However, Sun Ce and Zhou Yu wanted to destroy Jiangxia, but it was not as easy as they imagined.

Proposed four years, August 30.

The Jiangdong army and the Jiangxia army fought fiercely on the river for ten days, Huang Zujie was defeated and retreated, Exian was breached, Liu Biao's son Liu Hu was also shot by Jiangdong general Huang Gai with an arrow, Huang Zu fled in a hurry, the Jiangdong army took advantage of the situation to advance westward, and the soldiers pointed directly at Shaxian.

But at this moment, Liu Biao sent his advisor Kuai Liang to visit Wancheng on the grounds of congratulating Wang Chong on his wedding, which made the situation that had gradually become clear again.

"The master of Jingzhou's pastoral throne, Kuailiang, has seen General Annan!"

"Oh? It turned out to be Mr. Zirou, take a seat! Wang Chong squinted at the tall but slightly sickly middle-aged man in front of him, and said with a slight smile, "I don't know why Mr. Zirou visited my Jinfan Office today?" ”

Kuai Liang arched his hand and said: "Liang is mainly on the order of my lord today, and he made a special trip to congratulate General Annan on his wedding. ”

Wang Chong laughed and said: "Mr. Zirou, more than a month has passed since the wedding, and Liu Jingzhou has only sent Mr. Zirou here now, which is too insincere, right?" ”

In the face of Wang Chong's sarcasm, Kuai Liang's face did not change: "The general doesn't know anything, Huainan and Jingzhou are closed to news, and Liu Jingzhou just learned about this matter a few days ago, but he didn't mean to be negligent, and I ask the general to forgive me." ”

Wang Chong didn't intend to continue the hypocrisy of going back and forth with Kuai Liang, so he waved his hand and said: "Mr. Zirou, there is no need to talk about the scene, Ben Jiang has never liked to beat around the bush, you better open the skylight and say something bright, and explain your intentions directly." ”

“…… The general is really fast! A touch of embarrassment flashed on Kuai Liang's face, and he smiled bitterly, "In fact, with the wisdom of a general, how can you not guess Liang's intentions?" That's right, as the general thought, Liang did come for the Jiangxia war this time. ”

Wang Chong said with a smile: "Does Liu Jingzhou want me Jinfan to send troops to contain the Jiangdong forces for you?" ”

"General Mingjian!" Kuai Liang nodded and said, "Uncle Sun Fu is a wolf, and he wants to rush out of Jiangdong to expand his territory, and I, Jingzhou and the general's Huainan, are all the first to bear the brunt, so my lord hopes that you and I can form an alliance and work together to fight against the great enemy Sun Ce!" ”

Wang Chong retorted: "But how did Ben General hear that Sun Ce's main purpose of sending troops this time was to avenge his father? You must know that my Han Dynasty is based on filial piety to govern the country, so what reason does this general have to stop Sun Ce from fulfilling his filial piety? However, there is a suggestion here, maybe Mr. Zirou can tell Liu Jingzhou on his behalf and let him think about it. ”

"General, but it doesn't hurt to speak."

Wang Chong smiled and said: "The general's suggestion is very simple, hand over Huang Zu to Sun Ce, if it is really just to avenge his father, he will inevitably withdraw after getting what he wants, on the contrary, if Sun Ce continues to attack Jingzhou, at that time, I Jinfan will no longer sit idly by!" ”

Kuai Liangleng paused for a moment, and said with a wry smile: "The general doesn't know, in fact, my brother Yidu has already proposed this to the lord, but Huang Zu is my general in Jingzhou, how can my lord agree?" ”

"Oh?" Wang Chong said with a smile, "It seems that the relationship between Brother Ling and Huang Zu is not harmonious." ”

"......" Kuai Liang's old face was slightly hot, after all, the contradictions that arose within his Jingzhou were regarded as a joke by Wang Chong, an outsider, which was not a glorious thing.

In fact, the contradiction between Kuai Yue and Huang Zu has to be traced, that is, what has happened in recent months, and the point of conflict of the contradiction is about the war in the north.

Huang Zu was optimistic about Yuan Shao and proposed that Liu Biao send troops to attack Cao Cao's rear during the war, Kuai Yue was more optimistic about Cao Cao, and resolutely denied Huang Zu's suggestion, persuading Liu Biao to make good friends with Cao Cao and never ally with Yuan Shao, so the two had a fierce quarrel, thus forming a Liangzi.

Huang Zu has always been a staunch anti-Cao faction, and in history, if Huang Zu had not been killed by the Jiangdong army just before the Battle of Chibi, Cai Mao and other pro-Cao factions would not have taken control of Jingzhou so easily and dedicated it to Cao Cao.

Wang Chong looked at Kuai Liang with a smile: "Mr. Zirou, if you can't find any better reason to convince the general, then the alliance between you and me, why don't you stop it!" ”

"This ......" Kuai Liang didn't think that Wang Chong would refuse so decisively, his face immediately changed, and he said hurriedly, "General think twice, does the general really think that Sun Ce's attack on Jiangxia is just to avenge Sun Jian?" ”

Wang Chong smiled faintly and said, "What does Mr. Zirou want to say?" ”

Kuai Liang persuaded each other bitterly: "General, if you are together, you will benefit both, and if you leave, you will be injured, and your lips will be dead and your teeth will be cold." ”

"Why did Mr. Zirou say it so nicely?" Wang Chong sneered, "Cold lips and teeth? In my opinion, Liu Jingzhou just wants to use my Jinfan as a knife! ”

Kuai Liang's face was extremely ugly: "What does the general mean by this?" ”

"Mr. Zirou, I will ask you, if Sun Ce or Cao Cao sends troops to attack my Jinfan in the future, will you Jingzhou send troops to help?" Wang Chong stared at Kuai Liang sharply, "I hope that Mr. Zirou will touch his conscience before answering the question and form an alliance?" I think it's a use, right? ”

"I ......" Wang Chong's knife-like gaze made his conscience beat wildly, and he was choked back just when he wanted to open his mouth to explain.

"What? Why don't you speak? Was Ben right? Wang Chong sneered, "Mr. Zirou, I will respect you as a Jingxiang celebrity, so I will treat you with courtesy, but this does not mean that I will be resigned to you, whether it is an alliance or a use, I Jinfan can send troops to contain a part of the Jiangdong troops for you, but the premise is to see the sincerity of your Jingzhou first." ”

"Sincerity?" Kuai Liang suddenly woke up when he heard this, and dared to love Wang Chong for a long time, just to ask for benefits, and immediately cried and laughed, "The hustle and bustle of the world is for profit, and the hustle and bustle of the world is for profit. ”

Wang Chong said with a smile: "Let's talk about it, presumably before Mr. Zirou set off, Liu Jingzhou had given Mr. certain permissions. ”

"Forehead......" Kuai Liang said embarrassedly, "this ...... Not really. ”

"Huh?" Wang Chong's gaze instantly became extremely cold, "Liu Jingzhou is so sure that my Jinfan will unconditionally help you contain Jiangdong?" What kind of thing is he? When today's son? Is it that no matter what he says, I Jinfan must obey him? Yes!? ”

Kuai Liang panicked when he heard this: "The general is angry, my lord has never meant this!" ”

"And what does he mean?" Wang Chong sneered and asked, "I think Liu Biao is old and confused, I Jinfan is not his subordinate, and I have no obligation to do things for him at all, since he is so insincere, Mr. Zirou should please go back, so as not to humiliate himself again." ”

"......" Wang Chong's strength made Kuai Liang very helpless, and sighed, "Please ask the general to make conditions, no matter what, Liang will try his best to convince the lord." ”

"In this case, within half a month, Ben will see 200,000 stone grain and grass, otherwise, Hugh wants Ben to send a single soldier!"

"Two hundred thousand stones!?" Kuai Liang was dumbfounded, this Nima is simply a lion's mouth.

Wang Chong nodded, and said resolutely: "Well, 200,000 stones, not a grain of rice is missing!" ”

Kuai Liang was puzzled: "This ...... General, as far as Liang knows, Jinfan should not be short of food and grass, right? ”

"Is there still too much food and grass?" Wang Chong looked at Kuai Liang playfully, "Or is Mr. Zirou saying this, in fact, he is ridiculing my Jinfan's actions?" ”

Kuai Liang said in fear: "Don't dare! ”

"It's best if you don't dare, maybe one day in the future, Jingzhou will also implement such a system, if Mr. Zirou can't accept it, it will make it very difficult for Ben."

"Hiss-" Wang Chong's words made Kuai Liang gasp, Jiangdong had already hit Jingzhou before it was extinguished, where did he get his confidence?

"Okay, this matter is settled, 200,000 stone grain and grass will be delivered within half a month, if Liu Biao doesn't agree, then let him deal with Sun Ce himself!"
