After Tian Fan's few words, the generals immediately put away their contempt for Yuan Shujun. They talked with Liu Bei for a while, and then left for the barracks. Liu Bei and others discussed the matter of Anmin and borrowing grain from large local households, and it was not until a long time that they dispersed.

Early the next morning, the Xiquyang guard sent a letter of surrender. In the afternoon, the army took over Xiquyang, and so far, only Shouchun and Liyang in the entire Jiujiang County are still in the hands of Yuan Shu.

On August 12, Liu Bei ordered Chen to defend Xiquyang, and went out to ten miles outside Shouchun to set up camp.

That night, after arranging the defense, the generals gathered together.

Of the five military advisors, only Chen Deng, Chen Gong, and Xu Shu were there, and Lu Su and Liu Ye, as well as many small officials in the army, were sent by Liu Bei to Jiujiang counties to contact the local clans.

The generals in the big tent sat down, looking at Liu Bei with blazing eyes, just waiting for him to give the order.

Liu Bei smiled slightly, looked at the three military advisors and Tian Fan's generals, and asked, "You all tell me, how to fight?" ”

Xu Shu said: "Lord, isn't the strategy formulated?" It's good to fight according to the strategy, what else is there to discuss? ”

Chen Gong smiled slightly and said, "Yes, what Yuan Zhi said is reasonable. My lord, according to the strategy we have formulated in advance, first cut off its wings, and then concentrate on attacking Shouchun with all our might. Looking at it now, this strategy is correct. Jiujiang County has almost been pacified, and most of the counties in Lujiang County have also surrendered, and only a few counties have not yet expressed any expression, so we can concentrate our forces to attack Shouchun. ”

Chen Deng nodded and said, "Not bad!" Glancing at Tian Fan, he said, "Boguang, are you ready to send troops to Shu County?" ”

Tian Fan smiled and said, "Exactly!" As he spoke, he looked at Liu Bei and said, "Lord, everything is ready, but everything must be up to the lord." If the lord says that he wants to fight Shouchun, then we will fight Shouchun, if the lord says that all the places will be pacified first, and then come to fight Shouchun, then everyone will still listen to the lord! ”

Liu Bei smiled and said, "I think, let's follow the prior strategy!" Since only Shu County is left in Lujiang County, then you can go and call me down. Also, Zilong ......"

As he spoke, Liu Bei looked at Zhao Yun.

Zhao Yun hugged his fists and said: "Lord, Zhao Yun is here!" ”

Liu Bei bowed slightly, and said: "You take 10,000 cavalry to Liyang, don't take Liyang, just cut off the only way for them to reinforce." Well...... If they're out of town, you might as well give them a hit! ”

Zhao Yun clenched his fists and shouted: "Yun Deling!" ”

Liu Bei looked at Tian Fan again and said, "Boguang, how many troops do you want to bring?" Want to take those generals with you? ”

When Lu Bu, Zhang Fei, Lu Yi, Gao Shun, and Guan Yu heard this, they immediately turned their blazing eyes to Tian Fan, and one or two of them beat their eyes, that means, choose me, you must choose me!

Tian Fan didn't look at them, but at the last of the generals.

Glancing at them one by one, Tian Fan looked at Liu Bei, hugged his fists and said: "Lord, in terms of generals, I want a big general, a few young generals!" ”

Liu Bei said: "Oh? That general, and those young generals? ”

Tian Fan pointed to a few young generals and said, "Pang De, Wei Yan, Hao Zhao, Shi Hua, Shi Lu, Guan Ping six young generals, in addition, in terms of generals, I want to be assisted by General Koji!" ”

Zhang Fei stopped doing it when he heard this, and shouted, "Boguang, why do you look down on me?" Why did you call Lao Koji but not me? "He has cooperated with Tian Fan and fought, and he knows the benefits of being with Tian Fan, so he naturally wants to follow him all the way.

Lu Bu didn't speak, but the threat in his eyes was very strong.

Tian Fan smiled and said, "Yide, I think so!" The lord attacked Shouchun, according to the method of besieging three and missing one, three main generals were needed to besiege the city, and one main general was also needed to preside over the camp. Therefore, the lord needs at least four generals here. Uncle Zhi wants to guard Xiquyang, which will be the granary of the lord here in the future. Zilong wants to fight Liyang, and he can't get out. The rest of you, Fengxian, Yunchang, Yide, Zhengqing, the four of you are capable and prestigious, and you are brave and brave to crown the whole army, which is just right. …,
