"My lord, the last time our five-way lords joined forces to attack Liu Rui, but failed miserably. In the final analysis, it was because we did not act carefully enough, and the feudal lords had different plans, which led to Liu Rui's defeat." Wei Yan cupped his hands and said. , but what he said caused everyone in the field to discuss in an instant.

Then Cai Mao sneered and said sarcastically: "General Wen Yuan is so loud, but you can tell me how the last time the princes joined forces to be undefeated?"

"This question is too simplistic!" Wei Yan bowed to the crowd and said, "If Jiangdong's Sun Ce was not greedy and delusional, and killed Liu Rui as soon as he arrived in Jiangdong, how could there be so many behind him? matter?"

"Exactly! Exactly! What General Wen Yuan said is very true!" When Wei Yan's words sparked a discussion in the crowd, many generals in the army nodded repeatedly.Lazy people listen to the book www.lanren9.com

"Besides, if we didn't implement the strategy of dividing our troops and unite the five-way army into one, then Liu Rui would not be able to resist the allied forces of the princes even if he had the advantage of the city! In the end, it's not the princes who thought about it. If you can break through Liu Rui's defense by yourself, you can go to the north to grab territory, otherwise what will Liu Rui do to stop our coalition?" Wei Yan's words made more people nod and praise.

A few more generals came out and knelt down. Behind Wei Yan, they all cupped their hands and said, "My lord, the last general and others are willing to fight to the death!"

Liu Biao looked at Cai Mao, then at Wei Yan, then nodded and said solemnly: "What the two generals said makes sense, but this matter is very important, whether it is a battle or a surrender, I need to think carefully a bit!"

Then Cai Mao saw that Liu Xian was swaying again, and immediately said anxiously: "Lord think twice! If Liu Rui's army comes to commit the crime, when it comes to discussing the matter before the battle, I am afraid even if the lord surrenders , and it won't end well!"

But I didn't want Cai Mao's voice to fall when someone laughed and said: "General Cai Mao's words are bad, then Liu Zhang surrendered before the battle... No, I heard that he was arrested before the battle, even so , then Liu Rui didn't dare to kill Liu Zhang. Thinking of him as a Han family, it's still a bit of an estimate for his relatives in the royal family. If the killing is too heavy, it will inevitably make people despised!"

Cai Mao was stunned for a moment, and when he looked at Liu Biao again, he found that Liu Biao was already a little impatient.Cai Mao has followed Liu Biao for many years, and he naturally knows that Liu Biao no longer agrees with his suggestion at this moment, and he will not say more now, but just cupped his hands and said: "My lord, there are still millions of civilians in Jingzhou. In the name of benevolence and righteousness! Even if it is for the sake of the people of Limin, please think twice before doing anything!"

At first glance, Cai Mao's words were to persuade Liu Biao to take care of the people, but everyone present knew that Cai Mao was threatening Liu Biao with his family status!

Liu Biao naturally heard it, and felt unhappy in his heart. Just as he was about to speak, he heard Wei Yan open his mouth and drink: "The lord is a benevolent and righteous prince, and he should help the world. Only in this way can the name be justified. If you surrender without a fight, Isn't it a joke for nothing?"

At the same time, Wei Yan kowtowed heavily and said, "There is a saying that you need to raise troops for a thousand days and use them for a while. The last time our army suffered a disastrous defeat, the soldiers and soldiers were full of energy. If the lord surrenders without a fight, I am afraid that the soldiers will be at that time. It is inevitable that you will be dissatisfied!"

Wei Yan's words were speaking with the soldiers in his hand, but Liu Biao did not get angry because of this, but looked at Wei Yan with a serious face, and then said, "General Wen Yuan doesn't need to be angry, I said that I will consider it. , I will definitely consider it, today’s round for everyone is like this for the time being, and when I wait until tomorrow, I will definitely give you an answer.”

After hearing Liu Biao's words, many of the civil and military members in the field stopped talking and resigned, and Cai Mao glared at Wei Yan before leading many civil and military members of the Cai family to leave in anger.

Liu Biao looked at the various expressions of the crowd, and only felt a pain in his head. He couldn't help rubbing it. It was at this moment that he saw a person returning to the door again. After seeing the person clearly, Liu Biao was He was pleasantly surprised: "Zhongda, you didn't say a word during the discussion just now. I knew that you must have an idea in your heart. You were about to find someone to call you, but you came back by yourself."

Sima Yi cupped his hands and smiled and said, "There are many civil and military personnel present, and some words are really inconvenient for everyone to hear."

549: Sima's Advice

Sima Yi's words instantly lifted Liu Biao's spirit.Since Sima Yi entered Jingzhou, Liu Biao has felt the changes that have taken place in Jingzhou under Sima Yi's governance. Many problems that had made Liu Biao incomparably difficult before were easily solved by Sima Yi.

Hearing Sima Yi say this, Liu Biao knew that Sima Yi had his own ideas, and immediately said anxiously: "Zhongda don't betray you, talk quickly."

"My lord, in the entire Jingzhou, everyone can surrender, but you cannot." Sima Yi's first sentence made Liu Biao pale in shock.

To be honest, when Cai Mao persuaded before, Liu Biao was a little bit tempted, but he had been a master for a long time, and naturally he was not willing to live that kind of life.Besides, if Liu Biao surrendered, the best outcome would be to be placed under house arrest by Liu Rui in the palace just like Liu Zhang.

Hearing Sima Yi's words, Liu Biao frowned and said, "Why did Zhong Da say this?"

Sima Yi bowed his hands, and said indifferently: "Liu Rui's heart is known to the world. It is better to say that it is the country of Liu Rui."

Liu Biao nodded, and heard that Sima Yi continued to speak: "Now that the princes stand side by side, Liu Rui still needs the title of the emperor, and he doesn't dare to do things that go too far, but the lord should also know who the emperor is today. What kind of virtue, this world, in the final analysis, is Liu Rui's world."

"After Liu Rui eliminates the princes, I'm afraid he will take that step." Sima Yi sighed, and then smiled bitterly: "My lord, if Liu Rui arrives at that time, do you think he will let you go? Will he? Let go of your descendants?"

Liu Biao was stunned for a moment, and then he said: "He Liu Haosheng really dares to do such a treacherous thing?"

Sima Yi nodded heavily and said solemnly, "It's not a question of whether you dare, but when you will do it."

Liu Biao was silent, and after thinking for a long time, he sighed: "What Zhongda said is very true, if that time comes, I am afraid that Liu Rui will start a killing spree and kill the entire royal family in the world. Only in this way can he stabilize him. rule!"

Sima Yi raised his head and said solemnly, "So the lord must never surrender. Only by fighting to the death can you win a chance."

"Zhongda means that if we don't retreat, maybe we can still win?" Liu Biao was surprised. Today, whether it is to persuade surrender or fight to the death, they all think that Liu Rui cannot defeat, but Sima Yi's words seem to be otherwise.

Sima Yi said with a smile: "My lord, we were able to form alliances with other princes before, and now we can too!"

Liu Biao was stunned for a moment, but he realized it in an instant. Now that Jingzhou is in danger, the other princes will naturally not sit still. It is naturally impossible to re-establish the coalition army, but if they send troops to ask for help, they should still be able to get a response.

"My lord, now that Liu Rui has occupied Yizhou, our Jingzhou is the first to bear the brunt. If something happens to our Jingzhou, then Cao Cao and Sun Ce will face Liu Rui's army, and at that time, the princes will be compressed in the southeast corner, and there will be no Any possibility of turning over." Sima Yi said with a smile.Xiaoshuowa novel network www.xiaoshuowa.com

Liu Biao smiled bitterly and said, "I'm afraid that Liu Rui is a tiger and the princes are wolves!"

Sima Yi shook his head, and then said: "My lord, this is a bad statement. There are fierce tigers around, and we have no reason to survive. Although the wolves are ferocious, they can let us drive them away. If Liu Rui can stop them. Liu Rui, there may not be a turning point in the future."

Liu Biao nodded, then Sima Yi continued: "My lord, we can ask the princes for help, and we can also recruit civilians to join the army under the rule of Jingzhou, this is our home court in Jingzhou, even if those civilians have resentment in their hearts, but In order to protect the family and the country, we will be able to exert a lot of combat power at that time.”

When Liu Biao arrived at this moment, he no longer had the panic he had when he heard the news, and now he looked at Sima Yi with a smile, and said, "Zhong Da is really resourceful, and you will be solely responsible for many matters in Jingzhou this time. Bar!"

Sima Yi shook his head and said, "My lord, no, now is the time when people are in chaos. Today, General Cai Mao proposed to surrender. I saw that many people in the field surrendered secretly. No matter how hard we try, we can't stop a shot in the back."

Liu Biao said angrily, "Do those people really dare to do this?"

When the news of Yizhou first reached Jingzhou, Liu Biao was also deeply moved. Liu Zhang and he were both relatives of the Han clan, and Yizhou and Jingzhou were also adjacent to each other. If the same situation happened in his Jingzhou, I am afraid that people in the world would think that. Their Liu family are all useless, and even their subordinates are not well governed.

Hearing Sima Yi's words at this moment, Liu Biao felt even more uneasy in his heart. The Cai family behind Cai Mao has been in Jingzhou for many years and has a solid foundation. If a rebellion is launched, I am afraid that the entire Jingzhou will fall into calamity, not to mention resisting Liu Rui. The army has grown, and I am afraid that Liu Biao will not be able to protect himself.

Seeing Liu Biao's reaction, Sima Yi was also in a good mood, and immediately said with hands: "The heart is separated from the belly, no one can guarantee this kind of thing. This time is the time of our Jingzhou life and death, so we must be careful in every possible way." After a pause, Sima Yi said again: "But it will take some time for Liu Rui's troops to reach Jingzhou. We can make arrangements in advance. Even if such a thing happens, we can start first."

Liu Biao nodded, then glanced at Sima Yi gratefully, and said, "Okay! Zhong Da must keep this matter a little secret, so they don't let them find out."

Sima Yi nodded, and Liu Biao held him to chat for a long time, even pouring wine to accompany him. The two chatted until late at night before Sima Yi left Liu Biao's house.

On the way home, Sima Yi's heart was relieved.When he went to participate in the imperial examination held by Liu Rui, he didn't want Liu Rui to send someone to hunt him down after seeing him Sima Yi.There is no need to think about it, Sima Yi can also know that if it falls into Liu Rui's hands this time, his Sima Yi will probably end up like this.

"Since you, Liu Haosheng, are ruthless, don't blame me, Sima Yi, for being unjust." Sima Yi looked at the full moon in the sky, and the complicated situation in Jingzhou now sounded again, and he couldn't help but have a headache.

It's just that in the next time, Liu Biao really trusted Sima Yi with full authority. According to the various methods Sima said, he did his best to mobilize all the strength of the entire Jingzhou, and was ready to fight Liu Rui to the death.

The various messengers sent also arrived on the territory of the various princes to request reinforcements one after another. Liu Rui mentioned the news of the army's invasion of Jingzhou, and it became known to the world in a short period of time. , , .
