    Chapter 196: Survival through cracks

    (Thanks to Mo Yankai for the reward, as well as the monthly tickets and comments from several brothers, I will save the manuscript today and break it out tomorrow)

    Lend me something?

    Cao Ren felt a chill in his heart. There was no doubt that the thing Liu Feng wanted to borrow from him was his head.

    For a moment, Cao Ren felt desolate in his heart.

    Throughout the ages, how many times have we not feared the dead?  Although Cao Ren spoke generously and looked down upon death, in his subconscious, the fear of death was an innate instinct.

    I thought that even though I was captured, Liu Feng was afraid of Cao Cao's power. Even if he didn't plan to release him, he would not dare to do anything to him.

    But now, not only does this kid not take Liu Bei seriously, even Cao Cao, who has become the hero of all the world's heroes, treats him as nothing, and actually wants to take his own life.

    When Cao Ren was unexpectedly surprised, he felt deep fear in his heart.

    However, as the first general of the Cao family, his noble and special status determines that anyone can bow his head under the threat of death, but not his surname Cao.

    Now that Liu Feng was about to kill him, Cao Ren could only suppress the fear in his heart, raised his head and snorted coldly, saying disdainfully: "Kill if you want, no need to say more."

    It turns out he thought I was going to kill him, hehe.

    "General Cao is indeed a man. Liu admires him. Well, I won't be polite."

    Liu Feng sneered, turned around and strode out of the room. With a wave of his hand, several sturdy military men who had been waiting outside came out with a roar.

    Liu Feng did not look back, he just stood at the foot of the steps with his hands behind his hands. After a moment, he heard a howl like a slaughtering pig coming from the room behind him.

    "Cao Ren, Cao Ren, you were not in my plan originally. Who made you greedy? You asked for it all. Don't blame me for being cruel."

    In the afternoon of that day, Liu Feng met Pang Tong who had hurriedly crossed the river from the south bank in the newly established camp outside Jiangling City.

    "My lord, congratulations to you for capturing Cao Zixiao, the number one general of the Cao family, alive. This is really an unexpected surprise."

    Pang Tong's joy is self-evident. Cao Ren himself intervened in the Battle of Jingzhou and sent troops to attack Jiangling. He was not surprised, and he planned a night attack on Cao's army for Liu Feng. His original purpose was to force Cao's army back to resolve the Jiangling War.  It was indeed an unexpected surprise that Liu Feng was able to capture Cao Ren alive.

    "My husband also said that this was purely an unexpected surprise. In fact, during the attack that night, if Cao Ren had realized his interest and left early, he would have fled back to Xiangyang in embarrassment. Unfortunately, this person underestimated me too much."  Liu Feng was humble, but also somewhat arrogant.

    Pang Tong said with a smile: "My lord is able to soar to the sky, largely because he lies dormant in the wild, so that all the princes do not know my lord's strength. Now that my lord has killed Guan Yu and captured Cao Ren, he has gained a great reputation. I will never think of him as a weakling in the future."  It will be difficult to deceive the world."

    Liu Feng smiled faintly: "Sir, I have long said that the weak have the weak's way of survival, and the strong have the strong's attitude towards doing things. There is no need to worry about the future."

    Pang Tong nodded slightly, feeling pleased with Liu Feng's confidence. Suddenly, he suddenly thought of something.

    "My lord, Cao Ren is a treasure. If you don't make good use of it, how can you be worthy of this gift? I wonder if your lord has any ideas?" There was a mystery in Pang Tong's words.

    Liu Feng smiled secretly and revealed his plan.

    Pang Tong smiled knowingly. It was obvious that Liu Feng's plan was exactly what he wanted, and he said: "The key to this plan is time. Since the lord has made a decision, I think it should be implemented immediately."

    Liu Baofou showed his confidence, "This time we defeated Cao Ren and captured more than 700 war horses. Together with the horses left by Guan Yu in Jiangling City, we can collect at least more than 1,000 horses. I have ordered the mobilization of all available war horses this morning.  Once that¡¯s done, take action.¡±

    Liu Feng's decisiveness made Pang Tong even more pleased. He took a long breath, stroked his short beard and said: "There are many variables in the affairs of the world. How could Cao Cao become the overlord of the north if he had not been lucky?  It seems that this luck has begun to change, haha¡ª¡ª"

    ¡­¡­¡­¡­

    Yizhou, Bajun, under Jiangzhou City.

    Since Liu Bei and Liu Zhang fell out last year, and since Baishui Pass sent troops southward, they have been on a roll.

    Liu Zhang first sent Liu Huang, Lengba, Zhang Ren, Deng Xian, Wu Yi and other generals to lead their troops north to resist Liu Bei, but they were all defeated by Liu Bei's army. Later, he ordered Li Yan and Fei Guandu to lead the Mianzhu armies to fight against Liu Bei.  Li Yan, Fei Guan, Wu Yi and others all led their troops to surrender to Liu Bei.

    This summer, Liu Bei¡¯s army surrounded Luocheng, the last barrier to the north of Chengdu, butHere, Liu Bei encountered strong resistance from Zhang Ren, a famous general in Shu, and he was unable to siege the city for half a year.

    Yizhou originally had more than ten counties and counties, including Shu County, Ba County, Brazil, Badong, Guanghan, Ziluo, and Jiangyang. The situation at this time was that although Liu Bei fought continuously along the way, the area he occupied was no more than the northern part of Yizhou and  Although Zilu County, which borders Hanzhong, is only a hundred miles away from Chengdu, most of the counties in Yizhou are still under Liu Zhang's control.

    Luocheng could not be captured for a long time, and if it dragged on for a long time, the final situation would only be unfavorable to Liu Bei. Therefore, at Xu Shu's suggestion, Liu Bei had to order Zhuge Liang and Zhao Yun to lead their troops into Shu, and attack Badong, Bajun, and  Jiangyang and other counties opened up direct connections between Liu Bei's main force and Jingzhou, and surrounded Chengdu from the north and east.

    After Zhuge Liang and Zhao Yun led their troops into Shu, they marched smoothly and easily captured Badong County, which is adjacent to Jingzhou. Then tens of thousands of troops marched westward along the Yangtze River and surrounded Jiangzhou, the seat of Bajun.

    In Jiangzhou, Zhuge Liang's East Route Army encountered stubborn resistance from Yan Yan, the governor of Bajun, and the army besieged the city for several months without being able to disembark.

    At this time, in the Chinese army tent, Zhuge Liang was discussing with Zhao Yun and other generals how to defeat Jiangzhou. Just halfway through the meeting, the soldiers presented an urgent message of 100,000 yuan from Jingzhou.

    When Zhuge Liang unfolded the silk book, his face, which had always been calm and calm, could not help but feel a look of surprise at this moment.

    Mr. Wolong, since he came out of the mountain, even in the most critical moments, has always looked calm and calm, unafraid in the face of danger. The generals on the left and right have never seen such an expression on his face. Everyone's heart immediately cast a shadow.  , guessing that something must have happened in Jingzhou.

    "Everyone, Liu Feng raided Nanjun, Gong'an and Jiangling have all fallen."

    Zhuge Liang announced the news to the generals in a solemn tone, as if the sky was falling. Everyone's faces were immediately filled with panic.

    "Military advisor, Jiangling City and Public Security Bureau are both fortified cities with tens of thousands of soldiers and Yunchang personally guarding them. How could they fall so easily?" Zhao Yun was the first to recover from the shock and asked suspiciously.  .

    "See for yourselves."

    Zhuge Liang showed the Dao silk book to all the generals. After everyone watched and circulated it, they suddenly realized it.

    Zhuge Liang sighed softly: "Before I left, I told Yunchang that no matter what happened, he was not allowed to go to Jiangling without permission. But in the end, he still fell into someone else's plan to lure the tiger away from the mountain. It was really a wrong move and everything was lost."  "

    Zhuge Liang's tone contained endless regret, and all the generals sighed.

    Zhao Yun frowned and said: "Jingzhou is the foundation of our army. If it falls, the consequences will be disastrous. Military advisor, should we return to the army immediately to take it back?"

    Zhuge Liang stood up, walked around for a few steps, shook his feather fan and said, "When Nanjun fell, all our military family members fell into Liu Feng's hands. If he led his army back east, Liu Feng would only need to use these family members as hostages and use some tricks."  , our army will surely collapse without a fight."

    This person stood up and said: "Although the military advisor's concern is justified, don't forget that the civil and military officials, including the military advisor, their families and soldiers are all in Jingzhou. Moreover, these people all have industrial interests in Jingzhou.  How can we just abandon it so easily? If all the officials gather together to demand the recapture of Jingzhou, let alone the military advisors, even if the lord is afraid, they will not be able to stop it."

    The person who made the suggestion was working for Jiang Wan.

    Zhuge Liang didn¡¯t know Jiang Wan¡¯s concerns.

    Liu Bei's team is basically composed of Jingxiang scholars. For a person like him who has a big picture view, he will inevitably feel pain and anxiety after learning that a whole family has fallen into the hands of Liu Feng, not to mention other Jingzhou borrowed money.  Scholars.

    If Yizhou has been captured now and the officials have a place to stay, then this matter will be easier to deal with, but Liu Feng is smart and chooses to launch a surprise attack at this juncture. If this matter cannot be dealt with correctly,  Not to mention the failure to capture Yizhou, the entire Liu Bei Group, which was caught between Jingzhou and Yizhou and was in a dilemma, might fall apart due to the fall of Jingzhou.

    After Jiang Wan spoke in dialect, Zhao Yun said again: "Even if there is no hope of saving Jingzhou, Yunchang and the lord are like brothers, and now he is in trouble. If we don't send troops to rescue him, who can bear the lord's punishment?"

    At the moment of life and death, when Liu Bei, who was far away in Luocheng, failed to receive intelligence in time and give instructions, Zhuge Liang, the commander-in-chief of the partial division, must make a difference at this critical moment.

    Zhuge Liang stood in front of a large map of Shuzhong hanging on the screen, staring at it for a long time, determination gradually revealed in his eyes.

    Immediately he made new arrangements.

    Strictly block the news and take advantage of the inconvenient transportation in central Sichuan to delay the spread of news about the fall of Jingzhou as much as possible to prevent the morale of the army from wavering.

    Changed the army's strategy of tracing back to Jiangxi and advancing westward, and Zhao Yun led the army to the northGo up, seize the two counties of Dongguanghan and Brazil as soon as possible, connect the western branch with Liu Bei's main force, and form a continuous controllable territory between Jingzhou and Yizhou.

    Zhuge Liang led his army to continue the fierce attack on Jiangzhou, complete the encirclement strategy of Chengdu as soon as possible, and try to capture Yizhou before the news of Jingzhou's fall affected the soldiers' will to fight.

    As for Jingzhou, Zhuge Liang believed that if Guan Yu was unfavorable in the battle, he would lead his army to retreat from Nanjun to Yidu.  Meng Da, the prefect of Yidu, has 3,000 elite troops, and he will definitely go east to rescue Guan Yu. Liu Feng will control a large area of ??Jingzhou in a short period of time, and there are not many mobile troops available. If Meng Da takes action, he will be able to rescue Guan Yu and return him to Yidu.  All.

    In order to prevent unexpected events, Zhuge Liang ordered Jiang Wan to lead three thousand troops and return to Yidu with Zhuge Liang's handwriting. On the one hand, he urged Meng Da to send troops to rescue Guan Yu, and on the other hand, he helped to defend Yidu.

    Zhuge Liang believed that as long as he defended Yidu, an important area connecting the two states, when Yizhou was stabilized in the future and Liu Bei led his army eastward along the Yangtze River to capture Jingzhou, Liu Feng would be without danger. The loss of Jingzhou would only be temporary. Sooner or later,  Will return to Liu Bei's hands.  .
