Yes, when the first batch of Dongwu's grain arrived at Jiangling, Liu Feng had Xiang Chong bring the 10,000 newly recruited civilian workers along the Xiang River to transport it to Guiyang.
Although the Jing State Navy under Liu Bei's command had all been defeated by Cao Aman, they could still find a few hundred small boats to transport grain.
However, Liu Bei felt uncomfortable.
He had just obtained 350,000 dans of rations, but Liu Feng had stolen 100,000 dans.
"Military Advisor, you said that he could take down Jiaozhou with just the ten thousand soldiers in Guiyang?”Liu Bei looked up from a high vantage point and did not send Liu Feng, who was crossing the river.
"If it was just him, of course he wouldn't have such a chance of winning. Even if the young general is brave and unparalleled, there is still a local snake entrenched in Jiaozhou.”
"You mean Shixie." Liu Bei frowned slightly.
"It's Shixie." Zhuge Liang nodded," But this time, Yuanzhi followed us to Guiyang in the name of teaching. I think that before our army took Xiangyang, there must have been good news from Guiyang."”
Liu Bei's expression was solemn." I hope so. However, Military Advisor, although we are leading the army north to attack Xiangyang, it will be a wide expanse of flat land. However, Xu Huang and Cao Zhang in Xiangyang will not be easy to deal with. Not to mention, Cao Hong from Fan City will be supporting us.”
Zhuge Liang waved his feather fan lightly." No one is in a more difficult situation than the Wu army. Fei Zhang Liao, Xu Zhou Zang Ba, Guang Ling Chen Deng, once Wu dared to go north, Yu Jin and Li Dian, who were stationed in Yanzhou and Yuzhou, would also go south.”
"Then after our army goes north, who will guard the four counties of Jingnan?”
"Jin Xuan, prefect of Wuling; Sha prefect Liao Li, these three people are enough to guard the city without losing, manage the internal affairs, orderly and not chaotic.”
"In that case, I can rest assured.”
Liu Bei didn't say anything else. Instead, he stared at Liu Feng's back in a daze.
Liu Feng's authority was rising day by day among the civil officials and generals under his command. In the future, would his own son, Ah Dou, be able to defeat him?
His gaze gradually became a little fierce.
If he didn't act after Liu Feng took down Jiaozhou, it would be too late.
Thinking of this, Liu Feng even thought of getting Mei Zhu to prepare a group of civil officials to take over the seven prefectures of Jiaozhou. He would change all the officials there to his trusted aides. In this way, even if Liu Feng took down Jiaozhou, he would not be able to control that prefecture.
As long as he gave the order, wouldn't he have to surrender?
At the bow of the ship, Liu Feng was humming a tune, completely oblivious to Liu Bei's nagging.
"I'll lead my army south. From now on, the sky will be high and the birds will be wide. I can also develop a navy in Jiaozhou. The only treasure land in the hinterland of Dongwu is overseas. I have to go and investigate this time. Speaking of which, Yi Prefecture and Zhuya Prefecture can't be barren at this moment, right?”
Thinking of this, Liu Feng secretly shook his head.
He turned around and looked at Chaisang." I wonder if my letter has reached Zhou Yu. Perhaps Lu Su will thank me even more after receiving my letter."”
"Sun Quan can't possibly not use Zhou Yu for the future war in River East, but what if Zhou Yu gets sick from his anger?”
Thinking of this, Liu Feng found it funny.
——
In Chaisang, a few hundred miles away, Zhou Yu suddenly sneezed.
He touched his nose. There was no runny nose.
Then, he carefully looked at Xiaojiao who was busy outside the house and heaved a sigh of relief. Fortunately, he did not let his beautiful wife see him lose his composure.
"Reporting…reporting to the Viceroy, the envoy that Wu Hou sent to ask you to return to Jianye has been waiting outside for a long time.”
"I understand." Zhou Yu waved his hand, tidied his clothes, and walked out of the house.
His wound had already started to heal. It had been half a month, and the weather had already entered September. Tell me, how could he sit still if he continued to stay in Chaisang?
Sun Ce had only died a few years ago, but Cao Cao had already taken over half of the Han territory in the north. If he did not expand his territory as soon as possible, Dongwu would only be slowly devoured by Cao Cao in the future.
"Husband, there's a letter here from Lu Zijing. It's signed by that Duting Marquis Liu Feng.”
"Hmm?"
Zhou Yu stopped in his tracks and looked back at Xiao Qiao.
Seeing that the envelope had not been opened, he heaved a sigh of relief.
Just as he was about to take it away, he realized that Xiaojiao's fingers were tightly clenched and did not move.
"Why didn't Furen give me the letter?”
"I heard that my husband was on his way back to Chaisang from the river when he was angered by that person's letter. This time, he wrote a letter again, and I don't think there's anything good in it, so it's better not to read it.”
"Hmph, why wouldn't I dare to look?"
Zhou Yu snorted angrily and opened the letter to read it.
"Pfft…"
In the next second, he spat out a mouthful of blood. He was so angry that he collapsed again.
Husband!
Xiao Qiao quickly helped Zhou Yu up with the soldiers beside her. After they sent Zhou Yu in, Xiao Qiao saw the letter on the ground that was splashed with blood.
Coincidentally, there was a poem left inside: "The east wind is not suitable for Zhou Lang, and the bronze sparrow is locked in the spring.”
Xiao Qiao touched her bosom. There was a letter hidden there. It was sent by a spy from the street today.
He said that Liu Feng had given it to Xiao Qiao.
There was a sentence in it: "The belt gradually broadens and the end does not regret, because of Yi, the person is haggard."”
This was the tune. He was teasing her.
At this moment, Xiao Qiao was a little glad that she didn't show it to Zhou Yu. Otherwise, with his intense reaction, he would probably be angered to death on the spot...
