Gao Shun and Ling Cao led the army to approach the river again, which was actually equivalent to taking the army across the river as hostages.

With Gao Shundu's heavy infantry in defense, it is naturally strong, and it is not so easy for the enemy to break through.

Sun Ce and Yuan Shu naturally couldn't ignore the more than 200,000 troops in the cross-river capital, so these more than 200,000 troops needed a large amount of supplies.

However, the supply can only be transported through the Yangtze River, which is a big problem, and it is not easy to transport the supply at all.

When the day was about to dawn, Huang Gai looked at some wooden planks floating on the river and wanted to cry without tears.

"I'm ashamed that my lord trusts me."

This time, a large amount of grain and grass sank into the river to feed the fish, which was difficult for him to accept.

Moreover, he led 10,000 troops, and there were only more than 4,000 people who could go ashore.

Cheng Pu rushed to hear the news early to help Huang Gai deal with the aftermath.

"Don't be sad, Jiangdong is here again, it seems that this battle is not easy to fight, we need to work together." Cheng Pu persuaded.

Huang Gai sighed deeply, and then followed Cheng Pu back to the barracks.

At this time, Du Gaoshun and Ling Cao appeared ten miles away from their military camp with a large army, but they only approached and did not attack.

After Gao Shun and the others arrived, they began to build a camp there, as if they were going to defend the capital for a long time.

In fact, it is too dangerous to set up a camp so close, and it is easy to be attacked, but Gao Shun and they are still like this.

This Sun Ce and Yuan Shu both became soldiers and horses in a backwater battle, or cut off supplies.

Can they fight like an overlord?

Of course they can, and the effect is also somewhat, but they must be able to break the heavy infantry defenses.

In fact, this camp is only for monitoring them, and it is impossible for the army to be stationed here directly, but they will build another camp twenty miles behind.

Sun Ce and Yuan Shu were in crisis.

Sun Ce and Zhou Yu were still on the other side of the river, and they didn't cross the river immediately, but they had already received the news and knew that something big had happened.

"Gong Jin, are we wrong this time?" Sun Ce looked at the river and said.

Zhou Yu didn't answer, he was also thinking about whether it was right or wrong.

But it's not their decision that's wrong, it's their bad luck.

If something really happened to Zhang Yu, according to their understanding, he should be attacked.

As a result, however, they found themselves in a dilemma.

Sun Ce will fall into such a situation, mainly because he miscalculated the situation in Jiangdong.

I thought that Koto would be in chaos.

Now they can only bite the bullet and continue.

"Bo Fu, someone on the other side must go to the other side to control the overall situation, and I will find a small boat to go over later." Zhou Yu said.

Originally, Sun Ce wanted to go over together, but Zhou Yu refused.

The Yangtze River is a chasm that divides them and makes them insurmountable.

Gao Shun and Ling Cao stabilized the battle situation, and soon the variables came.

Liu Bei's army actually attacked Zhang Yu and several of them.

These cities were originally obtained by Zhang Yu and them when they invaded Xuzhou, on the north bank of the Yangtze River, on the side of the Yangtze River estuary.

Gao Shun and Ling Cao ignored Liu Bei a little, after all, Liu Bei didn't have many soldiers and horses.

Several cities on the north bank of the Yangtze River estuary were attacked, and the city guards could not defend them, so they gave up after resisting for a few days and withdrew their troops.

The army withdrew to the opposite side with their ships, and took all the ships with them as they left the capital.

Liu Bei occupied several cities on the north bank of the Yangtze River, but he did not have ships to cross the river, so he could not attack the most important capital in Jiangdong.

At this time, Jiangdong was unable to draw up extra troops to deal with Liu Bei, so he could only let him occupy the cities in the northern capital.

It's not that those cities are not important, on the contrary, a few cities are very important, which are the bases for trade with Xuzhou and other places.

There are a lot of capital materials hoarded in it, and there are complete capital defenses.

It can be said that Liu Bei made a lot of money this time.

Liu Bei occupied several cities, and then saw that the warehouse was full of goods, and his eyes were straight.

"Big brother, this Zhang Yu is so rich, salt, good wine, and tea are all warehouses and warehouses." Zhang Fei also shouted in surprise when he saw it.

The warehouses inside are full, and for the convenience of trade, Zhang Yu and the others put the goods in these cities, and then transport them directly if necessary.

"Whew." Liu Bei exhaled and said, "If I had done it to the salt merchants in Xuzhou at the beginning, I wouldn't have been so depressed at this time. ”

At this time, Liu Bei knew how rich those salt merchants in Xuzhou were, and there was so much salt here, which meant that they didn't have to worry about running out of stock and kept selling.

After Lu Bu took Xuzhou, he listened to Chen Gongdu's words, and made a move on these salt merchants, and obtained a huge fortune, and then grasped the right to buy and sell salt in his hands.

When Lu Bu got Xuzhou, he immediately had a lot of money to use, and then recruited troops to expand his strength, and even got a lot of weapons and equipment from Zhang Yu.

Liu Bei regretted it, if he had been decisive at the beginning, he would not have been thrown away and homeless now.

But regret is useless.

"Now that I have these things and I have money, I will immediately recruit troops and strive to recruit 100,000 troops." Liu Bei regained his spirits.

When he was excited, Liu Bei began to act, he asked Zhang Fei and Guan Yu to go to the surrounding capitals to recruit soldiers and horses, and he led people to count the supplies one by one.

There are a lot of materials here, and all kinds of goods are warehouses one after another, which are all hard currency now.

Liu Bei thought that he had money and soldiers, and maybe he could take Xuzhou back.

Zhang Fei and Guan Yu also quickly went to the surrounding capitals to recruit soldiers and horses.

They had their soldiers set up several recruiting locations in the city.

"These cities are very populous, and it only takes three or five days to recruit tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, so that the brothers can be ready." After Guan Yu arrived at a city, he said to several people under him.

They each went to work immediately, and they were very familiar with recruitment, making a table, carrying some money, and someone to maintain order and register.

They were all very familiar with this, and in a few corners of the city, they began to arrange recruitment.

Although the city was occupied by Liu Bei and them, Liu Bei did not disturb the people for the sake of his own image, and soon restored order.

Recruitment began, and several recruiting points began to operate.

"Haha, I still have scruples about us, but I didn't rush to it."

The recruitment point had just opened, and no one from several points had come to apply, said a small leader in charge of recruitment.

"My lord, these people will come to enlist as long as they need food, in the past, we recruited soldiers, which time was not too busy." A soldier said.

The little leader nodded and said: "That's right, there are hundreds of thousands of people here, let go of the move, you can recruit tens of thousands of people a day, you will pay attention to me later, recruit some good." "Please pay attention to the latest chapters in the future
