Xu Shu's suggestion only received a response from Zhang Fei, while Guan Yu, Zhuge Liang, Lan Tian, and even Zhao Yun all had strange expressions on their faces.
After a brief silence, Zhuge Liang said slowly: "Actually, my lord has made arrangements before entering Sichuan..."
"What arrangement? Why didn't I, Mr. Zhang, know about it?" Zhang Fei's face was filled with questions.
Zhuge Liang then expressed his opinion, "My lord made Yunchang the governor of Jingzhou and Ziyu the deputy governor, just to let them stay in Jingzhou. Besides, Ziyu also wants to contain Jiaozhou, how can he follow him into Sichuan?"
"Military advisor, and I..." Zhao Yun reminded.
Zhuge Liang understood and explained: "Zilong is now a camp commander. He still needs to stay to take care of Mrs. Sun, so he cannot lead troops into Sichuan..."
Zhang Fei was a little disappointed, "The military advisor has been talking for a long time, and Yuan Zhi and I are the only ones left?"
Zhuge Liang shook his head and said: "I will also accompany the army to Sichuan. There are not many generals available in Jingzhou. When the time comes, I will also bring Feng Gongzi and other young generals with me."
Because Lantian is not very close to the gentry, the family members of the Jingzhou gentry are all settled in Jiangling, such as the Pang family, the Huang family, the Ma family, the Xi family, etc. Among the people present, except for Zhuge Liang, who represents the Huang family, the only person present is Guan Yu, who has high enough prestige. Can be calmed.
Both Zhuge Liang and Guan Yu can defend Jingzhou, but Xu Shu and Zhao Yun are not suitable because their foundations are not deep. Lantian can only have better room to display in a place with few nobles in Jingnan.
Guan Yu and others were relatively positive after hearing the suggestion, but Lan Tian was sitting there and had not yet spoken. Zhuge Liang noticed him and immediately asked: "Ziyu has a different opinion?"
Lan Tian nodded: "Yuan Zhi is both civil and military, so I'd better stay in Jingzhou to help General Guan. We can't leave all the three great military advisors. Zilong can follow you into Sichuan."
Xu Shu was a little moved when he saw Lan Tian. After Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong joined Liu Bei, he never led troops into battle again, and he used the name of military advisor in vain. He wanted to stay in Jingzhou to accompany his mother, but he felt that he had failed Liu Bei. Well, that's why I'm so positive.
"It's naturally best to keep Yuan Zhi, but Zilong is staying with Sima..." When Liu Bei's family affairs were involved, Zhuge Liang became timid.
"Mrs. Sun has become a mother, and her temperament has changed a lot, so has Zilong?" Lan Tian asked.
Zhao Yun nodded and affirmed: "There has indeed been some restraint in the past two years. The followers in other courtyards can also abide by the law. Now they have almost no contact with Jiangdong..."
"If you are worried, you can send Mrs. Sun to Quanling. I will let my wife take care of her daily. We cannot let Zilong waste his time in vain." Lan Tian added.
"Mr. Ziyu..." Zhao Yun was so excited that he couldn't speak. Seeing everyone doing meritorious service, how could he not be envious of himself as a general?
At this time, Guan Yu waved his hand and said, "I don't need Ziyu to worry about my sister-in-law. Zilong will go to Sichuan with his military advisor and his second brother in peace. If anything happens, I will discuss it with Yuan Zhi."
"That's very good." Lan Tian nodded.
After everyone reached an agreement, Zhuge Liang, Zhang Fei, and Zhao Yun actively prepared to enter Sichuan, and Xu Shu and Guan Yu took over the work of the three.
When Guan Yu and Lan Tian parted at the dock, Guan Yu said to Lan Tian: "The military advisor staying in Jiangling ensures the stability here. Now that he wants to lead troops into western Sichuan, Guan will have to move back to Jiangling from Jiangxia. No one in Jiangxia is suitable to go." Aid Lu Zijing..."
"The military advisor and others will take some naval forces with them when they enter Sichuan. General Guan will still go to support Jiangdong?" Lan Tian asked doubtfully.
Guan Yu nodded, "A person cannot stand without faith. I have already promised Lu Zijing, how can I break my promise? It's just that Shiren, Ping'er and others are not navy commanders..."
Fu Shiren, let alone commanding troops to fight, would be thankful if he didn't cheat you. Although he knows that this guy is not a good guy, Lantian can't talk about people behind their backs. This will make Liu Bei have strange opinions. In addition, this person is Liu Bei's early confidant, so he is highly trusted. Maybe ranked before Zhao Yun.
Lan Tian then recommended to Guan Yu: "Su Fei, the governor of Yiling, was Huang Zu's governor of Jiangxia. Why doesn't General Guan use him?"
"I almost forgot about this person. I will transfer Su Fei to the Public Security Bureau and be responsible for patrolling the Yangtze River in Jingzhou. He only went east to support General Sun Quan. Now I want to borrow someone from you." Guan Yu frowned.
"Who does General Guan want to borrow? Could it be Gan Xingba?" Lan Tian asked tentatively.
Guan Yu nodded, "What you said is true. I know a little bit about Ziyu's plan for Jiaozhou. Gan Xingba is the water general you rely on. If you let him temporarily command the Jiangxia navy, you should not suffer any loss."
"How can General Guan be the governor of Jingzhou? It's just that Gan Xingba once shot Ling Cao and fought with his son Ling Tong outside Yiling. The other party had a deep hatred for Xingba. Would it be possible to let him go to Jiangdong? Would it be inappropriate?" Lan Tian was a little worried.
"These are all personal grudges. Sun Zhongmou and Lu Zijing know each other clearly. It will not work if Su Fei is allowed to lead the army. He and Sun Zhongmou have a family feud..." Guan Yu analyzed.
In the past, Sun Quan attacked Jiangxia and made two boxes to hold the heads of Huang Zu and Su Fei respectively. It can be imagined how deeply Sun Quan hated Su Fei, and Guan Yu did not dare to let Su Fei take risks.
Lan Tian also wanted to say that Gan Ning's Baiqi robbed Sun's camp and severely damaged Sun Quan's face at that time. He didn't know if the other party still remembered it. Considering Guan Yu's difficulties, he nodded and agreed.
Guan Yu and Lan Tian traveled along the Yangtze River and parted ways when the ship reached Dongting Lake.
Lantian's ship entered the Xiangshui River, and encountered a fleet of ships approaching in the Linxiang waters. When it got closer, it was discovered that it was a transport ship from Quanling. After the ships from both sides met, the transport ships all stopped in the river to give way. The dark and short ships on the bows were The boatmen all nodded and saluted Lan Tian.
Quanling's transport crews were basically from Jiaozhou, but their combat effectiveness was too weak after being recruited by Gan Ning. The transport team was reorganized at Lan Tian's suggestion.
After they came to Quanling, they lived a prosperous life and did not have to worry about dying in the war, so they cherished this transportation job very much.
The boatmen understood that their good life was due to Lan Tian, and one after another someone hung Lan Tian's portrait on the ship. Later, it almost became a tradition of the transport team, which was an act of collective worship.
Lan Tian didn't know whether to laugh or cry when he found out. He originally wanted Gan Ning to ban this behavior, but the boatmen did not violate discipline and were more active in their work, so he left it alone.
After returning to Quanling, Lantian summoned Gan Ning and told him: "Next year, the military advisors will enter Sichuan. General Guan has no time to assist Jiangdong now. You should put aside what you have on hand and go to Jiangxia to help first."
"Is there no general in Jiangxia?" Gan Ning asked doubtfully.
"Jingzhou has been recuperating and recuperating in the past few years. The navy has not expanded significantly. Now there are only so many soldiers and ships left. General Guan is not safe if he is handed over to mediocrity. Xingba can help lead the area. Bring out the ships and people. Bringing Jiang Xia back is a great achievement, we can cheer for Sun Quan, but remember not to join the war lightly." Lan Tian continued to warn.
"Wei." Gan Ning smiled knowingly. He made Lan Tian's little thoughts clear. He can do anything but cannot suffer losses.
