Chapter 141: Dividing the Territory

When Sima Gong wrote the "Historical Records", he set up biographies for Jing Ke, Nie Zheng, Zhuan Zhu, and Yu Rang, which was the romanticism in the bones of the literati, but he did not really respect them.

The literati of the Maison appreciated the sacrifice of these Assassins, but this did not mean that they themselves were willing to be considered Assassins.

A mere puppet dares to compare with a merry family?!

Therefore, Zhang Fei's actions, the angry Zhou Yu called a liver pain, and the wound under the ribs was a little faintly painful.

Zhou Yu desperately comforted himself in his heart, don't be angry, anger is not good for your health, we have to endure it for the sake of the overall situation. I finally swallowed this breath.

Zhang Fei didn't touch any suspicious weapons, so he spread out the map in front of Liu Bei.

Zhou Yu adjusted his mentality and said to Liu Bei, "In the past, Yu had an appointment with Xuande Gong in advance, and now Nanjun has been ordered, Yu is also ordered by the lord to hand over Wulin, Hanyang and other places to Xuande Gong, and I also hope that Xuande Gong will evacuate the mouth of the oil river as soon as possible and return my Jiangdong." ”

Liu Bei lowered his head and looked at the map carefully, without saying a word.

At this time, Liu Bei is not suitable to speak, if he agrees, this matter will be decided, if he opposes it, arguing with Zhou Yu, it will lose his identity as the lord of his side.

At this time, Liu Bei's subordinates stood up and argued with Zhou Yu.

Zhang Xi looked at Zhang Fei, and then looked at Wei Yande, I have to come to this matter.

coughed at the moment, took a half step forward, and said, "Gongjin's words are wrong. In the past, outside Gangneung City, Gongjin agreed with my lord that my lord would send General Guan to the north of the road, and after capturing Nanjun, he would divide the land south of my lord Gangneung, but now why are there only two places in Hanyang and Wulin?! Moreover, the mouth of the oil river is located in the south of the Yangtze River, which is the south of Nanjun, and it should belong to my lord, so how can Gongjin return it?! ”

Zhou Yu's eyes widened suddenly, and he couldn't wait to swallow Zhang Xi alive.

I was talking about the Southeast, not the whole South. This is no longer a concept of stealing, right?

"Yuan Chang is rude, Yu and Liu Yuzhou agreed, only the southeast of Nanjun, when will it talk about the south of Jiangling?!" Zhou Yu sprayed at Zhang Xi, "In the land of Nanjun, my Jiangdong soldiers are fighting hard, how can they be light?!" ”

Gong Jin's words were also rude. If you Jiangdong contributes alone, will I not fight?! The corners of Zhang Xi's mouth twitched, squinted at Zhou Yu, and said, "In the decisive battle of Jiangling, the three generals braved the rain of arrows and defeated Cao Ren, and Xi also led troops to rescue Gong Jin. ”

"If there is no siege by my Jiangdong army, the siege is very urgent, how can I come to the decisive battle of Jiangling?!"

"Hehe, if it weren't for General Guan's Absolute North Dao, then Cao Ren would be afraid that this would be the fashion to sit in this Jiangling City!"

"In the past, Cao's army went south, and Xuande Gong was in danger, but it was my Jiangdong who helped Cao Cao in Chibi. If it weren't for us, would the Xuande Public Security be able to sit here?! ”

"Hey, if it weren't for our army's supply of grain, blocking the middle road of the Cao army, the second army of the north road, and borrowing the troops from Rulukou, where would the red cliff break Cao?!"

"Zhang Yuanchang, why did you make such brazen words?!"

"Zhou Gongjin, Ling"

"Enough is enough!!"

Zhang Xi and Zhou Yu were still arguing, Liu Bei really couldn't listen to it anymore, and scolded loudly, interrupting the confrontation between the two.

"Sun and Liu form an alliance, cooperation will benefit both sides, and division will cause two harms, and this matter should be good for General Sun." Liu Bei had a calm face and said to Zhang Xi, "The two generals are arguing about this matter, but it is a big deal. Yuan Chang, don't retreat yet! ”

Under Liu Bei's reprimand, Zhang Xi, who was a subordinate, naturally received the order and hurriedly saluted and retreated.

Zhou Yu also has Liu Bei a little face, after all, Liu Bei is a gentleman.

And Liu Bei also mentioned it just now, the Sun-Liu alliance was signed by Liu Bei and Sun Quan, and it is a national-level strategy, and Zhou Yu, as a courtier, should not be questioned and dissatisfied.

Therefore, under Liu Bei's scolding, Zhou Yu was temporarily suppressed.

After that, Liu Bei smiled and saluted Zhou Yu, saying that he was not strict in disciplining his subordinates, so that Zhou Yu would not be able to keep a straight face in front of Liu Bei.

The atmosphere between the two sides finally eased temporarily.

However, the issue of site allocation has not been resolved.

Of course, Liu Bei wanted Wulin and Hanyang, but he didn't want to give up on Youjiangkou

The geographical location of this place in Youjiangkou is too crucial, it is just opposite Gangneung City, and the two places are separated by a Yangtze River.

Liu Bei has the mouth of the oil river, he can peek at Jiangling City at any time, and obviously, Zhou Yu also does not want Liu Bei's army to be stationed on the other side of the river, so he must have taken the mouth of the oil river.

Liu Bei and Zhou Yu both knew the importance of the Youjiang Estuary, so Liu Bei proposed, "Although it was agreed with the Governor in the past to send Yun Chang to the North Road, after the Governor captured the Southern County, it was only a matter of time to accommodate the southeastern counties of Beinan County. ”

Liu Bei means this, that is, it was agreed at the beginning, Guan Yu Juebei Dao, you give me the southeastern counties, but then didn't I send another 5,000 people to help in the war, and then give an oil river mouth It is reasonable to say that I occupy all of them, how can I spit it out? !

It's just that Liu Bei said this, and he was a little weak-hearted.

Youjiangkou is not a mere place, he is too important, more important than 5,000 people.

Thinking about it in reverse, it's like him Liu Bei running to Sun Quan's bedroom to make a bunk. It is estimated that Sun Quan will not be able to close his eyes all night.

But contrary to Liu Bei's expectations, Zhou Yu did not refuse directly, but said, "In the matter of the southeastern counties of Nanjun, Yu and Xuande Gong had a word in advance, and they also reported to the lord for approval, so it can be delivered." In the matter of the mouth of the oil river, Yu did not follow the order and did not dare to call the shots. If the Duke of Xuande wants to get the mouth of the oil river, please go to Chaisang and consult with my lord in person. ”

Say that? That's right.

Zhou Yu is just a courtier, although Sun Quan appointed him to supervise Nanjun, but he Zhou Yu really has no right to decide this kind of land cutting.

Sun Quan agreed to the good things he said before, so Zhou Yu can do it.

But now that Liu Bei has to go to the mouth of the oil river, Zhou Yu can't refute Liu Bei's face, so he can only let Liu Bei go to Sun Quan, and the two lords discuss it themselves, no matter what the result, he, the courtier, just do it.

Liu Bei didn't know what to say, and then he said something else, nothing more than some commercial praise or something, and finally Zhou Yu personally sent Liu Bei out of the city and back to the camp to rest.

Liu Bei will not leave for the time being, but he also wants to show his presence in Jiangling City, on the one hand, to attract a little people's hearts, and on the other hand, to express the harmony of the current Sun-Liu Alliance. Politically relevant.

However, regarding Zhou Yu's proposal to go to Chaisang to meet Sun Quan, Liu Bei discussed it with Zhang Xi as soon as he returned to the camp.

"Yuan Chang, in your opinion, how credible is Gongjin's words this week?!" Liu Bei asked.

Seriously, Liu Bei couldn't believe that Zhou Yu gave up so easily.

You must know that at the beginning, Zhou Yu and Zhang Xi were arguing, and they were really angry.

But as soon as Liu Bei spoke, Zhou Yu's attitude immediately became noncommittal, and he specifically pointed out that as long as he went to Chaisang to discuss with Sun Quan, he would accept any result. Then what did this guy quarrel with Zhang Xi before?!

Zhang Xi didn't really understand what Zhou Yu was doing.

If he said so early in the morning, would Zhang Xi stand up and quarrel with Zhou Yu.

But

"Lord, Xi thinks that Gongjin's words are also reasonable, but . Don't believe it! Zhang Xi thought for a while before he said.

Liu Bei didn't understand and asked, "What do you mean by this?!" ”

Zhang Xi frowned slightly and said, "Zhou Gongjin has no right to dispose of the mouth of the oil river, this is a fact. suggested that the lord go to Chaisang, and this matter may be fraudulent. ”

"How so?!" Liu Bei asked again.

This Zhang Xi can't answer, but he has this feeling, Zhou Yu, when did he speak so well? !

Therefore, Zhang Xi thought for a while, made up a few reasons, and said, "Lord, Zhou Gongjin is a person who is unfathomable, but now he compromises easily, there must be a reason, one of them." The lord's body is ten thousand gold, and the thoughts of the generals in Jingnan are all tied to the lord, and the lord should act cautiously and not take risks lightly, and this is the second. With these two things, the lord could not easily cross the river to Chaisang, but only sent a man of argument to Jiangdong to discuss the matter of the mouth of the oil river. ”

After hearing this, Liu Bei smiled and said, "This is all speculation." I have always acted with integrity, treated others, and always treated with kindness. Now that the two families have formed an alliance, how could Jiangdong do such a villain's thing, but the chief is too worried. ”

Belch. There were too many slots in these words, but Zhang Xi didn't dare to spit it out.

Will Jiangdong do such a villain act as betraying the alliance, let's not talk about him first, just talk about our lord Liu Bei. Hawkers, forget it, it has been done in general, and you can't deny everything because of some small flaws.

"This matter needs to be cautious. The lord may wish to repair a letter to Brother Yuan and the military advisor first, and see what Brother Yuan and the military advisor mean?! Zhang Xi still persuaded Liu Bei.

Liu Bei accepted this suggestion, and immediately wrote to Zhuge Liang and Xu Shu, waiting for their suggestions before deciding whether to go to Chaisang in person.

Liu Bei was busy writing letters, and Zhou Yu was also busy writing letters at this time, he was writing to Sun Quan.

In the letter, Zhou Yu suggested that Sun Quan find a reason to detain Liu Bei after seeing Liu Bei, and use Liu Bei's safety as a threat to force Guan Zhang and others to listen to his orders and fight for him.

In this way, Jiangdong will remove a major disaster, and Jingzhou can also be completely captured in one fell swoop.

Then he sent his henchmen to Koto to deliver the message in person.

At this time, Zhou Yu had already made up his mind to sweep away Liu Bei's threat.
