"Huddle for warmth? Meaning to form an alliance? That's good."

"That's what Liu Taishou means, they can communicate with each other, and they can help each other when they encounter enemies..."

When Liu Ye was enumerating the benefits, Long Xiang immediately interrupted him, the four words "communicate with each other" are too sensitive, he will not agree, and he can't agree.

"Stop, I take the liberty of asking, how can Liu Taishou communicate with me? Or do you still want to give up on Zijing?"

"Long Sima, Hefei hangs alone in the north of the Lujiang River, can Zheng Bao block Cao Cao?

The new Yangzhou assassin history has reached Shouchun, and it is a matter of time before the northern army goes south, since he knows that Hefei will not be able to hold it sooner or later, why should the general do useless work?

It is better to move the family and people south to Shu County, Juchao and other places, and use the garrison of Anhui County as horns."

"Huh? Haha..."

Long Xiang couldn't stop laughing after hearing this, and then lowered his head and asked Liu Ye after a while: "I thought that Liu Xun's target was only Zijing, but I didn't expect him to want to take Hefei incorporated?" Who gave him courage? Liang Jingru?"

"Liang Jingru? Who is it?"

Liu Ye looked at Lu Su in confusion.

Lu Su spread his hands, saying that he didn't know either, Long Xiang often said some strange things, and he was used to it.

Long Xiang said coldly: "Don't care who Liang Jingru is, if you want to be like Zheng Bao, you can get the real knife and real gun yourself, just with Mr.'s three-inch tongue, it won't work with me."

"The two families are of the same origin, so why attack and kill themselves?" Liu Ye's eyes narrowed.

Long Xiang pointed at Lu Su and said righteously, "You'd better ask Zijing, is everything easy in Hefei? The people here have been working all year long to barely eat enough, and the brothers can settle down a little, how can Liu Xun come and pick my peaches? Don't even think about it!"

"This..."

Liu Ye still wanted to argue, but Lu Su took over: "Ziyang, Liu Zitai is the Taishou of Lujiang, but Hefei belongs to Jiujiang County, and his hand has indeed stretched out the boundary."

"Go back and tell Liu Xun to let him take care of his own affairs, don't think about it all day long, if he really wants to fight, I will accompany him with both hands."

Long Xiang turned his unfolded hands into fists, and his knuckles made a crunching sound.

"Separation is two losses, and cooperation is two benefits, why should the general say death? The terms are negotiable..."

Seeing that Long Xiang was so excited, Liu Ye turned to Lu Su and glanced at him, as if to say that you can help me persuade him.

Isn't diplomacy all about pulling each other and finally finding a balance? Wouldn't such a refusal offend Liu Xun?

Long Xiang noticed Liu Ye's small movements, and hurriedly stopped him and said: "I am different from Liu Xundao, and Zijing should not make up his mind, he promised me to stay in Hefei for three years, Mr. Don't let him break his promise, isn't the gentleman based on faith?"

After hearing this, Liu Ye spread his hands, sat down helplessly, then poured himself wine, and then raised his head and drank it all, and said with emotion: "Long Sima is too young, and there is no way out in front of him, so he will harm himself and delay Zijing..."

Long Xiang asked meaningfully, "So Mr. thinks there is a way out by following Liu Xun?"

"In the long run, Liu Zitai is not as good as Yuan Shao and Cao Cao, but in the current Jianghuai land, Lujiang is a good place to go."

Liu Ye sat upright and muttered to himself.

Long Xiang sneered: "Since Liu Xun is not as good as Cao Cao, then why did you persuade me to go to Lujiang? Can't I vote for Cao Cao directly? If you let Zijing go with you, won't you fool your friends?"

"You have a grudge against Cao Cao for killing your father, are you really willing to go to the enemy?"

Liu Ye glanced at Lu Su, as if to say prick up your ears and listen, this is the Long Xiang you trust? I'll help you find out what he really thinks.

Long Xiang did not answer directly, but asked rhetorically: "Before answering Mr.'s question, please answer me a question first, if Liu Xun is defeated in the future and all the cities of Lujiang are lost, Mr. is a member of the Han family, will you flee with him?"

"What's wrong with a gentleman not standing under a dangerous wall?"

"I'll be more specific, if Sun Ce defeats Liu Xun, he can only lead his troops to join Cao Cao

, Mr. will also go to Xu Du?"

"Sun Ce? How can it be? Lujiang has a lot of troops."

"Sir, don't get excited, I'm just assuming, you just need to tell me, will you go to Cao Cao?"

Liu Ye didn't know what Long Xiang meant, so he looked at Lu Su with his beard, hoping to get a hint of reminder, but the other party spread his hands and said that he didn't know.

"Ahem... The Son of Heaven is in Xu... I naturally ..."

"It seems that Mr. already has an answer, and my answer is also very clear, I'd rather die than go to Cao Thief, otherwise my father won't be able to turn a blind eye."

Liu Ye nodded slightly, and then asked, "Long Sima and Cao Cao don't share the same sky, but now they refuse Liu Taishou's kindness, don't they sit in Hefei and wait for death?" You didn't delay Zijing like this? Three years is not a short time."

"To tell me the truth, sir, the reason why Zijing stayed for three years was because he had a gambling contract with me, and I expected that Sun Ce would die within three years, and he would stay in Hefei to wait for the result." Long Xiang smiled leisurely as he spoke.

Liu Ye was quite shocked, and he swallowed his saliva to confirm, "Sun Ce? Three years?"

Long Xiang smiled and raised two fingers: "It's only been two years now..."

"Sun Ce is young, and he has no evil diseases on his body, this gambling contract is real..."

Liu Ye shook his head when he heard it, he looked at Lu Su when he spoke, and said in his heart, Why are you messing around with a child? It's ridiculous.

Seeing this, Long Xiang suddenly had an idea, smiled and asked, "Do you want Mr. Ziyang to join?" If Sun Ce doesn't die within two years, I will take the people of Hefei to vote for Liu Xun."

"What if Sun Ce is really dead? What does Long Sima want?" Liu Ye looked at Long Xiang vigilantly.

Long Xiang smiled and said, "Haha, I only need a promise from Mr."

"What promise?" Liu Ye frowned.

Long Xiang glanced at Lu Su first, then turned to look out the door, and turned his back to the two: "I hope that Mr. is worthy of his ancestors and does not go to Xudu to seek refuge in Cao Cao."

As soon as these words came out, not to mention that Liu Ye was in a fog when he heard it, Lu Su didn't understand it, so he hurriedly asked, "Yunqi? What do you mean by that?"

Long Xiang turned around and explained, "Although the Son of Heaven is here, but the decrees are all out of the Sikong Mansion, what is the difference between Cao Cao and the thief who steals the country? If you go to Xu Du, can you still be loyal to him? The descendants of the Liu family serve the Han thieves, are they worthy of their ancestors?"

"Ahh

Lu Su was stunned when he heard this, and said in his heart that Long Xiang could really get in touch.

Liu Ye was silent when he heard this, because at this time, the officials of Xu Du and the Han clan were not in the minority, according to what Long Xiang meant just now, they were all sorry for their ancestors?

Seeing Liu Ye bowing his head and pondering, Long Xiang continued to add: "Of course, it doesn't matter if Mr. doesn't accompany the gamble, you can vote for Cao Cao in the future, but after all, you have the identity of a Han clan relative, the more capable you are, the more you will be jealous of Cao Cao, why bother so much? Why don't you make a bet with me?". br>

Liu Ye was noncommittal: "Is this the general's reply to Liu Taishou?"

"It's okay to understand it this way, I don't have a good impression of Liu Xun, but Mr. is Zijing's friend, and I love the house and Wu."

Long Xiang looked at Liu Ye and smiled, and said in his heart that you were on guard when you arrived at Cao Ying anyway, and you just happened to get rid of a counselor for Cao Cao.

As long as Liu Ye does not go to Xudu with Liu Xun, he should not look down on Sun Ce and go to Jingzhou to vote for Liu Biao, which will also be in Liu Bei's pocket in the future.
