Heroes in the Three Kingdoms - C270

Speaking of the previous chapter, when Chen Zhi saw that Song Zhong was here, he swallowed his words. I understand what Chen Zhi means, but I’m not sure about one thing. I asked Song Zhong: “Since Jingzhou created a new master, how could you, a subject, be captured by our army far away from Xiangyang?”

When Song Zhong heard this, he trembled even more violently. The fear in his heart caused him to have no choice but to speak truthfully: “Qi-mother and I were sent to Dong Zhuo to surrender! On the way back, he did not expect that the your army would actually obtain it! Sigh! And Qi’s mother was killed in the rebellion … ” “What!?” Please surrender to Dong Zhuo! ” Song Zhong’s words were much more shocking than what Li Xiong had said earlier. I cried out loudly in surprise, shocked, and this shout also interrupted Song Zhong’s words. Although Li Xiong had already said it before, but it was from the person involved that I received a lot of stimulation.

After a moment, Li Xiong said: “Fourth brother, did you kill Song Zhong?” I scolded Song Zhong loudly: “Shameless bastard like you, you even soiled my blade by chopping it! Get the hell back to me! ” Song Zhong fled with his arms around the head of a mouse.

I turned and asked Li Xiong: “Big Brother, why did you go to the Xiangyang to capture Song Zhong?” Li Xiong patted Chen Zhi’s shoulder and replied: “This is all thanks to Second Brother. Second Brother thought that we should scout out the enemy and sent more people to hide within the enemy’s territory! “Seeing that Song Zhong and the others were not right and that the entire Xiangyang had become extremely strange, our spies captured Song Zhong and killed him because of the resistance from Qi-mother.” “So that’s how it is!” I see.

Li Xiong even took out the < Final > book from his chest pocket and gave it to me, saying, “Fourth Brother, this is the < Five Classic > book written by Liu Biao and Song Zhong. I can roughly flip through this book! “Just accept it!” “Alright!” I took it and took it, and got it.

Chen Zhi had something to say to me, but just as he was about to speak, Zhang Tie ran in anxiously: “Liu Yan has brought everyone here!” Hearing that Liu Yan had led a large group of people over, I turned pale with fright. I could only press the button on the Jingzhou and judge Liu Yan’s side first.

“Liu Yan is here? Wasn’t Liu Yan in a great battle between Yizhou and Liu Bei? Why is he here? He wants to declare war on our army? ” I was astounded by the news. Zhang Tie looked at me, and said: “Fourth brother, the reason why Liu Yan came here, even more so, you wouldn’t have thought of!” What? Unimaginable? He’s not here to fight me? So what else can he do? ” I was surprised.

“Come surrender!” Zhang Tie’s bland words startled everyone present. I was extremely surprised, as I did not dare believe what I had heard, and wanted to confirm it: “What? Third Brother, what did you say just now? ” Tie Zheng said each word clearly, “Liu Yan has come to surrender!” Liu Yan surrendered? Am I hearing things? ” After all, Liu Yan had always wanted to be an emperor. The reason he came to the Yizhou was because he heard from others that the Yizhou was auspicious and had the faint appearance of an emperor. He actually gave up his Emperor’s Dream to surrender? I don’t believe it! He really couldn’t believe it!

Tie Ta nodded his head and said: “It is absolutely true, Liu Yan’s messenger is outside! He actually sent his own son, Liu Zhang, here as an envoy, one could only imagine how genuine his surrender was! Adding the scouts’ report, Liu Yan had already lost continuously in the battle with Liu Bei, he might have been forced to the end of his road before coming to surrender to us! ”

I looked at the map on the wall and muttered softly to myself, “Dong Zhuo obtained the Jingzhou that Liu Biao occupied, and Liu Bei became the master of the Yizhou. Sun Jian’s power in Yangzhou is also incomparably strong, at times, he just wants to bring the two prefectures into his territory. My territory is in the midst of four battles, the most important thing is to increase my strength! ”

When Chen Zhi heard my words, he expressed his own opinion, “Fourth brother, I think we should surrender to Liu Yan, because Liu Yan is at the end of his road and he is being chased by Liu Bei. Furthermore, the Yizhou County he is from is also where Meng Huo and the other barbarians are. Furthermore, we have placed Liu Yan under our control! Slowly melt away his strength, and truly turn Liu Yan’s power into mine! This way, our army’s strength will be greatly increased! In the future, it will also be convenient for us to occupy the entire Jingzhou and then head north to seize the Central Plains! Furthermore, if we do not take in Liu Yan, he will be forced into a corner by Liu Bei, and Liu Bei will not force him into a desperate situation. At that time, we have Liu Yan as a strong rival! Not taking them in is their way of doing things! ”

I nodded. “What second brother said is extremely true!” I turned to the iron wall and asked, “Then where is Liu Biao now?” Tie Feng pointed at the map and said, “[Note 1] They are waiting for your reply to enter the Jiao Prefecture!”

I laughed and said, “Good! Quick, invite Ji Yu in! I want to treat him well! “Hurry up and leave!” After entertaining Liu Zhang with everyone, I offered my condolences to Liu Zhang.

After sending Liu Zhang off, I hastily gathered a group of generals to discuss, with my hands on my hips, I said to the rest: “Everyone, an enormous change has happened in the Ju Yi Prefecture, do you all know?” The crowd was puzzled, they didn’t understand what I meant.

I then told everyone in detail about Liu Biao’s death and how the Cai family, who was in charge of the Jingzhou, wanted to give the Jingzhou to Dong Zhuo as well as how Liu Yan had no choice but to surrender himself to us.

After waiting for everyone to calm down, I looked at the crowd and asked in an inquiring tone, “What do you all think should happen in this situation?” Because of the situation with the Prophet, Chen Zhi was able to analyze the current situation and think of a countermeasure during this period of time. Since he already had a plan, he was the first to step forward and said, “Fourth Brother, I think that we should send ambassadors to Xiangyang to request for peace. We had to hide the matter of Liu Yan coming over to join the battle and stated in the Xiangyang that we were attacked by Liu Yan and were resisting Liu Yan, so we had Cai Mao and Liu Cong focus their attention on him. After all, Liu Qi is the eldest son and the heir in law, and furthermore, Liu Qi will not tolerate Liu Cong giving over his father’s inheritance to others! Liu Cong, Cai Mao and the others were still on pins and needles because of Liu Qi, and would not easily let him go. Liu Qi only had one county, and Jiang Xia was the vanguard against him. After Huang Zu’s huge defeat, there weren’t many soldiers left in Jiang Xia either. We will then inform Liu Qi that Liu Yan’s strength has increased tremendously when we send him over, and then dispatch some people who can speak to him to persuade him. Liu Qi is afraid of Liu Cong, and is afraid of being killed, he will definitely come to surrender! ”

I looked at Chen Zhi and asked, “Second brother, are you confident?” Chen Zhi laughed out loud, and said with a smile: “My lord, don’t forget that Liu Qi is weak. Liu Qi’s surrender! Also, it’s very easy for Liu Qi’s Jiangxia Tribe to be integrated into our army! After Liu Biao’s death, the Jingzhou was divided into two, and the hearts of the people could not rest at ease. As long as the soldiers under Liu Qi were generous with their efforts, it would not be difficult to get them to return to their families! We should mourn for Liu Biao, mourn for him and carry out the ceremony of burying Liu Biao deeply in order to pay homage to the people of the Jingzhou and to the hearts of the warriors! After all, Liu Biao’s governance of the Jingzhou is still a matter of public record. For him to be able to use his own strength, it can also be considered as a form of respect! ”

“Ha ha!” I laughed out loud, because according to what I said, with Liu Yan and Liu Qi’s power, I would have enough strength to fight against Dong Zhuo who is about to invade! It’s a big problem that has been bothering me for a long time, but I can’t help it. It’s not easy to get rich all of a sudden, let alone to keep up with the hostile forces that want to annex me.

But I still sighed at Liu Biao, just like how Jia Xu who was once his subordinate said: “Biao, the three masters of this world, you can’t do anything, there’s nothing wrong, there’s nothing wrong, there’s nothing wrong, nothing at all, nothing at all.” Back then, when Shi Xie and I were fighting over the Jiao Prefecture, if Liu Biao wasn’t so hesitant that he wouldn’t bring his troops down south, then I wouldn’t be able to occupy the entire Jiao Prefecture. But now, I can’t form a situation where I can’t fight against him, and I can’t defeat him multiple times! It was precisely because he was the one overseeing the Jingzhou and not bidding for tomorrow that one faction after another were allowed to grow. It was the same for Jiangdong Sun Jian and myself, as they sat behind him, I further started to fight with him for the Jingzhou. Even though I was lamenting, I was still more excited than lamented.

Note 1: Qi (qi, second sound) and Song Zhong, the Confucian Scholars who were called by Liu Biao in the third sound of his mother’s kai, wrote the sentences of the Five Classics.

[Note 2]: Yizhou County, Martial Emperor City, Yuanfeng for two years (109 B.C.). Yizhou County and Yizhou were two completely different concepts. According to the article “Jianning” in “The Origin of Words”, it said, “Jianning, county name, Han Yizhou County. The Han Dynasty of Shu changed to the Jianning County and treated the Taste County (Qujing City). ” And according to “The Will of the Huayang Nation to the South and the Central”, “Building a future for three years”, “In order to flatten the four counties, change the Yizhou to become Jianning, and take Li Hui as the taiwai … Touch County. ” Only after Zhuge Liang had settled on the Southern Barbaric Meng Huo did he change the Yizhou County to the Jianning County. Zhuge Liang divided seven administrative regions according to the specific situation of the southern and central nationalities, which were known as the “seven counties of the southern and central regions”. Xinggu County was separated from the Jianning County (Yizhou County) and approached it, that’s why I said in my novel that Liu Yan entered the Jiao Prefecture from there.
