease with Liu Bei, especially the crying of his youngest son and the persuasion of everyone, which made him unable to continue to make such a determination.
At this moment, I saw that the imperial court suddenly issued an edict to worship Liu Biao as the secretary, and asked Liu Biao to go to Luoyang to take office within a month, and at the same time reappointed Lü Meng as the assassin of Jingzhou.
Liu Biao was immediately depressed after getting the news, Pei Qing's intention to do this was actually obvious, that is, to seize the power of Jingzhou by way of rising and descending, if Liu Biao obeyed the order, he would naturally lose everything in Jingzhou, and move to Luoyang to be restricted by Pei Qing, but if Liu Biao refused, then Pei Qing would use this as an excuse to lead the army to attack.
Liu Biao gathered all the strategists under his command to deal with the method after getting the edict, these strategists persuaded Liu Biao to accept the edict of the imperial court without exception, only the Yi nationality opposed this and insisted on giving Jingzhou to Liu Bei, which naturally would not be approved, and after the meeting, the Yi nationality fled to Changsha to seek refuge with Liu Bei.
At this time, Liu Qi came to visit, Cai Mao was afraid that Liu Qi would touch Liu Biao's feelings after he came, and set Liu Qi up as the heir, so he refused Liu Qi to enter the city, and said sharply to Liu Qi: "Your father asked you to be the Taishou of Changsha, but you haven't arrived in Changsha now, and now you are just staying in Guiyang temporarily, don't you say that you will quickly lead the troops to recover the four counties of Jingnan, and there is still time here?" If your father knows about it, he will be very angry, it will aggravate your father's illness, not the way of filial piety, you better go back quickly. ”
Liu Qi has always been filial, but after hearing this, he was helpless and left Xiangyang in tears.
Liu Biao was annoyed after getting the news, and his illness became even more serious, and he couldn't afford to be sick at once, and a few days later, he vomited blood and died suddenly.
After Liu Biao's death, Cai Mao and others kept their funeral secret, and falsely passed on their will, and made Liu Cong the heir of Liu Biao, and by the time Liu Qi got the news, it was already a month later.
Liu Qi was furious when he heard the news, threw the seal letter to the ground, and prepared to use the funeral to crusade against Liu Cong and the gang of traitors.
However, at this time, Liu Qi heard an even more surprising news, his younger brother Liu Cong actually surrendered to Pei Qing, and Pei Qing occupied the four counties of Nanjun, Xiangyang, Jiangxia and Zhangling without a single soldier.
In fact, Liu Cong did not plan to surrender at the beginning, but the generals took turns to persuade him to surrender, including Liu Cong's father-in-law Cai Mao and stepmother Cai, under the bombardment of these people, Liu Cong finally recognized the situation and announced his surrender to Pei Qing.
Pei Qing was overjoyed when he heard the news, in this case, he didn't care about filial piety or not, although this was a bit unworthy of Liu Qi, but this could save the people of Jingzhou from the suffering of war and return to the imperial court, and survive hundreds of people, which is a great thing.
So Pei Qing played the Son of Heaven, named Liu Cong as the Marquis of Gaoping, worshiped as the counselor, worshiped Cai Mao as the general of Louchuan, and named the Marquis of Hanyang Ting, and others such as Fu Xun, Liu Xian, Han Song, etc.
In addition, Pei Qing also went to Xiangyang in person, on the one hand, to appease the people, and on the other hand, to deploy the next move.
When Pei Qing arrived in Xiangyang, he first appeased the people and announced the policy of tax reduction and exemption this year, and then invited Wen Ping, who had returned to the countryside of Xiangyang, to join his forces.
Pei Qing said to Wen Ping after meeting Wen Ping: "Zhong Ye, we also fought side by side at the beginning, and we knew each other very well, but why did you hide here?" ”
I saw Wen Ping said ashamedly: "I couldn't assist Liu Jingzhou to guard the territory before, and although Liu Jingzhou passed away, I still hope to be able to defend Hanchuan and protect the territory, so that I can be worthy of the deceased Liu Jingzhou, and worthy of the lonely and weak young master, but what I envisioned cannot be realized, and it has reached the point where it is now." I was really sad and ashamed in my heart, and I really didn't have the face to see Pei Gong. ”
After listening to this, Pei Qing couldn't help but admire: "Zhongye is really a generation of loyalty." ”
So Pei Qing appointed Wen Ping as the Taishou of Nanjun and asked him to lead the old department to garrison Jiangling together.
Although Wen Ping was loyal to Liu Biao's father and son, now that Liu Cong had surrendered, and he also ordered him to surrender, it was natural to surrender to Pei Qing now.
After Pei Qing got the Wen Hir, he learned that the attributes of the Wen Ping are: "Commander type talent, force 85, command 88, intelligence 71, internal affairs 79, loyalty 91, the characteristic is unyielding, characteristic effect, in the face of the attack of superior forces, their own command and force value are improved, the more the number of opponents, the more they are promoted, at least 2 points of command, 1 point of force, up to 8 points of command, 4 points of force ......"
Since Wenpin's loyalty has reached 91, he now needs Wenpin to guard Jiangling for him, and Pei Qingdi Wenpin also likes and appreciates it from the bottom of his heart, so he decided to match Wenpin with genes.
What Pei Qing prepared for Wen Ping was the gene of the national hero Wen Tianxiang.
"Wen Tianxiang, strategist-type talent, force 45, command 82, intelligence 91, internal affairs 88, the characteristic is loyalty, characteristic effect, if you meet Mingjun, your own loyalty directly reaches 200, if you are injured in battle, then your own command value and the morale of the army you lead will be temporarily improved, the higher your own injury, the more your command value and morale will increase, the command value will increase by at least 1 point, the maximum will be 10 points, and the minimum morale increase will be 10 points, and the maximum can make the army's morale unconditionally reach a high state (120 morale) ......”
The reason why Pei Qing prepared Wen Tianxiang's genes is, of course, that he values the loyalty that can reach 200 as soon as he comes up, and also values the other effects of the characteristics of the loyalty festival, because if Wen Ping personally goes to the battlefield to fight, and at the same time encounters the enemy's superior forces attack, the command value he can improve is very amazing, even perverted, if both reach the limit, his presidential rate value can be increased by 20 points, and finally his total command value will reach a terrifying 108!
At the same time, Pei Qing also sent Wen Ji as Wen Ping's deputy general, although Wen Ji's current ability is relatively poor, but Pei Qing prepared his grandson Wen Yang's genes for him!
