Under the appointment of Li Xiong, Situ Li Yun, Sikong Li Huang, and Dazai Li Guo led 28,000 horse cavalry and stationed in Shangyong to resist Yao Bao's division.

On the Jiangzhou side, it was Li Xiong who led Taifu, that is, his uncle Li Xiang, his brother Taibao Li Shi, and Taiwei Li Li to command the 80,000 main forces, and came to Jiangzhou one step ahead of schedule to resist Yao Yu.

There is a saying that Li Xiong sits on the land of a state, and the total number of people with household registration does not exceed one million, and most of the people are under the hands of wealthy nobles.

These shaders will not provide soldiers and taxes.

In addition to the defenders from all over the country, Li Xiongneng forcibly transferred nearly 100,000 mobile troops out of the more than one million people who could be driven, which was tantamount to killing chickens and taking eggs.

Even, Yao Yu didn't have to waste much effort, he only needed to spend it with Li Xiong, then Li Xiong himself couldn't support it first.

Li Xiong was naturally clear about his situation, but he didn't dare to take risks.

Without him, the main reason is that the first war eight years ago gave Li Xiong a psychological shadow.

The 70,000 main force was shattered by Yao Yu at once, and if he casually recruited some soldiers and horses to confront Yao Yu, he really didn't have this confidence.

No, as the son of Dacheng, he was forced to drive in person.

If not, I am afraid that none of the generals under his command will be Yao Yu's opponent.

Even if Li Xiong drove the expedition in person, he was not completely sure about Yao Yu.

No, when Yao Yu's soldiers and horses arrived outside Jiangzhou City, he sent the prime minister's son, Shang Shulang Fan Ben, to negotiate in Yao Yu's camp.

In the camp outside Jiangzhou, Yao Yucai set up camp, and Fan Ben arrived in the army as a messenger.

When he saw Yao Yujun's neat appearance, he couldn't help but feel a little afraid in his heart.

Fortunately, it was his father who overrode public opinion and suppressed the idea of Li Xiang and these clansmen to take advantage of Yao Yu to come from afar and raid Yao Yu.

Otherwise, with Yao Yu's preparation, as many people from his side come, as many people as he comes, he will have to throw them here.

"Messenger Fan Ben has come to see you."

Just when Fan Ben was in a daze, He Xiong walked out of the Zhongjun tent and opened his mouth and said loudly.

Hearing this, Fan Ben shook his head, tidied up his clothes, and looked forward with a calm face.

Under the leadership of He Xiong, Fan Ben slowly walked into the Chinese military tent.

When he came in, Yao Yu was pointing and talking to Shen Lin, Lian Jun, Kong Xiao, Sun Yi, Wen Xu and other civil and military generals around a square wooden box.

Fan Ben didn't know the wooden box either, only that it contained a lot of mountains and ravines piled up of dirt.

It looks like a topographic map of the generation near Jiangzhou.

Seeing this scene, Fan Ben blinked a little sluggishly.

Just when he was in a daze, Wang Xuance shouted: "Bold Fan Ben, why don't you kneel when you see my family?"

Fan Ben reacted at this time, he also had backbone, and said with a stiff neck: "The envoy of the upper state, do not worship the ministers of the lower country."

Wang Xuance sneered: "Even if you dare to say that you are a kingdom? It's just a gang of bandits who entertain themselves. Do you really think you're the emperor?"

Fan Ben ignored Wang Xuance, but looked at Yao Yu beyond everyone's eyes: "Lord Yao, is this your hospitality?"

Yao Yu waved his hand and motioned for Wang Xuance not to speak, and then his gaze fell on Fan Ben and looked back and forth.

The latter's expression was calm, without any fear, but faced Yao Yu directly.

"You're still quite bold enough to really dare to come to me. Aren't you afraid, I'll kill you?"

The corners of Fan Ben's mouth twitched: "The two armies are fighting, and they will not be killed. The public name covers the whole world, and I don't think I will do such a thing that the world laughs at."

Yao Yu laughed: "Yes, there is something more than last time, and you know how to use words to prevaricate me. But I think you're getting one thing wrong."

Fan Ben paused for a moment.

Yao Yu snorted coldly, and looked at Fan Ben with pity: "I want to do things, and I never care what others think of me. What the world laughs at? Is it important for me? The important thing is that I hate the way you speak. Come, hold on, and give me twenty spine battles first."

Fan Ben was dumbfounded: "I, I'm visiting as a messenger, you, you can't beat me."

"Hit you? It's all good that I didn't kill you. What are you doing in a daze, drag me out."

Wang Xuance agreed, called Haole, stepped forward, and grabbed Fan Ben's arm without saying a word.

The latter was still panicking: "No, no, I, I still have something to say."

Wang Xuance slapped a fist on Fan Ben's face: "If you have anything to say, you won't say anything until you are beaten." Don't be embarrassed."

Fan Ben was beaten with blood from his mouth and nose, and wanted to speak, but he was already in tears, and let Wang Xuance pull him out of the tent.

After a burst of crackling and beating, even Fan Ben was wearing cotton clothes, he grinned in pain, and he almost died of pain.

But don't say it, this is a beating, he is much more honest.

No, when you come in again, you don't need anyone to say, Fan Ben knelt down at Yao Yu with a pout: "Here, under Fan Ben, I have seen Lord Sima Yao."

Yao Yu nodded with satisfaction: "That's right. Anyway, why are you here?"

Fan Ben bared his teeth and gasped with a hissing sigh in his mouth: "Great Sima Mingjian, I came on the orders of the Son of Heaven of my family to ask what the purpose of Great Sima's trip is?" You and I, although there were some misunderstandings and contradictions before. But in the past eight years, there has not been a single clash between the two sides. How could Da Sima break the peace and send troops to Yizhou?"

Yao Yu didn't speak, just looked at Fan Ben with an expression that seemed to be smiling but not smiling.

The latter may also feel that what he said is a bit unreasonable.

No, he stubbornly continued: "Da Sima, you think you love the people like a son. But have you ever wondered how many people will be killed when the war starts? Is this what you've always adhered to?"

Yao Yu asked Fan Ben rhetorically, "Are you finished?"

Fan Ben nodded.

Yao Yu stretched out his finger and said, "I know what you mean, it's just that I feel that my dispatch of troops has put too much pressure on you. None of your troops have the confidence to be able to hold back this attack from me. Don't refute, if I'm wrong, you won't be in my Chinese military account. Am I right?"

Fan Ben was dumbfounded, lowered his head and said nothing, obviously, he acquiesced in what Yao Yu said.

At the same time, he also regretted a little, regretting that he should not have sent Yao Yu.

regretted even more that his father did not persuade Li Xiong to let him come as an envoy.

It's okay now, I didn't do anything, and I exposed my confidence first.

Against an old fox like Yao Yu, if you show him timidity first, can you still fight him in the future?

Seeing that Fan Ben didn't refute, Yao Yu continued: "Second, you and my family don't have any alliance, in troubled times, it is natural for you to beat me and I beat you. Besides, as an orthodox court, shouldn't I beat you?"
