Jin Xuan got Lu Xun's order, gathered 15,000 stone of grain, and personally sent it to the barbarian soldiers.

Shamoko led the barbarian army and came ten miles outside the city to receive it.

When Jin Xuan saw that Shamoke was like a beast, he couldn't help but feel a little glad in his heart, fortunately he didn't defend the city, otherwise how could his soldiers defend it?

The Wuxi barbarians got the grain and immediately followed Lu Xun's order and headed towards Zhaoling.

Lingling County, where the government is located in Quanling County.

Lingling Taishou Liu Du is not very ambitious, and he is also not very bold.

After Liu Du read the letters of Jin Xuan and Lu Xun, he learned that Wuxi Barbarian Yi and Jin Xuan had obeyed the orders of Wu Hou Sun Quan and would cooperate with Jiangdong Li to seize the four counties of Jingnan.

Liu Du was very frightened in his heart, and hurriedly came to the county to discuss with the chief bookkeeper, and said: "Now that Wuxi Barbarians have raised 50,000 soldiers, and Wuling Taishou Jin Xuan has also responded together, what do you think I should do?"

Huo Kuang said worriedly: "Now the Wuxi barbarians have come towards Zhaoling, if we don't agree, these barbarians will enter the territory of Lingling, we only have more than 10,000 soldiers and horses, and the soldiers have been in the battle formation for a long time, I'm afraid it will be difficult to resist!"

Liu Du sighed and said, "In this way, we have to raise troops to respond to Sun Quan?"

The chief bookkeeper Ding Kankan said: "My lord, since Sun Quan is about to attack Jiangxia and capture Jingzhou, he must have made all preparations. In my opinion, Jiangxia will inevitably be attacked soon, and then Sun Quan will come to crusade against the four counties of Jingnan. Rather than waiting for the Jiangdong army to surrender under the city, it is better to submit to Sun Quan now. "

Huo Kuang also followed and said: "What Master Ding said is extremely true! Besides, there are 50,000 barbarian soldiers eyeing us now, if we don't agree, only the city will be ruined and people will die, so adults should think twice!"

Liu Du didn't have any idea, but when he heard the two singing and harmonizing, he immediately made up his mind and said: "In this case, I will immediately repair a letter and send someone to the Jiangdong envoy to make it clear that we agree to raise troops to respond to Wu Hou." "

Ding You praised and said: "Your Excellency's move is very good! Not only does it prevent the people of Lingling from being harassed by barbarians, but also after the matter is completed, you can also increase your official position and become a knight, and you will enjoy endless glory and wealth!"

Liu Du smiled, his heart suddenly settled down, and he quickly wrote a letter and sent someone to send it to Lu Xun.

Then Liu Du ordered 10,000 soldiers and horses, and prepared to go to Hanshou to join Jinxuan, leaving only 2,000 soldiers and horses in Quanling City, and let his son Liu Xian guard it.

In Chenxian County, the governing office of Guiyang County, Zhao Fan, the Taishou also received a letter, and was immediately taken aback when he learned that Wuling Taishou Jinxuan and Wuxi Barbarians were going to cooperate with Jiangdong Li and Yingwai to seize the Jingnan Fourth Army.

The first thing Zhao Fan thought of was to immediately send someone to Xiangyang to inform Liu Biao.

At this time, the chief bookkeeper Yan Zhao said: "My lord, let's not be in a hurry, let's send someone to inquire first, what is the attitude of Lingling Taishou Liu Du." "

Zhao Fan was stunned for a moment and asked, "What do you mean by this?"

Yan Zhao smiled and said: "Now that the Wuxi Barbarians and Wuling Taishou have responded to Jiangdong, if Lingling Taishou Liu Du also agrees, then we can't be left behind." "

Zhao Fan thought for a moment, and finally nodded and said, "Okay, just do as you say." "

Immediately, Zhao Fan sent someone to Lingling to inquire about the news, and it didn't take long to know that Liu Du also responded with his troops.

Yan Zhao smiled slightly: "My lord, now that the two counties have responded to Jiangdong, with the addition of 50,000 barbarians, we can't agree to it, otherwise the 70,000 army is coming towards Guiyang, how can the adults resist?"

Zhao Fan was not much more angry than Liu Du, his face turned pale immediately, and he said hesitantly: "That's what I said, but if we are defeated, we will die without a place to bury!"

Yan Zhao shook his head and said, "Your Excellency is too worried! Now there are a total of 70,000 troops in the Three Routes, and if you add your lordship, it will be an army of 80,000. Moreover, Wu Hou will also raise troops to attack Jiangxia, and under the internal and external attacks, Liu Biao's father and son will definitely be defeated!"

Seeing that Zhao Fan was still a little hesitant, Yan Zhao hurriedly added fire and said: "Since the three counties of Jingnan have responded, then the remaining counties of Changsha will have to bow their heads at that time, and the strength of the four counties plus 50,000 barbarians is nearly 100,000 troops, how can Liu Biao's father and son resist?"

An army of 100,000!

Zhao Fan thought for a while, couldn't help but tremble, and immediately stopped hesitating, ordered an army of 10,000, and took Chen Ying and Bao Long, two generals, to Hanshou to meet.

......

In Xiangyang City, Liu Biao's expression was very solemn, because a few days ago, he received a distress letter from Wuling Taishou Jinxuan, saying that tens of thousands of barbarians from Wuxi were coming towards Linyuan.

I have to say that Jin Xuan is not very reliable, and he actually forgot to call the messenger back.

Liu Biao knew that there was a flood some time ago, and all parts of Jingzhou were affected to varying degrees, and the Wuxi area was remote, so I am afraid the situation would not be much better.

It's just that Liu Biao didn't expect that these barbarians would gather tens of thousands of people to attack Linyuan.

Liu Biao remembered that during the period of Emperor Guangwu, Yiling was occupied by the Wuxi barbarians, which caused the imperial court to have to move the county and abandon the county, and immediately understood the seriousness of the situation.

Liu Biao didn't dare to delay for a moment, and immediately ordered people to prepare soldiers and horses, grain and grass, and baggage as soon as possible, and went to Wuling to suppress those barbarians.

After a few days of emergency mobilization, General Wen Ping had already led 20,000 soldiers and horses towards Wuling.

However, Liu Biao couldn't breathe a sigh of relief, and he was anxious every day, waiting for the news from the front.

If Linyuan County is attacked by Wuxi Man, tens of thousands of people will be slaughtered.

Thinking of this kind of result, Liu Biao shuddered in his heart.

"I just hope that Jin Xuan can support it for a few more days. Liu Biao thought to himself and couldn't help coughing a few times.

When Cao Ren went south last year, Liu Biao fell ill because of anxiety in his heart. At the turn of spring and summer this year, he had another minor illness, and he still doesn't seem to be getting better.

Now, Liu Biao feels that his body is getting worse and worse.

"I don't know what the situation is in Linyuan!" Liu Biao looked at the official document in his hand, he didn't know why, he had been a little uneasy.

At this moment, Cai Mao hurriedly walked in and said urgently: "Lord, something is wrong!"

Cai Mao is rarely so out of shape, unless something major happens.

Liu Biao chuckled in his heart, and hurriedly asked, "Deju, is it that Linyuan City has been attacked by Wuxi Man." "

Cai Mao shook his head and said, "No! Wuxi Man has already withdrawn from Linyuan and is now entrenched in the Zhaoling area. "

When Liu Biao heard the first half of the sentence, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and when he heard the second half of the sentence, he was stunned for a moment and said, "What did Wuxi Man do when he went to Zhaoling?"

"This is exactly what I want to say!" Cai Mao hurriedly put on the bamboo slip in his hand and said, "This is an urgent report from Wen Ping." "

Liu Biao took the bamboo slip and opened it to look at it, but it was only a moment, and his face could not be described as shocked.

"Wuling is too guarded by Jinxuan, Lingling is too guarded by Liu Du, gathering 20,000 soldiers and horses to gather in Hanshou, and Guiyang Taishou Zhao Fan is also going to converge, it seems that there is a meaning of going north to Nanjun!"

Liu Biao's eyes widened, full of disbelief, and the knuckles of the hand holding the bamboo slip began to turn white because it was too hard.

"The 50,000 army of the Wuxi barbarians has already headed towards Linxiang!" Liu Biao read this urgent report, his mind suddenly went blank, and his hands were trembling constantly.

"Ahem~Ahem~"

With a violent cough, Liu Biao only felt a surge in his chest, and his face suddenly flashed a strange red, and then a mouthful of blood spit out.

"Lord!" Cai Mao was shocked and hurriedly took a few steps forward.

Liu Biao clenched his teeth and said angrily: "What are the three counties of Jingnan going to do?
