Abnormal Three Kingdoms

Chapter 683 Jingzhou changed hands
Jingzhou, Jiangling.

Cai Mao, Kuai Liang, Kuai Yue, and Zhang Yun came to Liu Bei's mansion aggressively. Liu Bei's behavior was a bit wrong in the past two days. First, he let Chen Dao go to Shaxian, and then sent someone to seize the state mausoleum arbitrarily. military power.

These two places seem inconspicuous, but the military power in Jiangling was also completely controlled by Wenpin and others. Zhang Yun was taken away by Liu Bei on the grounds of ineffective combat. All this happened in one day. What did he want to do?
"General, don't go in!" Two of Liu Bei's personal guards blocked the way of Cai Mao and his party.

"Go away!" Cai Mao snorted coldly, slapped the guards away, and broke into Liu Bei's mansion directly. Just as he was about to say something, Guan Yu turned his head and looked at them indifferently.

"Guan... why is General Guan back?" Seeing Guan Yu's gaze on his face, Cai Mao, who was originally aggressive, suddenly weakened, and the muscles on his face tried his best to pull an ugly smile.

"Come in." Guan Yu didn't answer, but just moved his body and signaled Cai Mao and others to enter.

Cai Mao and his party, who were clamoring to see Liu Bei just now, stopped in their footsteps, as if they suddenly remembered something at home and wanted to leave.

"Please!" Guan Yu stretched out his hand and looked at everyone.

I don't know if it was a problem with the light, but the Qinglong Yanyue Knife in his hand lit up the moment he said please.

Hongmen Banquet?
A thought arose in everyone's mind at the same time, didn't Liu Bei want to take them all together?

He wanted to refuse, but looking at Guan Yu's eyes, he couldn't say what he refused, so he could only nod with a wry smile, and entered the main hall one by one under Guan Yu's gaze.

In the main hall, Liu Bei was talking with Zhuge Liang, Meng Jian, Shi Tao and others. Beside him, Le Jin, Wenpin, Liu Pan, Liu Hu and others stood on both sides. Seeing them coming in, Liu Bei got up and said with a smile: "Everyone is here, and I have something important to discuss with you."

Seeing Liu Bei like this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief and sat down one after another. Cai Mao glanced at Guan Yu, then frowned and said to Liu Bei, "Master, why are General Guan and General Le back? Could it be that Xiangyang City has been breached?"

Liu Bei shook his head and said, "What I'm going to say to you today is not the matter. Do you know the struggle between heaven and man?"

Cai Mao frowned and nodded, the book The Struggle Between Heaven and Man is very popular, it is not banned as strictly in Jingzhou as it is in Jiangdong, and everyone knows the contents.

"Three days ago, I was invited by Sun Quan to go to Jiangdong to discuss matters. I didn't want to be plotted by Sun Quan, who took my dragon energy, opened the gate of heaven, and summoned the heavenly soldiers and horses to descend!" Liu Bei said solemnly.

"My lord, is this... Heavenly Court real?" Cai Mao and the others looked at Liu Bei. Although everyone had some guesses about the existence of Heavenly Court because of the book The Struggle Between Heaven and Man, they actually had doubts about its authenticity. It's doubtful. You can't say that you, Chu Nan, distributed a book casually, and I will treat the contents of the book as true, right?

From their point of view, this dispute between heaven and man was nothing but Chu Nan's attempt to discredit Sun Quan.

"It's true, and the things mentioned in the battle between heaven and man are also true. We have confirmed this point." Liu Bei nodded solemnly and said: "Sun Quan colluded with the heavenly court to seek the luck of our human race. Rong amnesty is to prepare for discussion with everyone, give up the alliance with Jiangdong, and unite with the prime minister of Chu to seek rape!"

"My lord! Why didn't you discuss this matter with us!?" Kuai Liang noticed something, looked at Liu Bei and frowned.

Liu Bei has controlled Zhou Ling and Sha Xian in the past few days, obviously for this matter, and the other party has never thought of discussing with them.

"This matter is indeed a mistake of preparation!" Liu Bei laughed: "Only speaking, Sun Quan disregarded the interests of the human race, colluded with the heavenly court, and plotted to take away the luck of our human race. Putting it to death, I think this result, no matter what, is not too much, what do you think?"

Cai Hao frowned and wanted to say something, but was pulled back by Kuai Yue himself, Kuai Liang smiled and said: "Of course not too much, I will take revenge for my lord."

"To show our sincerity, Xiangyang has been surrendered. In a few days, the imperial court will come to take over the counties." Liu Bei said with emotion: "What do you think?"

Cai Mao was furious and wanted to explode, but was held back by Kuai Yue. Kuai Liang smiled and said: "Of course, it should be like this. If there is nothing else, I will take my leave first."

After speaking, he wanted to leave, but when he turned his head, the light in front of his eyes dimmed, and Guan Yu was blocking the door, watching them indifferently.

Kuai Yue felt his scalp tingling, looked at Guan Yu and asked, "Can General Guan give way?"

"Brother has not finished speaking, where are you going?" Guan Yu asked indifferently.

Faced with Guan Yu's oppressive feeling, everyone had no choice but to look back at Liu Bei: "I don't know what else I want to order, my lord?"

Liu Bei looked at Meng Jian, and Meng Jian said with a smile: "In order to facilitate the implementation of the new policy, the imperial court issued an order that those with a family property of more than [-] mu must move their family to Xuchang. Your family members should be on the way now, and everyone is ready to go. .”

Not slaughtering Jingxiang scholars is the biggest discount that Liu Bei has won for Jingxiang scholars. It cannot be said that as long as the New Deal is implemented, such things will not be massacred, because everyone knows that even if the gentry do not know how to resist, as long as these people are still there In Jingzhou, Chu Nan will be punished.

Liu Bei has been in Jingzhou for several years, and he has some feelings for Jingzhou scholars. In addition, after all, he is his subordinate, calling himself a lord. Before leaving, Liu Bei still wants to do something for them.

Therefore, under Zhuge Liang's suggestion, all Jingzhou scholars were moved to Xuchang. As long as these people leave Jingzhou, they will no longer be able to have any influence on the New Deal. This is the only way to save their lives. It is said that the big clans in front of us, even those at the level of the three elders in the village, are likely to be slaughtered directly.

Wherever Chu Nan went, no grass grew among scholars, this is no joke.

"Liu Xuande, don't bully people too much!" Cai Mao broke away from Kuai Yue's hand, looked at Liu Bei and cursed angrily: "Don't forget, how did you become the lord of Jingzhou!?"

Kuai Yue was helpless, looked at Liu Bei and sighed: "Since the emperor's uncle became the lord of Jingzhou, I have been conscientious in waiting for the emperor's uncle. I have never shown any disrespect, and the emperor's uncle will not think of any affection?"

Meng Jian sighed, looked at the crowd and said: "Everyone, the only thing my lord can do is to save your lives. If you don't move to Xuchang, what you will lose is not your house, but the lives of the nine clans. But remember the disaster in Runan back then?" no?"

When Chu Nan entered Runan, the villagers rebelled and killed soldiers!Villagers scuffle, kill warriors!Villagers leave their hometowns and kill soldiers!It is precisely under this high-pressure policy that Runan went up to a powerful party, down to the local clan, Lizheng, and Sanlao, and was almost wiped out. If Liu Bei only cared about himself, then Jingzhou would be the next Runan, and all the soldiers in Jingzhou People, I am afraid that they will not escape the disaster of massacre!
"You want to surrender that Chunan, it is your business, this Jingzhou is not yours, why do you drag me to surrender together!?" Cai Mao shouted angrily.

Liu Bei said indifferently: "If you go, if you want to fight against the imperial court, you have to unite with Jiangdong. I know you will definitely take this road. For you, the righteousness of the human race is not as good as your own interests, right?"

Cai Mao snorted coldly and didn't refute. This is indeed his idea. The righteousness of the human race is too imaginary. Besides, even according to the dispute between people that day, didn't the former emperor of Zhou also serve the heaven?I don't see any problems in the world. Thinking about these things is pure mediocrity!

Seeing their reaction, Liu Bei knew what they were thinking, shook his head and sighed: "It's about the future of our human race, I'm afraid you can't let you be independent in this matter, so you should be ashamed of you, but Xuchang, you must go, the court has already gone I have sent the list to the prime minister for those with more than a thousand acres of land, and I have sent the list to Xuchang, at least your lives can be saved, and it is better to be a rich man than to die!"

Kuai Yue's body was full of green energy, but at the next moment, formation patterns suddenly appeared under his feet, Zhuge Liang said indifferently: "You must not use any supernatural powers here!"

Unusual skills and the strength of generals themselves are not supernatural powers.

In an instant, all the supernatural powers of Kuai Liang, Kuai Yue and others failed. Cai Mao glared at Zhuge Liang and said, "Kong Ming is not your hermit in the mountains, why bother to come out to find trouble!?"

"Under the catastrophe, the future of the human race is worrying. Liang wants to be a hermit, but he doesn't know where to go to hide." Zhuge Liang sighed, and saluted Cai Mao: "Forgive me!"

The leaders of the Jingzhou gentry, just like this, prepared Liu Bei for a pot, tied up all of them, and sent them to Xuchang. The people in Chunan also took over the cities as Liu Bei said, and the important towns such as Jiangling and Xiangyang were taken. With big families like the Kuai family and the Cai family in charge of the overall situation, although there are many Jingxiang gentry, they are indeed scattered and unable to resist the signs of the imperial court.

According to the list provided by Liu Bei, Chu Nan sent generals from all walks of life to invite people. Almost all the rich and powerful families in Jingzhou were captured. Those who escaped by chance did not dare to stay in Jingzhou, and moved their families to Jiangdong or It was the land of Shu, and at the same time, the officials who had been prepared by the Ministry of Officials quickly took over and began to take advantage of this winter to implement the New Deal. Chu Nan also took the land of Jingzhou at the fastest speed, and quickly refined the luck of Jingzhou.

The main force of southern Chu also arrived in Jiangling on the second day after Liu Bei captured Kuai Yue and others. After arriving in Jiangling, Chu Nan immediately ordered Zhang Liao to attack Xiakou, and Huang Zhong led his troops to move to Xiakou to cooperate with Zhang Liao to expel Cheng Pu. department.

Cheng Pu originally wanted to entangle Zhang Liao with the help of the navy battle formation, but Guan Yu led the Jingzhou navy to go south, and Xiao Baijiao led the water tribe to harass the Jiangdong navy. Abandoning Xiakou, the army retreated to Chaisang.

Jingzhou's surrender to Chunan is a big event. Cheng Pu doesn't know why this happened, but the current situation is obviously extremely unfavorable to Sun Quan. He must inform Sun Quan of this matter as soon as possible and discuss countermeasures. If Jingnan is completely occupied by Chunan, The great river moat will lose most of its effect. When the time comes, the water and land in the south of Chu will advance together, and it will be difficult for Jiangdong to stop it!
