The Rise of the Song People of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 143

Liu Biao's first step was to order Liu Pan to garrison in Jiangling after knowing that Cai Mao's army was almost wiped out.

After Cai Mao fled back to Xiangyang, Liu Biao immediately removed all military power from Cai Mao on the grounds of Cai Mao's defeat!

Although the Cai family is in the Jingzhou navy, and Cai Zhong, Cai He, Cai Xun and others hold important positions in the military, but the first step is to get rid of Cai Mao, the smuggler.

When Mrs. Cai found out that Mrs. Cai was going to blow the wind on her pillow, Liu Biao simply didn't go back to Mrs. Cai's room to sleep, and moved to sleep in the study.

Liu Biao did this for two purposes.

First, give Cai an attitude, this matter is not so easy to pass, it's not like letting a woman blow the pillow casually and everything will be fine.

Second, Liu Biao was out of the control of the Cai family. Liu Biao placed his confidantes in the Cai and Kuai families. Of course, he also knew that his prefect's mansion was riddled with holes.

The prefect's mansion is now said to be the back garden of the Cai family, and they can enter and exit whenever they want, only the study room has not been breached by the Cai family.

When Liu Biao and Wang Wei returned to Xiangyang, they told Liu Biao the whole story and even explained that Zhang Yun didn't know whether he was alive or dead.

Liu Biao started the next move. Liu Biao met Wenpin and Wang Wei in the study!
Wang Wei is a martial artist, straight-forward and straight-faced. Cai Mao offended Wang Wei to death this time, and Wang Wei was promoted by Liu Biao, so in the eyes of outsiders, Wang Wei is Liu Biao's confidant.

But Wenpin was different. Wenpin, the 'number one general in Jingzhou', was already serving in Jingzhou when Liu Biaodan rode down from Jingzhou.

Wenpin was originally from Wancheng. As early as when Zhang Zi was the governor of Jingzhou, he was the captain of Wancheng. When Sun Jian killed Zhang Zi in Nanyang, Wenpin was very dissatisfied with Sun.

When Liu Biao went to Jingzhou, he saw that Wenpin was quite capable, so he brought Wenpin all the way to Jingzhou, so in the eyes of Cai Mao, Kuai Liang, and Kuai Yue, Wenpin was Liu Biao's confidant.

But Liu Biao knew that Wenpin was a pure soldier, and Wenpin was loyal to him because Liu Biao was an official of Jingzhou Shepherd, not Liu Biao himself.

To put it bluntly, Wenpin would accept the order for anyone to be the Jingzhou pastor.

As the troubled times slowly unfolded and the princes competed for the throne, although Wenpin's thoughts were touched, the essence was still the same, that is to say, Wenpin was a neutral faction.

Wenpin doesn't care about Liu Biao's power, Cai's and Kuai's, Wenpin doesn't care.

However, with Cai Mao's actions this time, Liu Biao was able to regain Wenpin, the "No. [-] General in Jingzhou".

In the study, Liu Biao, Wenpin, and Wang Wei chatted secretly without knowing it.

However, the next day, Liu Biao ordered Wenpin to enter Jiangling to take over the former Cai Mao's Jingzhou navy, and to garrison Sun Ce at the natural dangers of the Yangtze River. He also ordered Song Zhong to send Sun Ce as envoy in exchange for his nephew Zhang Yun.

But Wang Wei stayed in Xiangyang to take over the Jingzhou army. At the same time, Liu Biao issued another order. Liu Pan did not need to return to Xiangyang to directly lead the army to station in Jiangling.

Liu Biao took advantage of Cai Mao's defeat to deprive Cai's military power in Jingzhou in a targeted manner, among which the two positions of Xiangyang guard and Jingzhou navy were the most important.

You must know that these two positions were originally owned by Cai Hao, but now they have become Liu Biao's real confidant Wenpin and Wang Wei. .

Kuai Yue wanted to persuade and restore the situation several times, but there was no way. Cai Mao's defeat made it impossible for Kuai Yue to come forward to retain these important positions.

Moreover, Kuai Yue's talent is not as good as his elder brother Kuai Liang's, so he couldn't think of a good strategy for a while.

This is not the case with Liu Biao's most slippery move. Liu Biao ordered Feng Kuailiang to be successful in retreating the enemy, and he was named a military division general and Liu Pan garrisoned Sun Ce just in case.

At the same time, he appointed and dismissed his confidantes, and Yi Ji took over all the positions of Kuai Liang in Xiangyang.

Liu Biao played this move very slickly.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Cai Mao, Kuai Liang, and Kuai Yue were all arranged clearly and clearly in an instant.

This is also the way that Liu Biao has had real power in Jingzhou for several years, and he has really stabilized Jingzhou Mu, not a Jingzhou puppet.

However, because of Cai Mao's defeat, Jingzhou's military strength was severely damaged, and they only had the strength to defend.

It is also such a move that buried the hidden dangers of Jingzhou in the future, allowing other princes to take advantage of it.

Liu Biao came to an end first, and returned to Sun Ce's place in Jingnan.

Although Sun Ce and others escaped and ascended to heaven, they still suffered burns to varying degrees. Zhou Yu learned that Sun Ce was injured, and it was also for future development strategies.

Zhou Yu left Han Dang, Lu Fan, Sun He, Sun Ru, and Sun Xiang to garrison Wuling, and took two wise generals, Cheng Pu and Huang Gai, to Changsha.

At the post-Changsha military meeting, Zhou Yu, Cheng Pu, Han Dang, Chen Wu, Lu Meng, Lu Su, Zhang Xian, Huan Jie, Zhang Yi, Qin Song, Chen Duan, Sun Hao, Sun Ce's main generals and advisers all participated in the meeting.

Sun Ce felt a pain in his heart when he saw that the two vacant seats should have been occupied by Sun Ben and Xu Kun!
In a blink of an eye, he looked at the half-burned general (Sun Ce himself had a BMW five-color rouge horse that leaped over the wall of fire without any burns). Lu Meng's face was burned because he fell on a dog eating shit, and his face was burned on the fire. He looked very scary.

Chen Wu suffered extensive burns on his back, and other generals also suffered burns to varying degrees. Sun Ce felt very guilty because his recklessness had injured his generals.

Sun Ce walked up to Lu Su's side, bowed deeply to Lu Su and said, "Zijing, it's a mistake, you shouldn't have disobeyed your master! The entire army can be safe and sound, and it all depends on your master's ability!"

"If you have done something wrong, you will be punished, and if you have meritorious service, you will be rewarded. After a certain meeting, you will receive fifty army sticks, and you will be promoted to Lu Su as a military adviser, and you will participate in the military!"

Lu Su was a generous man. When Sun Ce bowed, he hurriedly stepped forward to help Sun Ce up and said repeatedly: "My lord, please rise, but Su doesn't dare to do it!"

Sun Ce went on to say: "Gong Jin, Zi Jing, and Bo Xu (Huan Jie style Bo Xu) now that Liu Biao has retreated, where should our army go?"

Zhou Yu naturally heard that Sun Ce did not follow Lu Su's strategy, which resulted in a big defeat, and he and Lu Su are close friends, saying that he should let Lu Su speak first and let Lu Su show his talents.

When Lu Su saw Zhou Yu's invitation gesture, he also stood up and said: "Your Majesty, now our army has defeated Liu Biao and secured the southern part of Jingzhou, but it is not the time to attack the northern part of Jingzhou now."

"First, the natural danger of the Yangtze River is still in Liu Biao's hands, and the Jingzhou navy is on the river. It is almost impossible for our army to go north."

"So it is imperative for our army to train a navy. The navy is extremely important to our army. It is not only related to going north to attack the northern part of Jingzhou."

"And it is related to the future attack and defense of Jiangdong!"

"At this time, Lu Heng and Liu Biao are ahead of our army!"

"Secondly, Su believes that because he should rest and recuperate first, train the navy and train elite soldiers, first attack Jiangxia to destroy Huangzu, capture Jiangxia and then seek Nanjun."

"After our army captured Jingzhou, we first marched westward to capture Bashu. Although Liu Zhang was a dog guarding the city, he was far inferior to Liu Biao."

"Bashu is a country of great abundance, and there are natural dangers to help. After taking Jingzhou and Yizhou, if nothing happens in the north, we can have a showdown with Lu Heng."

"If there are changes in the north, we can send troops to the north first! Such dominance is a last resort!"

Hearing Lu Su's strategic plan, Sun Ce's heart was surging!

In my heart, I feel that Zhou Yu and Lu Su are not weaker than Yu Yunwen and Ding Wei under Lu Heng's command!
