After reading the letter and the seal below.

Liu Biao fell into deep thought. He never expected that Sun Ce had already planned for him in Jingzhou. The key is that these contents are highly credible. After all, Cao Cao had already attacked Nanyang.

According to what the letter said, they would probably destroy Chu Feng first, and it would be easy for Sun and Cao's coalition forces to destroy Chu Feng. If they were allowed to do so, wouldn't it be Jingzhou's turn?

No, Chu Feng cannot be allowed to perish, otherwise he will be truly helpless. However, he cannot feed a tiger into trouble. What he wants to see is that both sides suffer losses.

Thinking of this, his eyes narrowed slightly!

"Yunqing, I just thought about it carefully. I have to guard against Sun Cao's treachery. Let's do this. I will dispatch some warships from Jiangxia and other generals who suppressed thieves for your use."

"How much?" Chu Feng asked.

"I grant you two warships, fifty battleships and fifty sterns each, plus a total of three hundred warships such as stern boats, to help you capture Jiangdong!" Liu Biao said with a heartbroken look on his face.

"Too few," Chu Feng waved his hand. If he remembered correctly, the number of ships in Jingzhou was at least a thousand, and he expected at least eight hundred.

What's more, I came to barter, not him to give me a gift.

Liu Biao's face sank,

"Your Majesty, between the safety of Jingzhou and this mere boat, I believe you will know how to choose. If I fail Sun Ce, Yuzhang may lose Jiangxia..."

Chu Feng had something to say. He not only told Liu Biao, but also mainly told these nobles to let them know the current situation in Jingzhou.

Everyone was silent, and Chu Feng struck while the iron was hot: "In addition, Jingzhou is short of iron and the armor is incomplete. The cloth armor I developed can be sold to the envoy to exchange ideas!"

With that said, he took the latest and best cloth armor from Xu Chu.

"This thing is called anti-stab armor. Although it is not as protective as iron armor, it is lighter and easier to carry, and its protective effect is also at the top level."

Liu Biao's eyes flashed. He had been in charge of Jingzhou for so many years, but he had not produced much armor. This was more tempting to him than table salt.

"General Cai, go try this armor quickly!"

Cai Hao stepped forward and asked the guard to put it on with some doubts. He then drew his sword and struck several times, causing the guard to retreat repeatedly, but only a few threads were broken in the cloth armor on his body.

In order to completely cause damage, it is estimated that at least ten or even dozens of swords will be needed.

"Huh, that's really good armor!"

Cai Mao took back his sword and said in surprise.

In particular, this armor feels light and comfortable, and is no worse than iron armor for marching and fighting.

Seeing this, Liu Biao's eyes darkened slightly and asked: "Yunqing, how much more of this armor do you have?"

"This armor is made of silk thread and can be found anywhere. It is worn by all our troops, no less than ten thousand pieces. I wonder if your envoy is sincere in forming an alliance with me."

Chu Feng shouted loudly.

Xu Chu: “…………”

The fat man pursed his lips, and his boss started again, using the best armor to fool him, and then selling the worst one, and the key point was to lie that there were ten thousand pairs.

There is simply no truth!

"No less than 10,000 pieces?" Liu Biao was frightened. On the one hand, he was afraid, but on the other hand, he was a little eager. If he had these cloth armors, wouldn't it be...

"Yunqing, I have no shortage of armor in Jingzhou, but since Yunqing is so sincere, it doesn't hurt to exchange for some." Liu Biao had an expression that I didn't want at all.

Chu Feng chuckled, but refused to expose it.

"Your Majesty, as I said just now, if there are thousands of warships available, let us exchange what we have. You control the middle section of the Yangtze River, and I will control the lower reaches of the Yangtze River to fight against Cao Cao!"

"Yunqing, a thousand ships are too many. Our Jingzhou warships plus one are still less than a thousand ships!" Liu Biao quickly denied: "In this case, it is getting late."

"After I take care of you tonight, I will discuss it with all the tribes and give you a satisfactory answer, okay!" Liu Biao prepared to let Chu Feng go.

At least calm down his mentality.

"That's natural!" Chu Feng smiled warmly, "Then I'll have you to entertain me!"

"General Cai, please arrange Yunqing properly for me. Don't neglect it." Liu Biao waved his hand.

"No!" Cai Mao clasped his fists: "General, please!"

At the post house, Chu Feng and others stayed.

Xu Chu wiped the sword in his hand and asked idly: "Master, do you think Liu Biao will give us so many ships? How can we get so many ships for them?"

"Zhongkang, you must remember one thing when talking about business. Don't give your bottom to others until the end, otherwise you will only suffer the loss."

"As for how many armors there are, that's not up to him to worry about!"

After saying that, Chu Feng took out the warship blueprints he had received as a reward and looked at them while sipping tea. It must be said that they were very detailed, and they were a complete set of warship blueprints.

For example, building ships, fighting ships, stern ships, etc., but each type of structure is slightly different and has a keel attached, which is not comparable to a flat-bottomed ship and can be used for long voyages.

Seeing this, Chu Feng narrowed his eyes: "It's 38 feet long and 12 feet wide. It actually has the technology of dividing the warehouse?"

A 38-foot-long, nearly 100-meter ship is not small. The key transverse compartment technology will not sink even if it leaks. Building a batch of these warships, even for commercial use, is a great benefit!

Seeing this, Chu Feng felt a little hopeful.

He believed that it wouldn't be long before Shouchun's warships could sail across the rivers and seas.

For a moment, Chu Feng was immersed in it.

Dusk, Liu Biao's mansion.

When Chu Feng arrived, people from every house came.

And this cocktail party slowly unfolded amidst laughter and laughter. It seemed that there were not many places where all the big men could sing and dance, and Chu Feng was just a token drinker.

at night,

After three rounds of wine, five flavors of food.

Everyone had a few drinks and felt a little dizzy. Liu Biao also drank a lot. Seeing everyone saying goodbye, Liu Biao also ordered the butler to send them off.

Seeing that the people were almost gone, Chu Feng clasped his fists and was about to speak when Liu Biao shouted: "Yun Qing, we hit it off as soon as we met. Don't go back tonight. You and I are hungover from this!"

"This..." Chu Feng frowned.

"Oh, Yunqing, it's not that I don't want to allow you to ship warships. You have also seen that there are various clans controlling Jingzhou both inside and outside it. I am the Lord of Jingzhou in name only!"

Liu Biao sighed,

Maybe he was drunk and wanted to speak his mind.

"Your Majesty has said it. Now that the world is in chaos, only the people of Jingzhou are rich. This is all due to your merits." Chu Feng raised his glass and drank a bottle with him.

"Haha, haha, rich? What's the use of being rich? I have my eldest son Liu Qi and my second son Liu Cong. I have always loved Liu Qi, but now Liu Cong marries Cai's niece.

It’s obvious that I was asked to abolish my elders and establish my younger ones!

How could I not know that abolishing the elders and establishing younger ones is the way to cause chaos, but I am not the only one who has the final say in Jingzhou. The Cai family is the only one, and there are also checks and balances from the Kuai, Xi, Yang and other families."

"If I hadn't been able to draw a bow, I'm afraid the Cai family would have forced Liu Cong to be the lord of Jingzhou!" When Liu Biao said this, he sighed and drank another swig.

Chu Feng did not speak, because this was too normal. Since ancient times, the dispute between elders and younger ones has also been a battle between families. Now that Liu Qi represents Liu Biao and Liu Cong represents the aristocratic family, naturally Liu Cong takes the upper hand.

Facts have proved that Liu Biao was pressured to death, and Liu Cong succeeded to the throne immediately. It was considered as possible to save Liu Qi's life. The blame was on Ma Ma's entry into Jingzhou, so he could only take advantage of the situation.

But what puzzled Chu Feng was that Liu Biao specifically told him what the purpose was? Was it just drunken talk? Or was there some purpose?
