Summoning the best emperor of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 550 Song Jiang's Response
The situation of the Jingzhou Army has always been under the control of Fazheng. Now that the plan has begun to take shape, all they have to do is to implement it and wait for the opportunity.

Wenpin didn't know that Fazheng had set up a careful layout and plan for them. When he returned to Xiaocang Mountain, he was still surprised and happy by Wei Yan's sudden arrival.

Just when he was about to join forces with Wei Yan to counterattack Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, Huang Zhong finally got rid of Zhang Fei's entanglement and returned.

Huang Zhong was already puzzled by Guan Yu's sudden withdrawal of troops when he had the upper hand, but when he saw Wei Yan appearing here, he immediately murmured badly, knowing that Liu Bei might lead his troops to attack Xinye.

The new field is strong and capable, and now there is no single-handed general or elite soldiers, so it cannot stop Liu Bei's attack at all.

But all their food, grass, and equipment are all hoarded in Xinye, so there is no room for loss.

After Wenpin and Wei Yan heard Huang Zhong express his uneasy conjecture, their faces changed drastically, and without any hesitation, the three of them immediately led the troops back to Xinye.

Unfortunately, it was too late after all.

By the time they rushed back to Xinye, it was already dark and the crescent moon was just emerging, and Pan Feng had already taken everything he could take away.

The rest is thick ash and billowing smoke spreading in the air.

Thanks to Pan Feng remembering Fazheng's instructions, he didn't set fire to the whole Xinye, ruining Liu Bei's name of benevolence and righteousness.

But even so, Wenpinjun immediately fell into a crisis of food shortage.

In addition, they were ambushed twice during the day, and more than [-] soldiers and horses were lost. Such a bad record really made it difficult for them to ask Xiangyang for help.

However, the army cannot be without food for a day, and after pondering for a while, Wenpin still told Liu Biao the whole day's combat process in a letter. While focusing on the mysterious "Mr." that suddenly appeared in Zhang Fei's mouth, Wenpin did not forget to pour dirty water on Song Jiang.

What Song Jiang deliberately sent wrong information caused them to be ambushed by Liu Bei, and after being ambushed, they did not send troops to rescue for a long time, etc. They all said it again.

Wenpin's shame and anger made him blame Song Jiang and others for the defeat of this battle.

Accidental collision, in fact, this is really inseparable from Song Jiang.

Wu Yong had indeed wondered whether Liu Bei was using the method of enclosing points to fight for reinforcements, deliberately pretending to attack Bowang, but in fact ambushing Xinye's reinforcements.

But for some reason, Song Jiang frowned and thought for a moment, but finally refused to send troops on the grounds that leaving the city was too dangerous, and did nothing.

Obviously, this reason is not convincing. Fortunately, the people around him are all his own people. Although Wu Yong and others were puzzled, they did not continue to persuade them to think elsewhere.

After all, they also didn't like Wenpin Jing, and the Jingzhou Army who thought they were superior.

"General, Wenpin was ambushed by Guan Yu and Zhang Fei and killed [-] people. Even Xinye was taken advantage of by Pan Feng and seized food and supplies. This time, the Jingzhou army may completely envy us."

A few days later, Wu Yong found Song Jiang anxiously, and said in a hurry without waiting to rest and catch his breath.

"How could this be? Even if they lose, they shouldn't have suffered such a heavy loss. Even Xinye has lost."

After hearing this, Song Jiang couldn't help being surprised, and quickly stood up and asked.

Immediately, Wu Yong told all the news detected by the scouts.

"Oops, I'm afraid this will delay the business."

Song Jiang frowned when he heard this, but his city was very deep, and his violent thoughts flashed by, even Wu Yong, a confidant and confidant, didn't know what he was thinking.

"The situation is not too bad. Xinye is still in the hands of Wenpin. It is said that there is a lot of loss in food, grass and luggage, but Jingzhou has a deep foundation. They will fill it up soon after they open their mouths."

Wu Yong paused, then took a breath and continued.

The Wenpin army is Liu Biao's elite confidantes. This time the defeat has suffered heavy losses, and they will not be criticized too much. Wu Yong is more worried about whether Liu Biao will become more unfamiliar with them because of this.

Going to the cottage and becoming a bandit, and investing in Sun Jian to enjoy a moment of stability, Wu Yong is a scholar after all, no matter what he pursues, he has been wandering for so long, and he really wants to stay in Jingzhou and settle down.

Just looking at the development of this situation, he is getting farther and farther away from this dream.

Seeing Wu Yong's gloomy expression, Song Jiang couldn't help but feel sad. He licked his bitter lips and struggled for a long time, but he still didn't tell him the real thoughts and plans in his heart.

"Since the Jingzhou army is safe as a whole, that's good. However, in the past few days, Liu Bei's actions are quite different from his previous behavior style, which is really strange."

Song Jiang took a breath, calmed down his complicated heart, and talked about the abnormality he had noticed in Liu Beijun these days.

Wu Yong nodded approvingly and said, "That's true. Wenpin sent someone to tell us to pay more attention. He said that Liu Bei should have the help of a counselor, so he would come up with tricks repeatedly. It's just that he found out too late, and he didn't know who that person was. Who. But from my point of view, Yizhou has recently changed hands and was occupied by Cao Cao. I am afraid that many talents from Shu were forced to leave due to the war. The gentleman invited by Liu Bei should be a great talent from Yizhou."

"Yizhou?"

Song Jiang couldn't help repeating, it's a pity that although he likes to make friends all over the world, there are not many of them, and he knows very little about a closed place like Yizhou, and he doesn't know Fazheng's true identity.

"Actually, the most urgent task is not to find out the true face of that gentleman, but Bowang is a small city with low walls, so it is difficult to be a place to hold on for a long time. Now that Wenpin is newly defeated, if Liu Bei brings heavy troops to attack at this time, we are afraid It's hard to hold on."

Wu Yong shook his head and said in a deep voice.

The current situation is very bad for them, and he had such concerns when he divided his troops into camp.

However, the conflict between the soldiers of the two armies is too great. If the garrisons are not separated, they may break out of civil strife before Liu Bei comes to attack.

Hearing this, Song Jiang couldn't help but feel a headache. He thought to himself what's so good about being a general. Every day when he wakes up and goes to sleep, he has to worry about all kinds of things.

Such an idea is not considered extravagant and absurd to him, and everything he does now is for the realization of this wish.

As for now, he still has to worry about the things in front of him.

"With our own strength, we can't stop Liu Bei. You take out our army's rations and surplus armor and send them to Xinye. First, we can solve the urgent needs of the Jingzhou army."

Song Jiang thought about it for a while, and found a way, and planned to use this to ease the relationship with Wenpin first.
