Cai Zhong didn't let Liu Biao wait too long. Just after calming Liu Biao's emotions, Kuai Yue, who was full of worries, took Liu Biao's warrant to go to pacify the soldiers of this army who had been hungry for almost three days, and his morale had almost dropped to freezing. Cai Zhongbu, who was already calling for a long time in Liu Biao's heart, was just as Kuai Yue said, almost with the speed of running, and in the evening of the same day, he had already contacted Liu Biao.

It was learned that Cai Zhong was already in Lujiang at the moment. With Liu Biao's headquarters is already across the river, and the luck is "very good" when he did not encounter the attack of the Danyang soldiers or the chasing soldiers behind him, Liu Biao, who has long been in a dilemma by his subordinates because of the lack of military rations, seems to have grasped the last straw like a drowning person, and almost ecstatic urged the soldiers of Cai Zhong's department to report their whereabouts to Liu Biao to return quickly, so that Cai Zhong should hurry up and bring troops to "King Qin", and at the same time, he must bring enough food!

Cai Zhong did not foresee the gravity of the situation at all. Therefore, although he did not dare to disobey Liu Biao's military order, he really underestimated the situation that Liu Biao encountered this time. So much so that after collecting all the ships in Lujiang County, taking advantage of Zang Ba's "inattention" at the fastest speed, he hurriedly passed Jiangtong Liu Biao's division, and divided the squeezed out three military rations and grass into the heads of Liu Biao's headquarters of 30,000 troops plus 10,000 soldiers in Jiangling, but it was only half a meal on weekdays. Liu Biao and Cai Zhong, who are dressed in fine clothes and jade food, naturally don't understand that a person who is hungry for a few meals will actually pass after a few meals, and the most uncomfortable thing is that after filling in the middle half-full, it is as uncomfortable as a knife scraping oil. In fact, it is the worst part. The soldiers of Liu Biaojun's headquarters, who had long been hungry and red-eyed, originally expected Cai Zhong's army to return, and they would be able to eat a full meal to return to Xiangyang. But that's all I can do. For the army robe, which does not have much oil and water on weekdays, this toss is simply not a life-saving but a punishment!

However, fortunately, Liu Biao's prestige in the army has accumulated for several years, and he has repeatedly stated that after saving Xiangyang, he must reward the three armies before suppressing this resentment. Before Lieutenant General Cai could make the situation in Yuzhang County clear, he no longer paid attention to Kuai Yue's repeated dissuasion to go to Jiangling to supply and then try to Xiangyang. Coupled with the pampering of Cai Mao and Cai Zhong brothers in the army, they want to use the troops that have been combined together, and the total strength is enough for more than 60,000 troops. With the help of this morale, he was stimulated and killed Xiangyang.

Liu Biao didn't know that what Kuai Yue said was a statement for the country, which was very reasonable. It's just that the breath in Liu Biao's heart, but he can't swallow it. As a clan member of the Han family. He has been the emperor of the soil in Jingxiang for so many years, and the thieves who were ravaging Jingzhou at that time, but let him Liu surrender alone, and when was Liu Biao, who has been pampered and pampered, been bullied like this? If this is spread, even if everyone understands his hardships and does not shamefully laugh at his useless efforts, the two sides add up to nearly 100,000 troops. The pitiful thing of being counted by the light running back and forth without reaping any benefits. But if you want to win the supreme position in the crowd, it will definitely be even more difficult.

Liu expressed his next thoughts. It's about getting back your face. The lion is still fighting the rabbit with all his strength, and Liu Biao is also ruthless this time. Seeing that the half-fed armies also had some strength, Liu Biao categorically ordered to take Cai Zhongbu as the vanguard, led by Cai Zhong and Cai Mao, to kill Ben Xiangyang first; Cousin Liu led the army as the Chinese army, and then arrived, and it was necessary to relieve the siege of Xiangyang within one day, and then counterattack Jiangling, and expel the Xuzhou soldiers from Jingzhou.

Liu Biao's idea is very good. And it seems to have been well thought out. At least after listening to Kuai Yue's words before, he didn't continue to shout and kill Lu Bujun, and changed the pursuit to expulsion, although it was also based on the premise that the siege of Xiangyang was lifted, but the target had changed a lot. Kuai Yue knew Liu Biao's temperament very well, and seeing that Liu Biao was already stubborn, he did not have the attitude of a corporal with the inherent courtesy and virtuous corporal a few hours ago, and did not make any angry moves, but just sighed deeply, and did not continue to admonish.

The march of more than 60,000 troops, the team alone is nearly ten miles long, to complete the seventy miles, in fact, it does not take a lot of time, but because of the previous rounds of tossing, and Cai Zhongbu after all, the forced march from Yuzhang to drive hundreds of miles, the soldiers have long been exhausted, although there is Liu Biao's urging and the encouragement of heavy rewards, but it still grinds until almost midnight, and then marches one after another to camp outside Xiangyang City to rest.

The closer to Xiangyang, the greater the anger in Liu Biao's heart, and now when he arrived at the city, staring at the Xuzhou military camp a few miles away, although it was already in the dark night, but under the light of the torches, the Chinese army was big Taishi, and Liu Biao only felt that the evil fire was rushing upward. I just want to destroy the hateful thieves in this big camp in one fell swoop. According to the intelligence, after all, there are more than 20,000 soldiers in Xuzhou, including many cavalry, who have surrounded Xiangyang, and the soldiers have enough food and supplies from Jiangling.

"But the lord has something on his mind?" Liu Biao has been staring at the dimly lit Xuzhou military camp in the distance to see a stick of incense, and the people around him dare not get close, for fear of touching Liu Biao's moldy head, and those who can talk to Liu Biao at this time are full of troops, and there is only Cai Mao, the brother-in-law who Liu Biao is closest to and most relied on.

"Didn't De Jue ask knowingly? You and my family are all in the city, surrounded by thieves for several days, must be very panicked, you and I, as the heads of two families, have tens of thousands of empty armies, but we are helpless against the thieves who are close at hand, how can we not have a heart? "Liu Biao and Cai Mao's sister have been married since they got married, and they are very affectionate with their husbands and young wives, so they love the house and Wuxia, and they are quite close to Cai Mao, so they chose to favor their brother-in-law when Huang Zu and Cai Mao competed. Listening to Cai Mao's question at this moment, it undoubtedly aroused the grievances in my heart.

"My brother-in-law has the appearance of a son of heaven, and he is the person who is the heart of the world's soldiers, and there are countless male soldiers, but if he encounters an unfavorable situation, he will inevitably turn evil into good fortune!" was embarrassed by Liu Biao, and Cai Mao also seemed to be affected. The Cai family is already a family attached to Liu Biao, it is a relationship of both prosperity and loss, and just now he told his brother about the defeat of Yuzhang, and he must not say it to Ming, only said that he was anxious and scattered a lot of words, and he also felt a little sorry for Liu Biao in his heart. Moreover, in Cai Mao's eyes, the Xuzhou soldiers who came from this sneak attack would not be the opponent of this army, so he said to Liu Biao with full sincerity in half flattery.

"Listen to Deju's meaning, isn't there any good way to make someone let out this evil breath?" For his brother-in-law, Liu Biao thinks he also knows. There is more than enough in military affairs than above, and the strategy is also so-so, but there is one thing that Liu Biao relies on Cai Mao very much, that is, Cai Mao has the most impatience and wisdom in front of Liu Biao before, and he is the most proficient in the ability to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages on the battlefield. And at this moment, he was angry, and Cai Mao, who had the most eyes in the past, followed closely, and the intention was naturally self-evident.

"The lord has looked down on the little brother! The younger brother is only shallow in learning, the literature is not as good as Mr. Yidu, the martial arts are not as good as Brother Zhongye, and the unified army is not as good as General Huang Zuhuang, just now I just suddenly had a few small questions, and I saw that the lord frowned, so I said nonsense, now think about it...... It's just a fool's opinion, so it's better not to say it! Cai Mao saw that Liu Biao was attracted by his words, and he was secretly happy in his heart, but his face showed a little embarrassment.

"It's okay to say it's okay, even if it's wrong, you and my brother, I won't blame you!" The more Cai Mao looked like this, the more Liu Biao, who was already irritable, believed in his heart that Cai Mao must have a good plan, but according to his cautious temperament, because he was afraid of his own prestige, afraid of saying the wrong thing, and being scolded by himself, he didn't dare to speak. Liu Biao eased his face and said.

"Since my brother-in-law said so, then Mao will try to say it!" Cai Mao's face showed a loyal minister who was difficult to repay his kindness, pretended to ponder slightly, and said: "This time, we have already returned to Xiangyang City, and the lord is afraid that he has taken into account the exhaustion of our army from afar, and it is late at night, so he did not order to recapture Xiangyang immediately." Originally, this was a very safe settlement, and it could also prevent the other party from sneaking up at night. But...... But I don't know if the lord has thought about it, is the other party also like me, taking the opportunity to rest? ”

What does Dejue mean by that? Don't you persuade someone to ...... Something to do? Originally, Liu Biao was aggrieved because his army was three times larger than the Xuzhou soldiers, but he could only watch and not make any moves, Cai Mao's words simply spoke to Liu Biao's heart. It's just that Liu Biao still has a lot of worries in his heart, after all, the Xuzhou soldiers can kill under the city of Xiangyang in such a short time, although there is the emptiness of Jiangling, but since they can come under Cao Cao's nose, the 20,000 troops from across the border really have two brushes, Liu Biao still talked to Kuai Yue during the day about the prestige of Qin Xu and his subordinate Xuzhou soldiers, and it is always not wrong to be careful in such a major matter.

"Mao doesn't dare to persuade the lord in military affairs! I just thought that the Xuzhou soldiers were also flesh and blood, even if the combat power was strong, it was already a tiring day during the day, and it was really hard to beware of others stealing the camp in the middle of the night. It's just that I don't know that the Xuzhou soldiers who are working so hard, and the enemy soldiers who are attacking the camp in a small group on the other side may really be spared from this harm. But what if there is a night attack, more than three times the strength of the army? Seeing that Liu Biao had actually moved his heart, Cai Mao said with a smile: "There is probably a possibility that something will happen to the camp, and it is possible to increase the combat power of this gang of thieves a little, right!?" ”

"Haha! Dejun said it well! Liu Biao nodded thoughtfully, looked at Cai Mao's more and more humble expression, and was more satisfied in his heart, groaned slightly, took out half a bronze tiger talisman from his sleeve, stroked it for a moment, solemnly handed it into Cai Mao's hand, and said in a deep voice: "You are right, even if I am a tired army from afar, but taking advantage of the night, I may not be afraid that he will go to Xuzhou." As long as you can break the siege of these thieves, enter Xiangyang City, and get military rations to recuperate, then Lu Bu and Qin Xu will come in person, what are you afraid of!
