Jing Xiang's battle was actually more like an encounter. Even Guo Jia and Qin Xu were afraid at first that they were just thinking that they could make Danyang and Yuzhang counties not lose, at most, they could take the opportunity to occupy Lujiang County when Jiangdong was pacified, which was already an unexpected joy. But who would have expected such a strange thing to happen.

Cai Mao's family's loyalty to Liu Biao, even if it exists, is limited. Qin Xu knew this. Otherwise, it would not have been in history when Liu Biao's bones were not cold, Cai Mao took his own nephew, Liu Cong's youngest son Liu Cong, to Cao Cao in order to protect the clan. What's more, now Mrs. Cai has only married Liu Biao for the first time at this time, and Liu Cong has not yet been born, so Cai Mao naturally has no big scruples in acting. But what Qin Xu didn't expect was that after history had changed, with such a strong force as Lu Bujun looking at the northeast of the Yangtze River, and leaving a strong army behind Cao Cao, and the way to serve Cao Cao seemed to be less stable than before, Cai Mao would choose to defect halfway, stick to Xiangyang and accept Cao Cao's name of surrender.

Xiangyang was originally a feint, Qin Xu knew this. Otherwise, he would not have directly ordered the Zang Ba army stationed in Danyang to ignore the situation of Liu Biao's army who fled north, and the lone army went deep into the hinterland of Xiangyang to attack Liu Biao's army. Instead, it is a way to attack Lujiang County. Under the leadership of Tai Shici and Fan Chou, the Xuzhou soldiers were only 10,000 Qingzhou soldiers and 3,000 Xiliang iron cavalry. To be honest, being able to attack Jiangling in such a short period of time has actually been thanks to the 10,000 elites who were mobilized by Liu Biao and intended to be used to rescue Huang Zu, so that Tai Shici could get it so quickly. Gangneung is an important town in Jingxiang. and with Xiapi separated by a Jiujiang County in the hands of Cao Cao, clarifying the situation here and consolidating the vested results. The 10,000 Qingzhou soldiers are already a little inadequate, and it is already quite dangerous to be able to divide 3,000 iron cavalry to feign as the main force of the army to confuse the defenders of Xiangyang and make Liu Biao unable to care about each other. Originally, Qin Xu was still a little worried that even if Fan Chou's 3,000 people could confuse the famous Jingxiang general Wen Ping who stayed behind to defend the city, they might not be able to prolong the time for Liu Biao to find out that something was wrong. But in fact, it was not until Liu Biao led the army to come, until he was lucky enough to lead his guards to flee west, but he did not notice the so-called Xuzhou military camp that he wanted to attack at night in retaliation and was forced to take care of it. In fact, it is a Fan Choukong camp that has already evacuated all the horses.

However, after learning that Cai Mao sent by the shadow had successfully taken control of Xiangyang City and contacted Cao Cao to be taken over by him, Qin Xu had some understanding.

It's like someone Qin had a proverb in his previous life. You'll never wake up someone who is pretending to be asleep. Although the Cai family is not a top wealthy family in Jingzhou, in Xiangyang, because of their kinship with Liu Biao and their control of the army for many years. But it's a bit of a doorway. Xuzhou soldiers broke Jiangling. may indeed be unexpected by Cai Mao, while Liu Biao is anxious, Cai Mao is probably also panicked. But Fan Chou's troops besieged Xiangyang City, and it was not so easy to hide it from Cai Mao.

But Cai Mao obviously had her own plans at this time. It is impossible to know when it began, but it only took three or five days after Cai Mao entered Xiangyang City that night, and it was still in Liu Biao's power. successfully took over the important affairs of Xiangyang and contacted Cao Cao as soon as possible. Before others could react, the handover was completed. This is actually quite telling.

But it was an accident in itself, I was fortunate to lose my life, Qin Xu knew that at this time, choosing to tear his face with Cao Cao was by no means a good decision. Cao Cao, Qin Xu, has dealt with him so many times, and he knows that this old thief is definitely not a good person. Maybe when Xuzhou soldiers passed Jiujiang County so easily, there was Lao Cao's handwriting, the purpose was to make this play more real. Around Xiangyang now, maybe a heavy army has already been deployed at this time, just waiting for someone Qin to go up and "join in the fun". When the time comes, Lu Bujun will be given the big hat of attacking the Han clan without authorization, but the gains will outweigh the losses. What's more, although Jiangling City is now under the control of the Xuzhou soldiers, but it is facing the situation of facing the river and being surrounded by enemies on three sides.

Cao Cao is not to be underestimated! Although it was Qin Xu and Lu Bu, the son-in-law of Weng, who surprisingly did not suffer too much disadvantage in the war against Cao Cao, this time Lu Bu's army and Liu Biaojun fought to the death, but in the end, the fisherman benefited from the Nanyang County, Nanjun and Jiangxia County where Xiangyang was located, and successfully opened the door of Jingzhou. And until now, Qin Xu originally sent Tai Shici and Fan Chou to send troops together, but under the banner of the Mi family, Jiang Qin and Zhou Tai, who pretended to be Xuzhou merchants and went west to Sichuan, have not sent back the news. To be honest, Qin Xu is really a little bit of a person like Lao Cao. Wife. Control the diaphragm in the heart.

But fortunately, in the four counties of Jingnan, Changsha, Wuling, Lingling, and Guiyang, Cao Cao, who was beyond the reach of the whip, did not rush to show an indecent appearance and started too quickly when he asked himself that it was not good to start a war with Lu Bujun. In addition, when Liu Biao originally planned to attack Yuzhang, he transferred almost all the troops of these four counties, and when he was "transferred" by Qin Xu, except for Wulingman, who left early in Shamoke's department, Liu Biao's soldiers were taken to Xiangyang by Cai Zhong, making the four counties empty. It happened to be taken advantage of by Lu Bujun. In this way, the final pattern of the battle to defend Jiangdong this time was to provoke the war at the beginning, with the intention of Liu Biaojun, who was the supreme leader, to give birth to civil strife, and made Qin Xu, who had worked hard, and Cao Cao, who was sitting and enjoying his success, to take the river as the line and give up the huge Jingzhou by two or two. This rather ironic ending, it is estimated that for a long time, Liu Biao, who was vainly trying to be greedy for the position of heaven and was good at swordsmanship, will be left for the world to talk about after dinner.

Liu Biao went to defect to Liu Yan, a good brother who has not had a good life for a few days according to Qin Xu's calculations, and the contradiction with Cao Cao's "increasingly sophisticated" has not yet been revealed. It's like a cancer embedded in the four counties of Jingnan, which is no less than the vast territory of Jiangdong, and it is unimaginable to be stubborn. Jiangdong and Jingnan can be regarded as newly acquired lands, and if you want to build an iron plate and become the rear of Lu Bu's army, it is definitely not a day to compete for all the achievements, which is really a headache. Fortunately, after Cai Mao suddenly rebelled, forced Liu Biao away, and sold Xiangyang was exposed. A large number of Wenchen who were originally under Liu Biao's command were not only some die-hard followers who followed Liu Biao up the river to Liu Yan, but also left a considerable part of them in Jingzhou to hesitate, and a few people such as the Kuai brothers were "done" by Cao Cao. Most of them were unwilling to be thieves, and they were unwilling to leave their hometowns, so Guo Jia used a trick to use the shadow to spread Cai Mao and Cao Cao's "disposal methods" about the old ministers of Jingzhou. At the same time, it also lists the Huairou policies of Jiangdong and Jingnan. Liu Biaowenchen, who intended to stay in Jingxiang, was used on a large scale to make an undoubted gesture, which reaped a lot of unexpected joy. At least among these people, Qin Xu knows a lot of names, although it is not as good as the many famous ministers of Zhongxing Shu Han who emerged in the land of Jingxiang more than ten years later, but if it is only to govern one county and one county, it is already much easier than the difficulties that Qin Xu faced when he entered Qingzhou with Lu Bu.

What's more, Qin Xu was still from the small number of remnants left behind in Changsha and Wuling. Intentionally or unintentionally, I found two people who would wake up laughing when they dreamed, perhaps because they were still young. The general, whose light is not yet visible, has finally disappeared from the diaphragm in his chest and abdomen that Cao Cao took advantage of for no reason.

Looking at the resume on the newspaper, Wei Yan, the slightly down-and-out army chief who had recently joined the army, but was squeezed because he was arrogant and refused to flatter the peak, although he was also born in the side branch of the Huang family, but because he was in Jingnan, the territory of the Cai family, Huang Zhong only became a city gate commander. The two of them can be said to have the courage of ten thousand people, especially Huang Zhong, who is now a young man, and the force value is legendary to be close to Lu Bu. Qin Xu only had one kind at that time, even if Jingzhou was won by Cao Cao this time, as long as there were these two people, it was completely worth the excitement of returning the ticket.

Wei Yan is arrogant, isn't it, since he dares to shout in history, "If Cao Jun raises the world, he will reject it; If only 100,000 come, then swallow it", and the scheming and thoughtful fierce general, directly promoted from Shichang to Changsha guard, with the town to guard Wuling, the main purpose is to deal with the Wuling barbarian Ganning, the same as the two defenders of the main general, in order to deal with Cao Cao and Liu Yan who may cross the river at any time. From the chief to the general guarding the "country", he was directly promoted by nearly ten levels, this face is big enough, right? This is grand enough, isn't it? Aren't these capable generals eating this set? In fact, just looking at Wei Yan's face, which is like a jujube, has a tendency to be purple and black, it is enough to see how excited this famous general who has suffered thousands of years of infamy in history is. In this way, Guo Jia coordinated in Jiangdong, and these two generals guarded Jingnan, plus Zang Ba's 20,000 Danyang soldiers, Jiangling's 10,000 Qingzhou soldiers and 3,000 Xiliang iron cavalry. Even if Cao Cao wanted to make a move, he had to estimate the gains and losses and didn't dare to start easily, so that under the control of each other, it could temporarily provide enough time for Jiangling County, which was isolated in the Central Plains, just like Qingzhou Plain County back then, to make a move.

And to recruit Huang Zhong, who is old and strong in history, but now he is still a peerless general in his prime of life, Qin Xu didn't have much effort. Originally, because he was from the Huang family, Huang Zhong, who was resistant to the Lu Bujun who belonged to the enemy army before, was only lightly said by Qin Xu that Hua Tuo was an official in Qingzhou, and he showed a stunned look, and took over the position of Xuzhou town guard general issued by Qin Xu on the spot, and left after Tai Shici led the troops to go on the expedition.

"General Qin! The lord sent you an urgent military letter of 600 miles from Qingzhou, and Guo Junshi saw that the matter was urgent, and he would send it to you as soon as possible! The three fierce generals who were still holding a banquet, Gan Ning, Wei Yan, and Huang Zhong, were like Qin Xu in a dream, and they were stunned when they heard that they were about to go to Wuling to take up their posts. The three new generals also stared, I don't know what it was that Lu Bu did not hesitate to send a letter to him.

"Hah!" Because he was really worried that Lu Bu would be provoked by the old thief against Cao Cao, and if there was any mistake, or he was really angry about Liu Bei's assassination, he would start a war on three sides regardless of it, but it would be too late to regret it. At that moment, Qin Xu didn't care about any etiquette, he opened the sealed bamboo tube in public, only looked at the beginning, and suddenly changed from a dignified look to a happy eyebrow, spread out the silk silk in front of the four generals, and suddenly poured a muddy wine in front of him, sifting or sifting, and poured it down in one gulp!
