This side of Xiangyang.

There were many anti-Cao people in Jingzhou, and now Cao Cao's 800,000-strong army has spread in the Xiangyang area, and many anti-Cao people have moved south.

A large number of scholars and scholars from the poor family poured into Jiangxia and Changsha counties, including Sima Hui, Pang Degong, and Huang Chengyan.

The Pang family and the Huang family are both famous families in Jingchu, but now they have given up their ancestral business and led most of the clansmen to the south, leaving only a small number of domestic slaves to take care of the ancestral property in Xiangyang.

Coupled with a water mirror Sima Hui, all three of them have a high reputation in Jingzhou, and they are all staunch anti-Cao people.

One is to avoid this war, and the other is to not want to have anything to do with Cao Cao.

Sima Hui and the other three moved south, in addition to disgusting Cao Cao, but also because of the relationship between Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong, the two of them, under the instruction of Liu Jue, intentionally or unintentionally reminded the three that Liu Jue would not stick to Xiangfan.

The three old men were all smart people, and they immediately knew that this was what Liu Jue meant, although they didn't understand Liu Jue's intentions, they still decided to move south.

The three of them have been in Jingzhou for decades, not only have enough prestige, but also have countless disciples, with them taking the lead in the front, many scholars have also moved south.

In addition, many civilians also began to move south, in order to hide from Cao's army.

Liu Bei said that Cao Cao was a murderer, but these were all learned from Liu Biao, so many people in Jingzhou were very afraid of Cao Cao.

Of course, Liu Jue was very happy about the southward migration of the three old men, and he still had to rely on the help of these three people to establish the imperial examination system in the future.

Before the three old men moved south, Liu Jue summoned the ministers of Xiangyang to discuss how to deal with Cao Cao.

Of course, Liu Jue is just doing a show, the main purpose is to see who is the Cao Descending faction.

Now that Liu Jue and Cao Cao are on opposite sides, he must eliminate these people who are bent on surrendering to Cao as soon as possible, and wait until there is a chance to settle accounts in the future.

The first to stand up was Dong Cao Peng Fu Xun, followed by Han Song, Liu Xian, Zhang Yun, etc.

Especially Zhang Yun, who is Liu Jue's nephew, his mother is Liu Jue's aunt, and Liu Jue is a cousin, and now he also stands up and proposes to surrender Cao.

As for Cai Mao, Kuai Yue, and Kuai Liang, these people who had long wanted to surrender to Cao Cao did not speak at this time, but everyone already knew it.

Liu Jue didn't have any expression on his face, but he sneered in his heart, and he had silently written down the names of these people.

It's not that Liu Jue doesn't want to kill these people, it's just that these people have a certain reputation in Jingzhou, and if they kill them rashly, it will affect Liu Jue's reputation.

And these are small characters, if you don't kill them now, it won't affect the overall situation, anyway, there will be opportunities in the future.

After this discussion, Liu Jue sent Cai Mao and Kuai Yue to guard Fancheng, accompanied by Han Song, Fu Xun and others, and asked Wen Ping to lead an army of 20,000 and follow him to garrison Xiangyang.

Two days later, Liu Jue received the news that Liu Bei, a generation of heroes, had died.

Liu Bei's death was caused by Liu Jue, so he was not too excited as he expected, but his mood was very happy.

Liu Bei always thinks about Jingzhou, if he doesn't get rid of this guy, Liu Jue will be uncomfortable sleeping, and now he has finally solved a heart disease.

But happy is happy, the surface work still has to be done, Liu Jue immediately sent someone to mourn Liu Bei.

At this time, in the north, Cao Cao's army had already set out from Wancheng, with Yu Ban as the vanguard army, leading an army of 20,000 to open the way, all the way to the momentum.

It was at this time that the system's task prompt finally appeared again.

"Ding! Because Cao Cao led the army south, activating the epic battle 'Battle of Red Cliffs'. Condition 1: Form an alliance with Sun Quan, Condition 2: Do not allow Cao's army to cross the Yangtze River, Condition 3: Defeat Cao Cao's army. "

"Task reward 1: The Blue Sparrow Treasure Knife evolves into the Emperor Sword, and the host opens the Son of Heaven's destiny. "

"Task reward 2: 50,000 elite soldiers and horses, including 25,000 cavalry and 25,000 foot soldiers. "

"Task reward three: a military general with a command or force of more than 90, a civil minister with an intelligence or politics of more than 90, and a famous beauty during the Three Kingdoms period. "

"Ding! After completing the 'Battle of Red Cliffs' campaign, the host's prestige in Jingzhou will reach its peak, and it will affect the hearts of other forces, helping the host to unify the world. "

"Poof!" Seeing the last reward, Liu Jue almost didn't squirt out, but he didn't expect the system to reward beauties.

It's just the beauties of the Three Kingdoms period, and there are only a few people who can count them, such as Diao Chan, Zhen Ji, Jiangdong Erqiao, etc., now Sun Shangxiang and Xiao Qiao are already Liu Jue's women, and Da Qiao is also in his hands.

Diao Chan is nowhere to be found now, it is estimated that she has hung up a long time ago, Zhen Ji is Cao Pi's woman, Cai Wenji was taken away by the Huns, I really don't know who else.

"This beauty doesn't need it, it's better to have two more civil generals. "With Liu Jue's current identity, if he falls in love with any beauty, it is not a matter of his words, and there are already several at home.

"Ding! The host is a prince, in addition to developing power, it is also important to develop a harem. The system prompted coldly.

"You cow!"

Liu Jue was speechless for a moment, and then said curiously: "What is the destiny of the Son of Heaven?"

"Ding! After the host opens the Son of Heaven Destiny, it can improve the host's own Son of Heaven Destiny by annexing other princes and plundering their luck. "

"In addition to the host's own luck, you also need to collect the other eight pieces of luck, as the more luck you plunder, the prestige of the host will also be, and when all the nine qi luck are collected, then the destiny of the Son of Heaven will be condensed and formed, and the host will achieve the achievement of the first emperor through the ages. "

"Nine Ways of Luck?, One Emperor of the Ages?" Liu Jue couldn't help but widen his eyes.

Liu Jue counted carefully, in addition to himself, the warlords in the world also include Cao Cao, Sun Quan, Liu Zhang, Zhang Lu, Ma Chao, Han Sui, Gongsun Kang, and Shi Xie, don't they add up to exactly eight ways?

"In other words, after I dominate the world, will I become the first emperor of the ages?" Liu Jue felt puzzled in his heart, is it so simple to become the first emperor of the ages?

Now that the world is in turmoil, the people are eager for stability, if the host can end the troubled times, he will gain great prestige and merit, just like Qin Shi Huang unified the six countries, Liu Bang ended the troubled times since the end of Qin, and naturally achieved the first emperor through the ages. "

Liu Jue suddenly understood a little, to put it bluntly, if he rules the world and returns the people to a peaceful and prosperous world, the merit caused is immeasurable.

After all, since the Yellow Turban Rebellion, in just over 20 years, too many people have died in the world.

Before the Yellow Turban Rebellion, the population of the Eastern Han Dynasty was still about 50 million, but by the time the Wei, Shu and Wu Kingdoms were established, the population of the world was estimated to be less than 10 million.

For example, the population of Shu was only more than 900,000 at its peak.

After understanding this, Liu Jue no longer had any doubts in his heart.
