Different World Card Fight

Chapter 348: Xiangyang

"Could it be related to Sun Wu?" Jiang Jun suddenly said.

Dongwu? Everyone was stunned when they heard this. This possibility was not impossible, but it was not easy to speculate. If the situation in the north was not right, everyone would not intervene rashly. It was a bit difficult.

Needless to say, there is something strange about this. If people act rashly without understanding the situation, they may end up getting stuck in the quagmire, which is not a good thing.

"In that case, Liu Bei is stuck in Jiaozhou and has no time to take care of things here?" Zhang Jue said with a smile.

"That's right!" Jia Xu said with a smile, "I have made some preparations here. I think if you come over, we can take action against Liu Biao in Xiangyang next. What do you think?"

"It's hard to say!" Cao Cao murmured.

"Why do you say that?" Everyone couldn't help but wonder why Cao Cao would say that.

"Have you forgotten who Liu Biao is?" Cao Cao sneered.

"What happened to Liu Biao?" No one responded. Liu Biao was a prince of the older generation, but he was half a generation older than everyone else.

"You only know about Liu Biao as a vassal, but you have not considered Liu Biao's identity in other aspects." Cao Cao laughed. When Liu Biao was young, he received a good Confucian education. He participated in the Taixue student movement and was called one of the "Eight Talents". It is said that Biao and his fellow countymen Zhang Yin, Xue Yu, Wang Fang, Xuan Jing, Gong Chu [Xu] Gong, Liu Zhi, and Tian Lin were eight friends, or they were called the Eight Gu. "Records of Famous Scholars in the Late Han Dynasty" says: Biao and Runan Chen Xiang, whose courtesy name is Zhonglin, Fan Pang, whose courtesy name is Mengbo, Lu Kong Yu, whose courtesy name is Shiyuan, Bohai Yuan Kang, whose courtesy name is Zhongzhen, Shanyang Tan Fu, whose courtesy name is Wenyou, Zhang Jian, whose courtesy name is Fujie, and Nanyang Cen Chao, whose courtesy name is Gongxiao, were the Eight Friends. "Book of the Later Han" also records that Biao and Zhang Jian from the same county were called "Eight Gu", and also referred to Zhang Jian, Cen Chao, Chen Xiang, Kong Yu, Yuan Kang, Tan Fu, Zhai Chao, etc. as "Eight Ji". Liu Biao was once criticized during the Party Imprisonment period together with Zhang Jian from the same county.

After the ban on political parties was lifted, Liu Biao was appointed as an official by General He Jin and recommended to return to the court as the Lieutenant General of the Northern Army.

"Are you saying that this guy might be connected to Confucianism?" Jia Xu asked doubtfully.

"What do you think?" Cao Cao believed it without a doubt and there was no need to guess.

"This is not easy to deal with!" Jiang Jun pondered, "Is it not good for us to turn against them now?" Zhang Tianzhong naturally understood what Jiang Jun meant, but he smiled and said, "It's just a matter of ability here, so it's okay. However, although everyone says it's okay, you also know that this will inevitably lead to hatred between the two sides.

Upper level, at least you must have a personal grudge against the other party."

"That's true!" Jiang Jun said with a smile, "Then we can't make things too awkward with the other party. Let's just wait and see. It would be best if we can avoid it."

"Things are still uncertain, why are you so anxious?" Lu Bu said with a smile: "We should hurry to Xiangyang and find out, but don't say anything else."

"That's true. With our strength, it will be no problem for us to crush the other side!" Cao Cao said with a smile, "Do you want to prepare yourself, or should we set off immediately?"

"Okay, let's not delay. Let's set off immediately!" When everyone heard this, no one spoke up to object. After a little preparation, the group set off. Liu Biao was diligent and studious, and good at independent thinking. At the age of seventeen, Liu Biao once proposed to his fellow townsman and teacher, Wang Chang, the then prefect of Nanyang: "Extravagance does not usurp the superiors, and frugality does not force the subordinates. This is the doctrine of the mean. Therefore, Qu Boyu was ashamed to be a gentleman alone. If you do not learn from the wise teachings of Confucius, but admire the inferior conduct of Yi Qi, you will be left behind in the world!" This passage is a question raised against Wang Chang's overly simple lifestyle, and it fully demonstrates his unique insights. In his youth, Liu Biao did not imitate the then popular style of seclusion in the mountains, but actively devoted himself to official career. He was appointed as a subordinate of General He Jin, and was highly appreciated by He Jin. Later, he was promoted to the position of Lieutenant General of the Northern Army.

In charge of the imperial guards. In the first year of Chuping, Wang Rui, the former governor of Jingzhou, was killed by Sun Jian. He Jin recommended Liu Biao to the court as the governor of Jingzhou, which also showed He Jin's preference for Liu Biao and his affirmation of Liu Biao's ability and talent.

Liu Biao's ability only appeared in the second half of the novel. At that time, he had already reached the top, but he was old and weak. He was unable to maintain the status quo, let alone expand. However, at this moment, Liu Biao could not be in an old state, and even couldn't handle the women and children at home. Moreover, knowing so much, how could he not know those things? I don't know how my power was taken away.

How could they be so corrupt? Would they still tolerate the Cai brothers?

Let's get back to business. There's nothing much for the group to prepare. The only problem is whether there is any military rations. We can just send troops directly.

The march was fast, so it was no big deal. Soon the troops arrived at the city of Xiangyang.

"Those of Liu Biao's subordinates who can come out please come out and meet me, otherwise we will attack the city directly!" Xiahou Yuan took the lead and rushed forward to challenge.

"Who is making a commotion here?" There was a commotion in the city, and then a man on horseback rushed out with a gun, shouting.

"Golden Spear General, Wen Pin!" Xiahou Yuan said with a smile, "You are still like this, always taking the lead when something happens!" Wen Pin, whose courtesy name was Zhongye, was from Wan, Nanyang. He was a famous general of Cao Wei during the Three Kingdoms period. He was originally a general of Liu Biao of Jingzhou. After Liu Biao's death, his son Liu Cong surrendered to Cao Cao. Wen Pin did not meet Cao Cao at first, until Cao Cao summoned him to meet him and asked him why he was late. Wen Pin said that he could not preserve the territory and was ashamed to see people. Cao Cao was moved by the loyalty of his minister. He first choked and then praised him, and still let him guard Jiangxia, let him command the northern troops and suppress Jingjiang. Wen Pin did not disappoint Cao Cao's expectations. When defending Jingcheng, he led troops many times to stop Guan Yu's division, attacked his baggage, burned his warships, and made great contributions. He became one of the generals that Cao Gong relied on as a shield and his reputation spread far and wide. Later, he participated in many expeditions and was successively awarded the title of General Hou and Marquis of Xinye. Cao

During the reign of Emperor Rui, Wen Pin repelled the invasion of Sun Quan in Jiangxia. He was posthumously named Zhuang.

The situation of Wen Pin is similar to that of Zhang Liao, Zhang He and others. After all, he has been following Cao Cao for the second half of his life, so naturally he would be familiar with Cao Cao's old subordinates.

"General Xiahou?" Wen Pin asked in confusion, "I wonder what your army's advance means?"

"Brother Zhongye, it's not that we don't cherish our friendship, but the situation is like this now, and we have no choice but to do it!" Xiahou Yuan said with a wry smile. Although they had some affection for each other, the Xiahou brothers were Cao Cao's die-hard fans and knew the importance of these things.

"Forget it. This matter is not something I can handle. Let the gentleman talk to you about it!" Wen Pin naturally understood the meaning when he heard it, but he said no more.

"Xiahou? Could it be that Prime Minister Cao's army is coming to attack us?"

Then, a clear and gentle voice was heard.

"Kuai Yidu? Sir, you are also a man with far-sighted vision. Can't you see the current situation clearly?" Cao Cao also called out. Kuai Yue, whose courtesy name was Yidu, was from Zhonglu, Xiangyang. He was a descendant of Kuai Tong, a famous minister in the early Western Han Dynasty. He was a man of deep wisdom, outstanding and heroic. General He Jin heard of his name and appointed him as a clerk in the Eastern Cao. Later, Kuai Yue knew that He Jin could not accomplish anything, so he asked to be the magistrate of Ruyang and then returned to Liu Biao. Kuai Yue set a strategy for Liu Biao to pacify Jingchu and assisted him in his cause. He was praised by Liu Biao as "the plan of Jiufan". The Jiangxia thieves Zhang Hu and Chen Sheng gathered their people to defend Xiangyang. Kuai Yue and Pang Ji rode alone to persuade them to surrender, and then the whole of Jiangnan was pacified. Kuai Yue also persuaded Liu Biao to attach himself to Cao Cao, but was not accepted. After Liu Biao's death, his second son Liu Cong succeeded to the throne. Kuai Yue and Fu Xun and others persuaded him to surrender to Cao Cao. After Cao Cao pacified Jingzhou, Kuai Yue surrendered with Liu Cong and was made Guanglu Xun and granted the title of Marquis.

Cao Cao wrote to Xun Yu, saying: "I am not happy to get Jingzhou, but I am happy to get Kuai Yidu." He died in the 19th year of Jian'an.

He is the wisest man in Liu Biao's army. He has extraordinary vision and strategy. At least he can be praised by Cao Cao, which is a kind of affirmation.

In terms of one attribute ability, he is also a god-level in both intelligence and politics. It is unknown whether he has broken through to the great god level. He is definitely a first-class existence. "Even the Prime Minister has come out in person. It seems that it is indeed as I thought. It is time to take sides!" Kuai Yue smiled and said, "But I don't understand why Liu Bei's army is so slow? Could it be that

Is there any other problem? "Everyone was stunned, and then reacted. This does not mean that Kuai Yue was ready to choose Liu Bei, but they were prepared beforehand and had guesses about various things. However, they investigated the situation nearby, so they took Liu Bei's army as the

Referring to and speculating on the situations of all parties, there was some delay and the best opportunity was missed.

"It seems that we made a wrong decision!" Another scholar said, "However, at this point, it is too late to say anything. The only thing we can do is to decide whether to compromise with the prime minister." Kuai Liang, whose courtesy name was Zirou, was from Zhonglu, Nanjun. He was the elder brother of Kuai Yue. He was a resourceful man. The two brothers assisted Liu Biao and helped him succeed. Kuai Liang was proficient in astronomy and was very good at judging horses. Yuan Shu failed to borrow food from Liu Biao, so he sent Sun Jian to attack Liu Biao. Because Sun Jian's army was unstoppable, Liu Biao hurriedly asked Kuai Liang for advice. Kuai Liang said, "Dig deep trenches and build high fortifications to avoid his front. You don't need to rely on Yuan Shao. You can save yourself." Cai Mao was defeated because he did not listen to Kuai Liang's advice. Liu Biao sent Lu Gong to fight. Lu Gong followed Kuai Liang's strategy and set an ambush to shoot Sun Jian, thus relieving Liu Biao's crisis. Later, Sun Ce exchanged Huang Zu for Sun Jian's body, and the two families stopped fighting and stopped invading again. Kuai Liang also advised Liu Biao to kill the envoy and take advantage of the victory to attack Jiangdong.

But Liu Biao did not accept his advice and missed the opportunity.

Kuai Liang was promoted to the position of Minister of Personnel. His son, Kuai Jun, the governor of Nanyang, married the daughter of the commander-in-chief Wang Su and had a daughter, Kuai Shi. Sun Xiu of the Eastern Wu surrendered to the Jin Dynasty, and Sima Yan married Kuai Shi to Sun Xiu. This shows that Kuai Liang served as an official in the Wei Kingdom after surrendering to Cao. When Kuai Liang spoke, he suddenly understood the key point. It was no longer the time to study his own problems, but the time to make a real decision.
