Summoning of God of War of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 306 The Kuai Family's Choice
In Xiangyang City, Liu Biao was restless, he already knew Yuan Shu's madness.

"Cai Mao, Cai He, Kuai Yue, Kuai Liang, you all have something to say!"

Liu Biao asked the four people eagerly, but they couldn't come up with a good solution.

Yuan Shu's Yangzhou army was already very strong, and they had already given up their foundation to attack Jingzhou with an obvious purpose.

The other party was already at the bottom of the boat, Liu Biao thought to himself that if he could not resist with troops, Jingzhou would be lost!
Cai Mao gritted his teeth and said, "My lord, the current situation is hopeless."

"It's too late for anyone to ask for help. Mr. Cao is too far away from us. He sent troops to come here, and Jingzhou is gone."

"Yuan Shao can't even control the Sili area by himself, so he definitely doesn't want to step into this muddy water. Lu Bu's words...although he has time, but this man is ambitious, and he is very likely to defect and help Yuan Shu attack us!"

After Liu Biao heard Cai Mao's words, he couldn't help but wryly smiled and shook his head helplessly.

In the first half of his life, he was considered a master of the situation, controlling a state with the most fertile land and the largest area in the Han Dynasty. Unexpectedly, even Yuan Shu would be afraid of it now.

Kuai Liang frowned slightly, and after glancing at his younger brother, told him not to speak.

Seeing his brother reminding himself, Kuai Yue also lowered his head, not going to make any suggestion.

Seeing that Kuai Liang and Kuai Yue were silent, Cai Mao knew that these two must have their own plans.

Liu Biao sighed, and asked Kuai Liang, "Zi Rou, what can you do?"

Kuai Liang didn't speak, but Liu Biao asked him himself.

After all, Kuai Liang was Liu Biao's confidant and adviser, and he was very good at handling government affairs.

Hearing that the lord had asked himself, Kuai Liang could only answer with his hands clasped.

"My lord, I'm a low-level official, and I haven't thought of a way yet."

"My lord, can you give me the next three days to think about it, and I will definitely give you an answer."

As soon as Kuai Liang finished speaking, Cai Mao yelled angrily, and said, "Kai Zirou, are you conspiring against me? In three days, two days, Yuan Shu can get to the city of Xiangyang!"

"You asked the lord to give you three days, because you want to take this opportunity to control the guards of the tower, so that you can directly open the city gate to Yuan Shu?"

The Cai family and the Kuai family had always been at odds, so Cai Mao wanted to add insult to injury.

Kuai Liang was not in a hurry, he just said: "General Cai, I just have nothing to do. My lord, I need time to think about it. If General Cai has some clever ideas, I should listen to General Cai."

"My subordinate and my younger brother will go back first. If General Cai can solve this crisis, I will personally thank General Cai."

Kuai Liang took Kuai Yue out of the room without being impatient.

Cai Mao didn't stop him, instead he showed a slight smile, very at ease.

Kuai Yue is going to withdraw from the fight with himself, and now Liu Biao is only surrounded by the Cai family.

Seeing that Kuai Yue had left unexpectedly, Liu Biao sighed helplessly and could only ask Cai Mao.

Cai Mao smiled slightly, moved to Liu Biao's side, and whispered a few words.

Liu Biao suddenly got angry, and said, "How can this be possible! Jingzhou is my life's property, how can..."

Seeing that Liu Biao was angry, Cai Mao hurriedly continued, "My lord, Yuan Shu is rebellious. It is the best policy for us to avoid his edge."

"Now that the situation is like this, we can only take a step back. As long as we preserve our strength and hold military power, he will not exclude us, but will use us."

"As long as we still have use value, we can negotiate conditions. It won't be too difficult to bring troops back when the time comes."

Liu Biao's anger gradually subsided, and he had to admit that Cai Mao's method was indeed good.

"Okay, then do as you said. Yuan Shu is crazy, we have to give up some."

"If we really do this, other aristocratic families will definitely panic. You can't use a knife on them. When we come back, we will have to rely on them."

"Especially the Kuai family, I don't want you to meet each other at this juncture!"

"Go down!"

Liu Biao showed a wry smile, and helplessly covered his eyes with his hands, telling Cai Mao to back down.

Cai Mao hurriedly saluted Liu Biao, and then left with his younger brother.

Cai He frowned slightly, and said to his elder brother: "Brother, Liu Biao asked us to deal with this matter, what about those aristocratic families?"

Cai Mao narrowed his eyes and said, "Don't worry about it, let them make their own choice. Try not to tell them the inside story. After all, Liu Biao is only surrounded by our Cai family. It's best for us to guess."

"As for the Kuai family, you lead your soldiers to keep an eye on them. If they want to leave with their whole family, you let them go. If they want to lead their soldiers to control the tower, kill them!"

Cai Mao's eyes were fierce, and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised.

In the Kuai family in Xiangyang City, Kuai Liang sat on the honorable seat, and Kuai Liang sat on the second seat.

Those who are working are all the high-level officials of the Kuai family, as well as a few seniors.

"Zirou, tell me what's going on? Is it true that Yuan Shu led troops to raid Xiangyang City?"

A senior from the Kuai family with a gray beard asked.

Kuai Liang just replied with a smile: "Old uncle, this is indeed the case."

"However, Yuan Shu will take two days to get here at the fastest. We have plenty of time."

"Different degrees, you know more about commanding troops than your brother, let me tell you."

When Kuai Yue heard this, he hurriedly said, "Yuan Shu's army is following the official route, and it will take two days to get here. Including the siege, it will take three days to enter the city."

"I discussed this matter with my elder brother before. Liu Biao's next plan must be to abandon the city and flee."

When the rest of the Kuai family heard this, they were shocked and didn't know what to say.

Kuai Liang continued: "Yuan Shu is cruel and heartless, we can't regard him as the master, and he will lose his head if he acts as a minion for a tiger."

"So I discussed with Yidu, let's flee with our family tonight and go north to rely on Lord Jizhou Governor."

When the elders of Kuai's parents heard about it, they were very dissatisfied.

An old man even yelled: "Yidu, Zirou, you are crazy! Our Kuai family has been in Jingzhou for many years, how can we just leave?"

"It's a long way from here to Jizhou, what do you want us old guys to do?"

After Kuai Liang heard the words of the two seniors, he narrowed his eyes and remained silent for a while.

Kuai Yue also knew what his brother was thinking, the situation was such that he could no longer care about these elders.

Kuai Liang said a few words, "The seniors are the seniors of the Kuai family, and they are willing to stay in Xiangyang, and we don't force it."

"But the Kuai family absolutely cannot serve Yuan Shu. This is suicidal! Now that Wenpin is away, Cai Mao controls the military power in Xiangyang, so he must be watching us."

"In order to be able to control Liu Biao, he will never let the Kuai family follow Liu Biao. We can't protect ourselves now, so we can only be the strongest people in the north."

Kuai Liang also supported his brother's words. He looked at the old men and nodded seriously.

"you!"

Seeing the attitude of Kuai Liang and Kuai Yue, several elders were very angry, but there was nothing they could do.

Kuai Yue frowned slightly, and said to his elder brother: "Brother, if we flee to Jizhou, do we need to bring along our literati students?"

Kuai Liang didn't think about it, and replied directly: "Absolutely not! Yidu, you don't understand the real ups and downs of the officialdom. Let me take care of this matter."

"Just bring five hundred soldiers and clansmen. Wait until Jizhou is under the rule, and then dismiss the soldiers! Let's go to Han Fu, then we are just grassroots. Jizhou is actually controlled by Han Wu. We have been suppressing aristocratic families for years, so we can't be too ostentatious."

"Only by entering an official position as a grassroots citizen can you be protected."

Kuai Yue didn't quite understand what his elder brother meant, but he also knew that what his elder brother said was definitely not meant to harm the Kuai family.
