Chapter 234 Liu Biao's distress
"In that case, you can visit Xuanweihou on my behalf." Liu Qi smiled.
Jia Xu thought about Liu Qi's intention to do this, and said, "No."
"Has Xuan Weihou's family all arrived in Xiangyang?" Liu Qi suddenly asked.
"I arrived in Xiangyang on the third day after Xuanweihou arrived in Xiangyang." Jia Xu finally figured out Liu Qi's intention. Liu Qi did this undoubtedly to let him meet Zhang Xiu on behalf of Liu Qi and warn Zhang Xiu.
If Zhang Xiu has any different intentions, he will certainly not hide it from Zhang Xiu. Liu Qi's doing this is equivalent to tying Zhang Xiu with him. If Jia Xu goes to Zhang Xiu's house this time and tells Liu Qi that nothing has happened after coming back, then he will be the first person Liu Qi will investigate after Zhang Xiu's rebellion in the future.
After thinking about Liu Qi's intention, Jia Xu was a little bitter in his heart. After Zhang Xiu surrendered to Cao Cao last time, he rebelled, but he came up with the idea. If Zhang Xiu still has different intentions this time, he will definitely discuss with Zhang Xiu. Liu Qi's doing this is not poisonous. Zhang Xiu will guard against anyone except for Jia Xu. Preventing, Jia Xu can feel that visiting Zhang Xiu this time is the time to decide Zhang Xiu's fate.
"Well, you go." Liu Qi waved his hand to Jia Xu to step down.
"No."
It was not until Jia Xu left that Liu Qi sneered. Although Zhang Xiu was not very honest in Jingzhou these days, he did not want to be so rebellious in Cao Cao's army. The reason why Liu Qi asked Jia Xu to visit Zhang Xiu's house was, on the one hand, to see if this embroidery was really surrendered, and the other One aspect is to let Jia Xu know that since he is already his subordinate, he should do his best.
Although Jia Xu's behavior in the past few days is normal, there is no outstanding performance, which makes Liu Qi a little irritable. He knew that Jia Xu's talent was far from as simple as the surface, but Jia Xu still had a lot of concerns in his heart that had not been shown. Liu Qi was also forcing Jia Xu not to take a chance.
"Report to the lord, Wuling County emergency report." Jia Xu just left a flying tiger guard and ran over in a panic.
"Bell it in." Liu Qi immediately stood up and looked at the door with condensed eyes. He knew that Cao Cao's action this time was not simple, but he did not expect that Cao Cao's means were so fierce that his hand had reached Jingnan.
"Lord." A flying tiger guard came in a few steps and handed the letter in his hand to Liu Qi.
Liu Qi came forward to receive the letter and opened it. As soon as he opened it, his face changed greatly. Wuling County was actually lost. Just five days ago, the Wuxi barbarians in the south of Wuling County invaded Wuling County under the leadership of Shamoke. Jin Xuan, the governor of Wuling County, led his troops to resist. As a result, he was ambushed by Gong Zhi, the governor of Wuling County. He died on the spot, and then Wuling County also fell into the hands of Shamoke.
In just three days, Wuling County has been occupied by Shamoke. If it hadn't been for the soldiers and horses of Changsha County and Lingling County to support Wuling County, I'm afraid Wuling County would have completely fallen. Now only a few counties in the north of Wuling County are still struggling to support it.
"Good! Very good! Since Cao Mengde is so merciful, how can I let you down? Liu Qi threw the letter in his hand on the table, went out of the study and said to the flying tiger guard outside the door, "Bima, I'm going to the state pastoral government."
"No." The soldiers at the door knew that something big had happened today, and they did not dare to neglect to prepare the horses. In less than a quarter of an hour, more than a hundred people had gathered outside the door.
Liu Qi did not hesitate to leave the mansion. He jumped on the horse's back and patted the horse and went to the state pastoral house. If he wanted to solve this crisis, he still needed Liu Biao's support. Although he controlled this part of his strength, he knew that Liu Biao had the final say in Jingzhou. Even if he kept developing his power, he could not compare. Liu Biao, this is also a tacit understanding between the two father and son.
If Liu Qi naturally didn't care about this in the past, but this time the situation is critical and if there is any carelessness, Jingzhou will collapse. If Liu Biao can't let him do it at this time, he can't pacify Jingzhou. Therefore, this trip to the state pastoral government is to see Liu Biao's attitude. If Liu Biao is at this time He can't let go of the suspicion in his heart. There is no need for him to stay in Xiangyang.
At that time, he had to leave Xiangyang and rush to Changsha. Relying on the soldiers and horses in Changsha is enough to pacify Wuling County. In addition, the power of Pang Tong in Wancheng, Zhuge Liang in Jiangxia and Liu Qi is weak, but it has begun to take shape. He believes that such a great opportunity for Sun Ce in Jiangdong and Cao Cao in the north can sit idly by. At that time, he paced Jingzhou again. Although he might lose part of his strength, at that time, the people under his command must have become iron plate after running in, which is far from being comparable to the fragmentation of Jingzhou now.
.......................................................
Just as Liu Qi received the news from Jiangxia and Wuling, Liu Biao in the state pastoral government also received the news. Even Cai Mao and others in Xiangyang City have also received the news. Liu Biao, who has been in Jingzhou for more than ten years, has seen the wind and grass in Xiangyang City. How could Cai Mao and others hide such a big move from him?
At this time, Liu Biao was sitting alone in the garden, and his breath was extremely cold. The attendants around him had never seen Liu Biao so scared that they did not dare to approach.
At this time, Liu Biao's heart was complicated and abnormal. He had been in Jingzhou for more than ten years and had never encountered such a situation. When he saw a few messages on the table, he guessed that it must be Cao Cao who was making trouble behind it. Although he felt that Liu Qi did this, he did not blame Liu Qi.
What really made him feel uncomfortable was that he had been in Jingzhou for more than ten years. Cao Cao in the north had always been tee to Jingzhou. Even if he sent troops to attack, he did not invest too much soldiers and horses. Even if Sun Ce in Jiangdong often attacked Jingzhou, it was only tens of thousands of soldiers and horses.
But now it has only been a few days for Liu Qi to preside over the affairs of Jingzhou. Sun Ce in Jiangdong unexpectedly came to attack Jingzhou with more than 100,000 troops from Jiangdong, while Cao Cao in the north spared no effort to support the provocation behind his back, and even sent two generals to guard Fancheng and Shangyong. He is also prepared for Jingzhou and is ready at any time. Initiate against Jingzhou.
And the internal Cao Cao Cao actually provoked and swung up such a large group of people. These people are not ordinary people. These people are all outstanding figures in Xiangyang. They are united with each other with high power. In addition, the Wuxi barbarians in Wuling County dare to kill the Taishou and occupy Wuling County.
In just over ten days, Jingzhou, which had been unusually calm, fell into such a dangerous situation. Jingzhou, which was originally rich and stable, was about to face collapse overnight. He had never thought of such a situation before.
It was not until this time that he suddenly realized that no matter how he developed, no matter how he defended himself, Jingzhou had long been the fat in the eyes of the princes of the world. The princes of the world had long wanted to divide up Jingzhou. The reason why he did not do so was that the grim situation in the north attracted the attention of the world, and the north The development of the situation directly determines the situation of the whole world, but Jingzhou has never changed and can be divided at any time.
Liu Biao smiled bitterly. It turned out that the last piece of paradise he had tried his best to create was so fragile that even the princes in the world did not pay attention to Jingzhou at all and could attack it at any time. The power he was proud of could not attract the attention of other princes.
If it hadn't been for Liu Qi's ability to show in just over ten days, I'm afraid that I would still be immersed in the cage I created for myself at this time. Liu Qi only controlled Jingzhou for more than ten days, which attracted the attention of the princes of the world, and even suppressed Jingzhou at all costs, or by Liu Qi.
Seeing such a scene, Liu Biao rushed to an unprecedented setback. His efforts for more than ten years were not as good as the means shown by his son for more than ten days, which made him, who was a little proud, somewhat unacceptable.
At this time, Xin Pi came over with a sad face. Seeing Xin Pi, Liu Biao smiled bitterly and said, "Am I too useless? I didn't realize such a big hidden danger. It turned out that I had been living in the cage of other princes over the years. If it hadn't been for Qier's behavior these days that the princes of the world would have attacked them, I'm afraid I would still be proud at this time.
"Ha ha, how can ordinary people be able to defeat the foundation of Jingzhou under the condition of a group of enemies looking around? The north rejected Yuan Shu, the east resisted Sun Jian, and united with Zhang Xiu to defeat Cao Cao's attack several times. How can ordinary people do such a person? Do you know that Liu Xuande, who sat in Xuzhou, was captured by Cao Cao in just a few months, is still running away in confusion. Although Jing Sheng's situation is different from that of Liu Xuande, it is also very similar. At the beginning, Jing Sheng rode into Jingzhou alone, and such courage could be possessed by others? Xin Pi smiled and said.
He can feel the depression and shame in Liu Biao's heart. As a bystander, he sees it more clearly than Liu Biao. Although Liu Biao does have many shortcomings, he has to admit that Liu Biao's talent is indeed extraordinary. At the beginning, Yuan Shu occupied Wancheng in the north and tried to claim himself emperor. Inside, there was a complex relationship between the forces of various parties in Jingzhou. In the east, there were Jiangdong forces staring at it. In such a bad situation, he could unify Jingzhou. How could Liu Biao be cowardly and incompetent?
"Do you already know?" Liu Biao looked at Xin Pi in surprise, and it was only half an hour after he got the news.
"Ha ha, I guessed it when I heard the shouts of those guards. The performance of Qier these days is really too eye-catching. How can I not be considerate." Xin Pi smiled and said.
"It seems that you have a countermeasure." Liu Biao breathed a sigh of relief. Although Xin Pi was still worried at this time, it was not too obvious. Obviously, he had a plan in his heart.
