The Three Kingdoms of the Lu family

Chapter 221 Allied with Liu Biao

It was just a threat, which made Shen's obediently leave the city to surrender and occupy Shangyong. This made Lu Yi feel very happy. Go to the junction of Xicheng and Shangyong, and withdraw all the soldiers and horses into Shangyong City.

At the same time, he also sent an order to Gan Ning, informing the navy of the great news, and took out half of the treasury money and food in Shangyong City to reward Gan Ning's subordinates.

If Gan Ning's water army hadn't fought bravely, defeated Huang Zu, and firmly controlled Hanshui, it would have been impossible for him to rush to Xicheng so quickly, let alone block the news and open the gate of Shangyong city by fraud.

Of course, Lu Yi would not forget Jia Xu, the second most important hero in this matter. If Jia Xu hadn't offered advice, he would have attacked Shangyong in a precise manner, but he might not have been able to capture it.

When Jia Xu came to Shangyong with the army, upon hearing the news of Lu Yi, he immediately took all the civil and military personnel in the city, together with the surrendered Shen brothers, out of the city ten miles to welcome Jia Xu into the city.

Immediately, Lu Yi held a big banquet, picked up the jug himself, filled a glass of warm wine for Jia Xu, and said in a deep voice: "Military Master, Wen He should be the first to win Shangyong this time. I respect this glass." Military division! Please!"

"Yes, the military advisor really has a brilliant strategy, I admire it, please!" With Lu Yi as the leader, Zhao Yun, Zang Ba, Zhang Xiu and other generals all responded one after another and toasted at the same time, the atmosphere was extremely enthusiastic.

After drinking a glass of wine, Lu Yi personally filled another glass for Liu Ye, and said in a deep voice, "Zi Yang, if you hadn't advised me in Lujiang, and Lu Yifa has come to this day, I respect you for this glass! Please!"

"Master Liu, you must drink this glass of wine!" Zhao Yun and the others, all smiling, toasted again and looked at Liu Ye. [

Liu Ye is not good at drinking, but at this time, he felt the sincerity of everyone, and was moved in his heart, so he boldly picked up the wine cup, raised his head and drank it down.

The atmosphere at the scene became more and more enthusiastic.

Only the Shen brothers felt that something was wrong, and they couldn't help but carefully probed: "General Lu, I don't know what happened to General Xiao Huang?"

General Xiao Huang, of course he was talking about Huang She.

After hearing Shen Dan's words, the generals of the Bingzhou army couldn't bear it any longer and burst out laughing.Lu Yi couldn't help laughing, he choked on his wine and said, "You said that Huang She's soldiers and horses were still confronting me at fifty li yesterday. After hearing that I came to Shangyong, he might come here immediately!"

"Wh...what! Didn't you all wipe out General Xiao Huang's army?" The Shen brothers were even more puzzled, and couldn't help asking.

"Ha ha ha ha……"

After hearing what the Shen brothers said, everyone laughed even more. It was still Lu Yi who couldn't bear it, so he revealed the mystery and said, "Prefect Shen, you have been deceived by us. In fact, we didn't fight Huang She at all. His [-] The army is completely lost!"

"This is impossible. We clearly saw that many prisoners were escorted outside the city, and the fleeing people also said the same!" Shen Yi asked in a hurry.

Lu Yi shook his head, stopped laughing and said, "Those captives are just soldiers in disguise from our army, and we drove the common people here too!"

"What about Mr. Huang, why is he with you?" Shen Dan's face turned red, as if he had grasped the last undeniable clue.

Everyone laughed again, and saw Liu Ye clapped his hands and said with a smile: "Prefect Shen doesn't know something, my lord has already decided to unite with Liu Jingzhou, that's why I invited Mr. Huang to talk about it."

"It turned out to be like this! We were fooled!" Hearing Liu Ye's words, the Shen brothers felt ashamed and ashamed, wishing they could find a crack in the ground.

It was still Lu Yi who felt a little sorry, so he hurriedly stood up, poured wine for the two Shen brothers, and apologized: "It was Lu Yi who lied to you two, and I apologize to you. If you miss the old master, I can let you go back. Go to Jingzhou!"

The Shen brothers smiled wryly. Now that they are going back, do they dare to go back? Even if Liu Biao doesn't care about it, they have no face to go back. [

........................

The news of the surrender of the Shen brothers shocked the entire Jingzhou like a whirlwind. This has never happened since Liu Biao settled in Jingzhou.

In the west city, when Huang She heard that Lu Yi was withdrawing his troops and went to Shangyong, he thought that Lu Yi would take the opportunity to attack Shangyong, so he rushed towards Shangyong as if desperately.

When Huang She rushed to Shangyong exhausted, he found that the prefect Shen Dan had surrendered directly. Huang She yelled angrily and vomited blood, and almost died of anger.

When the news spread to Xiangyang, Liu Biao, the shepherd of Jingzhou, was so angry that he almost went crazy. He yelled in front of the ministers: "Shen Dan, the traitor, the old man's army is just around the corner, you wait for An Dare to surrender! Come on, send me Shen Dan's family members are all arrested, and this old man will punish his nine clans!"

No wonder Liu Biao was so angry, Huang Zu was slightly defeated with his [-] troops, the main force was not damaged, and Huang She's army was even on the border of Shangyong, but Shen Dan actually surrendered, this is a slap in the face of Liu Biao.

It was the Kuai brothers who came forward and really comforted Liu Biao, which made Liu Biao calm down, but Liu Biao's eyes were still staring at the crowd as if he was going to eat people, and said: "Everyone, now Lu thief is attacking me. Frontier, whoever is willing to lead the army, help me retake Shangyong!"

"Here," the Kuai brothers knew that Liu Biao was still angry, and were about to continue persuading him.

At this moment, there was a sound of footsteps outside, and Huang Chengyan strode in. Seeing Liu Biao's expression was not right, he hurriedly asked, "Jing Sheng, what happened?"

Seeing Huang Chengyan coming, Liu Biao didn't dare to neglect, he hurriedly fought against Huang Chengyan, then took his seat, and said strangely: "Brother Huang, you are not in Huang She's army, why did you go back to Xiangyang?"

Huang Chengyan smiled wryly, shook his head and said, "Don't mention it, I'm here for Lu Yi, he asked me to pass a message to you, Hanzhong is willing to form an alliance with Jingzhou!"

"Lv thief, it's not enough to take me away from the superior, so why are you here to humiliate me!" Hearing this, Liu Biao became even angrier, and the suppressed anger surged up again.

Huang Chengyan's expression was slightly surprised, and he was even a little guilty, but when he thought that he was married to Lu Yi now, he still had to bite the bullet and excuse Lu Yi: "Jing Sheng, although Lu Zicheng is a bit too much, after all, our focus should be on Lu Yi. At Jiangxia, Sun Ce is still attacking Jiangxia, if Jiangxia is captured, the whole south of Jingnan will be threatened by Sun Ce!"

"What about the Bingzhou Army? Don't worry?" Liu Biao hesitated, but he also knew that Huang Chengyan was telling the truth. He was not afraid of the Bingzhou Army, but he was inexplicably afraid of Sun Ce.

In the era of Sun Jian, the Sun family had been from Jiangdong to the city of Xiangyang.How could Liu Biao not be afraid.

Seeing Liu Biao hesitate, Huang Chengyan couldn't help laughing: "Of course I won't ignore it. I have a plan, which is to bring disaster to the east! Now that Lu Yi occupies Shangyong, why doesn't Jing Sheng make an alliance with that Lu Yi, and Shangyong It’s so close to Nanyang, and the Bingzhou army is good at fighting, once the Central Plains wants to attack Jingzhou, they must first remove Shangyong, otherwise, who would dare to attack Jingzhou with confidence?”

"But the old man is afraid that this person will be difficult to control!" Liu Biao was a little moved when he heard it. His ruling center was in the Jiangling area of ​​Xiangyang, and he didn't pay much attention to places close to the Central Plains, such as Shangyong Mountain City and Wan City.

This is also the reason why Liu Biao not only did not attack Nanyang when Zhang Xiu occupied Nanyang, but also formed an alliance with Zhang Xiu.Now Huang Chengyan's strategy can be said to be to follow Zhang Xiu's example and let the Bingzhou Army come to guard the north gate of Xiangyang to prevent the Central Plains from advancing.

Liu Biao was naturally interested, and couldn't help looking at the Kuai brothers.

Although I don't know why Huang Chengyan suddenly wants to intervene in Jingzhou's government affairs, but the four great families in Xiangyang have always advanced and retreated together. As fierce as a tiger, Lu Yi is as fierce as a wolf, and it is still difficult for us to restrain the tiger, if we continue to fight with Lu Yi, I am afraid that our land in Jingzhou will become another Central Plains!"

"Yes, my lord, Jiangxia is the root! There must be no loss! Shangyong is a mountain city, and Fatun gathers heavy troops. Lu Yi has a big enmity with Cao Cao, and he has an enemy with Yuan Shao. Now Yuan Cao is constantly at odds. Seeing that the big battle is imminent No matter who wins and who loses, the next goal is hard to guarantee that the spearhead will not be pointed at Jingzhou, so why not let the wolf of the Bingzhou Army contain Cao Yuan?"

Kuai Yue also spoke out, analyzing for Liu Biao, among them, there is naturally a bond with the big family in Xiangyang, and more, but he also thinks Huang Chengyan's proposal is good.

In Nanyang in the past, because of Zhang Xiu, I don’t know how many wars have been blocked for Jingzhou. With this successful precedent, Kuai Yue is naturally interested in Huang Chengyan’s proposal.

Liu Biao said the same thing when he saw the Kuai brothers, and he began to pay attention to Huang Chengyan's proposal in his heart.However, he was still a bit brooding, and said angrily: "Even so, in Lu Yi's army, there are many traitors from Jingzhou, if I don't punish them severely, what prestige will there be!"

Huang Chengyan laughed when he heard the words, shook his head and said, "If Jing Sheng cares about this matter, why don't you write a letter to blame him? If Lu Yi is sensible, he should personally apologize to you, and then Jing Sheng will make it appear that I am Jingzhou Are you magnanimous? Besides, Jiangxia is fighting fiercely. If we continue to fight with Lu Yi, Sun Ce will definitely not send envoys to form an alliance with Lu Yi, and then use all our troops to capture Jingzhou. When the time comes, we will be attacked, and Jingzhou will be in danger!"

As soon as Huang Chengyan's words came out.Among the people sitting, many people's faces changed, because this may not be the case.And once the Lu Sun alliance, it will be a nightmare for Jingzhou!

Liu Biao was frightened immediately, pondered for a while, then nodded with difficulty and said, "What Brother Huang said is unreasonable, but how can I believe that Lu Yi will help me stop the troops from the Central Plains?"

At this time, in fact, Liu Biao's heart was already distracted by desire. Huang Chengyan was an old man, so why couldn't he see it, so he immediately smiled wryly, pointed to himself and said, "Jing Sheng, why do you think I want to help that Lu?" It’s true that this son has already done something disdainful to my daughter, but fortunately he has already agreed to marry my daughter, so I’m here to discuss the truce with you!”

"What, Lu Yi actually did something disdainful to Huang Gong's daughter!" The Kuai brothers suddenly looked weird, and Cai Hao, who was silent beside him, admired Lu Yi for no reason.

Such an ugly girl can do anything, and the Bingzhou Army is really strong!

For a while, all the civic officials sitting there looked strange, and the generals were all admiring.

Liu Biao finally breathed a sigh of relief, he and Huang's family are related by marriage, Lu Yi married Huang Yueying, so he is also related to him, which is much more reliable than Zhang Xiu.

Immediately, Liu Biao became suspicious again, and wrote a letter of willingness to form an alliance with his own hand, and then asked Huang Chengyan to take him to Shangyong to discuss the details of the alliance with Lu Yi.

Huang Chengyan didn't dare to be negligent, he was afraid of long nights and dreams, so he rode a little donkey and headed towards Shangyong. Liu Biao also ordered four people to send a message to Huang Zu and Huang She, and the two sides began to strike.

In Shangyong City, Lu Yi naturally discovered the change of Huang She's army outside the city, and news of Huang Zu's request for a truce also came from Gan Ning.

Even so, Lu Yi still did not relax his vigilance, but just removed the barracks outside Shangyong City.As for the Han River, Gan Ning was still fully on guard.

After all, only by controlling Hanshui, his soldiers and horses can truly advance and retreat smoothly.

This situation lasted until the third day. On this day, Huang Chengyan personally brought Liu Biao's letter to Shangyong to discuss the peace talks.

As my future father-in-law, I still have to put on a good posture.Lu Yi hurriedly led his people and went out of the city for thirty miles to meet Huang Chengyan in person.

At the same time, they even ordered people to build a huge earthen platform on the high ground outside the city, on which were placed all kinds of things used for forming alliances.It's just that Lu Yi regrets that Liu Biao did not come to Shangyong because the Jiangxia war became more and more fierce.

He just sent Jingzhou Biejia Han Song to form an alliance with him.Even so, Lu Yi was very happy. After all, after forming an alliance with Jingzhou, he didn't have to worry about threats to the east of Hanzhong.

As for Liu Biao's request to block the Central Plains soldiers from going south, Lu Yi naturally readily agreed. Anyway, even if Liu Biao didn't say anything, he would be incompatible with Cao Cao. If he could stop Cao Cao's footsteps, he would naturally not lag behind.

In the next three days, Huang She's army all retreated. , Huang Zu's navy was stationed in Fangling, and Huang Zu became the prefect of Fangling, responsible for defending Shangyong.

And Lu Yi also merged Xicheng and Shangyong to form a new Shangyong County. He appointed Yang Hong as the prefect of Shangyong, Gan Ning as the commander of the navy, and coordinated the guarding of Shangyong. He also ordered Hu Che'er to lead a thousand cavalry. Four thousand infantry, guarding Shangyong, are responsible for eliminating the remnants of the Five Dou Rice Sect in Shangyong.

Then, when Lu Yi was carrying out a big purge in Shangyong, in the land of Xuchang, an event that shocked the government and the public happened...
