    As for the soldiers, in view of the ongoing war in Yangzhou, in order to ensure safety, Liu Xin, in addition to leading five thousand sailors and soldiers, also found three thousand black scale troops who had cooperated before and were not afraid of seasickness, plus some auxiliary personnel, there were about ten thousand  People and nearly a hundred ships of various sizes left Ninghe County and headed south to Yangzhou.

    It took less than a month to get from Ninghe County to Yangzhou, but when she arrived near Yangzhou, Liu Xin encountered a problem, that is, how to get to Lujiang.

    Although Lujiang River belongs to Yangzhou, it is close to Yuzhou and separated from the sea by Danyang County and Wu County.

    His subordinate Xu Sheng suggested landing at Qiantang in Wu County and proceeding by land to Lujiang River.

    But Liu Xin¡¯s eyes were fixed on the Yangtze River on the map.

    Taking the water route is faster than taking the land route, but it is difficult and dangerous along the way, and it is easy to be attacked.  After Liu Xin thought about it for a while, she finally adopted Xu Sheng's suggestion.

    Yangzhou¡¯s navy was not deployed on the sea, but was deployed along the Yangtze River. No one would have thought that someone would attack from the sea.  So Liu Xin's fleet sailed to Qiantang in a big way.

    With such a large force landing, it was impossible to hide it from others, and Liu Xin never thought of hiding it from others and letting his men wash ashore directly.

    The defense of Qiantang County (later near Hangzhou) was weak. Liu Yao and Sun Ce fought fiercely in Danyang County. The war did not spread here for the time being, and there were not many county soldiers to defend it.  Caught off guard, Qiantang County quickly fell into the hands of Liu Xin, and the prefect was captured without much effort.

    After occupying Qiantang County, Liu Xin waved her hand and tightly closed the gates of Qiantang County, prohibiting anyone from entering or exiting. She asked the prefect to come out to calm the people, saying that there were enemies outside who were causing trouble and to stabilize the people.

    Liu Xin never thought of occupying this place for a long time. This is Yangzhou, which is too far away from Youzhou. It is difficult to control people as puppets just like controlling Chunyu Qiong.

    She is occupying Qiantang County temporarily. She will leave here when she receives someone.

    Afterwards, Liu Xin left Xu Sheng and Dong Xi to lead 5,000 soldiers to garrison Qiantang County, while she took Gan Ning Lingcao and several others to lead 3,000 black scale troops.

    Three thousand black scale troops here in Yangzhou are enough to be invincible.

    Along the way, Liu Xin led the team to travel day and night, traveling quietly and trying not to attract attention.  Yangzhou was Liu Yao's territory. Fortunately, Liu Yao concentrated his troops to deal with Sun Ce, and the hinterland was empty. In addition, Liu Xin was able to pass through Wu County, Danyang County, and finally reached the Yangtze River without incident.

    Then Liu Xin encountered another problem. She had no boat to cross the river.

    She simply became cruel and robbed Hulin (the area near Chizhou in later generations), crossed the river with the robbed boat, and landed at Wankou.

    Today¡¯s Wankou is not yet an important town during the Sun Quan period. There is no defensive force here and it is just an ordinary small town. After Liu Xin crossed the river, the people here were really panicked for a while.  However, they were relieved to see that this black army was innocent and in good order.

    Arriving at Wankou is equivalent to entering Wanxian County.  This is Lujiang. For Ding Feng and Chen Wu, who are from Lujiang, they can walk here with their eyes closed. They are very familiar with this place.

    Liu Xin did not directly lead the troops to attack Wan County. Wan County was the new administrative seat of Lujiang (after Shu County was captured by Sun Ce, it was no longer suitable to be the administrative seat). The defense force was so strong that it was difficult for three thousand troops to make a difference.

    Liu Xin originally wanted to take a few people to find Mr. Qiao personally, and ask Mr. Qiao to secretly withdraw from Wan County and then join the large army.

    However, Huang Diewu objected because it was too dangerous.  Liu Xun, the prefect of Lujiang, was a subordinate of Yuan Shu, and this place could be regarded as Yuan Shu's territory.  Once Yuan Shu knew that Liu Zhe's sister was here, it goes without saying what Yuan Shu would do.

    Liu Xin couldn't defeat her, so she asked Huang Diewu to dress up in disguise, and then went to find Mr. Qiao with Cai Yong's autographed letter and tokens.

    However, what Liu Xin didn't know was that in the northeast, there was a ship going upstream along the Yangtze River and heading straight for Wankou.

    ?¡­

    Eleven-year-old Sun Quan stood at the bow of the ship, facing the river wind. He had a pair of eyes that were different from those of Han people. His green eyes gave him a different kind of weird look.

    Sun Ce¡¯s subordinate Lu Fan came over and said respectfully to him: ¡°Second Young Master, we are almost at Wankou.¡±

    Sun Quan nodded and said to Lu Fan: "Please be careful, General Lu, to prevent Liu Yao's troops from Hu Lin from sneak attacks."

    Lu Fan nodded and said: "Second Young Master, please rest assured, we are fully prepared."

    This fleet did not fly Sun Ce¡¯s flag to avoid attracting the attention of Liu Yao¡¯s men.

    Sun Quan heard this and said to himself:"I hope Liu Xun's mission this time will be successful."

    "Second Young Master, don't worry. Liu Xun is very loyal to Yuan Shu. He lured him with money and made Liu Xun think he was helping Yuan Shu. He will definitely agree to send troops to help his lord." Lu Fan comforted him.

    "I hope so." Sun Quan sighed, with worry in his eyes, and asked Lu Fan: "Do you think we can defeat Liu Yao?"

    Sun Ce has been attacking Liu Yao for half a year, but he has been unable to defeat Liu Yao. Liu Yao has been keeping him at the south bank of the Yangtze River.

    This time Sun Quan sent Liu Xun as envoy in the hope that Liu Xun would send troops to help Sun Ce
