Zhou Tai walked towards Cao Cao and went into battle with his own soldiers. There was already a strength gap with Zhou Tai, let alone being on the ship!
Using his sword to kill several people, Zhou Tai slowly forced himself towards Cao Cao.
Unexpectedly, the traitor smiled slyly and said, "It would be a good idea to kill Deputy General Zhou Gongjin first!"
"Come here, prepare to shoot arrows!"
Li Dian and Yue Jin, who had been lying in wait for a long time, led the archers and suddenly shot at Zhou Tai!
Fortunately, Zhou Tai was a water thief, so when he saw that the situation was not good, he jumped into the river with a single stride.
"Damn it! Thief Cao is treacherous, Gong Yi, leave quickly!"
Jiang Qin understood this and took advantage of Xu Chu's seasickness to use a flaw to avoid Hu Chi's entanglement.
Cao Cao was still frightened at this time, but fortunately Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin did not dare to pursue him!
"Withdraw! Withdraw to Wulin!"
Cao Cao took a deep breath, "Jiangdong Navy is indeed well-deserved! Order Xuchang to mobilize money and food, and ask Wulin to train the navy!"
"The crusade against Jiangdong must not be rushed. We need to take a long-term approach!"
In this encounter between the two sides, the Jiangdong navy was in overwhelming power. Cao Jun left countless corpses before he fled!
"Captain Zhou, my husband once said that you are invincible on the water."
Liu Mang witnessed Zhou Yu's military use, whether it was the control of fighter planes or the encouragement of soldiers, Zhou Gongjin was indeed a Confucian general!
Zhao Yun was filled with emotion. He also saw the clues of the Jiangdong Navy's training, which would definitely be used by the Jingzhou Navy in the future.
Water-based! Especially important!
"Young Master praises you."
Zhou Yu smiled and said: "This battle lets me know that Cao Jun is not invincible!"
"It's just a thief, why should we be afraid?"
Liu Mang yawned and said with a smile: "Captain Zhou, it would be better for Jiangdong to train more infantry."
"After all, in your Jiangnan water town, raising horses is simply a fantasy."
"Also, I would like to remind you that even if you are invincible in water warfare, you will not be able to fight Cao Jun on the Yangtze River forever!"
Zhou Yu knew in his heart that if he were on land, he might not be Cao Cao's opponent.
Let’s look at Cao Cao’s elite soldiers, who defeated the Yellow Turbans, defeated Dong Zhuo, destroyed Lu Bu, defeated Yuan Shao, and drove Wuwan away. They went through countless battles, big and small.
Looking at the soldiers in the six counties of Jiangdong, apart from attacking the water bandits and Shanyue, the only thing they could do was to fight Huang Zu.
"Friendly reminder, your Marquis Wu is not good at leading troops. He is not my father-in-law and brother-in-law!"
"By the way, the maximum number of troops you can lead is 99,000, and it can never exceed 100,000!"
"If there are more, something will happen easily!"
Liu Mang yawned and said with a smile: "Today the governor returned victorious, and I can have a good sleep!"
Marquis Wu leads the troops?
Zhou Yu smiled helplessly, "As long as I am here, I will never let Wu Hou personally lead the troops! Young master is too worried!"
Liu Mang looked at Mei Zhoulang, a hero cherishes a hero, and couldn't help but remind him: "Captain Zhou, don't be obsessed with the land of Jingbei."
Zhou Yu frowned, wondering if Liu Mang knew that he wanted to seize Xiangyang and Jiangling?
Liu Bei’s son is indeed unusual!
When you have a son, you should be like Liu Changqing!
"Haha, don't bother me, sir! The land of Jingbei has been given to me by your father, Jiangdong!"
Zhou Yu smiled and said: "Master, go back and rest early!"
Liu Mang didn't care. He left the water village with Zhao Yun. He had already seen Jiang Dong's strength.
As people who live near the Yangtze River, Jingzhou Navy will never lose to Jiangdong as long as it undergoes training and actual combat!
"The decisive battle must be on the Yangtze River!"
Zhou Yu clenched his fists tightly and looked towards the north bank of the Yangtze River, "The world is divided into two parts, governed across the river! The grand hegemony is in the palm of your hand!"
…
In the battle across the river, Cao's army was defeated.
Cao Cao thought that the soldiers would be dissatisfied with the climate, which might lead to a decline in combat effectiveness.
But he never thought that Cao Jun would decline to this extent!
On the Yangtze River, a battle with Jiangdong Army is like a bronze beating a king!
Cao Cao looked sad, and the delay did give him a chance to train his troops.
But Jiangdong can also make adequate preparations!
If the attack on Jiangdong goes unfavorably, the old men of the Han Dynasty in Xuchang may be ready to take action.
That young Majesty is restless!
"Prime Minister...Jiang Gan wants to see you!"
"Zhongkang, let him come in."
At this time, Cao Cao thought of accepting his advice, and Jiang Gan was afraid to walk into the military camp.
"Prime Minister! I have a plan to make Zhou Gongjin surrender to you!"
Jiang Gan smiled and said: "I was once an outer disciple of Shuijing Academy, and I live in the same hometown as Zhou Yunai. The two of us have always exchanged letters!"
"I am willing to risk my life and go to Jiangdong to convince Zhou Gongjin to serve the prime minister!"
Cao Cao now knows how powerful Zhou Yu is.
Perhaps on land, Cao Cao could easily control the opponent.
But if he wants to attack, the decisive battle will inevitably take place on the Yangtze River!
"Okay! Come here, give me a drink!"
Cao Cao personally handed Jiang Qian wine, "Drink this cup and wait for your return!"
Jiang Gan was moved at this time, he finally had a chance to perform!
"Prime Minister, please put down the wine. It won't be too late to drink again when I tell Zhou Gongjin!"
"Okay! I'll wait for you to come back!"
That night, Jiang Gan took a small boat and headed towards the south bank.
Zhou Yu was tired all night and after repelling Cao Cao, he heard that Zhou Tai had caught a spy.
"Just cut it off, why are you asking me?"
"Grand Governor, that man said he has an old relationship with you, what do you mean?"
"What are you doing? Zhou Youping, do you want to scold me?"
"Do it! Just do it! Jiang Gan!"
When Zhou Yu heard this, he waved his hand to signal Zhou Tai to let him go.
"This person had correspondence with me before, saying that he was working under Cao Cao. Let's first see what this person's intentions are!"
Zhou Tai took the order and brought Jiang Gan to the military camp like a chicken.
"Gong Jin! You and I are from the same family, how can we treat guests like this?"
"Youping, let him go!"
Zhou Tai let go, causing Jiang Qian to grin. The reckless man let him go at his will without giving him any chance to react.
"If you are here to express friendship as a classmate, I will certainly welcome you."
Zhou Yu pulled out the sharp blade in his hand, walked towards Jiang Qian, and said jokingly: "If you want to persuade Cao Cao to surrender, don't blame my sword for being weak!"
Jiang Gan was so frightened that he broke out in cold sweat. He waved his hands repeatedly and said, "Gong Jin! I am a classmate, why should I reject him thousands of miles away?"
Jiang Gan pretended to be angry, turned around and left.
Zhou Yu didn't stop him either. If Jiang Gan wasn't thinking about it, he would have killed him with a single sword if it wasn't for the sake of his classmates and fellow villagers.
The fundamental reason is that Jiang Gan's talents are not enough to affect the outcome of this war.
As soon as Jiang Gan walked out of the military camp, he saw a young man with sharp eyebrows and starry eyes, which made people very fond of him.
"I dare to ask, but Jiang Ziyi in Jiujiang?"
"Exactly! I wonder who you are?"
"My Excellency, Liu Mang, I have long heard that Senior Brother Ziyi is well versed in Confucian classics and was praised by Teacher Shui Jing!"
Liu Mang was so enthusiastic that he grabbed Jiang Gan's hand and said with a smile: "Brother, since you have come to Jiangdong, why don't you just have a quick meal and leave?"
Liu Mang?
Jiang Gan realized that he was Liu Bei's son, the prodigy who was rumored to have burned Baihe to death and killed General Cao Hong.
When I took a look today, my eyes were sincere and without any scheming. It was a good opportunity to get information!
