Chapter 109 A big game of chess
After arriving at Cai Mao's mansion, the two of them were much more relaxed than when they were in front of Liu Ping.
"You and I have to do this in person. You and I cannot do it for others. I will be responsible for Xinye's information. Didn't you have a secret line in Jiangdong? You will be responsible for the news from Jiangdong. The lord said that the deadline is three months. Three months are too long, and it will change later. Within one month, Liu Bei and the few people under his command must die!"
Although Cai Mao seemed to have a higher status, he still had to listen to Kuai Yue in planning such a major event.
When the two reached an offensive and defensive alliance, Cai Mao and Kuai Yue promised that Liu Cong could take office after Liu Biao died.
Although he was Liu Cong's uncle and was obviously closer to Liu Cong, he still had to govern Jingzhou with Kuai Yue.
"Just do what you said, don't worry about the news about Jiangdong. If Sun Ce really plots against me, Jingzhou, it will be enough for me to prepare for the navy. Is their navy? It's not as good as us. The main thing is the Xinye situation. Liu Bei had already established some achievements during the rebellion of the Yellow Turban Army. Although he is a little down and out now, he still has some prestige among the people and must not be taken lightly."
The two of them reminded each other and then they dispersed.
The situation in Jingzhou was obviously more complicated than Liu Bei expected. Of course, Sun Ce did not expect that he had become the number one imaginary enemy in Liu Biao's head.
He cooperated with Liu Xie to complete the previous series of performances, in fact, only one purpose was to see if Guan Yu could be truly used by him.
As for Jingzhou, Sun Ce cannot be said to have no plans. Even if Liu Xie once proposed the idea that if you want to compete in the Central Plains, you must first get Jingzhou.
But Sun Ce knew how much he had, at least he was not able to defeat Liu Biao and compete with the Central Plains.
Seeing that Guan Yu had gone to Xiangyang, and the news came back a few days later, Liu Bei held a banquet for entertainment after Guan Yu arrived in Xiangyang, and then followed Liu Bei back to Xinye, a fiefdom given to him by Liu Biao.
After the news was sent back one by one, Sun Ce was a little disappointed.
When Sun Ce was disappointed, he would definitely find his little brother Zhou Yu in front of him. One was to express his unhappiness in his heart, and the other was naturally to let Zhou Yu run away his errands.
"Gongjin, after Guan Yu arrived in Xiangyang, Liu Bei thought that he didn't care about the life or death of a woman. What's the use of leaving such a lady Mi according to His Majesty's idea? Alas! His Majesty is still too young. Could it be that he fell in love with Mrs Mi and wanted to use this method to take it for himself?"
After Sun Ce thought about the image of Liu Xie, who was gradually taller, he immediately became short and pitiful again.
Sun Ce felt that his worries seemed to be getting clearer and clearer. Liu Xie was indeed quite smart, but he used his intelligence to ask for the Qiao sisters as soon as he came to Jiangdong.
Now there is another Mrs. Mi. What is he doing? Isn’t the ultimate goal all women?
After hearing Sun Ce's words, Zhou Yu's face turned a little ashen.
He sent back every news from Liu Xie before, but he never expected that when Guan Yu went to Xiangyang, he seemed to be a muddy bull, and there was no splash because of Mrs. Mi's disappearance.
However, in terms of wisdom, Zhou Yu is somewhat better than Sun Ce. His face is ugly, but he still read the original words Liu Xie said to him in his heart.
"Your Majesty should not have any inappropriate thoughts about Mrs. Mi. Although Mrs. Mi is a bit handsome, it is more than a little bit worse than the Qiao sisters. His Majesty once said that this is not to arouse some anger between Liu Bei and Guan Yu, but to pull Liu Biao in..."
"Pull Liu Biao in? What's the matter with Liu Biao following Mrs. Mi? Isn't Liu Biao's favorite Mrs. Cai Mao's sister Mrs. Cai?"
"Madam Cai...Bofu, please quickly let our spies in Xiangyang explore. Is there anything unusual about Cai Mao recently? During this period, we should have sent the news to Xiangyang according to His Majesty's instructions. Not only did Liu Bei already know what happened to Guan Yu and Mrs. Mi in His Majesty's palace, but Liu Biao and Cai Mao must have known it too!"
Sun Ce was really a little crazy when he heard this. He didn't understand why he had to involve Liu Biao in the matter of recruiting Guan Yu himself.
At least until now, my relationship with Liu Biao is still good, if this matter has destroyed their relationship.
Sun Ce felt that the unlucky thing was that he needed to recuperate for several years, but he didn't know that Liu Biao, who had been recuperating for many years.
"Cai Mao is indeed an important official of Liu Biao. If Mrs. Cai's brother, the elite navy in Jingzhou would be controlled by him, but his energy would be focused on competing with Mr. Liu Qi for the inheritance rights of Jingzhou. A mere Liu Bei with a few thousand men would not be able to catch his eye!"
After a little thought, Sun Ce had already determined the role Cai Mao played in this matter.
"Liu Bei, Cai Mao, Guan Yu... Bo Fu! I understand what Your Majesty means. You can wait here first. I will go to Your Majesty's palace. Some things must be decided early. You only need to know one thing. Once we have to fight Jingzhou in the past year and a half, how much chance of winning will we have!"
After leaving this sentence, Zhou Yu seemed to have no time to explain, and I had to get in the car quickly and disappeared into Sun Ce's study.
"A year and a half? Damn, Liu Biaoduo is old, I am not afraid of him just like Cai Mao and Zhang Yun!"
With Sun Ce's fierceness, Zhou Yu had already rushed to Liu Xie's palace. His heart was beating because in his heart, he had guessed a very grand plan.
What recruitment of Guan Yu is nothing more than a bystander.
The ultimate goal of this strategy is obviously to make Jiangdong and Jingzhou fight with real swords and guns.
Only after this battle was over, Jiangdong could truly reveal some of the characteristics of overlords.
Otherwise, if Yuan Shao completely disappeared into the dust of history, few people in the world would be able to compete with Cao Cao, regardless of whether he had an emperor in his hands or not.
