In the water battle at the mouth of the three rivers, the Cao army and the Jiangdong army did not fight to the point of life and death, after the Jiangdong army destroyed sixty or seventy warships of the Cao army with a battle loss of nearly one to five.

In a panic and panic, Cai Mao finally admitted the fact of defeat and led the army to retreat.

"Xingba, this Cao Jun's sailor is too unbeaten, right?"

Zhou Tai, Jiang Qin, Xu Sheng, and Han Dang, as a few generals in Jiangdong, have dealt with Cai Mao and Jingzhou sailors in previous years.

For the Jingzhou Sailor, a mountain that crosses in front of the Jiangdong Sailor, everyone knows very well in their hearts how elite the Jingzhou Sailor soldiers are.

But... Looking at the ruined ship on the river in front of him.

Everyone is a little dumbfounded, these months... Did they become stronger, or did the Jingzhou Navy Division become weaker after surrendering to Cao's army... Or did they run into a bunch of fakes? Or is Cao Jun secretly planning something?

"I don't know about this... However, Cai Dejun is by no means at this level, for the sake of caution... Let's gather our troops and return to the water village! ”

Reading the meaning of the generals, Gan Ning shook his head... For a while, I couldn't figure out what Cai Mao and Zhang Yun meant.

Nearly 70 warships and tens of thousands of soldiers were damaged... Is it just to lure them into pursuit? Is it as simple as luring the enemy deeper?

With doubts in their hearts, the generals ordered the corpses of the belligerent dead soldiers to be collected... led the army back to the water village.

Deafening cheers... It lasts forever over the river.

Sixty-seven warships, tens of thousands of soldiers... For Cao Jun, these injuries are far from breaking the muscles and bones... But for the Jiangdong Army, after this battle, these Jiangdong sons were gradually broken, and for the Cao family... The fear of this behemoth.

What it means... Out of the common!

……

"Cai Mao, this is the surprise you want to give to your true appearance? An explanation to the prime minister? ”

Cao Ying, Cao Cao sat on the main seat, and his expression was gloomy.

This look is far more ugly than when Cao Cao heard the news of Xiahoudun and Cao Ren's loss of troops and generals, and it is also more frightening and terrifying.

In order to let Cai Mao train an invincible sailor across the Yangtze River for him, he Cao Cao asked for power, money for money, boat for boat, and people for people... even did not hesitate to transfer the Baizhan infantry from Qing and Xu Prefectures to Cai Mao's command, and I don't know how many objections were suppressed for this reason.

But... This month, this month's pay, this month's waiting, what he saw was... The scene when his long-awaited sailor was killed by the Jiangdong sailor with no more than 30,000 soldiers and lost his armor.

"The Prime Minister is angry! Cai Mao's capital crime! ”

Seeing Cao Cao's thunder and anger, Cai Mao naturally didn't dare to gasp more, and hurriedly kowtowed to ask for mercy.

In the past month, he has seen with his own eyes that countless bloody storms have been set off in the dark pavilion, and countless heads... It rolled down in Xiangyang City.

If Cao Cao really had murderous intentions, hundreds of clansmen from the Cai family... I am afraid that no one will be spared.

"Prime Minister, it's not for us to do our best! 100,000 sailors in Jingzhou, due to Huang Zu's defeat in Jiangdong, lost 30,000; Liu Qi guarded Jiangxia and transferred 30,000, and the rest was only 40,000... Now our army has set up ten major water villages, which are divided into 40,000 elites to defend them. Now the new recruits are still sparse and difficult to fight! As for the soldiers of Qing and Xu Erzhou, they know the nature of water..."

"Although there are far more sterns of our warships than in Jiangdong, it is difficult to command them like an arm... Hence the defeat! ”

In the middle of the ring, seeing that Cao Cao's anger was gradually subsiding, Cai Mao cast a gaze for help to the generals on the left and right, and then said in a low voice.

It seems that the eating appearance of the four great families before is indeed ugly, and after today... It is certain that some of the interests of the seven counties of Jingzhou will be ceded and some allies will be brought to the four great families!

Sensing the indifference of Cao Ying's generals, Cai Mao secretly thought in his heart.

"That's... What do you think? ”

Although Cao Cao even had the heart to kill Cai Mao in his heart, but... Whoever made his generals all proficient in foot warfare and cavalry warfare, and generals who are good at training sailors... When put together, it can't compare to Cai Mao.

After clearing the tricks, Cao Cao felt that showing too much anger might leave Cai Mao's heart, and his tone was stunned... Immediately softened.

"Dispatch 20,000 Jingzhou Navy Divisions, thinking that the front part will be in the periphery of my main village to perform formations, and you can reach the Jiangdong Water Division! Qing, Xu Erzhou and the newly recruited naval officers and soldiers, with large and small ships in the village training, can be of great use in less than a month! ”

Lowering her head, Cai Mao skimmed away the distracting thoughts in her heart and responded respectfully.

"Since you already have a plan in mind, why didn't you bring it up earlier!"

Frowning, Cao Cao paused slightly, and suddenly understood what Cai Mao was hesitating.

Jingzhou surrendered without a fight, and those arrogant soldiers and fierce generals who followed him Cao Cao to fight in the south and north did not take the soldiers and officials from Jingchu to heart, not to mention that they were transferred from foot cavalry to Cai Mao and Zhang Yun, and there was a lot of resistance in their hearts.

"This prime minister appointed you as the Governor of the Navy, which is to give you absolute trust and absolute rights! If you have any ideas, you can do them with confidence, so why worry about others? ”

Glancing at the generals on the left and right, Cao Cao's eyes gradually became a little more coercive.

"No matter how much opinion you have in mind, at this time... You have to press down on your own side! If someone forcibly comes out again, the prime minister will be severely punished by military law! ”

"No!"

Facing Cao Cao's gaze, the generals looked solemn, and they didn't dare to refute!

……

Liu Cong and Yu Ban's matter, after spending more than a month, the dark pavilion still hasn't found out the reason.

Shi Ah dealt with the matter of Xiangyang and completed Cao Cao's orders! was supposed to leave to return to Xudu, but when Shi Ah traveled to Wancheng, he suddenly stopped, and he still felt that he was going to see Meng Qiu... This little junior brother is on the side.

So Kuaima went to Nanxiang, and after learning that Zhang Yong and Meng Qiu had gone to Fangling, Shi Ah immediately turned around and went to Fangling.

Shi A's actions naturally can't be concealed from the dark lord's subordinates, but... Because Shi A had just killed people in Jingzhou, the murderous spirit was flourishing,... Even if someone voted for several sons of the Cao family, no one dared to come forward in front of Shi A at this time.

The secret pavilion sends a message, naturally there is an extraordinary way, Meng Qiu has been in the dark pavilion for so many years, there are some things... It's basically instinctive.

It didn't take much effort, and Shi Ah successfully lured Meng Qiu out of Fangling City.

"Your Excellency is a member of the Dark Chamber? I don't know what to do with bringing me out late at night! ”

In the middle of a dense forest, Meng Qiu carried a long sword at his waist, looking at a black shadow not far away with a solemn expression.

His keen intuition told him that the man in black in front of him was by no means good!

"To lure you out, I will naturally kill you! offended the eldest prince, how could you let you be so free. ”

Hearing Meng Qiu's words, Shi A, who was wearing a masked scarf, couldn't help but laugh, and his voice was hoarse... He replied with murderous intent.

"Cao Pi, still refuse to let me go!"

His eyes sank, and Meng Qiu subconsciously pulled out the long sword in his hand.

I thought this thing would come to an end, who would have thought... After this broke Xiahou Yu, Cao Pi still refused to give up.

"Don't worry! After you die today, I will kill Zhang Yong with my own hands and let him go down to accompany you!" ”

Sensing that Meng Qiu's momentum had changed, and he was not much stronger than a year ago, Shi A's eyes suddenly lit up.

He, the little junior brother, is finally... Got this step in the way.

"If you want to kill me, it depends on your Excellency's ability!"

Listening to the masked black-clothed words in front of him, Meng Qiu's murderous intent gradually rose in his heart.

Move him, you can!

But this person in the dark pavilion shouldn't... Don't mention Zhang Yong!

Even if you fight for this life today, you have to bury this person here completely!

"So... Give it a try! ”

With a chuckle, Shi Ah slowly pulled out the long sword at his waist, and the sword body was refracted by the moonlight... There was a bloody glow.

"Kill !!"

The long sword flashed, startling the falling leaves.

As the disciples of the sword god Wang Yue, and they are both powerhouses at the level of refining gods, the competition between them is naturally dangerous and abnormal.

"Ding! Bite! Bite! ”

In an instant, the two have tested each other for twenty rounds, and in terms of advantages... Naturally, Shi Ah is even better.

"It seems... The sword in your hand can't stop me! ”

For Meng Qiu's progress, Shi A is overjoyed! But obviously, at this time... Shi Ah will not lift his mask and have a long-lost scene with Meng Qiu recognizing his brother and sister.

"Who the hell are you!?"

"How could it be my master's sword move!"

Staring at the masked man in black in front of him, Meng Qiu's voice gradually became solemn.

The man's sword moves were almost identical to his.

The difference is that the masked man's sword moves in front of him are faster and heavier than his... Sharper.

"Want to know who I am? Very simple! Just beat me! ”

"Otherwise! This is the end of your life's journey! ”

With a sneer, Shi Ah was afraid that Meng Qiu would notice the clues, which caused the scene to be abrupt in the middle of the game, and he suddenly adjusted his state.

"Then it's as you wish!"

After thinking about it to no avail, Meng Qiu's eyes turned cold, and he picked up the long sword in his hand and flew away.

After setting foot in refining the gods, after Huang Zhong's order... He can be said to have benefited a lot in the past few days.

What you will... It's not just something that Wang Yue handed down in the past.

"Not bad! This trick is finally a bit interesting! ”

"It seems that you also know that you have provoked people who should not be provoked, and you are desperately trying to become stronger, so that you can have more vitality!"

Blocking Meng Qiu's attack with a sword in his hand, Shi A nodded and said a little unexpectedly.

For example, after he stepped into the refining of gods, it took several years of hard work before he got rid of Wang Yue's influence.

Unexpectedly... In just one year, Meng Qiu has transformed to this extent.

It's a pity... Meng Qiu left the Dark Pavilion!

Otherwise, his brothers and sisters will join hands and become the sharpest sword in the hands of the prime minister, clearing all obstacles in the way ahead for the prime minister.

"I'm getting stronger! It's not for these boring things! ”

"Some things, people like you who live in the dark... Yes, it will never be understood! ”

Feeling the pain coming from the tiger's mouth, Meng Qiu suddenly stopped his offensive and said in a solemn tone.

"It turns out... Have you found something worth protecting? ”

Looking at Meng Qiu's determined expression, Shi A seemed to see himself ten years ago... How similar it was when he decided to serve Cao Cao's life and death.
