Chapter 189: Captain's Department

What kind of person is Liu Biao, he is a Confucian student, and he is a very powerful kind of Confucian student.

He is one of the eight jun, and he is as famous as Zhang Jian, who is looking at the door; He is a capable minister who governs the world, a Jingzhou pastor in troubled times, a Zhennan general and a marquis of Chengwu who opened the palace with the three divisions, supervised, Yang, and handed over the military affairs of the three states.

Ten years ago, Dong Zhuo put him in Jingzhou, and he didn't plan to let him survive. During the early peace period, Jingzhou was no less chaotic than Guanzhong, where the local powerful and powerful joined forces to divide the territory, the county officials attacked each other, and the tiger of Yuan Highway saw this place and locked the road with soldiers...... In the years of the great chaos in the world, there are countless feudal officials who have died in office, and now they are still dominating one side, which one of them has not killed the assassin appointed by the imperial court when he was young, and he is embarrassed to say that he is a prince.

Liu Biao has never been killed, he is the one who was almost killed.

A scholar with a three-foot life, riding a horse and walking a small road into Yicheng, the Huihao clan won the support of the two major clans of the Kuai clan and the Cai clan, and surrendered to more than 100 counties in seven counties within a radius of thousands of miles. Turning danger into safety, he guarded Jingzhou, a chaotic place, for ten years, and sheltered millions of officials and people from the suffering of military disasters.

In the world, there are hundreds of people in the same meter, Yanbei is not flat Liaodong, so he looks at the north, and the east conquers Goguryeo and enters the west of Youzhou, setting off a grand plan to dominate the north; Cao Cao's eastern rebellious army swept south of Yuzhou, as if he knew that either I was the enemy; Yuan Shu, Yangzhou Mu Xuzhou Bo, is not satisfied with being the father of the world, but also the big brother; In these days, everyone who is famous outside the world is an ambitious...... Liu Biao is not, he only does his own business, and it is said that Jingzhou has 100,000 armor and looks at one side, but Jingzhou's Zhennan general has never sent troops to conquer.

Extravagant but not arrogant, frugal and not forced, a little careful not to go out to harm people, just stay in Jingzhou to open the school, raise Confucianism, and write articles.

The surname Liu is not a failed person, but there is no one who can dominate the world, if the first emperor is still there, Liu Jingsheng is a model in the world.

Unfortunately, the world has changed.

Liu Biao can write excellent articles, morality is also a model of moderation, no one is better than him in governance, and he is also long-sleeved and good at dancing, he is well versed in politics, he can do everything, but he misses one...... Liu Biao will not fight.

In fact, in many cases, wars can be avoided, at least here in Liu Biao, there are not many disputes over Jingzhou in the past ten years, and Liu Biao can always avoid them. Only this time, he couldn't avoid it, and he was reckless once in his life, declaring war on the Yan clan early.

Blows, one after another.

The enemy this time is different from before, Yanbei is different from others. There is no one in the world who can run to tens of thousands of households in the enemy's territory when the war has just begun and the army has not yet engaged.

This is like a metaphor, from a completely different sign to predict that Liu Biao will lose everything in this battle.

In the past, when the two princes had a dispute, the people would flee as well, but it was because the people on both sides fled in a hurry, fleeing to the land of a third prince to resettle or take refuge for a short time. No one had ever decided at the beginning of a war which side would prevail and flee to the other side.

But half a year since Liu Biao declared war on the Yan family, more than 30,000 people have fled to Nanyang from various counties in Jingzhou, and in Liu Biao's heart, the number is about 50,000.

Not 50,000 people, but 50,000 households. In other words, in order to escape this war, the people of Jingzhou who want to throw themselves into Yanbei are as many as a large county!

Counting Nanyang, the capital county of Jingzhou, the current Jingzhou shows a strange and paradoxical appearance - because of the blockade of Sizhou, the fleeing people gathered in Nanyang. At this moment, the number of people in Nanyang County and south of Nanyang County is about the same.

The hearts of the people are scattered.

Liu Biao's instability in gaining power in his early years finally showed his decline at this time, and his control over the counties of Jingzhou has always been weaker than that of the rest of the princes in the world.

Jiangxia Taishou Huang Zu was killed by Liu Bei, and Su Fei, the governor of Jiangxia, escorted Huang Shot all the way back to Xiangyang, and Jiangxia fell; Han Xuan, the Taishou of Changsha, refused to increase troops to the north on the grounds of a long distance, as if he did not listen to the order and did not participate in the war in Jingzhou; Fanyang County could not be contacted at all, Lingling Taishou Liu Du looked at the wind and surrendered, and only Jin Xuan led 4,000 soldiers and horses to aid Xiangyang.

Four thousand.

Zhao Wei, who raised troops in Yizhou, also saved Liu Biao's life by mistake, if Liu Biao knew that he invited Liu Bei to benefit, he couldn't say that he would thank him well. Liu Bei transferred troops into Nanjun, took a boat to the west to attack the gate of Yizhou, and left Zhang Fei to ask for the Taishou of Nanjun.

If Liu Bei hadn't left, Liu Biao would have surrendered directly to Yanbei at this time.

Nanjun is where Xiangyang, the seat of Jingzhou is located, Xiangyang is at the junction of Nanjun and Nanyang, and the Nanjun office is also in Xiangyang, but Zhang Fei did not come to Xiangyang, he just stayed in Yiling to garrison. Liu Biao can't wait for Zhang Fei to come to Xiangyang.

Liu Bei's departure made Liu Biao burn his heart and mind, at least not to clash with Liu Bei can allow him to transfer more than 10,000 soldiers and horses under Wenpin to the north to garrison the enemy army in the direction of Xinye. The Jingzhou generals set up defenses in the area of Caiyang and Dengxian in the north of Xiangyang, and behind them was Xiangyang City, preparing for a battle.

The Yan army is getting closer and closer.

Looking north from Xiangyang City, the fierce and fierce Liangzhou cavalry could already be seen galloping on the field through the water, trampling on the fertile fields in the north of Jingzhou, and burning one farm after another...... The black smoke rose on the horizon, and Liu Biao, who was at the head of Xiangyang City, was eager to draw his sword out of the city to fight with the enemy, but was dissuaded by the scribe beside him, and said: "Don't be angry with Duke Liu, the thief army wants to provoke us." ”

Zhang Xiu joined the Yan clan, and the Liangzhou elite cavalry in his hand that was collected during the chaos in the pass would naturally participate in this war and compete with the Liangzhou cavalry in the field? Where can you get it!

Deng County was hired by Wen as the defender, and Cai Yang was defended by Su Fei, who had escaped from Jiangxia's defeat, and before these two cities were captured, the Yan army could not pose a real threat to Xiangyang even if it was outnumbered. At present, all the postures of the enemy army have only one purpose - to lure the defenders of Xiangyang out of the city.

However, with a two-pronged approach, Hu Che'er, Zhang Xiu's subordinates, led his troops to show off his might in the field, and by the way, he defended the enemy who might come from Deng County; Zhang Xiu led a cavalry to follow Jiang Jin to attack Caiyang. The two cities were at each other's horns, and it was only a matter of time before one city was breached, the other fell.

time, Jiang Jin is much more anxious than Liu Biao, if the twin cities are not captured for a day, Xiangyang will be free of danger for a day; Liu Biao seems to be the opposite, Xiangyang is not in danger for a day, and the follow-up soldiers and horses will have one more chance to march north.

On Caiyang City, Gan Ning held a knife and looked at the city, Su Fei pointed at Zhang Xiu in front of the siege array at the head of the city and scolded, "Zhang Xiu dog thief, in vain Liu Gong took you in Nanyang back then, and now he is treacherous and merges with the Yan family!" The One God is above, and the heavens will not let you go! ”

Zhang Xiu was about to answer, but Jiang Jin kicked the horse's buttocks and stuck in the middle of Zhang Xiu and the city, raised his whip to the city and laughed, mocking: "Haha, too one god? The king of my family wants Jiang to ask you, who is Cangtian...... How many lieutenants does he have? ”
