The two ships were getting closer and closer, and were less than thirty steps apart. They could clearly see the people on the opposite ship. Liu Jing could clearly see Zhang Yun's ugly face, staring at him with a ferocious smile on his face, like a wild beast.

Coveting the prey that has been obtained.

"Liu Jing, you never imagined that today would happen!" Zhang Yun laughed on the opposite boat.

Liu Jing was unusually calm. She turned around and ordered: "Don't worry, everyone. The Jingzhou Navy is not the Jiangdong Army and will not kill each other. Everyone listens to my command!"

He then raised his voice and said calmly: "I can tell you Jiang Xia's conditions. There are three conditions in total. If you agree, I can give up Jiang Xia."

Liu Jing's voice was not very clear in the wind, but his words were very important. Zhang Yun frowned and ordered to the left and right: "Come closer!"

The big boat rocked slowly and Liu Jing's boat got closer. The two big boats were less than twenty steps apart.

A military commander nearby noticed that a row of burly sergeants had stood out from the side of the other side's ship. He felt a little bad and quickly reminded him: "Captain, the other side has sent more troops. Be careful, it's a deception."

Zhang Yun also discovered the changes in the troops on Liu Jing's ship, and suddenly realized that Liu Jing's only way to escape the encirclement was to attack the main ship, and he really couldn't get too close.

He quickly ordered: "Leave immediately!"

Liu Jing saw that the other party was trying to leave, so he shouted, "Do it!"

Dozens of burly soldiers picked up the clay pots at their feet and threw them at the opponent's ship. Zhang Yun saw a dark object flying towards him, and he was so frightened that he crouched down quickly.

'Bang! Bang!' Dozens of clay pots shattered on the deck and hull, and the light yellow liquid flowed all over the deck. At this moment, more than a dozen rockets roared in, igniting the kerosene, which immediately

Burning rapidly, the fire instantly engulfed the deck. Zhang Yun and his men suddenly panicked, and many people jumped into the river in a hurry.

Liu Jing was well prepared. When he gave the order, he drew out his bow and arrow, and aimed at the flag bearer on the mast. The string was loosened, and a wolf-tooth arrow shot out with great force.

The flagman screamed and fell heavily from the mast.

Taking advantage of the panic of the enemy's main ship, Liu Jing immediately ordered: "Go forward at full speed and rush through the interception!"

Five large ships lined up to break through to the northwest. The Jingzhou navy was in chaos. The fire on the main ship burned rapidly and the sails were also ignited. The entire ship turned into a fire ship. The fire engulfed the mast. The soldiers jumped into the water one after another. Some of them were too late.

The soldiers who jumped into the water cried and howled on the boat and died tragically in the fire.

Zhang Yun jumped into the water in time and escaped with his life. He swam hard to another large ship. At this time, the soldiers behind him shouted, "Captain, be careful!"

Zhang Yun turned around and was immediately frightened out of his mind. The ship began to tilt, and the flaming mast broke and hit him like a mountain.

In desperation, Zhang Yun suddenly sank, and with a loud bang, the mast hit the water heavily, causing waves. The ship sank, and a huge vortex rolled up, dragging more than a dozen soldiers into the river.

end.

A sudden fire broke out on the main ship, which frightened the surrounding warships. They did not dare to approach Liu Jing's ship. They thought of the defeat of Jiangdong's army, which they heard was defeated by fire.

Liu Jing's prestige in defeating the Jiangdong Army gave the Jingzhou Navy a huge shock. In addition, Zhang Yun did not issue a battle flag order. The Jingzhou Navy did not dare to act rashly and watched five warships pass between the two fleets.

drive by.

When Zhang Yun boarded another large ship, he discovered that Liu Jing's fleet had broken through the siege of Jingzhou navy and sailed far to the northwest, turning into five small black spots.

"They are all a bunch of idiots, bastards!" Zhang Yun yelled angrily.

In Xudu, it was dark at night. A figure was walking hurriedly on the street corner. He soon came to a large house and walked up the steps. The dead energy lantern under the door of the mansion gave off a dim light, illuminating his face. This person was a soldier.

The defeated Huang She.

When Jiangxia was defeated, Huang She did not flee to Nanjun or Xiangyang. He had long been disillusioned with Jingzhou, and Jiangdong was even more unable to go. After careful consideration, he fled to Xudu.

He took a look at the house number, which read "Guomingtinghou Mansion". This was the residence of Cao Hong. Cao Hong had served as the prefect of Runan two years ago, and the Huang family and his son had dealt with him at that time.

Huang She also knew that Cao Hong would accept bribes, so he specifically asked Cao Hong for help in introducing him. He had come here once two days ago, and today was the second time he came. However, it was Cao Hong who sent someone to find him, which made him nervous again.

Expectation again.

Huang She bowed his hands to the concierge and said, "Please tell Duke Cao that Huang She wants to see you!"

The concierge went in, and after a while a housekeeper came out and said with a smile: "Master Huang, please come! My general is waiting in the study."

Huang She followed the housekeeper into the house and came to Cao Hong's study. The housekeeper reported, "General, Mr. Huang is here."

"Come in!"

Cao Hong's voice came from the room. The voice was powerful. Huang shot into the study. The room was brightly lit. He saw that Cao Hong was about thirty years old. He was powerful and strong. He was wearing a wide linen suit and a turban.

, holding a book in his hand. Although he is a famous general in Cao's army, he is also skilled in both civil and military skills.

Huang She hurriedly stepped forward to salute and bowed to the ground, "See Mr. Cao!"

"Don't call me Mr. Cao."

Cao Hong waved his hand. He didn't like this title. It was disrespectful to his brother.

Huang She hurriedly changed his words, "See General Cao!"

"Please take a seat!"

Huang She sat down uneasily and was about to speak when Cao Hong smiled and said: "I have met the Prime Minister today and told him about you. The Prime Minister is very interested and asked me to take you to see him tomorrow morning."

Huang She was overjoyed and bowed quickly, "Thank you General Cao for your strong recommendation."

Cao Hong narrowed his eyes and smiled, "You're welcome, we still have some friendship!"

Huang She understood what Cao Hong meant, and quickly took out a pair of white jade from his arms, placed it on the small table, and pushed it to Cao Hong, "This is a little thought from this junior, please accept it, general."

Cao Hong's eyes were very poisonous. When he saw that the white jade was crystal clear and smooth without any flaws, it was a very precious thing. He smiled in his heart and said that Huang Zu had hidden the treasure. It was indeed good. He immediately said gently: "Don't worry, I will try my best to help you."

With kind words, you will definitely get a job in Xudu."

"Thank you, General. I wonder what I need to pay attention to when I meet the Prime Minister tomorrow?"

"It's okay. The etiquette is enough. If the Prime Minister asks anything, you just answer it truthfully. But let me warn you first. The Prime Minister is not easy to lie. If you lie, you will bring it upon yourself."

"Junior understands!"

Huang She and Cao Hong talked for a few more words before saying goodbye and leaving Cao Hong's mansion. Huang She was so excited that he couldn't calm down. He walked to the Xuchang River and stared at the river water that had a thin layer of ice for a long time.

The reason why Huang She gave up Jingzhou and turned to Cao Cao was because he knew that Cao Cao's army would go south sooner or later. When Cao Cao conquered Jiangxia, he would definitely let someone familiar with Jiangxia serve as the governor of Jiangxia. If he was valued by Cao Cao, then the governor of Jiangxia would be

He belongs to none other than him.

At this moment, Huang She was full of expectations for the future. He seemed to have seen the scene of the glorious return home. He seemed to have seen Liu Jing being tied up and kneeling in front of him, and being handled by him personally. Thinking that Liu Jing would get Tao Zhan, Huang

His heart felt like blood dripping from his heart, and his teeth slowly clenched.

It had only been half a month since Cao Cao returned to Xudu, and the Hebei War was in full swing. After Yuan Shao's death, his eldest son Yuan Tan and his third son Yuan Shang fought for the right to inherit.

Yuan Tan was besieged by Yuan Shang's army in the plains. He was besieged internally and externally. He was forced to send Xinbi to ask for help from Cao Cao. Cao Cao took the opportunity to advance and marched to Liyang in October. Yuan Shang was forced to withdraw his troops. Yuan Tan then surrendered to Cao Cao. Cao Cao hired Yuan as his son.

Tan's daughter became his wife, and the class teacher returned to Xudu.

In the room, Cao Cao was discussing with his counselor Guo Jia to pacify Hebei. Guo Jia was about thirty years old. He had a handsome appearance, a sharp gaze, elegant and handsome, and was outstanding. However, his body was a little thin. In the dark, you would find that he had a hidden secret.

Sick.

Guo Jia was one of Cao Cao's four most trusted advisers. He served as military advisor and was highly regarded by Cao Cao. Usually when he talked to Cao Cao, Cao Cao would listen, but today Guo Jia found that Cao Cao seemed a little uneasy. Several times

He lost his mind when talking about Yuan Shang.

"What are you thinking about, my lord?" Guo Jia stopped talking and asked with a smile.

Cao Cao was shocked and realized that he was a little rude. He smiled apologetically and said, "I was thinking about Jingzhou. I would like to ask you to continue talking."

Guo Jia knew Cao Cao very well. He knew that his lord's heart was no longer in Hebei, and it would be in vain to talk more. He changed the subject and said with a smile: "Then let's talk about Jingzhou."

This sentence refreshed Cao Cao's spirits, and he laughed and said: "Know me as a filial piety!"

It's not that Cao Cao doesn't care about Hebei, it's just that he just returned from Hebei and the situation in Hebei is already under his control. It's like knowing the ending of a story, and his interest in the story has faded a bit.

On the contrary, he received a detailed report on the Jiangxia War two days ago, which immediately aroused his strong interest, especially Liu Jing's outstanding performance, which made him amazed.

Guo Jia smiled slightly and said, "My lord has been mentioning Liu Jing to people these past two days. He is quite impressed. He seems to have a love for talents again."
