Chapter 15 Huo Jun's return

"Since it has been captured, there is only death, there is no need to say more!" Zhao Lei was extremely tough and looked straight at Guan Yu with his head held high.

"Your Majesty, all the food and fodder escort have been seized by General Liao Hua, and now they are hoarded with Maicheng." Seeing that Guan Yu did not speak for a moment, Chen Wu first reported. Zilie, thank you for your hard work!" Guan Yu encouraged him, and then turned his head to Zhao Lei and shouted, "Since you are not afraid of death, I will fulfill you." Come on, drag it down and cut it down."

"Your Majesty, wait a minute." At this time, Zhuge Liang heard the news and hurriedly came. He first complained to Guan Yu. Then he turned his head and said to Zhao Lei, "Captain Zhao has been missing for a long time. Liang knows that you are loyal and righteous. Liu Jingsheng said that he had never treated you badly in the past. Why did he do rebellious things with Kuai Yue now?"

"Kong Ming?" Zhao Lei was stunned when he first saw his acquaintance, and his expression on his face changed continuously. Then he sighed and said, "Kong Ming, since you and I know each other, I won't hide it from you. If I surrender, my parents, wife and children will all be in Xiangyang, and Cai Mao will kill me in a blink of an eye!"

"So that's it!" Zhuge Liang suddenly realized when he heard the words. Guan Yu's face was also a little better-looking. He muttered a little and said, "You are difficult to say, and I don't force you. Come on, take him down. After that, Xiangyang will be broken, and then make a plan. Zhao Lei thanked Guan Yu and took the initiative to go to prison.

"Captain Zhao, I don't know how long Xiangyang's grain storage will last?" Just as Zhao Lei was to be taken away, Zhuge Liang suddenly asked. Zhao Lei was stunned when he heard the words, and then muttered, "The remaining grain in the warehouse is still enough to support more than 20 days. In addition, Cai Mao has everything in his own house, I'm afraid he can last for a month at most. After all, Xiangyang's garrison also has more than 50,000."

"So that's it!" Zhuge Liang and Guan Yu exchanged faces with each other when they heard the words, and they all knew it in their hearts. Junhou, it seems that Cai Mao is not afraid here. The two of them made trouble, and there could not be too many people to respond. At present, there is not enough food and fodder, and the army's heart will be confused. At present, the attack is still the top. Zhuge Liang said.

"How to attack the heart?" Guan Yu motioned Zhuge Liang to continue.

"You can tell the defenders of the two counties of Xiangyang and Zhangling that they will only kill the rebellious leaders Kuai Yue and Cai Mao, and others, and the rest will not be investigated. In this way, they will certainly disturb their military heart. Of course, the specific person who can be forgiven and who can't be forgiven needs to be decided by the lord and Liu Jingzhou.

"It's so good!" Guan Yu also quickly made a decision and quickly sent someone to send a letter to Liu Bei and Liu Biao to inform him of the matter. After the count, the two replied, saying that if they were not the best friends of the Cai clan, they could be pardoned. If the rest of the people can do it anyway, they will not be blamed. At present, Zhuge Liang wrote thousands of letters of persuasion in the name of Liu Bei and Liu Biao, and only shot into Xiangyang City when the food and fodder were not available, so as to ensure that Cai Mao's feet were in chaos.

It's not to mention that Cai Mao's own self is difficult to protect. At this time, in Xu Chang's prime minister's mansion, Cao Qian was looking at the information sent from Jingzhou. He frowned slightly but did not say a word. After reading it, he passed on Xun Yu and other counselors, and everyone was also a little depressed after reading it.

"Guan Yu was really unexpected. He didn't attack Xiangyang, but took Wancheng first. In this way, if our army wants to support Jingzhou, we can only go to Xiangcheng to cross the water. Xun Yu looked at the information and the map, and immediately got his own conclusion.

"But Guan Yu captured Wancheng, but still did not attack Xiangyang, but attacked Maicheng. Why is this?" Cao Hong looked at the information and asked in surprise.

"It's not good. It seems that he wants to cut off the grain road of Cai Mao and Guo Yue. As I expected, Yiling and Dangyang counties should have also been captured by Zhao Feng or Liu Pan. Guo Jia glanced at the map and immediately understood the intention of Zhuge Liang and others.

"Done off the grain channel?" Cao Hong repeated Guo Jia's words in some astonishment, but heard the latter say in detail: "Jingbei has a great drought this year, and there is a shortage of money and grain. Cai Mao and others rely on the money and grain accumulated by Jiangling to maintain it. If these two grain roads are blocked, Xiangyang and Zhangling counties will be in chaos within two months.

"So that's it!" Cao Hong suddenly realized after listening to Guo Jia's explanation. So do we need to send troops to respond now? If Cai Mao and others lose too fast, it will be extremely unfavorable for the Prime Minister to become the head of Jing Xiang in the future!" After thinking about it, Cao Hong also suggested.

"It should be like this, but our army's food is just enough. This drought is not the right time! Guan Yu is not a conspiracy at all, but a naked conspiracy. It is obvious that he bullies Cai Mao without food and fodder!" Cao Yan sighed, and then the front turned angrily and said, "The two fools, Cai Mao and Kai Yue, first let someone rob Liu Biao, and now they are in danger and blame themselves." Everyone was silent when they heard the words. Whether Cai Mao can hold on now depends on God's will.

"Lord, you can't do it!" In Jiangling City, the gray-faced Cai He came back to cross the road. Liao Hua insisted on Maicheng, and the last general failed to win the battle with him. Maicheng was eager to attack, but Zhao Feng raided our army behind him. He was really suffering from the enemy.

"What?" When he heard the words, he was even more annoyed. At this time, someone came to report that the grain and fodder that had just been sent to Yidu were also robbed. Lieutenant Fu Shiren was captured. Only a dozen soldiers escaped quickly and ran back to Jiangling City.

"That's all, Dudu Cai, Huo Zhongmiao, you all have your own destiny!" Kou Yue can't take care of others. Let's save his own Jiangling first. At the same time, in the Yangzhou army tent, Wen Ping came to Zhao Feng with Fu Shiren, who was tied up.

"General Zhao, this escort was intercepted by our army. After he was captured, he said that there was a confidential military situation, so I brought him to see you, the general. Wen Ping pushed Fu Shiren forward.

"Thank you for your hard work!" Zhao Feng comforted him, and then looked at the fat captain in front of him and asked, "Who are you and what secret military information do you have?"

"General Hui, the villain is Fu Shiren, the captain of General Huo Jun." Fu Shiren nodded and bowed with a flattering face. Huh?" Zhao Feng didn't expect that the person in front of him was still a celebrity. He suddenly had some expectations for his so-called confidential military situation, but he still said quietly, "It's better for your military situation to be useful to me. I, Zhao Feng, don't like to listen to nonsense."

"Yes, yes, yes!" Fu Shiren nodded like a chicken pecking rice, and then said, "The general doesn't know anything. In fact, we General Huo don't want to be enemies of your army, but all his family are detained in Jiangling by Quai Yue, so we have to work for it!"

"Oh? Is there such a thing?" Zhao Feng was also a little surprised when he heard the words, but he thought about it and said, "Even so, I can't help. At present, Jiangling's defense is very strict. How can we save General Huo's family?

"No, no, general, now is a God-given opportunity." Fu Shiren hurriedly said, and then told the whole story. It turned out that when Fu Shiren was escorting food and fodder, he went to visit Huo Jun's sister-in-law and nephew by the way and reported that he was safe. I didn't expect it to be the defendant. It happened that Huo Jun's brother Huo Du's sacrifice was approaching, and both of them went to Zhijiang's hometown to sweep the tomb for him.

"That is to say, they are in Zhijiang now, aren't they?" Zhao Feng asked leisurely.

"Ext this is the case. In order to prevent them from escaping, he also sent people to follow them all the way. It's called protection, and it's really a guard." Fu Shiren replied.

"Ke Yue is not a resourceless person. Why did he allow General Huo's family to leave Jiangling at this time?" Zhao Feng couldn't help frowning and asking, which was not very logical.

"The general doesn't know anything. General Huo's sister-in-law's surname is Qing Yi Lie. Ping said that she was detained in Jiangling. If she was not allowed to pay tribute to her dead husband, she would probably break it by herself. Every half month, when the villain comes to Jiangling, he will visit the man of Hoff to report a message. Once the Hoff people have something to do, how will General Huo be willing to work for Quao Yue after he knows it? So I have to make concessions!" Fu Shiren wrote the details one by one, and Zhao Feng suddenly realized that there was still this reason on the surface.

"Hmm." Zhao Feng also nodded, and then let people untie him. Fu Shiren quickly thanked him. At present, Zhao Feng sent Wen Ping to lead 3,000 troops to attack Zhijiang immediately. After seeing Huo Du's wife, he explained the reason and invited him here. After receiving the order, Wen Ping also set out quickly.

After counting, Wenpin led the army back to the barracks with a carriage, on which was a woman about 30 years old and a boy in his teens. It disturbs the Hoff people, and the Hov people must have known what's going on now. Kuai Yue and Cai Mao committed a rebellion. They used their wives to force General Huo to defend the city for them. At present, they are confronting General Liu Pan in Yidu County. Please also ask your wife to explain the current situation to General Huo so that he will no longer help him. Zhao Feng tried his best to explain the reason to Huo Jun's sister-in-law in a more polite tone.

This man of Hoof was not very surprised by this, and it could even be said that he was relatively calm. The next time, he wrote a handwritten letter to Fu Shiren bring back to Yidu to explain his current situation to Huo Jun. Zhao Feng also asked people to tell Liu Pan that he was ready to accept Huo Jun's surrender.

After counting, news came from Yidu that Huo Jun surrendered after receiving Fu Shiren's reward. Liu Pan entered Yidu County and prepared to go north to attack Zhangling after recuperation. Huo Jun himself refused Liu Pan's invitation and only brought hundreds of soldiers to Jiangling to join Zhao Feng.

"See General Zhao!" Outside Jiangling City, a young general in his twenties bowed to Zhao Feng. General Huo doesn't have to be polite. The general gave up secretly. Congratulations!" Zhao Feng also said some scenes and tried his best to comfort Huo Jun. As for why Huo Jun came to join himself instead of Liu Pan, Zhao Feng had already thought of it. On the one hand, his sister-in-law and nephew were still here, and on the other hand, Liu Bei, who was steamed with strength, looked more promising than Liu Biao in Bo Xishan. Huo Jun repeatedly said that he did not dare to be. After seeing his sister-in-law and nephew, he was relieved and completely defected to Zhao Feng.

Huo Jun returned, and the news of the loss of Yidu County spread to Jiangling. Kyue was like being splashed with cold water on his head, and he couldn't get back for a long time.
