Volume 2 The Rise of Jingzhou Chapter 525 - Liu Zhang, who wants to fight
Zhang Song didn't think about it the moment he knew that he was thrown out.
Obviously, he did not hesitate to travel a long way, and he came thousands of miles to dedicate the huge Yizhou to Cao... cough cough ....
Zhang Song himself was not very willing to come, but at the moment when the Jingzhou War began, the news rushed towards Nayizhou and even Hanzhong endlessly like snowflakes.
As if they were afraid that they would not know about this big war.
And under the bombardment of these news, this Yizhou has also been successfully divided into two... Three factions.
Among them, a very small number of people wanted to rescue Liu Xuande in Jingzhou, so as to form an alliance with Liu Xuande, and then take advantage of the situation to ask for a new identity as a clan relative of the Han family.
thus joining the camp of the Han court.
Then work together to resist Cao Mengde!
What about the idea... Liu Zhang didn't even want to know the reason, so he let them get out.
And the kind that can't roll a little slower.
As for the other two plans, Liu Zhang was entangled for a long time.
One of them is to wait!
The land of Yizhou is a natural risk! It's a world-famous natural hazard!
Although there is no such thing as "Shu Road is difficult, it is difficult to go to the blue sky".
But the difficulty of this Shu Road is also well-known in the world.
It is because of this natural danger that it is not very easy for them to send troops, but it is very easy to protect themselves.
Therefore, a considerable number of people who are still loyal to Liu Zhang have put forward suggestions.
No matter what Jingzhou has become, it has nothing to do with us!
We only need to protect our own one-third of an acre, and then protect our own territory, so the rest of the things will naturally be guided by God.
As for the final result .... Anyway, everyone can see that this Liu Zhang does not have the ability to dominate the world.
Whether he fought or surrendered in the end had nothing to do with this big war.
Before you really make a decision, take a step to stabilize the situation and get it right, and that's the best outcome.
Save your strength and don't do anything superfluous!
Although these words are not very good for Liu Zhang, they are not unacceptable.
But in addition to these words, in fact, there is another set of rhetoric that is also very important.
That is to assist Cao Mengde in attacking Liu Xuande!
And that's the reason.... It's also not good for Liu Zhang!
"The land of Xichuan is just a corner of the Han Dynasty, although there are natural dangers, but there is no ability to conquer the world, and there is no way for the envoy to protect himself.
In the future, when the army of Cao Gong is approaching the city, if we surrender again, it is inevitable that people will fall ill.
Moreover, Cao Gong's law is strict, and there was once a military law.
After the siege is the one who descends, slaughter!
Therefore, if we want to surrender to Cao Gong, then we must seize this time, so that Cao Gong can look at it differently.
If you wait, the final result may not be very good.
Therefore, I might as well take this opportunity to send troops to Jingzhou, if I can get the favor of Cao Gong, I am afraid that it will also soar in the future.
So that you will really rest easy in the future.
Of course, even if it won't... If we can get Jingzhou, we can also add a few more capital in the future! β
When these words fell into Liu Zhang's ears, although he was already regarded by them as a pedal that was bound to fail.
But Liu Zhang also had to admit that these two suggestions.... Be much more reliable.
Although Liu Zhang also has a lot of problems, and his wrist over the years can be regarded as ... It's not high, but it's not low.
But he has one of the greatest strengths, and that is that he is very sensible.
This will not be reflected at all when he was in charge of Xichuan, but in the fact that he never thought of competing for world domination and having that kind of unrealistic dream....
Under the repeated admonitions of the people of Xichuan, Liu Zhang did not decide whether to send troops or not, but he decided.
You must take the first step to have a good relationship with that Cao Gong, at least you have to take a look at that Cao Gong's tone.
Officially, because of this, this pine appeared here.
Merely.... Before he could see Cao Mengde express his meaning, he was completely scolded by Cao Mengde in two or three sentences, and he burst out.
With this word, the humiliation that Cao Mengde gave him suddenly filled his chest with anger.
And just when Zhang Song was walking in the direction of Yizhou with righteous indignation, in the Cao army camp on the other side, Cheng Yu also looked at Cao Mengde, who was becoming more and more arrogant, with a tangled face.
"Cao Gong, although that Zhang Song has an ugly appearance, he doesn't know how to be polite.
But after all, he is an envoy from Xichuan, and if I want to capture Xichuan in the future, I will have to deal with them.
Why is it that today, Cao Gong is so indifferent to Xichuan's envoys? β
After Cheng Yu finished speaking, he couldn't help sighing, and added to Cao Mengde a little helplessly.
"The old man has also heard of Zhang Song's reputation, and it seems that he is also quite famous in Xichuan..."
"What can he do if he has talent or not, the people of Xichuan are timid and cowardly, and they dare not compete with the world!
As long as we wait for a big victory over Liu Xuande, we will annex Jingzhou and swallow the land of Jiangdong.
Almost all of the world has fallen into our hands.
When that time comes, won't the little Xichuan be at your fingertips? β
Cao Mengde looked at Cheng Yu's face at this time and chuckled directly, interrupting his words.
Even in his words, he was still full of lightheartedness, and there was no problem at all because of the decision he had just made.
Even, it directly made Cheng Yu relax, this loose... Just go, he didn't care about the entire Xichuan land!
Cheng Yu and the others couldn't help frowning when they saw this, and sighed silently in their hearts.
knew that this was Zhang Song's bad luck, and he was arrogant when he shouldn't have been arrogant.
In fact, he already had some intention of selling Yizhou in and out of his words.
But if this was when Cao Mengde was still trapped in Yanzhou, even if he couldn't reach the land of Xichuan, he would be polite to this pine.
Make sure that this dark line must be there.
If he dominates the Central Plains, he will also give three points to Zhang Song, for the sake of the overall situation in the future.
But this was when Cao Mengde was most proud.
At this time, Cao Mengde was about to lose his words to his former confidant, how could he still accept the arrogance of others?
The most important thing is that in Cao Mengde's eyes, this Yizhou is just a place that can be taken by them at any time.
How can it be used as a trading item by someone else?
Therefore, this Zhang Song wants to betray Yizhou, and Cao Mengde... It's really unlikely.
Even Zhang Song was looked down upon.
Cheng Yu and the others closed their mouths, while Yang Xiu, another talented man who was accompanying the army on the side, frowned.
At this time, Yang Xiu had just come into contact with Cao Cao and didn't know so much about Cao Cao, so he couldn't help but open his mouth and wanted to say something...
"That pine..."
"This is a trickster who asks for benefits, so what is the use of keeping it?"
After Cao Mengde finished saying this, although Yang Xiu's mouth was still slightly open, he immediately chose to close it.
Until the end, he didn't say anything more.
It's just this sentence with a slightly heavy tone, then Yang Xiu has already understood the subconscious meaning of Cao Mengde's words, this Xichuan must be won, but this Xichuan family is not reusable.
Therefore, Cao Mengde will not have anything to do with Zhang Song, today... It can be regarded as the end of Zhang Song's idea.
As for whether this will make Xichuan throw himself to Liu Xuande?
Or did they surrender to the court of Chang'an?
Yang Xiu is not worried about this, because he knows very well the character of the people of Xichuan, they only care about who is the winner and don't care about anything else...
In fact, this is the same in Xichuan and Xuzhou.
If Yang Xiu's memory was not wrong, when facing Xuzhou back then, this Xun Yu also made the same persuasion.
At the end of the Battle of Yanzhou that year, LΓΌ Bu fled to Xuzhou, and Cao Mengde also wanted to conquer Xuzhou immediately after recuperating and recovering a little bit of vitality.
For nothing else, his father died in Xuzhou, and Lu Bu almost let himself die in Yanzhou.
This life-and-death feud is now all in Xuzhou, plus Xuzhou is rich and the land is fertile, if he doesn't go, it will be unreasonable.
So Cao Mengde wanted to conquer Xuzhou at the beginning.
But before he could make a move, Xun Yu had already interrupted him.
And gave him a suggestion to fight Yuzhou first... Xuzhou should be self-defeating!
After thinking of this, Yang Xiu also completely understood Cao Mengde's thoughts, and knew why Cao Mengde had such an attitude towards Xichuan.....
After Cao Mengde solved all this here, Zhang Song on the other side also left the big camp that he would never come back to in his life.
"You are waiting to bully me, there is no one in Xichuan... You really think that no one cares about me in Xichuan! β
The angry Zhang Song seemed to have forgotten the hunger in his belly, and he couldn't help muttering to himself while moving forward.
Even before he knew it, he didn't realize that he had started walking for a long time.
And when he stopped again, he found that he didn't even know where he had gone.
"Sss This... It shouldn't be..."
"Zhang... Lost? β
"Gurgling...."At this time, Zhang Song's stomach screamed again, and Zhang Song really felt a thick sadness at this moment.
"Pity me, Zhang Ziqiao, who is famous in Xichuan, has suffered such a great humiliation in this little Nanyang..."Zhang Song, who had lost his strength, fell directly under a big tree, leaning against the trunk with a wry smile on his face.
Just as he wrapped the big coat and was about to fall asleep, a voice sounded from the dense forest behind him....
