Sun Jian has been practicing troops in Poyang Lake, but during this period he has not taken military action against Jiangxia County.

But now, he suddenly began to gather troops and came to the west of Jiangxia.

...

On that night, Liu Biao was sleeping soundly on the bed. Suddenly, a housekeeper from the mansion came to report that Zhang Yun came to find him at night, saying that there was an urgent matter to report, and it was urgent.

Liu Biao sat up tiredly, put on his clothes and went to the main hall to see Zhang Yun.

Zhang Yun's face was indeed very anxious. He was wandering around the hall at this moment. Seeing that Liu Biao finally came out, Zhang Yun hurriedly stepped forward to pay homage.

Liu Biao waved casually, signaling Zhang Yun to sit down, and said, "Is there something urgent to come here in the middle of the night?"

Zhang Yun sighed and said, "Reporting to the envoy, the spy under the last official's command, Sun Jian suddenly raised his troops from Poyang Lake in the east. Han Dang, the vanguard in the front, had already broken through Chaisang. Liu Yao was defeated by Sun Jian, and Chaisang did not hold on for a day. Now he is under Sun Jian's control. The Sun family members, like the current Chaisang garrison, may be sent to Jiangxia at any time. Please make a decision quickly."

Liu Biao raised his hand, slapped heavily on the table, and said angrily: "Sun Jian's thief, it's really abominable. He was training troops in Poyang Lake before, so I had already sent someone to discuss with him, intending to stop the war and discuss alliances. On the surface, he negotiated with me and sent someone to ask for wealth, food and rice, but now he suddenly launched a military force, and was a despicable person who was untrustworthy!"

After saying that, Liu Biao looked at Zhang Yun and said, "Zi Xin, please send someone to Jiangxia quickly and urge Huang Chengxian to raise troops. Be sure to block Sun Jian east of Jiangxia and not let Sun thieves enter the country!"

Zhang Yun's face was quite ugly. He bowed to Liu Biao and said, "Ming Gong, the only one who sent troops to invade the territory is not Sun Jian's 30,000 troops. Yuan Shu still sent 50,000 troops. From the east of Runan, Cao Cao's 30,000 elite troops have entered the northern border of Nanyang. According to the investigation report on the west, Liu Yan sent 20,000 troops. The soldiers in Jiangguan were attacked by Jiangguan. The general of Jiangguan was suddenly attacked, and he could no longer support him. Niu Fu from Wancheng gathered 30,000 troops and went straight to Xinye to kill... Even Shi Xie from Jiaozhou also raised 20,000 troops, heading north to invade Lingling County, and the guards in various places all reported urgently."

"What?"

After Zhang Yun said that, Liu Biao's face changed. He just held the water cup in his hand and fell directly on the table because he was too frightened.

Zhang Yun looked deep and said, "Liu Jingzhou, the current situation is that the enemy troops invaded the border at the same time, and the troops at least 170,000 to 180,000, which is shocking the sky. What should we do if we do this?"

Liu Biao sat in place, stunned for a while, and then suddenly shouted: "Click the bell of the tower in my mansion quickly!"

Soon, with the provincial and ministerial palace as the center point, the rapid bell began to resound in the central street of Xiangyang City.

The bell on this tower has never sounded since its construction, but once it sounds, it means that an emergency occurred in Jingzhou.

Soon, many officials in Xiangyang City went to the provincial governor's office and followed Liu Biao's unified order.

Liu Biao was no longer the loose look of yawning when he saw Zhang Yun just now, but was dressed neatly, with a solemn face and sitting upright in the main seat of the hall.

After most of the officials in Xiangyang City arrived, Liu Biao looked at Zhang Yun and ordered: "Zi Xin, let me tell you what I said to you just now."

"only!"

Zhang Yun received the order and immediately began to tell everyone present about the critical situation of the six armies invading the border, east, west, south and north.

After saying that, everyone in the venue changed their expressions to be extremely nervous. Everyone looked different, nervous, frightened, serious, and worried... In short, there was no good expression.

Six groups of troops, east, west, south, north, and four directions, 170,000 to 80,000 people. If one is not handled properly, it is easy to be a catastrophe.

Liu Biao quietly looked at the expressions of the people below and said, "The six troops and horses are coming to attack our Jingxiang area. The situation is critical. What are the strategies for repelling the enemy? But it doesn't matter."

When he finished speaking, Liu Cong said, "Father, there are famous people in Xiangyang who are good at speculation and planning to make changes. It is not worth worrying about just the enemy."

Liu Biao looked at Liu Cong in surprise and said, "Who is the capable man Zhong Huang said?"

But Liu Cong looked at the current academic officials under Liu Biao with a smile and said, "The ones who used to advise my father to gather military power were Gao Gong, Fu Gong, Dong Gong, Xu Gong, Wang Gong and others. Now that they are fighting the enemy, they must have a good plan to defeat the enemy? Why ask us?"

At the beginning, Gao Chang, Fu Huan, Dong You, Ma Huan, Wang Xi and others advised Liu Biao to take back Liu Qi's military power in order to seek personal advice.

Now that Liu Cong speaks, he holds a gun and a stick, he naturally refers to them.

Then I saw that the faces of these famous scholars of the world turned pale and their expressions were very bad.

It was like Liu Cong was slapped in public.

Liu Xiu was startled when he heard Liu Cong's words and hurriedly reached out to pull his sleeve.

But Liu Cong shook it gently.

Liu Biao slapped the table heavily and said angrily: "Rareless! Don't talk nonsense here. What kind of occasion do you think this is? Let me stand next to the hall!"

Liu Cong sniffed, stood up from the soft collapse in discontent, and came to a corner of the hall to stand and listen.

It’s not that Liu Biao was angry. Liu Cong’s words not only slapped the Confucian scholars in public, but also slapped Liu Biao in the face.

After all, the person who took Liu Qi's military power was Liu Biao.

Wang Xi, Gao Chang and others were very embarrassed by Liu Cong's words.

Although the matter is not superficial, in Xiangyang, I only know that it is the famous scholars of today who advised Liu Biao to gather military power.

Now that the military power has been collected, when it is time to fight, who should this military power be given to?

If they didn't say anything at this moment, they would probably have their reputation in private, and the spitting stars among the people would drown them all.

Gao Chang thought seriously, then stood up and said to Liu Biao: "Liu Jingzhou, although the enemy has many troops and troops, and the troops are divided into six groups, our Jingchu area has always been rich, densely populated, and with abundant food and grass. Although the enemy is coming in a fierce and large number of soldiers, now it is just the time of spring, their food and grass may not be able to support it for a long time. We only need to send troops to set up important places in various places to confront the enemy, so that they will not cross the border. As time goes by, if there is not enough food and grass, they will naturally disperse."

Gao Chang's proposal is indeed feasible to some extent.

Liu Biao thought seriously for a long time and felt that only this method could solve the dangers in Jingzhou.

He immediately dispatched troops and arranged defenses.

First, Cai Mao led his army northward and arrived at the Xinyehui and Li Dian and Zhang Ren who were guarding there, and cooperated with them to fight Niu Fu and prevent the other party from crossing the line.

Then he sent a letter to Liu Pan in Changsha, asking him to governor Jing Nan to prevent Shi Xie from entering the country.

The third is to order Wei Yan to go to Jiangxia to assist Huang Zu in fighting against Sun Jian.

As for the two troops of Yuan Shu and Cao Cao, Liu Biao sent Kuai Liang and Kuai Yue brothers to lead Huang Zhong and Taishi Ci to confront each other.

He himself was in charge of Xiangyang City, adding troops and generals to various places, and dispatching them in the middle.
