Chapter 316 Storms on the Yangtze River

Lu Su was shocked after hearing this. He saw that this posture meant an all-out war.

He hurriedly walked up to Sun Quan, then stretched out his hands to dissuade him loudly: "My lord, think twice. If this happens, the alliance between Sun and Liu will be gone. How will Cao Cao deal with it once he goes south?"

Sun Quan frowned and said, "What is Cao Cao's fear? He was almost captured by me at Ruxukou. Zijing cannot stop me from doing this."

Lu Su knelt down and begged: "Lord, this is what Fu Shiren's family said. You should ask in writing or confront him in person. If you fall into the trap and destroy the alliance, it will be too late to regret..."

At this time, Lu Meng glanced at Fu Shiren, and Fu Shiren clasped his fists and said sincerely: "What I just said is absolutely true. Governor, don't be biased against me..."

"Shut up..." Lu Su turned around and shouted, directly restraining Fu Shiren from making excuses.

When Zhou Yu died, Lu Su was by his side. He absolutely did not believe that Fu Shiren poisoned him, because when he was working in the army, he poured Zhou Yu's wine himself and he was alive and well. How could the wine be poisonous?

Lu Su even suspected Zhou Shan because Zhou Yu had never taken any other medicine except painkillers. However, because Zhou Shan was dead, the matter was dropped.

Sun Quan helped Lu Su up and said sincerely: "Zijing is too kind. The so-called good people are bullied by others, and the good horses are ridden by others. You can't just tolerate it in front of Liu Bei. If Gong Jin hadn't burned Cao Ying in Wulin, how could Liu Xuande have done it?"

Occupy Jingxiang? Without us in Ruxu to contain Cao's thieves, how could Liu Xuande securely take Yizhou? Successors' favors need to be repaid, and even taking away some counties in Jingzhou is understandable..."

"Lord, this matter is really doubtful. Gong Jin has passed away. I still don't recommend being so reckless..." Lu Su was still fighting.

Sun Quan said coldly: "Lantian defrauded Heng (Lü Fan) of his property, and later published the Yangtze River Newspaper to slander my reputation in Jiangdong. I am also doing Liu Xuande's good by getting rid of this traitor."

Lu Su swallowed his saliva. When Sun Quan first saw Sun in the Yangtze River newspaper, he first cursed Cao Cao for being cunning and cunning, but later he was glad that the Yangtze River newspaper had concealed his real name.

Because there were news praising people for fleeing Jiangdong at the same time, Sun Quan acquiesced in the circulation of that issue of Yangtze River News in Jiangdong. However, it had the opposite effect. Both the people and the court focused their attention on Sun, and no one had any understanding of this issue.

The famous guy hurled wild insults, which led the few people who knew the inside story to secretly send people to collect the distributed newspapers.

Notoriety is hard to recover, and a particularly strange phenomenon occurred in Jiangdong later. On the one hand, some people taught officials that the people should be loyal to Sun Quan, but on the other hand, they used Sun as a negative example and scolded him for forgetting his ancestors and calling him a scum of the Han Dynasty.

Although Sun Quan was talking about Lantian, Lu Su knew that Sun Quan was not that superficial. He would not raise troops to avenge Zhou Yu, nor would he make elaborate plans because he hated Lantian. All of this may be because of Jingzhou. After all, Jingzhou is empty now.

The opportunity is too rare.

Lu Su saw that he could not stop Sun Quan, so he could only follow him and act accordingly.

The next day, Jiangdong's warships sailed up the Yangtze River. Their mighty posture was even more spectacular than the one commanded by Zhou Yu.

The fleet sailed near Chibi, and Sun Quan went to the old camp to express condolences to Zhou Yu, and there he gave an impassioned morale boost.

Such a large fleet was extremely eye-catching and was quickly discovered by Su Fei's patrol boat on the Yangtze River.

Su Fei knew that something must be wrong. The whereabouts of tens of thousands of people's fleet from Jiangdong were unknown. While he sent people to Jiangling to report the news to Guan Yu, he also dispatched warships to go down the river to monitor the movements. He also sent people to Changsha, Guiyang, and especially Quan

Early warning at Ganning in the mausoleum.

There were more than a hundred public security warships and only three to four thousand naval troops. Fortunately, they got the information in time and rushed to the mouth of Dongting Lake in advance to station themselves. Because this is the only way to enter the Xiangjiang River, there is an archery tower beside the lake.

Defense facilities such as watchtowers were rebuilt on the basis of Guan Yu's earliest water fortress training for naval forces.

After Sun Quan gave a speech at Chibi, he took advantage of the opportunity and sailed to the west of the Yangtze River. He was surprised when he saw that Dongting was fortified.

"General Fu, didn't you say that apart from the police, there are no defenses along the Yangtze River? Why is there a Jingzhou navy at the mouth of Dongting Lake?" Sun Quan called Fu Shiren to the deck of the high-rise ship "Feiyun" to ask questions.

Fu Shiren's face looked innocent, like a primary school student who made a mistake.

"My lord, I don't know how humble my position is. I sent someone to Changsha last month. At that time, there were no troops stationed at Shuikou of Dongting."

Seeing this, Lu Meng said: "My lord, Gongji (Ling Tong)'s vanguard fleet is not here, which means that these warships arrived later. I see that there are only more than a hundred warships in the water village, and they cannot stop our thousands of warships.

You can just crush the ship directly."

Sun Quan nodded, he was rarely rich when fighting with Cao Cao. Now the balance of forces is very different. In short, the advantage this time is mine.

"Fortunately, I sent Gongji (Ling Tong) to advance to the Xiangshui River. Otherwise, these people would have tipped me off. Run over me now, and I can finally avenge Gongjin."

Sun Quan gave the order, and three tower ships took the lead, with fighting ships on the left and right guarding them, and countless sailboats behind them. The race with thousands of sails was very grand.

When Su Fei saw that the other side was not declaring war, he was so nervous that sweat oozed from his palms. Now the disparity in strength was more than ten times, and there was no possibility of holding on. He hoped that General Guan's main force would arrive soon.

Jiangdong's warship sailed upstream to a wind outlet in the Yangtze River. Suddenly, there was a strong wind on the river. The powerful storm caused huge waves. Su Fei's warship had been anchored in the water village and was shaken up and down by the wind and waves.

"Lord, there is a big storm suddenly on the Yangtze River. It is better for us to dock and anchor first, and then march forward after the storm calms down." Jiang Qin shouted from the boat in front.

"What?" Sun Quan was condescending, and the strong wind almost knocked him down, so he was hurriedly pulled into the cabin.

"Lord, don't worry, strong winds are normal on the Yangtze River, not to mention that your boat is very stable in flying clouds." Lu Meng quickly comforted him.

Sun Quan nodded, and suddenly he stumbled, and everyone in the cabin fell to the ground. The wind and waves came quickly and violently, and then the ship suddenly turned its rudder, and then the sail was blown by the wind to the south bank of the Yangtze River.

Lu Meng felt that Feiyun was walking back. He rushed to the deck with a skeptical attitude, then grabbed the handle and looked behind him. He saw that the three building ships in the front were no longer visible, and all the ships were moving forward with their sails raised.

Fallback.

The storm just now was so severe that the three leading building ships were thrown directly into the Yangtze River because their center of gravity was too high. Thousands of soldiers on board were killed or wounded. Those who survived were instantly transformed into fish and shrimps. They are good at water.

They were swimming hard to the shore, and if they were lucky, they picked up a piece of wood and let it drift in the wind and waves.

Before the battle was over, they were beaten in the face by a storm, and more than 2,000 men were lost before the battle began, as well as three expensive ships.

Sun Quan sat on the bank without saying a word, looking as if someone owed him money and would not pay back. Sun Quan was worried that there would be a big storm on the Yangtze River, so he ordered to temporarily station on the bank until the weather was clear before continuing to march to Dongting.

Su Fei breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this scene. He sincerely thanked the sky for delaying Jingzhou's time. Sun Quan was blown back thirty miles by the strong wind.
