"Chen Yu, the envoy of Bingzhou Army, met Changsha Governor Zhang.←,"

At this time, Zhang Xian looked to be about forty years old. He was tall for a southerner. Even if he was placed in Bingzhou, he would be much higher than the average height. He had a burly figure, a three-foot-long beard, and a copper-colored body.

Chen Ye almost blurted out, "Second Master, when did you come to Changsha, and you even reached the position of prefect."

Yes, the Zhang Xian in front of me has served as three governors in Lingling, Guiyang and Changsha, but his temperament is more like a mighty one than a civil official.

's general.

This is probably because although Zhang Xian was born in Nanyang, a place with prosperous culture, he has been in Jingnan for a long time, and the only people around him who can deal with him are barbarians hidden in the mountains and forests. Even the customs of various places in Jingnan are not as elegant as the scribes.

Instead, he prefers to solve problems with the size of his fist. Occasionally, it is rare to encounter a case that can be solved with words.

It is probably because of such folk customs that when Sun Jian was in Changsha, although he had a tense relationship with Wang Rui, the governor of Jingzhou, his relationship with the prefects of several other counties in Jingnan was barely acceptable, and he was even more popular in Jingnan.

Love.

A country's soil and water support its people. If you want to truly gain the trust and recognition of the people of that country, integrating with them is obviously the most appropriate way.

As for changing customs, that is obviously a matter that can be considered later. If you change customs indiscriminately, unless you are a powerful party, you are basically prepared to be killed by the angry villagers, even if you think you are

It's good for them. After all, even if it is an extremely powerful party, the prerequisite for being powerful is to buy off the vast majority of the people through land reform.

So the key to success is to make the people believe, well, at least believe that "if you follow you, you will get meat."

And Zhang Xian is obviously a leader in this aspect.

Not only was he able to command the respect of the local tycoons and the people's love when he was in office, but even after he left office, his influence on the place where he once served was still extremely huge, so much so that both Liu Du, the governor of Lingling, and Zhao Fan, the governor of Guiyang, were his successors.

You need to lift your nose and breathe.

So even the veteran Wuling Governor Cao Yin behaved very submissively when facing the powerful Zhang Xian. After all, what this scheming guy has always been good at is using others as spearmen and hiding behind to take advantage. He originally encouraged Sun Jian to kill him.

Wang Rui, who had great conflicts with both of them, has also contributed a lot to the tense relationship between Zhang Xian and Liu Biao.

So you see, countless forces are looking forward to the collision between Jingnan and Jingbei. Therefore, in today's world, it would be a big mistake for Liu Biao to just think that an alliance with Yuan Shao would allow Jingzhou to sit back and relax.

Of course, the previous attack on Zhang Ji was probably a countermeasure taken because of such oppression. However, judging from the fact that after the war, although the Jingzhou Army was very powerful, its actual actions became extremely slow.

The motivation still seems to be insufficient.

Perhaps compared to the land in the north, Liu Biao liked the vast basin of Yizhou more. After all, Liu Biao had probably understood all the intentions of Liu Yan, a guy who was perhaps even more gloomy than him, and after careful comparison, Yizhou

The terrain of Zhouzhou, which is surrounded by mountains and is easy to defend and difficult to attack, is indeed very suitable for a famous clan member like Liu Biao who may not be completely considered a rebellious Han Dynasty.

In any case, in terms of reputation among scholars, Liu Biao can actually be said to surpass Liu Yan. So if the world is at peace, then with the reputation he has accumulated, Liu Biao can actually serve the emperor as a minister in an upright and dignified manner.

Fang. Within, he became the third Duke to lead the government. And if the imperial power is unstable, he has the qualifications not to lose to Liu Yu, and has stronger skills than Liu Yu. The most important thing is that as a member of the clan with the surname Liu, he is fully qualified to ascend the throne.

The throne of the Nine-Five Lord.

Because of this, he did a lot of things that were obviously out of line for a courtier. But as an ambitious man, his various actions were really not up to standard, and he was always unable to make up his mind. The result was naturally...

The existence that all parties covet.

After all, because the southern part of the country has gained many people of all kinds from the north, the once barbarian land has gradually become rich and prosperous. The academic atmosphere in Xiangyang City has also made it a leader among scholars. Just like Xuzhou in the past.

.If it falls into the hands of any ambitious person, it only takes two or three years to digest it, and its own strength will be greatly improved.

Even if there is no such factor, you are a behemoth. In terms of comprehensive strength, you are the fourth prince after Yuan Shao, Cao Cao and Li Shushi (the top three are not in order for the time being). You want to be a player in this world chess game.

Soy sauce passerby, and then suddenly jump out (even if it is possible) when everyone is fighting for life and death, and a snipe and clam fight, and the fisherman wins?

Even if you, Liu Biao, look at everyone with the purest eyes, everyone will never believe it.

This is not the Jingzhou that has been disabled due to various reasons in the history of another plane, but even if it seems that the strength is not comparable to the top three in the north, a cold blow can still make you hurt three points, or even merge with the state.

Jun has had the most personal experience.

Under such circumstances, it is completely normal for everyone to use various overt and covert actions to greet the Jingzhou Army.

In the past, Li Shushi's Bingzhou and Lianghe lands had gone through the same road, but at that time, Li Shushi relied on the ruthlessness of the Bingzhou army and Dong Zhuo's too eye-catching body to survive the crisis, so now

What about Jingzhou?

The sound of needle dropping could be heard in the hall, everyone was waiting for Zhang Xian's decision.

Although Chen Yi only officially paid a visit to Zhang Xian, the prefect, today, in fact, with the help of Pan Jun, Jiang Wan, and the fierce water bandit named Liao Tong, who was once famous in the Jingnan area, Chen Yi

I have visited many people enough to influence

Important people in Zhang Xian's Changsha County, such as the Changsha County Prime Minister Huan Jie who is standing on Zhang Xian's right hand, and the Changsha Army General Yuan Long who has an old relationship with Liao Tong on his left, and the Changsha Army General Yuan Long who is standing on Zhang Xian's right

Zhang Xian is survived by his eldest son Zhang Yi and his younger brother Zhang Ji.

The reason why he made such a choice was not because Chen Hao deliberately ignored Zhang Xian, who was the decision-maker and the most influential and powerful governor in Changsha and even the four counties of Jingnan, but because after analysis, he could know that in fact, he was in conflict with Zhang Xian.

On the issue of Liu Biao's confrontation, Zhang Xian had obviously already strengthened his determination, but it was just that he had not been able to unify internal opinions, which led to the current stalemate.

Even the largest leader of the opposition party is his son, who looks thin and frail. Although his stature has inherited his father's good genes, in other aspects he completely respects the standard template of Ming and Qing scribes. At first glance,

He looked like a powerless scholar, which made people wonder whether this thin young man could support his own independent sky for the Jingnan area like his father after his father's death.

It's probably unlikely.

However, it is such a person who, because of his special status, has caused his father's "grand plan" to be delayed to the point where it is now enough to make all the forces that intend to stir up trouble in Jingzhou boast and glare.

He is obviously a tiger father and son who wants nothing and has nothing good except his birth. But he can stir up troubles, so from this you can understand why in various heroic epics, no matter how powerful the hero is,

No matter how high your intelligence is, how powerful your power is, or how good your luck is, as long as you encounter a shameless villain, you will definitely feel uncomfortable for a long time or even die from it.

Although most of the time this kind of people look like pig teammates, in fact they are the real opponents.

Because with ordinary opponents, you can still fight, scold and activate, but against these "big treasures", you can be said to be completely helpless.

So this is why Li Shushi in most cases prefers to detonate certain conflicts in advance, even if it will cause some trouble or even be in danger for a while, just like Ma Jiajun outside Chang'an City, but in fact compared with the future,

The group of people detonated those unstable factors internally, and it was obviously more conducive to the future and long-term to detonate them before they entered the interior.

However, even if Zhang Yi, the poor teammate of the Changsha Army and the god teammate of the Jingzhou Army, successfully completed its historical mission, Chen Yi did not feel that it was so difficult. After some contact with Huan Jie and through various

Collect enough information through various channels

According to the information, although everything about Zhang Yi could not be said to be completely exposed to Chen Hao like an X-ray scan, it was enough for Chen Hao to analyze the mentality of this young master of the Changsha Army who so persistently opposed his father.

The "big plan".

In fact, to put it bluntly, we can't really say that Zhang Yi is a prodigal and a bad teammate.

Zhang Yi, who had studied in Xiangyang a few years ago and even had some exchanges with Liu Biao's not-so-favoured eldest son Liu Qi, although he had a deep understanding of Jingbei's strength, he still had a relatively intuitive understanding of it.

learn.

After some comparison, Zhang Yi found that Jingbei far surpassed the four counties in Jingnan bundled together in terms of cultural heritage, economic strength, army size and combat effectiveness, and what this meant was naturally obvious.

Therefore, it is exactly the same as the idea of ​​a "patriotic person" who advocated "curving the country to save the country" in another time and space. Although because of Zhang Xian's existence, Zhang Yi, a young man, naturally did not dare to make such "treasonous and unethical" remarks. But if

It's said that it's just banging and making trouble, but it's also a relaxing and enjoyable thing.

It can even be said that under the influence of certain emotions, Zhang Yi, a young patient with chuunibyou, felt that he was the savior.

However, facing Chen Yi who had collected enough information and fully understood his way of thinking, Zhang Yi quickly exposed the shortcomings of his limited knowledge. Even without the blessing of the emperor, as long as he used it a little bit

With his sophistry skills and his exaggeration of the Bingzhou Army, Zhang Yi would have changed his banner and abandoned the dark side to the bright side if the previous Battle of Nanyang had not caused the Bingzhou Army to lose some points.

Even so, when the news from Jiangdong reaches Jingnan, even if there is a lag, it is enough to be the last straw that breaks the camel's back - Sun Cejun's predecessor, Sun Jianjun, is still famous in the north and south of Jingzhou, and Sun Cejun is even more famous this time.

With great fanfare, he declared that he would lead an army to avenge his father, and threatened to use Liu Biao's head in Xiangyang City to honor his father's spirit in heaven.

This is really arrogant and makes people just want to hide their faces, but it is so suitable for a young man like Sun Ce.

Although the four counties in Jingnan are indeed unable to compete with Jingbei, which is more developed in terms of economy and manpower, if we add the menacing Jiangdong Sun Ce Army and the Bingzhou Army in the north who seem to be intending to go south (fooling)

.

Even if the Jingzhou Army survives, they will definitely have to shed countless layers of skin. Anyway, they will never be able to go south in a short time.

As for Zhang Xian's other younger brother Zhang Ji, who had a greater influence on Zhang Xian, although he was originally a neutral faction, Chen Yi still took the initiative to visit him - this is not to say that he was worried about Zhang Xian's chance to relapse or something. It was entirely because

Before he left, he had been told that visiting Zhang Ji was also the top priority of his trip to Changsha and had a very high priority.

Naturally, during this visit, Chen Hao did not make a single statement about the situation during the entire meeting. Instead, he shared with Zhang Ji the teaching materials of Bingzhou Medical College and some precious cases and pharmacies collected by Bingzhou State Hospital.

In such a sincere spirit of sharing, Zhang Ji also responded enthusiastically. He shared some of his treasures and experiences without any secrets, and even said that he would go to Jinyang before his death, even if he would not live there forever.

, you must also go to the medical school to listen to lectures, go to the hospital for consultation, and then contribute your own modest efforts to cultivate more medical talents.

For Zhang Ji, who has a transcendent status, such action is just right. Zhang Ji, who feels the goodwill from Bingzhou, will still maintain a neutral attitude, but as long as he continues to maintain this attitude. With Huan Jie's support and Zhang Yi's reaction

Although there are still some forces in Shui and Jingnan that oppose war with Jingbei, they are no longer able to have more influence on the general situation.

It can be said that today's meeting represents the result of this "overall situation has been decided".

"I already know what Li Zhoumu means, and I have no objection to the two counties of Nanyang and Fangling becoming yours. However, now that Sun Ce from Jiangdong is coming fiercely, he has the potential to swallow up the eight counties of Jingxiang, but I don't know if Bingzhou has any instructions on this matter.

"

"Prefect Zhang can rest assured. Sun Ce has not been in Jiangdong for a long time, and people are not attached to him. Now he has only managed to stabilize the situation through strict rule, but in fact all the forces are not convinced. But in this situation

Next, Sun Ce still attacks with great fanfare

If Jingzhou can be successfully captured in one go, it can be used to intimidate Xiaoxiao. But if it is trapped under a fortified city or in the wilderness, it will not be possible to annex Jingzhou and Xiangzhou, and there will be dissatisfied people in Jiangdong later.

When something goes wrong, don't worry about the beginning and the end.
