When Huo Jun turned his head, it turned out that it was his good friend Xiang Lang. Xiang Lang was about 40 years old. He was born in a wealthy family in Yicheng County. Jingzhou is said to be a good story.

Xiang Lang is also Kuai Yue's confidant. He was the first to serve as Kuai Yue's supervisor. Three years ago, he was appointed as the magistrate of Linju County. He returned to Xiangyang with Huo Jun.

It was also because of Kuai Yue's departure that he couldn't follow him, and because he had a bad relationship with Cai Mao, he rejected Cai Mao's appointment and lived in seclusion in Xiangyang City, often coming to sort out military affairs for Xiang Lang.

Today he specially came to look for Huo Jun, and happened to meet Huo Jun who was worried. Huo Jun was in a state of anxiety, when he suddenly saw Xiang Lang, he immediately invited Xiang Lang into the big tent as if he had caught a life-saving straw.

"Brother Ju Da came at such a coincidence, I am about to send someone to find you, please sit down!"

Xiang Lang sat down and said with a smile: "It's not a coincidence that I came here. Who can feel at ease when Jiang Xia's warship appears?"

Huo Jun sighed, "Jiang Xia's army sent five hundred warships. I don't think it's as simple as a demonstration to Cao Jun. I'm afraid Jiang Xia's army is going to capture Xiangyang."

"Don't Zhong Miao know that Liu Jing is already leading an army to attack Longzhong?"

Huo Jun was stunned, "Brother Ju Da is telling the truth?"

Xiang Lang nodded, "The news should be accurate. I heard that Xu Huang has sent people to Cao Ren for help three times, but Cao Ren was in doubt. On the one hand, it is difficult to explain to Cai Mao, and on the other hand, he also heard that the Nanjun army appeared in Ping'an Town. It got complicated."

Huo Jun pondered for a long time, then he suddenly raised his head and said to Xiang Lang: "Brother Ju Da, Jiang Xia is already the orthodox of Jingzhou. As a minister of Jingzhou, I shall be loyal to the new Jingzhou Mu. "

Xiang Lang smiled slightly, "If Zhongmiao has such intentions, I might as well contact Mr. Jing for you!"

Huo Jun was overjoyed, he quickly got up and bowed deeply, "Brother Juda will leave everything to you."

At this moment, a soldier rushed to the door out of breath and said, "General Huo, General Cao has led his army out of the city. General Cai Zhong asked General Huo to discuss."

Huo Jun and Xiang Lang glanced at each other, the situation was urgent, and there was not much time left for them.

. . . . . . . .

Although the arrival of the Nanjun army made Cao Ren feel lucky that he might be able to keep Xiangyang in the chaos, but Cao Ren finally could not bear the pressure of Cao Cao ordering him to withdraw the army and the urging of Xu Huang to send people to ask for support three times, and finally withdrew the army. .

In addition to Cao Ren's withdrawal, Cai Hao also led [-] Jingzhou troops to follow Cao Ren to withdraw. After all, the Cai family is the first family in Jingzhou.

Cai Zhong, Zhang Qu, Huo Jun, and [-] troops were left to guard Xiangyang City. Cao Cao then made Cai Zhong a Zhongwu Xiaowei and Yitinghou, and ordered him to guard Xiangyang with full authority.

On the head of Xiangyang City, Cai Zhong watched Cao Ren lead five thousand troops heading west, Cao Ren's words still echoed in his ears, "Grandpa can temporarily guard Xiangyang, and after a certain person helps Longzhong, the army will return together... '

Cai Zhong's eyes were full of contempt and sneer, did Cao Ren really think he was an idiot?To actually say such things, what Zhongwu Xiaowei and Yitinghou all saw her mother's ghost, this is clearly the posthumous title given to him.

"Brother, it's not that my younger brother is unkind, but you are unrighteous first!" Cai Zhong gritted his teeth for a while, his eyes filled with hatred. Compared with Cao Ren, he hated his elder brother Cai Mao more. Cao Ren was just following orders, but his elder brother betrayed himself.

At this time, Zhang Qu asked worriedly from the side: "Fourth brother, what should we do?"

Cai Zhong sneered, "Don't worry, there is no unparalleled road, find someone to invite Huo Jun, the three of us will add up!"

The two came to Cai Zhong's big tent, Cai Zhong took a booklet from the table, handed it to Zhang Qu and said with a smile: "This is the list of the current big households in Xiangyang City, a total of 380 five households, since they left, Then the moment when we get rich will come.”

Zhang Qu took the brochure and flipped through it. Although it was a chance to make money, he was more concerned about his retreat now. He threw the brochure on the table and sighed: "Tell me about the retreat! Where is the road?"

Cai Zhong smiled darkly, "Isn't Nanjun's army in Ping'an Town? If we sell Xiangyang to them, we can definitely sell them for a good price."

Zhang Qu's eyes suddenly lit up. He also knew that Cai Zhong would not surrender to Liu Jing, and it would be a good way to surrender to Nanjun. He suddenly remembered something, and frowned, "What about Huo Jun? Will he do anything with us?"

"Hmph! If he doesn't want to give him face, then kill him!" Cai Zhong said viciously.

At this time, a soldier reported from outside the tent: "General Huo is here!"

When the curtain was lifted, Huo Jun walked in quickly, "What happened?"

Although Cai Zhong was promoted to the rank of lieutenant and conferred the title of knighthood, he did not dare to condescend. After all, Huo Jun's army was his own subordinate, and it was not his turn to give orders to Cai Zhong.

Cai Zhong sighed and said, "Tell General Huo a bad news, now there are only three of us in Xiangyang City."

Huo Jun's eyes widened, and he pretended to be surprised: "This...what's going on?"

Zhang Qu interfaced next to him: "It's very simple, we have been abandoned, General Huo, let's discuss the retreat together!"

While talking, Zhang Qu covered the list of big households with a piece of paper. He glanced at Cai Zhong. Cai Zhong understood what he meant. Don't tell Huo Jun about this beforehand. If he disagrees, everyone will fall out. Will not cooperate.

Cai Zhong laughed again and said, "To be honest with General Huo, we plan to bargain with Nanjun. I wonder if General Huo is willing..."

Cai Zhong didn't finish his words, but the meaning behind it was self-evident. Huo Jun pondered for a long time, and sighed a long time: "I am from Zhijiang, Nanjun County. It is my dream to go back to my hometown."

Huo Jun saluted Cai Zhongshen again, "Huo Jun is willing to follow Cai Gong!"

. . . . . . . .

Tanxi is about six miles away from Xiangyang City. It is a medium-sized river about five or six feet wide. It originates from the Jingshan Mountains in the south of Xiangyang. .

Crossing Tanxi from Xiangyang to the west, there are three official roads, corresponding to three bridges, two or three miles apart. When Cao Ren led an army of [-] to cross Tanxi, the three bridges became deserted.

However, the desertedness of the three bridges was less than half an hour, and as a 3000-strong army arrived quickly, the three bridges across the river suddenly became lively.

The leading general is Su Zhi from Wuchang. Su Zhi is the younger brother of Su Fei. He was a general under Huang Zu in those days. Now he has been promoted to Sima of another department. He is a general under Gan Ning. He came from Xiangyang Wharf at the order of Gan Ning , demolished the Tanxi Bridge, and cut off Cao Jun's retreat back to Xiangyang.

"Destroy the bridge immediately!" Su Zhi ordered loudly.

The three thousand soldiers immediately divided into three groups and ran towards the three bridges. Su Zhi immediately fired his guns and watched the soldiers demolish the first bridge, looking up from time to time to look around.

The surrounding area was very deserted. Originally, this area was the densely populated Tanxi Township, which spread over seven or eight miles. After Cao Jun went south twice, most of the people in each village fled. There was not a single pedestrian in sight for a long time, let alone boats in the river.

At this moment, suddenly there was a commotion in the south, and countless soldiers were fleeing towards them. Su Zhi was startled, and shouted loudly: "What happened?"

"General Su, an army is coming from the south!"

Su Zhi was taken aback, put up the curtain and looked to the south, only to see the dust flying, and an army was rushing towards him. After a while, he rushed to his eyes. Kuan.

Guan Yu's horse was extremely fast, and rushed towards Su Zhi like a gust of wind. Su Zhi was unable to parry. Guan Yu raised his knife and fell, and chopped off the head of the horse under Su Zhi's crotch. The horse fell to the ground tragically, throwing Su Zhi up He fell to the ground and rolled over a foot away.

Su Zhi was so shocked that his face turned pale, and he stared at Guan Yu blankly. Guan Yu pointed at him with the tip of his knife and shouted sharply: "I won't kill you, you can retreat quickly!"

Su Zhi suddenly realized that the general in front of him turned out to be the world-famous Guan Yu Guan Yunchang. A cold sweat broke out on his back, and he ran away without saying a word. The rest of the Jiangxia soldiers followed him and fled northward.

Nanjun soldiers shouted to pursue, but Guan Yu raised his hand to stop him. He was ordered by Zhuge Liang to lead [-] troops to seize the bridge of Tanxi and prevent Cao Jun and Jiang Xia Jun from Longzhong from returning to Xiangyang.

But Guan Yu is not stupid, he knows that he must not form a life-and-death enmity with Liu Jing now, he restrained the murderous intention in his heart, and spared the life of General Jiang Xia.

But on the other hand, Guan Yu also admired the military division's ability to predict the enemy like a god, and Jiang Xia's army really came to cut off Cao's retreat.

Guan Yu looked at the bridges, two of them had been demolished, and there was one left. He was a little worried, what if Cao Jun or Jiang Xia Jun really retreated from Longzhong again?Should the bridge be demolished?

At this time, Guan Yu's general Zhou Cang said: "General, maybe Cao Jun will not come back, but Jiang Xia's army is very likely to come back, let's tear it down!"

Guan Yu nodded. From the perspective of the overall situation, the possibility of Cao Ren's return is indeed very small, but Cao Jun retreated, and Liu Jing would definitely return. He waved his sword and said, "Destroy the bridge!"

Guan Yu said to Zhou Cang again: "You can lead an army of one thousand to ambush on both sides of the bridge. If Jiang Xia's army returns, you can ambush them. At the same time, you must notify me immediately."

"The last will obey!"

Guan Yu finished the arrangements, and shouted to the remaining [-] soldiers: "Form up! March to Xiangyang City."

Zhuge Liang's strategy is now very obvious. Let Liu Jing face Cao Jun in Longzhong, and he will come to take Xiangyang and take advantage of the fisherman.
