Chapter 57 The general trend of Jingzhou, the underwater undercurrent is surging

Xinye City, Nanyang County, Jingzhou, now Guan Yu, Zhao Tian and others have led the army to garrison Xinye. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Zhao Tian, Sun Qian and others stood on the city wall, looking at the mountains and forests in the distance, and they were very happy.

Liu Biao is usually hesitant to do things, but he didn't expect to be so resolute this time, which is surprising. In two or three days, the matter was done. Zhao Tian stood on the city wall and said with joy.

"Yes, now that we have Liu Biao as a backup, we don't have to worry about food and grass anymore." Guan Yu scanned the entire Xinye City, and he was in a very good mood. Although this Shinno Castle is not large, the city walls are quite solid.

"By the way, I heard Liu Biao talk about Liu Bei before, and now it seems that he is locked up in Xuchang Prison." Sun Qian suddenly remembered this and hurriedly said.

"He's not in the Tiger Prison, how can he be in Cao Cao?" Zhao Tian wondered.

"I know, it must be Lu Bu who used the contract star shift." Guan Yu suddenly realized.

"What do you mean?" Zhao Tian was confused when he heard it.

"Didn't I tell you about Lu Bu being caught by Cao Ren's Golden Gate Lock Immortal Array before?" Guan Yu said.

"Yes, it is because of this that Luoyang City was breached." Guan Yu had already told Zhao Tian what happened during this time, and now that Guan Yu mentioned this matter, Zhao Tian replied without hesitation.

Later, Lu Bu somehow rushed back to the Tiger Prison Pass at a critical moment and relieved the danger of the Tiger Prison Pass. In this way, Lu Bu must have escaped by using the contract star shift to instantly exchange positions with Liu Bei. Guan Yu said slowly.

"I see, Cao Ren didn't know that Liu Bei had signed a soul contract with Lu Bu, and regarded Liu Bei as Lu Bu's hostage. After arresting Lu Bu, he released Liu Bei. Zhao Tian patted his thigh and suddenly realized.

"It must be so." Guan Yu nodded.

"Hahaha, it's really better to be a human being." Zhao Tian laughed.

"Presumably, at this moment, the tiger prison should have been broken." Sun Qian guessed.

"Although Lu Bu is brave, he is also alone. Yuan Shao's army besieged the city, and in a few days, LΓΌ Bu was bound to be defeated. Guan Yu nodded.

"No, I don't think the Tiger Prison has been broken yet." Zhao Tian said suddenly.

"Why is that?" When Sun Qian and Guan Yu heard Zhao Tian's words, they were puzzled.

"Someone, bring me the map." Zhao Tian said to a sentry next to him.

Moments later, the sentry ran all the way with the map in hand, and spread it on the ground. Zhao Tian stood on the edge of the map and talked eloquently.

"This Tiger Prison Pass is surrounded by mountains, after the Tiger Prison Pass, behind it is a horse Pingchuan, three hundred miles later, is Liu Zhang's territory. Once Yuan Shao broke the Tiger Prison, it was equivalent to breaking open Liu Zhang's door. If Yuan Shao wanted to attack the Tiger Prison Pass from the east, he would have to pass through Cao Cao's territory, and Cao Cao naturally would not agree. If you want to attack the Tiger Prison Pass from the west, and you have to pass through Liu Zhang's territory, Liu Zhang naturally refuses. Cao Cao would not let Yuan Shao's reinforcements follow, and Liu Zhang would support Tiger Prison Pass in the rear. Yuan Shao's reinforcements couldn't follow up, and there was no way to keep around the tiger prison. If my guess is correct, Yuan Shao will not win the first battle, and he should retire. ”

When Guan Yu, Sun Qian and the others heard this, they were all amazed and nodded secretly. When everyone was thinking carefully, bursts of applause came, causing everyone to turn their heads to look.

"That's right, heroes have been teenagers since ancient times."

Guan Yu looked at it, this person was only about thirty years old, with a polite and polite appearance, and he was polite and courteous in his conversation. Guan Yu took a step forward and said with his fists clenched. "Who are you?"

"My name is Liu Qi."

"Liu Qi? You are the eldest son of Liu Biao, Liu Qi! Sun Qian was shocked.

"Exactly." Liu Qi smiled.

"Oh, I didn't know that Liu Gongzi was coming, it was really rude." Sun Qian hurriedly said.

"Yes, if you miss the distance, please forgive Liu Gongzi." Guan Yu heard that it was Liu Biao's eldest son, and hurriedly said respectfully.

"Actually, I came half a day before you." Liu Qi said with a smile.

"Why is that?" When Guan Yu heard this, he was puzzled.

"You guys are new to the city, there will definitely be a lot of unfamiliar places, I'll take the first step, so I can arrange it in advance. Just now I was instructing the city defense, and I happened to hear you talking about it, and I would like to ask the general to be elegant. Liu Qi smiled.

"Don't dare. We are grateful for the full trust of the order. Guan Yu arched his hand.

"Liu Gongzi, let's go to the teahouse and talk slowly." Sun Qian said that, and then took Liu Qi and walked slowly to the tea room.

This tea house is a secluded spot in the middle of Shinno Castle, and the surrounding area is deserted. The soldiers and generals did not follow, just this four people, Guan Yu, Sun Gan, Zhao Tian, and Liu Qi, and even Sun Qian did it himself. A pot of tea is cooked and placed on the table. Sun Qian was the first to speak.

"I don't know what Liu Gongzi came here this time, but what Ling Zun meant?"

Zhao Tian heard this on the side, and nodded secretly in his heart. What Sun Qian was worried about coincided with himself, and he also felt that Liu Qi was sent by Liu Biao to supervise.

"As soon as I knew that you were going to garrison Shinno, I came here in secret. This time, only my two entourages knew about it, and no one else knew about it. Liu Qi looked around and said in a low voice.

"Dare to ask Liu Gongzi what is going on." Guan Yu stared at Liu Qi and said in a deep voice.

Liu Qi glanced at Zhao Tian and then at Sun Qian, and his expression seemed to be a little hesitant.

"These two are the people I trust the most, and it's okay to say something." Guan Yu immediately said.

"My mother died young, and my father, after my mother's death, married Cai and had a son, Liu Cong. My father is very fond of Liu Cong, and it seems that he has the meaning of passing on Liu Cong's foundation. The Cai family is a century-old family in Jingzhou, and the general Cai Mao has mastered most of the soldiers and horses in Jingzhou. Once my father passes on the foundation to Liu Cong after a hundred years, it won't be long before the Cai family will definitely replace him. At that time, the lord of Jingzhou will be surnamed Cai. When Liu Qi talked about this, he was no longer as calm as before. The expression between the words was flustered, the heart was anxious, and the speed of speech was much faster than before.

"This is your Jingzhou family matter, and I dare not participate." The more Zhao Tian listened, the more frightened he became, and finally couldn't help but say.

"Now I don't have real power in Jingzhou at all, and I can't intervene in many things. I also ask General Guan for more help to help me gain a firm foothold in Jingzhou. Liu Qi said anxiously.

"This matter is a matter of a certain person, and I dare not agree." Guan Yu also knew the stakes, and immediately clasped his fists and said.

"Even if it's a few kind words for me in front of my father." Liu Qi's tone was already a little pleading.

"This 。。。。。" Guan Yu hesitated and did not reply.

"Just a few kind words will not have any impact on General Guan." Seeing this, Liu Qi said anxiously.

"Alright then, if Ling Zun talks to me about this, I'll say a few words." Guan Yu glanced at Zhao Tian and then at Sun Qian. Seeing that both of them looked acquiescing, they nodded and said.

"Great, Liu Qi is grateful." Liu Qi saw that Guan Yu agreed, and immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

After a few people drank tea for an hour, Sun Qian sent Liu Qi back. After Liu Qi left, Guan Yu and Zhao Tian were not happy at all. Originally, everyone was very happy, but after chatting with Liu Qi, they were no longer in the mood before. Everyone didn't expect that this Jingzhou was calm on the surface, but in fact, there was an undercurrent.

This Liu Qi obviously wanted to bring his people to his side. But now that Jingzhou is in the hands of the Cai family, leaning on Liu Qi's side at this time, it is obvious that he is jumping into the fire pit. Guan Yu looked at Liu Qi's carriage under the city, and said with a frown.

"Of course I know that." Zhao Tian also had a sad face.

"Then why do you have to go to Liu Biao to say good things to him." Guan Yu wondered.

"Now Liu Qi has reached a desperate situation, otherwise he would not have come to us outsiders. If you refuse, Liu Qi is likely to be annoyed and angry. After all, this Liu Qi is the eldest son of Liu Biao. If Liu Qi is in a hurry, we will be in trouble if we go to Liu Biao to pour dirty water on us. Zhao Tian shook his head and said slowly.

"Then wouldn't we be at odds with each other?" Guan Yu exclaimed.

"Hey~~ The water here is very deep." Zhao Tianchang sighed and said slowly.
