And Cao Ang's purpose is very simple, that is, to use Liu Cong to fight Liu Qi and kill people with a knife, so he is just waiting for the best time to appear.

"General, I'm worried that Liu Qi will jump off the wall in a hurry at that time, after all, after so many years, his ambition is getting bigger and bigger." The staff reminded.

Cao Ang shook his head and said, "Don't worry, Liu Qi doesn't dare to take risks, and he won't act rashly." ”

Although Liu Qi is greedy, he is not a fool, he doesn't dare to gamble with the life of the entire family, he doesn't have the courage.

"Okay, don't worry about these chores, and do what I say." Cao Ang waved his hand.

"Yes!" The staff was ordered to retreat.

"Liu Qi, Liu Qi, I hope you don't blame me, if you want to blame, blame you for being too greedy." Cao Ang's face was hideous, his eyes were red, as if he wanted to choose someone to eat.

Cao Ang had long seen that Liu Qi was unhappy, and he also wanted to get rid of the other party, but the latter was powerful.

Moreover, Liu Qi has most of Jingzhou's troops, and if he makes a rash move, he is likely to suffer heavy losses.

So Cao Ang chose to use Liu Cong's hand to achieve this goal, and as for whether the other party can really replace Liu Qi, Cao Ang is not worried at all.

Liu Qi's personality is irritable, easy to be impulsive, and his head is simple, how can he beat Liu Cong with Cao Ang's help.

As long as Cao Ang has a little planning, he can easily kill Liu Qi.

Inside the city of Xiangyang.

Liu Biao's recent situation has also been very bad, since Cao Ang besieged the city, his health has deteriorated, and he even fell ill.

The originally sturdy body gradually withered away, as if it had aged many years in an instant.

"Father, please ask a doctor for your child." Liu Biao's eldest daughter, Liu Yulian, said with concern.

Liu Biao waved his hand and said: "No need, the body of the father can still hold up, as long as Cao Ang's traitor is ambushed, it is worth it even if the father dies immediately." ”

Liu Yulian sighed and said, "Father, my daughter heard that Cao Ang has been about to move again recently, does he want to take advantage of your serious illness to send troops to attack Jingzhou again." ”

Liu Biao was silent for a moment and then said, "Yulian, do you have any suggestions?" ”

Liu Yulian said: "My daughter thinks that we should contact other princes to jointly defend against Cao Ang. ”

Liu Biao shook his head and said, "It's not appropriate." In today's world, the princes of all walks of life have cut off the king, where will they be willing to help us Jingzhou deal with Cao Ang? ”

"What's more, there is a Cao Cao standing behind Cao Ang."

Liu Yulian continued to persuade: "Father, this is the only way at present.

If Cao Ang is allowed to develop and grow, sooner or later our Jingzhou will also be affected, and then several other counties will also fall. ”

Liu Biao pondered for a while, raised his head, and said with a flickering eye: "Yulian, what you said is very reasonable, I will promise you for the time being." ”

"Thank you, father." Liu Yulian said happily.

Liu Biao smiled bitterly, he didn't want to do this, but there was no way, now that Sun Jian of Jiangdong is also eyeing Jingzhou, we are in a very dangerous situation now.

"Father, then the daughter will arrange it." Liu Yulian said happily.

"Hmm." Liu Biao nodded.

Soon, Liu Yulian walked out of Liu Biao's room, a cold smile appeared on her face, and she couldn't help but secretly say: "Liu Qi, your death is not far away." ”

Liu Yulian has always been at odds with this Liu Qi, and the two siblings usually compete against each other.

Although Liu Biao loves Liu Yulian, it does not mean that Liu Biao does not love Liu Qi.

It's just that Liu Yulian and Liu Cong are brothers and sisters, and they don't have a good impression of this Liu Qi.

Especially after Liu Qi married a concubine a few years ago, Liu Yulian was even more disgusted, so the latter wished that Liu Qi would die soon.

Liu Yulian found her mother, Cai, and after discussing for a while, the other party did not hesitate to agree to the next plan.

After Liu Yulian got the news, a trace of gloom appeared on her face, and she murmured: "Liu Qi, I will let you know what cruelty is." ”

So Liu Yulian decided to use the other party's weakness to achieve her own goals.

Cao Ang sat on the main seat and closed his eyes to recuperate, he had not been able to sleep well for the past few days.

"Report!" Outside the door came the shouts of the soldiers.

Cao Ang opened his eyes and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

"Tell the general, I just received a secret letter from the scouts." The soldier respectfully handed it to Cao Ang.

Cao Ang opened the secret letter, read it carefully, and frowned: "Yuan Shu's army actually made a move, it seems that Jingzhou asked him for help." ”

"Yuan Shu's guts are quite fat, and he would agree to help."

Cao Ang couldn't help but sneer: "Yuan Shu is indeed bold, but he is a smart person. ”

"Yuan Shu, his existence is a stumbling block for us."

"General, what are you going to do?" The soldier asked.

Cao Ang squinted his eyes and thought for a while: "Send cavalry to attack Yuan Shu's grain and grass troops and force Yuan Shu to stop rescuing Jingzhou." ”

"Yes!" The soldier clenched his fists and retreated.

Subsequently, Cao Ang wrote another letter and handed it to the guards at the door, asking him to send it to his father Cao Cao.

"Childe, we have to make some moves now, otherwise Liu Qi will think that we are afraid of him." Xiahou Yuan on the side reminded.

Cao Ang smiled while holding his wine glass and said, "General Xiahou is right, it's time to make some preparations. ”

Xiahou Yuan looked at Cao Ang in surprise, he also expected this situation, but Cao Ang actually reacted so quickly, no wonder he could be taken seriously by the lord.

Cao Ang looked at Xiahou Yuan's surprised appearance, laughed, patted Xiahou Yuan's shoulder and said, "General Xiahou doesn't need to be shocked, this son is just taking the opportunity to respond." ”

Xiahou Yuan smiled awkwardly: "It's the last general who is shallow. ”

"Hehe, General Xiahou is humble." Cao Ang laughed.

"Childe, what are we going to do next?" Xiahou Yuan changed the topic and asked.

"All we have to do is wait and see what happens." Cao Ang laughed.

Xiahou Yuan nodded, he agreed very much with Cao Ang's strategy, and he was already a little impatient at the thought of being able to occupy Jingzhou soon.

Xiahou Yuan suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly said: "Childe, Liu Bei seems to have taken action over there." ”

"Oh, what did Liu Bei do?" Cao Ang wondered.

Xiahou Yuan said: "He sent Zhuge Liang to collect the powerful family in the land of Sichuan and Shu, and it seems that he is going to carry out a great purge there. ”

Cao Ang frowned and said, "This Liu Bei's appetite is too big, it's just wishful thinking. ”

"Liu Bei must have his support for doing this, I don't know what Childe's plan is?" Xiahou Yuan asked.

Cao Ang took a sip of wine, with a sneer on the corner of his mouth: "Let's hold our troops for now, the more Liu Bei wants to interfere in our affairs, the more we can't let him get his wish." ”

Xiahou Yuan nodded in agreement, he looked at the unfathomable expression on Cao Ang's face, and couldn't see through the other party's inner thoughts for a while. (End of chapter)
