Chapter Thirty-Seven: Outstanding Talents, Achievements Cover a Country
In the morning light, the huge gates were closed, like dormant beasts, and there were already gatekeepers standing on both sides.
It was so early in the morning that the streets were silent.
But overnight, an official announcement was posted everywhere in the entire Gangneung City, and this announcement instantly stirred up a thousand waves.
Countless people went out when they heard the news, standing at the announcement one by one, and some literate people were reciting the contents of the announcement aloud.
Such a big deal.
Jiangdong envoy Zhuge Jin naturally got the news for the first time, and also came outside the crowd and looked at it.
Zhuge Ke had already squeezed into the first row, and he looked at the announcement seriously.
A man dressed as a scribe recited for everyone, "The Han and the thief are not separated, and the royal industry is not partial...... The Sun-Liu Alliance was originally working together to fight against the Cao thief, but recently due to the ownership of Jingzhou, the Sun-Liu Alliance has had repeated frictions, and in order to avoid the gap in the alliance, the two sides negotiated and reached an agreement. ”
“…… General Hanzuo, Yicheng Pavilion Marquis, Lingyu Prefecture Mu, Imperial Uncle Liu Bei; Hanshou Pavilion Marquis, General Dangkou, Xiangyang Taishou Guan Yu; The lord of Jiangdong, the Marquis of Wu, the general of the Che cavalry, and the shepherd of Xuzhou were all committed to the revival of the Han Dynasty. ”
"It is hereby agreed that for a period of one year, if the lord of Dongwu can take a county of Hefei in the north, Guan Yu, the general of Dangkou, should fulfill the covenant of 'Xiangshui as the boundary', and from then on Jiangxia, Guiyang, and Changsha will return to Jiangdong, if the period of one year, the lord of Dongwu can not take Hefei, and the covenant of Xiangshui as the boundary will be abolished on the spot, and after that, Jingzhou and Dongwu have nothing to do! The people of Jingzhou are hereby announced. ”
After reading this large paragraph, a common man patted his head, a little confused by the second monk.
"Jiangxia, Guiyang, and Changsha, why did they come back and let go, what does this mean?"
An old man next to him answered and answered: "This is a long story, in the thirteenth year of Jian'an, the battle of Chibi of the Sun-Liu Alliance severely damaged Cao Cao, and so far the seven counties of Jingzhou have been divided by Uncle Liu, Wu Hou and Cao Thief. ”
"Cao Thief occupies the largest Nanyang County in the north of Jingzhou and Jiangxia County north of the Yangtze River, Wu Hou gets Jiangxia County and most of the Nanjun south of the Yangtze River, and Uncle Liu Huang gets the Nanjun south of the Yangtze River, as well as the four counties of Changsha, Lingling, Guiyang, and Wuling in the south of Jingzhou."
Later, after the battle of Nanjun, Cao Thief's soldiers and horses retreated to Xiang and Fan, and Zhou Yu, the governor of Jiangdong, led Nanjun Taishou and divided the southern part of Nanjun to Uncle Liu Huang. Uncle Liu Huang stationed troops for public security, and later the governor of Zhou died of illness, and Uncle Liu Huang borrowed Jingzhou from Wu Hou. ”
"Wu Hou was reluctant to borrow it, but with the support of Lu Su, the new governor of Jiangdong, he still lent Nanjun to Uncle Liu Huang, so far... Uncle Liu Huang had a complete southern county, and he resisted Cao Cao in the north, so he captured Yizhou as the base! ”
Speaking of this, the old man paused, stroked his beard, and continued: "Since Uncle Liu Huang entered Shu, it has been rumored that Jiangdong sent envoys to Bashu to recover the land of Jingzhou that was lent out. That's it! ”
Don't blame the old man for telling the story meticulously.
Liu Bei's borrowing of Jingzhou has long been spread in Jingzhou and Jiangdong, and it is not difficult for people with a heart to inquire about it.
However, there are not many people who know as well as this old man.
It was Zhuge Jin, he looked at the notice, and listened to the old man's story, he felt that he had fallen into an indescribable bewilderment.
What's the situation?
What's going on?
After he came to Jiangling, he met Guan Yu, and was almost ordered to evict guests by Guan Yu's sharp words.
Have you talked about it?
Have you made any contracts?
Zhuge Jin was at a loss.
But on this notice...
What do you mean by "mutual counsel"? What does it mean to "make an agreement"?
I haven't talked about it, and I have reached a hammer agreement?
Subconsciously, Zhuge Jin felt that this announcement was very fake, from the use of words to the formation of sentences, to the content... It's all fake, outrageously fake!
However, the seal at the bottom of the announcement is extremely clear.
- General Dangkou's seal.
- Hou Yin of Hanshou Pavilion.
- Guan Gongyin.
It can be said that whether it is Liu Bei's seal, the Son of Heaven's seal, or Guan Jiajun's recognition, Guan Yu's three seals are quite a lot.
In other words, this notice is not a child's mess around, it's true, it's real!
There was a lot of talk around them.
A scribe shook his head, "Doesn't this mean that for a year, it depends on whether Jiangdong can take Hefei." ”
"If you can take it, the agreement on the demarcation of Xiangshui is valid, and the three counties of Changsha, Guiyang, and Jiangxia will be given to Jiangdong, if not, then the ownership of Jingzhou will be completely settled, and there will be no more Uncle Liu Huang 'borrowing' Jingzhou."
The scribe deliberately accentuated the word "borrow" in his words.
And it's the word, it's the notice... and even the core and key of the Sun-Liu Alliance.
A girl asked, "Then, can Jiangdong take Hefei?" ”
Not to mention, as soon as this issue was raised, it immediately aroused widespread discussion.
"Isn't Cao Cao's main force in Hanzhong? And Hefei is isolated? If this can't be beaten, then Jiangdong is too weak, right? ”
"It's hard to say, I heard that the general Cao Ying stationed in Hefei is Zhang Liao and Zhang Wenyuan, I'm afraid you have forgotten the battle of White Wolf Mountain in the twelfth year of Jian'an, right? Listening to the businessmen in the north, Zhang Wenyuan was crazy in that battle! ”
"What if you're crazy? It is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice, no matter how powerful Zhang Wenyuan is, can he stop the invasion of Dongwu with the strength of the whole country? I'm afraid you don't know yet, recently that Wu Hou has gathered 100,000 soldiers and horses in Jianye, ready to go north to Hefei at any time! ”
For a time, the discussion about whether Jiangdong could take Hefei intensified.
The issue of the ownership of the three counties of Changsha, Guiyang, and Jiangxia has also become the focus of discussion among the people of Jiangling.
The more Zhuge Jin looked at it, the more he palpitated, and he gritted his teeth.
After all, he has a good temperament, but at this moment, it is inevitable that his eyebrows are full of anger.
He said fiercely, "This is... Is this bullying me Jiangdong no one? ”
Zhuge Jin couldn't wait to intercept this notice directly, and told everyone that he was the envoy of Jiangdong, and he had never discussed with Guan Yu, let alone reached such an agreement.
Who would have thought that his son Zhuge Ke grabbed him before he had a seizure.
Zhuge Ke whispered: "Dad... This notice shows Gangneung, everyone knows, this is my great joy in Jiangdong! ”
Not...
Zhuge Jin looked at his son Zhuge Ke suspiciously.
Zhuge Ke smiled, he still suppressed his voice, but the tone couldn't stop throbbing. "The child has already seen that the talent is outstanding, the merit covers a country, and the one who seeks to obtain the three counties in the east of Xiangshui is none other than our Zhuge clan!"
This...
Zhuge Jin was even more puzzled, for a moment, he even felt that he not only didn't understand the "notice" of Jiangling City.
Even... Even his son can't see through it!
Wait a minute?
What does Ke'er mean?
Under this notice, does he have an idea to plot Jiangxia, Changsha, and Guiyang?
