Zhuge Liang returned home.

Although he lives in seclusion in Wollongong, it does not mean that he has no house in Xiangyang.

You must know that Zhuge Liang's father-in-law is Huang Chengyan, a famous person in Xiangyang, a proper upper-class figure.

It is worth mentioning.

Huang Chengyan married Cai Mao's sister, and to some extent, Cai Mao and Zhuge Liang are related.

But this relationship is not important in Zhuge Liang's view.

If he cared about this relationship, he would not live in seclusion in Wollongong, but would have been in Jingzhou directly.

As for Huang Yueying, her mother is not Cai.

Entered the house gate.

At this moment, Huang Yueying is staying in the backyard.

This is the place where Huang Yueying studies the art of institutions, in fact, Huang Yueying is also a talented woman who is knowledgeable, but in addition to what ordinary readers learn, she prefers to study institutions.

Anyone else might think it's inappropriate.

But Zhuge Liang is different.

He is supportive of Huang Yueying's hobby.

What about studying the technique, it is reasonable for today's women to generally not show their heads and do something they like.

When Huang Yueying turned around, she was a little surprised to see Zhuge Liang:

"Husband, how did you have time to come back today?"

Since Zhuge Liang came out, Huang Yueying has known that he is busy every day and rarely has time to return.

Zhuge Liang smiled and said:

"My husband is free today, in addition, there is another thing to ask Mrs. to teach, please forgive Mrs."

Huang Yueying is tall, with yellow hair and dark complexion, which does not conform to the aesthetics of contemporary people.

She is called an ugly woman by the world.

But if Liu Qi was here, he would definitely not think so.

This Huang Yueying is roughly equivalent to a sporty beauty with wheat-colored skin and dyed brown hair.

But that doesn't matter.

Hearing Zhuge Liang's words, Huang Yueying was a little surprised and said:

"What's the matter with the husband, it doesn't hurt to be blunt!"

Between their husband and wife, they have always been extremely honest, Zhuge Liang directly took out the drawings and handed them to Huang Yueying:

"Madame, look, this is the drawing drawn by Lord Liang, the single ox plough on this is said to be able to greatly improve farming, if Madame is interested, can you improve it?"

In this regard, Huang Yueying did not give a direct answer, her eyes fell on the drawings, and her face was thoughtful.

Zhuge Liang didn't dare to disturb.

After such a moment, Huang Yueying was pleasantly surprised:

"Husband, this drawing is very exquisite, the concubine can try it."

Zhuge Liang said happily:

"Then please Madame."

……

Outside of Chaisang.

A large number of ships swept in.

Many of these warships should have been parked in the port of Chaisang, but at this moment they all became owned by the Jiangxia navy.

At this moment, Gan Ning stood at the bow of the ship at the forefront.

Look ahead.

But at this moment, the port of Chaisang was empty, and there was not even a single figure, which was extremely weird.

This time, Gan Ning did not come in a treasure ship.

The warships of the Jiangdong Navy were almost completely wiped out, and this battle could not be won without the need for treasure ships.

But Gan Ning never expected that Chaisang, which was supposed to be the place where the Jiangdong Navy was stationed, was gone.

In such a situation, there is obviously only one possibility.

That is Sun Quan and them, sensing that the situation is not good, actually ran away directly, giving up the stronghold of Chaisang.

The thought welled up in his mind, and Gan Ning fell silent.

I have to admit it.

This decision is very correct.

Because with the current strength of the Jiangdong Naval Army, it is impossible to defeat the Jiangxia Naval Army no matter what!

Instead of stubbornly resisting, it is better to retreat directly.

It also preserves strength.

If you have to fight hard, the combat power that was so hard to save before will be lost here again.

By Gan Ning's side, Chen Qi, who was also the general of the Jiangxia Navy, said:

"Taishou, what should I do now?"

The location of Chaisang is within the territory of Yuzhang County, that is, the jurisdiction of Yangzhou, which is different from Jingzhou.

Chen's question is indeed quite crucial.

At this moment, Sun Quan has given up on Chaisang, and even moved the population of Chaisang, what should they do?

There is really a feeling that the food is tasteless and it is a pity to abandon it.

Gan Ning fell into thought.

Eventually, he gritted his teeth and said:

"Since Jiangdong has given up Chaisang, then there is no reason for me not to wait, you first bring someone to garrison here.

With Chaisang as the position, it will be much more convenient for the lord to use troops in Jiangdong in the future, but this matter cannot be rashly decided, and he will repair the book and send it to him, and then talk about other things. ”

Chen said yes.

Although Chai Sang was in Yangzhou, he was not panicked at the moment.

Now that the Jiangdong Navy has suffered a great loss in combat strength, it is impossible to attack Chaisang, at least until they recover part of their combat strength.

And judging by the current situation, there is no time to think about it in a few years.

And that's not counting the treasure ships.

If nothing else, the Jiangdong Navy will have no chance to turn over in this life.

After stationed in Chaisang.

Gan Ning immediately sent people around to inquire about the situation.

Sure enough, it was found that the population had been relocated, and Jiangdong's wave of strong walls and clear wilderness was extremely decisive.

You must know that this Chaisang is a naval base that has been operating in Jiangdong for several years, and now you will give up if you say you want to give up. Gan Ning was also a little surprised, Sun Quan's determination should not be underestimated.

After the army was repaired, Gan Ning continued to move along the waterway with part of the navy, wanting to find opportunities.

But he was doomed to disappointment.

Because Jiangdong had already prepared, soldiers were arranged on the shore to defend and be strictly guarded.

Don't give him a chance to hack at all.

Gan Ning has no chance.

I could only take people back, and then write down the situation here, and send someone to Xiangyang City quickly.

In the city of Xiangyang.

Liu Qi and Zhuge Liang were both there, looking at the news sent back by Gan Ning.

After reading it, Liu Qi asked curiously:

"Jiangdong responds like this, does the military advisor have a way?"

Zhuge Liang shook his head and said:

"At least the Jiangxia naval army can't solve it, Jiangdong has obviously given up the water war, just defending on land, unless the lord sends other troops to attack, there is no chance."

Liu Qi suddenly nodded and said:

"My son is white, but it doesn't matter, anyway, my son's purpose is to defeat the Jiangdong Navy so that they can't invade Jingzhou, and now the goal has been achieved.

As for whether you can enter Jiangdong, it is not something to consider now, and it will not be too late to wait until Cao Cao is solved. ”

Zhuge Liang smiled and exclaimed:

"What the lord said is extremely true, and the reaction of Jiangdong now has no impact on Jingzhou, which is also a good thing."

Since he couldn't move Jiangdong, Liu Qi didn't want to.

Now the most critical enemy is Cao Cao.

If you can't beat Cao Cao, it's useless to take Jiangdong now, so you still have to grasp the main contradiction!

Liu Qi calmed his thoughts and said:

"What does the military advisor think, when will Cao Cao go south?"

When Zhuge Liang heard this question, he immediately groaned:

"If it is the original situation, Liang thinks that Cao Cao is at least after the middle of the year. But now that the Jiangxia Navy has defeated Jiangdong, the situation is unpredictable, but Liang is sure.

Cao Cao must have sent troops earlier. ”
