A.D. 201, the first year of the Han calendar, winter. To read the latest chapters of this book, please search on Baidu:

At this time, it has just entered winter, but on both sides of the Yangtze River, it is not particularly cold, especially there will be no heavy snow, so the impact on the war is not as great as that from the north.

At the same time that Liu Xuan ordered a final attack on Jiangdong, Xu Shu had already set off for Yizhou, and Liu Xuan's plan began to be accelerated.

And on this day, he himself stood on a warship and watched his army rampage across the wide river towards the Jiangdong Army Water Village on the opposite side.

"Strange!"

Along with Liu Xuan, there are all the civil officials who went south this time, and the military generals are Dian Wei, Xu Chu, and Qin Yilu, the generals of the Tiger Guard.

Their presence made the surrounding ships seem very nervous, and if the enemy rushed onto this ship, it would be a great sin - but the actual situation was that if anyone really ran to the warship where Liu Xuan and them were unsightly, it would be a self-defeating net.

At this time, it was Guo Jia who came with him, and after looking at it for a while, he found that the Jiangdong Navy was acting very strangely: "The resistance of the Jiangdong Army does not seem to be so resolute!"

Not far from the front, the fleet led by Lu Bu completely ignored all kinds of harassment and attacks by the Jiangdong naval army, and rushed towards the water village on the opposite bank with great determination.

So far, it's nothing, but what follows is incomprehensible.

After seeing that their harassment had no effect, the Jiangdong Navy was sunk by the other party's strange weapons, and at the same time, after the approaching battle was completely self-defeating, they actually adjusted their formation slightly and fled downstream, and they didn't care about the water village at all.

Mo said that Guo Jia noticed that something was wrong, and even Diao Chan, who didn't understand military affairs at all, saw something strange.

"Why didn't you run away without fighting?"

In the confrontation just now, although the Jiangdong Army lost several warships, in fact, their combat power losses were not large, especially the largest warships did not participate in the battle at all, and the losses were all small ships.

Even in close combat, it was just a group of ordinary sailors, and the general was not seen - the two sides always maintained communication, and Liu Xuan never heard the information about killing such and such a general.

"There are also a lot of Jiangdong generals, what Ding Feng, Zhou Tai, Jiang Qin, Ling Cao, etc., are all considered to be handsome for a while, why are they not seen in this battle?"

If it is Chen Wu or something, it is not surprising that he has not seen it, Sun Ce's life and death are unknown now, and the imperial army is so strong, those people who are the Jiangdong clan will inevitably look very swaying. update

Historically, when the Sun family was in power, they never used these big family descendants to take charge of the army, but there was no consideration in this regard, especially the military generals who were reused at the beginning, all of whom were loyal and had no big clan background.

The ones that Liu Xuan thought of just now were such people.

Jia Xu also came with the army this time, and he thought of something at this time, but with his character, no one asked, he would definitely rot his words in his stomach and never say anything for the rest of his life.

But Liu Xuan noticed it, and he couldn't say it if he wanted to.

"What do you think of Wen He?"

"The Sun family seems to have given up!"

Jia Xu's speculation surprised everyone, but most people felt that this seemed a bit unreasonable, if the Sun family gave up this period and allowed the imperial army to cross the river, then Jiangdong would have no barrier to follow, what were they going to do to continue to fight against the imperial court? Could it be that they wanted to submit to it?

It's no wonder that these people can't figure it out, because they don't know that Yu Ji and Liu Xuan have reached an agreement, and Liu Xuan passed on some 'knowledge' that did not belong to this era to the Sun family through Yu Ji. ...,

With that map, the Sun family has one more choice, although this road is not so easy to follow, but in the current situation, it is better to retain enough strength and lay a new foundation overseas, than to wait for death here in Jiangdong to be exterminated by the imperial court.

At least, if they develop overseas, they still hope to counterattack back, but if they hold on, in the end, there seems to be no other choice but a dead end.

Liu Xuan couldn't help but glance at Jia Xu a few more times, this guy really deserves to be the top strategist of the Three Kingdoms, even if he doesn't have enough information, he can deduce the truth from some clues.

In the future, when Jia Xu has the support of the entire Han intelligence agency, how far will he be able to go? If nothing else, perhaps he will be able to play a considerable role in building a defense system to guard against the attack of the 'empire.'"

However, if you want Jia Xu to do that, you still need to let him 'understand' more, and at present, it is far from enough.

Stepping to the bow of the ship, Liu Xuan took a look at the warship.

The square hull and flat-bottom structure look imposing, but in fact, this kind of boat is not what Liu Xuan wants at all.

Even Huang Yueying didn't look down on this ship, but the ship developed by the imperial court itself was still in the exploration stage, and it hadn't even built a test ship, so it could only be dealt with first--anyway, it could be loaded with people.

As for the current research work of the imperial court, there is no need to rush to popularize the ships currently being studied directly, and it is completely possible to continue the research, upgrade and update until a ship that can satisfy Liu Xuan is formed, and then carry out large-scale manufacturing.

After such a cranky formation, Xu Chu next to him suddenly spoke: "Your Majesty, General Lu's soldiers and horses have already rushed into the Jiangdong Army Water Village!"

When he raised his head, he saw a dense crowd of warships rushing into the Jiangdong military water camp from the entrances of various water villages, but in fact, Liu Xuan had no interest in this battle.

"That water village, eighty percent is empty!"

In fact, just as Liu Xuan guessed, when Lu Bu stepped into the water village with the halberd, he looked at the water camp that was not popular at all, and jumped to his feet: "Guts rats!"

After scolding for a few sentences and venting his sulkness, Lu Bu directly arranged for the next step.

Anyway, it is necessary to occupy the water camp, whether it is an empty camp or not, the first thing to do is to check if there is any cat in this water camp, in case he lives here, the Jiangdong army will come to a fire attack or something to burn his soldiers and horses clean, this sin he can't afford.

"Go, give me a good inspection of the camp, and release the scout horse to detect everything within fifty miles of the water camp, and you can't let go of the slightest abnormality!"

The generals were ordered to leave, and Lu Bu patrolled the camp by himself, and at the same time reported everything to the Son of Heaven.

After Liu Xuan learned the news, he could almost conclude that there must be something strange in the water camp, but let Lu Bu handle these things by himself, and he couldn't rely on himself for everything.

This Han realm is not very big, and he can still deal with it, so he can't follow him when he conquers various galaxies in the future, right?

"Anyway, even if you are ambushed, you will lose some soldiers, horses and ordnance, and you won't be injured at all!"

As for himself, Liu Xuan had no interest in putting himself in the midst of the fires, and then fled in panic like smoked black charcoal.

But after this night, Liu Xuan found that Lu Bu did better than he expected.

Of course, it is also possible that these generals led by Lu Bu are themselves of excellent quality, and the pre-placed ignition materials in the camp were cleared out almost in half a day, and the Jiangdong soldiers who were originally ambushed near Zuo and wanted to take advantage of the night to carry out a sneak attack and ignite the fire were also arrested by Tanma one after another. ..., even if this group of people dug a pit and buried themselves, they were still caught by this group of sharp-eyed guys, and they couldn't figure out how they were exposed.

They wouldn't know that what they thought was the perfect disguise was nothing more than a child's play in front of these 'special' instructed ponies.

In other words, with the expansion of the forbidden army in recent years and the absence of several main elite corps, the appropriate elimination and replacement have made some elite soldiers who no longer meet the standards be eliminated into the ordinary forbidden army.

But even if they are eliminated, they are also the elite of the elite in the forbidden army, and the vision and strength of these people far exceed that of ordinary forbidden soldiers, and Jiangdong soldiers are not even as good as ordinary soldiers of the forbidden army, let alone these people.

Arresting these people, even if there are a few fish that slip through the net, it will be difficult to succeed, even if they have to come out and light a fire, it will not play a role other than sending themselves to the forbidden army - Lu Bu has already arranged a set of fire prevention measures, even if there is a fire in the place, the fire can be extinguished in the shortest possible time.

Under such precautions, the last gift that Zhou Yu wanted to give to the imperial army was not successfully sent.

"Alas, let's go, there is no place for us in Jiangdong anymore!"

Standing in the distance and looking at the direction of Chibi from afar, until the sunrise did not see the firelight rising, Zhou Yu knew that all his arrangements were useless.

There was also a young man standing beside him, whose blue eyes made him look very special, standing there at this time, stroking the ancient ingot knife that Zhou Yu had brought back - this knife did not fall into the hands of the imperial court, and Zhou Yu brought it out when he ran away again - this saber that his father had used had come to his hand after his brother had used it for a while.

"Is that what you are leaving?"

Sun Quan was still a little unwilling, but Yu Ji and Zhou Yu clearly told him: At present, they do not have enough strength to confront the imperial army head-on, and instead of fighting to the death and finally ending up in a certain fate, it is better to temporarily retreat, and then work hard to strengthen and finally seek a counterattack.

Sun Quan also understands this truth, and he also understands one thing: as long as he nods his head, then the Sun family will be in charge of himself in the future, even if his brother's son Sun Shao grows up, he will not threaten his status. If he shook his head, Zhou Yu would probably leave directly with Sun Shao and most of the people loyal to Sun Ce.

"Can you buy time by living overseas?"

Sun Quan looked at Yu Ji, but Yu Ji did not answer, but Zhou Yu replied: "The sea is vast and dangerous than the Yangtze River, and there is a sea barrier, even if it is the imperial court, it is helpless......"

"Since the sea is so dangerous, can we get through it?"

This time, it was Yu Ji who replied: "Maybe it's not realistic for everyone to arrive safely, but this immortal can guarantee that all the important people are safe and sound......"

With this guarantee, Sun Quan didn't hesitate anymore, and nodded directly: "Since that's the case, let's go!"

P.S: Volume 2 is almost over, and the third volume will begin...... The time flow of the third volume will speed up a lot, and it will not be written like this year after year, after all, a group of old people will not die, and there will be no difference between three or five years and three or five days.
