Chapter 777
"Tell me! What should I do now?"

The situation in Xuzhou collapsed, Liu Bei urgently recruited counselors to discuss.

"Your Majesty, since Cao Cao attacked Xuzhou, Yanzhou must be empty. Your Majesty just took this opportunity to send troops to Yanzhou, and then completely wiped out Cao Cao."

Jian Yong said.

"My lord must not!"

Chen Qun remonstrated: "Not to mention whether our military treasury is full, but how to deal with Cao Cao's young emperor? Kill him or establish him? If he kills him, he will lose the hearts of the officials who are loyal to the Han Dynasty."

"My king already has one-half of the world. He can learn from Emperor Guangwu, proclaim himself emperor in Chang'an, and then send troops to destroy the false emperor established by Cao Cao."

"False emperor? How did you know it was a false emperor? Sun Ce and Liu Biao successively sent envoys to pay tribute, and Fu Wan, Dong Cheng, Liu Ying and other relatives surrounded them. Even the relatives have certain prestige and should not be taken lightly."

"Emperor Xian passed away early, so where did he get his posthumous child? This must be Cao Cao's trick."

"That's why my king should be called emperor to win the hearts of the people of the world."

"good."

"..."

Regarding the matter of Liu Bei proclaiming himself emperor, whether it is the Yingchuan clan, the Hebei clan, or the Kansai gentry, or even the Yizhou gentry and Nanyang clan, they have all reached an agreement. Liu Bei already has one-half of the world, and he is inevitable Even they are already thinking about setting up the capital, the title of the country, the title of the year and other matters.

When Liu Bei heard that they were talking about proclaiming the emperor again, he hurriedly stopped him and said, "Okay, the lonely king is asking you how to solve the Xuzhou matter. Lu Bu asked for help, and the lonely king must not just sit idly by."

Xun Yu came out and said: "Your Majesty, there is not much food and grass left in the treasury, and it can no longer support the battle to destroy Yanzhou. At least we have to wait until after the autumn harvest before launching the battle to destroy Yanzhou."

"My lord, I'm afraid King Pengcheng won't be able to last until then. Cao Cao is very resourceful, and Zhou Yu is a wise man. King Pengcheng can last for half a year. If Cao Jun and Wu Jun are allowed to wreak havoc in Xuzhou, even if they stick to one or two fortified cities, it will be of no great benefit. It's better to let King Pengcheng withdraw from Xuzhou and go to Qingzhou, Cao and Wu armies will fight for Xuzhou."

"Your Majesty, please behead this man."

Fazheng came out and said: "Don't say that Cao Cao is treacherous, how can Zhou Yu be Yi Yi's generation? If the lord does not take Hebei, the two of them will fight for Xuzhou. Now that the king is ruling the world, the two of them must have carved up Xuzhou Therefore, once King Pengcheng withdraws from Xuzhou, it will be difficult to kill him! A certain intention must not be retreated, not only cannot retreat, but also send troops to rescue, forcing Cao Cao and Zhou Yu to withdraw from Xuzhou?"

The man was robbed of his job just now, and he blushed for a while, and said: "Xun Gong has said that the treasury is out of food and grass, how to send troops?"

Fazheng said: "Isn't Cao Cao short of food compared to us? Why did he attack Xuzhou? It's because he didn't know that if he didn't take Xuzhou, he would die. Now the situation is normal. If you don't send troops, let Cao and Wu armies attack Xuzhou. If the king wants to take the land of Huainan again, it will be very difficult!"

"good."

The words of Fa-rectification have won the approval of many bigwigs.

Liu Bei also nodded, and asked Xun Yu: "Can the food in the treasury support a small battle?"

Xun Yu replied: "Of course it is possible. This will definitely affect the master's great cause of reunification."

Liu Bei shouted loudly: "We must not stick to the unification of the world. We have decided to send troops to save Xuzhou."

"Here!"

All the counselors left one by one, Liu Bei left Guo Jia and Jia Xu behind, and said: "Why don't you two old foxes express their opinions, do you think sending troops is not advisable?"

Guo Jiadao: "My lord, the Cao-Sun-Liu alliance seems to be strong, but in fact their alliance is very fragile. As for Xuzhou's trend, although it is unexpected, it is not completely out of control. Xuzhou is in danger, and our army has no food, but Xuzhou has it? Pengcheng Wang Que is the leader of the army, as long as the lord is willing, Gao Shun, Hao Zhao, and Chen Gong from Qingzhou can go south to help in the battle, and the king of Pengcheng will definitely provide food, grass and armor, and this will also help the lord Qiemo win over the nobles of Xuzhou."

Liu Bei nodded: "Following Xiao's words is good, but the alliance of the three armies is not a good thing."

Guo Jia said with a smile: "My lord, if you want to break the alliance, it's not difficult. Liu Biao is cowardly by nature, so you can send Huang Zhong to station in the new field, order General Guan to station troops in Yuguan, and make a declaration of Yizhou. Liu Biao will definitely use Cai Mao again. After this change, Cai Mao must I will rely on my king even more, Liu Biao is nothing to worry about!"

"What about Sun Ce?"

Guo Jia glanced at Jia Xu, Jia Xu still looked like an old god, smiled coldly, with a murderous look in his eyes, and said: "Sun Ce was born in martial arts, and he relied more and more on his own martial arts. I once heard that he relied on martial arts. With few guards to protect him, killing him is nothing more than an assassin."

After listening to Liu Bei, he suddenly thought that after Guo Jia gave Cao Cao this idea, Sun Ce died soon after.

Jia Xu finally said: "Sun Ce is critically ill, and he will definitely send someone to look for Sun Quan. His son is not young enough to support the overall situation. Sun Quan cannot determine the situation in Jiangdong."

"At that time, my lord will be able to carry out the old affairs of Yizhou again."

Guo Jia smiled with satisfaction.

Liu Bei patted the table and said: "Okay, I will leave this matter to you. It must be done cleanly and quickly. You must not have anything to do with this king?"

"My lord, don't worry, someone will go south to Jiangdong tomorrow."

"Go!"

Guo Jia secretly went south to Jiangdong, and Chen Zhen left Chang'an again, but this time he brought not only Liu Bei's intention, but also some will.

For example, Huang Zhong stationed troops outside Xinye City, for example, Chen Dao stationed troops in Xinxi, Li Yan returned to Yizhou, and Guan Yu wanted to leave from Bajun. It looks like Cao Wu took Xuzhou, Jin army took Jingzhou, two exchanges?
Liu Biao hurriedly asked Cao Cao and Sun Ce for help. Sun Ce was in a hurry to attack the Lujiang River. Besides, Sun Liu had a grudge against him. He wished to see Liu Biao defeated, and then eat a piece of fat in Jingzhou.

Cao Cao also told Liu Biao that the Jin army was only acting as a gesture and would not go south.

Only then did Liu Biao panic. Cao Cao and Sun Ce had sold themselves. As a last resort, Liu Biao hired Cai Mao again, but Cai Mao didn't.

Liu Biao had no choice but to ask the Cai family. Finally, under the intimidation of the Cai family, he prepared the eldest son to Chang'an and made Liu Cong his son.

Only then did the Cai family return to Cai's house satisfied. Cai Mao started an incident. As soon as Cai Mao came out, he immediately seized the military power in Jingzhou, and appointed Wang Can and other pro-Jin factions to take power.

However, in view of the failure of the previous round, Cai Hao knew how to restrain himself this time, and stopped being domineering. Instead, he did not dismiss the officials appointed by Liu Biao, but sent someone to invite the gentry who had heard him resign from the mountain.

Cai Mao's low profile immediately aroused cheers. The gentry in Jingzhou had always loved the Jin army, and now they are even more close to the Jin army. However, Liu Biao really fell ill after this toss.

When Liu Biao was ill, Cai Mao became more and more low-key. As long as Liu Biao died and Liu Cong succeeded, this Jingzhou would be the Jingzhou of the Cai family, and Cai Mao would be able to sell himself a good price. Therefore, facing the upcoming Chen Zhen, Cai Mao became more and more welcome, and even went to Hanshui in person I went to pick up Chen Zhen.
