Unparalleled Huaxiong of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 421 Tri-State Alliance
After hearing the conditions proposed by Liu Yao's envoy, Liu Biao fell into deep thought.

"Well, I see."

After a long time, Liu Yao said to the waiter: "Go back to the post house to rest first, and I will give you an answer later." "

After Liu Yao's envoy left, Liu Biao ordered someone to call Cai Mao, Zhang Yun, Kuai Liang, and Kuai Yue to him, and told them Liu Yao's conditions. As a result, the four of them all agreed that they would not help Liu Yao.

If the opinions of the four people were so unanimous in the past, Liu Biao would definitely have made a decision, but this time Liu Biao hesitated. Instead, he told the four people Liu Yan's proposal of the three-state alliance and the establishment of another emperor.

Kuai Liang and Kuai Yue lowered their heads, their eyes kept rolling, as did Cai Mao and Zhang Yun. They didn't understand what Liu Biao meant by saying this.

After a while, Kuai Liang tentatively asked: "My lord, do you have an idea about the position of the Son of Heaven?"

Liu Biao sat on the couch without moving his eyelids, and did not answer Kuai Liang.

Seeing Liu Biao's reaction, the two brothers Kuai Liang and Kuai Yue probably understood.

Cai Mao and Zhang Yun trembled slightly, and they both looked at Liu Biao in disbelief.

Although Liu Biao is jokingly called the guardian dog by the people all over the world, there is a trace of joking in it, but in fact, it also reflects Liu Biao's usual temper, which is more than conservative and not aggressive. They absolutely can't believe that Liu Biao will take the initiative to overstep Emperor.

Liu Biao asked the four of them, "If I become emperor, what will happen?"

Cai Mao and Zhang Yu lowered their heads and did not dare to speak. Kuai Liang said, "I'm afraid a disaster is coming for me in Jingzhou."

Liu Biao frowned and asked, "Why?"

Kuai Liang bowed and said, "My lord, that great general Hua Xiong may not allow the world to have a second emperor."

Liu Biao asked back: "So what if he can't tolerate it? Jingzhou has the Yangtze River's natural danger, guarding the Yangtze River, so he can't cross it. Could it be that Hua Xiong can fly over from the sky?"

Kuai Yue stepped forward at this time and said, "My lord, it is not good for Jingzhou to be called emperor at this time."

"Why is there no benefit? The three prefectures united to establish another emperor to establish a new country. Within three to five years, the people of the three prefectures will be united. At that time, even if we were not righteous before, we will become righteous at that time. Five years, at that time our new emperor will be the rightful emperor."

Obviously, the rhetoric of Liu Yan's subordinate Zhao Wei played a role in Liu Biao's case.

At this time, Cai Hao rolled his eyes and stepped forward and said: "My lord is originally a clan member of the Han family. Now that the imperial court has collapsed, my lord has the ambition to face the south and be lonely. I will feel that there is nothing wrong with it. I will definitely do my best to support my lord." Enthroned!"

Liu Biao nodded and said with great satisfaction, "Okay!"

Afterwards, he turned his head to look at Kuai Liang and Kuai Yue. The two brothers of the Kuai family looked at each other, and then Kuai Liang cupped his hands and said, "My lord, I still don't recommend that my lord become emperor. If my lord insists on doing it Please make preparations in advance for this matter of proclaiming the emperor, recruiting more soldiers, storing more money and food, repairing warships, and building fortifications, once the lord announces to the world that he is going to ascend the throne, a big war will be inevitable."

Cai Mao immediately retorted: "Zi Rou, are you over-concerned? Then Hua Xiong won the territory of the four states first, so how could he start fighting again?"

Kuai Liang said: "I don't know whether we are too worried, but I just hope that the Lord can prepare for the worst."

Finally Liu Biao nodded and said: "Okay, let's do it according to everyone's wishes. Write to Liu Yan and leave a message to tell Liu Yan. I also agree with his proposal. At the same time, tell Liu Yao to reveal my meaning secretly and let him understand. If you support my enthronement, I will send someone to help him."

"People in the world ridicule me, Liu Biao, as just a household dog, so I will let the world see, a household dog? Hmph"

So, half a month later, the news that the Three-State Alliance was going to establish another emperor quickly spread throughout the world, and the candidate was Liu Biao.

After Hua Xiong, who was far away in Yecheng, got the news, he was not as furious as everyone expected. He asked the crowd: "What happened to Liu Jingsheng? A guardian dog dared to ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor." ?”

Li Ru stepped forward and said, "My lord, this matter cannot wait any longer. We must attack Liu Biao with thunder."

But Ju Shou was full of sorrow: "My lord, Jingzhou relies on the natural danger of the Yangtze River, and the power of thunder is easier said than done?"

At this moment, Hua Xiong was silent for a while. After a long time, he raised his head and asked Li Ru, "How is Meng De doing recently? What's going on in Hanzhong?"

Li Ru: "Recently Meng De recruited [-] new troops and said that he will launch an offensive against Hanzhong in three months."

Hua Xiong nodded: "Well, tell Meng De first, don't rush into Sichuan after taking Hanzhong, I will write down the names of a few people, let him contact these people, don't begrudge money."

Li Ru nodded and said "yes".

Summer mouth
Nearly two months have passed. During this period of time, under Yuan Shu's heavy reward, there has been a wave of shipbuilding fever in several places in Yangzhou and Jiangbei. At this time, Yuan Shu already has dozens of large ferries in his hands. It's a pity that there are still too few craftsmen who can make early warships and warships.

Li Bao also recruited nearly [-] sailors nearby, and with Yuan Shu's [-] soldiers who grew up in the Huainan area, the [-] sailors had already begun to grow.

One morning on this day, Yuan Shu waved his hand and led Di Qing and Luo Cheng's troops, escorted by 5 sailors and [-] horses, to cross the river.

At this time, in Caisang in the south of the Yangtze River, Liu Bei and Sun Ce were having a banquet together.

At the banquet, Sun Ce saw that Liu Bei's eyebrows were clouded, so he asked, "Why is Mr. Xuande so sad?" Liu Bei said to him, "I'm a little worried about my second brother. I don't know how he is doing recently."

"Xuzhou has fallen into the hands of Hua Xiong, Sun Ce might as well write a letter to Guan Yunchang, calling him to come and meet you."

Liu Bei nodded and said, "I've written the letter long ago, but in such a chaotic time, whether the letter can be delivered or not is another matter."

At this moment, someone reported the news of Yuan Shu crossing the river to Sun Ce, and Sun Ce immediately sneered and said:

"Yuan Gonggong, when he was in Huainan, he was so powerful that I couldn't help him. Now in Jiangnan, my grandson Bo Fu regards him as nothing more than a chicken and a dog!"

After finishing speaking, Sun Ce ordered troops to fight immediately.

As soon as Sun Ce left the house, he met Zhou Yu who was coming towards him. Zhou Yu asked Sun Ce, "What is Bo Fu going to do?"

Sun Ce said: "Then Yuan Gonglu came across the river, I will send him to the river to feed the fish!"

Zhou Yu lowered his hand and said to Sun Ce: "Bo Fu, I suggest you let Yuan Gonglu go ashore, or even go to Chaisang City."

Sun Ce frowned and said, "Gong Jin, do you want to capture Yuan Shu's soldiers as much as possible?"

Zhou Yu nodded and said, "Yes, Bo Fu, there is very bad news from Liu Yao."
