"Normally, a plan is just a plan, and it's really not easy to succeed. However, I think it works. ”

Xun You said confidently: "Because, we have Cai Mao to arrange a move from it." ”

"My lord, please think about it, according to Cai Mao's detailed information, now, Liu Bei is actually in Liu Biao's secret control, without Guan Yu and Zhang Fei by Liu Bei's side, Liu Bei's life is equivalent to pinching in Liu Biao's hands. Moreover, Liu Bei was in danger but didn't know it, and now, he really thought that Liu Biao was really seriously ill, and he was thinking about how to really replace Liu Biao. He didn't know that his activities in Xiangyang could not escape Liu Biao's ears and eyes. Xun You analyzed carefully: "We can do this, find a way, and make Liu Biao believe that Liu Bei is taking action, preparing to rebel against the civil and military forces around Liu Biao, and officially wants to replace Liu Biao." This, I think, Cai Mao will definitely be able to do it, and will do it well. ”

However, even if this is the case, then Liu Biao knows that Liu Bei is ambitious and wants to really seize power, then Liu Biao may not dare to kill Liu Bei seriously, at most he will officially put Liu Bei under house arrest. At this critical time, how dare he anger Guan Yu and Zhang Fei because he killed Liu Bei? Cao Cao said suspiciously.

"Hehe, Liu Biao naturally didn't dare to kill." Xun You said: "However, according to Cai Mao's secret report, Liu Bei's actions in Xiangyang now are actually enough for Liu Biao to kill him a hundred times." Now, we only need to take Liu Bei's actions in Xiangyang and let Cai Mao secretly make a report to Guan Yu and Zhang Fei. To reveal a little meaning, just reveal that Liu Biao is already very dissatisfied with what Liu Bei has done. Then, a few more days. Cai Mao urgently revealed to Guan Yu and Zhang Fei that Liu Bei was ready to replace Liu Biao, but he was afraid that Liu Biao already knew Liu Bei's actions. It's possible to strike first...... Hehe, in this way, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei will definitely worry about Liu Bei and rush to Xiangyang from the front line. Just as Guan Yu and Zhang Fei left the front line, we ...... Liu Bei and Liu Biao successively"

Xun Yu rarely showed a slightly sinister look, and made a gesture of raising and falling with a knife.

"Then, then Cai Mao dare? Or can he do it? Cao Cao is most worried about this.

"It's not up to Cai Mao to dare. Now, it can be done. It has to be Cai Mao. Xun You said: "The Cai family is deeply rooted in Jingzhou, holds military power, and has a close relationship with Liu Biao's original subordinates. Moreover. Cai Mao is not a mediocre talent, and she still has a little talent. As soon as Liu Bei died, Liu Biao was blamed, and Liu Biao died again. Jingzhou is the only Cai Mao who can be the unification. And in the process of Liu Bei being victimized by Liu Biao. Cai Mao has always made a gesture that he has voted for Liu Bei, and has sent letters to Guan Yu and Zhang Fei many times to warn. In this way, after Cai Mao took over Jingzhou, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei may not embarrass Cai Mao. At this time, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were already ownerless generals after Liu Bei's death, and the lord could be recruited by Zhang Liao and Zhang Wenyuan. Even if you can't recruit it, it doesn't matter. Because the military and political power of Jingzhou has fallen into the hands of Cai Mao, and with the assistance of our generals. I believe that Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, who have no soldiers and no power, are helpless. Then, the son of Liu Biao can be launched as the pastor of Jingzhou, and a statement can be issued to submit to our court, and our military horses can be driven into Jingzhou, one step ahead of Liu Yi, and capture Jingzhou. ”

After Cao Cao listened, he pondered.

At this time, Li Dian returned to Xudu with the 500 generals who Liu Yi had let him return, asking to see Cao Cao.

Cao Cao knew from the reports of Xiahoudun and other generals that Li Dian had fallen into the ambush array of the New Han army, and he did not know his life or death. When he heard that Li Dian was back, he was overjoyed and personally went to the door of the Prime Minister's Mansion to welcome Li Dian back.

I have to say that sometimes, Cao Cao is still quite good at Corporal Lixian. Especially for the generals he particularly loves, he is more generous. He did not resent the generals for their defeat. Because he knew that even if it was him Cao Cao who led the army, I am afraid that he would also follow Liu Yi's way.

For him, as long as these of his generals can come back alive.

"Mancheng! You're not hurt, are you? It's good to be back! It's good to come back, come on, come in with us, drink some wine first, and give you a crush. Cao Cao didn't wait for Li Dian to kneel down and apologize, he stepped forward and pulled Li Dian in.

Li Dian looked ashamed, and with an unnatural expression, he let Cao Cao into the meeting hall.

A group of generals and ministers also came forward to comfort Li Dian with a few words.

However, Li Dian still pleaded guilty to Cao Cao, and he confessed that he had led more than 100,000 Cao troops to surrender to Liu Yi. and conveyed Liu Yi's words to Cao Cao.

After everyone heard this, Xun You said to Cao Cao: "Lord, congratulations, now that General Li Dian has returned safely, this is one joy, another joy, we are expected to capture Jingzhou!" ”

"Oh? What does this say? Cao Cao looked at Xun Yu puzzled.

"Lord, now, it is indeed inappropriate for us to increase troops to Wancheng, and Liu Yi is now afraid that he just wants to concentrate on capturing Jingzhou and threatening us, of course, if the lord really personally leads the army to Wancheng, then it is really possible to evolve into a big war between our court and the New Han Dynasty. This is not very beneficial to us. Therefore, why didn't the lord take advantage of the situation and agree to Liu Yi? In this way, Lewi will definitely think that after one or two setbacks, we are already afraid of him. The lord could reply to Liu Yi, stating that he would not raise any more troops to attack the New Han Dynasty. In this way, Lewi will inevitably stop paying attention to us. At the very least, it will be a little light on us. In this way, it is much more convenient for us to carry out the strategy that we have just devoured. Xun Yu said.

"It seems that this is also the ......" Cao Cao heard this, and felt that it was still possible to succeed in the plan.

As long as Liu Bei and Liu Biao die, the power of Jingzhou will fall into the hands of Cai Mao, as long as he secretly gathers troops, and when what he plans succeeds, his military horses can also quickly and directly enter Jingzhou.

The most important thing is to launch Liu Biao's son and surrender to himself, so that he can take over Jingzhou in a righteous manner. Let the people of the world have nothing to say, especially that he took over Jingzhou in the name of the imperial court, if Liu Yi wants to attack again, then Liu Yi is unknown and morally untenable.

"Good! Then, according to Gongda's words, immediately and secretly carry out this plan. This time. We can only succeed, not fail! Cao Cao thought about it for a long time before deciding to act as planned.

Cao Cao and Zhang Liao again. Go to the Jingzhou army camp again to see Guan Yu, and ask Zhang Liao not to come back, and be ready to seize the command of the Jingzhou army at any time. There was also Li Dian, and Cao Cao also sent him to accompany Zhang Liao to the Jingzhou military camp. Again, in Xiangcheng, Xiahou Yuan was left to guard, and Xiahou Yuan and Xu Huang also took a team of capable men and horses to Xiangyang secretly. Meeting with Cai Mao, if necessary, can be under Cai Mao's arrangement. Forcibly killed Liu Bei and Liu Biao.

In addition, there was Zhang He, Cao Cao ordered him to immediately secretly draw military horses from all over the country and secretly go to Runan to gather. Enter Jingzhou at any time. Pick up Jingzhou.

After arranging it, it's up to Cai Mao.

Well, let's talk about Jingzhou.

During this time, Liu Biao was shocked and angry.

Shockingly, Cao Cao's 200,000 military horses were attacked by the New Han army, and they were driven back before they could reach Wancheng. At that time, he was really shocked, because. Even Cao Cao's army is so vulnerable in front of the New Han Army, so what hope does he have for Liu Biao?

Own military horses. Under the leadership of peerless generals such as Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, they still failed to win Wancheng, and the attack on Wancheng has not progressed for a long time. Liu Biao was really worried that if Cao Cao's military horses didn't come to join the war, he could really only shrink his forces and strictly defend the New Han army, and as for how long he could hold it, he didn't know how long he could hold it.

Liu Biao was really worried that his military horses would suffer something in front of Wancheng, if it weren't for Cao Cao's quick reaction and the immediate dispatch of military horses, Liu Biao would really have to withdraw his army.

However, a few days later, Cao Cao's army was now reported again, and it was ambushed by the New Han army again in the same place, and the losses this time were greater than the first attack.

At this moment, Liu Biao was really scared. He couldn't trust Cao Cao anymore, and immediately secretly ordered his military horses to withdraw from before Wancheng.

And what about gas? was pushed to the stage by him, in order to invite Guan Yu and Zhang Fei to help him fight against the New Han Army, he had to invite Liu Bei to preside over the overall situation of Jingzhou under his name. However, this Liu Bei really made Liu Biao feel hateful and annoyed.

This girl really thought that she was seriously ill and very active in Xiangyang.

Well, although Liu Bei's every move was under Liu Biao's surveillance, Liu Biao did not restrict Liu Bei's personal freedom. After all, if Liu Bei was really completely placed under house arrest and Liu Bei imprisoned, once Guan Yu and Zhang Fei knew, how could they really help him Liu Biao to resist the attack of the New Han Army?

Therefore, Liu Biao simply replaced him by Liu Bei in Xiangyang as if he had become the lord of Jingzhou. However, this Liu Bei, he really didn't know what to do, he really thought that like the Kuai brothers Kuai Yue and Kuai Liang voted for him, leaned towards him, and wanted him Liu Bei to replace him Liu Biao as the lord of Jingzhou.

Well, Liu Bei may be really a little enchanted now, or he is too confident in himself. thought that with his own reputation and his reputation of benevolence and righteousness among the Han people, he could impress many celebrities and celebrities and be willing to assist him.

Just like the Mi brothers in Xuzhou at the beginning.

This Kuai family brother, in Liu Bei's eyes, is really a bit like the Mi Zhu and Mi Fang brothers in Xuzhou. is also a local celebrity, with an extraordinary family background, and is a local wealthy family. Liu Bei also knew that the reputation of the Kuai brothers in the Jingxiang area, as long as he had the support of the Kuai brothers, then it would no longer be a dream for him to replace Liu Biao.

What's more, Liu Bei thinks he still has the help of the Ma brothers?

Therefore, at the beginning of the year, Liu Bei was at the gate of the Kuai family almost every day, and contacted the brothers of the Kuai family every day to "feelings". He talked loudly and portrayed himself as a rare hero in the world, who is loved by people and loves each other and blooms with flowers and flowers, and is a rare Ming monarch in the world. It seems that as long as he Liu Bei is truly the lord of Jingzhou, he can unify the Han Dynasty, and he can take the people who follow him to establish an immortal foundation and leave his name in history......

Almost all the celebrities in Xiangyang have been visited by Liu Bei one by one, and I am afraid that knowing that some of them are Liu Biao's close ministers, Liu Bei has tried to see if he can win them over.

Liu Bei's actions in Xiangyang really made Liu Biao angry and ridiculous.

Ya, don't you Liu Bei know that the brothers of the Kuai family have an inextricable relationship with me Liu Biao? A certain and Kuai brothers, from the very beginning, designed a pit for you to enter the game? It's ridiculous that you still think that you have really subdued the Kuai brothers and have won the support of the Kuai brothers. actually conspired with the Kuai brothers. How are you planning to take over our Jingzhou? As everyone knows, what you plotted with the brothers of the Kuai family, the brothers of the Kuai family turned around and reported to themselves.

Anyway. Liu Biaoxiàn is here, as if he is looking at a clown, scurrying up and down in Xiangyang City, and thinking that he has a plan.

Seriously, I received the following secret report tomorrow, Liu Bei, who is full of benevolence and morality. It really made Liu Biao feel a little disgusting. If it weren't for the fact that he couldn't afford to provoke Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, the two generals, and now he would have to rely on Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, Liu Biao would probably immediately "cheat the corpse" from the "hospital bed". got better all of a sudden, and personally returned to the stage to preside over the overall situation of Jingzhou, without Liu Bei jumping up and down.

It's good now, Liu Biao was frightened for a while. Angry again. turned out to be really sick, these days, he is not in good spirits every day, his face is pale, he doesn't need to disguise anymore, he looks seriously ill.

Now that I got it, Liu Biao's heart was a little panicked, because. He knew that Liu Bei's so-called had subdued the Kuai brothers. and many of his close ministers, these are all fake, they were arranged early with a group of courtiers before, in order to appease Liu Bei's heart, let Liu Bei be in Xiangyang, in order to blackmail Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, or to contain Guan Yu and Zhang Fei. However, after Liu Biao was really sick, he couldn't help but be a little suspicious, sometimes, occasionally had nightmares, and even dreamed that his giant dependents were really persuaded by Liu Bei to betray him.

Often, Liu Biao would wake up in the middle of the night.

I don't know when Liu Biao actually had a feeling of being prepared for danger in times of peace, and he was a little less at ease with these close ministers around him.

In case, if something like that really happens, then the ridiculous may be that he Liu Biao himself, who lifted a stone to shoot himself in the foot.

With such a mentality, Liu Biao couldn't help it, and subconsciously wanted to test the loyalty of his close ministers to him. Therefore, he deliberately concealed the fact that he was really sick, and he didn't even tell the Kuai brothers.

Just after receiving the news that Cao's army was defeated again and failed to go to Wancheng, Liu Biao, who was shocked, hurriedly summoned a group of close ministers.

For the time being, Liu Biao couldn't help but test these close ministers, saying that Cao Cao could not be counted on now, it was better for him to come out in person to preside over the overall situation. Send Liu Bei to the front line, and let Liu Bei's three brothers guard Jiaxia, Anzhong and other places for him. He believes that now Liu Bei will not want to see Jingzhou taken by Liu Yi, and will definitely do his best to fight against the New Han army.

However, it was unanimously opposed by his close ministers, who all believed that at this time, by letting Liu Bei leave Xiangyang and letting Liu Bei get out of control, things might get worse. What if Liu Bei, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei leave? At that time, who could defeat the New Han army?

The worries of Liu Biao's close ministers were not unreasonable, but when they heard Liu Biao's ears, they changed their taste a little, making Liu Biao think that these close ministers didn't seem to want him to come out to preside over the power of Jingzhou again.

You must know that Liu Biao's sovereignty must also be assisted by these close ministers, if even these close ministers don't listen to him, then he Liu Biao is still the lord of Jingzhou? Still in charge of Jingzhou?

Therefore, Liu Biao's heart was very uncomfortable.

For this reason, he thought about it and felt that there was still a general by his side who he could trust to make him feel more at ease.

In this way, on his face, with the army in front of Wancheng, he withdrew to the defense lines of Jiaxia, Anzhong and other places. Secretly, he secretly ordered his cronies to transfer Cai Mao and Huang Zu back.

Liu Biaoxiàn is here, and the most trusted ones are naturally Huang Zu, Cai Mao, Wang Wei and other generals. With these cronies by his side, Liu Biao can feel at ease.

As for Cai Mao, when he received a secret letter from Liu Biao, he led a military horse back to Xiangyang, and at the same time, he also received a secret letter from Cao Cao.

Originally, he was leading the army on the front line, and he really didn't know what Cao Cao had to do, but now Liu Biao ordered him to lead a military horse back to Xiangyang, which just allowed Cai Mao to return to Xiangyang in the name of not having to arouse other people's speculation and suspicion.

In addition, Cao Cao explained that he asked him to send a report to Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, originally he suddenly sent a report to Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, and it would be very sudden for no reason, which would make people feel weird. However, or maybe it's really God helping Cai Mao.

Because before, Cai Mao and Guan Yu had some dealings. This is mainly due to the instinct of Cai Mao as a businessman. Well, it's a kind of intuition that is a strange thing to live in.

He saw Zhang Liao come to the Jingzhou military camp to see Guan Yu, and he secretly found out that Zhang Liao was here to be a lobbyist for Cao Cao, and wanted to recruit Guan Yu and Zhang Fei for Cao Cao. Finding out this news, Cai Mao subconsciously thought that no matter whether Cao Cao could recruit Guan Yu or not, he was already a person on Cao Cao's side. Now that Cao Cao wants to woo Guan Yu and send a general as a lobbyist for this purpose, it is right for him to have a good relationship with Guan Yu. In particular, if he can help Zhang Liao in lobbying Guan Yu to submit to Cao Cao, he will definitely make Cao Cao pay more attention.

For this reason, Cai Mao has deliberately stammered Guan Yu these days. Although it is impossible to say that Guan Yu has already been knotted, he can say a few words to Guan Yu, and even some wine and food he gave Guan Yu and Zhang Fei can be accepted.

All of these seemed to have laid a foundation for Cai Mao to carry out Cao Cao's plan, making him feel that if he acted according to Cao Cao's plan, he might not be unable to succeed.

In this way, Cai Mao decided to act according to Cao Cao's plan, and before returning to Xiangyang, he also deliberately went to resign to Guan Yu and showed his goodwill to Guan Yu. (To be continued......)
