Chapter 495: Give Your Best
"Could it be Liu Qi's trick again?" Xiahou Nan frowned slightly.
Wen Qin had never participated in the Battle of Nanyang, and was quite disdainful of Liu Qi, and sneered: "Joined the army and went to Jingzhou twice, and you have become a frightened bird?" β
"you bird...... Will I be afraid of Liu Qi? Do you really think that Mengde's new book is learned in vain? Xiahou Nan's face turned red, and he clenched his fists and said: "A certain head cantilever beam, cone stabbing stock, three years of hard work to learn the art of war, this time is here to defeat Liu Qi." β
Wen Qin laughed and said, "In this case, what is there to fear from the war book? β
Xiahou Nan said: "The Art of War: Know yourself and know your opponent and win all battles." Now does the navy and Wu Bing really have the strength to fight? β
"Zilin has studied the art of war for three years, so I can't live in a daze?" Cao Xiu was extremely dissatisfied, glared and said loudly: "Do you know how I have spent the past three years? β
Xiahou Nan hurriedly said: "I don't mean to despise the general, but the prime minister said: soldiers, treacherous!" When Liu Qi first arrived in Shuizhai, he issued a war letter, and the governor should not be careless."
"Zilin is right!" Cao Xiu can be pinned on by Cao Cao, he is by no means a reckless person, and he calmed down and said: "In the past three years, the establishment of our navy has surpassed that of Jiangdong, with more than 5,000 ships, more than 1,000 large war ships, hundreds of fighting ships and building ships, and countless small boats, which is enough to fight with the Jiangdong naval army. β
Hearing this, Xiahou Nan's confidence increased greatly, and he was overjoyed and said: "It turns out that the naval army has such strength, and this time we will definitely be able to defeat Liu Qi, and we will be ashamed." β
Wen Qin hugged his fists and said: "If the general responds to the battle, he is willing to be the vanguard." β
Cao Xiu shook his head and said: "Although General Wen is long in Huainan and can drive a boat to urge a boat, but the confrontation on the water is by no means so simple. β
Xiahou Nan offered advice: "Since the general has already had an idea, he can reply to Liu Qi, and go to war in three days, General Wen will lead his troops to guard the water village, in case Liu Qi has tricks again." β
"Hmph, if the Jiangdong rats dare to sneak attack, they will call him and there will be no return." Although Wen Qin also wanted to meet Liu Qi for a while, he also knew that he was the only one among the generals who had not undergone water warfare drills, so he had to be ordered to defend the village.
Cao Xiu then wrote back and ordered someone to send it to Xuyi Water Village, and agreed that they would fight at the mouth of the Huai River three days later and fight with the Jiangdong Naval Army.
When the battle book arrived, Liu Qi unfolded it in front of the generals, and said with a smile: "Cao Xiu really responded to the battle, can you generals have the confidence to fight?" β
Zhou Tai laughed and said: "Cao Xiu'er doesn't know the height of the sky, thinking that with a few warships, he can compete with the Jiangdong Naval Army?" β
Jiang Qin hugged his fists and said: "General Liu, but relax, this time the last general is willing to be the vanguard, so that the Wei army knows what the real navy is." β
Dong Xi also smiled: "Cao Xiu has practiced hard for three years, and he is arrogant, and I will call him a waste of effort." β
"We must teach Wei Jun a profound lesson!" Ma Zhong asked for an order: "The last general is willing to capture Cao Xiu and hand it over to General Liu in exchange for some money, grain, and warships." β
The generals in Jiangdong laughed, everyone knew that in the first battle of Nanyang, many generals of the Cao clan were captured, forcing Cao Cao to ransom people with money and grain.
Pan Zhang said loudly: "When the Wei army comes to fight, it will capsize its boat and beat the water dogs." β
Liu Qi nodded and said: "The military heart is available, I am very relieved, this battle will be commanded and dispatched by Lu Boyan with full authority." β
Lu Xun was stunned, and hurriedly hugged his fists and said: "The general and Cao Xiu issued a war letter, how can there be any reason to command?" What's more, when he first arrived in the army, he was afraid that people would not be convinced. β
Liu Qi said with a smile: "I came to Xuyi, I just want to lead Cao Xiu to fight, break the enemy as soon as possible, take Pi, and seek to capture Xuzhou." As for how to fight, it is necessary for the generals to use their lives, and this so-called man does his best and performs his duties! Bo Yan's water battle was personally ordered by the Metropolitan Governor, far better than Cao Xiu ten times, the generals only need to listen to the order and charge into battle! β
"Yes!" Zhou Tai and others were all moved, Liu Qi's words not only meant self-humility, but also showed his trust in them.
Pan Zhang, Ma Zhong and several people were defeated by Shouchun, thinking of Sun Quan's dispatch and command of everything, and he was miserably calculated, and then looked at Liu Qi, who was like a stream, virtuous and capable, and secretly determined that this battle must be fought beautifully, and it will be shameful.
Lu Xun saw that the generals were high-spirited, and in just one day, Liu Qi's mustard disappeared invisibly, and he couldn't help but feel relieved, and said loudly: "The children of Jiangdong are so talented, and the comeback is unknown!" β
Zhou Tai clenched his fists and said: "General Liu's words are always in our hearts, and three days later, I will ask the general to see the courage of my Jiangdong disciples." β
I still remember that Liu Qi first came to Jiangdong to help in the war, a poem won the applause of the house, after the battle of the beard, the navy showed its might, the fighting spirit was high, and after entering the Huai, it was even more pressed that the Cao army could not raise its head, crisscrossing the Huai River, and could not be compared with the enemy, all of which inspired the soldiers with this poem.
The plan was to take Xuzhou by land and water, Zhou Tai and others had already explored the waters of Surabaya and other waters, and when the three armies were ready to go, who knew that LΓΌ Meng was killed, Sun Quan was defeated again, and all actions came to an abrupt end.
Liu Qi gave up Lu Xun to the handsome position, although he was not very old, he had a calm bearing, looked around at everyone, and said: "Cao Xiu is not a reckless person, if he dares to fight, he must be prepared." Although the generals have rich experience in water warfare, they must not have the heart to underestimate the enemy, which is a taboo in the army! β
The generals saw that although Lu Xun was not as heroic and confident as Zhou Yu, he had an elegant and steady atmosphere, which made people fall for it unconsciously.
Lu Xun then passed down the general's order, and the whole army will conduct drills tomorrow, reiterate the military order, and then formulate new rules, so that all battalions and sailors can act according to the order and prepare for the Wei army.
Zhou Tai also nodded secretly when he heard this, but he was shocked in his heart, he didn't want Jiangdong to have such a talent, Lu Boyan has been in office for nearly ten years, and Sun Quan was recruited as his son-in-law, why didn't he find this person's talent?
When the generals dispersed, Lu Xun wiped the fine sweat on his forehead and said with a wry smile: "The general asked me to temporarily supervise the battle, which is difficult for some strongmen." β
Liu Qi pointed to his eyes and smiled: "Why should Bo Yan be humble? Jun and Wolong are not only the same age, but also have the same talents, but they have always been wise and self-protective, and they are unknown, but they can't escape my discerning eyes. β
Lu Xun's eyes shrunk slightly, and he was silent, his background was different, and he had a lot of love and hatred with the Sun family, coupled with his special identity, how could he promote his reputation like other children of the family?
Over the years, he has been trembling and trembling, just to keep his family, and he doesn't want Liu Qi to be so important to him, and then he thinks of Wolong and Phoenix Chicks showing his talents, he can't help but secretly clench his fists, and he can't live up to Liu Qi's trust.
Zhou Tai came to the gate of the water village, looking at the rolling river, and his heart was surging, the young man he rescued at the risk of death, I don't know what the situation is now.
When he first heard about the changes in Ganlu Temple, Liu Qi took over Jiangdong, Zhou Tai expected that there must be a conspiracy, but Huang Gai personally went to Jiangdong, and after coming back, he convened the generals overnight to discuss the military, although the words flickered, but everyone could guess that the hidden situation was not good for the Sun family, if this matter was revealed to the world, Jiangdong's foundation would be destroyed in one fell swoop, and the civil and military generals would also be scattered, and nothing would be done.
For today's plan, only by following Liu Qi to rejuvenate the Han Dynasty can we keep this half of my life's work and become famous.
Zhou Tai sighed lightly and muttered, "If Zhongmou hadn't been rescued back then, what would the situation in Jiangdong be?" β
