Lu Dynasty

Chapter 478
Shamoke returned to Wuximan after receiving Liu Bei's order. He knew that Liu Bei was single and weak, and it was time for him to employ people, so Shamoke directly asked to see his father, the old king of Wuximan.Liu Bei wants to borrow soldiers, but Wuxi Man has no soldiers to lend him.You know, the Wuxi Man in Wuling is the same target of Sun Ce as Shanyue!However, Wuxi Man has no soldiers, which does not mean that Shanyue has no soldiers.Shanyue King and Wuxi Barbarian King are sworn brothers. Shanyue King Zhiyi lent [-] elite soldiers to Shamoke. The only condition is that Liu Bei will help Shanyue repair Sun Ce!

Shamoke agreed to this condition without even thinking about it. Liu Biao and Sun Ce had a hatred for killing their father.Although Liu Bei and Sun Ce have no personal grievances, Liu Bei is now Liu Biao's nominal subordinate anyway, so Liu Biao's enemies are Liu Bei's enemies.Since Shanyue and Shamoko have the same enemy, it is quite normal for them to form an alliance.

Liu Bei was very happy when he received the news that Shamoke successfully borrowed elite soldiers from Shanyue and Wuximan.However, Sima Hui's words stuck in Liu Bei's heart like a thorn.It's fine if Liu Bei doesn't know his own shortcomings, but he knows that he lacks advisers, especially top advisers like Guo Jia and Jia Xu who can coordinate and command, but how many of these advisers are willing to serve him?Liu Bei was very confused, and he hoped that someone could recommend some counselors like Guo Jia and Jia Xu to him. As for Sima Hui's saying that Wolong and Fengchu would be safe for the world, Liu Bei selectively ignored it, because he didn't know what to do. If you know who Wolong and Fengchu are, and you can't find them, you might as well not think about them.That's what Liu Bei is good at. He never thinks about things he can't figure out, and just works hard in his own direction, so he is unyielding!

Not only Liu Bei is worried, but Sima Hui is also worried.Sima Hui originally wanted Xu Shu to be the recommender of Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong, but Xu Shu ran away.Now neither Shi Guangyuan nor Meng Gongwei is optimistic about Liu Bei, and they all have the taste of hidden virtuousness in the mountains and forests, which makes Sima Hui really helpless.Sima Hui can't take Shi Guangyuan and the others to join Liu Bei!

Cai Mao was also very worried. He and Mrs. Cai conspired to assassinate Liu Biao. Although Liu Biao's health was getting worse day by day, Liu Biao wanted to see Liu Qi.How could Cai Hao let Liu Biao meet Liu Qi, but if he didn't let Liu Biao and Liu Qi meet, he was afraid of arousing Liu Bei's suspicion.The cruel Cai Mao gritted his teeth and decided to kill Liu Qi together.I don't know whether to say Liu Qi is lucky or Huang Zu is unlucky.Huang Zu, who was supposed to be killed by Sun Ce before and after Zhuge Liang came out of the mountain, fell into the Yangtze River and drowned for some unknown reason!Although there is an old saying: drown those who know how to water, and beat to death those who know how to punch, but a naval general like Huang Zu who grew up on the banks of the Yangtze River would actually be drowned. This has to be said that Huang Zu is too capable.

After Huang Zu's death, Liu Qi, who felt something was wrong, didn't want Zhuge Liang to come up with his ideas. After discussing with Liu Bei, he applied to Cai Mao to guard Jiangxia.Cai Mao was already worried about getting rid of Liu Qi, but now that Liu Qi wanted to leave by himself, it happened to be in line with Cai Mao's mind. He immediately agreed to Liu Qi's request to go to Jiangxia, and he even hoped that Liu Qi would die inexplicably like Huang Zu!Later, my spies found out that Huang Zu was killed by Liu Bei's people.Liu Bei saw that Cai Mao wanted to assassinate Liu Qi, and he also wanted a bigger city.The strong city of Jiangxia is exactly the bottom line in Cai Mao's heart!In this way, Liu Qi arrived in Jiangxia, he recruited troops in Jiangxia, and soon Jiangxia plus the original defenders had nearly 5 horses!And Liu Bei has Jiangxia's 5 horses, plus more than [-] elite soldiers in Xinye, so he feels more at ease!At least he now has the strength to fight!
Liu Bei's strength is really too weak, he has been living in the cracks, my eyes have never been on him.Seriously, I'm not Cao, I won't get carried away after victory, even if I unify the world, I'm still me!Because all of this is not what I want, except for Cai Yan and Gao Rui of course!
Cao knew that I was recruiting talents in Luoyang, and he was not far behind.So Cao, like me, established a recruiting hall in Xuchang.Although some people still objected, several conspirators under Cao's command agreed.After all, Cao also has two states. As far as talents from aristocratic families are concerned, they are not suitable for governing civil affairs.Not to mention, Lao Cao was luckier than Liu Bei. His recruiting hall immediately recruited several great talents, such as Guoyuan, Sima Lang, Hua Xin, and Li Tong, who is more famous among generals!
Sima Lang's name is Boda. When you hear his name, do you think of anything?Yes, he is the elder brother of the great conspirator Sima Yi, known as Sima Boda in "Sima Bada"!However, Sima Lang's talent is much worse than Sima Yi's. His personality is very similar to Cui Yan. Although he is very talented, he is arrogant and even a little pedantic!
Guoyuan is also a remarkable figure. He is a disciple of Zheng Xuan, a great Confucian in the late Han Dynasty, and Zheng Kangcheng. He seldom praises people, but anyone he praises is a rare talent in the world, at least better than Liu Bei's talent!

I don't need to say more about Hua Xin, he is a well-known talent, and together with Guan Ning and Bing Yuan under my command, he is called a dragon.Since Hua Xin can be friends with Guan Ning and Bing Yuan, his talent is unquestionable.Of course, if it's because the few of them lived close together since childhood, it's another story.

Cao was very happy to get these great talents, and he was happiest when he got Hua Xin.Cao has always wanted to compete with me, but he can't compare with me.Later, when I established an imperial court in Luoyang, he investigated the information of all civil servants and generals under my command, especially the ministers and ministers!The results of the investigation disappointed Cao, because all the people under my command are loyal and loyal, and even friends have their own circles.But this circle is not Cao Nengjin's.

When Cao was about to give up in disappointment, he found a person, and this person was Hua Xin!Cao found him because he saw that Guan Ning and Bing used to have the nicknames of dragon head and dragon body, but a dragon has a head and a body, so how can it not have a tail?So Cao ordered people to investigate Guan Ning and Bing Yuan's deeds, and finally let him discover Hua Xin, the dragon's tail!
Cao sent people to contact Hua Xin several times, but Hua Xin always rejected Cao on the grounds that the imperial appointment had not been changed, and Cao naturally would not give up just like that.When Sun Ce attacked Yuzhang, Cao sent people to contact Hua Xin.Hua Xin knew that he was no match for Sun Ce, and was about to surrender to Sun Ce when Cao's men arrived.In the end, Sun Ce did get Yuzhang, but Hua Xin went to Xuchang under Cao's arrangement!
