Although there were some conflicts before, due to the marriage relationship between the Cai family and the Huang family, Fei Qian and Liu Biao formed an invisible connection. Although this connection is not very stable, in most cases
You can still be more trustworthy than ordinary people.
This situation is like that of many small family businesses in later generations. It is possible that a small financial officer is actually the sister-in-law of the chairman, or the mistress, etc. Anyway, there is some relationship, although the relationship is not completely complete.
I have 100% trust in you, but you can still rest assured about some things.
The attitude shown by the Kuai family made Liu Biao somewhat unhappy.
This seemingly sound idea is actually only good for the Kuai family, and is not a good thing for either Liu Biao or the Cai family.
Because only for the Kuai family, whoever takes over Xiangyang, as long as the Kuai family's property in Nanjun is guaranteed, it doesn't really matter what the surname of the leader of Jingxiang is...
And if he loses Xiangyang, for Liu Biao, it means losing his position as the governor of Jingzhou. This is definitely something he will not accept no matter what.
The same is true for the Cai family. Now they are so close to Liu Biao. If someone else were replaced, would the Cai family be allowed to continue to be entrenched in Xiangyang?
Liu Biao is currently attacking Jingnan, and most of his generals have been sent to the southern counties of Jingzhou to suppress and attack. Once the troops are withdrawn and mobilized at this time, it will not only mean that all previous efforts have been wasted, but also represent Liu Biao's reputation and reputation.
will bear a huge blow.
At the same time, it cannot be decided in one fell swoop. Even if there is a chance to attack Jingnan again in the future, it will be more difficult than now. So in desperation, the only choice, and the best choice, is to find Fei Qian.
After all, Fei Qian's eight hundred cavalrymen were all veterans, and Fei Qian was someone with real experience in leading troops, which was crucial.
In fact, Xiangyang City is not too short of soldiers, but there is no suitable commander.
If Cai Xi was a dozen years younger, there would be no problem in going into battle, but after all, his age makes it difficult to even run a horse...
Liu Biao wanted to recite poems and compose poems, be good at dancing, and have no problem with political balance, but he really had to lead his troops into battle, which was really difficult.
Commanding troops definitely does not mean that you can automatically march and attack automatically by clicking the mouse on the screen in later generations. It involves too many aspects, such as mountains, flat land, woodland, waterside, when to attack, from what route, and in what direction.
What to do when the enemy deploys its forces...
The so-called famous general is someone who, given the same troops and the same configuration, cannot win no matter what.
Although Fei Qian was not a famous general, and he knew that he might not be able to become one, he at least knew some military formation arrangements during his stay in Bingzhou, and at least he would not be in a hurry when he went into battle and make mistakes in his orders.
Moreover, this time, Fei Qian did not intend to fight Sun Jian head-on, and the Jiangdong Tigers were not vegetarians. Although he had 800 Bingzhou wolf cavalry, it was still a considerable combat force for Jing Xiang who lacked cavalry, but Fei Qian
Qian did not intend to put these eight hundred cavalry at frontal loss.
Setting up an ambush is always the best way to solve the enemy's military situation.
But the key question is where to set up an ambush and how to set up an ambush...

Sun Jian was sitting in the camp, feeling a little bored. Although he defeated Huang Zu, the victory was not completely established. Deng County might not be able to capture it for a while...
In fact, it is not completely impossible to capture, but if too many troops are lost in Deng County, then the opportunity to attack Xiangyang will be lost.
Now Sun Jian relies on his group of young soldiers brought from his hometown and veterans who have fought against Dong Zhuo's army and seen blood. These troops are the middle force. If the loss is too big, it is equivalent to self-inflicted wounds.
Arm, combat strength and lethality will be greatly reduced.
Therefore, it was the next best thing to go with Huang Zu and use manpower to fill Deng County. Only by seizing the opportunity to go straight to Xiangyang and kill Liu Biao could the victory be determined in one fell swoop.
And the opportunity is only now. Although Liu Biao's troops are large now, they are too scattered. This is an opportunity to take advantage of. If Liu Biao gathers his soldiers and then wants to attack Xiangyang, there will be little hope.
But now we are stuck here. Leave Deng County and rush to Xiangyang, but you are worried that your retreat will be cut off, so stay here. This will give Liu Biao more time to prepare to gather his troops...
When Sun Jian was in a dilemma, he suddenly saw a scout galloping towards him from outside the camp. He was carrying a long arrow and seemed to have several other wounds. The blood was dripping very horribly.
When they reached the camp, the scout could no longer hold on and fell off his horse with a thud.
The soldiers at the gate of Sun Jian's camp were suddenly panicked. A military commander on duty quickly ordered the camp gate to be opened and helped the scouts in.
The scout was now pale due to excessive bleeding, but he still managed to hold on for a breath...
The military commander did not dare to delay. Seeing that the situation was critical, he did not even dare to deal with it. He directly carried the scouts into Sun Jian's tent.
After the scout gave a few simple reports, he could no longer hold on, tilted his head, and died.
Sun Jian sighed and ordered the scout's body to be carried down.
Sun Jian walked around the tent twice with his hands behind his back, his face as dark as water.
Scouts have always been held by light cavalry who are strong, bold, careful and experienced in the army. Generally speaking, scouts work in groups. Once a situation is discovered, the two of them will leave directly, and the three of them will take cover...
But now, there is only one person who has escaped to Sun Jian, and he is on the verge of death.
There are a thousand infantry and about a hundred cavalry, and the commander is named Huang...
Although the enemy troops attacking from the opposite side are not large in number, they are obviously difficult to deal with!
Who could this be?
But no matter what, this small number of people in this army is obviously not the main force, but seems to be reinforcing Huang Zu in Deng County...
At this point, Sun Jian rolled his eyes left and right and shouted loudly: "Blow the drum, raise the tent!"
After a while, Cheng Pu, Huang Gai, and Han Dang entered the tent.
Sun Jian said in a deep voice: "Liu Biao of Xiangyang sent a thousand troops to assist Huang Zu, but they are now fifteen miles away!"
The three of them were stunned for a moment, and then immediately stood up and called for battle in unison.
Sun Jian waved his hand and said: "I will personally lead the army in this battle... Don't be impatient, wait until I finish... I and Yi Gong will go to destroy it. De Mou and Gong are here to defend Huang Zu in the city. Wait for me to kill the reinforcements."
After that, they took their flags and pretended to be Liu Biao's army to attack the camp... Demou and public defeat, you two know what to do, right?"
Cheng Pu and Huang Gai looked at each other, laughed loudly, and said in unison: "We will definitely be defeated by then, and when the Huangzu gate in the city is lured to open...hehehehe..."
Sun Jian also smiled, stood up quickly, and shouted in a deep voice: "With such a virtuous plan, the duke will act according to the plan... Lord Yi, follow me to order your troops and attack!"
Cheng Pu, Huang Gai, and Han Dang also stood up and clasped their fists, shouting: "I will obey the military order!"

Above the city of Deng County, Huang Zu saw a commotion in Sun Jian's camp outside the city, and then it seemed that Sun's banner was leading a group of soldiers and horses to the south. He couldn't help but murmured, could it be Xiangyang coming to help?
So do you want to make some preparations yourself?
I just don’t know who is leading the army, and I don’t know if they can defeat that bastard Sun Jian...
ps: Anyway, pay it back slowly... just like the overdue project payment...
