Xiangyang, Zhang Mansion Backyard.

I saw in the pavilion beside the pond.

A square table, three women and one man sit around.

Fan looked at the mahjong in front of her, her narrow eyelashes were a little embarrassed. She touched a 30,000-year-old, and hesitated for a long time, looking at Zhang Xiu pitifully.

"Husband, you don't want to have 30,000, right?"

As she said that, she slowly poked out her slender hand and slid towards Zhang Xiu's thigh.

During this period, Zhang Xiuxian was bored. Most of the time he was playing mahjong with his wives and concubines. The rules started with simple rules. Zhang Xiu would have sex with whoever he won at night.

However, good times did not last long.

Zhang Xiu found that he couldn't cover himself, so he said he could not bear it for at least seventy or eighty times a night, and his body couldn't stand it. In addition, the group of people kept trying to lose, so the rules turned upside down.

These women won Zhang Xiu, and Zhang Xiu had to flip the cards at night, so the women were competitive and kept trying to beat Zhang Xiu and could not lose to him.

"No, don't do this," Zhang Xiu felt his legs tremble. Why is his little hand so flexible? Especially when he looked at Fan, his little mouth and tongue.

With those big white legs, be good,

It's so life-threatening!

"Don't worry, I can't win!" Zhang Xiu said,

He also took out a ticket of 30,000 yuan. He really couldn't afford it. He also had 30,000 yuan, and he was worried that he wouldn't dare to give it. If someone tried the water, he would naturally not panic.

"Thirty thousand!" Zhang Xiu said relaxed and happy.

The sound fell, and the three families all spoke.

I saw that Yuan Ying, Mi Zhen, and Fan all turned the cards open, each looking eager, as if a hungry wolf was so happy to see a sheep.

Zhang Xiu: "???"

Grandma is so good at playing with a hammer, and several girls join forces to cheat him. It’s so perverted. If you continue playing, you will probably be ****.

"I won't play anymore, I won't play anymore!" Zhang Xiu hurriedly escaped. If he hadn't been able to go out, he would really want to go out and play with Yin and Gan.

For example, playing with taking off clothes!

Tsk, it’s exciting to think about it!

Not long after walking, Jia Xu rushed over and looked at Zhang Xiu and said in a deep voice: "Lord, according to the detailed report, Yuan Shao's vanguard army has arrived in Chenliu, and it is estimated that it will arrive in Nanyang in another half a month."

"Hmph, it's so fast!" Zhang Xiu snorted softly, "Where is Cao Cao, what's going on?"

"Yuan Shao has sent someone to inform Cao Cao, but Cao Cao seems not to go east yet. I have asked Kong Ming to be more careful." Jia Xu clasped his fists and explained.

"Haha, Cao Cao is an ambition and will never be used as a gun by Yuan Shao. In this way, I will send a message to Kong Ming immediately and let him play Tai Chi with Cao Cao."

"Let him slowly dispatch the main force to Lujiang North, join forces with Liu Ye, and prepare to give Yuan Shao a Baoyuan." Zhang Xiu almost asserted that he knew Cao Cao very well.

With Cao Cao's character, it is impossible for him to help Yuan Shao, and it is even more impossible for him to help Yuan Shao defeat him. His lips and teeth are cold. Although he requested to ced a state, if he really loses, he will die.

He wouldn't do such stupid things.

"Lord, although Cao Cao is ambitious, once our army's main force is drawn to the northern part of Lujiang, Jiujiang and Hefei will inevitably be empty. In this way, if Cao Cao waits for an opportunity to go south, he may..."

Jia Xu did not explain, but he was worried that Cao Cao would go south and Hefei would be an important town. If he lost it, he could go straight in and head straight to Yangzhou, which would pose a great threat to Zhang Xiu.

"It's okay, Kong Ming knows how to dispatch it." Zhang Xiu waved his hand and was quite confident. He estimated that Zhuge Liang had more thoughts than he thought at this moment, and he just needed to tell him the situation of Cao Cao.

"Well!" Jia Xu sighed, "Oh, by the way, does Liu Bei need to contact us? He is focused on restoring people's livelihood. He thinks he wants to gain a foothold in Yongliang."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Xiu hesitated a little.

"Isn't Yuan Shao's rebellion of the imperial court already announced to the world? In this way, Yi Ji and the emperor's imperial edict were sent to Liu Bei to issue an edict in the name of the Han Dynasty to assist the Han Dynasty."

"In addition, let him know that the great man might use three thousand iron cavalry and he would go from Wuguan to Tongguan and enter Yuan Shao's rear from Wuguan to cooperate."

Zhang Xiu thought for a moment and said.

"Lord, Liu Bei has great ambitions, and at this time it is a critical moment to stand firm in Yongliang. I am afraid that he will not send troops rashly, let alone let our army cooperate with us."

Jia Xu looked solemn and said in a deep voice.

"Don't worry, he will do it. This man cherishes his name as his fate. He issued an edict by the Han Dynasty, and he will not refuse to obey. Moreover, he knew that if I was defeated in Jingzhou, he would not be able to protect himself."

"At that time, even if he occupy Yongliang, how can he compete with Yuan Shao in occupying the world? It's just a mantis arm that is overestimating his abilities." Zhang Xiu said with confidence.

Jia Xu remained silent and watched too many changes. He didn't dare to assert what Liu Bei would do. Maybe he would turn his head and attack Zhang Xiu.

"Okay, you go down and take charge of coordinating things and let all the generals prepare to defend against the enemy." Zhang Xiu said, "By the way, where has Pang Tong been?"

"Don't worry, lord, Pang Tong should be coming back soon." Jia Xu responded.

"Yes," Zhang Xiu nodded.

Then, Jia Xu bowed and retreated.

…………

at the same time,

All over Jingzhou, on the streets and alleys.

At this moment, a rumor spread rapidly.

"Have you heard that Yuan Shao has led his army south. It is said that there are a million troops, the first one is connected to a hundred miles. He is about to reach Nanyang, but the Prime Minister still..."

The people who didn't know why were all stunned.

"What? Yuan Shao led a million troops south? Didn't there be rumors that he captured Youzhou a few days ago? How could he go south so quickly?"

"And it's a million troops? My Jingzhou army is only more than 100,000, right? What's more, the Prime Minister is not here now, who can win? What should I do?"

I took the opportunity to create a wave of panic.

The people were a little nervous, but they only heard someone in the crowd shouting: "Hmph, there are thousands of soldiers in Jingzhou, each of whom is not afraid of. Even if the Prime Minister goes south and has not returned, he will never be afraid of Yuan Shao."

"That's right, even if the soldiers in Jingzhou are killed in battle, aren't we still waiting? Why are we afraid? The Prime Minister said that when he is here, he will protect Jingzhou."

"Now that he has not returned from his expedition, we should let us jointly protect Jingzhou. As long as Yuan's troops arrive, I will definitely defend Jingzhou with my flesh and blood. The Prime Minister will never be disheartened."

Another strong man squeezed up and shouted.

After he finished speaking, the woman pulled his arm and shook her head and persuaded her: "Husband, Xiaobao is still waiting for us at home. Can we go back first? Jingzhou will defend it."

"Women's opinion," the strong man shook his hand in an instant and shouted: "If Duke Ming was not clear, our family of three would have starved to death to Nanyang long ago. He was devoted to the people. If we were all selfish, who would defend Jingzhou?"

"If Jingzhou falls and Ming Gong is killed, who will be in the world who dares to make trouble for the poor people like us?" said the strong man excitedly.

His family was given by Zhang Xiu. He asked himself that this life was all from Zhang Xiu. If there weren't children in the family, he would have joined the army to serve Zhang Xiu long ago.

"You are right. The Prime Minister treats our kindness as heavy as a mountain. If there is no Prime Minister, how can we talk about today with us? How can we talk about today's prosperity and prosperity in Jingzhou?"

"That's right, the Prime Minister is willing to be enemies of the world for us. If we are prime minister and wife and daughter in the family, can we be enemies of Yuan Shao's millions of troops!"

"I lost my head, I'm so scary, I'm so willing to defend Jingzhou to the death!"

"If Yuan’s army arrives, we have no choice but to do so!"

For a moment, the crowd was excited, as if Yuan Shao's arrival only made them feel short-term fear, but instead aroused their inner anger even more.

Several tutors stood there in a daze, "???"

What about the promised panic? Why does this feel even more ferocious than the regular army? They all want to eat people, which makes them dare not say much.

As for the older generation watching, they nodded one by one, feeling a little relieved. That's right, they lived for so long and met such a good official as Zhang Xiu for the first time.

At the same time, they made up their minds that although they could not do their part, they could let their children kill more Yuan Bings for them.

The news of Yuan Shao's going south was getting worse and worse. It had spread in just a short while, which was a good thing for those tutors.

But they didn't feel that it was their credit, because the people were like crazy, spreading wildly, and they were gritting their teeth.

Judging from the smell of gunpowder, I guess I could kill Yuan Shao.

Outside Xiangyang City, there is a dilapidated village.

At this time, an old man in his eighties and nineties was probably walking step by step towards the open space at the entrance of the village with the help of the juniors in the tribe.

In the village, men, women, young and old, they put down their work and waited in the open space at the village. Most of these people were middle-aged men in their prime or middle-aged men over fifty years old.

When approaching the village, the old man had a crutch, which was quite majestic and said in a hoarse voice: "I heard that Yuan Shao led his army south. Now that the Prime Minister has not returned from the expedition, we should do our best to protect the safety of Jingzhou."

"You take this money. If a child joins the army, he will find someone to write a letter to me, but he will let Ah Hu send it all."

"I'm waiting for an old bone and can't stand it. Then let the young juniors kill the enemy for us." The old man pointed to the purse in the distance with a crutch, his voice still clanging.

"As for the content of the letter, you can think about it yourself, prepare it for me today. Tomorrow morning, let Ah Hu ride on the donkey in the village and send all the letters to me."

"No matter what other villages are, there is no coward in my Lijiazhuang. If I know who dares to fight and die, then don't go back to this Li family."

The old man mainly wants to say the last one. He is the most prestigious one of the whole family. No matter what, he will never allow the Li family to disrupt the morale of the army in Jingzhou.

…………

Kuai family, in the backyard.

Everyone was drinking the tea and was very happy.
