"Commander Kuai, after my lord received the news, he immediately sent me to deliver the message! Chief Kuai Liang also asked me to deliver a message to the military advisor. It has been at least more than a month since Zhang Yun's defeat. Liu Zhang had already made arrangements in Hanzhong. I guess Ma Teng
, Han Sui will not make any progress!"
"If Commander Kuai has no strategy to defeat the enemy in the near future, it is better to retreat as soon as possible to avoid catastrophe!"
After hearing what his brother had said to him, Kuai Yue seemed to have exhausted all his strength and sat down in despair.
Kuai Liang is the elder brother of Kuai Yue and the contemporary head of the Kuai family. He is also known as the wisest man in Jingzhou.
The Kuai family's current status is inseparable from Kuai Liang's intelligence. Even Kuai Yue himself was deeply influenced by Kuai Liang!
Kuai Yue had very complicated feelings towards his brother. He admired him from the bottom of his heart and was a little jealous at the same time.
In his impression, his brother always made every move. Whenever Kuai Liang made a move, he almost never failed.
Gradually, everyone in Jingzhou focused their attention on Kuai Liang, but ignored Kuai Liang, who was also extremely talented.
Naturally, Kuai Yue felt unwilling to give in. He was eager to prove himself!
However, Kuai Yue's admiration for Kuai Liang came from the bottom of his heart, which also made Kuai Yue very conflicted.
Finally, the opportunity to prove myself came.
Yuan Shao sent people to ask Liu Biao to join the alliance against Liu Zhang, and promised many benefits.
Liu Biao was very moved. After all, he and Yuan Shao were allies in name, and even had a submissive attitude.
In fact, Liu Biao has always been Yuan Shao's supporter. Whether he was fighting against Sun Jian or attacking Yuan Shu, this was all under Yuan Shao's instructions.
He has already paid so much for Yuan Shao before, and if he refuses Yuan Shao's request, it will inevitably cause a rift in the friendly relationship between him and Yuan Shao.
In addition, the conditions given by Yuan Shao were very generous, including the position of General Zhennan and a large area of land in Yizhou!
There is no room for Liu Biao not to be moved!
Unfortunately, Liu Biao did not have the final say in Jingzhou alone. If he wanted to send troops, he must have the support of at least two families among them: Cai, Kuai, Pang, and Huang.
The result was not ideal. The Huang family and the Pang family opposed it and did not agree with Liu Biao and Liu Zhang's enmity.
The reason is also very simple. Once the attack fails, Jingzhou will have Liu Zhang as its formidable enemy, and it will be difficult to have peace in the future!
The Cai family neither opposed nor supported it. Instead, they were waiting and watching. Cai Mao was watching the Kuai family's attitude.
The Kuai family also had disagreements. Kuai Liang objected, thinking that Yuan Shao's plan was indeed good, but Liu Zhang himself was very talented and had many capable people around him to help him.
Therefore, Kuai Liang concluded that all Yuan Shao's clever plans would eventually become a mirror and be difficult to realize.
As the second-in-command of the Kuai family, Kuai Yue, who had always followed the orders of his eldest brother Kuai Liang, raised different opinions for the first time and publicly expressed his support for Yuan Shao.
The reason is also very simple. Even if Liu Zhang has great power, it is difficult for him to summon soldiers and horses.
Although Liu Zhang occupies most of Yizhou, his troops are very limited. Now that he is desperate to go south to conquer, it will inevitably leave all counties empty.
As long as he can attack with thunderous force, he will definitely be able to invade Yizhou before Liu Zhang leads his army to return for reinforcements. When faced with various armies, Liu Zhang will have no other choice but to wait and be captured!
It was precisely because of their different opinions that Kuai Yue and Kuai Liang had some conflicts.
Afterwards, Kuai Yue personally visited Cai Mansion and successfully gained Cai Mao's support with his sharp tongue.
After receiving the support of Cai and Kuai, Liu Biao no longer had any doubts and directly divided his troops into two groups to attack Yizhou.
Kuai Yue was able to personally serve as military advisor entirely because of his brother Kuai Liang.
Kuai Yue wants to prove to the world that Kuai Liang is not a god and will not have an exhaustive plan for everything.
And he, Kuai Yue, is not a waste, and he cannot be as good as Kuai Liang in everything!
Unfortunately, more than a month later, facts proved to Kuai Yue that his elder brother was right!
"What did the lord say?"
Zhang Yun's defeat does not mean anything, and the conquest of Yizhou will not fail. Zhang Yun's defeat can only prove that Zhang Yun is a waste.
If Liu Biao still supports the westward advance, then Kuai Yue will have the confidence to persist, but he can no longer wait and wait. He must find a way to defeat Xun You in front of him.
It's a pity, the soldier shook his head.
"Military advisor, my lord has said that we should give up the matter in Yizhou for the time being and order the military advisor and General Cai to withdraw immediately!"
Kuai Yue narrowed his eyes and stared at the messenger.
"Are these my lord's true words?"
The soldier nodded solemnly, and then said something that made Quin Yue even more frightened.
"To the military advisor, not only are these the Lord's exact words, but the tone is exactly the same!"
It was precisely because of these words that Kuai Yue woke up like a blow to the head! A frightening thought came to his mind.
Maybe Zhang Yun was not the only one who lost in Hanzhong, maybe Ma Teng and Han Sui also had problems!
Liu Biao must have received some information before he spoke so resolutely.
Even my elder brother’s words ‘to avoid causing serious disaster’!
After tasting it carefully, Kuai Yue felt even more frightened in his heart.
"I hope it's not too late!"
After saying the next sentence, Kuai Yue quickly ran out and went straight to Cai Mao's Chinese army commander's tent.
But just as he ran to the door of the handsome tent, a bright light came into Kuai Yue's eyes.
"This is..."
The sky to the northeast of the camp is filled with red light, and smoke and dust are constantly rising in the light.
"Not good! There's a fire in Wu County!"
What is half the red sky if it's not a fire?
Kuai Yue was extremely frightened. This sudden fire that burst into the sky must be some kind of signal!
Thinking of the current situation of slackness in the army and the wanton behavior of the general Cai Mao, Kuai Yue did not dare to delay any longer, and directly broke through all the obstacles and broke into the commander's tent.
Everything was as expected by Kuai Yue. Cai Hao drank a lot today and snored loudly in the handsome tent, resounding all around!
"Cai Mao! Cai Mao! Wake up quickly"
No matter how much Kuai Yue shook, Cai Mao showed no sign of waking up and was still sleeping like a dead pig!
Snapped!
Kuai Yue exerted all his strength and gave Cai Hao a big mouth, but there was still no reaction.
Bang bang bang bang!
Kuai Yue didn't even know how many times he had been slapped. It wasn't until he sat down on the ground out of breath that Cai Mao slowly woke up.
"Who! Who...is so brave! Dare...dare to fight...this general!"
His whole body smelled of alcohol and his mouth was full of drunken words. Kuai Yue had no idea whether he was really awake or pretending to be awake.
"Cai Mao, wake up! It's a disaster!"
Cai Mao opened his hazy sleepy eyes slightly, still mumbling.
"Misfortune? What... calamity?"
Maybe at this moment, Cai Mao didn't know the meaning of the word disaster at all!
"Wake up, we are in danger! Cai Mao!"
Perhaps Kuai Yue had a deeper impression of Cai Mao, and finally awakened a glimmer of clarity in Cai Mao's mind.
"Alien...? It's so late at night... why are you so crazy if you don't sleep?"
"I..."
Just when Kuai Yue was about to open his mouth to explain, shouts of killing broke out outside, and the entire camp began to become noisy.
