Chapter 439 Keep the clouds open and see the moon
A few hours later, Guan Yu, dressed in black, returned to the warship in the hiding place. He told Zhuge Liang the truth about the blocking.
"...Mr. Zhuge, if Tai Shici hadn't suddenly appeared, he would have killed all the remaining Changsha soldiers..." Guan Yu said to Zhuge Liang as he changed his clothes. Guan Yu's speech was very regrettable. In fact, he still had another doubt in his heart: for some reason, the qi and blood in his body surged, which seriously affected the speed of the move, and eventually led to a significant decline in the lethality of the move... In the past few years, Guan Yu has not felt the joy of the growth of martial arts. Specifically: Originally, he could defeat Zhang Fei within 500 moves, but now he is fighting with Zhang Fei within a thousand moves!
Zhang Feiqin studied hard, and he didn't slack off himself. Why is that? Guan Yu was puzzled. However, he did not reveal this doubt to anyone as a secret hidden in his heart.
Zhuge Liang was shocked to hear that Tai Shici had hindered Guan Yu from carrying out his task. However, after careful consideration, he regained his composure. He looked at Guan Yu and said calmly, "General Guan, as long as you destroy Liu Qi's body, even if it's a great success is done... That Taishi Ci is really a person. It's not simple. Usually, he doesn't show mountains or dew. In the future, he will be the biggest obstacle to Uncle Liu's strong rise..."
Zhuge Liang also watched the celestial phenomena at night and carefully observed the general star of the super fierce general in the world. It belongs to Tai Shici's general star, which is similar to that of Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and Zhang Liao. It is not as bright as Zhou Yu's general star. However, in reality, Tai Shici's performance is beyond Zhuge Liang's expectation. In this way, Zhuge Liang began to look at Tai Shici differently from this moment.
Of course, before Zhuge Liang came to the Chibi Ferry to participate in the contending ceremony, he also saw that the main star representing Sun Quan was dim by watching the celestial phenomena at night, which indicates that Sun Quan had died. In fact, why is Sun Quan still alive? This also puzzles Zhuge Liang.
The impact of reality made Zhuge Liang begin to doubt his level and ability to watch the celestial phenomena at night. In fact, it is not Zhuge Liang's weak ability: but the problems he encountered are all new things for him. If he knows that Jiangdong Sun Hao and the demons and evil figures of the Japanese country are together, he will understand: why the celestial phenomena show that Sun Quan has passed away, and Sun Quan is still alive in life; if he knows that Taishi Ci has Taoist respect. If Lin Fan supports it, he will know that the star representing Tai Shici was deliberately covered by Taoist Lin Fan...
In the eyes of Taoist Master Lin Fan, the star, which represents Tai Shici, has begun to turn into the main star, which indicates that Tai Shici must become a hegemon like Cao Cao and Yuan Shao!
Although the result of Zhuge Liang's trip was not perfect, he also felt that it was worth it: because he knew in advance that Zhou Yu was not dead, Zhou Yu only designed to let Liu Bei throw himself into the trap. In order to avoid the expected disaster, Zhuge Liang represented Liu Bei to attend Zhou Yu's condolence ceremony. During the worship, Zhuge Liang really didn't expect Zhou Yu to fake the play. Zhou Yu really put himself in the coffin. Zhuge Liang was secretly overjoyed, with great sadness on the surface, with the tears of a crocodile; secretly, he had used his Taoist skills to kill Zhou Yu.
There is no movement in the whole process, seamless! Of course, Guan Yu carried out his temporary task - blocking Changsha soldiers and destroying Liu Qi's body, which was destroyed by Tai Shici at the critical moment, but this did not affect Liu Bei's recruitment of Huang Zhong in the future.
Of course, under the premise that it has changed, Liu Bei's recruitment of Huang Zhong will definitely go through some twists and turns. If it hadn't been for Liu Qi's body, it is estimated that Liu Bei could attract Huang Zhong in one sentence. Now... Zhuge Liang figured out this problem in an instant and was relieved. He used good things to comfort himself!
A day later, Zhuge Liang and Guan Yu successfully returned to Xiangyang City, Jingzhou. At this time, the news that Sun Liu's allied forces defeated the powerful Cao army in Chibi has spread all over the country like a spring breeze. Because Liu Biao, the herdsman of Jingzhou, did not have descendants to inherit the official position and title, Liu Bei, who was as the emperor's uncle and the victor, became the new master of Jingzhou. At this time, except for Jiangxia County and Changsha County, the other five kings of Jingzhou were under the jurisdiction of Liu Bei.
With the help of pacing the local rebellion, Liu Bei has sent Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun and Liao Hua to various places. As the new owner of Jingzhou, the generals and soldiers under Liu Bei's command collectively changed their clothes. As a result, the army to which Liu Bei belonged had a new look. As a result, wherever Liu Bei went, he was loved and admired by the local clan and ordinary people. As a result, Liu Bei won the hearts of the people and became the backbone and soul figure of the people of Jingzhou.
On this day, in the magistrate's residence in Chengzhou, Xiangyang, Liu Bei held a small confidential meeting with Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong. At this time, Guan Yu also went out to do business. The guards in the official residence were all special soldiers specially trained by Zhuge Liang. These guards are similar to Yan Yun's eighteen riders: the combat effectiveness of a single person is average. If eight people get together, according to the position of gossip, it will produce magical power. Through the blessing of the gossip array, eight people can fight with Super fierce generals such as Guan Yu and Zhang Fei fight, and they don't fall behind in hundreds of moves!
Dozens of specially trained bodyguards may patrol the official residence, or stand quietly at the sentry and guard on duty. In this way, Liu Bei. Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong spoke freely in the spacious hall without any taboos!
In the bright hall, the sunrise map of the sea of clouds is hung in the middle hall; Liu Bei kneels on the main seat, and Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong kneels on the left and right sides respectively. At this time, Liu Bei was watching the military map on the table, while Zhuge Liang looked peaceful and gently shook the fan. Pang Tong, on the other hand, is eloquent and endlessly discussing his views on the current situation: "Lord, Zhuge Junshi, if it weren't for the Jiangdong Sun Group's taboo on us and estrangement, and parted ways with us halfway. It is estimated that at this time, Sun Liu's allied forces have entered near the imperial capital Luoyang City... In the Battle of Chibi, Cao Caoyi Nearly 200,000 soldiers and horses were damaged, and several super generals were seriously injured. Since then, without three years of recovery, it is difficult for Cao Cao to launch a large-scale war. And the Jiangdong Sun Group also lost Huang Gai and Zhou Yu's two super generals due to corruption. At the same time, on the southern battlefield of Qingzhou, the Jiangdong Army was at a discord between the main general and the supervisor. In the pursuit, nearly 10,000 soldiers were lost... Therefore, in comparison, except for the loss of thousands of Jingzhou soldiers, we did not hurt our muscles and bones at all... In a word, Cao Cao's side and Jiangdong Sun Group are going downhill at this time, only our irreversible strong rise..."
Liu Bei listened to Pang Tong's analysis, squeezed his mouth and nodded one after another; while Zhuge Liang smiled. When Pang Tong's warm eyes turned from Liu Bei's face to Zhuge Liang's face, Zhuge Liang said with a smile, "Brother Shiyuan's analysis is extremely compatible with reality. The Red Cliff was defeated, which made the proud and complacent Cao Cao carry a big follower. It is estimated that in three or five years, Cao Cao did not want to unify the world; and Jiangdong Sun Group, although The surface looks very calm. In fact, the internal high-level undercurrent is surging and cloudy, and no one knows what will happen tomorrow..."
Due to the limitations of heaven and some secrets, Zhuge Liang can't casually reveal to Liu Bei and Pang Tong: for example, through night watching the sky, Zhuge Liang clearly saw that Sun Quan, the head of Jiangdong Group, has passed away, but in reality, Sun Quan is still alive... This situation only shows that the senior management of Jiangdong Group will definitely happen. A bloody struggle.
Zhuge Liang said that when he came to this, he let his consciousness believe in the rein and out of his mind. After a while, Zhuge Liang stopped his divergent thinking and continued calmly: "Master, no matter what happens to the Jiangdong Sun Group, Liang can conclude that recently, Jiangdong will definitely have no time to take care of Jingzhou's affairs. Since then, we will seize Wuling County, Jiangling County and Changsha County as soon as possible! ...When the raw rice is cooked, Jiangdong can only give up these three counties to us!"
When Liu Bei heard this, he showed a little hesitation on his face. He almost muttered to himself, "Wuling County, Jiangling County and Changsha County are close to the boundary of Jiangdong. These three counties should be divided into Sun Group according to reason..."
"Lord, you worry too much!" Pang Tong looked at Liu Bei with a firm face and said loudly, "Lord, in extraordinary times, if you want to do great things, you need to use extraordinary means! ..."
When Liu Bei heard the words, he stared at Pang Tong thoughtfully. At this time, Liu Bei did not know that Zhang Fei killed Liu Qi in the melee. The reason why Zhang Fei could do such insidious things was the idea of Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong. For the bright future of his eldest brother Liu Bei, Zhang Fei endured humiliation and did extraordinary things by extraordinary means.
Of course, Zhang Fei's temper became more and more irritable later, which also had a lot to do with this matter. After all, Zhang Fei was naturally jealous of evil, and out of all kinds of helplessness, he also did an evil thing - killing Liu Qi in the melee! No matter what the purpose is, Zhang Fei has always felt that the way he uses is not too bright...
In order to let Liu Bei eat reassurance, Zhuge Liang took advantage of the hot iron and said, "Master, what Brother Shiyuan said is the truth, not an illusory truth! Lord, as long as we don't move Jiangxia County at this time, Jiangdong will not pay attention to our occupation of Wuling County, Jiangling County and Changsha County... Lord, take a step back and say: Even if we don't move the mind of Changsha County, can Jiangdong successfully occupy Changsha County? Huang Zhong, the governor of Changsha County, and the Jiangdong Sun Group have a clan hatred! ... And if we want to occupy Changsha County, we only need to use a little plan, and then we can find out... When we occupy most of the territory in Jingzhou, at that time, Yizhou Liu Zhang will definitely take the initiative to ask for an alliance with us, and then Liu Zhang will ask us to help him quell the rebellion in Yizhou... Lord, as long as we With two feng shui treasures, Jingzhou and Yizhou, we can fight against Cao Cao in the north and the Sun Group in Jiangdong, and divide the world into three parts! ...Haha."
At the end, Zhuge Liang, who had always been calm, was also in high spirits and laughed brightly. Pang Tong also laughed happily. In the laughter of the two, Liu Bei began to look forward to a beautiful blueprint at his fingertips!
At the same time, Liu Bei, who has been in the army for more than 20 years, still has a sense of vicissitudes of life in his heart...
