Chapter 641 Xin Jia
After the Zhen family, the two brothers Xin Bixin also defected to the Xiliang army. Now they are becoming Chen Zhen's assistants to help Chen Zhen manage Jizhou. As a big family in Jizhou, the two brothers of the Xin family have a better understanding of the situation in Jizhou. With their help, Jizhou will become stronger and stronger.
Not only the civil servants in Jizhou, but also many of the generals who defected to the Xiliang army. Their lord Yuan Shao has died in the battle. None of the wives and children in the family have escaped. Jia Rong also temporarily placed these generals in the army, but secretly there is someone secretly monitoring. Once there is any abnormality, he will be arrested immediately.
However, Zhang Jian and Yan Liangwen Chou were hard-bodied and did not surrender no matter how they persuaded them. However, the three did not eat or drink in prison like Tian Feng. Instead, they ate very happily. After eating and drinking enough, they scolded the Xiliang Army and hated the jailers so much that they could hate them. They couldn't wait for Jia Rong to immediately order them to be executed.
Although Zhen Yi reached the peak of Jizhou in a short period of time, he still understood a lot of truths. He did not blindly develop his own strength, but effectively cooperated with the actions of the government. Even after Chen Zhen took a series of measures to weaken the family, he had never shown resistance, which really surprised many families. Take it.
There is a strong army guard in Jizhou, and the family does not dare to make any changes at all. Even if the family has ideas, it does not dare to show too clearly. Who knows how many people in the family have secretly defected to the Xiliang Army. If you are not careful, the family is destroyed, which is the most miserable.
In Jingzhou, Cao Cao hurried back to Yanzhou in dismay. The Xiliang army occupied Jizhou, and the situation of Cao's army became urgent in an instant. This neighbor was not as easy to fight as Yuan Shao. In Qingzhou alone, Cao Cao hoarded 50,000 soldiers and horses to guard against the Xiliang army. In addition to Luyang, he also hoarded 50,000. Soldiers and horses, coupled with the loss of nearly 100,000 soldiers and horses in Jingzhou, lost 200,000 troops. There was little spare power in the army, so they had to recruit again and slowly restore their strength. They did not calm down Liu Biao in Jingzhou, which means that Cao Cao wanted to fight with the Xiliang army and needed to make great efforts. After this battle. After that, Cao Cao also had a feeling of exhaustion. Over the years of hard work, he was once cracked by Liu Bei, and he was unwilling and a little disappointed. At that time, compared with Jia Rong, he got up higher and occupied the fertile land of the Central Plains in a short time. Unexpectedly, he still couldn't compare with the Xiliang Army.
Liu Biao was very excited to be able to drive Cao Cao, a big enemy, out of Jingzhou. After Cao Cao withdrew his troops, he ordered Kuai Yue to lead 50,000 soldiers and horses, intending to take back the lost Nanyang County in one fell swoop and completely disintegrating the power of Cao's army in Jingzhou.
It doesn't matter that Liu Biao is happy. There is something wrong with his body. He coughed loudly and panicked the maid of honor and hurriedly brought the royal doctor over. After lying on the ** diagnosis, the royal doctor shook his head slightly. In the years when he became a saint, Liu Biao also became desolate. The harem recruited a lot of beautiful women, not to mention Ye Ye Sheng. Ge will also go every once in a while. Liu Biao has already entered old age. It doesn't matter if he is so tossing. He can't get up when he is sick. No matter what means the royal doctor has, for an old man who is happy and sad and has entered his twilight years, it seems that there is no medicine to save him.
Liu Biao fell on the bed and became particularly violent. Once he met a maid who knocked things over in the house and directly ordered to be executed. Many concubines were also reprimanded. For a moment, people in the palace were panicked.
It's the same. Liu Biao has just been emperor for many years. God played such a joke on him, and it would be uncomfortable for anyone.
Liu Biao was stained with a lot of body and fell on the bed. The courtiers under his command also began to choose the people they should support. Liu Biao has two sons, one is Liu Qi and the other is Liu Kung. However, Liu Biao's favorite is the youngest son Liu Kang, not the eldest son Liu Qi. This is worth thinking about by his officials. Although Liu Qi is the eldest son of Liu Biao, he is more Over the years, he has been guarding Jiangxia, which is called resisting Jiangdong. The ministers know in their hearts that this is the strategy implemented by Liu Biao to prevent Liu Qi and Liu Zong from fighting for power in the future.
At this critical moment, standing in the wrong team means that it will be suppressed or shaken up in this small court in the future.
Recently, no matter what kind of food it is, Liu Biao can't swallow. He barely eats something every day, and his anxious personality gradually calms down. He began to think about the things behind him. He has been satisfied with his life and won the 95th Five-Year Plan. What a blessing it is to do.
"Order, let Liu Bei come to the palace to meet." Liu Biao said in a hoarse voice.
To say that the most uneasy thing about Jingzhou is not Cai Mao but Liu Bei in Jiangling. At that time, with his understanding of Liu Bei, he was able to subdue him. Once he left, relying on Jiangling, Liu Bei could not help but turn Jingzhou upside down. If so, Liu Biao could not rest in peace underground.
After Liu Bei was summoned by Liu Biao, he was a little puzzled. Although the two were of the same clan, since Liu Biao ascended the throne as emperor, Liu Biao met him less and less, and the news that Liu Biao was terminally ill was circulating in Jingzhou. Liu Bei also heard some news in Jiangling, and even prepared to fight in Nanyang. The 50,000 soldiers and horses of the county also retreated to Xiangyang, and the whole Jingzhou was shrouded in a shadow.
"Lord, Liu Jingsheng is not for anything else, but for the military power in the hands of the Lord." Zhuge Liang said slowly, "In the battle of Jiangling on that day, there were only more than a hundred people left in the tens of thousands of Cao army. There were drowned and many surrenders. At present, our army has 40,000 soldiers and horses. Throughout Jingzhou, there are only tens of thousands of soldiers. Liu Jingsheng can rest assured."
"Sir, what should I do?" Liu Bei said urgently that he finally had soldiers and horses in his hand. He didn't want to be deprived in such a plain way. If he didn't lose it, he would not understand the importance of the army. After he had the military power in his hand, Liu Bei had a greater opportunity to raise his career to a higher level.
"Lord, no matter what Liu Biao asks, just say that he will abide by the emperor. Even if he wants the military power in the hands of the lord, he will hand it over without hesitation." Zhuge Liang said.
Liu Bei asked puzzledly, "Sir, is this?"
"Liu Biao is already in the west mountain at dusk, and his personality will definitely become suspicious and uncertain. The master readily handed over the military power in his hand, and he will also see that the master has no ambition to compete for Jingzhou. Liu Biao has the order and agrees. That is to say, the master admits that he is a saint. If Liu Jingsheng asks a hundred years later, what should he has The son inherits the throne, and the lord only says that he doesn't know. Remember that the disaster comes from the mouth. Zhuge Liang told him.
"In the words of Mr. Liu Beidao.
After Liu Bei left, Zhuge Liang muttered, "Even if Liu Biao wants the military power of our army, it's not easy to talk about it. Humph, Jingzhou will fall into the hands of the master sooner or later."
Liu Bei led more than a hundred cavalry, ran wildly, and rushed to Xiangyang on a starry night.
"Weichen pays a visit to the Holy King." Liu Bei saluted respectfully.
Liu Biao's sleeping eyelids moved slightly a few times, struggling to sit up, and was hurriedly supported by the maid beside him.
"Xuan De, don't be polite. Get up quickly." Liu said in a hurry.
With a sigh of relief, Liu Biao continued to say, "Xuan De, you and I are from the same sect, but now the widow is seriously ill and must be leaving. The two talentless sons are not enough to control the power of Jingzhou, so they will be handed over to Xuande to govern."
"Sir, by all don't. What virtues can you do to rule Jingzhou? The two princes are smart and willing to do their best to assist." Liu Bei said hurriedly.
"Oh, let's discuss this matter later." Liu Biao said, "I heard that Xuande is training soldiers and horses in Jiangling to fight to the death with Cao Cao?"
"The emperor, Weichen started from the end of the Weichen. He finally had such a huge foundation in Xuzhou and was attacked and occupied by Cao Cao's children. The two sides have long been in the same situation. They did not kill Cao Cao. Weichen vowed not to give up. As long as Cao Cao dares to invade Jingzhou, he will spare no effort." Liu Bei said loudly that there was no fraud in these words. The whole world knew about him and Cao Cao.
"Okay, it is the blessing of my Jingzhou that Xuande can have this ambition." Liu Watch was a little overly excited, coughing non-stop, and his cheeks flushed.
"Son of the Holy King, the dragon body is the more important."
"It doesn't matter. I know my body in my heart. Xuande, Jingzhou has been short of soldiers and horses since the war with Cao Cao. I heard that there are tens of thousands of elite soldiers in Xuande's hands. I don't know if it can be used for Jingzhou to help me calm down the disaster."
"Holy, the soldiers and horses of Weichen are the soldiers and horses of the Holy, but it is incumbent on them to be sent. How can they be borrowed?" Liu Bei knelt down on one knee.
"Well, Xuande is loyal and Geng Geng, and he is an important minister of Jingzhou. After a hundred years, I hope you can do your best to assist the new emperor." After saying that, Liu Biao waved to Liu Bei to leave and closed his eyes.
Leaving the palace, Liu Bei felt that his back was soaked with sweat. If it hadn't been for Zhuge Liang's previous advice, I'm afraid that when Liu Biao proposed to hand over the military power, he would hesitate for a moment. Once he hesitated and saw some clues, Liu Biao would definitely not hesitate to leave himself in the palace to accompany him forever, No matter how talented Liu Bei is, it is an unstable factor to put it in Jingzhou, and Liu Biao will not let him go.
"What are you talking about? After the emperor summoned Liu Bei, he talked for a long time, and then Liu Bei left the palace?" Queen Cai doubted.
"The Queen, that's exactly what happened." The little eunuch replied in a hurry.
"Go down." Empress Cai said.
"What's wrong with this Liu Biao? Why did you let Liu Bei leave the palace? Didn't you say that you would take away the military power in his hand?
Liu Biao has two sons. In response to the matter of the heir, many ministers think that Liu Biao will pass the throne to Liu Qi. There is nothing else. The eldest son is the rule set by the ancestors, but people with a clear eye can see that Liu Biao prefers Liu Cong, the second son of Empress Cai, and Liu Cong is talented and intelligent. Although he is young, he speaks and does things. He is already the leader and is deeply loved by Liu Biao. Maybe a hundred years later, the throne will become Liu Khen's.
