Chapter 6 United Jingzhou
"Puff!" With a burst of such a sound, on the edge of a tributary of the Huai River, thousands of strong men took off their whole body with only a pair of small trousers wrapped around their lower body. This kind of short trousers is also Zhao Feng's masterpiece: it is no effort to wrap them with cloth strips. Then these people plunged into the river one by one. Although it was autumn at this time, they were not afraid of the cold, and they all struggled to swim to the other side.
There are still several people standing on the shore watching, one of which is Liu Bei. Seeing that more than a thousand people's surnames were better than himself, Liu Bei was also very happy. He immediately asked, "Xingba, this Huaihe sailor can be used to fight now!" While talking, the rest of the warships were mobilizing Lu Su to patrol back.
"Exactly, Lord, at present, this 10,000 sailors, coupled with the iron armored ship of Xuzhou, even if you encounter the Jiangdong sailors, you will be confident that you will have the power of the first battle!" Gan Ning on the right is also full of confidence.
"This time, it's all Lai Zijing, Bo Tao still has Xingba!" Liu Bei was also determined. At this time, Wen Ping and Xu Sheng had returned to Yuzhou, and Lu Su and Gan Ning were in charge of the navy. Among the second batch of graduates of Xuzhou College, many of them were also assigned to the sailors. Of course, among the graduates, Zhao Feng saw some "celebrities" names again.
"Zhang Nan, Feng Xi?" When checking the list of graduates that day, these two names suddenly entered Zhao Feng's eyes. He knew that these two people were Liu Bei's confidants, and they died in Yiling like Fu Tong. In addition, the names of the most prominent students of this year' graduates surprised Zhao Feng.
"Hao Zhao?" Zhao Feng specially called the student to his camp for careful investigation that day, and finally confirmed that this guy was the super defensive expert of Taiyuan Hao Zhao, who once killed Zhuge Liang in Chencang. After careful inquiry, I learned that Hao Zhao was indeed from Taiyuan and took refuge in Jingzhou with his family during the war in Bingzhou. Later, I heard about the enrollment of Xuzhou College, so I came to sign up.
"I think you are the most prominent student in this class. Let's be my guard for the time being!" Zhao Feng thought about it and arranged him to do this position. Hao Zhao was naturally grateful. Although Zhao Feng is now a miscellaneous general, unlike the four towns, the four expeditions and the generals of Si'an, he can have his own shogunate and so many subordinate officials, but there can still be a military marquis and guards. As for Lu Hao, the original head of the guard, this boy was recently sent by Zhao Feng to the front line of the war between Yanzhou and Jizhou Yuan Cao. It is unknown what secret tasks he will carry out.
"Lord, since General Gan's naval division has been able to fight, we should also contact Liu Jingsheng in Jingzhou. After all, if we want to use troops against Jiangdong, we may not be able to rely on Xuzhou troops alone!" Returning to Xuzhou, Zhao Feng saw that the time was ripe, so he stepped forward and said. This is also a strategic plan he has put forward since Cao Wei implemented the second season of exorcising tigers and swallowing wolves: that is, to unite Jingzhou and break through Jiangdong.
Zhao Feng was a standard Shu Han Party in his previous life. He never had a good impression on these Jiangdong rats who hid behind their backs all day long. Therefore, in order to avoid the recurrence of the tragedy of being stabbed in the back like losing Jingzhou, Zhao Feng has been looking for an opportunity to strangle Jiang Dong. The previous poaching for Lu Su, now recruiting Gan Ning, is all out of this plan. It's just that I forgot to get Zhuge Jin over. When he heard that Zhuge Jin had settled Jiaozhou, Zhao Feng was also surprised. Later, I remembered that this brother was also a figure of almost the same level as Lu Xun in the late Eastern Wu period in history, but in the early days, under the aura of Zhou Yu and others, there was limited space to play. Now Lu Su has been fooled away by himself, but it has provided him with a broader development platform. If you do it earlier, it should not be difficult to rely on the life-saving kindness of their families.
As for how to deal with Jiangdong, according to Zhao Feng's idea, you have to pull Liu Biao from Jingzhou to do it together. After all, the strongest in Jiangdong is the sailor. The only one who can compete with the Jiangdong sailor in the sky is the Jingxiang sailor. Considering that since Sun Jian's era, Jiangdong and Jingzhou have been accomplicity, it should not be difficult to persuade Liu Biao to send troops. After listening to this, Liu Bei also felt that it was more reasonable. Today, Zhao Feng mentioned again that Liu Bei also felt that it was time to send someone to contact Liu Biao. He immediately asked, "Who would like to go to Jingzhou and contact Brother Jing Sheng for me?"
"Sun Qian is willing to go!" Sun Qian, who is good at this kind of thing, is still unyielding. At present, Liu Bei wrote a handwritten letter and handed it over to Sun Qian, so that he must persuade Liu Biao to send troops together. So in the eyes of Zhao Feng and Liu Bei, Sun Qian set out and rushed all the way from Yuzhou to Jingzhou.
After counting, in the state pastoral government of Jiangling City, where Jingzhou is located, Liu Biao met Sun Qian, Liu Bei's envoy. Sun Gong came to Jingzhou this time. I don't know what's the matter? A seemingly ordinary question cleverly holds the initiative of the words in his own hands. After all, Liu Biao's decades of officialdom is not in vain.
"It's not for anything else, just because the former court issued an order to appoint General Zhao Feng as the governor of Nanyang, so I came here to ask Liu Jingzhou for the official position!" Sun Qian said with a smile.
"Well, let the Zhao Feng dog thief take office by himself. I won't chop him into eight pieces to feed the fish, and I swear not to be a man!" Before Liu Biao spoke, Cai Mao, who was beside him, was already vicious. Then he turned to Liu Biao and said, "Master, Mao is willing to bring a soldier and horse to break through Yuzhou and Xuzhou, and bring Liu Bei and Zhao Feng's head!"
"Presumptuous!" When Liu Biao saw that Cai Mao was so rude, he was also extremely unhappy, and immediately scolded him repeatedly. In fact, although Cai Mao is rude, he is not so arrogant. The reason was that Wei Yan beheaded his cousin Cai Zhong in Runan, and now he hated the whole Liu Bei Group.
"At present, I have Cai Dekui as the governor of Nanyang in Jingzhou. Xuande's arrangement, don't you want Dekui to dismiss him?" Liu Biao said slowly, and the reason was sufficient, and he could also buy people's hearts.
However, Sun Qian is not a fuel-efficient lamp. What's more, the people in Xuzhou have already thought about it before. They smiled and said, "My master also thinks about this, so there is a compromise now. Please ask Liu Jingzhou to adopt it."
Liu Biao was stunned when he heard the words. At the moment, he couldn't help asking, "What's the good strategy of Xuande?"
"My master proposed that another county could replace Nanyang and send it to General Zhao!" Sun Qian said with a smile. Liu Biao frowned slightly when he heard the words, but Cai Mao and others thought they understood what Liu Bei meant: Maybe Liu Bei knew that Liu Biao would not give up easily in the critical place of Nanyang, so he took a step back and proposed to change to another county in Jingzhou.
"Unknown Xuande wants to replace Nanyang with which county?" Liu Mian still asked in his usual slow tone, but he was thinking in his heart: If it really doesn't work, just draw a few counties to make up a county. Didn't he think that Liu Bei was so easy to fool?
"Yuzhang, or Luling!" Sun Qian replied with a smile, and his expression was so unfathomable. The people in Jingzhou were immediately in an uproar when they heard the words. Even Kui Yue, who had always been famous for his wisdom, frowned and said, "I'm afraid Liu Taiwei's words are difficult. How can Luling and Yuzhang be under the rule of Jiangdong Sun Quan?" Speaking of this, Khuai Yue seemed to understand something. At present, he kept silent, but looked at Sun Qian with a questioning face.
Feeling the meaning in Kai Yue's eyes, Sun Qian no longer pretended to be mysterious. At the moment, he said, "That's right. The previous Sun Ce attacked my Shouchun for no reason, and he was defeated by me. My Lord knows very well that Jiangdong, Xuzhou and Jingzhou have a deep hatred. If it goes on like this, it will become a future. Therefore, he intends to attack Jiangdong with Liu Jingzhou and divide the land equally!"
Silence, death-like silence. After listening to Sun Qian's words, the people in Jingzhou were almost confused by the huge ** of "eigniated division of Jiangdong". After a long time, Liu Biao said slowly, "Since this is the case, our army can't get more than Luling in Yuzhou. The two armies take Poyang Lake as the boundary, waiting for me to repair the book and reply to Xuande!" After saying that, Liu Biao did not wait for everyone's reaction, and directly ordered to take the pen and ink to immediately write a reply on the spot, and then held a banquet to treat Sun Qian.
After the banquet in the evening, Liu Biao arranged for Sun Qian to stay in the post hall, and then summoned his subordinates to discuss the affairs. Lord, why did you agree to the big-eared thief? Cai Mao hated Liu Bei and was puzzled by Liu Biao's promise to work with Liu Bei to attack Jiangdong.
"Jiangdong has been harassing Jingxiang for a long time. If you don't get rid of it, it will be a big trouble! What's more, Wen Zhongye went to Yuzhou before, and Liu Bei also accepted it. Now, if we stand by and watch Zhao Feng's matter, it will inevitably provoke gossip. Liu said slowly. When Kuayue heard the words, he frowned and said, "In this case, why doesn't the lord only have two counties and six counties in Jiangdong? Why not share them equally with Liu Bei?"
"I'm waiting for a hidden danger, and only two counties are enough! There are more cities than Liu Xuande, so he will work harder!" Liu Bao said indifferently. Kou Yue's brother, Kou Liang, was thoughtful, but in the end he didn't say anything.
After receiving Liu Biao's reply, Sun Qian returned to Xuzhou almost non-stop. Liu Bei was also overjoyed when he heard the news. He summoned Zhao Feng and Lu Su and others overnight to discuss how to attack Sun Quan.
"You have to attack here first!" Lu Su and Zhao Feng's hands coincidently pointed to the top of the map. This is the only city in Jiangdong on the north bank of the Yangtze River: the Lujiang River. Historically, the Lujiang River was originally divided into two by the Yangtze River, so Sun Quan and Cao Yan each accounted for a part. Now this situation naturally does not exist. The whole Lujiang County is Sun Quan's, but it is still divided into two parts. Among them, Jiangbei is governed by Yangquan County, while Jiangnan is governed by Shucheng County.
"That's right!" Liu Bei also felt that it made sense at a glance. Then he looked at the generals under the account and asked, "This crusade against Jiangdong Sun Quan, I don't know who is willing to lead the army?"
"The last general is willing to go!" Almost all the generals take the initiative to ask for help. Liu Bei looked at it for a long time, and finally stopped his eyes on Zhao Feng. Bo Tao, would you like to take on this important task? Liu Bei asked in a low voice.
"The last general is willing to go!" Zhao Feng was also excited and stepped forward. He Liu Bei looked at the young man he had known for eight years and nodded gently.
