    In Jiangxia, Cai Mao returned without success and felt depressed; while Kuai Liang felt equally heavy when he thought about having to deal with a large-scale invasion by Yuan Jun in the future; the only one who was happy was probably Liu Yao.  At this time, Liu Yao no longer expected to own a piece of territory, dominate and rely on Liu Biao, which in his opinion was the best outcome for him. They were both members of the Han clan, so Liu Biao would not treat him badly.  "In the future, I will be a rich man in peace and stability and no longer care about the world's major events!" After making up his mind, Liu Yao felt light both physically and mentally, and the pressure of the past disappeared instantly.  A few days later, Huang Zu led his army withdrew to Jiangxia.  They also returned without success, but Huang Zu lost thousands of troops, which was much more miserable than Cai Mao.  Kuai Liang didn't have a good look towards Huang Zu. If Huang Zu could capture Chaisang, the battle would be a different story. Unfortunately, Huang Zu was incompetent and dispatched an army of 50,000 people, but he couldn't do anything to the little Chaisang. Kuai Liang naturally  I have complaints in my heart.  Huang Zu didn't pay attention to Kuai Liang's attitude. He went to Cai Mao and Kuai Liang and explained the Chaisang war in detail.  After listening to Huang Zu's narration, Kuai Liang's resentment subsided a little. Who would have thought that Yuan Shu's reinforcements would come so quickly. Huang Zu's army had only been attacking the city for two days, but the reinforcements had already arrived, and it was too late to react.  "Alas! Could it be God's will?" Such a coincidence made Kuai Liang couldn't help but wonder, could it be God helping Yuan?  "What should we do next?" Cai Mao and Huang Zu both looked at Kuai Liang.  Seeing this, Kuai Liang quickly put away his thoughts, pondered for a moment, and said: "General Huang Zu continues to guard Jiangxia and pay close attention to Yuan Jun's movements. General Cai Mao and I rush back to Jiangling to report everything to the lord." Neither of them had any objections.  So, the army rested for a few days (Cai Mao's army) and set off again, heading towards Jiangling in Wangnan County. Liu Yao and his remaining soldiers were accompanying him, and Taishi Ci was naturally among them.  The army marched hurriedly for several days, and Jiangling City was already in sight.  Outside the city, Liu Biao and a group of civil and military officials had been waiting for a long time.  Cai Mao, Kuai Liang, and Liu Yao lined up in front of the formation, and the team arrived at the gate of Jiangling City.  Seeing Liu Yao, Liu Biao suddenly smiled and said hello: "Seriously! It's been a long time no see." Liu Yao didn't dare to be disrespectful, so he dismounted hurriedly and bowed: "I've seen brother Jing Sheng!" Liu Yao was about to leave someone with him, so Liu Yao's attitude was relaxed.  Very low and very respectful.  Liu Biao's smile became even brighter, he stretched out his hand to help Liu Yao up and said, "You're welcome!" Immediately, Liu Biao pulled Liu Yao into the city.  In the governor's house, the banquet has been prepared.  Everyone filed in.  After sitting down, Liu Biao raised his glass and said, "I'm very happy that the ceremony has arrived. You and I will drink this cup to the full." Liu Yao hurriedly raised his glass, expressed his gratitude to Liu, and drank it all in one gulp.  "I have admired the scenery of Jiangling for a long time! Now that I can come here to see it, my life is not in vain!" Liu Yao praised.  Liu Biao looked satisfied and said: "Since Zhengli likes it, he will live here permanently. You and I can communicate more." Liu Yao was overjoyed and said, "Thank you so much for your generosity, brother Jingsheng." Originally, Liu Yao thought he wanted to live in Jingzhou permanently.  It must take a lot of effort, but I didn't expect it to be so easy.  With no worries anymore, Liu Yao completely relaxed and started chatting with Liu Biao all over the world.  Liu Biao liked literary and ink work the most, and Liu Yao's move was just in line with his intention. The two chatted happily and the atmosphere was very harmonious.  After the banquet was over, Liu Biao personally sent Liu Yao out of the mansion.  The two of them said goodbye.  After seeing Liu Yao off, Liu Biao became drunk and ordered everyone to disperse and go back to rest.  Kuai Liang originally wanted to report the war to Liu Biao, but seeing his appearance, he could only hold back.  Early the next morning, Kuai Liang took his younger brother Kuai Yue to the Governor's Mansion to pay homage to Liu Biao.  I happened to meet Cai Mao in front of the governor's mansion.  Cai Mao saw Kuai Yue behind Kuai Liang, his eyes flashed, and he said kindly: "Zirou, Yidu! Are you also here to find the lord?" "Of course! General Cai wants to report the war to the lord? It's just right, I  Let's go together." Kuai Liang said.  Cai Hao nodded slightly.  So, the three of them came in hand in hand.  In the Governor's Mansion, Liu Biao had just stood up when he heard someone coming to report that the Kuai brothers and Cai Mao were asking to see him.  Liu Biao frowned and thought, "How could the three of them get together?" Before, Kuai Yue's "abnormality" aroused Liu Biao's suspicion and ordered someone to secretly follow the two of them.  Sure enough, that night, Cai Mao went to Kuai's Mansion. It was said that he was attending a banquet.?I just came out at midnight.  Liu Biao didn't know exactly what the two talked about, but according to the spy's report, Cai Mao's face was full of anger when he came out. It seemed that the two families had not united, or had not negotiated good terms, so Liu Biao felt relieved.  "That's right! Since Zirou and Degui have returned, they should explain the war to me Maybe it's just a coincidence!" Liu Biao felt that he was too sensitive, and shook his head to get rid of the distracting thoughts in his mind.  Thinking of the war, Liu Biao's heart tightened slightly. At this time, he only knew that Yuzhang had been completely occupied by Yuan's army, but it was unknown how much his own troops had been lost and how much Liu Yao's army was left.  Of course, that was not what Liu Biao cared about. What he urgently wanted to know was what the current situation was, or whether Yuan Jun intended to attack Jingzhou.  "Yuan Shu!" Thinking of this name, Liu Biao had a headache.  Not daring to neglect, Liu Biao hurriedly put on his clothes and strode out.  After a while, Liu Biao came to the main hall, where Kuai Liang and three others were already waiting for him.  Seeing Liu Biao arriving, the three of them bowed in unison: "Greetings, my lord!" "No need to be polite! Everyone, please sit down." Liu Biao waved his hand.  After the three of them sat down, Liu Biao asked directly: "I already know that Yuzhang is missing. What is the current situation? You will come here in detail." The three of them looked at each other, and Kuai Liang came out to explain the war in various places in Yuzhang in detail.  Read it again.  "The Yu Zhang is lost, and there is no longer a barrier to the east of Jingzhou. We will make preparations early that morning! According to my subordinates, although Yuan Shu captured the Yu Zhang, it took too long and the army was exhausted. He should not move again within the year.  Fighting. The lord should take advantage of this opportunity and not know how to defend himself," Kuai Liang concluded.  Liu Biao was relieved when he learned that Yuan Shu would not attack Jingzhou for the time being.  Regarding Kuai Liang's proposal, Liu Biao also attached great importance to it and asked: "What should be done specifically, Zirou can tell you in detail?" Kuai Liang said: "With Yuzhang as the foundation, Yuan Shu will definitely take the right path and attack Jiangxia directly with Chai Sang.  The lord can order General Huang Zu to take strict precautions and send troops to assist Jingnan if necessary. However, compared with Jiangxia, the possibility of Yuan's army attacking Jingnan is very small. The lord only needs to order the counties to take strict precautions.  "After listening to Kuai Liang's words, Kuai Yue, who was sitting at the end, his eyes flickered, and he thought to himself: "Brother! If my guess is correct, Yuan Jun's target will definitely be Jingnan!"  The four counties were the deepest parts of Jingzhou and were equivalent to Liu Biao's retreat. Kuai Yue thought in his shoes. If he were Yuan Shu, he would definitely take Jingnan first. In this way, Liu Biao would have no choice but to retreat and wait for death.  Liu Biao naturally didn't know what Kuai Yue was thinking. After listening to Kuai Liang's words, he nodded repeatedly and said, "What Zi Rou said is true! I will send an order to Jiangxia and Jingnan to be on strict guard." "My lord is wise!" Kuai Liang said.  After a pause, Kuai Liang continued: "In this battle, Yuan Shu's navy played a huge role and captured Chaisang City in one fell swoop! Jiangxia is where Dajiang and Xiangjiang meet, and the navy is of great use. Yuan Jun  If there is an invasion, there will definitely be help from the navy. His subordinates believe that the lord should increase the input of the navy and never let the Yuan army take advantage. "In fact, Kuai was very depressed in his conscience. Originally, the navy should have the upper hand in Jingzhou.  Who would have thought that Yuan Shu's naval force would perform so amazingly and overwhelm Jingzhou in one fell swoop.  The navy was one of Jingzhou¡¯s only advantages. Kuai Liang was naturally unwilling to give up, so he persuaded Liu Biao to increase investment.  "Yes!" Liu Biao nodded, turned to Cai Mao, and said, "Degui! I will leave the naval affairs to you. You must be attentive and don't be negligent." "No!" Cai Mao said calmly, neither sad nor happy.  He responded.  If Cai Mao had received such an important task before, he would have been overjoyed, but now he no longer has such thoughts.  Cai Hao glanced at Kuai Yue opposite with a complicated face, and Cai Hao had a lot of thoughts in his heart.  "Is it really necessary" Kuai Yue looked at Liu Biao who breathed a sigh of relief, secretly disdainful in his heart, and thought: "It's just a dying struggle!"  PS: Three updates tomorrow!
