Chapter Thirty-Four: Lu Bu, a Horseman's Ear!
Zhou Tai took over the conversation and continued: "Since this is the case, then Liu Bei will definitely leave the big war ship in Yinling, and only take the fast ship to attack Huaiyin. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info I want more than 300 sergeants, of which 200 are used to infiltrate the Yinling ferry and burn all Liu Bei's big war ships, and the remaining 100 are to organize fast boats, after Liu Bei enters the Huaiyin ferry, block the river, and when Liu Bei leads the army to flee north, load the empty boats with firewood and grass, ignite them and ram the enemy.
Although it could not completely destroy Liu Bei's army, it could deal a fatal blow and destroy all its warships, so that Liu Bei would not be able to compete with Yuan Zhoumu on the river. In this way, Huai'an is desirable and Huaiyin can be guaranteed. ā
With a smile in his eyes, Yuan Jiang turned his inquiring gaze on Yang Hong, who clapped his hands and said in sincere approval: "Youping's plan is very good. Childe will succeed according to what he said. ā
Yuan Jiang nodded, "Then another thousand will be given to you from the three thousand soldiers and horses that have been self-contained." ā
Zhou Tai hurriedly waved his hand, "It doesn't take that much, just give me a thousand is enough." Moreover, the ambush battle at the Huaiyin Ferry was the key to this battle, and there were only 2,500 soldiers and horses, which made it much more difficult for itself. ā
Li Zicheng raised his eyebrows quite confidently, "It doesn't matter, I have all these three things, so I will definitely be able to break the enemy army." ā
After the plan was decided, Yuan Jiang stood up and made a final summary, "In this battle, Xu Sheng will not be defeated, I hope everyone will work together to break through the enemy army." I will feast in the city, waiting for you to triumph and celebrate. ā
"Good!"
After Li Zicheng and Zhou Tai were ordered to leave, not long after, Chen Dao, who went to Sun Ce's place to borrow troops, led Cheng Pu and Huang Gai back to restore their lives.
"The last generals, Cheng Pu and Huang Gai, meet their sons."
Cheng Pu and Huang Gai stepped forward to salute together, and Yuan Jiang hurriedly helped the two of them up, with a smile on his face, "Demou, Gongfu, you two can come, God really helps me." Tu Gao thanked me in advance, and when this battle is over, I will immediately cousin my father and promote you two officials. ā
The two bowed their heads and thanked them, and Cheng Pu said: "Thanks to Gongzi's affordability, even if the two of us are shrouded in horse leather, we will not give up." ā
Yuan Jiang nodded with satisfaction, "In that case, the two of you will lead the soldiers and horses of your headquarters to Dongying to join Zicheng, and he will tell you what to do when the time comes." The war is about to start, and I will not leave the two of you here to eat tea, and when this battle is won, it is not too late to sit down and drink and talk. ā
"Whoa!" The two received the order, just turned around, and were about to leave, but Yuan Jiang stopped them from behind, "Demou, please stay." ā
Cheng Pu turned around when he heard the news and asked puzzledly: "What else does the son have to tell the last general?" ā
Yuan Jiang smiled but did not speak, walked quickly to Cheng Pu, bent down and squatted, everyone looked down, only to find that it was Cheng Pu's shoelaces that were loose, and Yuan Jiang was slowly tying him.
Yuan Jiang tightened his shoelaces and confirmed that they would not be loosened again, then he stood up and looked at Cheng Pu who was at a loss in front of him, with a warm smile on his face.
"Childe!" Cheng Pu screamed with emotion in his voice, his throat was a little choked, and he swallowed a mouthful of spit, but he never said the word "thank you".
Yuan Jiang patted him on the shoulder and instructed: "Fight this battle well, don't let me down." ā
Cheng Pu nodded fiercely, "Childe rest assured, this battle will be fought to the death, and he will never disappoint Childe's expectations." ā
Yuan Jiang waved his hand, "Go, may you return with honor!" ā
Just after noon, Zhou Tai, who was disguised as a fisherman and ambushed in Beimikou, was reported by spies, and dozens of clippers were rushing towards this side upstream of Beimikou.
Zhou Tai, who was squatting in the reeds, spit out the reed leaves in his mouth, and grinned, "It's finally here." ā
Adjutant General Chen Ying asked in a low voice, "General Zhou, should we act now?" ā
Zhou Tai shook his head, "If the order goes on, all brothers must not act rashly, and they must hide themselves, and they must not be discovered by the spies sent by Liu Bei." ā
After Chen Ying passed down the order, he returned to Zhou Tai's side and whispered: "General Zhou, the fishing boat you want is ready, and it is parked in the swing in front. ā
"Let's go, let's go meet Liu Bei." Buttoning the straw hat on his head, Zhou Tai stood up, a little excitement flashed in his eyes, and led Chen Ying towards Dangkou.
On the sparkling river, sometimes there is a breeze blowing, there are naughty fish jumping out, looking at the wide world, on the right bank there is a snow-white water bird, stepping on the red flippers, walking in the water gracefully, occasionally poking out a long beak, catching a fish that wants to go to the shore to play, raising its head and opening its mouth, the food is into the belly.
Suddenly, the waterfowl that were looking for a target suddenly raised their heads and looked warily ahead, where there were many clippers, lined up in a dozen columns, riding the wind and waves. It screamed, flapped its wings, and soared into the sky.
On the leading fast boat, Liu Bei stood with his hands in his hands, and behind him stood a Guan Gong with Danfeng eyes and long hair.
Seeing that a waterfowl was startled by the boat, Liu Bei's brows were tightly twisted together, and after a long time, he slowly stretched and sighed.
Guan Yu held the Qinglong Yanyue Knife in one hand, and gently brushed his long hair with the other hand, and said, "Big brother, are you worried about Zilong's loss?" ā
Liu Bei shook his head, "Zilong is brave and fierce, and he is also supplemented by Sun Qian and Jian Yong, it is far enough to defend Guangling, what I am most worried about is Xuzhou, if there is a fire in the backyard, even if we take Huaiyin City, we will not be able to get benefits." ā
Guan Yu comforted him: "Big brother, don't worry. Yide had already led three thousand iron horsemen back to Xuzhou, and there were still Chen Jue's father and son in the city, forgive him Lu Bu had ten dares and did not dare to rashly rebel and attack the city. ā
The corners of Liu Bei's mouth flashed with a hint of bitterness, "Lu Bu, capricious villain, although I treat him well, if there is a villain who slanders, Xuzhou will definitely fall into his hands, and when the time comes, we will be struggling." ā
Guan Yu pursed his lips nonchalantly, "Isn't he afraid of falling into a reputation that makes the world laugh?" ā
Liu Bei smiled meaningfully, "If he had cared about his reputation, then Ding Yuan and Dong Zhuo would not have died tragically." ā
"Boom!" The handle of the knife stomped heavily on the hull of the boat, Guan Yu tightened the hand holding the blade of the knife, and said proudly: "Lu Bu, a horseman, if he really dares to betray the eldest brother, Yun Chang is not talented, he is willing to ride back alone and knock on the pass, and he will definitely take his head and sacrifice it to the eldest brother." ā
Keeping his eyes fixed on a swimming fish in front of the boat, Liu Bei sighed: "I hope he will remember my past kindness and not make it worse." ā
Guan Yu snorted coldly, "Forgive him and don't dare." ā
The two were silent for a while, and then a scout who had gone to explore the way in a small boat came back to his life.
"My lord, I have found out, and if you go north for another twenty miles along the river, you can reach the Huaiyin Ferry."
Hearing this, Liu Bei raised his eyebrows, and he asked: "Is the Huaiyin Ferry guarded by warships?" ā
The scout reported, "No, according to our detailed reports in the city, there are less than five hundred soldiers stationed in Huaiyin City at this time, which is no different from the empty city. ā
The joy on Liu Bei's face was overflowing, "Pass the order, the whole army will advance at full speed, and take Huaiyin City in half an hour." ā
