Volume 1 Survival in Death Chapter 87 The power rises again
"Liu Ye, meet General Fan!"
A few days later, just as Jiang Gan was delaying Sun Ce and preparing to go to Shouchun to face Cao Mengde, who was heading south, he was in the camp of Niu Zhu on the other side.
Liu Ye also found Fan Neng, Zhang Ying and others who were frowning.
Looking at their faces full of bitterness, Liu Ye couldn't help but have a smile on his face.
I couldn't help but want to laugh out loud in my heart, as the general under Liu Xiang back then, Fan Neng and they were able to come to this point... Ay!
Thinking back then, they were also majestic under Liu Xuan, but now that Liu Xuan died of illness in his prime, Tai Shici, who was not reused, became the tip of Sun Ce's heart...
At this time, Fan Neng and the others looked at Liu Ye in front of them, and they couldn't help frowning.
"You.... You're the one who sent us a letter asking me to be on guard against this Niuzhu camp? ”
"It's down there!" Liu Ye chuckled, and then continued towards Fan Neng, "I don't know what the kid said in that letter before... Did you guess it? ”
At this time, Fan Neng and Zhang Ying glanced at each other, and they didn't know what they saw in each other's eyes, but when they looked at Liu Ye again, their eyes were a little weird.
"Liu Ziyang... I've heard your name too.
This time it's really thanks to your reminder, otherwise... I'm going to be passive! ”
Fan Neng spoke again and thanked Liu Ye for the same salute.
Seeing Fan Neng's attitude, the smile in Liu Ye's eyes became even more.
In fact, Liu Ye did not inform Liu Ye of everything, and he still concealed some things.
Like what... Liu Ye had already begun to plan Liu Xun a long time ago, and even in the battle of Liu Xie's capture of Anhui City, Liu Ye was also prepared.
Otherwise, how could you arrange everything so properly, so that Liu Xun would lose a lot of losses from the soldiers and horses of his headquarters.
In the end, he could only let him escape with the generals under Zheng Bao's command at the beginning, and in the end, he was picked by Liu Ye and suddenly became one of the important figures under Liu Xie?
Liu Ye is a wise man, there is no so-called master-slave distinction between him and Liu Xun, and his eyes have not been on Liu Xun's body, he has been waiting for a suitable master.
Liu Ye, who had already selected Cao Mengde, decisively turned his gaze to Chang'an again after seeing Liu Bei's series of actions.
And as the news grew, he also found more interesting things.
At the same time, Liu Xie's whim also allowed Liu Ye to find the most suitable opportunity to use the many thieves and soldiers in Wancheng and Jianghuai to become his own rank.
Only in this way can he, Liu Ye, quickly gain a firm foothold by Liu Xie's side and become an important arm of this big man Zhongxing!
What else, what is more satisfying than the Han royal family, this is the place where he really exerts his skills, and Liu Xie's current situation is the scene he dreamed of.
And for this moment, he made a lot of preparations in advance, helping Liu Xun to control Wancheng at a critical moment and delay Sun Ce's time.
When there was a stalemate in Anhui City, he sent a secret letter to Fan Neng and asked him to be careful that the Niuzhu camp would be attacked by Sun Ce.
At the same time, it was predicted that Wu Jing and Sun Ben, the two wall grasses, might attack them and so on.
With the help of Liu Ye, Fan Neng and others changed their soldiers and horses again, and blocked a sneak attack under Sun Ce's command.
This can be regarded as one of Liu Ye's preparations for himself, after all, in his opinion, they are aiming at this Fan Neng and others, and Sun Ce, who has subdued Tai Shici and others, will definitely not give up on them.
And Liu Ye also relied on the friendship of Mixin at this time, and successfully got in touch with Fan Neng, and persuaded them.
"All the generals were generals under Liu Yangzhou back then, and they have been at war with Sun Ce for many years, and the two sides have already formed a mortal enemy!
If the generals surrender to Sun Ce today, I am afraid that even if they can save their names, it will be difficult to lead the troops to battle in the future, which is probably not what the generals want!
Ye Jiuwen Although Sun Ce seems to be majestic and heroic, deep down he is quite jealous of people, and I think the generals are also jealous of this!
Today, Liu Ye is willing to find a way out for the generals, as long as the generals are willing, they can go to Chang'an with Ye to meet His Majesty.
At that time, Liu Yangzhou was also ordered by the imperial court to sit in Yangzhou, and now Liu Yangzhou unfortunately passed away, and you are also Han generals, now is a good time to return to the court! ”
Liu Ye's words have to be said to make Fan Neng and others excited, their lives have not been easy these years, in addition to Liu Xuan's death, there are also a large number of old surrenders.
This makes their situation even more delicate.
Tai Shici and others surrendered, and Wu Jing, Sun Ben and others are now fighting with them... You must know that they were the ones who welcomed Liu Miao into Yangzhou back then.
This situation makes Fan Neng and the others can only barely support it, if there is no Liu Ye, I am afraid that they have all become the ghosts of Sun Ce's guns now.
At this time, Liu Ye persuaded them again to return to the imperial court, and was willing to introduce them on their behalf... They were moved by these words, but they were still a little hesitant.
"When I heard that Mr. had a clever plan to kill Zheng Bao, there were also 10,000 people under his command, but he refused to lead the troops and handed over these soldiers and horses to Commander Liu Xun.
I don't know... Why does the gentleman have to do this today, and give me such assurances? ”
"Hahahaha..." Liu Ye also laughed directly after hearing these words, "The general doesn't know anything, and he doesn't know this time and that!"
At that time, Ye was reluctant to lead the troops because Ye was a member of the Han royal family, and if he led the troops without authorization, he was afraid that it would be inappropriate and not beneficial.
But now it is different, Ye has been put under His Majesty's command, so naturally he wants to lead the army for His Majesty, as long as His Majesty allows it, then Ye will naturally do everything! ”
Liu Ye's words are simply translated, that Lao Tzu didn't know who to go to at the beginning, and this identity plus the commander of the army may cut him off.
But now it's okay, it's normal for all of you to be in command of your own family, who does Your Majesty use without your own people?
Sure enough, Fan Neng and the others understood the meaning of Liu Ye's words, and after glancing at each other again, they also understood the truth.
"That being the case... I hope that Mr. can protect us in the future! ”
"As long as we serve Your Majesty, then naturally you and I are one!" Liu Ye also chuckled directly, "Since we have reached a consensus, it's time to say something serious!" ”
"Please give me my orders!"
Although Liu Yangzhou died, Liu Yangzhou's son Liu Ji was still stationed in Yuzhang County.
Ye has an edict here, which was left by His Majesty... Please ask the general to send someone to Yuzhang and recruit Liu Ji to come! ”
If you want to negotiate conditions with Sun Ce, you need not only Lujiang, but also Yuzhang County, which is not yet in his hands... Transfer Liu Ji and Yuzhang County Shouhuaxin, and they don't need to be responsible for the rest of the things.
At the same time, Ma Chao on the other side also began to act with soldiers and horses.
Ma Chao went all the way to the place where Chen Ce was, exterminating several large and small tributaries along the way, and the name of bravery slowly spread.
At this time, Ma Chao is no longer the fledgling kid who was almost stabbed to death by Yan Xing's spear, and with more and more fights on the battlefield, his Ma Chao's ability is getting bigger and bigger.
In the back, Chen Jiao took more than 2,000 soldiers and horses, and then played the flag and pretended to be an army of tens of thousands of people.
At the same time, Jia Xu also began to arrange some clever soldiers and horses to go to the area where Chen Ce was stationed and began to spread some news to tell Chen Ce about his current situation...
In this case, the fear in Chen Ce's heart became more and more serious, and finally after a short trial with Ma Chao, he knew that he was probably not the opponent of the other party.
Facing Luo Tong, a child who was less than ten years old, he walked out of the deep mountains with his soldiers and horses and chose to surrender...
Tens of thousands of people were merged into Lujiang, and Liu Xie immediately asked Ma Chao and Xu Huang to accept the soldiers and horses, and then after they were pacified, they also began to select a large number of elite soldiers and horses, and re-formed an elite team of 3,000 people.
Unconsciously, time passed little by little, and more than half of the four years of Jian'an, Cao Mengde finally completed the last march.
Under a series of operations, he successfully obtained the right to guard Shouchun from Chen Yu's hands, and retained Chen Yu's authority to assassinate Yangzhou.
At the same time, Chen Yu was left with enough soldiers and generals.
In addition, the two generals Cao Ren and Yu Ban sent troops directly from Huainan and quickly occupied Anfeng, Lu'an, Bo'an and many other cities north of the Yangtze River.
And Jiang Gan also successfully used the rights given to him by Liu Xie to canonize Cao Cao's general Zhu Ling as the county guard of Lujiang, so that Cao Cao had nominal control over Lujiang.
and gave Cao Cao the right to open the Yuzhou Mu, the Han Sikong, and the right to open the mansion.
In exchange for some of the grain and baggage in Cao Mengde's hands, Cao Mengde also confirmed the existence of Liu Xie, and the army of Chen Bing on the Yangtze River, if it weren't for the fact that his command was not good at water warfare, I am afraid that he would have crossed the river by now.
Directly attack the south of the Lujiang River.
And Jiang Gan, who returned to Anhui City, also immediately went to Sun Ce's camp again and told Sun Ce the news that Cao Mengde's troops were coming to the north of the Lujiang River.
Under this pressure, Sun Ce finally agreed to let go of Chaisang and supply hundreds of ships and hundreds of warships in exchange for the current Anhui City and most of Yuzhang County...
Of course, this does not include Sun Ce's desire to provide Liu Xie with a large amount of grain and grass, and the Lu family, who is not so good with him, as well as the famous man Gao Dai who was imprisoned by himself, and the famous man Sheng Xian and others who he does not like.
There are also the county guards of Yuzhou Huaxin and Liu Xuan's family, and the generals and soldiers under Fan Nengyu's command...
Cao Mengde's troops pressed the Lujiang River, making Sun Ce, who did not know the truth, understand that he must control the entire territory of Jiangdong as soon as possible before he can continue to go north!
And Cao Mengde didn't expect that Liu Xie would not go by water this time, but by a plan to cross the Lujiang River, rush into Jiangxia under Sun Ce's nose, and then run to Nanyang...
