Chapter 415: Great Change (3)
He Qi raised troops in Shanyin and counted Sun Quan's ten major crimes.
When the news reached Jingzhou, Liu Bei immediately realized that the situation was not good. He Qi's army also indicates that the situation in Jiangdong is completely erosive.
Imagine, after the defeat of Huiji, Wu County will inevitably be affected.
Sun Quan only had Danyang and Yuzhang in his hands, his reputation was damaged, and the people inside were panicked, how could he resist Liu Chuang's tiger and wolf soldiers?
"Shi Yuan, if Sun Quan is defeated by Liu Chuang, what should I do?"
Liu Bei found Pang Tong and asked him about countermeasures.
Obviously, Pang Tong didn't expect the situation in Jiangdong to erode so quickly, let alone that there would be such a complicated internal situation in Jiangdong. Sun Quan plotted to kill Sun Ce? At first glance it sounds ridiculous, but when you think about it, it seems that nothing is impossible. The family of the humanitarian princes has no family affection, and Sun Quan is ambitious, how can he be willing to live under Sun Ce? In this way, it is not surprising that he murdered Sun Ce.
But this incident happened too strangely.
Liu Chuang's behind-the-scenes handwriting is obvious......
It is conceivable that with He Qi's dispatch of troops, Sun Quan's situation will inevitably become very embarrassing. On the one hand, he has to resist Liu Chuang, and on the other hand, he has to pacify the interior. Liu Chuang's occupation of Huiji is equivalent to landing in the east of Jiangdong. Once they merged with Liu Yong and swept through Huiji, the next target must be Wu Jun or Yuzhang. And Sun Quan has no room to retreat.
Pang Tong pondered for a long time and raised his head.
"My lord, in this current situation, there are only two ways to go."
"I want to hear about it!"
Pang Tong thought for a while and said in a deep voice: "Fight or surrender." ”
Without waiting for Pang Tong to finish speaking, Liu Bei said loudly: "Shi Yuanxiu said that the word is lowered." Just talk about how to fight. ”
Joke. How could he surrender to Liu Chuang? From the beginning of the contradiction between the two. In the current situation, Liu Bei and Liu Chuang have no possibility of easing. If he surrenders, he will die. Then Liu Chuang would never let him go, so there was no need to consider this road at all.
If you don't surrender, you will only fight to the death.
Pang Tong gritted his teeth and said softly: "Jiangdong form, if there is no special reason, Sun Quan may be difficult to turn around."
The lord conspired to take the four counties of Jingnan. Not yet secure...... Although Liu Pan of Changsha said that he supported the lord, he was the son of Liu Biao after all, and it was impossible for him to really help. If the lord can't go to Jingzhou, there is no possibility of competing with Liu Chuang. The so-called dangerous tactics of the soldiers, the lord can only break the cauldron and sink the boat, seek to capture Jingnan, and join Liu Zhang in the west to fight against Liu Chuang. It's just that it's dangerous to do so, and if it's not good, the lord will fall into a place of no return. ”
When Liu Bei heard this, tears flashed in his eyes.
Shi Yuan just had to say. How to break the kettle.
Now there is no way out, but to fight to the death with that Chuang'er. ”
Pang Tong hesitated. He said softly: "There was Cao Cao in front of him, and he coerced the Son of Heaven to order the princes."
If the lord wants to control Jingnan, he needs to have someone to help, and that is Liu Jingzhou. As long as the lord can take Liu Jingzhou, he can pretend to be in the name of Liu Jingzhou and order Jing Xiang. But once the lord fails, I am afraid it will be difficult to have a foothold. In the land of Jingxiang, it is bound to hate the lord to the core. ”
Liu Bei gasped, stared at Pang Tong, and was speechless for a long time.
But I have to say that Pang Tong's strategy made him quite excited. If you can't integrate the power of the entire Jingzhou, how can you fight Liu Chuang?
However, this is very dangerous.
Just like Pang Tong said, one mistake will fall into a place of no return.
Liu Bei has always been a decisive person, but this time, he was a little hesitant......
"My lord, time will not wait for me. If there is no other way out, this plan will not be solved. But the lord is unwilling to surrender, and Liu Chuang will not agree to the surrender of the lord, so there is only one way out. If Jiangdong can support it for a while longer, when the lord completely controls Jingnan, there will be no chance. But now it seems that Sun Quan may not be able to last long, and once Sun Quan is defeated, Liu Chuang will inevitably send troops to Jingzhou. Liu Jingzhou has long had the intention of returning, and when he hands over Jingzhou, how can the lord have a place to stay? ”
Liu Bei didn't understand this truth, but he was known for his benevolence and righteousness, and this kidnapped Liu Biao...... Liu Bei closed his eyes, and after a long time, he made up his mind, "What Shi Yuan said is good, but now, only the soldiers are dangerous, and the big husband acts, how can he stick to the small sections?" ”
He looked at Pang Tong and said word by word: "In this way, Jiangxia will ask Shi Yuan!" ”
Don't look at Liu Qi's support for Liu Bei, but that is on the basis of ensuring Liu Qi's interests. If Liu Bei touched Liu Qi's interests, he would never give up. If Liu Bei hijacks Liu Biao, Liu Qi's chess piece will be useless. Even if he doesn't kill, he can't let him take charge of Jiangxia anymore.
Similarly, there is Liu Pan, who can't be let go.
Liu Bei is really desperate now, so he can only make up his mind to fight Liu Chuang to the death.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Liu Bei has been in Jingzhou for nearly five years, and of course it is impossible to keep to himself.
Although he looks like he is living under Liu Biao's tent on the surface, but in secret, he still runs a force to be reckoned with.
It's just that before that, Liu Bei hadn't shown it. Now that it's a matter of life and death, it's hard for him to leave anything behind.
In the middle of August of the 11th year of Jian'an, just when the battle of Jiangdong was about to end and the form began to appear, Pang Tong suddenly launched in Jiangxia and detained Liu Qi, who was stationed in Xiling. At this time, Liu Qi was completely defenseless. He has always regarded Liu Bei as his good assistant, how could he have thought that this good assistant, a good uncle, would suddenly turn his face? Jiangxia's military power is all controlled by Guan Yu. The defense of Xiling is also in charge of Guan Ping. Pang Tong almost effortlessly controlled Liu Qi unconsciously.
A few days later, that is, on the second day of Zhou Yu's soul, Liu Biao held a banquet in Xiangyang.
At the banquet, the old Yi of Shanyang, who came to Jingzhou with Liu Biao, suddenly had a seizure, kidnapped Liu Biao at the banquet, and then quickly retreated to Fancheng.
Liu Biao was kidnapped, which shocked the entire Jingzhou.
No one expected that Yi would make such an astonishing move, so that Jingzhou couldn't react.
Fortunately, Cai Mao held the military power in his hands and did not cause Xiangyang to fall into panic...... On the night of the Iraqi escape from Xiangyang, Cai Mao sent someone to Wancheng to deliver a letter, imploring Liu Chuang to send troops to help.
After Liu Chuang got the news, he was also surprised.
"This must be a dangerous move by Liu Xuande's soldiers, wanting to kidnap Liu Jingzhou, and follow the example of Cao Sikong when he served the Son of Heaven to order the princes to control Jingzhou."
Fa Zheng reacted immediately, and hurriedly stepped forward: "Lord, you must not let Liu Bei get Liu Jingzhou, otherwise Jingzhou will be in chaos." ”
Liu Chuang immediately woke up from the shock, and he was quite impressed by Fa Zheng's reminder.
To be honest, Liu Chuang did not want to settle Jingzhou's affairs by force. The battle of Jiangdong has not yet been pacified, and the battle of Hanzhong has just ended. The treasury is empty, and the people are exhausted. If Jingzhou can be resolved peacefully, it will be a happy thing for all. Prior to this, all the arrangements made by Liu Chuang were also efforts to peacefully resolve the Jingzhou matter. But now, Liu Bei suddenly made a dangerous move, and it seems that this confrontation is inevitable.
Taking a deep breath, Liu Chuang immediately issued an order: "Pass my order, Huang Zhong immediately marched east to the Green Forest Mountain to assist General Wenpin in dragging Guan Yu." With Zhao Yun as the vanguard army, he led the arrow to ride and set off immediately, and it was necessary to catch up with the Yi nationality and drag it down, so that Liu Jingzhou must not fall into the hands of Liu Bei. I personally led the flying bear guard to follow up, and Ziwen led the tiger and leopard rider to accompany me and went to Jingzhou to rescue Liu Jingzhou. (To be continued......)
