On the second day, someone came to the post house to invite Liu Meng to meet Liu Biao.

Under the leadership of the comer, Liu Meng came to the Xiangyang City Shoufu, and when he saw the destination, Liu Meng knew that he was afraid that there would be some twists and turns when he borrowed grain.

If Liu Biao saw him in his own mansion, it would be a little close, but now he chose to see him in the city guard's mansion, showing a business-like attitude.

Sure enough, after Liu Meng entered the council hall, he saw a lot of people, this is Jingzhou Wenwu, these people are lined up on both sides, and the person in the center looks like he is nearly fifty years old but has a gentle and majestic appearance.

"These famous families have all given birth to a good skin, and the Yuan brothers were the same before, but unfortunately this is not the era of looking at faces, fists are the truth." Liu Meng sighed secretly.

"I've seen Liu Jingzhou." Liu Meng hugged his fists.

Seeing Liu Biao's businesslike attitude, Liu Meng didn't want to go to the trap, although he had a request for Liu Biao this time, but he also needed to pay.

"Anping Hou doesn't need to be like this, we are all relatives of the Han family, I admire you very much for your previous rescue actions, but Jingzhou is not peaceful, and the thieves are raging so that although I have the heart to help, I am powerless." Liu Biao said sincerely.

"Are you blind to me? Does Jingzhou seem to be not peaceful? Even if there are thieves disturbing Jingzhou, it should be quickly pacified by you, so I don't need to be like this, then you still call me Anping Hou? Liu Meng said with contempt in his heart.

However, this is also in line with Liu Biao's character, it seems that his life has been mainly to defend Jingzhou, and he has only taken the initiative to send troops once, and it seems that he has died, and Liu Meng is not very clear about the specific situation.

"Sharing worries for the saint is a matter for the courtiers, and Liu Jingzhou's efforts to keep a state safe are also a move to share worries for the saint." Liu Meng praised Liu Biao.

"I don't have enough ability, I just want to keep the people safe, Anping Hou has a good reputation, I don't know what happened this time?" Liu Biao asked.

"Now that winter is coming, I am a little short of food and grass because of the repeated use of soldiers, so I came here to borrow grain this time."

"Oh? The Marquis of Anping has repeatedly used troops for the country, and now I can't sit idly by and watch when there is a difficulty, Kuai Liang. How much food can I take out in Jingzhou to help Anpinghou? ”

"Jingzhou's money and grain are all in charge of Zirou." Liu Biao explained to Liu Meng.

"Back to the lord, the thieves were initially decided, and our army had a lot of food and grass consumption in the previous battle with Yuan Shu, and there will definitely be a big war in the coming year, so Jingzhou does not have much surplus food. You can take out up to 50,000 stones. Kuai Liang said.

Fifty thousand stones? Before coming to Jingzhou, Guo Jia told him that he had to borrow at least 100,000 stones to survive this winter, and 50,000 stones was categorically not enough.

Jingzhou is so rich that it can only take out 50,000 stones? Whether others believe it or not, he Liu Meng doesn't believe it.

"Marquis Anping should also know about the previous borrowing of grain by Yuan Highway, his people have been looking at Jingzhou for a long time, and borrowing grain is just to find an excuse. Our army is also tired of coping. Liu Biao looked bitter.

Liu Biao's attitude at this time made Liu Meng guess that he didn't see him yesterday, it should be Liu Biao and his subordinates Wenwu discussing his Liu Meng's intentions, it seems that he now has Luoyang, Chang'an and other places that have made all the princes pay attention to him, this remark is that Liu Biao is asking for conditions, but fortunately, Liu Meng also planned to do so before he came, and it did not surprise him.

"The Yuan brothers have indeed gone too far recently, their brother has taken Jizhou by himself, and his brother is watching the land of Jingzhou, I will naturally not sit idly by as the relatives of the Han family, and I will definitely lead troops to help after the spring of next year." Liu Meng said.

"If the Marquis of Anping is willing to raise troops to help, Yuan Shu will naturally be defeated in a short time, and our army will not be able to consume so much grain and grass. It should be possible to come up with 150,000 stones to solve the urgent need of An Pinghou. Kuai Liang said.

"Brother Fengyi, is 150,000 stone grain and grass enough?" Liu Biao said with a smile.

It's so realistic that even the title has changed after I made a statement.

"Thank you Brother Jingsheng for your help, I will definitely raise troops in the coming year." Liu Meng responded.

150,000 has exceeded the original estimate, even if more displaced people pour in in the later period, it is enough to support.

After the two negotiated the conditions, Liu Biao ordered a banquet to be held for Liu Meng, which could be regarded as a joy for the guests and hosts.

The next day, Liu Biao ordered the grain and grass and sent the army to Hedong.

The matter of borrowing grain has been resolved, and Liu Meng planned to travel around to see if he could meet any talents, but Guo Jia's sudden secret report disrupted Liu Meng's plan.

"Due to the lack of grain for the winter and hearing that there is a lot of grain in Hedong, the first Zhou Cang of the Montenegrin army led 300,000 thieves to the east of the river."

Liu Meng gasped after reading the secret report. Chu Yan is now under his command, so Liu Meng didn't expect that there would be a Montenegrin army.

This is Liu Meng's own cognitive error, the Montenegrin Army in the game is indeed led by Chu Yan, but it was initiated by Zhang Niujiao in history. After Zhang Niujiao's death, Cai returned to Chu Yan, and later because of Zhang Niujiao, Chu Yan changed his name to Zhang Yan.

Because Chu Yan has been under Liu Meng's command, history has shifted slightly, and Zhou Cang, who had escaped from Liu Meng's hands, became the commander of the Montenegrin Army after Zhang Niujiao's death.

Zhou Cang came this time to grab grain for the winter, and secondly, to avenge his previous revenge.

Liu Meng didn't dare to delay when he saw the secret report, and gave up the idea of looking for talents. led Ren Xiu'er and hurried to the east of the river.

The number of 300,000 thieves is too huge, most of these people are the remnants of the Yellow Turban, and after all these years of fighting with the official army, it can be regarded as a rebirth, compared to the original Yellow Turban Rebellion, the combat power has also been enhanced, which is not to be underestimated.

The Montenegrin army was not all tied together in normal times, and it would take some time to gather, so when Liu Meng rushed back to Hedong, the thieves had not yet arrived.

"Fengxiao, what is the situation now?" Liu Meng hurriedly asked Guo Jia.

"The situation is not optimistic, and the rest of the thieves in Bingzhou also responded after hearing that Zhou Cang raised troops, and at this time there were 500,000 thieves, which should be most of the thieves in the whole territory of Bingzhou." Guo Jia said with a solemn face,

300,000 people is terrible enough, and 500,000 people even Guo Jia, who is usually conceited and resourceful, has to worry.

Liu Meng was even more shocked, at this time, the Xiliang soldiers had also been reorganized, but with these people, Hedong now only had more than 60,000 soldiers, and the number of enemy troops was nearly ten times that of his own army.

Although Liu Meng has unparalleled confidence in the combat power of his own army, he knows that it is impossible to think about it with one enemy and ten enemies, if these 500,000 people are the same as those people who have just put down their farm tools at the beginning of the Yellow Turban, but these people are now all thieves who have been sharpened for several years and licked blood.

"Chang'an soldiers can't move, although they have formed an alliance with Ma Teng, but once the Chang'an troops are evacuated, it is inevitable that they will have other thoughts, even if Ma Teng will not do this, beware of Han Sui, Luoyang Gongming has just recruited soldiers, and it can't be used without training, and now it's winter, and all the princes have quit the sword soldiers, and it may not be possible to ask for help from outside, we can only rely on ourselves." Liu Meng said in a deep voice. (To be continued.) )
