Chapter 1039: Attacking Xu is better than focusing on the Northland
Liu Bei and Guan Yu reunited, and everyone led the soldiers and horses all the way to Jingzhou.
However, a few days later, the news reached Luoyang.
In a house in Luoyang City, Liu Weizheng sat opposite Tian Feng and Fu Zhu, talking about the pros and cons of Yuan Shao's army going south.
The servants were talking about the pros and cons of the confrontation between Yuan Shao's army and Cao Cao in Guandu, and a guard's voice came from outside the door: "Your Highness, Liu Bei has betrayed Yuan Shao!" ”
Hearing what the guards said, Liu Wei smiled slightly, and said to Tian Feng and Fuzhu: "This king has long known that Liu Bei will betray his original intention sooner or later!" ”
Tian Feng and Fu Zhu had never heard Liu Wei say that Liu Bei was not, and when he said this, neither of them spoke, just bowed down and waited for Liu Wei to speak.
From the expressions of the two, Liu Wei saw that they didn't know that they didn't like Liu Bei very much, smiled slightly, and said outside the house: "Go inside and talk!" ”
After being greeted by Liu Bian, the guards outside the house strode in, bowed with fists, and said to Liu Bian: "Liu Bei and Guan Yu met, Yuan Gong intended to summon Guan Yu and take him as the vanguard of the three armies. ”
waved his hand at the guards, and when the guards left, Liu Wei said to Tian Feng and Fuzhu: "In the eyes of the two of you, where will Liu Bei go?" ”
Tian Feng and Fu Zhu glanced at each other, and their faces showed confusion, and they didn't know how to respond to Liu Wei.
Liu Bei left Hebei and went all the way to the south, but there were really too many places to go, although Tian Feng and Fu Zhu were wise, they couldn't guess where Liu Bei would go.
"Jingzhou Liu Biao!" The two didn't speak, but Liu Wei smiled and said to them: "Then Liu Bei will definitely go south to Jingzhou and take refuge in Liu Biao!" ”
When Liu Wei said this, Tian Feng and Fu Zhu were both stunned, and Tian Feng even clenched his fists and said to him: "Why did Your Highness expect that Liu Bei would go to Jingzhou?" ”
"Not for anything else, just because he is Liu Bei!" At the mention of Liu Bei, Liu Wei's face showed a touch of disdain, and he said to Tian Feng and Fu Zhu: "Since Liu Bei started his army to fight against the Yellow Turban, he has lived as the emperor himself. This king searched through the family tree, but he did not see any records related to Liu Bei, which shows that this person is definitely a speculator who intends to make profits from the troubled times! ”
Liu Wei's evaluation of Liu Bei was undoubtedly with great contempt.
Tian Feng, who has never liked him very much since Liu Bei took refuge in Yuan Shao, was stunned for a moment after listening to Liu Bian's words, and asked Liu Bian: "Your Highness really thinks that Liu Bei is not the emperor?" ”
"Naturally not!" A faint smile tugged at the corner of his mouth, and Liu Wei said to Tian Feng and Fuzhu: "This king never thinks that Liu Bei is related to the royal family. It is precisely because of this that Liu Bei deliberately curryed favor with the current Majesty in Xudu, and His Majesty did not miss Liu Bei. It's a pity ......"
At this point, Liu Wei stopped talking and did not continue.
Looking at Liu Bian, Tian Feng and Fu Zhu were already stunned, and Fu Zhu even opened his mouth to ask: "Could it be that His Royal Highness thinks ......?"
"This king thinks that the reason why His Majesty was leaked was because of Liu Bei!" Nodding very decisively, Liu Wei did not hesitate to say his guess.
Although he didn't have a good impression of Liu Bei, Tian Feng and Fu Zhu had never thought of him so badly, and after listening to Liu Wei's words, both of them were stunned, their faces were full of astonishment, but they didn't speak again.
"Even so......" After Liu Bian's words, he didn't say anything more, and after a while, Tian Feng said to Liu Bian with a little hesitation: "But how does Your Highness know that Liu Bei will definitely betray Duke Yuan?" ”
"Liu Bei's ambition is big!" With his hands behind his back, Liu Wei stood up, walked to the window, looked out the window and said, "He is the hero of the world, how can he live under the people for a long time?" The initial momentum is great, but Liu Bei is suppressed everywhere, and it is difficult to get used at the beginning, Liu Bei will definitely leave! ”
Tian Feng and Fu Zhu looked at Liu Wei, neither of them said anything, quietly waiting for him to continue.
Looking out of the window, Liu Wei's brows furrowed slightly, and then said: "Then Liu Bei lives with the emperor himself, leaving Benchu and going all the way south, and the people he can go to are none other than Jingzhou, Jiangdong and Bashu." Bashu Liu Zhang, who has always been closed and self-locked, has no quarrel with the world, Liu Bei will definitely not choose to go there! As for Jiangdong Sun Ce, known as the little overlord, he is a hero immediately, how could he allow Liu Bei to cause trouble and go to Sun Ce to seek refuge, just looking for death! ”
"In this way, there is only Jingzhou Liu Biao!" Tian Feng and Fu Zhu glanced at each other, and Fu Zhu clasped his fists and said to Liu Wei: "Your Highness has seen it thoroughly, and Your Majesty is convinced!" ”
"Such a person, wandering the world, every time this king thinks about it, it is like a thorn in his back!" Squinting slightly, Liu Wei took a deep breath and sighed.
After Tian Feng and Fu Zhu said this, they stood up almost at the same time, clenched their fists and bowed, facing Liu Bian.
"It's been some time for the two of you to come to Luoyang!" Turning around, Liu Wei and Tian Feng and Fu Zhu looked at each other and asked them: "The original army has arrived in Guandu, and the soldiers and horses under the command of this king are in the area of Xuanyuan Pass, intercepted by the Cao army. ”
was asked by Liu Bian, Tian Feng and Fu Zhi were stunned for a moment, the two glanced at each other, and both bowed to Liu Bian with their fists, Tian Feng said: "Your Majesty has something to say, but I don't know that it can enter the ears of His Highness." ”
"Could it be that the two of you think that this king is the same as the original?" Smiling slightly, Liu Wei waved his hand at Tian Feng and Fu Zhu and said, "If you have something to say, it doesn't hurt to say it, this king will never blame it!" ”
After Liu Bian's words, Tian Feng's courage strengthened a little, maintained a posture of clenching his fists and bowing down, and said to Liu Bian: "Yuan Gong entered Cao Cao, this battle will be defeated, if His Royal Highness forcibly waves his army eastward, although it will not be like Yuan Gong's defeat like a mountain, but it will not be able to get much benefit." ”
Tian Feng's words can be said to have not beaten around the bush at all, although Liu Wei had already thought of what he was going to say, but after listening to it, his heart was also a little unhappy.
His face was only slightly gloomy, and the corners of Liu Wei's mouth immediately appeared with a smile, and he said to Tian Feng: "Yuan Hao's words are not much different from what this king thinks in his heart!" It's just that I don't know, what does Yuan Hao think this king should do, and what is appropriate? ”
Before getting the news of Liu Bei's departure from Yuan Shao, Liu Wei and Tian Feng and Fu Zhu talked about the Guandu war, at this time the topic returned to Yuan Shao's body, Tian Feng straightened up and said to Liu Wei: "Yuan Gong's soldiers and horses are several times that of Cao Cao, the reason why this battle must be lost is not defeated in the soldiers and horses, nor is it definitely not defeated in the general!" ”
Tian Feng did not directly answer Liu Bian's question, and Liu Biao also knew that he must have wanted to speak clearly, and then proposed to build a word, so he did not interrupt Tian Feng, but waited silently for him to continue.
Seeing that Liu Wei didn't mean to stop him, Tian Feng continued: "Yuan Gong's defeat is because he is too confident!" ”
At this point, Tian Feng stopped talking and raised his eyes to look at Liu Wei.
Liu Wei didn't have any expression on his face, and when Tian Feng stopped talking, he raised his hand towards him and motioned for him to continue.
Seeing Liu Wei's gesture, Tian Feng knew that he was going to continue, so he said: "His Royal Highness's army is attacking Xudu, and Cao Cao will definitely not give His Highness a chance to break through Xudu." Not to mention that the army goes on the expedition, the consumption of grain and grass is not calculated, and the soldiers besiege the city for a long time must be miserable! His Majesty secretly thought that His Royal Highness should abandon Xu Du and then stabilize the northern land, which is the best policy! ”
I never thought about what to do in the north, after listening to Tian Feng's words, Liu Wei said with some doubts: "If Cao Cao breaks the original, Hebei will be in the middle of the world, this king does not compete with Cao Cao for Hebei, but sets his sights on the north, but some are willing to seek the near and far!" ”
"Your Highness only knows one thing, but you don't see the other!" Tian Feng is upright, although he thought in his heart not to provoke Liu Bian, but as soon as he spoke, he was undoubtedly saying that Liu Bian's vision was not transparent enough.
This sentence came out of his mouth, and the frustrated professor on the side glanced at Tian Feng, Tian Feng also knew that he had said it badly, so he hurriedly closed his mouth and did not dare to continue speaking.
Knowing why Tian Feng closed his mouth, Liu Wei smiled slightly, and said to him very generously: "Yuan Hao doesn't need to worry about it, if you have something to say, it's okay to say it, this king listens!" ”
When Liu Bian asked him to continue, Tian Feng breathed a sigh of relief, hugged his fists and bowed, and said to Liu Bian: "Your Highness has already won the Hetao, the Hetao area is vast, although there is no land, but the water and grass are fertile, which is conducive to raising horses, and can be used as His Royal Highness's horse farm!" ”
Pinching his chin and listening to what Tian Feng said, Liu Wei nodded, and then asked: "What Yuan Hao said is exactly what this king is worried about, but this king doesn't know that the Hetao generation already belongs to this king, and what does it have to do with attacking Xu?" ”
"Although the Hetao has belonged to His Royal Highness, the Liaodong generation, I am afraid that it is still in the hands of Gongsun Du!" Holding his fists, Tian Feng raised his eyes and looked at Liu Wei and said, "Wu Huan flattered His Highness earlier, in order to get some benefits from His Highness. The Wuhuan people are like the Huns, they are nomadic and healthy, and what they lack is nothing more than grain, grass, and silk, if Your Highness expands Liaodong......"
"Gongsun Du is meritorious in crusading against humility, how can this king endure to take away his territory!" Without waiting for Tian Feng to finish speaking, Liu Wei waved his hand and said to him: "Yuan Hao must not mention it again at this time!" ”
"Your Highness has misinterpreted Your Majesty's intentions!" Liu Wei obviously thought that Tian Feng wanted him to capture Liaodong, and Tian Feng hurriedly said: "Your Highness does not want His Highness to break through Liaodong, but to ask His Highness to send troops to guard the border of Liaodong, in case Cao Cao will break Yuan Gong in the future and take Liaodong in one fell swoop!" ”
"Do you want this king to send troops to Liaodong to block Cao Cao's army from advancing north?" Squinting his eyes slightly, Liu Wei asked Tian Feng: "It's just that this king doesn't know what the meaning of sending troops to defend Liaodong is!" ”
