As soon as Sun Yu and the others got on the boat, there was a golden light behind them, and the golden word "Jinfan" flew into the air, covering all the Jinfan thieves, Gan Ning shook the copper bell on her waist, jingling like a magic bell urging life, and more than a hundred warships with Jinfan rushed into the Danjiang waterway in the jingle of the copper bell.

Sun Yu saw a few water thieves in the reeds rowing a sampan and hurriedly fled, but was quickly shot down by Gan Ning's arrows...... The wolf-like brocade thief screamed and snatched the small sampan that was already unmanned.

Gan Ning commanded loudly, but unfortunately the voice was too small to hear clearly. Meng Xiang stood beside Gan Ning, acting as a voice repeater, relaying her orders to the surroundings over and over again.

Yan Yun said with a bitter face: "I'm going to take a small boat again, the small boat is shaking more than the big boat, I really can't stand it." ”

Xiao Xu Shu grabbed two grilled sea bass and ate happily, just now she was talking and laughing with Gan Ning, but when she saw Sun Yu, she stopped talking.

Sun Yu couldn't do anything about her, so he had to row a boat and return to Xiangyang.

This trip to Jingzhou, Sun Yu has already gained a lot, on the one hand, he has completely mastered the terrain near Jingzhou. On the other hand, he heard that Liu Biao's navy was not in Hanshui, and went to Jiangxia to compete with the Jiangdong navy. The three aspects are to persuade Gan Ning's Jinfan thief to join the Gongsun Army, which is really overjoyed.

However, Sun Yu also knew that Gan Ning was not so easy to take refuge, unless Gongsun Yu hit the edge of the Han River and showed his strength, Gan Ning would not be willing to take refuge in a weak force.

In the final work, Sun Yu planned to go to Xiangyang City, Liu Biao's home city, to take a look at the terrain and distribution of troops near Xiangyang.

In fact, it doesn't matter if Xiangyang City goes to reconnoiter or not, Sun Yu only needs to fly over with nm01 to take pictures, but Sun Yu has a selfish intention, that is, he wants to go to Xiangyang City to take a look and step on the land of Xiangyang City with his own feet, because in later generations, Sun Yu is very yearning for this historical city.

Xiangyang City, also known as the first city in China, is surrounded by the Han River to the north and east, and the Jingshan Mountains to the west and south, in other words, the city is faced with water on both sides and mountains on both sides.

This unique geographical location makes Xiangyang City possible to rely on the steepness of the mountain and the danger of the river, although it is not as heavy as Yanjing, but it can borrow a river of spring water and win ten miles of scenery. It can really be described as a beautiful mountain and clear water, and the two sides are beneficial.

Xiangyang has been a traffic fortress since ancient times, known as the "thoroughfare of the south ship and the north of the horse, and the thoroughfare of the seven provinces", and has always been a channel for trade and cultural exchanges between the north and the south. The location is superior and the transportation is convenient. Xiangyang is bordered by Sichuan and Shaanxi in the west, Jianghan in the east, Hunan and Guangdong in the south, and Wanluo in the north, and is the transportation hub of the adjacent areas of Hubei, Chongqing, Sichuan, Shaanxi and Henan.

In the thousand-year-old history of China, there are countless large and small battles in Xiangyang City, the famous ones are: the battle of Baiqishui irrigating Yancheng, the battle of Guan Yu flooding the Seventh Army, the battle of Zhu Xu's resistance to Fu Pi, the battle of Yue Fei's recovery of Xiangyang, the battle of Xiangyang in the Song and Yuan dynasties, the battle of Li Zicheng's entry into Xiangyang, and the battle of Xiangfan in the War of Liberation.

With such a super ancient city in front of him, Sun Yu really couldn't help but go in and take a look, otherwise he would have come to Jingzhou for nothing.

The boat slowly leaned towards Jingzhou, and Sun Yu released NM01 to take pictures at high altitude.

After a while, nm01 returned, showed Sun Yu a bird's view of Xiangyang, and analyzed: "The city wall of Xiangyang is made of mud and stone, with a total length of 7,377 meters, an average height of 10.84 meters, the lowest point is 7 meters, the highest point is 11 meters, the city wall is very thick, the bottom is 13 to 15 meters thick, and the top is 6 to 11 meters thick......"

Hearing this report, Sun Yu's cold sweat flowed down in an instant, and the top of the city wall was 6 to 11 meters thick? Wait, one of my arms is about a meter long, and the walls are 6 to 11 meters thick, isn't it as long as my six arms are connected in the thinnest place? Damn, how did you make such a thick wall? Even if you smash it with a thunderbolt, you don't want to smash it.

NM01 continued: "The city wall is still a minor problem, the most troublesome is the moat of Xiangyang City, which is 5,060 meters long, 250 meters wide at its widest point, and has an average width of 180 meters......"

Silk, Sun Yu gasped, 180 meters wide moat? Your sister, brother has seen some real rivers that are only a few dozen meters wide, which means that this moat is more like a river than some real rivers.

The last time Sun Yu returned from Xuzhou to help Hebei, he was surrounded by Yan Liang, Wen Chou, Zhang He and others by the Gao River, which was only 50 meters wide, which was not as good as the moat dug by Xiangyang City...... This simply makes no sense.

It seems that Xiangyang City can only outwit, not attack hard, otherwise I don't know when it will be fought. In fact, Cao Ying in another parallel time and space was not a hard-fought Xiangyang, but persuaded Liu Cong to get Xiangyang City.

Sun Yu's boat had come to the North Water Gate of Xiangyang at this time, this city gate was a water gate, made of huge iron bars, somewhat like the water fence of later generations, but it was much rougher, usually lifted high, and sank into the water when defending, blocking the waterway.

Sun Yu paid the entry tax, easily entered the water gate, and the boat sailed on the Xiaoqing River that ran through the inner city of Xiangyang.

Xiangyang is worthy of being a super city, and the Xiaoqing River is full of cargo ships, merchant ships, and fishing boats...... On both sides of the river, peddlers and pawns are busy, and they travel back and forth endlessly.

However...... This city did not satisfy Sun Yu's desire to see the ancient city, in Sun Yu's imagination, this historical city should be more imposing and more soulful. However, although there are many pedestrians on the street, they lack spirit, and although there are many boats on the river, there is no order, and some are chaotic.

Sun Yu thought silently for a while, and thought to himself: This kind of spirit should be caused by the ruler of Xiangyang, that is, Liu Biao, if the believer is not enterprising, the people will become this lifeless. Just like China at the end of the Qing Dynasty, from top to bottom, most people put on an indifferent face, which is a kind of dullness like the arrival of the end of the day!

Compared with the people who live and work in peace and contentment under Tao Qian in Xuzhou, the people who struggle in blood and fire under Chen Liumimiyan, and the fierce people under the rule of Gongsun Zan in Beiping...... The people of Xiangyang City have a passable and mixed atmosphere, this kind of atmosphere should be brought to them by Liu Biao, a prince who is dying and old, and he doesn't even have the courage to participate in the anti-Dong Zhuo alliance army.

This kind of waste, it is impossible for my brother not to win, it is only a matter of time before he occupies Jingzhou, Sun Yu said to himself.

At this time, the boat passed through a bustling waterway, which was lined with shops on both sides, and the street was twice as crowded with pedestrians as before.

Yan Yun said loudly: "General, look over there, there is a blacksmith shop!" ”

Sun Yu smiled: "What's so strange about the blacksmith shop, I've seen a lot." ”

Yan Yun wiped his cold sweat and said, "Look at what is written on the sign hanging in front of the shop." ”

Sun Yu turned his head to look and wrote a row of seal scripts, and 01 hurriedly translated: "This store sells seven-stone strong bows." ”

"Seven stones?" Sun Yu Great Khan, the last time he bought a five-stone bow in Beihai City, Sun Yu clearly remembered that the archer said that ordinary craftsmen can't make strong bows with more than five bows, why is there a seven-stone bow sold in the store here? Could it be...... The god of work is here?

Sun Yu was overjoyed, the person who worked was very ethereal, so that Sun Yu didn't know where to start if he wanted to find it, if she was in this blacksmith auxiliary, her brother would just be abducted.

Sun Yu hurriedly moored the boat by the river, and then walked to the blacksmith shop with Yan Yun and Xiao Xu Shu.

The auxiliary side is quite large, and there are a variety of things inside, including spears, large knives, plowshares, iron hoes, kitchen knives, and cattle knives...... It seems that this is a civilian and military, all-encompassing grocery store, not just a blacksmith shop.

As soon as Sun Yu walked in, he saw a bearded man greet him and said with a smile: "What do you want to buy from the guest officer?" The villain's name is Lu Ren, and he is the owner of this shop, and I have a kitchen knife here......" As soon as he opened his mouth to say a kitchen knife, he suddenly saw Sun Yu and Yan Yun clearly, not like ordinary people.

So he immediately changed his words and said: "The big swords and spears I have here are all first-class and good iron made of iron, and they are used to cut people. ”

This guy is a clever character, Sun Yu is slightly funny in his heart, seeing that he has a big beard, his ability to check words and look at things is not small.

Sun Yu smiled and said, "I want to buy the seven-stone bow on the sign at the entrance of your store." ”

"Huh?" The bearded shopkeeper Lu Ren was obviously stunned, and he stared at Sun Yu with curious eyes and said, "Guest officer...... Of course I'm glad that you're going to buy something from me, but this seven-stone bow ...... Can you use it after you bought it? The Seven Stone Bow requires seven hundred catties of arm strength to pull it away, don't blame me for not reminding you, although you and your retinue seem to have a lot of strength, but the strength of the arm cannot reach seven hundred catties! ”

He paused and said, "If it's a woman...... At the very least, you have to have a martial arts skill above the blue level to be able to use 700 catties of arm strength to draw the bow......"

Sun Yu glanced at the bearded man depressedly, and thought: This world is not good at all, no matter where a person comes out, he looks down on men, what's wrong with men? Men can hold up half the sky! Belch...... Although Sun Yu could pull out the seven-stone bow to prove that he had this strength, he didn't want to expose it and shock the world, so he said casually: "I'm here to help my general buy a bow, she is a golden general, and she can use this bow." ”

The bearded Lu Ren stared at Sun Yu with a distrustful look, looking left and right, looking forward and back, and after looking for a long time before he said, "Really? ”

"Really!"

Lu Ren shook his head and said, "I'm sorry, I can't sell it to you." The man who sent this bow here has repeatedly told me that this bow should only be sold to whoever can pull it open, so as not to waste it, and that I cannot sell you the treasure of my town shop with your words. If you lie to me, you don't buy it for the sake of the female general, but buy it back and hang it on the wall as an ornament, then you will waste such a good bow. ”
