Chapter Twenty-Eight: A Walk in Blood

Hidden between the mountains and rivers, the Water Mirror Villa is like a paradise, with birds singing and fragrant flowers, and outstanding people.

At this time, in front of the stone table in the villa, Pang Decheng and Sima Hui sat and played chess, and a slightly ugly young man sat between the two.

The twelve-year-old boy was silent and solemn, and he couldn't help but forget his appearance and remember his focused look.

The boy in the villa ran to Sima Hui's side and said loudly: "Sir, there is a person who calls himself Kuai Yue who asks to see him. ”

Sima Hui asked the waiter to invite the guest in, and was just about to seal the chess to welcome the guest, but Pang Degong waved his hand and said: "There is no need to be like this, I am afraid that I am here to find me, and you and I don't have to be polite to the guests." ”

Sima Hui, who suddenly realized in an instant, smiled lightly: "It seems that the Jingxiang clan can't sit still, Jingzhou, can't go on any longer." ”

Pang Degong nodded thoughtfully, although he has never been an official, but he is highly respected, in terms of filial piety, there is such a virtuous and respected talent to praise, not only can serve the public, but also can be used to make a name, Pang Degong has a great relationship with the Jingxiang family, and his influence is extraordinary.

Kuai Yue, who looked burly, was dressed in a clean and neat robe, and slowly walked to the stone table with a modest look on his face, bowed and saluted: "Kuai Yue came uninvited, and I hope the two gentlemen will forgive me for the abrupt place." ”

Sima Hui nodded kindly and didn't speak, he also guessed that Kuai Yue was here for Pang Degong, so he didn't take the lead.

"I haven't seen you for a few years, and Xenomorph is still as majestic." The chess pieces in Pang Degong's hand continued to fall, tepidly, stretched out his hand to ask, and motioned for Kuai Yue to take a seat.

Kuai Yue sat down across from the twelve-year-old boy and asked with some confusion, "Who is this?" ”

Pang Degong said casually: "It's my nephew, Pang Tong." ”

Pang Tong, who was not likeable, got up and left his seat, respectfully gave Kuai Yue a salute, and then sat down, calm and calm, polite and moderate.

Kuai Yue had a good impression of this young man in his heart, but now that he came to have something important, he got straight to the point.

"Sir, Liu Yuanjun has arrived in Jingzhou, and is waiting outside Shuijing Villa with Cai Mao, hoping to see Mr."

The door of Shuijing Villa has never been closed, no matter when it is open to welcome guests, but Liu Biao arrived in Jingzhou, and after planning with the two brothers of Kuai Yue Kuailiang, he went north to Xiangyang City, and got Cai Mao's support. It also avoids embarrassment.

Pang Degong, who smiled when he heard this, looked at Kuai Yue and asked, "Yuan Highway is stationed in Nanyang, how did Liu Jingsheng get to Jingzhou?" ”

Kuai Yue briefly informed Pang Degong of the fact that Liu Biao abandoned the three thousand soldiers that Dong Zhuo gave him and infiltrated Yicheng alone.

With this courage, Liu Jingsheng is worthy of being one of the eight horses in the world. He is a member of the Han family and has a noble status, and he has this qualification to lead Jingzhou. ”

Pang Degong's words made Kuai Yue also nod in agreement.

Jingzhou can't go on any longer, but to end the chaos and put order on the right track, it's not so simple.

"Alien, I won't be able to see Liu Yuanjun, but you can bring him a word for me, I hope Liu Yuanjun can work hard and let the people of Jingzhou live and work in peace and contentment."

With this sentence, Kuai Yue knew in his heart that Pang Degong was unwilling to assist Liu Biao, but would help Liu Biao stabilize the situation in Jingzhou.

A few days later, in Xiangyang City, Cai Mao's secret room, Liu Biao, Kuai Yue Kuailiang, and Cai Mao were planning.

The situation of the thieves in Jingzhou made Liu Biao at a loss, not to mention that Yuan Shu was sleeping soundly on the side of the couch, and he didn't know when Yuan Shu would lead the army to capture the entire territory of Jingzhou.

Liu Biao had no soldiers in his hands, so it was difficult to exterminate dozens of thieves in Jingzhou, which made him distressed.

However, the resourceful Kuai Liang shook his head and said: "In today's situation, if you follow the path of benevolence and righteousness, the people of Jingzhou will definitely join you wholeheartedly, so why worry about the overall situation?" If he is not benevolent and unjust, even if he has thousands of troops and horses, how can he let Jingzhou sincerely belong to him? ”

This is the overall strategic policy, looking at the overall situation, it should indeed be so, Liu Biao nodded and praised, but how to start, there is still no countermeasure.

At this time, Kuai Yue continued his brother's countermeasures and said: "Those who rule peace take benevolence and righteousness first, and those who control chaos put power and scheming first." Yuan Shu is brave and undecisive, so there is nothing to worry about. If I send someone to show his benefit, the leader of the clan will definitely come with the people, so that the king will punish the unreasonable, and then use his people to defend Jingzhou. After that, the envoy broadcast benevolence and righteousness, and the virtue was far and wide, and the people would definitely bring the old and the young to join the envoy, and when the soldiers gathered to attach the people, why be afraid of Yuan Shu? ”

Everyone who heard it was shocked, and Liu Biao came back to his senses for a long time, excitedly held Kuai Yue and Kuai Liang's hands, and said: "Zi Rou's words can be described as Yongji's theory, a different plan, and a plan for a murderer. Why worry about Jingzhou's injustice? ”

Cai Mao is a military general, and the Cai family now only has about 3,000 private soldiers for him to dispatch, but he said with a worried face: "Envoy, this plan is very good, but it is also very dangerous, if the sect thief's subordinates make trouble, what should be done at that time?" ”

Liu Biao also knows this in his heart, but he is just taking risks, no matter how thoughtful the strategy is, it is impossible to be completely sure, for Liu Biao, who entered Jingzhou alone, he will take a risk if he can have three points of certainty.

But Kuai Yue took out a piece of white silk, presented it to Liu Biao, bowed his head and said; "My lord, this is the roster of thieves in Jingzhou who are willing to serve the lord."

A lord declares his position and loyalty.

Liu Biao was overjoyed, and took a look at it, and countless names were signed in densely varying handwriting.

This roster is Pang Degong's contribution to helping Liu Biao stabilize Jingzhou.

Since Sun Jian killed the king of Jingzhou, the rebellion has intensified, and the clan and the wealthy clan have long been complaining, at first just to rob the civilian labor and disputes, and later even despised the scholars, and what they did has tended to be a rebellion, therefore, the clan also hopes to end this fearful day, belong to the monarch, and it is better to make a fortune in a muffled voice than to lose your head.

After a few days, the leaders of the thieves from all over the country came to visit Liu Biao, called to meet, but in fact they despised it, they came to negotiate with Liu Biao, and supported Liu Biao as the pastor of Jingzhou, but there must be enough benefits, and the leaders of the thieves who breed and gradually expand their ambitions all want to dominate a city and a place to be the emperor of the soil, Liu Biao has no power and power, what about the Han clan? With a knife on his neck, will he be able to grow another head?

A banquet was held in Cai's Mansion to entertain the leaders of the fifty-five clans and thieves, although Liu Biao sat on the throne, he always bowed down and smiled humbly, and the Cai Mansion also took out the good wine and drunken immortals that had accumulated for many years for the leaders of the sect and thieves to drink.

After the wine was hot, the drunkenness came to the head, and the leaders of the sect and thieves also began to make a lot of nonsense, disrespectful to Liu Biao, disrespectful to the Han family, disrespectful to the Son of Heaven, and so on.

Liu Biao's flattering smile slowly disappeared, and after the leaders of the sect and thieves were already more than half drunk, Liu Biao's face turned cold.

picked up the wine jug and filled himself with a glass of drunken immortals, Liu Biao toasted frequently, but he didn't drink a sip.

Bang dang

The wine jug was casually dropped by Liu Biao under the hall, making a big noise.

bang

The sword and axe men who broke through the door poured into the hall like tigers, raised their machetes and slashed at the heads of the leaders of the sect thieves.

There was a sound of fighting and shouting in the lobby, blood splashing in all directions like a torrent, Liu Biao closed his eyes and slowly drank the wine in the cup, and only spit out a mouthful of wine after a long time.

Drunken immortals, well-deserved wine in the world, how many people can drink the strong heroic taste in it?

Putting down the wine glass, Liu Biao, who was kneeling, got up slowly, tidied up the edges of the brocade robe in a good time, and walked down the main seat, the ground in the hall was no longer clean, and it was all covered with blood.

Every step of the footsteps in the blood river to step out a footprint, Liu Biao head high, elegant and dignified, nearly forty years old Liu Biao at this time did not look at the fifty-five heads in the hall, leisurely strolling out of the door.

In the courtyard outside the door, there were hundreds of people standing densely, brightly dressed, and they were by no means ordinary people.

The three people listed in front of everyone are Kuai Yue, Kuai Liang and Cai Mao.

When Liu Biao stepped out of the gate and stood still, everyone saluted in unison and said, "Meet Liu Jingzhou!" ”

In the middle of the night when the waning moon was high, after Liu Biao entered Jingzhou alone, he quickly got rid of fifty-five clan and thief leaders, and the Jingxiang clan led by the Kuai family and the Cai family all joined Liu Biao.

At this time, Guo Jia, who was in Yizhou, had just sent troops from Chengdu to prepare to attack Jingzhou.

Kuai Yue Kuailiang made a miraculous contribution to Liu Biao's pacification of Jingzhou, which was naturally valued by Liu Biao, but Cai Mao, who only wielded a butcher's knife to contribute, was afraid that Liu Biao would rely on the Kuai family and despise the Cai family, so he sent the little sister who was like a flower in the family to Liu Biao's state pastor's mansion.

All the private soldiers of the fifty-five clans of the Jingxiang clan were handed over to Liu Biao, and Liu Biao in Xiangyang immediately had nearly 80,000 troops, plus the small warlord Zhang Hu Chen Sheng in Xiangyang City surrendered to Liu Biao, Liu Biao not only had peace in Jingxiang in a short time, but also brought 100,000 armor.

Liu Biao quickly began to stabilize the place, he was based on Jingzhou, relying on the scholars and the nobles, and the governance of the place continued in the past, and the government affairs of Jingzhou were handed over to the Jingzhou scholars.

Just like when Guo Jia first became the owner of Yizhou, Liu Biao was also so busy at the beginning that he forgot to sleep and eat.

However, a piece of news shocked him in his busy schedule.

"Guo Jia led troops to attack Jingzhou?"

Liu Biao looked at Cai Mao, who was reporting the news.

Cai Mao wiped the cold sweat on his head and confirmed: "The clan of Jianping County came to report that Guo Jia led the army from Chengdu to Badong County, and the number of men and horses was probably no less than 50,000, and there was no war in Badong County, if Guo Jia didn't lead the army to invade Jingzhou, what would he want?" ”

Liu Biao was shocked and immediately convened the ministers and generals to discuss the matter.
