PS: The end of the month is coming, and the autumn breeze urgently asks for a monthly pass~ a newcomer, and I urgently need encouragement~

"Really"

Gan Ning couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva, and there was a hint of incredulity in his eyes: "Are there really these places?" ”

Liu Bei put his hands behind his back, raised his head with his chest straight, and said confidently: "Of course!" Like this Taiwan, I Liu Bei dare to guarantee that it exists, as long as there is a long-distance warship, it will arrive in an instant. ”

"How!? Interested? Liu Bei said tentatively again.

Gan Ning and Tai Shici's eyes clearly sparkled, for a general, there is nothing more interesting than expanding the territory, especially the pleasure of "discovering a new continent", which is even more fascinating.

Liu Bei let out a long sigh: "Take a long-term view, just Huaxia Shenzhou is the whole world?" How is this possible!! He is only a small part of this world, less than one in ten, very small.

I really hope that the two of you can help me build a ship and go to sea and conquer everything. Seeing the vastness of the sea, seeing the world outside of Huaxia Shenzhou, life is so short, we can't decide its length, but we can live a chic life, so as not to live in vain. ”

Gan Ning and Tai Shici looked at Liu Bei in front of them, and seemed to have a feeling of extreme admiration.

A chic life? Or live in vain?

Hardly anyone hesitates to ask a multiple-choice question like this.

Liu Bei didn't explicitly solicit it, but the meaning of the solicitation can be understood by fools.

"I know that the Jiangdong Sun Clan is kind to the two of you, so I will avoid the two of you from confronting the Sun Clan head-on, but this voyage is not for the two of you. I'm not afraid of the jokes of the two of you, this group of people under my command is basically all from the north, so they can ride horses and shoot arrows, but it is even more difficult to sail by boat, especially when fighting on the river, they can't even stand on their feet. ”

Liu Bei's tone was very flat, without the attitude of a winner, and he planned a blueprint for the future for the two of them. What's more important is that Liu Bei took into account his own difficulties for them, Gan Ning and Tai Shici are not fools, they can feel Liu Bei's sincerity.

Gan Ning and Tai Shici looked at each other, and then glanced at the world map on the side. finally made up his mind and said: "Gan Ning (Tai Shici) swears allegiance to the lord to the death. ”

Liu Bei was overjoyed: "What I want is your words." Follow me! ”

Returning to the desk and sitting down, Liu Bei motioned for the two to sit down, and said: "There is no shortage of people in Jiangdong who can build ships, but there are almost no people who can build giant warships, and we need to start all over again." I have gathered all the skilled craftsmen in the entire city of Chaisang, and in the near future I will come from Jingzhou, this person is proficient in all kinds of mechanical arts, and has a high attainment in this area, I believe that with a little research and many tests, a giant warship can be built.

The two of you are proficient in all kinds of water warfare, and you are even more familiar with warships, and I need you two to provide some help to this one, this is one of them; Second, it is dangerous to go to sea. I need a thousand men of a hundred battles, elite soldiers suitable for fighting on the sea, and this force needs to be selected and trained by you, and I will never ask about it. As for the issue of food and salary, it comes directly from the General's Mansion, and you are also directly under the command of the General's Mansion, what is it? ”

Originally, Gan Ning and Tai Shici were still a little suspicious of going to sea, but when they heard Liu Bei's gushing speech, it was obvious that he had already had this idea. On the other hand, it also shows that this matter is true.

Gan Ning is very excited, he has lived for decades, and he has never been so excited as he is today: "A certain will live up to the high expectations of the lord." ”

Tai Shici also hugged his fists and said: "The last general will go all out." ”

In fact, during the Eastern Han Dynasty. Navigation technology is already very developed, some giant warships are more than 50 meters long, and North Korea, Japan and other places have long established diplomatic relations with the Han Dynasty, but this information is relatively limited, so that ordinary people do not know that there is such a thing.

"Oh, yes." Liu Bei suddenly thought of something. Dao: "Ziyi! The news of your defection to me will soon be known to others, and your family is all in Qu'a, so it is better to go home and bring your family to Chaisang, this matter is not in a hurry. ”

Tai Shi Ci nodded heavily and agreed, his eyes full of gratitude.

*********

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, the rest of the moon flows away in a hurry.

During this time, there was continuous good news, Zhang He led the army all the way south, like a bamboo, almost occupied the entire Yuzhang, Chen to the same speed, has attacked Shangrao County, it is estimated that there will be three or five days to take the entire Poyang County.

After hearing that Chaisang Zhou Yu was defeated by Liu Bei, Chen Deng rushed to Jingzhou to recommend more than ten handsome men, these people are quite talented in internal affairs, which alleviated Liu Bei's talent crisis to a certain extent.

Kong Ming and Ma Liang's Tuntian policy was carried out in an orderly manner, which stabilized the livelihood problems of Yuzhang and Poyang counties in an extreme period of time, coupled with the infiltration of the Mizhu Chamber of Commerce, which led to the economic development of the two counties, and suddenly made the two counties of Yuzhang and Poyang more prosperous than when Sun Quan was in power, not only benefiting the people, but also benefiting the officials, which can be described as a mutually beneficial and win-win policy.

On this day, Liu Bei was dealing with relevant government affairs, and Ding Asan led Wei Yan into the palace.

Wei Yan was unkempt and panting, and without asking, Liu Bei guessed the meaning of his coming.

"How is Childe now!?" Liu Bei stood up from the futon and turned into the hall.

Wei Yanchang sighed, clenched his fists and said, "Uncle Huang! Zhou Yu designed a sneak attack on the army, and Gongzi and Cai Mao retreated to Guangji to prepare to defend Guangji. Uncle Huang! Let's send troops! If it's any longer, I'm afraid Childe will die. ”

Liu Bei comforted: "Don't worry, I will definitely rescue Gongzi, but Zhou Yu and Lu Su are scheming, and they still need to be carefully considered at this time." ”

"Ah San!" Liu Bei greeted.

"Master." Ah San arched his hand.

"Send someone to call Gao Feng back for me, this matter is urgent!" Liu Bei ordered: "Order Guan Yu and Zhao Yun to recruit troops and buy horses, Zhang Fei hurry up to train the troops, do a good job of first-level alert, and be ready to set off at any time." ”

"No." Ah San answered, and then turned to leave.

"Wen Chang, tell me, what's going on? Zhou Yu's army is only 10,000, and Xunyang City is just a small city, how could he be so defeated? ”

Liu Bei looked puzzled and wanted to study it carefully.

Wei Yan then carefully described some of the things that happened in Xunyang, and described them in detail, the reason for which was just because of infighting, and Zhou Yu seized this point to defeat the Jingzhou army with a very small chance.

"Where's Gennao!?"

Liu Bei said anxiously.

"Yuan Zhi and Gongzi are together, if it weren't for Yuan Zhi's clever plan, it is likely that Gongzi would have died in Xunyang."

From Wei Yan's words, it is obvious that Xu Shu has become an indispensable figure in Liu Qi's army.

Liu Bei secretly breathed a sigh of relief: "There is Yuan Zhi, and the son is worry-free." ”

Less, high maple to.

"My lord! Are you looking for me? ”

Gao Feng hugged his fists.

Liu Bei waved his hand and signaled Gao Feng not to be polite: "To make a long story short, the son Liu Qi was defeated by Zhou Yu, and he is retreating to Guangji at this time, you can lead the troops and horses of the headquarters to support, and I will lead the army to arrive later." ”

Gao Feng frowned, knowing the seriousness of this matter, he promised to turn around and leave.

"High school captain and slow!"

Wei Yan waved his hand, stood up from the futon, and faced Liu Bei with a deep salute: "Uncle Huang!" Can the general be allowed to pass with the lieutenant? ”

"Wen Chang is really a loyal minister!"

Liu Bei's eyes lit up, he liked Wei Yan more and more, got up and came to Wei Yan, and stared intently: "Gao Feng, I'll leave it to you!" If half a hair is missing, I'll just ask! ”

"Don't worry, my lord!" Gao Feng clenched his fists in response.

Wei Yan saluted again: "Thank you Uncle Huang for your success, don't thank you for your great kindness, if you have a place to get the last general in the future, even if Uncle Huang says it bluntly, Yan has nothing to disobey!" ”

After that, he nodded heavily: "The last general will leave here!" ”

The cloak was flicked, and he didn't even bother to wash his face, so he left in a hurry.

*********

Above the head of Guangji County, Gongzi Liu Qi took a look, and the army of Eastern Wu under the city was waiting for him, and it was majestic.

Guangji County is a small county, the city wall is made of rammed earth, the wall is not more than three zhang high, the wall thickness is only one and a half zhang, it is really a vulnerable city.

There are still more than 10,000 troops in the city, but the morale is low, and there is a lack of equipment to defend the city.

After Sun Yi was defeated in Chaisang, he knew that his military strength was not good, no matter what, he finally recognized Zhou Yu's strength, and returned part of his strength to Zhou Yu, Zhou Yu and Lu Su Qianchuan designed, and finally defeated the sons Liu Qi and Cai Mao, which can be regarded as further consolidating their position.

Now under the city of Guangji, there are 6,000 elite soldiers of Eastern Wu, who scold and fight against each other, but the son Liu Qi is just hanging the free battle card, and the deep ditch and high base are based on it.

At this time, Liu Qi was very conflicted in his heart, on the one hand, he was afraid that Zhou Yu would lead the army to break through Guangji County, so he ordered Wei Yan to ask Chaisang for help; On the other hand, he was afraid that Liu Bei would lead a large army to come to the rescue, because Xu Shu told him that Zhou Yu at this time had no intention of attacking Guangji, that was to encircle the point and send reinforcements, and his target was Liu Bei.

The cold wind fluttered the bun of the son Liu Qi, dancing in the air.

He was melancholy.

"Don't worry, childe!"

Xu Shu arched his hand and said with relief: "Even if Zhou Yu surrounds the point to help, my lord will find a way to crack it." ”

"Crack!?" Gongzi Liu Qi laughed contemptuously: "This is really difficult, if Uncle Huang can really crack it, I feel better in my heart, if I fall for Zhou Yu's strategy"

Liu Qi didn't continue to speak, paused, Liu Qi turned his head and asked, "Sir!" It's better to send someone to break through, as long as one person goes out! ”

Xu Shu shook his head, looked at the tight encirclement of the Dongwu army under the city, and then glanced back at his lazy army, shook his head and sighed: "This matter is absolutely impossible, let's leave it to fate." (To be continued.) )
