Emperor Road of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 471 Progress
Liu Yu's plan, vague and vague, has long been brewing in his mind.Of course, no matter how early it was, it was after Liu Qi became the Lord of Jingzhou.

It turned out that Liu Yu had already felt it.If he captures Jingzhou, neither Yuan Shang nor Cao Cao will sit still.In other words, they couldn't let him take Jingzhou smoothly.

Fortunately for Jingzhou, Cao Cao is far away, and Yuan Shang has two brothers to restrain him, so at most Liu Yu will spend a lot of effort.But Liu Yu didn't want to spend too much effort, and at this moment, Liu Ye approached him again, using Liu Qi to easily capture Jingzhou.

In this way, Liu Yucai did not force himself, but seized Jingzhou by controlling Liu Qi.Originally, by capturing Jingzhou, Liu Yu could kick Liu Qi away.But Jingzhou was unstable at that time, so Liu Yu was not in a hurry to kick Liu Qi away, but continued to use Liu Qi to pacify Jingzhou.

During this period, Liu Yu got acquainted with Zhang Song and had an idea of ​​Xishu.Then, Xu Shu's words woke him up, letting him know that seizing Xishu was a means to deal with Cao Cao.However, if he clearly seized Xishu, then there would be no way to deal with Cao Cao.

In addition, if it is clear, he still needs to kick Liu Qi away and truly take over Jingzhou.But in that case, Jingzhou will definitely be in turmoil, and the turmoil is enough to make him lose the opportunity to make progress.Moreover, if he really takes over Jingzhou, Cao Cao will definitely speed up the speed of seizing the Central Plains, and Yuan Shang will definitely turn his attention to him.

It was based on this situation that Liu Yu had an idea, thinking that Li Daitao was stiff, and pushed Liu Qi to the front, letting him share the pressure for him.

In fact, this method is absolutely impossible.Just imagine that Liu Qi's rise will definitely conflict with Liu Yu, after all, the two sides are in the same territory.In this way, both Cao Cao and Yuan Shang want Liu Qi and Liu Yu to restrain each other.In other words, they would not care too much about Liu Yu, or even indulge Liu Yu.And this is exactly what Liu Yu wanted.

Therefore, Liu Yu "let go" Liu Qi and did not kick him away.As for preventing Liu Qi from killing each other, it's not easy, just a few words from Liu Ye will do.

To be honest, although Liu Qi is the lord of Jingzhou, Jingzhou is actually controlled by Liu Yu's people.Liu Ye, Chen Dao, Li Yan...etc, there are not a few of them.

This strategy succeeded, and Cao Cao and Yuan Shang really relaxed their vigilance. Cao Cao focused on capturing the north, and Yuan Shang focused on dealing with his brothers.

At this time, Liu Yu made a move.

In fact, at the beginning, he just wanted Jingzhou to seize Xishu.But after discussing with the advisers, I found that it might not be appropriate to let Jingzhou attack Xishu, because at that time he would have a chance to attack Jingzhou.Naturally, he couldn't do it, but wouldn't he be furious if he didn't do it?
It should be known that Cao Cao and Yuan Shang did not believe Liu Yunian and his brotherhood, so they did not seize Jingzhou.Ever since, Liu Yu came up with such a plan, Liu Qi attacked Xishu, and he attacked Xuzhou.

In this way, no one will doubt it.Not only that, but he can also take the opportunity to seize Xuzhou and prepare for the future march, why not do it?
Tian Feng made a bit of a mess during this period, if it wasn't for Pang Tong, he wouldn't be able to remember it for a while.But when Pang Tong reminded him, he couldn't take it lightly.No, he asked excitedly.

Pang Tong didn't hide anything, and said directly: "Zi Yang sent a letter, saying that he has persuaded Liu Qi, and now he is waiting for the young master to write a letter to Zhang Song."

"Okay, I'll write right away." Liu Yu's face brightened, and he laughed loudly, "Haha, if Ziyang succeeds, half of the country will belong to me, Liu Yu. At that time, you can go to the Central Plains if you advance, and you can defend the South of the Yangtze River if you retreat. Can be expected, great things can be expected!"

At the thought of capturing Western Shu, Liu Yu couldn't help but get excited, and even imagined that he was sitting on half of the country.

Just when Liu Yu was excited, Pang Tong suddenly said: "My lord, there is one more thing, I don't know whether it is good or bad."

"Oh, what's the matter?" Liu Yuzheng was so excited that he didn't understand the meaning of Pang Tong's words, and then asked.

But Pang Tong's face was serious, and he said: "Zhuge Liang joined Liu Qi, this matter makes Tong very puzzled."

Liu Yu didn't listen to the second half of the sentence at all, because after only hearing the first half of the sentence, Liu Yu opened his eyes and said in disbelief: "What, Zhuge Liang is seeking refuge with Liu Qi?"

Pang Tong smiled wryly, knowing that Zhuge Liang took refuge in Liu Qi, it would definitely be a disaster for them.But he also knew Zhuge Liang's character, and knew that the other party would never turn to a mediocre master, and Liu Qi was just such a mediocre master.Therefore, he was puzzled.

"My lord, you don't need to worry. Kong Ming definitely doesn't like Liu Qi. From my point of view, there must be something wrong with it." Although Pang Tong was puzzled, he was confident that he knew Zhuge Liang, so he patted his chest and vowed.

When Liu Yu heard it, he felt that what Pang Tong said was correct, and it was useless to worry about it, so he stopped thinking about it.He didn't think about Zhuge Liang's affairs, so he put his mind on the matter of taking Xishu again.He was still a little worried about Zhuge Liang, so when he wrote to Zhang Song, he couldn't help but want to find someone to help Liu Ye, and then... he thought of someone.

Thinking of that person, Liu Yu's eyes lit up.That person is definitely not simple, even Zhuge Liang may not necessarily be better than him in marching and fighting.In history, he did not die, Liu Bei took him with him in every battle, but Zhuge Liang was in the rear.

Somewhat impatient, he immediately wrote a letter to Zhang Song, and then specially drafted a letter for Zhang Song to secretly give to that person.Now, he can only do so much, and he doesn't know if that person will work for him.

This is Liu Yu belittling himself. With Liu Yu's current power, few people in the world can refuse his invitation, especially civil servants and generals with ambitions.And that person is an aspiring counselor.

After writing the letter to Zhang Song, Liu Yu pondered for a moment, and then said to Pang Tong: "I'd better write a letter to ask, because I haven't figured out what happened to Zhuge Liang, and I still have no idea."

Pang Tong also knew Zhuge Liang's ability. To be honest, he was a little uncertain, so he didn't object to Liu Yu's writing.However, he suggested otherwise: "Young master, why not write a letter to Huang Chengyan, this person is the father-in-law of Kong Ming..."

"It's unnecessary, as if I'm afraid of Zhuge Liang." Before Pang Tong finished speaking, Liu Yu had already refused, "How about this, Shi Yuan, you can write a letter back."

Liu Yu didn't say this, but Pang Tong knew what Liu Yu meant, and he was nothing more than persuading those old guys, using their mouths to persuade Zhuge Liang.This lord, he is obviously jealous of Kong Ming in his heart, but he refuses to admit it.

Although Pang Tong snickered in his heart, he still agreed to Liu Yu.In this way, the matter about Jingzhou was decided between the two of them talking and laughing.

Of course, the two of them couldn't be free, because apart from the Jingzhou matter, there were still many things to do.
