Chapter 81 Liu Biao's Helplessness
"Commander Shi, this Changsha County will be handed over to you, and this general will return to South County to report to His Majesty!"

Outside Changsha City, Dian Wei rode on a war horse and smiled at Shi Qian.

"General Fenwu, don't worry, as long as Shi Qian survives, Changsha County will definitely not be lost!"

Shi Qian assured.

Shi Qian was the prefect of Changsha County sent by Liu Hong and Guo Jia after discussing, to be in charge of the military affairs of Changsha County, and Fazheng's grandson Fazheng was sent to be the governor of Changsha County to be in charge of Changsha government affairs.

At the same time, Liu Hong also appointed Lu Fang as the prefect of Lingling County, in charge of Lingling County's military affairs, Zhang Song's brother Zhang Su as Lingling County's prime minister, and the prime minister of Lingling County's government affairs, and transferred Xue Rengui to serve before returning to the imperial court.

Appoint Zhao Fan as the prefect of Guiyang County, the prime minister of the county's government affairs, Liu Tang as the general of Guiyang County, in charge of Guiyang's military affairs, and transfer Xu Chu back to the imperial court.

Appoint Gongsun Sheng as the prefect of Nanjun, in charge of the military affairs of Nanjun, and transfer Yizhou Dong He as the prime minister of Nanjun.

Lu Zhishen was appointed as the prefect of Wuling County, in charge of Wuling County's military affairs, and Gong Zhi was appointed as the county magistrate, in charge of Wuling County's government affairs.

As early as when Dianwei first entered the territory of Changsha County, Lu Zhishen led a Han army of [-], and successfully captured the entire territory of Wuling County in one battle.

It's not that Lu Zhishen's ability to lead troops in battle is better than Xue Rengui and others, it's that Jin Xuan, the prefect of Wuling County, is an idiot.

Hearing that the Han army had come to attack Wuling County, Jin Xuan, the prefect of Wuling County, raised troops from the whole county to challenge Lu Zhishen.

Chen Bing of the two armies confronted each other, and Jin Xuan went off in person to fight Lu Zhishen.

Lu Zhishen went into battle without any armor, and went into battle naked, wanting to fight Jin Xuan to the death.

Unexpectedly, seeing Lu Zhishensheng's tall, burly and fierce man, Jin Xuan was frightened and ran away, abandoning his tens of thousands of troops, and fled back to the city alone.

Jinxuan escaped, but the ten thousand soldiers of Wuling County lost their general, and there was a sudden chaos. Lu Zhishen took the opportunity to march straight in, defeated the soldiers of Wuling County, and recruited [-] survivors.

Jinxuan, the prefect of Wuling County who fled back to the city alone, had no time to breathe a sigh of relief when he was beheaded by a pure minister of the Han Dynasty, Gong Zhi, who was in charge of Wuling County, and opened the city gate to dedicate the city to Lu Zhishen.

Gong Zhi felt that Wuling County was not enough, so he helped Lu Zhishen wipe out all Liu Biao's loyalists in Wuling County, and recruited all counties in Wuling County.

As a result, Lu Zhishen, who led the army for the first time, inexplicably won the battle, and regained the entire Wuling County without fighting a battle.

Appoint Wenpin as the prefect of Nanyang County, station troops in Wancheng, and take charge of Nanyang County's military affairs.

While Lu Zhishen was recuperating Wuling County, Wenpin led [-] Han troops. After surrendering the counties in Nanjun, the army went straight to Nanyang County.

As a well-known representative of Nanyang County, Wenpin's reputation in Nanyang is still very high. Under Wenpin's soldiers, the counties in Nanyang County surrendered without any resistance.

Even the Nanyang County Government, Wancheng, and other strong cities were captured by the aristocratic families in the city in advance. When the Wenpin army approached the city, the various aristocratic families in the Wancheng city escorted the guards of Wancheng to come out of the city and ask for surrender.

Wenpin followed good deeds and made contributions to the great families in Wancheng, so he took control of Wancheng logically and brought Nanyang County, such a strategically important place, under the rule of the great Han.

Since then, the seven counties of Jingzhou, except Jiangxia and Xiangyang, the governor of Jingzhou, are still in the hands of Liu Biao.

Jingzhou Government Office, Xiangyang City.

At this time, the news that six counties, including Nanjun, Nanyang, Changsha, Guiyang, Wuling, and Lingling, had been lost and occupied by the Han army, reached Xiangyang almost at the same time from the mouths of the refugees in each county.

In the State Shepherd's Mansion, Jingzhou high-level officials gathered together, starting from the State Shepherd Liu Biao, all civil and military officials in Jingzhou were all sad.

After hearing that Liu Pan died in battle and that Wenpin led tens of thousands of Jingzhou troops to rebel and surrender to Liu Hong, Liu Biao's face turned red and white, and he almost fainted from anger.

When he learned that the Han army split up and attacked Guiyang, Wuling, Changsha, and Lingling four counties, and he did not receive any news until the four counties were captured by the Han army, Liu Biao went straight to the case and yelled at the officials in Jingzhou for their incompetence. .

When he learned that Wenpin had captured the entire army of Nanyang County without a single soldier, Liu Biao vomited three liters of blood and almost died of anger.

He kept yelling at Wenpin for being a beast and not being a human being.

Liu Biao hates it. He not only hates Wenpin's betrayal, but also hates the incompetence of Jingzhou's officials. He, the state shepherd, actually learned of such news about Jingzhou's life and death from hooligans.

His Jingzhou civil and military officials and his Jingzhou soldiers were unexpectedly unable to reach such a situation, and even such important military information could not be obtained.

He really didn't dare to imagine that if it wasn't for the sudden appearance of a large number of refugees from the four counties in Xiangyang City, would it be that when the Han army came to Xiangyang City, he, the state shepherd, didn't know that the four counties had already fallen into the hands of the Han army? news.

In fact, Liu Biao didn't know that the entire Jingzhou senior management, except for him, Liu Biao, and a small number of officials from poor families with no relevant background, those children of wealthy families had already received the news, but no one told Liu Biao.

At this time, Liu Biao was no longer useful in their eyes, and when the Han army arrived at the city of Xiangyang, these aristocratic families were ready to tie up Liu Biao and leave the city to surrender.

This is also the last little use value left by Liu Biao in the eyes of the aristocratic family.

Use Liu Biao's life as a vote to reduce their losses and exchange for benefits.

"It was ordered to Zhang Yun, the guard of Xiangyang, that from now on, the whole city of Xiangyang will be in a state of combat readiness, and the four gates of Xiangyang will be closed, and only entry is allowed, and no exit is allowed. However, those who have illicit relations with the Han army will be killed without distinction of official position!

He ordered Cai Mao, the governor of the water army, to return to the Xiangyang Water Village, and to be a horn with Xiangyang City, to defend the Han army from approaching Xiangyang City.

Send an order to Huang Zu of Jiangxia, telling him to gather troops and defend Jiangxia to the death. If the Han army attacks Xiangyang first, let him wait for the opportunity to attack the Han army from the waterway. Attack the back of the Han army and contain the front of the Han army. "

Liu Biao gave the order weakly.

After some venting, Liu Biao also realized that the phenomenon was not to blame civil and military incompetence, but to rely on this group of waste to defend Xiangyang. After repelling the Han army, it would not be too late to settle the score after autumn.

It can be said that Liu Biao is a family that succeeds and loses.

Back then, he rode into Jingzhou alone. With his own efforts, personal charm and talent, he impressed the entire Jingzhou, gained the support of Jingzhou's aristocratic families, and built the foundation he has today.

It is precisely because of the hypocrisy and snake tail of these aristocratic families, greedy for profit, that he lost control of Jingzhou. After such a big defeat, no one in the six counties kept his chastity, and all of them were at the forefront of the Han army. Down, watching the wind and falling.
