Chapter 194

Jingzhou, Xiangyang.

The prefecture.

Liu Biao got the news that Zhang Xiu defeated Cao Cao and won a great victory, but he was also relieved. Cao Cao sent troops to attack Jingzhou and Nanyang County. Once Zhang Xiu couldn't stop him, Cao Cao would go south and Xiangyang, where he lived, would fall into the flames of war.

However, Zhang Xiu's victory was too easy. He captured Cao Cao's three generals and killed more than ten thousand Cao soldiers. Liu Biao was afraid of such a victory.

Before that, Zhang Xiu went south to Xiangyang to marry Huang Yueying, bringing her relationship with Liu Biao closer. In addition, from time to time, Kuai Yue and Cai Mao would beat the drum and say that Zhang Xiu was not a threat. Liu Biao was quite relieved.

Now Zhang Xiu's victory, Liu Biao's inner fear, once again jumped up.

This is a contradictory mentality.

On the one hand, Liu Biao hoped that Zhang Xiu would win and block Cao Cao's attack. On the other hand, Liu Biao doesn't want Zhang Xiu's strength to be too strong. He even hopes that Zhang Xiu and Cao Cao will lose each other, or that Zhang Xiu will win miserably.

In a word, Zhang Xiu's attitude towards watch is rather complicated.

Liu Biao sat in the room, his heart was too slow to calm down, and his eyes became more and more fierce, so he arranged for someone to invite Kuai Yue.

Soon, Kuai Yue entered the study. When he saw Liu Biao, he bowed to him and sat down.

Liu Biao asked: "in different degrees, what do you think of Zhang Xiu's victory over Cao Cao?"

Kuai Yue thought about it in his heart.

Immediately, he understood.

Liu Biao must have a sense of crisis again, for fear that Zhang Xiu would turn to Xiangyang, so he called him over.

Kuai Yue's expression was calm, and he said: "it's a good thing for Jingzhou that Zhang Xiu won a great victory. Cao Cao had been defeated in the war and could not go south for a long time. But Zhang Xiu won the battle, and I don't know if it will expand. "

He did it on purpose.

As long as Liu Biao has an opinion on Zhang Xiu, he will certainly follow Kuai Yue's words and express his inner thoughts.

This is Kuai Yue's trial.

Sure enough, Liu Biao couldn't wait to say, "I'm just worried about Zhang Xiu's expansion. If he defeated Cao Cao, he would not go north to Guanzhong, but stay in Nanyang County. I'm afraid he has some ideas about Jingzhou. "

Kuai Yue said with a smile, "it's not difficult to solve this problem."

Liu Biao said: "how to say?"

Kuai Yue replied: "the Lord can send a person as an envoy to Yuyang county to reward Zhang Xiu. During the dinner, let the envoys ask, you can feel Zhang Xiu's plan. If Zhang Xiu still goes north, there will be no problem. If Zhang Xiu defeats Cao Cao, she is not going to go north to Guanzhong. I'm afraid she really has an idea about Jingzhou. "

In fact, Kuai Yue is not worried about Zhang Xiu.

He has long been informed that Zhang Xiu's goal this year is Guanzhong, which is a long established plan. Under such a premise, even if Zhang Xiu defeated Cao Cao, it was impossible to change her plan.

After listening to Kuai Yue's suggestion, Liu Biao praised him and said, "what he said in different degrees is very reasonable."

So is his plan.

I want to test Zhang Xiu and see how she thinks about it.

Kuai Yue laughed and said, "I heard from the Huang family that Huang Yueying was pregnant. As Zhang Xiu's uncle, the LORD sent people to Yuyang county to celebrate. That's normal. One is reward, and the other is congratulations. No matter what, there are plenty of reasons to go north. "

Liu Biao was surprised and said, "Zhang Xiu has a wife?"

Kuai Yue said, "yes!"

Liu Biao's eyes narrowed. Suddenly, a cold light flashed through his turbid eyes and said, "strange degree, can you let Huang Yueying go south to Xiangyang to raise her baby? After all, Zhang Xiu's parents have died, and no one takes care of Huang Yueying. It's reasonable for Yueying to have a baby in Xiangyang. "

Kuai Yue sneered.

Liu Biao thought very well. He said that he wanted Huang Yueying to come to Xiangyang to raise the baby. In fact, he wanted Huang Yueying to be a hostage.

It's obviously impossible.

Kuai Yue said decisively: "the Lord knows something. Just two days ago, Huang Yueying's mother had gone north to Yuyang county. It is said that Huang Yueying wrote to ask her to take care of her. "

"Alas..."

Liu Biao sighed.

But he still did not give up, and said: "heterodox, is there no other way? If Huang Yueying can come to Xiangyang, it will do us a lot of good but no harm. "

"No!"

Kuai Yue shook his head and answered.

He has a plan, and it's impossible for him to say it. Because Kuai Yue is loyal to Liu Biao on the surface, in fact, the Kuai family has been subordinated to Zhang Xiu and is on Zhang Xiu's side.

Kuai Yue's eyes were solemn and reminded: "Lord, we and Zhang Xiu have finally relaxed our relationship. Once the relationship gets stiff, it's not good. Please think twice. "

Liu Biao gave a dry smile and said, "I'm just talking."

Kuai Yue said: "my Lord is wise!"Liu Biao changed his mind and stopped talking about Huang Yueying. He said, "I'm afraid you're the best person to go north to test Zhang Xiu. Cai Mao is too stupid. Maybe he will make a fool of himself when he goes to Yuyang county. "

Kuai Yue said: "humble duty, obey me!"

"Go

Liu Biao waved his hand, but there was a strong disappointment on his face.

Kuai Yue didn't speak any more, so he got up and left the prefecture. He went to the government office first and handed over the government affairs. After all, a trip to Nanyang County would take a long time. He can't let government affairs stop, he must do a good job in handover.

After the arrangement, Kuai Yue returns to the mansion.

When he entered the study, he saw Kuai Liang, who was reading a book. He saluted and said, "brother!"

Kuai Liang said, "what's the matter?"

Kuai Yue immediately said about going north to Yuyang county. He also talked about the conversation with Liu Biao. He shook his head and said with a smile, "Liu Biao is afraid of Zhang Taishou after all. It seems that after Taishou Zhang seizes Guanzhong, there may be conflicts. "

Kuai Liang squinted and said, "the so-called conflict is unlikely."

"Liu Biao, I don't have the courage."

"Today's Liu Biao not only defends against Zhang Taishou, but also needs Zhang Taishou as a northern barrier. When Zhang Taishou takes Guanzhong and has the foundation, Liu Biao will turn into a full guard against Zhang Taishou

"But at that time, did Liu Biao dare to go to war with Zhang Taishou?"

"No way!"

"Liu Biao can't have the courage to go to war. He will definitely be a turtle. As long as Zhang Taishou doesn't go south to attack Xiangyang, Liu Biao can't send troops even if he's afraid. "

Kuai Liang's eyes twinkled with wisdom and said, "if it is in peace and prosperity, Liu Biao is a good minister who can govern one side. But this is a time of great struggle. If you don't have the enterprising spirit or the ambition to fight against the world, you will lose all the people. "

Kuai Yue said, "what you said is true."

He agreed with Kuai Liang's analysis.

Liu Biao is just a conservative man who lacks courage and initiative.

Kuai Yue changed his words and said, "I'm looking for my elder brother. I'm going to take the opportunity of going north to send a batch of armor and weapons to prefect Zhang. Another batch of weapons were forged in the family and stored for a long time. Take this opportunity to Yuyang county. What do you think, brother? "

"It works!"

Kuai Liang nodded.

Immediately, Kuai Liang took out a letter from the desk and handed it to Kuai Yue.

Kuai Yue said, "what is this?"

Kuai Liang replied: "it is recorded in this letter that the talents who are living in Jingzhou are all unsuccessful people. After you go to the north, give the letter to Zhang Taishou, and let him try to get all these talents under his command. Although the Kuai family is in the dark, it is not useless. The Kuai family is no less useful than the Pang and Huang families. "

Kuai Yue took it and quickly looked through it. Some of the people he was familiar with, but most of them were not familiar with. He asked, "brother, are you sure these people are talents?"

Kuai Liang nodded.

Kuai Yue didn't doubt it, so he put away the letter and said, "I'll pack up and be ready to leave."

"Go

Kuai Liang waved his hand.

After Kuai Yue left, Kuai Liang sat alone in his study, thinking about Zhang Xiu's current situation. Today, when Zhang Xiu goes north, Kuai Liang agrees. Only by occupying Guanzhong, can Zhang Xiu get ahead.

Those who get the Guanzhong pass get the world!
