Liu Biao greeted him outside the city and took Liu Bei to the camp to meet Wen Ping.

Liu Biao's eldest son, Liu Qi, came up to meet Liu Bei.

Liu Biao said with a smile: "Qi'er heard that Brother Xian led the army to fight against the traitor Zhang Xian, and asked to go on the expedition with Brother Xian, I saw that Qi'er has also grown up, and I should let him see some battle formations, so let him supervise the transportation of grain and grass." ”

Liu Bei said with a smile: "It's better to have a virtuous nephew involved, now that the Han is restless, it's also good to let the virtuous nephew see some military formations." ”

Liu Biao's ex-wife Chen had two sons, and after Liu Biao became the assassin of Jingzhou, in order to stabilize Jingzhou, he married the sister of Cai Mao of the Cai family of the Jingzhou clan as his wife. Cai's young and beautiful, Liu Biao is suave and suave, and he loves Cai's in every way, while Chen's is depressed and dies within a few years.

At this time, the eldest son Liu Qi was old, the second son Liu Cong was young, and the Cai family was outstanding, so he deliberately loved Liu Cong, and married his niece to Liu Cong as his wife. Liu Qi was angry with the Cai family because of his mother's death, and often treated the Cai family coldly. Cai's also told Liu Qi in front of Liu Biao, which caused Liu Biao to gradually dislike Liu Qi, making Liu Qi feel extremely lonely and helpless in the house.

Liu Bei's appearance made Liu Qi see a glimmer of hope, and when he received that Liu Bei would conquer Jingnan, Liu Qi asked Liu Biao to join the army.

Although Liu Biao didn't like Liu Qi because of Cai's words, when Liu Qi was very similar to Liu Biao's youth, he saw that Liu Qi was willing to go out with the army, and he also thought of Liu Qi's situation, so he agreed.

Liu Bei said goodbye to Liu Biao, led the army to Changsha, when Zhang Xian was seriously ill, I heard that Liu Bei came to conquer the shock, ordered all the troops to guard the city, not to fight, and wait for a long time, Liu Bei retreated.

Zhang Xianzi Zhang Yi was not convinced, he was brave and brave, and led the troops to fight privately.

Liu Bei ordered Zhang Fei to fight, but after dozens of rounds, he was pierced through the heart by Zhang Fei's spear, and the defeated soldiers fled back to the city to inform Zhang Xian of the news, Zhang Xian was furious and died in a fit of anger. Han Xuan, the governor of Changsha, led the crowd to surrender. Seeing that Changsha had surrendered, Lingling and Guiyang counties had no choice but to submit a letter of surrender to Liu Biao, and only Jin Xuan of Wuling County refused to surrender.

Liu Bei stopped the army in Changsha and reported the situation in Changsha to Liu Biao.

After Liu Biao received the letter, he replied to Liu Bei, appointing Han Xuan as the Taishou of Changsha, and the Lingling and Guiyang Taishou were still reinstated, and Liu Pan was transferred to serve as the general of Zhonglang and the governor of Changsha County, stationed in Youxian County. Instructed Liu Bei to work hard to recover Wuling.

After Liu Bei received the letter, he waited for Changsha to settle down and the handover was clear, and then led the army to Wuling.

Wuling is bordered by Nanjun in the north, Yizhou in the west, Changsha and Lingling in the east, and Jiaozhou in the south. The most troublesome thing is that Wuling County is inhabited by a large number of Wuxi Man, which is extremely brave, living on the high mountains and mountains, and crossing the mountains and mountains as if walking on flat ground. Jin Xuan relied on these barbarians to unite with Zhang Xian to oppose Liu Biao.

Jin Xuan was originally a Jingzhao person, he had a brave name when he was young, and then he studied under Ma Rong's disciples, Dong Table was the Taishou of Wuling, and after the Great Chaos in the Kanto East, Liu Biao was appointed as the assassin of Jingzhou, Jin Xuan deliberately operated Wuling, took in the fleeing and displaced people, gave preferential treatment to the Wuxi Yi people, supported more than 30,000 soldiers, and had a Yiren tribe of about 10,000 people. Liu Biao wanted to recover Wuling several times, but was rejected by Jin Xuan.

In Jin Xuan's view, Liu is soft on the outside and taboo on the inside, ambitious but not courageous, has talents but does not dare to use them, and is a person who talks clearly, not a talent who helps the world. Jingzhou is not something Liu Biao can have, how can he bow to him?

I heard that Liu Bei was coming to fight, and personally led troops to greet him. Liu Bei ordered Zhang Fei to fight, Jin Xuan ordered the general Zhang Quan to fight, the two fought for more than ten rounds, Zhang Quan was defeated, Jin Xuan ordered the army to go together, the two sides fought a melee, and they each collected their troops after dark.

Liu Bei retreated twenty miles to set up camp, and the next day he came to fight and found that Jin Xuan had retreated.

Liu Bei sent someone to investigate, only to learn that Jin Xuan had retreated to the city, and wanted to defend the water.

Liu Bei took Yang Feng and He Yi to confront Jin Xuan across the Yuanshui, and secretly ordered Zhang Fei and Wenpin to smuggle across the Yuanshui, attack Zuo Tang, and then capture Hanshou and take Liu Bei across the river.

Jin Xuan saw that Liu Bei was strong, and secretly ordered Shamoke, a native of Wuxiyi, to come to help.

When Liu Bei came, he had heard Liu Biao talk about Jin Xuan, and he had already let people monitor the Wuxi people. Secretly ordered the army to sneak out and ambush on the path of Shamoko.

This Shamoke was brave and defenseless, and was besieged by Liu Bei in a canyon. Jin Xuan was shocked when he received the news and rushed to the rescue. As soon as he turned a mountain mouth, the ambushes on both sides came out and killed Jin Xuan.

Jin Xuan realized: "I fell into Liu Bei's plan to besiege the city and send reinforcements, so I urgently ordered to retreat." At this time, there was too late, the two sides had a scuffle, Jin Xuan was entangled by Zhang Fei, the banner was cut off, the Jin Xuan army was leaderless, each fighting for itself, the two sides fought fiercely for an hour, the Jin Xuan army was defeated, Jin Xuan himself was beheaded by Zhang Fei, Shamoke surrendered, and Wuling was pacified.

Liu Qi had long heard that Liu Bei was brave and good at fighting, but unexpectedly, the big problems for Jingzhou in the southern counties of Jingzhou were settled in a few months in Liu Bei's hands, and he admired this distant uncle so much. Thinking of his future, he fell out of favor with his father, and he didn't feel sad.

After hesitating, he came to Liu Bei's big tent, saw Liu Bei reading a book in the tent, and walked in unconsciously.

Liu Bei glanced at Liu Qi, saw that there were tears in the corners of his eyes, and unconsciously asked, "What's the matter with the virtuous nephew?" Uncle is in charge of you! ”

Liu Qi hugged Liu Bei and said with great regret: "The nephew loses his mother, and the stepmother spoils the second brother alone, and often says that Qi'er is not in front of his father, so that Qi'er falls out of favor with his father, and every time he thinks of the future, he doesn't know what to do to avoid being victimized!" Therefore, I came from the bottom of my heart, seeing that my uncle was so brave and resourceful, and I wanted to ask my uncle to teach me! ”

Liu Bei was stunned, this is a matter of interfering with Liu Biao's heir, how can he help, pondered for a while, stroked Liu Qi's body and said: "Uncle is tired of fighting, and it is okay to charge into battle, but this is a family matter between your father and son, uncle can't do anything, it's really difficult to help, you still have to hire another master." ”

Liu Qi cried: "If my uncle doesn't help, after a hundred years, Jingzhou may not have a place for me to live!" After speaking, he cried bitterly and was sad.

Liu Bei sighed and said, "Virtuous nephew! Uncle Shu can't do anything. There you go! You can find your uncle for other things, but this one can't. ”

Liu Qi saw that Liu Bei was unwilling to offer advice, so he had to leave.

But in half an hour, Liu Qi turned Liu Bei's big tent again, and Liu Bei asked in surprise: "Is there anything else wrong with my nephew?" ”

Liu Qi took a few steps forward, knelt in front of Liu Bei all of a sudden, and asked Liu Bei again to teach him.

Liu Bei was shocked, and ordered the guards to stand outside the tent and not let anyone in, so he stepped forward to help Liu Qi, and at this moment, Liu Qi suddenly took out a short knife, aimed it at his chest and said: "Uncle don't help me, I know my uncle's ability, as long as my uncle is willing, he will be able to save me." I'm just afraid that my father and stepmother will know, but my nephew's life is at stake, so I have to beg my uncle to teach me, otherwise I will have to die in my uncle's tent. ”

Liu Bei was shocked when he heard this, "Qi'er! Why can't you think so? As long as you treat your parents with filial piety, can't your father arrange a way for you to live? ”

Liu Qi cried: "If it's not my father, it's really my stepmother who won't allow me." After my father, Jingzhou may not have a place for me to stay, and every time my nephew reads the story of the brothers' rivalry in the Spring and Autumn Period, he feels that these things will happen to us, and it is difficult to sleep and eat all the time. ”
