Chapter 114
Yu Fan was overjoyed: "So, Fan once again thanked Huang Taishou."
Huang Zu also laughed unceasingly, "What did Zhong Xiang say, from now on we are in-laws, and helping each other is what we should do."
Although Yu Fan despised him in his heart, he could only laugh along with him.Who makes the situation stronger than people?The Sun family has plummeted now, and has no power at all, and can only rely on others.
So, the guests and the host were happy, and Huang Zu sent a letter to Liu Qing the next day, asking Liu Qing to take care of Fu Youde.
The relationship between Huang Zu and Liu Qing was ordinary and they were not familiar with each other, but Huang Zu had a good relationship with Liu Biao, Liu Qing's uncle.Therefore, Liu Qing still respected Huang Zu. Even though his status was almost the same as that of Huang Zu, he still treated Huang Zu as his disciple.
Liu Qing was also a little embarrassed when he received Huang Zu's letter.After he solved the rebellion of Zhang Xian and Huan Jie, he began to take charge of the military administration of Changsha County.
Zhang Xian died and Huan Jie surrendered.But Huan Jie was a celebrity, Liu Qing did not make things difficult for him, and still kept him as an official in the prefect's mansion.
Speaking of the rebellion of Zhang Xian and Huan Jie in Changsha, it was actually Cao Cao's counterattack against Liu Biao.Because of the friction between Cao Cao and Liu Biao, Cao Cao asked the emperor to decree to canonize the prefects of the four counties in the south of the Yangtze River. Therefore, these four counties all turned to Cao Cao and refused to accept Liu Biao's dispatch.
There was a fire in Liu Biao's backyard, so the four counties in the south of the Yangtze River had to be put down first.During this process, Liu Qing, who performed well, began to take over the position, took charge of Changsha's military administration, and became an anonymous prefect of Changsha.
It was also the use of troops this time that made Liu Biao covet Yuzhang.First, Zhuge Xuan was appointed as the prefect of Yuzhang (Zhuge Xuan had a different ending in the history books. Three "Three Kingdoms" said that he died of illness in Nanyang, and Pei Songzhi commented that he was killed by Zhu Hao, the prefect of Yuzhang appointed by Cao Cao, and his head was given to Liu Yao), Then Liu Qing and Huang Zu were sent to attack Sun Ben and Xu Sheng (Chai Sang Ling at that time).
Now Yuzhang is owned by Zhang Yi, and Liu Qing often confronts Fu Youde.Relying on his own bravery and the bravery of his subordinate Huang Zhong, he can only fight evenly with Fu Youde.
Fu Youde was not as brave as Huang Zhong, but he used his troops very well. He confined Liu Qing to Ai County and could not go east.After several battles, Liu Qing's soldiers suffered a lot, and he has rarely launched attacks in the past few months.
But when Huang Zu's letter arrived, Liu Qing was in trouble. He called Huang Zhong to discuss, "Hansheng, Jiangxia Governor Huang sent a letter, inviting me to attack Yuzhang together. The elders dare not resign, but our soldiers are not good. What can I do?"
After reading the letter, Huang Zhong said: "Zhang Yi is now attacking Danyang, and it is time to take Yuzhang. Our soldiers are not skilled, so we can restrain Fu Yi and let Huang Taishou attack Chaisang. Chaisang will go down immediately. With Poyang Lake in hand, Fu Yi will face the enemy."
When Liu Qing heard the words, he mobilized his troops immediately and went straight to Haihun.Fu Youde was stationed in the sea, and when he heard Liu Qing and Huang Zhong's attack, he immediately felt strange.
"Liu Qing had lost a lot of troops before, why did he attack suddenly? I'm afraid he came prepared! Order the counties to pay attention to defense, especially Chaisang, and tell General Zhang Shun to always pay attention to Jiangxia's movements."
Fu Youde led the troops to fight, but Liu Qing fought and left. He didn't confront Fu Youde at all, which was very different from the behavior of the previous criminals.Fu Youde was even more determined, the enemy must have tricks, so he sent more fast horses and told Chaisang to pay attention to defense.
After receiving Fu Youde's order, Zhang Shun immediately sent out the sentry boat, and within a day he got the news that Jiangxia's navy was invading.
"Report! General! There are hundreds of warships of the Jiangxia Navy going down the river. They are so menacing that they will overwhelm the crowd!"
Zhang Shun couldn't help but gasped after hearing this.Chaisang has five hundred soldiers, and Chaisang's mouth is only about fifteen thousand. It is impossible to deal with less than ten thousand people.
If Zhang Shun was an arrogant person, he might still think that he could defend Huang Zu's attack.But Zhang Shun was a fish merchant. Although he had served in the army for several years and became a general, he was not very good at commanding troops in battle, so he would inevitably feel guilty when facing an enemy army several times larger than himself.
Therefore, Zhang Shun immediately wrote to Fu Youde, asking for reinforcements.
As a result, as soon as the reporter left, someone came to Chaisang holding the seal ribbon issued by Zhang Yi.
"Under Liu Yuanjing, I am ordered by the lord to be Chaisang's order!"
"My lord, Li Bao, was ordered by the lord to be the deputy general of the navy."
Zhang Shun raised his hands to welcome Liu Yuanjing's arrival, but he didn't welcome Li Bao very much.Chaisang is his part-time job. If you do well, you don't get much credit, but if you lose it, you have a great responsibility. If someone comes to take over Chaisang, he is of course happy.But the navy is different. The navy is his territory. All the soldiers of the navy were trained by him step by step with Li Jun, and then expanded step by step to achieve the scale it is today.
Humans are also in the category of animals, and animals have a sense of territory. Zhang Shun's territory is the navy of Chaisangkou.Of course he is not happy that someone is going to invade his territory now.
Liu Yuanjing also saw Zhang Shun's displeasure, so he said to Zhang Shun: "This Lieutenant Li was born in the lord's personal army, and he is extremely brave. His brother was injured in order to protect Shi Jin, and Shi Jin was also killed by the lord for this." Dismissed from the military, you should know about this."
"I've heard about it!" Zhang Shun looked at Li Bao in surprise.
Liu Yuanjing continued: "Before Shi Jin abandoned his army, Lieutenant Li personally led the troops to repel Cheng Pu's attack."
Zhang Shun has also admired Cheng Pu for a long time. Sun Jian's veterans have been famous for a long time. , this Li Bao seems to be a bit smart.And since the lord wants him to come, there must be intentions, so Zhang Shun is not going to make things difficult for him.
"However, do you know how the navy fights?" Zhang Shun asked.
"I understand a little bit!" Li Bao said, "I'm from the Cheng clan, and there is a river near my house!"
“Haha——” Zhang Shun laughed, “The rivers in the north are nothing more than small streams!”
"I think so too! That's why I came to see how wide the river in the south is!" Li Bao said flatteringly.
Li Bao's words were very helpful to Zhang Shun, "Okay! You two! Now that the lord has made arrangements, I will hand over Chai Sang to Mr. Liu. Chai Sang has five hundred soldiers, and I will meet you at Chai Sangkou Village. helping each other!"
Liu Yuanjing didn't care much, "Chai Sang's eloquence is Huang Zu's main point of attack, I will support you!"
Zhang Shun's smile stopped suddenly, and then he silently took Li Bao back to Chaisangkou, waiting for the arrival of Huang Zu's navy.
Huang Zu's water army went down the river and came straight to Chaisang, but he did not land near Chaisang, but went straight to Chaisangkou to attack the water village.
As Liu Yuanjing said, his goal is not Chaisang City, but Chaisangkou, and what he wants is Poyang Lake!
