Liu Biao was so frightened and furious that his whole body trembled and his face turned pale.

In Xiangyang City, there are only [-] soldiers and horses, of which [-] are newly recruited.

Huang Zu took away [-] elite sailors, and there were only [-] soldiers left in Xiangyang City, of which [-] were newly recruited.

On Jiang Xia's side, there are still ten thousand elites of Huang Zu, but they can't quench their thirst far away.

The crisis in Xiangyang City has finally arrived.

Liu Biao was frightened and angry, but more worried and fearful, he hurriedly asked: "Huang Zu loses again, do you have a clever plan to defend my city of Xiangyang?"

When speaking, Liu Biao looked at Cai Mao.

Right now, Huang Zu is defeated, life and death are unknown, Liu Biao can rely on only one Cai Mao.

As for Li Tong and Li Yan, Liu Biao did not fully trust their talents, let alone entrust the safety of Xiangyang City to the two young men.

Cai Mao also saw Liu Biao's gaze, but he was not thinking about how to defend Xiangyang City for Liu Biao, but how he could dedicate Xiangyang City to Hua Yu and make a great contribution.

Liu Biao's general situation is over, and anyone with a discerning eye can see it.

Not to mention Cai Mao, Liu Xian, Pang Ji and others also had the idea of ​​self-protection.

As for Kuai Liang, he had already lost the qualification to come to discuss matters, just because Kuai Yue was captured, and Liu Biao was not sure whether Kuai Yue would rather die than surrender, or whether he had already surrendered.

Cai Mao's thoughts changed sharply, he stood up, cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, although Cai Mao has little talent and learning, but in this critical time, he should share his worries for you."

"Although I can't guarantee that I can defeat Huayu's army, with [-] people, it should not be a problem to hold Xiangyang City for a month or two."

"I thought the lord of the government should send an order to rescue Xiangyang immediately."

"Once Xiangyang is full of troops, it will be as tough as a mountain, and it will be difficult for Huayu to conquer."

Liu Biao was overjoyed: "Only in times of crisis do you see your true heart."

"If you have virtue alone, why should you be afraid of Huayu's army attacking the city?"

"Degui, this is the tiger talisman for the soldiers and horses of Xiangyang City. From now on, these [-] soldiers and horses will be dispatched to you, and they will definitely guard Xiangyang City alone."

"After Hua Yu retires from the army, Gu Zi will be rewarded heavily."

Cai Mao cupped his hands and said: "Thank you, Mr. Fu, after Hua Yu retreats, it won't be too late for the last general to receive the reward."

"The situation is urgent. Please forgive me, the last general must immediately dispatch troops to strengthen the defense. I will leave first."

"Go, Xiangyang's safety lies with Degui." Liu Biao nodded, watching Cai Mao's back disappear, and then looked away.

At this time, Liu Xiancai tentatively asked: "Master, De Gui has been to Chang'an before and had friendship with Hua Yu, and the Lord entrusted the safety of Xiangyang to him, is it..."

Before Liu Biao could speak, Pang Ji smiled and said, "Shizong's words are wrong."

"Degui's younger sister is the wife of the lord, how could Degui not do her best for the lord?"

Liu Xian slapped his forehead: "Don't blame the lord for making a slip of the tongue."

When Liu Biao heard this, he just smiled wryly in his heart, Mrs. Gu?

Yes, she is Gu's wife in name, but Gu has never even entered her door, let alone go to bed.

It's just that this suffering can only be suffered by oneself alone, and there is no way to tell others about it.

Hua Ziyi, I am at odds with you.

In terms of career, Hua Yu beat him to pieces.

In terms of love, Hua Yu was beaten into a mess.

The hatred in Liu Biao's heart goes beyond mentioning how deep it is.

However, no matter how much Liu Biao hated Hua Yu, it could not save Huang Zu's fate of defeat.

The most frightening thing was that Huang Zu's commander's warship was also patronized by kerosene, and a raging fire ignited.

Huang Zu knew that he would be defeated today, and he also knew that if the army was defeated, Liu Biao would cut off his head, so he would rather die than retreat, and continued to command the battle.

However, the fire became more and more intense, and if he did not escape, Huang Zu would have to be burned into a charred corpse.

Huang Zu didn't retreat, but his personal guards didn't want to do it. They didn't want to stay and be burned to death, so a few people grabbed Huang Zu and forcibly took him away from the general's warship and onto a small boat.

The Jingzhou navy, which had lost its command, was completely in disarray, its morale plummeted, its combat effectiveness was low, and it was powerless to resist the imposing and explosive Chinese army.

After a great battle, 1 elite Jingzhou naval forces killed 7000 people, 3000 surrendered, and only [-] escaped.

The 3000 people who escaped, under the leadership of Huang Zu, did not dare to return to Xiangyang, but went straight down the river to Jiangxia.

Huang Zu was not stupid, he knew that after this battle, Liu Biao's situation was over, and it was only a matter of time before the city of Xiangyang was destroyed.

If he returns to Xiangyang, he will surely die, so it is better to return to Jiangxia.

Jiang Xia was his base camp, where his son Huang She, general Su Fei, and ten thousand elites lived there.

Adding these 3000 people, Huang Zu has 3000 people in his hands, which is his capital.

Whether it was a battle with Hua Yu or leading the crowd to surrender, Huang Zu could at least save the lives of their father and son.

Liu Biao heard that Huang Zu led the remnants back to Jiangxia, and was so angry that he vomited blood again and passed out.

After Liu Biao woke up, the first thing he did was to behead all Huang Zu's family members.

At this time, no one dared to intercede for Huang Zu anymore, although they all knew in their hearts that Liu Biao's killing Huang Zu's family at this time was tantamount to forcing Huang Zu to surrender to Hua Yu.

After killing Huang Zu's family, Liu Biao breathed out a bad breath, and he came to his senses, regretting it a little, but it was too late.

After vomiting blood this time, Liu Biao obviously felt that his body was about to die, so he immediately arranged for the funeral.

The position of Shepherd of Jingzhou must naturally be passed on to one of Liu Qi or Liu Cong.

Because of the sudden incident and the enemy soldiers approaching the city again, Liu Biao prepared to pass the position of Jingzhou Shepherd to his eldest son Liu Qi without any hesitation.

If it was in peacetime, Liu Qi would naturally be overjoyed.

But in this case, Jingzhou Mu's position is like a hedgehog, if you hold him in your arms, he can stab you all over and bleed to death.

Liu Qi's character is cowardly, greedy for life and afraid of death, how can he accept this mess.

"Father..." Liu Qi jumped out immediately, "The child has been dull since he was a child, and he is unable to bear the heavy responsibility. I'm afraid it will be difficult for him to take on the great responsibility of Jingzhou."

"On the other hand, the second brother has been smart and eager to learn since he was a child, and he is more than ten times stronger than a child."

"My boy believes that if my second younger brother takes over the post of Jingzhou pastor, he will definitely be able to retire Huayu and revive Jingzhou. Father, please think again."

Liu Cong didn't have any mental preparations, he was shocked when he heard the words, and cursed in his heart, Liu Qi, you are so vicious, you are trying to put me on the stove to roast.

Liu Cong hurriedly said, "Father, no."

"Since ancient times, it has always been passed on to the elders but not to the young. Passing on the young is the way to bring disaster."

"Right now, Jingzhou is facing a catastrophe. If the father passes the throne to the child, it will inevitably cause chaos in Jingzhou. Wouldn't it be a waste of money for Hua Ziyi?"

"Therefore, Hai'er implores father to pass it on to eldest brother, and Hai'er will do his best to assist eldest brother."

Brother Daoyou, brother Daogong.
