Chapter 148 The Legend of Crossing the River with Brocade

"Blacksmith? There are some." Cai Mao was stunned at first, and then admitted frankly.

In today's chaotic times, the Cai family is so huge that they even prepare weapons, including family soldiers, retainers, etc. Of course, there are blacksmiths.

"I want to borrow ten blacksmiths from my brother-in-law with superb skills." Liu Feng was delighted. To be honest, he had a very impression of some very powerful knives, but he must not be a blacksmith. Only in the hands of a superb blacksmith can the impression be turned into a real thing.

Liu Feng thought about it and asked for ten. It was not too few, but too many.

You should know that although there are many blacksmiths in this era, most of them are used to make farm tools. Few people really forge weapons, let alone those with superb skills. It would be great if Cai Mao could lend him ten.

Liu Feng was not wrong. Cai Mao didn't have many blacksmiths with superb skills, only about twenty. He built excellent weapons and forged armor for generals.

Liu Feng asked for ten at once, and Cai Mao couldn't help but ponder for a moment. But his care for his sister still prevailed. After pondering for a while, he raised his head and said, "Okay."

"Thank you brother-in-law." Liu Feng thanked.

"Okay, just pay more attention to things here. I can't stay here for too long, just take a step first." Cai Mao said a little tired.

Don’t underestimate the pressure that the meeting with Liu Feng brought tonight to Cai Mao. Just talking about how to explain Cai Yu’s whereabouts to Liu Biao is enough to make Cai Mao busy.

Liu Feng could guess this point in his mind.

He couldn't help but say, "I don't know what my brother-in-law wants to arrange it, Cai Fu... Cai Yu?" Liu Feng wanted to call Mrs. Cai again, so he couldn't help but change his words.

"Let's take one step at a time, but this matter is not easy to fool." Cai Mao sighed.

"I have a solution in my mind. I wonder what my brother-in-law thinks?" Liu Feng looked up at Cai Mao and asked.

"Say." Cai Mao said.

"Cai Yu was attacked by pirates in the Dongting Lake on the Yangtze River and almost died in the Yangtze River." Liu Feng smiled and said.

"The disaster is in the east?" Cai Mao's eyes lit up. This is a solution.

"The water thieves in Dongting Lake are quite a disaster. In the past, Liu Biao tolerated their existence, probably because he was afraid that he would wipe out these water thieves, which cost too much. Now Zhang Gu, who occupies half of the water thieves in Dongting Lake, has become a general under my command, and the remaining Li Ran is no longer in danger. If Liu Biao heard that his wife was harmed by the water thieves, he would definitely raise troops to attack Li Ran. This not only solved the water thieves, but also covered up Cai Yu's incident." Liu Feng nodded. He thought about this for a long time and still thought that it would be better to let Cai Yu "dead". The best target of plagiarism was the water thieves on Dongting Lake.

Moreover, those thieves once really sent people to rob Cai Yu, and the half-true lies are also the most credible.

After thinking for a while, Cai Mao raised his head and glanced at Liu Feng calmly and said, "If Liu Biaozheng defeated the water thief and the water thief was defeated and fled, he would definitely defect to Jiangxia, right?"

"Cough." Liu Feng's face turned slightly red. He really thought so, but it's hard to say about this. The thief was not prepared to wipe out Liu Biao.

"Don't worry, if Liu Biao sent troops to conquer, I would definitely accompany you. At that time, kill the thief leader Li Ran and the rest of the troops. If you can release water, I will be waterproof. Then you should pay attention to gathering it yourself." Cai Mao didn't care, but was very happy. Liu Feng even planned this little water thief to increase his strength. It means that he was thinking about defending Jiang Xia all day long and leaving his sister here, he was really at ease.

Afterwards, the two of them said a few words. Cai Mao stood up and said goodbye, and Liu Feng personally sent him onto the boat.

When Liu Fengzhe returned to the house, he found that the lights were still on in the inner room. Cai Yu was wearing a coat and was sitting on the bed, and he looked out the door from time to time. He looked like a little wife waiting for her husband's return.

When Liu Feng came in, a hint of joy flashed in his eyes.

Liu Feng felt a little warm, he took off his clothes, hugged Cai Yu, and lay down together.

Let Liu Feng hug her, Cai Yu leaned her head slightly against Liu Feng's chest. Relying on his man's strong and powerful chest, Cai Yu quickly fell asleep.

But Liu Feng was open his eyes and couldn't sleep.

Judging from the current situation, the war between him and Liu Biao is absolutely impossible. In addition, with Cai Mao here, he can receive the news as soon as possible if Liu Biao uses any conspiracy.

Just as Liu Feng thought, Liu Biao was definitely not a threat, but a good back.

Compared with Liu Biao, Cao Cao, and Sun Quan are more aggressive. These two are ambitious, shrewd and decisive figures.

Among the two, Cao Cao's threat to Jiang Xia was not as good as Sun Quan.

Zhou Yu stationed his troops in Caisang, and the army could reach the city of Wuchang, Jiangxia's heavy city in just two or three days.

I hope Zhou Yu can leave him time and prepare. Don’t be as impatient as Liu Biao. Liu Feng hopes so in his heart.

In the Nan General's Mansion of Xiangyang Town, Liu Biao was like usual this day. He first used breakfast, then handled his official duties, and then went to the study room.

Liu Biao was called one of the eight horses. He was very talented. It was because he was studious and often couldn't put down the book. Therefore, Liu Biao spent most of his time reading books.

Even if I became the governor of Jingzhou later, this is the case.

Not long after he sat down, a guard came in and reported that it was Junshi Cai’s letter of letter. He also submitted the letter.

Liu Biao was happy and Jiang Xia took it back. Calculated the time, it was exactly four or five days. Wen Pin was really amazing. He asked him to defeat Jiang Xia within ten days, but in five days.

While happily taking the note, Liu Biao thought about how to reward Cai Mao and Wen Pin, and who should do the position of Jiangxia Prefect, who is even more troublesome.

However, after Liu Biao opened the preface and read it word by word, his face became darker and darker. At the end, Cai Mao mentioned that if he was the prefect, he would not listen to the tune or the proclamation. He couldn't help but pat the table and called out a slogan.

He wanted to immediately order Cai Mao to attack Jiang Xia without any consequences. However, Liu Biao was powerless to find that he did not have the courage to issue this order.

In the study, Liu's surface was as heavy as water. The desk in front of him was messy, and there were scattered bamboo slips everywhere. You should know that Liu Biao is a book lover and even cares about bamboo slips more than women.

This kind of tantrum about Zhu Jian has almost never happened, which shows Liu Biao's depression.

Like Cai Mao, Liu Biao never expected Liu Feng to be so decisive. Since he wanted to give the city he got to Cao Cao or Sun Quan, why did he fight to win the city so hard? The so-called dedication of the city to Cao Cao and gain wealth? It's a joke. Liu Biao didn't believe it even if he beat him to death. Although Liu Feng had a lot of wealth, he was enough to spend the rest of his life. He also paid for the so-called wealth and honor and fought with Huang Zu to the death.

No fool would do such a thing.

The only answer is that Liu Feng wanted Jiang Xia, so he would fight with Huang Zu.

This is also one of the reasons why Liu Biao ordered Wen Biao to retaliate against Liu Feng without hesitation, and he asked Wen Bian to go to war within one day and conquer Jiangxia within ten days.

The purpose is to take down Jiang Xia and behead Liu Feng before the four sides could not respond.

However, the development of things is often unexpected. Judging from Cai Mao’s statement, Liu Feng was willing to occupy Jiangxia, but if he was forced to force him, he could decisively present Jiangxia to Sun Quan or Cao Cao.

In his commentary, Cai Mao also praised Liu Feng. He said that when he was insignificant and weak, he was brave enough to attack Huang Zu, and when he killed Huang Zu, he was the general, and he could take it and let it go. In the case of unfavorable situation, he was able to exchange Jiangxia for a way out of life. He was decisive.

He is really a temporary figure.

However, such a person is the one who wants to go against him. Liu Biao feels uncomfortable no matter how he looks at it. Especially in the end, Liu Feng was still behaved when he got the advantage, saying that if he appointed Liu Feng as the prefect of Jiangxia, he would not listen to the order or the announcement.

What is this?

Logically speaking, Liu Biao should immediately order Wen Pin to conquer the city and destroy Liu Feng to death. However, Liu Biao did not dare to act rashly.

Liu Feng's threat is bloody every sentence, and every word is like a knife.

He could not imagine what impact Liu Feng would have on Jingzhou when he was desperate to jump over the wall.

Not only did it lose a barrier, it also lost a strategic depth important area. It directly burned the war into Jingzhou.

At this time, Liu Feng was like a child holding gold, with three adults next to him. Among them, Cao Cao was the strongest, Sun Quan's second son, and he was the weakest.

He was also the one who couldn't wait to get gold, but when he reached out to grab the gold, the child acted to hand over the gold to the stronger Cao Cao and Sun Quan.

Liu Biao found that he had no way to steal gold except to comfort him. In other words, he had no choice but to use Liu Feng.

He ordered Wen Pin to attack with all his might, but this resulted in the result. Liu Biao only felt chest tightness and wanted to vomit blood.

What to take back Jiangxia, what to consider who will continue to be the prefect of Jiangxia? After Cai Mao’s presentation was delivered, it became empty talk and a joke.

While Liu Biao was gloomy, he couldn't help but think of Liu Bei, Liu Feng's nominal father. Compared to Liu Bei, Liu Feng was even more difficult to deal with.

The territory is larger and the location is better. There are also many courage, ability and decisiveness.

Suddenly, Liu Biao felt better. I heard that Liu Bei forced the disaster away with his own hands. Now the abandoned son is even more powerful than me. I wonder if Liu Bei will be more depressed than him after hearing this news?

If you want to talk about Liu Biao's heart, he didn't have any good feelings for Liu Bei. Liu Bei was kind and virtuous in Xinye, and he was so arrogant to Liu Biao. Now Liu Biao has long regretted being inviting Liu Bei.

Therefore, Liu Biao gloated against Liu Bei and felt a little happy in pain. This relieved the depression in his heart.

Afterwards, Liu Biao was as deep as water and was dissatisfied with Liu Feng, but he also gritted his teeth and wrote an appointment document, ordering Liu Feng to be the prefect of Jiangxia. After writing the document, Liu Biao did not immediately send it out, but held it in his hand and sighed, "I hope you can keep your promise, resist Zhou Yu in the east, and resist Cao Ren in the north."

The only thing that made Liu Biao feel a little comforted now is this. Liu Feng killed Huang Zu and proved his ability. If he could truly guard the East, Jingzhou would be safer.

He felt relieved inexplicably, and Liu Biao's face looked a little better. Then he sent the documents in his hand to his personal follower and ordered him to go east and send them to Jiangxia.

After doing all this, Liu Biao did not think much about Jiangxia. What he now wants to do is to appease the prefects in various parts of Jingzhou. Huang Zu was killed, but he could not avenge him, but instead appointed the murderer as the prefect. This matter might cause turmoil in Jingzhou, so Liu Biao had to be cautious and cautious.

At the same time, Liu Biao's document soon arrived in Jiangxia, and Wenpin and Cai Mao also retreated. The vast army went back as they came. But when they went out, they were full of energy and aura. When they went back, they were a little disappointed.

In the lobby of the Xiakou Prefect's Office, Liu Feng took the document from the officials sent by Liu Biao. Looking at Gan Ning, who was sitting on the side seat, Zhang Gu smiled and said, "Let's post this news."

Liu Feng knew very well that when he occupied Jiangxia, his identity was a thief. Now, because of Liu Biao's appointment, his identity was an official.

No one can calm people's hearts more than this identity.

However, when Gan Ning released the news, he added fuel to the fire and covered Liu Feng's body with a halo. He said that Liu Feng crossed the river with one man and one boat, and retreated from Wen Pin's ten thousand elite troops.

A legend that countless people recited was left behind, crossing the river with brocade clothes.

However, in addition to this, it also added a lot of prestige to Liu Feng and to a certain extent concealed the negative image of Liu Feng's run away from Xinye in a mess.
