Chapter 541: The Lion Opens His Mouth
"Prefect Xun, please calm down. This time my lord knew he was wrong, so he specially ordered me to come here to make amends. I also ask Prefect Xun to be lenient and allow you to meet General Wei below to ask for forgiveness!"
When Liu Xian came, Kuai Liang had already ordered him to die!
In any case, at least get back the condition that the other party is willing to reconcile.
If you can't even see Liu Zhang's face, how can you return to Jingzhou with a face.
"Liu Biejia, I can assure you, my lord is not as easy to talk to as I am!"
Xun You sneered again and again, killing intent flashed in his eyes frequently.
How could Liu Xian not understand the implication of Xun You's words? He had already told himself nakedly that going to Chengdu would risk his life!
"Prefect Xun, if my life can appease General Wei's anger and make General Wei willing to forgive Liu Jingzhou and help the Han Dynasty together with Liu Jingzhou, why would Liu Xian spare his life!"
In this era, people with high moral character are often respected. Now Liu Xianhan is not afraid of death and is willing to use his life to resolve the grievances between Jingzhou and Yizhou. He has indeed won the respect of Xun You.
"Hey, Liu Biejia is really a noble man. If everyone in Jingzhou is like Liu Biejia, why worry about chaos, thieves and injustice, and the prosperity of the Han Dynasty?"
Seeing that Xun You's tone slowed down, Liu Xian quickly stood up and bowed in salute.
"Thank you for the praise from Prefect Xun. It's just that although Liu Xian stole the position of Bie Jia, he is really insignificant among the talents in Jingzhou!"
"Prefect Xun is a member of the Xun family in Yingchuan, so he naturally knows that my master is one of the 'Eight Talents', whether it is virtue or talent, he is the best in the world!"
"Liu Jingzhou has the Han Dynasty in his heart, and he is willing to obey Yuan Shao's orders. It is also to assist Yuan Shao to suppress the rebellion and restore the Han Dynasty as soon as possible! I also hope that Governor Xun will investigate clearly!"
Xun You stepped forward to support Liu Xian, and then sighed heavily.
"Hey! Liu Biejia doesn't know something. My lord is determined to conquer, and I don't see any envoys from Jingzhou. He also gave me a strict order that Jiangling, the southern county, must be taken down!"
Xun You's tone was calm and his attitude was very serious, which immediately frightened Liu Xian.
"Ah! What should I do? Once Jing and Yi go to war, the people of the two prefectures will definitely suffer. Regardless of the outcome, it will be a loss for those loyal to the Han clan!"
Liu Xian paced back and forth anxiously, like ants on a hot pot. He is well aware of the current situation in Nanjun. If Xun You's soldiers are fast, Jiangling will be lost!
Once Jiangling is lost, it will be very difficult to negotiate!
"Xun Taishou, I know that you are General Wei's confidant and important minister, please persuade General Wei, I hope General Wei will be lenient, and focus on revitalizing the great cause of the Han Dynasty, don't do things that hurt your loved ones and make your enemies happy! "
Xun You's purpose was only to put pressure on Jingzhou and give Liu Xian the feeling that he was about to attack the city. If the bite is too tight, if Liu Xian can't bear it and returns to Jingzhou, and Yizhou does not send troops in the end, the situation will reverse again.
In addition, Xun You has already learned about Liu Zhang's conquest in the south. No matter how strong Yizhou's military is, it will definitely not be able to fight on both sides.
"Liu Biejia, this matter is not up to Xun to decide. How about this, Liu Biejia is now living in Yufu, and I will also postpone sending troops. I will not care about anything until I meet my lord!"
"Thank you, Prefect Xun! Thank you! Thank you!"
Liu Xian's hanging heart was finally relieved, which was a sign that the two sides gave each other a step.
As long as Xun You does not send troops, everything can be redeemed.
Xun You, who agreed to Liu Xian's request, did not procrastinate, and left Yufu for Chengdu that day.
Xun You didn't really go to see Liu Zhang, he just made a show for Liu Xian.
At this moment Liu Zhang has gone south, and has handed over all matters in Jingzhou to Xun You.
Three days later, Xun You returned as scheduled, accompanied by Zhang Yun and Cai Zhong who were captured in Hanzhong.
Xun You was not in a hurry to imprison the two, but immediately brought them to Jingzhou Biejia Liu Xian.
"Meet Taishou Xun!"
After the two greeted each other, Xun You waved his hand, and the soldiers escorted them in.
"Liu Biejia, do you know these two people?"
Liu Xian hurriedly turned his head to look, and saw the two behind them with disheveled hair, torn clothes, and foul smells from their bodies.
However, Liu Xian recognized Zhang Yun and Cai Zhong at a glance, and now he has no doubts about the situation in Hanzhong.
"Prefect Xun, I don't know if General Wei is willing to let me go?"
Liu Xian directly ignored the two, unwilling to talk to these two defeated generals.
"Liu Biejia, my lord has personally led an army of 50,000 troops, and he is now stationed in Bodao. If Liu Biejia doesn't believe me, you can ask the two generals Cai and Zhang..."
"Oh, by the way, Bodao Road is next to the Yangtze River. If you go down the river, you can reach Yufu in one day."
Xun You was worried that Liu Xian didn't understand the meaning of Bo Dao, so he quickly explained it to him.
"What! Is General Wei going east to Jingzhou?"
Liu Xian immediately panicked. He thought seeing Zhang Yun and Cai Zhong was a signal of peace from Liu Zhang, but he didn't expect it to be an ultimatum.
Xun You nodded with an unusually serious expression, but then shook his head again.
"The preparations for going east to Jingzhou are complete, but there is still a glimmer of hope."
"Also ask Taishou Xun to enlighten me!"
Liu Xian's heart seemed to be on a roller coaster, with ups and downs all the time.
"My lord is deeply resentful of Liu Jingzhou's fratricide. I wanted to personally send troops to teach him a lesson! But my lord is a loyal minister of the Han Dynasty after all. How can His Majesty raise troops wantonly if there is no order? You will tell the great mission of the world and the revival of the Han Dynasty , and finally suppressed the lord's Dongjin heart for the time being!"
"It's just to let my lord stay on hold for the time being, will he send troops to attack Jingzhou in the end..."
Liu Xian nodded quickly. He would be really stupid if he didn't understand this.
"I understand, I understand! Liu Jingzhou has full sincerity! As long as General Wei can turn war into jade, our Jingzhou is willing to make up for Yizhou's loss!"
Liu Xian is so enlightened, it will be easy to talk about it later. Xun You waved back, and the soldiers pushed Zhang Yun and Cai Zhong down.
"Liu Biejia, our army lost a lot in this battle. Just mobilizing more than 100,000 soldiers and horses! We captured more than 10,000 Jingzhou troops and dozens of generals, including Cai Mao, Kuai Yue and other Jingzhou celebrities!"
"Prefect Xun, I, Jingzhou, are willing to pay any price in exchange for Cai Mao, Kuai Yue and others, as well as the tens of thousands of captured Jingzhou soldiers!"
The relationship between these people is too complicated, especially Cai Mao and Kuai Yue! Kuai Liang has given him a death order, no matter what the price is, he must exchange these two people back.
Xun You showed a slight smile. With Liu Xian's attitude, he can't be blamed for opening his mouth like a lion.
"How about this, Jingzhou will compensate us with five million stones of food and grass, one hundred million yuan in money, five hundred of the most advanced warships in Jingzhou, and one thousand shipbuilders."
"If Liu Jingzhou is willing to show such sincerity, my lord will surely be able to appease the monstrous anger. In the future, he can also form an alliance with Jingzhou to jointly plan the great cause of revitalizing the Han Dynasty!"
Liu Xian's eyes showed horror. He was ready to be blackmailed by Xun You, but he never expected that the other party would be so dark!
"Prefect Xun, even if the entire Jingzhou is emptied, these supplies will not be available!"
Xun You spread his hands, with a helpless smile on his face.
"Then there is nothing I can do to help..."
