Three Kingdoms: I help Liu Bei grow thousands of miles

Chapter 68 Ben Xiakou, Liu Bei's plan
Liu Bei raised his hand and said, "General Zhang is polite."

"I am Zhang Ben, and I have met Liu Shijun." General Qiuran responded with cupped fists.

"Your Majesty summoned me urgently, what's the matter?" Liu Bei asked knowingly.

Zhang Ben: "Sun Quan is in a hurry to attack Jiangxia. My lord is afraid that the prefect of Huang will make mistakes. Please send Jun to lead troops to support."

"Is it General Zhang's forbidden soldiers?" Liu Beixin said that he made a profit this time, and the combat effectiveness of the forbidden soldiers may not be low.

Zhang Ben shook his head and said: "The forbidden soldiers in Xiangyang can't be moved lightly. My lord has sent people to Jingnan to transfer the soldiers of Mr. Liu Pan to the north, so that you only need to lightly ride to Jiangxia."

"How can this Mr. Liu Pan obey my orders?" Liu Bei said speechlessly.

Zhang Ben explained: "Mr. Liu, don't worry, I have the lord's command of the tiger talisman here, and Mr. Liu Pan will definitely obey your general's orders."

Liu Pan was Liu Biao's son, and he was highly valued by him. Liu Bei thought that if this person really led the army, his trip would be in vain.

"Will Mr. Liu Pan go there in person? Isn't it superfluous to prepare for this trip?" Liu Bei's words were somewhat refusal.

Zhang Ben shook his head and said: "Although Jingnan has been pacified, there are still many rebellions. Mr. Liu Pan should let the generals go to Jiangxia, and he himself has to guard where he is. The main reason is that there are soldiers but no commanders. Ask Liu Shijun to help you."

"So that's the case, then when are we going to leave? And this Tiger Talisman." Liu Bei was relieved when Zhang Ben said this, maybe it could really work.

"I'll let my relatives go with Su Jing and the Tiger Talisman, and Liu Shijun can go to Jiangxia quickly." Zhang Ben said.

"In that case, then Bei will take his leave first." Liu Bei said with cupped fists.

"I'll see off the envoy," Zhang Ben said.

Zhang Ben sent Liu Bei out of the city, turned around and returned to his horse, and saw Cai Mao and Kuai Yue following him.

"Liu Xuande's horse is really fast, as expected of a famous horse Lu." Cai Mao laughed.

"It's a pity to hinder the Lord." Kuai Yue shook his head and sighed.

"Will Mr. Yidu's scheme succeed?" Zhang Ben asked worriedly. After all, he was Liu Biao's confidant, but at this time he was in trouble with this man.

Cai Mao comforted: "General Zhang, don't worry, even if this plan fails, brother-in-law will not blame you. Liu Xuande is like a thorn in his throat in Xinye. Brother-in-law has long wanted to get rid of him, but he just doesn't want to bear the name of harming the virtuous."

Kuai Yue nodded and said: "Huang Zu is a mediocre man, he has already killed You Zhengping before, so killing Liu Bei is of no importance, as long as Su Jing is smart enough, this plan will surely come true."

"Then there's no problem, it's just the lord." Zhang Ben was still worried about Liu Biao's rift.

"Cao Jun has already gone south, and Jingzhou will return to the prime minister sooner or later. Even if you fall out of favor with your brother-in-law, wouldn't it be better for me to recommend you to the prime minister?" Cai Mao said nonchalantly.

Zhang Ben's eyes became firm after hearing this, and he cupped his fists and said, "Thank you, General, for your support."

Cai Mao stroked his beard and smiled slightly, thinking that based on the relationship between me and the prime minister, is it just around the corner?

After Liu Bei left Xiangyang, he hurried southeastward, replenished his supplies in Pang County that night, and stationed in horses to rest.

"My lord, I heard that Huang Zu is a mighty general in Jingzhou. I don't know how Sun Quan uses his troops. We don't understand water warfare." Zhao Yun worried.

"Just help defend Xiakou. The water battle has to be handed over to Huang Taishou and the others." Liu Bei said.

"My lord, as long as you block the land soldiers, Xiakou's terrain is dangerous, and Huang Zu has been in business for many years, so he has more experience in defending the city than Gong Zhong." Jian Yong said with a smile.

When Jian Yong mentioned Liu Feng, Liu Bei was suddenly worried about this adopted son. They came out of Xinye in a hurry, and never thought about going to Jiangxia.

"Xianhe, you should rush back to Xinye overnight, tell Gongzhong where Zilong and I are going, and go to Dengjiazhuang to ask Lan Ziyu to take some soldiers from the fields to garrison in Xinye. I can't resist it," Liu Bei said.

"Wei." After Jian Yong finished speaking, he rode away alone.

When Jian Yong came to Dengjiazhuang, Liu Bei had left Xiangyang for two days.

At this time, the autumn is crisp, and the farmers in the farms either take a break, or are called by Gao Shun to train in rotation.

After Jian Yong explained his intentions, Lan Tian always felt a conspiracy.

"Mr. Ziyu, please go to Xinye as soon as possible. I'll take a rest at the village first. I haven't closed my eyes for two days." Jian Yong said wearily.

"Xianhe, please tell me about my brother-in-law before and after he went to Xiangyang in detail. Why do I feel that something is wrong." Lan Tian shook his head and said.

"No?" Jian Yong knew that the talent in Lantian was not inferior to Xu Shu, so he started from Yiji to Xinye.

After hearing this, Lan Tian was very puzzled. When did Liu Xuande become handsome in Liu Biao's eyes?Besides, Xu Shu and Guan Zhang only went north for a few days, how can there be such a coincidence in the world?No matter how you look at it, it seems to have been premeditated.

Tune the tiger away from the mountain?These four words suddenly appeared in Lan Tian's mind.

Could it be that Liu Biao was jealous because Xinye recruited refugees?If this trip to Jiangxia was a trap, it would be too dangerous. There seems to be no such period in history.

Is it because I have a butterfly effect?Lan Tian suddenly felt a buzzing in his head.

"Mr. Ziyu? Is there any trouble, my lord?" Seeing that Lan Tian was silent, Jian Yong hurriedly asked.

Lan Tian made a decisive decision: "Sir, quit your hard work, and you must go to Xiping immediately to find Xu Junshi. My lord's trip to Jiangxia may be dangerous, so I will take a thousand soldiers to meet him first."

"If that's the case? Then I'll leave immediately." Jian Yong regained his energy when he heard Lan Tian's words.

After Jian Yong left, Lantian summoned Gao Shun and asked him to immediately gather a thousand soldiers in the field to go to Jiangxia to meet Liu Bei.

"Xiao Jun, you also put on your cloak and go with us." Lan Tian said to Lu Lingqi after Gao Shun left.

Lu Lingqi smiled and said: "Husband, you don't have to be so cautious, Gao Boping knows the priorities, even if you don't pull me, he will listen to you."

Lan Tian shook his head and said, "No, I expect brother-in-law's situation is critical, and my wife's martial arts skills can help me."

Lu Lingqi was surprised when she heard that, "Oh? I'm going to change my clothes and go with my husband."

In October of the same year, Liu Bei rushed to Hengsangkou, but Liu Pan's soldiers and horses did not arrive as scheduled.

Su Jing suggested to continue eastward and wait at the forest barrier west of Xiakou. Liu Bei considered the need for supplies, so he continued eastward and stationed horses in the forest barrier.

"Now that Jiangxia is under siege, the general should not advance lightly, for fear of being mistaken for Sun Quan's sneak attacking soldiers. I will hold the tiger talisman and go see Huang Taishou, and Liu Shijun will just wait for Mr. Liu Pan's reinforcements." Su Jing suggested. road.

"General, go and come back quickly, and ask for some supplies by the way." Liu Bei ordered.

"Don't worry, I'll be back when I'm young." After Su Jing finished speaking, he got on his horse and headed for Xiakou.

At this time, Sun Quan and Huang Zu were fighting on the Yangtze River. Because of the deep grievances between the two families, the battle was quite fierce, and the city was guarded by the governor Su Fei.

Su Fei felt a little surprised when he saw Su Jing, the banned soldier from Xiangyang, come to Xiakou.

"Why are you here if you're not in Xiangyang?" Su Fei asked.

"A secret report came from Jiangdong's secret work, Sun Quan sent someone to pretend to be Liu Bei to earn Xiakou, and my lord sent me to hold the tiger talisman to inform Huang Taishou not to fall into the trap." Su Jing said seriously.

Xiakou is located in the north of the river. It is a small town at the confluence of the Yangtze River and the Han River. It faces Jiangxia to the south of the Yangtze River across the river. The small town of Xiakou City is weaker than the opposite bank.

Su Fei and Su Jing are from the same village, so seeing the Tiger Talisman in his hand, he has no doubts.

"Sun Quan doesn't know how to use soldiers, so how could we be fooled by such a despicable trick?" Su Fei shook his head and laughed.

　Thanks to Shang Ci for the reward, and thanks to the handsome men and women who voted.
