Kuai Yue is a descendant of Han Xin's former counselor Kuai Tong. He comes from a famous family and has been a powerful family for many generations. His family has great prestige in Jingzhou. Kuai Yue himself is also famous for being good at strategy, so He Jin values him and sends someone to summon him.
For one's own subordinates.
After Kuai Yue arrived in Luoyang, He made many plans and helped He Jin recruit many capable people, and was highly valued by He Jin.
After Liu Biao joined He Jin's army, the two had similar minds and had a quite friendly relationship. So this time, Liu Biao could not decide on this matter, so he consulted Kuai Yue on this matter, hoping to get Kuai Yue's advice.
After Kuai Yue heard about Liu Bei's subordinate Yan Wen coming to persuade him, he thought about it for a moment and showed worry.
"Jingsheng, actually even if Liu Bei didn't send anyone to persuade you, I would still like to persuade you not to take a trip into this muddy water. The current situation is so turbulent that I can't see it clearly. I always feel very uneasy. Moreover, I
There is always a feeling.”
"What does it feel like?"
Liu Biao looked at Kuai Yue nervously.
"It is difficult for a general to win."
Kuai Yue said slowly: "If it is true, as the rumors say, that the purpose of the emperor's action is to prevent the general from his relatives from monopolizing power and to avoid what the late emperor and the emperor encountered when they first ascended the throne, then I think that
There is a high probability that the general will fail."
"Why do you say that?"
Liu Biao said in confusion: "The general has the Luoyang Northern Army, the Huben Army, the Yulin Army, and more than 30,000 foreign troops. In addition, the Yuan family's disciples and former officials serve as the backing. The power is huge and the world is oppressive. The emperor only has Xiyuan on his side."
Although the army, Dong Zhong and Liu Bei have slightly more troops, they seem to be in a balanced state."
"Do you think Liu will just send lobbyists to you?"
Kuai Yue raised the bamboo slip in his hand and whispered: "Will he send lobbyists to you? Will he send lobbyists to Liu Qingzhou? Will he send lobbyists to other local military and political officials he is familiar with?
Will those lobbyists say the same thing to them, asking them to review the situation and recall the troops? And will those people seriously consider this matter like you and me and make another choice?"
Liu Biao was stunned for a moment, then turned pale with shock.
"Can Liu defeat others without fighting?"
Kuai Yue looked serious.
"It's hard to say. It's hard to say anything until things happen. But I suspect that with Liu's prestige and ability, at least half of the more than 30,000 foreign soldiers recruited by the general can be destroyed by Liu Bei. The morale of the military will be
So shaken that he cannot fight."
Liu Biao looked very bad after hearing this.
"When that time comes..."
"At that time, all it takes is an edict from the emperor to confirm that the general is a traitor on the grounds that the previous general did not obey the emperor's order to send off foreign troops, and Liu will be famous."
Kuai Yue whispered: "Now Luoyang City is basically under the control of the emperor. The Yulin Army and the Tiger Army have been moved out of Luoyang City because they cannot be trusted. As long as Liu Bei leads his troops close to Luoyang, he can defeat Luoyang City."
Support each other and become a horn.
By then, the general and Yuan's troops are outside the city. With his back to Luoyang City, Liu has no worries and can launch his army to attack. With his troops strong and skilled in fighting, can the general and his troops resist? Can the troops under Yuan's command be able to resist?
Resist? You will definitely be defeated like a mountain! What will happen next, Jing Sheng, can't you imagine?"
Liu Biao's expression was gloomy and uncertain.
"If this is the case, it cannot be said that the general and the Yuan family do not have any resistance, right? The strength of the general's subordinates is limited, but the disciples and former officials of the Yuan family are all over the world, and they can raise many troops with a single shout, especially the
Dong Zhuo, the former official of the Yuan family, is still serving as the governor of Bingzhou and has powerful soldiers under his command. If the Yuan family sends them south, the outcome will be uncertain, right?"
Kuai Yue shook his head repeatedly.
"It is true that the Yuan family has disciples and former officials all over the world, but they are far away in the world and not in Luoyang. If you raise your arms, it will take about a year to form an army and arrive in Luoyang. By that time, the Yuan family's ancestral tomb may be
They were all ruined by Liu.
Let's talk about Dong Zhuo. You don't know who Dong Zhuo is, right? He is from Liangzhou. What is Liu's position? Liangzhou Mu! And I heard that Dong Zhuo has a nephew who became Liangzhou's two thousand stone under Liu's command.
Trusted, do you think Dong Zhuo will serve the Yuan family wholeheartedly?"
When Kuai Yue said this, Liu Biao suddenly felt unsure.
After a while, he slowly looked at Kuai Yue.
"So, in this dispute, the general will lose? The Yuan family will lose?"
Kuai Yue shook his head.
"We can't say that we will definitely lose, but there is at least a 70% chance of defeat. Jingsheng, do you want to bet on the 70% possibility or the 30% chance?"
Liu Biao thought for a while.
"Xeno, how do you bet?"
"A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall. Jing Sheng should know my choice. I will never do anything I am not sure about. If I am not sure, then my choice is to retreat."
"In that case..."
Liu Biao held Kuai Yue's hand: "Please teach me how to escape from death. I can't stay in Luoyang any longer. I don't want to wait for death here. Please help me!"
Kuai Yue hesitated for a while.
"Jingsheng, given our current situation, if we want to survive and protect ourselves, the only option is to leave."
"Please go?"
"I plan to use the reason that my mother is old and needs to serve, and I want to be an official closer to my hometown. It doesn't matter how high I am, even a county magistrate. As long as I can leave Luoyang, that's fine."
After Liu Biao heard Kuai Yue's plan, he frowned and thought about it.
"Isn't this too obvious? It's easy to see through, isn't it? If the general sees through it and doesn't agree, can we just abandon our position and leave?"
"So hurry up, finalize this matter before the general doesn't react, and before others take action, and leave Luoyang as soon as possible! The sooner, the better!"
Kuai Yue said: "Also, before you leave, you must write to Liu and let Liu know why you are leaving. In this way, you can leave yourself a way out. When Liu wins and his power is overwhelming, you can return
There is a chance to return to Luoyang."
Liu Biao was a little worried.
"I escaped at this time and didn't help him. Will he let me return to Luoyang afterwards?"
"In our capacity, if we don't help the general, we are helping Liu."
Kuai Yue whispered: "Can someone as smart as Liu not understand this? If he couldn't understand, he wouldn't come back to Luoyang at this time! Nor would he write to you to let you make a choice! He
Being able to come back to Luoyang at this time shows that he has great plans!"
Liu Biao suddenly understood and nodded repeatedly.
"What Yidu said is reasonable. I understand. If this happens, I will remember Yidu's kindness in helping me."
"In this case, we two should act quickly and leave Luoyang as soon as possible. If it is too late, we may not be able to leave openly."
Kuai Yue cast his gaze outside and whispered: "Luoyang is at war, and the two palaces are bleeding. What the general said in order to deceive the emperor will actually become a reality in the end. I don't know what day it will really come.
How would the general feel? And I’m not sure what the situation will be like in the Han Dynasty after the bloodshed in the two palaces.”
Liu Biao walked to Kuai Yue's side and looked at the gray sky outside together.
"There is no medicine for regret in the world. If we really get to that point, no matter how much the general regrets, it will be useless. He has no choice, but we still have a choice."
Kuai Yue nodded.
"Yes, we still have options, so let's go!"
Liu Biao and Kuai Yue reached an agreement.
Liu Bei never thought that the blast aimed at Liu Biao would kill two birds with one stone.
Liu Biao was leaving, and so was Kuai Yue. It was really wonderful to take two people away with one letter.
