Chapter 366: Zhang Song presents a picture
PS: Jingjing is sick, and she has been out of state lately, and she is very distressed
Kuai Yue suddenly narrowed his eyes and asked carefully: "I don't know what kind of gift Mr. Yongnian brought, you must know that Jingzhou is rich in products, but there is nothing missing!" ”
Kuai Yue doesn't like Zhang Song, he always feels that Zhang Song is cunning and treacherous, doing business with such a person is undoubtedly seeking skin with the tiger, the tiger is not terrible, the terrible thing is that the tiger has the wisdom of a fox, although Zhang Song is not a tiger, but at least he is a fox.
Zhang Song was ridiculed by Kuai Yue, but he was not embarrassed, he took a few steps forward, and bowed three times solemnly: "Dare to ask General Zhennan, if Lu Bu captures Xichuan, where will his next target be?" You don't expect Lu Bu to do nothing, he is a wolf who can't be fed, I dare to assert that Lu Bu will attack Jingzhou in two years at most after he captures Yizhou! ”
Since Liu Biao and his advisers did not attach importance to this gift, Zhang Song was not in a hurry, and began to analyze the current situation for Liu Biao.
"Hit Jingzhou? Does he Lu Bu have that strength? Cai Mao squinted at Zhang Song, his eyes were sharp, Jingzhou has the Yangtze River moat, the internal rivers and mountains are intertwined, and there are rivers and lakes in the sky, Lu Bu is very powerful, but that is relative to the land war, if you want to attack Jingzhou without a navy, it is not possible, take 10,000 steps back, even if Lu Bu has a navy? The Jiangdong Navy Division crisscrossed the four seas, and it was not that they were beaten to the ground, curled up in the Jiangdong area to survive.
Zhang Song didn't dodge his gaze: "Does the Metropolitan Governor think that Lu Bu doesn't have this strength?" ”
Cai Mao said: "Yes, he Lu Buma's infantry is very powerful, but don't forget what kind of place Jingzhou is, how can he attack if he wants to?" If he is not afraid of death, even if he comes, my 100,000 sailors are waiting for him in the Yangtze River! ”
Although Cai Mao really wanted to make Badong's voice with Zhang Song. But he didn't like the tone of Zhang Song's speech very much, so he didn't save face for Zhang Song when he spoke, and it sounded as if he was educating his house slaves.
Zhang Song couldn't stop laughing when he heard this.
Cai Mao's face was very ugly, listening to Zhang Song's sharp laughter, as if he was invisibly slapping his cheek, he really wanted to go down and slap Zhang Song. to vent the anger in his heart. But with Liu Biao here, he didn't dare to be too presumptuous, he said a little angrily: "What are you laughing at, am I wrong?" ”
Zhang Song restrained his smile, he took a sip of tea casually, and said: "I probably understand what the Metropolitan Governor means, you are relying on your own 100,000 water army, and you don't take Lu Bu in your eyes, right?" ”
"Yes, that's what I meant," Cai Mao said proudly.
Zhang Song shook his head. sighed: "Jingzhou's 100,000 water army, even can't exterminate the Jinfan thief and Baling thief, its combat effectiveness is enough to spy on the leopard, now Zhou Tai and Gan Ning are in Lu Bu's army, plus Bashu is connected to Jingzhou, the mountains and rivers are not less than Jingzhou, if Lu Bu wants to train a water army, it is easier than eating." If people have no long-term concerns, they must have near-term worries, and most governors only want to take care of their homes and homes. Keep the land of this state, then there is nothing to say in the future, farewell! ”
After Zhang Song finished speaking, he got up and bowed to Liu Biao, then turned around and prepared to leave.
Kuai Yue hurriedly stepped forward to stop him, and said with a smile: "Forever and slowly." My lord is thirsty for talent, with eternal talents, come to my Jingzhou why not be reused, if the guess is good, you are in Chengdu. Isn't that what you're waiting for? ”
Thinking about a person like Zhang Song, as long as he is given the right price, as long as it does not endanger his life, I am afraid that he will do anything, otherwise he will not blatantly talk about business with Liu Biao.
Zhang Song said: "Yes, the way to achieve things is to wait for the price and sell, and sell the most suitable things to the people who need it most at the most correct time!" Zhang Song glanced at Cai Mao: "But it seems that Jingzhou's soldiers are strong and strong, as if they don't need it, so what else do I have to say?" ”
"Take the liberty of saying it, why don't you go to Lu Bu?" , This has always been a problem that Kuai Yue can't understand, obviously Lu Bu has entered Yizhou, according to the comparison of strength and Zhang Song's character, it is the most cost-effective for him to do business with Lu Bu, he doesn't understand why Zhang Song is willing to go far, and he came to Jingzhou to talk about business with Liu Biao thousands of miles away, and he knows that Zhang Song only has interests in his eyes, but now they don't know how much to open to satisfy Zhang Song.
Zhang Song was silent, and the whole hall was silent for a while, Kuai Yue quickly digested in his heart, Zhang Song, as Liu Zhang's important minister, actually had the heart to vote for Liu Biao, I thought he was just here for Badong County, but I didn't expect him to have other meanings, this is really an unexpected receipt.
In the middle of the ring, Zhang Songcai said: "You know Dongzhou Shilin, if Lu Bu occupies Yizhou, the Shilin gate lords of the Jingzhou faction are about to fall into a place of no return, we are seeking a way out, this is the reason from beginning to end, he has already made it very clear when we met,"
Liu Biao spread out a piece of paper, grinding the ink unhurriedly, and when the ink was ready, Liu Biao poured a little water on the inkstone, looked at the drip pot, and said: "Yongnian, what do you want from me, just say it!" ”
Zhang Song's face turned pale, and he said in a deep voice: "The general's eyes are like torches, in fact, he is here today just to ask you for a word!" ”
"Oh?" Liu Biao put down the wolf's pen, this strange request surprised Liu Biao.
Zhang Song swallowed his saliva, and said word by word: "The Jingzhou scholars in Yizhou are always looking forward to the general one day leading the army into Shu and building the great cause of Gaozu, only ask the general if he has this intention, if there is, we will welcome the general into Shu, and we will send a topographic map of the mountains and rivers of Yizhou!" ”
After he finished speaking, he took out a cowhide map from his arms, walked to Liu Biao, and then placed the map neatly on the table in front of Liu Biao.
When Liu Biao heard this, he carefully looked at the map on the table, no matter how well he disguised it, a frightened look flashed in his eyes, and he slowly spoke: "Yongnian, where did you get this thing from?" ”
Liu Biao was not shocked at this time, you must know that this kind of thing is not something that ordinary people can get, in Dahan, a map, that is the highest military secret of the state and county, if anyone leaks the map, even if it is just a map of a city or a place, it will be razed by the nine tribes, not to mention that Zhang Song's map includes the terrain of Xichuan's large and small counties, and even the trails are marked, which is a rare treasure.
"This is painted after consulting Xichuan's classics and traveling for several years, here, it is specially dedicated to the general", when he said the last sentence, the anger in Zhang Song's eyes suddenly burst out, like a gambler who did not want to die.
Liu Biao spread his hands and said helplessly: "I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint Yongnian, Liu Jiyu and I belong to the same emperor of the Han family, how can I invade his state and county?" ”
Liu Biao admitted that he was moved the moment he saw the map, but after struggling in his heart for a long time, he still decided to refuse Zhang Song's kindness, after all, there are not many relatives of the Han royal family now, Liu Miao and Liu Dai have died in battle, and now only he and Liu Zhang are still occupying a state, how can he bear to invade his state and county. Besides, he is one of the Eight Horses, and he is a famous scholar, how can he do such a shameful thing, Liu Biao thought in his heart.
"You must go!" Zhang Song ignored the etiquette and almost rushed to Liu Biao: "If you don't go, then our Dongzhou Shilin will fall into a place of no return!" ”
He has now had a showdown with Liu Biao, and he also showed the drawn map in front of him, if Liu Biao took into account the feelings of the clan and refused to enter Shu, then everything he did would be in vain, and if Liu Biao told Liu Zhang about this, then he would die without a place to bury, and those who were good at calculating interests in everything would be afraid of death, and death would be the most unacceptable condition for them. It was a big gamble, but he seemed to have lost.
Liu Biao said: "If Dongzhou Shilin is worried that Lu Bu will meet them Xiahou, then let them come to Jingzhou, the door of Jingzhou is open for them at any time, if it is conditional on entering Shu, I will not agree!" ”
"That's it?" Zhang Song looked disappointed.
"Yes, after Liu Zhang and I are both Gaozu, can I take his state and county? You go back and tell him that if he doesn't cede Badong, I will also send troops to Shangyong to persuade him to resist Lu Bu! ”
"General, you have to think twice, this is a great opportunity, if you hesitate, it's too late to regret!" Zhang Song shouted a little out of shape.
"Sending off guests", Liu Biao did not answer him, but concentrated on drawing a post, ignoring the topographic map of Yizhou placed next to him, as if looking at the air.
Cai Mao was a little panicked, and hurriedly whispered: "Lord, this"
Although he didn't like Zhang Song, the gift sent by Zhang Song was indeed very heavy, and it was also a good opportunity for them to expand the chassis, and he couldn't understand why Liu Biao refused. Kuai Yue's lips moved next to her, but she didn't speak, because she knew Liu Biao's temper, and it was useless to say it, wasting her tongue.
Liu Biao raised his head and glared at Cai Mao, so frightened that Cai Mao hurriedly closed his mouth, and seeing that Cai Mao didn't speak, Liu Biao was faint: "Don't worry, I won't tell Ji Yu!" ”
Zhang Song took a few steps back, he looked Liu Biao up and down for a long time, and finally smiled dumbly: "Since the general has no intention, then he will retire!" ”
"Your map." Liu Biao reminded without raising his head.
Zhang Song paused, then turned around and rolled up the map on Liu Biao's desk, and left Liu Biao's living room without looking back.
Liu Biao's wolf pen paused, and then flipped the entire table to the ground: "The traitor who seeks glory still wants me to protect him, it's just wishful thinking, different degrees, immediately repair a book, send a horse to Yizhou, and tell Liu Zhang about it!" ”
Kuai Yue said: "Lord, that map is a good thing, I suggest sending someone to intercept and kill Zhang Song in the middle of the road!" ”
Cai Mao's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly nodded vigorously on the side, although he was not used to seeing Kuai Yue, but at this moment his thoughts were the same as Kuai Yue.
Liu Biao picked up the good post and blew it, and after drying the ink on it, he said while admiring it: "I don't know about this matter, you can arrange it yourself!" ”
Cai Mao and Kuai Yue glanced at each other, and then bowed to Liu Biao in unison and said goodbye. (To be continued.) )
