Chapter 365: Cai Mao is looking for a place

"The warships of the Yangzhou Navy are docked in Jiangxia County? Are you telling the truth? How many warships do they have now? "When Cai Mao used to run rampant on the Yangtze River, he still had the heart to go out to show off, but now he really doesn't have any intention to go out, after three battles, he was beaten by Gan Ning every time, and then he never went out again, and his water army stayed in the water village every day to chat, drink and fight crickets. When he got up early in the morning, he was drinking tea and preparing to rinse his mouth, when he received a report from Jiangxia County that three warships of the Yangzhou Navy had stopped by the river in the morning, and Cai Mao couldn't help but feel refreshed.

"Governor - there are really only three warships, one of which is Gan Ning's handsome ship, and Gan Ning's handsome flag is hoisted on it! It's just that he took a team of people around Jiangxia County early in the morning and didn't know what to do. Now there are less than five hundred sailors on the three ships, and the county keeper asked the little one to come and report to the governor, and ask the governor to decide-"This report is the subordinate of Deng Long, the county guard of Jiangxia County, Deng Long is a distant cousin of the Cai Mao family, this person is still a bit of a brain to guard Jiangxia County, this place is adjacent to the Yangtze River, most of the people are fishermen, the walls of Jiangxia County are tall, as long as they can guard the city gate, ordinary bandits can't get in. Deng Long has a little martial arts and has Cai Mao's help, he is loyal to Cai Mao, and the grudge between Gan Ning and Cai Mao can be said to be bigger than the sky. In the past, even if the water bandits were rampant on the Yangtze River, as long as the Jingzhou Navy was out of the horse, it was guaranteed that the water bandits would flee, mainly because the construction and maintenance of the warship required a lot of expenses, and the Cai family was able to find ways to spend money from the Jingzhou Treasury, and the Jingzhou Navy was very sophisticated in terms of personnel and equipment. But Cai Mao's only defeat on the Yangtze River was when he met the Jinfan thief Gan Ning, who was originally the overlord entrenched on the Yangtze River, who knew that Gan Ning's sudden rise occupied the 800-mile lake in Dongting, and gradually began to argue with Cai Mao, Cai Mao relied on how big his ship was to destroy Gan Ning, but Gan Ning chose to fight with him in the reeds, and the fire boat was hidden in the reeds and burned Cai Mao's army to the ground.

Since then, Ganning's Jinfan thieves began to fight against Cai Mao, and the naval armies in the Yangtze River basin have formed alliances with Ganning, so wary of each other that there is no more major war, but Zhou Yu's first combat order after subduing Ganning is to sweep away all the remnants of the Yangtze River Basin, Yangzhou gave him support for the loss of soldiers and grain and grass warships, Ganning was originally an idle lord, and the addition of Ding Feng and Jiang Qin under his command is even more powerful. When Guo Jia was idle, he followed Gan Ning out to the Yangtze River to breathe, and by the way, he gave him some ideas, and soon all the remnants of the Yangtze River basin were swept away, leaving only two naval armies, one is the Yangzhou Naval Army and the other is the Jingzhou Naval Army, and Zhou Yu's order is to control the Yangtze River basin instead of governing the Yangtze River with the Jingzhou Naval Army. Gan Ning took the lead in sending a small boat to Cai Mao's water village to ambush Cai Mao's warship, but fortunately, there were not many water ghosts sent by Gan Ning, so they burned Cai Mao's more than a dozen big ships.

Where can Cai Mao, who got the news, endure this breath, he Cai Mao has this confidence in water warfare, if he is called second on the Yangtze River, he does not dare to call it first! Over the years, he has studied water warfare deeply, and his tactics of water warfare have reached the point of perfection. But he didn't know one thing, that is, the reason why Gan Ning sent a few water ghosts to burn the boat was to let Cai Mao come out to take revenge, otherwise how could he hurt Ah at once. Guo Jia secretly mobilized Huang Zhong and Zhou Tai to help, they were born on both sides of the Yangtze River basin, and they were somewhat familiar with water warfare. Now they still belong to the Han army, if they really kill Cai Mao, it will be tantamount to rebellion! Cai Mao was forced to sign a treaty, and in the future, Jingzhou's warships were not allowed to appear on the Yangtze River, otherwise they would set foot on the Jingzhou Water Village in one go.

Even if Cai Mao knew that they were a threat, but the face of the Jingzhou Navy Governor could not afford to lose, after he returned to the water village, he began to secretly accumulate strength to want to be ashamed, and in just two or three months, it was obvious that his Cai family's income was reduced by half, and he couldn't even support the Navy in this way, and the final result could only be to dismiss the Jingzhou Navy Army, and he would become a bare-bones commander if he was the governor. Cutting off people's financial routes is the same as killing Cai Mao, how can Cai Mao not want to repay such a hatred?

"But do you see the truth? It is indeed three warships, and they are still under the banner of Gan Ning? Cai Mao was still afraid of Gan Ning's tricks, and once again confirmed that Gan Ning was bringing such a little people?

"Dudu-the villain will never dare to say a lie, and I have sent a small boat to search for it within a radius of ten miles, and I have not seen any trace of the army. The explanation is that there are only three warships! Again, he replied categorically.

"Someone is coming—order all the warships to assemble and target Jiangxia County! Remember to block everything within ten miles of Jiangxia County, and you will only be allowed to enter and not be allowed to go out - if anyone dares to force their way out, then don't be polite to me! The Governor of Pontus arrived—" Cai Mao immediately stood up and began to call for the herald to give the order to the water village, while he went to change his armor and prepare for the battle.

Ding Feng, who was parked outside Jiangxia County, didn't know that he had fallen into Cai Mao's encirclement, and the men and horses in Jiangxia County had begun to slowly assemble, although there were less than three thousand people, but it was a big force. This time, Cai Mao came out of the nest to seize Gan Ning to regain control of the Yangtze River, although he didn't dare to create too much friction, but he still dared to retaliate with a tooth for a tooth-

"This is the legendary Jiangxia County - looking at this construction is still good, anyway, I am passing by to find a hotel nearby to fill my stomach first, this has been walking for three hours, everyone should be hungry! I'm going home soon, so I'm looking for a place to deal with it, and I'll have a good time eating and drinking when I go back in the evening! "Anyway, I'm not in a hurry, although there are still three miles away from the place where the boat is parked, but for Zhou Yu, who has been rushing for days, is somewhat sleepy, people can generally feel that they are dusty when they are about to get home, a kind of tiredness from the heart, he looked back at the people behind him are tired, their nerves are too tight along the way.

"Okay—let's find a place to rest! But what's good outside the city, let's go into the city and taste the good things inside, my lord, you can't go back empty-handed this time, right? Take this opportunity to prepare some gifts for the old lord and the two ladies, otherwise you will not be able to confess, right? Hehe-" Gan Ning smiled sinisterly.

This reminded Zhou Yu that it was indeed inappropriate to go back empty-handed, this gift had to be bought, otherwise it would not be enough to go back and share, he is now also a big family, Zhou Yu was secretly glad in his heart that Gan Ning reminded him early, otherwise it would be embarrassing after going back!
