Three Kingdoms: I help Liu Bei grow thousands of miles

Chapter 113 Veteran Huang Zhong (for subscription)

After Liu Biao made Guan Yu the prefect of Jiangxia, Liu Bei left Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun and their families in Guiyang. He, Zhuge Liang, Xu Shu and others all went to Jiangxia to deploy defense.

Jiangxia had just experienced the massacre of the city. Zhuge Liang dispatched grain and grass materials from Guiyang and Lingling.

In order to help Huang Zu, Liu Pan fought fiercely with Cheng Pu's soldiers on the bank of Liushui for more than ten days. After both sides lost more than [-] people, he heard that Jiangxia had fallen, so Liu Pan led his troops back to You County to rest.

More than half of the battle was lost, and the dead soldiers needed compensation.

Liu Pan wrote to Xiangyang to apply for compensation for the death in battle, but at this time Liu Biao had ignored political affairs for many days, and Kuai Yue directly discarded Liu Pan's letter on the case.

There was no response from Xiangyang, so Liu Pan had no choice but to ask Liu Qi in Lingling for help.

Liu Qi approached Lantian and asked, "Ziyu, this time to rescue Jiangxia, brother Cong was blocked by Cheng Pu in Liushui and suffered heavy casualties, but his father didn't grant any compensation, so what can we do if we ask Lingling Ruzhi?"

"Mr. Pan has been stationed in You County for many years. If he is not good enough to support him, he is afraid that Kuai Yidu and Cai Degui will make trouble in Xiangyang. Liu Fujun should not know about this matter, and the eldest son should share the worries of the Fujun." Lan Tian suggested. .

"Ziyu is right, ahem, I have suffered from some cold recently, so I will ask you to do it for me," Liu Qi said.

Lan Tian ordered people to prepare food such as rice, cloth, wine and meat for the army, and he also specially brought several baskets of lychees sent by Abu.

The small tribe in Shi'an County, led by the leader Abu, pretended to be a caravan of Yue people under the leadership of the two brothers Ustin, and went deep into Yulin County, Cangwu County, Nanhai County and other places. On the one hand, they secretly promoted Lingling's policy On the other hand, it is to spy on intelligence from all over Jiaozhou.

Awabu is a shrewd leader. Every time he goes back to Shi'an County to collect food and salary, and there is not much work progress and useful information, he usually buys some special local products in Jiaozhou and transfers them to Lantian from County Wei Gaoyuan.

Lantian didn't really expect Abu to play a big role, but having such a Vietnamese intelligence team was of great significance for capturing Jiaozhou in the future.

Lantian and Gan Ning followed the transport ship and landed in Yinshan County, north of Guiyang County, and then traveled northward to Youxian County by land.

Liu Biao asked Liu Pan to help Jiangxia at all costs, but in Liushui he also encountered Cheng Pu, who was also blocking at all costs, and the damage to both armies reached more than [-]%.

Lan Tian came to labor on behalf of Liu Qi, and Liu Pan and some of his generals went out of You County twenty li to meet them.

Looking at the dozens of carts of goods, Liu Pan was very grateful at this moment. He said excitedly: "There is no news from Xiangyang. If it weren't for the help of sages, my soldiers might have fled."

"Your Majesty should be powerless. The general should be aware of the situation in Xiangyang. The general has worked hard to defend the border these years, and the eldest son is also doing his best." Lan Tian said.

Liu Pan himself is a martial artist, he just didn't want to intrigue in Xiangyang, so he invited Ying to come to Changsha to harass the Sun family's Xiasanlu. After hearing Lan Tian's explanation, he also had a wry smile on his face.

After entering the city, someone distributed labor supplies, and Liu Pan led Lan Tian to Xingyuan to meet the generals under his tent.

"This is Army Sima Li Si"

"This is Captain Wang Sheng."

"This is Zhonglang General Huang Zhong"

Liu Pan used to have a garrison of [-] troops, with more than [-] generals and school officials. After the first battle of Liushui, more than half of the troops were damaged, and there were only nine subordinate officials left.

For those ordinary names, Lan Tian still took a few more glances at the white-bearded veteran Huang Zhong.

Seeing Lan Tian's actions, Liu Pan was a little puzzled, "Mr. Ziyu, what's wrong with Huang Hansheng?"

Lan Tian nodded and said with a smile: "Although the old general is full of silver hair, he is still in good spirits. I really admire it."

"The last general is only sixty years old. He can open a three-stone bow with two arms, and he has the strength of a thousand catties, so he is not old." Huang Zhong hurriedly clasped his fists to argue.

Huang Zhong and Huang Zu came from the Huang family in Nanyang together, and were appointed by Liu Biao as the Zhonglang general under Liu Pan's tent. Because Liu Pan had not many troops, he only fought in Ai County and Haihun area, and Huang Zhong was old. , The official position is also the highest, but he is squeezed out by other colleagues, so his talents have not been discovered.

"Humph" Gan Ning let out a disdainful voice after hearing this.

Huang Zhong glared at him immediately, but he didn't dare to speak out because of Lan Tian's presence.

Seeing that the atmosphere became tense, Liu Pan immediately walked over to stand in front of Huang Zhong and asked, "Sir, this general is very powerful. I don't know his name."

"This is Gan Ning, Gan Xingba." Lan Tian introduced.

Liu Pan was startled when he heard this, and widened his eyes and said, "Could it be that Baiqi who robbed Sun Ying? Gan Xingba who rescued Su Dudu from the thousands of troops?"

Gan Ning clasped his fists and said calmly, "No, I'm here."

"Disrespect, disrespect." After Liu Pan clasped his fists and saluted, the rest of the generals, including Huang Zhong, also saluted.

Lan Tian frowned and blamed Gan Ning: "Xingba must not be rude, I think General Huang is also a brave general, we are all doing things for Jingzhou, what should we do?"

"I'm sorry, Wang Haihan." Gan Ning immediately pleaded guilty to Huang Zhong.

"Don't dare, dare not." Huang Zhong embarrassedly cupped his fists in return. He was a little dissatisfied with Lan Tian before, but at this moment he suddenly developed a strong affection for Lan Tian.

Liu Pan was surprised to see that such a brave and rude man was so docile in front of Lan Tian. He wondered where did Liu Qi find such a capable person?
Seeing that the atmosphere was getting more relaxed, Lan Tian asked someone to fetch two baskets of lychees. He peeled one first, threw it into his mouth and said, "This is the lychee produced in Jiaozhou. It tastes delicious and juicy. I will give it to you generals." Quench your thirst."

"Okay, Mr.'s kindness cannot be disappointed, let's try it all." Liu Pan also took the lead in eating.

The lychees are produced in Jiaozhou, and because of the high mountains and long distances, transportation is inconvenient. Even in Jingzhou, few people have eaten them. Liu Pan was lucky enough to eat a few at Liu Biao before, but this is the first time he has seen these two baskets.

All the generals in the tent, including Huang Zhong, picked up lychees and tasted them, and they were full of praise.

Seeing everyone gobbling it up, Lan Tian couldn't help but said, "This food is dry in nature, eating too much will harm your health, and the climate is warm now, so it won't last long."

"It's okay, I have many athletes under my command, I'll give them a taste later." Liu Pan smiled.

Lan Tian secretly praised this person for his abilities, at least he did a good job in treating soldiers well.

Liu Pan's [-]-strong army will belong to Liu Bei in the future according to the historical trend, and Lan Tian plans to use it earlier. After all, the current situation is very different from the previous Chibi.

Now that Liu Bei has not become the shepherd of Jingzhou, Lan Tian can only work according to Liu Qi's perspective.

"Liu Jingzhou is old and weak. Cai Degui, Kuai Yidu and others all intend to push Mr. Cong to succeed him. I don't know what the general means?" Lan Tian asked deliberately before leaving.

Liu Pan was originally neutral, but this time Liu Qi's act of giving charcoal in the snow made him completely change his mind, so he said frankly: "I support the eldest son."

Lan Tian nodded in affirmation and said: "If there is any change in Jingzhou, please remember what you said today, and Lan Tian will take his leave."

Looking at the backs of Lantian and Gan Ning going away, Liu Panxin said, what changes can be made in Jingzhou?
