When Yang Qing woke up, he found that he was lying on a bed and his wound was bandaged. General Cai Jin was sitting next to him. He was about to struggle to get up, but Cai Jin held him down, "Don't move, be careful that the wound would burst."

Yang Qing lay down and couldn't help crying, "General, Cao Jun framed us, saying that we brought unlawful weapons and took away all the people and goods."

Cai Jin also heard about this kind of thing, but he didn't expect that the Cai family would encounter it. He asked coldly: "Didn't you tell them that you are the Cai family's caravan?"

"Daichi Wang said, but the officer in charge said that we were spies sent by the general and became even more fierce."

Cai Jin was annoyed and didn't even give him the least face. Le Qun bullied him too much, so he said to Yang Qing: "You should recover from your injuries, I'll deal with this matter."

Cai Jin walked out and asked the patrolman Hou who rescued Yang Qing and said, "Who is the other party?"

"A brother knew the patrol officer, Le Yi, the son of Le Qun."

Cai Jin pondered for a moment and ordered his side, "Go and invite Mr. Xu!"

Mr. Xu's name is Xu Zhao, who is currently the garrison of Ye County. His family is a prominent family in Ye County. He used to have close contact with Cao's army. After a moment, Xu Zhao hurried over and said, "Is there anything wrong with General Ye looking for his subordinates?"

"That's right. A caravan in my family was kidnapped by Le Qun's son. I think there is a misunderstanding here. I want to ask Mr. Xu to go to Kunyang County, tell Le Qun, and ask him to give me some face and put the people and goods back."

Xu Zhao had a good relationship with Li Dian, the former chief general of Cao's army. After Li Dian was captured by Liu Hu, he took good care of Li Dian. Later, after the Battle of Hefei ended, Li Dian was released and was always grateful to him. If the Lord of Kunyang County was Li Dian, then this would be a trivial matter for him.

But now the Kunyang County Lord has replaced Le Qun. They have never dealt with each other. It is said that Le Qun is extremely greedy and he may not be willing to give Cai Jin face, but Xu Zhao had no choice but to agree.

Xu Zhao rode his two entourages to Kunyang County. When he was ten miles away from Kunyang County, a cavalry suddenly rushed out of the woods next to him and surrounded them. The leader was Le Yi, the son of Le Qun. He was as cunning as his father Le Qun. He knew that Cai Jinhui sent someone to negotiate, so he hid here and waited. Sure enough, he caught someone right away.

"Who are you?" Le Yi asked viciously.

Xu Zhao was wearing the uniform of a civilian military officer in the Han army. He bowed and said, "Bo Xu Zhao, the leader of the Han army in Xiaye City, is here to meet you General Cai's order. Please lead the way!"

"Hmph! I'm still going to find Cai Jin, but he sent a spy into Kunyang territory. What does it mean?"

Xu Zhao was stunned, "Who is your lord?"

"Don't worry about who I am. If you want to see the Lord General, I will take you there."

Xu Zhao saw them all murderous intent and look bad. He thought to himself, "Is this the son of Le Qun? If you go with him, you will definitely be killed."

He forced a smile and said, "I am here to deliver a letter to General Le. If you are willing to do it for you, I will not go."

He took out Cai Jin's letter and handed it to Le Yi. Although Le Yi was as greedy as his father, he was not reckless. He knew that he could not kill the other party's officials by chance. His purpose was to prevent the other party from meeting his father.

He took the letter and said, "I will give the letter to the Lord, please come back!"

Xu Zhaogong bowed, turned his horse's head and left in a hurry. When Le Yi saw him walking away, he sneered, tore the letter to pieces, and waved his hand and said, "Let's go!" A team of cavalry rushed towards Kunyang County.

Xu Zhao returned to Ye County, but did not tell the truth. He told Cai Jin that he was intercepted by Le Yi and led his army to threaten his life. Xin was also snatched away by Le Yi, and he escaped by luck.

Cai Jin did not expect Le Yi to be so rude. He was extremely annoyed, but he was a cautious person and did not dare to take action without authorization. He immediately sent a pigeon letter to Wancheng Wenpin and briefly reported the matter to him.

At dusk, Cai Jin stood at the top of the city and looked into the distance, feeling a little sad. Over the years, he was implicated by the Cai family and his promotion was also affected. Generals of the Jingzhou faction such as Huo Jun and Xiang Chong were promoted to partial generals, and his master Wen Pin was promoted to the governor of Xiangwan, but he stopped as the General of the Central Army. Although Liu Jing treated him well and even appointed him as the Marquis of Ting, it would be difficult for him to move up again.

The fundamental reason is that the Cai family is not aware of the current affairs, occupying too much fertile land, and short-sighted, thinking that the Xiangyang government did not dare to touch them. At that time, my father asked the family to retain only 500 hectares of land, and the rest was handed over to the government, but was strongly opposed by the family, and my father was so angry that he couldn't stand ill.

Cai Jin still remembers what his father said before his death. It would be the best if he could persuade the family, but if the family did not want to change his mistakes, he could split from the Cai family and establish his own family. Liu Jing would definitely be nostalgic and give him a heavy position.

Originally, after his father passed away, he should have inherited the position of head of the family. Unexpectedly, more than a dozen elders of the family modified the inheritance rules of the head of the family and unanimously elected Cai Lin from Mingshanfang as the head of the family. It was obvious that he did not allow him to inherit his father's ambition, which made Cai Jin disheartened with the family.

At this time, he remembered his father's words before his death. Do he really want to separate from the Cai family and establish his own family?

It was just because the Cai family had split once ten years ago, and Cai Mao established the new Cai family in Yedu and established himself as the head of the family. Cai Jin couldn't bear to have the family split again, so he never fulfilled his father's last words. But at this time, a strong desire to break with the family suddenly emerged in his heart, and Cai Jin couldn't help but clench his fists slowly.

At this moment, a soldier rushed over and shouted, "General, the urgent letter of the governor."

Cai Jin was excited. This was the master's reply to him. He hurriedly said, "Give me the letter!"

The soldier handed a pigeon letter to Cai Jin. Cai Jin opened the pigeon letter and squinted his eyes and saw that there were only four words on the letter, "Provoke trouble!"

Cai Jin nodded slowly, and he understood what the master meant.

The border between Ye County and Kunyang County is actually a small river. The locals call Liushui. The river is about fifty miles long and finally pours in purified water. The riverbed is not wide, and the widest part of the river surface is only four meters, and the narrowest part is less than two meters. Yekun Bridge is built on this willow water.

One of the biggest characteristics of Liushui is that both sides of the riverbed are covered with willow trees. When mid-spring comes, willow catkins are flying all over the sky, which is spectacular. However, since Cao Han formed a confrontation here, the atmosphere here has become tense, and every day, each patrol soldiers patrolling back and forth on both sides of Liushui.

At night, a Cao army patrol team of more than 30 people was patrolling the north bank of Liushui as usual. They paid attention to the movements on the other side from time to time. When they met the Han army patrol soldiers on the other side, they would also happen every night. Scolding a few words or throwing a few stones, which was also a pleasure for the Cao army soldiers.

But tonight they never encountered the Han army patrol on the other side of the shore. Several soldiers couldn't help but mutter, "They all have vacations, but we have to do hard work every day."

"Shut up! Patrol well." The chief of the head village turned around and scolded the soldiers.

At this moment, countless black shadows suddenly surged from all directions, surrounding them. The Cao army patrol team was so scared that they looked at each other. I wonder what happened? The head of the village chief recognized the other party. It turned out to be a Han soldiers, with two or three hundred people raised their crossbows and pointed them at them. He felt a little furious and asked in fear: "What are you going to do?"

The generals of the Han army waved their hand and "take them all!"

Overnight, all five patrol teams of Cao's army were captured by the Han army. This incident alarmed the chief general of Cao's army, Le Qun. He was furious and led 3,000 soldiers to Yekun Bridge early the next morning.

At this time, Cai Jin was also prepared. He had led thousands of soldiers to ambush in the woods on the south bank of the bridge, waiting for Cao's army to take the bait.

Le Qun waited for a while, and saw that there was no Han army patrol forward to ask, he became impatient and turned to a Yajiangling and said, "Take five hundred brothers and kill me, and grab a Han army patrol for me."

"Abide by the order!"

The tooth general waved his hand and led five hundred subordinates to cross Yekun Bridge and ran towards the official road where the Han army often patrolled, but only ran a hundred steps. A clapper sound came from the woods on both sides. Arrows in the woods were fired at once. Cao's soldiers were caught off guard and were shot over a hundred people. The other soldiers were scared to death and turned around and fled. Another wave of arrows shot over. This time the arrows were more dense and more than two hundred people were shot over. Even Cao's general was hit by several arrows and fell from the horse on the spot.

Le Qun in the distance was shocked. The Han army was ambushed. He urgently ordered to retreat left and right. The 2,500 Cao army retreated back like a tide. It retreated for a full mile before slowly stopping. Only more than 80 people of the five hundred Cao army entering the territory of Ye County fled back, and many of them were injured by arrows, causing heavy losses.

Le Qun looked at the Han soldiers standing on the other side of Liushui from afar, and was so angry that he trembled all over. The Han army obviously used a trick to trick him. He could no longer bear it and shouted: "Three armies line up and kill them!"

The Cao army quickly lined up, and teams of soldiers held shields in their hands and slowly moved closer to Liuhe. At this time, the Han army had already arranged an arrow formation, and a thousand crossbows aimed at the slowly approaching Cao army soldiers. However, the Cao army did not enter the range of the crossbow, but confronted the Han army 150 steps away.

Le Qun was gradually calming down at this time. He didn't understand why the Han army suddenly provoked trouble, but the Han army must have a purpose in doing so. He should not be too impulsive to avoid falling into the trap of the Han army.

He sent a soldier to shout loudly: "Both sides patrol their own, why did the Han army arrest our patrol soldiers?"

The Han army ignored it and did not reply. Instead, an arrow shot over the head of the shouting soldiers, which scared the soldiers to escape. At this moment, the sound of drums suddenly came loudly behind Cao's army, and a Han army came from behind. The soldiers behind were not prepared enough and suddenly became in chaos.

Cai Jin immediately ordered: "Kill it!"

Three thousand Han troops shouted in unison, rushed across Yekunqiao and killed Cao's army. Cao's army was attacked from both sides and escaped in chaos. Seeing that the situation was not good, Le Qun fled westward, and Cao's army was defeated.

The Han army chased and killed Cao's army, crying for their father and mother, and countless surrendered soldiers. The road to retreat north was blocked by the Han army. Le Qun could not return to the city, so he had to lead the remaining soldiers to flee westward. At this time, Le Yi, who was guarding the city in Kunyang, heard that the Han army had launched a large-scale attack, and his father was defeated, and his whereabouts were unknown. He was extremely panicked and worried that he could not defend the city, so he gave up Kunyang County and led the soldiers guarding the city to evacuate north.
