"A certain family can be lowered, and tens of thousands of sons under my command can also be lowered, but the premise is that a certain person wants to talk to Minghou in person, none of you, I don't believe it, I only believe that Minghou's personal promise, if you can't do it, then fight!"

Zhuge Liang, who had been locked up for two days, was released, and then he left Jingzhou City with Cai Mao's words.

The northern suburbs of Jingzhou City.

Pastoral battalion.

Xi Zhicai and Zhang Liao knelt in front of them, glanced at each other slightly, and after half a sound, Xi Zhicai spoke: "This should be the bottom line!" ”

"It's a normal thing!"

Zhang Liao nodded and said: "He Cai Deqi is not Kuai Zirou, Kuai Zirou is a generation of ministers, but he has never been in charge of the army, he has fallen into the hands of the lord, life and death are uncertain, so naturally he can only be loyal to my Minghou Mansion, but Cai Deju, holding military power, is still the head of the Jingzhou family, whether it is Shilin or the army, he has a great influence, he will not surrender so easily!" ”

"He's got a problem for me!"

Xi Zhicai said.

"The problem is the problem, but this is the only chance to mitigate this battle!" Zhang Liao raised his head, looked at the looming city gate in the distance outside the camp gate, and said: "You know Jingzhou City, it's not so easy to fight, unless, we don't want to directly submerge Jingzhou City, hundreds of thousands of people, tens of thousands of Jingzhou elite soldiers and horses, that would be too evil, and it's not easy, it's still winter!" ”

Jingzhou City is easy to defend and difficult to attack.

But there is a flaw.

That is, the topography of Jingzhou City is sandwiched in the surrounding rivers, as long as a dam is built to store water, and then flooded the Seventh Army, the entire Jingzhou City can be turned into an ocean.

Of course, this method is not easy to do, it is winter, the water level is very low in winter, even if Jingzhou is located in the south, the river will not freeze, but if you want to flood Jingzhou, you also need to store water for a long time.

If hard attacked.

Fighting in the face of trapped beasts, fighting rather than dying, and the Jingzhou soldiers who were cornered, even if they win, they would pay huge casualties.

"Little Zhuge , do you think Cai Mao has a certain meaning of sincere surrender?"

Xi Zhicai thought about it and asked Zhuge Liang.

He is becoming more and more important to Zhuge Liang.

Zhuge Liang's performance in Jingzhou City can be called perfect, he borrowed the knife, Jing Wusi's knife, killed himself, did not kill, but forced Cai Mao into a desperate situation.

"Now Jingzhou, the trend of the times!"

Zhuge Liang pondered for a moment before answering, and said: "Whether it's Cai Mao or Huang Zu, in fact, they don't have many paths to choose, if they are really loyal, when Jiangxia is broken by us, they should kill themselves and leave a Qingming, instead of the current Lingering Gas!" ”

"When I went out of the city, Cai Mao was in the city, confiscated more than a dozen squires and wealthy families, and beheaded several of his cadres at the mouth of the market, and at the same time, he also put Liu Qi under house arrest, all for me to see!"

"I think he really surrendered!"

"But this matter, we are not easy to choose, I think, immediately report it, let the lord decide!"

Xi Zhicai thought about it, but thought that Zhuge Liang's words were very pertinent.

"It's like this, the stalemate, we can't handle it well, report to the lord immediately, the fastest speed!"

Xi Zhicai made a decision and said directly.

"No!"

A general banner of Jing Wusi, who was specially responsible for communication, handed over his orders.

"The siege of the city is still to be besieged, increase the pressure, even if you can't force them to abandon the city and surrender, let them know the power of our army!" Xi Zhicai finally thought about it and said in a deep voice.

"Yes!"

The generals commanded.

…………………………

The snow in winter is erratic.

The south has never been a snowy place, but this is not the era of global warming in the 21st century, and in winter, there will be snow falling in the north and south, and the snow in Jingzhou is not big and very soft.

"It's almost the New Year!"

In the morning, just after practicing a boxing technique, there was a sweat, but the sweat was quickly drowned by the cold weather, Mu Jing stood in the courtyard, looked at the snow in the sky, sighed, and was a little sad: "I don't know if I can go home in time for the New Year!" ”

As the so-called three years as a soldier, the sow beats the sable.

The march has been for so long, from the beginning of the year to the end of the year, there are still two daughters-in-law in the house, if you want to say that you don't want to, it is a lie, the wife and children warm the kang head, what a good life, you have to fight and kill.

"Lord, after drinking ginger soup, the weather is cold, you have just finished practicing boxing, hot and sweaty, hot and cold, it is easy to get sick!"

Jin Jiu personally walked over with a bowl of ginger soup.

"Jin Jiu, when will your martial arts break through?"

Mu Jing asked suddenly.

"It's not close!"

Jin Jiu smiled bitterly.

Realm breakthrough, how can it be so easy, a martial arts wizard like Shi A was taken under the door by the Sword Saint King, and now he is still tossing at the bottleneck, that step, it is difficult to step out.

"The position of the Great Commander of the Divine Guard Army is not easy to sit in!"

Mu Jing said softly: "Zhang Huo, you have no intention of doing this, and you are bent on tossing in the six doors and the martial arts hall, but you can't compete with him in martial arts for a day, and you can't take his place for a day!" ”

Now Jin Jiu is only the deputy commander and the captain of the Shenwei Battalion, and in terms of identity, he is half a level behind.

"Understand!"

Jin Jiu nodded: "I will definitely not disappoint the lord!" ”

"Come on!"

Mu Jing was just interested in saying a few words, not that he was dissatisfied with Jin Jiu's ability, Jin Jiu's martial arts were still good, leading the Divine Guard Battalion and guarding him left and right, even if the Yuangang Realm martial artists were difficult to get close to half a point.

…………

Mu Jing bathed, changed into a set of blue robes, knelt in front of the hall, and was dealing with the music book as high as a mountain, every day from the Ming Hou Mansion, the music book was piled up like a small mountain, even if he was out on the expedition, Yizhou military and political affairs, he needed to personally pass the purpose.

The establishment of the Zhaoming Pavilion has indeed accelerated the efficiency of the administration of the Ming Marquis Mansion, and many things can be directly reviewed by the ministers, but even if they are approved, at least they have to report to Mujing for a second review.

This is respect for royal power.

And now that it is a troubled time, if Mu Jing dares to directly let this monstrous right go, then he is not generous, he is stupid, and sooner or later he will be uprooted.

"Lord, play Sima's urgent secret play!"

It was Huang Jun who spoke.

Huang Mengchao is the son of a family, receiving the education of the family, but he is not allowed by the family, it is difficult to have a bright future, but he met Mu Jing, Mu Jing is very optimistic about him, after Jiang Wan was decentralized, there was no one around, it was always inconvenient, so he sent Huang Jun over and used it temporarily.

It's just temporary, if you want to say that he is so relieved, just put Huang Jun by his side, it's impossible.

When I used to read history books, I always heard people say that accompanying the king is like accompanying the tiger, and the way of the king has always been suspicious, but now when he is the overlord of a party, he feels that sitting in this position, he will be studied with a magnifying glass, and his personality does not change much, he can't do it, and for the people around him, he is too relieved to die, and he can't do things if he is not at ease, and being suspicious is not a problem, it is a survival skill that must be possessed.

"Xi Zhicai?"

Mu Jing sneered a little, he hadn't settled accounts with this guy yet, if he hadn't been rash, if he hadn't been defeated in Jingzhou, he wouldn't have been so passive, and let Cao Mengde take a big bargain in vain.

According to the recent news, Cao Cao moved the capital to Xudu, and embarked on the road of history, coercing the Son of Heaven to order the princes, but the starting point is higher, and he has taken charge of the land of Yuzhou, Yanzhou, and Xuzhou, becoming the overlord of the Central Plains, and his strength is even higher than that of Yuan Benchu.

This future is definitely an enemy, a great enemy of fate.

"Look what he says!"

Mu Jing opened the notebook and looked at it, and his brows furrowed a little: "It seems that you still have to go out in person!" ”

To be honest, although he is determined to win Jingzhou.

But in the last battle, he really didn't want to fight.

really crippled Jingzhou, and he was the one who suffered in the end, and how many resources in Yizhou had to be smashed down at that time in order for Jingzhou to restore prosperity.

"Meng Dynasty!"

"In!"

"Go and tell General Huang Hansheng to prepare the boat, and order him to personally lead the Divine Guard Army to protect me along the river!"

"No!"

"Also, invite General Meng Huozhonglang and Su Fei Taishou to me!"

"Yes!"

…………………………

Jiangxia has stabilized, and it is not a big problem for Mu Jing to leave Jiangxia at this time, but what should be explained must be explained, and the Nanzhong Army must also stay and guard Jiangxia.

He wouldn't forget that Jiang Xia also had a tough neighbor.

Although Jiangdong was beaten by Mu Jing, but their combat effectiveness is still there, stationed in Chaisang, living next to each other, if Jiangxia has heavy troops stationed, they naturally dare not step into half a step, if Jiangxia space, they will not be able to take a dangerous attack, directly attack Jiangxia.

Sun Jian was beaten half to death by Mu Jing, according to the news, he is still lying on the bed and can't get out of bed, but Sun Bofu is a young hero, he is a sharp person, and his offensive power is even more fierce than Sun Jian.

Mu Jing can handle Sun Jian.

may not be able to grasp Sun Ce.

Therefore, Jiangxia must be stationed with heavy troops to defend Jiangdong.

"General Meng Zhonglang, how is your health?"

In the battle of Xiling, Meng was almost alive and was seriously injured, but fortunately survived, this battle, he was also a blessing in disguise, and he was completely trusted by Mu Jing, and he would not be incompatible with the Mu army because of his identity as a barbarian king.

"Thank you for your concern, the last general is in good health and can go to the battlefield at any time!"

Meng Shu said toughly.

In fact, he was still very weak, after all, that knife almost killed him.

He and Sun Jian were really desperate.

Sun Jian's skills are superior, he fights fiercely, and he is stunned to use half of his life's skills in exchange for a chance to kill him, and he really almost let his hand.

"Take care of your injuries!"

Mu Jing patted Meng Shu on the shoulder and said: "Don't ignore your body, you must know that the body is the capital for promotion and wealth, and the body is the foundation, you are injured now, you should recuperate, but there is one thing, a certain and Huang Zhong are about to leave Jiangxia, and Jiangxia's defense will be handed over to your Nanzhong Army!" ”

"Lord ......"

Meng was stunned.

Mu Jing ignored it and continued: "Meng Shu, do you have words? ”

"A certain person was born in a barbarian tribe, and he has always been called by his name, and the rules of the Central Plains scholars have not learned much, but his brother has some knowledge, so he has a word, and a certain has no words!"

"I'll give you a word!"

Mu Jing said: "Yizhi! ”

"Yizhi?"

Meng Shu understands Chinese characters, but his knowledge is not high and his comprehension is not strong.

"You'll understand later!"

Mu Jing smiled, and then said: "Meng Yizhi, you are a little embarrassed, but this also means that you have taken the first step, don't forget your own background, but don't care too much about your own background!" ”

Although Meng Shu became the barbarian king, the city government naturally had it, and his mind would turn, but he could never keep up with Mu Jing's thoughts, so he was confused when he listened, and there were some complaints in his heart: Reading people are so uncomfortable when they speak.

"Now that you are injured, recuperation is the first priority, so I have made an iron rule in the Nanzhong Army, within a year, you are not allowed to fight in person!"

"This?" Meng Shu was a little reluctant: "Lord, you can't go into battle to fight, how can you command the troops!" ”

"Yizhi, read more military books!"

Mu Jing encouraged and said: "You are not a vanguard, but the main general, nearly 20,000 sons under your command, fight for you, what reason do you have to go to the battlefield in person, your task is never to go into battle to fight, but to arrange troops, unless you are willing, always be a vanguard general, there was Huang Zhong leading the troops before, you can charge into battle with peace of mind, but now, you have to learn to command the soldiers and horses yourself, you were also a hegemon back then, leading the barbarian army, you don't lack experience, what you lack is just an understanding of the main general, I can't teach you, You can only comprehend it yourself! ”

……………………

After extracting Meng Shu and teaching him a lesson.

Next, it's Jiangxia's business.

Su Fei, Su Boyi, the newly appointed Jiangxia Taishou, he sat in this position, and he was the number one traitor among the civil officials in Jingzhou, but he sat very down-to-earth and willingly became a knife of Mujing.

Scholars, especially those from poor families, have studied hard for more than ten years, full of ambition and depression, and that feeling is aggrieved.

Only one person is willing to appreciate.

Whether it's life or reputation, he doesn't care, this is the persistence of a scholar.

"Jiangxia is too guarded by Su Fei, meet the lord!"

Su Feitang knelt down and bowed, respectful.

"Boyi, come up, sit!"

Mu Jing's smile was very soft, as if he was born with a charm that made people close.

"No!"

Su Fei walked up and knelt down at the desk next to Mu Jing, looking a little restrained, although it was not the first time he had seen Mu Jing, and Mu Jing was very indulgent to him, he ruled Jiangxia, and Mu Jing personally endorsed him, so that he could be so smooth and stabilize Jiangxia.

"What is the situation in the counties?"

Mu Jing asked.

"At present, it is quite stable, but during this time, the state pastor has penetrated Jiangxia very deeply, and some of them are loyal to Jingzhou Mu, and there are not a few, but for the sake of stability, the subordinates don't want to touch them yet!"

"You're doing the right thing!"

The pasture nodded: "After the chaos, the great governance, the great governance must use heavy regulations, but stability is the first, we can't let the people below suffer from the turmoil because of the changes above!" ”

He agreed with Su Fei's forbearance, at this time, it was not a good thing to kill the Quartet.

"Thank you for your support!"

"But don't let them be too arrogant!" Mu Jing continued: "Mingke is a treasure book of my Minghou Mansion, I ask you, within half a year, you must let the law of "Mingke" penetrate into the people, remember one thing, no matter who it is, the rules are the law, the law is the rules, the Son of Heaven violates the law, and the common people are guilty of the same crime, there can be no exceptions!" ”

The Ming Hou Mansion formulated the "Ming Branch" as the law, the six doors enforced the law, and the law Cao was convicted, which is a very virtuous circle, and it is the best set of law system that Mu Jing can think of at present.

"No!"

Su Fei ordered this task.

"Another ......"

Mu Jing's voice was low, very small, only Su Fei could hear it: "I give you a task, a task that can only be known to you!" ”

"Please command, my lord!" Su Fei's face became stern.

"Jingzhou is not stable, now Cai Mao and Huangzu are still stubbornly resisting, and I want to surrender in person, as long as they surrender, Jingzhou is no longer allowed to be a pastor in Jingzhou, you, personally send him on the road!" Mu Jing's words were ruthless.

Liu Biao cannot stay, this is a matter of principle.

Mu Jing wants to govern Jingzhou.

Liu Biao must die.

Otherwise, no matter who it is, it is difficult to rest assured, Liu Biao's foundation in Jingzhou is a little deeper than Liu Yan's foundation in Yizhou, if he has a whim and a little thought, he can toss Jingzhou out of a big turmoil.

And he asked Su Fei to do it.

Because Su Fei is a talent, Jingzhou has many talents, and now Kuai Liang has surrendered, as soon as Cai Mao, Huang Zu and others surrender, these people will join forces to make fire, and he can't let Su Fei go with them, so this is a test he gave Su Fei.

"No!"

Su Fei gritted his teeth, he clearly knew that as long as he did it, he would be excluded by the entire Jingzhou system in the future, and he could only be a lonely minister, and he could only have one to rely on, that is, Mu Jing.

But this is his vote, he must not hand it over, he has taken ninety-nine steps, and he can't give up his previous achievements because of the last step, his ambitions, his future, and his future are all above this step.
