Most men have great ambitions. Liu Qi heard that all the four counties in Jingnan have sincerely surrendered to him. This was something that his father had never done before.
In addition to wanting to enjoy the glory of each county, the main reason is that Jiangxia is currently depressed and boring, and may also be the main battlefield for a decisive battle with Cao Cao.
If you can sneak away first, let Liu Bei handle the war.
After Liu Qi left Jiangxia, there were only five core people left in the Taishou Mansion: Liu Bei, Guan Yu, Zhuge Liang, Xu Shu, and Lan Tian.
In front of everyone, Zhuge Liang explained the two-pronged operation of the two of them. On the surface, Liu Bei was relying on Zhao Fan in Jingnan. Even though he had recently captured the empty shell of Jiangxia, he was still very weak. This is called "on the surface". To show weakness; secretly Lantian, under the guise of Liu Qi, secretly controlled all the four counties in Jingnan for Liu Bei. This is called secretly seeking strength.
"You are such a show of weakness on the surface but seeking strength secretly. Kong Ming, you even hid it from my lord and me. No wonder you rejected my several suggestions to take Changsha." Although Xu Shu clapped his hands to blame, he had no complaints in his heart.
Zhuge Liang smiled bitterly and said: "Ziyu said that only by deceiving himself can he deceive outsiders. Liang had no choice but to do it. Brother Wang Yuanzhi Haihan."
Lantian bowed his hands in embarrassment, and Xu Shu joked: "Well, it turns out to be cunning Ziyu. If you don't develop a few delicious dishes, our relationship will be settled."
"How dare you disobey the military advisor's orders?" Lan Tian agreed.
Zhuge Liang walked between the two of them and smiled: "Is this beam Yuan Zhi made for Yide? Hahaha..."
Everyone laughed after hearing this. Liu Bei saw that the advisers were enjoying themselves and said happily: "With the help of all the princes, why worry about the uncertainty of the matter?"
"My lord, since Ziyu has taken Wuling and Changsha, you can send people to set up defenses along the Yangtze River..." Xu Shu suggested.
"No, my lord only has 10,000 naval troops. He cannot compete with Cao Cao alone. Sun Quan's Jiangdong naval forces are extremely elite. They must join forces with them to fight against Cao Cao to have any chance of victory." Zhuge Liang argued.
"Are you going to ask Sun Quan? Ziyu, what do you think?" Liu Bei asked when Lan Tian didn't speak.
Lan Tian walked to the sand table and analyzed: "Cao Cao is currently stationed in Xiangyang and Jiangling. Although he has hundreds of thousands of cavalry under his command, they are blocked by the natural chasm of the Yangtze River.
Now that Cao Cao has few ships but many people, he is like a clever woman who has rice but no pot. He will definitely seize the time to supervise the construction of navy and warships, and threaten Sun Quan and others with letters so that they will not be able to send troops to fight against Cao for a short time.
When the Jingzhou Navy is completed, Cao Cao will go down the river. Whether it is us or Sun Quan, we can decide in one battle. "
"Ziyu's words were immediately enlightening. No wonder Cao Cao was stationed in Jiangling but was not in a hurry to cross the river or move eastward." Guan Yu's patrol boats cruised the Yangtze River every day, so he had such a sigh.
Liu Bei nodded, "Ziyu's analysis of the general situation has always been extremely accurate. It seems that we must send envoys to Wu as soon as possible."
"Sun Zhongmou also has scholars under his command. Please wait patiently, my lord, there will be a reply soon," Zhuge Liang said.
"What about Wuling and Changsha..." Liu Bei hesitated.
Lan Tian suggested: "Yide can be sent to Wuling to replace Gao Boping. Changsha can send civil servants to 'assist' Han Xuan. In addition, Liu Pan's general Huang Zhongyi is brave and can be of great use."
Liu Bei was deeply moved when he saw Lan Tian's complete selflessness and said, "Just as Zi Yu said, I asked Yide and Zizhong (Mi Zhu) to go to Wuling, and Wei Shuo (Liu Yan) to Changsha to 'assist' Han Taishou. For such a great contribution, Beidu doesn’t know how to reward him.”
After hearing this, Lan Tian quickly waved his hand and said: "The plan of light and darkness that the military advisor just said cannot be exposed yet, otherwise it will be very troublesome for Sun Zhongmou to know about it in the future. The relationship between my brother-in-law and I must still be kept secret from the outside world."
From the time when they planned to take Lingling, Lantian and Zhuge Liang made a plan of both light and dark lines. Because of Lantian's close relationship with Liu Bei, they could not publicize it to the outside world. In addition, Lantian was particularly low-key, so except for Liu Bei's main generals, outsiders Most people don't know their relationship.
After Lan Tian followed Liu Qi to Quanling, he also took the initiative to claim that he was Liu Qi's confidant brought from Xiangyang. This method of confusing the public had a good effect, and even Liu Qi himself was willing to believe this rumor.
Liu Bei is keeping a low profile in Guiyang. If he behaves too conspicuously, not only will Liu Biao be afraid of him, but even Sun Quan of Jiangdong will be wary of him.
Lan Tian remembers a line in the TV series "Kangxi Dynasty": Ao Bai always strives for strength, while Bambul shows weakness everywhere.
Let Liu Bei learn from Bambull and show weakness, and he can only be obeisance to Liu Qi, so that he can confuse everyone.
Just when everyone was discussing the military situation and exchanging greetings, Mi Zhu walked into the hall with a pale face.
Upon seeing this, Liu Bei said: "Zizhong came at the right time. I had planned to go to Chen County to summon you. Ziyu has just taken Wuling and needs you and Yide to manage it together."
"Wei, I wonder if I can take up my post at a later date?" Mi Zhu asked for instructions.
"I see that Zizhong's face is not good. Could it be that he is suffering from some health problem? You can ask Zhang Zhongjing for diagnosis and treatment." Liu Bei said seriously.
Mi Zhu shook his head and sobbed: "Lord, my little sister went there last night..." At this time KenSH*UF*anG .com Zhang Si
Mi Zhen was born into a wealthy family, and her health was never as good as that of Gan Qian. Her eldest daughter, Liu Shu, became even more frail during the new wild life. Later, when she came to Chen County, she couldn't adapt to the climate and became ill. Fortunately, Zhang Ji helped her to live longer. He only managed to survive for a few years.
Liu Bei was startled when he heard this, and then he sighed: "Madam, she has been ill in bed for a long time, and now she is relieved. Zizhong must refrain from mourning and accept the change..."
Zhuge Liang, Xu Shu and others came to persuade Mi Zhu to mourn. Lan Tian was too embarrassed to say anything, so he just nodded to him slightly and then walked out of the hall with Guan Yu.
Looking at the surging Yangtze River water in the distance, Lantian couldn't help but sigh: "I really hate the water as long as I grow in life..."
"Every time Ziyu makes a shocking statement, if we weren't all busy with our own affairs, I really want to ask my eldest brother to transfer you to Jiangxia. Now I really miss my days in Xinye." Guan Yu shook his head.
"General Guan, can the Jiangxia navy completely block the ships on the river?" Lan Tian suddenly asked.
"The Yangtze River waterway is wide, and people shuttle back and forth in small boats every day. If you want to completely block it, maybe it can be done during war." Guan Yu answered truthfully.
Lan Tian nodded. He calculated that it had been more than ten days since Cao Cao occupied Jiangling. The threatening letter to Sun Quan should have been delivered, right?
Guan Yu saw that Lan Tian was thoughtful. He was wondering if what he said just now meant something. Could it be that he wanted me to strengthen sentries along the river to prevent small movements in various places?
These scheming guys like to play riddles, Xu Shu is like this, Zhuge Liang is like this, Lan Tian is like this, Guan Yu laments that the third brother and eldest brother are still the real ones.
Cao Cao swept across the land of Jingxiang. Although Sun Quan was far away in Jiangdong, he was paying attention all the time. Control the big one, control the owl
Sun Quan was an extremely insecure monarch. Although he had a fighting spirit in his bones, the experiences of his father and brother made him wary, so he often went out to hunt and release his wild nature.
Now there is a letter on his desk, which is thirty words written by Cao Cao himself: Those who are close to me will be punished, Jing Hui points south, Liu Cong restrains his hands. Now there are 800,000 soldiers in charge of the water. Fang and the general will join forces to hunt in Wu.
Cao Cao's letter shocked the officials in Jiangdong. Even before a fight, someone in his family wanted to surrender? Do these people treat me like a child, Liu Cong?
Sun Quan: I have shot a tiger before.
