Lu Bu, God of War of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 599 Conspiring to Capture Jingzhou
"Hmph, this old man is incompetent. I mistrusted you and caused such a catastrophe. You should send my head to Yecheng." Hearing Gongsun Du's words, he looked up at the people standing beside him. The soldier, Feng Ji showed a sneer, and didn't take the threat of death seriously, but said to Gongsun Du.

"Hahaha, Mister really puts life and death aside, but although the Lord Regent really wanted you to go to Yecheng to do things, he didn't kill you after you refused, and I, Gongsun Du, didn't want to send someone like Mr. Beheading Daoxia, how about this, now an old friend of yours is in Youzhou, and I want to invite you to go, I wonder if you are willing to go?" Seeing that Fengji refused to go to Yecheng to help Lu Bu, Gongsun Du did not think about it As for Fengji's killer, he changed the subject and asked again.

"Old man, I don't know who the general is talking about?" There are quite a few old men in Feng Ji's tent under Lv Bu, such as Zhang He Gaolan, who is also an old man of Feng Ji, but at this time he can still remember Feng Ji, so he specially sent someone here The person who made it clear for Fengji, but Fengji didn't know who it was, so he asked.

"It's Mr. Tian Feng, my good friend back then. I wonder if Mr. would like to go there?" Seeing Feng Jixiang asking, Gongsun Du said again.

"I didn't expect that he also surrendered to Lu Bu. That's fine, I'll go see him." Feng Ji didn't expect that now Tian Feng has also surrendered to Lu Bu's tent. When he arrived in Youzhou, he agreed with Gongsun Du in a little silence. proposal.

"Come on, send Mr. Fengji to see Mr. Tian Feng." Seeing that Fengji finally agreed, Gongsun Du seemed relieved, and waved to the soldiers beside him.

"My lord, Feng Ji is just a down-and-out scribe, why should my lord be so polite to him?" When the armored soldier left with Feng Ji, Li Min who was on the side took over at this time, and asked a little puzzled.Li Min saw the situation just now, and naturally saw something strange.

"Hmph, if it wasn't for Lu Bu's special instructions, why should I do this?" Seeing Li Min's question, Gongsun Du said angrily: "Now that we can get along well with Lu Bu, it will be very good for our future development. Good relationship, we can concentrate on attacking Korea."

"Concentrate on attacking Goryeo? Is the lord going to give up this hard-won Beiping?" Hearing that Gongsun Du only said that Goryeo didn't talk about Beiping, Li Min obviously asked with some concern.

"Although Lu Bu promised me to guard Liaodong forever, he didn't say that he would give me Beiping as well. Therefore, during this period of time, everyone should transport all the food, grass and military equipment in Beiping to Xiangping. If Lu Bu really doesn't want us to stay in Beiping, we There will be no loss." Gongsundu said with a smile to Li Min's question.

"Hey, this Beiping is a good place. If I really want to give up, I'm still a bit reluctant." Hearing Gongsun Du say that he should be ready to give up Beiping, Li Min sighed and said with some reluctance.

"Hmph, do you think I'm willing to spit out the meat that reaches my mouth? If it weren't for Lu Bu's power, we would be able to fight against him, and I would be willing to submit to others. Although Lu Bu has already withdrawn the army, Gao Shun is not the same. We are easy to get along with, and we are prepared, so we will be prepared.” For Li Min’s words, Gongsun Du naturally has a deep understanding, but people have to bow their heads under the eaves. Compared with fighting Lu Bu, Gongsun Du is more willing to hold his nose and be a man.

But it is said that since Zhuge Liang became Liu Bei's military adviser, while helping Liu Bei to expand his army and prepare for war in Xinye, he sent people deep into Jingzhou and Yizhou to explore the terrain and prepare for the future control of the two states.At the same time, the news that Lu Bu would annex the two states was widely publicized, which made people in Jingzhou and Yizhou panic.But Liu Bei took this opportunity to expand his strength.

"My lord, now that Lu Bu has pacified Hebei, if there is no accident, he will send troops to Jingzhou, intending to rule the world. My lord, I should make plans as soon as possible, so as not to be caught off guard." After receiving the news that Lu Bu had taken Hebei, Zhuge Liang hurriedly came to see Liu Bei, and said anxiously when he saw Liu Bei.

"Military division, since the military division came to our Xinye, we have been mobilizing all the people in Xinye, haven't we been making preparations? Why aren't we doing enough?" Hearing Zhuge Liang's words, Liu Bei was obviously anxious, and he must have been A lot of work has been done, and the soldiers and horses have also expanded a lot. In Liu Bei's view, this is already the limit of his ability. If it is not enough, Liu Bei really can't think of any good way.

"My lord, to tell you the truth, although my lord has already done a lot of things, if I want to fight against Lu Bu, my lord's preparation is not only insufficient, it can even be said to be completely insufficient, and my heart is only a small piece of land. With Xinye's financial and material resources, Even if we try our best, we will not have the strength to contend with Lu Bu." Seeing that Liu Bei seemed puzzled, Zhuge Liang sighed, and then said.

"What's the best opinion of the military master?" Hearing what Zhuge Liang said, Liu Bei also sighed, and then asked.

"Actually, what I mean is that I have already told my lord that if I want to compete with Lu Bu, the only chance is to win Jingzhou and use the strength of the nine counties of Jingzhou to fight against Lu Bu. Only in this way will we have a chance of winning, but the lord has always been against Lu Bu. It's just hesitation and reluctance to make a move." Hearing Liu Bei pretending to be confused, Zhuge Liang had no choice but to repeat the old story.

"Liu Biao of Jingzhou has been kind to me, how can I break my promise and seize other counties and counties? Isn't this my life's honor?" Liu Bei looked around at the old saying, thinking that taking Liu Biao's counties and counties would hinder his reputation.

"Brother, military advisor, can't we have a compromise? For example, we unite with Liu Biao and Jiangdong Sun Quan to fight against Lu Bu. Lu Bu went south to deal with them. Presumably they will support fighting Lu Bu." Seeing Liu Bei After arguing with Zhuge Liang, Guan Yu on the side finally spoke.

"General Guan, Liu Biao is old. Although he is not the lord of Jingzhou, he was bewitched by the Cai family. Even if he wanted to fight Lu Bu, he might not be able to do it. Besides, Sun Quan in Jiangdong is young. Zhou Yu, Zhang Zhao and other veterans rely on the old to sell the old. I live in soldiers and horses. Money and food can't be compared with it, how can they sincerely cooperate with us, even if we have formed an alliance with Liu Biao and Sun Quan, such an alliance has no power to compete with Lu Bu, we only have to be patient first, Jingzhou, we have enough Only then can we unite with Sun Quan of Eastern Wu to play a leading role in the alliance, and with the help of the coalition forces, we can wipe out Lu Bu and revive the Han Dynasty." Seeing Guan Yu coming to interject, Zhuge Liang explained to Guan Yu.

"If you say that, the situation is really critical." After listening to Zhuge Liang's explanation, Guan Yu also felt that Zhuge Liang's statement was very reasonable. He must have no strength to play his due role in the alliance. I can resign myself to fate.

"Hey, if I want to take Jingzhou, what is the best strategy for the military advisor? Liu Biao must treat me well. I really can't bear to harm him." After a long while, Liu Bei finally sighed secretly, and then said.

"My lord, what are you talking about? Jingzhou is the prefecture of the Han Dynasty, and the lord is the country of the Han Dynasty. Therefore, it is necessary to take Jingzhou in order to restore the Han Dynasty. Liu Biao, as a clan member of the Han Dynasty, should be able to understand the difficulty of the lord." See Liu Bei's heart. I still have doubts, and I will try to persuade them one by one, but after I finished speaking, I changed the topic and talked about my plan to attack Jingzhou: "Didn't Liu Biao once let Jingzhou be given to the lord? Why don't the lord just agree and take it like this?" In Jingzhou, you don’t need to spend a single soldier. If the lord thinks something is wrong, I have another strategy, which is to attack the eldest son Liu Qi. The lord only needs to explain that he supports the eldest son Liu Qi to sit in Jingzhou, and then he will definitely take action. At that time, our army will be able to pacify the Cai family and take over Jingzhou. As for General Xiahou Dun, as long as the lord sends someone to inform, General Xiahou Dun will definitely help. General Xiahoudun's revenge, in Xiahoudun's eyes, the only one who can compete with Lu Bu in the world is the master."

"Hey, I, Liu Bei, for the sake of the great Han society, have no choice but to kill each other. Please God forgive me, my ancestors don't blame me." After listening to Zhuge Liang's words, Liu Bei sighed, looked up at the sky and muttered to himself. Zhuge Liang said: "Let me do everything. I don't want to be involved in this matter." After Liu Bei turned around and left, the generals present heard Liu Bei's answer. Touched, but also relieved.

Two days later, Liu Qi was studying in the mansion when an old family member ran in in a panic.

"Old Zhao, what are you doing in such a panic? You are getting old, but you need to pay more attention to your body." Seeing the panic of this old family member, Liu Qi couldn't help joking.

"Young master, something is wrong. The villain received news that the body of the King of Xiangyang is worsening every day. I'm afraid he is going to die." The old man came to Liu Qi, panting for a while. , and then he spoke.

"What? I'm going to see my father right away." Hearing the old family's words, Liu Qilai hurriedly got up and was about to rush out of the house, but was blocked by the old family member.

"My lord, you can't do it. The villain also heard the news that the Cai family secretly mobilized troops and horses to deal with you when King Xiangyang was critically ill. You must not go there." At this time, the name The old family stood in front of Liu Qi and said tremblingly, obviously because they were too excited.

"How did this happen?" Hearing the old family's words behind him, Liu Qi suddenly felt his head buzzing, as if he was hit by something, took two steps back, fell back to his seat, and said in a low voice to Cai: "What should I do? Father, what should I do?" Liu Qi, as the eldest son, the heir of the Lord of Jingzhou, has always been proud and pampered. When did he experience such a change, and at this time he suddenly heard that Liu Biao was seriously ill, With the matter at stake, he suddenly lost his support, and his whole body became a little limp.
