Xu Du, Prime Minister¡¯s Mansion.
When Jia Xu received the news from Yuzhang City, it was two days later, and he hurriedly came to report to Cao Cao.
"My lord, Zhou Yu tried to attack Liu Cong, but failed!" Jia Xu handed Cao Cao a piece of information.
Cao Cao took it over and took a look.
"It was two days ago, why did I only get it today?"
"My lord, my subordinates were careless. I didn't expect Zhou Yu to be so cruel. The ghost soldiers in Yuzhang City suffered heavy losses and were almost uprooted." Jia Xu looked a little painful and full of self-blame.
"The loss is so big?"
"My subordinates did not intend to let the ghost soldiers participate in Zhou Yu's assassination, but they found that the scale this time was very large. In addition to the Sky Eye, there were many Jianghu rangers, and there were thousands of light assassins. Therefore, Shi A wanted to secretly help the Sky Eye. , taking advantage of the situation to get rid of Liu Cong, his subordinates agreed. However, they did not expect that after the assassination failed, in order not to leave any clues for Liu Cong, Zhou Yu actually strangled everyone involved. Whether it was the Sky Eye, the Ghost Soldier, or Jianghu All the rangers were killed, no one was spared!"
"Zhou Yu's methods are indeed vicious!" Cao Cao was also shocked after hearing this.
These intelligence officers are difficult to train, but Zhou Yu even used his heavenly eye to destroy the ghost soldiers. This is something that ordinary people cannot do.
"Where is Liu Cong now?"
"Lu Su led five thousand soldiers to personally escort them and headed north. Judging from their route, they should pass through Sanjiangkou, go to Jiangxia, and then return to Jingzhou."
"Now Wen He thinks, is this an opportunity?"
"Pang Tong has left Xiangyang and headed for Jiangxia. He should have received the news that Liu Cong was assassinated in Yuzhang and went to greet him. It is a good opportunity to attack Nanyang at this time, but we must do it quickly!" Jia Xu thought for a moment. , "Lord, I think Zhou Yu should have a backup plan!"
"Wen He is saying that Zhou Yu hasn't given up on assassinating Liu Cong yet!"
"Yes!" Jia Xu nodded, "For the assassination in Yuzhang City, I now feel that Zhou Yu may not be targeting Liu Cong, but the ghost soldiers!"
"Oh" Cao Cao frowned.
"My lord, if you want to send troops, you should make a prompt decision!"
"Okay, you immediately send me an order for Liu Ye and Xu Huang from Yique Pass to send troops to Nanyang. At the same time, I order Xia Houyuan and Zhang Xiu to assemble their troops and prepare to go south to support Xu Huang. I want to capture Nanyang in one fell swoop, and then attack Jingzhou .¡±
"No!"
"Wenhe" Just as Jia Xu was about to leave, he was stopped by Cao Cao.
"My lord, what else can I do?"
"What do the people of Xudu think about Chen Changwen's memorial?"
"My lord, for the sake of the country and the country, has made great contributions to the south and the north, and has made great contributions. He has been conferred the title of King of Wei and has been welcomed by the public. This is what all civil and military officials say."
"What did Xun Yu say?"
"Xun Shangshu ordered there to be no discussion."
"Oh" Cao Cao waved his hand and Jia Xu left.
"Wen Ruo, can it be that our relationship as monarch and minister for so many years will really become estranged because of this matter?" Cao Cao said to himself.
Yique Pass, Cao Jun¡¯s camp.
Cao Cao¡¯s marching order quickly reached here, and Xu Huang was extremely excited. There are now 40,000 troops under his command. In the battle of Hefei, Sun Quan was defeated. He could have taken advantage of the situation to capture Jianye, but he didn't expect Liu Cong to send troops to Nanyang, forcing him to retreat.
However, before they arrived in Nanyang, they received news that Cao Ren's entire army had been wiped out and they were killed in battle.
Nanyang had been lost, so Cao Cao ordered him to gather the troops and horses near Luoyang and station them at Yique Pass.
Xu Huang felt very unhappy. Three generals, Yu Jin, Man Chong and Cao Ren, were killed in the Nanyang battle. How could he not avenge this? There is nothing to be afraid of, Liu Cong! With these generals under his command who have experienced hundreds of battles, these tens of thousands of tigers and wolves are still unable to capture Nanyang. But the lord Cao Cao refused to send troops!
Later, Liu Cong left Nanyang, leaving only Wei Yan and other unknown people. Xu Huang immediately asked for a fight. But Cao Cao's reply was still to hold on and wait for the opportunity.
During this period of time, Xu Huang was very depressed. Now, the order to send troops finally came.
The war drums of the gathered generals sounded, and soon, all the generals came to the commander's tent.
Xu Huang was sitting on it, with military advisor Liu Ye next to him.
Generals Xue Ti, Zhao Yan, Zhu Ling, Lu Zhao, Feng Kai, Zhang Hu, Cao Chun, Cao Xiu, Cao Zhen and Wang Ping divided the two sides.
"Everyone, my lord has asked me to send troops to Nanyang. Who would like to be the vanguard?"
"The last general is willing to be a pioneer!"?All the generals came out to fight.
Xu Huang looked at the generals and was very satisfied. Their morale was usable.
"Xue Ti and Cao Xiu are the left vanguards, leading 5,000 soldiers and horses to Wancheng. Zhao Yan and Zhu Ling are the right vanguards, leading 5,000 soldiers and horses to the new city. If the defense on the city is lax, the city can be captured in one go. If If you can¡¯t, just set up camp and wait for the army!¡±
"No!"
"Feng Kai is responsible for escorting the food and grass, and the rest of the generals will go out with the army!"
"No!"
Under the escort of Lu Su, Liu Cong encountered no accidents along the way. Three days later, he arrived at Sanjiangkou.
According to Sun Quan¡¯s order, Lu Su also gave Liu Cong five stern warships and a tower ship as compensation for the assassination of Yuzhang City.
Including the ten warships when he arrived, when Liu Cong left Sanjiangkou this time, he had a huge momentum, with a total of twenty warships.
??Going upstream from Sanjiangkou, you will arrive at Xiakou. Xiakou is where the Han River merges into the Yangtze River. To the west, you can reach Yizhou by waterway, and to the north, you can reach Xiangyang through the Han River and Xiangjiang River.
"The rolling Yangtze River flows eastward, and the waves wash away the heroes. Right and wrong, success or failure are all gone. The green mountains are still there, and the sunsets are red several times." Liu Cong looked at the river going east and the setting sun in the west, and unconsciously recited Yang Shen's "Lin" "Jiang Xian".
"My lord is really good at writing, his words are clear, his artistic conception is profound, no one can match him!" After hearing these words, Wang Can immediately realized the beauty of them and was full of praise. Jiang Dong and his party were so impressed by Liu Cong's poetry.
¡°It¡¯s just a sentiment, it¡¯s nothing.¡± Liu Cong smiled, his heart full of apologies. If you want to be truly talented, how can he compare to Wang Can! Plagiarizing other people's poems made him feel a little embarrassed.
"Lord, there's a situation ahead!" Huang Zhong suddenly pointed to the boat in front and said, "Signal signal ahead, let us stop the boat."
Liu Cong's fleet has ten boats at the front, forming a triangle. The walking boat is a fast boat, suitable for opening roads. Then there are ten sterns, protecting the building ship in the middle.
The navy used flag language to convey orders. Although Huang Zhong is not good at water warfare, he must be a general in Jingzhou and he still understands the flag language.
"Order to stop the ship and see what's going on ahead?"
"No!"
All the warships stopped and formed a defensive formation under the command of Huang Zhong and Liu Hu.
"Report to my lord, the Jiangdong navy appeared in front and blocked the river." A soldier on the boat at the front drove a small boat to the building to report.
"how many people?"
"There are about seventy or eighty warships of various types such as tri-wings, walking boats, fighting ships, and stern ships, with a strength of at least five thousand!"
"Five thousand?" Huang Zhong, Liu Hu, Ma Liang and others were all shocked. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
