Chapter 558 Meet Sun Ce
Speaking of Zhang Yu, he has been running wildly since he left.
He also couldn't guarantee whether Liu Biao would go crazy and chase him down. He only had three thousand troops, so it wasn't worth the risk.
Even though Cai Mao planned the escape route for him, Zhang Yu did not follow the route they had discussed.
Because the route given by Cai Mao had to go through several cities and go inside for supplies, Zhang Yu would rather exchange all the supplies with points than risk entering the cities.
"My lord, we have been running for two days. If Cai Mao can help us delay for one day, then the enemy will not be able to catch up with us." Gao Shun replied.
Zhang Yu nodded and said, "Well, let's find a place to have a good rest tonight, and continue on our way tomorrow."
Zhang Yu and the others ran wildly for two days, stopping and resting for an hour each time. The soldiers were already very tired.
At night, Zhang Yu and the others camped in the mountains.
After setting up camp, the soldiers went to rest, and Zhang Yu looked at the night sky alone.
This time, although Zhang Yu failed to blackmail Liu Biao, he gained a lot indirectly.
"All problems have been solved, and there is a way to deal with Sun Ce and Yuan Shu." Zhang Yu said to himself.
To blackmail Liu Biao, there was naturally a way, but Zhang Yu made an uncompromising request, that is, Kuai Yue's life.
It is impossible for Liu Biao to hand over Kuai Yue, so a compromise cannot be reached. Zhang Yu knew this result a long time ago, and what he wanted was to fall out with Liu Biao, so as to give himself a chance to intervene.
I was not joking when I proposed to send millions of troops. Of course, I didn't really want to send millions of troops, but I just made an excuse for myself to send troops.
After resting all night, Zhang Yu continued on his way with his men.
On the way, Zhang Yu received Liu Biao's announcement that he was a rebel, and he played Liu Xie's affairs.
"Reply immediately and announce to the whole of Xiangyang that there are bandits everywhere in Jingzhou, and I have also been attacked by bandits. The one who attacked Kuai's family was also bandits. If Liu Biao has no direct evidence, he is falsely accusing the second-rank general who was personally appointed by the late emperor. Sheriff."
Zhang Yu responded immediately after receiving the news. The response was not to Liu Biao, but to the entire Xiangyang City.
What do you mean Jingzhou is full of bandits?
Didn't Liu Biao say that the bandits who attacked Zhang Yu next to Xiangyang City were bandits, so there are more than 10,000 bandits around Xiangyang who dare to openly attack.
This is happening around Xiangyang City, and it's not that the whole Jingzhou is full of bandits.
When the news spread in Xiangyang City, Liu Biao knew the news and was trembling with anger again.
"This Zhang Yu turned black and white, really shameless, shameless." Liu Biao cursed.
Although he cursed, there was nothing he could do. He really had no evidence, even if everyone in the world knew that Zhang Yu did it, so what.
There is also a lot of discussion in Xiangyang City.
"It turns out that Zhang Yu already had a plan, which made Liu Biao helpless."
"Tell me, does His Majesty dare to punish Zhang Yu?"
"Hey, Your Majesty, hehe."
"It's not good for Liu Biao to provoke anyone. Go and provoke Zhang Yu. With so many previous examples left there, it will definitely not end well if you provoke him."
There are different opinions, but Liu Biao has nothing to do.
And Cai Mao's family has been very lively in recent days, many families have come to seek refuge with Cai Mao.
Especially those who used to hang out with Kuai's family, they all came to join Zhang Yu.
If they don't come, it's okay, Kuai's family is going to collapse.
Although Kuai Liang was still around at this time, all the smart people knew that the Kuai family had to rely on Liu Biao's support to fight against Cai Mao.
But now, even Liu Biao has to give way to Cai Mao. This Jingzhou will belong to Cai Mao sooner or later.
Cai Mao has lived quite comfortably recently, and secretly began to eat away at Jingzhou.
He used Zhang Yu's strategy to sneak in without any conflict with Liu Biao and the Jingzhou family.
Sure enough, this did not attract much attention from Liu Biao, and Cai Mao's plan went smoothly.
At the same time, those aristocratic families saw that Cai Mao was in the limelight and did not affect their fundamental interests, so of course they were not willing to have any conflicts with Cai Mao.
Cai Mao's infiltration went very smoothly.
Of course, this also has something to do with Liu Biao's indifference.
Recently, today, Zhang Yu and Liu Biao were arguing in the air. On the way back, Zhang Yu often sent letters to Xiangyang quickly, and then spread the news through intelligence channels.
Liu Biao gets angry several times a day, but as long as Cai Mao doesn't go too far, he doesn't care.
In this way, Zhang Yu ran all the way eastward for a few days, and when he reached the Yangtze River, he got on the boat that came to pick him up.
After Zhang Yu and the others boarded the boat, even if Liu Biao's people came there, it was useless.
At this time, the year has passed, it is already January of 196, and Zhang Yu has been out for a long time this time. He has stayed in Xiangyang for a long time, and he did not expect so many things to happen.
"Let's go, stop at Dongting Lake, and then send someone to notify Sun Ce to see if we can meet," Zhang Yu said.
Zhang Yu didn't have a very strong purpose in coming to see Sun Ce, the main purpose was to stimulate Liu Biao and Yuan Shu.
Having had such a big conflict with Liu Biao just now, seeing Sun Ce now will naturally stimulate him.
When Zhang Yu's messengers arrived in Changsha City, Sun Ce was puzzled and immediately summoned his men to discuss.
"Zhang Yu wants to see me at this time, does he already know our purpose?" Sun Ce said.
Several veterans and Zhou Yu were there, and they were also lost in thought.
"Impossible, I'm afraid Zhang Yu already knew our purpose. We bought so many weapons and equipment, Zhang Yu must know our purpose." Zhou Yu said.
Huang Gai nodded and said, "That's right. Everyone in the world thinks that Zhang Yu is greedy for money and lustful, but no matter what he is, he is definitely a smart person. This time, he may be cooperating with us."
After thinking about it, Zhou Yu said, "The biggest possibility is that Zhang Yu also wanted to attack Yuan Shu and gain benefits, that's why he was so active in facilitating this deal."
Han Dang said: "Will Zhang Yu let us deal with Liu Biao? He had such a big conflict with Liu Biao just now?"
"No." Zhou Yu shook his head and said, "Zhang Yu is a person whose interests are paramount. He understands what is important and what is secondary."
After discussing, Sun Ce had the bottom line, so he took Zhou Yu and Huang Gai to see Zhang Yu.
Sun Ce also had a water army, but it was not large in scale. It was formed after taking down Dongting Lake. There were more than a dozen large ships and many small ones. There were hundreds of them, but not all of them came out this time.
But Zhang Yu and the others were on a merchant ship, which was very large, much larger than a warship.
Zhang Yu sat on the deck with tables and chairs arranged on it.
Zhang Yu was making tea on the deck, but the wind was a bit cold, but Zhang Yu didn't care.
A fleet finally appeared ahead, and the flag belonged to Sun Ce.
After a while, the fleet approached, and naturally someone went to contact them.
After some communication, Sun Ce, Zhou Yu and Huang Gai came to Zhang Yu's boat to meet him.
"Brother Bofu, Brother Gongjin, and Old General Huang, please sit down." Zhang Yu welcomed them on the deck.
"Brother Zhang, you are still so good at making troubles. Wherever you go, Jingzhou is very lively." Sun Ce said with a smile.
Zhang Yu invited the three of them to sit down, and then made tea himself.
