Chapter 75 Three Eagles with One Arrow
Sun Ce obviously remembered what Liu Xie had vaguely revealed before, as well as some of Liu Xie's practices that Zhang Hong had mentioned to him. With such a combination, it was not difficult to guess who this person was.
"Yes, I have Liu Bei's two wives at my disposal. He will definitely come to Jiangdong to look for him. I am sure of this."
Zhou Yu was completely confused by the conversation between Sun Ce and Liu Xie. He couldn't bear it anymore and quickly asked: "Is your Majesty talking about your uncle Liu Bei?"
"No, if he comes, I will chop off his head as soon as possible. He is like a bad guy among people. He specializes in disturbing the Lord. If you don't believe me, do the calculations to see if he is sheltered wherever he goes.
Are all his people in bad luck?"
Zhou Yu really thought about it for a while, then nodded numbly and continued to ask: "Who is that?"
"It is Guan Yu who has just killed the famous Hebei general Yan Liang under Cao Cao. It was because he wanted to save Liu Bei's two wives that he was not allowed to surrender to Cao Cao in Xiapi. It was also because of these two women that he was sealed by His Majesty in Xuchang.
A partial general, accompanying Cao Cao on his expedition to Guandu."
Sun Ce didn't want to hear Liu Xie playing charades with Zhou Yu there, so he immediately explained the origin of the two wives, Guan Yu and Liu Bei. Of course, this was what Zhang Hong had explained to him.
"Oh? Could it be that Guan Yu was having an affair with two women?"
Zhou Yu's brain circuit is obviously different from what Sun Ce thinks.
However, his guess was quite to Liu Xie's liking. Hearing this, Liu Xie couldn't help but laugh. Later he realized that as an emperor, his smile seemed a bit vulgar.
"Ahem, according to my observation, this should not be possible. Guan Yu is a bit stubborn and arrogant. Since he has chosen Liu Bei, as long as Liu Bei does not die, he will definitely be loyal to Liu Bei, not to mention he is still a somewhat capable person.
The person who seized Cao Cao's love will not hurt his life. Once he learns that his two sisters-in-law have been taken to Jiangdong, he will come."
Liu Xie patiently explained this sentence, but Zhou Yu still didn't understand and waited with his eyes for Liu Xie's next words.
Liu Xie sighed. This is not to say that Zhou Yu is too stupid, but that he has neither dealt with Liu Bei nor Guan Yu much, and he has not been as familiar with the history of the Three Kingdoms in his previous life, so he cannot analyze it.
It turns out that these two people have normal personalities.
"Once Guan Yu arrives in Jiangdong, his purpose is to take Liu Bei's two wives away from here, and I, the opportunistic emperor uncle, will not stay under Yuan Shao's command after Yuan Shao's defeat, because he wears the imperial edict.
If he falls into the hands of others, he will definitely have no way to survive. I heard that once he breaks away from Yuan Shao, he will go to Liu Biao!"
Connected!
When Zhou Yu heard the words Liu Biao, he suddenly realized that this was how they were connected.
"What your Majesty means is to use Guan Yu and Liu Bei's two wives to coerce Liu Bei and us to cooperate internally and externally to undermine Liu Biao?"
This strategy was instantly formed in Zhou Yu's head, and he felt that with the relationship between Liu Xie and Liu Bei, this matter should not be too difficult to implement.
"Cooperate inside and outside? Whoever you cooperate with should not cooperate with this emperor of mine. Gongjin should indeed be talking about the appearance of this strategy, but it shouldn't be like this on the inside. I had nothing to do but I had thought of one before.
How about we discuss the strategy of killing three birds with one stone?"
"What does it mean to kill three eagles with one stone?"
"Three arrows and three eagles are one man... Well, through a series of operations, we will not only allow Bo Fu to capture Jingzhou at the minimum cost, but also get rid of Liu Bei, the duplicitous fake emperor uncle. In addition,
Guan Yu is such a fierce general, if he is lucky, he can still get it. Isn't this killing three birds with one stone?"
Sun Ce and Zhou Yu did some math in their heads and found that this was really the case.
Guan Yu is not a veteran general, but he has the record of killing Yan Liang. He must be stronger than most generals in Jiangdong.
The most attractive thing to Sun Ce was naturally that he could take over Liu Biao's territory. Sun Ce was not interested in killing Liu Bei at all. He felt that the emperor's uncle might have offended Liu Xie at some point, causing Liu Xie to join him.
Into this plan, I want to get rid of it all.
"Your Majesty, I think you have a plan for a long time. Why don't the three of us discuss it in detail?"
Sun Ce weighed it up and quickly decided to follow Liu Xie's suggestion and leave Cao Cao alone because he didn't seem to have the hard power.
But he could eat grass on the edge of his nest, quickly expand his territory and strengthen his strength, so as to defeat Cao Cao and the others on the frontal battlefield in one fell swoop. This would indeed give him both dignity and face.
Seeing that Sun Ce and Zhou Yu didn't use their own brains, Liu Xie secretly raised his eyebrows and said in his heart that what I want is your lack of ambition.
So Liu Xie called Sun Ce and Zhou Yu to his side. The three of them sat together and spent a long time telling him about the plan that he had planned for more than a month or two.
"Bo Fu, this matter is confidential. Once you plan to implement what I said, except for Gongjin and the three of us, I think it should not be known to outsiders. The key to this matter is Guan Yu. Many people know about it.
, if the news leaks out, not only will he not be used by us, he will also do bad things."
Sun Ce and Zhou Yu naturally understood the powerful relationship between them, and they both nodded when they heard this.
But the two of them were too busy thinking about the strategy Liu Xie just said, and completely forgot about what they had discussed before they came over, to let Liu Xie be used by them, and to act as a puppet while giving them advice with peace of mind.
In the current situation, it was time to make plans and suggestions, but the initiative was completely taken by Liu Xie.
"Your Majesty really knows the temperaments of Guan Yu, Liu Bei and others very clearly!"
After Zhou Yu digested this strategy, he realized that if he had not already understood Liu Bei and Guan Yu thoroughly, he would not have dared to do this.
Most people would not believe that Guan Yu could be lured over just by relying on two Liu Bei's wives.
It is even more nonsense that Liu Bei will join Liu Biao in the near future. Zhou Yu and Sun Ce did not believe it at first, but after Liu Xie explained the reasons for his judgment in detail, they were unable to refute it.
The reason why Liu Xie's plan is credible is not only because he succeeded in running out of Xuchang almost on his own, nor because he helped Sun Ce avoid life and death, but because Liu Xie came up with a plan.
