After Liu Biao heard Li Yan's words, he immediately became angry.

"If I don't do that, what else can I do?" Liu Biao retorted angrily: "Did you let me watch Zhang Xiu being defeated by Cao Ang's army? ”

"Let that Cao Ang ride on my neck and?" When Liu Biao thought of this, he was also very angry.

And Li Yan opened his mouth and said: "My lord, the reason why I don't recommend you to go to war with the Cao army is that this Cao army is an army that has experienced a hundred battles, and they have just experienced many wars, and they have all won, and this time the morale is high. ”

"On the other hand, our Jingzhou army, especially the garrison of Nanyang County, because it is close to the Sizhou area, the situation there is relatively stable, so it has not fought a few battles so far."

"If we use an army like ours to meet an army like Cao's army, this battle will definitely be defeated!"

When Liu Biao heard this, he immediately became even more anxious.

"You get out of here, before this battle has started, you have begun to grow the morale of others and destroy your own prestige? You are like this, how can I still hand over the command of the Jingzhou Army to you? ”

Li Yan was angry when he saw Liu Biao, and even threatened with military power, but he did not have the slightest intention of backing down.

"Lord, what the last general said, every word is from the bottom of your heart, if you insist on not listening, I'm afraid that this Jingzhou is in danger!"

"Nonsense!" Liu Biao was so angry that he scolded Li Yan.

Then, he asked Li Yan to be kicked out.

After Li Yan left the main hall, he sighed and returned home, saying goodbye.

And after Liu Biao drove away Li Yan, he wholeheartedly wanted to touch Cao Ang.

Even, he specially sent his brother-in-law Cai Mao as an envoy to Nanyang County to inform Zhang Xiu of his decision.

At Zhang Xiu's home, he was hosting a banquet to entertain Cai Mao.

Since he has chosen to defect to Liu Biao, he naturally has to figure out the personal relationship between Liu Biao on weekdays.

Something like Liu Biao's favor and Cai's belief has long been heard by Zhang Xiu.

Then, for Cai's younger brother Cai Mao, Zhang Xiu naturally wants to entertain her.

In Zhang Xiu's mansion, Cai Mao and Zhang Xiu were chatting while the banquet had not officially started.

"General Cai, the last general has heard of your name a long time ago." Zhang Xiu complimented Cai Mao.

"Oh? As far as I know, I have always had nothing to do with General Zhang, so I don't know where you heard of me, General Zhang? ”

Although Cai Mao knew that Zhang Xiu's words were complimenting him, he still wanted to hear what good things the other party had next.

I saw Zhang Xiu laughing loudly and said: "Since I have taken refuge in the lord, I naturally need to understand all the people under the lord's command." ”

"And General Cai Mao, you are the strongest naval general in Jingzhou that I know!" Zhang Xiu arched his hand at Cai Mao and said, "If you say that this is a war on land, there may be many people who can defeat the general." ”

"However, if you fight on this river, then there will be no one who can compare to you, the general."

Cai Mao hurriedly waved his hand and said, "What I said is too big, I can't afford it, I can't afford it!" ”

Although Cai Mao's mouth kept saying that she couldn't bear it, her hands kept swinging.

But in fact, the corners of his mouth were almost grinning to the back of his head.

Obviously, Zhang Xiu's compliment is still very useful.

Come and don't be rude.

Cai Mao saw that Zhang Xiu was blowing at him, so he had to blow Zhang Xiu too.

"Actually, I have long heard of the name of General Zhang Xiu, the Gun King of the Northland, and it really deserves its name!" Cai Mao said to Zhang Xiu.

When Zhang Xiu heard this, he waved his hand again and again and said: "Where and where, the name of the Gun King of the North is all rumors, my Zhang Xiu is young and has not enough qualifications, how can I be able to sit in the position of the Gun King of the North Land." ”

Cai Mao saw that Zhang Xiu was still modest, so he continued: "General Zhang Xiu, you can rest assured, before I came here, the lord specially told me, if that kid Cao Ang really wants to fight you, then you will fight him!" ”

"A hairy boy like him, who doesn't know how thick the sky is, if you don't beat him hard, he won't know that he is afraid!"

When Zhang Xiu heard this, he arched his hand at Cai Mao and said, "Okay, since I have the support of the lord, then I can do it boldly with confidence." ”

When Cai Mao heard this, he arched his hand at Zhang Xiu and said, "Then I'll be here first, and I wish you a victory, general!" ”

"Borrow the general's good words." Zhang Xiu responded politely, and then the banquet began.

This Cai Mao was originally born in a wealthy family, so he is also quite proficient in eating, drinking and having fun.

Soon after the feast began, he drank happily and went to dance and have fun with his brother and the dancing girl.

When Cai Mao, who was drunk and drunk, was sent away, the smile on Zhang Xiu's face disappeared, and it was replaced by a thick sadness.

At this time, a young man dressed in coarse black clothes and with two mustaches appeared in front of Zhang Xiu.

"General, what are you worried about?" After the young man saw Zhang Xiu, he opened his mouth to ask.

And this young man is none other than Zhang Xiu's chief strategist, Jia Xu, Jia Wenhe Yesye!

After Zhang Xiu saw Jia Xu, he politely hugged his fists and greeted: "It turns out that Mr. is here, I don't know if I set up a banquet to entertain Cai Mao, has it affected Mr.?" ”

Jia Xu chuckled when he heard this, waved his hand and said: "That's not it, and what you eat at the banquet, you can eat what you eat here, this is really flattering!" ”

When Zhang Xiu heard this, he laughed and said, "This is what I should do, sir, please, let's go in and talk." ”

Afterwards, Zhang Xiu took Jia Xu and went to the study to talk.

"Sir, please be seated."

"The general sits too."

After the two sat down, Zhang Xiu couldn't help but sigh first.

Seeing this, Jia Xu on the side asked with a smile, "I don't know why the general sighed?" ”

After Zhang Xiu heard this question, he just wanted to answer, but he didn't know where to start.

So he could only sigh again, and said helplessly: "I don't know why I sigh, but I don't know how, I always want to sigh, this annoyance is too much." ”

What Cao Ang's army is pressing, and it is about to enter Nanyang.

And then there is Liu Biao, who asked Zhang Xiu to beat Cao Ang, and wanted him to fight Jiangdong, and used him as an animal! (End of chapter)
