Chapter 766 The situation in Nanyang

The news that Mu Jing visited Lumenshan Academy in person soon spread from Xiangyang City.

Among the scholars, it is an elegant thing for three or five friends to cook wine and talk. With a pot of fine wine, the three or five friends will talk all the time, you talk, I talk, naturally there is no secret at all.

This incident caused a storm among Shilin in an instant.

"The shepherd thief really went to Lumen Mountain?"

"He must have been shot down by gentlemen!"

"Not necessarily!"

"Could it be that Mr. Shui Jing and the others can still agree with a bandit!"

"But I heard that the three gentlemen personally invited the shepherd thief into the stone pavilion, made tea and greeted them, and the conversation was very pleasant!"

"What nonsense!"

"Don't you forget that the shepherd thief who speaks so clearly in your mouth is the first-class prince of today's imperial court!"

"That's not the case, he is also a thief, a thief who steals the country!"

"Xiangyang is suffering because of him today. If this beast is not killed, it will not be enough to calm the people!"

"I don't think so. At the beginning, you all flattered Liu Jingsheng's town of Jingzhou, but it was useless. Living in the hands of tens of thousands of rebels with a hundred thousand troops defeated, how could you entrust such a useless person!"

"I don't think the gentlemen on Lumen Mountain have ever been optimistic about Liu Jingsheng's ability, so they will receive Mulongtu!"

"No way!"

"Is it possible that a few highly respected gentlemen will accept a bandit as the Lord of Jingzhou? It's unimaginable!"

"..."

Shilin soon sparked a burst of discussion, and the discussion was no longer one-sided as before. Instead, some people became hesitant because of the attitude shown on Lumen Mountain, and some even began to stand on the side of Mu Jun. speak from a standpoint.

State Shepherd's House.

in the lobby.

"My lord, the initial results have been achieved. It seems that their influence is huge. As you guessed, their inaction has made many scholars waver!" Chen Gong said excitedly: "These few days The comments on us in Tiancheng seem to have dropped a bit!"

"This is only for a while!" Mu Jing said softly: "Forging iron requires our own hard work. We can gain the trust of the people, so that we can truly gain a firm foothold!"

"But the current resistance to governing Xiangyang is too great!"

"Then clean it up. You should go and make preparations immediately, and then pay a visit to all the influential families in the city!" Mu Jing said coldly: "This time, be more firm in your attitude and be more ruthless in your actions. They will either Choose to be quiet, or just ransack the family and exterminate the family!"

"Where is Lumen Mountain?"

Chen Gong was a little worried.

"They are great Confucians. Since they have said it, they will do it. They will definitely not make a move!" Mu Jing said, "Scholars can't achieve great things without their leaders. Before I left, I wasn't afraid of chaos in Xiangyang, but after I left, Xiangyang It must be safe and sound, so the contradiction, when it should be stimulated, will be stimulated!"

"Understood!"

Chen Gong nodded and accepted the order.

There is a saying that is correct. Scholars rebel and fail in ten years. Scholars do have the influence of scholars, but because they read too much and judge the situation too rigorously, they lose their courage.

If Lumen Mountain takes the lead, they can oppose them, but if Lumen Mountain does not move, people in Jingzhou Shilin will think about whether they should move or not.

"Of course, you have to grasp a degree!"

Mu Jing said: "Hit a batch and pull a horse, that's the way to go. The affairs of Xiangyang will ultimately need the support of people from Xiangyang to succeed!"

"I know, I will take care of myself!"

Chen Gong nodded.

"Also, in the next two days, I will go north in person to Xinye and talk to Lei Bo. This Nanyang issue cannot be dragged on. Even if we can't counterattack, at least we can't let the situation rot!"

Mujing Road.

He began preparations for going south.

This time leading the army to the south was not for Jingzhou City, and it was of great importance. Whether he could gain Liu Yan's trust or not, he had to make the most complete preparations for this move. Of course, the first point was to solve the future troubles.

Their future troubles, Nanyang.

The situation in Nanyang is corrupt.

Among the forces of the three sides intertwined, Yuan Jun was already a discomfited army, and was beaten back and forth, leaving only Xinye to gain a foothold, while the Guanzhong Army was as powerful as a broken bamboo, centered on Wancheng, radiated around, captured Nanxiang one after another, and flattened the land. Wuyin, the whole of Nanyang, has been controlled by them.

As for Mujun, there are only Wudang and a few small counties in Shandu.

If so, you're fine.

But now it seems that Huangfusong may not stop there. He has a strong army in his hand. If he sends troops to bite himself after his troops go south, losing Wudang and the mountains is just a trivial matter. If the main force is defeated, it will be a big deal .

So before going south, he planned to go north.

Meet Lei Bo.

Lei Bo still has some troops in his hands. They were enemies before, but now they may become allies. At least they can ensure that the situation in Nanyang will not deteriorate, keep the road to Wudang, and prevent the main force from being alone and away from the support of Hanzhong.

"How many soldiers and horses do you bring?" Chen Gong asked.

"No, Xiangyang has just stabilized now. Once the troops are transferred, it will definitely alarm the whole world!"

Mu Jing shook his head and said: "I'll take Huang Zhong and Modaoying with me, just go north with me, I'm not going to fight, and I'll send troops to keep an eye on Deng Long, or you can go meet Deng Long yourself, Huang Zu withdrew, but he was pressing down on the surrounding area of ​​Xiangyang, this person is a bit interesting!"

"My lord, what you mean is that he is stationed in Caiyang, does he have other plans?" Chen Gong quickly understood Mu Jing's meaning.

"I don't know if there are other plans!"

Mu Jing shook his head, and then said: "But I can be sure that he may not follow Liu Biao wholeheartedly. The current Liu Biao, to put it bluntly, is a lost dog whose old nest has been taken away. He will definitely not have the prestige and ambitions of the past. , Let alone relying on others, it is still possible to support yourself!"

"I understand what my lord means!"

Chen Gong nodded: "My lord wants Deng Long to have the heart to support himself!"

"It doesn't matter what I think, what matters is what Liu Biao thinks!"

"In this case, I have to meet him in person!" Chen Gong said with a smile: "As long as he has reason, Liu Biao may not trust him as before. Once Liu Biao deprives him of his military power, then this scene will be very interesting! "

"How to operate, you can figure it out yourself, Jing Wusi will cooperate with you, but you still have to take care of Xiangyang's affairs!"

Mu Jing said: "I've thought about it, if Xiangyang can be preserved, I will defend it unless it can't be preserved. Only if there is a glimmer of hope, I still hope that Xiangyang can be stabilized. Even if it is for the future, Xiangyang is also very important! "

Xiangyang is just a springboard, but it was also laid down by him desperately. How many adventures, how many life and death struggles, he captured Xiangyang. If he could, he really didn't want to let go.

Of course, he knows which is more important. He can't put too many troops here.

"Then I have a request!" Chen Gong cupped his hands.

"Say!"

"Transfer people from the Nanyang Prefect's Mansion to Xiangyang!" Chen Gong said with a wry smile, "I can still hold on for the time being, but Xiangyang is a main city with tens of thousands of people after all, and someone needs to handle it by himself!"

"That's a good idea!"

Hearing this, Mu Jing suddenly realized, and nodded abruptly: "Why didn't I think of them, I always felt that no one was available, but obviously there are still a group of people who can be used, Nanxiang has been lost, the former Nanyang prefect's mansion People, now they have also retreated to Wudang, and they are invited to tidy up Xiangyang, but there is no need to dispatch officials from Hanzhong, which relieves the pressure on Hanzhong, and they can make the best use of everything they come here. They can stabilize Nanyang steadily, and only Xiangyang , and must be able to hold on!"

A shortage of talent is his biggest problem.

The background of Minghou's mansion is too little, and Mu's family is known as a national traitor. It is too difficult for him to recruit talents to help him. People recommend themselves. He is here to coerce a few talents for his own use.
