The Three Kingdoms: A vicious plan was offered, and Liu Bei was stunned!

Chapter 410: Prime Minister Cao's essay on Liu Bei, Luo Gongqi's army crossed the river at night
While everyone was speculating what had happened, Luo Yuan received the news.

It turned out to be Lao Cao’s short composition.

Xu Shu hurried to Luo Yuan and whispered that Cao Cao had issued a manifesto to fight rebellion, saying that Liu Bei had made only a little contribution to the Han Dynasty, but now he had usurped a high position and became the prime minister by giving money to the emperor.

Liu Bei must have coerced the emperor, so the emperor had no choice but to ask all the princes in the world who still considered themselves as subjects to attack Liu.

Lao Cao said that in his opinion, Liu Bei might be another Dong Zhuo. For the sake of the people of the world and for the sake of peace, he decided to attack Liu Bei. He hoped that everyone would take the initiative to draw a clear line with Liu Bei, otherwise when he led his army south, no one would end up well.

Lao Cao's manifesto also mentioned some rumors about Liu Bei's childhood.

It is said that when Liu Bei was a child, there was a big mulberry tree at the door of his house, so people boasted that he would become a noble in the future.

The big mulberry tree is like an emperor's canopy.

So Liu Bei is a traitor, he has been a traitor since he was a child.

If your mulberry tree is bigger, you would dare to say that it is a canopy.

If you are not a traitor, then who is?

Lao Cao, representing the King of Wei of the Han Dynasty, wants to destroy Liu Bei.

"Cao Mengde chose to release the manifesto today. This... was well prepared."

When everyone looked at each other, they knew that Cao Cao was deliberately targeting Liu Bei, and he now fell out with Liu Bei.

The war in Jingzhou is about to begin.

Luo Yuan looked at the short composition and thought, wow, Cao Cao is quite particular. It’s disgusting that Liu Bei even came up with a short composition.

Luo Yuan naturally didn't care, but this thing still had an impact on the gentry.

As soon as Cao Cao's essay arrived, the gentry began to choose sides.

Xu Shu said: "My Lord, the war in Jingzhou has begun. Let's go."

Liu Bei was very busy now, and certainly had no time to deal with guests. Luo Yuan decided to leave, and smiled to Xu Shu: "Meng De must have picked the right time."

As he spoke, Luo Yuan glanced at Jia Xu, who smiled slightly.

Jia Xu thought to himself that he knew about this matter, but could he just talk about it casually?

Cao Cao just wanted to disgust Liu Bei.

Boss Cao is a man who knows how to have fun.

Originally, Liu Bei could have been the center of attention today, but with what Cao Cao did, all the limelight was stolen from him.

"Meng De is still good at playing."

Jia Xu bowed slightly and said, "The King of Wei has issued a proclamation to suppress the rebellion. I also need to go and prepare. Please excuse me first."

Jia Xu wanted to go back and make some arrangements for Liu Bei. After all, Cao Cao was pretty good to him.

Luo Yuan smiled bitterly and said, "I think you should just give up and stop messing around. Let Uncle Liu go back to Jiangxia."

Jia Xu shook his head. He had to do something, otherwise how could he explain to Cao Cao.

Cao Cao will come back later.

It's ok to do nothing.

Luo Yuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and Liu Bei was so angry that he didn't know what to do.

But he couldn't do anything about it, so he said goodbye to Jia Xu and then took his own things back to the military commander's residence.

Everyone knows that there will be a war, but no one knows when it will start. But now Lao Cao has written a short essay. Everything has begun.

Luo Yuan is about to start.

Generals such as Xu Shu, Pang Tong, Gan Ning and others were called back.

Luo Yuan first mentioned Han Xuan. He was his target. As soon as Cao Cao left, Han Xuan ran back to Changsha and began to impose heavy taxes.

Han Yong also kept sending people to contact Luo Yuan.

"It is obvious that the Changsha nobles now want to kill Han Xuan." Xu Shu found all the recent intelligence from Changsha and showed it to everyone.

"Within ten days, Han Xuan killed five noble families in order to plunder money and food. He also ordered his men to rob noble caravans on the trade routes and even robbed a batch of goods from Jiangdong." Luo Yuan was surprised. Xu Shu was the one who sorted out the intelligence. "Why didn't I hear you say this before?"

Xu Shu said: "Why does my lord need to know this information? It's enough to know it now."

It’s nothing more than what Han Xuan did in Changsha. It doesn’t matter whether to say it or not. Just tell Luo Yuan the important news.

These little things are just used to add some humor to everyone.

There was a lot of trade between Jiangdong and Jiangling. Previously, Sun Quan had issued an order not to allow the gentry to move around, so many gentry changed their route to Changsha in order to come to Jiangling.

This gave Han Xuan the opportunity to rob.

Those people must be dead!

"Sun Quan knew about it a long time ago, but he didn't do anything. But now that Cao Cao has issued a manifesto, Sun Quan must stabilize the internal situation first." Pang Tong said, "My lord, don't forget that Zhao Yun is still with Han Xuan. You should make use of him."

"What do you think, Shi Yuan?"

Luo Yuan is not in a hurry, he has made all the necessary arrangements!

Pang Tong laughed and said, "We should be careful that Liu Bei will use Han Xuan's head to curry favor with Jiangdong!"

Liu Bei is now being opposed by Cao Cao and is in urgent need of external aid. His external aid naturally comes from Jiangdong. Han Xuan has a conflict with Jiangdong, and Zhao Yun is with Han Xuan.

Xu Shu was surprised and asked, "Could it be that Kong Ming had already predicted this day?"

How is that possible.

Kong Ming had planned to ask Zhao Yun to help Han Xuan a long time ago, and Luo Yuan didn't believe that Kong Ming had planned it until today.

Pang Tong thought about it and said, "Kong Ming might also want to kill Han Xuan, so he made arrangements in advance and waited for the opportunity."

Just want to try it!
It’s good to have an opportunity, but it doesn’t matter if there is no opportunity.

Help Han Xuan with something and you can sell it for a good price.

This possibility is the greatest.

Luo Yuan also felt that this was the case. Kong Ming would not do a business that would lose money.

Now that the situation has changed, Zhao Yun's opportunity has come.

Thinking about it, Kong Ming is still very scary!
Luo Yuan waved his hand and said, "Let's not talk about Kong Ming. Let's talk about us. The army to take Changsha is ready and will cross the river tonight."

Huang Zhong and Gan Ning nodded quickly; they couldn't wait any longer.

Now we are finally going to set out.

Luo Yuan asked them to lead the army and let Wen Pin stay in Jiangling. Then, looking at Pang Tong who was ready to make a move, Luo Yuan nodded and said, "Shi Yuan will be the military advisor."

The three of them immediately obeyed the order.

Afterwards, Luo Yuan made some arrangements and there would be no problem in attacking Changsha.

It would certainly take some time to capture Changsha after the troops are sent out. Luo Yuan would be satisfied if the war could be ended within a month.

He had just arranged for Kong Ming and Liu Bei to visit Luo Yuan together, and Luo Yuan went to meet them.

The two of them came to say goodbye to Luo Yuan before returning to Jiangxia!
"Cao Cao is heading south, so we have to go back. Please take care!" Kong Ming said politely.
Liu Bei also followed suit and bowed. He was not in a good mood at the moment. Just when he was at the peak of his career, Cao Cao wrote a short essay.

There's no way I can be happy.

He is now anxious to go back and prepare for battle.

Seeing that they were all anxious, Luo Yuan gave up trying to keep them and sent Kong Ming and Liu Bei away. Within a few days, all the princes in Jiangling returned home, and Sun Quan went home after Liu Bei left.

The departure of the princes did not affect the prosperity of Jiangling.

Instead, it made Jiangling even more lively. In order to escape the war, a large number of nobles rushed to Jiangling.

Jiangling has become a good place for the gentry in Jingzhou to take refuge.

Everyone believed that Luo Yuan could protect them. No matter how chaotic the fighting was outside, it would be good as long as Jiangling remained in peace.
