Four hundred and fiftieth chapters blue-eyed confusion
Chapter 453: Biyan's Confusion (Second Update)
Outside the city of Calcium City, Liu Qi led a thousand elite troops to greet Liu Bei in the middle of the road.
These thousand soldiers were quite majestic, each with a mighty appearance, burly figure, and without squinting.
Calcium City is also a big city.
In the past, before Liu Feng occupied Jiangxia, Jiangxia was the barrier to the east of Jingzhou. Later, Liu Feng occupied Jiangxia, which was extremely unfavorable for Jingzhou.
Because Liu Biao favored his youngest son, Liu Qi was sent by Liu Biao to Calcium City and ordered to recruit 20,000 troops.
These 20,000 troops can be said to be a continuation of Liu Biao's power, a slight amount of troops.
But Liu Qi did not have much courage or ability. But Liu Qi was also a person with goals, and his goal was to let Jing Chu continue his surname to Liu.
He didn't know that Liu Bei might be a water-filled pork or a fake royal family. No one in the world knew about it. Perhaps Guan Yu and Zhang Fei didn't know about Liu Bei's life experience.
Liu Qi only knew that Liu Bei's surname was Liu, and he was the emperor's uncle who was personally issued an edict and officially recognized by Emperor Liu Xie.
No matter what Liu Qi is or not, Liu Qi just wants to hand over this power of Calcium City to Liu Bei to resist Cao Cao.
In addition, there is a personal grudge.
Liu Bei and Liu Feng had a grudge, and Liu Qi had a grudge. In the past, Liu Feng expelled Liu Biao's follower, and Liu Pan caused Liu Qi to lose foreign aid. It can also be said that the grudge was deep like the sea.
So after Liu Bei sent an envoy to Calcium City, he did not obstruct at all, and Liu Qi immediately agreed to the union.
Liu Bei experienced the tragic battle at Changbanpo, saying that the pain was because Liu Bei lost all his elite troops there, a total of 3,000 soldiers.
Liu Feng snatched away his wife Gan and noble concubine Mi. Mi Zhu, Mi Fang and others.
This is a substantial benefit.
Spiritually, Liu Bei suffered a huge blow.
The original plan was to travel to the city of Calcium, meet with Liu Qi's 20,000 troops, and then go south to Xiakou. With the help of Liu Feng's power, he would fight against Cao Cao.
Now, Liu Feng blocked the road. In other words, Liu Bei could only guard the Calcium City.
decadent.
From Changbanpo to the road to the city of Calcium, Liu Bei was left with only hundreds of cavalry, as well as a group of generals and counselors.
Liu Bei exuded a decadent aura visible to the naked eye.
However, when Liu Bei saw Liu Qi and the thousand soldiers behind him, Liu Bei's heart was a little excited.
There are 20,000 troops, plus six cities including Calcium City.
This force is also extremely rare in the history of Liu Bei's conquest of the world. It was only comparable to that of Xuzhou in the past.
If you have soldiers, you can fight, and if you have war, you may not lose.
This is Liu Bei's theory.
"I'm scared. The mansion has been prepared in the city, and my uncle can be resettled immediately." Seeing that Liu Bei's people arrived, Liu Qi stepped forward and said to Liu Bei who was leading the way.
Liu Qi had also heard about Changbanpo and knew that Liu Bei had suffered a lot of losses in his battle.
Liu Qi's comfort made Liu Bei even more embarrassed. When did Liu Bei disdain to make a child sympathize with him?
"I lost the city and lost my soldiers. Uncle Wei can only bother you." I felt embarrassed, but Liu Bei smiled and said with a smile on his face.
"It's okay." Liu Qi shook his head and said, "The Cao thief uses the emperor to command the world, and the thief's heart is obvious. My father was originally in charge of Jingchu and maintaining the Han Dynasty. But now my father has gone, and Liu Cong has promoted Xiangyang and Jiangling to surrender Cao. Liu Feng is even more surnamed Kou, who is not from my Liu clan. None of them is reliable. Only my uncle is capable of commanding the soldiers, maintaining Jingchu and maintaining the Han Dynasty."
Liu Qi has a innocent heart, and the more he talks, the more excited he becomes.
"Please ask your uncle to take over the Calcium City and command the soldiers to protect Jingchu." Finally, Liu Qi even turned over and dismounted, knelt in front of Liu Bei, and kowtowed.
"Please take over the imperial uncle and command the soldiers to protect Jingchu." Some generals behind Liu Qi and civil officials also turned over and dismounted and asked.
This was definitely beyond Liu Bei's expectations. He thought it would take a little time and energy to seize military power, but he didn't expect that Liu Qi would cooperate like this.
Looking at Liu Qi and thinking about the 20,000 elite soldiers in Calcium City, Liu Bei's heart became even more excited.
"Qi'er gets up." Liu Bei turned over and dismounted, helped Liu Qi up with his own hands. Looking at Liu Qi's sincere eyes, Liu Bei said earnestly and excitedly: "Don't worry, if you are Uncle Wei, you will definitely not let Cao Jie get involved in Jingchu and Han Dynasty."
"Thank you uncle." Liu Qi said solemnly.
This scene in front of the city gate is considered to be Liu Bei's official entry into the Calcium City.
After Liu Bei and Liu Qi said a few words to each other, Liu Qi invited Liu Bei to enter Calcium City.
One day, Liu Bei began to plant Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Chen Dao and others into the army. In addition, according to Xinye's model, Zhuge Liang, Jian Yong, Sun Gan and others were appointed as officials to govern the Calcium City and the other five cities around the Calcium City.
In the evening, Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang had a secret conversation in the study. The two sat opposite each other, with a huge map of Jingchu in the middle.
Although Liu Bei did not sleep well once, he had a city with 20,000 soldiers. Liu Bei's psychological pressure had been reduced, and his entire aura had also recovered.
Zhuge Liang was as calm as usual.
The map in front of them was made up of six cities with the city of Calcium as the main city, with Xiangjiang River above and Yangtze River below, just like a peninsula. There are 150,000 or 60,000 people living there.
If Cao Cao attacked, he could only attack from Calcium City. It was a region that was easy to defend and difficult to attack. Now, there were only two ways in front of Liu Bei. One was to garrison himself, but he might be defeated and killed in January and February.
The second route is to ask Sun Quan from Jiangdong to send troops to station. However, this route is hard to say. Liu Feng's attitude impressed Liu Bei.
Since Liu Feng can reject him, Sun Quan can do the same.
In addition, even if Sun Quan was willing to send troops to station, he had to send his army over. Because there was a Jiangxia between them. Whether it was water or land, Sun Quan's army could not reach Calcium City.
Alas, if it were when the Jiangdong Navy was in its prime, there would be no risk of going on the water. But now, the Jiangdong Navy is in ruins.
After discussing for a while, they realized that the way out was difficult. The joy of entering the city gate just now faded a lot. They couldn't help but feel silent.
"Sir, I still don't believe that Liu Feng doesn't accept me. Even if I use it, I have value for it. 20,000 elite soldiers are somewhat powerful." Liu Bei suddenly spoke, with a very unwilling look in his eyes.
"It's not a false act, it's an iron heart." Zhuge Liang recalled Liu Feng's firmness, resoluteness, and extremely firmness when he spoke. He couldn't help but sigh and said.
"Oh." Liu Bei sighed deeply.
He felt that he was humble. In Changbanpo, Liu Feng deliberately refused to save him, causing his three thousand soldiers to be destroyed, and abducted the Gan family, Mi family, Mi Zhu, Mi Fang and others.
It slapped him in Liu Bei's face hard, and it still hurts.
Liu Bei also felt ashamed of meeting the generals and ministers in a speechless manner. But now, Liu Bei discovered that as soon as Liu Feng opened his mouth, he would lend them a city.
He would lead the soldiers to Hannan and settle down.
This is not a slut, what is it?
"At present, I have been to Jiangdong for some ministers to personally try to lobby Sun Quan for support." Zhuge Liang said helplessly.
"Just send Xianhe to you, you don't have to go there in person." Liu Bei was surprised and blurted out.
This sentence is definitely from the sincerity. At present, only Zhuge Liang is under Liu Bei, who is talented. If Zhuge Liang is lost, Liu Bei will not have much confidence to rise again.
Listening to Liu Bei's concern, Zhuge Liang's heart felt a little warm. But the current situation was really dangerous. Zhuge Liang's heart to go to Jiangdong was very determined.
"Even if I go there in person, the chance of success is only 30%. In addition, Liu Fengheng is between the two places. The chance is even slim. If Xianhe goes there, I'm afraid." Zhuge Liang shook his head and sighed.
Liu Bei was reluctant to leave, but he also knew that Zhuge Liang was the best candidate at the moment. In the end, he could only sigh helplessly and said, "When will we set off?"
"Tomorrow, the faster the better." Zhuge Liang whispered.
"Be careful." Liu Bei reminded.
"Don't worry, lord, I will be careful." Zhuge Liang nodded.
At this point, the plan of the two has also taken shape. On the one hand, if Liu Feng changes his mind, even if there is a slight chance, Liu Bei will abandon Calcium City and go to Xiakou happily.
On the other hand, we can only hope to have Sun Quan's power.
After the two continued to say a few words, Zhuge Liang stood up and said goodbye.
"When will we be like Liu Feng and Sun Quan, holding powerful soldiers, with strong generals and counselors like rain. If you want to form an alliance, you can form an alliance, and if you want to abandon it, you can abandon it." After Zhuge Liang left, Liu Bei smiled bitterly.
There is envy, jealousy, and hatred.
………………………….
Yuzhang, what about the mansion that Sun Quan temporarily resettled.
Sun Quan sat in the first place, Zhou Yu, Lu Su, Zhang Zhao and others sat on both sides, and the four of them had a little heavy face.
"I thought that as soon as Liu Bei arrived at the city of Calcium, he would gather 20,000 Liu Qi's soldiers and go south to Xiakou to guard the city. Unexpectedly, Liu Bei began to recruit people to raise the city, thicken the city walls, and prepare for the city guard equipment. All kinds of actions showed that the relationship between Liu Bei and Liu Feng was different from what we imagined. What was going on?" Sun Quan said in confusion.
Liu Bei and Liu Feng were both powerful, which is almost universally known to everyone in the world. According to the script of their Jiangdong people, Liu Feng should be combined with Liu Bei, and must be combined, and must be combined.
But in the end, it was miscalculated.
Liu Bei actually acted like he was defending the Calcium City. What was going on? It was obvious that Liu Bei should know that relying solely on Calcium City could not prevent Cao Cao.
Then why did Liu Bei choose to defend Calcium City?
The answer was about to come out, that was, Liu Bei was abandoned by Liu Feng.
This is difficult to explain. Isn’t Liu Feng wise? No, Liu Feng was very wise, otherwise he would not have been able to conquer seven counties in two years and gather 100,000 troops.
When news came, Wen Pin had already led an army of 20,000 to Liu Feng. Is such a person not wise?
Let's joke.
But it is really hard to understand that such a person with a wise monarch who abandoned Liu Bei's power.
