Chapter 1169 Winning Jingzhou Five

"A notice from the State Shepherd's Mansion?"

"Everyone, come and see!"

"It turns out that the great war in Jiangxia during this period was due to Jiangdong's bandits intending to seize Jingzhou, so they colluded with the eldest son Liu Qi to seize the state shepherd, and the subordinates offended the superiors. It's a battle of rebellion!"

"Master Zhou Mu suffered a serious setback because of this, and is dying!"

"In desperation, Master Zhou invited the Yizhou herdsmen to go south to defend against the enemy, to pacify Jingzhou for me, and repel the Jiangdong bandits!"

"Master Zhou Mu is now said to belong to the young master Liu Zong!"

"Master Zhou Mu also invited the Marquis of Ming Dynasty to assist the government!"

"Jingzhou respects the young master Liu Zong!"

"Eldest son Liu Qi is disobedient and unfilial, everyone please punish him!"

"..."

A notice was pasted on the gates of all counties and counties in the entire Jingzhou within a few days, and it was observed by countless people.

"what is this?"

Countless people are arousing doubts in their hearts.

"Jiangdong invaded my Jingzhou. These ambitious thieves are too abominable. They even joined forces with the eldest son Liu Qi. They are really deceiving!"

"Thanks to the help of Yizhou Mujun!"

"Otherwise, wouldn't I, Jingzhou, have already been captured by those thieves in Jiangdong!"

"Lord State Shepherd was injured because of this!"

"Now that I am dying, what should I do in Jingzhou in the future!"

"Hey, didn't you say that the Yizhou army attacked me in Jingzhou before, but I didn't expect it to be Jiangdong thieves!"

"Marquis Ming understands righteousness!"

"Little son is still young, can he still support me in Jingzhou?"

"In such a chaotic world, if there is no Master State Shepherd, my Jingzhou will be at the mercy of others. Who can stand up and protect one side for the people of Jingzhou!"

"..."

The common people are a group of people who work from day to day and rest from day to day. Most of them have never read a book. They don't know what a fierce struggle is, and they don't know what analyzing peace is.

People's wisdom is not open, a little ignorant.

This is the characteristic of this age.

They have dependent trust in the government, so as soon as the official document is posted, countless people will follow suit. They don't know what the truth is, and what they see are two things.

First, that is the announcement of the State Shepherd's Mansion. The government has no reason to fool ordinary people like them, so trust what the government says.

Second, what to do after that day, the government is in the sky. Even though Liu Biao has imposed heavy taxes in the past few years and is a bit militaristic, the people will attribute their surviving days to the protection of the government. Losing the government Protection, they will be unsteady and afraid.

........................

Of course, Liu Biao's announcement could only fool the common people, not the insiders, but when this announcement came out, countless people who were still clamoring to attack the herd army became speechless and became silent.

Who is Liu Biao.

He is the Jingzhou shepherd of the imperial court, and a prince who has been in Jingzhou for many years.

His deterrence is powerful.

Even if it is a small mountain village, there will be a sense of awe towards Liu Shijun.

He announced it, representing the future of Jingzhou.

Even if someone objects.

Some people don't know.

However, the influence of this announcement cannot be erased. It has turned countless people from a firm anti-herd formation to a somewhat neutral one. The upper echelons of Jingzhou are those powerful family members.

But the mainstay of Jingzhou is indeed the gentry and wealthy families in those places.

Each of the country gentry and aristocrats has granaries, weapons, and population, and their influence is beyond the county, but they represent a group of classes. Their support and opposition can affect the direction of the entire Jingzhou.

Too many gentry and aristocratic families are not very optimistic about Ming Hou Mujing. After all, the so-called gentry and aristocratic families have many scholars in the scholar forest. There are rumors in the scholar forest that Mujing is a vicious tyrant who ransacked his family and wiped out his family. A generation of murderers.

But the most important thing is that Liu Biao supports Mu Jing now.

This is awkward.

These gentry and powerful families are actually the basis for Liu Biao to gain a foothold in Jingzhou. Liu Biao entered Jingzhou by using powerful families such as Kuai and Cai, but he established himself in Jingzhou because he could get the support of these gentry and powerful families.

He supported these gentry and noble families to resist the influence of the big family, and invisibly increased the influence of these gentry and noble families, and also increased their interests.

Therefore, the support of these country gentry and aristocrats for him is also huge.

Liu Biao is a person with strong balance. He entered Jingzhou alone. In Jingzhou, he has no foundation at all except his reputation as a scholar.

However, he was different, so he settled down.

This is his method.

The emperor-like method, promoting a force and suppressing a force, leads to a sense of balance. As long as the forces can be balanced, he can increase his influence in the middle, because he is the referee.

If one side dominates, the referees will fight. If the teams are evenly matched, then the referee's bias is very important, and the invisible influence will increase.

In the prosperous age, Liu Biao would definitely be a good emperor.

It's just that he was born at the wrong time.

This is troubled times.

In troubled times, it is not enough just to have the means and the city.

Even without Mujing.

Several years later, Liu Biao still couldn't keep Jingzhou, and he still couldn't achieve hegemony.

But now, Liu Biao's influence in Jingzhou is indeed huge. It is so big that it can make countless people who make decisions about the future of Jingzhou tremble. When his announcement is made, everyone is frightened.

……

Changsha.

Han Xuan was sitting cross-legged behind the desk. What he had in his hand was the notice on the capture of Sifang City this morning. However, if one copy of this notice was seized, someone would paste another copy. Someone must have put a lot of effort into it, and it was inexhaustible. .

The influence of this announcement has already been initially revealed.

Changsha, some booing rhythm.

Someone clamored to send troops to the north, enter Jiangxia, and fight for Jiangdong.

Someone yelled that the Mu clan held the Lord, and he would die badly, and that he needed to send troops to rescue Liu Biao who was in dire straits.

There are all kinds of voices.

His head got a little bigger.

"Master Taishou, someone is asking to see you outside!"

"who!"

"This is a greeting card!" Chang Sui presented a greeting card.

"Minghou Mansion, Master of the Marching Army, Xu Shu!"

Han Xuan frowned.

He was very upset.

To see, or not to see?

Others saw it as a notice.

He is a majestic Changsha prefect, he knows so much that he can't see it in front of his eyes, he knows a lot, such as the situation in Jingzhou, the changes in Jiangxia, he is very clear, there will be news every day, he came back from Jiangxia.

I thought this battle was a counterattack.

But never thought.

Mu Jun turned around.

They turned so thoroughly that they took down Liu Biao with one hit. They Jingzhou, with great strength, had already declared the defeat of this battle before they even spent five points.

Although the Jingzhou army is still there.

The generals of the various ministries are still holding heavy troops.

But Han Xuan understood clearly.

Jingzhou is hopeless.

Mu's capture of Jingzhou is already a certainty.

"Let him in!" After a while, Han Xuan whispered.

"promise!"

The long follower walked down and quickly invited Xu Shu in.

"Xu Shu of the Marquis of Ming Dynasty, pay homage to Prefect Han!"

Xu Shu walked in and bowed to salute.

"On Lumen Mountain, Sima Gong, Pang Gong, and Huang Gong are all great sages in the world, and you, as a scholar of Lumen Mountain and a disciple of all sages, should have great ambitions, to help the world and serve the imperial court as your duty. How can you be ashamed to serve bandits?"

Han Xuan preemptively attacked, his anger was like fire.

There are quite a few people who know the details of Xu Shu, and he is one of them. As the proud disciples taught by several great sages in Lumen Mountain, he is also somewhat famous in Jingzhou.

"Who is a thief?"

Xu Shu asked.

"The Mu family was born as a traitor. In the past, the country invaded Mushan, ruined the court, lost etiquette, hijacked the emperor, and wanted to command the world, and conquer the heroes of the world. He is not a thief. Why? For my own selfishness, I provoked wars, made people miserable, and caused countless people in Jingzhou to be ruined and displaced, why not be a thief!!!"

Han Xuan said coldly.

He is an upright disciple of a sage, born as a scholar, he is deeply ashamed of Mu's family background, and looks down on Mu Jing.

"Mr. Han's remark is a loss of fairness and identity!"

Xu Shu was not humble and did not say a word, and responded calmly, but his voice became tougher. After entering the Minghou Mansion, the sense of belonging is not very strong, but when getting along, there is a kind of recognition. The belief held by the Minghou Mansion, He supports it and does not allow others to slander it.

"Don't talk about Mu Xiangguo's affairs back then, the death of the first emperor, you understand that if you don't want to believe it, saying it is invalid, whether Mu Xiangguo is a national thief or a powerful minister, he will live and die with the first emperor after all."

Xu Shu's power of refutation, even if it is not as good as Zhuge Kongming in history, will not be much worse. Scholars, a pen, and a mouth can kill and save people. The imperial court, which started with Hanzhong, was invited by Liu Yanzhi, the former governor of Yizhou. He has been in power in Yizhou for several years. Today, in Yizhou, the people enjoy peace and peace, and have not suffered half of the disaster of war. This is a great merit. !"

"The battle of Jingzhou was not my lord's idea, but was invited by Duke Liu, the state shepherd. How could he deserve this crime? It would be a little unfair if Mr. Han put all the scourge of war in Jingzhou on my Minghou's mansion. !"

"One slap, no sound!"

"I, Yizhou, have been fighting with Jingzhou for several years. Who is right and wrong, who can tell clearly!"

"The world is in chaos!"

"My lord is here for peace, not for war!"

His voice was so dignified that Han Xuan was speechless.

The two looked at each other.

Han Xuan's eyes were deep and sharp, and he wanted to subdue Xu Shu, but Xu Shu's eyes were calm, calm, calm, calm and Shi Shiran.

After a while, Han Xuancai sighed: "However, it is the tragedy of Jingzhou that such a talent cannot stay in Jingzhou!"

"Time is also fate!"

Xu Shu thought for a while and answered.

"The hype you said is useless. What is the truth? You and I know it well in our hearts. It is useless to talk more. You came here today. What is the matter? Just tell me. The two armies are fighting. If you don't kill it, you will get out of here , half a step into Changsha, and kill Wushe!"

Han Xuan said coldly.

"The concubine came here to talk about surrendering to Duke Han!"

Xu Shu said calmly.

"Hahaha!"

Han Xuan laughed: "Your words are really ridiculous. A certain is the prefect of Changsha in Jingzhou, who bears the life and death of the people of Changsha. Even if he dies in this battle, how can he be surrendered to you? Mulongtu actually asked you to surrender, isn't it? You are scorning my son of Jingzhou!"

"Zhang Yun is going south!" Xu Shu's soft words stopped Han Xuan's laughter.

His pupils dilated.

"impossible!"

Han Xuan gritted his teeth.

"Duke Han thinks it's impossible, or is he unwilling to admit it in his heart. Today's Jingzhou is already torn apart. At this moment, there are still a few people who can guard the state and be loyal to Duke Liu just like Duke Han!"

Xu Shu calmly explained: "Mr. Liu has ordered my lord to assist the government. The young master Liu Zong is the master of Jingzhou, but the eldest son Liu Qi will not let it go. The civil war in Jingzhou is imminent. Either support the young master or the eldest son. Not to mention, there are people who want to become king on their own, such as Zhang Yun, he has a strong army in his hand, but he has no foundation, if he wants to be king, he must go south, only in Changsha when he comes back, he has a chance to gain a foothold!"

"Don't stay here, sow discord!"

Han Xuan shouted angrily.

"Since Han Gong is a sensible person, no matter how high-sounding I say, I'm afraid it will be difficult for Han Gong to calm down and think about it. If so, I will open up and talk to Han Gong!" Xu Shu continued: "Today's Jingzhou , the Minghou Mansion is bound to be won, for this reason, I have lost the interests of the entire Guanzhong, and if we do not get Jingzhou, we will not let it go, even if we do our best, even if we continue to transfer troops from Yizhou, we will not hesitate!"

"War is inevitable!"

"But you still have a choice!"

“Changsha is a place!”

"Over the years, although there have been waves, they have never been too cruelly destroyed!"

"But once the army goes south, Zhang Yun intends to stand on his own, and our army will drive straight in. There will be a bloody battle. At that time, whether Changsha will be destroyed by the war, no one can guarantee!"

"Han Gong is the prefect of Changsha. He must bear the greatest responsibility for Changsha. If you don't want to see the people in Changsha displaced, you should know what to do!"

Xu Shu's words seemed like a hammer, constantly knocking on Han Xuan's heart.

There is no good evaluation of Han Xuan in history.

But Han Xuan is an official who loves the people.

He has been in power in Changsha for many years, and his feelings for Changsha are definitely not the indifference shown.

This is his deathbed.

Just like that sentence, war is inevitable.

Han Xuan's complexion was a little ugly.

Terribly ferocious.

As complicated as his mood was, he even looked at Xu Shu with a hint of murderous intent, and had the urge to kill Xu Shu on the spot, because he was afraid that if Xu Shu continued to talk like this, he would really persist. live.

"Mr. Han!"

Xu Shu continued to speak: "Zhang Yun's tens of thousands of soldiers, 5.00% sixty, are Changsha Erlang. If it is destroyed, how many families in Changsha will lose their sons, husbands, and fathers. Have you thought about it!"

"Zhang Yun is a famous general!"

Han Xuan said stiffly.

"It just so happens that this famous general has been defeated by my Minghou Mansion more than once!" Xu Shu smiled faintly.

The eyes of the two touched the sword light and sword shadow again.

"Zhang Yun wants to come back, we can't stop it, but Changsha, we are determined to win, and when the time comes, you, the prefect, can only be responsible for where Changsha goes!" Xu Shu said: "Of course, if Han Gong doesn't Yes, there is a second choice!"

"Let's hear it!" Han Xuan's mood was very complicated.

He didn't want to hear it, but he had to listen, because he also knew that Zhang Yun might not be the opponent of Mu Jun. After all these years of fighting, Mu Jun's combat effectiveness had already been clearly placed.

"If Zhang Yunru can surrender, then the world will be peaceful!"

Xu Shu smiled and said, "At least there will be no war in Changsha!"
