Rebirth of the Three Kingdoms I call the shots

Chapter 208 The Times Create Heroes

The matter of Liu Qi's ascension to the throne and dethroning the emperor is going on in secret. There is a strange atmosphere in Xinye. The 20 Xinye people have a psychological expectation that the emperor will be born in Xinye.

Strange to say, the place where Sun Jian's [-] soldiers were originally buried, a long black cloud shaped like a long dragon blown by a gust of wind in the clear sky, was used by Chen Wen and Hu Banxian as an example. Yes, the people of Xinye naturally firmly believe in it, and the surrounding counties and countries are also skeptical.

After defeating Sun Jian, Liu Qi had [-] soldiers. After resting for two days, he brought Jiang Wan, Chen Wu, Chen Chun and ten bronze armored guards to Xiangyang to win the victory. Of course, Zhao Yun led the Qilin Army and pretended to be civilians to protect him all the way. Now Liu Qi He is about to ascend the throne as the emperor, and security issues are even more important.

Liu Qi took Jiang Wan away with another intention, which was to leave Chen Wen and Hu Banxian in Xinye free to secretly arrange the depose of the Emperor Xian. Some shady scenes should not be known to outsiders. Only Jiang Wan can play the role of governing the country.

The news of Xinye's defeat of Sun Jian has already spread to Xiangyang. When Liu Qi rushed to Liu Biao's governor's office and succeeded, Liu Biao was overjoyed and praised Liu Qi for his military skills. With Xinye as a barrier in Jingzhou, Liu Biao could rest easy.

Liu Biao dismissed the idlers and went into the inner room to confirm that Mrs. Cai was not eavesdropping inside, then met with Liu Qi alone.

Liu Qi expressed his feelings directly, and said: "Father, the soldiers in Xinye are full of fighting spirit, and they defeated Sun Jian as soon as they sent troops. Now, some surrounding counties and countries have expressed their willingness to join forces to strengthen the strength of one place. My son wants to recruit the great army of the seven counties of Jingxiang and lead the army directly. How about forcing Chang'an, driving Dong Zhuo away, and supporting the emperor?"

Liu Biao turned pale with fright, coughed incessantly, and gasped, "Qi'er is so courageous, even the eighteen princes can't destroy Dong Zhuo, you have tens of thousands of troops to force Chang'an, you want to ruin your father Is there a future?"

Liu Qi said solemnly: "Everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the world. That day Sun Jian sent [-] soldiers to attack Jingzhou, how many people were willing to obey their father's order, and managed to gather [-] soldiers and horses for their children. Who didn't want to see a joke? Waiting for me to be destroyed by Sun Jian? At the critical moment, it was the child who stood up for the father, can't the father see this?"

"It's not that I don't understand, it's just that the world is changing fast. It's true that Qi'er has suffered a lot in the past few years, and her father didn't help you. It's all because of your personal struggle that you have today's strength." Liu Biao sighed, with He said in a terrified tone: "It's not that father intends to oppose you. It's okay if you succeed in forcing Chang'an, but if you lose, the people in the seven counties of Jingxiang and Xiangxi will be doomed. Everyone knows that Dong Zhuo is as poisonous as a snake and murderous as hemp." What a ruthless character!"

"As long as my father doesn't object, I can deal with Dong Zhuo." Liu Qi didn't want to have a deep talk with the timid Liu Biao. If he wanted to gain a foothold in Jingzhou, taking down Cai Mao was the most important thing. Liu Qi made another request, saying: "Father, I want to take over." Cai Mao's military power."

"What? You're going too far!" Liu Biao was so surprised that he couldn't close his mouth, coughed again, and almost got a heart attack from Liu Qi's few words.

"Father, the child is not joking." Liu Qi looked straight at Liu Biao with his chest up, and said seriously, "Father must not know that Cai Mao has been planning for a long time to rely on the power of the Cai family to steal his father's position. Now that I have defeated Sun Jian, it is certain that Cai Mao will definitely Panic, maybe there will be a sudden mutiny, if you don't act first, it will be too late to regret."

Liu Biao was puzzled for a moment, and muttered to himself: "Is it that serious? Cai Zhonglang is my brother-in-law. Could it be that he will try to take over my brother-in-law's position?"

"Father, don't be unwilling to believe that if Cai Mao talks about family affection, I won't be forced to go to Xinye. Cai Mao secretly expanded his troops and took control of the Xiangyang Imperial Guard. As long as father disrespects him a little, disaster will not be far away. "

Liu Biao is not an idiot either, Liu Biao knows what Liu Qi said, Cai Mao has long wanted to plot against Liu Biao. Sooner or later he will die at the hands of Cai Mao, it is better to let the eldest son Liu Qi, who has grown stronger, give it a go.

"Father, make a decision." Seeing Liu Biao's hesitation, Liu Qi urged him. In history, Liu Biao lost Jingzhou because of his weak personality. He was succeeded by Cai Mao's son Liu Cong after his death. Xiangqi County handed over to Cao Cao.

"Are you forcing me?" Liu Biao's tone weakened, and he was weak.

"Father, the situation is beyond your control. If you don't cut Cai Mao's military power at this time, you will sooner or later bring disaster to Xiao Qiang. If you are not strong, you will be controlled by others. Don't hide it from my father. I have 20 elite soldiers who can fight against millions of soldiers and horses. I can mobilize the soldiers of the people around No less than [-], there is nothing to be afraid of." Liu Qi gave Liu Biao a shot in the arm.

Liu Biao's eyes lit up: "Where did you get so many soldiers and horses? Why don't I know?"

"Father, don't you know how many soldiers and horses I have? As the saying goes, a strong general has no weak soldiers, and a tiger father has no dogs." Liu Qi asked back, and said: "I am the son of your governor of Jingzhou. King, father, you are the Supreme Emperor, take down Cai Mao, take down Jingzhou, and compete with Dong Zhuo just around the corner." Liu Qi played the family card.

Liu Biao's eyes widened, and he couldn't understand Liu Qi more and more. He pointed to Liu Qi's nose and gasped, "You, you, you want to rebel?"

Liu Biao didn't take it seriously, and replied calmly: "Father, the times make heroes. I think my father also knows the auspiciousness of Longxian Xinye. Besides, the golden slips of the great ancestor are also in my hands. Raise your arms, and the world will respond. This opportunity must not be missed. Come on, father, make a decision."

"You, you, you..." Liu Biao coughed again, and was too out of breath to speak. Liu Qi stepped forward to help, but was pushed away by Liu Biao.

Liu Biao steadied his pace, collected his mind, and examined Liu Qi for a long time like looking at an alien. Liu Qi was able to bear his temper and looked at Liu Biao without any guilt or remorse. In the end, Liu Biao was in front of Liu Qi's powerful aura. After being defeated, he compromised and sighed: "Father is old..."

"Father..." Liu Qi's throat choked up. Although Liu Biao and Liu Qi are biological father and son in name, Liu Qi has traveled through time. Looking at Liu Biao who just arrived in Jingzhou and wanted to do something, but was restrained by Cai Mao and unable to do anything, Liu Qi couldn't help being moved. Heart, it is difficult to be an official, and it is even more difficult to be a good official.

Liu Biao raised his head, acquiesced to Liu Qi's point of view that times make heroes, fixedly looked at Liu Qi, pointed to the seat in front of him, "Sit."

"Yes." Liu Qi sat down. He had become tough in front of Liu Biao before, but now that Liu Biao was persuaded, he became extremely humble in front of Liu Biao. This would make Liu Biao feel better. Liu Qi didn't even know if this was counted. It's hypocrisy.

Looking at the old Liu Biao, although Liu Qi felt a little uneasy, he still couldn't help comforting himself, being a person sometimes requires hypocrisy!

Liu Biao sighed, thought for a while, and finally said, "Boy, what do you need father to do?"

"Father." Liu Qi stood up, and now he had to be straightforward and calmly said: "Jingzhou is my decision."

"Okay, I hope that the seven prefectures of Jingxiang can be as prosperous and powerful as Xinye under Hai'er's governance, and I hope that millions of people can enjoy peace." Ganqing Liu Biao secretly followed Liu Qi's development in Xinye, Liu Biao seemed helpless , I finally let go of my heart. It is said that no official is light, and the son has a promising future. A father should be happy.

Liu Biao staggered into the inner room, took out the governor's seal, and wrote an official document on the spot, roughly meaning that he was getting old, and the position of governor would be passed on to his eldest son Liu Qi from now on. The Han Dynasty revitalized Jingxiang.

Liu Qi obtained the seal of the governor of Jingzhou and kept Liu Biao's handwritten official documents. In order to prevent the mutiny in Jingzhou, Liu Qi quickly took Liu Biao to the valley that night to avoid disaster and rest.

When Liu Biao went to the valley secretly through the six doors of the son's mansion, he saw the housekeeper Liu Zhong and his subordinate Huang Zhong, and then he realized that Liu Qi really had the strength to dare to fight against Cai Mao. It was a wise choice to hand over Jingzhou to Liu Qi as soon as possible.

Liu Qi called Jiang Wan, Chen Wu, housekeeper Liu Zhong, master Huang Zhong and other important figures in the valley that night to discuss the matter. Liu Biao was seated as the Supreme Emperor by Liu Qi and actively participated in Liu Qi's takeover of Jingzhou affairs. Liu Ming convened Cai Mao, the Kuai brothers, and important Jingzhou governors for a governor's meeting in the morning. At the meeting, Cai Mao was defeated and Liu Qi was announced on the spot to take over Jingzhou's defense and succeed him as governor.

In order to prevent Cai Mao from becoming vigilant and launch a mutiny, Liu Qi ordered Zhao Yun to lead the Qilin army to ambush around Cai's mansion overnight, and to keep an eye on Cai Mao's movements. Two thousand soldiers in the valley were secretly led by Huang Zhong to the governor's mansion to guard against Cai Mao's mutiny. Wan urgently released the pigeons, and Deng Zhi, Huang Xu, Wen Dai, and Zhang Ermazi sent [-] fast horses to surround Xiangyang.

The next day, as usual, Cai Mao, who always looked down on Liu Qi, the sick son, didn't realize the danger at all. When Cai Mao, the Kuai brothers and other troops arrived, Liu Biao suddenly changed his usual gentle and courteous style, and praised Liu Qi for his greatness. Two thousand soldiers defeated Sun Jian. Twenty thousand soldiers are a godly army. He even praised Xinye as better than a fairyland under Liu Qi's governance. Governance can make tens of millions of people in Jingzhou live a happier and more stable life.

All of you present here are smart people, and they faintly heard Liu Biao's intention to give way to Liu Qi. The representatives of the Kuai family and the Pang family didn't show any expressions. They are obvious to all of Liu Qi's achievements, as long as they don't hurt their interests. , Liu Biao and Liu Qi are the same as the governor, but Cai Mao is not. He hates Liu Qi, and his face becomes more and more ugly.

Regardless of Cai Mao's livid face, Liu Biao calmly took out the Inspector's seal from the seat and put it on the table, unfolded the abdication document, stood up, and said in a loud voice: "I announce that the Eldest Prince Liu Qi will succeed as Inspector of Jingzhou today. Great support."

Perhaps everyone was not mentally prepared at all, and there was no time to react, and the expected applause did not appear. Regardless of these, Liu Biao glanced at Cai Mao who was trembling with anger, walked out from the chair of the Grand Master, and said to Liu Qi: "Your Excellency, take your seat."

"Yes, Father." Without hesitation, Liu Qi took the main seat, and Liu Biao humbly sat on the small stool next to him.

"I object." Seeing that Liu Qi had really brazenly sat on the throne of governor, Cai Mao roared suddenly.

"The objection is invalid." Liu Qi sat firmly on the grand teacher's chair, slapped the gavel, and shouted: "Come here, let me take down Cai Mao, who missed the opportunity of the battle."

At this moment, everyone came to their senses, and Liu Biao and Liu Qi, father and son, sang "Hongmen Banquet" to the generals.

Cai Mao is the master who is used to being arrogant, how could he stand such humiliation, he pulled out his sword, pointed at Liu Qi angrily, and gritted his teeth: "Son Liu Qi, in Xiangyang, it is not your turn to give orders to your unworthy bastard."

Liu Qi smiled sternly, and threw out a command arrow: "General Wu listened to the order, Cai Mao blatantly despised the governor, the crime will be added to the crime, pulled out of the mansion, beheaded!"

"Yes." Chen Wu had been prepared for a long time, and without waiting for Cai Mao to swing his sword and move away, he knocked off Cai Mao's sword with his bare hands with lightning speed, knocked Cai Mao down with one punch, and there were two guards Chen Chun and Chen Xia. Jiang Fei stepped forward and twisted Cai Mao out of the house.

The situation became incomprehensible immediately, even the Kuai brothers didn't react, and saw Chen Wu, Chen Chun, and Chen Xia escorting the cursing Cai Mao just as he stepped out of the house, Chen Wu drew out his sword and pointed at him. Cai Mao chopped off his neck, his head rolled to the ground, blood spurted like a fountain, Cai Mao died without even uttering a word.
