Chapter 261: Count it out, take Jiangxia lightly
Huang Zu, in the water village.
At this moment, the sergeant of Shuizhai was bragging in a group.
"Brothers, have you heard, our boss has secretly taken refuge in the Chu army, and it is said that he wants to trick Zhang Yun so that he can have a future."
"Really? Listen to whom? Is it reliable? A crowd of people gathered around in an instant.
"I tell you, don't tell me. It was my sister-in-law's cousin's wife's brother who told me that he was guarding the camp for the general, can this kind of thing be fake? ”
The soldier said that he had a nose and an eye.
Immediately afterward, the word spread in the barracks.
"Did you hear, the boss wants to sell Zhang Yun and prepare to surrender Chu Feng, what my brother said!"
"Did you hear about it, Zhang Yun won't live long, let's go beat him immediately, there is someone above me!"
"Have you heard, we are already the Chu army, and the boss has surrendered, don't tell me about this."
For a time, there was a lot of rumor in the camp.
The key is that this is not only rumored within Huang Zuying, but also in Zhang Yunying, all kinds of gossip are all rumors that have been bought.
"General, the general is in trouble!"
The deputy general came in a hurry, looked at Huang Zu and shouted.
"What's so in such a hurry?" Huang Zu was looking at the planned water area in front of him, and he didn't raise his head to ask.
"General, rumors are spreading in the camp, saying that you have secretly defected to Chu Feng, and this joint operation is to harm Zhang Yun and fight for the future."
The adjutant general was anxious and said in a deep voice.
"Secretly cast Chu Feng? Damn it, it's a bunch of nonsense. Huang Zu raised his head indignantly, a little annoyed: "Hmph, this is obviously a rumor deliberately spread by the enemy army!" ”
"In this way, go to the camp immediately, let people strictly investigate the rumors, and arrange for someone to go to Zhang Yun's side to investigate the situation, and if the same is true over there, explain it."
Huang Zu hurriedly said.
"No!" The adjutant nodded,
Then he hesitated and said in a deep voice: "General, the last general doesn't know whether to say a word or not!" ”
"Say!" Huang Zu waved his hand.
"General, we and Zhang Yun are not all the way, and this joint operation is also to expel the Chu army, but now that rumors are spreading, what if Zhang Yun doesn't believe us?"
"When the time comes, our army will attack head-on, but he chooses to watch the flowers on the wall, isn't it disregarding our army's brothers?" The adjutant general said with some hesitation.
As soon as these words came out, Huang Zu fell silent.
What he said is indeed reasonable, although he did not defect to the Chu army, but will Zhang Yun believe him? Once you don't believe him, won't tomorrow's joint operation become his lonely army seeking death?
"What do you think?" Huang Zu looked at the lieutenant general.
"General, the last general has the audacity to speak out. Although Liu Biao treats us well, Liu Biao is old after all, and with Cai Maoliang's checks and balances, it is difficult to achieve great things. ”
"On the other hand, Chu Feng, who was born in a famous family, is expected by everyone, and he himself is resourceful, and there are countless elite soldiers and strong generals under his command, Liu Biao is definitely not an opponent."
"What's more, now that Shaxian is occupied, all the brothers' families are in Shaxian, although they haven't said anything, they don't want things to develop to that point."
"Isn't it just for the sake of the family, the last general thinks that it is better to push the boat down the river and vote for Chu Feng." When the adjutant general said this, he bowed his head and said,
He has spoken the words of countless people's hearts,
More than half of the family members in the army are in Shaxian, and now that Shaxian is gone, they have long had no intention of fighting.
Huang Zu frowned slightly: "Brothers think so?" ”
"I don't know what others think, but those brothers under me want to go back and reunite with their families, if I hadn't pressed them, I'm afraid they would have mutinied a long time ago."
"General, to be honest, Liu Biao will die, why bother to die for him?" The adjutant general said with tears in his eyes.
Huang Zu fell silent and didn't speak for a long time, but after thinking about his family in the city, his heart was also soft, maybe this person was right, surrender is the best choice.
But thinking of Liu Biao again, he fell into deep thought: "Go, send someone to contact Zhang Yun, see what Zhang Yun is saying, if he really doesn't trust, then vote!" ”
"No!" The lieutenant nodded.
————
For a long time, Zhang Yunshui was on the ship.
After listening to the general's words, Zhang Yun slapped the table angrily and said violently: "This Huang Zu even wants to take credit for my head, it's just wishful thinking!" ”
"General, could this be the Chu army's divisive plan? Although Huang Zu is stupid, but such a secret will not be suddenly leaked, I am afraid that it is a good thing done by Chu Jun. ”
Another general said solemnly.
"What you said is not impossible, but Huang Zu is Liu Biao's person after all, Liu Biao has always hoped that the Cai family's power will be weakened, and the heart of harming people is indispensable, but the heart of preventing people is indispensable."
"In this case, immediately send someone to find out for me and see what the situation is." Zhang Yun was a little worried, but he was afraid of falling for the Chu army's strategy.
"No!" The general nodded.
But just as the generals were about to retreat, a hurried shout sounded: "Report~, General Qiyu, I found that the Chu army was gathering in large numbers in the distance!" ”
"What do you say? The warships of the Chu army have been assembled? How many ships? Zhang Yun's expression tightened, his face was not good, and he instantly pointed the finger at Huang Zu,
"I'm afraid there are more than a thousand warships, several iron-clad warships, oh yes, there are two building ships with yellow flags, it is very likely that they are Huang Zu's!" The scout hurriedly answered.
"Damn, I knew that it must have been a good thing done by Huang Zu, knowing that the matter was exposed, and he united with the Chu army in advance to make a move on our army, but fortunately, our army investigated in time."
Zhang Yun said with almost certainty.
"General, what should we do now?" A group of generals also looked solemn, obviously thinking that the sudden assembly of the Chu army was related to Huang Zu.
Otherwise, why did the Chu army suddenly gather so many soldiers and horses? Eighty percent of the real things have been leaked, and we have to do it in advance.
"Huang Zu betrayed Chu Feng, I can't blame me for this matter, in this way, I ordered the whole army to prepare to pull the anchor and withdraw to Xiangyang, and then it will be said that Huang Zu surrendered to Chu Feng!"
Zhang Yun thought quickly and said in a deep voice.
This may be the best way, a remnant party that can eradicate Liu Biao, although Jiangxia can't take it back, but Huang Zu is gone, Liu Biao is a toothless tiger.
"General, but what if Huang Zu didn't take refuge?" Someone asked curiously.
"Hmph, the evidence is ironclad at present, but even if he really doesn't take refuge, then I say that he has taken refuge." Zhang Yun said coldly.
At the moment, he is not ruthless, and he will die another day.
"Report~, General Qiyu, Huang Zu sent someone to ask for a meeting!" Someone is coming to report it again!
"Damn, at this time, you still dare to send someone, someone, to cut off the head of the messenger for me and send it back." Zhang Yun is not used to it, he doesn't dare to bet.
He has a bad relationship with Zhang Yun, so there is no need to base his safety on trusting him.
"No!" The general immediately responded.
And it didn't take long for Zhang Yunji's soldiers and horses to begin to retreat in a mighty manner, and the 20,000 soldiers and horses came and went in a hurry, and the withdrawal may be faster.
However, this retreat, he has to be stationed in Jingling, otherwise the Chu army will be able to go straight to Xiangyang City!
On the river,
Chu Feng stood at the bow of the boat, the autumn wind blew his robe, but he looked indifferent, but Zhao Fan, Gan Ning and the others next to him laughed heartily, looking at Zhang Yun who fled in the wilderness, they couldn't stop laughing.
At the same time, they admired Chu Feng even more,
Hit the pain points of the two directly, which led to mutual distrust between the two, after all, Zhang Yun was even more convinced, and it can be said that the soldiers resolved this battle to the death without blood.
Gan Ning was the most ashamed, as the main general of the boat master, he guessed that they were going to attack, but he could only think of fighting hard, sure enough, he was still far from Chu Feng's level!
"The lord has a small disagreement and plans to defeat tens of thousands of enemy troops, and this move will definitely go down in history and be admired by future generations." Zhao Fan sighed.
They scratched their ears and cheeks and had nothing to do, and Chu Feng was very simple to resolve it.
"Less sycophants!" Chu Feng rolled his eyes.
"Lord, what shall we do now?" Zhao Yun asked.
"Prepare to wait for Huang Zu to surrender!" Chu Feng turned around and said.
"Waiting for him to vote? Don't you send someone to contact you? Gan Ning asked.
"Hehe, if it was needed before, but now that Zhang Yun is back, Huang Zu will have no place to stand, he can only surrender, and his subordinates and their families are also in Shaxian."
"In that case, let's raise the stance. By the way, I heard that the Huang family collected a lot of grain, grass, gold and silver, so they arranged for someone to confiscate 200,000 stones into the warehouse. ”
"Half of the gold and silver will be left for military expenses." Chu Feng chuckled, at this moment he was like a miser, counting other people's money cleanly.
"Remember, be quick, when he surrenders, it's not good for my reputation!" Chu Feng coughed lightly, his eyes obviously signaling Zhao Fan to hurry up.
The corners of the general's mouth twitched,
Tsk, my boss is different,
But does your boss still have a reputation?
"The last general understands, and the mission is guaranteed to be completed!" Zhao Fan nodded.

At dusk, Huangzu Water Village.
After waiting for a few hours, Huang Zu was already a little haggard, and he was caught off guard by this divisive plan, and the people sent to Zhang Yun's side had not yet returned.
Calculate the time, it's time to come back!
"Report~, Lord Qi, Zhang Yun sent someone back to the head of our army's envoy, and it is also reported that Zhang Yun has taken people to withdraw, obviously to us..."
The doorman will say this, bowing his head and being silent.
"Damn, it's too much of a deception, just be suspicious, and be so sure that you beheaded the envoy of our army!" Huang Zu roared angrily.
"General, I know that Zhang Yun's kid is unreliable, whether it is a discord plan or not, that Zhang Yun is not a good thing, if it weren't for his mind,"
"When the time comes, our army will fight alone, and I am afraid that the last person in the battle will not be able to wait for Zhang Yun's reinforcements!" Aribu General cursed firmly.
"General, Zhang Yun withdraws, he will definitely tell the envoy as soon as he returns to the army, and when the time comes, our army will be even more inarticulate, so it is better to return to Chu Feng as soon as possible."
The lieutenant general clenched his fists and suggested.
"We second!" All the generals spoke in unison.
"Hey, after today, early tomorrow morning, arrange for someone to contact the Chu army and arrange the surrender affairs." Huang Zu's whole person lost a little momentum,
It's as if you've been drained of your spirits.
"No!" The generals were both sorry and excited.
Chu Feng is in full swing, and it is definitely better to be with Chu Feng than with Huang Zu, not to mention that he can be reunited with his family, this is the most important thing.
"Alright, let's all go down, let me be alone!" Huang Zu sighed, thinking that he was still a prince before, but in just a few dozen days, it was gone.
But it's good that a lot of people have survived, and it's not a sin.
"No!" The generals clenched their fists and left.
————
Jian'an for four years,
Autumn, mid to late September.
Chu Feng used a divisive strategy to successfully make Zhang Yun and Huang Zu turn their faces, so Zhang Yun withdrew his troops to the north, and Huang Zu led his troops to surrender, including his fifteen-thousand-boat division.
The westward march was not long, but it achieved unprecedented success in Jiangxia, and was surrendered by 10,000 foot soldiers under the command of Huang Zu and more than 16,000 boat divisions, which can be called a complete victory.
At the same time, Chu Feng took the rights and interests of the general to open the mansion, named Huang Zu as the general of Yingyang, temporarily replaced the post of Jiangxia Taishou, and went to the court to ask Huang Zu to be the Marquis of Luotian Pavilion.
At this point, Jingzhou Chufeng gnawed the first piece, Jiangxia County, and this piece will be used as a springboard to spy on the whole of Jingzhou.
Go west along the Yangtze River, you can enter Dongting Lake, enter the boundary of Changsha in Jingnan, and fight with Shaxian, and go westward, you can go straight to Jiangling City, which is the hinterland of Nan County.
Only when you have Jiangling can you occupy Jingzhou.
At that time, Liu Bei borrowed Jingzhou and not the whole territory of Jingzhou, and many people didn't know why, thinking how much they borrowed, but in fact, they only borrowed most of the southern county.
Sun Wu's purpose was to let Liu Bei share the pressure on the Western Front and resist Cao together, but Liu Bei's purpose was to enter Yizhou, where he fooled Sun Quan.
Later, Liu Bei took Yizhou, and Sun Quan asked for the three counties of Jingnan, but Liu Bei did not give it.
For this reason, Sun Quan directly sent Lu Meng to forcibly take the three counties of Jingnan, and here, Liu Bei was also very angry, and directly led people to copy the guy from Yizhou to kill, so he had to fight with Sun Quan.
In the end, if it weren't for the battle of Hanzhong, Liu Bei and Sun Quan would probably have to fight at this time, and Sun Quan was also worried about this later, so he directly agreed with Lu Meng's point of view and killed Guan Yu.
Here, the most important thing is that the Lord and Pai Lu Su are dead, otherwise Lu Su will definitely not agree to be Guan Yu, and they will accept Nanjun to contend with Cao Wei.
But Lu Meng is the main battle faction,
In addition, Guan Yu flooded the Seventh Army, shocked Huaxia, and the limelight was too big, Sun Quanneng was not afraid, so he united with Cao Wei to form a short-term alliance between Cao Wei and Sun Wu, just to kill Guan Yu.
There is nothing wrong with it, the fault is that Guan Yu was too strong in the early stage.
Sun Quan was not to attack Wei, otherwise when Guan Yu went north, he would not send people to attack and attack Hefei in an all-round way, maybe he could break the blockade.
Of course, that's all for later.
And the Chu army won Jiangxia in the first battle, which shook the world, attracted the attention of countless heroes, and the princes were worried, especially Cao Cao in the Central Plains and Yuan Shao in Hebei.
Both of them were eager to end the fighting.
As for the people of the world, they are concerned about whether Chu Feng really has to take the entire Jingzhou, if this is the case, then the world will really be a three-legged stand.
Yuan Shao of Hebei, Cao Cao of the Central Plains, Chu Feng of Jiangnan.
At present, the territory of Yuan Shao in Hebei and Cao Cao in the Central Plains have been completed, and each occupies the territory of three and a half states, and it is up to Chu Feng to take Jingzhou, all of which are based on the Yangtze River Basin.
If Chu Feng takes Jingzhou, the territory will be close to the three states at that time, and the area will be even greater than the two, and in terms of population, I am afraid that Chu Feng will be even worse, and the most uncomfortable person at that time will be Cao Cao.
Of course, the premise is that Chu Feng can successfully take Jingzhou.
Otherwise, with Chu Feng's current territory of more than one state, the foundation is still unstable.
And right now, the most frightened person is Liu Biao!
