When Wen Ping said this, Liu Zheng remembered that the matter in Xiangyang City had not been dealt with yet.

Cai Yao also knew, so she didn't stop Liu Zheng, and immediately stood up and said, "You have something important to do, you go and do your business first." ”

Liu Zheng nodded, just about to go out, he remembered something, and immediately looked at Cai Yao.

"Yao'er, your brother Cai Zhong, I originally wanted to ignore those previous agreements, go directly into the city, capture him alive, and come to avenge you, what do you think?"

Liu Zheng can not fight Xiangyang City, but Cai Zhong's offense to Cai Yao just now, Liu Zheng can't bear it, bullying him Liu Zheng can't do it, Liu Zheng may only smile faintly and don't care, but if he wants to bully his woman, Liu Zheng can't bear it.

A man's husband, born as a human being, for what, isn't it to protect his beloved?

Now that he can't even protect his beloved when he is bullied, what kind of man is he?

"Don't!"

As soon as Liu Zheng said it, Cai Yao's expression immediately changed, and he frowned to stop Liu Zeng from doing so.

"Why not? He beat you in front of so many people, and embarrassed you, this hatred, you are willing to forgive him, I don't want to. ”

"Brother Liu Zheng, don't, he is my brother after all, even if it's not good for me, in fact, I can't treat him like that, just let him continue to live, and when my eldest brother comes back, he will be cleaned up."

Cai Yao is still too soft-hearted, after all, she is a girl who grew up in a big family, and she can't let go of things like family affection.

Liu Zheng originally wanted to come according to his own ideas, but since after asking Cai Yao, Cai Yao didn't care about Cai Zhong's affairs, so Liu Zheng didn't want to talk and count.

He left the camp and walked outside the city with Wen Ping.

Looking at Liu Biao and Cai Zhong on the city tower, before they could answer Liu Biao, Liu Biao and the others were already more anxious than him, and directly began to ask Liu Zheng.

"Liu Zheng, the people and money you want have been given to you, why haven't you withdrawn from the army! Do you want to go back on it? ”

Liu Biao just wanted to use this kind of agitation method to deliberately say it, so that Liu Zheng would not dare to regret it, otherwise he would lose his trust in front of so many people, and it would also be a blow to Liu Zheng's reputation.

Although Liu Zheng looks down on Liu Biao and Cai Zhongren, he still cares more about his reputation and reputation, and he can mix in this troubled world, and the role of reputation is quite large.

Just like Shi Liu Bei, he has no background, and the reason why he was able to mix up a piece of his own world in the Three Kingdoms era is all because of the thing of fame, and he has a good reputation of virtue, so that many princes can accept him.

And Liu Zheng was born in the Yellow Turban Army, and the word virtuous and virtuous has nothing to do with him, but the word Xinyi is still related to him, as long as he is trustworthy and affectionate, he will have a group of brothers who support him, and he will be able to take these people and lay down a piece of the sky.

"Liu Biao, do you think I'm the kind of person who doesn't count?"

"Don't worry, I originally wanted to ask for Cai Zhong's life for you again, but my wife Cai Yao said that she didn't want her brother and sister to kill each other, so let me let Cai Zhong take a dog's life."

"Cai Zhong counts your fate, let your head hang on the neck line today, and when you fall into my hands again in the next day, you will know that my sister-in-law is amazing."

Liu Zheng smiled coldly, then turned his head and walked in the direction of the outside of the city, and directly gave the order to withdraw the troops.

Xiangyang City, if it can't be defeated, for Liu Zheng, it doesn't actually mean very much, anyway, today's Xiangyang City can't be called Jingzhou at all.

Several counties in Jingzhou, except for Nanjun and Jiangxia, all other places belonged to Liu Zheng.

Although Liu Zheng did not nominally occupy the Xiangyang administrative office, Jingzhou actually belonged to Liu Zheng, so Liu Zheng only needed to turn back and knock down Cai Mao's Changsha County, and everything would be settled.

As for Jiangxia's Yuan Shu, it has little to do with Liu Zheng, whether it is Yuan Shu defeating Jiangxia or Huang Zu defeating Yuan Shu, it has little to do with Liu Zheng.

After Liu Zheng occupies Changsha County, his power will rise to a new level, and when the time comes, sitting on the land of three counties, Liu Zheng can already be said to have half of the world, enough to compete with the Han court.

Of course, it will still take some time to directly turn the other cheek with the Han court, recruit soldiers and horses for Liu Zheng, train new soldiers, and if he can not declare war, Liu Zheng is still unwilling to launch a final decisive battle with the court so quickly.

Watching Liu Zheng gradually leave from outside the city, and the army slowly began to leave with Liu Zheng's departure, Liu Biao on the city tower finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Especially Cai Zhong, when he heard that Liu Zheng was originally planning to kill him, he was shocked into a cold sweat, fortunately, Liu Zheng was gone, and his life was temporarily worry-free, but he was still worried in his heart, after all, he completely offended Liu Zheng to death, and if Xiangyang fell into Liu Zheng's hands in the future, then his life would not be easy.

However, Liu Zheng still fulfilled his promise after all, and after getting the money Cai Yao and wanted, he did not embarrass Liu Biao. Really led the army and left.

In fact, the reason why Liu Zheng agreed to leave Xiangyang is more important is that he understands that if he can defeat Xiangyang, the loss of troops will be very large, if he really resists desperately, Liu Biao's army on the city tower will definitely burst out with different combat power, 10,000 soldiers and horses, even if it is a new army with little combat experience, under the leadership of Li Yan, can also cause some damage to Liu Zheng's people.

Liu Zheng, who had already lost more than 3,000 people, was afraid that he would lose another 6,000 people once he charged with all his might.

In order to lay down a Xiangyang City, he let Tai Shici's people lose more than half, and Liu Zheng didn't want to see it.

After all, every one of the men and horses under his command is very precious, and he doesn't want to see them make senseless sacrifices, Xiangyang City can come back at any time to get it, as long as Liu Zheng wants it.

And he was in a hurry to withdraw his troops, mainly Changsha County.

Although Wen Ping and Gan Ning did not send news to Liu Zheng, saying that they could not stop Cai Mao's army, Liu Zheng knew that Cai Mao would definitely send someone back to help Xiangyang, as long as Liu Zheng killed him at this time, he might be able to encounter the big battle between Cai Mao and Gan Ning.

At that time, Liu Zheng's strange soldiers of more than 10,000 people appeared to support Gan Ning, and he could completely end the battle between Cai Mao and Gan Ning in one battle, and recover Changsha County with his hand.

In this way, Liu Zheng's battle of Jingzhou was completed.

Early September 188.

Liu Zheng's army, which returned to Changsha from Xiangyang, finally received news from Cai Mao and Gan Ning when they were close to the boundary of Changsha.

As Liu Zheng guessed, Gan Ning and Wen Ping were stationed in a place called Ji Tengshan.
