Chapter 297: Contact Huang Zhong
Yuan Yao, Xia Houlan and others had just arrived in Yicheng County and joined Pan Feng, when the news of Liu Biao's death reached their ears, which really caused an uproar.
A few days ago, Liu Biao left Xiangyang City from Xiangyang City under the escort of Jingzhou Sailors and wanted to return to Jiangling City, but now the news that he was dead came out, so how could Yuan Yao and the others accept it. However, after confirming that this news was indeed true, Yuan Yao and the others were even more surprised.
On the way back to Jiangling City, the Jingzhou Sailor was ambushed by Zhou Yu on the Yangtze River waterway, although the number of Jingzhou Sailors exceeded the Jiangdong Sailors, but the combat power was far inferior, in this battle, the Jingzhou Sailors were annihilated, and Cai Mao and Zhang Yun were also buried in the river after the ship was destroyed.
At the end of this ambush battle, Liu Biao and Kuai Yue wanted to drive the holy weapon of the bronze flying horse car to escape from Zhou Yu's ambush circle, but Zhou Yu had already prepared, and when Liu Biao and Kuai Liang used the bronze flying horse, Zhou Yu also took out the holy artifact Green Qiqin, which stimulated the power of this holy weapon to form a cage so that the bronze flying horse car could not escape. In the end, Liu Biao was unwilling to be captured by Zhou Yu, and forcibly burned the power of the blood in his body to fight with Zhou Yu, but Zhou Yu had already set up a large array outside the ambush circle and stopped Liu Biao's final counterattack. As for Kuailiang, he is nowhere to be found.
After Yuan Yao learned the news, he couldn't help but secretly smack his tongue, this Zhou Yu is too fierce, he can still lead the Jiangdong Navy Division to wipe out the Jingzhou Navy Division under the condition of being at a disadvantage in numbers, and also kill Liu Biao, after this battle, I am afraid that Zhou Yu's reputation will resound all over the world.
What Yuan Yao cares about even more is that since Zhou Yu was able to kill Liu Biao, although there was a reason why Zhou Yu had already calculated and laid down a large array, it was enough to show that Zhou Yu's cultivation at this time had definitely stepped into the Void Soul Realm, thinking about Zhou Yu's current age, Yuan Yao only felt that his scalp was numb.
There is also the news that Yuan Yao got the news that Sun Ce broke through the Ninggang Realm and captured Jiangling City, Yuan Yao couldn't help but sigh, this time they had a bloody battle with Liu Biao in Xiangyang City, but in the end, Sun Ce and Zhou Yu benefited. It is estimated that it will not be long before the names of Sun Ce and Zhou Yu will be remembered by the major princes in the world, after all, the performance of these two people is too dazzling, and it is not just a few small actions that can cover their light.
However, to be honest, when he learned the news of Liu Biao's death, Yuan Yao was still a little happy, who told Liu Biao to attack Xiangyang City before, although he failed to defeat it in the end, but it also made Liu Biao on Yuan Yao's blacklist, and now that Liu Biao died in the hands of Zhou Yu, how could Yuan Yao not be happy.
Liu Biao is a member of the Han family, and his identity is actually very noble, and now that he was killed by Zhou Yu in a battle, Yuan Yao is already thinking about whether he can use this matter to discredit the Jiangdong side.
Yuan Yao could guess that Zhou Yu didn't actually want to kill Liu Biao, he just wanted to be captured alive, but Liu Biao was too tough, and he would rather die in battle than be captured, and in the end, Zhou Yu could only do it.
Moreover, Liu Biao's death has another benefit for Yuan Yao, that is, Yuan Yao's hope of subduing Huang Zhong is a little bigger. If it turns out that Liu Biao is not dead, and Yuan Yao's hope of subduing Huang Zhong is only thirty percent, it has now increased to eighty percent.
Liu Biao died in the hands of Zhou Yu, even if Huang Zhong did not regard Liu Biao as his real master, but only as a temporary boss, he could not be put into the Jiangdong side, and now in Jingzhou, except for the Jiangdong side, only Yuan Yao's side is left who can accept Huang Zhong, which is a great advantage for Yuan Yao.
Anyway, Liu Biao is already dead, and with Yuan Yao's current strength, he can't compete with Zhou Yu on the water, so Yuan Yao doesn't have any other ideas, just asks people to call Pan Feng and Xiahoulan over.
They were able to receive the news that Liu Biao was dead, and Huang Zhong and Wen Ping would not be late even if they were late, so if they wanted to subdue Huang Zhong, now was the best time.
Yuan Yao looked at Xiahoulan and Pan Feng, and finally said to Xiahoulan: "Mingheng, this matter will be handed over to you, immediately send someone to contact Huang Zhong and test Huang Zhong's thoughts." ”
Pan Feng and Huang Zhong had fought several battles before, all of which ended with Pan Feng's defeat, and it was not appropriate for Pan Feng to send someone to contact Huang Zhong at this time, so Yuan Yao asked Xiahoulan to go. Xia Houlan had just come to support Pan Feng, and there was no deep hatred between him and Huang Zhong, and the person he sent was more suitable.
Pan Feng also knew Yuan Yao's consideration of such an arrangement, so he just snorted coldly, but he didn't say anything. He could feel that Yuan Yao attached great importance to this matter, although he was very unhappy with Huang Zhong, but he would not stumble Yuan Yao in this matter.
Yuan Yao didn't know Pan Feng's true thoughts, but for Yuan Yao, it didn't matter, the current Yuan Yao already felt that there was a lot to be done to subdue Huang Zhong because of Liu Biao's death, and maybe he could also accept Wen Ping by the way, although Wen Ping was not as good as Huang Zhong, but he was also a good general.
If Liu Biao hadn't died, then Yuan Yao wouldn't have the idea of Wenpin at all, because Wenpin was basically Liu Biao's descendant, and it was almost the same if he wasn't a diehard, but now Liu Biao was dead, and he didn't die in the hands of Yuan Shu, but in the hands of Zhou Yu, which made it hopeful to accept Wenpin.
Although Wen Ping and Yuan Shu also have a lot of grudges, compared to the big feud that Liu Biao was killed by Zhou Yu, the grudge between them and Yuan Shu's forces is completely negligible. However, it is not a good time to find a way to subdue Wenpin, and it is best to take action against Wenpin after Huang Zhong is resolved.
Now Wenpin has become angry because of the news of Liu Biao's death, and it may be counterproductive to contact him at this time, and let Wenpin do some irrational behavior, which is not good.
But Huang Zhong won't, Huang Zhong didn't regard Liu Biao as a lord for whom he could die, but only regarded Liu Biao as a boss, Liu Biao needed his strength, and he also needed Liu Biao to care about Huang Xu's illness, therefore, Huang Zhong would react to Liu Biao's death, but he would not react too much, at least he would deal with some information rationally.
That night, after Huang Zhong noticed the person sent by Xiahoulan, he wanted to kill him with a knife, but at the last moment, he temporarily changed his mind and put forward a condition to the person, asking him to bring this condition back and inform Xiahoulan.
