Although Tian Kai was the governor of Qingzhou, he could barely control Le 'an County and Qi County.
The other four counties were basically all in charge of military affairs.
Nominally, they would obey Tian Kai's orders, but in the face of war, other than the Beihai Prefecture Governor Kong Rong who would send troops to help, the rest would only obey on the surface.
In addition, the Yellow Turban soldiers in Qingzhou were wreaking havoc. Cao Cao had taken another 300,000 Yellow Turban soldiers to Yanzhou, and the young and strong among them had been selected by Cao Cao to form an army.
This resulted in Tian Kai not having any elite soldiers even though he had Qingzhou.
A mere Wang Zhao under Yuan Tan could suppress Tian Kai!
And Wang Zhao.
Among the generals under Yuan Shao, they were all completely not ranked!
It was also because of this.
Yuan Shao would let his eldest son Yuan Tan attack Qingzhou.
Because…
Qingzhou was like a gift to Yuan Tan. It was too easy to conquer!
Yuan Shao didn't even need to dispatch the Four Court Pillars, and he didn't even assign generals like Jiang Yiqu and Chunyu Qiong to Yuan Tan.
He only allocated Wang Zhao, Cen Bi, Peng An, and Guan Tong to Yuan Tan.
It could be seen that in Yuan Shao's heart.
Tian Kai was such a good-for-nothing!
And reality proved it.
Tian Kai was indeed useless!
Even with Yuan Tan's army formation, they could be suppressed!
Tian Kai welcomed Liu Bei into Linzi City and hosted a banquet.
Tian Kai raised his wine cup and said respectfully," Liu Bei, we haven't seen each other for months since the meeting in Xuzhou. Now that you've come to Linzi, don't stand on ceremony. Just treat it as your home!"”
At this moment, Tian Kai already understood why Tao Qian would give way to Xu Zhou.
Tao Qian couldn't defend Xuzhou, so he had to give Xuzhou to Liu Bei and let Liu Bei face Cao Cao's anger.
Similarly.
At this moment, Tian Kai also had the intention to let Qing Zhou go.
He was too aggrieved as the governor of Qingzhou!
There are no soldiers in the army, no generals in the general.
Every time there was a war, he had to fight himself!
None of his subordinates could be used!
When Liu Bei heard this, he immediately felt that there was hope!
He volunteered to come to Qingzhou because he wanted Qingzhou.
Liu Bei laughed and returned the gesture." Tian Shijun, you've treated me with great hospitality. If I were to be polite, it would seem too hypocritical!"”
After three rounds of wine.
Liu Bei suddenly sighed.
"Xuande, is it because the wine is not good and the dishes are not fragrant?" Tian Kai asked curiously. Whatever Xuande wants to eat, I will prepare it immediately!”
Liu Bei wept,"Tian Shijun, I've made a fool of myself!" I'm just sighing. I'm here to drink good wine and eat good meat, but my third brother will never be able to eat it!”
"Xuande, I wanted to ask you just now. Why isn't your third brother with you?" Tian Kai was shocked.”
Because Tian Kai was tired of dealing with Yuan Tan, he only knew that Tao Qian had abdicated to Xu Xiao and did not know that Zhang Fei was already dead.
Liu Bei suddenly became angry and slammed the table.""I hate that Xu Xiao. He stole my beloved concubine, killed my third brother, and ruined my reputation. Now, he has occupied Xu Prefecture and is the governor of Xu Prefecture!”
"Is there such a twist in this?" Tian Kai was shocked. I only know that you suddenly left Xuzhou and Tao Qian gave up his position to the county magistrate of Pei County. I was surprised that you refused Tao Qian's kindness!”
Liu Bei's tone was sorrowful and concise as he explained the matter of Xiao Pei to Tian Kai.
Tian Kai was furious when he heard that." I didn't expect Xu Xiao to be so cruel and heartless. I also heard that after Xu Xiao became the governor of Xu Prefecture, he beheaded Xiapi State's Prime Minister, Zuo Rong, Guangling Prefecture Governor, Cavalry Commandant Zang Ba, and Cavalry Commandant Sun Guan. I believe they were also charged with plundering!”
"Don't worry, Liu Bei. If you want revenge, all of Qingzhou can help Liu Bei!”
When Liu Bei heard this, he secretly wiped away his tears.
There's a chance!
"Tian Shijun, I don't quite understand what you mean."”
Tian Kai stood up and came in front of Liu Bei. He bowed and said,"Xuande, you are the descendant of King Jing of Zhongshan, the great-great-grandson of His Excellency Hanjing. Of course, Tao Qian gave Xuzhou to you because of your benevolence and righteousness.”
"Although I, Tian Kai, am the governor of Qingzhou, I don't have the ability to rule over Qingzhou.”
"This time, when Yuan Tan invaded Qingzhou, apart from the Beihai Prefecture Governor, Kong Rong, who sent people to assist him, the rest of the mayors were all secretly disobedient!”
"Xuande, I'm suffering!"
Tian Kai let out a long sigh and immediately said in a clear voice,"Liu Bei, you are a capable person. If you are willing to be the governor of Qingzhou, Tian Kai is willing to be a pawn!”
Liu Bei was overjoyed.
As expected.
I, Liu Bei, am a benevolent person. I haven't even spoken yet, and Tian Kai has already sent me to Qingzhou!
Although Liu Bei really wanted it.
But on the surface, he still had to reject it."Envoy Tian, you can't do that. I'm here to help you resist Yuan Tan. If I let Qingzhou go, wouldn't people say that I, Liu Bei, am taking advantage of others?”
Tian Kai saw Liu Bei refuse and hurriedly said,""Xuande, that was then and that is now. Now that Qingzhou is plagued by internal and external troubles, if Xuande refuses, Qingzhou will probably not belong to me, Tian Kai. At that time, even if Xuande wants it, I won't be able to give it up!”
Seeing this, Guan Yu stood up and advised,"Big brother! Tian Shijun had good intentions, but the matter was urgent!”
"This-"
Liu Bei pretended to hesitate.
After a long time.
Liu Bei sighed." Tian Shijun, I only wanted to help you resist Yuan Tan. I don't want Qingzhou." Forget it, when Qingzhou's internal and external troubles are settled, I will definitely return Qingzhou to you!”
Tian Kai was overjoyed and immediately acknowledged Liu Bei as his master. At the same time, he sent a message to all the prefectures about the Qingzhou governor being given to Liu Bei!
Liu Bei took over the post of governor of Qingzhou.
He did not hesitate.
"Second brother!"
"Yes!"
"Yuan Tan has been defeated for a while and will definitely come back to Linzi. You will immediately lead the army to the west and expel Yuan Tan!”
"Yes!"
"Zilong!"
"Yes!"
"Of the six prefectures of Qingzhou, Chief Yun is going to the west to conquer the Ji Nation. Kong Rong of the North Sea is my old friend, so I will write a letter of divorce. However, Donglai Prefecture and Chengyang Prefecture have disobeyed my orders. I will give you five thousand soldiers to immediately attack Donglai Prefecture and Chengyang Prefecture. If they refuse to obey, kill them without mercy!”
"Yes!"
