Liu Cong arrived in Xiangyang yesterday.

When Liu Qi saw Liu Cong sitting beside him, he smiled slightly and said, "What? You can't drink anymore?"

Liu Cong nodded respectfully and said, "Yes, my brother is not good at drinking."

Liu Qi reached out and patted the seat beside him, and said, "Sit down and chat."

Liu Cong nodded and then sat next to Liu Qi.

"How are you staying in Jiangguan? Are you still used to it?"

Liu Cong nodded seriously and said, "With the help of his brother's help, and three thousand soldiers guarding the pass, it is enough to defend. Baidi City and Zigui are also continuously transporting food and grass supplies to Jiangguan, which is enough to defend the enemy in Ba County. Unless Liu Yan takes large-scale military action, Jiangguan will be as solid as a god."

Liu Qi nodded after hearing this and said, "It's been about half a year since you were alone in Jiangguan?"

Liu Cong nodded and said, "Yes."

“How does it feel?”

Liu Cong pondered for a while, and then he sincerely said three words: "It's too difficult."

This is what he said in his heart.

Judging from Liu Cong's historical performance, we can probably guess that his military and political abilities are relatively mediocre... Even though Liu Cong is quite ambitious at the moment, his talent limits his performance. Some things cannot be compensated by hard work and motivation alone, which is helpless.

But Liu Qi did not hurt his ambition, but just smiled and said, "Take it slow, it will take a long time, but I won't know, so I can ask the soldiers for advice."

Liu Cong was silent for a while and suddenly said, "Brother, I came back yesterday and told my father that I would resign as the governor of Jiangguan and hand over the military power to others. I will return to Jingzhou and do something I can do."

Liu Qi looked at Liu Cong in surprise and said strangely: "My father asked me to take you and Brother Xiu out of Xiangyang to the army to experience training in order to make you the only one side. Now you have not fought a battle to guard Jiangguan and take the initiative to withdraw. Isn't it a bit too hasty? My father promised you?"

Liu Cong sighed and said, "Brother, to be honest, I thought I could do it myself, but at Jiangguan, there were 3,000 people who were still convinced by me. Sima and Junhou of other departments can find out my shortcomings and problems every day. Basically, the opinions I put forward will be refuted by others with reasons... and I am convinced by the rebuttal... Brother, can you still take this soldier?"

Liu Qi laughed "puchi" and shook his head helplessly.

Liu Cong, this kid, has too low pressure resistance.

"Okay, if you don't want to lead the troops, don't lead the troops. Let's go back and help Yan Jun in Jingzhou together."

"Assisting Yan Jun together?" Liu Cong looked at Liu Qi with confusion and said, "Brother fought outside the Long March and was not in Jingzhou for many years. How can we assist Yan Jun together?"

Liu Qi smiled and patted his shoulder, saying, "It's a coincidence that I've handed over the military power this time, so I won't need to lead troops in the future."

"What?" Liu Cong was shocked when he heard this.

He stood up from the spot and looked at Liu Qi sitting on the steps in surprise, with his expression extremely distorted: "Brother, you have handed over military power! Our Shanyang Liu family relies on our brother to lead the troops. If you don't lead the troops, who else can lead the troops in our clan? Where should the military in Jingzhou go in the future? If you are eroded by the other tribes, wouldn't it be dangerous? Isn't this a nonsense!"

Liu Cong's performance surprised Liu Qi, and he said something subconsciously, clearly without any preparation in advance, but just subconsciously spoke it, which shows that this is his true words.

To be honest, Liu Qi and Liu Cong did not have too much intersection, because before traveling through time, Liu Qi knew that the body he possessed had been seized by Liu Cong, so many Liu Congs had some estrangement over the years, at least they were not so close.

In Liu Qi's opinion, in Liu Cong's heart, he may be the kind of existence that exists or does not exist. But today, judging from Liu Cong's performance, he seems to have been wrong.

Looking at Liu Cong with a look of indignation, Liu Qi couldn't help but wonder: "Zhong Huang, it's just that he has handed over military power, so it's not like this yet, right?"

Liu Cong said angrily: "Brother, don't say that. My father is old and his energy is getting worse every year. The one who can take charge of his three armies for his father is the elder brother! I have led thousands of soldiers and I know that no one can resist the 100,000 soldiers in Jingzhou, only the elder brother has the ability and ability."

Liu Qi laughed silently and said, "Do I have such great ability?"

Liu Cong said solemnly: "If my brother had not been in charge, I would have probably been taken over by the Cai and Kuai family. How could the situation where my Shanyang Liu family is now a family in Jingzhou?"

"Shh..." Liu Qi stretched out a finger and gently pressed it on his lips: "Don't speak out about this matter loudly."

Liu Cong pressed the excitement in his heart and squatted beside Liu Qi: "Brother, what's going on?"

Liu Qi looked at him seriously, and finally smiled, and then told Liu Cong about the matter.

Liu Cong looked gloomy, clenched his fists tightly, and gritted his teeth and said, "Which thieves are they who are actually slandering their elder brother like this behind their backs and in front of their father? The elder brother has never known them!"

Liu Qi smiled and said, "Everyone has ambition, and they want to show their due value in me, so I can understand this, but I can't forgive it."

Liu Cong said: "Brother, do you know who these people are?"

Liu Qi smiled and said, "Don't worry, you know that after a few days, when the sects of the Xiangyang Sutras, they will naturally be unable to hold back and jump out. Then you and I don't need to inquire. Just distinguish one by one and you will know the clues."

Liu Cong clenched his fists and nodded vigorously.

...

The next day, Liu Pan from Changsha also arrived in Xiangyang. In this way, important figures of the Liu family in Shanyang gathered together.

Liu Qi and Liu Pan have a very good relationship, so they were naturally extremely excited to meet each other.

Liu Pan patted Liu Qi's shoulder, looked him up and down, and said, "Good boy, he looks a lot stronger... It seems to be a little taller."

"Forget it." Liu Qi shook his head with a smile and said helplessly: "How old am I, can I still grow up? But you are more heroic and more like a general as you look at it... I heard that there were six internal strifes of Guiyang Man last year. My brothers joined forces with all the barbarian kings to quell it in less than a month. This ability to lead troops to fight is really getting better."

Liu Pan laughed and said, "It's all small scenes, not worth mentioning. Compared with the big things you did, Boyu, it's not worth laughing at all."

After a pause, Liu Pan said again: "Boyu, no matter what happens, Brother Hui is on your side. I have never been by your side to help you over the years. I will stand up for you no matter what I say this time, just say what to do."

It took Liu Qi very much to see him for a long time, and Liu Pan's feelings for him are still so real.

"If my brother is willing, then I really have something to trouble me... That's right, I might feel a little wronged.
