I was kicked out by Sun Quan, and I turned to Cao thief

Chapter 33 Jingzhou Liu Biao
Jingzhou, Xiangyang.

Liu Biao was already old at this time, and he suffered from back gangrene when he came in, and when it was cold and hot, he was in pain.

Today, almost all the power in Jingzhou is in the hands of the Cai family.

Cai Mao, the patriarch of the Cai family, is the governor of the Jingzhou navy and Liu Biao's brother-in-law.

These days, Liu Biao suffered from back gangrene again, and it has reached the point where he cannot handle Jingzhou affairs.

Now Cai Mao and Zhang Yun are in charge of all matters in Jingzhou.

Military affairs are handled by Cai Mao, and government affairs are handled by Zhang Yun.

Zhang Yun and Liu Biao are also related, Zhang Yun is Liu Biao's nephew, and Cai Mao is Liu Biao's brother-in-law.

It can be seen from this that Liu Biao employs people by emphasizing relatives, not virtuous people.

At this time, the government office has become a mess.

The news that Cao Jun captured Xiling County, captured Huang Zu, and beheaded Huang She had spread to Jingzhou.

Although Jiangxia was Huang Zu's territory, Huang Zu was nominally subject to Liu Biao.

In this matter, Jingzhou must have an attitude.

At this time, the government office was arguing about this matter.

Wei Yan, Huang Zhong, Wen Pin and other generals thought that they could not ignore it, and they should send troops to rescue Jiang Xia.

The lips are dead and the teeth are cold. Once the whole territory of Jiangxia is taken down by Cao Jun, then Jingzhou will be in danger.

Kuai Yue, Kuai Liang and other ministers of the practical faction also expressed their support for the opinions of Huang Zhong, Wen Pin and others.

However, their support is useless?

Because none of them have real power.

Now, the power in Jingzhou is in the hands of Cai Mao and Zhang Yun, and they can only send troops if they agree to support them.

However, Cai Mao and Zhang Yun are two idiots.

From their point of view, Cao Jun attacked Jiangxia, not Jingzhou, and there was no need for them to fight for Jiangxia, Huangzu and Cao Cao.

Now Cao Cao's power is really too great, looking at the princes of the world, only Yuan Shao can rival Cao Cao.

They in Jingzhou must not offend Cao Cao!

"Send troops, how do you send troops?"

"Sending troops requires armaments, food and grass. How can these things be ready in a short time?"

"It's so sudden, it's impossible to send troops!" Cai Mao directly vetoed the idea of ​​sending troops to support.

Cai Mao and Zhang Yun were wearing a pair of trousers. After Cai Mao became the first bird, Zhang Yun immediately stood up and agreed?
"War requires money and food!"

"Now the treasury is not sufficient, I'm afraid we can't fight a war!"

"Wait, it won't be too late to send troops when this year's food comes out!" Zhang Yun smiled and was living muddy.

Isn't it nonsense to wait until this year's food comes down before sending troops?

When your food this year comes down, the grass on Huang Zu's grave will be ten feet high?
Besides, Jingzhou's treasury is not sufficient, this is purely a fool!
Jingzhou is a land of fish and rice, with a bumper harvest every year. In addition, the wars between the princes of the world have not harmed Jingzhou, and Jingzhou's granaries are full everywhere.

There is no food here, this is clearly Zhang Yun, Cai Mao doesn't want to fight!
After listening to Zhang Yun and Cai Mao's remarks, Huang Zhong, Wei Yan, Wen Pin, Li Yan and other hard-working generals all blew their beards and stared angrily.

However, they took Zhang Yun, and Cai Mao had nothing to do.

In Jingzhou, this is the situation, those who are capable are not reused.Those who are reused are all idiots like Cai Mao and Zhang Yun.

The hot-tempered Li Yan was about to stand up and argue with Cai Mao and Zhang Yun, but Kuai Yue grabbed him and signaled him not to worry.

Kuai Yue knew that it was useless for you to argue about this matter. Cai Mao and Zhang Yun were determined not to send troops.

If you want to send troops, you can only have Liu Biao speak out.

Thinking of this, Kuai Yue winked at the eldest son Liu Qi, which meant to ask Liu Qi to invite Liu Biao over.

Liu Biao has three sons, the eldest son Liu Qi, the second son Liu Cong, and the third son Liu Xiu.

The third son Liu Xiu has no sense of existence, and only the eldest son Liu Qi and the second son Liu Cong are expected to inherit Liu Biao's position.

According to common sense, the emphasis on passing on the position is to establish the elders but not to establish the virtuous.

Since ancient times, not having an eldest son is the way to create chaos.

Because there is only one long, but there can be countless virtuous.

However, sister Cai Mao's son was the second son Liu Cong, which led to the support of Liu Cong by the Cai family.

However, Liu Biao has soft ears, Mrs. Cai often blows the pillow wind in Liu Biao's ears, which really makes Liu Biao think of abandoning the old and making the young.

The eldest son Liu Qi had no choice but to hug Kuai Yue, Kuai Liang and others to keep warm.

Liu Qi understood Mr. Kuai Yue's eyes, took advantage of the confrontation between the two sides, quietly retreated, and went to his father Liu Biao to make the decision.

Liu Qi wanted to send troops to take the opportunity to take Jiang Xia into his pocket, which can be regarded as a career.

Although the nine counties of Jingxiang included Jiangxia County, Huang Zu only surrendered to Liu Biao in name.In fact, Jiangxia has always been Huang Zu's private territory.

Coincidentally, when Liu Qi came to look for Liu Biao, Liu Biao just woke up and his symptoms improved a lot.

"Dad, you are awake!"

"Exactly, I have something to ask you. Outside, Mr. Kuai Yue, General Li Yan, Zhang Yun, and Cai Mao are all about to quarrel." Liu Qi said to Liu Biao.

"Oh!" Hearing these words, Liu Biao asked in surprise, "What happened?"

Liu Biao has been suffering from gangrene these days, and has not dealt with any affairs in Jingzhou for many days.

"Father, the thing is like this, Cao Cao sent people to attack Jiangxia. Now, Xiling County has been captured, and Huang Zu has been captured alive."

"If we don't care about it, I'm afraid it won't take many days for Cao Jun to take down Jiangxia's thirteen counties." Speaking of this, Liu Qi paused and said slowly: "I think so, my lips are dead and my teeth are cold. If we don't care about Jiangxia, just I am afraid that Cao Cao will covet the land of the nine counties of Jingxiang in the future."

"According to the child's wishes, it is better to take the opportunity to send troops to take down Jiang Xia. In this way, Jiang Xia can be regarded as truly included in my Jingxiang nine counties."

When Liu Qi said this, Liu Biao couldn't help nodding, thinking that what Liu Qi said made sense.

Liu Biao knew that Cao Cao had great ambitions.

Therefore, he has also been secretly connected with Yuan Shao these years, just to restrain Cao Cao's development.

However, Liu Biao became more and more timid as he got older. He was just afraid that Cao Cao would plot against his Jingxiang Nine Counties, but he didn't dare to really conflict with Cao Cao.

Therefore, he only communicated with Yuan Shao in secret, and did not dare to really unite with Yuan Shao.

"My son was right!"

"Cao Cao's name is Han Xiang, but he is actually a Han thief. This man is extremely ambitious, and he cannot be allowed to take Jiang Xia down."

"Otherwise, how can I live in peace with a tiger lying on a couch in the land of Jingxiang?" Liu Biao also said very reasonable.

For the eldest son Liu Qi, Liu Biao is actually satisfied.

However, the eldest son Liu Qi's mother died early, and her natal family did not have much influence.

Now, the Cai family and the Zhang family in Jingzhou all support the second son Liu Cong, which makes Liu Biao a headache.
