For Liu Bei, he can be said to be a success and a failure, if there was no drama for him, Liu Bei would not have escaped from Xuchang at all, so there is also some gratitude in Liu Bei's heart.

But now, the foundation created by his voice was also destroyed because of Xi Yu, and his brother was also missing for this reason, and his life and death were unknown, Liu Bei was still full of hatred for Xi Yu.

All of this is like a closed loop of fate, what was owed from Xi Yu at the beginning, and now it is finally going to be doubled back to him.

At this time, the eastern sky had slowly begun to dawn, and the river was illuminated by torches as if it were daylight because of the armies of both sides.

Just when everyone thought that everything should develop slowly like this, suddenly a heavy fog rose on the originally clear surface of the river, and gradually the fog became thicker and thicker.

Looking at the dense fog gradually rising above the river, Zhou Yu also frowned tightly.

It stands to reason that such a thick fog will not rise on the surface of the Yangtze River this season, and it happens that fog will rise at this time node.

All this is really a little too strange, it seems that in the darkness, God hopes to let this troubled era end later, or that this great man really should not die, when the last flame of its life is not burned out, God will not let this dynasty that has been inherited for more than 400 years be extinct.

"Could it be that this big-eared thief really shouldn't be killed, and he really has God's help?"

Looking at the rising fog in front of him, Zhou Yu also frowned tightly and kept muttering,

After talking to himself for a while, Zhou Yu put this idea behind him, after all, in his opinion,

If there is really a destiny under this world, the destiny will be on the side of the drama and not on the side of the big-eared thief.

Subsequently, Zhou Yu ordered his fleet to intensify the attack, and at the same time ordered the entire river to be cordoned off to prevent the big-eared thieves from escaping in the chaos.

After all, the most important thing now is to capture Liu Bei alive.

Under Zhou Yu's command, the number of warships under Mi Zhu is also constantly decreasing, and the entire river is also blocked by Zhou Yu like an iron bucket, and it is simply impossible to take the opportunity to send people out.

Looking at the surrounding environment, Mi Zhu and Sun Qian also saw Zhou Yu's thoughts, and they also knew that it was impossible to send Liu Bei out now.

However, if you fight for your life and with the help of God, you may be able to create a trace of life.

Thinking of this, Sun Qian and Mi Zhu also glanced at each other, and both sides also knew what each other was thinking at the moment, so they nodded to each other, and there was a hint of determination in their eyes.

Immediately, Sun Qian smeared most of the ships with oil, and then led the warships coated with oil to rush towards Zhou Yu's fleet without looking back, as if he wanted to use this suicidal attack to open a life channel for Liu Bei to escape.

When Sun Qian led a large group of ships to fight for their lives, a small group of men and horses quickly left in another direction.

At this moment, the fleet of the building ships led by Sun Qian was completely covered by the fire, and the straight and hard ones rushed towards the fleet led by Zhou Yu, and while rushing towards the fleet led by Zhou Yu, the buildings and ships also let out shouts at the same time.

"Escort the lord first! Escort the lord to go first! ”

Looking at Liu Bei's fleet, which was burning with fire and constantly rushing in his direction, Zhou Yu frowned tightly, he knew that the other party was preparing to fight for his life, and it was estimated that he would suffer a lot of losses if he tried his best to block this kind of madman, so it was better to let them burn out by themselves.

Just as Zhou Yu was staring closely at the raging fire in front of him, a herald came to Zhou Yu's face.

"Report to the Governor of the Metropolis, we found that a small fleet of ships was fleeing towards the east of the river, and it is suspected that Liu Bei is among them."

Hearing the herald's report, Zhou Yu's first reaction was naturally not to believe it, after all, this east is the territory of the dramatist, and even if he Liu Bei is stupid, he will not fall into the net.

But after thinking about it for a while, he felt that this matter was actually not impossible, after all, now that the entire river had almost been blocked by himself, he Liu Bei could only flee to the west at this moment.

After thinking for a while, Zhou Yu decided to send a small group of soldiers to the east to chase after him.

At this time, the river was already full of fire, and the roar was mixed with the sound of weapons colliding, and countless people were constantly dying in battle, and in a place that no one noticed,

Under the cover of thick fog and fire, a small boat slowly broke away from the team led by Sun Gan, crossed the Yangtze River little by little, and headed for the west.

Although there are also opera artists guarding the river in the west at this moment, there is a thick fog on the river at this moment, and even if you have good eyesight, you can't see what is happening on the river.

Besides, no one would pay attention to a small flat boat at the moment.

At this moment, Zhang Fei and Wei Yan were driving the boat along the river bank little by little, fleeing in the direction of the west, because there was no wind and the speed of the boat was actually not very fast.

But when the east was just white, the originally calm sky was actually hanging an extremely violent east wind at this moment, and with the help of the east wind, the boat of Liu Bei and others quickly broke away from this place.

The dense fog above the river lasted until noon, and when the sun was shining in the sky, the surface of the river was slowly able to be seen a little more clearly.

The battle on the river is also slowly ending at this moment, and Zhou Yu is also dispatching soldiers to clean up the battlefield at the same time, be sure to capture the remaining surviving enemy soldiers, and search all places, even if it is a warship that has been burned to ashes, it must be carefully inspected to prevent Liu Bei from hiding in it.

Just when Zhou Yu's soldiers were inspecting the battlefield, the fleet sent by Zhou Yu and others to the east to chase also successfully defeated Liu Bei's fleet and returned victoriously.

As soon as he returned to the ship, the generals under Zhou Yu's command reported to Zhou Yu:

"Report to the Metropolitan Governor, this big-eared thief who fled east is a fake."

While speaking, the general ordered his corporal to bring the impostor Liu Bei up.

Looking at the fake Liu Bei in front of him, even if it was Zhou Yu, he couldn't help but be startled, Zhou Yu was really surprised, how could there be two people in this world who were so imaginable.

The figure and appearance of this person in front of him are already seven or eight points similar to Liu Bei, plus he is wearing Liu Bei's clothes, if you don't look carefully in ordinary times, it is still easy to recognize him as Liu Bei, let alone a foggy period like yesterday.

But when people go to watch it by themselves, they can still find that although this person is seven or eight points similar in appearance to Liu Bei, his temperament is completely different from Liu Bei.

"Who are you? Do you know where Liu Bei is now? ”

Especially when Zhou Yu asked him where Liu Bei went, the fake Liu Bei knelt down with a panicked face, trembling all over his body and begging for mercy.

"Adults spare their lives, adults spare their lives! The villain is just a pawn, I don't know anything, they forced me to do it! ”

Looking at the fake Liu Bei who was kneeling at his feet and begging for mercy, Zhou Yu shook his head slightly and knew that he couldn't ask any questions about this person, and with a wave of his hand, he asked his subordinates to take him away.

Although the men and horses of Liu Bei's side, who were burned to death by the fire yesterday, and the army under Zhou Yu's command also captured nearly 2,000 prisoners, the losses of Zhou Yu's side were also very small.

According to normal words, this battle can be said to be a complete victory.

But Zhou Yu knew that the most important thing in this battle was to capture Liu Bei, as long as Liu Bei was not successfully captured, their battle this time would not be considered successful.

Especially since this is the first battle after he entered the theater camp and became the Grand Duke,

In this first battle, he did not complete the set strategic goal, not to mention that he still had a complete advantage in this battle, but even this kind of situation was able to allow Liu Bei to escape.

Although the reason for not achieving the set goal this time is due to the impact of fog, it is ultimately disgraceful.

Sighing softly, Zhou Yu is no longer entangled, after all, what's the use of being entangled so much? It is better to return to the camp, train well, and wait for the next meritorious service.

After reorganizing the naval army, Zhou Yu led a small part of the light cavalry, and rushed towards Xiangyang City with a few more important prisoners.

At this time, with the entry of Huang Xu, Xiangyang City also slowly restored order.

Zhang Liaodianwei also led the army from Xinye into Xiangyang City.

When Zhang Liaodianwei and the others were stationed in Xinye, they were waiting for Xiangyang's request for help, but after waiting for a long time, the two did not wait for Xiangyang's letter for help.

Finally, the two of them couldn't bear it anymore and led the army to Xiangyang, only to find that the battle of Xiangyang at this moment had already ended.

Looking at Xiangyang City, which was gradually restoring order, the eyes of the two were full of deep helplessness.

It can be said that this time, the two of them led an army of 100,000 on a free sightseeing tour.

Looking at Xiangyang Chengdianwei's eyes, his eyes were filled with deep loss.

"Alas, I thought there would be a big battle today, but I never thought that this Liu Bei would be so vulnerable, just the army of the Hao clan would directly defeat him."

Dian Wei himself is belligerent, and staying in Xiapi City for a long time has made him very bored, and this time after his desperate request to fight, he finally got such a rare opportunity, but what he never expected was.

In this battle, although he came to the scene, he did not play a little use, and he did not even see what the enemy looked like, and he had already won the victory.

"Isn't this the strategy of Uncle Fengxiao and the Governor of Zhou, it can be said that this time our army took the entire Jingzhou without paying any price, especially Uncle Fengxiao's strategy, it is really poisonous, it is even more vicious than Lao Jia Xu."

Listening to Huang Xu's complaints, everyone present also laughed.

In fact, after entering Jingzhou, Huang Xu chatted with the patriarchs of several wealthy families in Jingzhou about the current situation.

First of all, this southern four counties of Jingzhou was originally the base of Liu Bei's final counterattack, and the people sent were also extremely loyal to Liu Bei, but they never expected that the wealthy families of the four counties of Jingnan would directly give Liu Bei a knife in the back, and the people arranged by Liu Bei either surrendered or were killed.

The second is the wealthy family of the three northern counties, the war against Liu Bei, the wealthy family of the three northern counties can be said to have contributed money and efforts, although it is said that it was a success to drive Liu Bei away, but because of the huge damage caused by the war.

As a result, the wealthy families of the three northern counties have suffered an extremely huge blow both in terms of economic strength and military strength.

The most important thing is that because of the war, the strength of the wealthy families has weakened, and it has also reduced the weight in their hands after they defected to the theater camp, and they cannot negotiate greater conditions with Xi Yu, which makes these wealthy families can only take the initiative to integrate into the theater.

Although it seems that a lot of effort has been spent on the incident, it is well worth it if you combine the governance after the war.

It can be said that in this war, this dramatist has gained the greatest benefit without paying anything.

Looking at Huang Xu in front of him, Dian Wei patted him on the shoulder with a face full of relief.

"The kid is good, it seems that he has grown up these days, I heard that you have captured Guan Yu."

Hearing Dian Wei's praise, Huang Xu did not have a trace of modesty, but said very proudly:

"That's natural, with the help of my father-in-law's tiger-headed gilt gun, even if I come to him with ten more Guan Yu, I will easily take it down!"

Seeing Huang Xu's arrogant appearance, everyone present burst out laughing and no one stopped him, after all, he was still a child, so what's wrong with being arrogant?

Just as everyone was laughing, a voice came from outside the door.

"What makes you generals laugh so happily?"

Hearing this voice, when I turned around, I saw Guo Jia walking into the house.

"Nothing happened, everyone was happy after winning the battle."

Seeing Guo Jia, Huang Xu also put away his smile, and after saying a casual word, he told Guo Jia in detail about the specific situation in Xiangyang today.

After all, Huang Xu still has some fear of Guo Jia in his heart, after all, a person who can come up with such a poisonous plan, the devil knows what he will do later.

And when Guo Jia heard that Huang Xu had captured Liu Bei alive, his eyes were also full of deep appreciation.

"Okay, good, it's really brave and invincible."

Hearing Guo Jia's appreciation, Huang Xu, who was already very proud, was even more arrogant at the moment, and the rocker couldn't help but straighten up.

After Huang Xu finished speaking, Guo Jia asked:

"Is the big-eared thief caught at this moment?"

After all, in this strategic goal, it is a very important purpose to capture Liu Bei alive.

"According to Kuai Liang and others, under the cover of Guan Yu, Liu Bei fled along the Han River towards Jiangling, but don't worry, there is a Zhou Governor guarding the Jiangling side, even if he Liu Bei has the ability to turn the sky, he can't escape."

Although Liu Bei was not captured, Huang Xu's expression was very relaxed.

After all, a small Liu Bei, under the hands of Zhou Yu's tens of thousands of troops, must not be able to escape, and everyone present also thinks so.

But when Zhou Yu entered this hall, the first thing he said was that everyone present was stunned.

"The big-eared thief has escaped, and now he is gone."

Hearing what Zhou Yu said, the faces of everyone present showed disbelief, the main thing is that no one can believe this kind of thing.

So in the puzzled eyes of everyone, Zhou Yu sighed lightly and told everyone present everything that happened yesterday.

Hearing that there was a fog on the river for no reason, the faces of everyone present showed expressions of extreme surprise, this kind of thing is really too magical.

"Could it be that this big-eared thief really shouldn't be killed?"

Shaking his head slightly, Dian Wei couldn't help but sigh, in fact, Dian Wei didn't believe in this kind of thing at first.

But after seeing that Zhou Yu's expression didn't look like he was lying, Dian Wei still believed it.

"It's okay to do this, since this Liu Bei really shouldn't die, then let him go."

After sighing lightly, Guo Jia also comforted Zhou Yu.

"Now that the general trend of Jingzhou has been decided, even if the big-eared thief escapes from the encirclement, he can't bring two people with him, and now he doesn't have any territory, even if he wants to stir up any storms, it is impossible."

"So this big-eared thief is gone, there is always a chance to capture him in the future, and now this specific matter is reported to the main bus and decided by the lord."

Nodding slightly, everyone also felt that what Guo Jia said made sense.

After discussing it again, everyone also decided who would hold tonight's celebration banquet, and it was also decided that all the patriarchs of the Hao clan who had made great efforts would be invited to this celebration banquet.

After some discussion, everyone slowly dispersed, but Zhou Yu gently grabbed the corner of Guo Jia's clothes.

"Fengxiao, although Jingzhou has been decided now, Liu Qi is still"

Gently stopped Zhou Yu, Guo Jia looked around.

He naturally knew what Zhou Yu meant, after all, Liu Qi, who was lying on the bed and half paralyzed, was still the Jingzhou Mu of the Han Dynasty.

With such a bright hat on Liu Qi's head, Zhou Yu and the others are not good at treating him, if the issue of this Liu Qi is not dealt with, it will definitely be a disaster in the future.

What annoyed Guo Jia and the others the most was that this Liu Bei said that you can go, and you will leave after you have dealt with the matter.

But this Liu Bei hadn't dealt with the matter before leaving, leaving such a half-dead but unmanageable scourge here.

This makes Guo Jia and others hold such a powder keg that may explode at any time in their hands, and it is not impossible to throw it away.

"Let's go see first." (End of chapter)
