Chapter 52 Liu Biao died in Jingzhou Cao Liusun fought in the Red Cliff (17
Nan Ye, Liu Bei and others arrived in Jiangxia, but Zhuge Liang did not leave immediately, as if they were waiting for someone. Although Zhuge Liang did not have the ability to calculate that Lu Su was coming, he could figure out that the envoys of the Eastern Wu would definitely cross the river to explore the reality of Cao's soldiers. The one who knew Cao's strength best was Liu Bei, who had fought several battles with Cao Cao.
In a secret room in Jiangxia, Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang were talking secretly and only heard Liu Bei say, "The national master ordered us to unite with Jiangdong to fight against Cao Cao, so that the north and the south can compete for benefits. But there are many wise men in Jiangdong. There must be far-term plans. How can they make us get what we want?"
Zhuge Liang said, "Cao Cao attracted millions of tigers to the Jianghan. How can Jiangdong not be afraid? He knew that it would not push us to Cao Cao's side. Liang Jiangdong will be able to annex the two armies with a three-inch tongue. If the Southern Army wins, they will kill Cao Cao to take the land of Jingzhou. If the Northern Army wins, we can take advantage of the situation to take the south of the Yangtze River.
Liu Bei was happy to hear the words: "Sir, this is very high! It's just that it's unbeneousness to attack Jiangnan, and it's better to defeat Cao Cao.
Zhuge Liang said, "Lord, don't worry, Cao Cao is probably defeated in this battle, but the land of Jingzhou may not be obtained by us."
Liu Beiqi said, "Why is this?"
Zhuge Liang frowned and said, "Liang has heard that Guanghua's national division has won a hundred battles. Now that the national division has helped us attack Cao, I'm afraid that Cao's army will be defeated. What I worry about is not this victory, but whether the Guanghua National Division has the heart to annex Jingzhou.
Liu Bei hesitated and said, "The national division has never competed with the princes. If the governors of the four counties in Jingnan do not join the national division, the national division will not attack Jingzhou, and there is no intention of annexing Jingzhou?"
Zhuge Liang shook his head and said, "The national master is by no means as simple as the master thought. If it hadn't been for the early preparation, how could the soldiers and horses of Jiaozhou quickly enter the four counties? How can the national teacher come to assist the master? Without a single soldier, I'm afraid that the national division will be the final winner.
Liu Bei was surprised to hear this and said, "If so, what should I wait?" He knew that in Zhuge Liang's plan, only by getting Jingzhou first can he get Yizhou and then become a three-pointed force. If this first step is not done, Liu Bei really doesn't know if he still has a chance to achieve great things.
Zhuge Liang said, "Master, don't worry! Things may not be as I thought. No matter what, the national teacher is kind to us at this time, and I will go to Jiangdong to test the national teacher before making a final.
The next day, someone came to report to Liu Bei. Jiangdong Sun Quan sent Lu Su to mourn, and the ship had arrived. Zhuge Liang asked Liu Qi, "When Sun Ce died, could Xiangyang send someone to mourn?"
Liu Qi shook his head and said, "Jiangdong has a hatred of killing his father with my family. How can there be no reason for condolences?"
Zhuge Liang said, "In this way, Lu Su's trip is not for mourning, but to listen to military information. I will join forces to fight against Cao and fall on this person. Later, if Lu Su asked Cao Cao how he was, the lord and the prince only didn't know. If he wanted to ask again, the lord could order him to ask me.
Liu Bei asked, "Do you want to invite the national teacher to come and meet?"
Zhuge Liang thought for a moment and said, "The lord can send people to invite him, and it is up to the national teacher to decide if he will come or not."
After the discussion, the three sent someone to welcome Lu Su. Lu Su went to the city to pay a funeral ceremony and presented a gift, and Liu Qi invited Lu Su to meet Liu Bei. Lu Su said, "I have heard the name of my uncle for a long time, and I have no chance to visit him. It's really gratifying to see you today. Recently, when I heard that the emperor's uncle fought with Cao Cao, he must know the reality of Cao's army. Dare to ask how many people there are in the army?
Liu Bei heard that Lu Su really heard Cao Jun's truth and said, "I'm ashamed to say it. My soldiers were slightly small. As soon as I heard that Cao's army was coming, I didn't know the truth of Cao's soldiers.
Lu Su is not easy to fool. How can Liu Bei not know about the details of the fighting between the two armies? So Lu Su asked, "I heard that the emperor's uncle used Zhuge Kongming's plot, and the two fires burned Cao Cao's soul. How could he not know the truth?"
When Liu Bei saw that Lu Su was prepared, he excused and said, "Mr. Zijing can ask Kong Ming to know the details."
Lu Su came to inquire about the truth and asked anyone, so he said, "Where is Kong Ming? I would like to see you."
When Liu Bei heard the words, he ordered Zhuge Liang to come and meet Lu Su. After the ceremony, Lu Su said, "Mr. Jiumu failed to visit, but fortunately, we met at the time of the pressure of the army and the survival of life and death. I don't know if you have any opinions about Cao Jun?
Zhuge Liang shook his fan and said, "I know all about Cao Cao's treachery. I just hate that I can't be defeated, so I should avoid it. What a pity! What a pity!"
Lu Su heard Zhuge Liang say that he had no plan and no soldiers, but he did not show it on his face, but said, "It is not a long-term plan to avoid for a while. If Cao Cao attacks Jiangxia, where will Uncle Huang avoid?"
Zhuge Liang said, "My lord and Jiaozhou Guanghua National Division have an old one, and I want to invest in it."
Lu Su also planned to pull Liu Bei and Liu Qi to fight Cao. As soon as he heard that Liu Bei was going to join Nanye, he said urgently, "The national teacher has not competed with the princes and has known Cao Cao for a long time. How can he offend the court by protecting his uncle?"
As soon as Lu Su finished speaking, a voice came from the door and said, "Although Cao Mengde and I know each other, I can be more friends with Xuande. Now that Cao Mengde's hostage emperor is no longer the hero of that year, and it can't represent the court. Naturally, I will keep Xuande safe and sound.
When everyone heard the words, they looked at the door and saw Nan Ye standing in front of the door, looking at Lu Su with a smile. Lu Su was shocked when he heard Nan Ye's words and stabbed, "Are you the Guanghua Master?"
Nan Ye entered the door and said, "Exactly!" After saying that, he cast his skills on Lu Su Cunxing and take stars.
Zhenglu: Lu Su, Zijing, from Dongcheng County, Linhuai County. Outstanding strategist and diplomat at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty. Lu Su lost his father when he was a child. He has a strong appearance and a bold personality. He likes reading, is good at riding and shooting, and has been deeply admired by the villagers. Zhou Yu asked Lu Su for help because of the lack of food. Lu Su generously gave Zhou Yu a warehouse of 3,000 yuan of grain. From then on, the two became good friends and conspired together. In the Battle of Red Cliff, Liu Kang Cao won the victory. After Zhou Yu's death, Lu Su succeeded him as the governor at the age of 46. Intelligence 96, Politics 95.
Lu Su didn't expect Nan Ye to be here anyway. If Nan Ye really asked Liu Bei to dig away, his plan to fight against Cao would be in no way. However, Lu Su's IQ should not be underestimated. Thinking that Nan Ye had never competed with the princes before, he had a glimmer of hope and asked, "Is the national teacher here to jointly attack Cao with his uncle?"
Nan Ye shook his head and said, "I'm here to fight with Cao Mengde in Jingzhou, just to rescue Xuande. If Xuande joins me, I will keep him safe. If Cao Mengde doesn't come, I will be forced to attack the enemy.
Lu Su's eyes lit up when he heard the words. Nan Ye didn't want to take the initiative to fight with Cao Cao, which was his opportunity, so he said to Liu Bei and Liu Qi, "Although the national teacher can keep the emperor's uncle safe, it is difficult to protect the land of Jingzhou. My grandson is located in Jiangdong, full of soldiers and food, and highly respects the virtuous and salutes. According to my plan, Uncle Huang can send his confidant to Eastern Wu to form an alliance with my general to fight against the Cao army. In this way, we can protect the safety of the emperor and the land of Jingzhou. Isn't it the best of both?
