Chapter 013: Jiangxia Lost

As soon as Liu Bei walked to the door of the hall, he saw Cai Mao stumbling and hurriedly ran in.

"Brother-in-law is not good, it is not good!"

", your brother-in-law and I'm okay!" It's really fucking unlucky, Liu Biao is unhappy.

"No, no, brother-in-law, Jiang Xia, Jiang Xia is lost!"

"Bang dang!" The wine glass in his hand fell to the ground. "Jiang Xia?"

"Yes!"

"Where's Huang Zu?"

"General Huang, he's dead!"

Liu Biao closed his eyes, his chest heaving, trying to suppress the pain and anger in his heart. After a while, Liu Biao opened his eyes, his eyes were red, "What the hell is going on?" You explain it to me carefully! Cai Mao hurriedly explained the cause and effect of the matter.

Huang Zu, a member of the Jiangxia Huang clan in Jingzhou, is of the same clan as Huang Xiang, a famous minister of the Eastern Han Dynasty. When Liu Biao was the pastor of Jingzhou, Jingzhou was very chaotic and difficult to govern. Liu Biao adopted Kuai Yue and Cai Mao's suggestion, recruited some local heroes as wings, and concentrated his efforts to eliminate those local heroes who were unwilling to obey him, and soon pacified Jingzhou. Therefore, many of Liu Biao's subordinates are the sons of the powerful clan in Jingzhou. This Huang Zu is one of them. At the beginning, Liu Biao had just become the pastor of Jingzhou, and his foundation was unstable. Yuan Shu, who occupied Huainan, saw that he could take advantage of the opportunity to send someone to contact his old subordinates, Sun Jian, who was the Taishou of Changsha County in Jingzhou at that time, that is, Sun Quan's father, made an appointment to attack Liu Biao in the north and south, and after the matter was completed, the land of the nine counties of Jingzhou was divided equally.

Sun Jian is a sincere person, and when he saw that his old superiors had an explanation, he was not easy to refuse, and when he saw the rich returns, he became evil for a while. Sent troops to attack the garrison Xiangyang, nominally the new Jingzhou Mu Liu Biao, his immediate boss. In fact, this is not the first time Sun Jian has done this kind of thing, Liu Biao's predecessor Wang Rui, the assassin of Jingzhou, was destroyed by Sun Jian, but Liu Biao and Liu Biao are not Wang Rui, this person still has some ability, although he has just taken office, he is not a vegetarian. He immediately ordered his subordinates, Huang Zu, who was then the Taishou of Jiangxia County, to send troops to resist Sun Jian. Of course, Huang Zu is not the opponent of Sun Jian, the Jiangdong Tiger, he was defeated by Sun Jian at the beginning of the war, and he escaped from the Han River in a hurry, but it can be said that people are unlucky to drink cold water and stuff their teeth! The victory was already a foregone conclusion. As a result, when Mr. Sun Jian led the army to cross the Han River to pursue Huang Zu, he was actually shot to death by a stray arrow! led to a great defeat of his subordinates. Therefore, it is true to say that history is the result of the interaction between accidental and inevitable factors. Mr. Sun Jian died purely by accident. Sun Jian's death caused the Jiangxia Huang family to form a feud with the Jiangdong Sun family. From the third year of Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty (192 AD) when Sun Jian was shot by Huang Zu's subordinates in Da Xian Mountain (now the southern part of Xiangyang City, Hubei) to the thirteenth year of Jian'an (208 AD), the two leaders of Sun Ce and Sun Quan of Eastern Wu never stopped attacking Jiangxia. Of course, it has never been successful. However, at the beginning of this year, Huang Zubu's defection of Gan Ning to Jiangdong reversed things. In the spring of this year, under the leadership of Gan Ning, Sun Quan once again led a large army to storm Jiangxia County, this time Huang Zu was not so lucky, the army of Eastern Wu finally broke through Jiangxia, and Huang Zu was also killed by the rebel general Gan Ning. Sun Quan was still angry when he killed Huang Zu, and ordered his subordinates to slaughter the city for three days. Jiangxia County suddenly became a purgatory on earth.

After listening to Cai Mao's narration, Liu Biao slowly calmed down, as an outstanding military and political leader, Liu Biao knew very well when he could lose his temper unscrupulously and when he had to calm down immediately. At this time, Liu Biao had already come out of the shock and pain just now, and he began to comprehensively assess what kind of serious consequences this Jiangxia fiasco would cause, and what measures must be taken immediately to deal with it to minimize the harm. Liu Biao thought for a while, then glanced up at Cai Mao who was standing beside him, "De Jue! ”

"Hey! Brother-in-law, you say! ”

"Jiangxia County spans the river, close to Xiangyang, as the eastern barrier of my Jingzhou, and now that Jiangxia is lost, the eastern gateway of my Jingzhou is wide open, which is a big matter related to the life and death of the nine counties of Jingxiang! We can't afford not to be cautious! ”

"What my brother-in-law said is very true!"

"In this way, you immediately send someone to Changsha with my handwritten letter, and order General Huang Zhong to lead his army north to garrison Baqiu to prevent Wu's army from going south to invade the four counties in the south of the Yangtze River. He then ordered Zhang Yun to lead the naval division to garrison the mouth of the Jiangxia River to prevent the Shuojiang River of the Eastern Wu Naval Division from going north to threaten Xiangyang. Just go! ”

"Okay, I'll go!"

"Slow, also, you ordered the Jingzhou Taishou generals and above to meet in the council hall tomorrow!"

"Okay, I'll go!" Cai Mao took Liu Biao's order and rushed out of the door non-stop. Liu Bei was very embarrassed standing at the door here! It's not good to go, it's not good to stay! Exactly overwhelmed! Liu Biao only noticed at this time that Liu Bei hadn't left yet!

"Brother Xian hasn't left yet!"

"Yes! Brother, the loss of Jiangxia is really unexpected by everyone, and the killing of General Huang Lao is sad. Take care of your health, brother! Don't be too sad! ”

"Hey! Although it is a pity that Jiangxia is lost, I am not very sad, what I am sad about is the death of Huang Zu. Huang Zu is a veteran who pacified Jingzhou with me! After so many ups and downs, I didn't expect him to suffer this catastrophe before me. It really hurts me! ”

"Brother's Day, the most important thing now is to discuss how to deal with the aftermath!"

"Well, since Brother Xian is here, don't leave yet, tomorrow the council hall will be assembled, and we will discuss it together!"

"Well, since my brother has a life, what else can Liu Bei say?"

Liu Bei stayed overnight in the Jingzhou Pastoral Mansion, and went to the Jingzhou Council Hall with Liu Biao early the next morning. The Jingzhou Council Hall was built by Liu Biao as the pastor of Jingzhou, although it sounds very magnificent, in fact, the overall construction is very simple, and the internal setting is also very simple. This is the result of Liu Biao's advocacy of frugality.

The council hall was not far from the state governor's mansion, and when Liu Biao arrived, Jingzhou officials had already arrived. When everyone saw Liu Biao coming, they all got up and saluted. Liu Bei followed behind Liu Biao and greeted everyone one by one. Liu Bei has lived in Jingzhou for many years, and most of the officials here Liu Bei know him. Personal training with many of them is also very good. The Jingzhou counselor who reported last time was one of them. Liu Biao sat down in the main seat of the main hall. Liu Bei was placed in the first position under Liu Biao. Although Liu Bei came to Liu Biao in poverty, it stands to reason that he is Liu Biao's subordinate. However, because Liu Bei holds the title of Yuzhou Mu and has the identity of the emperor's uncle, Liu Biao is not really good at treating him as a subordinate, so he has always been commensurate with Liu Bei's brothers. gave Liu Bei a high treatment, but he was unwilling to reuse him. After Liu Biao sat down, Jingzhou's civil and military forces also sat down in order. is the so-called "left Wen and right martial arts", so the first place on Liu Biao's left hand side is the head of Jingzhou's civil officials, don't drive Liu Xian, and the first seat on the right hand side is Liu Biao's brother-in-law Cai Mao. After everyone sat down, Liu Biao glanced at everyone.

"Is there anyone else who hasn't come?"

The celebrant stepped forward and knelt down to talk, "If you return to the lord, the civil officials above the Taishou level in Jingzhou, and the military generals above the colonel are all here!" ”

"Okay, let's get started!"

The celebrant stood up and sang loudly, "The military plane is heavy, the idlers retreat, the soldiers outside the door retreat ten steps, and the discussion is closed!" ”

After the celebrant finished singing, he slowly withdrew from the chamber.
