Xiangyang City.

Palace.

In this palace, the walls around it are still being built, and the houses are scattered.

Wu Guoguo, driven by the establishment of the princes of the world, Liu Biao can only respond, but there is no preparation before, so Chu Guoguo is very hasty, insufficient preparation, he can use the majestic city of Xiangyang as the royal capital, which can be regarded as making up for the shortcomings, but the palace in the capital is a little simple.

This palace was completed in a hurry, not magnificent, although the area is a lot, but the palace is simple, if it is strictly said to be a large mansion.

Liu Biao's tall figure, pale yellow python robe, exuding a touch of coercion, standing in a courtyard with his hands behind his back, his eyes narrowed, looking at an elegant middle-aged man beside him, and said lightly: "Zirou, Orphan Sun Quan and Hua Xin and others were snubbed, how did they react?" Do you complain? ”

"The king, yes!"

Kuai Liang is Liu Bei's first confidant, although the daughter of the Cai family he married is the queen, but compared to his relative Cai Mao, he believes in Kuai Liang more, Kuai Liang's face is calm, he shook his head, and reported: "Hua Xin and others, who made an appointment with Confucianism in Chu State, visited Xiangyang every day, and were happy, and they didn't care about the king's snub at all, and Sun Zhongmou went to Lumenshan Academy today to meet Sima Wei and Pang Degong, two great Confucians!" ”

"Sun Quan went to Lumen Mountain Academy?" Liu Biao's eyes were slightly cold, Sima Wei and Pang Degong were both famous Confucians in Jingzhou, he didn't think about recruiting them to help them go out of the mountain, but he had already been rejected early in the morning, and he couldn't even control Lumenshan Academy.

So for them, he always had some jealousy in his heart.

"Hmm!"

Kuai Liang put on a robe, nodded, and said respectfully: "Report to the king, early this morning, he took some attendants and went straight to Lumen Mountain!" ”

"Zirou, you say, why did Wu come here?" Liu Biao took a deep breath, calmed down, crossed his eyes with a touch of doubt, groaned, and asked.

Although he was angry with Wu Guo because of Gan Ning, he was not a person who didn't understand etiquette, and the reason why he snubbed them was just because he didn't know what Wu Guo wanted, so he just wanted to force them.

"King, what you think should be peace!"

Kuai Liang's face was solemn, he thought about it, and suddenly a spiritual light crossed his mind, his eyes instantly narrowed, and he arched his hand, and said: "Great King, the estimate in the minister's heart, the purpose of the envoys of the Wu State this time is to seek peace, they should want to make peace with our Chu State, and suspend the war between the two countries!" ”

"Summation?"

When Liu Biao heard this, he was slightly stunned, he didn't believe it, and quickly shook his head, with a cold smile on the corner of his mouth, and said in a cold voice: "Sun Jian, don't you still understand Lone, he is a fierce tiger in Jiangdong, with Lingyunzhi in his chest, violent personality, brave and unyielding, and now the soldiers of Wu State are still above my Chu State, will he ask Gu for peace?" I don't believe it. ”

"King, if it was before, it would have been like this, but now it's here and there!"

Kuai Liang smiled slightly, arched his hand, and analyzed in a low voice: "Although the state of Wu is strong, the places under its jurisdiction, except for the six counties of Jiangdong, are basically sparsely populated areas, Jiaozhou and Liaodong are too desolate, and they must be heavily armed, so that their troops are naturally too widely distributed, and it is difficult to form a clenched fist, and our Chu State, although the territory is not as good as that of Wu, but Jingzhou is rich, the population is not under them, and the elite troops under their jurisdiction are not under them, and they are deployed quickly. ”

Kuai Liang also thought of Sun Jian's intentions after Sun Quan came to the Chu State, and he hurriedly said: "If Chu and Wu go to war, the Chu army will inevitably storm Chaisang, the soldiers and horses of Chaisang City will not be able to stop our army, the city will be broken, once the Chu army drives straight in, it will inevitably make them chaotic in all directions, and Sun Jian and Cao Cao have always been at odds, in the past, the Sun brothers besieged Cao Mengde in the East China Sea, and in Shouchun City, Xiahou Yuan besieged and killed Sun Quan, all of which are inextricable hatred, Wu has been in an invisible confrontation with Wei, Hefei Front, although there is no war, However, more than hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses on both sides are involved, and they never stop at the touch of a trigger. ”

Kuai Liang squinted his eyes and said, "In this case, Sun Jian should still be peeping at the Lu State now, so at this juncture, he must make a truce with our Chu State, so that he has no worries." ”

"Hmph, he said a truce, a truce, did he ask Lone, is Lone willing to stop fighting?"

Liu Biao quietly listened to the words of his confidant and adviser, suddenly flicked his sleeves, and said angrily.

He can ride into Jingzhou alone and achieve a hegemony, so he naturally has his own arrogance, and now this situation seems to be a peace that Wu is giving him alms.

Naturally, he couldn't accept it.

The State of Chu is inferior to the State of Wu in terms of strength, territory, population, and military strength, and he knows it.

Therefore, Wu State, the first enemy in Liu Biao's subconscious, is even more afraid of Wei in the north, because there is no naval army in Wei State, and it is not so easy to fight Chu State, and Wu's naval combat effectiveness is definitely beyond that of Chu State, once it goes up the Yangtze River waterway, it is difficult to resist.

"King, at this stage, it is still necessary for us to befriend Wu Guo!" Kuai Liang groaned for half a moment and persuaded.

"Why?"

Liu Biao asked coldly.

"A few days ago, the spies of the State of Chu have discovered that the State of Wei is now planning to move troops against the State of Nanyang, Nanyang is the gateway of the State of Chu, if the State of Nanyang is lost, the cavalry of the North Land can drive straight in."

Kuai Liang said respectfully: "Wu is indeed the ultimate enemy of our Chu State, but now that peace is necessary, it is a good thing for all of us, because we also need to free up our hands, transfer back the troops guarding the southeast, clean up Nanyang State, and bring Nanyang under the jurisdiction of Chu State before Wei State captures Nanyang!" ”

"Capture Nanyang?"

When Liu Biao heard this, he suddenly felt a little excited.

Liu Biao is indeed both civil and military, bold and capable of doing things, but he is a little bit of a pioneering and enterprising heart, attaches too much importance to the one acre and three points of land he gets, and has a mentality that he is unwilling to go to war when he is comfortable, so that he has done nothing all his life.

Historically, it is not wrong to evaluate Liu Biao as a dog who guards the house.

Holding Jingzhou is much more important to him than capturing Nanyang State, he doesn't want to retreat from the army at this end, and the other end will be turned by Wu State and directly hit Chu State.

"King, Nanyang must be taken!" Kuai Liang naturally understood Liu Biao's mentality, he looked at his expression, and hurriedly persuaded with some bitterness: "If Wei State is allowed to control Nanyang, I will be in danger!" ”

"You have a point!"

When Liu Biao heard this, his eyes moved slightly, he pondered for a moment, and said: "Spread the will of Gu, let Xinye Hou, the chief general of the Northern Expedition to Nanyang, lead 20,000 troops, set off as soon as possible, and seize Nanyang." ”

This is a plan he thought of killing two birds with one stone.

Liu Bei, although this person is humble, but he is ambitious, there are several generals under his command, thousands of elites, Liu Biao naturally will not know, but the northern gate of Chu does need such a person to guard, so he wants to use him, but he also has to guard against him.

This time, give him 20,000 troops, let him go to Nanyang to toss around, if he can take Nanyang back, it will naturally be good, if not, it will only be a loss of 20,000 troops, and most importantly, it can consume his strength.

Only Liu Bei, who has no strength, will be loyal to the state of Chu.

"No!"

The corners of Kuai Liang's mouth twitched, and he could only bow down to receive the order.

――――――――――――――――――

Freshno!

This is just a small city, a gateway to the north of the Chu State, and a handover to the Nanyang State.

Nanyang Zhang Xiu, the king of spears in the north, although his strength is not strong, but the Xiliang Iron Cavalry under his command is all elite.

Therefore, a city in Xinye has become very important.

A simple mansion of the Marquis of Xinye, Liu Bei's body sits in a courtyard, wearing a simple robe and a pair of straw shoes skillfully knitted.

In his early years, he made a living selling straw sandals, so he developed a habit that was not a good habit, and when his thoughts were depressed, he liked to weave straw sandals to cross his thoughts.

"Lord!"

At this time, there were two people standing next to him, a young man on the left, wearing a scarf and holding a feather fan, looked at Liu Bei indifferently, and said in a low voice: "Since the king has made a holy decree now, I hope that the lord will make up his mind as soon as possible." ”

"Kong Ming, how is it good?" Hearing this, Liu Bei raised his head slightly, let out a long sigh, and looked at this young man, with a glimmer of hope.

Liu Biao actually asked him to take 20,000 troops to capture Nanyang, didn't he let him die?

"Lord, if you don't obey the order, you will disobey the holy will, and with the current strength of the lord, it is difficult to resist the wrath of the Chu State, so ...... You can't help but follow! ”

Zhuge Liang smiled slightly, and the corners of his mouth outlined a meaningful smile.
