Chapter 135 Muling

"The military division means..." Hearing Zhuge Liang's confident words, Liu Bei's spirit was immediately refreshed.

"Borrow South County."

Zhuge Liang simply said these three words.

"Lending South County?" Liu Bei was a little surprised and couldn't understand the truth of Zhuge Liang's words for a while.

Zhuge Liang shook the fan and said with a faint smile, "The importance of Jingzhou is only in Nanjun, which is more valuable than the other six counties. Didn't Zhou Gongjin want to interfere in Jingnan's bureau? Then we just use this matter to make an article and borrow Nanjun from Wuhou's hand."

Liu Bei was more and more excited. He vaguely understood a few points, but he still couldn't fully understand it. He hurriedly said, "Nanjun is the Wu people who have worked so hard to fight down. How can I let Wu Hou borrow it?"

"Nanjun is certainly a big piece of fat meat, but for Wu Hou, nothing is more important than keeping his position as the lord of Jiangdong." Zhuge Liang's tone is very meaningful.

At this point, Liu Bei's eyes suddenly lit up: "The military division means, do you want to alienate the relationship between Wu Hou and Zhou Gongjin?"

Zhuge Liang smiled and said slowly, "Zhou Lang first won the Battle of Chibi and then defeated Nanjun, which can be said to have shocked the world. Now he occupies the quintessence of Jingzhou and holds half of the soldiers of Eastern Wu. What's more, it is rare that he is his generals under his command. He is convinced of his heart. Now Zhou Lang uses the four words 'gong Gao Zhenzhu' to form It's not too much."

Liu Bei thought so and nodded, "At the time of Chibi, Wu Hou had some scruples about Zhou Lang, so he sent Cheng Pu as deputy governor to clamp it. After Chibi, Wu Hou acquiesced in us to take the four counties of Jingnan, among which there was also the intention of using my strength to clamp down Zhou Lang. Now that Liu Feng's rebellion, my strength has been greatly reduced to Zhou Lang's The checks and balances have been greatly weakened.

"At this time, Zhou Lang helped Liu Feng again. If Zhou Lang and Liu Feng form the same camp in the end, the system of checks and balances painstakingly created by Wu Hou will be completely disintegrated. In the whole Jingzhou, no one will be able to clamp Zhou Lang again, which is what Wu Hou does not want to see in any case."

"So, I took advantage of the opportunity to borrow Nan County. In order to restore the situation of checks and balances in Jingzhou, Wu Hou will definitely agree. In order to prevent Zhou Lang and Liu Feng from working together, Wu Hou will not intervene in my extermination of Liu Feng."

The two main ministers, as if their thoughts were fused at this moment, you said a word, I said the whole plan word by word.

After saying that, the two of them looked at each other and smiled, with tacit understanding and pride in their looks.

"If the lord agrees, then Liang will go to Jiangdong again. With Liang's three-inch tongue, he will be able to persuade Wu Hou." Zhuge Liang is very confident.

At this time, Liu Bei shook his head and said, "I won't bother the military division on this trip to Jiangdong. I'm going to the Wuhou in person for a while."

Zhuge Liang's expression changed slightly: "The lord's golden body, if you kiss Jiangdong, isn't it too risky?"

Although Sun Liu is an alliance, in the final analysis, Liu Bei is just under the shelter of Sun Quan. With Sun Quan's strength, if his mind is hot, he will desperately destroy Liu Bei first and swallow Jingzhou, it is not without this ability. Liu Bei's "door-to-door" way to Jiangdong is naturally extremely risky.

However, no one has more experience in this regard than Liu Bei. He dares to do so and has his own confidence.

"This matter is related to our life and death. I must go there in person to show my sincerity to Wu Hou and let him borrow Nanjun at ease. Moreover, I also want to see Wu Hou for a while and see with my own eyes what kind of person this 'blue-eyed' is. I also know myself and know my enemy, thinking that I will prepare for the future. "

Liu Bei's words implied that one day, his relationship with Sun Quan would become an enemy. As a strong opponent, he needed to know what kind of person his enemy was.

Liu Bei's mind had made up his mind, and Zhuge Liang no longer persuaded him.

..................

From midsummer to midsummer, although it is already early in the morning, the sultry air is still thick and heavy, and there is no trace of coolness.

Liu Feng was wrapped in a green shirt, with thin armor inside, and the sword stood quietly in the bow of the boat. The scenery on both sides of the strait fell back quickly. At the end of the eyes, a stone city built on the mountain gradually came into view. Unconsciously, it had passed, and the front was the end of the trip.

During the Warring States Period, this place was called Jinling. Later Qin Emperor unified the six kingdoms and paraded here. He heard that the accompanying Xiangshi said that the mountains around Jinling were steep, the terrain was dangerous, and there was the spirit of the emperor. The First Emperor of Qin changed Jinling to Muling. The meaning of the grass is also the meaning of the Qin Emperor, which means that this place is only suitable as a horse farm.

After the Sun captured Jiangdong, he took the Muling as the county seat of Danyang, and now Sun Quan has used it as the garrison of the Wuhou Military Mansion. Since then, the Muling has become the political and economic center of Jiangdong. After many years of operation by the Sun family, the status of its southeast heart has begun to be on a large scale.

When the sky was bright, the warship arrived at the wharf along the river.

Before landing, Liu Feng saw a team of carriages and horses waiting on the trestle on the trestle, and a group of people were looking at the ship. He guessed that most of them were the messengers who arrived first, and reported the news that he wanted to ask for marriage to Wu Hou. The people on the trestle should greet him. Looking at the ostentation, it seemed that Wu Hou still attached great importance to his arrival.

As soon as the ship landed, Liu Feng took a deep breath and walked on the trestle.

The group of people really came up. One of the middle-aged scribes came forward and saluted politely, "Is it General Liu?"

"It's me." Liu Feng also returned the gift.

Although he went deep into Jiangdong alone and asked for others, his words and manners were not at all cramped at all, as if he had come to his own territory.

"I am Lv Fan, under the order of my lord, I am waiting for General Liu here."

It turned out to be this person.

This Lv Fan is an old minister of the Sun family, and he also has a certain status in the Sun group. Sun Quan sent this person to welcome him, which is not lazy.

"It turned out to be Mr. Ziheng. I've been looking forward to him for a long time."

Lv Fan laughed and said, "My Marquis Wu heard that the general was coming and ordered Lv to clean up the best restaurant. General Liu has worked hard all the way. I will send the general back to the restaurant to rest first."

"It's not a hurry to rest. Presumably Mr. Lu already knows my intention this time, so I think I can meet Wu Hou now and show him my sincerity to marry Miss Sun as soon as possible.

Liu Feng's straightforwardness surprised Lv Fan. He was stunned for a moment and smiled, "It turns out that General Liu wants to marry my Miss Sun, but my Miss Sun is Jin Zhiyuye. How can her marriage be easily settled? General Liu doesn't have to be in a hurry."

He is thousands of miles away from Changsha. It is difficult for Liu Feng to be fully sure when the situation there will change. Of course, he is eager to deal with this marriage.

"Because Miss Sun is a golden leaf, in order to show my sincerity, I have to propose marriage to Wuhou as soon as I arrive at Muling. I hope Mr. Lu can arrange it."

In the face of Liu Feng's insistence, Lv Fan coughed a few times and said with a difficult face, "Well, to tell you the truth, my Wuhou is currently on patrol and is not in Muling for the time being. If General Liu wants to see Wuhou, I'm afraid he will have to wait patiently for a few days."

As soon as Lv Fan's words came out, Liu Feng knew that he was lying. Sun Quan was patrolling outside. The blue-eyed clearly deliberately wanted to drag him away.
