In the ninth year of Jian'an in the Qin calendar, in late February 200 AD, Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty was forced to issue an edict, accusing Liu Biao of being a clan relative, but not following the orders of the imperial court, just like the king of Huainan in the previous dynasty, and was a rebellion of the Han family. In this regard, the edict ordered the Duke of Qin and Prime Minister Qin Feng to crusade.

As a result, Qin Feng raised 300,000 troops, with Xu Shu and Jia Xu as military advisors, Zhao Yun, Dian Wei, Xu Chu, Gao Shun, Wei Yan, Ma Chao, and Pang De as generals, and Ma Dai, Li Dian, Ji Ling, and Zhou Cang as partial generals.

He led the Trap Legion, the Snake Legion, the Blue Wolf Legion, the Tiger Legion, 280,000 people in the four legions, 120,000 miscellaneous soldiers and logistics soldiers, a total of more than 400,000, known as 800,000 troops, and killed Jingzhou.

More than 400,000 troops marched quickly on the ancient "highway" built by Qin Feng. There is no dust that covered the sky and the sun in the past, and the marching army is neatly arranged, with rumbling footsteps, swords and guns like a forest, which is more powerful and majestic.

At the same time, Wu Hou Sun Ce, who inherited Sun Jian's foundation, raised 100,000 troops, and decided to take Jiangxia first, and then the four counties of Jingzhou. Half of Jiangxia was in Jiangnan, and later after Liu Bei occupied Jingzhou, this half was split into Eastern Wu. Sun Quan also built Xiakou on the south bank, facing Xiakou in Jiangbei.

At this time, the entire territory of Jiangxia belonged to Liu Biao, and Liu Biao hoarded heavy troops in the southern Jiangxia county town to guard against Sun Ce.

Therefore, Sun Ce had to take Jiangxia first in order to avoid the danger of being attacked by the enemy on his abdomen and back.

In April, Sun Ce moved first, and the 100,000-strong army was almost all the standing forces of Eastern Wu.

This is going to be a decisive battle! Liu Biao was taken aback when he received the news, and hurriedly sent an envoy to Xinye to ask Liu Bei to discuss the matter.

And when Liu Bei got the news, he also got the news that Qin Feng's 800,000 army had passed Wancheng.

Xinye, Zhuge Liang's mansion.

Liu Bei walked like a fly. scurrying, suddenly showing his head in the backyard. I saw that Zhuge Liang was touching flowers and grass. The heart said that the military advisor, the military advisor, you still have the heart to play with flowers! shouted, "Strategist." The big thing is not good, Qin Zijin led the army south, 800,000 troops! ”

Zhuge Liang was stunned when he heard this, and then shook the feather fan and bowed: "Congratulations to the lord, congratulations to the lord!" ”

Liu Bei wiped his sweat and said in his heart that I had a happy event. There are 800,000 people, and I only have 20,000 here. I saw him say repeatedly: "Sun Ce also raised troops at the same time." It seems that he and Qin Zijin are going to divide Jingzhou. Looking at Sun Ce's offensive direction, he thought that he was going to take the southern part of Jingzhou, and Qin Feng was going to take the northern part of Jingzhou. ”

After Zhuge Liang defected to Liu Bei, he once burned Cao Cao's more than 100,000 soldiers and horses with two fires, and the third fire almost burned Qin Feng to death. These three fires established his position in Liu Bei's group.

For Liu Bei, these fires are no match for Zhuge Liang's strategic blueprint for three parts of the world.

Today, Qin Feng raised troops, and Sun Ce echoed in the south, seeing that Jingzhou was about to be carved up by others. Liu Bei also entered a desperate situation because of this. In his opinion, if Zhuge Liang didn't have a charter to come up with. Then what kind of bullshit is fake, it is used to fool him, you can pull it out and cut it.

"Strategist. What to do, you used to say ....... Liu Bei asked cautiously.

Zhuge Liang shook the feather fan lightly and smiled slightly. He walked to the stone table next to him and picked up a printing pad. He said: "Lord, look, how is this seal engraved? ”

Liu Bei grinned secretly. The heart said that you still have the heart to carve the seal, even if you carve a jade seal and send a holy decree, Qin Zijin will not bird you. However, Liu Bei's biggest advantage is that he can endure, he calmed down, walked over and took the seal to take a look, but it was amazing!

I saw eight big characters on the seal, "Ordered by the sky, both longevity and eternal prosperity".

"Wow, military advisor, you really carved a fake jade seal!" Liu Bei screamed.

The corners of Zhuge Liang's mouth curled, and he sneered: "So so, so ......." ”

When Liu Bei heard that it was a strategy to divide the world into three parts, he was still very sure, and he was overjoyed, and said: "The military advisor is a good craft, I saw this jade seal back then, look at the appearance, and print it out to confuse the real ......." ”

In this regard, Liu Bei went to Xiangyang under the guard of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei.

Xiangyang, Governor's Mansion, Council Hall.

Liu Biao sat in the hall with a sad face, no longer having the freedom of the scholars in the past. Although the maid next to her was fanning, she was still sweating.

And under the hall, generals such as Cai Mao and Zhang Yun, as well as strategists such as Kuai Liang, Han Song, and Yi Yuan, were chattering, and they were already in chaos.

It's just because Qin Feng ruled the land of Bazhou, with millions of troops and thousands of generals, and now that he is pouring out, how can a small Jingzhou resist. And there is also a Sun Ce behind him, and there is almost nothing to do.

"What to do? Qin Zi is in, Qin Zi is really here! At the beginning, if you could kill him in Xiangyang! Liu Biao said in a trembling manner.

Everyone in the hall looked at each other, not knowing what to do.

Zhang Yun looked at Cai Mao and whispered: "The general's sister!" ”

Cai Mao nodded slightly, stroked his beard to hide his expression, and said, "General Ben knows ......." ”

Zhang Yun secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Don't forget my brother!" ”

At this time, a guard from outside came in and said, "Lord, Xinye Liu asks to see you." ”

"Oh!" Liu Biao seemed to have found a straw and said urgently; "Invite my brother in!"

After a while, Liu Bei walked in, first saluted, but after squeezing his eyebrows, he said, "Brother, the back hall is ...... discussed." ”

So, Liu Biao asked his subordinates to wait and took Liu Bei into the inner room.

in the inner chamber.

Liu Bei was even more alarmist and said, "Brother, if today, two-thirds of it is in Qin Feng's hands. Our old Liu family has passed down the country from our ancestors, and it is not guaranteed. However, we have to learn from the Guangwu Ancestor ....... Now the clan only has the elder brother, the younger brother, and Liu Zhang of the state. Our three clan relatives should unite to resist Qin Feng. Why don't you send an envoy to Liu Zhang to ask for reinforcements. ”

At this time, Liu Bei said again: "Brother can go to Jiangling and command the war in Jingzhou in the center." The army in the north of Jingzhou was ordered to defend Xiangyang, and the four counties in the south of Jingzhou joined forces to defend Changsha. When you have to borrow the soldiers and horses of Yizhou, you will first retreat Sun Ce in Jingnan, and then fight a decisive battle with Qin Feng. ”

"The three clans of my Liu family work together and defeat Qin Feng, and the Han family will be prosperous again."

Xiangyang City is tall, the city is strong, and it is the first male city in the south of the Yangtze River. If the heavy troops stationed are cautious, it will not be a problem to defend for three or five years. Liu Biao felt it. It's a good idea, and it's very likely to come to fruition. But. He asked, "Will Liu Zhang send troops?" ”

Liu Bei said with a stern expression: "Xiaozhi is reasonable, moving with emotion, we are in the same line, who can sit back and watch the Liu family's country be ruined?" ”

Liu Biao was overjoyed, thinking that if the three families joined forces, they would definitely be able to repel Qin Zijin's army. However, he soon began to think about what would happen if he was victorious. So, he didn't agree immediately, but made a thoughtful look.

Liu Bei observed his words. After scolding secretly, he said respectfully: "The younger brother must follow the elder brother before and after the saddle ......." ”

Liu Biao smiled at this time, and said in his heart that I am the only one who is the master of Zhongxing. He immediately repaired the book and said sincerely: "The three of us work together, and we will definitely be able to make my Han family prosperous!" But who should be the messenger? ”

"I have a strategist Zhuge Liang, who is eloquent, but I can send him to ......." Liu Bei said.

Liu Biao nodded and said, "Mr. Kong Ming is really the best candidate. I'll leave this matter to the virtuous brother. ”

"Brother, but please rest assured, be prepared to die!" Liu Beixin said that even if there is an army of millions, there are orders from three parties. How can we work together, wait for me and Kong Ming to join forces to clean up Liu Zhang, and then talk to you well.

So. Liu Bei returned to Xinye with Liu Biao's letter. A day later, Zhuge Liang accepted the commission of Chongdà. led more than 100 people to Yizhou.

Another day. A little later.

Qin Feng's army of more than 400,000 was stationed in an open area outside Xinye. The joint camp is more than ten miles, the camp is scattered and orderly, the infantry is in front, the cavalry battalion is in the rear, the pattern is compact and easy to defend and difficult to attack.

The Great Tent of the Chinese Army.

Xu Shu, the military advisor of the army, reported the military situation, "My lord, there is news from the intelligence guard, Liu Biao left for Jiangling. The four counties of Jingnan raised 100,000 soldiers and horses to gather with Changsha and Jiangxia. And the 200,000 soldiers and horses in the north of Jingzhou, half are in Xiangyang and half are in Jiangling. ”

Jia Xu then said: "It seems that Liu Biao has formed two lines of defense in Jingzhou. He did not send troops to the outside, and it seems that he is going to defend the city. ”

Qin Feng touched his beard and muttered, "Is there any news for Liu Bei in Xinye?" ”

Xu Shu hurriedly said: "Liu Bei is still in Xinye City, but his subordinates think that he will soon give up Xinye and cross the river, or go to Xiangyang or Jiangling ......." ”

Qin Feng nodded slightly, when Cao Cao went south in history, it was like this. However, when Cao Cao marched south, Liu Biao had already hung up, and Liu Brown sacrificed Jingzhou. It seems that he is going to fight a difficult Jingzhou strategy battle. However, fortunately, Sun Ce is his ally.

In the middle of the night, Qin Feng sat in front of the desk, looking at the sand table under the tent, thinking. This is his habit, before the war he always thinks about the historical process of the future generations, if he can find an entry point in his favor, it would be great.

It was late at night, and Dian Wei, who was on duty, wanted to remind the lord to rest early.

However, at this time, Qin Feng suddenly became energetic, stood up suddenly, laughed, and said, "Dian Wei, call Zhang Ping in, Benxiang has something important for him to do." ”

"Whoa!"

Soon, Zhang Ping entered the big tent and bowed: "Lord? ”

Qin Feng was very excited at the moment, walked down to make him get up, pointed to the sand table and said, "Our army is about to enter the territory of Xinye, and Liu Bei will definitely retreat across the river." The only possible thing for him was to cross the river from the Huyang ferry. And it is impossible for the large army of our army to hide from Liu Bei's ears and eyes. Therefore, Zhang Ping, you immediately led a few elites to infiltrate Xinye, converged with the local intelligence guards, and delayed Liu Bei's crossing of the river at the ferry. Buy time for the arrival of a large force of our army. ”

When Qin Feng said this, he couldn't help but smile and said, "If you pinch your fingers, Liu Bei has a good reputation, he will definitely be so ...... like this." And you, ...... so, so, and that. ”

Dian Wei on the side exclaimed, his big eyes suddenly dripping, almost unbelievable.

And Zhang Ping was dumbfounded, just because Qin Feng said it in too much detail, so he really couldn't believe that Liu Bei would really be like this. However, Zhang Ping is a loyal warrior who will fulfill the mission given by the lord.

In this regard, Zhang Ping led more than ten elite people to set off immediately, and under the cover of night, they looked at Xinye City and left.

At the same time, Shinno Castle was in shambles.

"Hurry up and take action, and follow the lord across the river ...... as soon as dawn."

"If the Qin army comes, you will die!" (To be continued......)
