Chapter Ninety-Nine: The Situation

After Huo Jun led 10,000 soldiers and horses into the Gong'an Port under Liu Bei's order, Huo Jun found an office on the west side of the Gong'an Port, and did not use the place where Liu Bei was in the Public Security Office to show his respect for Liu Bei.

After Huo Jun first arrived at Gong'an Port, he went to Jiangling, met with General Guan, and told General Guan in detail about his intentions. At first, Guan Yu was very unhappy when he heard it, thinking that it was a distrust of himself, but later he reluctantly agreed after knowing that it was his eldest brother's meaning. However, Guan Yu also had a lot of complaints about this matter, so Guan Yu ordered Huo Jun to stay in the public security port, and there was no need to worry about Jingzhou's affairs. Huo Jun returned to the Gong'an Port after receiving Guan Yu's order, since General Guan let him stay in the Gong'an Port, then he could guard the Gong'an Port well, in Huo Jun's thoughts, doing his own job is the best thing.

After Huo Jun came to Gong'an Port, Dongwu had already occupied Changsha and Guiyang counties, so not long after Huo Jun arrived at Gong'an Port, Liu Bei led a large army to Gong'an Port, preparing to take the land of the two counties again. However, due to the outbreak of the Battle of Hanzhong, Liu Bei negotiated with Eastern Wu and made concessions, and Liu Bei did not want the land of the two counties, but Liu Bei asked for those officials who surrendered to Eastern Wu but were unwilling to serve Eastern Wu.

After the negotiation was completed, Liu Bei led the army back to Yizhou to support Hanzhong, and when he finally left, he took away half of the 10,000 soldiers and horses brought by Huo Jun, so now there are only 5,000 soldiers and horses in the public security port.

During this period of time after Liu Bei left, Huo Jun, under the order of Guan Yu, unified with Pan Jun, the Taishou of Wuling, and Hao Pu, the Taishou of Lingling, to strengthen the defense of the west of Xiangshui to prevent the sneak attack of LΓΌ Meng of Eastern Wu. Guan Yu, on the other hand, strengthened the defenses along the Yangtze River to defend against Eastern Wu.

On this day, Huo Jun was working in his office, and suddenly in front of a guard runway, he said to Huo Jun that the military division had now come to Gong'an Port and was now rushing to this place. When Huo Jun heard this, he was naturally surprised, because Huo Jun didn't get the news that the military advisor was coming, and now that the military advisor had arrived in the public security port, it was no wonder that Huo Jun was so surprised.

"Strategist, why don't you come to the public security and give a message in advance, I can lead the soldiers to meet the strategist!" After Huo Jun received Shi Yuan, he led Shi Yuan to his office.

"Haha, General Huo Jun, I am also on the orders of the lord! I hope General Huo Jun doesn't mind. ”

"How dare you, how dare you, the military advisor is serious."

At that moment, Huo Jun led Shi Yuan and his party to his office, and a rather sumptuous banquet was placed on the office at this time, thinking that Shi Yuan and his party were picking up the wind and dust.

"Strategist, now that you have come to Jingzhou, I will be relieved." Huo Jun thought about Shi Yuan at the dinner table and said. Because of the problem of time, Wuling Taishou and Lingling Taishou were not here at this time.

"Oh, General Huo Jun, I should be encountering some kind of problem now!" Shi Yuan said.

"Hey! The military division just arrived in Jingzhou, and it is estimated that he still does not know. A few days ago, General Guan Yu, the general, sent me an order, asking me to prepare more engineering equipment and building ships, and send these things to Jiangling within half a month. ”

"General Guan Yu asked you to prepare a lot of siege equipment and building ships? Could it be that General Guan wants to attack Xiangyang? Shi Yuan said suspiciously.

In fact, Shi Yuan also knew in his heart that although he had not received the news of Guan Yu's attack on Xiangyang until now, he must not be able to stay with Guan Yu's character now. Sure enough, as Shi Yuan expected, he heard the news about Guan Yu as soon as he arrived at the public security.

"What the military advisor said is very true, and I and Pan Jun and Hao Pu also think the same."

"General Huo Jun, is it possible that General Guan Yu's troops can reach Xiangyang City directly?" Shi Yuan asked.

"Yes. Unbeknownst to the military advisors, General Guan Yu occupied a large amount of land in the Wei State between Xiangyang and Jiangling during this period of time, including some areas west of Hanshui and south of Xiangyang, as well as land in the area of Dahongshan to the east of Hanshui, so that General Guan Yu could cross the river for a long time to attack the Xiangfan area. Moreover, our army has just defeated Cao Cao in Hanzhong, and many generals have performed well in this battle, and General Guan Yu naturally wants to show it. ”

"In this way, it must not take too long for General Guan Yu to launch an attack on Xiangyang."

Huo Jun is also an interesting person, so he will not continue to say this, and the above words have made the current situation in Jingzhou very clear, and the rest of the things can be left to the military advisor to solve, and he still needs to do his own thing.

"General Huo Jun, there is one thing that needs to be troubled by you." Shi Yuan said. After Huo Jun finished saying the above words, he didn't continue to speak, and Shi Yuan also understood what Huo Jun meant in his heart, so he also changed the topic. At this time, Shi Yuan thought of the bandit he met when he came, so he told General Huo Jun about the thief he encountered on the road.

"Don't worry, just leave this matter to me, I will definitely handle it well." Huo Jun said.

"I'm also bothering Miss Raoma to come with me in a moment and get some necessities for the bandit." Huo Jun said to Ma Yunlu.

After the meal, Shi Yuan came to the accommodation arranged by Huo Jun, and now that he has arrived at the Public Security Port, Shi Yuan naturally no longer needs the protection of Ma Yunlu and others, so now Shi Yuan also has a separate room for himself.

"It seems that Guan Yu's launch of the Xiangfan War is inevitable." Shi Yuan thought to himself in the room. Although history has changed a lot now because of his own travel, it seems that some things will still happen, but the time of occurrence has changed.

In history, Guan Yu launched the Xiangfan War in 219 AD, and now it is only 217 years, and the Xiangfan War is two years earlier than it seems in history.

In fact, Guan Yu has always had an advantage in the Xiangfan War in history, and he also beat Cao Wei in the north to the point of wanting to move the capital, but it was only because of the sneak attack of Eastern Wu in the rear that Guan Yu was finally defeated and lost his life.

The failure of the Battle of Xiangfan and the sneak attack on Jingzhou by Eastern Wu played a great role, but Guan Yu himself also bears an unshirkable responsibility here. If you want to blame Guan Yu for being too conceited, he looked down on Dongwu too much, and he didn't defend Dongwu at all, leaving a very empty Jingzhou, Sun Quan, Lu Meng and others in Dongwu naturally would not give up this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, which also led to the later crossing of the river in white.
