Tai Shixiang gritted his teeth and said: "Although the king selects talents, the ministers also weigh the masters. We are not fools and loyal people. We should bear in mind the teachings of our father and find out this matter."

Taishi Ci nodded and said, "Have you ever eaten pineapple cakes since you arrived in Jianye?"

Tai Shixiang replied: "Because Sun Deng loves this food, the imperial concubines often make it, but the children dare not eat it randomly. They only ask Sun Deng to use it first before they dare to eat it."

Taishi Ci's eyes gleamed slightly and he said: "My father sneaked into Jiangdong to find out the matter thoroughly. You can find a way to bring out a piece next time."

Tai Shixiang asked in confusion: "If Sun Deng is fed ordinary food by the king, can his father taste the difference?"

"Stupid!" Taishi Ci snorted coldly: "Mr. Hua's disciple Li Dangzhi is also in the medicine shop. He is known as the King of Medicine. As long as he compares it with Gong Jin's before, he can find clues."

Taishi Xiang was overjoyed and said: "My child obeys my command."

Taishi Ci asked some more about the recent situation, and then urged: "Let's go quickly, it's not suitable to stay here for a long time!"

"Father..." After all, Tai Shixiang was still young. He was frightened when he returned to Jiangdong. He finally found a supporter and was about to leave after meeting him, which was a bit unbearable.

"You have grown up now, why are you so cowardly?" Taishi Ci said displeasedly: "When my father was your age, he went overseas alone and was not afraid. When a man is alive, he should be happy with his kindness and revenge, and do justice for heaven.

Only then will we not lose the ambition of a warrior.”

"Yes!" Taishi Xiang gritted his teeth secretly and bowed to exit.

Tai Shici added: "If there is nothing important, you don't have to come to the hospital often. I will send someone to contact you."

After Tai Shixiang left, Li Dangzhi came from next door and said: "The wise nephew of the emperor of the country has collected rare things from the South China Sea, most of which can be used as medicine. It seems that she is really proficient in medical skills."

"Oh?" Tai Shici's eyes gleamed slightly, and he said in a deep voice: "Unless you tell me, sir, I and other laymen know nothing. I heard that Marquis Wu expanded the territory of the South China Sea, and it was also Guotai's suggestion. I guess there must be something fishy in it."

Li Dangzhi sighed: "I don't know anything about the affairs of the court. If the general wants to investigate the matter in Jiangdong, he needs to choose his own confidants to help him. With only my nephew in the mansion, I'm afraid my gains will be limited."

Tai Shici nodded and said: "That's exactly what I mean! Liu Ji, the son of the late Lord Liu Yao, is deeply loved by the Marquis of Wu. He is now the magistrate of Jianye County and will definitely be able to help me."

Li Dangzhi said: "Mr. Yu Fan has gone to Lingnan to look for clues. You can tell us this news. Perhaps this strange medicine is not in the mountains and rivers, but in the deep sea."

"Deep sea?" Taishi Ci looked up into the distance and murmured, "I don't know where Gong Jin is at this time."

…

When the Huainan War was about to begin, Sun Quan personally went to Hefei to supervise the war and attacked Shouchun in three directions.

Lü Meng led the army northward, while Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin led the Fuling Lake navy to support them from the Huaihe River. They also ordered Sun Yu to attack Shouchun from Jiashi on the Lujiang River.

When the men from Jiangdong made a comeback, Zhou Yu was leading an army northward along the coast. Along the way, sentry boats followed the trails to explore the route. Although the speed was slow, the news from the fishermen was that they had already passed the Donghai County of Xuzhou.

Zhou Yu was convinced of the Yuzhou Island mentioned by Liu Qi and Pang Tong. When Liu Bei was defeated in Xuzhou, it was Mi Zhu who helped him and was able to reorganize his old troops to counterattack Lu Bu.

Yuzhou Mountain is also recorded in the Classic of Mountains and Seas. It is located in the sea east of Pengshan Mountain in Donghai County, also known as Cangwu Mountain. Xu Sheng was originally from Donghai, Xuzhou, and heard fishermen mention this place.

After two months of sailing, the weather turned cold as we headed north, and the sea breeze became biting. Zhou Yu could no longer stand on the bow of the ship for long and was checking the map in the cabin. Suddenly, soldiers came to report that Xu Sheng had returned.

Zhou Yu hurried to the bow of the ship and saw Xu Sheng, wearing a raincoat and carrying a bamboo hat on his back, boarding the boat from a small boat. He stepped forward and pulled him up personally, and asked urgently: "Wen Xiang, how is the situation?"

Xu Sheng clasped his fists and said: "Fortunately, I will pretend to be a fisherman to inquire about the news. The native of Yuzhou Island is called Cangwu Mountain. It was originally controlled by the Mi family and had more than two thousand private soldiers. After the Mi family left, this place became

It became a deserted island, but half a year later it was occupied by a group of thieves, most likely the remnants of the Yellow Turbans."

"Hmph, why should the yellow turban thief be worried?" Zhou Yu sneered and ordered: "Immediately find a guide to lead the way and kill him on the island that day."

Xu Sheng said: "The last general has brought three fishermen. They have been robbed and oppressed by thieves. They have a grudge in their hearts and are willing to be guides."

Zhou Yu praised: "Wen Xiang is really thoughtful in his work, let's go!"

Cheng Zi said: "I don't know the situation in Cangwu Mountain, let alone the number of rebels. It's better to send people to find out the reality first before sending out troops."

When he led his troops to sea this time, it was inevitable that Cao Jun would find out that Zhou Yu only took Xu Sheng to lead the troops, and the rest were Chaisang Navy, as well as some of Tai Shici's old troops left behind when he was in Yuzhang.

After Cheng Pu died of illness, Cheng Zi wanted to avenge his father. After three months of mourning, he insisted on following Zhou Yu to send troops. Zhou Yu felt his loyalty and declared that he would mourn at the grave and secretly went to sea with the ship.

Zhou Yu smiled proudly and said: "Zhang Jiao is reborn, what do you have to fear? The thieves on this island are just a mob. I expected that after more than ten years of hiding on the deserted island, I am already vulnerable. It is winter now, and the sea is filled with fog. I

With Sinan as our guide, the bandit army will definitely not be able to predict it and will just make a surprise attack."

Cheng Zi asked: "I have heard of a compass, but it has been lost long ago. Where did the governor find this thing?"

Zhou Yu said with emotion: "This is a gift from Ziyu's second brother Kong Ming. If it weren't for this, how would we dare to risk going to sea?"

Cheng Zi was shocked and said: "Wolong is actually so capable?"

Zhou Yu looked at the sea in the distance and thought of the two talking all night long and meeting bosom friends. A smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. After Sun Ce, he met Kong Ming again. How lucky is his life?

However, Zhou Yu frowned again when he thought about Sun Ce. He wondered what the current internal situation in Jiangdong was like. If Liu Qi and Zhuge Liang planned to join forces in the Central Plains in the future, how would they deal with it?

The fleet continued northward under the leadership of two fishing boats. Although there was heavy fog, the fishermen were very familiar with the surrounding area and moved forward cautiously.

When the sky gets bright and the fog gradually thins, the fishing boat stops in front, and a huge black silhouette appears in front, which is Cangwu Mountain.

Zhou Yu asked the fishing boats to stay back and divided the fleet into three parts. They moved forward from the south and moved closer to the shore. As the fog gradually dissipated, a beach appeared in front of them.

As they approached, they suddenly heard a cry of surprise from the shore. People on the island also discovered Wu Jun. The huge warship shocked everyone, thinking that a monster was coming.

The boat rushed straight to the beach, and the navy jumped down to seize the landing place. These navy troops were well-trained and knew that gaining a foothold in water warfare was the key. After getting off the boat, they moved forward bravely.

The thieves on the island haven't had any fights for several years. They live in a corner and have long since lost their ferocity. They just fish and dry their nets all day long, just like fishermen.

They never expected that one day such elite soldiers would attack. Many of them only had fishing nets, hooks and forks in their hands. When they saw the officers and soldiers coming, they didn't even know where they came from. They were all stunned.

"Soldiers, charge!" Xu Sheng roared angrily and strode over with his sword.
