"Blacksmith? There are some, too. Cai Mao was stunned for a moment, and then said frankly.

Now in troubled times, the Cai family is so huge that even weapons are prepared, family soldiers, retainers, and so on. Blacksmiths, of course, too.

"I want to borrow ten skilled blacksmiths from my eldest brother." Liu Feng was happy in his heart, to be honest, he was very impressed by some very powerful knives in his heart, but he must not be a blacksmith. It is only in the hands of a skilled blacksmith that impressions become real.

Liu Feng thought about it for a while, and opened his mouth to ask for ten. Not too little, but too much.

You must know that although there were many blacksmiths in this era, most of them were working with agricultural tools. There are very few people who actually forge weapons, let alone those who are highly skilled. It would be good if Cai Mao could lend him ten.

Liu Feng was not wrong, there were not many skilled blacksmiths under Cai Mao, only about twenty. It is for the generals to build excellent weapons and forge armor.

Liu Feng begged for ten at once, and Cai Mao couldn't help but groan for a moment. But the love for his sister in his heart still prevailed. After a moment of silence, he raised his head and said, "Okay." ”

"Thank you, uncle." Liu Feng thanked him.

"Okay, you just need to pay more attention to things here. I can't stay here too long, so I'll go first. Cai Mao said a little tiredly.

Don't underestimate the pressure brought to Cai Mao by meeting with Liu Feng tonight, just talking about how to explain Cai Yu's whereabouts to Liu Biao is enough for Cai Mao to be busy.

At this point, Liu Feng can also guess a few points in his heart.

couldn't help but say: "I don't know how my uncle wants to arrange it, Cai Fu...... Cai Yu? Halfway through, it was no longer appropriate for Liu Feng to call Mrs. Cai again, so he couldn't help but change his words.

"Let's take one step at a time, but it's not easy to fool around." Cai Mao sighed and said.

"I have a solution in my heart, I don't know what my uncle thinks?" Liu Feng raised his eyes and looked at Cai Mao and asked.

"Say." Cai Mao said.

"Cai Yu was once attacked by water thieves in Dongting Lake on the Yangtze River and almost died in the Yangtze River." Liu Feng smiled and said.

"Woe to the East?" Cai Mao's eyes lit up, this is a solution.

"The scourge of water thieves in Dongting Lake is not small. In the past, the reason why Liu Biao tolerated their existence was probably because he was afraid of exterminating these water thieves, and the cost would be too great. Now Zhang Gu, who occupies half of the power of the water thieves in Dongting Lake, has become my general, and the remaining Li Ran is no longer a big threat. If Liu Biao heard that his wife was killed by water thieves, he would definitely raise an army to fight against Li Ran. This not only solved the scourge of water thieves, but also covered up Cai Yu's matter. Liu Feng nodded and said, he thought about this matter for a long time, and still thought that it was better to let Cai Yu "die". And the best object of blame is those water thieves on Dongting Lake.

Moreover, those water thieves once really dispatched people to rob Cai Yu, and the credibility of half-truths and half-truths lies is also the highest.

After thinking for a while, Cai Mao raised his head, glanced at Liu Feng very indifferently, and said: "If Liu Biaozheng fights against the water thieves, and the water thieves flee without being defeated, they will definitely defect to Jiangxia, right?" ”

"Ahem." Liu Feng's face was slightly red, he really thought so, but this matter is not easy to say, the water thief was not prepared for Liu Biao to exterminate it.

"Don't worry, if Liu Biao sends troops to conscript, I will definitely accompany him. When the time comes, kill the thief leader Li Ran, and the rest of the people, if you can release water, I will be waterproof, and when the time comes, you can just pay attention to it yourself. Cai Mao didn't care, but was full of joy, Liu Feng even calculated this little water thief to increase his strength. It means that he has been thinking about defending Jiangxia all day long, and he is really relieved to leave his sister here.

Afterwards, the two said a few words. Cai Mao got up to say goodbye, and Liu Feng personally sent him on the boat.

When Liu Fenghui returned to the house, he found that the lights were still on in the inner room. I saw Cai Yu wearing a coat and sitting on the bed, looking out of the door from time to time. Like a little wife waiting for her husband to return.

After seeing Liu Feng come in, a hint of joy flashed in his eyes.

Liu Feng's heart warmed slightly, and he took off his clothes. hugged Cai Yu and lay down together.

Letting Liu Feng hold him, Cai Yu leaned his head slightly against Liu Feng's chest. Leaning on his man's strong and powerful chest, Cai Yu soon fell asleep.

It's just that Liu Feng has his eyes open and can't sleep.

Judging from the current situation, the war between him and Liu Biao will never be fought. In addition, with Cai Mao here, what kind of conspiracy Liu Biao uses, he can also receive the news as soon as possible.

Just like Liu Feng thought, Liu Biao is definitely not a threat, but a good back.

Compared with Liu Biao, Cao Ying, and Sun Quan are more aggressive. Both of these are ambitious, shrewd and decisive figures.

Among the two, Cao Ying's threat to Jiangxia was not as good as Sun Quan's.

Zhou Yutun's troops were picking mulberry, and the army could be dispatched as long as two or three days to march under the heavy city of Wuchang, a heavy city in Jiangxia.

I hope Zhou Yu can leave him time to prepare. Don't be as impatient as Liu Biao. Liu Feng hoped so.

In the Nanda General's Mansion in Xiangyang Town, Liu Biao said that as usual, he had breakfast first, and then took care of his official business, and then went to the study to read.

Liu Biao is one of the eight horses. Only then did he learn from others. It's because he's studious and often can't get his hands on it. Therefore, most of Liu Biao's time is spent reading books.

Even if he later became the pastor of Jingzhou, it was the same.

Not long after sitting down, a guard entered the door to report that Cai Junshi's statement had arrived. And presented the statement.

Liu Biao was overjoyed, and Jiang Xia took it back. Calculate the time, just four or five days. Wen Ping was really good, let him break through Jiangxia within ten days, and actually broke through it within five days.

While happily accepting the text, Liu Biao was thinking about how to reward Cai Mao and the clerk. and who should do the position of Jiangxia Taishou who is even more troublesome.

It's just that Liu Biao opened the text and read it word by word, but his face became darker and darker. In the end, Cai Mao mentioned that if he was used as a guard, he would not listen to the tune. couldn't help but shoot the case, and called a shaft.

I wanted to immediately order Cai Mao to attack Jiang Xia recklessly. It's just that Liu Biao found powerlessly that he didn't have the courage to give this order.

In the study, Liu's surface sank like water. The desk in front of him was messy, and there were bamboo slips scattered everywhere. You must know that Liu Biao is a book lover, and his love for bamboo slips even exceeds that of women.

This kind of tantrum with bamboo slips has almost never happened, which shows the depression in Liu Biao's heart.

Like Cai Mao, Liu Biao never thought that Liu Feng would be so decisive. Since you want to dedicate the city you have in hand to Cao Ying, or Sun Quan, why do you want to take the city so desperately? The so-called dedication of the city to Cao Ying, to obtain glory and wealth? What a joke. Liu Biao didn't believe it when he was killed. Although Liu Feng's family wealth is a lot, it is enough to spend the rest of his life in peace, and he put his surname on his life for the so-called glory and wealth, and he fought to the death with Huang Zu.

No fool would do such a thing.

The only answer is that Liu Feng wants Jiang Xia, so he will fight with Huang Zu.

This is also one of the reasons why Liu Biao did not hesitate to order Wenpin to recruit Liu Feng, and asked Wenpin to go out within one day and break Jiangxia within ten days.

In order to take down Jiang Xia and behead Liu Feng before Liu Feng was still greedy for Jiang Xia, before the Quartet could react.

But the development of things is often unexpected, judging from Cai Mao's statement, Liu Feng has the intention to occupy Jiangxia, but if he is in a hurry, he can also decisively dedicate Jiangxia to Sun Quan or Cao Ying.

Cai Mao also praised Liu Feng in the text. It is said that it is bold to attack Huang Zu when the soldiers are outnumbered, and it is a general strategy to kill Huang Zu, and he can afford to let go, and in the unfavorable situation, he can exchange Jiangxia for a way of life, which is his decisiveness.

It's really a momentary figure.

It's just that such a character is the one who wants to oppose him. Liu Biao felt uncomfortable no matter how he looked at it. Especially in the end, Liu Feng got cheap and behaved, saying that if he appointed Liu Feng as Jiangxia Taishou, he would not listen to the tune or the announcement.

What is this.

It stands to reason that Liu Biao should immediately order Wen Ping to attack the city and crush Liu Feng to death. But Liu Biao didn't dare to act rashly.

Liu Feng's threats are bloody, and every word is like a knife.

He didn't dare to imagine what kind of impact Liu Feng would have on Jingzhou when he dedicated the city to Sun Quan or Cao Ying when the dog jumped over the wall in a hurry.

Not only has a barrier been lost, but also a strategic and in-depth strategic location has been lost. directly burned the flames of war into Jingzhou.

At this time, Liu Feng was like a child holding gold, with three adults next to him. Among them, Cao Ying is the strongest, and Sun Quan's second son, he is the weakest.

He was also the one who couldn't wait to get the gold, but when he reached out to grab it. The child made a gesture to hand over the gold to the stronger Cao Ying, Sun Quan.

Liu Biao found that he had no way to snatch the gold except for good words and appeasement. That is, there is no way to take Liu Feng.

ordered Wen Ping to attack with all his might, but in exchange for such a result. Liu Biao only felt tightness in his chest and wanted to vomit blood.

What to recapture Jiangxia, what to consider who will continue to be Jiangxia Taishou. After Cai Mao's statement was delivered, it became empty words and jokes.

While Liu Biao was gloomy, he couldn't help but think of Liu Bei, Liu Feng's nominal father. Compared with Liu Bei, Liu Feng is even more difficult to deal with.

The site is bigger and the location is better. There is also a lot of courage, ability, and determination.

Suddenly, Liu Biao felt a little better again. I heard that Liu Bei personally forced this scourge away, and now the power of this abandoned son is greater than that of Lao Tzu. I don't know if Liu Bei will be more depressed than him after hearing the news?

To say that Liu Biao has no good impression of Liu Bei in his heart. Liu Bei erected benevolence and virtue in Xinye and bought people's hearts. For Liu Biao, it is like a sharp edge in the back. Now Liu Biao has already regretted that he had sheltered Liu Bei in the first place.

It was Liu Biaoyi who gloated over Liu Bei and made fun of it. It can be regarded as relieving the depression in my heart.

Subsequently, Liu Biao's face sank like water, and while he was dissatisfied with Liu Fengqian, he also gritted his teeth and wrote an appointment document, ordering Liu Feng to be the Taishou of Jiangxia. After writing down the paperwork, Liu Biao did not send it out immediately, but held it in his hand and sighed lightly, "I hope you can keep your promise, resist Zhou Yu in the east, and reject Cao Ren in the north." ”

Now the only thing that makes Liu Biao feel a little comforted is this. Liu sealed Huang Zu and proved his ability. If he can truly guard the east, Jingzhou will be safer.

Inexplicably relieved in his heart, Liu Biao's face looked a little better. Only then did he send the documents in his hand to his relatives. Ordered it to go east and send it to Jiangxia.

After doing all this, Liu Biao didn't think much about Jiangxia. What he has to do now is how to appease the Taishou in Jingzhou, Huang Zu was killed, but he can't avenge him, but instead appoints the murderer as the Taishou. If this matter is not done well, it will cause turmoil in Jingzhou, and Liu Biao has to be cautious and cautious.

At the same time, Liu Biao's document soon came to Jiangxia, and Wen Ping and Cai Mao of course also retreated. The mighty army, how to come, how to go back. It's just that when I go out, I am full of spirit and momentum. When I went back this time, it was a little gray.

In the hall of Xiakou Taishoufu, Liu Feng received the documents from among the officials sent by Liu Biao. Facing Gan Ning, who was sitting on the side seat, Zhang Gu smiled: "Release this news." ”

Liu Feng knew that when he occupied Jiangxia, his identity was a thief. And now because of Liu Biao's appointment, his identity is an official.

There is nothing more reassuring than this identity.

It's just that when Gan Ning released the news, he added a little more fuel and vinegar. Cover the aura on Liu Feng's body. It is said that Liu Feng has one person and one boat, crossed the river in brocade clothes, and retreated the 10,000 elites hired by Wen.

Left a legend recited by countless people and crossed the river in brocade.

It's just that in addition, it also added a lot of prestige to Liu Feng, and to a certain extent, it also covered up the negative image of Liu Feng running away from Xinye in embarrassment.

paved the way for Liu Feng to rule Jiangxia.
