Whoever wins the crouching dragon wins the world

Shengyang Village, named after my title, became Kong Ming's ally to assist Liu Xi to achieve grandiose hegemony.

I didn't take the initiative to ask about the origin of the name of the cottage. I have experienced too many times of self-indulgence, and I no longer have the strength to make unnecessary reveries.Kong Ming, on the other hand, didn't seem to care, and talked with me in a calm and generous manner, never touching this sensitive topic.

When it comes to pretending to be ignorant while pretending to be ignorant, no one in the world can compare to Zhuge Kongming.

Fortunately, I have also passed the stage of being sad and happy because of his likes and dislikes. If you are ruthless, I will rest. When I really let go, my heart is at peace.

Because the shopkeeper's wife was still waiting for my reply at the foot of the mountain, I only sat in the stronghold for a little while, then hurried back to the city, and fed the reassurance pill that Cui Zhouping personally concocted into the shopkeeper's lady.

"Mr. Zhou Ping really agreed to go up the mountain to search for people?" After hearing my reply, the shopkeeper's wife was ecstatic and burst into tears on the spot, "This is great, Ajie's father is saved, Mr. Zhou Ping is really a good man!"

There are many capable people in this world, mediocrity like me, like the shopkeeper's lady, if there is no guidance from someone with a heart, the only way to go is to be sold and help count the money.The bandits in the northern part of the city are famous for their viciousness. The shopkeeper's wife thought that even if her husband survived by chance, he would suffer a lot, but she didn't know that he and He Dacheng were already heading north immediately, and were packed by Kong Ming and sent to Yan County, thousands of miles away, to be transferred/educated to help the lonely army Yiji, who was fighting hard, gave a helping hand.

Cui Zhouping explained: "There is a hermit in the south of the city named Hu Zhao. He is not well-known, but somehow he was favored by King Ping'an. A month ago, His Highness personally wrote Kongming, saying, 'Hu Zhao's character is the same as yours. The same character is fate. And ask for it.' Kong Ming invited him to be an official, but he was followed by He Dacheng halfway. At that time, Kong Ming was "buried in the fire" and he was already buried. Fearing that He Dacheng and He Dacheng would leak the news, he had no choice but to take him up the mountain , just to be safe.”

To say that He Dacheng is also a strange flower, although he looks big and thick, but his mind is quite delicate and sensitive.That day, he and the shopkeeper happened to be delivering wine to Hu's family, and because they were top-notch traffickers, they never had the chance to meet Hu Zhao, but he insisted on judging who was talking based on the sporadic chatter and jokes passed down to the wine cellar. It's Kong Ming.In Shi Guangyuan's words, "the ear is smarter than a dog."

Curiosity killed the cat, He Dacheng was not wronged at all when he was tied up the mountain, but the poor shopkeeper who was traveling with him suffered disaster for no reason.

At that time, Nanyang City seemed to be calm and calm, but the inner tide was already surging.

The mourning hall in Zhuge's house had already been set up. Although Cai Mao knew that the one lying in the coffin was not Kong Ming, he didn't dare to come forward to recognize the dead men he sent, so he simply made the mistake and let them be buried under the murderer's name.But of course Cai Mao will not let it go, and the private search has never stopped.According to his speculation, Kong Ming Jinchan would [-]% bring Liu Biao's letter to the north to rectify Liu Qi's name.Therefore, he sent people to lay a net on the only way to Xudu, just waiting for Kong Ming, a rabbit, to hit a wooden stake and die.

It's a pity that he never expected that there would be a more powerful Liu Xi standing behind Kong Ming.

From the very beginning, the dispute between Qi and Cong was not a simple family struggle.Liu Qi is kind and loyal, Liu Cong is naive and dull, neither of them has the ability to develop and maintain success.Cao Cao once commented: "Having a son should be like Sun Zhongmou, and Liu Jingsheng's (namely Liu Biao) son is like a puppet dog." Cai Mao supported Liu Cong not because he was impressed by his power and ability, but because of the dream of an uncle who wanted to support a puppet Cover the sky with one hand.Similarly, Kong Ming and Yiji helped Liu Qi not out of any noble and just considerations, but to buy more time for Liu Xi's development.

In the real history, Liu Qi had no soldiers and no talents, and was helpless in the face of Liu Cong's lineage's pressing every step of the way. He didn't even have the power to fight back, so he gave up his heir position lightly.But in this life, just because of Liu Xi's words "Cai Mao kisses Cao, if Liu Cong wins Jingzhou, Cao Cao may be cheaper." Kong Ming and a group of Jingxiang celebrities drove Liu Qi, a duck, to the shelf of armed resistance to Liu Cong. It is not sinister.

But since he was born in troubled times and was fortunate to be the son of a state shepherd, being mediocre would be his biggest mistake.

Liu Qi's character is not bad, but his IQ is not at the same level as Kong Ming's professional scammers who have been famous through the ages, so he can only lie down and let others slaughter him.According to Meng Gongwei's description, he who was stationed in Jiangxia was already the Lord of Jingzhou in name, but he didn't believe in his own ability. Instead, he completely listened to Liu Xi's "confidant" ministers who were placed beside him. The Three Kingdoms version of "Weasel Gives Chicken New Year's Greetings" was staged, making relatives and enemies happy.

Of course, for Liu Xi, the enemy's incompetence is a gift from heaven, an opportunity that cannot be sought.

Perhaps, the same is true for the common people.

On the third day of June, taking advantage of the fact that Cao Cao was beating Ma Teng and his son Ma Chao to the west, Liu Xi suddenly dispatched troops and opened up the Baili dungeon centered on Xinye with lightning speed, directly upgrading the small county of Xinye to a county. into the arms.Liu Cong and Liu Biao looked at each other angrily, but never said a word, they kept their heads shrunk and did not dare to move lightly.

Shi Guangyuan, who was released by his mother the day before the army swept Nanyang, said modestly: "We have occupied such a large piece of land without any effort, and there is little resistance. Liu Biao's two sons are so big~fang~ "A look that can't wait to give the Liu brothers 120 likes.

Not only him, but also the surrounding people secretly rejoiced.

When the two armies are at war, if the two sides are evenly matched, they will inevitably fall into a stalemate. A battle that lasts for three to five years is considered small.During the war, the consumption is huge, and the war continues, so the supplies and military supplies in the rear cannot be cut off.However, no matter how rich a town is, it cannot withstand repeated looting and crushing by the army.Especially for the people in the war zone, they may have just paid tribute to the army defending the city yesterday, and the city will be breached tomorrow.The people dared not speak out, and under pressure, they could only sell pots and sell iron to make up the tax burden. But when they really tightened their belts and paid off the food owed, when they looked back, they found that the soldiers guarding the city had changed again. The army that was beaten away before actually fought back!The new city owner raised new recruits and raised taxes again on the grounds that the front line supply was tight. The reason was very high-sounding-the people of the whole city should work together to defend their homeland.

The people have a hard time saying: the wolf in the front and the tiger in the back, whether they can defend their homes, the difference is only in whether they are eaten by the wolves in the city or swallowed by the tigers outside the city.If Qi and Cong hadn't been fighting at the front, Cai Mao had foolishly spared time to garrison troops in Nanyang and other places, making Liu Xi feel as if he had entered a land of no one. How many innocent civilians would suffer under the attack and defense of both sides.

What is even more gratifying is that three days later, Liu Xi issued an Anmin Announcement, stating that "the people will not be taken for a needle or thread, and they will not be taken for a meal."

The people celebrated with their foreheads and hands.

The flag of the Liu surname was hoisted in Nanyang City, and the flowers were just falling, and a thousand wastes were waiting for prosperity.
