Three Kingdoms: The ghost plotter taught Liu Bei to seize Jingzhou first

The first year of Jian'an, 196 AD.

Xuzhou, North Bank of Huai River

"I am the envoy from Jingzhou, specially coming to save the life of your lord Liu Xuande. Go and pass the message quickly!"

Outside the Xuzhou Army camp, a young man in a green shirt shouted loudly at the camp gate.

Good guy!

He is Liu Biao's envoy, and he claims to save the life of his state pastor. This person must be a big shot.

The guard at the camp gate was immediately frightened and did not dare to neglect, so he hurriedly went to pass the message

"Brother...Brother, is it appropriate for us to pretend to be Liu Jingsheng's envoy?"

The stuttering boy dressed as a book boy next to him looked like he was a thief with a guilty conscience.

"Xiao Ai, you don’t understand"

"How could it be possible to trick Liu Xuande into seizing Jingzhou without resorting to extreme measures? This was a last resort for my brother."

The corners of the young man's lips turned cunning.

The boy said"Oh", his eyes half understanding.

"Routine Liu Xuande? What is a routine?"

"My brother is saying some mysterious and obscure things again. I have to write it down and think about it later.……"

The book boy murmured to himself, hurriedly took out a bamboo slip, and carved the word"routine" seriously.

A quarter of an hour later.

The young man in green shirt sat high in the Chinese army's tent as a distinguished guest.

Liu Bei looked at the Jingzhou envoy in front of him with a complicated expression.

Only half a year ago, he was just a small plain county magistrate. In the blink of an eye, he became the shepherd of Xuzhou, on an equal footing with the princes from all over the world.

He knew very well that most of the princes from all walks of life looked down upon his origin and did not recognize him as a Xuzhou shepherd.

Yuan Shu was even more furious and led his army directly to the north to capture Xuzhou from him. He was forced to lead his army south to fight against Yuan Shu, and faced Yuan Shu on the Huai River.

At this juncture.

As a well-known figure in the country, Liu Biao, the shepherd of Jingzhou who was from the same clan as the Liu family, sent an envoy to communicate with him.

Liu Bei was quite flattered.

But there was also some surprise and confusion.

This messenger kept claiming that he was coming to save his life!

What does this mean?

"May I ask your name? Liu

Bei temporarily suppressed his confusion and asked politely.

"I am, Deng Mu, Nanyang, courtesy name Ziyu"

"Deng Mu?"

Liu Bei's eyes flew, and he searched his mind for a long time, but he couldn't think of such a number one person.

He turned back to look at Guan Yu, and Guan Yu also shook his head, saying that he had never heard of this name.

"Shicai soldiers communicated that envoy Deng claimed that he had come to rescue Liu Jingsheng on his orders."

"I don’t know what this statement means, so I asked Ambassador Deng to clarify it. Liu

Bei had no choice but to turn around and continue to ask.

Deng Mu sipped the tea in the cup and said calmly:

"Xuzhou is the place of the Four Wars, with Cao Cao in the west, Yuan Shao in the north, Yuan Shu in the south, and within it there is Lu Bu, an unfed wolf."

"Surrounded by such a group of enemies, Liu Shijun has only a small army and few generals. It is really extremely dangerous."

"Therefore, my family, Zhou Mu, would like to ask Liu Shijun to give up Xuzhou and go to Jingzhou for a reunion."

After hearing these words, the little book boy next to him could n't help but secretly give a thumbs up. You are so awesome if you can make up such a bunch of lies to the shepherd of a state without blushing...

Liu Bei's expression changed after hearing this. Slight change.

After saying so much, translated, I just want to say that Liu Biao thinks you are too weak.

Your life will be at stake sooner or later if you continue to guard Xuzhou. Hurry up and run away with your bucket. Come and hang out with me in Jingzhou.

"Brother Jing Sheng is very grateful for your kindness."

"I am just entrusted by Tao Gong to take over Xuzhou. Even if there are internal and external troubles, I should do my best to protect the land and bring peace to the people. I am afraid that I cannot abandon the soldiers and people of the state."

Liu Bei did not show his displeasure, and still politely declined.

Guan Yu was not so good-tempered.

Liu Biao sent an envoy from afar, openly saying that his eldest brother was not good enough, and asked him to behave well and send him to Jingzhou. Under the fence?

You, Liu Biao, are not here to support my eldest brother, are you here to ruin the show?

"My brother has tens of thousands of powerful soldiers. In military affairs, I and Yide are his generals, and in literature, Sun Qian, Jian Yong and others are his advisers."

"Even if he is surrounded by enemies, what is there to fear about my brother?"

"Your master, Liu Jingsheng, may not underestimate my brother too much."

Guan Yu Danfeng squinted at Deng Mu and expressed his dissatisfaction bluntly.

The atmosphere in the tent immediately became unfriendly.

Liu Bei coughed a few times, not knowing what to say to ease the embarrassment in the tent.

The attitudes of the two brothers , Deng Mu was not surprised.

Instead of doing what the good boss did, he went to other people's territory to live under other people's fences and looked at other people's faces. He would not do it for anyone else.

That's why he chose this moment to pretend to be Liu Biao's envoy. To trick Liu Bei

"Liu Shijun is naturally a heroic leader, and General Guan and General Zhang are indeed brave enough to fight against ten thousand enemies. They are the best tiger generals in the world."

"It's a pity that Liu Shijun's foundation is too shallow, and he has been in the position of Zhou Mu for too short a time. There is no time to consolidate his power and win the hearts of Xuzhou."

"When the official is talking to the envoy here, Xiapi may have been captured, and Xuzhou will no longer be owned by the envoy!"

As soon as he said this,

Liu Bei's face suddenly changed.

Guan Yu's half-opened and half-closed red phoenix eyes suddenly stared straight.

"What did Ambassador Deng say? Liu

Bei asked anxiously.

Deng Mu said slowly,"Because Lu Bu will attack Xiapi secretly!""

Liu Bei was shocked, but his face seemed to be unbelievable.

"Lu Bu was expelled from Yanzhou by Cao Cao and had nowhere to stay. I kindly took him in."

"Ambassador Deng said he would repay kindness with hatred, so he stabbed me in the back?"

Deng Mu sighed secretly.

This is Liu Bei.

In this era of intrigues, natural political animals like Yuan Shao and Liu Biao have long regarded gains and losses as the only criterion for action.

But Liu Bei's outlook on life has always given"righteousness""The word"has a place".

Cao Cao was able to put aside the revenge of killing his son and accept Zhang Xiu's surrender for the so-called overall situation.

However, Liu Bei ignored the dissuasion of his ministers and Sun Quan's request for peace. In order to avenge Guan Yu, he raised an army to destroy the country. Wu.

It is naturally difficult for such a person to believe that Lu Bu would betray his faith, repay kindness with hatred, and stab him in the back. To put it bluntly, this is naive and pedantic.

But from another perspective, this is because Liu Bei is an idealist. Prove it

"Who is Lu Bu?"

"That is a man who killed his father twice and has never known what loyalty and integrity are!"

"There is no difference between expecting such a person to repay his kindness and expecting the sun to rise from the west. Isn't it deceiving himself and others?"

Deng Mu took off Lu Bu's underwear with a sarcastic look on his face.

Liu Bei looked stern.
