Guan Yu interrupted Jiang Yi with an unquestionable voice, he himself attached great importance to the word loyalty and righteousness, and did not want to embarrass the two, this time in the battle, seeing that the two were not happy, Guan Yu felt relieved in his heart, and valued the two of them a little more.

"Since the general went in person, I will take this vanguard-position."

Since following Guan Yu to Jingzhou, it has been very stable in the past few years, Zhou Cang has not been on the battlefield for a long time, this time Guan Yu personally commanded the navy, and he naturally asked for the position of pioneer. Guan Yu looked at Zhou Cang and Guan Ping next to him, and now it was the three of them fighting together, and he couldn't help but think of the defeat of Fancheng back then, if it wasn't for Liu Changsheng, he was afraid of himself.

326 Battle on the Water

After being silent for a long time, he suddenly sighed and said, "The years are really ruthless, Zhou Cang, look at your hair, you are also old!"

"Huh?" Zhou Cang was waiting for Guan Yu to give him the vanguard order, why did he suddenly talk about this?

Facing the enemy, in the big tent of the Chinese army, Guan Yu is in love with his children?

Zhou Cang was stunned, Guan Yu still sat solemnly, but the killing arrogance in his eyes disappeared, is this still himself, the second general who followed him?

Seeing the surprise in Zhou Cang's eyes, Guan Yu stroked Chang Su and smiled, "This pioneer is yours, but you also have to promise me that you must be safe and sound."

"The eldest husband is on the verge of killing the enemy, but he wants to advance without retreating, how can he be timid?"

Zhou Cang replied loudly, how many years of birth and death, he has not frowned, especially after following Guan Yu, he handed over his - cut to Guan Yu.

Although Guan Yu didn't say it, there was no difference between treating him and Guan Ping, just with this trust and favor, he couldn't repay Zhou Cang's broken bones, this - the righteous father was not called out in vain.

Guan Yu shook his head helplessly, he also knew Zhou Cang's surname, so he no longer instructed, and instructed Zhou Li next to him, "You will go with your father, and you must be careful."

Zhou Li didn't say anything, just hugged his fists and took his life, to be honest, he was in awe of Guan Yu, although the awe-inspiring and inviolable atmosphere on Guan Yu's body had calmed down a lot in the past two years, but he could still hide away from it, and he panicked when he got close.

"Report!" At this time, the sentry horse came to report, "Wu Jun has set up a water village in Chibi to practice table tennis horses."

Guan Yu nodded slightly, and waved back the people, Lu Xun really chose the place of the Battle of Chibi as he thought, on such an open water, the advantage of those people as an upstream navy no longer exists.

"The Wu army has already set up a village, the land of red cliffs stretches for thousands of miles, and the water surface is open, what is the best strategy for the military division to resist the enemy?" Guan Yu saw that there was nothing wrong as expected, so he asked "Zhuge Liang" next to him.

Zhuge Liang waved a feather fan, chuckled, and said, "Dongwu believes that the naval army is invincible in the world, if you rashly attack, it will be disadvantageous to our army, not as follows - Changsheng War Book, agreed on water - battle, Dongwu thought that we looked down on him, and had to respond."

This was all discussed before the upgrade, and if he was allowed to make a plan for this impostor, he would not have such a big guts.

"The warlord really has a brilliant plan!" Guan Yu also cooperated just right, and hurriedly praised it, saying, "If Wu Jun should not fight, I am afraid that he will be laughed at by the world."

With a cold snort, he said to the generals, "We want to let the people of the world know that the navy of the world is not the home of Soochow, and the Jingzhou navy is the strongest, and the time to test you has come."

"Yes!" Seeing that Guan Yu suddenly had to flutter and be majestic, everyone was excited in their hearts and replied in unison.

Guan Yu then ordered someone to send a war letter to the Eastern Wu Water Village, and waited for the news of the Wu army.

＊＊＊＊＊＊

Chibi, Dongwu Water Village connects more than 200 miles, the two sides of the Yangtze River are covered with flags, and the boats shuttle back and forth.

The murderous naval army Dazhai exploded at this moment!

"What? Jingzhou gave us a war book? Did those people figure it out?"

"I really don't know how thick the ground is during the day, do you think that with a few broken ships, you can compete with our navy?"

"This time I'm going to be the vanguard and let those people see what a real navy is."

"Damn, it must have been Jiang Yi's bastard's idea, how much did he think he had learned? Just running here to show off? It seems that it has to be taught a profound lesson to those people." Some even burst out foul language.

"This time, if you want to beat those people into the water, and then continue the pursuit, this is called beating the water dogs!" I don't understand who suddenly said such a sentence, and it immediately caused a burst of laughter.

Seeing the war letter sent by the Shu army, the Eastern Wu Navy was completely insane, and they all angrily scolded the Jingzhou Army for not being able to do anything.

In the eyes of those people, the Shu army took the initiative to send war stickers, which clearly looked down on those people in Eastern Wu, which was unacceptable to the general Wu who was proud of his navy.

It's as if he was about to show off his favorite treasure to others, and suddenly found that others didn't take this thing in his eyes at all, how could he stand it?

"Looks like we're going to have to fight!" Xu Sheng looked at the mess below, and said to Lu Xun with a wry smile.

Seeing this situation, those people seemed to really have no choice, they were about to go out of the table tennis, but they didn't expect Guan Yu to step down the battle book first, what else could they wait for?

Lu Xun just looked at everyone lightly, full of righteous indignation, but his face was unwavering, but his eyes were very firm, "The battle is certain, I, the Dongwu Navy, it's time for Yang Wei!"

Although the sound was not very loud, the words were in their ears, and everyone heard them clearly, and everyone gradually calmed down, waiting for Lu Xun to give the order.

"Governor, this vanguard will be handed over to me."

Zhu Ran shouted loudly, among the sailors, his qualifications are old, seeing that everyone was stunned, he hurriedly grabbed the order.

"The vanguard is mine."

"Me too."

"Let me do it!"

When everyone saw Zhu Ran's request for orders, they all stepped forward one after another, wanting to win the first battle and teach the Jingzhou Navy a lesson.

"Everyone, don't be impatient!" Lu Xun motioned to the generals to calm down, and said, "Guan Yu took the initiative to make an appointment, those people must have something to rely on, you have rich experience in water warfare, but you must not underestimate the enemy, and it is a taboo to underestimate the enemy in the army!"

The generals listened to Lu Xun's words, some of them were disdainful, and some of them nodded secretly, so far, no one has seen how the Jingzhou Navy has been trained to compete, and the scouts sent have all gone and never returned, and they have not found any news.

But no matter what, I admire Lu Xun's calmness and caution very much.

Lu Xun saw that everyone's expressions were not good, but they were not a little broken, and continued, "Since General Zhu Ran has received the order, General Zhu Ran will lead a hundred ships, and General Lu Dai and Zhu Yi will guard the naval army's Dazhai, and the rest of the generals will go out to fight with me, and the time will be set at noon tomorrow."

Lu Dai is a stable person, although he also wants to go to war with the army, but he is more concerned about the overall situation, so he has to accept the order.

Lu Xun handed over the reply letter to the comer, and agreed to wait in the Chibi Column at noon the next day.

"This Zhuge Liang won't do any tricks, right? How can you fight in a water war?" Waiting for everyone to disperse, Zhou Tai frowned and asked. Lu Xun shook his head and said, "Although I can't see through what Zhuge Liang and Guan Yu want, but they have Zhuge sitting in the town, they still have to be careful, Ping Pong, and sophistry!" In order to protect the best policy, the general sent someone to send a letter to Shiyang, and closely monitored the Hanyang troops of the Shu army, so as not to be hit by Zhuge Kongming's voice and attack the west

Count."" What the governor said is very true, but does this Jingzhou Navy really have the power to fight?" Zhou Tai agreed, and asked more.

327 Water Encounters

Zhu Ran and other generals also have the same idea, no matter how powerful the Jingzhou Navy is, it should not be strong, even if Liu Changsheng forcibly took away the latest building ships made in Eastern Wu back then, but the improvement in the past few years has long been different from what it used to be

This uproar.

Lu Xun sighed and replied, "It's not a secret, I also sent people to infiltrate Jingzhou, but Guan Yu was very well prepared, especially the naval army, and he didn't find the slightest situation, those people don't know what kind of military system they used, as long as our people infiltrated it, they would be found out within a month."

"So powerful?" Xu Sheng on the side was taken aback, this speed is too fast, and there is no leakage, just this, I am afraid that even Wei Guo will not be able to do it.

"Therefore, this is the most terrifying place," Lu Xun's eyes were full of seriousness, "There are clouds in table tennis, knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent, and being invincible in a hundred battles. Now we don't know how powerful the Jingzhou Navy is, so we still have to be careful! Ming said-War, only victory, not defeat!"

Listening to Lu Xun's firm voice, Xu Sheng and Zhou Tai both nodded, both of them are veteran generals in the army, so they naturally understand the important surname of this battle, if they are defeated in the war, they are afraid that their morale will fall to a low point, not to mention attacking Jingzhou, Guan Yu is lucky not to kill him.

Thinking of this, both of them realized that if they were defeated, the danger of the three rivers would no longer exist, and even the entire Wu Kingdom would be fluctuating, so they had to fight to the death.

"Only win, not defeat!" Xu Sheng and Zhou Tai clenched their fists and solemnly repeated to Lu Xun.

The green hills on both sides of the red cliff stretch out, the water surface is sparkling, with the breeze blowing, as if a piece of silver light is sprinkled on it, and from time to time there are small fish jumping out of the water, feeling the soothing of the sun, not understanding that there is about to happen here - a big battle.

Zhu Ran had already taken the boat to the agreed place, where the river was stable and he could not feel the power of the current, which indeed reduced the advantage of the upstream.

After choosing the terrain, he ordered the fleets to form a square formation and wait quietly for the arrival of the Jingzhou navy.

Looking at the improved ships around him, he was full of self-confidence, as far as the current equipment and ship improvements of the Soochow Navy were concerned, he was afraid that Jingzhou would not be able to think of it, right?
