Chapter 490
In the palace hall surrounded by the hot air, Liu Xie's top advisers from all over the three states gathered together to discuss the current ills and talk.
With Guo Jia's previous example, everyone was free to speak freely.
Even when it comes to excitement, they can stand up and talk about a difference, and they will not hesitate to fight for red eyes.
Seeing that they were talking happily, Liu Xie couldn't bear his loneliness and joined in. He talked about the three-party war in Yizhou from the simplification of the situation in Guanzhong, and the unknown prospects in Jingzhou to the precautions and restrictions on Sun Jian of Jiangdong and Yuan Shao of Hebei.
As the saying goes, a thousand cups of wine are rare for a bosom friend, and there are too many words without speculation. Unknowingly, these people have not stopped talking until dark.
When Liu Xie saw this, he was also happy that they were so interested, so he ordered his servants to prepare wine, food and food, and then brought them up.
Everyone ate and chatted until late at night, and they got up to leave one after another because they were worried about disturbing Liu Xie's rest.
Liu Xie didn't want to stay, seeing them leaving in twos and threes, Liu Xie couldn't help but nodded in relief.
So far, the three-army competition he held has achieved good results.
As long as the core figures of these states have a deep understanding and understanding of each other, Liu Xie will not have to worry about any mistakes in the joint operations of the states in the future.
However, even though the willows were on the moon and the lights were dim, after Liu Xie sent them away, he was not able to go to rest immediately.
Because before dinner, someone from the Xuanjing Department sent the latest news, and Liu Xie didn't have time to read it because he had to take care of everyone.
"Huh? Kong Ming, Zilong, and Fengshan have already set off and come back. Considering their strength, they might still be able to catch up with Jiang Yong."
Liu Xie came to the study and gently opened the secret letter sent by Xuanjing Division. After reading it, he couldn't help but feel a little surprised and murmured to himself.
It has been a long time since Zhuge Liang went to Yizhou and Nanzhong. Since Zhu Rong came to Chenliu, Liu Xie has not received any news about Zhuge Liang for a long time.
If it weren't for his full confidence in Zhuge Liang and the three of them, Liu Xie would have worried about whether they had any difficulties or their identities would be exposed.
But now it seems that since Zhuge Liang decided to set off and come back, he didn't say that he encountered any setbacks or anything. I think everything went smoothly.
In fact, the real situation is somewhat different from Liu Xie's guess.
After Zhuge Liang and others left Nanzhong and entered Chengdu, due to the natural closure of Yizhou, the Xuanjing Division did not penetrate much here. Zhuge Liang and the others could get very little help, and their plan to fish in troubled waters was repeatedly stranded.
But Zhuge Liang is a figure who is more intelligent than a monster. Obviously, a mere Yizhou can't restrain him, a crouching dragon.
What's more, the stalemate at Mianzhuguan also disappointed the officials and people in Chengdu who were desperately looking forward to victory.
In this way, it became easier for Zhuge Liang to "trick" some talents.
Those who set off with him this time to return to Chenliu were none of the well-known figures in Shuzhong, such as Fei Yi, Dong Yun, Jiang Wan, etc., nor the famous counselor Fa Zhengfa Xiaozhi who stayed in Chengdu to advise Liu Zhang reluctantly.
As for Wang Xuance and Li Wenzhong, they were still dealing with Cao Cao at Mianzhuguan. Although Zhuge Liang also had operations, he couldn't get in touch with them so quickly.
The small fish Zhuge Liang didn't like it, and the big fish had their own opinions. Zhuge Liang knew that staying any longer would have no effect, so he discussed with Zhao Yun and Gao Chong, and the three decided to return to Chenliu.
Of course, it is impossible for Zhuge Liang to return empty-handed.
Although the talents in Chengdu are unwilling to leave with Zhuge Liang now because of the deep-rooted family power in Yizhou, it is not impossible for Jingzhou.
Under the governance of Liu Biao, Jingzhou could once be called the most prosperous state in the nine states of the Han Dynasty.
Even though there were more tigers like Liu Bei later, and the two sides had frictions with each other, Jingzhou was still prosperous and prosperous, and the people lived and worked in peace and contentment without suffering from the war.
It's just that not long ago, under the secret suggestion of Cai Mao, Kuai Yue, and Kuai Liang, Liu Biao ordered the new general Song Jiang to lead Wu Yong, Li Kui, Hua Rong, Shi Bao and other generals to merge the troops and horses of the headquarters. When the main force was dragged behind Mianzhu Pass, it was a great opportunity to suddenly send troops to recover the three counties of Jingbei.
After Song Jiang got the order, he thought for a while and thought of something, but he didn't show his face, and he didn't choose to refuse, but he agreed very straightforwardly.
Moreover, he did not deliberately delay or take the opportunity to ask Liu Biao for food, grass and supplies. He counted the soldiers and horses that day, and led the soldiers to attack Pan Feng the next day.
Coming to Nanyang County again, Song Jiang's mood was different.
The last time he led the Yellow Turban Army, in order to avoid Sun Jian's pursuit, he tried to come to Liu Bei to save his life.
It's a pity that Liu Bei is not in Nanyang, and Pan Feng is cautious. Song Jiang has no choice but to switch to Liu Biao.
Now, Song Jiang personally led an army of [-] to conquer, and fought Pan Feng many times in just a few days.
Relying on Wu Yong's strategy and the bravery of Shi Bao and others, Song Jiang had the upper hand, forcing Pan Feng to retreat to Nanyang City for tight defense.
The surrounding counties and villages were also occupied by the army ordered by Song Jiang.
All of a sudden, the flames of war ignited again in Jingzhou.
During the war, it was the people in Jingzhou who suffered the most and feared the most.
The world is in chaos, after all, no place can be alone.
Countless people are beginning to plan to move their families and find a relatively stable place to live.
Among them, there is another big family called the Ma family.
Although the Ma family is not as powerful or prestigious as the Liu, Cai, Kuai, Huang and other Jingzhou families, they are not at all famous in the local area.
This is because, in the Ma family's generation, there are five talented young people.
The Wuchang of the Ma family include the eldest Ma Xuanma Meng Chang, the second eldest Ma Kang and Ma Zhongchang, the third eldest Ma Liang Ma Jichang, the fourth eldest Ma Jin and Ma Shuchang, and the fifth eldest Ma Su and Ma Youchang.
The five brothers are all famous for their talents, especially the white-browed Ma Liang and the fifth-old Ma Di, who are even more talented.
The Ma family settled in Yicheng, Xiangyang, and was not affected by this war.
But the five brothers are all people with extraordinary knowledge, knowing that as long as Liu Biao hits like this, the last layer of paper between him and Liu Bei will be completely broken.
The day Liu Bei returned to his teacher was the time of great chaos in Jingzhou.
Therefore, they persuaded the elders in the family not to wait until there is no way to retreat before thinking about the future, and to leave Jingzhou, a place of right and wrong, while they still have a choice.
The elders of the family knew that they were extraordinary, so they agreed and began to prepare for the move.
And it was at this time that a group of unexpected people came to the door suddenly.
