Liu Biao asked Yuan Shao for help? Sun Ce's heart moved and patted his head hard, blaming himself for a lot of blame.

No wonder Kuai Yue didn't make any noise. It turned out that not only was he paying attention to the situation in Shandong, but Kuai Yue did not limit his attention to Xiangyang. He wanted to lead Yuan Shao into Nanyang. In this way, Nanyang was attacked from north to south, and Yuan Shu would inevitably call Sun Jian to fight north, and the siege of Xiangyang would naturally be lifted.

Perhaps the real wise ruler in Kuai Yue's heart was always Yuan Shao, not Liu Biao. During the Battle of Yuan and Cao Guandu, Liu Biao's subordinates advised Liu Biao to respond to Yuan Shao or Cao Cao. Among them, there must be Kuai Yue. If Liu Biao had not established a firm foothold at that time and had a certain control and ignored them, he would not have to wait until the 13th year of Jian'an, Jingzhou would not be his.

Cao Cao is not very strong yet, and Kuai Yue never thought of asking for help from him. The only hope is Yuan Shao.

Unlike the attention he brought about based on a priori conclusions, Kuai Yue has a strong real need, so he is more attentive and always forgets to combine the war in Jingzhou with the situation in Shandong. He can still consider the overall situation when making arrangements. Once he is entangled in specific issues for a long time, he will unknowingly give up the overall thinking and only focus on the things in front of him.

Kuai Yue, thank you for teaching me a lesson.

As soon as his thoughts were opened, Sun Ce suddenly felt his eyes open and he thought about it. "What is your young master doing?"

"My young master is discussing with various families in Xiangyang and asking them to help Liu envoy defend the city." Cai He said slowly: "The cavalry sent by the general robbed the grain transported from Jiangling. Xiangyang City is insufficient in reserves, so he wants to ask for help from each family."

Sun Ce's eyes rolled and suddenly understood the purpose of Cai Mao sending Cai He. He chuckled softly and said, "Your young master is not easy to handle. It's hard for the villagers to tear down the face."

Cai He did not comment, but his expression had already accused Sun Ce's analysis.

"Are you going back?"

"Of course I have to go back." Cai He said: "I am the young master's side. If I don't go back, no one will take care of his daily life."

"Okay, please give your young master a few words. The first sentence: Nearly a thousand young and old members of the Cai family are in my hands. If I lose, I will kill all those people before leaving, without leaving. The second sentence: Yuan Shao is a chatterer like Liu Biao. When he was chasing Dong, he was in the sour jujube for so long, and he could only drink and brag, and he had never fought a battle. Besides, he and Gongsun Zan became enemies. They are now confronting each other in Xuzhou and cannot save Xiangyang at all."

Cai He blinked. "I will definitely bring the general's words to you."

"You can leave. Before leaving, you can take a good look at Caizhou's defense and tell you the young master of the family."

Cai He has always been very calm, and when he heard Sun Ce's words, his face fluctuated. Sun Ce took the initiative to ask him to see Cai Zhou's defense arrangements, which is to recognize the situation from Cai Mao and not to be half-hearted. Not to mention whether Cai Zhou's defense is solid, this confidence alone is very strong.

"Abide by the general's orders."

——

After seeing off Cai He, Sun Ce sat down and thought for a while, a sinister smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and a plan slowly took shape in his mind. Either do not do it or do it, and it is the most unhappy. Liu Biao can control Jingzhou, and the main supporters are Cai Mao, Kuai Yue. Cai Mao is the strongest powerful in Xiangyang. He has been taken down by him and lost Liu Biao's trust. However, Kuai Yue, who controls military power and has a greater influence, has not been affected yet.

After deposed Kuai Yue, Liu Biao's left and right arm were cut off, and he became a lonely man and could no longer make waves.

Kuai Yue was very smart, but he was not a selfless person, and he had no morals at all. He was a thorough pragmatist. If he supported Liu Biao, he supported Liu Biao and killed Zong Shuai without hesitation. If he surrendered to Cao Cao, he abandoned Liu Cong without hesitation and tried his best to persuade Liu Cong to surrender. Liu Biao had known him for many years and should know his nature. They used each other and their trust foundation was not solid.

I don't give it to Kuai Yue, and I don't want to give it to him, but I can make him feel pain. I should have dealt with him like the Cai family.

Sun Ce planned to ask Cai Ke and asked about the location of Zhonglu. When he heard Sun Ce said he wanted to deal with the Kuai family, Cai Ke was right in his mind. Not only did he say it in great detail, but he also took the initiative to arrange a division to take Sun Ce to copy Kuai Yue's home. Sun Ce was overjoyed and immediately called Lin Feng.

"You choose two clever people to find Cheng Pu, Han Dang and the two Simas, pass on my message, and go to Zhonglu to raid Kuai's house!"

Lin Feng responded, turned around and left.

Sun Ce found paper and pen and wrote a letter, and asked someone to give it to his father Sun Jian. There were only two things in the letter:

1. It is limited to ten days. If Kuai Yue has not left the city within ten days, he will be prepared to attack Fancheng. We have not had much time left. We must seize Xiangyang before Yuan Shao arrives. At least he must take down Fancheng and hold Liu Biao down, so as not to let him go north to meet with Yuan Shao.

2. I informed Liu Pi, Gong Du and others that I had nearly a thousand hectares of good arable land for them, so come quickly.

——

Five days later, Cheng Pu, who was wandering around the country of Qi, received the order from Sun Ce, and quickly headed north and rushed to Zhonglu. Zhonglu was fifty miles southwest of Xiangyang City. It was a marquis country with a small city, but the Kuai family was not in the city, but in its own manor. Facing the cavalry like a wolf and a tiger, the Kuai family was not prepared at all, and collapsed with one blow, and almost everyone became prisoners.

After receiving the news of success, Sun Ce called Kuai Qi.

After being imprisoned for a few days, Kuai Qi no longer had the arrogance he had before, and was unkempt and shaking his face when walking. The remaining food in the Cai family was limited, so the prisoners naturally could not imagine such a good thing as three meals a day. Kuai Qi only had one meal a day, and was so hungry that he was skin and bone-to-heart.

Sun Ce threw an old bamboo stick in front of Kuai Qi.

After looking at it for a while, Kuai Qi's eyes slowly gathered. He pounced on him, picked up the bamboo stick, and screamed: "Sun Ce, the two armies are fighting, and the disaster is not as good as their family. How can you do this?"

"You are stupid enough to study, but you will not be as troubled as your family." Sun Ce laughed jokingly and said, "You don't think about where you are now. The Cai family has been robbed by me. How can your Kuai family be spared? It's too unfair. Don't talk to me about those useless things. If you want to survive, write a letter to your father and uncle, either surrender or fight to the death. What's the matter if you don't surrender without fighting or surrendering? I'll give him a day to think about it. If I haven't received a reply tomorrow, I'll kill you first, and then push your Kuai family's more than 300 old and young people to the edge of the Mianshui."

"You... you are not a human!" Kuai Qi roared loudly. Before he finished speaking, Lin Feng stepped forward and slapped him twice, and threw him on the ground with a thump. Kuai Qi struggled to get up and wanted to scold him again. Sun Ce said: "If you refuse to write a letter, I won't force you. You can cut off your head and send it to Xiangyang City. It may be more convincing."

Lin Feng pulled out the long sword with a "swish" sound and put it on Kuai Qi's neck. The cold blade touched the skin, and Kuai Qi's anger was extinguished and his body became cold. He looked at Sun Ce and saw that Sun Ce was not like a joke, the remaining courage suddenly flew out of the sky.

"I...I just write it."
