Zhou Yu shook his head and said with a smile: "My lord, this time when we enter Nanyang, we will definitely encounter Liu Rui's ambushes. If we stop, those ambush soldiers will be more and more prepared, and we will become more and more difficult to guard against. !"

"Then let's order the army to speed up." Sun Ce nodded, and then opened his mouth to give an order.Lazy people listen to the book www.lanren9.com

Zhou Yu hurriedly stopped Sun Ce and said, "Master! If we march forward, we will be caught by Liu Rui's ambush!"

Sun Ce looked at Zhou Yu speechlessly, and couldn't help sighing, "Then Gongjin, do you mean to go or not?"

"Let's go, but don't be impatient. Let's go the same way in the past, and we can even go slower!" Zhou Yu said with a smile.

"Okay! Then do as you said, Zhou Gongjin!" Sun Ce nodded heavily and added at the end, "When the time is right, we will speed up our progress!"

When Sun Ce was about to give the order, Zhou Yu raised his hand again and said, "My lord, since Cao Mengde has the same thoughts as us, then we might as well send an envoy to contact Cao Mengde, maybe in the coming days about the assignment in Jingzhou. When we discuss a result, we will be able to avoid disputes at that time!”

Sun Ce pondered for a moment, then nodded heavily and said, "Gong Jin is very right, so let's do it like this! You go and choose a messenger, and you will be solely responsible for this matter!"

Zhou Yu nodded, and then chatted with Sun Ce about other matters in the army. The conversation between the two did not end until the evening.And the messenger who went to find Cao Cao also ran north all the way in the evening.

The reactions of the two armies were also gradually noticed by the scouts in Jingzhou, but because the city around Nanyang was occupied by Liu Rui's army, the information was spread to Nanyang a long time later.

And Sima Yi, who was supervising the military in Nanyang, naturally received this news at the first time, and this news also confirmed some of Sima Yi's previous speculations about the two princes.

Sun Ce now occupies Yuzhou, and it is next to Jingzhou. If he wanted to send troops, he would have reached Nanyang long ago. But until now, Sun Ce's army has only just emerged on the border of Jingzhou, which is enough to explain a lot of problems.

And Cao Cao's Gunzhou is not far from Nanyang, Jingzhou, but now it is stationed near Yexian. It is said that he encountered Liu Rui's army to block it, but Sima Yi is very clear in his heart, I am afraid that even without Liu Rui's troops , then Cao Cao will also use excuses to delay time!

These two people are waiting, waiting for the Jingzhou Army and Liu Rui of Nanyang City to fight to the death, and they will only appear when the time is right.

At that time, Liu Rui was driven away, and the entire Jingzhou had no self-protection power.At that time, even if Cao Cao's army and Sun Ce's army were recharged, even if they made excessive demands on Liu Biao, Liu Biao did not have any strength to refuse.

To be honest, at that time, it is unknown whether Liu Biao will be able to live to that time!If Nanyang City were broken and Liu Biao died, then the entire Jingzhou would become a land without owners. At that time, even if Cao Cao and others occupied Jingzhou, no one would say anything at all.

Sima Yi had already suspected this matter for a long time, and now, it is only the speculation in his heart that has been confirmed.

And this guess, Sima Yi thought of it a long time ago, but never mentioned it to Liu Biao, and even to some extent, Sima Yi helped Cao Cao and Sun Ce conceal this intention. , , .

576: At the beginning of the lack of food

The reason why Sima Yi did not talk to Liu Biao about his speculation was that Liu Biao had previously been tempted to surrender.

If Liu Biao were to know that the reinforcements from Cao Cao and Sun Ce were here to kill him, he would soon fall into despair... Then Cao Cao and Sun Ce were coming to divide up his Jingzhou, and Liu Rui was also here to snatch his Jingzhou.

If it falls into the hands of Cao Cao and Sun Ce, I am afraid that Liu Biao will never have any chance of life.In the hands of Liu Rui, at least he can enjoy a lifetime of glory and wealth like Liu Zhang.

In this case, Liu Biao will naturally surrender to Liu Rui!

Sima Yi could guess these things even with his toes.It is precisely because of this that Sima Yi chose to conceal this matter from Liu Biao. If Liu Biao surrendered to Liu Rui, then Sima Yi would have absolutely no chance of survival!

Moreover, Liu Biao knew that Liu Rui was chasing and killing Sima Yi at the beginning, so he could not say that Liu Biao would directly capture Sima Yi and hand him over to Liu Rui in order to survive!Based on Sima Yi's understanding of Liu Biao, such a thing is absolutely possible!

Sima Yi not only blocked the news himself, but also took advantage of the tension in Nanyang, and Cao Cao and Sun Ce's scouts nearby all mobilized to visit the horse.In this way, the sources of news of the two lords and horses were completely cut off.

It's just that Sima Yi didn't mention it, but Liu Biao never forgot about the two feudal vassals. Today, he called Sima Yi to his side again to ask about it.

"Zhongda, is there any news about Cao Mengde and Sun Bofu recently?" Liu Biao couldn't help but be a little puzzled. Logically, since Liu Bei was able to arrive, Cao Cao and Sun Ce should have arrived in Nanyang long ago!

When Sima Yi heard Liu Biao's words, he panicked a little, and looked at Liu Biao with some doubts.However, there was no anger in Liu Biao's eyes, instead he was full of doubts.

Seeing Liu Biao's expression, Sima Yi also came over, knowing that Liu Biao was just asking casually, and he immediately cupped his hands and said: "Mr. Qi, I have ordered the scouts to visit the horses to check the situation. If there is any news about them, my subordinates will definitely first. Notify the lord at once."

"So good, but Cao Mengde and Sun Bofu are closer to our Jingzhou, why did they come later than Brother Xuande?" Liu Biao couldn't help but hurriedly asked.

"My lord, if Liu Rui's army can ambush Duke Xuande's men, they will naturally make corresponding arrangements for Cao Mengde and Sun Bofu's men. Judging from the inferences of his subordinates, even Cao Mengde and others have no way to come. Nanyang, I'm afraid it can also contain part of Liu Rui's army, so that Liu Rui can't do his best to attack our Nanyang!" Sima Yi talked eloquently, but when talking about these things, Liu Bei on the side was staring straight at him. .

Liu Biao nodded, but was a little worried: "I'm afraid that they will be scattered. If they are defeated by that Liu Rui, I'm afraid there will be no way to rescue us Nanyang!"

These worries of Liu Biao are not unreasonable. In the past, Liu Bei marched day and night, and the news was very strict, but even so, Liu Rui was still informed in advance, and he set up an ambush in the Dafu Mountain. If Cao Cao and If Sun Ce didn't pay attention, he might also be attacked by Liu Rui.

You must know that although he can defend Nanyang City, but there are so many cities in Jingzhou, Liu Biao has no way to send troops to support. If Liu Rui has occupied the entire Jingzhou, even if Liu Biao has a Nanyang City left, I am afraid that Nothing works anymore.Peerless Tangmen www.jueshitangmen.info

I have to say that Liu Biao's concern is actually the same as what Cao Cao, Sun Ce and others did.It will make Liu Biao's mind shaken, and even have the idea of ​​surrender.

Sima Yi was keenly aware of this, and he immediately cupped his hands and said loudly: "Master, there is no need to worry, your subordinates have already sent people to look for two princes. If you encounter their troops, you can let them go to the south first to help us protect the city. , until all the cities in the south have been recaptured, and finally join us in Nanyang!"

Liu Bei, who was on the side, also helped: "Jing Shenggong does not need to worry, then Cao Mengde and Sun Bofu are not people who don't know the general situation. Naturally, they will not understand the reason why their lips are dead and their teeth are cold!"

Sima Yi glanced at Liu Bei gratefully, then lowered his head again and said, "Don't think too much, my lord, as long as we unite our will and defend Nanyang City, Liu Rui will reveal his flaws sooner or later. At that time, we may not have no chance!"

Sima Yi's words were purely to comfort Liu Biao. At first, the five-way alliance army was dispatched in unison and failed to break Liu Rui's defense. Now that Liu Rui's army is assembled, it is naturally even more helpless.

It's just that Liu Biao is now obedient to Sima Yi's words. Hearing Sima Yi's words, his heart is now a lot more stable, and he doesn't say more.

After leaving Liu Biao's residence, Liu Bei looked at Sima Yi and said, "Zhongda must know the news about Cao Mengde and Sun Bofu!"

Sima Yi nodded, then smiled bitterly: "Today, I would like to thank Duke Xuande for his help. My lord is very old now. If he knows this kind of news, I am afraid he will not be able to resist. At that time, I am afraid that We are finished in Jingzhou!"

"Zhong Da is really working hard for Jingzhou!" Liu Bei sighed, then nodded heavily, and said, "Brother Jing Sheng's health is not very good, such news will probably hit him, Zhong Da's approach , is also the most appropriate!"

Seeing Liu Bei's support for him, Sima Yi also cast a grateful glance and said in a low voice: "Duke Xuande, I hope you can say a few more words in front of the lord these days. Although the situation in Nanyang is more than stable, it is not It's a lack of progress. It's just that since Liu Rui dares to divide his troops now, he will definitely reveal his flaws in the future. At that time, it's time for us to fight back!"

Liu Bei nodded and said with a smile, "Brother Jing Sheng won Zhong Da, it's like I won Shi Yuan!"

Sima Yi respectfully bowed deeply to Liu Bei again, and without further ado, went back to the camp outside the city to preside over the overall situation.Liu Bei, on the other hand, glanced deeply at the gate of Liu Biao's mansion behind him, and then Shi Shiran returned to his residence.

It's just that when he just returned to his residence, he saw Guan Yu and Zhang Fei sitting at home anxiously and waiting. Liu Bei's heart moved, and he hurriedly asked: "Yun Chang, Yide, you two are not outside the city, why did you come back? already?"

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei both hurriedly cupped their hands towards Liu Bei and said, "Big brother, when Sima Yi divided the rations today, he deducted [-]% of our rations. My second brother and I couldn't be angry, so we went to find that Sima Yi, who knows that Sima Yi. His subordinates shied away in every possible way, not saying that Sima Yi is no longer!"

Liu Bei was stunned for a moment, then he laughed dumbly and said, "Zhong Da is with me in brother Jing Sheng's mansion today. He was indeed not outside the city at that time!" , . . .
