Rebirth of the Southern Barbarian Meng Huo

Meng Huo could not come out of seclusion, so he gave Cao Cao time to build the Bronze Bird Tower.And Cao Cao did not attack far away, which gave Sun Quan a chance.Sun Quan took control of Yang and Jingzhou, and separated all of Yangzhou and only a little bit of Jingzhou. Most of Jingzhou was still in the hands of Liu Biao. After all, Liu Biao was the shepherd of Jingzhou and the real power in Jingzhou.

Jiangdong and Jingzhou have always been hostile. Even Sun Jian, the Tiger of Jiangdong, Sun Quan's father, died indirectly in the battle with Jingzhou. Although Sun Jian died at the hands of Huang Zu, Huang Zu was also the guard general of Jingzhou and served under Liu Biao.After Sun Quan came to power, he couldn't think about revenge for a day. After he unified Yangzhou, Sun Quan thought he had strong strength and could defeat Liu Biao, so he mobilized the power of Jiangdong to attack Jingzhou. Killing Huang Zu was a small thing, but planning Jingzhou was a big one. .

Sun Quan had a good time to choose the technique. With Zhou Yu as the Grand Governor, it was no problem to defeat Huang Zu. The battle lasted only ten days, and even Huang Zu's subordinate Gan Ning was lost to Zhou Yu, and Huang Zu was beheaded.

While Huang Zu and Zhou Yu were fighting, Liu Bei, who was stationed in Xinye, had already taken the most critical step in his great career - visiting the thatched cottage three times.

When the first snow fell in winter, Liu Bei couldn't wait to come to Xu Shu to ask for advice.

As a counselor, I never want anyone to be different from me, even Xu Shu is no exception.He also wanted to find a way to help Liu Bei get Jingzhou, but he couldn't think of a good countermeasure for several months, so Xu Shu could only dump Zhuge Liang.

"Your Majesty, there is a farmer in Longzhong. His surname is Zhuge, his given name is Liang, his courtesy name is Kongming, and his nickname is Wolong." Xu Shu said, and then he said no more.

Liu Bei was surprised again and again. He had heard of Wolong for a long time.I don't want to know where it is today, how can I not be happy.

After hearing where Kong Ming was, Liu Bei did not hesitate and headed for Longzhong despite the first snowfall of winter.

"Kong Ming is here. I have nothing to do here anymore, so why not just go back and visit my mother." Seeing Liu Bei leave without saying anything else, Xu Shu immediately understood the problem and immediately set off to go home. He went there to take refuge. Today, the past has long been forgotten, but it is also time to return home.

Liu Bei went to Longzhong to invite Zhuge Liang to come out.You can't see it the first time, and you can't see it the second time.But Liu Bei didn't give up because of this. Xu Shu has passed away, and there are really not many capable people who can advise him.If you don't sleep with the dragon, you may be afraid that great things will be difficult to achieve.

The first two times Liu Bei came to ask for an audience, in fact, Zhuge Liang had heard about it a long time ago, and he had not revealed his true form. He had always been in the Longzhong hut. He did not want to test Liu Bei's patience.But there is really no way to escape.

He has the magical power of praying to the sky to increase longevity, so he has the means to reduce people's longevity.

If you want to help Liu Bei achieve great things, you must get Jingzhou, but the leader of Jingzhou is Liu Biao.And Liu Biao was a clan member of the Han Dynasty, so it was like taking away Liu Biao's inheritance.He will definitely do his duty for the world and will never lose the name of benevolence.

But Zhuge Liang wanted to be a benevolent king and a virtuous prime minister.Such things that harm the name of benevolence will never be done.

Therefore, he could only shorten someone's life without anyone knowing about it, and the person whose life was shortened was none other than Liu Biao and Liu Jingsheng.

And this technique of shortening one's lifespan must last for ninety-nine and eighty-one days.

In the secret room under the hut, an altar was set up, and a tablet was set up with Liu Biao's name and calligraphy, as well as Liu Biao's birth date and horoscope.

When everything was ready, Zhuge Kongming said: "From now on, I will kill only one person. From now on, I will not kill anyone again!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhuge Liang began to cast a spell. A stream of black air flew out of Zhuge Kongming's hand and landed on the tablet. A faint bit of blood slowly flew out from the tablet and fell into Zhuge Liang's body.Meng Huo would definitely be shocked if he saw this, but the bloody air flow was something Meng Huo was familiar with.

Just when Zhuge Liang was casting the spell, Liu Biao, who was far away in Jingzhou and planned to send troops to rescue Huang Zu, unexpectedly fell ill. Even though Liu Biao's cultivation was average, there was no such thing as illness. Now that he was ill, he immediately stopped his trip.

It was precisely because of this that Liu Biao missed the opportunity to save Huang Zu, and his illness became more and more serious day by day, and his cultivation level declined even more.

After 81 days, Liu Biao became seriously ill.

At the beginning of spring, Liu Bei came to Longzhong again and finally met Zhuge Kongming.

After a conversation, Liu Bei was overjoyed when he saw that Kong Mingguo was the most talented person in the world.I want to invite Zhuge Kongming to come out.

I saw Liu Bei sobbing and saying: "Sir, if you don't come out, what will happen to the common people." After saying this, he couldn't cry and his clothes were wet with tears.

Zhuge Kongming then agreed: "My lord, I won't give up on you, but I am willing to do the hard work of dogs and horses."

Liu Bei was so happy that he finally invited Zhuge Kongming to come out and worship him as his military advisor.

Just after returning to Xinye, Liu Bei said to Zhuge Kongming: "I heard what the military advisor said, and I agree with it. But Liu Biao and Liu Zhang are both members of the Han clan, how can I bear to seize them?"

Zhuge Kongming said: "Looking at the sky at night, Liu Biao will be alive soon. Liu Zhang is not the master of the establishment, and he will return to his lord in the long run."

"In the near future, Liu Biao will invite the lord to Jingzhou to discuss matters, and we will arrive in Jiangdong together. The lord must not respond. As long as Liu Biao dies and the lord takes Jingzhou, the world will not say that the lord is unkind, but will say that the lord has many righteousness." Zhuge Kongming said again.

Liu Bei thought so and just waited for a letter from Jingzhou.

As Zhuge Kongming said, Liu Biao came to invite him in less than three days.Liu Bei, Zhang Fei, and Zhuge Kongming came to Jingzhou.

Just after arriving in Jingzhou, Liu Qi, the eldest son of Liu Biao, came to see Liu Bei.Liu Qi thought that his uncle was a benevolent person. When he saw Liu Bei, he cried: "My stepmother is incompatible with her. Her life is at stake. I hope my uncle will take pity on her and save her."

Liu Bei wanted to refuse. This was originally Liu Biao's family matter, but now that Liu Biao was still alive, it was not easy for him to interfere.

"cough cough"

But when he heard Zhuge Kongming coughing softly behind him, Liu Bei knew that Zhuge Liang had a plan, so he said to Liu Qi: "I'm afraid the walls have ears. I will send Kongming back to pay homage to my nephew later, and I will make it my nephew's plan."

Liu Qi thanked him and left.

After Liu Qi left, Liu Bei turned to Zhuge Kongming.

Zhuge Kongming explained: "Now Liu Biao is seriously ill. If he dies, the successor will be the young master Liu Qi. Even if the Cai family cannot accommodate Qi, Qi will definitely take the throne. But once the young master Qi is not in Jingzhou, if Liu Biao dies, the Cai family will definitely have something. If he takes action, Qi will definitely not be able to ascend the throne. This will give my lord an opportunity to take advantage of him."

"Alas, such dishonest means are really not what a man would do!" Liu Bei sighed, but he was a little reluctant.

"My lord has sent me. If I win Jingzhou in this way, there will be no casualties. If my lord wins Jingzhou, it will be a blessing to Jingzhou and to the common people." Zhuge Kongming said.

Liu Bei remained silent.

That night, Zhuge Kongming went to Liu Qi's residence and stated the pros and cons. His plan was to have Liu Qi leave Jingzhou and go to Jiangxia. He said it was to avoid disaster.

It's pitiful that Liu Qi was scheming but didn't know it. He was so grateful to Zhuge Kongming that he actually went to Jiangxia.

I have to say that Zhuge Kongming really had no plans left. Even Liu Biao agreed to Liu Qi's request to go out. After all, Huang Zu was dead and Jiangxia needed someone to protect him.

Liu Biao didn't think he would really die, but Liu Qi just left. His illness became worse and he couldn't get out of bed.

Liu Biao finally felt something was wrong, but it was too late. Zhuge Kongming's spell had been completed. He could not break it at all and would die soon.

Knowing that he was dead, Liu Biao began to worry about Jingzhou, and the person who threatened him the most in Jingzhou was not Cao Cao, Meng Huo, or Jiangdong.In Liu Biao's view, the person who poses the greatest threat to Jingzhou is Liu Bei.

Therefore, Liu Biao immediately invited Liu Bei. If Liu Bei really had different intentions, he would fight to the death. Although he might not be able to defeat Liu Bei, it would ruin Liu Bei's reputation and Jingzhou would not fall into Liu Bei's hands.

How could Liu Bei, who had been entrusted by Kong Ming long ago, say the wrong thing or be plotted by Liu Biao.

Therefore, in front of his subordinate Wen Wu, Liu Biao said: "I am old and sick this year and cannot manage. My dear brother can come and help me. After my death, my brother will be the lord of Jingzhou."

Liu Bei hurriedly said: "Brother, why do you say this! How dare you take on such an important task?"

"It's worthy!" Liu Biao said seriously, as if he really wanted to hand over Jingzhou to Liu Bei.

Liu Bei said repeatedly: "Brother, please don't say too much. I think among the three brothers, Gongzi Qi is the most benevolent. My brother can take on a big job in the future. If Bei is not talented, I am willing to help Gongzi Qi."

Liu Biao was overjoyed when he heard this.When the two spoke, both civil and military officials were here, and it would definitely spread. If Liu Bei dared to violate it, he would be despised by the world, and Liu Bei, who always cherished his reputation, would never do anything to usurp the throne.

In this way, Liu Biao released Liu Bei and returned to Xinye.

However, Liu Bei did not leave very far. Instead of leaving, he transferred all the troops from Xinye to the vicinity of Jingzhou. The three generals Guan, Zhang, and Zhao had also arrived, waiting to enter Jingzhou city.

Thinking that Liu Bei had left, Liu Biao immediately felt at ease and made a will: Prince Qi ascended the throne, and Xuande assisted him.

After the will was announced to the world, Liu Biao could no longer hold his last breath and finally died at the end of his life.

After hearing Liu Biao's last words, Liu Qi felt something was wrong and immediately returned to Jingzhou from Jiangxia. However, he was not allowed to enter Jingzhou City. Mrs. Cai had already planned with Cai Mao and Zhang Yun to force Liu Qi back to Jiangxia.

Liu Qi could only cry and leave, but Liu Qi was cowardly and completely gave up on succeeding.

In this way, Mrs. Cai appointed her son Liu Cong as the shepherd of Jingzhou.Liu Cong was only sixteen years old at that time. Although he was married to Mrs. Cai, he did not aspire to be an official, and his heart was towards his brother Liu Qi.

When Cai Mao and others wanted to make him the prefectural shepherd, Liu Cong said: "My father passed away, my brother is now in Jiangxia, and my uncle Xuande is in Xinye. You make me your master. If my brother and uncle raise an army to investigate, How to explain?"

One of the officials, Wang Gui, said: "Young Master's words are very good. Now we can urgently send a funeral letter to Jiangxia and ask the eldest son to be the lord of Jingzhou. He also ordered Xuande to join the council: Cao Cao can be defeated in the north, and Sun Quan can be rejected in the south. This is a perfect strategy. "

Seeing that things were about to go bad, Cai Hao stood up and shouted: "Who are you, dare to speak nonsense and go against the lord's order!" He ordered Li Gui to be taken down and beheaded.

Li Gui cursed loudly: "You have conspired with your internal and external friends, pretending to be a will, abolishing the elders and raising the younger ones, and saw that the nine counties of Jingxiang and Xiang were handed over to the Cai family! The ghost of the old master must kill you!"

"puff!"

Cai Mao took action personally, and an arrow flew by. Li Gui's head was in a different place, and blood spattered three feet.

When Li Gui died, no one dared to say anything, so they had no choice but to follow Cai Mao's words and make Liu Cong the lord of Jingzhou.

Moreover, the Cai family immediately took over the troops in Jingzhou. It is ridiculous that the Cai family was short-sighted. They thought that by controlling the Jingzhou sergeants, they could separatize Jingzhou. They could let Liu Qi and Liu Bei go, but they did not know that the generals were changed at the last moment, and they would not be able to exert the due power of the battle formation.

Mrs. Cai and Liu Cong were determined to go to Xiangyang to garrison in person to prevent Liu Qi and Liu Bei.

Just after leaving Jingzhou, an army came to kill him.
