Chapter 664 The Prelude to the Battle of Jingzhou (Updated, 715)

"Liu Yan would be so impatient, I also thought about it, you can take a look at this thing!" Mu Jing took out a document and handed it to Xi Zhicai: "Maybe there will be some answers!"

"what?"

Xi Zhicai opened the file, read it, and asked questions.

"A top-secret piece sent back from Chengdu by Jing Wusi!" Mu Jing said softly, "Liu Yan's daily life record is not long, only a few days, but you should be able to see a lot of problems!"

"Can you get this thing?"

Xi Zhicai was a little surprised: "Jing Wusi really has great powers!"

Daily life record is a record of daily life, food and housing issues, there is a job as a living clerk, which is dedicated to recording these things, but it must be accessible to the closest people around.

"Guess who got it back?" Mu Jing asked with a smile.

"It shouldn't be Tan Zong. After that guy lost a leg, he is much more gloomy, and he won't rush forward in many things!" Xi Zhicai thought about it, and then he had a flash of inspiration: "Yue Shu!"

"Ok!"

Mu Jing nodded, not at all surprised by Xi Zhicai's quick thinking, and Xi Zhicai is not Xi Zhicai without this ability to respond.

"There's something wrong with this person!" Xi Zhicai said softly as he flipped through the daily record.

"There is a problem, but he should be in a vacillating position, otherwise we won't see this daily record...so I want to take a gamble!"

Mu Jing asked suddenly: "This is a double-edged blade. If I can use it for me, it can split the enemy's head and penetrate directly into the enemy's heart!"

"Are you confident?"

Xi Zhicai raised his head and cast a sidelong glance at him.

"I still believe in the charm of my own personality!" Mu Jing flicked the hair on his forehead, made a handsome expression, and said proudly: "Between me and Liu Yan, he should choose! "

"Don't think you are too attractive, what if he chooses Liu Yan?" Xi Zhicai asked in a cold voice: "Back then, Jing Wusi had a Zhu Chou, and almost knocked down the banner of Jing Wusi. Now, this Jing Wusi managed to regain his composure, if there is another Yueshu incident, it will sink Jing Wusi's little energy that has only just gotten up!"

"How can there be no harvest without taking risks!"

Mu Jing shrugged: "Everyone in business knows that investment is the only way to gain. This is a big gamble, a gamble on people's hearts, and I will admit that I lost. It's not a good look!"

"You just have to have faith!"

Xi Zhicai doesn't get entangled in this. He seldom cares about Jing Wusi's affairs. He only cares about the truth of the news. He doesn't intervene in internal affairs. This is the rule. As the boss of Beiwutang, if he meddles too much, That would be beyond the rules.

"Back to the topic!" Xi Zhicai flipped through two pages of the daily record in his hand, and handed it to Mu Jing: "I think the reason why Liu Yan sent troops to Jingzhou should be here!"

"I think so too!"

Mujing looked at the record above, nodded, and said, "Birth, old age, sickness and death are always scary, aren't they?"

There are not many records on it, only one "get up in the morning, drink a bowl of medicine routinely, cough, but no improvement".

Why are you taking medicine?
This is worth considering, and thinking about Liu Yan's impatience now, many things began to become clear.

It's nothing more than a physical problem.

In addition, it was rumored that Liu Yan had been ill at the beginning of this year.

You can guess one or two.

"Let's see now, this record of daily life is just true or false!" Xi Zhicai said: "If it is true, I'm afraid we have to make preparations in advance. We have calculated this big piece of meat in Yizhou for so long, and we can't let it go. It was taken advantage of by others!"

"Zhicai, do you think Liu Yan would be willing to be a local overlord if we didn't give him the Chuanguo Yuxi?"

Mu Jing suddenly asked.

"I don't know!" Xi Zhicai pondered for a moment, and after considering Mujing's statement, he said: "In fact, his ambition was triggered. He wants to ascend to the position of Ninth Five Supreme, so he needs Jingzhou. Jingzhou and Yizhou are in a line, so he has the courage, otherwise he would not dare!"

"This is his chance, and it's also my chance!"

Mu Jing stood up: "It will be a matter of time to fight Jingzhou. This time I will do my best to help him. If he doesn't become emperor, we will be born without a name. We must give him confidence!"

"I go!"

Play Zhicai.

"Of course you go!" Mu Jing smiled wryly: "I can't go even if I want to. Huang Zhong is on the front line and has Zhang Liao and Zhou Cang to assist. It's not a big problem, but facing Jingzhou, it's better for you to go, but the main general is still Huang Zhong, you are a military advisor!"

"Why, are you worried that I won't be able to fight well?" Xi Zhicai was a little annoyed, he is the Sima of the Minghou Mansion, the number one leader of the Mu Army, why can't he be the chief general.

"If it's defense, I really dare to let you fight!"

Mu Jing said it very straightforwardly: "You can attack, you have no strategy, and the lack of a general trend is not conducive to the outbreak of the army, this is a fact!"

"Just say it straight, I can't be the commander-in-chief!"

Xi Zhi was a little discouraged.

He couldn't deny what Mujing said.

He is not a person who is not clear about himself. In terms of layout and strategy, he never thinks that he is inferior to others, but he is fighting in an upright manner. Mu Jing is right, he lacks the courage and momentum to put himself to death and survive .

"I don't want to hit you!" Mu Jing said with a smile: "And I'm also thinking about you, you have no power to restrain a chicken, maybe I let you charge into battle!"

"Someone is a wise general, do you understand the wise general!"

Xi Zhicai said angrily: "On the chessboard, you can win thousands of miles away. This time is a certain ability!"

************************************
Berkshire, Baidi City.

At the end of the Western Han Dynasty, Gongsun Shu ruled Shu and built a city on the mountain. Because a well in the city often emits white gas, like a white dragon, he used this to call himself Baidi and named the city Baidi City.

Baidi City has a special location, strangling the throat of the Yangtze River.

Jingzhou entered Shu, and Baidi was the pass.

This is also a pass city.

Baidi City was not very lively at first, after all, there is a river city next to it, which is a famous mountain city in later generations, and now it is the prefectural city of Berkshire, the most populous and most prosperous city in Berkshire.

With Jiangcheng as the backdrop, Baidi City is like a dilapidated small country town.

However, during the recent period of time, soldiers and horses came in and out, which made Baidi City even more lively. The whole city was like a military town, and soldiers could be seen everywhere.

In the center of Baidi City, there is a mansion, which is the county government office. It has been requisitioned now, because inside and outside of Baidi City, there are basically soldiers and horses, even if the people have all moved to Jiangzhou.

In the mansion, the burly Yan Yan is in the upper position, and he is instructing the generals: "I will give you three more days to gather enough boats for me to go down the river. It is not my best, but must, understand!"

"promise!"

The generals took the lead.

"Zhang Ren has seen Prefect Yan!"

Zhang Ren walked in from the outside with a straight body, walked into the hall, and saluted the people in the hall.

"General Zhang can't!"

Yan Yan hurried down, even though he was the prefect of Berkshire, and he held Berkshire soldiers in his hands, he could afford such courtesy when ordinary people from the prefecture's pastoral mansion came down, but he didn't dare to follow Zhang Ren's salute.

Who is Zhang Ren? That is the number one general beside Liu Yan, who holds the most powerful Dongzhou Army under Liu Yan's command.

Yan Yan dare not accept his etiquette.

"General Zhang, take your seat!"

"My lord, in Berkshire, all the military orders of the dignified prefect!" Zhang Ren shook his head, and said to Yan Yan: "This position should be taken by the prefect Yan!"

Yan Yan didn't force it either, he is a coward, and now he decides everything in Berkshire, let Zhang Ren take the seat, and it's hard to explain to the arrogant soldiers under his command, but he didn't dare to neglect Zhang Ren, let Zhang Ren sit on the right Position, sit flat.

"My Dongzhou army's vanguard, [-] soldiers, have already arrived in Jiangzhou. I don't know how to prepare for Baidi City." Zhang Ren cut to the chase and said, "My lord has already negotiated with Hanzhong to send troops at the same time, so we must Hurry up and send troops out of Yizhou!"

"Our Berkshire soldiers have assembled, but there are not enough warships!"

Yan Yan said: "I thought going down the river would make us go faster, but now there are not enough boats, it's hard to do it!"

The Yangtze River is a big river. Although the section where it enters Shu is a bit turbulent, it is not impossible to walk. If you use ships to transport troops, you can avoid some city passes and go straight to the hinterland of Jingzhou.

The key is that there are not many ships in Yizhou.

Jiangzhou has gathered a lot, and there are not many warships that can be used. Most of them are warships and warships, and there are no buildings. It is bound to be troublesome to transport troops.

"How many soldiers and horses can the ships currently in preparation carry?"

"Ten thousand!"

"Leave it all to me!" Zhang Ren said decisively: "I am the vanguard, and I will enter Jingzhou first!"
