At the beginning of the ancient battlefield, the number of people won the war, and slowly when the number of people began to lose the advantage, it began to improve weapons and equipment, from bronze swords to iron swords, iron spears and iron shields in the back. However, due to the restriction of the furnace temperature, the iron tools also reached a certain limit, and the princes of all walks of life began to transform the chariots and siege equipment, until they were finally beaten by the Xiongnu and Xianbei, and then began to try to form cavalry and improve the tactics of infantry to deal with cavalry. The most neglected is the water army, the biggest threat to the Han Dynasty is still from the nomads in the north and the ethnic minorities in the south, the water bandits on the Yangtze River are raging in the eyes of most people after all, after all, there is no root, and only Cai Mao has such a vision, that is, the Yangtze River basin is a channel full of gold, so he insisted on establishing the Jingzhou Water Army, and the Jingzhou Water Army is the strongest water army of the Han Dynasty without comparison.

"Governor - Yangzhou Navy stayed outside Yunmengze without movement, their warships stayed in the water village of Dongting Lake, it seems that our method of crossing the river with an iron cable is a big nemesis of Yangzhou Navy Army. It's just that over time, will anything change? Yangzhou Governor Gan Ning is a well-known Jinfan thief, he is scheming and does not play cards according to common sense - "Cai Mao stayed in the Jingzhou Navy Dazhai is watching the terrain to prepare for the next move, obviously Pang Tong handed him the method is still very practical, a long time ago he secretly arranged for the Navy to turn into fishermen to fish as an excuse to pour iron pillars on the north bank of the Yangtze River, the south bank of the Yangtze River is to find a reef where the sect leader another iron pillar, and then let people secretly build iron cables, the length of the Yangtze River from the beginning of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau has been flowing into the sea, The width is also very wide, the thick iron cables at the mouth of the bowl are all made of the live mouth section by section, and the Yangzhou army moved together in the big war, Cai Mao took the lead in sealing all the roads outside Yunmengze, and only small fishing boats could pass through.

"Mr. Pang's iron cable across the river is almost incomprehensible, unless they cut the iron cable, there is no such magic weapon in the world today, both sides of the Yangtze River are heavily guarded by the governor of the capital, are easy to defend and difficult to attack the terrain Yangzhou naval army can not attack, timely attack on the short period of time can not break the iron cable, as long as the beacon tower wolf smoke together with the governor of the city can rush to the aid in a short time, then the Yangzhou naval army will become the turtle in the urn. And Mr. Pang explained that the strength of our naval army is not as good as that of the Yangzhou army, and we only need to defend it well. The Jingzhou army has gone to Wuling County to support, what we need to protect is the supply line is continuous, and even if he Zhou Yu'er has a thousand skills, it is impossible to fly over. Cai Mao was very satisfied with Pang Tong's proposal, including Kuai Yue and Kuai Liang admired Pang Tong's talent, only once Zhou Yu miscalculated that Liu Biao in order to be able to block the Yangzhou army in a battle, Huang Zu and Wen Ping led 100,000 troops to aid Wuling County, not only that, Pang Tong also secretly followed the army to give advice, after Pang Tong left Changsha, he couldn't swallow a breath of evil in his chest and wanted to help Liu Biao extinguish Zhou Yu's prestige, let him know that Pang Tong was not something they could humiliate.

Dian Wei and Zhou Cang led 10,000 Yangzhou elites to land from Huainan, Sun Ce had already received Zhou Yu's letter and arranged for Huang Gai to answer early, Yuan Shu chose to turn a blind eye to the Yangzhou army through Yuzhou, Zhou Yu asked Zhang Zhao to select ten Yangzhou thin horses in Yangzhou to send to Yuan Shu, Yuan Shu looked squinting and had long forgotten the unhappiness with Zhou Yu, in the past few years, he passed on the jade seal of the country in hand, Zhou Yu also took the initiative to make peace with him, for him it is equivalent to Yangzhou has surrendered to the same, Jingzhou Liu Biao he also looked a little unpleasant, Sun Ce wanted to avenge his father, Zhou Yu also wanted to find Liu Biao to seek revenge, he Yuan Shu hoped that both would lose and then he would reap the benefits of the fisherman.

According to the plan given by Guo Jia, that is, after Dian Wei and Zhou Cang Huainan landed, they would rest during the day and march at night, and warned Sun Ce to wait for Dian Wei and their troops for three days before they could slowly send out their troops. The routes that Dian Wei chose for the secrecy of the march were all inaccessible paths, which made the march more difficult, but also reduced the chance of being discovered by Jingzhou Xiaozuo.

Gan Ning and Ding Feng put on coarse cloth short clothes and racked a few broken boats, and began to swim on the river to fish, and the Jingzhou Navy received the order to defend against the Yangzhou Navy, and they only symbolically expelled the fishing boats fishing on the river. After several days of exploration, the Jingzhou naval army was very tightly defended on the river, and the biggest problem for a large-scale march was that the warships could not pass, and the reefs were very dangerous if they detoured.

After considering these uncontrollable reasons, Zhou Yu and Guo Jia discussed to let Gan Ning and them pretend to be fishermen to pass in batches to prevent weapons, oil, sulfur and other materials in the mezzanine at the bottom of the ship, while Ding Feng led a naval army to harass the Jingzhou naval army outside Yunmengze and in front of the iron pillars on both sides of the river, giving full play to the advantages of the trebuchets on the warship, and severely beating the Jingzhou naval army to cover the secret passage of Gan Ning's large army.

Obviously, Cai Mao didn't expect that the Yangzhou army would attack the fortress of their defense so blatantly, Yunmengze was overgrown with reeds, Zhou Yu asked people to wrap a large net soaked in fire oil on the reeds, and when the weather blew the east wind, a fire burned most of Yun Mengze, so that Cai Mao's ambush soldiers could only be forced to retreat, and the Jingzhou army stationed on both sides of the strait was hit by Ding Feng's stone bullets in the past few days, and the blood flowed, but fortunately, the Hengjiang iron cable on the Yangtze River was still intact. It's just a series of onslaughts, and Gan Ning has already hidden in a safe harbor with a hundred small boats, and there are twenty sergeants on each ship, so there are two thousand men and horses.

Zhou Yu has been thinking about this iron cable for a few days, smelting the iron cable with fire is obviously not good in time, he has seen a cutting weapon in later generations, that is, a water jet, as long as the pressure is strong enough, the steel can be cut instantly, but this method cannot be realized. Then he could only choose another way, that is, to use sulfuric acid bubbles, at first he didn't find that there was a live hole on the iron cable, but he was given death by the Jingzhou army. The place where the iron rope was soaked with sulfuric acid began to fall off, in order to let Jingzhou water relax its vigilance. Ding Feng has been repeatedly smashed with stone bullets for half a month, and the Jingzhou Navy has become numb to attack like this, and everyone is thinking in their hearts that they can't get in anyway, what should they do!

In the past few days, the water ghost also learned that Cai Mao's water army Dazhai, Zhou Yu calculated the wind direction and decided to launch an attack on Jingzhou Water Village three days later, as long as Gan Ning and they saw the opportunity to set fire, and took the lead in breaking the fishing net at the entrance of the water village, then the fire together The warships of the Jinzhou Water Army will definitely be burned, and it is impossible for the Jingzhou Water Army to rise in a short period of time, so that the Yangtze River Basin is Zhou Yu's world, and no one dares to come out again. It's just that whether you can succeed is not only in the right time and place, but also luck-
