At the end of the Han Dynasty, Jingnan experienced a plague catastrophe, and the population of each county was greatly reduced after the disaster, and the population of Guiyang was the last of the four counties, and the military strength was also the last of the four counties.

Sun Quan could attack from Lingling and Nanhai, and Guiyang would inevitably fall without reinforcements.

Once Sun Quan annexed Guiyang, it was connected with Yuzhang and Luling.

At that time, Sun Quan will master the complex terrain of Lingnan, and he can use the terrain to divide himself and become a more difficult bone to gnaw.

The so-called rescue of soldiers is like fighting fire, Long Xiang couldn't wait for Liu Bei's reply, and planned to send troops to Guiyang immediately.

On the one hand, he ordered the army to assemble in Niuzhu, and on the other hand, he sent people to Wu County to invite Lu Su to come and see him.

Lu Su spent most of his time away last year, so he took advantage of the fact that there was no war in Jingzhou and Yangzhou to accompany his family who had been neglected for a long time, but as soon as he received Long Xiang's call, he immediately left Wenrou Township.

On the way to Moling, Lu Su guessed that there was a military operation, and thought that Guan Yu needed him, but it turned out that Guiyang asked for help.

"The counties have just undergone adjustments, and Yunqi has to stay in Yangzhou to stabilize the balance at this time, or will I lead the naval army to the rescue?"

"The imperial court asked me to supervise Jingnan, if Zijing goes to the wrong name, or you come to Yangzhou for me, I have already explained to Zhang Gong and Yuan Si, and they will assist you."

"But this."

Lu Su still wanted to argue, but was interrupted by Long Xiang.

"The military situation is urgent, we don't have time to discuss, I will take half of the sailors, half of the foot cavalry, and the remaining half of the training must not be wasted, we have formed a mortal enmity with the Cao thief, and we may enter the war at any time."

"Well, Yunqi rest assured."

Lu Su gave a guarantee.

Seeing this, Long Xiang patted him on the shoulder, and the unfinished words were all in his words, and then turned around and left with Xu Chu.

But before he took two or three steps, Lu Su's shout came from behind.

"Yunqi, wait a minute."

"Huh? Anything else? ”

When Long Xiang turned to look back, Lu Su trotted forward and reminded him seriously: "Before I stayed in Xiangyang, Ziyang once said that there is a Zhonglang general named Huang Zhong in Changsha. ”

"Huang Zhong? No problem. ”

Long Xiangxin said that Huang Zhong is one of the five tigers, I don't need you to say that I will also boldly use it, since Uncle Liu Huang has no chance to excavate, then I will dig this piece of gold for you.

Seeing that Long Xiang's response was perfunctory, and he had no experience in commanding a naval army, Lu Su couldn't help but remind again:

"Yunqi, the Jingnan River is crisscrossed, if you are not used to water warfare, you can learn to use a boat to travel when raiding Xudu, don't be careless and be taken by the other party, then we will be passive."

"Hahaha"

Long Xiang shook his head and laughed a few times, suddenly reached out to help Lu Su tidy up his neckline, and then patted him lightly on the chest, and comforted him with a smile: "Zijing is afraid that I will act as a transport captain for the enemy like Mao Jue and Cai Mao?" You can rest assured of this, this time I took Lu Boyan on the expedition, he is a meticulous person, if he encounters a division of troops to fight, he will let him command the warship. ”

"Lu Boyan? This man can be of great use."

Lu Su sighed and looked up again, Long Xiang had already left with Xu Chu quickly.

A few days later, the Yangzhou fleet traveled to Xiakou, and the new Taishou Lu Dai went out of the city to work the army.

After some exchanges, Long Xiang finally understood why Sun Quan took the initiative.

On the one hand, Sun Quan was revenge for Jiang Xia's loss of control, and on the other hand, due to the re-action of Guan Yu's army.

Cao Ren retreated to Wancheng and couldn't hold out, Guan Yu couldn't find the weakness and tore the opening, so he kept resting and looking for opportunities.

Later, Guan Yu, at the suggestion of Pang Tong, made a big effort to recover the area south of Bishui and east of Hanshui, and directly blocked the passage of Runan support.

Taking the southeast of Nanyang, Guan Yu did not stop his action, he ordered Gan Ning to take the warship to stop in Shuishui, and ordered Wei Yan to lead the elite cavalry to harass Bowang and block the front line of Yang.

In the counties of Nanyang guarded by Cao Ren, most of the people were plundered by Guan Yu before, and now the ordinary people are not as many as Cao's army, they can't afford to support the front-line army, and all the supplies have to be transported from the Central Plains.

Guan Yu sent Wei Yan to harass the grain road, which was to block Cao Ren and Cao Cao.

If you can't defend it, you will be in danger of breaking the cooking, and if you take the initiative to attack, you will be suppressed by the vision, in short, how to fight is not cost-effective.

Wei Yanjing rode less than 10,000 people, but every 100 people were equipped with clairvoyant mirrors, and his observation ability was stronger than last year, and the more Cao Ren fought, the more aggrieved he felt.

He is the ancestor of playing cavalry, how did he end up being suppressed by Guan Yu?

No wonder during the Chinese New Year, Guan Yu sent people to Yangzhou to ask for a large number of clairvoyant mirrors, it turned out to be this one?

Combined with Sun Kuang's previous confession, it must be that Cao Cao and Sun Quan reached a tacit understanding.

Attacking Guiyang can be regarded as taking advantage of the fire to rob, and it can also be regarded as containing Cao's army.

What a great Wei Wu King.

Liu Bei and Guan Yu have countless think tanks behind them, how can they let Cao Cao and Sun Quan get their wish?

During his short stay in Xiakou, Long Xiang also inquired about Cheng Pu's situation.

Cheng Pu did not return to Jiangdong after leaving the wilderness, nor did he secretly go to Sun Quan, but took his family to live in seclusion in Xiling, perhaps really tired of war and intrigue.

After Lu Dai arrived in Jiangxia, he visited Xiling several times, but Cheng Pu was closed.

Cheng Pu has a lot of weight in the Sun Group, and if he can convince Izuyama to do things for Long Xiang, it will play an important role in defeating Sun Quan.

However, Guiyang was in urgent need of rescue, and Long Xiang didn't have time to 'look at the thatched house'.

Not long after the fleet left Xiakou, he was standing on the deck bathing in the warm sun, but suddenly his body trembled and he was inspired, so he ordered someone to prepare a pen and paper to write a letter.

Soon after Long Xiang returned to the cabin, he ordered someone to take a fast boat back to Wu with a book, and then walked onto the deck again.

Although Lu Xun did not accompany Long Xiang back to the cabin, when he saw that the other party was in a hurry, some conjectures rose in his heart.

"General Shicai wrote a book and sent it back to Wudi, could it be related to the Nanyang War?"

"Huh?"

Long Xiang smiled in surprise, nodded his head and said: "Bo Yan is really delicate, this letter is indeed related to General Guan, Sun Quan is in Jingnan for Cao Cao, I plan to let Zijing do something." ”

"Raid Xudu again?"

As soon as Lu Xun's words came out, he immediately vetoed himself: "No, Cao Cao must be on guard at this time, could it be Xuzhou?" ”

"Yes, yes."

"The Chen family and the general are related by marriage, I wonder if they can help each other secretly? If you can. It's doable. ”

"Haha, what do you say?"

Long Xiang smiled leisurely, and then added: "Yangzhou has been affected by the disaster, and there is a shortage of food, if there is no external funding, how can it be easy to send troops?" Zijing knows how to do it. ”

Lu Xun swallowed violently after hearing this, and only after a while did he clench his fists and remember the compliment.

"The general's strategy is far-reaching, and I can't do it"

"Hehe, don't be presumptuous, you can, I am convinced."

Long Xiang's words made Lu Xun puzzled, and said in his heart You can still understand yourself better than me?

Lu Xun didn't know that Long Xiang had a 'God perspective', and he really could.

In mid-April, when he arrived in Linxiang, Changsha, he learned that Dong's attack was like a bamboo to conquer Leiyang and Benxian, and he should have besieged Chenxian County, and Changsha had troops at this time.

Liu Pan died of an emergency, and Liu Biao was also terminally ill at that time, so the military power was too guarded by Han Xuan.

Han Xuan wanted to learn from the princes, but he couldn't control Liu Pan's arrogant soldiers, but he happened to encounter Liu Qi and Liu Cong fighting for power, so Han Xuan used the excuse that the situation was unclear and the two did not help each other.

Long Xiang came with the holy decree this time, and all the generals in Changsha were willing to obey the order, and Han Xuan's dream of being a prince was suddenly shattered.

After Huang Zhong and the others left, Xu Chu saw that there was no one around, so he stepped forward and asked curiously: "Although Huang Hansheng is in good spirits, he has white hair and hangs down old, this person's archery skills can be against General Taishi?" Can martial arts be comparable to Xu? Mr. Ziyang exaggerated, right? ”

"Haha, don't doubt Ziyang's vision, this old general Huang is really strong, you will know in a few days."

Long Xiang's confident smile made Xu Chu even more confused.
