Chapter 818: Changes in Jingzhou
Liu Biao had no idea, and was even more confused by everyone's persuasion.
He said: "We have 30,000 soldiers, and we should have no problem holding out for a month." Let's wait and see for a while, if Xu Ding can win, we will take refuge in Xu Ding. If Sun Cao Liu can win, we will take refuge in Sun Cao Liu. ”
"Uh..."
The generals were speechless.
Kuai Yue, Kuai Liang, and Wen Ping are all firmly on Xu Ding's side.
After the adjournment of the meeting.
They get together.
Kuai Yue said: "The general intends to accept us, if it is delayed for a long time, I am afraid that the general will be suspicious." It's better to strike first! ”
"What do you mean, sir?" Wen asked the clerk.
"Most of Jingzhou's military power is in the hands of Cai Mao, we will take Cai Mao and force the lord to make a decision." Kuai Yue's words were amazing.
"This..." Kuai Liang hesitated.
Wen Ping flatly refused and said: "The lord treats us well, and we can't do anything sorry for the lord." If you want to take refuge in the general, you should also persuade each other with good words, how can you force each other with a sword? ”
"If you don't force each other with a sword, how can you make Liu Biao obey?"
The Kuai clan is a big family of Jingxiang, and they have made a lot of money over the years. In order to revitalize the family business, of course, we will try our best to support Xu Ding. However, Wenpin was reluctant to do that.
Kuai Liang hurriedly said: "When the interruption continues, it will be chaotic." If you don't make a decision again, when Zhou Yu arrives, everything will be over... ”
Kuai Yue kept staring at Wen Ping, and seeing Wen Ping's resolute attitude, he said to Kuai Liang: "What General Wen Ping said is not unreasonable. Let's take a long-term view of this matter. ”
"Big brother..."
"Listen to me, think long-term." Kuai Yue winked at him.
"I'll go back to the camp first, you think of a way, and then notify me, and I will fully cooperate. But... I would rather die if I betrayed my lord. Unless the lord takes the initiative to take refuge in Xu Ding. Wen Ping finished speaking and left.
Kuai Liang asked puzzledly: "Big brother, why did you stop me just now?" ”
"Wen Ping Yu is loyal to Liu Biao, if we continue to talk about it, there will be no result. If you provoke him and take us to see Liu Biao, won't you be caught in the net? ”
"So what to do?"
Kuai Yue walked back and forth, suddenly raised his eyebrows, and snorted: "Liu Biao doesn't have many troops around him. As long as his nephew Zhang Hu led a thousand spearmen. If we gather private troops, we may be able to take Liu Biao! ”
"Huh?"
These words frightened Kuai Liangdu.
This is a real rebellion.
Kuai Yue said: "Liu Biao is cowardly and the situation is indecisive, if he feels that he is afraid that Zhou Yu has entered Xiangyang City, he will hesitate." At the end of the day, we'll all have to be buried with him. Why don't you take the plunge! ”
"I listen to my eldest brother."
Kuai Liang also made up his mind.
As a big family of Jingxiang, the Kuai family has business contacts all the year round, and there are many private soldiers under him. If they were all assembled, there would be at least three thousand. But now only Liu Biao is captured, but those troops are not needed. As long as you gather 2,000 and take them by surprise, you can do it.
The two brothers said they would do it.
In just three days, 1,700 people were secretly assembled and ambushed in Xiangyang City.
At this time, Zhou Yu's army had already landed in Yungang.
It only takes one day to get to Xiangyang.
Kuai Yue did not hesitate any longer.
That night, he led the army to surround the Assassin's Mansion and arrested Liu Biao.
During this period, Zhang Hu led the spearmen to arrive, but was blocked outside the Assassin's Mansion.
"Lord, Zhou Yu's army is approaching Xiangyang, if you don't make a decision, you can only die." Kuai Yue knelt down and said: "The minister is not rebelling today, he just wants to ask the lord to make a decision." ”
"You guys..." Liu Biao was about to explode.
He never thought that Kuai Yue and Kuai Liang would force the palace.
"Big brother, don't talk to him." Kuai Liangke did not have the good temper and patience of Kuai Yue, and said to Liu Biao: "The matter has come to this, you do what we say, and you can live." If you don't, I'll kill you right away." ”
"Hahaha..." Liu Biao smiled and said: "I am nearly seventy years old, and I don't have much time left, am I afraid that you will not succeed?" ”
"Aren't you afraid?" Kuai Liang directly put the knife on Liu Biao's neck.
Liu Biao was also hard-hearted, he didn't even look at it, and closed his eyes.
Kuai Yue slowly stood up and said to the soldiers at the door, "Go and bring Childe." ”
"No."
A little, Liu Biao's son Liu Cong was taken to the house.
Liu Cong is nearly ten years old, born to the Cai family, and is also Cai Mao's nephew. With him in hand, he can not only hold Liu Biao hostage, but also Cai Mao and Cai Mao's sister. It is precisely for this reason that Kuai Yue dared to take this step.
Liu Cong was pushed into the house.
Kuai Liang used a knife to change his face a few times, and said to Liu Biao: "Liu Biao, let me ask you again, is it down or not?" If you hesitate any longer, I will let you cut off your children and grandchildren! ”
This trick is ruthless enough.
Liu Biao's face changed suddenly, and he softened directly: "You... What do you want me to do? ”
Kuai Yue arched his hand and said: "Please write a letter first, send someone to send it to Zhou Yu, and say that he is willing to surrender to him." But it takes half a month to clean up finely. And let Zhou Yu wait in Gangneung. The lord wrote another letter and sent it to Xudu to surrender to the general. Ask the general to send troops to Jingzhou and take over the city. ”
According to the current situation, if Liu Biao did not agree, his son Liu Cong would definitely be killed. Even if he was unwilling to surrender under duress, he had to do so.
Liu Biao reluctantly agreed: "Okay, I'll write." ”
Kuai Yue handed the letter to an official and asked him to meet Zhou Yu. At the same time, he sent a guest to Xudu.
But.
Before the two letters were sent out of the city, the Kuai brothers received a shocking piece of news.
Xu Ding, who went to Luoyang to fight Cao Cao, was ambushed by Cao Cao and lost a battle. It is said that a large amount of fire oil appeared in this battle, turning the battlefield within a radius of more than ten miles into a fire cave.
After Xu Ding's defeat, he retreated to the Tiger Prison Pass and did not take a step forward.
This news is very bad for the Kuai brothers.
They had to wonder if Xu Ding, who had never even fought Cao Cao, could defeat Sun Cao Liu's alliance?
If Xu Ding is defeated, they will also be buried with him.
"Big brother, are we still taking refuge in Xu Ding? Still is... Take refuge in Sun Jian? Kuai Yue asked after doubts.
"Victory or defeat is a common thing in soldiers, and only losing for a while doesn't mean anything. Maybe Xu Ding is pretending to be defeated, but he is actually luring Cao Cao? Kuai Yue still said firmly: "Take refuge in Xu Ding!" ”
"Okay...."
Kuai Liang decided to take a gamble.
He had the letters sent away.
Zhou Yu's army marched to the vicinity of Changban Slope and received a letter from Kuaiyue.
Zhou Yu didn't take Liu Biao in his eyes, for him, Xiangyang was at his fingertips. But the enemy has already deliberately surrendered, and he cannot refuse either. So he promised to return to Gangneung and wait for half a month before going to Xiangyang.
Xu Du.
Xi Zhicai, who is in charge of handling state affairs, also received a letter from Kuai Yue.
There is also a guest from Iraq.
Xi Zhicai met Yi and had a very pleasant conversation with him.
After a few words, Yi said: "Jingzhou is facing the threat of Sun Jian, and Zhou Yu personally led a large army to Jiangling... Mr. Kuai dragged him down, but... Only half a month. If the Huaxia army does not arrive within half a month, I am afraid that Jingzhou will fall into the hands of Sun Jian. ”
Xi Zhicai said: "Please rest assured, Mr. Yi, I will immediately send troops to Jingzhou." ”
"Lord Xie..."
Ichiwan didn't expect things to go so smoothly.
Xi Zhicai didn't even ask for extra words, so he agreed to send troops.
"My lord, how many troops are you going to send to Jingzhou?"
"Eighteen thousand, that's enough."
"Only eighteen thousand?" Yi Yuan frowned and said, "Isn't this a little little?" ”
Xi Zhicai smiled: "It's already a lot." Of my 18,000 soldiers, 15,000 are the white horse servants of General Gongsun Zhan, who are very good at field warfare. Zhou Yu will not dare to compete with it. Secondly, I will let Lu Yu and Lu Su lead 3,000 sailors into Neijiang. Cutting off Zhou Yu's retreat, he didn't dare to fight alone in Xiangyang. ”
"Okay."
Yi knows Gongsun Zhan's white horse righteous servant, and his combat effectiveness is extremely strong.
And Zhou Yu's soldiers were mostly foot soldiers and were not good at field combat.
Plus 30,000 Jingzhou troops, it was enough to deal with the situation in Xiangyang.
Next.
Xi Zhicai took Yi to Qian County.
Gongsun Zhan's army was stationed there.
was originally going to block Zhou Yu, but who expected Zhou Yu to go to Jingzhou. That's fine, you don't have to guard it, just go to Jingzhou.
After receiving the order, Gongsun Chan rushed to Nanyang with his Iraqi nationality.
Then pass through Fancheng and cross the Neijiang River.
Fifteen days should be enough for the distance.
In addition to Gongsun Zhan's White Horse Yicong, there were also Lu Su and Lu Yu stationed in Yangzhou, who also led the naval army eastward. With lightning speed, he entered Neijiang and cut off Zhou Yu's retreat.
Tiger Prison Pass.
Xu Dinggang fought a defeated battle.
All the armies retreated here.
"We just found out that Cao Cao went to attack Jiuyuan County last time, and when he came back, he discovered an oil field not far from Chang'an. After that, he sent people to mine. That's why there's a lot of oil. Guo Jiadao.
"Why did you say something so important? Are all vegetarians? Xu Ding remembered the big battle a few days ago, but he was still shocked.
"Your Majesty, Cao Cao has a large amount of oil oil, and I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to win. It is better to seal the Tiger Prison Pass first, mobilize a large army to eliminate Sun Jian and Liu Bei, and then Cao Cao in Xutu. Guo Jiadao.
"No! We've come here, and we can't change our strategy just because we lose a battle. Besides, the princes everywhere are waiting for our news. If Luoyang is not captured as soon as possible, they may fall to Sun Cao Liu. It will be more troublesome then. Xu Ding's mind was racing, thinking of various ways.
Zhao Yun walked in.
Xu Ding asked: "How many soldiers did we lose in the last battle?" ”
Zhao Yun arched his hand and said: "Back to Your Majesty, more than half of the casualties of each army have been killed, total... More than 60,000. ”
"So much?"
Xu Ding and Guo Jia were taken aback.
Zhao Yun added: "However, most of the soldiers were only burned by fire. The number of soldiers who really died was less than 5,000. ”
Xu Ding patted his chest: "Zilong, you scared me." ”
"Although there are not many soldiers killed in battle, the enemy's flame offensive is extremely powerful, and I am afraid that the soldiers will be afraid." Guo Jia instructed Zhao Yun: "Zilong will return to the camp quickly and appease the soldiers." ”
"No."
Zhao Yun glanced at Xu Ding, and after Xu Ding's head was fixed, he turned around and left.
"Fengxiao, do you have a way to deal with Cao Cao's oil?" Xu Ding returned to his seat.
Guo Jia glanced outside the tent and replied: "The ministers look at the clouds in the sky, today and tomorrow, there will be heavy rain." It's better to choose to fight Cao Cao when it's raining, and his fire oil will not be able to work. ”
That's a good idea.
Ran Xu Ding remembered that he fought with Cao Cao a few days ago, and the amount of fire oil that Cao Cao took out was extremely large, and he couldn't help but worry: "The fire oil ignites a fire, and it is not easy to extinguish." If Cao Cao uses it a lot, it's useless when it rains, right? ”
Guo Jia said: "It's really hard to extinguish the oil, but it's not so bad that even the rain can't be extinguished, right?" ”
"Then give it a try." Xu Dingdao: "When it rains, we choose to attack Luoyang City in the second half of the night." Cao Cao would never have imagined that we were not only attacking the city at night, but also when it was raining heavily. Although it had an impact on us, we had to overcome it in order to avoid being attacked by the fire oil. ”
"Yes."
Xu Ding and Guo Jia's plan was realized soon after.
The next afternoon.
The sky was dark and cloudy.
After that, it rained heavily.
People are standing in the rain, their vision is blocked, and it is difficult for them to walk.
Xu Ding called all the generals to discuss the war against Luoyang.
"Sit down."
A sand table is placed in the middle of the living room.
Xu Ding put his hands behind his back and said, "Now the princes of the world are all looking at us. Some want us to win, some want us to lose. But for us, there is only victory, not defeat. Because the victory or defeat of the Battle of Luoyang is not only related to our war with Cao Cao, but also related to whether the princes decide to submit to the Huaxia State. ”
"This is our first big war since the founding of the country, and I hope that... Don't let the princes see the joke. ”
The veteran Huang Zhong arched his hand and said: "We have four armies in the Luoyang area, with more than 100,000 troops, far better than Cao Cao. It's just that his oil is so powerful that he can't win for a while. ”
"About the oil ... Xu Ding glanced at Guo Jia and said with a smile: "Fengxiao has a way to deal with it. ”
"We're going to capture Luoyang City tonight!"
"Huh? Tonight? The generals were amazed.
Zhao Yun said: "Back to Your Majesty, it's still raining heavily outside." ”
"It was because of the heavy rain that we were going to go on the expedition. Because Cao Cao's oil is difficult to exert in the rain. And we can act on the camera and seize Luoyang. ”
The generals understood.
No wonder it was raining at night, and Xu Ding also summoned everyone.
It turned out that he was going to attack on a rainy night.
Huang Zhong raised his eyebrows slightly and said: "Your Majesty has a good plan, Cao Cao must not think of it." ”
"But it's hard for us to attack the city on a rainy night." Zhao Yundao.
"No matter how hard it is, you have to attack, this is the only chance." Xu Ding looked at Jia Xu: "Wenhe, you are the commander of the Sharp Blade Army, and you are the first Wenchen in my country to lead the troops, and all the troops are firearms, I have high hopes for you." ”
"Please command, Your Majesty, the minister will never give up." Jia Xu replied.
"Okay."
Xu Ding pointed to the upper right corner of the sand table: "Three hundred miles north of Luoyang, is Cao Cao's camp. He stationed his army there in order to deal with Xiaopingjin and Luoyang, and at the same time prevent our army from crossing Luoyang and attacking Hangu Pass. I want you to lead the Blade Army and entangle Cao Cao. Within a day, don't let him come to Luoyang, can you do it? ”
"You can do it. Commanded. Jia Xu didn't think much about it.
The Blade Army was full of firearms, as well as a large amount of explosives and grenades, and it was not difficult to entangle Cao Cao.
"Zilong."
"Yes." Zhao Yun is out of the ranks.
Xu Ding asked, "Do you know why I named your army Sharp Knife?" ”
