Early the next morning, Lin Wen donated all the money and food on the island for the construction of a dockyard, and there were traps on the island for the development of warships, which was just right for secrecy work.

After everything was arranged, he came to the lobby, but saw Liu Xian bring Zhou Budo's mother and son, and thanked Liu Qi again for saving his life.

Liu Qi said with a smile: "Don't say don't be an official in the court, I should save me, even if the ordinary people of Jingzhou are in danger, they will never allow bullies to bully." ”

Liu Xian said to Xu Shu: "This time, the Duomeng military division personally went into danger and turned between the two islands to save his mother and son from difficulties. The grace of saving my life, I can't repay it, I want to order my nephew to worship the military teacher as his father-in-law, if I can hear the face of life, it is the luck of the boy, I don't know what the military teacher wants. ”

Zhou Budo hugged his fists and said: "The student has long admired the name of the military teacher, even if he does not want to accept him as a righteous son, if he can listen to the training in the morning and evening, he will know enough, and the grace of saving his life will be reported later." ”

Xu Shu was very fond of this astute child, stepped forward to touch his head, and said with a smile: "It's not that I don't want to accept him, there is really an old mother in the hall, and I don't dare to make my own decisions. ”

Liu Xian knew that Xu Shu was filial to his mother, and thought that he had never been married so far, otherwise his heart moved, and he nodded: "That's fine, when I get to Xiangyang, I should take the kid to visit the old man in person." ”

After breakfast, everyone parted ways, Liu Qi also had to inspect Changsha County, Liu Xian and Xu Shu returned to Xiangyang, and now the new policy is being implemented, and many things need to be dealt with urgently.

originally wanted Gan Ning to stay in Dongting, but Gan Ning was not at ease to go to Guiyang alone, and insisted on following, so he had to hand over the affairs of the navy to Guo Youzhi and Dong Ju to deal with.

Escorted by Yang Ling with troops, he came to Changsha smoothly, and Han Xuan, the Taishou guard, personally greeted him, and saw that Liu Qi was completely like a different person than when he left Xiangyang, and it seemed that he could defeat Cao Cao, which was no accident.

After Liu Biao pacified the Zhangjin Rebellion, he appointed Han Xuan to Changsha to take office, and in the past two years, he has governed the county, and the people are not bad, not as irritable as in the romance, and he is a decent official.

At this time, there was no Huang Zhong and Wei Yan in Changsha, and only one Yang Ling was a lieutenant to train troops, and his strength was far inferior to that of Liu Bei's southern expedition, and even became the weakest among the four counties.

The city has already prepared a banquet, and after three rounds of drinking, Liu Qi said directly: "Eastern Wu has coveted Jingzhou for a long time, Zhou Yu is training troops in Chaisang, intending to seek Jiangxia, I have ordered Guan Yunchang to guard the town, and it can be guaranteed." Zhou Yu does not succeed in taking Jiangxia, he will come to attack Jingnan, Changsha is the birthplace of the Sun family, Sun Jian has a lot of prestige here, I am afraid that Ming Gong will not be able to suppress the territory, I want to send another general to guard Changsha, and I hope that Ming Gong will not mind. ”

Han Xuan hugged his fists and said: "Where did the general say, when Liu Mu ordered me to serve in Changsha, I was sincerely afraid, fortunately with the help of General Liu Pan, I dared to take office, but I didn't expect him to be impeached by Cai Mao, and I have been worried about this matter recently." Changsha is an important town in Jingnan, connecting the borders of Eastern Wu, and it is time to send capable people to live in it, and the lower officials are willing to let the virtuous"

Liu Qi raised his glass and smiled: "Ming Gong is well aware of righteousness, which is really the luck of Jingzhou. I want to merge and manage the four counties of Jingnan, just like a state affair, and ask Ming Gong to take up the post of other driver, supervise and inspect the four counties, and comfort the people, I don't know what to do with Ming Gong's will? ”

Han Xuan hugged his fists and said: "It is the luck of the subordinate to be able to share the worries of the general." ”

The four counties were managed separately, and Han Xuan, the governor of the four counties, seemed to be relieved of the post of Changsha Taishou, but in fact he had more power, and the trace of unhappiness in his heart disappeared.

As for the best candidate for Changsha Taishou, Liu Qi had already planned to supervise the land of the four counties, and it was none other than Deng Zhi.

As a general in the late Shu Han period, Deng Zhi guarded Jingnan, guarded against Eastern Wu, and helped build a naval army, and his ability was sufficient to compete.

In addition, the generals have Yang Ling and Wu Ju, and then Huo Jun is transferred to come, plus Ganning's navy is in Dongting Lake, which can keep Changsha safe.

After the dismissal, Liu Qi discussed with Han Xuan and others: "Guiyang is too guarded by Zhao Fan, he once had a secret collusion with Zhang Jin, fortunately he was able to rein in the precipice, and he never made a big mistake. ”

Han Xuanyan said: "Zhao Fan is a native of Hebei, since he came to Guiyang, he rarely has contact with the outside world, and his two brothers have close contacts with Jiaozhou, since the death of his brother, he recruited troops to defend himself, and now there are 30,000 soldiers and horses, two generals. ”

Liu Qi smiled: "General? I heard that these two people are from Orion, how can they lead the army? ”

Han Xuanyan said: "Although these two are hunters, they are strong in martial arts, Chen Yingshan is good at flying forks, and Bao Long once shot double tigers, known as Guiyang Shuangbi, and cannot be underestimated." ”

Seeing that Zhao Fan's subordinates were still these two people, Liu Qi was a lot more relieved, and asked again: "If I go to Guiyang this time, what does Ming Gong think is auspicious?" ”

"This ...... Forgive the officials for not daring to make inferences! Han Xuan hugged his fists and said: "Why didn't the general invite Zhao Fan to come to Changsha to meet, if this person has bad intentions, he will not dare to come, if he comes, he will be at the disposal of the general, wouldn't it kill two birds with one stone?" ”

Liu Qi waved his hand and said with a smile: "I am inspecting Jingnan this time, with the intention of convincing people with virtue, everyone is an official in Jingzhou, why do you fight each other with swords?" It is not necessary to kill innocents indiscriminately unless it is absolutely necessary. ”

"If the general is brave enough to overtake others, he will be able to convince Zhao Fan." Han Xuan couldn't imagine that Liu Qi seemed to be weak, but he had such a bearing, which was even better than when Liu Biao entered Jingzhou alone.

Liu Qi asked some more about Guiyang's situation, which was basically no different from history, he was accompanied by Huang Zhong and Gan Ning, and his strength was stronger than when Zhao Yun took Guiyang, and it was more than enough to deal with Chen Ying.

The most important thing is to replace Liu Biao by himself, that is the justifiable Jingzhou Mu, Zhao Fan has no reason to send troops for no reason, and he will only bring defeat to himself.

Before leaving, Liu Qi had asked Zhao Ling'er to write a secret letter to stabilize Zhao Fan, telling him that Liu Qi did not know about Cao Cao, and as long as he did not send troops, he would not have to worry about his life.

As long as he successfully enters Guiyang to control Zhao Fan, everything will be easy, Zhao Fan can demote Liu Bei, let alone Liu Qi?

After understanding the situation in Guiyang, Liu Qi ordered Yang Ling to stay in Changsha, if Zhao Fan dared to raise troops in Guiyang, he would lead Changsha soldiers and horses to go to the expedition, and Pang Tong persuaded Liu Du and his son that there was only one Guiyang, and they couldn't make much waves.

The next day, he left Changsha, went straight to Guiyang with 500 guards, and went south out of Changsha to Jiuzhi Mountain, which was a remote place in the border during the Han Dynasty.

After crossing the mountains and mountains, we came to Guiyang in a short time, it was the middle of July, the weather in the south was hot and humid, and the people and horses walked more slowly.

In ancient times, the traffic was inconvenient, and the travel relied on two legs, and along the way, Liu Qi really felt the profound meaning of the four words "Carriage and Horse", and his buttocks and two legs were numb, and he felt that he was not his own.

This is only in the territory of Jingnan, and if you think about going out to the desert and going to the Western Regions, your scalp will be numb for a while, and it seems that you need to exercise more.

When I finally arrived at the territory of Guiyang, I saw a team of people waiting on the avenue from a distance.

The flags fluttered, the colorful clothes and gongs and drums, it didn't seem like he was going to do it, Liu Qi secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

In this case, the other party can really serve them in one pot, and ten Gan Ning can't stop it!
