Three Kingdoms: The Guan Family's Rebellious Son, Long Blessing Jing Xiang

Chapter 37

In the morning light, the huge city gate was closed, like a dormant giant beast, and there were gatekeepers standing on both sides.

Because it was too early, the street was extremely quiet.

But overnight, the entire Jiangling City was pasted with government announcements, and this announcement caused a thousand waves of waves in an instant.

Countless people went out after hearing the news, and stood at the announcement place one by one, and those who could read were reciting the content of the announcement aloud.

such a big deal.

Jiangdong's envoy Zhugejin naturally got the news immediately, and also came to the crowd, looking out.

Zhuge Ke had already squeezed into the first row, and he looked at the announcement seriously.

A man dressed as a scribe read for everyone, "Han and thieves are not in conflict, and the king's industry is not partial to peace... The Sun-Liu Alliance was originally working together to fight against the Cao thieves, but recently due to the ownership of Jingzhou, the Sun-Liu Alliance had frequent friction. To avoid gaps in the alliance, the two sides negotiated to reach an agreement."

"...General Zuo of Han Dynasty, Marquis of Ting of Yicheng, Leader Yuzhou Mu, Emperor Shu Liu Bei; Prosper in Hanzhong."

"It is hereby agreed that for a period of one year, if the ruler of the Eastern Wu Kingdom conquers the Han bandits in the north and captures a county in Hefei, Guan Yu, the general of the bandits, will fulfill the agreement of 'Xiangshui as the boundary'. From then on, the three counties of Jiangxia, Guiyang, and Changsha will belong to Jiangdong. In one year, the ruler of Soochow will not be able to capture Hefei, and the covenant of Xiangshui as the boundary will be abolished on the spot. After that, Jingzhou will have nothing to do with Soochow! We hereby inform the people of Jingzhou."

After reading this long paragraph, a commoner patted his head, and Monk Zhang Er was a little confused.

"Jiangxia, Guiyang, and Changsha armies, why did they come back and let them go? What does that mean?"

An old man next to him answered the question: "It's a long story. In the 13th year of Jian'an, Cao Cao was hit hard in the Battle of Chibi by the Sun-Liu Alliance. So far, the seven counties of Jingzhou have been divided up by Uncle Liu, Marquis Wu and Cao Bandit."

"Cao Thief occupies the largest Nanyang County in the north of Jingzhou and Jiangxia County north of the Yangtze River. Marquis Wu gets Jiangxia County south of the Yangtze River and most of Nanjun. Uncle Liu Huang gets Nanjun south of the Yangtze River and Changsha, Lingling, The four counties of Guiyang and Wuling."

"After the battle of Nanjun, Cao's troops retreated to Xiang and Fan. Zhou Yu, the governor of Jiangdong, led the governor of Nanjun, and distributed the southern part of Nanjun to Uncle Liu Huang. Uncle Liu sent troops to the public security. Later, the governor of Zhou died of illness. Borrow Jingzhou."

"Wu Hou didn't want to borrow it, but with the support of Lu Su, the new governor of Jiangdong, he still lent Nanjun to Uncle Liu. So far... Uncle Liu has a complete Nanjun, resisting Cao Cao in the north, and thus conquered Yizhou!"

Speaking of this, the old man paused, stroked his beard, and continued: "Since Uncle Liu Huang entered Shu, there have been rumors that Jiangdong sent envoys to Bashu to take back the borrowed land of Jingzhou. "Xiangshui is the boundary" and divided Jiangxia, Guiyang, and Changsha into Soochow, but our Guan Gong refused to admit it and refused to hand over the three counties to Jiangdong. This matter spread in Jiangdong. After that... it is It's announced!"

No wonder the old man described it meticulously.

Liu Bei's borrowing of Jingzhou has long been spread in Jingzhou and Jiangdong, and it is not difficult for interested people to find out.

However, there are not many people who know as much as this old man.

It was Zhuge Jin, who looked at the notice and listened to the old man's narration, and felt that he had fallen into an indescribable confusion.

what's the situation?
What's happening here?
After he came to Jiangling, he met Guan Yu once, and was almost ordered to "exit the guest" by Guan Yu's sharp words.

Have the two sides talked?
Have you reached any contract?

Zhuge Jin was at a loss.

But on this notice...

What is "both parties negotiated"?What is "reaching an agreement"?
Haven't talked about it yet, reached an agreement with a hammer?
Subconsciously, Zhuge Jin felt that this announcement was fake, from words to sentences to content...it was all fake, outrageously fake!
However, the printed ribbon at the bottom of the announcement is extremely clear.

——The seal of General Dangkou.

——Han Shouting Hou Yin.

—— Guan Gongyin.

It can be said that whether it is granted by Liu Bei, granted by the emperor, or recognized by the Guan family army, Guan Yu's three seals are quite a few.

That is to say, this announcement is not a child's nonsense, it is true, it is true!
The surrounding discussion was one after another.

A scribe shook his head, "Doesn't this mean that for a period of one year, it depends on whether Jiangdong can win Hefei."

"If it can be taken down, the agreement on the demarcation of the Xiangshui River is valid, and the three counties of Changsha, Guiyang, and Jiangxia will be given to Jiangdong. If not, then the ownership of Jingzhou will be completely settled in the future, and there will be no such thing as 'borrowing' Jingzhou from Uncle Liu Huang. "

This scribe deliberately emphasized the word "borrow" in his words.

And it is this word, which is the core and key of this notice...and even the Sun-Liu alliance.

A girl asked: "Then, can Jiangdong conquer Hefei?"

Needless to say, as soon as this question was raised, it immediately aroused extensive discussions.

"Isn't Cao Cao's main force in Hanzhong? Then Hefei is isolated and helpless? If it can't be defeated, then Jiangdong is too weak, right?"

"It's hard to say. I heard that the Cao Ying generals stationed in Hefei are Zhang Liao and Zhang Wenyuan. I'm afraid you have forgotten the battle of Bailangshan in the 12th year of Jian'an, right? I heard from the merchants in the north that Wenyuan was crazy in that battle!"

"So what if you're crazy? It's hard for a clever woman to cook without rice. No matter how powerful Zhang Wenyuan is, can such a small man stop the invasion of Soochow with the power of the whole country? I'm afraid you don't know it. Recently, the Marquis of Wu has been building Ye has assembled a hundred thousand soldiers and horses, and is ready to go north to Hefei at any time!"

For a while, the discussion on whether Jiangdong could win Hefei intensified.

The issue of ownership of the three counties of Changsha, Guiyang, and Jiangxia has also become the focus of discussion among the people of Jiangling.

The more Zhuge Jin looked at it, the more frightened he was, and he gritted his teeth.

After all, he has a good temper, but at this moment, it is inevitable that his brows are full of anger.

He said fiercely: "This is... Is this bullying me, Jiangdong Nobody?"

Zhuge Jin wished he could intercept the notice and tell everyone that he was the Jiangdong envoy, and he had never discussed with Guan Yu, let alone reached such an agreement.

Unexpectedly, his son Zhuge Ke grabbed him before he had an attack.

Zhuge Ke said in a low voice: "Father...this announcement has been announced to Jiangling, and everyone knows it. This is a great joy for me in Jiangdong!"

Well…

Zhuge Jin looked at his son Zhuge Ke suspiciously.

Zhuge Ke smiled sweetly, he still kept his voice down, but his tone couldn't stop throbbing. "My child has already understood that the Zhuge family is the one who has outstanding talents and meritorious deeds covering a whole country, and won the three counties in the east of Xiangshui River!"

This…

Zhuge Jin was even more confused. For a moment, he even felt that not only did he not understand the "notice" from Jiangling City.

Even... even his son couldn't see through it!

and many more?

Keer mean?

Under this notice, does he have the idea to go to Jiangxia, Changsha, and Guiyang?
...
