Chapter 12 Kill or Not
Zhou Yu returned to appease the generals, suppressed the restlessness of the generals, and then prepared to withdraw his troops.//《》.com》号》号//
Liu Bei was salivating at Jiangling and thought about his words to convince Guo Jia.
What kind of reason should I use?
Eliminate traitors and suppress thieves to support the Han Dynasty? This is a good reason!
Liu Bei cleared his throat and planned to speak, let Guo Jia get along with him, and lend Jiangling to him as a temporary place to live. He and Guo Jia can attack Cao Wei together!
But as soon as Liu Bei raised his hand, he wanted to discuss with Guo Jia in a respectful manner, but Guo Jia raised his hand to stop him.
"Liu Bei, do you know why you are a general like Zhang Zhao, who is so enemies, but you still have nothing to do if you are wandering?"
Not only did Guo Jia call him his name directly, but he also spoke harshly and did not give Liu Bei any face.
Liu Bei could tolerate humiliation, but when it came to the sadness that made him feel, he would still look depressed.
He had Pingyuan, Xuzhou, Xinye, and his troops were often too few. Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and Zhao Yun were all rare generals in the world, but Liu Bei lost to Cao Cao and Lu Bu. There is no need to mention these two enemies that he feared. Guo Jia easily captured and released him many years ago. Cao Cao had never defeated Guo Jia, but now he died at the hands of Guo Jia.
Regarding military generals, Liu Bei naturally had three generals under his command not to lose to any of the eight generals who were so arrogant behind Guo Jia.
Even if Guo Jia comes out to fight Liu Bei alone, Liu Bei believes that he can be undefeated.
"What the envoy said is exactly what he thought about day and night. Although he is not talented, he is determined to support the Han Dynasty as his mission and cannot sit idly by and watch the Han Dynasty fall into thieves..."
Liu Bei lowered his head and looked like he was learning from his mistakes. Guo Jia interrupted him impatiently.
"Liu Bei, don't talk about supporting the Han Dynasty as a loyal minister. I was disgusted and vomited when I heard this. You don't have to think about it day and night. I'll tell you why today."
Although Liu Bei was angry that Guo Jia humiliated him again and again, he remained calm and looked humbly asking for advice.
"If you can give me some advice, please listen carefully."
Guo Jia pulled the reins and said leisurely: "As a monarch, you must first have a macro strategy. To be more specific, you should think clearly about who is my current enemy, my current allies, who is my future enemy, and my future allies. Do what you can and get along with each other, and attack from a distance. Secondly, you must have the ability to develop strength, soldiers, cities, food, equipment, civil servants and generals, are all essential for you to develop. Finally, when you develop, you have the chance of winning further, step by step, and continue to grow. Look at the King of Wei, he is not much higher than you along the way, but he can conquer Cao Wei's foundation, because since he started his army, he has a clear strategic route. Before unifying the Central Plains, he will first form Yuan Shao, wait for the Central Plains to pacify, and fight with Yuan Shao to the death to conquer Hebei. (", watch the latest update of this book) Haha."
Liu Bei was so impressed that he nodded frequently, and he benefited a lot.
Zhuge Liang provided him with a strategic route, but he was not as thorough as Guo Jia said, that is, it was better to teach people how to fish than to teach people how to fish.
Guo Ye has always been by Guo Jia's side. Guo Jia's previous conversation with Zhou Yu and humiliating Liu Bei. Guo Ye can understand the intention, but why does Guo Jia seem to be teaching Liu Bei?
It seems that I want to wake up Liu Bei. Isn’t this a disaster for raising a tiger?
Guo Jia's next sentence made Guo Ye suddenly realize, and at the same time he cast a surprised look at the handsome and extraordinary man.
"Liu Bei, don't rack your brains to think too much. He understands the person around you, even more thoroughly than I do. If you have anything, just ask him. Is it, Zhuge Kongming?"
Guo Jia turned his gaze to Zhuge Liang for the first time.
Zhuge Liang was wearing a sleeve robe and a scarf on his head. He was tall and handsome and handsome.
At first glance, Guo Jia admired: He is the weapon of Ying Ba that Chen Shou has evaluated, and his appearance is very great.
Zhuge Liang forced a smile and bowed to Guo Jia, and he felt very angry.
Guo Jia's words were another provocation. This obviously means that Liu Bei could be a good puppet, and Zhuge Liang would be worried about other things.
In fact, Zhuge Liang was also very surprised. The conversation between Guo Jia and Liu Bei could never be aimless. If Zhuge Liang was not capable, Guo Jia's words would have no effect at all, but would have seemed like a cold humor.
But Guo Jia looked at Zhuge Liang with a high look, which made Zhuge Liang very puzzled.
Guo Jia has Pang Tong around him, and Pang Tong is behind the Eight Generals.
It is not uncommon for Guo Jia to hear Zhuge Liang's name.
But if Guo Jia really admired him, why didn’t Guo Jia send anyone to recruit him until Liu Bei visited him three times last year?
Zhuge Liang knew that even if Guo Jia came to recruit him, he would definitely not be loyal to him.
Because he is the same as Lu Su.
I want to be the minister of the new dynasty!
Instead of going to the lords to add icing on the cake as green leaves.
As for whether he was loyal or not, Liu Xie, the orthodox Han emperor, Guo Jia had his own opinion. If he was loyal, why would he rather escape from the world in Longzhong? The great cause of supporting the Han Dynasty was not achieved by practicing it, and he would wait for someone to be recruited and had the opportunity to take office before he came out. Is this called loyalty to the Han Dynasty? The loyal ministers in the world must wait for the emperor to urge him to be loyal. It is hard to imagine whether the country will have a stable day.
"Zhuge Kongming, Liu Bei wants Jiangling, come and tell him if I will give it to him. No matter what reason he uses to convince me, I am tired of hearing what he wants to support the Han Dynasty."
Guo Jia smiled casually.
Zhuge Liang looked embarrassed, and Liu Bei's heart had already sunk to the bottom.
"Master, go back to Jiangxia."
Zhuge Liang said softly to Liu Bei.
After all, they still have a Jiangxia to live in.
Liu Bei was depressed and was about to turn around, but Guo Jia smiled and said, "Oh, I forgot to tell you that I intend to take Jingzhou. Liu Bei, I will give you a month. In a month, if your troops are still in Jingzhou, I will lead my troops to wipe out the forces that are not surrendered."
The shocked eyes were turned to Guo Jia, and Liu Bei opened his mouth slightly, as if he wanted to curse Guo Jia.
He disrespects the Han Dynasty and is ruthless. Now he wants to drive Liu Bei out of Jiangxia. Do you not even give him a way out?
"Do you have any objections? Uncle Liu."
Guo Jia said the three words "Sir Liu" very slowly and lightly, and everyone present could hear the ridicule.
Liu Bei's expression was a little distorted, and he finally turned his head and left without saying a word.
Zhuge Liang took a step slower, Guo Jia called him and asked, "Kong Ming, are you interested in coming to my command? Your old acquaintance Pang Shiyuan is in our army. You and him work together. I think the world will be pacified soon. It is not difficult for you to be ranked as the third minister."
Zhuge Liang frowned and looked at Guo Jia.
Now Guo Jia suddenly seemed to be arrogant and unscrupulous.
Zhuge Liang can understand such a change in ordinary people.
After all, if Cao Cao is killed, the Cao Wei regime is likely to be in turmoil and collapse. Who else in this world can hinder Guo Jia's path forward?
If an ordinary person were in Guo Jia's position, he would have been wearing a dragon robe long ago!
But Guo Jia shouldn't!
Yuan Shao, who unified Hebei, Cao Cao, who captured Jingxiang not long ago, and even Dong Zhuo, who dominated the court, fell to pieces at the time of his best complacent moments?
Liu Bei looked at Zhuge Liang nervously, for fear that Zhuge Liang would abandon him.
Zhuge Liang said lightly: "I am grateful to you, but I dare not ignore the kindness of my ancestors who have received from the Han people. As a Han people, I should live and die with the Han Dynasty. My lord, Emperor Liu, is the people of the people, and the rise and fall of the Han family. I follow my lord, not seeking wealth, but only seeking long-cherished wishes."
After saying that, Zhuge Liang and Liu Bei, who was moved, left together.
"Father, did you let them go?"
Guo Ye doesn't understand anymore.
If Guo Jia did not go to war with Jiangdong, it was because the two families had an alliance.
But Guo Jia and Liu Bei have no alliance. The alliance between Sun and Liu Bei is a matter between Sun Quan and Liu Bei. It is impossible to have alliance between Sun Quan and Guo Jia and Liu Bei. Therefore, Guo Jia and Liu Bei are also allies, right?
And Liu Bei, with such a good opportunity now, won’t he kill him?
Guo Jia smiled faintly and said to Guo Ye: "You stay and Meng Da lead the crossbow soldiers and the tiger guards to take over Jiangling, and go to chase Liu Bei for your father."
Guo Ye doesn't understand even more.
Liu Bei had just walked back from his eyes and didn't kill him just now, but Guo Jia said he wanted to chase him?
He rode his horse back to hand over the troops with Meng Da, while Guo Jia turned around and waved to Dian Wei.
Dian Wei rode a horse and asked, "What are the lord's instructions?"
Guo Jia smiled evilly.
"Say a word for me."
The troops in Jiangdong have begun to change directions and prepare to withdraw from the Chibi Camp before making plans.
Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang also returned to the front with a heavy expression. Zhang Fei, Guan Yu, Zhao Yun and Chen went forward to ask about the results of their negotiations with Guo Jia.
Who belongs to this Jiangling City?
Judging from Liu Bei's expression, the result is definitely not optimistic.
The four generals were all a little discouraged. Guo Jia had many soldiers and widespread generals, and they were only sure that they were in a position to fight.
But they still didn't give up and wanted to ask the truth, but they didn't ask.
A loud voice came from the opposite side, echoing for a long time.
"Uncle Liu! Leave Jingzhou within one month, otherwise we will meet with each other!"
Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun, and Chen Dao were shocked!
Even the generals in Jiangdong turned around and looked surprised.
Jiangling, Guo Jia won't give it to you.
Now, even Jiangxia, Liu Bei's only shelter, is going to be taken away?
Isn't this too much?
Aggressive!
"Brother! What's going on?"
Zhang Fei didn't even call his lord, and called him the eldest brother directly. Seeing his anxious and indignant look on his face, he obviously couldn't accept it.
Zhuge Liang knew something was wrong, and it was Guo Jia's excitement!
But Liu Bei did not hide from his brothers and he quickly revealed the truth.
He said in frustration: "Envoy Guo wants to take over Jingzhou, but he doesn't want me to stay in Jingzhou."
These words sound aggrieved.
Actually excessive?
Liu Bei's official position has nothing to do with Jingzhou. Why should he stay in Jingzhou?
But then again, Guo Jia has no power to occupy Jingzhou.
Since it is unreasonable in this troubled time, it is just a fist.
"Brother! Why? Jiang Xia belongs to the young master Liu Qi, not to him Guo Jia. The eldest master didn't even say he should drive the elder brother away. Why should Guo Jia make the decision?"
Zhang Fei was furious, Guan Yu was calm on the side, and Zhao Yun and Chen Dao were also full of righteous indignation.
Zhuge Liang was about to smooth things over, but no matter what, he would go back to Jiangxia first to rest and plan later.
But Zhang Fei became more angry as he thought about it, and roared angrily.
"See you in a war! I'll kill Guo Jia's head now!"
After saying that, Zhang Fei slapped out and headed straight for Guo Jia.
Seeing Zhang Fei shouting and killing alone, Guo Jia smiled playfully and said to Guo Ye who had returned to him: "Look, now, I can go and kill Liu Bei for my father."
