Chapter 138: Three Points Jingzhou
When he arrived in Jiangling City, Liu Fengxian appointed Liu Xian, the son of Liu Du, to an official position at will, and taught him to take office immediately, but in fact, he was taken care of on the spot, in case he escaped back to Lingling, and something changed, after all, only when Liu Bei really drove Cao Cao to the north with Sun Quan, the four counties were foolproof.
At this time, everyone had already prepared a banquet for Liu Feng, because Cao Ren had reached an agreement with Liu Feng before, but only sent some sergeants to pretend to attack and defend each other in front of the battle, and there was no actual war, so everyone sat in the banquet with peace of mind, listening to Wei Yan and Gan Ning tell everyone how Liu Feng led the army from Lingling, all the way to Changsha, how to behead Zhao Fan, Jin Xuan and Han Xuan and others, and how to accept the veteran Huang Zhong, how to play Lu Su and Ling Tong between applause.
Even if it is a talented and resourceful person like Pang Tong and Xu Shu, I heard that Liu Feng was not afraid of hardships and dangers all the way, and captured the process of the four counties in less than ten days, and he couldn't help but praise Liu Feng's unparalleled strategy.
"These days, has Cao Cao ever sent someone here? Did Cao Zhi change anything? After everyone was full of wine and food, Liu Feng sent the generals back to the house, leaving only Pang Tong and Xu Shu, these two people are Liu Feng's think tank, and they are loyal, so Liu Feng always has a long-term plan in his heart, and he said to the two to see if he has any ideas.
According to Pang Tong and Xu Shu, Cao Zhi seemed to be much more cheerful since he had a conversation with Liu Feng last time, and he either studied books in his room every day, or played back and forth in Jiangling City, and had no intention of fleeing, and Cao Cao did not send a messenger to deliver the letter, but Cao Ren and Cao Hong still maintained a tacit understanding with the defenders in Jiangling City before the battle, which was enough to see Cao Cao's posture.
When Liu Feng learned of this, he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and Cao Zhi's state of mind improved, which showed that he had accepted what Liu Feng mentioned from the bottom of his heart, and when he returned to Cao Cao's array, he could communicate with Liu Feng in the future, and this was the greatest significance of Liu Feng's holding Cao Zhi hostage.
After the two of them informed Liu Feng of all the things in Jiangling City during these days, Liu Feng moved his eyes to Xu Shu, and his mouth seemed to want to say something, but he hesitated......
"Ziwei has nothing to do, but it doesn't hurt to say it, you and I are friends, Ziwei doesn't have to worry about what I think in my heart, everything that is beneficial to our plans in the future, you will obey your fate!" As soon as Xu Shu saw Liu Feng's expression, he knew that Liu Feng probably had something to discuss with him, but he didn't know how to talk about it, so he smiled loudly and said.
Liu Feng's face turned red when he heard this, but he was no longer ambiguous, his face was straight, and he said to Xu Shu: "This time I will fight with Cao Cao, I am afraid that my father and Zhuge Liang will not let Yuan Zhi stay by Fengzhi's side for a long time, I don't know what Yuan Zhi's plans are for the future?" ”
Xu Shu was not very surprised at this time, just because Liu Feng said, he already felt in his heart, Xu Shu is not like Pang Tong, not well known by Liu Bei, as early as Xinye, Xu Shu's strategy to defeat Cao Ren, is why Liu Bei is quite dependent on Xu Shu's talent, and Xu Shu and Zhuge Liang have a deep friendship, Zhuge Liang also knows Xu Shu's talent, although Liu Feng brought Xu Shu back from Cao Cao's army, Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang will never order Xu Shu to stay by Liu Feng's side.
"When I come back this time, I already regard Ziwei as the lord in my heart, and Ziwei has something to do in his heart, just say it!" How could Xu Shu not see that Liu Feng had most of the plans in his heart, but he was reluctant to say it directly because of his friendship with Xu Shu. immediately gave Liu Feng another reassurance.
"That Feng said bluntly, originally Feng was helpless, he really wanted to send Yuan Zhi back to his father and Zhuge Liang's side, so that once Zhuge Liang had any plans against Yu Feng, Feng could also beware of one or two, but Yuan Zhi is an upright person, how can he do such a two-faced thing? So when I conquered the four southern counties this time, I wanted to secretly find one of the four counties as our rear and not be known to others......"
As soon as Liu Feng spoke, he told the two of them the top secret things he had been thinking about these days, and if Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang heard these remarks, most of them would directly put Liu Feng into the cold palace and no longer reuse, but Pang Tong and Xu Shu had already seen it, and they heard that Liu Feng was going to secretly find a place as the rear, and they all bowed slightly, and then looked at Liu Feng and waited for his follow-up.
"Fortunately, when he finally arrived in Changsha County, Feng found that the defenders of Changsha County were well-trained, and only after paying attention did he know that the general of the county was the former Zhonglang general under Liu Biao, whose name was Huang Zhong......"
At that moment, Liu Feng told the two of them about the temporary appointment of Huang Zhong as the Taishou of Changsha after he killed Han Xuan in Changsha City.
In Guiyang and Wuling County, Liu Feng also appointed a person close to Liu Bei to temporarily serve as the position of Taishou, and Huang Zhong defected to Liu Feng in front of the battle, Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang did not know, so Liu Bei was not available at this time, most of them would not replace Huang Zhong elsewhere, and Liu Feng deliberately reminded Liu Bei in the letter to quickly replace the temporary Taishou position with capable people, Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang will not be even more suspicious of Liu Feng and Huang Zhong.
"If, as Ziwei said, Changsha is already under our control if nothing else, what does it have to do with me?" Thinking of this, Xu Shu couldn't help frowning, and asked, Xu Shu was proud of his talents in his early years, and he was also a person who thought very highly of himself.
"Yuan straight and look at it, the land of Changsha, it seems ordinary, but in fact it is an important place, this time Sun Liu formed an alliance and defeated Cao Cao, and Cao ** has been forced to Xiangyang, if it is as my father and Zhuge military master wished, it is naturally good to completely drive Cao Cao out of Jingzhou, but Feng thought about it again and again, this matter may not be as he wished......"
"Like...... And how? When the two of them heard this, they were still not very surprised.
"According to Feng's opinion, Nanyang and Nanxiang, the three counties of Xiangyang, Cao Cao will hardly give up to each other, and Jiangxia is originally occupied by Jiangdong from the south of the Yangtze River, so the best situation for our army now is only to occupy the land of these five counties and Xiakou."
After that, Liu Feng pointed to these counties on the map, and Xu Shu saw that Liu Feng finally pointed his finger at the place where Changsha was, so he showed a thoughtful look.
"The three families divided Jingzhou, although Uncle Liu Huang can occupy most of it, but this place is really a place where the enemy is on his back, Ziwei holds Changsha in his hands, is it not to take Changsha as the foundation and rely on Xiangshui ......" Finally, Xu Shu whispered what Liu Feng thought in his heart, and his eyes slowly had a lot of brilliance.
