Zhao Hui returned to Xiangyang first.

"Yuan Zhi, Feng Xiao, is there any news of Liu Bei?"

The nine counties of Jingzhou have now been stabilized, and Zhao Hui sent someone to take over before, which has achieved initial results.

In these counties of Jingzhou, as long as there was no resistance before, Zhao Hui did not move them.

But later, Zhao Hui can't guarantee it.

If these officials in Jingzhou do things like corruption and bend the law later, Zhao Hui will still deal with them.

As for now, they can be directly punished for their crimes.

Jingzhou is too vast, even if Zhao Hui has cultivated a lot of talents over the years, it is impossible to change all the officials in Jingzhou all at once.

Even the officials of Yuzhou and Yanzhou, Zhao Hui are only a small part of them now.

Now for the time being, it can only target those officials who are really lawless, if it is just petty greed and filth, Zhao Hui can only turn a blind eye for the time being.

It is a long process to sweep away all corrupt officials.

It is not only necessary to find evidence that these officials and ordinary people are guilty, but also to continuously cultivate virtuous officials and officials.

It will take years, more than ten years, step by step.

There will come a time when there will be more honest and honest officials than corrupt officials.

The current Jingzhou, although far from meeting the final requirements in Zhao Hui's heart, has now met Zhao Hui's initial requirements.

During this time, Guo Jia and Xu Shu's main work was to stabilize Jingzhou and Yangzhou.

In addition, there is also the arrest of Liu Bei.

"There is no news of Liu Bei yet." Xu Shu said.

Zhao Hui said: "Is there a direction now?" ”

There are not many roads from Jingzhou to Yizhou, and Liu Bei can choose only a few.

In addition, there are some mountain roads that can also reach Yizhou.

"From the information collected so far, Liu Bei may enter Sichuan from these two roads." Guo Jia spread out the map and said.

Although Liu Bei was not found, the people who sent it out still found some traces.

Liu Bei and his party also have nearly 100 people, so as long as they walk through, they will leave a little trace.

Even if Liu Bei walked all the way and erased the traces all the way, it was impossible to erase all the traces.

Now it is near Jingshan and Tanshui, and there are traces of it.

Although the traces are often broken, it can be seen that they are roughly facing the west.

There are two places, and it is impossible to determine which one is Liu Bei.

The other place could be a medicine farmer or a hunter.

But it is also possible that Liu Bei and his party have now been divided into two actions.

Because under normal circumstances, even medicine farmers and hunters also have a purpose in the mountains, and they will basically move within a region, and rarely cross states.

Jingshan and Tanshui, one is in the north, and the east is Chibi. The pool is in the south.

After crossing Jingshan Mountain, and walking a few hundred miles to the west, you will enter the boundary of Yizhou.

Although the pond water is not directly connected to Yizhou, it can also enter Yizhou along the pond water to the west.

"I'm going to go to Jingshan in person." Zhao Hui said.

He must prevent Liu Bei from entering Yizhou.

Although, he had already sent an envoy to Yizhou, and with Liu Zhang's character, he did not dare to oppose Zhao Hui.

However, let Liu Bei go to Yizhou, and it was not Liu Zhang who would be the one who spoke later.

Ten Liu Zhangs can't play one Liu Bei, not to mention Pang Tong's help.

In addition, there are many people under Liu Zhang's command who are dissatisfied with Liu Zhang and are willing to cooperate with Liu Bei to seize Yizhou.

Although Yizhou has been stable in the hands of Liu Zhang's father over the years, not all the people's hearts have belonged to Liu Zhang.

And there is also Zhang Lu entrenched in Hanzhong in the north.

Even if Liu Zhang agreed to Zhao Hui, after Liu Bei arrived in Yizhou, he would send troops to arrest Liu Bei and send Liu Bei to Zhao Hui.

Zhao Hui was not afraid of Liu Zhang's disagreement, but was worried that Liu Zhang's ability would not be good and he would not be able to catch Liu Bei, but he would be countered by Liu Bei.

On the Yangzhou side, it has been basically decided, and Zhao Hui now has enough energy to pursue Liu Bei.

On the day he returned to Xiangyang, after confirming that Liu Bei might be in Jingshan, Zhao Hui led his personal guards to Jingshan in person on the same day.

The highest peak of Jingshan is 800 zhang high, and the mountain is also continuous for hundreds of miles.

There are many fierce beasts in the mountains, and the mountain roads are steep, which is very difficult to walk.

Even local residents rarely go deep into the mountains.

The woodcutter is only on the periphery, and the hunter does not enter the central area.

Even if it is Liu Bei, it is estimated that he will not enter the central area, unless he can't avoid Zhao Jun's search, he will enter the central area.

Jingshan is already steep, the mountain road is steep and narrow, and no one enters the central area all year round, and even a small road cannot be found.

Zhao Hui led 200 guards and rode a war horse to the foot of Jingshan Mountain, and then 200 people abandoned their horses and entered the mountain.

Except for Zhao Hui's mount, the yellow lion, other people's war horses are difficult to walk in Jing Mountain.

Although the yellow lion can't walk on the ground in the mountains, it is difficult to reach it due to general obstacles, and it can jump directly over it.

Zhao Hui has not experienced jungle warfare for a long time.

Jingshan is densely wooded, with countless poisonous insects and beasts, but Zhao Hui, who entered Jingshan, is like a fish in water.

His combat power in the mountains and forests is stronger than that of the warriors in those mountain lands.

Not only by force, but also by survivability in the jungle, by stealth.

If Zhao Hui hid alone in the mountains and forests, he could live forever and guarantee that his existence would not be discovered.

The ability to survive in the mountains and forests is that even those hunters can't compare to Zhao Hui.

The two hundred guards under his command are the strongest warriors in the Han Dynasty.

They are good at foot combat, they are good at horse fighting, and they are also good at jungle warfare.

Everyone is from the king of the forest, in the mountains and forests, can fight with the tigers.

Each of them had a sword in his hand, a bow and arrow, and a small shield.

Weapons and equipment are also the best among all the soldiers of the Han Dynasty.

Their armament is no worse than that of a heavily armored cavalryman.

Whether it is a sword, a bow and an arrow, or a shield, it is made of the finest steel, and the bowstrings are all made of the finest ox tendon.

It would be a nightmare for other beasts for such a group of people to enter the mountains and forests.

If Liu Bei was really hit by Zhao Hui in this mountain, he would be even more dangerous than outside the mountain forest.

Two hundred people, without much dry food on them, just plunged headlong into Jingshan.

Begin to carefully search for clues.

I don't dare to say that the two hundred people are all trace inspection experts, but everyone has learned before, how to feel the traces, how to find the traces.

Moreover, although Zhao Hui hadn't entered the jungle for a long time, his skills were not unfamiliar, and many memories filled his mind at once.

These memories are incomparably deeper, and he will never forget them for the rest of his life.

However, Jingshan is vast, and if Liu Bei and his party are really here, the places they have walked are very limited, and it is still very difficult to find Liu Bei.

Before Zhao Hui arrived, Guo Jia and Xu Shu had already arranged for spies to scout in this mountain forest.
