Comprehensive comic: The Demon King from Another World returns to daily life!

Cai Mao glanced at Liu Jue, then sighed and said,"Jue'er, there is one thing I want to tell you. In fact, your father has issued an edict and decided to let you inherit Jingzhou."

Liu Jue's heart moved, and he didn't know. Surprised, he nodded immediately and said:"I know."

Cai Mao looked at Liu Jue and said slowly:"From now on, you will be the lord of Jingzhou! In today's world, Cao Cao has unified the north and is a dominant family. As long as he clears out the The Yuan brothers and Wuhuan from the three counties are expected to go south in a few years. I wonder what your plans are, Jueer?"

In a few years?

If nothing unexpected happens, Cao Cao will march south to Jingzhou in July next year. How can he wait until a few years later?

Liu Jue smiled faintly and said,"Of course the soldiers came to cover up the water and the earth. If you ask me to surrender to Cao Cao, my father would not agree."

Cai Mao coughed lightly and said,"Jue'er, Cao Cao has many soldiers and generals. I'm afraid I won't be able to stop Jingzhou's troops against him."

Liu Jue shook his head and said with a smile:"My uncle's words are wrong. If Cao Cao goes south, I can form an alliance with Sun Quan to resist Cao Cao. Then we may not have no chance of winning. ?"

Cai Mao frowned and said:"You have just defeated Jiangdong and lost nearly 20,000 soldiers and horses of Sun Quan, as well as two generals. Will Sun Quan be willing to form an alliance with you?"

Liu Jue laughed and said:"Uncle, Sun Quan is after all. Among the princes, if I, Jingzhou, cannot stop Cao Cao, Jiangdong will be the next unlucky one. Sun Quan doesn't understand the principle of lips dying and teeth falling cold, right? Even if there is enmity between him and me, Sun Quan still knows the importance of life and death."

Cai Mao nodded and said:"You are right, but only Jingzhou and Jiangdong may not be able to defeat Cao Cao."

Liu Jue shook his head and said:"Uncle, Cao Cao has many good generals, and the Central Plains heroes are powerful in the world. This point I admit it, but most of the soldiers in his hands are from Qingzhou and Xuzhou, and are not familiar with water at all. It is not their strong point to use saddles and boats to compete with Jingchu and Wuyue."

"Even if Cao Cao could capture Xiangyang, it would not be easy for him to cross the Yangtze River due to the natural dangers of the Yangtze River."Liu Jue showed a meaningful smile.

In fact, Liu Jue had been thinking about how to deal with the Battle of Chibi from very early on. Although he had defeated Cao Ren before, Cao Cao's nearly 200,000 troops went south. It would be a head-on confrontation with them. Irrational.

So we still have to place the decisive battle on the Yangtze River, and give Cao Cao a painful beating.

In fact, Cao Cao's biggest loss in the Battle of Chibi was the loss of the opportunity to dominate the world.

The loss in military strength was not large. Chibi After the battle, Cao Cao's elites were still there. After returning to the north, they quickly recovered and defeated Ma Chao and Han Sui.

Therefore, the Battle of Chibi was an opportunity for Liu Jue, and it only left Cao Cao injured. Bones, his road to hegemony will become smoother.

If Cao Cao is defeated more miserably than in history, I am afraid his end will be as miserable as Fu Jian.

In order to place the decisive battle in the Yangtze River, Liu Jue also considered more than once whether to strategically release Xiangyang, Jiangling and other cities to Cao Cao.

As long as Cao Cao was defeated in the Battle of Chibi, it would be easy to get these cities back.

Cai Mao also felt that after hearing Liu Jue's words There is some truth, but the image of Cao Cao's army being invincible has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. It is impossible for him to change his position just because of Liu Jue's words.

Cai Mao really wanted to convince Liu Jue that it would be best to surrender to Cao Cao then, but it seems Liu Jue's attitude is that he knows that his nephew will not be willing to submit to others. In the near future, Liu Jue will be the lord of Jingzhou. As a minister, it is better not to have a bad relationship with Liu Jue.

Liu Jue was silent when he saw Cai Mao Without saying a word, he suddenly smiled and said:"Uncle, since you want to have a good talk with me, why are you so secretive when you talk? In fact, I know what you are thinking. After all, there are so many people in the Cai family. You have to be careful when choosing your side. If you are not careful, the Cai family will be destroyed. This nephew still understands."

When Cai Mao heard Liu Jue's words and saw that he had made everything clear, he suddenly showed a bit of embarrassment and laughed dryly a few times. He didn't know how to answer the question for a while. After a while,

Cai Mao coughed and said a little ashamedly. He said authentically:"Jue'er, I didn't expect that my uncle's thoughts were clearly seen by you. There is no way, Cao Cao's power is too great, and I don't know what to do.

Liu Jue waved his hand and said with a smile:"No problem, this is human nature!" Uncle, you don’t have to think too much. Half of the blood flowing in my body comes from the Cai family. Naturally, I also want the Cai family to prosper."

"Jue'er, thank you for your understanding, uncle."When Cai Mao heard this, his heart moved, and he immediately said:"I don't know if you still remember, but Ning'er is already seventeen years old."

"Remember, what happened?"Liu Jue was stunned for a moment. The topic of Cai Mao changed so much that he didn't react for a while. Why did it involve his cousin?

"Ning'er is already seventeen years old and it's time to get married. I plan to betroth her to you."Cai Mao said word for word

"ah?"Liu Jue was really surprised and couldn't help but said:"Uncle, are you kidding me? You want to marry your cousin to me?"

In ancient times, it was normal for cousins to get married. Liu Jue was not surprised because of this, but what was the purpose of Cai Mao doing this?

"Do you think your uncle is joking? Cai

Mao laughed and said,"Actually, I have already discussed this matter with your mother, and she agreed." I've been searching in Xiangyang City for a long time, but I still feel that you are the only one worthy of Ning'er."

Actually, Cai Mao did this as a way of showing good will. As he said before, he didn't want to make the relationship with Liu Jue too bad.

Even if he planned to fall to Cao Cao's side, before Cao Cao went south, he had to fight with Liu Jue. It is very necessary for Liu Jue to handle the relationship well.

Liu Jue is different from Liu Qi and Liu Cong. Liu Jue holds military power and has the appearance of a hero. Although Cai Hao is also in a high and powerful position, if he wants to suppress Liu Jue If so, he may not necessarily be able to suppress it.

If the relationship between the two parties is too bad, then both sides will suffer.

This is not what Cai Hao wants. Cai Hao just wants the Cai family to continue, rather than fighting for power.

That's why Cai Hao made the decision, In addition to promising his daughter to Liu Jue, he also had a little thought.

Just like what many clans did at this time, they sent outstanding talents from their own clan to assist different princes. No matter which side wins, It is a good thing for the clan.

This is called multiple insurance, and Cai Mao did the same. He was partial to Cao Cao in his heart, but he promised his daughter to Liu Jue, so no one would be offended.

Liu Jue also understood After seeing what Cai Mao did, he couldn't help but feel funny in his heart, and said:"Uncle, I'm already married, are you really willing to let your cousin come over? Cai

Mao laughed and said:"In the near future, you will be the lord of Jingzhou. It is not a grievance for Ning'er to marry you!" Besides, you cousins, I believe you will be good to her.

Liu Jue smiled hoarsely and said,"In that case, it's up to you, uncle, to make the decision.""
