Chapter 1680: The real blade (thanks to Xiangyun Huanyue and the gift)
Chapter 1680: True Send Blade (Thanks to Xiangyun Huanyue for the reward and gift)
Hearing that Liu Bei wanted to recall Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, Gan Long and Gan Mao looked at each other. Gan Mao shook his head and said: "My lord, Zhu Di is already struggling against the two great princes Cao and Zhao alone. It is impossible to let the two generals Guan and Zhang come back easily."
."
In Gan Mao's view, Guan Yu was Zhu Di's well-deserved benefactor. It was Guan Yu who helped Zhu Di through the most difficult period of Zhu Ming's life.
Therefore, after the war is over, if Guan Yu wants to leave, Zhu Di will not only not kill him, but will also send him out of the country with gifts. Otherwise, he will definitely get the reputation of repaying a kindness with vengeance.
Zhu Di is a smart man, and he will definitely not dig his own grave, so it is not difficult for Guan Yu to leave, but the key is the timing of leaving.
Before the end of the Central Plains War, Zhu Di still had to rely on Guan and Zhang to help. Once Guan and Zhang were gone, the war in the Central Plains might be different, so how could Zhu Di let Guan and Zhang leave at this time?
"Brother Gan doesn't know. The latest information from the Central Plains says that Niu Mowang, the former Yellow Turban general, has now joined Zhu Di's command and has also defeated Cao Wei general Yin Zhou."
At this point, a trace of envy flashed in Liu Bei's eyes. There were endless generals under the command of other princes. Even Zhu Di, who had just succeeded to the throne, had top generals like Niu Mowang who took the initiative to join him. Only he had only two sworn brothers to accompany him from beginning to end. God
How unfair it was for Liu Bei to treat him.
Liu Bei shook his head, and after dispelling the distracting thoughts, he continued: "Don't forget to be here if you have a cow. The second brother's influence on Zhu Di is not as great as before. If the second brother wants to leave, I think Zhu Di will not refuse."
"Don't forget Niu?"
After Gan Mao pondered for a while, he frowned and asked: "Is this person Niu Kui, one of the three war gods of the Yellow Turban?"
"Yes, that's him." Liu Bei replied.
The Three Yellow Turban War Gods is a rather old title. It was active from the beginning of the Yellow Turban Rebellion to the establishment of the Ming Dynasty. It refers to the three generals Xiang Yu, Luo Shixin and Niu Kui.
Niu Kui is now Niu Mo Wang. Compared with Xiang Yu and Luo Shixin, Niu Kui's reputation is much lower. However, since he is as famous as these two people, it is enough to show that Niu Kui's strength is definitely not as good as those of Xiang Yu and Luo Shixin.
Weak, otherwise it would be absolutely impossible for him to be listed as one of the three Yellow Turban war gods.
After hearing that Niu Mowang was Niu Kui, a glimmer of understanding flashed in Gan Mao's eyes, and he said happily: "Master, with this person here, Zhu Ming has another pillar to support the sky, and Zhu Di will not rely too much on the two generals Guan and Zhang.
, there is hope for the two generals to escape."
"Um."
A trace of longing flashed in Liu Bei's eyes, and he whispered to himself: "Second brother and third brother, come back quickly. Big brother misses you."

"Lord Qi, the imperialists are restless again."
Hearing this, a trace of ridicule flashed in Jia Xu's eyes, and he said calmly: "Ignore it, is there any movement from Liu Bei's side?"
Jia Xu saw the little actions of the imperialists but never paid attention to them.
When hundreds of officials returned to the court, since Jia Xu dared to take the initiative to spare these people's lives, he could send these people to death at any time.
In Jia Xu's view, those members of the imperial party who kept causing trouble were just a group of fat pigs raised by him to be slaughtered. No matter how much trouble they made, they were destined to be unable to shake things up.
In contrast, Liu Bei, who was relatively inconspicuous, made Jia Xu even more afraid. After all, a dog that bites doesn't bark.
"Your Majesty, Liu Bei only sent a letter to Xuzhou through a caravan, but there was no contact with the Imperial Party. Now the Imperial Party regards Liu Bei as a traitor to the Liu family."
Hearing this, Jia Xu's eyes suddenly lit up and he secretly said: Liu Xuande, Liu Xuande, you can't stand it anymore, can you?
Liu, Guan, and Zhang Taoyuan were sworn brothers, and the friendship between the three was well known throughout the world. Therefore, Liu Bei's letter to Xuzhou was obviously to contact Guan and Zhang.
Before Qin Hao left Luoyang, he gave Jia Xu a task. Once Guan Yu and Zhang Fei returned, he would find a suitable reason to get rid of Liu Bei and find a way to subdue these two powerful generals Guan Yu and Zhang Fei.
Now that Guan Yu and Zhang Fei may be about to return, Jia Xu will also start to get rid of Liu Bei.
Liu Bei's status is quite special. He is both a clan member of the Han Dynasty and an imperial uncle recognized by the Han Emperor. Therefore, in order to get rid of him, he must be justified in order to convince the public.
Jia Xu had been looking for excuses against Liu Bei before, but Liu Bei was too cautious and barely showed any flaws, so Jia Xu couldn't even find an excuse to attack him.
But it's different now. Now that Liu Bei has taken action, it proves that he will not remain silent. The more actions he takes, the more flaws he will have. This makes it easier for Jia Xu to deal with him.
"Continue to monitor secretly. If there is any movement, report immediately." Jia Xu said coldly.
"promise."

The next day, after Jia Xu personally sent Yue Fei away from Luoyang, he began to deal with the matter of sending Kublai Khan back to his country.
Jia Xu already knew about the assassination of Kublai Khan that day. After interrogation, he found that among the assassins, there were both Yuanmeng and Han Chinese.
This was not the first assassination attempt against Kublai Khan. The previous assassinations had been disrupted by Jin Yiwei. This also allowed Xuanjingsi, who had finally recovered some strength, to have his strength greatly weakened again because of these assassinations.
The Xuanjing Division alone was no longer able to assassinate Kublai Khan, so the Yuanmeng people spent money to hire the Central Plains Assassin Group, hoping to use the hands of the Han people to get rid of Kublai Khan, so Han people appeared in the assassin group.
As for Murong Hua and others who were also imprisoned in the Jinyi Guard Prison and were protecting Kublai Khan, Jia Xu decided to let them go after weighing the situation briefly.
In the final analysis, Murong Hua is just an ordinary grandmaster. There are many masters of his level in the Qin army. Killing or not killing is not very effective. It is better to let him protect Kublai Khan when he returns home.
Befriend Kublai Khan, the third Emperor of the Yuan Dynasty.
Luoyang, outside the north gate.
Jia Xu and Kublai Khan were riding in the same car, but Kublai Khan, as the prince of Yuanmeng and the future emperor of Yuan Dynasty, was driving for Jia Xu at the front of the car.
After the motorcade drove out of the north gate, Kublai Khan jumped out of the car, raised his hands to Jia Xu in the car and said, "Thank you, Mr. Jia. We will see you later."
After saying that, Kublai Khan turned around and left, preparing to get into another carriage, but before he had walked a few steps, he heard the words "Wait a minute" behind him.
Kublai Khan's heart suddenly skipped a beat. He turned around dully and said coldly: "Master Jia, please let me go back to my country. But do you still want to disobey King Qin's order?"
"I naturally dare not violate King Qin's will, but..."
Jia Xu smiled calmly, and after a long tone, he continued: "There is no precedent for a prey that fell into my hands to escape alive. Your Highness, you are the first one. This makes me sigh."
"Really? Then let me sigh slowly, my lord. There are still important things in Yuan Meng's country, so I won't be with you much longer."
As soon as he finished speaking, Kublai Khan was ready to leave. He really didn't want to face this old man Jia Xu. He always felt like he was completely seen through in front of this person.
"Your Highness, don't worry. Since I want to let you go, I will never harm you. However, there is something I need to remind the prince of."
A flash of light flashed in Jia Xu's eyes, and he said with a faint smile: "On the land of the Han Dynasty, with the protection of our Qin army, His Highness is naturally absolutely safe, but it is not necessarily the case in the grassland. Those assassins will not let you go back easily.
From Dragon City, please be careful, Your Highness."
"Thank you, Mr. Jia, for your concern."
Looking at Kublai Khan's leaving figure, Jia Xu knew that he would definitely defeat Mao Dun and become the third Emperor of the Yuan Dynasty, because what Yuan Meng needed was an emperor who could govern the country, not a military general.
