Now that he saw Mi Fang running towards him from Jiangling City, the worry in his heart disappeared instantly.
Just as Mi Fang trusts Zhao Yun, Zhao Yun also trusts Mi Fang very much.
And because a big stone in his heart was temporarily removed, Zhao Yun showed a smile when he saw Mi Fang's arrival.
He and Mi Fang have been in love for decades, and Zhao Yun has a deep love. Now that the old friends can reunite, it is a happy thing for Zhao Yun.
Among Liu Bei's six important ministers, Zhao Yun had a very good relationship with Mi Fang, otherwise he would not have had any intention of marrying her back then.
After Mi Fang rode up behind him, Zhao Yun immediately asked Mi Fang, "Zifang, where is Yunchang's army now?"
Upon hearing Zhao Yun's question, Mi Fang, who had just stopped her horse in front of Zhao Yun, immediately replied:
"Yunchang's army is still on the front line of Xiangfan."
Immediately afterwards, Mi Fang told Zhao Yun everything he knew about Jingzhou's military situation in the past few days.
This included the news that a hundred thousand troops from Jiangdong were besieging Gong'an City, and that Cao Cao personally led a hundred thousand troops to the front line of Xiangfan.
When describing these two pieces of news, Mi Fang's face was full of anxiety and worry.
After hearing what Mi Fang had said about the emergency situation Jingzhou was facing now, a heavy look appeared on Zhao Yun's face.
The situation in Jingzhou now is even more dangerous than when he set out from Fish Belly City.
There were actually 200,000 enemy troops gathered in Jingzhou!
While Zhao Yun was thinking about the current situation, Mi Fang carefully observed the number of white soldiers behind Zhao Yun.
It was discovered that the number of Baijie soldiers, who originally numbered nearly five thousand, was now less than three thousand.
Many of the faces were even slightly green, and they were obviously new recruits.
Seeing this scene, Mi Fang became increasingly anxious.
How can we save Yang'er with so few people?
Mi Fang immediately asked Zhao Yundao, "Zilong, why are the Baiji soldiers so low in strength?"
Hearing Mi Fang's question, Zhao Yun explained, "In the Battle of Hanzhong, the white soldiers were in the vanguard and fought hard against the tigers and leopards, so they suffered heavy losses."
"Originally, there were only less than a thousand soldiers left, but now there are nearly 3,000 soldiers. This is due to the continuous recruitment of soldiers in Shu some time ago."
After Zhao Yun explained, although Mi Fang felt that such a force was a bit lacking, he felt that it was better than nothing.
Therefore, he immediately said to Zhao Yun, "In this case, Zilong should go south immediately to support my son. His situation is very critical at this time."
When Zhao Yun heard Mi Fang's request, he thought for a while and replied, "Otherwise, I should lead my army north to support Yunchang."
Hearing what Zhao Yun said, Mi Fang was so anxious that she almost fainted on the horse.
He said eagerly to Zhao Yun, "Yun Chang has tens of thousands of troops in his hands. It is not difficult to resist Cao Cao's 100,000 troops on the northern front."
"However, my son only has less than 6,000 defenders in the public security. It is not yet known whether the other 5,000 barbarians can be relied upon."
"Why would Zilong want to go north to help Yun Chang?"
Facing Mi Fang's question, Zhao Yun patiently explained, "Although Yunchang has tens of thousands of elite soldiers, his tens of thousands of elite soldiers have no strong city to support them.
"Although according to what Zifang just said, the defender of Xiangyang surrendered to Yunchang after learning that Yunchang killed Xu Huang.
However, after many months of siege by Yun Chang, Xiangyang City's defenses must have been dilapidated and could not be used as a stronghold for the army. "
Now Cao Cao's army is occupying Yancheng behind and Fancheng in front. They are encamping step by step, gradually forming an oppressive force on Yun Chang. "
"Cao Cao's army has a large number of troops and the Han River defense line is long. Moreover, it is the dry season and there is not much water in the Han River.
The northern cavalry can build a pontoon bridge to cross the Han River and directly attack Yunchang's army. "
"Yunchang's army has few soldiers and cannot be defended. If there is a loss in one place, it will be difficult to protect the entire line, and Yunchang's army will be in danger."
"On the other hand, Zi Sheng led the troops to guard the public security. Although there were not many troops, the public security was a strong city.
With Zisheng's past talents, the police were sure to be safe for a while. "
"Besides, if Yunchang's army is defeated in front of us, the whole territory of Jingzhou will no longer be owned by the king after Xiangyang."
"There are no intact eggs under the overturned nest, so how can Zi Sheng be able to survive alone?"
Zhao Yun has been in the army for many years, and his sensitivity to war is unparalleled.
Under Mi Fang's narration, he immediately knew where the key point of the current situation in Jingzhou was.
On Guan Yu and Mi Yang respectively.
Guan Yu relied on the natural defense line of the Han River to resist Cao Wei's army, preventing it from crossing Xiangyang and entering the border of Jingzhou.
And Mi Yang relied on the public security city to hold on to Jiangdong's army in Jingnan and prevent it from sweeping across Jingnan.
If there is a mistake in either of these two places, it will lead to Cao Cao and any army from Jiangdong arriving at Jiangling City.
Once one of the two armies takes Jiangling City, the results of more than ten years of hard work by the King of Hanzhong in Jingzhou will be lost in one fell swoop.
At this point, the battle situation in Jingzhou has far exceeded Zhao Yun's imagination.
The four words "Battle of Xiangfan" are no longer enough to summarize the war currently unfolding in Jingzhou.
The current battle situation in Jingzhou is like the Battle of Chibi back then.
The only difference from the war situation back then is that now it is Liu Bei who is a rising force in the Cao-Sun Alliance's resistance.
The two of them intend to work together to knock Liu Bei, the dragon of the Han Dynasty who is about to fly into the sky, into the dust again!
Under such circumstances, Zhao Yun judged that Guan Yu was the one who needed more support than Mi Yang.
Therefore, he decided to focus on the overall situation and support Guan Yu first.
After Mi Fang listened to what Zhao Yun said, even though he knew that what Zhao Yun did was right, he still loved his son and repeatedly begged Zhao Yun to send troops south to support Mi Yang.
Why didn't Zhao Yun not want to send troops to rescue Mi Yang?
He also loves this junior very much.
But as a minister, you should not forget about official affairs due to personal feelings. Everything must be done to preserve Liu Bei's great cause.
After Mi Fang's repeated pleas, Zhao Yun finally decided to lead his army northward.
Although he has few soldiers, as long as he can hold a line of defense for Guan Yu, he can reduce Guan Yu's pressure a lot.
After Zhao Yun led his army and left, Mi Fang was left alone in sorrow in the wind.
Mi Fang looked south, and he seemed to see his son being surrounded by a hundred thousand fierce Jiangdong army.
Thinking that Mi Yang was facing danger, Mi Fang couldn't calm down for a long time.
He originally had three sons and two daughters, but because of Liu Bei's great cause, now only Mi Yang is the only son left.
As the only hope to inherit his bloodline and incense, Mi Fang would never let him go.
Mi Fang, who was determined, returned to Jiangling City, and then locked himself in the governor's mansion.
Soon after, many messengers left Jiangling City Gate and rushed toward the east.
Mi Fang's political and military talents were not good, but he was extremely talented in business.
Previously, because he wanted to create good relationships as a businessman, he had privately given a lot of gold and silver to some ministers in Jiangdong to create good relationships.
Mi Fang's original plan was to make friends with these Jiangdong ministers and make plans for his future.
Without these connections, Mi Fang would not have thought of defecting to Sun Quan before.
But now that Mi Yang is in danger, what else does he want from the future?
If his previous reselling of military supplies was considered treason, then how could the Jiangdong ministers' private acceptance of gold and silver from Liu Bei's subordinates be considered treason?
Mi Fang sent these messengers to contact the Jiangdong ministers he had bribed in the past.
The original intention of bribing Jiangdong ministers was to cultivate a way out, but now Mi Fang took the initiative to take this as a threat and asked those Jiangdong ministers to do something for him.
Although this move may have miraculous effects, his move undoubtedly means that all the connections he has cultivated in Jiangdong for more than ten years will be burned to the ground.
It also means that Mi Fang himself is about to be hated by the entire Jiangdong ministers, and he will never have a way out.
But as long as it can help Mi Yang relieve some pressure,
It's better to be gone without a way out than to have no descendants.
At this time, a copy of "Historical Records" was placed on Mi Fang's desk.
The page opened in the "Historical Records" is exactly the part that records the Battle of Changping...
