Chapter 223
State Council Office
With countless eyes on, Kuai Yue picked up two wide and long silk books from the table behind him, and handed them to Liu Xian, the first in the left column and Liu Pan, the first in the right column.
After unfolding the silk book and taking a few rough glances, Liu Xian, who was already a little depressed, turned pale in an instant. After insisting on reading it, Liu Xian even passed the silk book to Han Song, who was in the next head with a trembling wrist.
After reading the contents of the silk book, Liu Pan said nothing, but just glanced at Liu Xian opposite him with a happy look.
Half an hour later, two volumes of silk books had been roughly circulated in the hands of the people in the hall. But after reading it, each person's expressions were different, including joy, despair, confusion, and confusion...
These two volumes of silk books are the "Letters of All People" written by the prefect of Zhangling, who was published by the people of the county. The 13 counties under Zhangling jointly invited Liu Bei to take over Jingzhou.
After the two volumes of silk books returned to the table, Kuai Yue raised his eyes and patrolled the hall and said slowly: "This was sent to Xiangyang late last night.
In addition, Nanjun and Shangyong counties also intend to write a letter, and the content should be similar to what you just saw.
Among the four counties of Zhangling, Nanjun, Shangyong and Jingbei, there are actually three counties that need to clearly support Liu Bei. From this point of view, the situation in the five counties south of the Yangtze River is probably similar.
Liu Pan, Huang Zhong, Wen Pin and other military giants have clearly stood on Liu Bei's side; Xi, Huang, Pang, and Yang, the most famous clans in Jingzhou, have also clearly supported Liu Bei; plus the counties and counties...
The hearts of everyone in the hall were bright——Liu Bei took over Jingzhou, and it was almost unstoppable.
Liu Xian kept winking at Han Song, Wang Can, Fu Gan and others, hoping that they could come forward and think of some ways to reverse the current extremely unfavorable situation.
Since Kuai Yue did not want the farce in the last meeting, Liu Hua was not invited to discuss today. Without his son, Liu Xian could only place his last hope on Han Song and others.
But soon, Liu Xian was disappointed.
Han Song, Wang Can and others all had their heads lowered. They were silent, not sure what they were thinking?
"Since the governor of Xianzhou was born in the past, the lord of Jingzhou has been suspended for nearly a month. During this period, people in all counties and counties were flustered, officials were unwilling to govern the government, generals were unwilling to govern the army, soldiers were unwilling to train, and the people were unwilling to farm.
This will cause danger of chaos in Jingzhou and be coveted by enemies outside. If this continues, the state will not be in the state." Kuai Yue saw the expressions and expressions of the people and others. He said in a deep voice, "Therefore, the lord of Jingzhou must be decided as soon as possible.
The governor of Xianzhou (Liu Qi) had no heirs and no brothers. The next lord of Jingzhou could only look for another person from the Liu clan relatives. Who do you think is suitable?"
"If you can do this important task, you must be General Liu Huang Uncle, General Liu!" Liu Pan was the first to go out of the line and said with a loud voice.
"Only Uncle Liu can be the lord of Jingzhou!" Huang Zhong and Wenpin all stepped forward and followed Liu Pan. He said loudly.
"We are willing to recommend Uncle Liu to take charge of Jingzhou!" Xi Xun, Yang Rui and other clan leaders immediately said...
In less than a moment, six out of ten people in the hall had already spoken out to recommend Liu Bei to take over Jingzhou. Only Liu Xian and most civil officials were still silent and without any action.
But soon, the situation was broken.
With Liu Xian's unbelievable eyes, Wang Can slowly stepped out of the line and joined the ranks of recommending Liu Bei.
With one person starting, the other civil servants who were originally engaged in ideological struggle couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief and left one after another with relief, Han Song and Fu Gan...
These civil officials who originally depended on Liu Xian were not steadfast people. The reason why they supported Liu Xian before was that they did not want the martial artist to take charge of Jingzhou, and the other was that they also wanted to seek more benefits for themselves by supporting Liu Xian.
But now, the development of the situation is very clear. It is almost certain that Liu Bei's successor to the lord of Jingzhou is a foregone conclusion. Han Song and others will naturally not hang themselves on Liu Xian's tree. It is wise to change to a new lord.
Soon, only Liu Xian stood in the entire chamber. At this moment, Liu Xian had changed from disappointment to despair.
Looking at the situation in the hall, Kuai Yue was filled with mixed feelings, feeling sad that he was about to lose his beloved, but his expression still maintained his previous solemnity.
Liu Xian alone could no longer cause any storm. Kuai Yue cheered up and immediately announced that he would invite Liu Bei to take over Jingzhou.
Immediately, the ministers of Jingzhou discussed a series of matters with Zhuge Liang to invite Liu Bei to Jing.
And Liu Xian, at some point, left the conference hall alone in a daze.
.
After the meeting was completed, Zhuge Liang politely said goodbye to the ministers and clan leaders of Jingzhou, and then he wanted to return to the inn.
At this moment, Liu Hua suddenly came in anger and held a bag in his hand and didn't know what it was.
Guan Ping knew that the other party had bad intentions and stood up in front of Zhuge Liang.
Several civil servants who had a good relationship with Liu Xian saw that the situation was not good, and were afraid that Liu Hua would do something extreme, so they hurried forward to make an attempt to dissuade him.
Liu Hua ignored the kindness of those people and turned forward. When he approached, he suddenly threw the package in his hand at Zhuge Liang.
Guan Ping had quick eyes and quick hands, his figure flashed, and his sword was unsheathed, instantly slashing the package in half.
"Crash!" Unexpectedly, a ball of liquid spurted out from the broken parcel, pouring Guan Ping over his body. After a closer look, someone found that it was bloody and other filthy.
Guan Ping, who was "bloody", glared at Liu Hua angrily, and his body shook slightly by the anger. The veins in his right hand holding the sword suddenly popped out, and his sharp eyes could almost swallow Liu Hua. But after a moment, Guan Ping endured it.
"Zhuge Liang, you have confused so many people with demonic magic and want to take away the position of the governor of my father. Now it depends on how you use demonic magic. Jingzhou belongs to my father..." Liu Hua said with a strange expression and roared hysterically.
The development of things in the past few days has become increasingly unfavorable to the Liu and his son, and the chances of taking charge of Jingzhou are becoming increasingly slim.
How could Liu Hua, who was proud of the young, withstood such a blow? In a hurry, he thought that Zhuge Liang must have used some magic trick.
Just now, Liu Xian returned home in a daze, and Liu Hua realized that Liu Bei had taken over Jingzhou was a foregone conclusion. Unwilling to fail, he brought up the filth he had prepared before. He came to find Zhuge Liang, hoping to "break" the other party's local demonic magic.
Kuai Yue looked at Liu Hua with regret, and then waved his hand.
Several soldiers hurried forward, raised Liu Hua and left. Liu Hua, who seemed to be in a nightmare, struggled desperately, and completely lost his former demeanor.
"Kong Ming was frightened!" Kuai Yue walked to Zhuge Liang and said apologetically.
"It's okay!" Zhuge Liang chuckled and shook his head, then turned his eyes to Liu Hua's figure being held away...
.
The Liu Hua's dirty incident did not have a great impact on Liu Bei's takeover of Jingzhou.
On April 28th, a letter written by Kuai Yue, jointly invited Liu Bei to take over Jingzhou by his ministers and clan leaders of various major clans, and was sent to Lujiang by Huang Zhong.
…………………………………………………..
On April 30, Huang Zhong rushed to Lujiang.
Council Chamber
After Huang Zhong was fucked by Sun to the inn, the hall immediately became excited.
Unexpectedly, in just over twenty days, Zhuge Liang's plan that day was actually achieved——without a single soldier, a single sword, and a single shot, and he took Jingzhou into his big brother's bag.
(To be honest, Zhuge Liang used some swords and guns to deal with assassination during his trip to Xiangyang, and three soldiers were killed at that time.)
In Xiangyang, where the situation is complicated, facing many forces, including inside and outside Jingzhou, it is simply incredible that Zhuge Liang was able to reach a plan.
"Cleverly use internal disputes in Jingzhou, and use Cao Cao's threat to put pressure on Jingzhou, pick and fight, divide and transform.
If the big Jingzhou was played with by Kong Ming, he would be full of the limelight this time!" Pang Tong, who returned from illness, kept calm and cheerful, laughed.
"Shi Yuan..." Xu Shu looked at Pang Tong and asked him to speak with caution. There were many people in the hall, and if some of Pang Tong's words were heard by the ministers in Jingzhou, it would have some adverse effects.
The eldest brother carefully read the letter Huang Zhong gave and raised his head: "Yuan Zhi, what should we do next?
"Lord. I just received a letter today. Cao Cao has occupied the entire Zhuo County and Yuyang County is in danger. Yuan Tan is preparing to concentrate his troops in Yuyang to fight Cao Cao to the death.
"Xu Shu did not directly answer the elder brother's question, but talked about the situation in Youzhou.
"Yeah?" The elder brother sighed lightly and looked at Xu Shu with some confusion.
"A battle to the death is probably the only one who wants Cao Cao. If the Battle of Yuyang is defeated, Yuan Tan will be unable to resist! From this point of view, Cao Cao will not be far away to pacify Youzhou!" I thought for a moment and figured out Xu Shu's intention.
"As the general said, once Cao Cao is unified in the north, his strength will be unparalleled. At that time, the lord will be forced by Cao Cao in Yangzhou, with only defensive power but no progress.
"Xu Shu nodded and continued my words, "If you want to change this situation, the lord must take Jingzhou as soon as possible and strive to stabilize Jingzhou before Cao Cao unifies the north.
The population of the nine counties in Jingxiang is less than 2 million, and the counties are extremely rich. According to Jingzhou, the lord's strength can be more than doubled, which is enough to compete with Cao Cao.
Moreover, the lord can also attack Jiaozhou in the south and Yizhou in the west, and aim to compete for the Central Plains in the future with a two-part force."
After pausing, Xu Shu said affirmatively: "So, in the opinion of Shu, the lord went to Xiangyang to take over the nine counties of Jingxiang. It is better to be fast than late, and it is better to be fast than slow."
"What the military advisor said is reasonable. Cao Cao has always been afraid of his lord. If he knew that his lord would gain Jingzhou, he would have had some changes. To avoid the slightest slightest, it would be a good idea to take over the power of Jingzhou as soon as possible!" Lu Su said.
"Yeah!" The elder brother pondered for a moment and nodded, "Today, I will make some arrangements for Yangzhou local affairs, and I will set off to Xiangyang tomorrow!"
"Although the ministers in Jingzhou have already regarded the lord as the master, the situation in Jingzhou is still complicated. One may still have Cao Cao's assassins, and the other may also have people who are dissatisfied with the lord.
"Xu Shu suggested, "Shu thought that one of the kings and generals should stay in Lujiang to maintain stability in Yangzhou; one of the people should also follow the lord to Xiangyang to intimidate the ministers in Jingzhou. In this way, one of them can be sure of everything.
That day, Kong Ming asked the general to slow the attack on Jiaozhou, which was for this purpose.
"What the military advisor said is reasonable!" The eldest brother lowered his head and thought for a moment, then said to his second brother: "Chief Yun, you will guard Yangzhou, how about it?"
"Don't worry, brother!" The second brother nodded, and replied briefly but reassuringly.
"Yide, follow me to Xiangyang!" The eldest brother turned his head to look at me again.
"good!"
.
The next morning, I bid farewell to Rong'er and her two children and followed my elder brother to the journey to Xiangyang.
Also traveling to Xiangyang were Pang Tong and Huang Zhong.
Chapter completed!
