Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    "It seems that Mr. Huang has also heard of this Huang Chengyan." Yan Liang said.

    "Huang Chengyan, of course I have heard of him, a famous member of the Huang family among the six great families in Jingzhou."

    Listening to Xu You's tone, although he acknowledged Huang Chengyan's celebrity status and status, he didn't have much respect. It seemed that Huang Chengyan was inferior to himself.

    "Six major families? It's interesting. Sir, you might as well elaborate."

    Yan Liang became interested. After all, although he was familiar with the Three Kingdoms, most of his images of the Three Kingdoms came from the Romance of the Three Kingdoms and did not go into too much depth.

    Xu You rarely asked Yan Liang for advice, so he talked endlessly.

    Yan Liang listened quietly, his mind spinning rapidly, and he quickly sorted out the connections between the Jingxiang family.

    These six aristocratic families are Kuai, Pang, Ma, Cai, Huang, and Xi. Among them, the Zhonglu Kuai family and the Xiangyang Cai family have the strongest influence. The representatives of these two families are Cai Mao and Kuai.  cross.

    When Liu Biao captured Jingzhou, he relied on the full support of the Cai family and the Kuai family. Liu Biao surrendered and greatly used the Cai family and the Kuai family. It is not an exaggeration to say that almost all of the important positions in Jingzhou's military and political power were occupied.  monopolized by these two companies.

    Anyone who understands can see that on the surface, Liu Biaocai is the ruler of Jingzhou, but in fact, the real rulers of Jingzhou are the Kuai and Cai tribes.

    As for the other four surnames, their combined strength is not as strong as the Kuai and Cai clans. Therefore, the four clans are not at the core of Jingzhou's rule. Although many people serve as officials in Liu Biao, few are in high positions.

    The only exception was Huang Zu, the head of the Huang family. This man was highly regarded by Liu Biao and was entrusted with the important post of Jiangxia Prefect. He was one of the few powerful people in Jingzhou besides Kuai Yue and Cai Mao to fight against the threat of the Sun family in Jiangdong.  generation.

    As for Huang Chengyan, although he is also the leader of the Huang family, he belongs to the common branch. Although he is famous, he has not been reused by Liu Biao and is currently living in seclusion in the countryside.

    "The people Liu Biao relies on are either from wealthy families or the first-class celebrities in the world. It seems that this person pays too much attention to his family background and likes to use high-ranking people like him. Well, from this point of view, there must be many in Jingzhou who are in the opposition  The taxi men have a grudge against him."

    In just a few words, Yan Liang revealed Liu Biao's shortcomings in employing people and Jingzhou's hidden dangers.

    Xu You couldn't help but show admiration, surprised by Yan Liang's quick thinking, and he could sort out the details of Jingzhou so quickly.

    He nodded and said: "The general's comment is spot on. In fact, what you want to say is that not all the noble families in Jingzhou support Liu Biao, and the various surnames are not monolithic. If we want to win over people, we can start here."

    Xu You¡¯s plan is consistent with what Yan Liangliang had in mind.

    In history, Liu Bei won the support of Zhuge Liang, Pang Tong, Ma Liang, Jiang Wan, and Huang Zhong, who were not valued by Liu Biao, and captured Jingzhou.

    With the precedent of Liu Bei, Yan Liang is convinced that even if he does not get the support of the Kuai and Cai clans, as long as he can be as meritocratic as Cao Cao, he will definitely be able to win Jingzhou.

    "What you said is absolutely true, but I wonder if you have any advice on how to proceed with this first step?" Yan Liang asked.

    Xu You chuckled and glanced outside, seemingly hinting at something.

    Yan Liang was startled for a moment, and suddenly his eyes lit up, "Could it be that Sir is trying to take advantage of Miss Huang?"

    "Ahem~~" Xu You coughed a few times, "What the general said, I, Xu You, am already nearly fifty years old, how can I have the nerve to delay the youth of a young girl.

    "What does that mean, sir" Yan Liang had actually guessed his intention, but deliberately pretended not to know.

    Xu You had no choice but to speak bluntly: "The fastest way to win over the Jingxiang family is to get married. Didn't Liu Biao marry Cai Mao's sister back then? I think this girl Huang is quite pretty, and she is destined to be with the general. Why not, general?"  If you ask for a wife, you can get a good wife, and you can also take the opportunity to build relationships with the Huang family. "

    Xu You talked eloquently, as if he was a bit enchanting like a matchmaker.

    "Which hero doesn't love beauty? To be honest, with Huang Yueying's beauty and temperament, how could Yan Liang not be attracted to her?

    But Yan Liang was thinking that if he married Huang Yueying, wouldn't he marry Zhuge Liang's wife? This would be a bit unkind.

    But then he thought again, now that Huang Yueying is not married yet, why does she have to marry Zhuge Liang?

    Now that I have met her, as Xu You said, it is fate. If I don't take the initiative to fight for the woman I like, but just hand it over to others, and I am not even worthy of a man, what's the point?  Qualified to compete with the heroes.

     Thinking of this, Yan Liang's thoughts immediately became clear, and a smile couldn't help but flash across the corner of his mouth.

    His expression was tantamount to acquiescing to Xu You's suggestion.

    Xu You was very happy and couldn't help laughing. After laughing a few times, he suddenly calmed down again.

    "This Huang Chengyan is also a very assertive person. He has kept his daughter until now. He is probably looking for a suitable husband-in-law. The general has just come to Jingzhou and his foundation is not stable. He wants to persuade him to marry his daughter to the general.  I'm afraid I still have to put some thought into it"

    Xu You murmured to himself, looking a little worried.

    Xu You's worries are not unreasonable. In history, Huang Chengyan took a fancy to Zhuge Liang's talent and potential, so he took the initiative to promise his daughter to him.

    It seems that this Huang Chengyan is also a very discerning person. If you want him to marry his daughter to him, you must let him see his extraordinary potential.

    Yan Liang thought for a while, then snorted coldly: "The situation in the world is changing, and I don't have that much patience. When it comes to marriage, I will be polite first and then fight. If Huang Chengyan refuses to marry his daughter to me, I will marry him by force."  yes."

    In troubled times, it¡¯s not enough to just be polite, sometimes it¡¯s also to be overbearing and arrogant. Yan Liang knows this very well.

    Xu You was stunned for a moment, with a wry smile on his face, "The general is right, but I am pedantic. If it really doesn't work, I can only use force."

    While the two of them were discussing the matter, the guards outside the door came to report that Xu You had urgent military information.

    Yan Liang took out the information from the sealed wax pill and took a look at it, his sword eyebrows couldn't help but condense into a thin line.

    Cao Cao made another move.

    Cao Hong, who was stationed in Wancheng, Nanyang, was leading 4,000 cavalry southward towards Xinye. At the same time, Cai Yang, who was ordered to re-station in Runan, was also leading 3,000 troops and approaching Xinye from the east.

    Cao Cao wanted to take advantage of Yan Liangfang's new position and his unsteady foothold to eliminate the thorn in his side with a two-pronged attack.

    "Cao Cao on the other side of Guandu has reached his limit. He dares to attack Xinye with a large number of troops at such a critical moment. He must be too courageous." Xu You looked at the information and looked very surprised.

    Yan Liang sneered and said: "Cao Cao is the best at making surprises. He expected that we thought he would not dare to send troops, so he did the opposite in order to catch us by surprise."

    Xu You nodded slightly, but said disapprovingly: "Cao Hong and Cai Yang are far less capable of using troops than Cao Ren, so why should we be afraid?"

    "What I'm worried about is not Cao Hong, but that old cunning Liu Biao."

    Yan Liang¡¯s eyebrows were slightly furrowed, and his tone was meaningful.
