On July 22, the sky in Hankow was cloudy with light rain.

Guan Ping wore a cloak to inspect his seven-tooth flagship, and Chen Lei, the former governor of the sailor, was in front of him, with a proud and boastful face.

This is the second Qiya flagship of the Han Army, the first is Guan Yu's flagship, and now it is transferred by Guan Yu to Fubo General Zhao Lei, this flagship is newly built by the Hanjin battalion, and it is supervised by Chen Lei.

Chen Lei focused on the characteristics of this flagship, which is equipped with a larger bed crossbow, and the crossbow arrows used are like short spears, and the front of the rod is drilled with fine holes.

Guan Ping didn't understand these fine eyeholes densely covered behind the arrow clusters, and Chen Lei explained: "After the hole is drilled, it is ignited and launched, and the fire source is in the arrow, which can be extinguished suddenly. The fire is extinguished and smoke is born, and this smoke can poison people's eyes, mouth, nose, and lungs. ”

Also inspecting the flagship was Luo Meng, the rear governor of the sailor, who was curious to pick up a big crossbow arrow and examine it carefully, his brows furrowed slightly, and he could already figure out the purpose of this arrow.

It is an arrow used to set fire, and the arrow cluster and the surrounding eyeholes will be burned before use, and it is difficult to extinguish the arrow flame during shooting and flying. When the flame is extinguished, the poison in the remaining holes will produce some poisonous smoke, and the holes will be finely shattered, and this poisonous smoke is really small.

The flagship can be equipped with this special rocket for fire attack...... How can there be a ridiculous meaning of jade burning.

By the time the enemy ships get closer and the flagship needs to attack with rockets, then everything is over.

Romon casually put the drilled rocket in his hand into the quiver box, without any reaction; Guan Ping only felt heavy when he held the special rocket, and looked at Chen Lei with a gloomy look.

Chen Lei was a little uncomfortable, laughed stupidly, and turned his head to care.

Xiakou, across the river, has been reoccupied by the Wu army.

Due to the rainfall, the river surface was muddy, and the view was blocked, and there was no outline of the north bank.

He Qi inspected the barracks, looked north by the river, and sighed for a long time: "Ding Feng is in a dilemma. ”

The relatives followed behind, most of them looking to the north, or turning their heads to the east to feel the oncoming wet east wind, their faces and expressions were different.

Ding Feng lacks the necessary value of rebellion, doesn't he have it himself?

He has an army of 40,000 in his hands...... Even if the combat strength is a little worse, it can be worth 10,000 Han troops, and there are more than 70,000 Tuhan people under his command, according to the Jingzhou household division law, how can there be 100,000 households after the division.

According to the rules of Tian Xin's promotion of the tortuous calculation of food yip, he will surrender to the Han himself, and he should also get 10,000 food eups!

Coupled with Tian Xin's call to be demoted, and the strategic changes caused by himself...... I don't ask for much, but I want to marry the Guan family in addition to the 10,000 food estates to ensure a long-term future.

However, Guan Ping, who was in charge of the Jiangxia War, did not abide by the relevant policies promoted by Liu Bei and Tian Xin, and the favor of the generals became empty words.

Compared with the choice of Ding Feng and surrendering to Han himself, Guan Ping and Ma Chao seem to want to cut off Ding Feng and their own heads.

They want blood-stained feats, not simple land extensions.

Ding Bong was despised, and he was also despised...... In this case, even if you surrender to Han, you will not get good treatment.

struggled all his life, repeatedly got out of Sun Quan's hands, and saved a great foundation...... Is it just handed over to the Han army for nothing?

Not to mention the resentment in his heart, He Qi observed the situation of the party left and right, and all of them did not have a good face.

They are all fighting all the way to the position, if they are demoted, their status is still unstable, and their future is even more uncertain.

If you can't get an accurate reply and guarantee from the Han army, who would dare to force these more than 30,000 or nearly 40,000 people to surrender to Han?

It's a big deal not to want Wuchang to be a muddy land, everyone scattered and returned to the deep mountains and old forests, and it was also very happy to be a chief of hundreds or thousands of people, why bother to see the face of the Han army?

But the world will be decided, and the deep mountains and old forests are by no means a good destination.

The east wind blew on his back, the bright green cloak was clinging to his body, and He Qi's side head attracted everyone's attention: "Pan Zhang's new breakthrough Peng Yi, Wu Jun has arrived at Chaisangkou, and in three or five days, he will be able to sail west to Laishan and re-establish the camp." Now the east and the west are fighting, if they are in battle, they will be despised by the Han army, which is not my wish. ”

He glanced over and saw that there was no objection from the crowd.

Surrender is also divided into ways and occasions, when Sun Quan and Guan Ping fought a decisive battle, their own rebellion can certainly play a shocking effect, but in this way Guan Ping will win very easily, Guan Ping and his Han generals will inevitably have a contemptuous heart, which is not conducive to long-term development.

If you want to change to the Han army, you should use the way of the Han army to do things, and Sun Quan wants to fight the ...... Let's fight!

He Qi's face was covered with age spots, but his eyes were bright, and he didn't like what Sun Quan did.

His eyes fell on the face of his second son, He Jing: "Go to Hankou and take my letter to Guan Ping." If he treats each other politely, he is willing to come to Xiakou for a while, and I will raise my troops to return to Han. If he despises our army, he shall not clash with words, and shall retreat himself, and our army shall make plans again. ”

The eldest son, He Da, came out and hugged his fists: "Father, the river is very stormy, can you delay it for half a day?" ”

"How can this matter of life and death of 30,000 soldiers be postponed?"

He Qi squinted, and saw that several grandsons came forward to ask for their lives, but they were also vetoed by him, and sending the second son to negotiate was already his greatest sincerity.

He Qi did not have a warship in his hands, and more than a dozen clippers set sail and took advantage of the east wind to shore the shore and head north.

He also returned to the shelter under the canopy, and after sitting down, his legs were trembling in pain due to joint rheumatism, but his face did not change, and he waited quietly with his eyes closed, and he couldn't help but recall his life...... In general, he did not live in vain, but regretted that Sun Ce was assassinated.

Otherwise, Jiangdong Erlang competes for the Central Plains, how enjoyable!

The He family was originally the Qing family, and Uncle He Qi served as a servant and a county guard in Jiangxia; Because of avoidance, the Qing family was changed to the He family; He Qi's father served as the chief of Yongning.

When he was young, He Qi was a county official, and was promoted by Sun Ce, promoted to filial piety, and served as the governor of Yongning, and then began to crusade against Shanyue in the south of Huiji County, won consecutive battles, established the county, and was appointed by Sun Ce as the governor of the southern part of Huiji.

Around the battle of Chibi in the thirteenth year of Jian'an, He Qi used Zhonglang to ask Shanyue to establish a miracle again, and created Xindu County, He Qi served as the county guard, and there were more than 20,000 Shanyue elite soldiers under He Qi's command at that time.

Only in terms of combat exploits and beheading data, He Qi is now the first in Jiangdong.

If you simply calculate the battlefield beheading data, He Qi is still higher than Zhang Fei and Ma Chao.

After Cao Cao's death, Tian Xin had the highest beheading data in the world, with about 250,000 captives before and after; Tian Xin participated in the battle and won, and the total number of defeated enemy troops and the number of people in each battle was about 600,000.

There were many overlapping forces in these 600,000 miles, among which the Wei army had the most overlap, and the Wu army was generally defeated and destroyed after colliding with Tian Xin, and it was rare to be able to preserve the establishment and retreat like the Wei army.

It can't be compared with Tian Xin, the Han army, under the leadership of Tian Xin, can often destroy the fortified and positional battles, and directly fight a war of annihilation, so that the defenders have nowhere to escape.

And He Qi's beheading data is at least 70,000, which is already a record that is proud of Jiangdong.

He Qi, the Marquis of Shanyin of Great Wu, endured the discomfort and said in a serious and slightly trembling accent: "The world will be undecided, and you must not be deceived by rappers." Tian Gong is powerful in the world, Guan Ping is willing to live under him, he is unwilling to leave and right, and has the heart to fight. If they want to swallow us, but they can't, they will send a debater to lobby, and they must not be shaken. ”

Everyone listened, this is related to whether they will go home to be rich peasants or low-level military nobles of the New Han Empire after the Han army dominates the world.

And then there are low-level military nobles, and they are also nobles.

He Qi coughed dryly twice, and said: "Sun Quan has been perverse for a long time, and I expect Pan Jun to raise troops and Huai, which has the intention of colluding with Liu Feng." If Guan Ping does not accept us today, it can be seen that the narrow-mindedness and impurity of the instrument will be defeated sooner or later. Our army is stationed in Wuchang and Xiakou and does not move, Sun Quan is afraid of the strong and bullying the weak, and the Han army has not retreated, so he will not dare to violate our borders. ”

"Wait for the time, Tian Gong will ask for peace and return to Guangbei, and we will send someone to hand over Tian Gong to seek a way out."

Seeing that what he said was a little far away, He Da spoke: "Father, if Sun Quan breaks through the level, he will definitely raise a new army of victories to suppress me with momentum." What's more, Tian Gong is in suspicion, how can he serve us? ”

"You know what?"

He Qi squinted at his son, and his tone was as tough as ever: "If I am twenty years younger, I am willing to ride alone with Tian Gong to go around the world." If Tian Gong comes, I am willing to attach the clan to achieve great things! ”

"Gentlemen, do you have any objections?"

Choose between following Liu Bei and following Tian Xin...... Too many people will choose Tian Xin.

It's not that Liu Bei is bad, but it's too hard to follow Liu Bei, and Liu Bei is still old; Following Tian Xin, a lost dog can show off his might to be Jiang Du Yin, let alone others.
