Sima Yi saw Han Song looking at him with a pair of hot eyes, his eyes were so serious, and he knew that his answer would depend on whether he could turn Han Song into the confidant of the eldest prince, so he must answer well.

After a moment of silence, Sima Yi spoke: "I can't hide it, this is my own idea!" ”

Han Song suddenly daxiao: "Haha...... I knew that the eldest prince had always been very suspicious, how could he come to me easily? If you say that the eldest prince asked you to come, I will kick you out immediately, because you are not honest enough with me, and you can't get my sincerity. Sima Yi, I don't care how you met the eldest prince, and why the eldest prince trusts you so much, but since you can think about the eldest prince and sincerely do things for the eldest prince, it means that you have regarded the eldest prince as a confidant, and you know the current situation of the eldest prince, but you still have to bite the bullet to help the eldest prince, which shows that you are bold. You have such courage at such a young age, which really impresses the old man. Don't worry, my heart has always followed the eldest son, as long as the eldest prince has something, even if he commands, Han Song will go to the soup for the eldest prince, and he will not hesitate to do so! ”

With Han Changshi's words, Zhongda was relieved. In the future, if there is anything wrong with the eldest prince and Zhong Da, I hope that Han Changshi can clearly point it out, so that we will not accidentally fall into the abyss of ten thousand tribulations for a while. Sima Yi bowed.

Han Song stroked his beard and said slowly: "It's easy to say, the old man must do his best to do things for the eldest son." However, if the eldest prince wants to achieve a career, it is far from enough to rely on the old man and you, Jiangxia County. There is no shortage of good people. Xiling Cheng Liu Xian. Gong Cao Deng Xi is a relatively outstanding talent in Jingzhou, but he just missed the opportunity, Zhong Da might as well visit Liu Xian and Deng Xi, and tell Liu Xian and Deng Xi about the eldest son, Liu Xian and Deng Xi will definitely be attached to the eldest prince and driven by the eldest prince! ”

Sima Yi said: "I have just arrived, and I have never met Liu Xian and Deng Xi. Won't it seem a little abrupt to go this time? ”

Han Song thought about it and felt that what Sima Yi said was also very reasonable, so he immediately repaired two letters, handed them to Sima Yi, and said, "Zhongda, you take these two letters to Liu Xian and Deng Xi, as soon as they see my letter, they will understand everything." ”

Sima Yi took the two letters and bowed again: "Thank you Han Changshi." After the matter is completed, the eldest prince will definitely be rewarded! ”

"The old man doesn't ask for any reward. I only hope that the eldest prince can grow up as soon as possible, and it is not in vain that Liu Jingzhou has high hopes for him! When Han Song said this, he suddenly realized that what he said was a little leaky, and immediately changed his words, and said: "It's not early, you go early, go early and return early, don't let the eldest prince wait in a hurry!" ”

What kind of person is Sima Yi, although he is not very well-known, but he is extremely smart, how could he not hear the meaning of Han Song's words? Coupled with his observation of words and expressions, he could probably guess the meaning of Han Song's words.

It's just that Sima Yi didn't publish anything, didn't say anything, just arched his hand towards Han Song, and then left Han Song's mansion directly.

Sima Yi took the two letters given by Han Song, and successively visited Liu Xian and Deng Xi, as soon as he entered Liu Xian and Deng Xi's home, he directly revealed his identity, and then handed Han Song's letter over, without too many words, and without any polite words, when Liu Xian and Deng Xi both read Han Song's letter, they both expressed their willingness to go to the soup for the eldest prince.

So, Sima Yi quickly completed the task, quickly returned to the Taishou Mansion, and fed back the results to Taishou Liu Qi.

When Liu Qi knew that Han Song, Liu Xian, and Deng Xi had been persuaded by Sima Yi, he was overjoyed and had to reward Sima Yi to express his gratitude.

Sima Yi hurriedly shirked the reward, and told Liu Qi that the reason why Liu Xian and Deng Xi were easily persuaded was not because of him, but because of Han Song's merits, and hoped to give the reward to Han Song.

Liu Qi felt very surprised, because all along, he felt that Han Song was sent to spy on him, so he didn't trust Han Song.

At this moment, when he heard Sima Yi say this, he realized that he had misunderstood Han Song.

Then, Sima Yi offered advice to Liu Qi, asking Liu Qi to personally visit Han Song, Liu Xian, and Deng Xi, and told him that this is called Corporal Lixian, which will make Han Song, Liu Xian, and Deng Xi more loyal to him.

After Liu Qi heard this, he nodded as if he was pounding garlic, and then he did what Sima Yi offered, and sure enough, Han Song, Liu Xian, and Deng Xi were moved.

After getting rid of Han Song, Liu Xian, and Deng Xi, Sima Yi then said to Liu Qi: "Eldest prince, now we have our own henchmen, but if we want to gain a firm foothold in Jiangxia and even the entire Jingzhou, we must have military power. Although the eldest prince is nominally Jiangxia Taishou and is ordered to be in charge of the 30,000 sailors stationed in Jiangxia, he has no actual power, because these 30,000 sailors are all Cai Mao's party. Therefore, the eldest prince must find a way to get all the 30,000 sailors into his own hands, and then hold them tightly. ”

Liu Qi said unconfidently: "This ...... I'm afraid it's a bit difficult, right? These 30,000 sailors are all Cai Mao's subordinates, how can they listen to me? ”

Sima Yi smiled and said, "The eldest prince doesn't have to worry, it's man-made." Although these 30,000 sailors are Cai Mao's subordinates, they were in the past, and now, they are the subordinates of the eldest prince. And among the 30,000 sailors, I don't believe that all of them are Cai Mao's henchmen. In my opinion, among the 30,000 water army, there must be many people who are dissatisfied with Cai Mao's one-handed cover of the sky and forming a party for personal gain, we can find an opportunity to suppress Cai's henchmen and generals, and re-select some authoritative people in the army to be officers, and take charge of these 30,000 water army for the eldest prince! ”

Liu Qi said: "Zhongda, do you have any good ideas?" ”

Sima Yi nodded, then attached it to Liu Qi's ear, whispered some words, Liu Qi listened, a smile appeared on his face, and said loudly: "Zhongda, this plan of yours is really wonderful, let's implement it quickly!" ”

"No hurry! Before I start to use the plan, there are some most basic things to do, the eldest prince, I want to take a leave of absence for five days, and after five days, the eldest prince can do what I said, and the 30,000 sailors will naturally become the subordinates of the eldest prince! Sima Yi said.

Liu Qi said excitedly: "Okay, I'll listen to you." It's just, where are you going to go in these five days? ”

"Well, it's a secret. In short, in five days, the eldest prince will meet me again, and by that time, the eldest prince will be the commander of the 30,000 naval army! "Sima Yi sells the way of Guanzi.

Liu Qi no longer asked, Sima Yi's arrival was an extremely lucky thing for him, he never thought that God would favor him so much, and when he was the most embarrassed in his life, he actually brought Sima Yi to his side.

That night, Sima Yi packed his bags, went to the naval camp on the bank of the Yangtze River alone.

The Jingzhou Naval Army, with a total of 80,000 people, were all elite divisions of Jingzhou's hundred battles, which were originally under the control of Cai Mao, the governor of the capital, and the Hanshui generation stationed in Xiangyang was used to defend Xiangyang. But since Huang Zu died in battle, the army was almost completely annihilated, and Jiangxia was the gateway to the east of Jingzhou, so it had to rely on heavy troops to defend.

After Sun Ce captured Chaisang, Liu Biao paid more attention to the defense of Jiangxia, for fear that Sun Ce would take revenge on his father, so he led the army to take advantage of the situation and kill Jiangxia.

Therefore, while appointing Liu Qi as the Taishou of Jiangxia, Liu Biao mobilized 30,000 sailors to garrison Jiangxia, firstly, for the purpose of defending against foreign enemies, and secondly, he also wanted to let these 30,000 troops belong to Liu Qi and indirectly weaken Cai Mao's shili.

Cai Mao was naturally very clear about Liu Biao's actions, so he specially sent his clan brothers Cai Qing and Cai Zhu to serve as the commanders of the 30,000 army, and all the officers above the middle level were Cai Mao's henchmen, in order to prevent Liu Qi from usurping the command of the 30,000 army.

Cai Qing and Cai Zhu are Cai Mao's cousins, serving as General Fubo and General Lou Chuan respectively, and the two led the army to be stationed in Yi County, where they relied on the original camp of the Huangzu Navy and expanded it, which led to the current Navy camp.

The water army camp stretches for several miles from the river to the land, and hundreds of large and small warships are moored in the fence surrounded by the water army camp, which is connected with the land, forming a crescent moon shape, so Cai Qing named it the crescent moon lake.

In the water barracks of Crescent Lake, Cai Qing and Cai Zhu are entertaining officers at all levels, since they have been stationed here, they have basically had a small banquet for three days, a big banquet for five days, and only trained for one hour in the Yangtze River every day.

The two brothers, Cai Qing and Cai Zhu, relied on Cai Mao's power, and even formed a party in the army for personal gain, cleverly set up a name, and defrauded grain, grass and military salaries. It is said that it is an army of 30,000, but in fact, there are only 20,000 people in this army, of which about 10,000 are empty places, and the empty salaries of these 10,000 people have been divided among Cai Qing, Cai Zhu and other officers.

Officers at all levels have benefited, so naturally they will not say anything, but it is a pity that those officers and soldiers at the lowest level have suffered, not only have to do hard labor for Cai Qing and Cai Zhu for free, but also face the danger of deducting military salaries.

The invincible and powerful Jingzhou Navy in the past has long ceased to exist, and under the leadership of Cai Mao, the Metropolitan Governor, the 80,000 Navy Army, it would be great to have 50,000 people.

It's a pity that Cai Mao Shili is huge, and Liu Biao is high, and the basic situation in the navy cannot be conveyed to Liu Biao at all. Even if Liu Biao wanted to inspect, it was Cai Mao who arranged haode early in the morning, Cai's empty salary, enslavement of soldiers, deduction of military salaries, and greed for military rations have long been a common problem, and this Jingzhou naval army has already become a tool for the Cai family to make money.

Just when Cai Qing, Cai Zhu and other officers were drinking happily in the camp tent, Sima Yi was alone, disguised as a soldier, and quietly slipped into the naval camp, and began to secretly investigate some "secrets" in the naval camp that everyone knows, but outsiders don't know!
