Jingzhou City On the city wall, flags were fluttering, many figures were walking around on the city wall, and the city gate was tightly closed.
Cai Mao, Cai He, Liu Cong, Kuai Liang, Kuai Yue, etc., all the civil and military officials in the city stood on the city wall, looking out of the city.
Cai Mao pressed his hands on the city wall, and Yao looked outside the city.
The veins on the back of his hands were exposed, and his face was also a ferocious look.
His eyes also revealed endless anger and a trace of fear.
Now he also regrets very much in his heart, not regretting the coup, but regretting not eradicating the scourge of Liu Qi, regretting not sealing the four gates in advance and allowing Liu Qi to escape Jingzhou City, which led to the current situation.
"Brother, what should I do?"
Cai He asked in a panic.
Cai Mao glanced at Cai He.
What should he do now that the troops are approaching the city?
What else can he do?
If he knew what to do, he wouldn't be standing here.
"Have the people sent out come back?"
Cai Hao asked.
"All the people who were sent out before have come back, but none of the people who were sent out yesterday can't come back.
Now the four major city gates have been surrounded.
Don't say that the people who went out are back, even if you want to send people out again. , is no longer possible," Cai He said.
Cai Mao was helpless.
After receiving the letter from Zhang Yun, he prepared to join forces with Yuan Shu and Sun Ce.
However, he did not expect that the 20,000 naval troops led by Zhang Yun would be defeated before they could hold on for even a day.
Nowadays, Jingzhou City is surrounded by water and access has become a problem.
Even if you want to surrender Jingzhou City and unite with Yuan Shu and Sun Ce, it will be a difficulty.
Liu Cong on the side was very excited when he saw the appearance of Cai Hao and Cai He.
Since the last time, he was persuaded by Cai He out of fear to turn to the Cai Mansion and participate in launching a coup.
Although he took the position of state pastor, he was just a puppet of Cai Mansion.
He had no power in his hands.
He was still controlled everywhere and was monitored by people sent by Cai Mansion.
He also understood that he was being used by Cai Mansion.
After calming down, he wanted to understand that Cai Mansion was just using him to put all the blame on his eldest brother Liu Qi, so that he could be justified and let him take the position of state pastor.
That was also because Cai Mao had not fully taken over Jingzhou's strength. , when Cai Mansion has such strength, his puppet will be of no use.
After thinking about it clearly, he felt very regretful.
Kuai Liang, who was standing aside, lowered his head, his eyes flashing, not knowing what he was thinking.
"Go back home first.
Although we are surrounded by people, there are more than 30,000 troops in the city.
I don't think they will launch a force attack.
After all, their total number of soldiers and horses is only more than 50,000."
After saying that, Cai Mao put his sword on his hand and walked towards the city wall.
He was out of sight and out of mind.
It was impossible to go out of the city and call for battle.
The defender still had a chance.
If he went out of the city, there would be nothing. .
Cai He did not hesitate and followed behind.
The rest of the people also followed, and they were very worried.
You must know that most of their nobles participated in the Jingzhou coup.
If they broke the city, there would be no need to think about the consequences.

Kuai Liang looked up at the camp not far outside the city, and left with Kuai Yue.
"Brother, I'm really not as good as you."
Liu Cong recalled what Liu Qi said to Liu Qi before he fled Jingzhou City.
He shook his head mockingly, but did not leave.
He kept looking at the camp with flags fluttering outside the city.
Five miles outside the city, there are continuous camps and flags fluttering in the wind.
The entrance to the main camp.
Liu Qi, Guo Jia and others stood at the door, as if waiting for something.
After ambushing and killing Zhang Yun and others, and taking the naval camp, they rested for a night and then led the army directly to Jiangling City.
The Jiangling City defenders surrendered directly to the army and opened the city gate to surrender without fighting.
After all, Jiangling City only had a thousand soldiers and could not resist Liu Qi's army.
It would be better to surrender.
After capturing Jiangling City without any blood, Liu Qi did not stop and led his troops directly to Jingzhou City and surrounded it.
From time to time, a general and two guards rode towards the main camp.
When he was about to reach Liu Qi, the general got off his horse, walked towards Liu Qi on foot, knelt down and said, "I am hiring Wen Zhongye, I have met my lord."
The person who came was none other than the general who was guarding Jingbei, Wen Pin Wen Zhongye.
After receiving the letter, without any hesitation, he led the Jingbei army to besiege Jingzhou City, attracting attention, and he also listened to Liu Biao's words and recognized Liu Qi as Lord, I also know that the person in charge of Jingzhou will be Liu Qi in the future, not Liu Biao.
"Please get up quickly, Zhongye is really a loyal and righteous man," Liu Qi praised, and stepped forward to help Wenpin up.
He also admired Wenpin a little in his heart.
You must know that there was a coup in Jingzhou City.
Wenpin could have escaped, but for the justice in his heart, he led his troops to attack Jingzhou City.
He did not hesitate to lead his troops after receiving the letter.
"My lord, you've received the reward.
This subordinate is a general appointed by Master Zhou Mu.
How could Cai Mao and others do such rebellious things and just sit idly by and ignore it?"
Wenpin said solemnly.
"Haha, let's settle the account first and then discuss it later."
"Master please" Wenpin asked Liu Qi to go first.
Liu Qi didn't show any pretense and walked towards the camp.
Guo Jia and others followed soon after, but they were also paying attention to each other.
After all, they would work together in the future.
Wait for everyone to enter the main tent and sit down in order.
"I don't know how my lord is going to attack Jingzhou City.
Although our army has more than 50,000 people in total, the defenders also have 30,000 people.
If we attack forcefully, it will definitely cause certain losses.
Both Nanyang and Jiangxia are watching with eager eyes.
If the losses are too large, "It's so big, there's no guarantee that something unexpected will happen," Wenpin said directly.
Liu Qi nodded and said: "What Zhong Ye said is true, but now Jingzhou City has been surrounded by our legions.
It should not be us who should be anxious, but the people in the city.
It is impossible to attack by force."
"As for Nanyang and Jiangxia, there is no need to worry too much.
Sun Ce is consolidating Jiangdong and has no spare strength to reinforce Jiangxia.
Yuan Shu is far away in Shouchun, so it is not easy to increase troops; not to mention that the two of them will not sincerely Of course, if our army suffers too much loss, they will still take action."
Everyone nodded in agreement.
Although Yuan Shu and Sun Ce didn't seem to care about the situation in Jingzhou now, if there was an opportunity, they would definitely take action against Jingzhou.

They were still waiting and watching.
Jingzhou is a good place, who wouldn’t be tempted by it?
"Then my lord is prepared to wait like this?"
Wenpin asked.
Liu Qi shook his head, looked at Guo Jia, and said, "How do you feel about Feng Xiao?"
