The night was quiet, and the river was quiet.

"General, I just found out that the Jiangdong camp has been empty!"

But after dawn, the scouts came to report, which made Cai Mao's brows twist up.

"They believed it!"

Huang Zu's face was filled with a bitter smile.

"Idiot!"

Cai Mao took the case: "A bunch of stupid things! ”

At this time, the division of troops, didn't it give enough opportunities to the herdsmen on the opposite side, with their main force in Jingzhou, they might not be able to fight with the main force of the herdsmen to the end, and if they really fought, eighty percent of the troops would be defeated.

Coupled with today's morale, it is even more difficult to fight.

Jiang Dong admitted it first, so he hung them up, what a bunch of bastards.

"They're not stupid!"

Huang Zu said: "It's us stupid, because no matter whether the news is true or not, the increase in troops on the opposite side is a real thing, Jiangdong has lost the hope of attacking Yizhou, and staying on the battlefield in Jingzhou at this time has no benefit from them, do you think they are still willing?" ”

"Jiangdong is definitely not the choice of allies!"

Cai Mao said helplessly.

"We can't stay on this battlefield, the offensive and defensive positions have changed, the herdsmen have to take the initiative to attack, even if our army relies on the river, it may not be able to hold it!"

Huang Zu said.

"The spies who went to Jiangxia to inquire about the news, did they come back?" What Cai Mao can't wait for the most is to know the truth of those news, and the experience of the Jiangxia Battle, which is more conducive to his judgment.

"How can it be so fast!"

"Then prepare to withdraw!"

Cai Mao said: "Withdraw to Jingzhou City first!" ”

"The eldest prince is in Jingzhou City!"

"It is precisely because the eldest prince is in Jingzhou City that we have a reason to withdraw, even if the lord ......" Cai Mao slowed down and said: "I mean the worst preparation, even if Jiangxia is really breached, the lord has become a prisoner, and even has died in battle, we must have a name to gain a foothold in Jingzhou!" ”

"I think that we should contact Wen Ping and Zhang Yun first, and with the support of their soldiers, we will have a chance, even if we can't hold Jingzhou City, there is still hope of going south to Changsha and separating Jingnan!" Huang Zu smiled bitterly: "To be honest, I can't see any hope anymore, especially as soon as Jiangdong withdraws its troops, we will be targeted by everyone, and our morale is so low that we can't give full play to the combat effectiveness of fifty percent of the soldiers, and I can't fight this battle at all!" ”

"How could I not be!"

Cai Mao let out a long sigh.

The situation is changing too fast.

Even if he is a famous general, he can't get anything back.

Jiangxia's news, if it is true, then the herdsmen's seizure of Jingzhou is already an undoubted thing, and when the time comes, these lost dogs, will either die on the battlefield or surrender, and even surrender may not be acceptable.

After all, after fighting for so many years, they can't count how much blood of the Minghou Mansion in their hands, and they almost became a feud.

…………………………

………………

Wenpin's main force, after the defeat, was very demoralized, but under Liu Biao's forcible order, he still chose to pull out the camp and go north, preparing to join Deng Long's main force in Xiangyang.

But they didn't successfully join Deng Long.

missed the time and place of the rendezvous, and failed to find the location of Deng Long's main force.

Therefore, Wenpin led the army first and went north to Yicheng.

Yicheng is the southern gate of Xiangyang County.

If this gate is broken, Xiangyang will become very vulnerable, and as long as Xiangyang's troops are insufficient, Xiangyang will be easily pried open.

But at this time, the overwhelming news came.

"Impossible!" Wen Ping was shouting: "This is fake, it must be fake, it is the shepherd army who has long spread rumors, they are spreading rumors, intending to demagogue people's hearts and shake the hearts of our army, you can't believe it!" ”

This news came too suddenly.

Suddenly, he couldn't accept it.

He couldn't believe it, and he couldn't believe it.

Jiangxia, why was he suddenly broken by the pastoral army, the dignified lord of Jingzhou has been reduced to a prisoner, so Jingzhou, what is there any hope.

"General, this news has come back from Jiangxia, and it ......"

A lieutenant stepped forward, trying to tell.

"Click!"

Wen Ping was extremely ruthless, and directly cut off his head, and blood splattered three feet.

"I said it was fake!"

He said ruthlessly.

"Fake!"

"This must be fake news!"

The generals felt a chill in their hearts, and hurriedly flattered them, for fear that Wen Ping would also cut off his own with a knife.

"Pass my military order, continue to march, the whole army accelerates, within two days, I will attack Yicheng!"

He took a deep breath and said gloomily.

At this time, he knew very well that the morale of the army would be turbulent, and the only way was not to give them time and space to think, and to pull them directly to the battlefield, and when they were fighting, it was the purest fragment.

"No!"

The generals have just been shocked by him with a human head, at this time, nothing can be said, can only let him speak, what he says, how to do, but whether the heart is so calm, it is difficult to say.

………………………………

Zhang Yun 50,000 soldiers and horses, it is difficult to go north, the road in Jingzhou is not very smooth, these years of war, the population has withered, and the gallop road has also suffered serious losses.

At this time, their main force crossed the Yangtze River in the north and entered Huarong Road, and from Huarong Road to the north, they could go straight to Yicheng.

Just march into Yicheng.

can smoothly enter Xiangyang.

They are only five days away from Yicheng.

But at this time, the news of Jiangxia broke out, and Zhang Yun was taken aback, as if the sky had fallen, which made him feel unbearable.

"How so?"

Zhang Yun paced back and forth, holding the secret letter sent by the spies, his eyes gloomy and uncertain.

"General!"

Wei Yan opened the curtain and entered the camp, asking, "When are we going to pull out the camp?" ”

"Rest first!"

Zhang Yun said in a deep voice.

"Did something happen?"

"Wen Chang, come and see!"

"This is ......" Wei Yan looked at the secret letter, his pupils widened, and he let out a shout: "How is it possible?" ”

"I also want to ask, how is it possible!"

Zhang Yun smiled bitterly: "We worked hard to plan a counterattack, to regain the lost territory, and to revive the reputation of Jingzhou, but no one thought that at this time, the pastoral army had already copied our nest, the lord, Kuai Changshi, and more than 100 officials in the state pastoral mansion had all been reduced to prisoners, and even ......."

He didn't dare to say.

"What does the general mean that the lord has died in battle?" Wei Yan swallowed a mouthful of saliva: "If that's the case, then the sky in Jingzhou will fall!" ”

Liu Biao is the day of Jingzhou.

This sentence is not excessive.

No matter how many forces check and balance Liu Biao, but the only one who can make Jingzhou's major strengths, county families, and wealthy squires recognize Liu Biao, and once Liu Biao falls, who can obey whom.

Will Cai Mao be hired?

Will Wenpin serve Cai Mao?

Will Huang Zu still be so peaceful?

Even ...... yourself

Changsha is a treasure land, and now it has 50,000 elite main forces, why should he work hard to stick to Changsha, and he is also the master of one party, and he may not be able to become a big weapon, but he doesn't need to salute people with a little waist.

"I am the closest to Jiangxia, after receiving the news, I have sent hundreds of scouts to Jiangxia to inquire about the news, back and forth, there will be news in two or three days, and the authenticity of the news will be confirmed at that time!"

Zhang Yun said: "We are resting now, at this time, it is better to be still than to be still!" ”

"What about Xiangyang?"

"Who can take care of Xiangyang!" Zhang Yun shook his head: "Saving your life will become a big problem at that time!" ”

Once Liu Biao falls, Jingzhou will be reshuffled.

Once the pastoral army entered Jingzhou.

They will be a group of purged retainers.

………………

Jiang Xia is getting calmer and calmer.

I don't know what method Du Yu used, but he really invited Su Fei out, this is a talent, a talent who has never met a talent, he followed Huang Zu, wronged, and definitely has the ability to take charge of a party's government affairs.

Mu Jing was forced to this point, and he had no other ideas, using Su Fei was his only choice.

However, this move, primarily speaking, is a good move.

Su Fei can stabilize people's hearts, and this alone is the most worthwhile.

As for the future.

When the situation is stabilized, Su Fei is not available, whether he can believe it or not, and then consider it.

After all, once Jingzhou is taken, Jiangxia will be a direct battlefield with Jiangdong, and whether Su Fei can afford it is really a question.

Dungeon.

"Kuai Gong, I'm very aggrieved!" Mu Jing put on a chairman, set up a plan table, and drank and delicacies, just in this dark and damp place, and met with Kuai Liang, the first strategist of Jingzhou.

"Win and lose!"

Kuai Liang and Liu Biao are like-minded, they are both people who pay great attention to appearance, even if they are prisoners, they still tidy up their appearance every day, he is very indifferent, and he does not have too much anger.

"Have you ever wondered why you're here?" Mu Jing asked.

"Don't think about it!"

Kuai Liang said calmly: "Because I want to, I can't think of it!" ”

"If you can't figure it out, don't think about it, it's a good choice!"

Mu Jing said with a smile: "I'll tell you directly, it's not the Huang family, it's not the wealthy family, it's not because of me, it's just because, 10,000 yuan!" ”

"Ten thousand dollars?"

"That's right!"

Mu Jing said: "Huang Jun directly offered a reward for the whole city, 10,000 yuan, buy your news, you want to go straight from the sewer to the moat outside the city, but you were just seen by a boatman, he just recognized you, and just saw the reward, so Liu Biao was caught by me, and in less than two hours, Huang Jun took you, wrong!" ”

"O human heart!"

Kuai Liang sighed, sorrowful and sorrowful.

He is one of the two powerful families in Jingzhou, the head of the Kuai family, holding power, ten thousand gold, power and wealth, everything, thinking about it, is the overall situation of the world, the pen moves, the well-being of the people, but what to do......

But after all, it is Kuai Liang, the first strategist in Jingzhou, and his resilience is very strong, so he will not be easily suppressed by Mu Jing.

He raised his head and stared at Mu Jing: "Ming Hou has done his best, and he is here today, he won't want to ridicule me, a defeated general!" ”

"I'm not a person with a good reputation!"

The corners of Mu Jing's mouth raised a smile, and the evil charm of the smile: "Mocking you, it's nothing, spreading it out, it's nothing more than one more sentence on the body, if you can't tolerate people's measurements, if there are more lice, I'm not afraid to bite, even if I'm here to ridicule you, it's nothing, right!" ”

"Indeed!"

Kuai Liang raised the wine cup and drank the wine in one gulp, the wine entered his throat, and it was hot, which made him cheer up.

"I'm not afraid of poisoning!"

From the time he came in to the present, Kuai Liang didn't touch a drop of wine, he didn't dare to eat any dishes, Mu Jing thought he was afraid of his stomach, but now it seems that he just disdains to drink with himself.

"It's not that I'm not afraid, it's not that I'm afraid!" Kuai Liang was frank: "Life and death have already been in the mind of Minghou, those who should be killed, can't stay, those who should live, Lord Yama can't take them away, why be afraid!" ”

"Are you so smart that you can think of the situation out there?" Mu Jing asked.

"You can guess!"

"Then guess what, I'd like to hear it!"

"Did Sun Wentai suffer a loss?" Kuai Liang squinted, his eyes were like blades, very sharp, staring at Mu Jing, and said gloomily.

"You know again?"

"It's not hard to guess!"

Kuai Liang sneered: "Your actions in the south, so secret, even if we have not found the scouts we arranged in Nanyang Xiangyang, it must have taken a lot of effort, if you want to say that you want to seize Jiangxia, in fact, you should make a big show, at least after entering Jiangxia, you should raise the flag and deter Jingzhou, so as to reduce the battle, so that all parties will not guess, the majesty is established, the first battle to level Jiangxia, what a majesty, then all the departments in Jingzhou will have a sense of fear for you, which is more convenient, you establish prestige in Jingzhou, and recover all the soldiers and horses in Jingzhou!" ”

"But when you enter Jiangxia, you are as secretive as ever, you rain on Anlu and sneak attack on Xiling, it is nothing more than to hide all the news tightly, then your purpose is not just the lord!"

"The herdsman has suffered such a big loss in Jiangdong, how can he not say anything at all!"

"Sun Wentai's heart to win Jingzhou is strong, Jiangxia is an opportunity for him, winning Jiangxia will stabilize the foundation for him to enter Jingzhou, and we have a deal with Jiangdong, Jiangxia has been traded out from a certain level, he is justifiably stationed in Jiangxia, the opportunity is rare, how can he let it go, so his mood is urgent, the more urgent, the easier it is to be lured by you!"

"He's definitely at a loss!"

Kuai Liang's analysis is the head, although there are some suspicions of hindsight, but it is very rare to be able to feel the regulations so clearly, and he is worthy of being Liu Biao's first strategist, and he has some ability.

"After a battle, I almost killed him, but Jiangdong has many talents, countless diehards, under his Sun Wentai, there is really no shortage of heroic and loyal people, and finally let him escape, I don't know if he dies or not, even if he doesn't die, he will have half his life, and if he wants to enter Jiangxia, he doesn't have this ability!"

Mu Jing said.

Bang Bang Bang !!!

Kuai Liang applauded: "Then congratulations to the Marquis of Ming, who cleared the last scourge of unifying Jingzhou, Jingzhou, no one can be the pace of the Marquis of Ming!" ”

"Jingzhou still has a main force!"

Mu Jing squinted, his eyes flickered, sometimes bright, sometimes dark: "Cai Mao, Huang Zu, Wen Ping, Zhang Yun, there are all armies under your command, you are still preparing for the worst, send Liu Biao's eldest son Liu Qi out in advance, I want Jingzhou, it's not so easy!" ”

"Liu Qi is young, it is difficult to control the overall situation, a plate of scattered sand, it is difficult to become a big tool!"

Kuai Liang said: "Once the lord dies, Jingzhou will not return!" ”

He sees through it.

"I didn't say I had killed Liu Biao!"

"Kill now, and kill soon, it's the same, sooner or later!"

"Since you see so clearly, what about yourself?" Mu Jing asked jokingly: "Do you think I will kill you?" ”

"Five-five!"

Kuai Liang thought for a while and said: "Whether Minghou will kill me or not, it's nothing more than to see my value, the lord must die, who can't save it, even if Minghou can't bear it, even if Minghou wants to be soft-hearted, he can't do it, not only I want to understand, but the lord must be able to think about it, falling into the hands of Minghou, there is no way to live, but it is a certain ......"

He said in a low voice: "The Kuai family has a bit of weight, when it is not enough to make Minghou soft-hearted, I am a thorn in your eye after all, I am the governor of Jingzhou, the power is too heavy, it means that Liu Biao speaks, living means that there will be waves in Jingzhou, according to reason, you will also kill me, behead the public, to set an example!" ”

"But it's not absolute!"

"If you can help Ming Hou lead Jingzhou and take the land of Jingzhou with the least number of troops, maybe Ming Hou will give me a way to live for the sake of my value, right?"

When Mu Jing heard this, he smiled: "Do you want this way of living?" ”
