Chapter 696: Tossing Liu Biao
Liu Biao's expression was rich when he received Zhang Yu's request for supplies.
"Huh~ Zhang Yu has always been so shameless, if he is given supplies, he is the enemy, and he will still do it." Liu Biao exhaled and held back the breath in his chest.
Liu Biao is a lot older, this Jingzhou is not peaceful, and there are too many things for him to worry about.
Especially after the Kuai brothers died and left, the strength of his staff was greatly reduced, and no one could balance Cai Mao and let Cai Mao grow quickly.
Originally, there were still families of Huang Chengyan, Pang Degong and others who could check and balance Cai Mao, but after Zhang Yu became deeply involved in this matter, these families all withdrew from the Jingzhou dispute, and they still had a high status in Jingzhou, but they were not involved in the power struggle.
All this is because of Zhang Yu, Cai Mao understands it very well.
It's just that he understands it too well, so he hates Zhang Yu like never before.
If it weren't for Zhang Yu, he wouldn't have lost most of his power.
Therefore, Zhang Yu extorted materials, but he refused to give them anyway.
However, his staff proposed that if he didn't give Zhang Yu, he would cause trouble and use the name of King Bohai to create public opinion.
"Okay, then give him some supplies, and send someone to send Zhang Yu a hundred loads of grain and a hundred pieces of cloth." Liu Biao listened to the words of the staff and said.
This is obviously to insult Zhang Yu, 100,000 troops, what use can this little material be.
Naturally, it was useless at all, but Liu Biao gave it.
Zhang Yu wants it, Liu Biao gives it, so what else does Zhang Yu have to say?
Liu Biao was proud, and being able to humiliate Zhang Yu was also a big victory.
Liu Biao immediately sent someone to do it, and he was very proud.
More than an hour later, Zhang Yu received the supplies.
"Hehe, this Liu Biao still has the heart to humiliate me at this time, it seems that our strategy is very successful, and he didn't find it at all. There is no one in Jingzhou. Zhang Yu looked at the supplies brought back by the soldiers and said.
Zhang Yu pointed to the materials and said to Yu Ban, Xiahoudun, Xiahou Yuan and Cao Ang on the side: "This Liu Jingsheng is the pastor of Jingzhou, and his gas is so small, no wonder he doesn't know how to lose Jingzhou, if Cao Cao is facing this situation, what do you say?" ”
Zhang Yu asked a few people.
They are all Cao Cao's people, the difference is that this Yu Ban has already belonged to Zhang Yu, and the Xiahou brothers and Cao Ang are currently hostages of Zhang Yu.
A few of them didn't know Zhang Yu's plan, but they really felt that Liu Biao was stingy and would use this little trick to humiliate Zhang Yu.
It's just that they don't know that this Liu Biao is about to be driven crazy.
Liu Biao is not happy at all, he has lost most of his power, and now he can humiliate Zhang Yu a little, and his heart can be more balanced.
Who would have known that a dignified state pastor would be like this.
Zhang Yu accepted these materials calmly, and then he didn't say anything.
Zhang Yu was still outside Xiangyang City, they were only under a city wall, and they were not besieged.
There was no siege, because Zhang Yu claimed from the beginning that he was passing by and was not here to attack Xiangyang, so he didn't think about besieging the city.
Although there was no siege, although Liu Biao had more soldiers and horses than Zhang Yu, but in this way, Liu Biao was still very worried and afraid of Zhang Yu.
What Liu Biao is most afraid of is that he and Cai Mao will join forces.
Liu Biao was worried inside the city, while Zhang Yu had no movement after the construction outside the city was completed, and he never attacked.
Zhang Yu has been in the city for five days, and Liu Biao was very nervous from the beginning, and he was ready for battle, but now he has also relaxed a little.
"It's time to move."
As soon as this Liu Biao was loosened, Zhang Yu began to act.
20,000 infantry began training early.
This training of troops, the slogan was naturally very loud, which alarmed the defenders of the city, and then alarmed Liu Biao and his staff in the city.
Liu Biao was still asleep, was pulled up from the bed by the soldiers, and then rushed to the main hall.
At this time, his staff had not yet arrived, and after waiting for a while, a group of staff members were also pulled up in their sleep.
"Zhang Yu really did it, he must have felt that he couldn't extort anything, and he couldn't help it." Liu Biao said.
Several staff members also hurried over to come up with ideas.
"Lord Zhou Mu, Zhang Yu can't help it, we only need to give him a head-on blow, and his little strength naturally doesn't dare to come strongly."
"Lord Zhou Mu, once Zhang Yu attacks, we will attack and fight a battle, so that he will retreat."
"Zhang Yu is also bullying others and not daring to fight back."
A few of his staff began to come up with ideas.
If Zhang Yu was there, he would definitely die of laughter, the level of these so-called staff members was too poor.
In the past, the Kuai brothers had a high level and could compete with Cai Mao, but now these staff members are just indiscriminate.
The ideas of a few staff members were not very good, if there was really a war, Zhang Yu could easily defeat them.
Liu Biao had no better way but to adopt theirs.
The order was quickly passed down.
But Zhang Yu and the others trained under the city and did not attack.
Liu Biao and the others waited anxiously for a long time, but there was no movement.
Everyone waited until they were hungry.
"Report to the state pastor, Zhang Yu's soldiers and horses have been withdrawn." The herald reported.
One of the staff members said: "Lord Zhou Mu, this Zhang Yu is really pretending, he wants to lure us out of the city. ”
"Zhang Yu must have an ambush."
"And when Zhang Yu can't help it, he will be impatient and easy to make mistakes."
The crowd began to come up with ideas again.
In this way, they could finally have a good lunch, and Zhang Yu didn't bother them.
Zhang Yu, why did they suddenly withdraw?
Because the training was over, it was naturally withdrawn.
After lunch, Liu Biao and the others continued to wait.
Zhang Yu and the others started training again after an hour and a half of lunch, this time with a different army.
Liu Biao and the others were closely observing again, and the army under the city and above the city had already been prepared.
A large number of archers were arranged to carry a large amount of supplies.
When necessary, they have to fight with Zhang Yu and them.
But Zhang Yu's army was still training below, and they had no intention of fighting at all.
This will make Liu Biao and the others tossed.
Liu Biao's health is not good, he is old, and he hasn't rested in the middle, so he can't hold on.
Liu Biao really wanted to rest, but Zhang Yu's training was going on.
In the evening, the cavalry had eaten dinner in advance, and the infantry had not rested, and they began to train again.
As in Wancheng, they trained around the city, except that they did not shoot arrows at Xiangyang City.
Such a toss made it difficult for Liu Biao to sleep.
Where did he dare to sleep, he had no appetite for eating, and he was exhausted.
The other staff members are similar, all of them are elderly.
In the middle of the night, Liu Biao and the others finally couldn't hold on to rest.
But I can't get a good rest.
Because there were still shouts outside the city, I just fell asleep and was woken up by the shouting.
Others are awakened by nightmares.
Zhang Yu was tossing the entire Xiangyang, but it was a pity that Liu Biao didn't even dare to fight, didn't dare to send troops to take the initiative to attack, didn't dare to attack Zhang Yu, and didn't dare to provoke Cai Mao.
