Kuai Yue can only be soft, not tough. Cai Mao and Zhang Yun were also relieved when they saw Kuai Yue's statement. Then Cai Mao hurriedly told Kuai Yue about the matter.

"The father and son of the Guan family are both eloquent people, and now such actions are expected. On the contrary, if there is no reaction, it is a strange thing. Kuai Yue smiled calmly when he heard this, then pinched his beard lightly, and said: "You can increase the number of troops by 10,000 to Wenpin, so that the defenders of Fancheng will reach 20,000." With the presence of civil servants, coupled with the sturdiness of Fancheng and 20,000 elite soldiers, it is difficult for the Guan family to break through Fancheng. ”

Then he ordered the navy to shrink into the water village and not to fight. The defenders of Xiangyang, enter the city, close the city gates, and do not fight. ”

Cai Mao and Zhang Yun couldn't help but look at each other, and it was normal to add soldiers and horses to Wenpin. Increasing troops on the front line during wartime. After all, this time Guan Yu is not trivial, not only the new field soldiers and horses, but also Li Zheng, Liao Hua, Ding Fengfangling, the three armies, are violent.

But the water army turtle shrunk the village, and Xiangyang closed the city gate, what kind of operation is this?

If it weren't for the fact that it was Kuai Yue who said this, they would have suspected that the other party was a traitor to the enemy, so they would have pulled it out and cut it down.

But the other party was Kuai Yue, Zhang Yun asked in a low voice first: "Fancheng, Xiangyang is separated by the Han River, the other party Ding Feng and Liao Hua are water troops, and the number is small, at this time, the water army should be ordered to attack, intercept, or eliminate Liao Hua and Ding Feng." Why do you shrink instead? Let's not talk about anything else, if the turtle shrinks, Xiangyang and Fancheng will no longer be able to contact. ”

Kuai Yue sighed when he heard this: "The Xiangyang warship has been in disrepair for a long time, and the navy has not practiced for a long time. The elite is just Wang Wei, and now Wang Wei has gone south to Jiangxia. Although there are many sailors in Xiangyang, who can fight? On the contrary, that Liaohua, Ding Fengnai is a young general promoted by Guan Ping, that is, although Liaohua is lustful, he is not a loser in righteousness. I think these two must have a lot of skills. If you let the navy go to battle, even if the troops are victorious, but I am afraid that there will be more defeats and fewer victories. ”

"On the contrary, if the turtle can't shrink, it will be difficult for them to attack the water village. As long as we hold Xiangyang, as well as the warships, and Wenpin hold Fancheng, Guan Yu will have no chance, and Guan Yu will see that there is no chance, and most of them will retreat on their own. As for the connection between Fancheng and Xiangyang, you don't have to worry about it. Fancheng has plenty of grains and equipment, and Wen Ping led an army of 20,000 to defend Fancheng, which can support it for two or three years. ”

This is Kuai Yue's plan, gather the crowd and stick to it, and not fight with Guan Yu. As long as you are undefeated, you can hold Jingzhou. Because Kuai Yue knew that the reason why the Guan family father and son built Xinye and insisted on camping in Xinye was to guard against Cao Cao in the north.

The father and son of the Guan family will never storm Xiangfan at all costs.

Kuai Yue is accurate, he has a good understanding, he sees it very thoroughly, from the last time Guan Yu beat Fan Cheng, but he retreated, he knew the intention of the Guan family's father and son.

Therefore, he set up this strategy of gathering the crowd and holding on to it, so that he could sit back and relax.

Cai Mao and Zhang Yun didn't have any changes in their expressions when they heard this, but they felt embarrassed when they looked at each other, because the reason why the Jingzhou Navy was so dilapidated was because they were collecting money with their hands.

As for Kuai Yue's strategy, the two are very convinced. Immediately, the two reported the matter to Liu Cong, and then issued an order in Liu Cong's name.

The reinforcement of the reinforcement, the garrison of the garrison.

And at this moment, Zhang Fei and Li Zheng have been separated from Liao Hua and Ding Feng, and the water army and foot soldiers have not gone fast. Zhang Fei and Li were along the north bank of the Han River to join Guan Yu and increase Guan Yu's forces to attack Fancheng.

Liao Hua, Ding Feng commanded the naval army, Zhuge Liang planned to fight a battle with Liu Biao's naval army in Hengjiang, if he could win, it could also cause turmoil in the hearts of the people, and then simply abandoned Fancheng and went south to besiege Xiangyang.

After all, as long as there is a water army, and the area around Xiangyang is a plain, the Han River is gentle here, and the river can be crossed anywhere.

The odds are also very good.

But when news came from Xiangyang, Liu Cong ordered the navy not to fight, and the defenders of Xiangyang closed the city gate, Zhuge Liang knew that this time to attack Xiangfan, there was no chance of winning the war.

Unless Liu Qi can persuade Wen Ping to surrender.

Above the Han River.

Sparkling, calm waves. On this huge river, only Liao Hua and Ding Feng's warships are rampant, and there are no other small fishing boats.

Fancheng can be seen in the north, and Xiangyang City can be seen in the south.

It's really like a crab, but unfortunately it's not used by birds. Zhuge Liang needs to defeat the opponent's naval army before he can carry out further actions, but the opponent can't shrink back, what should he do?

On one of Liao Hua's ships, Zhuge Liang stood at the bow of the boat, Liao Hua stood by his side with a sword on his side, this sturdy fat man was rewarded by Guan Ping for the last time he kidnapped Liu Yan, and he was very angry at the moment.

"In my opinion, the Jingzhou Navy is just a person who has collapsed. When he saw me Liaohua, he didn't dare to go out to fight and made a shrinking turtle. Liao Hua was very angry, his hands were crossed on his waist, and he was proud.

Zhuge Liang separated from Zhang Fei this time, just to use the water army as a breakthrough. And the reason why he was on Liaohua's ship was because he was familiar with Liaohua's Laozi Liao Ming.

On the contrary, he was not familiar with Ding Feng, so he naturally stayed on the Liaohua ship.

Zhuge Liang has always known that Liao Ming has an unsuccessful son, and he has also heard of Liao Hua's absurd acts, and he also knows that Liao Hua deceived Liu Yan.

Moreover, Zhuge Liang knew that Liao Hua and Ding Feng were both capable of fighting, looking at the new and sturdy warships around them, and watching the sergeants on the ships, they were all full of energy and high morale.

Zhuge Liang saw that Liao Hua and Ding Feng's water army were so strong, so he dared to lead the second army of eight or nine thousand people to float across the river, intending to defeat a large number of water troops in Xiangyang.

But it's a pity, it's one thing to have strength, it's another thing to be able to fight.

"This must not be the strategy of Cai Mao and Zhang Yun, but Kuai Yue's strategy. With this person, Jingzhou is difficult to capture. Zhuge Liang sighed in his heart, and the goose feathers fanned his shoulders, not for a moment.

At this time, Zhuge Liang could only put his hope on whether Liu Qi could open the gate of Fancheng, but I am afraid it would be extremely difficult.

If Liu Qi can go to Fancheng without Liu Biao dying of illness and Wen Ping knowing, and then trick Wen Ping out and take Wen Ping by surprise, he can set Fancheng.

And now Liu Cong has succeeded to the throne, and his name is justified. The general is loyal and brave, how can he be derelict in his duties again?

However, although Xiangfan cannot be attacked, it can also encroach on Jingzhou. Liu Qi is a piece of beautiful jade, and his value is immeasurable. Zhuge Liang thought for a moment and said to Liao Hua: "Captain Liao, choose a boat to send me to the north shore to see the Marquis of Hanshou." ”

After a pause, Zhuge Liang said solemnly: "Captain Liao and Captain Ding must remember that if the other party fights, they can fight on the river." If the other party guards the water village, it is not possible to attack the water village, and the gains outweigh the losses. ”

"No." Because of his father's relationship, Liao Hua also knew that Kong Ming was talented, and because Guan Ping told Zhang Fei, Zhang Fei told Liao Hua that although Kong Ming was named to join the army, he was actually handsome. Therefore, Liao Hua was very convinced, promised a word, and sent someone to send Zhuge Liang to the north shore, and after landing on the shore, Zhuge Liang rode his horse to Guan Yu's camp and galloped away.

Like the last attack on Fancheng, Guan Yu led the generals to set up camp north of Fancheng, but this time there was more Li Zheng.

Guan Yu knew that this Li was Guan Ping's favorite general, and he did not despise it, and treated him politely.

However, unlike the last time, Guan Yu did not order the siege of the city this time, but asked Liu Qi to meet Wen Ping.

After all, before leaving, Yin Guan also told Guan Yu that if Wen Ping did not leave the city, he could not attack Fancheng. Can't beat it.

So at this moment, although the two sides are facing each other, each of them is arrayed, but in fact, there is no murderous atmosphere in the air.

Outside the north gate of Fancheng, Liu Qi stood under the city surrounded by a small number of entourage. He's been here for a while, and he's here to talk to Wen Ping.

The defenders of the city saw that Liu Qi did not dare to slack off, so they went to find Wen Ping. Soon after, Wen Ping walked up to the city wall and came to the city gate.

The No. 1 general in Jingzhou is now a high mountain in front of the Guan family's father and son, and it is also a high mountain in front of Sun Quan in history.

At this moment, Wen Ping was wearing armor, clasped his hands into fists, and said to Liu Qi under the city: "Big Prince, Wen Ping is here." ”

"Cai Mao, Zhang Yunnai is a flattering minister who confuses his father. And now my eldest son cannot succeed to the throne, but my brother succeeds him. This is not only inconsistent with the etiquette law, but also difficult to calm people's hearts. I want to use the power of the Marquis of Hanshou to go south to compete for the throne. The general has always been loyal and brave, can you walk with me? ”

Liu Qi tightened the reins of the horse to avoid the war horse under him, and said to the Wen Ping in the city with his head held high.

Wen Ping was silent for a moment, and then sighed: "The eldest prince is the eldest son, but he cannot succeed to the throne. I sighed in my heart, too. But at this moment, the big event is decided, what can I do about it? ”

Seeing this, Liu Qi continued to rein in his horse and said loudly: "With the help of Han Shouhou and the help of the general, it is not difficult to enter Xiangyang." ”

"If the Marquis of Hanshou enters Jingzhou, then is Jingzhou your eldest prince or the Marquis of Hanshou?" Seeing Liu Qi entangled, Wen Ping asked this sentence.

Liu Qi was silent for a long time when he heard this, of course Liu Qi also wanted Jingzhou. This was originally the family business left by Liu Biao, and he should inherit it as the eldest son.

But after Liu Biao died of illness, Liu Qi fled in a hurry and defected to Guan Yu just to save his life. And now Guan Yu drove the ducks to the shelves, and asked him to come to Fancheng to persuade Wen Ping to open the city gate.

Even Liu Qi also knew that if Guan Yu entered Jingzhou, he would inevitably occupy the magpie's nest. Liu Qi doesn't matter, anyway, even if Jingzhou is not obtained by Guan Yu, it is not his.

On the contrary, if Liu Cong, Cai Mao, and Zhang Yun can be pulled off the horse, they can also let out a bad breath.

But obviously, for a general like Wenpin, this is not possible. Wen Ping is loyal and brave, and he also sympathizes with Liu Qi.

But now that Liu Cong has succeeded to the throne, the matter has been settled. The duty of the clerk is to guard the safety of Jingzhou, so it is naturally impossible for him to let Liu Qi in and Guan Yu in.

If the Guan family's father and son attacked Fancheng, Wen Ping would naturally refuse to leave.

But if the Guan family father and son come to Jingzhou, can they still be driven out?

After all, Wen Ping is a loyal minister in Jingzhou, the most capable and loyal minister. He would rather watch Liu Cong succeed to the throne than the Guan family's father and son to occupy Jingzhou.

Liu Qi was asked by Wen Ping's question, but soon declared that if Jingzhou was defeated, the Marquis of Hanshou would definitely let him be the assassin of Jingzhou.

It's a scene.

Liu Qi himself didn't believe it, let alone Wen Hire. So, the two sides exchanged words in the city, and then went back to their respective cities.
