Chapter 194 Wuchang Seized Power

Five days later, a naval warship from Chaisang slowly approached the wharf of Wuchang County. The Jiangdong Army had withdrawn from Wuchang County three days ago, and Wuchang County was immediately taken over by Su Fei. Before Liu Jing asked Gan Ning to contact him However, Su Fei took the initiative to send his confidant to send a secret letter, expressing his willingness to support Liu Jing as Jiangxia's new master.

On the pier, Su Fei watched the Chaisang fleet approaching from a distance. After withdrawing from Xiakou, he rectified Jiangxia's defeated army, and unexpectedly gained more than [-] troops. After a disastrous defeat, the entire army withdrew from Jiangxia, and he reoccupied Wuchang County.

The expression in Su Fei's eyes was a bit complicated, wondering what kind of status Liu Jing would give him?

On the side, Su Fei's lieutenant general Zhang Shuo said in a low voice: "Why didn't the captaincy send someone to dedicate Jiang Xia to Zhou Mu? At that time, the governor will probably appoint the captain as the prefect of Jiangxia."

Su Fei sighed, "Young Master Jing has defeated the main force of the Jiangdong army. Do you think he will allow others to get involved in Jiangxia? I am afraid that Lianzhou Mu will be helpless. Instead of being hostile by him, it is better to offer the city, at least in Jiangxia. There is a place for you and me."

Zhang Shuo was silent, and just as he was about to speak again, a small boat sailed to the pier first. The head of the boat was Gan Ning, who was tall and burly, and he saw Su Fei at a glance, and shouted: "Brother Yicai, you It really is here."

Yicai is Su Fei's character. Su Fei recognized Gan Ning, and he was overjoyed. He went up to Zhang Shuo without waiting for Zhang Shuo to say more, "Brother Gan, why did you come first?"

Seeing that Su Fei didn't listen to his words, Zhang Shuo's eyes were sullen. He originally wanted to tell Su Fei that if he offered Jiang Xia to Liu Biao, even if he wasn't named Jiang Xia prefect, he would be reused elsewhere. Wouldn't this be much better than following Liu Jing? , but Su Fei wanted to surrender to Liu Jing, and refused to listen to his advice. Zhang Shuo was very annoyed, and this would affect his future.

Gan Ning jumped off the boat, laughed and hugged Su Fei tightly, "I heard that Huang Zu is dead, so I was worried about your safety. I am very happy to know that brother Yicai is safe and sound!"

Su Fei also sighed: "I feel the same way. I am also worried about your safety. The defeat of the Jiangdong Army is good news for all of us."

Gan Ning nodded, "For me, the best news is that you dedicated Wuchang to Mr. Jing instead of Zhou Mu. Brother Yicai, at the critical moment, you made the right move."

Su Fei hurriedly asked in a low voice: "Brother Gan, can you tell me how Young Master Jing plans to use me?"

Gan Ning smiled, he was here to appease Su Fei first, to reassure Su Fei that he would not turn to Liu Biao again, Gan Ning asked back, "Do you think you can do anything?"

Su Fei gave a wry smile, "No matter how I think about it, I can't imagine that there is Xu Shu as the military advisor, you, Mr. Hu, Wei Yan, Liao Hua, and Li Jun as the main generals. What can I, Su Fei, do?"

In fact, what Su Fei was most worried about was that Liu Jing still let him be the captain, but this captain was really a void, without any real power, and he didn't want to be the captain anymore.

Gan Ning patted him on the shoulder, "I came here first to talk to you about this matter. There are three positions for you to choose from. One is to continue to serve as the captain and be the No. [-] person in Jiang Xia's name; To be in charge of military affairs, and then to be transferred to a civilian position, as Jiangxia Juncheng."

Su Fei bowed his head and remained silent. He won't take up the post as a vacant captain. Although he is a high-ranking official of two thousand shi and is at the same level as the prefect, he doesn't take it seriously. He is quite tempted to join the army and do a good job, but the governor is also very attractive. Although the position is only six hundred shi, Liu Jing must focus on military affairs, so the political power of Jiangxia County is actually in the hands of the county magistrate.

The original magistrate was Zhou Bing, who surrendered to Jiangdong when Wuchang City was broken, and was taken away by the Jiangdong army, leaving the post of magistrate vacant. Su Fei is a native of Jiangxia, of course he understands the importance of magistrate, he pondered After a long time, he smiled and said, "Then I'll change careers! Mr. Jing doesn't think Su Fei's intelligence is dull, and I'm willing to accept the post of Jun Cheng."

In fact, this is also Liu Jing's hope. He wanted to take Su Fei's army, but he didn't want Su Fei to take up the military post again, so he specially gave him the post of Jun Cheng. Everyone is happy.

Gan Ning was overjoyed, Su Fei was so sensible, it saved him many troubles and struggles in the future, and also saved him the dilemma.

At this time, there was a loud shout from the pier: "Docked!"

More than [-] warships led by Liu Jing began to dock slowly. The first thousand-stone ship docked first, and a group of soldiers stepped off the big ship. , Su Fei rushed forward, knelt down on one knee and said, "Su Fei has been waiting for you for a long time, and is willing to work for you!"

Gan Ning whispered something in Liu Jing's ear, Liu Jing nodded, quickly helped Su Fei up with a smile, and said with a slight smile: "Mr. Su refuses to surrender to Jiangdong, so it can be seen that he is a loyal person. In the future, Jiangxia's government affairs will be more important." Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Su."

This sentence is tantamount to acknowledging that Su Fei is Jiangxia County Prime Minister. Su Fei was overjoyed, and bowed again: "Su Fei is willing to do his best to govern Jiangxia, and will not let Mr. Jing down."

Su Fei greeted Huang Zhong again, at this time, a dozen or so civil and military officials came up to meet Liu Jing together, Su Fei pulled Zhang Shuo forward and smiled: "This is General Zhang Guangyuan, this time the security guard Half of the army is General Zhang's subordinates, please take care of Mr. Jing in the future."

Zhang Shuo was in a complicated mood, and knelt down on one knee to salute, "The last general, Zhang Shuo, will see Mr. Jing."

Liu Jing hurriedly helped him up and said with a smile: "I heard that General Zhang is the head of the Eighteen Generals. Liu Jing has admired him for a long time. It is my honor to meet you today."

"Young Master Jing is overrated, Zhang Shuo is a rude person, please take care of Young Master Jing in the future."

"sure!"

Liu Jing patted him on the shoulder affectionately, and said with a hearty smile: "I hope that we will unite as one and build Jiangxia into a fortress of copper and iron, so that Jiangdong's army dare not go further west."

At this time, Huang Zhong stepped forward and said, "Zhang Shuo, we haven't seen each other for a long time."

When Zhang Shuo saw Huang Zhong, he was startled. When he first joined the army in Xiangyang ten years ago, Huang Zhong was already the chief general in his army. In case he dared not offend anyone, he hurriedly knelt down again, clasped his fists and said, "So the old general is here too, Zhang Shuo was rude, I hope the old general is not to blame."

Liu Jing next to him smiled faintly, this was the effect he wanted, he came today to seize military power, in order to be safe, Huang Zhong had to come with him.

Huang Zhong comforted Zhang Shuo with a few words, at this time Su Fei introduced other officials to Liu Jing one by one, and the crowd surrounded Liu Jing and went to Wuchang County.

...

Wuchang County is the largest county in Jiangxia, where the county seat is located. The city has a circumference of nearly [-] miles and a population of more than [-]. The nearby farmland is vast and commercially developed. It is an important grain-producing area in Jiangxia. In Wuchang County, he killed Huang Zu's nephew and formed an enmity with Huang Zu.

It stands to reason that Liu Jing should inspect the county seat and then go to the county government to talk to the officials, but this is not the case. After entering Wuchang County, Liu Jing went straight to the military camp. For him, the county seat is not important, the important thing is With the [-] troops in Su Fei's hands, he must use the fastest speed to firmly control the army in his hands.

The military camp is also in the county seat, located in the west of the city. It is a large military camp covering an area of ​​nearly a thousand acres. It used to be the camp of Huang Zuya's army, and the conditions in all aspects are very good. Now Su Fei's [-] troops are stationed here.

Now that Su Fei has recognized Liu Jing as the lord of Jiangxia, and has accepted the position of the county magistrate, the army in his hands will naturally be handed over to Liu Jing. In the big tent of the Chinese army, there are nearly a hundred famous generals, military marquises and village chiefs. Gathered together, everyone already knew that Liu Jing would take over the army today, and everyone felt uneasy. What is their fate in this Jiangxia storm?

Several people stood above the big tent, the original commander Su Fei, the new commander Liu Jing, Huang Zhong, Wei Yan and Gan Ning, and twenty elite soldiers on both sides.

The atmosphere in the big tent is a bit abnormal. This is not a formal transfer of power. They lack one of the most important things, which is Liu Biao's military talisman. Without Liu Biao's appointment and military power conferring, their transfer of power seems a bit The name is wrong and the words are not right.

"Generals!"

Su Fei raised his voice, and slowly said to everyone: "I think everyone already knows that Mr. Jing led Chaisang's army to defeat Sun Quan, and drove the Jiangdong army out of Jiangxia, which saved us from the tragic end of becoming prisoners of war and slaves, but , the war is not over, the Jiangdong Army did not return to Jiangdong, but stayed in Pengze Water Village, and will return to Jiangxia at any time, so all the defenders in Jiangxia must be united and have a unified command. For this reason, I decided to submit the army to Under the command of Mr. Jing, from now on, the five thousand troops in Wuchang County will be officially handed over to Mr. Jing."

After finishing speaking, he raised his sword high and presented it to Liu Jing. At this moment, someone suddenly said: "General Su, we have always been under the command of Huang Taishou, although Huang Taishou is no longer here, Perhaps as Young Master Jing, we can replace Governor Huang, but we shouldn't wait until the state shepherd is formally appointed, and then we will follow the command of Young Master Jing."

All eyes in the big tent turned to the speaker. This was a tall and thin military officer named Jiang Zhi, who was also a dental general and had a very good relationship with Zhang Shuo.

The two had already agreed to surrender to Liu Biao instead of Liu Jing. At this time, Zhang Shuo did not object for a long time, and Jiang Zhi couldn't bear it anymore and stood up.

They had the confidence, Jiang Zhi and Zhang Shuo had 3000 men combined, accounting for more than half of them. They knew very well that once Liu Jing seized the military power, they would be in danger.

Now that Jiang Zhi objected, Zhang Shuo was no longer silent, and he also said loudly: "I agree with General Jiang's opinion. Mr. Jing has a noble status, and we dare not offend him. However, the military power in Jingzhou belongs to the state shepherd. Now Mr. Jing is going to take over. For Huang Taishou's army, I think we should wait for the prefect's appointment, so that the name is justified, and the three armies will be respected."

There were whispers in the big tent, Liu Jing walked up to Jiang Zhi step by step, stared into his eyes, "You don't obey my military orders, do you?"

"Humble post doesn't mean that, it just says to wait for the state shepherd..."

Before Jiang Zhi finished speaking, Liu Jing suddenly drew out his saber and stabbed him in the chest. Jiang Zhi never dreamed that Liu Jing would kill someone. He couldn't dodge in time, and was stabbed in the chest by the knife. With a scream, he fell to the ground and died.

Zhang Shuo was taken aback. Just as he was about to run out of the tent, several soldiers rushed up, pinned him to the ground and tied him up.

Liu Jing then chopped off Jiang Zhi's head with a knife, and he held up the head high, shouting loudly: "Are there any generals in the tent who refuse to obey my Liu Jing's military order?"
