"Yes, my lord and Liu Biao have a feud, so naturally they will not help him, but it is not impossible to support General Cai."
Zhou Yu said."
How does Sun Ce plan to support me?"
asked Cai Mao."
I can stay in Jingzhou to support General Cai in all military operations, including the transfer of sailors from Chaisang."
Zhou Yu said."
I received a battle report from Jiangling, saying that you led the sailors to come with unknown intentions, but you ended up fighting with Huang Zu, what is going on" Cai Mao asked along the topic of Zhou Yu."
That's because I fell for Zhuge Liang's trick, I was originally going to sneak attack his troops, but I didn't expect to fight with Huang Zu by mistake in the dark night, and I feel a little guilty to say it."
Zhou Yu was blunt."
Then how many of Sun Ce's sailors are there in Chaisang," Cai Mao asked."50,000" Zhou Yu exaggerated the strength of the troops, after the failure of his sneak attack on Zhuge Liang, he had already lost half of the sailors, but Cai Mao couldn't find out for a while, it was best to be able to confuse the past.Cai Mao was secretly surprised, he knew that after Zhou Yu and Huang Zu finished the melee, they were intercepted and killed by Zhuge Liang and Wen Ping, and escaped from the encirclement with heavy casualties, it stands to reason that Sun Ce's army is not much left, but Zhou Yu claims that Chaisang still has as many as 50,000 sailors, if Zhou Yu is not exaggerating, then Sun Ce's strength is amazingly strong" My lord is still recruiting troops and horses, preparing to build a 100,000 elite sailors. ”Zhou Yu glanced at Cai Mao, saw that his expression was uncertain, and secretly laughed in his heart, Xiaoxiao, don't scare you yet, "As long as General Cai agrees to form an alliance with Jiangdong, my lord can help General Cai take Jingzhou by himself." ”Cai Mao's eyes lit up, if he got Sun Ce's help, then why should he be afraid that Cao Cao and Liu Bei would not be more happy if they took Jingzhou by themselves At this time, the spy reported: "Wang Ping's troops suddenly advanced dozens of miles towards Xiangyang, and their intentions were unknown. ”Cai Mao was furious and prepared to personally lead the troops out of Xiangyang to expel Wang Ping.Zhou Yu saw that the opportunity had come, so he asked: "There are just a few fierce generals around me, it is better to let them help General Cai" Cai Mao thought about it and agreed, anyway, he already had the intention of forming an alliance with Sun Ce, and now it is time to try the strength of Zhou Yu's help.Cai Mao led an army of 30,000 out of Xiangyang City, and in less than half a day, he met Wang Ping's troops stationed in the suburbs.Cai Mao put down the formation, and ran to the front of the formation with a cadre of generals to ask Wang Ping for questioning."
I'll tell Wang Ping to come out and speak."
Cai Mao's loud voice almost resounded in the sky."
That loud dog barks here" Wang Ping came out of the crowd and looked at Cai Mao coldly, "Who are you" Wang Ping surrendered to Liu Bei Not long ago, he had never dealt with Jingzhou and didn't know Cai Mao."
Lao Tzu is Cai Mao."
Cai Mao roared."
I was the dog, it turned out to be Cao Cao's lackey."
Wang Ping snorted coldly."
Wang Ping, keep your mouth clean, you broke into Jingzhou from Xinye silently, what do you want" Cai Mao was furious, but he held back, he wanted to know Wang Ping's intentions."
What do you want, what's the reason, I'm lost, can't I?"
Wang Ping laughed."
Since you are lost, then Lao Tzu will point out a clear path for you, you turn around and go backwards, take your troops all the way, and you can go back to Xinye."
Cai Mao knew that Wang Ping was talking nonsense, but he still pointed to the front and said."
Xinye was sent by Liu Biao, and I want to thank Liu Biao for going to Xiangyang for my father-in-law."
Wang Ping said."
Let go of your mother's fart, if you don't get out, don't blame Lao Tzu for being rude."
Cai Mao was furious, if it weren't for the fact that Wang Ping had Wancheng's support behind him, he wouldn't have talked so much nonsense to Wang Ping."
If I can't see Liu Biao, I won't leave, you know this."
Wang Ping got up as a scoundrel.Wang Ping's meaning, how could Cai Mao not understand that Wang Ping led the army to approach Xiangyang, which was nothing more than a threat to him not to attack Liu Biao, otherwise he would attack Xiangyang and directly seize the capital of Jingzhou."
It's ridiculous that you dare to threaten me with just your kind of people."
Cai Mao looked at Wang Ping's troops, and there were only 10,000 people, and he had a bottom in his heart."
It's more than enough to hit you."
Wang Ping didn't give Cai Mao any face."
Then you can go through a few tricks with me first."
Cai Mao couldn't bear it anymore, and raised her weapon to take Wang Ping directly.Wang Ping did not hurry to catch up, and after less than ten rounds of fighting, Cai Mao fled timidly.Wang Ping hurriedly rode his horse to chase after him, but unexpectedly, a military general came from the other side, and his clothes and armor were not the clothes of the Jingzhou generals, and he came straight to him."
Who is coming" Wang Ping gave up Cai Mao and fought with the general."
Jiangdong Chengpu" the military general shouted while fighting.Why did Cheng Pu run to Cai Mao's side Wang Ping was shocked, so he woke up and responded to the battle, Cheng Pu is a famous general in Jiangdong, and he must not underestimate the enemy.Thirty rounds, the two sides did not win or lose, and the fighting spirit gradually intensified.Fifty rounds, the two were in good spirits and inseparable.At this time, another general rushed out of Cai Mao's formation to replace Cheng Pu to fight Wang Ping."
Who are you" Wang Ping couldn't help but ask when he saw that he was fierce and his martial arts were much higher than Cheng Pu's."
Jiangdong Ganning" said coldly.Wang Ping was shocked, Gan Ning, the first fierce general in Jiangdong, actually came, could it be that Sun Ce and Cai Mao teamed up Gan Ning had fought with several powerful tiger generals, all of whom had a record of not being defeated, and the martial arts were so high that he could resist Sure enough, Wang Ping barely carried it until twenty rounds, and he couldn't bear it anymore, and he escaped from the battle with a false move.Seeing this, Cai Mao waved his hand and led the army to take the opportunity to kill.Wang Ping was defeated, and hurriedly led his troops to flee back to Xinye, closed the city gate and defended it, and complained to Wancheng.Cai Mao defeated Wang Ping, and when he was proud, he actually led a large army to attack Xinye.Zhou Yu hurriedly persuaded: "It is said that Wang Ping has the ability to be a general and can stand alone, General Cai only has 30,000 soldiers and horses, and it is difficult to capture Xinye in a short time, so it is better to return here." ”Cai Mao disagreed: "Wang Ping was defeated for a while, and his troops will not exceed eight thousand, I will attack with several times the force, and I will take Xinye in less than three days." ”Zhou Yu said: "But as long as Wancheng's support troops come to a rapid march, they can reach Xinye within a day, and then we will no longer face Wang Ping, but one of Liu Bei's four major military divisions, and Zhuge Liang's famous Fengxiao Pang Tong, we may not be very pleasing if we continue to fight." ”Cai Mao was stunned, Zhou Yu was right, Liu Bei's four military divisions were all famous, and none of them were easy to deal with, so he began to retreat in his heart.Zhou Yu also said: "Xinye is a poor and remote place, and there are not many natural dangers, so it has little effect on Jingzhou.But for Liu Bei, it is a treasure, Xinye is the springboard for Wancheng to march to Jingzhou, I really don't understand how you gave Xinye to Liu Bei in the first place, this is clearly the rhythm of opening a door for jackals. ”Cai Mao scolded: "It's all that damn Liu Biao is confused, when Zhuge Liang said that he wanted Xinye, he gave it generously, and now he can't take it back if he wants to." ”:
