    "Liu Jingzhou is indeed Liu Jingzhou. I was almost deceived by you. If you had been prepared, how could you have been besieged by me? Tonight is the time when Xiangyang returns to Cao Cao!" Seeing that Liu Biao had fallen into the trap, Lu Rui took advantage of the situation and added a few more  Put the fire in so that Cai Mao, a young man, can't quibble with his charges.  "Is General Zhengbei so confident? Yes, Cai Mao is the governor of Jingzhou. If he wants to launch a mutiny, he is very likely to capture our city of Jingzhou, but please don't forget, general, that I am the shepherd of Jingzhou! Now!  The four gates have been closed. Cai Mao's army outside the city cannot enter the city. In just a few moments, I will be able to control Xiangyang City. Please put down your weapons. I want to talk to the general." Liu Biao shook his head. It seems that Cai Mao is rebelling.  The possibility has increased again.  If Cai Mao really rebels, his Jingzhou will definitely not be saved. At that time, the lives of his heirs will be the most important.  "Liu Jingzhou, it's useless to talk more. It's just that Liu Jingzhou doesn't have the capital to make peace with me. If the governor fails, I will talk to Liu Jingzhou. Now it seems that there is no need!" Lu Rui waved his hand.  The long sword in his hand allowed the man in black to narrow Liu Biao's encirclement.  "Liu Jingzhou, advise your people to put down their weapons, otherwise, this general will not have such good patience." Lu Rui glared angrily and threatened Liu Biao.  "Put away your weapons, I want to see who wins and who loses today!" Liu Biao waved his hand, indicating that there was no need for civil and military resistance.  At this time, Kuai Liang, who was standing aside, wiped the sweat on his forehead with his sleeves. This was a signal to Lu Rui. Liu Biao was still suspicious of Cai Mao's rebellion.  What a great Liu Jingsheng!  The scheming city government is really powerful. At this time, it is still thinking calmly about Cai Mao's betrayal.  If he hadn't threatened Liu Biao just now, he would have almost exposed his secret.  Liu Biao was testing my confidence just now!  At this time, inside Xiangyang City.  Cai Mao led thousands of soldiers straight to the prefect's mansion and confronted Wenpin's people in front of the prefect's mansion.  "Zhong Ye? Why are you doing this?" Cai Hao was furious when he saw Wenpin leading an army to surround his troops. Who was Wenpin and how dared to stop him?  "Grand Governor. The Prefect's Mansion was raided by Cao's army. Now Mr. Zhou Mu has been captured by thieves. Please Grand Governor, please stop." Wenpin cupped his hand and explained to Cai Mao.  Wenpin had received Liu Biao's instructions very early. Cai Mao might have betrayed him and wanted to control Cai Mao's people outside the prefect's palace.  "Stop? Zhongye, what do you mean? My lord is surrounded. You are still setting up defenses here. I think you are the traitor, colluding with Kuai Yue and Kuai Liang to plot against me, Jingzhou!" Cai Mao pulled out his long sword and pointed at Wenpin.  "Grand Governor, you are so majestic. It's just that the Grand Governor mobilized the army privately to control the four gates. I don't know how to convey this to the Lord?" Wenpin also pulled out his long sword and pointed at Cai Mao.     What?  Cai Mao was stunned. Did Liu Biao already know that Lu Rui would take action? His real purpose was not Lu Rui, but to test me?  Or there is another possibility.  Is this a conspiracy?  Thinking of this, Cai Mao was stunned. He needed to think carefully about this situation.  Seeing that Cai Mao had stopped, Wenpin was also puzzled. All these things were too sudden. It was possible that Cai Mao was rebellious, but it was unlikely.  Now that Cai Mao has stopped, he can't take action first. Anyway, Liu Biao's purpose is just to stop Cai Mao's army.  Cai Mao and Wenpin are talented people in Jingzhou.  They can control their tempers, but Cai Zhong and Cai He outside the city are mediocre and cannot control their inner desires at all.  "The two generals stopped, Pan is polite." Cai Zhong and Cai He led Cai Mao's army to the outside of Xiangyang City, but Liu Pan blocked the city gate.  Blocked outside the city gate.  "Master Pan?" Cai He and Cai Zhong were stunned for a moment. Why did Liu Pan appear here? Wasn't he supposed to be guarding Changsha?  "Two generals, I have ordered the lord to seal the four gates. No one can enter the city without the lord's hand. Please lead the troops back to the barracks." Liu Pan shouted from the top of the tower, telling Cai He and Cai Zhong.  "This?" Cai He and Cai Zhong were stunned for a moment. Liu Pan's appearance here really surprised them.  Could it be that this so-called Cao Jun incident was not aimed at Cao Jun on the other side but at the Cai family?  In fact, if Cai Mao were here, he would definitely stay put, so that the fight between Xiangyang's roommates would be avoided. Unfortunately, outside the city, there are two people who are greedy for small profits, Cai He and Cai Zhong.  "Brother is still in the city. We have all led the troops here. If we don't enter the city, won't we be plotted by the lord?" Cai He glanced at Cai Zhong. Now there is no chance to distinguish the truth of the matter. If the Cai family does not control  The overall situation may be settled by Liu Biao.  "Yes! Let's attack the city and help big brother!" Cai Zhong pulled out his long sword and waved his hand to let the army attack the city.  "Well, you Cai family, if you don't want my father to treat you like this, you actually want to rebel!" "Sign up and let all our ambush troops come out!" Liu Pan saw Cai Zhong and said:Not to be outdone, Cai He took action and let Huang Zhong and Wei Yan's ambush troops come out to attack Cai Zhong and Cai He from both sides.  "Is there an ambush? Give it a try, either the Cai family will die today, or the Cai family will take over Jingzhou!" Cai Zhong and Cai He did not panic when they saw the ambush. Cai Zhong was responsible for attacking the city, and Cai He led the troops to resist the ambush.  There was a fight between the same men outside Jingzhou City. Cao Ang, who was in Jiangbei, soon received news of the fierce battle outside Xiangyang City. Cao Ang quickly summoned civil and military forces to discuss countermeasures.  "Military advisor, what do you think this is going on?" Cao Ang was not sure about the sudden intelligence. He was originally recuperating here and waiting for Cao Cao's army, but now, before Cao Cao's army has arrived, Jingzhou is in civil strife?  When Man Chong saw Cao Ang questioning him, he lowered his head and thought about everything that happened outside Jingzhou City.  Needless to say, something must have happened inside Jingzhou, otherwise the soldiers stationed outside Jingzhou and the soldiers inside the city would not have clashed, or even clashed with each other.  Now Lu Rui must have used a trick to cause a certain conflict within Jingzhou, but the conflict did not expand. According to intelligence feedback, only Cai Mao's pro-army and Liu Biao's pro-army clashed. The naval forces along the coast still stepped up their efforts.  Patrol to prevent Cao Jun from crossing south.  "Mr. Deputy Prime Minister, Chong speculates that the Marquis must have had a plan in Jingzhou, which is why the fight between the same people in Jingzhou occurred. We should immediately organize the army and attack Xiangyang." Man Chong raised his hand and reported to Cao Ang, although he didn't know that Lu  What is Rui's plan?  But now there is civil strife in Jingzhou. As long as his army is dispatched, he will definitely be able to establish a permanent camp on the south side of the river. In this way, the natural barrier of the Yangtze River will no longer exist.  "Yes. According to the advice of the military advisor, quickly order the army to build a pontoon bridge, cross the Yangtze River, and attack Xiangyang!" "No!" Jingshui in the north of Xiangyang is one of the sources of the Yangtze River. In the Xiangyang area, Jingshui is the only barrier to the north of Xiangyang.  , but this barrier is compared to the Yangtze River in Jiangxia or Chaisang areas.  It is like an ant-like barrier, because the width of Jingshui River is not large. In some narrow places, only a five-meter pontoon bridge can be built, and the army can pass through. The waters in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River are narrow and it is difficult to serve as a defensive barrier.  Cai Mao also based on the topography of Xiangyang.  The main camp in the water was set up at Wulin Port to the east of Xiangyang. The purpose was to encircle three and one and guard the east, south and west of Xiangyang. As long as Cao Cao attacked from the north, the armies of the three parties could surround the north.  Defend Cao Jun.  This was originally a good defensive strategy, but due to internal strife in Jingzhou, this strategy no longer worked.  "Cao's army!" Cao Ang's army quickly built a pontoon bridge, crossed Jingshui, and headed straight for Xiangyang City.  Liu Pan and the Cai brothers were shocked when they saw Cao's army, but they were unable to save themselves. The defenders of Xiangyang City and the Cai brothers were already fighting together, and it was difficult for military orders to separate the two fighting armies.  Cao Ang rushed to Xiangyang City and saw the fighting between the two armies. Naturally, he would not let go of this opportunity for the fisherman to benefit.  Cao Ang commanded the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry as the vanguard and rushed into the melee between the two armies.  Huang Zhong and Wei Yan outside the city had been fighting fiercely with Cai Zhong and Cai He's troops. They were already very exhausted and could not care about Cao Jun behind them. Cao Jun made a surprise attack.  He dispersed Liu Biao's army and Cai Mao's army outside the city.  At this time, the east side of Xiangyang City was also attacked by an army.  The attack here was a bit unusual. It was the sergeants in the city who broke through the city gate, rushed out an army from the city, and moved closer to Cai He and Cai Zhong's troops.  This army was the personal bodyguard of thousands of people led by Cai Mao in the city.  The appearance of the Wenpin army made Cai Hao sober up a lot. Cai Hao slowly began to recall the whole thing, trying to find a reasonable explanation.  However, Cai Zhong and Cai He outside the city did not give Cai Mao time and attacked the city directly.  Cai Mao also understood Liu Biao's deployment. Liu Biao seemed to be always on guard against him, and he was already surrounded in Xiangyang City.  Thinking of this, Cai Mao lost all reason and rushed out of Xiangyang City from the east gate with his troops. However, Wenpin did not leave the prefect's mansion, but led his troops to defend the prefect's mansion.  "General Liao, you quickly lead your troops to block the east gate and prevent Cao's army from entering!" Before Liu Pan knew what was going on on the tower, Cai Mao's troops rushed out of the city. Liu Pan thought they were from the city.  In response, he quickly asked Liao Hua to lead people to the east gate to block the gap.  "No!" After receiving the order, Liao Hua led his troops down the tower and headed towards the east gate.  Three hours passed, the sky gradually became brighter, and the internal strife in Xiangyang City gradually came to an end.  After Cai Mao escaped with his troops, he reunited with Cai Zhong and Cai He. Seeing that he could not go back to Xiangyang City, Cai Mao led his army to Wulin, which was still Cai Mao's navy stronghold.  Huang Zhong and Wei Yan were attacked by Cao Ang's army and suffered a lot of losses. Together, the two of them had no choice but to retreat to the Jiangling Trail and station themselves there, so that they could resist Cao's army in the south.Next, you can wait for Liu Biao's military orders.  The Jiangling Trail is only thirty miles away from Xiangyang City. As long as Xiangyang City settles down, Jingzhou's spies will not fail to discover their troops.  Cao Ang led his troops to Xiangyang City. Seeing that the city was high and the pond was deep, Xiangyang could not be captured by force for a while, so he established a military stronghold to the north of Xiangyang City Gate to confront the defenders in the city.  The noise outside Beiyuan gradually disappeared. Lu Rui was also aware of his situation in the small courtyard. It seemed that the internal strife in Xiangyang City had been put down!  "General Zhengbei? It seems that your people will not arrive. Instead, my army has surrounded this place. Can you put down your weapons now? I said that I will not attack the general. Please rest assured, general. I just want to  Please ask the general to stay in Jingzhou temporarily." Liu Biao clutched his chest, feeling pain again, and his time was running out.  "Okay, since Liu Jingzhou said so, I will believe Liu Jingzhou for once." Lu Rui looked at Kuai Yue, and Kuai Yue gave Lu Rui a secret signal to put down his weapon. Liu Biao now has no murderous intent.  Lu Rui, Shi A and the killer were quickly controlled by Liu Biao.  Liu Biao didn't say anything, he just ordered Kuai Liang to imprison Lu Rui in Beiyuan without harming him, and he left Beiyuan with other civil and military officials.  In the meeting hall of Jingzhou Prefecture, Liu Biao left Kuai Yue behind.  Let other civil and military personnel retreat.  Liu Biao already had a general understanding of what happened last night, including Cai Mao's whereabouts, the defenders outside the city, Cao's army outside the city, and the defenders inside the city.  In all cases, Liu Biao received information from the spies.  The situation is over!  Liu Biao sighed secretly in his heart. Now Cai Mao led his army to retreat to Wulin. It seemed that he was at odds with himself. Cai Mao's departure meant that most of the Jingzhou navy would be destroyed.  The Jingzhou navy no longer exists, and he no longer has a weapon to resist Cao's army.  There was a fierce battle in the city.  Although the civil strife was calmed down, people's hearts and minds were floating and the morale of the army was scattered. With Cao's army outside the city, the morale of the army was unavailable and the defeat was certain.  "Alien. What suggestions do you have for Lu Rui?" Liu Biao was filled with hatred at this time. Lu Rui must have played a role in this civil strife, otherwise there would not have been this internal strife in Xiangyang City, Jingzhou. Liu Biao wanted to  Lu Rui's body was cut into thousands of pieces, but his reason told him that he couldn't do this!  "Lord. Lu Rui is Cao Cao's adopted son and an important minister in Cao's army. The current situation is very unfavorable to our army. If Lu Rui is killed, I'm afraid the lord's heirs will?" Kuai Yue knew that Liu Biao was a smart man.  , you will understand the reason without saying much.  When Liu Biao heard what Kuai Yue said, his heart skipped a beat, and his anger suddenly decreased a lot.  Yes, I hate Lu Rui, and Jingzhou's foundation may be ruined like this.  But besides himself, there are Qi'er and Cong'er, as well as his own bloodline.  It doesn't matter if he dies, he doesn't have much time anyway.  But his son still has a long way to go.  "Xidu, I understand. You go and order someone to take good care of Lu Rui and don't let him suffer any injustice. And tomorrow I will personally write a handwritten letter for you to send to Cao Jun's camp, saying that I do not want the people of Jingzhou to live in ruins. I am willing to  Surrender to the Prime Minister." Liu Biao slowly told Kuai Yue these words, clutching his chest from time to time. The pain made Liu Biao miserable.  "Yes, lord, I understand." "Yes." Liu Biao nodded, indicating that Kuai Yue could go out.  Early the next morning, Kuai Yue took Liu Biao's letter and went to Cao Ang's military camp.  As soon as Kuai Yue left, Liu Biao recruited Wenpin.  "I will finally see my lord!" Wenpin walked into Liu Biao's study.  "Zhongye is here?" "Yes, my lord!" "Zhongye, how have you been treated by this general in the past few years?" Liu Biao glanced at Wenpin. This humble general who was promoted by him is his last hope.  .  "My lord is so kind to my general that I will never repay him even if I die a hundred times." "Hey, there is no need to die a hundred times. Zhongye only needs to take good care of my young son." "Master Cong?" "That's right, Zhongye,  You should also know the current situation in Jingzhou" Then, Liu Biao analyzed the current situation in Jingzhou.  Cai Mao and Liu Biao had a falling out, and Cao Jun established a military stronghold outside the city. It was only a matter of time before Xiangyang and Jingzhou fell into Cao Cao's hands.  Liu Biao didn't know how Cao Cao would treat his heirs, but he still had to make complete preparations.  Liu Biao¡¯s intention is simple.  As his eldest son, Liu Qi must be the one who will take over and stabilize Jingzhou after his death.  After Cao Cao obtains Jingzhou, he will definitely reuse his eldest son in the early stage. However, once Jingzhou becomes stable, Liu Qi's safety will be worried.  Liu Qi is the eldest son and has been in poor health. Liu Biao has decided to sacrifice Liu Qi for the sake of the Liu family's bloodline.  The purpose of Liu Biao recruiting Wenpin was to let Wenpin take care of Liu Cong.Liu Biao¡¯s meaning is very simple. Just ask Wenpin to arrange a manor for Liu Cong in a county in Jingzhou so that Liu Cong can live out the rest of his life. As for his identity, of course he is a relative of Wenpin. As for how to arrange it, it is Wenpin¡¯s business.  .  "Don't worry, my lord, Ping will take good care of the young master and will not let the lord down. As long as Ping is here, the young master will be safe." Wenpin responded to Liu Biao with tears in his eyes.  "Okay, okay, I know Zhongye will not let me down. I have already given instructions to the housekeeper. The money in my house will be handed over to Zhongye. From now on, Cong'er will be handed over to Zhongye." "Please."  Don¡¯t worry, my lord, I will take good care of the young master!¡± ¡°Well, Zhongye, only you can know about this matter. After the housekeeper and servants have dealt with the matter, you will kill them. There was a fierce battle in the city last night, and there were many things.  If it needs to be dealt with, I will ask Liao Hua to assist you, and we will take advantage of the opportunity." Liu Biao knew that he did not have much time, so he arranged a way out for his heirs.  I hope to try my best to preserve my bloodline.  "No!" Wenpin bowed his hand and exited Liu Biao's study.  "Hey! People from aristocratic families can't be trusted! Cai Mao? Kuai Yue? Kuai Liang? Originally, I thought I was riding alone and with the help of three people, I could secure Jingzhou, but I didn't expect that this is the situation now   Liu Biao lay on the seat, recalling the past when he rode to Jingzhou alone, and recalled what happened last night. Liu Biao felt that his mind suddenly became clear, and everything became clear.  Still betrayed me!  "Liu Biao's face turned red, smiled slightly, and lay down. "At the end of 206 AD, in the middle of winter, Liu Biao, the great Han Jingzhou herdsman, died of illness in Xiangyang City. PS: Thank you for your great support!!
