230. The painted cake is definitely a pit
Liu Cong took out two letters and threw them on the table. One was an edict from Cao Cao and the other was a secret letter from Liu Bei. The more Liu Cong read the letters, the more angry he became. He glared at Cai Hao and Zhang Yun, and they were so shocked that they immediately shut up.
, did not dare to fight anymore. Liu Cong saw that Cai Mao and Zhang Yun had restrained themselves a little and did not continue to be reckless, so he continued, "Cao Cao is called the prime minister, but he is actually a traitor to the Han Dynasty. He sent someone to send an edict, saying that I should be granted the title of Jingzhou
Prefecture Mu, plus Yuzhou Prefecture, as long as I drive Liu Bei out of Jingzhou, Cao Cao will immediately hand over Yuzhou and give it to me. The other letter is from Liu Bei. Liu Bei claims to be a clan member of the Han Dynasty, and I
I have never seen the genealogy, so I don’t know whether it is true or not. Cao Cao always called Liu Bei a big-eared thief. He wrote to me and said in a letter that Yizhou Prefect Liu Zhang is seriously ill and unable to take charge of Yizhou. He asked me to send heavy troops to guard the border of Jingzhou to guard against Cao Cao.
Break the border, then quickly go to Yizhou and take over the shepherdship of Yizhou."
Both letters seemed to allow Liu Cong to win the governorship of two major states by himself. However, even an eight-year-old Liu Cong could see that there was something fishy in it. Cao Cao and Liu Bei were playing tricks.
Normally, Liu Cong could have used the trick, pretending to believe Cao Cao or Liu Bei's promise and obeying orders. However, if things got messed up, Liu Cong could ask one of them for help and pass the blame to their mortal enemy.
Unfortunately, the two letters came too timely. They arrived in Xiangyang City almost at the same time and were delivered to Liu Cong.
"Cong'er, isn't this good? Cong'er, you are the governor of Jingzhou, Cao Cao also sent the governor of Yuzhou, and Liu Bei gave you the governor of Yizhou. These are all good things. If you think that the governor can't do it, then
Uncle can help you, and I will share your worries. I will also serve as a state shepherd. I am tired of being the commander of the navy, so I would like a change." Cai Mao didn't understand. There are still people in this world who worry about having too many official positions.
, Liu Cong is too weird to be able to pass it. In the eyes of Liu Cong, Cai Hao directly raised his hand and said that I can do this question. Isn’t it Zhou Mu? If Liu Cong can’t pass it, then Cai Hao will have to do it.
Cai Mao didn't mind being a prefecture shepherd anywhere for Liu Cong. He even thought that Liu Cong was worried about the two extra prefectural shepherd positions, so he rewarded one of them to Zhang Yun, so as to get rid of the thorn in Zhang Yun's side.
A thorn in the flesh, "Zhang Yun, you always say that I am targeting you. This time I let you choose first. Which state do you want to be? Yuzhou or Yizhou? If you don't want to choose, give it to me, all the way across Jingzhou.
, I don’t have to look at your old stinky face anymore, I feel comfortable just thinking about it, I’m happier than being a state shepherd.”
Cai Hao is so awesome. Seeing that Liu Cong is young, it is not the first time that Cai Hao has done something for Liu Cong. With Mrs. Cai's support behind him, Cai Hao doesn't panic at all and is very stable.
"Cai Mao, you are such a good person? You really want me to choose? I, Zhang Yun, can also hold an official position like Zhou Mu? Who are you fooling? There are many powerful families in Yuzhou, Yizhou has high mountains and long roads, and I don't have many troops.
When I go to take office alone, I must not be delayed by the eyes of tigers or swallowed up by people with ulterior motives. Let alone Yuzhou, Yizhou, or even Jingzhou, I will not go anywhere, I will stay in Xiangyang." Zhang Yun is not good at martial arts, but his vision is good.
, knowing that we must always rely on Liu Cong, a big tree. Without Liu Cong's important role, Zhang Yun's Zhang family is not very powerful. The distant family is powerful and cannot compete with others. Zhang Yun's ambitions are not big, so he might as well defend Jingzhou.
As long as Cai Mao or Liu Cong don't take advantage of this three-acre land, there are soldiers on hand, and Jingzhou's navy obeys Zhang Yun's orders. This is more practical than any state pastoral official position. "You want to be the Yuzhou state pastoralist, it's better."
Zhouzhou Mu, then you go, I will not block your way to promotion and wealth, but you don’t want to burn bridges."
"Noisy! General Cai, General Zhang, stop arguing. You are making Benzhou Mu's head hurt with your talk. Apart from fighting and tearing each other down, do you have any other skills? Stand back and keep shouting, Benzhou Mu.
Relinquish your military power." Liu Cong is very clear-headed. Cai Hao and Zhang Yun have some force and can lead the navy, but if Cai Hao and Zhang Yun are allowed to make plans, their minds are full of water and there is no hope. Liu Cong
Focusing on Wenpin, now there is only Wenpin among the foreign generals in Jingzhou who are not related to each other. Liu Cong regretted that he came to power too late and all the good talents were plundered by Liu Chan. He complained a little bit about Liu Biao in his heart, "Zhong
Ye, Cao Cao and Liu Bei have both offered me an olive branch, what do you think? Benzhou Mu feels that my position is not stable, there are always people who want to murder me."
"Liu Jingzhou, Cao Cao is a thief and can't be trusted. Cao Cao wants to separate Liu Jingzhou from Liu Yuzhou. This is because he wants Liu Jingzhou to destroy the Great Wall. You and Liu Yuzhou have the same surname as Liu. They are from the same lineage and are both Han clan clan members. Liu Jingzhou
Yuzhou is still the emperor's uncle, blood is thicker than water, how can he cut himself off, so let's eliminate Cao Cao first. No matter how colorful Cao Cao's letter is, just leave him alone. After accumulating strength, he can win Yuzhou. Needless to say, Cao Cao will also have Liu Jingzhou.
I will take the initiative to send troops to seize it." Wenpin felt aggrieved. He came to Liu Cong's place to make a living. He was just a gatekeeper and a general guarding the city, but Liu Cong, a little brat, always liked to ask Wenpin's opinions and regarded Wenpin as his wife.
When the counselor came to use it, Wenpin burned a lot of brain cells and almost turned white hair. Wenpin was not familiar with Yuzhou and Yizhou. He only knew that Cao Cao couldn't believe it. The cake Cao Cao drew was definitely a trap.
Damn it, Liu Bei, there is no dark history yet, but Wenpin doesn’t dare to vouch for it, saying that Liu Bei, the emperor’s uncle, really has good intentions. Who knows what Liu Bei is thinking in his heart, so Wenpin can only be conservative and let Liu Cong be obedient.
Well, don't bother, "As for Liu Yuzhou's letter, I have never been to Yizhou, but I just think that it is not a good thing to draw all the troops to the border of Jingzhou to fight against Cao Cao. Not to mention that Yizhou is far away, something is really going to happen.
, Jingzhou is prone to chaos, so it is far less practical to manage Jingzhou well."
After listening to Wenpin's words, Liu Cong felt as if a basin of cold water had been poured on him. The raging wildfire in his heart was extinguished little by little. Liu Cong wanted to develop a foundation. Whether it was Yuzhou or Yizhou, it was only the adults who made the choice. Liu Cong
He wants them all.
It is a pity that even the treacherous and cunning Liu Biao was unable to leave Jingzhou. He could only defend the basic situation of Jingzhou, but also caused people in Jingzhou counties and counties to have different hearts and minds, and only pursued their own selfish interests.
"Xidu, Zirou, what do you think?" Liu Cong has really reached a fork in the road now and can't take sides easily. He surrendered to Cao Cao before, and Cao Cao had an army of millions, which makes sense, but later stabbed Cao Cao in the back, and Cao Cao lost in Chibi.
During the battle, Liu Bei and Sun Quan suddenly emerged. Liu Cong, as Liu Biao's son, was originally one of the future heirs of Jingzhou's governor, and there was not much stain on it.
