(Happy New Year, today's second update, I wish you all good health and good luck in the New Year!) ）

The sun is slowly setting in the west, and after a while, it is about to disappear into the horizon.

In the western sky, a touch of orange is blooming, which is the last light of the sun, symbolizing the end of today's day.

Above the Yangtze River, the section that belongs to Chibi, countless wrecks flow slowly with the water, making the players downstream happy, anyway, it is a material that is picked up for nothing, and whoever doesn't pick it up is a fool.

After a fierce battle throughout the afternoon, the morale of Cao Cao's army continued to be low, and if there was no place to escape, there would have been deserters long ago.

This is not like Cao Cao's previous style, Zhou Yu was a little puzzled, but Gan Ning did complete his task, even Cao Cao's army should be like this, Cao Cao decided to fight a decisive battle on the water, this is the most fatal point, and any consequences are possible.

Who made Cao Cao so arrogant that he dared to fight him on the river.

On the flagship of the ship, Zhou Yu raised his wine glass, looked at Gan Ning and drank it all.

"Xingba, how do you feel, are you warm?" After drinking the wine, Zhou Yu felt hot all over his body, which was the result of the upsurge of wine.

Hearing Zhou Yu's question, Gan Ning drank the wine, shook his head, and said this.

"Dadudu, I'm fine, it's just that the soldiers who follow me have some cold, which will affect the decisive battle at night, I hope Dadu Governor will give them more spirits, although it is not easy to drink alcohol on the march, but if you don't drink it, you can't resist the cold river water." Gan Ning's words were still the same as always, for the sake of his subordinates.

Looking at Gan Ning with a calm face, Zhou Yu was very glad that having a general like Gan Ning with him could save him too much convenience, on the water, he and Gan Ning's cooperation was seamless, no matter who it was, they were not their opponents.

"Pass my order, the soldiers who participate in the war during the day can drink as much as they want, as long as they don't get drunk, I won't pursue it." Zhou Yu's loud shouting made the morale on the flagship burst instantly, and those water ghosts who participated in the battle picked up the wine jar and drank it bitterly.

Although it is summer, it is cold enough to soak in the river water for an afternoon, fortunately Zhou Yu prepared wine, otherwise they would have to rest for at least a day to relieve the cold.

The generals shouted Long live the Metropolitan Governor, looking at their excited expressions, Zhou Yu and Gan Ning were very happy, and when everyone was almost drunk, Zhou Yu pulled Gan Ning to no one's place to discuss the decisive battle that was about to begin.

"Xingba, the decisive battle after an hour is very important, if you can kill Cao Cao, it will be of great help to the prestige of the lord, once we kill Cao Cao, then the entire Jingzhou belongs to the lord, Liu Bei doesn't want a piece of land." Zhou Yu took Gan Ning's hand and told him that he must kill Cao Cao with his own hands.

Listening to Zhou Yu's instructions, Gan Ning could only nod emphatically, as long as he could find Cao Cao, then Cao Cao would not want to run.

"Don't worry, I will definitely bring Cao Cao's head." Gan Ning said excitedly.

After that, Zhou Yu told all the matters of the decisive battle, and then asked Gan Ning to go back to rest and prepare for the upcoming battle.

At the same time, Cao Cao's fleet was still moving at a slow pace, and on Cao Cao's flagship, Cao Cao secretly summoned three people to come.

They are Cao Honglejin and Sima Yi, and they want to inquire about today's results.

When the three of them came to Cao Cao's room, Cao Cao knew that it was done, because Cao Hong's grade had changed, and now he was a top general of the red grade, and the other two were also receiving strength and preparing to advance.

However, Cao Hong's state is a little abnormal, and the strength of the red-grade generals will not be so weak, but Cao Hong's strength is still the same as usual, as if he has not been promoted.

"Zilian, how do you feel?" Cao Cao asked.

"Lord, I feel very good, my strength is slowly improving, as long as it takes seven days, my strength can reach the top." Cao Hong said truthfully.

Then Cao Cao asked the other two, and found that the progress of the two of them was a little slow, and it seemed that handing over all the abilities to Cao Hong during the day had slowed down the speed of the two of them.

"My lord, if according to the number of days and at least forty percent more casualties, the two of us will be able to successfully advance, and the promotion of the strategist is more difficult than that of the general." Sima Yi finally said.

Listening to Sima Yi's words, Cao Cao nodded, and arranged for Cao Hong to go directly to the land to prepare for the next thing, anyway, he had already been promoted, and there was no need to stay on the ship.

After a while, Cao Hong left directly and went to the shore under the response of the boat, while Sima Yi and Le Jin stayed at the bottom of the boat, waiting for the infusion of energy.

After everyone left, Guo Jia walked out of the secret room and looked at Cao Cao, who was sitting alone in the chair.

"Lord, everything is ready, all the magic circles are safe and sound, it seems that Zhou Yu has not found anything, this is a great blessing." Guo Jia's words aroused Cao Cao's spirit, and looking at Guo Jia with a smile on his face, Cao Cao also laughed.

"Don't make fun of Fengxiao, I have no choice but to do this, the day in Youzhou is too strong, I can't win without this." Cao Cao said with a wry smile.

"My lord, I don't have to be informal, and my lord has done a good job of doing this." Guo Jia continued to smile.

"By the way, Fengxiao, if I give you the lives of all the soldiers, will you be able to advance to the immortal level?" Suddenly, Cao Cao asked directly.

His question made Guo Jia stunned for a moment, then thought about the feasibility of Cao Cao's words, and in the end, just shook his head.

"My lord, even if I absorb the lives of all the soldiers through the formation, there is still a big gap between me and the immortal level, unless I replace the cannon fodder level with the brave level or above, and the two billion brave level contributions say that there are lives, I can only advance, but with the two billion brave level army, we will directly sweep the enemy." Guo Jia's words made Cao Cao's face bitter again.

That's right, what Guo Jia said was that it was just his whimsy just now, thinking that Guo Jia could be promoted with the formation, but once he had an immortal-level powerhouse, even if he was a strategist, no one could stop him.

The ships that sank this afternoon were all in the formations he installed, as long as the people on it died, they would be sucked away from their lives and souls, and then absorbed by the formations passed on by this ship, for the three people at the eyes of the formation to digest, Cao Hong's promotion is today's achievement, although it takes time to improve the strength, but if you advance, you will be promoted, which saves Cao Hong a lot of time.

According to the number of Cao Hong's needs, when the two billion army dies, at least three people can be promoted, and he can also become a top strategist, Cao Cao is a little happy when he thinks of that, although he consumes a lot of troops and ships, but the cannon fodder army on the ship, he doesn't care at all, as long as there is money, let alone two billion, ten billion can be summoned.

"Fengxiao, how is Wulin's side, how long can Zhongde's skills last?" Cao Cao asked again.

"With Zhongde's strength, it should be no problem to hold on for a day, as long as we are defeated at night today, no one will pay attention over there, nothing will happen." Guo Jia's words were like a good medicine, which made Cao Cao's heart feel a lot more at ease.

When he was anchored in Ulin, he replaced all the elite-level soldiers with cannon fodder-level troops, and then let Cheng Yu use his skills to hide their figures, and then he directly led these cannon fodder armies to the battlefield, waiting to be killed by Zhou Yu.

After listening to Guo Jia's words, Cao Cao wanted to ask some, but there was a knock on the door outside.

"Dangdangdang......" orderly knock on the door, telling Cao Cao that it was his own people.

"What's the matter?" Cao Cao shouted.

"Lord, you are about to go to the battlefield, please be careful." There was a sound outside the door, and then footsteps sounded, and it seemed that the messenger had left.

Hearing this news, Cao Cao knew that he was about to be attacked by Zhou Yu, and it seemed that everything was about to start.

"Fengxiao, it's about to start, you leave first, the temporary teleportation array can only teleport one person at a time, it's too inconvenient." After Cao Cao finished speaking, he pointed to the things in the secret room, and then kept silent.

As soon as Guo Jia heard it, he didn't say anything, let Cao Cao take care, and left directly, and when Guo Jia opened his eyes again, he had arrived in Wulin City, where countless armies were ready to go, in the center of Wulin City, a high platform was built, and Cheng Yu's figure was on it, and the red light curtain covered the entire Wulin City, hiding all the news inside.

"Hopefully everything goes according to plan." Guo Jia muttered to himself.

……

Two hours later, Zhou Yu came to Cao Cao's flagship, looked at the corpses all over the ground, and began to look for Cao Cao's traces, but when he searched the entire ship, he didn't find it, not only Cao Cao, but also those well-known generals, only countless corpses of soldiers.

Seeing this, he knew that Cao Cao had run away, and Cao Cao's generals had also run away, but how did he run away?

Just when Zhou Yu was puzzled, Gan Ning came.

"Grand Duke, I found a secret room." Gan Ning's words finally lit up, hoping that there was the answer he wanted in that secret room.

Following Gan Ning's guidance, Zhou Yu came to Cao Cao's secret room, looking at the empty secret room, and the fragments of the teleportation circle on the ground, Zhou Yu was very disappointed, after reading the secret room, he knew that Cao Cao used a precious temporary teleportation circle, and through the magic circle, he went directly to a safe place, but this temporary teleportation circle was very expensive, it was a rare treasure, but he didn't expect Cao Cao to use it here.

"Governor, here's a letter, I've checked it, and it's not poisonous." After speaking, Gan Ning picked up a letter on the seat in the room and handed it to Zhou Yu.

Unpacking the letter, Zhou Yu read it carefully.

After reading it, his face turned pale, and he threw down the letter and left directly, not even Gan Ning, which showed how angry he was.

After Zhou Yu left, Gan Ning picked up the letter and read it.

"Gongjin Xiao'er, are you still looking for me, I'm waiting for you in Xiangyang, if you dare to come, I will definitely let you go and have no return, I admit that I can't beat you on the water, but on land, you are nothing, come and die quickly......"

After reading the letter, Gan Ning sneered, this is obviously a challenge book, although it is a challenge on land, but even Gan Ning knows that this is Cao Cao's radical general, forcing Zhou Yu to find him for a decisive battle, and then set a trap and wait until Zhou Yu takes the bait.

But Cao Cao had just killed and injured two billion "elites", and the purpose was to let Zhou Yu not go to Xiangyang, and he understood such a simple strategy.

But on second thought, this is exactly what Cao Cao is clever about, so that you can't tell the truth from the fake, the truth is false and the fake is true.
