Sanguo: Banzi Shengtian, you call him Yanque?

Chapter 22 Since the Lord doesn’t want to be a villain, then I, Wolong, will do it!

The movements of Liu Qi and Zhou Yu were soon known to Cao Cao. He had already sent people to these two places and kept delivering news to him.

And after issuing the order that day, he gave Xu Chu the right to search for details about Jiangdong. Now that the situation in Jingzhou is turbulent, it is normal for spies not to deliver news for a few days, so they are not afraid of being discovered by Zhou Yu.

"Haha, as expected, they all started to take action. Ye Fan's strategy is really impeccable. I admire this fire-headed soldier more and more."

Cao Cao was extremely excited and in a good mood.

All strategies are being carried out steadily, and now it seems that winning this fight is only a matter of time.

After Xun You heard the news, he thought for a moment and then came to Cao Cao.

"My lord, although Liu Biao is on the verge of death now, as long as he is not dead, accidents may occur. Cai Hao and Zhang Yun still haven't been able to calm down. I think it is necessary to help them."

Cao Cao narrowed his eyes and asked, "How can we help them?"

Xun You smiled slightly: "My lord, you can go to the emperor and appoint Liu Cong to take over the post of Jingzhou Mu and command the nine counties of Jingzhou and Xiangzhou. At that time, as long as we have Liu Cong, Cai Mao and Zhang Yun under control, we will be able to control Jingzhou."

Smart people don't need to be too full of words. When Liu Cong becomes Jingzhou Shepherd, Liu Biao will be useless. Cai Hao and Zhang Yun will not keep this old guy in the way.

Cao Cao also laughed: "Yes, it's time to help them, Xun You, I'll leave this matter to you."

……

Between a mountain road, Liu Bei and others were passing quickly. During this period, Cao Jun never gave up chasing them. Now most of the people in Xinye have been separated.

Even Liu Bei's five thousand soldiers lost a lot, which made Liu Bei very sad.

They also knew something about what happened in Xiangyang City, but their news came much later than anywhere else. After all, they were still running for their lives.

At this time, their news was still at the time when Liu Biao was critically ill. This news made Zhuge Liang and others very worried, for fear that something would happen again.

After all, Liu Beijun couldn't stand the trouble at this time.

"My lord, my subordinates still suggest that after entering Jiangxia, we should take advantage of the situation and take Jiangxia City. Mr. Liu Qi will agree to it. When we were in Xinye, I saw that Mr. Liu Qi had no ambition."

Zhuge Liang came to Liu Bei's side and said slowly.

Along the way, he mentioned this matter several times, but Liu Bei refused.

This time was no exception. Liu Bei shook his head and said: "Under such circumstances, it is already a great kindness to dare to confront Cao Jun and take us in. How can I bear to take Jiangxia again?"

"Besides, Liu Jingsheng is very good to me and gave us a foothold in Jingzhou. I can't bear to do anything inappropriate to his son."

"Kong Ming, I know you are doing it for my own good, but I, Liu Bei, will not do anything unkind and unjust, and you should not mention it again in the future."

Zhuge Liang sighed and could only nod his head and said: "My lord, I understand."

But at this moment, Mi Zhu, a counselor in Liu Bei's army, suddenly hurried to Liu Bei's side, his expression looking a little panicked.

"Sorry, my lord, Liu Biao...died of illness!"

When Liu Bei heard this, he suddenly looked sad: "Brother Jingsheng, why did you leave so suddenly?"

Thinking of the previous scenes in Jingzhou, he felt even more sad.

After a while, he calmed down and bowed in the direction of Xiangyang. Seeing this, Mi Zhu stepped forward and continued: "My lord, there is one more thing, that is, Liu Qi has already left for Xiangyang."

Liu Bei didn't notice anything, but Zhuge Liang's expression changed.

"not good!"

Liu Bei was confused and asked: "Kong Ming, what's wrong?"

Zhuge Liang sighed: "Master Liu Qi will be in trouble if he leaves Jiangxia under the current circumstances!"

"Ah? How is this possible?" Liu Bei was also surprised.

Zhuge Liang said quickly: "Originally, the Cai family in Jingzhou regarded Mr. Liu Qi as a thorn in their side. Now that Liu Jingsheng has passed away, the Cai family will definitely support Liu Cong with all his strength. If Liu Qi goes back at this time, he will really fall into a trap."

Liu Bei sighed: "Well, there is nothing we can do about it. If he doesn't go back, wouldn't he become an unfaithful and unfilial person?"

Zhuge Liang nodded slowly: "My lord, the only plan for now is to enter Jiangxia quickly, otherwise not only Master Liu Qi, but also us will be in danger."

Liu Bei nodded. He trusted Zhuge Liang very much. Seeing Zhuge Liang's nervous look, he knew he couldn't delay.

"Give me the order to speed up the march. We must enter Jiangxia City as soon as possible!"

Although most of the people have been separated, without the drag of the people, Liu Bei's army marched much faster. This is one of the reasons why Cao Jun never caught up with them.

At this time, Zhuge Liang was worried, and he naturally saw more than others, so he called Guan Yu and Zhang Fei aside, but avoided Liu Bei.

"Two generals, now that we are at the point of life and death, we must do some extraordinary things, but my lord is benevolent and unwilling to do anything treacherous, so there are some things that only we can do!"

Because of the previous defeat of Cao Jun in Xinye, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were also very convinced of Zhuge Liang. When they heard what he said, they both nodded.

Zhang Fei immediately patted his chest and said, "If the military advisor has something to do, just give it to me. I, Zhang Fei, will never be vague!"

Zhuge Liang nodded and said: "Our situation is very critical now. The most urgent thing is to find a place to stand. Living under others and owning your own territory are two completely different things."

"So after entering Jiangxia this time, we must control Jiangxia in our own hands so that we can resist the subsequent changes in the situation!"

"Otherwise, let alone resisting Cao's army, we won't even have a foothold, and we will only die!"

The meaning is very obvious, that is, let them seize Jiangxia. Although this matter is a bit unreasonable, Liu Beijun now has no other way out.

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei hesitated for a moment, then nodded and agreed. They didn't want to be chased around like bereaved dogs.

"Don't worry, military advisor, my two brothers will definitely act according to the military advisor's instructions!"

Zhuge Liang felt relieved now: "My lord is kind and unwilling to be a bad person, so let me, Zhuge Liang, be the evil person!"

On Liu Bei's side, Zhuge Liang has already discussed a strategy with Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, and will be able to implement it when he enters Jiangxia.

Zhuge Liang saw it very clearly. If Liu Qi returned to Xiangyang, he would definitely escape death. No matter who made the decision in Jiangxia, it would be impossible for him to treat them the same way Liu Qi did.

Therefore, capturing Jiangxia is their only way.
