Although Cao Jun retreated, it was even busier for Guan Yu, Xu Shu and others, who were short of manpower.

The soldiers need to be sent to the rear to disperse the guards, the corpses under Fancheng need to be disposed of, and the rivers of Huashui and Hanshui that were damaged by the great war also need to be re-corrected, which are relatively important.

The people of the northern part of Jingzhou need to be pacified, and the Cao soldiers scattered into the countryside also need to be pacified or exterminated, and these errands need to be continued.

As for the simultaneous promotion of agricultural officials and water power workshops, needless to say, this also requires a large amount of investment.

And when these were sent to Jiang Wan in the rear, Jiang Wan was a little smacked when he just roughly calculated the number of officials needed:

Jingzhou may also open an official school, otherwise it will be a bit delayed.

For a few people in Wancheng, the most critical issue now is the garrison defense.

"Guan Ping asked to attack and block Yang!"

Looking at the eldest son's petition, Guan Yu was a little hesitant for a while.

Duyang is located between Yaoshan Mountain and Fuyu Mountain, and belongs to the gateway of Jingzhou to the north.

But the terrain here is open and not easy to defend, and out of the plug is Yingchuan and Xuchang, the terrain can be said to be critical, can not be more important.

Moreover, when the new grain is harvested in July, even if it is just to strengthen the momentum, the Cao army will definitely attack again, and at that time, Duyang will inevitably be an important place for the two armies to fight.

Zhang Fei looked at the eldest nephew's stubborn look, and then looked at the second brother with his eyes closed and pondered, and said:

"Since Guan Ping is not safe to guard the sun, it is better to make General Huang ......"

Huang Zhong's face was overjoyed, but then Guan Yu gave a sonorous order:

"Then order Guan Ping to take the dance yin first, and then attack the yang!"

"Huang Zhong goes east and attacks Pingxian and Biyang!"

Guan Ping did not change color, Huang Zhong was overjoyed, and he received orders one after another.

Biyang is in the east of Jingzhou, and further east is Runan.

And if you continue to the east is Shouchun, there is a not famous city called Hefei next to it.

"I don't know if my eldest brother lost, and if he wore the title of 100,000 yuan."

Zhang Fei was very worried.

Guan Yu's face darkened:

"With Lu Zijing with him, he will definitely not cause such a catastrophe."

"Not necessarily."

It was Xu Shu who had just come in from the outside to refute, and he sighed:

"Jiangdong news, Sun Hou raised 100,000 troops, personally took charge, went out of Chaohu Lake to attack Hefei, and returned defeated."

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei looked at each other, and Zhang Fei asked out loud:

"Shouldn't it be a no-go-no?"

So later, more news arrived, and Zhang Fei and Guan Yu understood.

Lu Su followed the army as the governor and had a lot of advice, so when Jiangdong arrived in Hefei, it looked like the same thing.

However, because of the previous hesitation, Xiahoudun had already moved his army here, and Shouchun and Hefei had a combined force of 30,000, and he had been waiting for Sun Quan in Hefei for many days.

Xiahoudun didn't think about so many twists and turns, but thought that Sun Quan's delay in sending troops was to paralyze himself, so he was more prepared.

Although Lu Su persuaded him, Jiangdong's military system could not be as commanded by his arms, and it was still chaotic when he arrived at the city of Hefei.

As a result, when burying the pot and cooking in the evening, Zhang Liao led 8,000 horsemen out of the city, and all of them died, Zhang Liao calmly rushed to kill, beheaded Chen Wu, and the Jiangdong army was defeated.

If it weren't for the critical moment when Lu Suling led his troops to desperately rush to the death and stabilize the formation, the Jiangdong Army might have had a tragedy of people stepping on each other that night.

"How can you be undefeated?"

There is no need to listen to it later, Zhang Fei shook his head and sighed, and then regretted for his family Zhang Liao:

"It's a pity that I lost the name of Zhang Babai."

"It's hard for Lu Zijing." Xu Shu sighed.

Recently, the information accumulated in Jiangling has also been sent to Wancheng, among which Lu Su's sudden departure and Sun Quan's sudden dispatch of troops were linked by Xu Shu, and it is easy to speculate that there are eight or nine inseparable tens.

In this case, Lu Su was easily pushed to the forefront.

But...... Xu Shu shook his head:

"This is also the disaster connived at by Sun Hou."

"When it was Chibi, Jiangdong could still compete with Cao Jun and win."

"As soon as Zhou Gongjin died, the elite soldiers of Jiangdong became private soldiers, and ten more battles were defeated."

Guan Yu stroked his beard, if Lu Su was angry because of this, then he should be saved no matter what.

And Guan Yu's original intention is also very simple:

Admire the true gentleman and respect the great husband.

Xu Shu understood his thoughts at a glance at Guan Yu, and couldn't help but smile and turned the topic back:

"It is imperative to ask the two generals and the lord Chen Jingzhou to repay the merits of Xiangfan."

This is a matter of course, so three days later, Zhang Fei led a team of elite horsemen back the same way with the watch, and returned to Hanzhong through Fangling Shangyong.

When passing by Fangling, the general guarding the city saw Zhang Fei from afar, and immediately waved his hand and shouted:

"Third uncle!"

Zhang Fei looked at Liu Feng who rode out of the city gate and was also slightly relieved.

Liu Feng's identity is important, and the things that Ma Mifang and Mifang under his command know are important, so Zhang Fei did not dare to take him to the Jingxiang battlefield.

In this case, Pang Tong simply compromised:

After Zhang Fei set off, he recalled 2,000 soldiers and horses from Wuzhangyuan, and tightened his belt from Hanzhong to save 1,000 soldiers and horses, making Fu Wei the commander and Liu Feng the vanguard, and taking down Fangling Shangyong in earnest.

Now it seems that the effect is good, Liu Feng's small life is okay.

"Third uncle, I caught one person, you can take it back and dedicate it to your father."

Liu Feng said as he took out a haggard prisoner from the city, and Zhang Fei waited for him to raise his head and took a closer look, a little surprised:

"Cai Mao? How did you escape here? ”

When they were in Wancheng to check their battle exploits, Huang Zhong said that he did not have Cai Mao in his capture, and later he only thought that he had died in the chaos, and he didn't expect to see it here.

"Then I'll take this away, and I'll give you credit!" Zhang Fei promised.

Without further ado, Zhang Fei took Cai Mao on the road, and he was bored on the road, chattering and asking clearly.

Fleeing at night and losing his way, he was later coerced by the rebels, and after thinking about it, he decided that Fang Ling borrowed soldiers to ask for merit and atonement, but the result was that he was picked up by Liu Feng.

After asking clearly, Zhang Fei was not interested, which caused Cai Mao's mentality to be a little unbalanced:

"I am the Cai family of Jingzhou, and I can help Xuande determine Jingzhou fairly!"

Zhang Fei is impatient:

"Sellers seeking glory are still so noisy? Jingzhou has been restored, and there is no need for them. ”

A thought suddenly popped up in my heart:

Cai Mao is in Jingzhou, one is the second master of the Wang clan, and now that the Wang clan has fallen, the water master is not as good as Jiangling, what is the use of this Cai Mao?

After arriving in Hanzhong, before Zhang Fei could rest, he was approached by Pang Tong:

"Yi Deding brought the letter of Yun Chang's performance, without further ado, send it to the lord as soon as possible."

Zhang Fei naturally had no opinion, but when they set off together, they took out another letter from their arms:

"This is what Xu Junshi wrote to Pang Junshi."

Seeing that Pang Tong was concentrating on reading the letter, Zhang Fei swept left and right to see that Pang Tong also brought a scribe.

"Master Pang, who is this?"

The scribe had a gentle temperament, and he also gave Zhang Fei a salute quite leisurely.

"He?"

Pang Tong glanced at it and said indifferently:

"Captive."

"Where did you catch it?"

Zhang Fei was curious.

"I didn't catch it, Mr. Xianhe caught it, and sent it back by Chama Chao, oh yes......"

Pang Tong raised his head from the letter and said with a smile:

"His name, Sima Yi."

Zhang Feideng's time is fierce:

"This is Emperor Xuan of Jin?"

The stakes are very high, so Zhang Fei's voice is not loud, but Sima Yi is still taken aback by Zhang Fei's attitude, and he can't help but sigh in his heart.

At the same time, I keep thinking about what went wrong?

But the conclusion is that he should be invulnerable.

Everything went well before Ma Chao, but Ma Chao's personable staff almost spilled his wine glass when he heard his name.

At that time, Sima Yi felt that it was not right, and wanted to take the opportunity to escape and find Han Sui for shelter.

But unfortunately, before he could make a request, Ma Chao broke into the door in the middle of the night and tied himself into a bag.

When he came out of the bag again, he saw Pang Tong, and after hearing his name, he also looked around him several times.

This Zhang Fei is like this again, and even in order not to cause trouble, he even took the initiative to pay a salute, but after saying a few words to Pang Tong, he faced him with an attitude of choosing people and devouring them.

For a while, Sima Yi was panicked and dazed: what went wrong?

Pang Tong smiled and stopped Zhang Fei's thoughts:

"The light curtain is called Kong Ming's old enemy, bring it back to Chengdu, and it will be decided by the lord and Kong Ming."

"He is here, he has neither relatives nor Cao Jun, what can he do?"

Zhang Fei thought about it for a while, but then looked around:

"Why don't you bring the disciple back to Zhuge to show it?"

Pang Tong was in a hurry:

"What disciple? Where did the disciples come from? ”

Zhang Fei laughed, regardless of Pang Tong's anger, he took the initiative to lead the horse forward and go west out of Yangping Pass.

Later, Sima Yi whispered a few words to Cai Mao, who was also a captive, and then said in surprise:

"Jingzhou is lost?"

Seeing Cai Mao's lifeless face, Sima Yi also quieted down again.

Perhaps, this Uncle Liu Huang is also a source? After all, he didn't really work for Cao Thief.

And if you think about it this way, did Uncle Liu Huang also listen to his name, so he kidnapped people like this?

After all, I heard that he was looking for a talent in Jingzhou, so did he want to take Qiao?

For a while, Sima Yi simply had a sense of self-pity for Gu Ying, first Cao Cao, and then Liu Bei, why didn't these people respect his own opinion?

And in the city of Chengdu, Mr. Li couldn't hold back his smile.

Jing Xiang's battle is far from here, and Mr. Li is just happy about his wise decision.

It is now July, and Chengdu's farmland has a bumper harvest, and after paying Uncle Liu's field endowment, every household has a lot of surpluses, and even containers are not enough.

The price of clay pots and clay jars has risen a lot with the harvest, and the supply exceeds demand.

This wave of bumper harvest has driven the displaced people from the surrounding counties to move to Chengdu, and the location of the poor location that Mr. Li once bought is now hot, and the price of the house alone has risen nearly three times.

Moreover, the daughter of Xiao Taixue also told him that Uncle Liu Huang had decided to divert the new people of Chengdu and divide them to Pixian, Fanxian, Jiangyuan and other places around Chengdu, and try his best to develop the Chengdu Plain.

Mr. Li is knowledgeable, he only thinks that Chengdu has a lot to do in the future.

And the errand of Dalang Sugar Mill is quite handy, and if it goes well, it is not impossible to be a small steward this year.

Erlang is idle, and he can't calm down to do errands, but somehow he is quite favored by the little widow, and Uncle Li simply doesn't want to care anymore, the widow is a widow, whether it succeeds or not, the lazy nature of Erlang is also successful.

As for the little lady, oh no, Li Shu...... Uncle Li opened the steaming urn while thinking, and then became furious:

"Li Shu! Why did you take three more meatloafs, did you want to secretly bring them to the fox surname! ”

Li Shu, who was outside the house, lost her previous weakness, and escaped from the house with a small bamboo basket without looking back:

"That little Langjun's parents are gone, and they all rely on the eldest father to support them."

"If we can help, we can help."

Uncle Li chased him outside the hospital and was stunned for a long time, shook his head and sighed and went back.

I felt a sense of loss.
