Zhang Liao persuaded Gan Ning to stay, and Gan Ning persuaded Su Fei in turn, and both of them evaporated in the world in the name of cheating death.

The news of the annihilation of the entire army was spread by Zhang Liao who let go of a sailor who was holding the boat and returned to Jiangxia.

After Huang Zu learned the news that Huang Jie was beheaded and Gan Ning, Su Fei and others were all killed in battle, he was very angry and immediately gathered tens of thousands of soldiers and horses to come to Xunyang to find Zhang Liao for revenge.

But after thinking about it, Huang Zu had no strong generals, so he had to repair a letter and send someone to Xiangyang, saying that Huang Jie, Gan Ning, Su Fei and others pursued to the Xunyang territory in order to quell the rebellion of Zhang Wu and Chen Sun, and were beheaded by Zhang Liao, and the whole army was wiped out, and begged Liu Biao to send a large army to Xingshi to ask for guilt.

After Liu Biao read Huang Zu's letter, he was annoyed and angry, saying that Zhang Yan was too deceitful, and when he was about to gather his troops and horses, someone suddenly reported that the Son of Heaven had sent a messenger to arrive, and it was the father-in-law of the Son of Heaven.

Liu Biao was afraid of face, so he met with Fu Wan, and without waiting for Fu Wan to speak, he took the lead and talked about the battle of Xunyang straight to the point, and there was a sense of reproach in his tone.

He was also confused, he came to Xiangyang and did not take the Lujiang River, but took Runan into Nanyang, and then arrived in Xiangyang. However, after listening to Liu Biao's words, he also knew the news that Liu Biao's soldiers and horses were wiped out in Xunyang.

So, after Fu Wan said this matter, he gave a different statement, telling Liu Biao the ins and outs of the matter.

After Liu Biao heard this, he only felt that his face was gloomy, from the very beginning, it was Huang Zu's son Huang Jie who did not do it right, and entered the Xunyang realm for the first time. It's just a matter of not greeting the local officials. Instead, he killed people and killed red eyes. Even Zhang Yan's army and officials were killed, and this is why Zhang Liao led the army to kill Huang Shot.

After knowing the ins and outs, Liu Biao immediately apologized to Fu Wan, and sent someone to escort a batch of gold, silver and jewelry as a thank you gift, so that Fu Wan could take it back.

After sending him away, Liu Biao sent someone to reproach Huang Zu and asked Huang Zu not to cause trouble for him anymore, otherwise. He was not polite to Huang Zu. Moreover, in the matter of the Battle of Xunyang, there were casualties on both sides, and Huang Zu was not allowed to pursue it anymore.

After Huang Zu learned of Liu Biao's idea, he was very angry, but after all, Liu Biao was his regular boss, although the two were also old friends, but Huang Zu had the pain of losing his son, and thought that Liu Biao would have mercy on him, but he didn't want Liu Biao to not have mercy, but sent someone to punish him.

Huang Zu held a grudge against Liu Biao for a while. also secretly accumulated liliang and prepared to personally lead the army. Go to Xunyang and find Zhang Liao for revenge.

At this time, someone came to tell Huang Zu that Gan Ning and Su Fei's families all disappeared overnight, Huang Zu was a suspicious person, as soon as he heard such a thing, he immediately thought that Gan Ning and Su Fei should still be alive, and thought that it would be Gan Ning and Su Fei who secretly communicated with Zhang Liao, so that his son Huang Zhu was beheaded.

Thinking of this, Huang Zu immediately sent people all over the city to search for Gan Ning and Su Fei's families, but when his subordinates learned that Gan Ning and Su Fei's families had been taken away and went down the river on a big boat, he sent troops to pursue, advancing by land and water, and making sure to intercept Gan Ning and Su Fei's families.

Huang Zu personally led the team, chased all the way, and finally caught up with the big boat in the waters of Qichun County, and took people on the boat to search around, but it made him cry and laugh.

It is true that two families got on the boat in Xiling City, the county capital of Jiangxia County, but these two families are not the families of Gan Ning and Su Fei, but other families.

Huang Zu saw that it was not Gan Ning and Su Fei's family who he was chasing so hard, so he gave up, but his resentment could not be eliminated, and in a fit of anger, he ordered all the people on the boat to be killed, leaving no one behind, and then threw the corpse into the river to feed the fish.

Huang Zu was annoyed with the family members who lost Gan Ning and Su Fei, and killed them together with the scouts who reported to him, and returned to Xiling City with an extremely unhappy mood, and in order to vent his inner anger, he even sent someone to raid the two families of Gan Ning and Su Fei.

As a result, Huang Zu accidentally found a letter when he searched his home, which was left to Huang Zu and was written by Gan Ning himself, roughly thanking Huang Zu for his kindness, and stating that Huang Shot did not die because of them, but after Huang Shot died, they surrendered.

No matter how Gan Ning explained in the letter, Huang Zu didn't believe it after all, and scolded Gan Ning and Su Fei for being unrighteous villains, but the matter has come to this point, no matter how much he abuses, he can't make up for it.

So, Huang Zu simply sent a large army to garrison Xia Pheasant, and secretly contacted Liu Bei, the governor of Jingnan, and Nanyang guarded Zhang Xiu, preparing to join forces to attack Zhang Yan.

The envoys went to Jingnan and Nanyang respectively, and Liu Bei, the governor of Jingnan, was stationed in Changsha, and after more than three years, the four counties of Jingnan had been governed in an orderly manner, and the barbarians were appeased outside, and the people were kept inside, and the army was trained secretly, and there were already small achievements.

Liu Bei suddenly received Huang Zu's letter, and after reading it, he laughed it off, and immediately wrote back to Huang Zu, informing Huang Zu to be patient for the time being, and also told a story about Gou Jian lying on his back and hiding his courage, euphemistically rejected Huang Zu's request, and continued to run his four counties in Jingnan with peace of mind.

Another envoy of Huang Zu went to Wancheng in Nanyang County, saw Zhang Xiu, and also handed over a letter, but Zhang Xiu did not have any friendship with Huang Zu, and refused to send troops on the grounds that he obeyed Liu Biao's orders.

After the two envoys returned to Xiling City, Huang Zu learned that Liu Bei and Zhang Xiu were unwilling to send troops to help, so he became angry and angrily ordered a large-scale recruitment of soldiers, but all men who had reached the age of fifteen in Jiangxia had to join the army.

For a time, Huang Zu set off a wave of conscription in Jiangxia, which made the people's resentment boiling, and the people also had many intentions of resisting.

However, Huang Zu sent troops to suppress it, slaughtering three villages one after another, making the people in Jiangxia panic, and they didn't dare to oppose anymore, so they obediently went to become soldiers.

For a time, Huang Zu recruited more than 100,000 new soldiers in Jiangxia, but Huang Zu's arsenal did not have so many weapons, only enough to fill a team of 20,000 people, and the rest were either holding hoes, sickles and other tools, or holding wooden sticks, all of which were stuffed in the team by Huang Zu.

But Huang Zu wanted revenge, and he didn't care about these, plus the original 50,000 regular troops, a total of 200,000 people, advanced by land and water, and went to Lujiang to avenge his son Huang Jie.

The news soon spread to Pengcheng, Zhang Yan was not light, and immediately made a decision, personally took command, and led Zhao Yun, a guard of 10,000 people, with Sili Captain Jia Xu as the military division, Huya General Zhang Liao, Dangkou General Gao Shun as the left and right vanguard, Lujiang Taishou Lu Su as the staff officer, ready to fight to the death with Huang Zu in Xunyang.

Zhang Liao and Gao Shun's soldiers and horses have not left since they were transferred to Lujiang last time, Zhang Liao is stationed on the bank of the Yangtze River in Xunyang, Gao Shun is stationed near Xunyang City, and Lujiang Taishou Lusu has not left, but is appeasing the newly recruited Zhang Wu, Chen Sun, Gan Ning, Su Fei and others.

Zhang Yan's order came, and Zhang Liao and Gao Shun joined forces on the shore, ready to defend at all times, and prepared to meet Huang Zu.

In the big camp by the riverside, Zhang Liao, Gao Shun, Lu Su, Gan Ning, Su Fei, Zhang Wu, Chen Sun and others are gathered in the big tent, according to the news of the scouts, Huang Zu's army has arrived in Xiapheasant, and the army has also arrived in Qichun, 200,000 troops, mighty killing, it is estimated that Xunyang will be launched tomorrow.

On the other hand, the scouts also found out that Huang Zu's main army was only 50,000 people, the rest of the new recruits were a rabble, only 20,000 people had weapons, and the rest were indiscriminate.

So, everyone discussed together, and Zuihou took Lu Su's opinion and lured the enemy deeper.

Subsequently, everyone launched a plan on this strategy, Lu Su as a staff officer, set a strategy, distributed the troops, and sent Zhang Wu and Chen Sun to be bait, introduce Huang Zu into the ambush circle, and then gather superior forces to eliminate Huang Zu as the primary task.

As long as Huang Zu dies and his subordinates are leaderless, they will fall into chaos, and at that time, the army will rush out again, and they can win this battle.

Lu Su's strategy was very simple, and the task was also very clear, and after everyone heard it, they all nodded in agreement.

Since Zhang Wu and Chen Sun surrendered, they had already made a small contribution last time, and this time they were also full of enthusiasm and were ready to make another contribution.

Gan Ning and Su Fei's enthusiasm is also very high, although the two of them are Huang Zu's generals, they have not been reused, so they have always been unhappy, and Huang Zu has been very strict with them.

In addition, Zhang Liao and Gao Shun's subordinates were also agitated, they were originally Yuan Shu's army, which was absorbed by Zhang Liao and Gao Shun, and only 20,000 people were selected from the nearly 100,000 army, and after years of training, the morale was high, not to mention, they were very eager for war.

After everyone finished discussing, they began to execute jihua, Zhang Wu and Chen Sun still drove the light boat, picked out the five hundred dead soldiers of the headquarters, and prepared to do a big job tomorrow.

After Zhang Liao returned to the barracks, he also began to plan, although Gan Ning and Su Fei surrendered, they have not had military merits, and temporarily served as Sima of other departments in Zhang Liao's army, however, the position is there, but there is no soldier under him, he is a bare-bones commander, this time the big war is also very expected, hoping to kill Huang Zu in exchange for military merits.

When Gao Shun returned to the camp, he made some arrangements, and the morale of the soldiers was high, and they all geared up.

And Lu Meng, who was removed from the post of military Sima last time for killing Mi Fang by mistake, was just an ordinary soldier at this time, but in the army, his fellow villagers still regarded Lu Meng as the military commander, so they still looked forward to Lu Meng's horse. Moreover, the position of the military commander of his battalion is also Lü Meng's little brother, so as soon as he returned to the barracks, he revealed the news of tomorrow's war to Lü Meng.

Lu Meng was full of energy, eager to try, ready to kill a few more people tomorrow, earn some military merits, and still be his own military commander. (To be continued......)
