Chapter 172 : Chapter 85: The second half of the plan (2)
Send troops out of Wancheng to threaten the south of Xudu. At that time, the general guarding Xudu will definitely send troops to support Wancheng. Liu Feng can take advantage of the situation to raise troops and divide his troops to go straight to Xudu.
Liu Feng recruited 5,000 elite soldiers in Jingzhou, plus Dong Cheng's 5,000 elite soldiers, which is already a considerable force. It is not impossible to conquer Xudu.
What made Liu Feng even more confident was Xun Yu. According to Cao Cao's general pattern of sending troops, Xun Yu would definitely be left behind. This inside line could play a huge role at critical moments.
Xu Du, in theory, Liu Feng can successfully win it.[
Fu Wan also felt that what Liu Feng said was reasonable, so he nodded and said: "Yes, no matter what, Liu Biao is still a clan member of the Han Dynasty, and he does not want to see the Cao family take power. If His Highness reveals his identity again, he will receive full support."
"Gu Ke doesn't trust him, he is just using him. In troubled times, Gu is also a huge chess piece and cannot take risks." Liu Feng shook his head and said.
These words fully demonstrated the current situation of the Han Dynasty.
He cannot be trusted. There are almost no princes who can be trusted, even Liu Biao, a clan member of the Han Dynasty. Liu Feng clearly knows his own value, because he is the orthodox heir to the throne. For the princes, his political value is unlimited
.
If he took the opportunity to lead Zhao Yun to Jingzhou to recruit troops, and his identity was discovered by Liu Biao, he would definitely be exploited. Therefore, Liu Feng would want to send lobbyists to persuade Liu Biao to send troops instead of revealing his identity.
"Can't even Liu Jingzhou be trusted?" Princess Anyang was a relatively virtuous princess, and she remained silent while her husband was communicating with her nephew about national affairs.
When Liu Feng showed his distrust of Liu Biao, Princess Anyang said in surprise.
Has this world become so corrupt? Even the clan can no longer trust it?
"Yes. Liu Yu, the former shepherd of Youzhou, was trustworthy. He was loyal to the Han Dynasty and virtuous. Unfortunately, in troubled times, virtuous people die the fastest. He was given the opportunity to have strong soldiers.
The fierce general and the willful Gongsun Zan were killed." Liu Feng sneered when he heard this.
Then he added: "Others like Liu Yan, who dominated Yizhou. He set up Zhang and Lu to separate Hanzhong, cut off contact with the imperial court, built Luanjia in the state to the standards of the emperor, etc. They were very ambitious. Liu Biao was only determined to defend his territory in Jingzhou, and
It's not to help the Han Dynasty. If he had the intention, I'm afraid he would have contacted the princes and attacked Cao Cao."
In this world, the most trustworthy thing is not rhetoric, but facts. Liu Feng gave examples of the three clans that the Han Dynasty relied on at the beginning.
Now the loyal ones have died. The ambitious ones like Liu Yan are still alive. The Liu Biao who has no ambitions and just wants to protect himself. He is a member of the Han clan and is no different from outsiders.
"Hey." Princess Anyang, her own surname was Liu. At this time, she wished she could show her loyalty to those surnamed Liu, but in the end she didn't find anyone she could use or rely on, so she finally sighed.
tone.
In troubled times, people's hearts are evil. The only people who can really rely on are Liu Feng's own parents and people like them. The rest are all rebellious officials and traitors.
No wonder Liu Feng had to take risks to collect and transport money himself.
Really no one else. There is no one else.
Not only Princess Anyang, but also Fu Wan, Fu Dian and others, the Fu clan finally realized the reality. They were very, very weak.
And there is no foreign aid.
Not only is there no foreign aid, but there is also a hot potato sitting under the butt of Emperor Liu Xie, who is orthodox in the world.[
The emperor's throne.
"Okay, this gold must be secretly arranged to go outside the city, otherwise we will be doomed." Finally, Liu Feng solemnly warned Fu.
"promise."
Fu Wan straightened his face and promised.
This is probably what the so-called monarchs and ministers are like. Although Fu Wan is indeed Liu Feng's grandfather, Liu Feng has already convinced this grandfather with his own ability.
From now on, he is not only a nephew or grandpa, but also a monarch and his ministers.
