Peng Lize, located at the confluence of Poyang Lake and the Yangtze River, a long and narrow Huze, the Chinese army camp of the Chaisang Naval Army is built here, enter the Jiangdong Shuojiang River and attack Jingzhou, retreat can defend the south of the Yangtze River, once this place is lost, you can directly drive along the Yangtze River waterway to attack Xiakou, and then capture Lukou, if Lukou is lost, Jiangling, Xiangyang, Fancheng and other coastal cities will become the target of attack of the Jiangdong Naval Army. This is also the purpose of Liu Yong's continuous use of troops against Chai Sang.

Now, Cao Cao's pacification of Hebei has come to an end, and the men and horses began to retreat to the Yellow River, and at the same time sent Xiahou Yuan to garrison Wuguan, and was confronting Zang Ba Yang Ren. In the southeast, due to the long-term campaign to make the soldiers extremely tired, Cao Cao had to send Zhang Liao to lead Li Dian and Le Jin to lead 20,000 horses to garrison Hefei, in this three-way competition area to strictly defend to the death, Liu Yong's men and horses are also frequent battles, but also intended to rest, so that the three parties tacitly fell silent, temporarily imposed a delicate balance, so that Sun Quan got a rare period of peaceful development.

Yuzhang is calm, Chaisang is worry-free, and Liu Yong has no worries. Delayed by Shanyue for two whole months, Jiangdong has relieved his breath, Sun Quan has arranged a total of 30,000 troops in various places in Danyang, and the fighter plane has been lost, Liu Yong had to reappoint Gan Ning as the Taishou of Yuzhang as the pastor of Jingzhou, and Liu Ye as the supervising army, sitting in Chaisang, to prevent Jiangdong from attacking again, and at the same time to deter Zhou Yu's naval army that may go up along the river at any time, to prevent Anhui County from losing.

Liu Yong was about to set off to return to Xiangyang, when suddenly a personal soldier came to report, and Sun Quan sent Lu Fan as an envoy to meet Liu Yong.

"Lu Fan?" Liu Yong was puzzled, Lu Fan was a celebrity around Sun Quan, and he must have come to Sun Quan's meaning, but the two sides had just made a truce and didn't know what he was talking about at this time.

Liu Ye said: "Lu Fan must be Sun Quan's relative Hefei army!" ”

"Hefei?" Liu Yong looked at the map on the wall, and he didn't understand: "Ziyang might as well elaborate." ”

"Although the power of the lord is now flourishing, Cao Cao's southward movement is blocked, but according to the latest news from the fine work, Cao Cao has captured Zhuo County and is making every effort to capture Yuyang. Once Hebei is pacified, it will inevitably look south. Now the lord occupies Hanzhong to the north and can send troops out of Guanzhong, occupy the land of Sanfu, and go south to Yizhou, which is really a taboo for Cao Cao, and he will inevitably send troops to conscript. And for the southeast, it must be defense-oriented, this is Sun Quan's opportunity, with the lord carrying Cao Cao for him, and Zhou Yu planning for him, how can he not take the opportunity to fight Hefei's idea? ”

Liu Ye talked freely, and suddenly Liu Yong woke up to the fact that Sun Quan wanted to make peace with himself and make every effort to deal with the enemy of Hefei.

After thinking about it for a while, Liu Yong's eyes immediately flashed, and he said loudly: "Bring Lu Fan here to see me!" ”

"Congratulations to the Metropolitan Governor for pacifying Yuzhang Shanyue, the first battle of Shiyang, the 10,000 people in Beijing, deterring the enemy, all the tribes in Shanyue are all afraid, and the courage of the Metropolitan Governor, my lord is impressed!" As soon as he entered the door, Lu Fan congratulated loudly.

Liu Yong smiled slightly and said: "It seems that Wu Hou is very attentive to me, and he knows my whereabouts and every move!" ”

Lu Fan heard Liu Yong's gorgeous implied threat, and hurriedly said with a smile: "Where is it, the Metropolitan Governor was like a rainbow before, and the soldiers pressed the border, not only took Yuzhang away in one fell swoop, but also captured several counties in Poyang, and it seems that Jiangdong is about to be forced to have no foothold, how can you not pay attention to the whereabouts of the Metropolitan Governor, Wu Hou is also forced to do so!" ”

Since Liu Yong invaded Poyang County, Sun Quan was under great pressure and had to move out of his father and eldest brother Sun Cezeng's name "Wucheng Hou" to appeal to the people.

"So, isn't it my father-in-law?" Liu Yepi said with a smile.

When Lu Fan came, he had already expected that there would inevitably be some hot ridicule, and he didn't mind, so he hurriedly said: "Brother Ziyang said don't be careful, how dare Fan offend the governor." Victory or defeat is a common thing in soldiers, and the past is also in the past. My family Wu Hou doesn't care about this anymore. I came to see the Metropolitan Governor in this matter because I wanted to plot a mutually beneficial thing with the Metropolitan Governor! ”

"Oh, I don't know what Ziheng is talking about?" Liu Yong smiled secretly, and finally got to the point.

"According to the report of the spies, Cao Cao has occupied Zhuo County, Hebei is about to be pacified, once Hebei is pacified, then the next step must be to go south, either to conquer Jingzhou, the governor of the capital, or to invade Jiangdong. Cao thief is powerful, so Wu Hou intends to form an alliance with the metropolitan governor, support each other, and fight Cao Cao together! ”

Lu Fan is really good at talking, he really deserves the name of this messenger, and everything he says seems to be powerful to Liu Yong.

"The alliance is a major matter for both you and me, and how about I go back to Xiangyang to discuss with everyone and then inform Ziheng?" Liu Yong saw Liu Ye nodding slightly, and had a plan in his heart, but he didn't agree immediately.

The situation is not as good as people, and you have to look at other people's faces everywhere, how dare Lu Fan have any objections, and immediately said: "That's natural, Fan will go back to Moling to reply to my family Wu Hou, and wait for the good news of the metropolitan governor!" ”

After sending Lu Fan away, Liu Ye immediately said: "Lord, this matter is feasible!" ”

Liu Yong nodded and said with emotion: "Yes, now my Jingzhou seems to be in full swing, but Hanzhong is connected to Yizhou Liu Zhang in the south and Guanzhong in the north, and the Xiliang cavalry will attack at any time." Although I have some affection for Na Ma Teng, it is related to interests, who cares about this. Wancheng faced Xuchang directly, the pressure on Cao Cao can be imagined, this southeast and Jiangdong and Cao Cao's territory are connected, I heard that the Jiaozhou Shixie brothers are not restless, speaking of which, always walking on thin ice, it is the best choice to form an alliance with Sun Quan at this moment! ”

Liu Ye hugged his fists and said: "The lord is wise!" ”

"But there's one more thing that must be solved first!" Liu Yong's face suddenly became gloomy, and Liu Ye saw that Liu Yong didn't mean to say it, so he immediately found an excuse to retire, leaving Liu Yong alone to bow his head and be silent.

"It's time to make a break!" After a long time, Liu Yong raised his head, his eyes were full of murderous anger.

It was just night, and Chen Zhi led a team of people out of the city quickly.

Two days later, at the north gate of Xiangyang, a gorgeous car was stopped.

"Bold, that don't dare to stop the car, don't see whose car it is!" A scolding came from the car. Immediately, a young woman dressed in a gorgeous brocade dress opened the curtain and came out.

The woman raised her eyebrows and scolded angrily: "You don't want to die, even dare to stop the third lady's car?" ”

Immediately, a young military academy stepped forward and respectfully hugged his fists: "I also hope that the third lady will atone for her sins, and a certain one is also acting on orders, and an order has been passed down from above, the lord is about to return, and no subordinate officials in Xiangyang are allowed to leave the city at will!" ”

"You also said that subordinate officials are not allowed to go out of the city, is it true that Mrs. Ben is also a subordinate official? If you delay a big event, can you afford it? Another woman's voice came from the car, and then, I saw a stunning woman poking her head out of the car window, it was Liu Yong's wife Cao Cao's daughter Cao Yuan, Princess Cao Yuan. Although the voice was not loud, the anger contained in it could be heard.

"This ......" the military academy did not know how to answer for a while.

"Madame, please calm your anger, it was her subordinates who strictly ordered them to do this, and they are unwilling to do it!" When the military academy was in a dilemma, a voice that was neither humble nor arrogant came from behind him. When the military academy looked back, he was immediately overjoyed, and suddenly seemed to see a savior: "General Liao!" ”

"It turned out to be General Liao, the concubine has an urgent matter and needs to go out of the city, and I asked General Liao to order them to get out of the way!" Cao Yuan saw that it was Liao Hua, and his tone was much gentler, but he ordered in a non-negotiable tone.

Liao Hua arched his hand and said: "Please also ask the third lady to atone for her sins, the lord has an order, not only are the subordinate officials not allowed to leave the city at will, but the three ladies cannot leave!" ”

"Okay, you Liao Hua, it seems that you are afraid of your husband, but you are not afraid of Mrs. Ben, right?" Cao Yuan suddenly raised her eyebrows and shouted.

Liao Hua still looked calm: "The lord has a life, and Hua has to obey!" Please forgive me! ”

Liao Hua didn't explain either, and said to a team of Praetorian Guards next to him: "Come on, escort the third lady back to the house!" ”

Cao Yuan was angry and scolded sharply: "Liao Hua, you wait!" ”

Looking at the car that turned around and returned, Liao Hua shook his head, he didn't know what his lord meant when he gave this order, but he had been with Liu Yong for a long time, and he keenly felt that Xiangyang was brewing this storm, like a volcano under the calm sea, about to erupt.

The sky slowly darkened, and dark clouds slowly condensed from it, like a hideous-looking ghost, waiting to be devoured.

Cao Yuan, who returned to the room, had a gloomy face: "Xuemei, did you say that what we did was discovered by Liu Yong?" ”

The woman called "Blood Plum" is the woman in Chinese costume who reprimanded Shoucheng Elementary School before, and her name is called "Xuemei" on weekdays.

Xuemei poured a cup of tea for Cao Yuan: "It's hard to say. Jin Tianwei has become a climate, and it is possible if he really finds something. But what we do is extremely secretive, and even if we find something, we won't find out about the young lady. ”

Cao Yuan seemed to feel a lot more relieved, her face was a little better, and suddenly there was a murderous flash in her eyes: "It seems that it can't be delayed any longer, you go and inform the Kuai family to implement the latest plan first." If you really can't do it, you have to force it, for the sake of your father's great cause, if you don't succeed, you will become benevolent! ”

Xuemei's eyes flashed with surprise, and then she retreated.

In the evening, Chen arrived in Xiangyang, but he kept going straight to Pang Tong's mansion.

"Lord!" I thought it was Chen Zhi's sudden visit to discuss important matters, but I didn't expect a sergeant dressed in a white-haired military uniform to flash out from behind Chen Zhi.

"Shiyuan, there is no need to be polite, this time the matter is urgent, it has to be like this, and many things have to be discussed with you." Liu Yong didn't care, Ming Chen was guarding the outside, and he and Pang Tong were kept inside.

"So this attack in Nanchang, in Xinjian and Shiyang was besieged by Shanyue, it was Cao Cao who was behind the ghost, but I didn't expect the culprit to be the third lady?" After listening to Liu Yong, Pang Tong was furious!

Pang Tong thought about it carefully, leaving Xu Shu, Liu Yong was attacked many times, although he knew that the spy was playing ghosts, but it has been difficult to determine, if the third lady Cao Yuan was seated, it just so happened that everything could be explained.
