The Super Summoning System of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 767
As expected by Liu Bian, after Xun You finished speaking, Wei Xiaokuan stepped forward and said: "My minister agrees with your Majesty's attack on Jingzhou. Now my navy in Fancheng has only [-] troops. The terrain there is narrow, and it is difficult for the navy to grow. It is not enough to compete with the southern navy." Only by taking Jingzhou, can the navy develop and grow by relying on the Yangtze River. In the future, we can attack Jiangdong and go down the river."

"Yeah!" Liu Bian nodded in satisfaction.

"In fact, both of you can adopt a compromise method. Jingzhou wants to fight, but it doesn't need to fight all of them." At this time, Guo Jia stood up again and said to everyone.

"Oh? You mean to take part of Jingzhou?" Liu Bian said, looking at Guo Jia, his eyes lit up.

Guo Jia nodded with a smile and said, "That's right, Your Majesty wants to use Jingzhou to train the navy so that he can attack the south in the future. However, Xun Yu and the others think that attacking Jingzhou is too risky and they will go deep alone, so our army will only take Jingbei and take Go to Nanjun and Jiangxia. In this way, the Yangtze River can also be used to train the navy, and Nanyang can also be used as horns, so that the army will not go deep alone."

"That's also feasible. Jingzhou's riches and wealth are all in Jingbei. I will not take Jingnan and let Sun Ce occupy it. Jingnan is not enough to support the army. Instead, he has to guard against my attack."

"It's just that, except for the north, the three counties of Jingzhou are surrounded by other princes." Xun Yu said with a frown.

"Jingbei is easy to defend. You only need to occupy the main water and land routes. In the west, Nanjun defends Yizhou and defends Wuxian, Zigui, and Yiling. In the east, defends Dongwu and defends Xiazhi and Jinchun. There are many counties in the north and south, which can be defended." Guo Jia said with a smile.

"I don't have to worry about defending. Nanyang already has more than 15 troops. If we take Jingzhou, we can have [-] troops, which is more than enough to defend Nanyang. As for how much territory we can win this time, it depends on God's will." Liu Bian waved his hand and said.

"If your majesty insists on marching into Jingzhou, you need to make early preparations. There are only [-] troops in Nanyang now, and you have to guard against Zhao Kuangyin's troops in Yuzhou. There must not be many who can take them to Jingzhou. It may be enough to deal with Jiangdong, but Zhao Kuangyin will definitely not sit idly by. His Majesty took Jingzhou, so he will definitely send troops. So His Majesty has to mobilize troops from Luoyang." Xun Yu suggested.

Since he couldn't dissuade Liu Bian from sending troops to Jingzhou, he had to consider the matter carefully to ensure that nothing would go wrong. This is Xun Yu's way of being a minister.

Liu Bian nodded slightly, looked at Xun Yu and ordered: "Xun Yu, you first draft an order to summon Liu Yu, let him march into Jingzhou, and first resist Jiangdong's troops. In case of an emergency, you can act accordingly!"

"Order Tian Feng, Minister of the Household Department, to raise food and grass!"

"Leave an order to Li Xianzhong, Minister of the Ministry of War, to summon [-] elites. This time, I have decided to send troops to the army. Dian Wei, Yang Miaozhen, Yang Yansi, and Guo Jia will be the military advisers."

Among the generals, Yang Miaozhen, Yang Yansi, and Dian Wei will be Jiuqing, but they are accused of guarding the capital, patrolling the palace, and taking charge of chariots and horses.There is nothing important. After leaving, it can be handed over to the deputy.However, Guo Jia was undisciplined and didn't hold any important official positions. He just hung up a vacant position, and it didn't matter if he left Luoyang.

After Liu Bian ordered to go down, all the ministers went down to prepare for the expedition.

After Xun Yu returned to the yamen, he immediately drafted an order for Liu Yu, handed it to Liu Bian to stamp the seal, and sent someone to Nanyang quickly.

Two days later, outside Wancheng, Liu Yu received Liu Bian's imperial edict.

After receiving the imperial decree, Liu Yu immediately summoned the generals and ordered: "Your Majesty has ordered this general to send troops to Jingzhou. This general has decided to send [-] troops this time. Fu Youde and Gan Ning will lead the [-] navy first. This general will lead Huang Zhong , Yao Xing, and Xie Xuan led thirty thousand soldiers behind, while Zhang Liao stayed behind to guard Nanyang!"

"No!" The generals bowed their hands and took orders.

At the same time, Liu Qi was ordered by Liu Biao to rush to Jiangxia to see Wenpin.

Wenpin welcomed Liu Qi into the mansion, Liu Qi burst into tears and fell to the ground, Wenpin was shocked and said: "My lord, what's wrong with you?"

"General Wen, you want to avenge my father!"

Wenpin was shocked and said, "My lord, what happened to him?"

"Cai Mao is a thief. He led people to force my father to surrender to the court, and my father was so angry that he fell into a coma. Before my father woke up, Cai Mao added Mongolian sweat medicine to the medicine, which made my father unconscious for several days. He took the opportunity to set Liu As the governor, I asked the imperial court for help."

"What? How dare this Cai Mao?" Wenpin's eyes were full of disbelief. He originally thought that Cai Mao went to Jiangling to persuade Liu Biao, but he did not expect that things would develop so seriously.

"How is the lord?" Wenpin asked hastily.

"Father, he was fed sweat medicine by that bitch every day, and he was drowsy all day long, with no water or rice. Now he is emaciated and can't go to the ground. I'm afraid he won't survive." Liu Qi said with a sad face.

"Damn it, why did this Cai Mao do such a despicable thing? Don't worry, Eldest Prince, I will raise my troops to save the lord." Hearing Liu Qi's seriousness, Wen Pin was furious.

"Wait a minute, General Wen. My father left a letter before he passed out, and asked me to give it to the general. I also asked the general to read the letter and make a decision." Liu Qi took out Liu Biao's autographed letter from his pocket and handed it to Wen Pin.

Wenpin took the letter and saw that it was indeed Liu Biao's handwriting. In the letter, Liu Biao asked Wenpin to go north and join Zhao Kuangyin to find a way to keep his son.

Looking at the letter in his hand, Wenpin felt that it was so heavy that he couldn't lift it.

For taking refuge with Zhao Kuangyin, Wenpin resisted in his heart, and he also knew in his heart that Liu Biao was planning to die together, Wenpin didn't want that.After reading these letters from Tuogu and poor Liu Qi, Wenpin finally made a decision.

"Give me an order to abandon all fortifications and retreat to Nanjun." Wen Pin's face turned pale, and he ordered to the soldiers below.

"Ah? In this way, don't Jiangdong soldiers and horses want to drive straight in?" The soldier asked with a look of astonishment.

"Don't worry, General Cai has already prepared and set up an ambush ahead. You just need to retreat and keep Jiangdong's soldiers coming and going." Wen Pin ordered with a straight face.

"No!" The soldier was relieved when he heard the words, and hurried down to give an order.

"Young Master, don't worry, I'll gather my confidantes and lead you northward to vote for Zhao." Wen Pin looked at Liu Qi and said in relief.

"Thank you, General Wen, my father did not misunderstand you." Liu Qi said excitedly.

In the afternoon of the same day, Wenpin retreated eastward with an army of [-]. In the evening, Wenpin let the main force go first.He himself took five thousand confidants, in the name of inquiring about Jiangdong news, returned to the west, turned north again, and went to seek refuge with Zhao Kuangyin.

It is also the ancient generals who have strict orders, what the generals say is what they say, and the soldiers dare not violate it.Cai Mao took all the generals away, so no one doubted Wenpin.

The army headed west all the way, and because Wenpin ordered them to drive all night, the army didn't stop and rushed west all night towards Jiangling.

On the afternoon of that day, Zhou Yu's scouts found out that Jingzhou's soldiers and horses were retreating, and first sent Han Shizhong to lead a navy to inquire about the news.After discovering that Jingzhou soldiers and horses had retreated, all kinds of ambushes were taken, Zhou Yu was not polite, and doves occupied the magpie's nest, entered Jiangxia smoothly, and occupied the main roads of various water villages.

At the same time, he informed Sun Ce to quickly speed his troops northward to rendezvous.

At noon on the second day after Jingzhou soldiers and horses retreated, Cai Maocai encountered Jingzhou soldiers and horses retreating eastward on the road.
