Han Xiang

Chapter 420 Liu Bei Appeals to Liu Biao

"hiss"

After hearing this, Liu Ye thought it was true, and then he cupped his hands and saluted Zhao Fan: "Zilong is right, but it's me, Meng Lang."

"It's not about climbing high and low, I think General Zilong is a good-looking talent, and he will definitely not be in the pool in the future. Even if he doesn't become a sworn brother, he can still make friends. My brother may have already." Zhao Fan said in a sad tone at the end .

Liu Ye rolled his eyes when he saw this, and said with relief: "Don't be sad, the prefect. If you make your brother auspicious, he must still exist in the world. Just now you mentioned that the two brothers were separated in Yuzhou. Cao Cao rejected him there. He may be here Take office under Cao Cao?"

Zhao Yun spoke up and reminded: "According to the existing information, there is no general surnamed Zhao under Cao thief's command."

"Cao Cao only used the generals of the clan. The brother of Zhao Taishou may not be able to succeed in Cao Ying, and maybe he is still a small school." Liu Ye had to give a different opinion.

After listening to the discussion between the two, Zhao Fan waved his hands lightly and sighed, "Alas, I have asked someone to inquire in the past few years, and Xu Du has no news of his elder brother. He should not be in Cao Cao's army, or has already been."

Liu Ye continued to persuade: "The prefect must not be discouraged. You were separated from your elder brother in Yuzhou, and then came to Jingzhou from Runan with refugees. At that time, there were too many yellow scarves in the Central Plains. He would never go back to Hebei. Maybe he is the same as you." Are you heading south, too?"

"Going south?" Zhao Fan frowned: "If he also arrives in Jingzhou, it is impossible that there will be no news."

"Not all of them going south will go to Jingzhou, maybe it will be Yizhou or Yangzhou, and Xu. It should be impossible."

Liu Ye was analyzing for Zhao Fan, and mentioned that Xuzhou stopped abruptly. When Xuzhou was in the Yellow Turban, there were indeed a large number of refugees, but most of them died under Cao Cao's butcher knife.

He changed the topic and asked: "I don't know what to call Brother Ling? It is far from easy to find out when he goes to Yizhou Shangao Road, but if he goes to Yangzhou, maybe I can help to find out."

"That's right, Mr. Ziyang is from Huainan."

Zhao Fan first nodded in affirmation, and then showed a puzzled expression: "Huainan has not been peaceful these years, and sir is already in Jingzhou, can you really help me with this?"

Liu Ye laughed and said, "I came to Jingzhou alone, but my family is still in Huainan. If Brother Ling didn't change his name and surname, I believe he would be able to find it, but it will take some time, because Yangzhou is too big, and he might be living in Jiangdong."

"If you can find the whereabouts."

Zhao Fan wanted to make a big promise, but suddenly remembered that Liu Ye was a clan member of the Han Dynasty, and he seemed to have nothing to give, so he cupped his hands and bowed solemnly, and said: "My brother's name is Fan. Under special circumstances, brother should not change his name or surname."

"Extraordinary, your parents have high expectations." Liu Ye nodded slightly, stroked his beard and said seriously, "I will definitely ask people to inquire carefully, and send someone to Guiyang to deliver a letter as soon as there is news."

"Thank you."

Zhao Fan didn't dare to give himself too much hope, because the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment, but he could feel Liu Ye's sincerity.

The promise of JAC Celebrities has a certain amount of gold.

Zhao Fan's affection for Liu Ye doubled, and seeing Zhao Yun was more like seeing his brother, so he welcomed the two into the hall for a chat, and directly looked at the old Huang Zhong who was dumbfounded.

Huang Zhongyuan thought that Liu Pan would do too much, and felt that he would be able to do it well if he opened the way, but Liu Ye made friends with Zhao Fan so quickly with his sharp tongue.

Is it so easy to make friends with the Sheriff?Huang Zhong patted his forehead, thinking that he was not dreaming, right?

Haven't my half of my life been in vain?If he had Liu Ye's three-point eloquence, he wouldn't still be a captain by now.

What made Huang Zhong even more surprised was that during the conversation with Zhao Fan, Liu Ye mentioned that he had not solved the ship problem, and Zhao Fan immediately said that he would transfer eight cargo ships from Guiyang to help.

Zhao Fan has been in the officialdom for the past few years, and he knows that when looking for someone to do something, he must first be courteous.

Eight cargo ships squeezed together, and Zhao Yun was able to take away two hundred soldiers.

Even if half of the northerners have the conditions to march by water, no one is willing to throw ham.

No matter during the marching time, or for food, rest and other purposes, the waterway is undoubtedly the best choice.

With the help of Zhao Fan, Zhao Yun and Liu Ye quickly sailed northward and arrived in Xiangyang in mid-December, bringing Liu Biao the first-hand news of Yuzhang.

Liu Biao wanted to praise Liu Ye at the welcome banquet, but was interrupted by Liu Bei and invited him to the toilet.

Walking out of the main hall and on the way to the latrine, Liu Biao held Liu Bei with a curious expression on his face, "Xuande deliberately lured me out of the hall. Could there be something important? I'm planning to reward Ziyang."

Liu Bei replied in a low voice: "Brother, please be safe and don't be impatient, Bei is just speaking for Zi Yang."

"Huh?" Liu Biao frowned suddenly.

Liu Bei grabbed Liu Biao and continued on his way, analyzing in a low voice as he walked: "Bei thought that elder brother should not reward Ziyang, even if he should praise him too much. First of all, the battle of Yuzhang is not completely over yet, and it is not yet known whether he will fight Zhou Yu fiercely;
The second son, Yang, offered to abandon the ship to protect the people. Although it was a good thing for the whole Jingzhou, it failed General Cai's support. Did you notice the expressions of the generals just now?Neither seems to be good;

In the end, I think that to weaken Ziyang's contribution, it is best to let the outside world mistakenly believe that it is Huang Taishou or Mr. Liu Pan's military strategy, so that Zhou Yu and Sun Quan will be afraid. "

Liu Biao nodded frequently when he heard it, and stopped in the corridor halfway and said affirmatively: "Xuande is still thinking about Zhou Xiang. I was too excited and in a trance just now, so I almost missed the important thing."

"Brother is good at accepting advice, so he must not miss a big deal."

After Liu Bei complimented him, he changed the subject: "I just heard that Zhou Lang is scheming, and I'm worried that the evacuation with Huang Taishou and the people may not go smoothly."

Liu Biao suddenly smiled and said, "Xuande, don't think wildly. It doesn't matter if Zhou Lang has schemes. Ziyang's schemes are also good. In short, there will be news about them in Changsha in ten days or so. Let's hurry up and go. Waiting."

"Hey" Liu Bei nodded in response.

After being reminded by Liu Bei, Liu Biao returned to the table to observe, and found that Cai Mao and the others were not looking right, so they only talked about the war and not about people, weakening Liu Ye's contribution.

Jian'an seven years, late December.

With Huang Zu and Liu Pan all withdrawing to Jingzhou, the battle of Yuzhang came to an end.

The evacuation process was very smooth at first, but as Zhang Shuo led the rear army to go out to sea, and Deng Long led a small number of warships to appear in Peng Lize, Zhou Yu was keenly aware of Huang Zu's conspiracy.

While dispatching scouts to investigate, Zhou Yu decisively divided his troops into two routes and headed south at the same time. As a result, Zhang Shuo withdrew towards Jianchang as planned, while Deng Long's troops took advantage of the Gan River to countercurrent and dealt with the Jiangdong navy near Peng Lize.

The terrain in Haihun and Jianchang was dangerous, and Zhou Yu refused to let the army go deep into the valley to pursue him. He took advantage of Jiangdong's superiority in the navy, mobilized the warships to rush in and cut off Deng Long's back, and finally captured the general Deng Long in Ganshui.

Deng Long miscalculated the capabilities of Zhou Yu's navy and was captured, but Huang Zu was able to control the timing of the attack. When the Jiangdong fleet arrived in Nanchang waters, the bustling city of Nanchang was empty.

The Jiangdong fleet pursued to the upper reaches of the Jin River and Yuan River. Zhou Yu only saw the wreckage of the abandoned warships, which were the traces of Huang Zu's painful burning.

The marching traces on both sides of the river show where the people of Nanchang went.

Zhou Yu picked up a burnt board, feeling like being played by Huang Zu, then looked in the direction of Jiuling, and fainted on the shore in a hurry.
