Chapter 1814 must intervene
Liu Qi's envoy came to ask for help, bringing news that Liu Biao was seriously ill. The matter was passed on to the Japanese civilization area. After Yang Rui learned about it, he attached great importance to it, so he directly "told" Suruga Country, and he himself immediately returned to the Three Kingdoms Civilization Area.
This is not that Yang Rui is irresponsible. In fact, when he decided to go directly to Ise Country and Oshino State, Yang Rui discussed with everyone two plans. One of them was to rest and recuperate in Jiapei Country and at the same time shocked the surrounding forces.
At present, Yang Rui's army has only moved from Jia Pei Kingdom to Suruga Kingdom. There is not much difference, and it just happens to be a deterrent effect, making Uesugi kid stable in the rear.
When Yang Rui returned to the Three Kingdoms Civilized Area, Cheng Yu, Guo Jia, Xun You, Sun Gan and others had already provided two alternatives for Yang Rui.
One plan is to directly intervene in military affairs, like autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves, taking advantage of the conflicts and disputes between Liu Qi and Cai Mao and other gentry to take down the entire Jingzhou in one fell swoop.
In order to be justified during this period, Yang Rui could use the name of helping his eldest son Liu Qi to capture the remaining Liu Biao forces in Jingzhou and the gentry forces.
Another solution is not to directly intervene in military affairs, but to learn Liu Bei's approach in the Romance of the Romance, secretly support his eldest son Liu Qi, and even arm his eldest son Liu Qi, so that the elders and young people would have a big fight first, and then Yang Rui would come forward to clean up the mess.
In fact, the few people had other alternatives, but they were more roundabout. They could intervene in the matter without any trace through other forces such as Sun Jian from Jiangdong, and then another fisherman would benefit.
However, the feasibility of this operation is not 100%. Cheng Yu, Guo Jia, Xun You, Sun Gan and others are not sure. After all, whether it is Sun Jian in Jiangdong or other princes, they are not a vain in the situation and war, and they will let them go, even if they pass through the name of the Han Dynasty.
Like Liu Dan from Shu, he is quite sure, but his strength is not enough to fulfill the important task of dismantling Jingzhou. Such plans are not highly praised by Cheng Yu, Guo Jia, Xun You, Sun Gan and others, or the only advantage is that they make people feel that Yang Rui is not the initiator and does not have such great ambitions.
However, in the current situation in the Three Kingdoms civilization region, everything has begun to become clear. It doesn’t matter whether Yang Rui has ambition or the initiator or the like.
After Yang Rui learned about the plans of Cheng Yu, Guo Jia, Xun You, Sun Gan and others, he knew that the intention of his subordinates was to intervene, while Yang Rui himself was more inclined to the first direct intervention plan.
Compared to the heroes like Liu Bei, Yang Rui felt that he could not pretend to be hypocritical, so it would be natural to use his unrivaled strength and directly intervene strongly.
Regarding Yang Rui's choice, Cheng Yu, Guo Jia, Xun You, Sun Gan and others also agreed, and the next step was to meet Liu Qi's envoy.
"I have already understood the meaning of the prefect. I have always heard that the prefect is famous and rare to see it. A few days ago, the prefect bravely seized two cities in Sun Jian, Jiangdong, and defeated countless naval armies. I have been interested in it for a long time.
With my long-cherished wish, I naturally have to give the prefect a little help. However, the dispute between the prefect and the Jingzhou family is a housework. It is inevitable that I will misunderstand if I participate too much. I wonder what the prefect wants me to do?"
When Yang Rui saw the envoy sent by Liu Qi, he naturally could not agree to send troops or intervene too simply. He should first listen to the opinions of the other envoy. This is also a necessary process for negotiation.
If you agree to this and that as soon as you come, it will not only make the other party feel superficial and doubt the sincerity of participation, but also make people wonder if there is a special purpose.
The prefect Yang Rui mentioned naturally refers to the prefect Liu Qi, the prefect of Jiangxia. Because the two had never had any contact or met each other, Yang Rui just called him an official position.
"Thank you for your sincerity in the East Sea. I dare not end the King of East Sea. The prefect is the lord of Jingzhou. For this reason, the prefect can send Nanyang to the King of East Sea as a thank you, and promise to work with the King of East Sea to take the land of Yuzhou in the future.
In a nutshell, Jiangyou is all under the jurisdiction of the King of Donghai. The prefect will never have any thoughts of being involved and will cooperate with all the actions of the King of Donghai.
Furthermore, the prefect is willing to form an offensive and defensive alliance with the King of East China. If the land in Jiangdong can be obtained, the prefect will only take the lost land in Jiangzuo, and the rest will belong to the King of East China.”
The messengers were generally thin-mouthed. Yang Rui spoke in a word and reported his master's conditions in a constant way, and the rendering was vivid, as if he had given Yang Rui a cake.
Yang Rui has not dealt with such occasions once or twice, and soon summed up what Liu Qi promised, which is nothing more than three major contents.
First of all, Liu Qi promised to give Yang Rui the land of Nanyang as a reward, which is Liu Qi's greatest sincerity, at least compared to the other two promises.
Due to various reasons, the land of Nanyang is still controlled by Liu Biao in Jingzhou, most of which are under the radiation of Yang Rui's power, but it is nominally the land of Liu Biao.
When Liu Qi wanted to send it out, he actually gave up a piece of the tasteless food and a pity to abandon it. Half of this piece of meat had already entered Yang Rui's mouth.
Secondly, Liu Qi promised not to interfere in Yuzhou affairs and hand over all the control of Yuzhou in the future to Yang Rui.
In fact, the other party did not give anything in this regard. Perhaps it was because of different positions. Liu Biao from Jingzhou sent troops to Yuzhou several times, but had he ever gained some advantage? Do you think Jingzhou has any say in Yuzhou?
As for cooperating with Yang Rui to clean up the mess in Yuzhou, it may be of some use, but whether to cooperate or not is of little significance to Yang Rui. If he wants to clean up Yuzhou, no one will be able to get it out at this moment, or he has the courage to participate.
There is no need to talk about Jingzhou anymore. Sun Jian from Jiangdong has just recently lost to Jingzhou. Whether it is for strength or positional considerations, he may not easily get involved in the land of Yuzhou.
Last point, Liu Qi talked about the issue of sharing the territory of Sun Jian in Jiangdong.
Not to mention whether the distribution plan of Jiangdong is reasonable, this one is like drawing a big pie, saying beautiful words, expressing attitude, and provoking trouble by the way?
Yang Rui has not prepared to attack Jiangdong recently. With the strength of Jingzhou, it is naturally impossible to defeat Jiangdong Sun Jian, so this one can be regarded as nothing.
In fact, with Yang Rui's cautious personality, by the time he attacked Jiangdong, the Liu Biao forces in Jingzhou or the entire Liu family forces in Jingzhou should no longer exist, so how can we talk about cooperation?
