Chapter 146: Jingzhou, It's Too Important!
The Jingzhou teenager Wen Ping came here, naturally not to have any friendship with Gongsun Zhu.
He's only here for one thing.
"Gongsun Fujun, my family envoy is afraid that Fujun will not return to Jincheng for a long time, so he passed some news to Fujun.
Some time ago, news came from Chang'an that Situ Wang Yun and Wenhou Lu Bu killed the traitor Dong Zhuo!
It's just that now Chang'an is in turmoil, and the Xiliang army may riot at any time, for the safety of Jingzhou and the safety of Gongsun Fujun, my lord asked a certain family to come to Nanyang to protect the safety of Gongsun Fujun.
Of course, in order to thank Gongsun Fujun for his help, my lord will give the only opportunity to recommend Maocai this year to the people around Fujun!
Other than that... I don't know when Fujun will return to Jincheng? ”
Wen Ping said it gently, but Gongsun Zhu was so angry that he really wanted to get up and drop with a hammer, and kill this guy with a hammer.
It's just that this time he didn't need Guo Tu to remind him, he put his anger down, Huang Zhong was silent, Cai Mao was full of arrogance, and Wang Wei blocked Fancheng.
Gongsun Zhu knew that this lineup was dealing with himself at this time.
Guan Yu's hand kept rubbing against the big knife, and he seemed to be ready to shoot at any time, Ma Chao's eyes were constantly patrolling the bodies of Wen Ping, Wang Wei and Cai Mao, as if he was thinking about who he could take down at one time when he suddenly made a move.
Only Guo Tu was on the side.
"You guys, calm down, you want to wipe your neck, don't pull a certain family."
"What are you doing with such impulsiveness one or two, don't you know that harmony is precious?"
"It's almost, people have given you enough face, do you think you can compare to Sun Jian if you do it again?"
Guo Tu's fragmented thoughts made Guan Yu have a headache when he heard it, and he glared at him suddenly.
"If you obey a certain family, you directly cut Cai Mao with a knife, where did you get so many things."
"You kind of slashed Liu Biao with a knife, and then cut Chang'an by the way, let your uncle go directly to the Great Han Jingshi to enter the palace, and then what's wrong, what kind of are you talking about here, why don't you let you do it, don't you have any points in your heart?"
Guo Tu is not the kind of person who can coax Guan Yu, so he went back directly, which made Guan Yu's face even redder.
"Since Nanyang can't stay, then I'll wait..."
"We have already sent the people and grain to Deng County, and I hope that the little general will return to Deng County to appease the people."
Wen Zhongye chuckled and gave Gongsun Zhu the only way, and Cai Mao's eyes seemed to be full of provocation, wanting to force Gongsun Zhu to do it, and then directly expel this guy together.
It's just that Gongsun Zhu didn't give him this opportunity.
"Huo Du, take the soldiers and horses back to Deng County!"
Gongsun Zhu finally obediently returned to Deng County with the army, he didn't dare to make a move, and he was not qualified to break out with them.
Cai Mao's provocative eyes wished that Gongsun Zhu would do it now.
Now that Sun Jian is dead, most of the Yuzhou army has been taken over by Liu Biao, Yuan Shu has slowly withdrawn from Nanyang County, and the situation in Jingzhou is very good.
At this time, it was the time when many forces under Liu Biao's command were vying for benefits, and Liu Biao was going to take the opportunity to fill in the forces, how could he allow Gongsun Zhu to gain a foothold in Nanyang County.
Of course, Gongsun Zhu knew that Liu Jingsheng had never been a generous person, but he didn't expect that this guy would not even be a human being so soon.
Although he is also very helpless, but there is no way, the situation is not as good as people at this time, he can't turn his face directly, and in the end, it is not Cai Mao's house that is cheaper.
This guy obviously wants to expel them from Jingzhou and then monopolize Nanyang and other places.
And looking at the appearance of Wenpin Huang Zhong and others, these people seem to be planning to ignore them, maybe for these people.
The existence of Gongsun Zhu has not had much effect at this time, if it were not for Liu Biao's mood, I am afraid that some people would not have the idea of taking it seriously.
Of course, there are also Huang Zhong and Liu Pan, they are not ruthless, they can't be controlled.
Huang Zhong is a native of Nanyang, and he has nothing to do with the Jiangxia Huang family.
Liu Pan is Liu Biao's subordinate, how powerful Liu Biao is, how powerful he is, and now these two people belong to the kind that has nothing.
After returning to Deng County, everyone's expressions were not very good, that is, the Huo family brothers were taken back to Deng County by Gongsun Zhu on the opportunity, and they did not propose to leave, but they also did not say anything.
Seeing that everyone seemed to be sullen, Gongsun Zhu tried his best to calm his mentality, and then looked at Guo Tu, who had always been different.
"Did you have predicted that there would be such an outcome?" Gongsun Zhu looked at Guo Tu, and always felt that this guy had expected the current situation, after all, when he was resettled as a refugee, this guy said it more than once.
This refugee finally had a chance to breathe, and quickly settled them, there are many refugees in Nanyang County, not worse than their thousands of children.
Now that I think about it, it seems that there is something in the words.
Guo Tu only pursed his lips when he heard Gongsun Zhu's inquiry, and did not admit it, but he did not deny it.
At this moment, Gongsun Zhu, who knew him well, was even more annoyed, and almost burst out again the anger that had just been suppressed.
"When did you see it, why didn't you tell me wait?"
"From the time when Liu Biao lent Nanyang to me so happily, a certain family knew that he didn't have any sincerity, not to mention whether he could call the shots in Jingzhou.
Nanyang County is the northern barrier of Jingzhou, is he crazy to hand over to you an outsider, or is it a Jincheng County Guard who has nothing to do with it and doesn't know where it came from.
Even if you have a reputation, what does it have to do with him?
Not to mention that there is no big enemy in Jingzhou now, even if Yuan Shu makes a comeback, he can't trust you guy.
There are many famous generals in Jingzhou, and there are more capable people, so what do you need to help them defend the northern barrier. ”
"Then you said that you lent Nanyang to me!"
"Hey, wait a minute." Guo Tu suddenly stretched out his hand and stopped Gongsun Zhu's words, "We have to make it clear."
First, what Guo said at the beginning was Fancheng, you didn't rob it yourself, and finally asked for a Dengxian foothold, of course, it's not impossible for you to want Fancheng now, and Liu Biao doesn't give it to you, but a certain family thinks it's not necessary, after all, there is no difference.
Second, what Guo wanted was for Liu Jingzhou to secondment Nanyang and me, but when did a certain family say that it would give it to you now, Liu Jingzhou didn't seem to have said such a thing.
Believe it not, take out the letter and see it for yourselves. ”
Guo Tu's words have a sense of shirking responsibility, and Ma Chao almost couldn't help but take Gongsun Zhu's hammer and give him a ruthless blow.
However, Gongsun Zhu was suddenly stunned for a moment, and looked at Guo Tu with a strange face.
"You mean you still have a backhand?"
Just now, he heard it very clearly, Guo Tu told him that he asked Liu Jingzhou to be seconded to Nanyang County, but he didn't say the time.
That's a very interesting statement.
"Hehe, a certain family doesn't mean that!" Guo Tu is also a temperamental, after a sneer, his neck is raised high, and he looks like he ignores Gongsun Zhuai.
See this slut... The hypocritical Guo Tu, Gongsun Zhu is also at ease, although this guy is a little nervous, but sometimes it is really easy to use.
"Oh, Gongzhi, are you tired, do you want someone to loosen your muscles and bones, knead and knead?" Gongsun Zhu said this and pressed Guo Tu on the table, and then yelled at Ma Chao.
"Meng Qi, why are you still in a daze, don't you see that Gong Ze has no strength to speak now, it's not good to serve Mr., the sledgehammer made by a certain family for himself is there, quickly knock Mr. on the back!"
Guo Tu, who was rudely pressed on the table by Gongsun Zhu, heard these words as soon as he wanted to resist, and couldn't help but tremble.
"Gongsun Zhu, a certain family just saved your life!"
Guo Tu's wail did not affect Ma Chao's movements, and at the moment when the sledgehammer was about to fall, Guo Tu finally said what Gongsun Zhu wanted to hear.
"A certain family has three plans, which can solve this matter!"
"Hey, wouldn't it be nice to say that earlier, you have to pretend to be something." Gongsun Zhu pursed his lips, and then handed Guo Tu a clay pot with a smile on his face, "Come, Mr. drink water." ”
Guo Tu angrily threw the clay pot to the side, and then snorted coldly.
"Shangji, now a certain family will go to Xiangyang and tell Liu Biao that I have not been home for a long time, and now I want to return to Jincheng, hoping that Liu Biao can allocate grain and straw.
Liu Jingsheng is ashamed of us, and many forces in Jingzhou also want us to leave, so they are naturally willing to send us away.
These grains and straw are naturally not a problem. ”
"Next!" Gongsun Zhu also knew that this was a good strategy, but he really didn't want to go back like this.
And he didn't come to Jingzhou because his brain was hot, he didn't want his family to come here to toss, he had only one purpose, he wanted Jingzhou!
It must be Jingzhou!
"Zhongji, we will cultivate on the spot, train soldiers to prepare grain, the changes in Chang'an will definitely not be stable, this world is no longer the big man of the year.
We just need to wait and see how the world changes, and follow the trend. ”
The plan is also very simple, that is, a wait, sit and wait for the opportunity to come.
However, Gongsun Zhu hesitated for a long time and finally did not agree.
"Too passive, what's the next plan?"
Looking at Gongsun Zhu's undying appearance, Guo Tu also sighed.
"Make a plan, exchange Deng County for Changsha, now Liu Jingsheng has attacked Zhang Xian for a long time, but he can't attack it for a long time, and now those guys will not be interested in Changsha after Nanyang County starts.
Now that Liu Jingzhou has an excellent opportunity, if he wants to change this situation, he will definitely try his best to win those surrendered troops from Yuzhou.
And if we can take the initiative to help Liu Jingzhou solve the problems of Changsha and even the whole of Jingnan at this time, Liu Jingzhou is naturally extremely willing.
Of course, if you just say this kind of thing, there will be two problems.
First, Liu Jingzhou would not believe that you, the county guard of Jincheng County, would have such good intentions, and he would definitely take strict precautions against you, or even refuse.
Second, you won't be so kind to Liu Jingzhou, and you are also worried that he will unload and kill the donkey again, and the cooperation between you will be full of intrigues from the beginning. ”
Guo Tu's words made Gongsun Zhu's eyes narrow, but he still continued to ask.
"In that case, why are you still talking about this strategy?"
"Because it's fast!" Guo Tu sighed, "Actually, from the bottom of my heart, a certain family would prefer you to turn around or wait for the opportunity."
Although a certain family has never seen how your Gongsun Zhu has come to such a point in the past few years.
But the rise in the end of the micro can still sit in a county guard, in this troubled times, a certain family believes that you will be able to create a fame.
Merely... Although the land of Yongliang is located on the border, many foreign races such as Qianghu, Xiongnu, Xianbei and so on are rampant.
However, it also has its unique advantages, the countries of the Western Regions are rich in materials and people, rich in resources, and can be connected to the Central Plains by trade routes, and quickly accumulate a lot of wealth.
Of course, it is necessary to fight the Qianghu and the Huns.
The people of the northwest are fierce, the Qiang and Han live together, and the people of Yongliang have had the choice of Western soldiers since ancient times.
Of course, this also needs to fight the Qianghu and the Xiongnu.
Among them, Yongliang is close to Hanzhong and Sili, and can be merged with the state in the north, and can go to the east of the river in the south, which is a good place that is easy to defend and difficult to attack.
As long as the time comes, subduing the Qianghu and the Xiongnu, you can stand on one side and sit and watch the changes in the world.
It's a pity that you just don't want to go back, but if you walk in the Central Plains, you can only wait and see what happens.
This land of the Central Plains is a land of treasures, with many families and forces, and you can't get your little thing in the Central Plains, so you can only sit and watch the changes in the world and see the stitches.
As for the future, your father and son will join forces in Guanzhong to help him open the Central Plains Avenue.
But you still don't want to, you're too anxious, so there's only one way left.
That is to defend according to the danger, monopolize one side, avoid the Central Plains, and develop separately from your father, so that the tacit understanding between your father and son is very exquisite.
If you're not careful, both of you and your father will have a lot of trouble, and this road is extremely difficult.
But there are also advantages, your father's identity is a problem after all, you kid has a natural ability to mess everything up, and the trouble you get into is bigger than the other.
This is a strange skill, but if you use it well, you can help your father solve many problems that he can't solve.
How to choose, you can decide for yourself. ”
Guo Tu's words made Gongsun Zhu fall silent for a while, and coming to this point is completely contrary to what he thought back then.
But when he came to this point, he didn't regret it, and he finally let his cheap dad have a stable place.
But by this coincidence, it seems that he has embarked on the same path that his father should have taken.
It's really a good reincarnation of heaven, who does the sky forgive.
"Then how should we solve the two problems you said?" Gongsun Zhu asked this question, which means that he has made a choice.
Guo Tu sighed helplessly, "It's easy to do, isn't Liu Jingzhou going to give the people around you Maocai, if you have a son, push your son, if you don't have a son, you can only recommend your clan or someone you trust."
Wait until your Maocai comes down, and then take him... No, what is your origin? But recommended? ”
"It's... Not! ”
"You're from a military background?"
"Hmm!"
Looking at Gongsun Zhu with an indifferent face, Guo Tu's face changed a little.
"If so... Wouldn't it be good if you asked for the identity of this Maocai directly?
Then give the county guard of Jincheng County, so that people can recommend you to other states, and use Jingnan as a springboard?
Yizhou, Shangyong, Hanzhong, Jiaozhou, Yangzhou, you can choose one of these places, and the final result is the same anyway. ”
In the city of Xiangyang, Guo Tu visited Liu Biao again.
This time, Guo Tu didn't play tricks again, and this time neither of them was in the mood to say more nonsense.
Liu Biao wants to speed up to grab more soldiers, and to strive for more initiative in the next time, his eldest son Liu Qi and many family members are also coming to Jingzhou.
At the same time, he has also used his identity to continue to send invitations to many of his friends, he wants to promote education in Jingzhou, and invite many celebrities to settle in Jingzhou.
At the same time, for the sake of Jingzhou and for himself, he quickly opened his reputation.
Liu Biao is not a state pastor, and he also knows who he relies on now, and he has to change after the balance!
Everything he did was hated for not having enough time, where would he have the time to say more unnecessary nonsense to Guo Tu here.
And Guo Tu is the same, since the madman of his family, since he has decided to take the most difficult road, then he must make all kinds of preparations.
His time is even more tense than Liu Biao, where does he have time to talk nonsense about Liu Biao, besides, now who on both sides doesn't know that the other party is not in a good mood, and it is already very good to get by on the face.
Guo Tu first told Liu Biao that Gongsun Zhu was determined to achieve a career, and said here that his roots were in the northwest.
It's just that there is really no way now, Chang'an is in chaos, and he can't let the army pass.
It's really a helpless move!
At the same time, he thanked Liu Biao for recommending his Maocai, and at the same time secretly told Liu Biao that Gongsun Zhu also decided to write a letter to the generals of Jincheng County.
Ask them to directly use the name of Gongsun Zhu Jincheng County Guard and the seal ribbon to recommend Liu Qi, the son of Liu Biao, as filial piety, which can be regarded as expressing their gratitude.
This is also Guo Tu's means, in case Liu Biao regrets it again, in order to win over the Jingzhou family, he will give this place to others.
Gongsun Zhu recommended Liu Qi, who was thousands of miles away from Jincheng, this kind of thing would definitely let people with a heart inquire, if Liu Biao gave the quota of Maocai to Gongsun Zhu at this time.
Then this is two people showing each other, and that's a good story.
If Liu Biao speaks like a fart again, then even if Guo Tu and Gongsun Zhu don't say anything, Gongsun Zhu will have to pass on this matter and question it.
Whether his reputation is still alive or not!
At that time, his reputation as Liu Biao's first life can be regarded as a loss.
Liu Biao couldn't help but turn dark after listening to Guo Tu's words, and then looked at Kuai Yue on the side, and there seemed to be a little helplessness in his eyes.
Guo Tu actually guessed correctly, this place, Kuai Qi of the Kuai family also took a fancy to it.
At this time, Guo Tu made this way, so that Liu Biao could only "apologize" to Kuai Yue, but Kuai Yue smiled slightly, and seemed to be a little more relaxed.
Kuai Yue can represent the meaning of the Kuai family, but the Kuai family does not represent the meaning of Kuai Yue many times, and the family affairs are always so unclear.
After Guo Tu confirmed Maocai's matter, he also stated his purpose again.
He hoped that Liu Biao would be able to send troops to help him enter the land of mediocrity after recommending Gongsun Zhu as Maocai, and at the same time, Guo Tu also asked Gongsun Zhu to say it in a letter to Ma Teng and others in Jincheng County.
Prepare them and build momentum.
In this way, even if he really goes out of town again in the future, it is not too shocking.
The most important thing is not to make too much movement in Jincheng County.
As for who was stationed in Jincheng County instead of him, Gongsun Zhu didn't think about this, and at this moment he hated himself for not giving birth to a son earlier.
As for the mediocre land connecting Hanzhong, you can enter Yongliang from Hanzhong at the same time.
The choice of this has nothing to do with Liu Biao, it can reassure Liu Biao and those forces.
At this time, Guo Tu told Liu Biao again that they were willing to leave Jingzhou and enter Shangyong, but this took time and a springboard, and it was quite difficult for Deng County to enter Shangyong.
So he wanted to enter the land of Jingnan, of course, as a price, they were willing to help Liu Biao to pacify Zhang Xian in Jingnan.
This condition made Liu Biao a little surprised, it seemed to be interlocking, but this was also excellent news for Liu Biao.
And as Guo Tu said before, if there is a mediocre place, there is no need for Gongsun Zhu, the nephew, to stay in Jingzhou for a long time.
Moreover, it is a chaotic place like Jingnan, except for Changsha, several other places are barren land and barbarian places, each of which is more than a headache.
Especially the existence of a stubborn donkey like Zhang Xian.
Although Liu Biao also felt that there seemed to be some conspiracy here, the conditions and reasons given by Guo Tu did make him unable to find anything to suspect.
After thinking about it for a long time, Liu Biao didn't ask the Kuai brothers again this time, and finally chose to agree.
Of course, Guo Tu also bought enough time for Gongsun Zhu, and now they need to repair and appease the people who follow them back and forth.
After the autumn harvest, troops will be prepared, and in the spring of next year, they will cross the Han River and attack Changsha.
Whether it is a delaying tactic or not, in short, at this time, this is already the best result!
After Guo Tu went back, he also began to step up his exploration of Changsha, and at the same time began to let Gongsun Zhu appease the people's livelihood as much as possible, because this year's grain storage in Deng County is not only to appease the people.
It's more about preparing a back road for them.
Zhang Xian was able to block Liu Biao for so long, and he was already an extremely difficult character.
Don't look at him, Zhang Xian now seems to be just Changsha Taishou, but he has almost divided the entire land of Jingnan.
In other words, the four counties of Jingnan are now looking at his horse, which is quite important.
