Chapter 455 Persuading Zhang Yun

Liu Qi took Huang She and headed upstream of the Han River. They needed to find a suitable place to build a dam in the upper reaches of the Han River.

Kuai Liang also started to take action.

Kuai Liang has now decided to help Liu Qi seize the position of Jingzhou Mu.

So the first thing to do is three things.

First, he needs to assist Liu Qi in repelling the Han army outside the city and get this huge credit for Liu Qi.

The second is to trap Cai Mao and his followers.

The third is to gain enough military power and connections for Liu Xie.

At this time, Kuai Liang already had a countermeasure, and he had already thought about what to do.

So, he took the lead to find Zhang Yun.

At this time, Zhang Yun was in fear every day.

He was afraid that if the Han army captured Fancheng, he would be doomed.

After all, he is Liu Biao's nephew. If others have a chance to survive after Liu Biao's defeat, then as Liu Biao's nephew, he will definitely not survive.

Therefore, he felt that he could not lose and did not dare to lose.

At the same time, Zhang Yun also understood one thing at this time, that is, with his current ability, he really couldn't handle such a large-scale battle.

Therefore, he is a little panicked now.

At this time, Kuai Liang came.

Kuai Liang came to Zhang Yun not to trick Zhang Yun, but to win Zhang Yun over.

Despite the fact that Zhang Yun is still young and has little experience, he is not qualified for important positions.

But Zhang Yun has a high status! No matter how you say it, he is also Liu Biao's nephew and the deputy commander-in-chief of the Jingzhou Army.

At the same time, since Zhang Yun was Cai Mao's confidant before, pulling him over could divide Cai Mao's power very well.

Another point is that Zhang Yun is now the commander-in-chief of Fancheng. Without his nod, Kuai Liang would not be able to mobilize the Jingzhou Army in Fancheng.

If you want to mobilize troops through Zhang Yun, you are bound to be unable to hide Liu Qi's existence.

So, going around and around, you need to pull Zhang Yun over.

Kuai Liang also had the confidence to pull Zhang Yun over because he had seen through Zhang Yun.

To put it simply, no matter who succeeds to the position of Jingzhou Mu, Liu Qi or Liu Cong, it will be the same to Zhang Yun.

It can even be said that Liu Qi's succession would be better for Zhang Yun than Liu Cong.

Because Liu Cong had Cai Mao behind him, even if Liu Cong succeeded to the throne, the military power in Jingzhou would still be in Cai Mao's hands.

However, Liu Qi's succession to the throne was different.

Zhang Yun is Liu Qi's cousin. There is a relationship between the two, but there is no relationship between Liu Qi and Cai Mao.

Liu Qi and Cai Mao had long been incompatible with each other, and both sides wished that the other would die.

If Liu Qi wants to ascend to the position of Jingzhou Mu, he must first overthrow Cai Mao.

So, if Liu Qi can succeed and bring down Cai Mao, then whose hands will the military power of Jingzhou be?

It is definitely in Liu Qi's own hands. Neither Liu Qi nor Kuai Liang will allow anyone to control the military power in Jingzhou.

However, this does not prevent Kuai Liang from coaxing Zhang Yun into using the gimmick of letting Zhang Yun take over the military power in Jingzhou after overthrowing Cai Mao.

As long as Zhang Yun believed that Liu Qi would make him the governor of Jingzhou after overthrowing Cai Mao, it would be fine.

As for whether Liu Qi will be able to bring down Cai Mao after he ascends to the post of Jingzhou Mu, that is another matter.

Even if Liu Qi doesn't fulfill his promise, at that time, what will Zhang Yun dare to say?

Therefore, Kuai Liang is still very confident in persuading Zhang Yun to join Liu Qi's camp.

"Captain, Liang asks to see you." Kuai Liang came outside Zhang Yun's house and shouted inside.

Zhang Yun, who was frightened by the Han army's attack on the city, heard that Kuai Liang wanted to see him, so he quickly came out to greet him.

"Master Kuai is here, has the Han army begun to attack the city?" Zhang Yun was now afraid of hearing the news that the Han army had begun to attack the city.

"Don't worry, Commander, the Han army has not yet attacked the city." Kuai Liang shook his head.

Zhang Yun breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that the Han army had not attacked the city yet.

"Since the Han army has no construction projects, why did you come to see me for other reasons?" Zhang Yun asked strangely.

In Zhang Yun's opinion, he and Kuai Liang are not familiar with each other, and the relationship between the two of them is usually just for official business and has no personal relationship.

Since the Han army did not attack the city, why did Kuai Liang come to find him?

"Liang has a question. I would like to hear the governor's opinion." Kuai Liang looked at Zhang Yun and asked.

Hearing Kuai Liang's words, Zhang Yun felt a little strange, but he still said: "Excuse me, sir."

"Do you think our army can win this battle?" Kuai Liang asked directly.

Zhang Yun was stunned. He didn't know what Kuai Liang meant by this sentence.

However, after Zhang Yun was briefly stunned, he still nodded.

"What did you say, sir? Although our Fancheng is besieged, Yuan Shao of Jizhou and Liu Bei of Xuzhou are attacking Yanzhou."

"As long as we can hold Jingzhou and the situation in Yanzhou changes, our army will definitely be able to repel the Han army."

"You can even hunt down the Han army and capture Luoyang."

When Kuai Liang heard Zhang Yun's words, he nodded and did not deny it, but he continued: "Does the governor think Fancheng can be defended?"

"If Fancheng cannot be defended, even if the lord, Yuan Shao and the others defeat the emperor, what does that have to do with the governor?" Kuai Liang asked a heart-wrenching question.

Zhang Yun was immediately silenced.

Kuai Liang waited for a long time, but did not see Zhang Yun's answer, so he thought to himself and said: "I think the governor has also thought of it."

"If Fancheng cannot be defended, then the Commander-in-Chief will be in danger. After that, even if the Han army is defeated, the Commander-in-Chief may not gain anything." Kuai Liang squinted and looked at Zhang Yun.

"This..." Zhang Yun didn't know what else to say. He looked at Kuai Liang, trying to see some clues from his expression.

"Sir, if you have anything to say, just say it." Zhang Yun now understood that Kuai Liang must have had other purposes to come to him.

"Captain, please be patient. Liang is here today to show the governor a clear path."

"The road that will allow the governor to prosper in the future."

"Sir, what do you mean? Are you planning to defect to the Han army?" Zhang Yun was suddenly startled. He felt that Kuai Liang was not really planning to defect to the Han army.

"No, the governor made a mistake. Liang came here today not to persuade the governor to defect to the Han army, but to help him defeat or even completely annihilate the Han army in order to gain the reputation of the governor of Chengdu!"

"How is it possible to completely destroy the Han army? There are 200,000 Han troops outside the city now. How can I destroy them?" Zhang Yun heard Kuai Liang's words and immediately expressed disbelief.

"The soldiers in Fancheng alone can't do it, but what if there is a surprise army outside the city?" Kuai Liang looked at Zhang Yun and said.

"Strange soldiers? Where did the strange soldiers come from? Did my uncle send someone here?" Zhang Yun stood up immediately after hearing Kuai Liang's words.

"No, it's not the lord, but someone else who came with troops to rescue the governor." Kuai Liang shook his head.

"Who is it? Which general brought people to rescue Fancheng? How many people were there?" Zhang Yun was excited.
