The Warriors of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 196: Talented People Shine

Of course, Dongfang Sheng can't say that Yuan Shao will defeat Gongsun Zan, annex Qingzhou, Bingzhou, and Youzhou, gather the power of the four states to confront Cao Cao, and finally Cao Cao will defeat Yuan Shao and then unify the north.

For a while, no one dared to respond to his sharpness. Dongfang Sheng didn't know if he could stop it, but he always wanted to leave himself a way out first. Jingzhou was undoubtedly a good choice.

Chen Shen frowned and thought for a while, then suddenly said in surprise: "Could it be that you want to avoid disaster?"

There were frequent wars in the north, and although there were conquests in the south, the overall situation was relatively stable, and the areas of Jingzhou and Nanyang were indeed relatively stable, so Sun Hao was able to last a little longer later, which was the capital left by his father.

"The southerners are not good at fighting, and there are Baiyue barbarians who are not a place to open up the frontier, so they can only defend it." Chen Shen said with a smile, "As for Huaisi's elite soldiers, if you can recruit Huaisi's elite soldiers to establish a foothold in Jingzhou, you can give it a try. It's just that although Liu Biao lacks courage, he is also a member of the royal family, so it may not be easy to seize Jingzhou."

Liu Bei was able to win Yizhou after taking Jingzhou because he had the title of emperor uncle, but what about Dongfang Sheng?Even if Liu Bei took these places, he still couldn't fully digest them. This was one of the main reasons for the collapse of the Shu Kingdom in the later period.

These two people, Liu Biao and Liu Zhang, basically belonged to the existence of big dragons in the novel, but in fact they were not dragons. It should be said that Liu Bei succeeded in capturing Jingzhou after Liu Biao died, and it was because of Liu Biao's accident. It was easier for Liu Bei to surrender to Cao Cao.

Liu Biao received a good Confucian education when he was young. He participated in the imperial student movement and was known as one of the "Eight Talents" ("Zhang Fan Han Ji" said: Biao and fellow county people Zhang Yin, Xue Yu, Wang Fang, Xuan Jing, Gong Chu [Xu] Gong, Liu Zhi, and Tian Lin are the eight friends, or they are called the eight Gu.

During his stay in Jingzhou, Liu Biao acted with kindness and power, seduced well, cleared thousands of miles, and the people were satisfied.He also opened classics and established studies, loved the people and supported scholars, and took care of himself.Yuan Shao was far away, Zhang Xiu was close, and Liu Bei was inside. The base was thousands of miles away, with more than [-] armors. He ruled Jingjiang, first killed Sun Jian, and then often resisted Cao Cao.

It can be said that Liu Biao is not an incompetent person, and Liu Biao is also Zhuge Liang's uncle, because Zhuge Liang's father-in-law Huang Chengyan married Liu Biao's wife's sister.

He was not a native of Jingzhou, so he might not be able to secure his position as a shepherd in Jingzhou simply by relying on his status as an emperor and a celebrity.

There are many wealthy families in Jingzhou. Liu Biao relied on Kuaiyue and the Cai family to get the support of other local wealthy families, and further established his prestige and became the lord of Jingzhou. This is by no means a simple figure.

"Dushi is willing to serve the Lord!" Chen Shen suddenly fell to the ground in his eyes, and Dongfang Sheng quickly helped Chen Shen up.

"Why is Dushi so?" Dongfang Sheng still didn't understand the situation at this moment. A moment ago, Chen Shen was still discussing with himself the impossibility of going to the south, so at this moment, he suddenly wanted to work for him?The turn was too sharp.

Chen Shen glanced at Dongfang Sheng and laughed, "Du Shi only asks for one thing, if the lord agrees, Du Shi will give this life to the lord!"

"Oh, let's hear it." Dongfang Sheng frowned and said, "There is a story."

"If my lord captures Xuzhou in the future, can you kill Chen Gui for me!" Chen Shen said through gritted teeth.

"Can!"

Dongfang Sheng agreed without hesitation. He had never heard of this Chen Gui, and he was not a very powerful figure in his presumption.

"What is the relationship between my lord and those Black Mountain bandits?" Chen Shen immediately entered his role, a counselor, "The Black Mountain bandit Zhang Yan has millions of troops under his command. If it wasn't for today's change, I am afraid he would not have the opportunity to completely control the Black Mountain bandits." , now, Yuan Benchu ​​is also difficult to fight against."

"My lord needs to make friends with him more."

Dongfang Sheng asked tentatively, "Can I..."

"No." Chen Shen said without waiting for Dongfang Sheng to finish speaking, "Although the lord occupies Bohai County now, his foundation is not solid, let alone his strength is not strong, and the lord is still working under Cao Cao, how can Zhang Yan be like that? The rebellious and rebellious person who serves for the lord?"

Dongfang Sheng sighed and said, "I know it too, but it's a pity that time doesn't wait for me."

"Your Majesty, you can consider quitting and go to Jingzhou or Nanyang. This matter needs to be prepared early."

When Dongfang Sheng heard Chen Shen talk about going to the south, he suddenly became energetic: "Where does Dushi think I should go?"

"In my opinion, my lord should not go to Jingzhou or Nanyang, let alone Jiaozhi!" Chen Shen stood with his hands behind his back and said, "Jingzhou has Liu Biao, and Nanyang has Yuan Shu, the fourth generation and third prince, and Jiaozhi has Shixie, who will guard one's foundation. , only...Yizhou is the best place for the Lord."

Yizhou is the site of Liu Yan, a descendant of Liu Yu (the fifth son of Emperor Han Jing) in the Western Han Dynasty. Liu Yan had died of illness at this time, and his son Liu Zhang took over the position smoothly.

Speaking of Chen Shen, Dongfang Sheng also felt that Yizhou was the easiest place to get at this time. Historically, Liu Zhang was cowardly and suspicious, and he lost Yizhou because of a bad move and welcomed Liu Bei in. However, This is not because he is incompetent, but because the counselors under him turned back and led to his failure.

Of course, Dongfang Sheng didn't know that it was not easy for Liu Bei to seize Yizhou in history. He fought for three years, and Fengchu Pangtong died. All this shows that Liu Zhang is not a worthless guy.

However, judging from the current situation, it is really unreliable for Dongfang Sheng to seize other places at this time. Only Yizhou seems to have such a possibility, and Hanzhong in Yizhou is a good place. If Cao Cao hadn't lost the territory that Cao Cao wanted back then, if Hanzhong was acquired by Cao Cao back then, Liu Bei might not have anything to do with the three-point world.

Speaking of this time, in history, Liu Yan's two sons conspired to murder Li Jue and the others and were killed. Liu Yan fell ill and died because of the pain of losing his son, but because of the appearance of Dongfang Sheng, Li Jue and the others disappeared, but Liu Yan Still dead.

Of course, the foundation of Liu Zhang who just took over as Yizhou Mu is not stable. There are Zhao Wei, Shen Mi, Lou Fa, Gan Ning and others who are ambitious, especially Zhao Wei. It can also be regarded as a veteran.

Under such circumstances, Liu Zhang only has the Dongzhou soldiers left to him by his father Liu Yan as capital, which is really precarious.

Dongfang Sheng has already begun to plan to rely on Yizhou to develop himself in his heart, and he has even begun to look forward to a better life in the future. Most of Yizhou is within the territory of Sichuan in later generations. Sichuan is known as the "Land of Abundance". .
