After Liu Biao appointed Guan Yu as the governor of Jiangxia, Liu Bei left Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun and their family members in Guiyang. He, Zhuge Liang, Xu Shu and others all went to Jiangxia to set up defenses.
Jiangxia had just experienced a catastrophe. Zhuge Liang transferred grain and grass supplies from Guiyang and Lingling counties. The water transport force formed by Gan Ning shone brightly. Their loading, unloading, and timeliness were better than those of civilians.
In order to help Huang Zu, Liu Pan fought fiercely with Cheng Pu's troops for more than ten days on the bank of Liu River. After both sides lost more than 10,000 people, he heard that Jiangxia had fallen, so Liu Pan led his troops back to You County to rest and recuperate.
More than half were lost in this battle, and the fallen soldiers need compensation.
Liu Pan wrote to Xiangyang to apply for death compensation, 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 reply from Xiangyang, so Liu Pan had no choice but to ask for help from Liu Qi in Lingling.
Liu Qi came to Lantian and asked: "Ziyu, during the rescue of Jiangxia, brother Cong suffered heavy casualties when he was blocked by Cheng Pu in Liushui, but his father did not grant him any compensation. What can Linglingru do now?"
"Young Master Pan has been stationed in You County for many years. If he doesn't take good care of him, he will feel cold. Kuai Yidu and Cai Degui are obstructing him in Xiangyang. Mr. Liu Fu should be unaware of this matter. The eldest son should share the worries of Mr. Fu." Lan Tian suggested. .
"What Ziyu said makes sense. Ahem, I've been suffering from some colds recently. I'll ask you to handle this matter for me," Liu Qi said.
Lantian ordered people to prepare rice, cloth, wine, meat and other supplies for the army. He also specially brought several baskets of lychees sent by Ava.
The small tribe in Shi'an County, led by the leader Awa, pretended to be a Yue caravan under the leadership of the two Usdin brothers 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 various places in Jiaozhou.
Awa is a shrewd leader. Whenever he goes back to Shi'an County to collect food and salary, and there is not much progress in work 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 Ava to play a big role, but having such a Yue intelligence team would be of great significance to seizing Jiaozhou in the future.
Lan Tian and Gan Ning followed the transport ship and docked in Yinshan County, north of Guiyang County, and then went north by land to You County.
Liu Biao asked Liu Pan to rush to Jiangxia's aid at all costs, but in Liushui he also encountered Cheng Pu who stopped him at all costs. Both armies suffered more than 50% damage this time.
Liu Qi, the representative of Lantian, came to work for the army. Liu Pan and several of his generals came out of You County for twenty miles to welcome him. This time kens * Zhang Si
Looking at the dozens of carts of goods, Liu Pan burst into tears of gratitude. He said excitedly: "There is no news from Xiangyang. If it weren't for the help of virtuous people, my soldiers would have fled..."
"The prince must be powerless, and the general in Xiangyang should be aware of the situation. The general has worked hard guarding the border these years, and the eldest son has also done his best..." Lan Tian said.
Liu Pan was a martial artist himself. He just didn't want to fight in Xiangyang, so he invited Ying to come to Changsha to harass Xia Sanlu of the Sun family. After hearing Lan Tian's explanation, he also had a wry smile on his face.
After entering the city, someone distributed supplies to the labor force, and Liu Pan led Lan Tian to the camp to meet his generals.
"This is Army Sima Li Si..."
"This is Colonel Wang Sheng..."
"This is Huang Zhong, the commander-in-chief..."
...
Liu Pan originally had a garrison of 20,000 troops and more than 20 subordinate officers. After the Battle of Liushui, more than half of his troops were damaged, and only nine subordinate officers were left.
For those ordinary names, Lan Tian still took a few more glances at the white-bearded veteran Huang Zhong.
Liu Pan was a little confused when he saw Lan Tian's behavior, "Mr. Ziyu, what's wrong with Huang Hansheng?"
Lan Tian nodded and smiled: "Although the old general has silver hair all over his head, he is still energetic. I admire him very much..."
"The last general is only sixty years old. He can shoot a three-stone bow with his two arms, and his whole body has the strength of a thousand pounds, so he is not old yet." Huang Zhong hurriedly cupped his fists and argued.
Huang Zhong and Huang Zu both came from the Huang family in Nanyang, and were appointed by Liu Biao as Zhonglang General to serve under Liu Pan. Because Liu Pan did not have many troops, he only fought in Aixian and Haihun areas, and Huang Zhong was older. , the highest official position, but was squeezed out by other colleagues, so his talents were not discovered.
"Hmph..." Gan Ning made a disdainful sound after hearing this.
Huang Zhong immediately glared, but did not dare to speak because Lan Tian was nearby.
Liu Pan saw that the atmosphere was getting tense. He immediately came 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 Xing Ba." Lan Tian introduced.
Liu Pan was shocked after hearing this, his eyes widened and he said, "Could it be the one who robbed Sun's camp with hundreds of horses? Gan Xingba who rescued Governor Su from thousands of troops?"
Gan Ning clasped his fists and said calmly: "No, I am the one here."
"Disrespect, disrespect." After Liu Pan saluted with clasped fists, the remaining generals, including Huang Zhong, also followed suit.
Lan Tian frowned and scolded Gan Ning: "Xingba must not be rude. I see that General Huang is also a brave general. We all work for Jingzhou, so who should we distinguish between you and me?"
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Gan Ning immediately asked Huang Zhong to apologize.
"Don't dare, don't dare..." Huang Zhong was embarrassed to clasp his fists in return. He was a little unconvinced by Lan Tian before, but now he suddenly felt a strong favorable impression.
Liu Pan looked on and was surprised that such a brave and rude man could be so docile in front of Lan Tian. He thought to himself, where did Liu Qi find such a capable person?
Seeing that the atmosphere was relaxing, Lantian immediately asked someone to bring in two baskets of lychees. He first picked up one, peeled it open, threw it in his mouth and said, "These are lychees grown in Jiaozhou. They are delicious and juicy. I give them to you." The general quenches his thirst.”
"Okay, sir, we must live up to your kindness. Let's all have a try." Liu Pan also took the lead in eating.
Lychees are produced in Jiaozhou. Due to the high mountains and long distances, transportation is inconvenient. Even in Jingzhou, few people have eaten them. Liu Pan had been lucky enough to eat a few at Liu Biao's house before, but this was the first time he had seen two baskets like this.
All the generals in the tent, including Huang Zhong, picked up the lychees one after another and tasted them and were full of praise.
Seeing everyone devouring the food, Lan Tian couldn't help but said: "This food is dry in nature. Eating more of it will harm your health. The climate is warm now, so it can't be stored for a long time..."
"It doesn't matter, I have many athletes, I'll give them a try later." Liu Pan said with a smile.
Lan Tian secretly praised that this man had some abilities, at least he did a good job in treating the soldiers well.
Liu Pan's army of ten thousand people will belong to Liu Bei in the future according to historical trends. Lantian is ready to take advantage of it as soon as possible. After all, the current situation is very different from the previous Chibi.
Now that Liu Bei has not become Jingzhou Shepherd, Lan Tian can only do the work from Liu Qi's perspective.
"Liu Jingzhou is old and frail. Cai Degui, Kuai Yidu and others all intend to promote Mr. Cong to succeed him. What does it mean that he is not a general?" Lan Tian asked deliberately before leaving. Control the big one, control the owl
Liu Pan was originally neutral, but this time Liu Qi's help in times of crisis made him completely change his mind, so he said frankly: "I support the eldest son."
Lan Tian nodded and affirmed: "If there are changes in Jingzhou, general please remember what I said today, and Lan Tian will say goodbye."
Looking at the retreating figures of Lan Tian and Gan Ning, Liu Pan asked in his heart what changes could be made in Jingzhou?
