"Master Liu Qi may not be killed. He has no military power and no support from the gentry. Instead, he can be used as a tool for our army."

"But Liu Cong must be killed!"

"why"

"Master, can you still remember Xuzhou Chen Deng?"

"This......"

Of course Liu Bei remembered that the Chen family was... the big clan who secretly controlled Xuzhou, and he was... he was thrown out of Xuzhou by Chen Deng.

Of course, Liu Bei wasn't the only one who played with the Chen family. Lu Bu was also played with by Chen Deng and his son, and they were applauded.

"Naturally remember."

"Since the lord remembers the matter of Chen Deng in Xuzhou, then this Liu Cong can't be kept!"

"Is there any relationship between the two?"

"Master Tingliang slowly explained to the master..."

See no "It's Cai's and Kuai's"

"Yes, if the lord wants to enter Jingzhou, it is impossible without the support of the aristocratic family. The Cai clan and the Kuai clan, the lord must think about it!"

Zhuge Liang said to Liu Bei cautiously.

"My lord, please imagine, if Liu Cong is here, then the Cai clan will definitely stand with Liu Cong. Even if the lord temporarily occupies Jingzhou, they will support Liu Cong again sooner or later."

"Liu Cong is the son of Liu Biao, and he has the support of the Cai family, so it is only natural that he can ascend to the position of state shepherd."

"At that time, the Cai clan and Liu Cong will raise their troops, and they will have great righteousness. Even if the lord can quell the rebellion, there will be heavy losses."

As Zhuge Liang spoke, Liu Bei nodded, like a chicken pecking at rice.

"And as long as Liu Cong is there, not only the Cai clan will definitely support Liu Cong, but another aristocratic family, the Kuai clan, will stand with the Cai clan as a matter of course."

"Compared with the lord, Liu Cong is easier to control. The existence of the lord affects the interests of the Kuai clan and the Cai clan!"

"So Liu Cong, the hub of communication between the Cai clan and the Kuai clan, the lord must kill him!"

Liu Bei was silent, and after a long time he said, "But if you kill Liu Cong as soon as you enter Jingzhou, you will probably be in the name of losing benevolence and virtue."

"Master, don't worry, this matter can be solved with a little trick."

Zhuge Liang fanned his feather fan and smiled, using his strategy to get rid of a Liu Cong, isn't that a matter of hand? "Well..."

Liu Bei nodded, and he continued: "Kong Ming, there is one more thing to do.

"Master, please speak."

"Even if Liu Cong dies, the Kuai clan may not hold us, and if this happens, the Cai clan will definitely hate us. Wouldn't the Cai clan and the Kuai clan join hands to deal with us instead?"

"My lord is worrying too much."

Zhuge Liang shook his head, Liu Bei's worries were indeed justified, but since he could propose to kill Liu Cong, there was a natural solution.

"My lord, the reason why the Cai clan and Kuai clan can come together is... the connection of interests. Such an alliance is not strong at all."

"As long as the master uses greater interests to attract the Kuai Clan, it will naturally make the Cai Clan, who hates the master, unable to support him alone."

"Oh Kongming, based on what you see, what kind of benefits should we give the Kuai Clan?"

"With them, share the Cai family equally!"

Zhuge Liang came up with a shocking plan.

"Equally divide the Cai family!"

"good."

"The Cai family is the largest clan in Jingzhou. It has private land for hundreds of miles. The family members act as officials in Jingzhou.

"The lord only needs to unite with the Kuai clan and eat the Cai clan together with the Kuai clan. The lord will naturally be able to fill the warehouse, and the Kuai clan will naturally support the lord."

"This is even more: seconds!"

Liu Bei was excited. With Zhuge Liang's strategy, he would definitely be able to secure a place in Jingzhou! Although there were no two brothers, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, when he thought of the size of Jingzhou, Liu Bei felt that it was worth it without two brothers. "My lord, before entering Jingzhou, my lord still needs to make some preparations."

"What to prepare"

"Let Jingzhou be in complete chaos!"

"This... how to do it"

"My lord, Gong Du is the leader of Runan's Yellow Turbans, and he is very powerful among the remaining Yellow Turbans."

━━━━ Chapter 374

--------------------------

Liu Bei remembered that Gong Du, who had taken refuge in himself, had a good subordinate and was a capable army.

Liu Bei was still very satisfied with Gong Du, the yellow turban that delivered charcoal in the snow.

"Yes, Liang heard that although Liu Biao has ruled Jingzhou for many years, the wealth of Jingzhou is concentrated in Xiangyang and Jiangling, and the area is barren, and Jingzhou also has many yellow scarves hiding in the mountains."

"As long as Gong Du secretly sends someone to contact these... Yellow Turbans, and promises to let these Yellow Turban thieves attack Cai's property, the lord just needs to wait for the opportunity."
