The Jagged Cavalry of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 531 530 Jingzhou Changes Owner (2)

Sima Yi was writing a secret letter to Zhang Yan in the government office when Zhou Yuncong suddenly walked in from the outside and told Sima Yi, "Military Master, Kuai Yue and Kuai Liang are here."

"Oh? What are they doing here?" Sima Yi asked.

Zhou Yuncong shook his head and said, "I don't know, but judging by the faces of the two of them, they don't look very good-looking. Could it be that they are looking for trouble?"

Sima Yi smiled: "Liu Biao is dead. Liu Qi has no interest in the two brothers. They had a deep relationship with Cai Mao before. After Cai Mao lost power, they started to make trouble again. The interests of these two brothers have always been only their own. If it wasn't for me, Liu Qi would have ordered their brothers to be arrested. But no matter what, one of the two brothers is not driving, and the other is in control. It is not polite to keep them out. You just bring them in Well, leave the rest to me to deal with."

Zhou Yuncong nodded and walked out of the hall.At this time, Zhou Yuncong no longer appeared in front of Sima Yi as a housekeeper, but as Sima Yi's confidant. He also restored his original appearance and removed his disguise, so that he was able to come and go freely among the crowd.

Not long after, Zhou Yuncong came in with two brothers, Kuai Yue and Kuai Liang. When Kuai Yue and Kuai Liang saw Sima Yi, they respectfully said, "See you, General!"

Although they are respectful on the surface, in fact, both of them have great complaints in their hearts.Sima Yi is not only young, but also has an unknown origin, but such a person has become Liu Qi's main adviser. Liu Qi is even more obedient to Sima Yi. The real power, all the power, has been taken away by the general Sima Yi.

The reason why Liu Biao won Jingzhou was due to the two brothers Kuai Liang and Kuai Yue, and they were often Liu Biao's guests when Liu Biao was in power. After returning to Xiangyang City, it was like a different person.

Afterwards, Liu Biao resigned and Liu Qi took over, and then Liu Qi handed over all the power to Sima Yi. The two brothers Kuai Liang and Kuai Yue became decorations. Any government orders of Liu Qi and Sima Yi would not be issued through their two brothers. , so that the two brothers feel chilling.

At this moment, Sima Yi saw the two brothers Kuai Yue and Kuai Liang standing in front of him, and immediately said: "It turns out that the two adults are here, please sit down!"

After Kuai Yue and Kuai Liang sat down, Sima Yi kept writing with a pen. He wrote a secret letter eloquently, and then called Zhou Yuncong to come in and handed the secret letter to Zhou Yuncong. In front of the two brothers Kuai Yue and Kuai Liang, Sima Yi said loudly: "This letter must be handed over to His Royal Highness King Yan personally!" same as existence.

Zhou Yuncong was stunned for a moment, but seeing that Sima Yi's eyes were blazing, and he didn't seem to be slipping his tongue, he said "here", turned and left the hall.

The two brothers Kuai Yue and Kuai Liang were shocked when they heard what Sima Yi said just now. Sima Yi took the initiative to write a letter to Yan Wang Zhang Yan. What is the reason for this?Could it be that there is some connection between Sima Yi and King Yan?

Sima Yi saw Kuai Yue and Kuai Liang's thoughtful expressions, so he laughed and said, "My lords, are you thinking about what I wrote in the letter?"

Kuai Yue said: "Sima Yi, you actually colluded with the King of Yan and conspired to rebel?"

Sima Yi said: "If I wanted to collude, I would have done so long ago. Why wait until now? My lords, I know what you are here for. Do you want to question me why I transferred the army outside at this time? Instead of using it to defend Xiangyang City?"

Kuai Yue said: "Exactly! Nanyang has been occupied now, and the enemy army is watching the border. If you move your troops away at this time, aren't you creating an opportunity for the enemy to attack Xiangyang City?"

Kuai Liang continued to talk, and asked: "As a military adviser and general, you are deeply trusted by the lord, how can you do such a thing. Also, what happened to the letter you just sent to King Yan?"

"Don't be impatient, my lords. The letter I just sent was just a letter of appeal for peace, and it was not without purpose that I dispatched troops out of the city, because Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were already on their way to seek refuge with Sun Quan in Jiangdong. If Guan Yu , Zhang Fei has arrived in Chaisang, Zhou Yu will definitely send troops to Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, and take advantage of the turmoil in Jingzhou to swallow up the territory. It is no longer a day or two for the Jiangdong Sun family to covet Jingzhou. If Jiangdong really sends an army Entering Jingzhou, we will lose a large area of ​​land. In order to conquer the Central Plains, the former lord transferred away almost all the troops that could be transferred, but he was defeated in the end, and the troops in other places were weak. Now Jingzhou is in turmoil. As a neighbor , Jiangdong will definitely not miss this opportunity, so I transferred the army out, Chen Bing is in Jiangxia and Changsha, in order to defend Jiangdong's army." Sima Yi explained.

The two brothers Kuai Yue and Kuai Liang looked at each other and felt that what Sima Yi said was very reasonable, but they were still a little worried and asked, "Will Zhang Yan agree to the peace letter you wrote?"

"In recent years, Zhang Yan has expanded a lot of land, and it will take a long time to digest it. Our army is also seriously injured and needs time to recover. I have already informed my lord, and I am going to give him some property as a peace negotiation. In this way, we will no longer have to worry about the enemy forces in the north, but will focus all our attention on Jiangdong. The Sun family in Jiangdong is a lying tiger. Once awakened, the consequences will be unimaginable. Jingzhou is the site of the Four Wars. Liu Zhang in Yizhou in the west is a self-defense man, and there is nothing to worry about. Shixie in Jiaozhou in the south has no strength to fight us. If the peace talks in the north are successful, then our only enemy is Jiangdong. Now, as long as Jiangdong is contained, he can be trapped there, so that this tiger will never wake up. Jingzhou is the key to the rise of this tiger, and Jiangdong's army must not be allowed to step into Jingzhou." Sima Yi said .

The doubts in Kuai Yue and Kuai Liang's minds dissipated a lot, but facing Sima Yi's foresight, they still felt a little incomparable. At least such a young Sima Yi could see Jiangdong's threat, but the two of them were No feeling at all.

Perhaps, this is the difference between Kuai Yue and Kuai Liang brothers and Sima Yi, and it is precisely because of today's incident that Kuai Yue and Kuai Liang brothers feel that Jingzhou may become more prosperous and powerful under Sima Yi's hands.

Next, Sima Yi talked a lot with brothers Kuai Yue and Kuai Liang. Basically, Sima Yi was not ashamed to ask his subordinates and asked Kuai Yue and Kuai Liang for advice on governing the country.In this regard, the two brothers Kuai Yue and Kuai Liang made great achievements, so they also had many good suggestions. Sima Yi adopted many suggestions from Kuai Yue and Kuai Liang brothers.

Gradually, the relationship between the three people has drawn a lot closer.

The Kuai brothers are a well-known family in the local area, and they are also very prestigious in the local area. When Liu Biao came to Jingzhou, it was thanks to the Kuai brothers' ingenuity and their super high connections. Although Liu Biao has passed away, Sima Yi For the Kuai brothers, we should make good use of their talents.

After all, the two brothers are indeed talented people, but their performance between Liu Biao and Cai Mao can only fully explain their way of maximizing the interests of the family, that is, both sides are friendly and neither side can offend , no matter which side takes power, they will still be reused.

The Kuai brothers came to cater to Sima Yi precisely because they had such thoughts. After all, Sima Yi is in power now. If they don't make friends with him, the Kuai family will gradually decline.

Sima Yi also saw clearly the power of the Kuai brothers' ability to be both right and left, and he could also know that the Kuai brothers were only making choices to protect their own interests.They are using each other now. He wants to use Kuai Yue and Kuai Liang to increase his influence in Jingzhou, while Kuai Yue and Kuai Liang use Sima Yi to gain their due status.

……

Jiangxia County, Qichun County.

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei came all the way from Lvlin Mountain, protecting Liu Bei's family members along the way. After a long journey, they finally arrived at Qichun County, one step closer to Chaisang.

Thirteen war horses and more than 20 carriages constituted the entire convoy. Zhang Fei walked at the front of the team with Zhang Ba Snake Spear horizontally, Guan Yu walked at the back of the team holding the Qinglong Yanyue Saber, and the remaining eleven horses The horses were scattered on the two wings of the convoy.In the carriage were not only Liu Bei's family members, but also Guan Yu's and Zhang Fei's family members. A group of people walked over like this. Although they were filled with grief and indignation, none of them shed a single tear. Their hearts were full of hatred. They want to turn this hatred into strength, and then seek revenge from Liu Qi in Xiangyang and Zhang Xiu in Nanyang.

But before taking revenge, they must leave Jingzhou as soon as possible, because Liu Qi issued an order to kill Liu Bei from the nine clans, including Guan Yu and Zhang Fei.

Liu Bei died, leaving only a thirteen or fourteen-year-old orphan girl, and his only son died when he was three years old. From then on, Liu Bei was heartbroken and never had another child.However, Liu Bei at this time is not without a future, because his wife is pregnant again, but he doesn't know if it is a man or a woman.

Before Liu Bei went out to fight, his wife didn't tell Liu Bei, fearing that Liu Bei would be worried and could not fight wholeheartedly.But who ever thought that Liu Bei's departure turned out to be a farewell to his family.

Guan Yu walked at the back of the team, followed by a handsome young man. The young man is 12 years old this year. His name is Guan Ping. He is the eldest son of Guan Yu. .

On the carriage in front of Guan Ping, two teenagers poked their heads out of the windows, the one on the left was called Guan Xing, and the one on the right was called Zhang Bao.

Zhang Bao is Zhang Fei's son, nine years old this year, and Guan Xing is Guan Yu's second son, eight years old this year.

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei only told the adults about Liu Bei's death, but didn't tell the children, fearing that they would not be able to bear the blow, they only said that they were going to Chaisang to have a round with Liu Bei, and they didn't tell the rest.

Guan Yu walked at the back, turning his head and looking back from time to time. Behind him, there were always a dozen followers. Those people were scouts. Because they were afraid of Guan Yu's martial arts, they didn't dare to approach them. They could only follow them from a distance and pay attention to them. every move.

"Guan Ping!" Guan Yu suddenly reined in his horse and shouted at Guan Ping beside him.

"Father, what are your orders?" Guan Ping clasped his fists and asked.

"You leave here with the convoy first, I have something to deal with for my father!" Guan Yu said lightly.

Guan Ping asked suspiciously: "Father, are you going to wipe your butt again?"

Guan Yu smiled without answering, and said to Guan Ping, "Be obedient, get out of here quickly!"

Guan Ping nodded, rode his horse and left, then turned to Guan Yu and said, "Father, be careful, we will wait for you in front!"

Guan Yu smiled at Guan Ping, then waved his hand, and the distance between Guan Ping and Guan Ping was getting farther and farther.

Guan Yu immediately swung his saber, turned his horse's head, and stood in the middle of the road, motionless, but his pair of red phoenix eyes shot out, scanning the woods on both sides of the road behind him.

"Come out!" Suddenly, Guan Yu shouted to the opposite side.
