Tian Xinqin led 500 Xiaorui soldiers to escort 2,000 soldiers to the military camp in Jiangling City to settle down, just waiting for Mi Fang to take the bait.

The five hundred soldiers were led by Lin Luozhu, Tian Xin summoned Lin Luozhu and five generals, cut off a straight hundred coins with a sword in public, handed half a coin to Lin Luozhu, and instructed everyone: "If someone comes to give an order with another half of the coin, act quickly." If there is guilt, a certain force bears it. ”

"Command!"

Lin Luozhu bowed his head and took out a palm-sized white silk embroidered with the word "Lin" from his arms, wrapped it in half a penny, and put it in his arms.

The embroidered white silk is his negative badge, and the rank marker tied to his back during the battle.

Tian Xin also put half a penny into his thick bag of 'Tiger Tooth General Seal', and then left the barracks and went straight to Guan Yu's mansion next to it.

This time, the palace guards led Tian Xin through the main entrance, and Tian Xin waited for a while to see Mrs. Guan.

Mrs. Guan led Guan Xing, and saw that Tian Xin was still wearing the original plain black official clothes: "Xiaoxian is already a general in the army, and if you wear black clothes again, you will lose your prestige, and I am afraid that people will laugh." ”

As he spoke, he patted Guan Xing on the shoulder: "Go and get the newly made red robe winter coat." ”

Guan Xing walked away quickly, and Tian Xin smiled bitterly: "Madam, the officials under my command have not changed their winter clothes, I am the master of an army, and I have no foundation, so I should share weal and woe with the officials." ”

At this time, the maid brought refreshments, and Mrs. Guan pretended to be unhappy: "Although I am a woman, I also know that the army is a powerful general, a courtesy general, and a desire cessation general." If the husband is a general, one of them is a good general. Filial piety wants to have all three? ”

At this time, Guan Xing brought a thick red robe from behind, and according to the law, military officials and military attachés should wear red robes that symbolize martial courage and enthusiasm.

Tian Xin's promotion was too fast, so that the official clothes that Liao Hua prepared for him at the beginning were far from keeping up with the level jump. During the war, there were not so many exquisite, and there were quite a few people who served the white dragonfish.

However, now General Huya is at the limit, and without three or five years of precipitation, it is impossible to be promoted.

Mrs. Guan raised her hand and gestured to send it to Tian Xin, and said with a smile: "When I came back before Dingguo, I specially instructed the family to sew a collar of winter clothes for Xiaoxian." I was about to send someone to the army, and I didn't want Xiaoxian to come by himself today. ”

Guan Xing also held a colorful and gorgeous embroidered red robe winter coat in front of Tian Xin, and looked up in anticipation: "Big brother, please." ”

Tian Xin stretched out his hand to catch it, and his right hand gently caressed the silky, soft, and fluffy texture, and touched the warm embroidered winter coat on his fingertips, which he had never seen in his previous life.

Only his mother would repeatedly tell him to dress warmly in late autumn, thinking about this, Tian Xin's eyes were sour: "Brother Dingguo, Mrs...... Alas, the letter was accepted. ”

Holding a seven- or eight-pound embroidered winter coat and sitting down, Tian Xin's tears couldn't stop rolling down, biting his lower lip and choking.

The teeth bit through the lower lip, and blood and tears dripped from the chin to the red robe.

Guan Xing was surprised and didn't know why, looking back at his mother, Mrs. Guan tilted her head slightly, Guan Xing retreated behind the screen, Guan Ji stood behind the screen and watched from the gap, covering her mouth It was also unknown.

Mrs. Guan also turned her head, and Tian Xin's face was pressed against the red robe and winter coat and choked silently.

After a long time, Tian Xin sorted out his emotions, wiped his face with his sleeves, and his voice changed color slightly: "Xin misses his mother to the point of gaffe, which makes his wife smile." ”

"What a smile, human nature."

Mrs. Guan also tapped the corner of her eyes with a handkerchief, and smiled and encouraged: "Ah Xing admires Xiaoxian very much, and listens to Xiaoxian's frequent lectures in the army. Ah Xing is a stubborn age again, so it is better to come to the house to teach Ah Xing in his spare time. ”

Tian Xin had recovered his emotions and said, "Madam, I believe that this is a special warning. If there is no need for men and women in the house in the near future, please refrain from traveling. If you have armor and equipment in the house, please keep it on your side. If there is a change in the city, it is better to defend yourself. ”

The smile on Mrs. Guan's face gradually faded, and her expression was calm.

Tian Xin continued: "I have sent 500 sharp soldiers under my command to settle in the military camp in the city, and if something happens, I will ask my wife to take them into the palace so that they can hold on. About tomorrow afternoon, the prince will respond. Madame doesn't have to worry too much, it may be that I am worrying about the sky and making a false alarm. ”

"Well, filial piety should be cherished more first."

"Mrs. Xie cares, and the letter is goodbye."

Tian Xin got up and walked out of the hall with a warm red robe and winter coat, looking up at the rising white sun.

As soon as he walked to the main gate, he saw that Huang Quan was about to dismount, and Huang Quan smiled lightly: "Filial piety, it's a good thing, the left protector of the Wu army, Lu Meng, is seriously ill, and Wu Hou is replaced by Lu Xun and Lu Boyan, the right protector." ”

As he spoke, Huang Quan raised his hand on Tian Xin's shoulder and walked back into the main gate, and said as he walked: "The envoy of Marquis Wu went to Jiangling to reiterate this matter. He also said that Lu Xun led the army to Baqiu, and frankly said that he had the intention of guarding against General Zuo, so please not be surprised by our army. General Zuo, it's really powerful! ”

After walking twelve or thirteen steps, the smile on Huang Quan's face was gone, and he whispered: "This enemy's plan is also false." ”

Tian Xin pursed his lower lip with the tip of his tongue, and the smell of blood was particularly refreshing: "Protector, I'll cross the river to the south bank." ”

I don't want Huang Quan to reach out and grab his arm: "General, capturing Fu Shiren is a trivial matter, why not General Lao himself?" ”

"No, I'm going to be in person. Protector, where is Pan Chengming now? ”

"is receiving the envoy of Wu Hou, it is Wu Hou's nephew Sun Yi."

Huang Quan sneered: "Sun Yi brought five ships of congratulatory gifts, and will enter Yizhou to meet the King of Han to congratulate Xiangfan on his victory." Pan Chengming and Mi Zifang held a banquet to treat each other, and today Pan Chengming may not be able to go to the public security with the general. The general was worried that others would corrupt the big thing, so Huang went to the public security in person. ”

Tian Xin hesitated, and Huang Quan said: "Now the surrendered army is divided into Jiangling and Micheng, and the Huya army is also divided into two. This is bound to be known to Sun Yi, and the Jiangling incident is just around the corner, and the general must not move lightly. Two days after the Ming Dynasty, the general moved and surrendered to Micheng. ”

If the public security is lost, it will be lost, and if the army is stabilized and Jiangling is kept, it will be invincible.

Huang Quan weighed by himself, Tian Xin took two steps back, tucked the red robe and winter clothes and solemnly arched his hand: "The last general will take the order." ”

Ma Chao, the leader of the left army, will also give Huang Quan face, and giving Huang Quan face is giving Liu Bei face, and vice versa.

After agreeing on the matter, Huang Quan also went to Mrs. Guan to convey a warning message to prepare for the worst.

Tian Xin walked back to the street, and saw several donkey carts coming out of the barracks, Yu Ban was wearing a green brocade robe, with gray hair, chatting with the left and right generals.

He glanced at Tian Xin in the rest of his eyes, and saw Tian Xin holding a large group of bright embroidered winter clothes in his arms, and the smile on his face was rigid.

Immediately smiled, bowed slightly to Tian Xin, and Tian Xin also smiled and nodded.

Seeing the three donkey carts go away, Tian Xin laughed at himself: "It's really a coincidence." ”

Returning to the old city barracks, Tian Xin spread out the white silk map and studied the strength of the Wu army.

It's a pity that it shouldn't be Sun Quan himself who takes the lead.

Now that the Han army is in full swing, Sun Quan should not take the initiative to appear on the battlefield without a certain certainty.

The forward generals of the Wu army who could participate in the war were the left protector Lu Meng, the right protector Lu Xun, the Yuzhang Taishou Sun Ben, the naval army Governor Jiang Qin, the Jiangxia guard general Sun Jiao, and the famous partial general Pan Zhang.

Lü Meng and Lu Xun combined with more than 30,000 troops; Sun Ben and Sun Jiao, the two cousins of Sun Quan, each have 10,000 people, and Jiang Qin's naval army also has a scale of 10,000 people, and Pan Zhang is subordinate to Sun Quan's Chinese army, and his department should be elite. The expedition will inevitably increase the number of troops, and it is estimated that it will be 10,000 people.

Excluding the successor army led by Sun Quan himself, the front army alone had 70,000.

This is a real, well-documented 70,000.

There may be one or two people who will lead their troops to garrison and transit, and the number of troops directly participating in the battle will be at least 50,000.
