Fang Shao and the other Yizhou legions arrived at Jiangling on the front foot, and the Dongwu rear foot launched an offensive, it seems that they also heard the news that Lieutenant General Shu sent reinforcements, and decided to take advantage of the fact that the Yizhou legion had not had time to rest, and took the lead.

"Old general, Dongwu has turned his face, why don't we ask for the surname to go east and give the Wu people some color to see."

Huang Quan told his Huang Zhong family surnamed Huang that after all, the nominal commander of this Yizhou legion is Huang Zhong, whether he is fighting or defending, and he should obey Huang Zhong's command.

Huang Zhong was not in a hurry to make a decision, but stroked his white beard and looked around at everyone, and said, "I don't know what you think?" ”

Na Mi Wei hurriedly said: "Old general, Wu Renshui is unstoppable, we can't easily fight with it, since General Guan ordered me to wait for vigilance and standby, according to Wei's opinion, it is better not to act rashly." ”

This is, Meng Da smiled and said: "Although the Wu people's water army is profitable, but this time we are here with a sharp weapon to break the enemy, according to Da's opinion, our army went down the river, straight to Xiangshuikou, and killed the Wu people in one breath without leaving a piece of sail." ”

Huang Zhong nodded slightly, and said: "Zidu is reasonable, then please Mi Taishou quickly contact General Guan, we will go east from Jiangling, General Guan's naval army will go upriver from Xiakou, and our front troops will attack and destroy the Wu people's naval army in Dongting Lake." ”

Obviously, whether it is Meng Da, who is a scholar from Dongzhou, or Huang Quan, a scholar from Yizhou, they are eager to start a war with Dongwu.

As for Huang Zhong, although he is also from Jingzhou, he is not Liu Bei's descendant, he is not like Mi Zhu, Sun Qian and others, as long as he follows Liu Bei, Liu Bei's power expands one step, and their power will be one step higher. As Liu Biao's old department, Huang Zhong, if he wants to have a place in Liu Bei's group, he must continue to make meritorious contributions and earn fame and fortune with his own hands.

Mi Wei over there was a little anxious, and said in his heart: "General Guan's temper is easy to provoke, if you know that they don't obey orders, you will be furious, and maybe even I will be unlucky." ”

Mi Wei was afraid, and hurriedly persuaded: "You have come from afar, and it is very hard for the soldiers to come, even if you want to start a war with the Wu people, you don't have to rush for a while, it is not too late to rest and recuperate in Jiangling before making plans." ”

In fact, this time when he returned to Jingzhou, the reason why Zhuge Liang recommended him as the mastermind in the army was not only because he was trusted by Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang, coupled with his resourcefulness, but also because he had a very good relationship with Guan Ping and had a good relationship with his father, so Liu Bei sent him back to Jingzhou with the army, and he also had the intention of letting him coordinate between the Yizhou Legion and the Jingzhou Legion.

Obviously, Meng Da's gang has not had deep contact with Guan Yu, and I don't know the temper of this second master Guan, although Liu Bei did not make it clear that the Yizhou army is under the command of Guan Yu, but now in Jingzhou, whether it is fame, qualifications or official position, Guan Yu is a veritable boss, if this meeting blatantly does not take his orders in his eyes, the consequences can be imagined.

So, Fang Shao stood up when everyone was arguing, and said with a smile: "It's a matter of time before Wu is broken, but we came all the way from Yizhou, traveling more than 1,000 miles, as Jianwu said, it is inevitable that the soldiers will be physically and mentally exhausted, and the Wu people will wait for work, so they will go to war without rest, General Huang Lao has been on the battlefield for a long time, and he must know that this is a taboo for soldiers." ”

Fang Shao's words really carried more weight than Mi Wei, and when everyone heard his words, their desire to fight suddenly weakened, and Huang Zhong also changed his breath and said: "Zhongzheng's words are also in line with the art of war, so what should be done according to Zhongzheng's intentions." ”

Fang Shao said: "Jiangling and the public security are both the key points of Nanjun, and now half of the general's naval division is stationed in Jiangling, which can be described as solid, if I wait to move to the public security, one can strengthen the public security garrison, and the other can also form a north-south horn with General Guan." After a short rest, it would be safer to discuss the matter of entering the army with General Guan in detail. ”

Fang Shao's method was very ingenious, not only complying with Guan Yu's order to be on standby, but also not leaving the soldiers and horses in Guan Yu's base camp Jiangling, which indirectly showed that their Yizhou legion was not completely subordinate to Guan Yu, but had a certain reading ability.

Meng Dan's smart people naturally understood Fang Shao's meaning, and immediately changed their tone to express their approval, while Mi Wei also breathed a sigh of relief and no longer raised objections.

So, Huang Zhong ordered these 10,000 soldiers and horses to cross the Yangtze River to the south, and they were stationed in the ready-made water village of the public security that night.

Two days later, they received an order from Guan Yu in Jiangbei, telling them to go to Jiangling to discuss a strategy to deal with Eastern Wu.

Fang Shao and the others discussed it, and then left Huang Quan to guard the camp, and he went to Jiangling with Huang Zhong and Meng Da to meet Guan Yu.

This time Guan Yu heard that the Wu army blocked the Xiangshuikou, so he left more than 10,000 sailors to guard Xiakou, and he took 5,000 sailors to come overnight through the tributaries between Hanshui and Jiangling, but he did not dare to take the Yangtze River waterway.

In the Chinese military tent, Guan Yu sat on the main seat, his beautiful hair moved slightly with the Jiang Feng who stole into the tent, his eyes closed slightly, ignoring everyone, which made people feel a sense of awe.

Half a year later, Fang Shao saw Guan Yu again, perhaps because of Guan Yu's surname of the light soldier and the slow doctor, Fang Shao always had a trace of fear of this person, and he always stayed away, and he actually had little contact, although he had a good personal relationship with his son Guan Ping.

Everyone couldn't help but get nervous under the oppression of Guan Yu's aura, and even Meng Da, who had always prided himself on being casual and dashing, couldn't help but tighten up at this time, and carefully greeted Guan Yu.

For the greetings of others, Guan Yu only nodded slightly, but when Fang Shao came up to greet him, Guan Yu rarely showed a smile on his face that couldn't be lighter, and said, "Zhongzheng, don't come unharmed." ”

For Guan Yu's special greeting, Fang Shao was a little flattered, and hurriedly said: "Thanks to the general's blessing, everything is going well." ”

Guan Yu said again: "I heard that this time to take Yizhou, you have made a lot of good suggestions to your brother, and the credit is not small." ”

Fang Shao said humbly: "In fact, this time to take Sichuan, thanks to the wisdom and decisiveness of the lord, the planning of Shiyuan military division, as well as the careful layout of Xiaozhi, Zidu and others, Shao is just doing his best, it is really insignificant." Besides, or in terms of merit, General Guan sits in Jingzhou and ensures that the lord has no worries, which is the real great achievement. ”

While Fang Shao showed humility, he praised everyone, and at the end, he didn't forget to pat Guan Yu on the back.

Obviously, this sycophant is very useful to Guan Yu, so he smiled and stroked his beard and said: "I am sitting in Jingzhou, but I am just loyal to my duties, and I can't talk about any credit." But this defense is not necessarily easier than the attack, Sun Quan's blue-eyed child in the east is always as annoying as mosquitoes, no, now it is starting to buzz again. ”

Fang Shao also looked down on Sun Quan, but that was just looking down on Sun Quan's overall view of the pain, and he still admired this person's power skills, while Guan Yu completely despised Sun Quan, and even openly compared him to mosquitoes and flies, which was really disdainful.

Everyone laughed along, in order to match Guan Yu's sarcasm of Sun Quan, and after laughing, Fang Shao said: "The Wu people are more annoying, and the lord has said that he will return them to Jingzhou in the future, but they still keep pestering." Therefore, this time the lord sent me to wait, just to assist General Guan and give the Wu people some colors. ”

"Sun Quan's little boy is not worried, but the naval army he is stationed in Lukou is still quite capable, and you can't be underestimated." Although Guan Yu is arrogant, he is still very clear about the interests and disadvantages of Wu Jun.

Fang Shao then said: "Although the Wu people's naval army is not weak, but now they have blocked the Xiangshui Pass and cut off the passage to the three southern counties, we can't sit idly by, but I don't know how General Guan plans to advance and retreat from the enemy." ”

Guan Yu said: "Although the Wu people have the advantage of the navy, the foot battle is like child's play. My plan is to assist my Jingzhou naval army, hold the Yangtze River, and prevent the Wu people from invading Nanjun along the Yangtze River. I personally led an infantry army from the oil south to rescue the four counties. ”

These people from Yizhou glanced at each other, and Fang Shao smiled and said: "Although General Guan's plan is safe, the lord's intention is to fight with Eastern Wu this time, and the attack should be the main thing, so I specially ordered me to lead this water division to come, in order to thwart the Wu people's water army and seize the Yangtze River waterway." ”

Guan Yu paused for a moment, then suddenly burst out laughing. Of course, Fang Shao could hear what his laughter meant, and of course he was sarcastically saying that the Jingzhou Navy Army that Lao Tzu had led for so many years did not dare to confront the Wu Army head-on, but you mountain people from Yizhou were so arrogant that they wanted to seize the Yangtze River waterway, which was really funny.

In other words, if others laughed at him like this, Fang Shao would definitely sell Guan Zi for a while, and then let him be shocked, but it was Guan Yu in front of him, and the reason why people were so presumptuous was because they had capital, so although Fang Shao was unhappy, he didn't dare to play a small trick, so he had to say truthfully: "I can't hide it, I waited for this time, in fact, I brought a hundred Shenwei cannons with the ship, this thing is hugely powerful, and it can easily destroy the Wu people's giant ship, it is precisely because of this thing that the lord is determined to fight a decisive battle with the Wu people in the water battle." ”

As soon as Fang Shao's words came out, Guan Yu's laughter stopped suddenly, as if he suddenly figured out why Liu Bei, who had always been restrained and forbearing, suddenly became stiff this time, and even wanted to fight for his own strengths, as Fang Shao said, it was obvious that he was hiding his backhand.

"There is such an artifact? Show me what to see. ”

Guan Yu actually held his breath in his heart, and now that he heard that there was a weapon to break the Wu people's giant ship, he was immediately interested, so he couldn't wait to go to the dock to watch a divine cannon brought by Fang Shao and the others.

At this time, it was noon, and smoke rose everywhere in the barracks, Guan Yu and the others walked through the barracks to the wharf, and when they passed a camp tent, they suddenly heard the complaints of soldiers in the tent.

"Didn't General Guan say that he would reward a pound of meat, which is obviously three or four taels less."

"You are content, how can there be a peak who does not deduct rewards, our camp is not bad, I heard that the captain of the second dog and their battalion, a pound of meat can deduct you more than six taels."

"Alas, it's okay, our general Guan is still treating us well, there is meat to eat every once in a while, when I was under Liu Biao, it would be good to drink some broth during the New Year."

…… The words of the two soldiers clearly reached Guan Yu's ears, and his jujube-like face immediately sank, and when he turned around, he ordered Zhou Cang to arrest the captain of this battalion.

Zhou Cang didn't dare to delay, so he immediately took a few people and went there, and arrested a junior colonel in a short time. The little colonel didn't know what mistake he had made, but when he looked at Guan Yu's face, he was so frightened that his legs and feet became weak and his face turned pale.

Guan Yu pointed at the little colonel and said: "I arrested you so that you know why you died, I, Guan Yu, treat the soldiers like brothers and sisters, but everyone knows it, but you dog thing dare to withhold their reward!" Hmph, come on, drag him down and behead him, and then hang his head in the gate, and give me a good shock to those officials who don't know what to do! ”
