Chapter Eighty-Four: Night Talk in the Study, Jingzhou's Century-Old Family
Liu Biao turned his head to look at the room, making sure that the doors and windows had been closed, and then said slowly. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
"I have two sons, the eldest son Liu Qi was born to my ex-wife, and the second son Liu Cong was born to my current wife Cai. I like Liu Cong very much because he is smart and clever, and the Cai family also intends to let me set up Liu Cong as the son of the family and take over the great cause of Jingzhou in the future. Now I am in a dilemma, and I want to ask General Guan to give me advice. Liu Biao said slowly.
Liu Biao said that Guan Yu had already expected this, but it was not surprising to hear it at this time, but he still pretended to be frightened and said.
"This is the internal affairs of Jingzhou, we are greatly favored by the Duke of Ming, and we live here, how dare we talk about the internal affairs of Jingzhou."
"The so-called authorities are confused, and bystanders are clear. It's because you live here that I want to hear your opinions. Liu Biao frowned and said sincerely.
Guan Yu lowered his head and pondered, made a look of embarrassment, and did not speak. In fact, he was waiting for Zhao Tian to give himself a hint in the form of a spiritual dialogue. Not long after, Zhao Tian's voice sounded in Guan Yu's heart, Guan Yu suddenly had a bottom, and his red face was heavy with a smile slightly, and then repeated Zhao Tian's words.
"Waste grows and grows young, and since ancient times, it has been the way to take chaos. Please also ask Ming Gong to think twice. ”
"But the Cai family is a century-old family in Jingzhou, and Cai Mao has most of the military power in his hands." Liu Biao hesitated.
"It is indeed not a wise move to abolish the elder and establish the young, if the Cai family has too much power, I am afraid that Ming Gong will have to find a way to weaken it, otherwise who is the lord of Jingzhou." Guan Yu walked up to Liu Biao and whispered to him.
"What General Guan said is yes, everything should be for the sake of the overall situation of Jingzhou, not my personal preferences." Liu Biao nodded.
"Exactly." Guan Yu nodded hurriedly.
"Okay, I'll ask Cai Mao for military power when I go back." Liu Biao said immediately.
"Ming Gong can't, now that the military power has been in Cai Mao's hands for many years, he must have mastered some military hearts. If it directly claims military power, once a mutiny is provoked, Jingzhou will inevitably be in chaos. Guan Yu waved his hand and said.
"Cai Mao, he would have such a big guts? Dare to oppose me? Liu Biao said angrily.
"I'm not afraid of 10,000 in everything, I'm afraid of what happens. In order to reduce its power, it is not necessary to start with military power. ”
"So where do you start?" Liu Biao asked.
"Military rations." Guan Yu smiled slightly and said in a low voice.
"What do you mean?"
"There should still be a small half of the military power in your hands now, and you can increase the salary and salary of the military camp in your hands, so as to gradually cultivate the military spirit. After that, find a way to gradually remove the generals under Cai Mao, which weakens the power, and it will take a little bit. Guan Yu stroked his beard and said slowly.
Liu Biao heard what Guan Yu said, nodded one after another, and felt that what Guan Yu said was very true.
"General Guan, how many soldiers and horses do you have now?" Liu Biao thought for a while and suddenly asked.
"More than 10,000." Guan Yuyi frowned, not knowing what Liu Biao meant.
"In this case, I will hand over several cities around Xinye to you to guard. Although the city of Bowangpo is small, it is very close to the main city of Nanyang County, and you usually communicate with the county guards of Nanyang County, and by the way, you are familiar with the affairs of Nanyang County. Liu Biao smiled.
"Ming Gong, what does this mean?" Guan Yu immediately put down the teacup in his hand and asked in surprise.
"I want your forces to be stronger, and if the enemy army attacks, you will have more strength to protect Jingzhou. Besides, I'm older, you've been my old friend for many years, and if Jingzhou changes, I still count on you to help Jingzhou. Liu Biao took a sip of tea and said slowly.
"In the next Ming Gong's kindness, he should repay him." Guan Yu hugged his fists.
"If it's not too early today, you can rest in the inn next to you."
"Then Minggong should also rest early." Guan Yu said in a deep voice.
"You two come with me, and I'll take you to the inn." Liu Biao said. He slowly got up.
"We can find the inn ourselves, Ming Gong doesn't have to worry." Liu Biao is old, how can Guan Yu bear to let such an old man lead the way for him in the dark night.
"Come with me."
Liu Biao seemed to be very happy, so he left the study with a smile and walked out of the study with the two of them. In the silent night, Liu Biao took Zhao Tian and Guan Yu to walk for two pillars of incense and came to an inn. This inn is not tall, nor is it gorgeous. But it looks soothing and gives people a sense of comfort. Guan Yu and Zhao Tian said goodbye to Liu Biao, and then gently pushed the door open and went to the inn to rest.
Now that there is no one around, Guan Yu and Zhao Tian talked about the previous matter.
"This Liu Biao seems to take us very seriously." Guan Yu said.
"It does attach great importance to it, and it seems that he wants to train us to be his force." Zhao Tian said in a deep voice.
"Since we came to Jingzhou, Liu Qi, Cai Mao, and Liu Biao have all hinted to us separately that we are really in demand." Guan Yu laughed.
Zhao Tian was not happy at all, pulling his face, frowning, and thinking about something. When Guan Yu saw it, he hurriedly wondered.
"Ziying, you seem to have something on your mind?"
"Do you remember that Pu Yuan at the banquet?" Zhao Tian said slowly.
"It's that arrogant blacksmith." Guan Yu said.
"It's the blacksmith." Zhao Tian nodded.
"What's wrong with him?"
"That Puyuan gives me an unfathomable feeling, looking at Liu Biao's attitude towards him, he shouldn't be just a fanatic." Zhao Tian said slowly.
"No matter how powerful you are, you're just a blacksmith." Guan Yu said nonchalantly.
Zhao Tian heard what Guan Yu said, so he didn't say anything more. Zhao Tian faintly felt that since Lu Bu died, Guan Yu had become more and more confident, and even exceeded the scope of self-confidence, and gradually became a little conceited. During this time, Guan Yu broke through again, and now he has reached the five-star general-level Yuan Li, and he is indeed a well-known figure today. But this is only limited to the strong people on the bright side, how many hidden strong people are in this world, even Zhao Tian does not count in his heart. As Du Du's master, the poisonous hand monster doctor will definitely not be low. And Hua Tuo, the divine doctor who is as famous as the poisonous hand and monster doctor, the divine dragon sees the head but does not see the tail, and he is probably better than the previous one.
The Pu Yuan he encountered today, although Zhao Tian did not feel the murderous aura of galloping on the battlefield on his body, his unfathomable strength was indeed very terrifying. That absolute self-confidence is given by a huge gap. Zhao Tian seemed to have a premonition in his heart that once Guan Yu and Pu Yuan fought, he was afraid that he would be more than lucky.
But all this, Zhao Tian didn't say. Because Guan Yu was too confident at this time, even if he said it, it would not have any effect.
