didn't wait for others to react, but Zhang Liao's eyes lit up,

"What the general said, but Shanyue?"

"Yes, it's Shanyue people."

Yang Ling smiled and nodded.

At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the Central Plains was in turmoil, and the heroes were divided.

Taking advantage of the civil strife in the Han Dynasty, many foreign races in the surrounding area had ambitions and wanted to invade the Central Plains again and again.

However, in front of Yuan Shao, Cao Cao, Gongsun Zhan, Sun Quan and other princes, these alien races were really vulnerable.

For example, the Wuhuan clan's Gang Dun Shan Yu was easily beheaded by Zhang Liao in White Wolf Mountain.

It's just that although these alien races are not the opponents of the princes of all parties, they have been defeated repeatedly, and they come to sneak attack every once in a while.

Among them, there are not only the barbarians such as Wuhuan, Xianbei, and Xiongnu in the north, but also Shanyue in the south.

They refused to accept Jiangdong's control, gathered in the mountains and forests, and came out to harass Jiangdong from time to time.

Whether it is Sun Ce or Sun Quan, they have sent troops many times to eliminate them.

However, the people of Shanyue have lived in the mountains and forests for a long time and are familiar with the terrain.

Once they were defeated, they immediately hid in the mountains and forests.

When the wind passed and Jiangdong withdrew its troops, the Shanyue people came out again to make waves.

Such an act really gave Jiangdong a headache.

Historically, Sun Quan has not been able to go on the Northern Expedition, and it is largely because the Shanyue people have dragged their feet in the rear.

"The two of you infiltrated the hinterland of Jiangdong to contact the leaders of the Shanyue people and launch a guerrilla struggle in the rear of Jiangdong."

Yang Ling commanded.

"Students take orders!"

Jiang Wei and Deng Aiqi gave up.

"It seems to be a difficult matter, but it's not easy at all."

Dian Wei couldn't help but sigh.

Through the blockade of Koto, infiltrate the unfamiliar Koto and contact the people of Shanyue.

This is extremely difficult for Jiang Wei and Deng Ai, who are only in the year of the weak crown.

"Listening to your words is better than a seat. What Brother Dian Wei said is very true! ”

Gan Ning nodded in agreement.

"If you two say something that makes the slightest sense, it won't make any sense at all."

Yang Ling glanced at the two of them angrily, and then turned his head to Jiang Wei and Deng Aidao,

"This is indeed extremely difficult and dangerous, but it is precisely this that can show the abilities of the two of you."

"If it can be successfully completed, the teacher will not treat you badly."

The people sent to contact Yamagoe and carry out the struggle behind enemy lines must be extremely capable.

Although among the generals under Yang Ling, people like Zhang Liao, Gan Ning and others all meet this requirement.

But they are all not young, and people like Sun Quan, Lu Su, Han Dang and others have seen them.

If you find out, you'll be in trouble.

Jiang Wei and Deng Ai are different, they are young and have never met Jiangdong.

Most importantly, they are both exceptional, shrewd and capable people.

It was only fitting to send them on this mission!

"Please rest assured, Brother Shizai and I will successfully complete the task!"

Jiang Wei agreed.

"That's good!"

Yang Ling nodded with satisfaction.

After accepting the task, Jiang Wei and Deng Ai did not rest too much.

On the same day, they packed their bags, prepared food, water, and maps, and then prepared to set off.

Yang Ling led everyone to the outside of Hefei City and personally saw them off.

Seeing the two students go away in a small boat, Zhang Liao on the side was a little worried,

"I don't know if the two of them can pass the blockade of Jiangdong."

"Wenyuan and rest assured, the Yangtze River is so wide, how can Jiangdong be foolproof?"

Yang Ling smiled and comforted,

"If the army passes, it will naturally be impossible to hide."

"But they're just a small boat, so they must be out of the way."

They stood for a while longer, until the figures of Deng Ai and Jiang Wei completely disappeared, and then they returned to Hefei City.

……

Spring went to autumn, and in the next few months, Yang Ling stayed in Hefei City.

The dock he and Gan Ning had previously finalized had been completed.

A steady stream of timber was transported from Shouchun in the rear to the dockyard, where it was turned into warships.

In addition, the four daughters of Xiao Qiao, Foot Trainer, and Pan Shu, under Yang Ling's unremitting cultivation, were all pregnant with his children.

As for Sun Shangxiang, who had a hard mouth, he was also successfully eaten by Yang Ling on a dark and windy night.

For Yang Ling, it can be described as three joys!

On this day, after inspecting the dock, Gan Ning returned to Hefei to meet Yang Ling.

"I've seen the general."

"Xingba is back, how is the situation in the dock?"

Yang Ling asked with a smile.

"If it is next month, there will be almost a hundred warships."

Gan Ning paused, then said with a wry smile,

"It's just that these warships can't compete with Jiangdong's sailors, and they won't last long."

Although Yang Ling has ordered to look for shipbuilding craftsmen across the country, he has to admit that Jiangdong is one of the best in terms of shipbuilding skills.

The docks outside Hefei City are all smaller ships such as ships, and if they really fight head-on, they are by no means the opponents of the Jiangdong Naval Division.

And due to the rush of time, Cao Jun could not choose the best wood to build.

These warships, made of inferior wood, can only be used for two or three years at most, and then they will sink because of their lack of strength.

However, Yang Ling was quite satisfied with this.

After all, he didn't plan to have a long battle with Jiangdong.

As long as the war starts, Cao's army will cross the river with thunder and directly attack Jianye.

Yang Ling thought about it and said to Gan Ning,

"I plan to use troops against Jiangdong at the end of this month, what do you think?"

Gan Ning couldn't help but be taken aback when he heard this.

"It's too hasty to use troops at the end of the month, right?"

With the warships captured from Jiangdong earlier, the warships of the Cao army in the Hefei area only add up to a little more than 100,000, and they can only carry 10,000 people to survive.

On the other hand, Jiangdong has at least thousands of warships and tens of thousands of sailors.

Under such circumstances, it is really unwise to want to use troops against Jiangdong by water.

"If you don't need soldiers this month, wait another two months, and the rainy season in the south will come."

"At that point, we won't be able to use troops, so we can only wait for the rainy season to pass."

"However, the rainy season has passed, and winter is coming, and sending troops is even more troublesome."

"Rather than this, it is better to send the army in advance, and it is better to take Jiangdong by surprise."

"As for the fact that our navy does not have an advantage, don't worry, I already have an idea in my heart."

Yang Ling explained with a smile.

Hearing him say this, Gan Ning didn't say anything anymore, just nodded in response.

"General, if we send troops, do we want to send someone to inform Your Majesty?"

Zhang Liao on the side reminded.

Although under the command of Yang Ling, Cao's army first recovered Jingzhou, then beheaded Lü Meng and captured Huang Gai alive, making great contributions.

But Cao Pi's fear of Yang Ling has not been alleviated.

It can be seen from his reward for Yang Ling.
