Sure enough, many boats appeared on the wide river, which made Zhang Yun immediately nervous.

But he couldn't help but smile dumbly.

These ships were of various sizes, and although there were quite a few of them, there were no combat ships such as the Battleship, and all of them were clustered together, and it was clear that they were not prepared for a big war.

If it is an enemy, it must be Jiangdong's naval army coming from this direction, and Zhang Yun does not believe that there are people in the world who are completely ignorant of water warfare and blindly command like Cao Ren.

"Governor, what should we do with these ships?" Zhang Yun's subordinates subconsciously asked.

Zhang Yun pondered for a moment, with a solemn face:

"Send a ship, and get the people on that boat...... Wait, I ask General Cao to give the order! ”

Seeing that there was an accident on the river, Cao Ren's guards were not easy to stop, so they muttered a little bit of thought, and then let Zhang Yun go to see Cao Ren.

Zhang Yun climbed into the cabin and hurriedly reported the military situation to Cao Ren, and said that he should quickly divide his troops and capture and kill the people on those ships.

"Why?" Cao Ren said weakly.

The bumps of the big ship on this road really made Cao Ren suffer, although the speed of the boat was not fast, Cao Ren was still dizzy, and he wanted to vomit when he saw Zhang Yun, and his voice was slightly irritable.

Zhang Yunxin said that this is special and needs to be explained?

This time, the 30,000 naval army marched, using more than 500 large and small warships, which is already nearly half of the Jingzhou naval army, and the remaining ships are either for the training of the soldiers in the north, or stationed near Xiangyang, or in the renovation, in case this ship is the enemy, Jiangling is not unprepared?

However, Cao Ren was a big official, and Zhang Yun had no choice but to lower his eyebrows and pleasing his eyes, and reluctantly said:

"I'm afraid those ships are enemies, so we'd better be cautious."

Cao Ren looked at the guard behind Zhang Yun, and the guard took out Xu Shu's "Key to Breaking Liu" from his arms and looked at it carefully, and sure enough, he found it from above, if there was a boat on the river, he would be divided into troops to destroy it.

He nodded at Cao Ren, Cao Ren snorted, stood up with difficulty, looked out through the small window of the cabin, and saw more than 20 civilian ships floating in the river fog in the distance, and his heart was really unspeakably bored.

"Zhang Yun," he said unhappily, "Zhang Dudu, do you know how to fight?" ”

Zhang Yun shuddered, and even said that he didn't dare.

Cao Ren sneered:

"Since ancient times, the enemy's situation has not been clear, and it is a taboo for soldiers to rashly divide troops. Our army marched with thousands of sails, the momentum was huge, it was the time when Liu Bei was leveled, if the troops were divided at will, the ship formation would be dispersed, and the big ship would inevitably delay time.

If Liu Bei has a precaution, what should he do? ”

Before Zhang Yun could say more, Cao Ren waved his hand impatiently:

"Even if those people are enemy troops, no more than a thousand people, can they still take Gangneung? Back then, I commanded the army to fight Huguan, and more than 1,000 high-ranking cadres frequently attacked and harassed the flanks of our army. Needless to say, Jiangling is impregnable, and we just have to advance all the way and eliminate Liu Bei. ”

Zhang Yun scolded in his heart, but he had no choice but to go back and let everyone leave those boats alone and continue to move towards Xiakou.

·

Guan Ping stood at the bow of the ship, looking at the dense fleet of Cao Jun in the distance, and couldn't help but feel a little afraid in his heart.

With so many ships, at first glance, they are the main force of the Jingzhou naval army, if they suddenly divide their troops to attack themselves, they can only rely on the advantage of small boats to escape quickly.

From a distance, these big ships were actually too lazy to divide their troops and marched straight towards Xiakou, obviously not taking themselves into account.

Guan Ping was a little surprised, but he glanced at Lu Yi with great admiration.

Before leaving Xiakou, Lu Yi had already made a prediction.

In Xiakou, Lu Yi simply told Guan Ping what happened, of course he didn't say that his uncle had a problem with Zhang Zhao, he only said that Zhang Zhao was scheming, and he had already discussed it with Sun Quan and Liu Bei, this is a big game of chess.

This made Guan Ping admire Zhang Zhao's idea even more.

He didn't know that all this was a joint plot between the Confucian general and Sun Quan in front of him - Lu Yi felt deeply cared for by Sun Quan and was unwilling to betray Sun Quan for this.

Although his uncle Lu Ji has a strong reputation, after all, he is young and has the opinion of a scholar, and he is completely unaware that he has fallen for Zhou Yu's plot to lure the snake out of the hole, no matter who wins or loses between Sun Quan and Cao Cao in the future, the Lu family will definitely suffer a catastrophe.

So he made a difficult choice.

Taking advantage of Zhuge Liang's arrival in Jiangdong, Lu Yi immediately contacted Zhou Yu's military advisor Pang Tong and asked him to convey to Zhuge Liang his willingness to cooperate against Cao Cao, Zhou Yu also tacitly agreed, pretending not to hear Lu Ji's conspiracy before, saying that as long as the matter was properly resolved, he would never hurt the Lu family, and Sun Quan also praised Lu Yi's loyalty.

Zhang Zhao and Lu Ji, two scholars, thought that they had already controlled the overall situation, and they could end everything when Cao Cao's eastern expedition was completed, and the army they carefully organized to kidnap Guan Ping was naturally detained by Liu Bei in Xiakou, and Liu Bei also showed his trust in Lu Yi, and selected 1,000 people from the most capable naval army under his command, which was jointly commanded by Guan Ping and Lu Yi.

Lu Yi asked all his subordinates to change into white clothes (civilian clothes), and all the warships were replaced with civilian ships, and more than 1,000 people pretended to be business travelers, and continued to advance towards Jiangling according to the detailed plan of Zhuge Liang and others.

Lu Yi's skills can finally be displayed, and Zhang Zhao and the others think that everything has been arranged, and Zhou Yu is not afraid to come back, and now they are waiting for the good news that Guan Ping was captured.

As everyone knows, Guan Ping is now commanding not the soldiers of the family in Jiangdong, but the elite soldiers under Liu Bei who have an unforgettable hatred for Cao Cao - oh, in addition to Guan Ping and Lu Yi, there is also Liu Dian who is at a loss but takes the initiative to come with him.

The plan was shocking, but this only stabilized Jiangdong a little, and it basically determined the framework of the Sun-Liu Alliance, but it could not fundamentally change the strength balance between the Cao Jun and Sun-Liu Alliance.

Now, it will take Guan Ping's hard work to save the situation a little.

"Cao Jun is defenseless, gentlemen, let's wait for the opportunity to cover up and kill the past!"

Liu Dan, who took the initiative to ask to leave Xiakou, seemed to have been resurrected, chattering all the way, giving full play to Sun Fu's expertise when he was a military advisor, and constantly giving Guan Ping ideas, and he was very excited for a while.

He could see at a glance that the general of the Cao army would not command the navy at all, and the building boat loaded with grain and grass was at the end of the whole army, and there was no protection around it - you must know that the boats on the river were not as easy to mobilize as the men and horses on land, and with the level of Cao Jun's formation, Guan Ping and the others might not be able to react after they got on the boat and made trouble.

Lu Yi also set his eyes on Guan Ping, and seemed to approve of Liu Dian's suggestion.

When they sent troops this time, as long as they had a capture, they could bring a certain amount of damage to Cao Jun, even if they completed the task, Lu Yi almost dared to guarantee that with the water battle command ability of Cao Jun's three-legged cat in front of them, they would definitely be able to kill them and run away with their heads full of ashes.

Now it's up to Guan Ping's decision.

Guan Ping looked at the Cao Jun fleet not far away and slowly shook his head.

"No, forget it."

Liu Dan grinned, and secretly scolded Guan Ping for being cowardly.

If there is anything you don't dare, anyone with a discerning eye can see that this is a good opportunity.

If it was Guan Yu, he would definitely lead the army to rush up.

"Brother Lu, do you dare to go to Jiangling again according to the original plan?" Guan Ping asked.

Liu Dian blurted out:

"This ship is gone, who are you going to fight again?"

The previous plan was to go to the vicinity of Jiangling and find a night to sneak attack the Cao Army's naval division warships moored on the shore, and strive to burn some of them, even if the mission was completed.

But now that Cao's warship has set off, if there is a disturbance in Jiangling, there is a risk of being attacked from both sides when he escapes.

He believed that Lu Yi would never agree to this proposal.

But he set his eyes on Lu Yi, and actually noticed a trace of burning and madness in Lu Yi's eyes.

"The little general dares to go, why doesn't Lu dare?"

"Uh......" Liu Dian swallowed, "What do you mean?" ”

"The previous plan was to hit and run, but this time we can do big things. This time it will be difficult for Cao Thief to sleep! ”
