    During the water battle in Chibi, Zhou Yu pretended to be defeated to lure the enemy, and then sent fire ships to attack Li Yan's large boat. In the melee, Li Yan's Jing Yi Zhou Division was defeated. If the follow-up warships had not been rescued in time, Jing Yi Zhou Division would have suffered a disastrous defeat.

    But this water war still had many adverse effects on the Northern Army.

    Li, who commanded the elite naval division, was seriously injured. None of the Northern Army generals, who were better at cavalry than boats, could take on the important task of forwarding. In addition, Jing Yi's naval division suffered heavy losses. The morale of the Northern Army plummeted, and there was no knowledge in the army.  Scholars have secretly predicted that the southern expedition led by the general will not be successful.

    The water battle in Chibi has fully proved that with the current strength of the Northern Army's warships, it will not be able to defeat the Sun-Liu coalition led by Zhou Yu on the water in a short time. The two armies will once again fall into a tense confrontation with constant small battles. If the Northern Army  If you want to win, you have to defeat the Sun-Liu coalition, but the Northern Army's logistics line is several times farther than that of the Sun-Liu coalition. It was the Northern Army led by Yan Xing that ultimately lost due to sheer attrition.

    " Moreover, it is the cold winter season now, with little rain and solid land, suitable for riding and riding in the north.  But once the season changes, the spring rains will continue, the mud will be difficult to travel, the tide will rise, and the water network will be crisscrossed. The warships of the Sun and Liu coalition will use the waterways to attack in large numbers.  It's very difficult.

    Jia Xu and others were very worried, but they did not dare to face the admonition directly. They could only remind the general of the current situation by making insinuations. However, the general was noncommittal and reluctant to retreat.

    Wulin, the camp of the Northern Army.

    General Yan Xing, who had just led his generals to inspect the water stronghold, returned to his tent. After his soldiers helped him remove his heavy armor and put on light uniforms, he waved the soldiers in charge to leave, leaving him alone.  Sitting on the rug covered with felt.

    Two of the three candles on the candlestick in front of the case were blown out by the wind, and the tent suddenly became dark and deserted.  The only remaining candle flickered with light, elongating the figure of the person in the tent and imprinting it on the dim tent wall.

    He reached out and rubbed the sore joints on his knees and sighed slightly.

    After all, it was not Yan Yanming who came out of Jincheng and charged into battle at the beginning of the year. Years of battles had left him with a lot of injuries. When he went on the expedition to Wuhuan, he felt a little inadequate. After the great success of the Southern Expedition this time, he felt that  The feeling did not decrease but increased, becoming more intense.

    The weather in the south made him realize the fragility of his army, and he also realized that his health was far worse than when he joined the army.

    But he can't show these in front of others. Not long ago, the setback of the naval division has exposed the Northern Army's external strength and internal incompetence. At this time, as the commander-in-chief, he cannot show any sign of cowardice or weakness. He must use the simplest and most powerful words and deeds to tell the truth.  For all the people in the army, their commander is still strong and can still lead them to break through the current difficulties and win one victory after another as before.

    The main camp of the Sun-Liu coalition forces and the Chinese military tent.

    The melodious and melodious sound of the piano sounded in the tent. The guards guarding the main general's tent at night smiled when they heard the sound and listened quietly.

    ¡°Zheng¡ª¡ª¡± But this time the sound of the piano was suddenly interrupted, the tent door was opened by a big hand, and a tall figure appeared in the tent.

    As a captain of the Zan Army, Lu Su had the right to directly meet with the commander-in-chief of the coalition forces.

    "Gong Jin, you are really comfortable as the commander-in-chief. The enemy has been silent for many days, but you can still calm down and play the piano every night¡ª¡ª"

    Lu Su glanced at the brightly lit tent, took off his cloak and shook it at the entrance of the tent.  He strode over to the warm stove in the tent to warm himself up. While smelling the faint aroma, he complained about the coalition commander and friend.

    These days, the Northern Army's always fierce offensive has been contained. Lu Su, a captain of the Zan Army, took advantage of the situation. He was spying on military intelligence and contacting the Allies. He was so busy that Zhou Yu, who was in a high position in the army, was free.  .

    Zhou Yu naturally knew that his friend was working hard. He pushed away the guqin in front of him, got up and came to the stove. He looked at Lu Su who was rubbing his hands to keep warm. He laughed, filled a glass of wine for him personally, and asked:

    "How is the enemy situation?"

    "Alas." Lu Su took the glass and took a sip, sighing faintly:

    "The enemy forces in Wulin are uncharacteristically no longer taking the initiative to attack, and actually seem to be really going to confront us to the end. On the contrary, the enemy forces in Jiujiang are ready to move and show signs of crossing the river!"

    "Zhang Liao?" Zhou Yu also poured himself a glass of wine, shook his head and smiled:

    "Although Zhang Wenyuan is a talented general, he can only show off his majesty on foot in the north of the Yangtze River. When he really reaches the river, a small man on the left of the river willObserve the situation of the cities, towns, fields, mountains and roads within the capital.

    Because most of their defeated and surrendered Cao army came from the Qingxu area, after Yan Xing quickly pacified the Central Plains, they were temporarily disorganized and dispatched to Xuzhou for reorganization. After some army reorganization and restoration of order,  Only then were they informed of their plan to send troops to attack Jiang Zuo's rear.

    From Xuzhou to Sanwu, there was originally the Zhongdu River connecting the north and the south. This river originated from the Hangou dug by Fu Chai, the overlord of the Wu State in the Spring and Autumn Period, who spent a lot of manpower and material resources. However, it is now in disrepair and the river is silted up, so it has been abandoned.

    But although it cannot transport large ships, it can transport small vessels such as oil tankers. Oil tankers are called rafts.

    Yu Jin and others, the soldiers of Cao Wei, were ordered to cross the river in a small boat to raid the capital, hoping for a military adventure in which they would attack their innermost beings with surprise troops.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
