The fifteenth year of Jian'an and the sixteenth year of Jian'an are called the years of Wang Xing.

In the past two years, with Cao Cao's oath of Luoshui, the princes of the world's slightly stronger forces have become kings one after another.

Although it is not like Yan Guo, it openly claims that the emperor is opposed to the two dynasties of the Han Dynasty and the north and south, but it is also an existence that is out of the control of the Han Dynasty.

Only in Jingzhou, Liu Biao failed to claim the king, and was blocked by the four major families of Huang, Kuai, Cai, and Pang, and did not claim the title of king, and still served the Zhengshuo of the Han family.

Counting carefully, for example, the three major Han clan relatives and state pastors today, only Liu Biao has never been king.

Some people in the world praised him, but Liu Biao himself was aggrieved to the extreme, with sores on his back and bedridden.

This bed stay is a year.

Jingzhou affairs are in the hands of the four major families, and they are in charge of Pang Tong, Kuai Yue, Cai Mao, Huang Chengyan and others.

But in the past year, the internal disputes in Jingzhou have also been extremely serious, and the cause is the conquest of Jingzhou by Wu State.

In the thirteenth year of Jian'an, Yuan Shao and Cao Cao Liu Bei fought in the Central Plains, and then implicated Guanzhong, Yanguo, Bingzhou, and Sanhe.

When the war started in the north, the south naturally would not be idle, and Jiangdong went to conquer Jingzhou when the main forces of Cao Cao and Liu Bei could not go south.

The Jingzhou army was naturally invincible, although Huang Zhong had the courage of ten thousand people, and Kuai Yue Pang Tong was an amazing talent, but in the face of the united Jiangdong, Zhou Yu, Lu Su, Er Zhang, and Sun Ce, these fierce generals, Jingzhou was still invincible.

Jiangxia County, which had been lost at the beginning, was returned to Jiangdong again.

The essence of Jingzhou is in the three counties of Jiangxia, Nanjun and Nanyang County, and the four counties of Lingling County, Guiyang County, Changsha County and Wuling County in the south are mountainous and barbarian, and there are basically few taxes, grain and grass are also very little, only Changsha County is not bad.

Now Jingzhou Liu Biao can only retreat to Nanjun, and Zhao Hong, who is too defensive in Nanyang, joins forces to resist the attack of Wu.

Jingzhou, Nanjun.

In Liu Biao's mansion, there is a circle of people sitting around, all of whom are well-known figures in Jingzhou, basically the high-level of the entire Jingzhou.

Liu Biao lay on the sickbed, listening to these people arguing, and the core of the quarrel was how Jingzhou would resist Wu's attack now.

Until Cai Mao suddenly said, "The reason why Wu conquered Jingzhou is because Wu wants to occupy the upper reaches of the Yangtze River, and to prevent someone from attacking Wu directly along the Yangtze River from the upper reaches of the Han River."

That's why Wu will fight to the death with my Jingzhou, but what is the purpose of my Jingzhou fighting to the death here? ”

What is the Jingzhou Death War for?

Cai Mao's question directly smoked the brain circuits of most of the people here, since ancient times, after being invaded, it is natural to resist and fight back, this still needs to ask why?

But these people thought about it.

Suddenly realized that something was wrong, why are we desperately here with Wu Guo?

It seems that apart from casualties, there is no benefit at all!

Isn't this battle a mess?

Seeing this, Cai Mao smiled gloomily, recalled the news sent by Wu Guo, and said with confidence in her heart: "Everyone, let me say a word."

Wu is in the lower reaches of Jingzhou, and you must be very clear about the establishment of the Wu State.

In Wu Guozhong, Gongzi Chu is full of words, but under Gongzi Chu, the power is scattered, headed by counties and celebrities.

If my Jingzhou is surrendered to Gongzi Chu, the power of the southern county and the southern four counties of Jingzhou.

Can Nanjun Taishou and Jingzhou Thorn Shi enter the Regency Council?

I think so.

After entering the Regency Council, Gongzi Chu will care about our opinions, and the Jiangdong Shi clan cannot infringe on our interests at will, and it is difficult to keep the people of Jingzhou?

Do you think there is some truth to what I said? ”

Does it make sense?

It makes so much sense!

Jiangdong's system is a system that Luo Chu tailors for himself after trying to push the throne and let the country fail.

As long as he is still here, the power that this system can unite is no worse than that of any monarchy.

As for what to do without him, he gave some solutions, but mainly relying on the wisdom of future generations.

This system was very attractive to the Jingzhou scholars and could ensure their survival.

Pang Tong pondered for a moment and said: "The most important thing is that Wu Guo is anxious to subdue Jingzhou, and Gongzi Chu will definitely agree to our surrender." ”

Cai Mao nodded a little proudly and said, "Yes! ”

The window period for Wu to attack Jingzhou was so long.

If it hadn't succeeded in a short period of time and the northern princes came back to their senses, then the price that Wu would have to pay would not be half a star.

Liu Biao lay on the sickbed, listening to his courtiers discussing surrender in front of him.

Naturally, he was furious.

He dragged his seriously ill body and trembled and said, "You ......"

As soon as he opened his mouth, it was as low as a mosquito chirping, and even Mrs. Cai, who was beside him, didn't hear it clearly.

Mrs. Cai, who was quite charming and charming, hurriedly helped Liu Biao up and asked urgently, "Husband, what did you just say?" ”

The people who were discussing realized that they were in Liu's room, but everyone was not embarrassed, Cai Mao walked over directly, and said with a smile: "Lord, I was discussing the great cause of Jingzhou just now, what do you want to say?" ”

Liu Biao didn't expect Cai Mao to be so shameless, and in this case, he could still talk to himself with a smile, and said in a low voice: "Who made you surrender?"

This is Jingzhou in Honshu! ”

Cai Mao didn't expect Liu Biaogou to spit out such two stinky words in his mouth, and his face suddenly turned cold, he married Mrs. Cai to Liu Biao as a continuation, but Liu Biao was not grateful, and united with foreign scholars in a vain attempt to set up the Jingzhou scholars.

At that time, he was quite dissatisfied with Liu Biao, and now he was naturally even more unwilling to bear it, so he immediately said sharply: "Lord, if you don't surrender, do you want to die?"

The people of Jingzhou don't have the heart to fight, and they don't even know why they are fighting, why do they want to fight to the death with the army of Wu?

And don't forget, the lord, you still have a son, do you want to wait until after the defeat of Jingzhou, and be captured and killed by the nobles of Wu State?

When the country is ruined and the family is destroyed, will the lord be satisfied? ”

These unceremonious words, Liu Biao was panting heavily, his face was red and his neck was thick, and he was angry at first glance.

But I have to admit that Cai Mao is right.

The ideals of his life have failed, and in the end, he wants to leave a way back for his children and grandchildren.

Mrs. Cai looked at Liu Biao with anxiety on her face, she was not worried about Liu Biao's death.

After all, she and Liu Biao are political marriages, and it is strange that such a beautiful woman as she marries an old man like Liu Biao.

She was worried that Liu Biao would die too quickly and would not have time to pass on the position to her son.

When her son gets the position of Jingzhou pastor, she will find a high-ranking family to marry, whether it is the Cai family or herself, she will still be prosperous and rich in her life.

As for whether she can marry a high-ranking family again, she is not worried at all that even if Jingzhou is defeated, there are people who want to marry her.

Everyone gathered around, looking at Liu Biao, no one spoke for Liu Biao, at this time, no one could let Jingzhou fall into a catastrophe because of Liu Biao's willfulness.

Moreover, everyone thinks that this is also a good thing for Liu Biao, at least his son can survive.

If the battle is really defeated, the Jingzhou Shi clan will be able to change the court at the price, and Liu Biao's son will die.

"Get out! Get out! ”

After Liu Biao breathed a sigh of relief, he roared in a low voice, everyone was stunned when they heard this, most of them looked a little unsightly, and some were quite dissatisfied with Liu Biao and threw their hands away.

Mrs. Cai still wanted to hold Liu Biao, but Liu Biao threw it away with all her strength, and said weakly: "Slut, you get out too!" ”

Mrs. Cai's face changed greatly when she heard this, she never expected Liu Biao to dare to scold herself, so she immediately turned into a shrew, and after a meal, she left here angrily.

Liu Biao waited until Mrs. Cai left, and he was the only one left in the empty room, and he suddenly felt relieved.

All gone.

It's all gone.

A fierce color flashed in Liu Biao's eyes, and his body seemed to have regained some of the momentum of riding alone in Jingzhou in the past.

"Think back then, in the prime of life, riding alone in Jingzhou, what a heroic demeanor?

But I never thought that this was a trapped place, and I was trapped here for the rest of my life.

I'm about to die, what should I do? ”

The history books written by Luo like to give people a final conclusion, especially like to record the words before death, believing that the words of people who are about to die are credible.

Liu Biao stretched out his hand and took out a piece of white cloth, slowly writing on it with blood, using up all the strength of his body, this was the last thought of his life.

Mrs. Cai walked out to complain to Cai Mao quite dissatisfied, Pang Tong felt that something was wrong when she listened, what did Liu Biao want to do inside?

Everyone rushed in to take a look, only to see that Liu Biao was already motionless, and suddenly their eyes were dark, knowing that Liu Biao was dead, and he was holding a white juan tightly in his hand, which seemed to have handwriting on it, and hurriedly unfolded it to take a look, and wrote a few blood-colored handwriting - "Liu Biao died as a Hanchen and will never surrender." ”

Shameless!

Everyone never expected that Liu Biaoqian would play this hand for them, which is really shameless.

Kuai Yue directly snatched Bai Juan and threw it into the brazier, and said hatefully: "We are discussing for the survival of his descendants, but he is pretending to be a loyal minister of the Han Dynasty like this."

When he was in alliance with Yuan Shao, he didn't mention the Han Dynasty, and Cao Cao didn't mention the Han when he issued the edict, but now he claims to be a Han minister and will never surrender.

He was so sure that I would surrender later, and he would surrender with his son, so he was so fearless. ”

Kuai Yue gritted his teeth when he said this, he still had feelings for Liu Biao after serving Liu Biao for many years, but he didn't expect Liu Biao to play such a hand in the end.

Cai Mao stopped Kuai Yue from continuing, and said: "The top priority now is to support Liu Cong to succeed to the throne, and then surrender to Gongzi Chu, and the flames of war can no longer be burned to Nanjun." ”

In the past, Qingji and Sun Wu could not occupy the land of Jingchu, but now they have directly surrendered to the state of Wu, which is really feng shui in turn, and there is impermanence in the world.
