Unparalleled Huaxiong of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 431 Liu Yao's Messenger

"Currently, the number of prefectures and counties under our jurisdiction has reached as many as nine prefectures. The people in all prefectures have made up their minds. It is not appropriate to go to war right now, but I don't want to sit back and watch Sun Ce become bigger. Please give me your opinions."

After Hua Xiong finished speaking, Tian Feng took the lead and said: "The general's plan to send Yuan Shu to the south of the Yangtze River is very good. Isn't it appropriate to use Yuan Shu to compete with that Sun Ce?"

Hua Xiong waved his hand: "Gaolu is indeed a move, but for him, he can defend the city for a short time. If it takes a long time, he will definitely lose."

Tian Feng brushed his chin and fell into deep thought. At this time, Guo Jia said: "General, if Mr. Yuan is wrong, why don't you support the other one?"

Hua Xiong asked in a deep voice, "Who?"

"Liu Zhengli."

"Through Liu Zhengli and Yuan Gong, Sun Ce's strength is controlled in Jianye. In this county alone, Sun Ce can't make any waves."

Hua Xiong still frowned, thought for a long time and said, "Feng Xiao, it seems that you still don't know enough about Sun Ce. Let me tell you that the biggest threat to me right now is not Liu Biao or Liu Yan, but Liu Bei. And this Sun Ce!"

"Sun Ce is assisted by Zhou Yu, and occupies a dangerous point in Jiangdong. If he is allowed to gain a firm foothold, it will be difficult for us to march south in the future."

"Yuan Gonglu and Liu Zhengli can only argue with Sun Ce in Yangzhou. It is absolutely impossible for them to restrain Sun Ce."

Guo Jia was not familiar with Sun Ce. He was staring at the map of Jingyang on the table in a daze when he heard what Hua Xiong said. He pointed his finger in the direction of Jingzhou. Just as he was about to speak, Li Ru said first:
"Maybe that's the case, General. Didn't Liu Biao always want to go back to Jiangxia? We don't give him Jiangxia, but give him Chaisang. Chaisang is richer than Jiangxia. This exchange can be said to be an advantage for Liu Biao, and he will never refuse." promise."

Ju Shou frowned and said: "But our army has finally crossed the Yangtze River and occupied a city on the opposite side of the river. If Chaisang is handed over to Liu Biao, how to cross the river for the Southern Expedition will still be a problem."

Hua Xiong shook his head secretly in his heart. What Li Ru said was absolutely unacceptable. Li Ru had never been to the south of the Yangtze River. He didn't know that Chaisang's geographical location was special. Hua Xiong said at the moment:

"Chai Sang is located at the mouth of the Three Rivers. It controls one area and governs the three rivers. Once such a battleground is in our hands, it can no longer be handed over."

Hua Xiong's words established the bottom line of Jiangnan's strategy. For a while, several people lowered their heads and fell into deep thought. After a while, Hua Xiong asked Jia Xu by name: "Wenhe, don't be bored. If you have an idea, come up quickly." .”

Jia Xu, who had been resting with his eyes closed, opened his eyes, cupped his hands towards Hua Xiong, looked at Guo Jia and said, "General, Feng Xiao seems to have an idea again, why don't you ask Feng Xiao to talk about it first?"

Hua Xiong turned his head to look at Guo Jia, and seeing that Guo Jia really seemed to know everything by heart, meeting Hua Xiong's eyes, Guo Jia first asked: "The general really thinks that Sun Bofu has something to do with it?" The appearance of his father?"

Hua Xiong nodded and said: "Sun Bofu is quite like his father, even slightly better than him."

Guo Jia showed a sly smile: "Okay, since that's the case, let's hunt this young Jiangdong tiger."

Guo Jia stood up from his seat, holding a wine vase in his hand, came to the center of the hall, and said slowly and confidently:

"My plan is to encircle and suppress Sun Ce with the five-way army. The first two lines are Yuan Gonglu and Liu Zhengli. We secretly use Yuan Gonglu to support Liu Zhengli, so that these two people can form a flanking attack on Jianye's Sun Ce, but we support Liu Zhengli with conditions. Yes, let him hand over Luling County, and then, our Liu Yao territory will win over Liu Biao."

"The third route is General Li Bao, who is currently training the navy on the Yangtze River. General Li Bao's navy has formed an army for two or three months. Isn't it time for actual combat? Let Li Bao's navy drag Sun Ce on the river. sailor."

"The fourth route is Liu Biao's Jingzhou Army. As Tingwei said just now, we have taken Liu Biao's Jiangxia, and we must give them something in return. In Yuzhang County, we only need Chaisang, and give him everything else, even the ones in the south. Luling can also be given to him, but if Liu Biao doesn’t want it, then we can accept Luling County by ourselves.”

"As for the last road, my lord can send a team of people to sneak into Jiangdong secretly to create a rift between the Shanyue people and Sun Ce. The Shanyue people are not kind to each other. There are many conflicts. The Shanyue people themselves will go to trouble Sun Ce. .”

After Guo Jia finished speaking, several people fell into a brief silence. After a long time, Jia Xu opened his eyes and said two words: "Great talent."

After a while, Mao Xiang, who had been idle recently, was handed over by Hua Xiong. After some instructions, Mao Xiang led three thousand brocade guards and quietly left Yecheng, and galloped towards Yangzhou in the south of the Yangtze River. The first Jinyiwei commander in history to do the kind of job of sowing discord, in Hua Xiong's words, is to leave professional things to professional people.

A few days later, Wujun, Yangzhou

Since Liu Yao escaped from Jianye, he settled down in Wu County, regrouped, recruited the old troops, and was always ready to take back Jianye. On this day, a special envoy came to Wu County and found Liu Yao.

Liu Yao hurried to the front hall to meet the envoy. At this time, the envoy was wearing a large bamboo hat, as if he was afraid that others would recognize his appearance.

"You're finally here!"

When he saw this man, Liu Yao seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, and asked him, "Where are your people these days? Where are the soldiers and horses you promised to give me?"

The man raised his head slightly and said to Liu Yao: "Yangzhou Mu, the purpose of my coming here today is to inform you with regret that we can no longer cooperate with you."

"Um?!"

Liu Yao first felt angry, but when he rolled his eyes, he seemed to think of something, and said coldly, "What? I was crushed by Sun Ce's child, and you immediately felt that the direction was wrong and you had to change sides." ?”

The man bowed slightly to Liu Yao: "Although Zhou Mu's words are not very pleasant, they are also appropriate. According to our majesty, our ally should be a strong person, not one who can't even defend his own city. Live cowards."

"you!"

"Hum."

Liu Yao was about to have a fit, but he was an elderly person after all, so he calmed down quickly, and he sneered at the messenger, "Okay, then go find that Sun Bofu, I felt ashamed to practice with you Yu Xianzu, now I feel at ease."

The messenger bowed to Liu Yao, then turned and left.

As soon as he took two steps, Liu Yao added to his back: "Let me remind you, don't think that I accept your proposal so easily, and think that big men are people like me. On the contrary, I, Liu Yao is against human ethics in this matter."

The man bowed slightly with Liu Yao on his back, and then left.
