"I wish Gongzi success and a complete battle!"

In the north of Jiangling City, I learned that Liu Chan, the youngest state pastor of the Han Dynasty, was going to personally lead the army to the expedition, except for Pan Jun, Mi Fang and other people who stayed in Jingzhou to guard the civil and military, the people of the entire Jiangling City also spontaneously rushed over and sent them off warmly.

"Fellow fathers and fellow villagers, just wait for the news of my son's triumphant return, hahahaha!"

Shouldering the hospitality of the people of Jingzhou, Liu Chan, who had just learned to ride a horse for a short time, only knocked his legs slightly, and then turned into a red flame and shot out smoothly and briskly under the carriage of the red horse, who had also just become an adult.

At the beginning of July of the 23rd year of Jian'an, on the third day when Guan Ping personally returned to Jiangling to ask for reinforcements, Liu Chan, as the lord of Jingzhou and the youngest state pastor of the Han Dynasty, led Jingzhou's 'last' group of more than 10,000 mobile troops to leave the city in a hurry, preparing to 'rush to help' the second master who was confronting Yu Ban.

……

"It's getting late today, and the soldiers are working hard to march under the scorching sun and the scorching heat...... Tell the whole army to camp in Maicheng tonight! ”

More than 50 miles north of Jiangling, the sun was just turning west, and Liu Chan, who was still looking like a man of opinion outside Jiangling City not long ago, was now in the name of sympathetic to the soldiers, and issued an order to camp in Maicheng.

"Young master, now that the sun is slanting and the temperature has gradually cooled, it is better to take advantage of the night to ......"

Hearing Liu Chan's order to camp in Maicheng, Bade hurried back to Guanping, where Fancheng participated in the battle, but at this moment, he still wanted to take advantage of the night to temporarily rush for a while.

"Brother, don't worry, the battle still has to be fought, and it won't be a moment and a half. Let's camp for one night in Maicheng today......"

Shaking his head, in the eager eyes of Guan Ping's eldest brother, Liu Chan had already taken the lead in running towards Maicheng.

Wheat City, located between the two rivers of Fuzhang, is said to have been built by King Zhao of Chu in the Spring and Autumn Period. In the fourteenth year of King Jing of Zhou, when Wu Zixu invaded Chu, in order to break through this city, he had done more than the 'feudal superstition' of building donkeys and grinding two cities left and right, so there was a proverb that "the donkey grinds in the east and grinds in the west, and the wheat city breaks itself".

But it was not King Chu Zhao who made Maicheng really famous, nor Wu Zixu, who built donkeys and grinding two cities, but the second master who was defeated here in the original history.

It's just that the second master is still the second master now, but Jingzhou is no longer the original Jingzhou under Liu Chan's management.

Therefore, Maicheng is destined to continue to be obscure and ordinary, and there will be no more opportunities to contribute to the proverb of 'Guan Gong goes to Maicheng'.

……

"How do you think the army is stationed in Maicheng?"

In the Yanai of Maicheng County, which was 'occupied' by Liu Chan, Liu Chan, who personally recruited troops in the name of rushing to the aid of the second master, made the decision to garrison Maicheng at this moment.

"Maicheng is only more than 50 miles away from Jiangling, with the ability of our Jingzhou army, the rapid march can be rushed back in only half a day, and it is a good place for the garrison......"

Regarding Liu Chan's decision, Pang Tong, who was dressed as a personal guard on the side, did not feel any surprise.

After all, although the second master of the army was nominally to aid Fancheng, the real purpose was the Jiangdong water fish who was eager to bite the hook into the net.

"It's just that this place is too close to Jiangling, I wonder if Gongzi has ever thought about how this army should hide its whereabouts? In case the first session is noticed by Koto Hosaku......"

In the end, after affirming Liu Chan's proposal, Pang Tong looked at him with the meaning of the school examination.

"Haha, this matter is easy to hear! At the beginning, Dong Zhuo was able to enter and exit at night and day in Luoyang, let's draw a gourd in the same way, and just go out and enter at night by day! ”

Hearing Pang Tong's inquiry with the meaning of the school examination, Liu Chan easily gave a solution.

……

"Young master, now that the west has sunk, and the soldiers have already nourished their spirits, it's time to go!"

In a dense forest more than 20 miles north of Maicheng, seeing that the last ray of red and blood-like remnant sun in the sky has also passed, Guan Ping, who is anxious to return to Fancheng, can't wait any longer at this moment, and when he finds Liu Chan, who is sleeping against a big tree, he shakes up.

There was no way, after setting off from Maicheng with great fanfare early in the morning, the army only slowly swallowed more than 20 miles, and Liu Chan once again ordered the whole army to rest on the grounds that the weather was too hot, saying that he would wait until the evening was cool before leaving.

But now that it's dark, he didn't wait for the order to set off, so it's no wonder that he's not in a hurry.

"Haha, I didn't expect this sleep to be at this time!"

Liu Chan, who was woken up by Guan Ping, stretched his waist and looked up at the half-moon that had slowly risen in the sky.

"Hehe, it's still early, and Childe is now at the age of lethargy, and he can't be prevented if he sleeps for a while!"

In Guan Ping's anxious expression, Pang Tong, who had also been sleeping under the tree before, was talking nonsense with his eyes open at this moment.

"I said military advisor, this is about to rise in the middle of the moon, where is it early?"

Looking at Pang Tong's 'flattering' smile in the moonlight, Guan Ping couldn't help but be speechless for a while.

"Haha, brother, don't worry, this place is only more than twenty miles away from Maicheng, and it won't take long to rush over......"

"Mai...... Wheat City? I said brother-in-law, did you mishear it or did you fall asleep? Fancheng is in the north, let's go back to Maicheng to do ......"

Hearing Liu Chan say that he was going to Maicheng, before he could finish speaking, Guan Ping looked at him with a puzzled expression, and even changed the previous title of 'young master' to 'brother-in-law'.

"Haha, brother heard me right, little brother didn't sleep confused, let's go back to Maicheng!"

Looking at Guan Ping's puzzled expression, Liu Chan laughed again and affirmed what he had just said.

"Then we won't rush to help my father?"

After getting Liu Chan's confirmation, Guan Ping couldn't help but be a little confused.

"Brother also underestimates the second uncle, with the strength in the hands of the second uncle, to deal with the 30,000 new and old soldiers in the forbidden area, how can we help?"

In Guan Ping's bewildered expression, Liu Chan looked at him with a playful expression.

"Uh, that'...... This ......"

Hearing Liu Chan say this, Guan Ping, who was already puzzled by the second master's need to let him come back to help the troops this time, was even more puzzled at the moment.

"Order, order all soldiers to be ranked, horses to tie their mouths, and immediately turn back to Maicheng after half an hour, and not to make a noise!"

Just when Guan Ping was still confused, Liu Chan had already given the order to quietly turn back to Maicheng.

At this point, with the close 'cooperation' of Lu Meng and Lu Xun, Liu Chan's big net against Jiangdong water fish has been fully opened, and he is waiting for the other party to officially enter the net!

"Childe, now that everything is ready on the Jiangling side, it's time for Wancheng to launch and cooperate with Yunchang to close the net!"

Just after Liu Chan gave the order to return to Junmaicheng, Pang Tong spoke again in Guan Ping's still confused and confused expression, reminding the second master to close the net.
