Kuai Liang came in and said: "General Cai is here!"

Liu Biao's face was gray. He was indeed ill, but how should I put it? As people get older, they are more or less sick. In addition, they are irritated and feel a little uncomfortable. It is inevitable, but it is not what they show to the outside world.

Unable to get up, seriously ill.

Therefore, even if Liu Biao doesn't have to pretend too much, his face still doesn't look good.

After listening to Kuai Liang's words, Liu Biao returned to the couch and lay down. He didn't even have to show off, he just looked like he was seriously ill.

Kuai Liang had no time to say anything and withdrew.

Cai Mao had already invited An into the inner room. When he saw Liu Biao's expression, looking like he was breathing out but not taking in, he couldn't help but shed tears and said, "Brother-in-law, why are you here!? What a shame that Yuan Shao made his brother-in-law so angry. Everyone in Jingzhou has always been the only one."

Yuan Shao looked up, but unexpectedly he turned against Jingzhou because of a statement. This hatred, this betrayal, this is a sign of irreconcilability!"

Liu Biao thought to himself that why Yuan Shao turned against him, it was because he no longer trusted Jingzhou. After all, Jingzhou is now in a precarious situation, and it is very possible to take advantage of the power of Xuzhou and Liu Bei. Yuan Shao no longer trusts Jingzhou, so

After seeing the message, he was naturally angry with Liu Biao for breaking his promise, so he used it to sever the relationship and sever the alliance. That's all!

Similarly, Jingzhou is also a target, a target that did not listen to Yuan Shao and was eventually abandoned by him.

Yuan Shao was establishing his trust and prestige, and then led the princes to kill Cao Cao. These things outside are not so much a war of words, but they are borrowing from Jingzhou. Yuan Shao is establishing his prestige over his followers, that's all.

And Jingzhou is just the unlucky flag that was hoisted!

In a verbal war of words, no one can ever convince anyone, and no one can win or lose. And the final result of this war of words will be a decisive battle. It should still be blamed on the war.

If you lose, even if you are benevolent, righteous and moral, it will be of no use if you live up to your heart.

If you win, you can use your anger to revise your morality itself.

During this period of "serious illness", Liu Biao thought all of this clearly!

Liu Biao just shook his hands, patted Cai Mao's hand, and wanted to say something, but he just gasped and closed his eyes. He was really angry, and he couldn't let go just thinking about it.

"Brother-in-law values ​​​​love and loyalty, but Yuan Shao will eventually betray his righteousness. Such people will eventually be abandoned by the princes," Cai Mao said: "Brother-in-law, don't think too much, it is better to rest peacefully and take care of yourself. Jingzhou still relies on brother-in-law.

!"

Liu Biao nodded and said happily: "I can rest assured that you are here for foreign affairs. Everything depends on you. Thank you for your hard work!"

"This is Mao's responsibility. I would never refuse. It is Mao's sin to let my brother-in-law work hard while he is recuperating!" Cai Mao said.

Liu Biao nodded and said: "Otherwise, I'm not worried. I'm just worried that there will be a rift between you and your good brother Xuande. If I don't deal with it, I'm afraid you won't get along, which will make me worried..."

"Brother-in-law, don't worry!" Cai Mao was overjoyed when he saw Liu Biao taking the initiative to bring up the topic. If he brought it up first, he would look suspicious. It would be better to let his brother-in-law do it. He is very affectionate and appears to be reasonable, which makes him even more popular with Liu Biao.

"Yuan Shao betrayed the alliance, and Mao was very anxious, fearing that others would add insult to injury and harm Jingzhou. In the past, my brother-in-law was strong, so there was no need to worry, but in this situation, if Mao has selfish motives again, he would be betraying the overall situation," Cai Mao said: "Although Mao didn't like Liu Xuande very much, he still knew that he could defend Jingzhou. He was so beneficial to his allies, so how could he bear to hurt him? At this critical moment, Mao suggested that we invite Liu Xuande to come to Jingzhou to discuss the matter of defending Jingzhou. In order to calm the hearts of the people, I wonder what my brother-in-law wants?!"

"Very good!" Liu Biao said: "If you can have this idea, I am very relieved. De Gui, only harmony can keep Jingzhou. If we are at war with each other, sooner or later we will be plotted by others from outside. Do you have this in your heart? This consideration shows peace of mind!"

He was relieved at first and said: "Just in time, I have written a letter to call Xuande to come to Jingzhou. I also have something to discuss with him. If you can fix it, it will be a great thing!"

Cai Mao's heart skipped a beat, could Liu Biao really want to give Jingzhou to Liu Bei?!

He didn't show it on his face, but he smiled and said: "That's right. If everyone works together, Jingzhou will be fine. My brother-in-law wrote to Mao, and Mao sent someone to Xiangyang. Xiangyang is very close to here, and it only takes three days. Xuande It’s bound to come. Brother-in-law, I can just wait with peace of mind!”

"Yes!" Liu Biao said, "Degui writes for me."

How can Cai Mao agree? This letter must be written by Liu Biao to be convincing. Otherwise, as soon as he writes, will Liu Bei still dare to come?! If he wants to deceive him, Liu Biao must write it, and even if he can't, Kuai Liang must do it. It is more convincing if you write it yourself.

He then said: "Why don't we let Zirou do the writing for us to avoid Xuande's doubts?"

Liu Biao originally meant to test it, but when he saw him responding like this, he became even more sure. He nodded with an expressionless face and called Kuai Liang to write for him. Liu Biao used the seal, and Cai Mao put it away and said he would send someone to do it. After sending Liu Biao away, he asked Liu Biao to rest in peace and recover, and then hurriedly left.

Liu Biao got up. Although Kuai Liang knew that he was not seriously ill, his body was still a little ailing, so he supported him and said: "My lord, it's better to calm down!"

Liu Biao smiled bitterly and said: "Zirou, look at it, he and I are testing each other, plus Liu Bei, the three parties are testing each other, it is a game. Looking back on the past and looking at the current situation, I feel quite ironic! ”

He beat his chest and said: "No matter what, everyone has their own thoughts. Although I am sick, it's not that I don't have ears and don't know about external things... When people grow old, and when they are about to die, they are all alone." Everyone can't sit still. Who cares about my dying words and my last words? Foreign ministers and generals are all vying for power and taking sides, but Cai Hao is eager to eradicate dissidents, consolidate power, and establish Jingzhou. How could he know that even if he wins? So what about Jingzhou? Cong'er, his wife, orphans and widowed mother, how can he, a relative, stop the bloody annexation by outsiders?! He, he, has a very small structure and cannot become a big weapon, and Liu Xuande, Liu Bei... don't mention it Whatever!"

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!

Liu Biao hated him for secretly forming an alliance with Cao Cao. Such a person is too ambitious! How could such an ambitious person only see Jingzhou?!

Liu Bei and Cai Mao are two kinds of people. One is too focused on the inside, and the other is too focused on the outside. This person who values ​​the inside does not know how to defend Jingzhou. He is only a hindsight to the situation and other things, which affects his judgment. If he puts profit first, it will be easy.

Those who are conceited will miss important things. Those who value foreign affairs can abandon Jingzhou temporarily for the sake of the so-called overall situation.

At this time, what did Liu Biao hate? It was the desolation of those who had no one to trust!

This is the feeling of powerlessness that a hero feels in his old age. If he were in his prime, what would he be afraid of?! Are he still afraid of not being able to suppress these people's hearts and these stakes?!

This is the feeling of powerlessness of a hero in his old age. He, an old lion, can no longer lead these men in their prime. They all have their own positions and thoughts!

"My lord, Liang Liang has long said that the situation is bound to come to this. Cai Mao is short-sighted and will come to this," Kuai Liang said: "This matter may not be without Xuzhou's plan. Xuzhou has long regarded Jingzhou as a treasure, so my lord might as well just push the boat forward."

.Everything depends only on the lives of the two of them. If there is a loss, death or failure, it is all their own responsibility. If there is no damage to them, and the lord is seriously ill without knowing it, who can be blamed?!"

Of course Liu Biao also meant this, and said: "Okay, let the two of them fight. I just pretend that I can't see it and don't know everything. Zirou should not participate in government affairs these days."

Kuai Liang had already delegated government affairs to his subordinates under the pretext of taking care of Liu Biao.

Of course he had to avoid suspicion. Otherwise, it would be unjustifiable to say later that he didn't even know about it. It would be better to push it aside and pretend to be innocent when the time comes, so that he won't bear the reputation of hiding something.

His reputation didn't matter, he was just worried that it would implicate Liu Biao, and mistakenly thought that his confidant had obtained Liu Biao's instructions to accomplish this matter.

The Lord humiliated his ministers and died. Kuai Liang was very loyal to Jingzhou and Liu Biao. He had been looking for a real way out and future for Jingzhou. What is a truly trustworthy person? It may not be himself, and it may not be someone who looks orthodox.

Allies may actually be enemies that look down upon.

Kuai Liang said: "Lord, don't worry, I will stay here every day on good days. If I have something to do, it has nothing to do with Liang."

Liu Biao sighed: "I don't know how many people are secretly helping Liu Bei."

Who knows?!

What is meant by righteousness, it may just be for profit, speculation, or secretly investing in someone with a more promising future.

Cai Mao came out with the letter and looked for Mrs. Cai again, saying: "Sister, my brother-in-law may really want to entrust Jingzhou to Liu Bei, but what he said is wrong!"

When Cai Mao talked about the conversation, Mrs. Cai immediately sensed a hint of temerity, but she didn't realize that Liu Biao meant to sit back and watch the fight between tigers and tigers.

When a person speaks, sometimes the unspoken words are what he really wants to say.

And when a person listens to the words, he may not be able to understand the original meaning of the speaker, but only understands the unspoken sounds according to his own understanding.

It is precisely because of this that misunderstandings arise, and some strategies facilitate this and actually promote it.

When Mrs. Cai heard this, she was filled with hatred and said, "Liu Bei must die this time!"

"Sister, don't worry, I'll keep it secret and there won't be any accidents!" After Cai Mao said this, he went out.

After sending the letter to Liu Bei, he wrote back to Chen Deng, saying that if Xiangyang has the intention to attack Jingzhou, please Xuzhou not to miss the opportunity to attack Xiangyang's troops.

Once this letter is sent, it cannot be taken back.

However, Cai Mao's counselor prepared his luggage and wanted to leave. He did not dare to go to Xiangyang, for fear that Cai Mao would think he was going to report a message and kill him.

However, he still said sadly and angrily: "If this plan is successful, it will be equivalent to sending Xiangyang to Xuzhou. Xiangyang is the gateway to Jingzhou. If Liu Bei dies, who can defend Jingzhou?! Sorry, short-sighted people are incapable of planning!

Xuzhou really won Jingzhou without any effort... Hateful!"

On the contrary, several people wanted to escape with him. A few kept their promise and prepared to run away. They agreed to go to the north. They inevitably disguised themselves as refugees. Thinking of this situation, they shed tears again, "If this plan fails... Liu Bei must

Whether it is to withdraw from Xiangyang or to open the door to Huainan, what is it if it is not given away in vain?!"

What a good Chen Deng, so treacherous and calculating, so hateful!

Go and vote for him?! Not willing to do so.

Thinking about it, there is nowhere to go, so why not go to Hanzhong!

Then we took the small road and headed towards Hanzhong.

When Chen Deng received the letter, he wrote to Xu Shu, telling him to keep a close eye on Liu Bei's troops. If he could kill them, he would kill them. If Cai's plan failed, Liu Bei would flee and must be intercepted and killed. No mercy! Otherwise!

There will be great harm in the future! If he goes to Shu, it will be difficult to destroy him in the future.

As long as he doesn't leave Shu, he will be a serious problem forever!

When Xu Shu received the letter, he quickly arranged for troops and secretly transferred Yuan Yao, Lady Guo and Lu Qing back.

He took one look at the lineup of his army and felt a little worried. After another calculation of Ji Ling and others who were guarding Pi City, he said: "If Liu Bei dies, we can still fight. Just drive away Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, and then

It's harmless. You can even collect it for your own use." Although it is unlikely that these two people will join Lu Bu.

"If Liu Bei had not died at Cai's hands, would we, the generals, have any plan to stop the three brothers?! Especially Generals Guan and Zhang?!" Xu Shu said.

Yuan Yao glanced at Lady Guo and Lu Qing and said: "These two are very brave. If you encounter the enemy in battle, remember not to be careless! If you can kill Liu Bei, you will kill him. If you can't kill him, you will drive him out of Xiangyang. From now on, he will

It will not harm Xuzhou for the time being, which is already a benefit. Do you know?!"

"Yes!" Lady Guo and Lu Qing said: "Guan and Zhang will protect Liu Bei. We will fight to the death with him and will not let him leave easily!"

Yuan Yaodao said: "If Liu Bei had not died, then Cai Mao would be so vicious that he would send troops to pursue him vigorously, cooperate internally and externally, and attack each other from the front and back. Even if these three people are really lucky, they may not be able to lose their troops! If they can defeat their strength, that is also true.

Great job!"

Xu Shu nodded. Like Yuan Yao, he and Yuan Yao both believed that you should never chase after a poor enemy.

If Liu Bei died in Cai's hands, it goes without saying.

If he is not dead, even if he intercepts and kills him, he may not be successful. The battle between trapped animals will be extremely brutal. It is hard to say whether Guan and Zhang are brave enough to be his opponents.
