In the early month of the fifth year of Xingping

…………

I don't know if I can use this year name now.

The emperor was gone and the court was gone, but the new emperor did not appear. People all over the world agreed that this year was the fifth year of Xingping.

Anyway, before everything is settled, just do it like this.

At this moment, Liu Biao received a letter from Liu Pan and Sun Ce. After reading it, Liu Biao remained silent and took a long time to find Cai Mao and Kuai Yue.

"Sun Bofu wants to get a truce with me."

It's concise and to the point, just like that.

Cai Mao and Kuai Yue looked at each other and probably understood what Liu Biao meant.

The world's pattern has changed drastically, and in just a few months, the pattern has been beyond recognition.

When they started the war, the world was in chaos, and now it was even more chaos.

Obviously, this is not the time to continue the war with Sun Ce, because the threat from the north is too great.

Guo Peng pacified Xuzhou, and the last obstacle in the Central Plains disappeared. No one could hinder Guo Peng's pace in the Central Plains.

Guo Peng's power was bounded by Yangzhou, while Jingzhou was bounded by Nanyang County.

It seems that Guo Peng has no intention of going south. After the dramatic changes in Hongnong, he returned to Yecheng directly, without intending to go south. It is estimated that the focus of the next focus will be in Guanxi, not in the south.

Having said that, Guo Peng has unified Hebei and the Central Plains, and his power is so huge that it is the world. If he continues to develop and Liu Biao continues to fight with Sun Ce, does not mean that everyone will commit suicide together?

"If Guo Zifeng intends to go south and Sun Bofu and I have to continue fighting, that is the laughing stock in the eyes of the people of the world. Will Tao Qian be different?"

Liu Biao took a deep breath and slowly tapped the table: "Xuzhou Chen Yuanlong and various major families in Xuzhou resisted Tao Qian and invited Guo Zifeng to Xuzhou. Isn't this a conspiracy directed by Guo Zifeng?

His mouth was full of national justice and benevolence and morality. He looked helpless until the last moment. He made three remarks and three reassurances, not only won the reputation of the world, but also obtained the title of Duke Wei, and had a feudal country and a country, gaining all the advantages. Guo Zifeng! How hypocritical! How terrible!"

Cai Mao looked at Liu Biao, and saw Liu Biao's face full of fear, and felt a little disdainful.

You have always looked down on Guo Peng before, and you are the one who said Guo Peng is a child with a bad mouth, but now you find that he is terrible?

It was terrible enough when he defeated Yuan Shao, and it was even more terrible when he defeated Yuan Shu. Isn't that the case?

Only now discover?

Liu Jingsheng, you are too arrogant, the Empress Dowager realized it later.

"If there is no stop to fight, Jingzhou will definitely follow in Xuzhou's footsteps."

Liu Biao looked at Cai Mao and Kuai Yue, and his eyes became a little cold: "Or, am I already following Tao Qian's footsteps?"

Cai Mao and Kuai Yue's hearts burst, their pupils shrank, and they immediately fell to the ground.

Feeling Liu Biao's mental state, Cai Mao and Kuai Yue, who were not prepared, were shocked.

"Empress, there is absolutely nothing like this!"

"Empress, for several years, we have worked together. Do you want to doubt us?"

The two of them hurriedly expressed their loyalty and their unparalleled will. After watching for a while, Liu Biao felt relieved and let them stand up.

"I was very angry when you didn't let me be the king of Chu in the past, but when I saw Tao Gongzu's fate, I knew that if I force myself to be the king against the will of the people, I would not have a good ending. I will not persist in this matter anymore. I am still the governor of Jingzhou, not the king of Chu."

Liu Biao gave in and compromised, which surprised Cai Mao and Kuai Yue.

Did it not until this time that Liu Biao woke up from Guo Peng's huge threat and the death of the emperor and decided to be a low-key person?

"Not only that, I also want to join forces with Sun Bofu to fight against Guo Zifeng. It is best to send people to Sichuan, reach an alliance with Liu Jiyu, and fight against Guo Zifeng together. Once he wants to go south, we will send troops north from three sides and never let him succeed!"

Liu Biao narrowed his eyes and expressed his plan.

Cai Mao and Kuai Yue suddenly felt that Liu Biao had been confused for so long, and the only decision he made at this time was very correct.

If the three states of Jing Yiyang can reach an offensive and defensive alliance, Guo Peng attacks the family, and the other two companies will send troops north to clamp down, Guo Peng will definitely be in great trouble.

However, let alone whether this agreement can be reached, even if it is reached, isn’t it a bit too late?

It has been more than a day or two for Guo Peng to become the world's number one prince. In the past, Liu Biao was afraid of Guo Peng because of his strong strength and did not dare to offend him, so he did not dare to do anything. Now, seeing Guo Peng annex Xuzhou, I finally felt that it was meaningless to be afraid blindly?

It's really a bit late.

The most important parts of the Han Dynasty were occupied by Guo Peng. Whether it was the population or the materials, Jingyiyang Prefectures and Jiaozhou further south could not confront Guo Peng at all. The potential for population and materials development was much weaker than that of the north, and it was not the same order of magnitude at all.

Now that I have realized it, it’s really too late, and the overall situation is settled.

He thought so in his heart, but Liu Biao's orders must be abide by. Kuai Yue is responsible for contacting Sun Ce and Cai Mao is responsible for contacting Liu Zhang.

The two sides contacted each other and prepared to sign a treaty on offensive and defensive alliances, fight against Guo Peng together, and resist Guo Peng's possible attacks together.

In addition, Liu Biao was also very concerned about the public opinion situation in the Central Plains and Yangzhou Yizhou after the Emperor's death. He wanted to know how the people in the world viewed this matter and the most critical and core issues.

Liu Xie is dead, who will continue to be the emperor?

Liu Biao felt that this decision must be difficult to make.

No matter which Liu clan wants to be an emperor, it must be recognized by the major princes. Otherwise, everyone will support one emperor and the world will be divided directly.

Of course, the most critical figure among them is Guo Peng.

Only Guo Peng has strong strength and vast territory, the emperor he elected is the most qualified to become the emperor, while the other forces are really a bit ineligible.

The other person looks like the central emperor, and his side is like the local emperor who is in a stable place.

No matter how you look at it, you are pitiful and helpless.

However, will everyone agree with the emperor elected by Guo Peng?

He gave the emperor to Guo Peng as the qualification of the princes, and gave it to Guo Peng in the name of great righteousness. Didn’t he mean to fight wherever he was?

So everyone still has a way out?

The result must be that one will not admit it, and one must introduce one's own emperor as representative.

That would be a full-scale Warring States confrontation.

Liu Biao suddenly thought of such a terrible future.

We must take the initiative, prepare for the future, and be prepared before everything is settled.

The situation has changed, it has really changed.

The three states of Jing Yiyang must unite to fight against Guo Peng and any threats and risks. Everyone must tie them together and resist them together.
