Chapter 822: Serious Troubles (Part 2)

Lu Meng looked around and said in a deep voice: "In two days, we have troops in three directions, and we must achieve results. For this, we will spare no expense, regardless of death or injury, and we cannot get a slight discount!"

All the generals said, "I wish to do my best to serve you, please give me the commander!"

"Pan Zhang! Xu Sheng!"

"exist!"

"You two lead the headquarters, landed from Jiangjin Port, and circled around the north of Jiangling City. Within two days, I want you to take Ji Nancheng first, deploy troops to cooperate with the navy to control Zixudu, and then attack Dangyang and Jingcheng northward. Two days later, I want you to completely block the northern passage of Jiangling and not allow one soldier and one soldier from Guan Yu's troops to go south! If Guan Yu enters Jiangling, I will kill the heads of you and the two of you!"

Although Guan Yu is a famous general in the world, Jiangdong has the advantages of the navy and its military strength. Besides, Guan Yu's headquarters was still restrained by the Jingxiang Cao army, and the power he could invest was always limited. Pan Zhang and Xu Sheng looked at each other and felt that it was not difficult to stop Guan Yu from leading a small number of troops south in a short period of time.

Xu Sheng asked cautiously: "What if Guan Yu's troops went south?"

"At that time, the Marquis of Wu personally led the army to arrive long ago. Don't worry, the Marquis of Wu has his own means to annihilate it in one fell swoop!"

Pan Zhang and Xu Sheng gritted their teeth and bowed together: "This battle will definitely be won, and we dare not die if we fail to fight!"

Lu Meng called out two more: "Ling Tong! He Qi!"

"exist!"

"The two generals, follow me to Jiangling and attack the city tomorrow! Tomorrow and the next day, I will ask you to attack with all your strength regardless of death or injury. Wu Hou led 100,000 people and then arrived, and he will definitely take Jiangling. As long as you get Jiangling, no matter how many deaths and injuries your troops are, Wu Hou will bear all the responsibility and double the compensation!"

This was an arrangement that had been determined long ago. Just as the fleet led by General He Qier led by Ling Tong and General He Qier carried a large number of siege equipment and components that had been made in advance. There were no less than 300 stone chariots alone, and the ballast stones carried by the fleet were just used as a weapon for throwing. In addition, there were countless rushing vehicles, chariots, ladders, etc.

Although Jiangling City is a strong city, with the main force of Guan Yu's headquarters heading north, the only ones who stayed behind the city at this moment were the generals of the attack on the enemy and the prefect of Nanjun Fei Guan. This Fei Guan was Liu Yan's son-in-law. He was successful at a young age and was known for his ability to hand over. He was very few of his martial arts. Ling Tong, He Qi, and Lu Meng's headquarters, with five times the force and the thunderous attack, he would definitely be able to overcome it.

If you really can't get a single army to guard Jiangling, there will be Wu Hou personally leading the army to attack the city, and all kinds of methods will be used. After all, there is only one city in Hefei. Wu Hou's investment over the past three years and preparation over the past three years are not to make Jiangling famous!

At that moment, Ling Tong, He Qi replied: "Yes!"

Lu Meng finally looked at Lu Yi: "Bo Yan!"

Lu Yi bowed: "Lu Yi is here."

"Bo Yan is responsible for the Public Security City. I see that the people in this city are in chaos. I think the previous arrangement has achieved results. Bo Yan quoted the headquarters and took the Public Security Bureau tonight, and then..."

Lu Meng raised his hand and pointed to a place west of the Public Security Bureau, and then set off: "Lexiang, Yidao, Yiling, Zigui. This is the exit of the Xiajiang Water and Land Road, and it is the jurisdiction of Yidu County. Please Bo Yan lead the headquarters and march along the north and south of the Yangtze River, and quickly attacked Yidu County, cutting off the connection between Jingyizhou."

After pausing, he continued: "After that Chengdu came to report that the left General Lei Yuan had set off and returned. It was estimated that he had been in Ba County. At that time, Liu Bei set up Yidu County to resettle the Lei family in Lujiang. Lei Yuan was governed here for several years. His clan power was deeply rooted and mixed. Bo Yan said that this trip did not require conquering cities and territories, but must stop people from coming to Yizhou as quickly as possible, so as not to let Lei Yuan step into Jingzhou and gather his subordinates. As long as the gates of the gorges are blocked, the cities in Yidu will be sent by Wu Hou to deal with it."

"Affect the order."

"Huo Jun, who is the current prefect of Yidu, is also a general who is good at guarding the pass with hundreds of people, defeating Liu Jiyu and tens of thousands of people. Bo Yan must be careful to deal with it. In addition, the surrounding areas of Yidu and the mountains are deep and dangerous, and the barbarians are everywhere. Wu Hou specially gave 100 gold and silver seals and 50 million yuan. Wherever Bo Yan goes, he can only give it to buy powerful local people. If the money is insufficient, Bo Yan can call it at will. No matter how much it costs, he will just do it and do it without having to keep it."

If you want to conquer Jingzhou, your time is not only on the battlefield, but also on the hearts of the people. These are all established strategies that have been arranged long ago. Lu Xun bowed solemnly: "Please rest assured by the Governor."

At this time, Jiangling Guardian Fei Guan had just finished his official duties for a day.

Everyone said that Fei Guan was successful at a young age, which was not bad at all. His clan's aunt was Liu Zhang's biological mother. He himself married Liu Yan's daughter, so he had a deep relationship with Liu Yan and Liu Zhang, father and son. When Liu Zhang was appointed as General Zhenwei, Fei Guan joined the army at only twenty years old. Later, he was a guardian of Li Yan and was regarded as a trusted general by Liu Zhang.

However, Fei Guan was soon inspired by Li Yan. He abandoned Liu Zhang during the Fucheng Incident and instead joined the command of Xuande Gong. He then surrendered many Yizhou generals as Liu Zhang's relatives and made contributions.

When Yizhou was pacified, Duke Xuande then regarded Fei Guan as a general and the prefect of Nanjun. Two years ago, because of Guan Yu's recommendation, he was promoted to the general of the attack on the enemy because of his achievements in governing the country. In terms of the status of civil and military officials in Jingzhou, Fei Guan now vaguely surpassed Pan Jun and became the chief of Guan Yu's subordinates.

Fei Guan was not a Yuan Cong, and was under thirty years old. How could he be led by Guan Yu as a helper? Of course, it was because this lord had outstanding talents. Fei Guan was both literary and military, smart and capable, with a straightforward personality and good at communication. Since he became the prefect of Nanjun, he has handled both military and political affairs very properly. During the Jiangling Battle three years ago, he also showed his tenacious fighting will.

This time, Guan Yu went north to Xiangfan, led his troops to stay in Jiangling with Fei Guan, and mobilized the subsequent troops to entrust them with food and supplies. Fei Guan was also meticulous, so he became particularly busy and often dealt with official duties until late at night.

Fei Guan was busy all day this day, and finally finished disposing of the official documents covered with the desk. Only then did he remember that he didn't even have to eat and was hungry.

He quickly threw down his pen and went to the backyard, asking the servants to prepare meals.

Jiangling is the capital of Jingzhou, with the former general's mansion, the Jingzhou Muslim Mansion where Pan Jun was stationed in Jingzhou, and there were also Duke Xuande and countless civil and military departments. Therefore, Fei Guan's prefect of Nanjun was squeezed to the northwest corner of Jiangling New City, covering a very small area.

Fei Guan arrived at his backyard after a few steps. He was from a large family and was very good at breeding management. Although his backyard was small, it was very exquisite, and even luxurious. Along the way, he had blue bricks and green tiles, jade steps and red courtyards, which were beautiful, and he also raised a few birds with gorgeous fur.

When he sat down, all kinds of carefully prepared delicacies were served, including turtles stewed with spices, stewed fish fillets, meat sauce and raw cut vegetables mixed with sauce.

Fei Guan has always liked the desire to be polite, but with his identity and financial resources, it is not a problem for each meal to be ten times more dishes. It is already considered extremely homemade to do just this level.

While eating big sips, he praised a few extra words of deliciousness, asking the entourages who were attending him to thank Shinfu. At this time, his entourage leader rushed over from the gate of the courtyard and pushed away several servants who were trying to stop him without hesitation.

This leader followed Fei Guan for many years, and his ancestors were all from the Fei family of Jiangxia. Fei Guan knew that he was definitely not a person who had trespassed into the inner house for nothing, so he immediately shouted: "What's the urgent matter?"

The entourage leader was sweating profusely: "The public security warned the beacon towers, and the Jiangdong naval army was approaching. The Jiangdong people... The Jiangdong people came against the alliance!"

Fei Guan was shocked, then stood up and said, "It's true!"

In recent years, although the Sun and Liu families have maintained an alliance in name only, the secret friction and competition have become increasingly fierce. After the military conflict over the ownership of Jiaozhou two years ago, several smaller-scale battles have occurred scattered, but the impact is limited to the local area and has been suppressed.

As the prefect of Nanjun, Fei Guan naturally saw this clearly, so he always guarded against Jiangdong and essentially regarded Jiangdong as an enemy rather than an ally.

Before Guan Yu led his troops north, he specially told Fei Guan that he must make all preparations for the situation and not give any enemy an opportunity to take advantage of it. With Guan Yu's nature, he could understand the object he pointed to, and Fei Guan naturally followed him.

So, at this moment, when hearing the news of the attack of the Jiangdong army, Fei Guan was surprised, then calmed down and said in a deep voice: "Don't panic! Everything is expected by General Guan! Beat the drum and summon the civil and military officials in the city!"

The entourage leader ran out to send orders, and then the sound of drums rumbling.

Fei Guan stood up and walked a few steps towards the outer hall, then turned back, poured half a bowl of rice into the remaining turtle soup, ate it slurped, wiped his mouth, and sneered a few times.

Jiangling City was the capital of Chu State during the Spring and Autumn Period for hundreds of years, and was the capital of the Han Dynasty for hundreds of years. It was also carried out by Liu Biao, Zhou Lang, and later Xuande Gong, and Yun Changgong continued to repair it. There was an old city forty miles outside, and a new city with the three palms inside. On the outside, there were Hanjin Port, Ji Nan City, Zhijiang, Jingcheng and many other military fortresses were scattered, which was as solid as a soup.
