As the news of the Battle of Jiangxia spread, the whole world was shocked by Jingzhou's actions this time. Jingzhou, which had always been cowardly and only knew how to defend, took the initiative to attack, and even regarded Jiangdong's peace talks as if nothing had happened.
The princes who had just received this news all felt sorry for the recklessness of Jingzhou. It was obvious that Cao Cao was making trouble behind the scenes, and it was ridiculous that Jingzhou had to use troops to Jiangdong under such turmoil.
Jiangdong is strong and Jingzhou is weak. No matter from any aspect, Jingzhou has no hope of winning. Some families even decide privately whether to withdraw the voice of Jingzhou. You must know that once Jiangdong attacks the hinterland of Jingzhou, the entire Jingzhou will be the same.
They will become a battlefield, and there will be no business to be done.
However, thinking about the fact that Sun Jian of Jiangdong failed in Jiangdong a few years ago, these aristocratic families secretly endured it and sent people to pay close attention to the situation in Jiangxia. Once Jingzhou was defeated, withdraw some of the people first. Otherwise, if the fight occurs, the loss will be their own.
.
But the following news shocked the world.
The shock was actually defeated, and the defeat was so severe.
Twenty thousand Jiangdong naval forces were defeated and most of the navy were captured, and only a few people fled back to Jiangdong. Jiangdong general Ling Cao was even killed by Ganning, Jingzhou. This news immediately increased Ganning's reputation again.
Gan Ning was originally just a thief and no one cared about it, but since he followed Liu Qi, he made continuous achievements and even protected Liu Qi and rushed out of Jiangdong. He then tied with Zhang Xiu, the Marquis of Xuanwei. It was not until then that Gan Ning was truly
After entering the eyes of the world, Gan Ning killed the general Ling Cao, and everyone realized that Gan Ning was not inferior to a first-class general.
If the news of Gan Ning defeating the Jiangdong Navy had already shocked everyone, the subsequent series of defeats in Jiangdong shocked all the princes in the world.
For the princes in the world, there is no difference in the outcome of a war, but this time it is different. The Flying Tiger Army, which has never left Xiangyang, suddenly appeared in Jiangdong. Not only did it take down Jiangdong Chongcheng Chaisang, but later
Shocking the Jiangdong army into the hinterland of Jiangdong, a series of actions were intimately cooperated with the Feilong Army.
In the hearts of all the princes, the dispatch of the Flying Tiger Army represents a signal, that is, Jingzhou is no longer the Jingzhou it used to be, and Jingzhou is about to begin to expand. In connection with the series of changes in Jingzhou in the past few months, it undoubtedly shows that
These changes are related to Liu Qi, who is now in the limelight in Jingzhou.
At the same time, Zhuge Liang also came into the sight of the princes in the world for the first time. The princes from all walks of life could not believe it. The one who could make the layout rigorously and force the soldiers and horses of Jiangdong to desperately jump into the river was actually a person who was only over 20 years old.
The youth.
The sudden changes in Jingzhou shocked the whole world, and all the princes began to secretly figure out how to treat Jingzhou, which had never been looked down upon before.
All the princes understand that Jingzhou has changed!
Liu Qi from Xiangyang knew nothing about the shock of the princes in the world, but he was worried about who would replace Wang Wei to guard Pengze.
Wang Wei was the commander of the Flying Tiger Army and one of the two pillars of Jingzhou. He went to guard a small Pengze but was a little useless.
Moreover, the Flying Tiger Army led by Wang Wei has always been known for its invincibility of attack and invincibility. Wang Wei himself became famous for his might. Liu Qi also felt that it was inappropriate to let such a powerful general and a strong army garrison Pengze.
.
Thinking of this, Liu Qi couldn't help but smile bitterly. Although it was beneficial to Jingzhou to attack the hinterland of Jiangdong, if he wanted to defend these two small counties in Jiangdong, he would also have to restrain a general in Jingzhou.
"Will Kong Ming really ask me a problem?" Liu Qi shook his head and smiled bitterly, but he was extremely happy. As long as he could stop Jiangdong's rise, even if the two generals were restrained, he would be willing to do so.
Finally, Liu Qi thought about it and decided that Ran Wenpin led 10,000 Feilong Army to guard Pengze, and it would not be too late to change it when he had the right personnel in the future.
"Let Wenpin lead 20,000 Feilong Army to guard Pengze Chaisang, Gan Ning leads 10,000 naval troops to stay in Jiangxia, and together with Wenpin, guarding Jiangdong, Ma Liang as the prefect of Jiangxia, Zhuge Liang, Wang Wei and 20,000 naval troops to return
Xiangyang." Liu Qi raised his head and looked at Jia Xu beside him.
Wenpin led 10,000 Feilong Army to guard Pengze, which was enough to resist the attack of Jiangdong. Ganning led 10,000 naval forces not only to guard against Jiangdong's naval forces at any time, otherwise once Wenpin and Jiangxia were cut off, Pengze would be in danger.
Jiangxia and Ma Liang led tens of thousands of Jiangxia troops, which was enough to guard Jiangxia to ensure that there would be no chaos in Jiangxia.
"No." Jia Xu nodded, and after a quick writing, a bamboo slip had been written. After Liu Qi looked at it, he immediately sent it out.
"Lord, I wonder if the envoy sent to Xudu has been confirmed?" Jia Xu thought for a while and asked.
"Haha, what candidate does Wenhe have?" Liu Qi smiled and said. If Jia Xu had not thought about the candidate in his heart, he would never say it. However, Liu Qi was very happy to see that Jia Xu could take the initiative to handle Jingzhou affairs.
.
"Lord, Song Zhongzi has a high prestige in Jingzhou, and Song Zhongzi has always been the ones in Jingzhou. Now the report he sent to Liu Jingzhou is the most appropriate." Jia Xu said expressionlessly.
Song Zhongzi was as famous as Pang Degong and Sima Hui in Jingzhou, and had a high prestige. His disciples were even spread all over the Jingxiang area. To win over Song Zhongzi could not only make Song Zhongzi's disciples use for Liu Qi, but also appease Liu Biao's former ministers, otherwise the emperor would be the emperor.
The former ministers of Jingzhou will definitely not feel at ease.
Liu Qi has been dismissing former officials of Liu Biao these days and promoting some young officials who have achieved success. Although they are only some officials at the bottom, they still make the old ministers in high positions feel uneasy.
Whether it is a military general or a strategist, Liu Qi was too young and had made more or less military achievements in the past few months. If Liu Qi wanted to promote them, he would naturally let the former high-ranking officials in Jingzhou give way to them.
"Then you will take a trip in person and tell Song Zhongzi that this trip is related to the majesty of Jingzhou and cannot be ignored. Let him handle it carefully." Song Zhongzi Liu Qi has seen him several times and has a good impression of him. This person still supports him in advance.
Among some officials, Song Zhongzi is versatile and unlucky. Xu is not only related to the alternation of power in Jingzhou, but also to the future development of Jingzhou. Jia Xu will explain to Song Zhongzi, who should know what to do.
.
"Let Ma Su and Xin Chang follow him to Xudu for a while, it is also a training experience. Let them not interfere in Song Zhongzi's sleep, and let Song Zhongzi ignore the two of them, just don't let them get into trouble."
Liu Qi suddenly thought of Xin Chang who had come here recently and felt a move in his heart.
Xin Chang and Ma Su are not very different from each other, and they can communicate with each other. It is better to travel thousands of miles than reading thousands of books. Xin Chang and Liu Qi don’t know what will happen in the future, but Ma Su and Liu Qi will no longer let him follow the old path in history.
It's right.
"Don't worry, lord, Song Zhongzi is very knowledgeable. In the past, Liu Jingzhou was not strong, so he naturally would not go too far. This time he went to Xudu not only represents Liu Jingzhou, but also represents lord. I think he knows how to do it.
"Jia Xu smiled and said, in fact, he was a little worried. Liu Qi directly changed all the officials in Jingzhou, so he gave a reminder.
"Is there any news coming back to Wancheng?" Thinking that Zhuge Liang was about to return to Xiangyang, Liu Qi thought of Pang Tong in Wancheng.
"The news from Wancheng is transmitted back every three days. Everything in Wancheng is calm. Now Military Commander Pang and General Wei have completely controlled Wancheng and its surrounding counties, and Cao's army in Shangyong and Fancheng are also relatively calm. There is nothing
Provocation." Jia Xu thought for a while.
"Then let Pang Shiyuan come back, and the matter about Wancheng will be left to Wei Yan, and Wei Yan will be fully handled." Liu Qi thought for a while and said.
In history, Wei Yan was guarding Hanzhong and resisting Cao Cao's troops for ten years, preventing Cao's army from crossing the line. Wei Yan, a small Wancheng, would not be unable to defend.
"Haha, there is another thing that the lord needs to know. General Wei has sent back the message for the third time and wants to come back." Speaking of Wei Yan, Jia Xu suddenly spoke.
After hearing Jia Xu say this, Liu Qi suddenly realized that Wei Yan sent back two messages that everything was decided in Wancheng, and it was useless for him to stay in Wancheng. He wanted to return to Xiangyang to fight for Liu Qi, but Liu Qi just smiled at this.
After leaving it alone, Wei Yan actually asked to come back again.
"Send someone to tell Wei Yan that as long as you guard Wancheng well, he will be the vanguard next time you start a war." Liu Qi shook his head and said. Although Wei Yan looked calm, Liu Qi knew that he was a person who could not stay idle.
"It's the lord who knows General Wei." Jia Xu smiled and said. Although he didn't have much contact, he also had some understanding of Wei Yan. Liu Qi did this to undoubtedly grasp Wei Yan's weakness.
"Wei Yan is a general, but he still lacks some hardship. It is extremely beneficial to him to hold on to the two top generals under Wancheng and Cao Cao." Liu Qi shook his head and said, in Jingzhou, it was just a small fight, and in the future, he was just a small fight.
Leaving Jingzhou is the real cruel showdown. Liu Qi doesn't want the generals under his command to be above the top and are asymmetrical with their abilities.
"I'm wondering what expression would happen if Cao Cao saw his lord's memorial?" Jia Xu twitched. He had seen Liu Qi's memorial and secretly made people think a lot. Jia Xu was difficult for him to do.
Imagine how much expression he would look after seeing the memorial with Cao Cao's suspicious personality.
When it comes to the memorial, Liu Qi shook his head and said nothing. The memorial was not only targeted by Cao Cao, but also against Emperor Xian of Han. When his mother died, Emperor Xian of Han was just a child over ten years old. It was not good for his mother to have this strength around him.
There must be power behind him, and this is Liu Qi's purpose.
Although they are both Han Dynasty, they are now strangers and regard them as enemies.
