Seeing Liu Bei crying too much, Zhao Yun couldn't help but persuade him: "General, please take care of your health. Yun Chang is known under the spring, and he doesn't want to see the general so sad."

Seeing that Liu Bei did not seem to listen, Zhao Yun said again, "General, now we burn the bridge and fireworks are soaring into the sky. Shen Dan in Shangyong City must have seen it. The two of them have thousands of people. If they lead their troops to investigate, once they see that we are weak or bewitched by the enemy, they may not be ill-behaved. For safety reasons, we need to leave here before the Shen brothers arrive to avoid meeting them."

Liu Bei knew that Zhao Yun's reminder was not aimless, so he stopped his sadness a little. Finally, he looked at the other side deeply, as if he wanted to remember this scene forever, and secretly vowed that he would avenge Guan Yu in the future, and then led everyone along the water blocking south and headed towards Bashan.

As Zhao Yun said, Liu Bei and his group left, Shen Dan and Shen Yi rushed over with their men.

Looking at the group of iron cavalry on the other side, the two brothers looked at each other, all showing shock.

Although they have thousands of people, they are actually capable of fighting, but only a thousand people. Moreover, the environment of Shangyong is closed, isolated from the world, and there are few wars, so there is no combat power at all.

The cavalry on the other side were obviously elite troops. The Shen brothers had no doubts that once the iron cavalry on the other side rushed over, they could kill them all in an instant.

This elite cavalry is by no means Liu Biao's troops. Liu's attack on Liu Jing was defeated in succession, and the soldiers were killed and injured. He is currently trapped in Xiangyang, and the situation is in danger.

A few days ago, Liu Biao sent someone to express his kind gifts and beg their brothers to send troops to help. Liu Biao never took the local tyrants like the Shen family seriously, but now he asks them for help. This shows Liu Biao's current situation.

Shen Dan and Shen Yi brothers did not have a doubt for too long. As the opponent shouted, the answer was quickly revealed. It turned out that the elite cavalry on the other side was Liu Jing's troops.

"Is Liu Biao dead?"

"Liu Cong surrendered to the state?"

"Liu Jing entered Jingzhou?"

"Survey Liu Bei all the way to this?"

Shen Dan and Shen Yi became more and more shocked the more they heard it. Although they knew that Liu Biao's situation was not good, they were far from the end of their lives. They thought that Liu Biao could last for a year or a half, but they did not expect that they would be defeated so soon.

To be honest, they hoped that Liu Jing and Liu Biao would be in a stalemate so that they could rest assured. Liu Jing's entry into Jingzhou was not the result they wanted to see.

Liu Biaoru was devoted to protecting the river and the Han Dynasty, but had no ambitions to all directions, so he did not annex Fangling, Shangyong and other places that were close to each other.

Liu Jing was different. He started his career with one city, killed Zhang Jin in the south, destroyed Liu Biao in the north, and had power across Jing and two states, and occupied tens of thousands of miles of land and armed with 100,000 armor. He was the real hero of the turbulent times.

Now that Liu Jing has entered Jingzhou, he is a human being. How can he allow others to snore on the side of the bed? If they still can't see the situation clearly, they want to continue to dominate Shangyong like before, and there is only a dead end waiting for them.

The Shen brothers decided to lead the crowd to surrender to Liu Jing without much consideration.

At the same time, Liu Jing, who was in Xiangyang, saw that Xiangyang was becoming more and more stable, began to recruit handsome men, recruit talents, and serve as the shogunate.

Liu Jing was handed over to the recruitment of northern scholars such as Zhuge Liang, Wang Can, and Fu Xun. The work of recruiting local scholars in Jingzhou was handed over to the responsibility of Jingzhou people such as Pang Tong, Jiang Wan, and Deng Zhi.

Not everyone can give it to his subordinates. Some people need Liu Jing himself to invite him, such as Zhao Jian, a famous scholar in Guanzhong.

Zhao Jian, whose courtesy name was Shumao, was from Jingzhao, Guanzhong. He was upright and resourceful. He was imprisoned for many years when he was young. Later, the Party and Corruption was lifted. Because he was famous, he was appointed as a virtuous person and became a minister of Shangshu and Pingling Order.

When Dong Zhuo was in the country, Zhao Jian repeatedly went against his will and was almost killed. In the third year of Chuping, Situ Wang Yun planned to eliminate Dong Zhuo, and was soon attacked and killed by the generals of Liangzhou. At that time, the officials and people in Chang'an were afraid of the tyranny of the generals of Liangzhou, and no one dared to collect the body of Wang Yun. Only Zhao Jian believed that he had been a former official of Wang Yun, and regardless of the danger, he abandoned his official position as Wang Yun's camp. Li Jue, Guo Si and others feared their reputation and did not dare to see any harm. Zhao Jian was famous all over the world.

However, although Zhao Jian has a high reputation, he is still not as good as his uncle. His uncle is no one else, but Zhao Qi, a great scholar in Guanzhong.

Unfortunately, Zhao Qi, who had lived in Xiangyang for many years, passed away last year. Liu Jing met Zhao Qi when he arrived in Xiangyang, and it was a pity that he would be separated forever today. However, Zhao Qi was over 90 years old when he died. Not to mention ancient times, even in modern times, it can be called a long life.

Zhao Jian didn't know that Liu Jing was coming in advance, but he was having a banquet at home when he suddenly received a report from his servant. Liu Jing was about to visit him, and he couldn't help but look surprised. The banquet could not continue any longer, so Zhao Jian had to stop the banquet and see him off.

The guests left one after another, and only one of them was kept by Zhao Jian. Together with the Zhao family's children, they went out to greet Liu Jing with Zhao Jian.

After a moment, Liu Jingche arrived in front of Zhao Jian's mansion under the guard of many cyclists.

"Zhao Jian pays homage to the general..."

Liu Jing got out of the car and helped Zhao Jian up and said, "You don't have to be too polite. Today I am here to come and don't blame me. I have wanted to visit you for a long time, but unfortunately, I have been in Xiangyang for a lot of things, and I have not taken time until today."

Looking at Liu Jing, who was handsome and very majestic, Zhao Jian sighed in his heart that his uncle Zhao Qi admired Liu Jing very much, hoping that he could assist the country and stabilize the country in the future.

Zhao Jian remembered it very clearly. Liu Jing's answer at that time was: "The elders dare not let down the expectations." In his words, he showed his conceit.

Zhao Jian was very displeased at that time. What he didn't expect was that the arrogant boy appeared in front of him five years ago and had already become the overlord of Jing and Jiaotong Prefectures.

At a time when Cao Cao had already used the emperor to command the princes, he didn't know that Liu Jing's rise in the south was a blessing or a disaster for the country.

Zhao Jian shook his head secretly, and then introduced the people around Liu Jing, who were the only guest left by Zhao Jian, Dou Fu.

Liu Jing had long heard of Dou Fu that his grandfather was the leader of the famous party leader "Three Kings", General Dou Wu.

At that time, Dou Wu and Chen Fan failed to plot to kill eunuchs, and died. Dou Fu was only two years old at that time. Dou Wu's subordinate Hu Teng, Zhang Chang risked his life to carry Dou Fu out and fled to Lingling and Guiyang. In order to avoid the pursuit of eunuchs, Hu Teng asked Dou Fu to change his surname to Hu. It was not until a few years ago that Dou Fu was elected as a filial and honest person by Guiyang and restored his surname.

Although Dou Fu had no talent, he could not resist his grandfather Dou Wu's rich political assets. Moreover, the Dou family of Fufeng was one of the top wealthy families in the dynasty. Although it has declined now, just like the Deng family in Nanyang, the dead camel is bigger than a horse. In Liu Jing's eyes, Dou Fu is definitely a hot commodity.
