Soldiers come to the world

Chapter 232 Sending troops to counterattack

Liu Jing stared at Li Fu sharply, and Li Fu's last words revealed his flaws, which made Liu Jing suddenly realize that this man came all the way to Jingzhou not to join the new lord, but to do everything possible to revive the Yuan family.

It is true that Liu Jing admitted that he did have eyesight and saw the opportunity for Cao Cao's Eastern Expedition, but Liu Jing did not like to be someone else's dowry.

Li Fu's complexion changed, as if he had been hit by a sap stick. He couldn't say a word for a while, a wry smile slowly appeared on his face, and he sighed: "I admit that I have selfish intentions, and I hope Yuan Shi can take advantage of the troubled times to recover. However, this is also helpful to the envoy. Once Cao Cao eliminates the pressure in the rear, the next step will be a large-scale southward expedition. Under the overthrow of the nest, Jiang Xiaan will die? Please think twice!"

Liu Jing snorted coldly, "I know what to do, but I, Liu Jing, cannot be deceived and used by others, come here!"

Liu Jing yelled, and several soldiers walked in quickly. At this time, Liu Jing restrained his dissatisfaction, and said lightly: "Give Master Li Bo 50 taels of gold, and send him out of the house!"

Li Fu took a deep look at Liu Jing, and finally sighed: "Although I have received courtesy from the envoy, but I have no future, what can I do!"

Liu Jing didn't say a word, watching with a gloomy face that Li Fu was invited out by the soldiers, and he was left alone in the room, Liu Jing was quite disturbed.

At this moment, there is a kind of anxiety in his heart before the storm. He is not a spectator, who can sit on a tall building and enjoy the magnificence of the storm. He is a participant, and will play games in the coming storm, just like a bird in Swallows anxiously looking for habitat in the sweltering air.

In this storm, how can he get the best benefit?Just like an extremely dry land, the storm is not terrible, but rather exciting. When the heavy rain pours down, the land can drink the nectar bestowed by God.

Liu Jing closed his eyes and pondered, should he attack Runan and Yingchuan?He stood in front of the map on the wall with his hands behind his back, thinking for a long time without saying a word.

At this time, Tao Zhan walked in quickly with a bowl of hot ginseng soup. She didn't disturb her husband, but gently put the ginseng soup on the table. Liu Jing was startled, looked back at his wife, and said apologetically: " There are too many things to do, and I don't have time to spend with you."

Tao Zhan smiled sweetly, and brought the ginseng soup to her husband again, "Drink it while it's hot, and I'll talk to you again."

Liu Jing took the ginseng soup and gulped it down. Seeing that he drank it happily, Tao Zhan took his hand and blushed before he could speak. Liu Jing understood, sat down, and put the She sat in her arms, hugged her waist and said with a smile, "Tell me! What's the matter?"

Tao Zhan blushed even more, and whispered in Liu Jing's ear, "I counted the days, just these two days."

The smile on Liu Jing's face became ambiguous, and he deliberately asked, "What happened these two days?"

Tao Zhan bit his lip lightly with his white teeth, and pinched his arm, "You ask the question knowingly!"

Liu Jing and his wife have been separated for a month, and his heart has already warmed up, especially when he hugged his wife's plump and attractive body, how could he hold it, Liu Jing copied Tao Zhan's leg, hugged her horizontally, and said with a smile: " Let's go! Let's make people."

Tao Zhan suddenly remembered that this was an outside study room, there would be maids to clean it, and they would look at their indecent appearance, and her husband's voice was too loud, lest others would hear it, so anxious that she beat Liu Jing's shoulder with her small pink fist , "Others will see, put me down!"

Liu Jing laughed, put her down, took her hand, and ran quickly to the inner house.

. . . . . . . .

Yicheng County is located in the south of Xiangyang, on the west bank of the Han River, close to Jiangxia. It is an important strategic fulcrum of Xiangyang County. At the same time, it is also a large county with a large population. Prosperous, it is the second largest port on the Han River after Fancheng.

However, Yicheng is important to Jingzhou not because of its trade or agriculture, but because it is the garrison of Jingzhou North Water Army. There are three water armies in Jingzhou, one is the North Water Army located in Yicheng County, one It is the Nanshui Army located in Jiangling County, and the Jiangxia Navy.

When the South Water Army was controlled by Liu Qi and the Jiang Xia Navy belonged to Liu Jing, the North Water Army in Jingzhou became very important. The current captain of the North Water Army is Zhang Yun. It has been three years since he came back to take charge of the water army at the end of the eighth year of Jian'an many.

Perhaps it was because of a demotion experience that he learned a lesson. He became loyal and faithfully carried out Liu Biao's orders. Three years ago, Liu Biao did not allow him to intercept ships going to and from Jiangxia. The order was executed.

In the past three years, no matter whether it was the merchant ships of the Tao family or the official ships of Jiangxia, they had been unimpeded on the Han River. None of the merchant ships in Yicheng County encountered any trouble.

But as Liu Biao became seriously ill, the situation in Jingzhou immediately became complicated. Zhang Yun began to think about it. He began to conspire with Cai Mao to fully control the military power in Xiangyang.

As early as many years ago, Zhang Yun had a close relationship with Cai Mao because of Kuai Yue, a common political enemy. This relationship offended Liu Biao, and Zhang Yun was demoted because of this. A new alliance was formed.

And last year, under Huang She's instigation, Zhang Yun secretly surrendered to Cao Cao, and was promised by Cao Cao to be the Marquis of Ting and the Commander of the Navy. Interestingly, Zhang Yun didn't know that Cai Mao had also surrendered to Cao Cao, but Cai Mao also didn't know that Zhang Yun was instigated by Huang She.

Just half a month ago, Zhang Yun came to Xiangyang to visit Liu Biao. During this period, he and Cai Mao secretly discussed, provoked new conflicts between Liu Jing and Xiangyang, and forced Liu Jing to send troops in order to seize Liu Jing's pretext for rebellion while the state was seriously ill.

Ten days ago, Zhang Yun intercepted a merchant fleet of the Tao family, which was escorted by the Jiangxia Navy. Liu Jing couldn't bear it when it came to warships.

But Zhang Yun knew very well that this kind of merchant fleet must be transporting important supplies. Sure enough, he intercepted fifteen extremely valuable stallions from the Western Regions, which surprised Zhang Yun. Ma hid it privately and took it for himself.

In the Navy Yamen, Cai Mao sent his eldest son, Cai Yi, to Yicheng County. With a serious face, Cai Yi told Cai Mao what happened in Xiangyang, and Liu Jing's counterattack had already begun.

"Uncle Shi, in recent days, there have been rumors in the streets and alleys of Xiangyang that the boats transporting Jiangxia's military rations were ambushed by the Jingzhou navy, and hundreds of Jiangxia soldiers were killed. Not only that, Kuai Yue also handed over a letter of complaint from Liu Jing. Gave it to the State Shepherd."

The corner of Zhang Yun's mouth twitched, revealing a disdainful smile, his uncle is already insane, so what's the use of giving him a letter?He laughed in a mocking tone: "The state pastor must take it very seriously! He must be furious and want to dismiss me, right?"

Cai Yi shook his head, "Of course the state shepherd doesn't know anything, but Kuai Yue didn't mean it. He launched an official petition, condemning Uncle Shi for intercepting Jiang Xia's merchant ship and killing Jiang Xia's soldiers. Dozens of Kuai party members signed their names one after another. It has a great influence in Xiangyang official circles, and almost everyone is talking about my father and Uncle Shi attacking Liu Jing."

Only then did Zhang Yun realize that in this way, he had made a mistake first. If Liu Jing sent troops to fight back, it would be retaliation for his robbery of the ship. It's tantamount to failure, this Liu Jing is very resourceful.

"Then what's your father's attitude?" Zhang Yun frowned and asked.

"Father is very worried that Liu Jing's revenge is just an excuse, and he actually took the opportunity to attack Xiangyang."

Zhang Yun was taken aback, "You mean to say that we were self-defeating in this matter and gave Liu Jing an excuse to send troops."

Cai Yi showed embarrassment on his face, and nodded, "That's right. My father was worried about the safety of the Jingzhou navy, so he ordered my nephew to deliver the letter. Uncle Shi, please be careful."

Zhang Yun sneered and said: "I think your father was scared by Liu Jing's beating. It's good for him to send troops. I'm waiting for him!"

As soon as Zhang Yun finished speaking, some soldiers rushed over and reported in a hurry: "Qi Lieutenant, Jiangxia Navy warships were found on the river, there are hundreds of them, and they are coming to Yicheng County! "

Zhang Yun hurriedly stood up, and Liu Jing really came.

. . . . . . . .

On the big river, three hundred Jiangxia warships lined up in three lines, with sails like clouds and thousands of masts like forests, sailing murderously towards Yicheng County. On the bow of the main ship, Liu Jing was dressed in armor and held a Wenhou halberd, majestic and majestic. , he stared sharply at the northern river, waiting for the Jingzhou navy warship to appear.

In this battle, he was no longer just trying to get the stallion back. He wanted to take this opportunity to defeat the Jingzhou navy and occupy Yicheng County.

Beside him is Li Jun, the Sima of the other branch of the Navy, who followed him at the Youjiao Office for five or six years, and is now in charge of the Wuchang Navy, Liu Jing's right-hand man.

Li Jun is tall and burly, with a slender face and a long scar on his left cheek, which is a commemoration of the Chaisang War that year.

He is stern and upright in command of the army. Once a soldier breaks the military rules, he will never tolerate it. Even Liu Jing's intercession is useless. All the soldiers are afraid of him. In addition to his stern face that never sees a smile, the soldiers call him behind their backs. Cold-faced tiger.

Li Jun is not naturally stern, but he has a heavy burden in his heart. Although he has not touched that burden for many years, he knows that sooner or later, that burden will be lifted.

"Li Sima, what do you think we will win or lose in this battle?" Liu Jing asked calmly from the side.

Li Jun pondered for a moment and said: "I would like to report to the prefect, according to the observations of the Jingzhou navy in the past few years, we won this battle [-]-[-], Zhang Yun is good at training the navy, and he is quite organized.

Moreover, the opponent has [-] sailors, far surpassing us in strength. If we fight recklessly, do we have an advantage in addition to fire oil?All others are at a disadvantage.

But Zhang Yun has always been ungrateful and ruthless, and treated his soldiers harshly. His soldiers may not be willing to work for him. His subordinates feel that this is the key to our victory. "

Liu Jing smiled and nodded, "Soldiers are deceitful! Fighting recklessly is a last resort. The army I have worked so hard to train is not for internal strife in Jingzhou."

At this moment, the watchman on the mast suddenly shouted: "An enemy ship is found ahead!"

Liu Jing looked into the distance and found that there were dense black spots on the surface of the river, and the Jingzhou navy came out.

He sneered, turned to Li Jun and said, "Follow my plan!"
