Yuan Yao never expected that his mother's efficiency would be so fast, and she would be able to deal with both Xiao Qiao and Xiao Qiao in just one meeting.

But after all, Yuan Yao didn't just do it hastily in Shouchun.

For the sake of harmony in the harem, I couldn't hide it from Lu Lingqi. I still thought that there would be a chance to sleep with me...

If you avoid Lu Lingqi, the problem won't be too big, but don't think about sleeping with her.

Er Qiao couldn't escape anyway, and Yuan Yao spent a long time convincing Feng that his mother should not be so anxious.

After all, things are getting better now. Yuan Yao is not only thinking about the Zhong family dynasty, but also other things.

…

The war between Cao Cao and Lu Bu lasted for two months, and Cao Cao once again pressed Xiapi.

However, Lu Bu's troops and horses were strong at this time, and the army was working together, which was unmatched at that time, and there was nothing Cao Cao could do.

But Cao Cao's conquest was not in vain.

Zang Ba of Kaiyang, who originally came to help Lu Bu, was tricked by Guo Jia and sent Xia Houyuan to attack thousands of miles and hit the rear. As a result, the entire army was defeated and he was captured alive and surrendered.

And Cao Cao took over Zang Ba's troops and truly controlled the entire north of Xuzhou, and even began to explore Qingzhou.

But Cao Cao's victory ended here.

Knowing that Lu Bu's interior was now monolithic and difficult to break, Cao Cao also retreated as soon as he saw the opportunity. After building a defense line, he set his sights on the west again.

And Yuan Yao was finally able to lead two fresh girls back to Jiangxia.

…

Once he returned to Jiangxia, Yuan Yao no longer had time to care about the affairs of the harem.

Yuan Yao, who had been holding back all autumn and winter, finally had a big wave of holding back and wanted to take action against Liu Biao.

He directly ordered Lu Su to be the "General Manager of Logistics" and allocated all the grain and grass from Jiangdong to Jiangxia.

He also transferred Dong Xi from Yuzhang to Jingzhou to replace Taishi Ci and guard Changsha.

Jiang Qin still lives in Guiyang.

With Tai Shi Ci, Gan Ning, Ling Cao, Zhou Tai, Xu Sheng, Sun Hao, and Le, they were training their own troops, ready to attack Liu Jingsheng again at any time!

He also asked his father to order Liu Xun, the governor of Lujiang, to be ready to support Jiangxia at any time. He also sent his county minister Liu Ye to come here to listen to orders and report to his subordinates.

Take Chen Deng and his side as the mastermind, occupy Jiangxia, and plot against Xiangyang!

As for Huang Zhong's longbow battalion, due to the current insufficient number of people and insufficient training, the supply of longbows is still somewhat lacking, so it cannot be used at the moment.

…

The first year of Jian'an.

Jiangxia County, Xiling City.

General Yuan Yao raised 70,000 troops and horses, and ordered Liu Xun, the prefect of Lujiang, to raise 30,000 troops and horses, for a total of 100,000 troops and horses, to attack Xiangyang.

In the camp, today is the swearing-in meeting before the expedition.

Yuan Yao personally went on stage and shouted to boost morale.

"Since the birth of vitality, the first generation of human beings, the emperor of the tree, is considered to be the minister of animal husbandry."

"So after Xi, Nong, Xuan, and Xu, the kings of Yao, Shun, Yu, and Tang were not only afraid of the mysterious, but loved and educated the head of Guizhou, and worked all day long, cautiously and cautiously, riding the ropes of decay and sharing dangers, walking on spring ice but

fear."

"The most important thing in the world is the danger of the country. The greatest virtue in the world is loyalty."

"My husband, Liu Biao of Jingzhou, was granted a title and joined the traitor Dong Zhuo, and obtained the land of Jingchu. When the country was in crisis, he only knew how to attack the people, seize the industry, and rob the land. He did not know how to serve the country with loyalty to the emperor, and to fight against the national traitors! This is a grave crime!"

"I have no ability to govern the world, I only cling to wealth and glory. I have no intention of helping others, I only pursue profit and power through greed."

"Split the country, cut off the territory, trust the traitors, kill the loyal and honest, let people be moved by emotion, and ignore the constitution."

"That's why everyone in Jingnan rebelled against him, but unfortunately he was killed by him."

"Now that we have been given the destiny of God, we also have God's help. Heroes from all over the world will come to respond and eradicate the evil, and we will definitely be able to defeat it!"

As soon as Yuan Yao finished speaking, a uniform response came from the dense crowd in the audience.

"Eradicate the annihilation and defeat it!"

"Eradicate the annihilation and defeat it!"

They spread the word to ten, and then to a hundred. In the end, the entire Xiling City sounded the trumpet before attacking Xiangyang.

...

In fact, it is not easy to attack Xiangyang from Jiangxia.

If you take the water route, you have to go upstream, and all crossings are controlled by Liu Biao.

If you take the land route, you must first pass through Jiangling in Nanjun before you can reach Xiangyang.

As for the suitable route, the route taken by Boss Cao from Nanyang Wancheng, into Fancheng, and towards Xiangyang is more suitable.

Starting from Jiangxia, firstly, the distance is relatively long, and secondly, in Jiangling, it is very likely to be surrounded by Wuling.

Therefore, when advancing, troops must be continuously allocated to defend the entire front to avoid being cut off from the food route. It is not like starting from Wancheng, where only a large army is required to press the border.

It's just that Yuan Yao can't really go around to Wancheng. Not to mention whether it is realistic or not, if he really reaches Wancheng and becomes the sandwich cake of Boss Cao and Liu Jingsheng, he might as well start from Jiangxia.

So even though he knew it was difficult to attack, Yuan Yao had only one way!

After the swearing-in meeting, Yuan Yao took Gan Ning Lingcao as the vanguard to attack Jiangling.

He led the central army and followed closely behind him.

He also ordered Xu Sheng, a young general, to lead five thousand soldiers and horses as the rear army to escort the heavy supplies of food and grass.

He headed towards Jiangling in a grand manner.

Yuan Yao held such a high-profile swearing-in meeting and clearly did not intend to conduct a blitzkrieg without telling Liu Jingsheng.

Xiangyang was always vigilant and responded quickly. However, the person who responded fastest was not Liu Biao, but the top family in Jingxiang, the Cai family.

The first person Cai Mao went to look for was none other than his brother-in-law, Huang Chengyan.

...

On the outskirts of Xiangyang City, Huang Chengyan, who originally lived in Mianyang, was influenced by Yuan Yaozhan's influence in Jiangxia. He also moved early and came to Xiangyang City, which was relatively safer.

When Cai Mao came in a hurry, he only saw his brother-in-law feeling the spring breeze safely in the courtyard. It seemed that he had not heard about Yuan Yao's troops coming to attack at all.

Seeing this, Cai Hao couldn't help but slow down his hurried steps. When he was close, he bowed his hands and called out "brother-in-law" slowly.

Cai Mao was the son of Cai Xi, a famous scholar in the Eastern Han Dynasty. Cai Xi's eldest daughter married Huang Chengyan, and his younger daughter married Liu Biao as his second wife.

So can the Cai family not be powerful?

All the powerful people in Jingzhou were related to him, and they really took the marriage to the extreme.

Huang Chengyan heard this call and nodded in response: "Degui is here."

Cai Mao bowed again and said, "I came here today because I have something to discuss with my brother-in-law."

"What can I do about the Yuan family's attack on Xiangyang?"

"exactly."

"When the enemy is attacking, De Gui, as Jingzhou's military advisor, should naturally think about how to deal with the enemy. Oh! I understand, De Gui thinks too much and really doesn't know how to choose a plan. He wants me to help him as a counselor.

?”

Cai Mao blocked himself after hearing Huang Chengyan's words, and he also understood what Huang Chengyan was thinking.

I just secretly said in my heart: "The Yuan family has raised an army of 100,000 people with an intimidating momentum. How can they easily resist it?"
