"Since Cao Cao and Sun Quan are ready to fight, we can't be idle. According to Shi Yuan, where should we go?"
"My lord is far-sighted and has a sharp vision. He has already made a plan. We are just implementing it!" Pang Tong smiled and said, "The weather is still a bit cold now, which is not conducive to sending troops. However, if Cao Cao and Sun Quan want to be prepared, they still need to It will take two to three months, so we only need to step up training of soldiers and stock up on food and grass."
"Ji Chang, how many troops do we have now?"
"My lord, the camps of Wei Yan and Huang Zhong each have 20,000 soldiers and horses. Shangyong's total soldiers and horses also have 20,000. There are 5,000 soldiers and horses in Xiangyang City, 3,000 soldiers and horses in Fan City, 5,000 soldiers and horses in Zhangling, and 7 thousand soldiers and horses in Nanjun. There are thousands of soldiers and horses, and each of the four counties in Jingnan also has five thousand soldiers and horses, but most of these soldiers and horses are new soldiers, and they need to be trained for a period of time before they can have combat effectiveness."
"I am ordering all the generals and captains to seize the time to train. Ji Chang must ensure an adequate supply of food and grass for the soldiers. At the same time, during the training period, they must eat one meal of meat every day!"
"No!"
"Gongwei got in touch with Ma Teng and Han Sui, gradually restored trade with the Western Regions, and reopened the Silk Road."
"No!"
"Report to your lord, Liu Bei of Jiangxia sent someone to send the eldest son Liu Qi, saying that he has been appointed as the governor of Jingzhou by the emperor's order. Please send someone to greet him!" At this moment, a soldier came in to report.
"I'm really talking about Cao Cao, Cao Cao is here!" Liu Cong blurted out.
"Say Cao Cao, Cao Cao has arrived!" Pang Tong frowned, but soon he suddenly realized, "What my lord said is really wonderful! It is indeed said Cao Cao, Cao Cao has arrived."
"Yes! My lord has a keen eye, I can't wait!" Everyone wasted no time in complimenting him.
Liu Cong was a little confused. He just said it casually. He didn't expect that this sentence is not popular yet, but it is appropriate to use it here.
"Where are you now?"
¡°We¡¯ve passed Nan County!¡±
"Call Liu Pan to lead a thousand soldiers and horses to greet him."
"No!"
"The governor's office is located in the governor's office. Ji Chang will make arrangements."
"No!"
"Everyone, go down and get ready!"
"No!"
When it was getting dark, Liu Pan led his troops and horses into Xiangyang City in a hurry. Among the troops and horses, there was a carriage with a curtain tightly covering it. Liu Pan's face was gloomy until he arrived at the door of the Prefecture Mufu.
Soldiers had already reported it to Liu Cong, and Liu Cong led the officials of the Prefecture Mufu and Cai and his wife to greet him at the door.
?? In Gong, Liu Qi is the governor of Jingzhou, in private, Liu Qi is Liu Cong's eldest brother, so Liu Cong must welcome him, otherwise he will be criticized.
"My lord" After Liu Pan saw Liu Cong, he quickly got off his horse and knelt on the ground.
"No gifts!"
"My lord, III have disgraced my mission, please punish me, lord!" Liu Pan did not get up.
"Liu Pan, what happened?"
"My lord, the eldest son he he is dead"
"What?"
Not only Liu Cong, but everyone screamed in surprise after hearing this. At the same time, some people looked at Liu Cong unconsciously.
"What's going on?" Liu Cong asked hurriedly.
"My lord, when we arrived outside Zigui County at the end of the day, Jian Yong and Zhao Yun were already waiting there. Jian Yong said that the eldest son felt cold and unwell and was resting in the carriage, so they did not rush on their way and waited there. I didn't think much about it, so they After they left, there was still no movement in the carriage for about half an hour. The general felt strange and sent soldiers to call the eldest son, but there was no answer. When he opened the curtain, he found that the eldest son was dead. The body was also rigor mortis.¡±
"Liu Bei, you despicable villain!" When Liu Cong heard this, he was filled with anger and hatred. Although he and Liu Qi had no blood relationship, let alone feelings, Liu Qi was very kind to Liu Bei. ah! If Liu Qi had not rescued him in time, Liu Bei would have been killed by Cao Cao long ago. If Liu Qi had not taken him in in Jiangxia, Liu Bei would still be homeless. How would Liu Bei harm such a benefactor?
"Ji Chang, send a message immediately to expose Liu Bei's crimes. I will send troops to attack Jiangxia!"
"No!"
"My Lord, no!" Pang Tong stopped him hastily, "My Lord, this is Kong Ming's plan!"
"Shi Yuan is saying"
"My lord, just imagine, now the eldest son dies in Xiangyang, but we say it was Liu Bei who killed him, and the people of Jingzhou willWhat do you think, what will the aristocratic family think? Moreover, at this time, Jiangxia is already making a big fuss. If we issue a statement, wouldn't we be trying to hide it? "
"Yes, my lord, Shi Yuan is right!" Ma Liang also said.
"Could it bethat my eldest brother's death should be in vain!" Liu Cong was furious. There must be a conflict between him and Liu Bei, but Liu Qi is an innocent person! Even if he wasn't his eldest brother, he couldn't accept using a person's life to carry out his strategy.
"Cong'er, let's bury the eldest son!" Ms. Cai did not panic.
When she learned that Liu Qi was coming to Xiangyang to be the governor of Jingzhou, Cai was very nervous. Wasn't Liu Qi's purpose just to compete with his son for Jingzhou? Today's Jingzhou was snatched from Cao Cao's thieves with his son's sword and shot. It was not passed down by Liu Biao, so what qualifications does Liu Qi have to fight for it. It would be better to die now, nothing would happen.
"My lord, what the old lady said makes sense. Let's bury the eldest son first and wait for a while to see how Liu Bei will act." Pang Tong said this, but he knew in his heart that they were already at their wits' end at this time.
"Okay!" Liu Cong nodded, "Zhouping, Gongwei, you two will handle my eldest brother's funeral. It will be carried out according to the etiquette of the governor."
"No!"
The next day, just after Xiangyang City announced that the eldest son Liu Qi had died of illness, news suddenly came out that in order to dominate Jingzhou, Liu Cong had killed the Jingzhou governor who had just been personally appointed by the emperor, Liu Cong's eldest brother Liu Qi.
Immediately afterwards, discussions about Liu Cong began in the streets and alleys.
"Have you heard? Mr. Zhou Mu will kill the eldest son!"
"The eldest son is a loyal man and has nothing wrong with him!"
"Of course there is nothing wrong with him, but he shouldn't be the governor of Jingzhou!"
"That's right, don't you think you want to fight for Jingzhou?"
"But the eldest son wants to fight, it's just and natural!"
¡°Be careful what you say, be careful what you say, beware of disaster coming from your mouth!¡±
In the study room of the Zhou Mu Mansion, Liu Cong's face was full of anger, and Ma Zhong and Liu Pan were kneeling next to them, who were trembling.
"What does your Tianwang camp do for food?" Liu Cong's voice seemed to come from hell. "You receive double the food and salary, and you don't have to fight on the battlefield, so you just serve me like this?"
"My lord, forgive me, but I didn't expect that so many rumors would spread in the city overnight. Someone must be plotting"
"Ma Zhong, listen, I don't care who is plotting, and I don't care what methods you use. I only give you three days to make this rumor disappear!"
