The river lapped against the side of the boat, making a rhythmic rattling sound, and occasionally a few beautiful waterfowl skimmed the deck, tilting their heads to look at the men and women below. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

"I thought you were a lobbyist." Qin Lei said lightly.

"The concubine did take the initiative to hire a lobbyist errand." Standing behind him, Yun Luo whispered softly, "If it weren't for that, the imperial brother wouldn't have let me come back." ā€

"Huh?" Qin Lei stroked the railing lightly and said in a nasal voice: "Is this the reason why you haven't returned for eight years?" ā€

"Yes." Chu Yunluo nodded slightly and explained to him: "Frankly speaking, that year, when the concubine learned that her father had been dead for a long time, she had some complaints about the prince, and on the spur of the moment, she left without saying goodbye and went back to Chu to mourn. ā€

"It's mine, isn't." Qin Lei finally turned around and said in a deep voice: "At that time, I just felt that you were still young, and I was going to wait a few years to tell you." Now it seems that this approach is somewhat inadequate. ā€

"The concubine didn't mean to blame the prince." Yun Luo said to Qin Leifu: "Although I didn't understand it at the time, I did lose my temper, but after the concubine returned to China, I realized that the two imperial brothers had fought upside down and were bleeding. ā€

"Ha......" Qin Lei smiled slightly and did not speak.

"Seeing the royal brothers fratricidal, I want to go back. But the fifth brother said that according to the etiquette system, the married princess should mourn for her father for three months, so I had to stay again. Yun Luo said softly: "When the concubine wanted to leave again three months later, she found that she had been placed under house arrest. ā€

"House arrest?" This was very different from what Qin Lei originally thought, and he couldn't help but raise his voice and ask, "Then the messengers who took you back three times were all blocked by your imperial brother?" ā€

"The concubine is under house arrest in the deep palace, and she is not allowed to contact anyone, and naturally she has never seen the envoy of the prince." Yun Luo said with a gloomy expression: "The concubine originally thought that she was powerful, but in the end, she found that once others didn't buy it, I was just a lonely and weak woman...... If it weren't for this war between the two countries, he might never see the prince for the rest of his life. That sad look made the stone man soften his heart...... Not to mention Qin Leihu.

"The letter that your imperial brother handed over to the envoy must not have been written by you himself." Qin Lei was quite embarrassed and said: "Seeing that the letter was so resolute, he didn't send anyone to pick you up, which is indeed a bit hasty." ā€

Yun Luo wanted to cry and said: "If you want to write that kind of thing, why should the concubine run to Zhongdu to find you......"

"Don't cry......" Qin Lei wanted to reach out to help her wipe her tears, but he felt that in his current state, this action was somewhat light, but seeing that she had closed her eyes, she raised her little face slightly, as if she was waiting for his pity.

Qin Lei's heart suddenly softened, gently wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and said softly: "Since you're back, let's live a good life and don't make trouble anymore." ā€

Yunluo nodded again and again like a bird, twitched his nose and said, "If people know, they will be very well-behaved in the future." ā€

Seeing her delicate appearance, Qin Lei finally connected it with the elf-quirky little girl back then, and couldn't help but scratch her little nose, and scolded with a smile: "Little guy who doesn't grow up." ā€

Yun Luo enjoyed this kind of pampering very much, so she leaned on his shoulder and said, "I don't want to grow up, I'd rather be stupid and stupid forever." ā€

After a brief period of helplessness, Qin Lei grabbed her soft and boneless shoulder. The fleet roared down the river, and a pair of fairy men and women stood at the bow of the ship...... It feels out of place.

After a long time, until the relationship warmed up, Yun Luo asked in a low voice: "Lord Wang, the big war is coming, how do you maintain such a relaxed mentality." ā€

Qin Lei said seriously: "Mount Tai collapses in front of him and his face does not change color, which is the quality that an excellent general should have. The closer we get to the big war, the more we have to find a way to relax. ā€

"I see...... The prince's way of relaxing is so special......" Yun Luo's face was flushed, and she lowered her head to look at the thief's hand trapped in her skirt, it was Qin Lei caressing her buttocks.

"I'm sorry, my hand slipped." Qin Lei naturally moved his hand up, rested on her slender waist, and said with a dry laugh: "Okay, okay, to tell you the truth, because I was born in the army, in addition to swimming, I am also very studied, basically seven tricks through six tricks." ā€

"The prince is really powerful." Yun Luo's little face was full of adoration: "It should be enough." ā€

"It's a pity I don't know anything." Qin Lei sighed lightly.

Yun Luo was stunned for a moment, and then covered her mouth and smiled: "If you don't understand, you don't understand, why are you saying it so implicitly." ā€

Qin Lei smiled and said: "I really don't understand naval warfare, it is very dangerous for a layman to guide an insider, so let them watch it." ā€

"Then why did the prince still come?" Yun Luo asked puzzledly, "It's very dangerous on the battlefield." ā€

"Ah, I'm here to give them a boost." Qin Lei let go of the hand holding her and said with a smile: "Just think of it as a mascot." "There are some things that don't need to be told to her in too much detail.

"Mascot ......" After Yun Luo laughed, she fell into silence for a while, and then said quietly: "Will the prince leave my imperial brother's life?" In fact, she also knew that Qin Lei was unlikely to kill the emperor of Chu State, but she was always relieved to make sure that she came.

"Oh," Qin Lei said with a funny smile, "How did you know that I would win?" Maybe then I want you to intercede with my eldest brother and let him let me live? ā€

"Originally, I thought the Imperial Brotherhood would win." Yun Luo raised her head and looked at him, and said very seriously: "But after seeing you, I know that he can't win." ā€

"Why?" Qin Lei asked with an itch.

"Because ......" Yun Luo's face suddenly turned red, lowered her head and said with a mosquito voice: "Because you are my man......" After speaking, he buried his head in Qin Lei's broad chest and never raised it again.

In the afternoon of the same day, the Zhennan Navy reached the upper reaches of Sanjiangkou, and Zhu Lie led his invincible armada, which had been waiting at Sanjiangkou for a long time. In order to achieve the goal of a decisive battle with the Qin army, the Chu army was divided into three divisions, one occupied the mouth of the Xiangjiang River, the other occupied the lower reaches of the Jingjiang River, and the remaining main fleet lined up on the river, preparing to face the impact of the Qin army.

The Chu army in three directions formed a net of heaven and earth, just waiting for the Zhennan naval army of the Qin State to break in.

Seeing the Qin fleet slowly lined up seven or eight miles upstream, the people of Chu actually gave up the best opportunity to disrupt their formation, and just waited there quietly.

After the Qin army finished arraying, a Chu warship suddenly sailed away from its own formation, and only waved its flag according to a certain pattern when it was out of range of the Qin army's artillery.

"What is he doing here?" Yun Luo asked curiously.

Qin Lei knew that it was a flag language, but he didn't know what it meant, but fortunately, the sentry on the boat sounded for him: "Lord Qiqi, the state of Chu invites you to fight in Dongting Lake!" ā€

Yes, Zhu Lie wants to fight with the Qin army in another place, although this section of the Yangtze River is hundreds of zhang wide, but for the thousands of large ships of the two armies, it is still too narrow, and it cannot be used at all!

After several years of fighting, Zhu Lie was completely tired of dealing with the Zhennan Water Army...... I don't want this increasingly strong enemy to continue to grow enough to match me.

Therefore, instead of seeking a surprise attack, he issued an invitation to transfer the battlefield - I have run out of patience, if I am brave enough, I will go with me to the 800-mile Dongting Lake to fight it out!

The opinions of the generals of the Qin army were quickly passed on, and after reading every note, Qin Lei's expression moved, and he said in a deep voice: "Then let's fight!" "The generals of the navy are not worried that the Chu army will be ghostly, because the vast Dongting Lake is a hundred times wider than the river, and they are reluctant to ambush at all, and they can't do anything about it.

It took an afternoon and a night for the naval armies of Qin and Chu to sail into the lake and line up opposite each other on the side of Jun Mountain. The officers and men on the warship were quietly recuperating, waiting for the moment of dawn.

The Great War is just after dawn!

Dongting Lake is a part of the ancient Yunmengze, it is the largest lake in the world, since ancient times, there is a "eight hundred miles of Dongting" said, for the navy of this era, it can be described as a vast and boundless giant Ze.

Surrounded by mountains on three sides, and with an open horseshoe-shaped basin to the north, there is no doubt that this is the best place for the decisive battle between the two strongest naval armies in the world in terms of topography!

In the South Dongting Lake, there is a mountain surrounded by water on all sides, facing Yueyang Tower across the water, this is the Jun Mountain that the literati and sorcerers of the past dynasties like to sing. This is the place where the legendary Empress Ying was martyred; It is the place where Qin Shi Huang closed the mountain; It is the destination of Liu Yi's book, and these myths have been passed down for a long time, bringing many legendary colors to Junshan and Dongting.

And today, a new legend, a new hegemony, will be born here, and all legends will be eclipsed......

As the sky grew brighter, the soldiers on both sides could already see the silhouette of the opposing ship. The officers hurriedly commanded the warships to adjust their formations to deal with the enemy formation. Looking at the black and overwhelming enemy warship, he couldn't even look left and right, Qin Lei couldn't help but gasp and said, "It's really very interesting!" He sat peacefully on the chair and quietly watched this unprecedented super water army battle.

After all, the number of warships of the Qin army was smaller, and they completed the preparations first, and at this time, a round of red sun jumped out of the water, and the vast lake was dyed golden in one fell swoop.

After a cannon shot, the Qin officers and soldiers shouted 'revenge' in unison, and then launched an attack first.
