547 Jingzhou changed hands(19)
After Zhang Fei heard Fu Xun's words, he actually laughed and said to Fu Xun: "There are three kinds of people that I respect the most, one is filial piety, the other is a person with backbone, and the third is a person who is righteous. You happen to be the second type of person, the person with backbone. So, I'm not going to kill you. However, I won't let you go back, I will leave you in Linyuan and let you live under my nose, if I let you go, you will continue to help Liu Qi deal with me, this is to let the tiger return to the mountain, the gains outweigh the losses. Although the period of time you have been the Taishou of Wuling is not long, you have finally done a lot of good things for the people, so you should not die. ”
Fu Xun said: "Let me live under your nose, it is better to kill me." ”
"Ants are greedy for life, let alone humans? If you really want to die, you can kill yourself, hang yourself, jump into a river, jump off a cliff, there are many ways to want to die, it depends on how you want to die. Moreover, if you want to die, you should die far away, and don't let people think that I killed you. Zhang Fei said.
Fu Xun was so angry by Zhang Fei's words that he couldn't speak, his cheeks bulged, but he didn't know what to say. But after savoring it carefully, Zhang Fei's words are not rough, and what he said is also very reasonable, if you want to die, you can die, why bother others.
In fact, people live well, who wants to die all day long. The reason why Fu Xun said this was just to show his backbone, who would have thought that Zhang Fei's words would directly choke him to death here, making him speechless for a moment.
Xiang Lang saw that the atmosphere was not good, so he hurriedly came out of the round, first persuaded Zhang Fei, and then persuaded Fu Xun. Then he took Fu Xun out of the palace hall. According to Zhang Fei's instructions. Arrange Fu Xun to live in a guest room.
Fu Xun was also helpless, after all, he was a prisoner, and it was already very good to be able to get such preferential treatment. It's a pity that he is too ignorant of current affairs, which made Zhang Fei angry, and he also angered Xiang Lang with his words.
After Xiang Lang arranged Fu Xun, he returned to his room. A moment later, Zhang Fei came to Xiang Lang's room in person. After the two of them sat down, Zhang Fei asked: "The plan that Mr. said before, my second brother and I have already discussed it, and we both think that Mr. 's plan is very good, and we are ready to do what Mr. said." It's a pity that both of us brothers are martial artists, and we know too little about strategy, and we need a person like Mr. to be a military advisor, I wonder if Mr. Lu Dao is intentional? ”
"I'm just a talent of a hundred miles, and I can only govern the people within a hundred miles. If I want to be a military advisor, I'm afraid I won't be able to take on this important responsibility. And I didn't have a plan. The ability to win a thousand miles, the position of a military advisor, the general should ask another master. Xiang Lang said directly.
Zhang Fei said: "Sir, you are not a military advisor, where can I go to find a military advisor?" In my eyes, Mr. is the best military advisor. ”
Xiang Lang smiled: "General, I'm just a frog at the bottom of the well, not a military advisor." But I can recommend a general who is certainly up to the task. ”
"Who?" Zhang Fei hurriedly asked.
"This person's surname is Zheng, the word is filial piety, originally from Fufeng County, and later because of the famine in Guanzhong, he was forced to live in Yizhou, so he stayed in Yizhou, and is now Liu Zhang's subordinate. This talent is knowledgeable, resourceful, is a rare talent, but it is a pity that Yizhou Mu Liu Zhang is not very good at employing people, such a talent, even did not receive reuse, is currently only a small county official in Fuling County, Ba County, if the general can invite this person to Jingnan, I dare to guarantee that if the general wants to achieve great things in the future, he will be like a tiger with wings. Xiang Lang said.
After listening to Xiang Lang's words, Zhang Fei looked thoughtful, and after a while, he asked, "Sir, how is the Fa Zheng Bi Mr." ”
Xiang Lang said: "I can't compare with Fazheng at all, if I have to compare, my talent is like the light emitted by fireflies, and Fazheng's talent is like the light emitted by the bright moon hanging in the sky in the night sky." ”
Zhang Fei couldn't help frowning and asked, "If Fa Zheng is really such a person, then why doesn't Liu Zhang use it?" Also, how did the gentleman get acquainted? ”
Xiang Lang said: "I met Fa Zheng in Xiangyang, and when Fa Zheng was sent by Liu Zhang to Jingzhou, I received him. At that time, after Fa Zheng met Liu Biao, he said to me privately that Liu Biao seemed to be smart, but in fact he was confused, and he liked to listen to slander, and he was not a master, so he persuaded me to leave Liu Biao, so as not to suffer accidents after a long time. At that time, I only thought that Fa was deliberately using a divisive tactic, so I ignored him. But less than three months after Fazheng left, my Xiang family was devastated. Now that I think about it, I'm still blaming Wei Lu for not obeying the Fazheng at that time, and leaving Liu Biao early, so that those things won't happen to my Xiangjia again......"
When he said this, Xiang Lang's eyes were moist, and his voice was a little infarcted. Xiang Lang, who realized that he was off topic, hurriedly wiped his tears with his hands, calmed down a little, and then continued: "Later, I wrote to Fa Zheng, regretting that I didn't listen to him and left Liu Biao, so that it caused the current family to be ruined. I hope to be able to ask Fa Zheng to recommend him to go to Yizhou to be Liu Zhang's subordinate. However, Fa Zheng rejected the recommendation in his reply, and said that Liu Zhang is not a master, and he does not know how to use people, he is a mediocre and incompetent master, and he does not recommend me to go. In the letter, Fa Zheng revealed his helplessness, preferring to urgently find a master to give full play to his own talents, and I still remember the words that I don't meet with talents. Later, we lost contact, and as for the current situation of Fazheng, I also asked someone to inquire about it. ”
After Zhang Fei listened, he said to Xiang Lang: "Since this is the case, then I will send someone to Fuling to invite Fa Zheng to come to Jingnan." ”
"No, it's better for the general to go in person, so that he can show sincerity, and show the general's courtesy and thirst for talent." Xiang Langdao.
Zhang Fei said: "It's okay to go in person, it's a pity that Wuling County has just been pacified, and once I leave, I'm afraid that Wuling and Lingling will make a mess." ”
"As long as you use people properly, there will be no chaos. The general can appoint Liu Du as the Lingling Taishou and Jin Xuan as the Wuling Taishou, and let them temporarily govern the affairs of their own territory. Then ask the three generals Tan Xiong, Pan Zhang, and Ling Cao to stay with the army for a while, and when the general returns, it will not be too late for them to leave. In this way, there will be no chaos in Wuling and Lingling. Xiang Lang said.
Zhang Fei said: "Okay, then I'll listen to Mr., but this time I go to Fuling, Mr. wants to go with me." ”
"It's incumbent!"
Zhang Fei, at Xiang Lang's suggestion, began to arrange everything, and then officially left Linyuan City the next day, and Xiang Lang and the two of them, dressed up as ordinary people, went to Fuling, and asked Fa Zheng to come to Jingnan as a military advisor.
……
Nanjun is the closest county to the four counties of Jingnan, and it is also the place where Jingzhou's money and grain are widely gathered, and the news that Changsha, Guiyang, Lingling, and Wuling were captured by Guan Yu and Zhang Fei led by the army soon spread to Nanjun.
When Huo Jun, the Taishou of Nanjun, heard this, he was immediately shocked, and immediately mobilized troops to station on the main roads from Jingnan to Nanjun, and then reported the news that the four counties of Jingnan were occupied by Guan Yu and Zhang Fei to Sima Yi in Xiangyang.
Now in Jingzhou, everything is presided over by Sima Yi, and Liu Qi is still immersed in the grief of losing his father and cannot extricate himself. Liu Qi ordered the killing of Liu Bei's nine clans, but because of Sima Yi's obstruction, he failed to succeed and was perfunctory by Sima Yi.
At the same time, if it weren't for Liu Qi's order, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei would not have left Jingzhou angrily and went to Sun Quan. When Huo Jun's urgent report arrived in Xiangyang, after Sima Yi saw it, he sighed for a long time, but he didn't expect that he still didn't prevent Guan Yu and Zhang Fei's attack. Moreover, Sima Yi focused all his energy on Jiangxia, and ignored Jingnan's weakness, thus giving Guan Yu and Zhang Fei an opportunity.
However, even if Jingnan sends troops to garrison, with Guan Yu and Zhang Fei's connections in Jingnan, they may not be able to hold it. As soon as the four counties of Jingnan are lost, Jingzhou is equivalent to losing half of the country.
The division of Jingnan and Jingbei is bounded by the Yangtze River, the area south of the Yangtze River is the south of Jingzhou, and the place north of the Yangtze River belongs to the north of Jingzhou, and Jingzhou is thousands of miles wide and spans a great span from north to south, so it is inevitable that there will be some negligence in management.
Fortunately, Huo Jun is a smart person, and he did not spread the news of the loss of the four counties of Jingnan, and blocked the news.
And Sima Yi was also secretly glad that he had chosen Huo Jun to be the Taishou of Nanjun in the first place. If Huo Jun leaked the news, then the entire Jingzhou would fall into a panic.
However, Sima Yi is not worried, although the four counties of Jingnan have been lost, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei may not have the strength to attack the northern part of Jingzhou, at least in two or three months, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei will not. Because Jingzhou's troops are concentrated in Nanjun, Jiangxia, Xiangyang, and Nanyang.
After the loss of Nanyang, Nanjun, Jiangxia and Xiangyang formed a zigzag shape, which is an unbreakable iron triangle. One side is in trouble, and the other two quickly rush to help, with the help of Jingzhou's extensive water network, the navy can shuttle back and forth between the three places, so Sima Yi is not too worried.
However, the loss of the four counties of Jingnan is, in a sense, equivalent to the loss of half of Jingzhou. Therefore, Sima Yi immediately ordered Li Tong to lead the army to the Huarong area, set up checkpoints there, and stationed heavy troops, thinking of trying to block the enemy's northward advance.
Today's Jingzhou, Nanyang was occupied by Zhang Yan, and all the four counties of Jingnan fell into the hands of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei.
But for Sima Yi, if something like this happens, it is also a good propellant, and next, Jingzhou, the land of four wars, is likely to change hands. (To be continued......)
