Chapter 235: The Southern Heaven Twin Pillars
As soon as Kuai Yue's words were finished, he saw that Guo Jia and Chen Deng were both a little moved.
It seems that this Liu Thorn Shi who rode into Jingzhou alone ...... is still underestimated by the people of this world.
It's really not an idle person.
Liu Biao's ability is unknown to others, but as a potter who traveled to this era in later generations, he still knows how much it is clear.
Many people say that Liu Biao is complacent and does not seek progress, in fact, in the view of the pottery merchants, it also contains some subjective arguments, after all, Liu Biaoqi took office, and then in order to stabilize the situation in Jingzhou, his military power has been not very secure, and many things have been withdrawn from the Kuai and Cai clans, and it is not entirely his fault to make full efforts to forge ahead.
In the Battle of Guandu, Yuan Cao clashed, Liu Biao failed to raise troops in time to conquer Xuchang, invaded Cao Cao's rear and missed the opportunity, so many people felt that Liu Biao was not a person who could achieve great things, but in fact it was not.
Liu Biao did not want to take advantage of Yuan Cao's confrontation and go north to expand his power, but during the Guandu War, Changsha Taishou Zhang Xian raised troops to rebel, Zhang Xian is a native of Nanyang, successively served as Lingling County, Guiyang County, Changsha County Taishou, won the heart of the Jingnan Shi clan, Liu Biao since he took office in Jingzhou, although Zhang Xian nominally surrendered, but in fact has always been a hegemon in Jingnan, almost equivalent to Liu Biao ruling north and south.
Zhang Xian rebelled against Liu Biao during the Guandu War, and with a shout, the four counties of Changsha, Wuling, Guiyang, and Lingling responded to the rebellion, which was basically equivalent to half of Jingzhou.
A fire broke out in Liu Biao's backyard, and during this period, he was basically busy recovering lost territory, and he had no time to expand north.
If Zhang Xian had not rebelled in Jingnan, Liu Biao might not have taken no action during the Yuan Cao War.
At least in the eighteen years that Liu Bao was in charge of Jingzhou, none of the princes in the world could make Liu Biao suffer a big loss, including Cao Cao, and this alone fully proves that Liu Biao is not good.
Based on this, the pottery merchant was not particularly surprised by Liu Biao's move to take advantage of Yuan Shu's eastward crusade and the emptiness in the rear to recapture Nanyang County, which was indeed something that Liu Biao could do.
But the potter had a few questions in his mind, and he needed to explain them to himself.
Liu Jingzhou rode into Jingzhou alone, with the help of the nobles and Cai's power, turned the tide, and sat firmly in Xiangyang, which Tao deeply admired, the previous Jingzhou army ambushed Sun Jian in Xiangyang, and it was even more powerful and powerful, so that the world's heroes were moved! It's just that according to Tao's knowledge, the land of Jingzhou has been full of thieves for many years, and there are many armed heroes, Liu Jingzhou is not thinking about An'an at the moment, but he intends to get involved in the root of Yuan Shu, in case he annoys Yuan Shu and counterattacks each other, when the time comes, he will be worried about internal and external troubles, I don't know how Liu Jingzhou should deal with this matter? ”
In the face of the potter's inquiry, Kuai Yue seemed to be confident.
He stroked the beard on his chin, and said with a smile: "Tao Gongzi doesn't know, before Yue left Xiangyang City and came here, the fifty-five leaders of the Jingzhou Sect thieves had already died in Jiuquan. ”
Chen Deng was on the side, and his heart was suddenly shocked when he listened.
The prosperity of Jingzhou's thieves is known to the world.
The number of thieves in Jingzhou is so large that there are few in all states in the world...... The so-called clan thieves do not refer to thieves, but to the local armed groups formed by clan and township relations, to put it bluntly, somewhat similar to the chaotic people, but not ordinary chaotic people, it is an organized, large-scale, and planned violent group, just like the underworld that has set up halls everywhere, entrenched for many years, mixed with dragons and snakes, and it is very difficult to deal with it.
When Liu Biao first entered Jingzhou, Chen Deng thought that to deal with these local armed forces, he should mainly focus on the Huairou policy...... But who would have thought that as soon as this guy took office, he would cut down all the leaders of the local armed forces composed of these clans?
Such courage and means are indeed rare in the world!
But using such a method is a bit too radical, right? Just took office, Liu Biao is not afraid of causing turmoil?
The potter didn't think like Chen Deng.
The clan thieves are different from the wang family, and the scholar group is involved in the political trend of various states, counties and counties, although sometimes hateful and annoying, but after all, they are all rooted and young, and slaughtering at will will inevitably cause political radical changes and collapse, causing irreparable losses.
But if the clan and other underworld groups want to kill or appease, it depends on the skill and ability of those in power.
If Liu Biao thinks that he can shake the field and control the situation, it is a good thing for him to cut down the grass and eradicate all the grasses and branches of the underworld in these places, which will play an extremely important and enterprising role in stabilizing the peace and unity of the society.
It is everyone's responsibility to fight the underworld and eliminate evil.
Guo Jia obviously thought of going with the potter.
The prodigal son was a little greedy again, so he took out the gourd and shook it, raised his head to drink, wiped his mouth and said: "The Jingzhou clan is not weak in terms of armed strength in various counties and counties, and the leaders of the fifty-five clans have been eliminated...... So how should Liu Jingzhou deal with their subordinates...... Send troops to kill? ”
Kuai Yue laughed when he heard this, and said, "Mr. Guo's words, isn't he testing Yu Yue?" ”
Guo Jiahun said as if he didn't care: "Curious, Guo is just curious." ”
Kuai Yue did not hide his secrets in front of the potter and others, and then told the truth.
"The leader of the sect and thieves, most of them are brutal, and their subordinates are also worried about it, the Zhonglu Kuai clan and the Caizhou Cai clan are all Xiangyang Wang clan, among the subordinates of the two families for many years, there is no lack of cultivation and ability of people, as long as they send people properly, to lure them, the clan leader will come on the order of Liu Zhijun, we seize the right time, first kill its brutal head, and then absorb and appease its subordinates, not only will the people of Jingchu be grateful, but also will praise Liu Jingzhou's merits."
When the potter heard this, he suddenly had some insights in his heart.
Drawing inferences from one another, Kuai Yue's drastic method of soothing and suppressing can also be borrowed after he improves it in the future......
Because the land south of the Yangtze River is not very peaceful.
Hundreds of more and more are thick, and the mountains are all over the place.
Of course, this method may not be suitable for every family to deal with the mountain barbarians in the southeast or the powerful clans in the territory, but if the timing and preparation are right, it will definitely solve a lot of troubles for yourself.
People live, sometimes they can't be ruthless...... Look at the big guy Liu!
The potter has an idea in his heart, but Guo Jia thinks at a deeper level than the potter.
Guo Langzi looked at Kuai Yue fixedly, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but sneer.
What a trick to pretend to be a pig and eat a tiger, a fox fake tiger might!
The Xiangyang Wang clan's Kuai clan and the Cai clan, by helping Liu Biao clean up the clan, are actually expanding the fundamental strength of the two clans in Jingzhou.
Liu Biao recruited the leaders of the fifty-five clans, who do you need? Kuai's and Cai's!
After killing the leader of the sect thieves, Liu Biao wants to incorporate the followers of the fifty-five sect thieves, and the manpower will not be enough at all! Who can be used at this time? Kuai's and Cai's.
After the integration of these fifty-five clan followers, who are those soldiers who are subdued?
Is it Liu Biao? Or the two major families in Xiangyang?
Hehe, this matter works like this, after the clan is collected, Liu Biao doesn't even need to be appointed at all, and the military power of the Xiangyang army is basically in the hands of the Cai and Kuai families.
Is there a separation of powers?
Liu Biao is not simple, but what is more powerful is the two major families of the Kuai family and the Cai family.
In the land of Jingzhou, the interior is not stopped.
In contrast, the level of complexity within Xuzhou ...... That's not bad.
Guo Jia turned his head and looked at the potter, and the two of them tacitly read each other's thoughts from each other's eyes.
The person in front of him is really an amazing character!
Such a character, if he lived in Xuzhou, the potter and Guo Jia would definitely not do what he thought - they would be killed on the spot within seven days! Don't put it off until next week!
But since the other party is Liu Biao's subordinate......
Let's make good friends.
Thinking of this, a sincere smile immediately appeared on the pottery merchant's face, and said: "Listening to Mr. Kuai's words, Liu Jingzhou seems to be intending to take advantage of Yuan Shu to fight with Tao and seize Nanyang County?" ”
Kuai Yue stroked his beard and said with a smile: "The land of the seven counties of Jingzhou, only Nanyang is missing, my lord can't sleep at night, and he can't sleep and eat, Ruyue estimates it is good, Liu Jingzhou has already raised troops to attack Nanyang at this moment, and at that time, my lord will also cut off the grain road leading to the southeast of Nanyang County and disturb the rear of Yuan Shu...... With Yueduzhi, once Yuan Shu knows the news, he will quickly withdraw his troops to seize Nanyang, and then Gongzi and Liu Jingzhou will be able to defeat Yuan Shu and achieve complete success. ”
The potter raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and thought to himself secretly.
It seems that Liu Biao's dispatch of Kuai Yue this time does not seem to be as simple as just selling his favor.
However, it is inconvenient for the potter to ask Kuai Yue directly.
The lord was worried about the humiliation of his ministers, and Chen Deng asked the question in his heart on behalf of the pottery merchant.
"Since Liu Jingzhou intends to seize Nanyang County, he took advantage of Yuan Shu's garrison in the southeast and directly sent troops to grab it back, so why did he come to inform my lord? If you really want to sell my lord a favor, why do you need to send an important town in Jingzhou like Mr.? This move is really speculative, if the gentleman is sincere, you might as well tell me what the true intention of the lord Liu Jingzhou is? ”
Kuai Yue's face was straight, and he said righteously: "Chen Yuanlong is worthy of being the leader of the Xuzhou Shi clan, and he is really good!" The more I admire it...... Yes, if you just want to sell your son a favor, you don't need to come in person, but my Liu Jingzhou intends to take this opportunity to make friends with Prince Taiping. For example, today's chaos, jackals are everywhere, fireworks are pervasive, so that the wolves and dogs are raging, and the servants and servants are in power, and the real virtuous and virtuous people, loyal ministers and righteous people, have to hide their heads and wait for the time of day, in order to serve the court and save the common people from the suffering of fire and water......"
When Kuai Yue said this, he saw that Guo Jia's two eyes suddenly opened round.
The surnamed Guo turned his head to look at the potter, then at Kuai Yue, and said with some uncertainty: "What Mr. Kuai said about the virtuous and virtuous people, loyal ministers and righteous men, should he refer to ......?"
Kuai Yue bowed slightly to the pottery merchant, and said heartily: "It's Tao Fujun who is referring to!" ”
"Vomit ......"
Guo Jia was nauseated for a while, and couldn't help but retch.
Kuai Yue was taken aback when he saw this, and hurriedly said, "Mr. Guo is unwell? ”
Guo Jia weakly glanced at the potter with a side light, waved his hand and said: "It's an old problem, it's okay to make mistakes every once in a while, it's okay to do it." ”
The potter's face was slightly unkind.
Guo Jia's kid has stopped recently, and he is a little untidy.
Kuai Yue said a few prescriptions to Guo Jia with concern, and then continued to Tao Shang: "My family Liu Jingzhou is a relative of the Han family, after King Lu Gong, he was well-known in the world when he was a teenager, and Runan Chen Xiang, Lu Guo Kong Yu, Shanyang Tanfu are listed as 'Eight Jun', and the virtuous name is widely spread all over the world, and Tao Mansion Jun is less than ten years old, he is already the head of a county, and the princes of the world are side by side, and there are Xu Zi will have ten golden comments, and the name Taiping Gongzi...... The more flattering it is, Tao Fujun and Liu Jingzhou can be described as the twin pillars of the Southern Heaven of our Han Dynasty, and they are both world-famous elegant people and gentlemen...... Wouldn't it be a pity if we didn't become allies and have a friendship with each other? ”
"Alliance?" The potter was stunned when he heard this: "Liu Jingzhou wants to form an alliance with me?" ”
