Liu Bei did not hesitate to put down Yuzhang and Luling counties, and was recalled by his own order, no matter what kind of suspicion he had before, at this time, Liu Biao couldn't help but feel guilty, so when Liu Bei returned to Xiangyang, Liu Biao led the Jingzhou ministers out of the city for ten miles to meet, outside Xiangyang City, staged a scene of brother, friend and brother Gong's bloody plot, but after this incident, Liu Bei was deeply popular in Xiangyang, and was soon resent to Xinye by Liu Biao, and took the initiative to expand the original 2,000 people to 10,000 people, and the supply of grain and grass was complete.

At the same time, the two counties of Yuzhang and Luling naturally couldn't let go easily, and after thinking about it again, Liu Biao sent Huang Zu and Kuai Liang to serve as the two county guards respectively.

After that, as Zhuo Ao expected, Kuai Liang was quite restrained, but Huang Zu was in two months, and the local family had no less than ten conflicts, and even moved troops to suppress it, even with it, Kuai Liang was also affected, was rejected by the two county families, and at the end of the second month, the two counties Zhu and Zhang secretly sent envoys to ask Zhuo Ao to take back the two counties, and said that in the future, only Zhuo Ao would be the first to look forward.

Zhuo Ao was noncommittal, and immediately sent Lu Lingqi and Zou Yulan to lead 5,000 soldiers and horses to attack, and under the guidance of the two families, the attack was very smooth, and the two female generals ended the battle within one day.

Huang Zu was defeated and fled back to Jiangxia, but Kuai Liang was frantically pursued by Zou Yulan, chased and killed until the riverside, and executed Kuai Liang Ling Chi alive, even if he didn't know the reason, he could see that if there was no pain in his teeth, how could he have such a crazy move.

Since then, the two counties of Yuzhang and Luling have returned to the hands of Zhuo Ao after nearly two years, and compared with the beginning, Jiangdong today is truly stable, after the ravages of Huangzu. The family of the two counties has already suffered a lot of vitality, and then Zhuo Ao easily took over the power of the two counties, and the family gate valves of Wu County, Huiji and Danyang County have already been cleaned up by Zhuo Ao like a tiger without minions.

In the next three years, Zhuo Ao continued to recuperate, set up a private school, and naturalized Yiyue. Develop the people's livelihood and rectify the armament, and at this time, Cao Cao also completed the integration of the north, and successfully killed Yuan Shao's two sons, and the north took seven years after the battle of Guandu to finally complete the unification.

Cao Cao coerced the Son of Heaven to order the princes, and prepared to go south with the momentum of a great victory in the north, at this time Liu Biao was already old. The energy is no longer what it used to be, and Liu Bei is also at this time, and finally invited Zhuge Liang to come out of the mountain to help, and the situation of the Three Kingdoms has faintly taken shape.

However, the three-point world is definitely not what Zhuo Ao wants to see, in that way, the opportunity to dominate the world will be postponed indefinitely, if not for more than a hundred years as it has been in history. But at this time, Jiangdong was limited by geography and wanted to dominate the world. It is difficult to achieve things without decades, which is contrary to the original intention of Zhuoao.

This impasse must be broken.

Liu Biao failed to survive after all, and after learning that Cao Cao Xing's troops were going south, he didn't keep up in one breath, and returned to the west with a crane, and Cao Cao sent troops to Xinye. Cai Mao and Zhang Yun controlled the Jingzhou regime and refused to send troops, Liu Bei was alone, so it was naturally difficult to resist, so he helped the old and the young all the way to Jiangxia. At the same time, Zhuge Liang was sent as an envoy to Jiangdong, hoping to unite Jiangdong's forces and counter Cao Cao.

Jianye, Lu Su took Zhuge Liang to Zhuoao's palace, bowed down and said: "Lord, this is Mr. Zhuge Liang of Wolong, this time I was ordered by Uncle Liu Huang to come to discuss with our army to jointly fight against Cao. ”

Lu Su, is three years ago after Zhuo Ao sat firmly in Jiangdong, in Wu County Gu Yong's recommendation to vote, since Zhuo Ao subdued Jiangdong, the major families have also recognized Zhuo Ao's dominant position, have sent the clan to vote, the most optimistic about Zhuo Ao, naturally is Wu County's Lu Xun, Gu Yong, in addition, although Zhuo Ao has found Zhou Yu, but unfortunately Zhou Yu avoided it, Zhuo Ao did not bother anymore, he is not Liu Bei, for a Zhuge Liang, willing to look at the thatched house, Zhuo Ao himself is not inferior to the wisdom of any top talent in the world, And he is an all-rounder in civil and military affairs, Zhou Yu avoids it, and Zhuo Ao will not put down his face to invite two or three times.

In the final analysis, it is still a matter of demand, Liu Bei urgently needs a wise man who can give advice to himself, and Zhuo Ao does not have this urgent need, even if there is no Zhou Yu, he is now fully equipped with civil and military forces and talents.

"Well, Wolong and Phoenix Chicks, you have to settle the world, Uncle Huang is really a blessing, you can get Zhuge Wolong's help, Mr. Kong Ming, please take a seat." Zhuo Ao smiled and looked at this mythical figure, he naturally did not have the dilemma of Sun Quan in history at this moment, and it was naturally impossible to stage the drama of distinguishing Confucianism.

"The general praises falsely, Kong Ming is just a village man, ploughing in Nanyang, my lord Uncle Liu Huang is not contemptuous of Liang, and Liang is my lord's liver and brain." Zhuge Liang said modestly.

"If Cao Cao hears this, his scruples should hurt again, and the villager will frustrate his spirit twice, and the conceited and resourceful men under him will probably die of shame." Zhuo Ao shook his head and smiled.

Zhuge Liang smiled slightly, didn't answer, and said, "I don't know if Zijing has explained Liang's intention to the general?" ”

"I don't need him to say it, I can guess that with Uncle Huang's character, he probably won't compromise with Cao Cao, otherwise he won't leave Jiangxia with the old and the young." Zhuo Ao nodded.

Lu Su smiled and said: "Kong Ming doesn't know, my lord is dissatisfied with Cao Cao for a long time, this time Cao Cao went south, intending to encroach on the world, my Jiangdong soldiers have already been gearing up and preparing to fight with Cao Cao." ”

"So very good, with Jiangdong's strong courage, plus my lord, although Cao Cao's momentum is great this time, but the arrogant army will be defeated, and he will definitely be given a lesson that he will never forget." Zhuge Liang smiled.

It is a matter of decision in itself, naturally there is no conflict, and the next conversation is also a pleasure for the guests and hosts, but unfortunately I couldn't see Kong Ming's demeanor of distinguishing Confucianism, but it is also a pity, as for the ownership of interests after the war, both sides tacitly did not talk about it, no matter how to put gold on their faces, Liu Bei entered Jiangxia City, and there were only 30,000 soldiers, and there were only a few old cadres in the generals, if they were put on the table, they would only make jokes.

Second, anyway, Cao Cao is now a powerful party, a million male soldiers are real, the main force here is naturally Jiangdong, Zhuo Ao has been recuperating over the years, developing people's livelihood, rectifying armaments, planning to raze Yue, the total number of troops is only 300,000, and there are many to be used to suppress the often chaotic Shanyue, can be put into the war, in fact, it is only about 100,000 soldiers and horses, plus Liu Bei's entire family background, it is just over one-tenth of the family, now talk about the distribution of benefits after the victory, it is a little arrogant.

What's more, both Zhuge Liang and Zhuo Ao know very well that no matter what they say now, the distribution of benefits after the war will ultimately depend on their own abilities.

"Zijing, you won't be deceived again, will you?" After sending Zhuge Liang away, everyone restarted the banquet, Gan Ning sat opposite Lu Su, frowned and said: "Cao Cao naturally wants to fight, but Liu Bei has no more than 30,000 soldiers now, and there are only a few generals, although fierce, but in front of a million army, it will not play a role, why should we ally with them?" ”

Lu Su suddenly had a black line on his face, I am an honest person, but why use it? On weekdays, I eat and drink for nothing in my house, and now I have to get worse, I'm really an honest person and a bully, right?

"Alright." Zhuo Ao waved his hand to stop Lu Su, who was about to be furious, and said: "Liu Bei's troops are not good, but there is a little benefit, he is in Jiangxia, strategically, he can be with Chaisang to form a corner, and he has been in Jingzhou for many years, although the troops are not much, but the influence in Jingzhou is not small, if this battle can be won, Liu Bei can quickly collect the original Jingzhou troops with his influence in Jingzhou, and in this regard, they have an absolute advantage." ”

"The lord is saying......" Lu Su, Gu Yong, and Lu Xun couldn't help but be stunned when they heard this, and looked at Zhuo Ao.

Zhuo Ao nodded: "This battle is won, Jingzhou is also Liu Bei's, it is difficult for us to snatch it from him." ”

"We fight, he picks up cheap, so what else is going on?" Guan Hai said angrily.

"You can't count accounts like that!" Zhuo Ao shook his head and said: "In any case, even if Liu Bei does not send troops from beginning to end, this battle will be fought the same, not for anyone, just because if we don't defeat Cao Cao's momentum, we will never have hope for the Central Plains." ”

"But if we win the war, we have nothing to gain, and this battle is too bad." Guan Hai said dissatisfied.

"Who said there is no benefit, there is not only one Jingzhou in the world, why do you always keep your eyes on Jingzhou? Although Jingzhou is good, but it is also a place of four wars, even if we hold it in our hands, we will inevitably be evil with Liu Bei and Cao Cao, and will be attacked by both sides, in this case, why not take a step back, give up Jingzhou, let Liu Bei and Cao Cao fight, and we will look elsewhere. Zhuo Ao laughed.

"The lord is saying......" Lu Xun, Lu Su, Gu Yong and others lit up and looked at Zhuo Ao.

"Yes, if this battle is won, Cao Cao will inevitably be greatly injured, and Liu Bei's foundation is unstable, even if he gets Jingzhou, but Jingzhou is the land of the four wars, he must have a stable rear to support Jingzhou, the land of the four wars, during this time, it is just our opportunity to make a move." Zhuo Ao smiled.

"For a long time in the future, we will maintain friendly relations with Liu Bei and join forces to resist Cao, until Cao Cao perishes or no longer poses a threat, this period will be a long time, so we will give up Jingzhou and take Xuzhou and Runan in our hands." Zhuo Ao looked at Guan Hai and said: "As for Jingzhou, let Liu Bei help us attract Cao Cao, the greater the attention he attracts, the more benefits will be for us, do you still have any questions?" ”

"The lord is wise, there is no problem with Guan Hai." Guan Hai sat down and said.

"My lord." Lu Lingqi hesitated, looked at Zhuo Ao and said: "Xuzhou assassin Chen Deng, he is quite scheming, and he has a lot of influence in Xuzhou, with this person, I am afraid that it will be difficult to capture Xuzhou." ”

"Don't worry, three years ago, I started to prepare." Zhuo Ao smiled: "This time Xuzhou, we will be able to fight." ”

Lu Lingqi's eyes lit up when she heard this, and she asked, "Please allow Lingqi to be a pioneer." ”

The reason why Lu Bu was defeated so badly back then was that the Chen family and his son had to pay a lot of responsibility, and the hatred in Lu Lingqi's heart for the Chen family and his son was by no means weaker than the hatred for Cao Cao.

"Don't worry, it will give you a chance to take revenge, but you have to learn to let go of hatred first, don't let hatred affect your reason, and raise troops in anger, but it is a taboo for generals!" Zhuo Ao looked at Lu Lingqi and said.

"Don't worry, Lingqi will not disappoint the lord." (To be continued.) )

PS: About the Three Kingdoms, it was ranked in the outline at the beginning, but now I find that if you enter the Three Kingdoms according to the original idea, in fact, in terms of the main line, it has little meaning, but I don't want to give up, so condense it, just write about Chibi, the length will not be too long, but it has nothing to do with the main line, and satisfy the resentment in my heart
