Zhao Yun set foot in Jiangdong for the first time and had never experienced a water war before.

Liu Ye reminded Huang Zu to pay attention to Sun Quan's reinforcements, and Zhao Yun also made a retreat plan according to Liu Bei's instructions.

Huang Zu's blitzkrieg attack on Nanchang was unsuccessful, bringing great variables to the rest of the war.

The main force of Jingzhou was concentrated outside the city of Nanchang, and Chaisang and Haiduan left thousands of defenders, Zhao Yun was worried that the Jiangdong reinforcements would not save Nanchang, so he turned to attack Chaisang and Haiduan to let Huang Zu divide his troops, and each defeat would make the battle passive.

Half of the warships brought by Huang Zu docked in Chaisang Water Village, half docked at Ganshui next to Nanchang, and Haiyang was the granary of the army.

Whether Chaisang or Haiduan is lost, it will affect the morale of the soldiers ahead.

Zhao Yun didn't care about whether he conquered Nanchang or not, his task was to bring Liu Ye back safely.

In addition to taking the water route in the retreat plan, Zhao Yun also picked a long-lasting land route, that is, from the route of Liu Pan's invasion of Yuzhang, entered Changsha County in the opposite direction, and then took a boat detour back to Xiangyang.

The time taken on land is several times that of the waterway, but Zhao Yun is a rider who is used to using war horses, and he feels more down-to-earth about war horses and land routes than taking the waterway by boat.

Zhao Yun didn't have the confidence to control things outside of his profession, so during his stationing in Haidu, he sent a number of scouts to explore the way and go through the retreat route in advance.

On the day that Deng Long came to ask for advice, Zhao Yun's first group of sentinels returned from Jianchang and reported in detail the terrain of this mountain road, where the terrain was dangerous and difficult to walk, and where the place was wide and could be camped at night.

After Zhao Yun and Liu Ye discussed Gan Ning, they suddenly remembered that when they had just defeated Chaisang, Liu Ye had sent someone to Hefei by boat, thinking that if he encountered Jiangdong reinforcements during the return journey, or if Chaisang was captured by Jiangdong reinforcements, wouldn't he be able to come back and recover his life?

In case he is unfortunately captured by Sun Quan's people, there is a risk that the information on his body may be exposed.

Thinking of this, Zhao Yun hurriedly reminded Liu Ye: "Sir, you are sure that Jiangdong reinforcements are coming, what about the messenger sent to Hefei?" I heard that the navy in Jiangdong is relatively powerful, and there should be patrol boats on the Yangtze River, and you may encounter danger when you go back and forth."

"Haha, Zilong can rest assured." Liu Ye smiled and comforted: "Someone in Hefei is on the river to answer, if he really can't come back, he is equivalent to returning to his hometown, General Long will find a way to contact us again, as long as the situation in Jingzhou is passed over, so that the family can rest assured." ”

Hearing that the scouts did not need to return, Zhao Yunxin said that the risk of exposure would be greatly reduced, and now he only hoped that the trip would be smoother, after all, he was accompanied by Huang Zu's reconnaissance ship.

Zhao Yun didn't know that the only navy in Hefei was in charge of Liu Ye's nephew Liu Fu.

After Tai Shici was stationed in Liyang, Hefei's reconnaissance fishing boats were still operating in Chaohu Lake, Weixushui, and the Yangtze River, but they were more like fishermen.

Every time they go out on the boat, they try to ensure that they catch fish, so that they can hide from the world and the sea under Tai Shici's nose.

Soon after Tai Shici arrived in Liyang, Long Xiang took the initiative to write a letter to him, in which he talked about his friendship with Sun Quan and said that the two sides would help each other as neighbors.

As the saying goes, stretch out your hand and don't hit the smiling person, although Hefei is a potential threat to Jiangdong, Long Xiang took the initiative to show friendliness, and Tai Shici had to show due courtesy.

In addition, Hefei and Wujun had frequent trade, and there were often merchant ships coming and going in the waters of Chaohu Lake and Misu, so Tai Shici did not include fishing boats as a target of suspicion.

Due to Liu Ye's fast movements, the people he sent to report his safety were before Jiangdong noticed it, when the Yangtze River was relatively calm, and he also successfully met Liu Fu's people.

Regarding the intelligence of Liu Ye and Jingzhou, Liu Fu personally rushed to the main bookkeeper's mansion to report to Lu Su.

Recently, Qiao Wei is about to give birth to a full-term month, and Long Xiang handed over the military and political affairs of the old and new cities of Hefei to Lu Su to be responsible, and concentrated on walking and chatting with Qiao Wei at home.

Hua Tuo estimated that Qiao Wei would give birth at the end of the month, and Lu Su had just entered the second half of the month after receiving information from Liu Ye.

He originally wanted to wait for the child to be born before going to find Long Xiang, but considering that Jingzhou made such a big move, there must be new movements in Jiangdong, so he still came to the door hard.

Long Xiang didn't listen to anything outside the window, but Lu Su basically didn't look for him if he could handle it, and there must be quite something important when he came to ask for a meeting.

When I came to the main hall of the vestibule, I saw two baskets of things beside Lu Su, and when I got closer, I found that one basket was full of eggs, roughly estimated to be hundreds, and the other basket was jujube produced in season.

Eggs and red dates are all foods suitable for maternal recovery, and Chen's originally had some people prepare, but Lu Su's gift seemed to be overstocked.

Red dates can be stored for a long time, but the shelf life of eggs is not so long, and there is no electricity or refrigerator in this era, so Long Xiang frowned.

"Zijing, what gifts do you bring with you when you come back? Also this egg. It's just too much."

"Mrs. Qiao can use it after giving birth, I don't think this is enough, eat a few more meals and eat it quickly, and there are two pregnant women in Yunqi's family."

Long Xiang shook his head after hearing this: "No matter how delicious things are, you will get tired of eating them every meal, and besides, the second miss is still early, it should be until tomorrow spring, my kitchen has prepared a lot, and you will take it back to cook it for your sister-in-law, she should have two months." ”

"How can I bring this gift back by myself?"

Lu Su hurriedly stretched out his hand to refuse, and then encouraged Long Xiang and said: "Yunqi is especially good at making food, what is a few hundred eggs?" If you can't make them all into preserved eggs? If Mrs. Qiao is tired of eating, let the kitchen change the tricks, and it will definitely not be broken. ”

"Alas Eggs"

Long Xiangxin said that eggs can be made into preserved eggs, but the stability and quality are far inferior to duck eggs, and salted eggs may also be stored for a few days, but these may not be suitable for mothers, especially after Qiao Wan became pregnant.

Pancake fruit?

These four words suddenly jumped into Long Xiang's mind, and he said that this thing consumes a lot of eggs, and it can be used as both a snack and a staple food, and it is almost impossible to make, only a stove and a metal disc for pancakes.

Long Xiang is good at pasta, and he felt that it was time to invent another food, and design the stove underneath to be able to grill sacs, grill meat, bake cakes, and then serve new meat and buns.

The second lady has a mouthful.

Long Xiang glanced at the egg basket, then a set of pancakes and fruits.

"Zijing suddenly came to the door, could it be something important?"

"Well, in order to avenge his old revenge, Huang Zu suddenly sent troops to Yuzhang a few days ago, Sun Ben should be very dangerous."

"Not long after Shi Ci arrived in Liyang, this Huang Zu is really good at picking the time, but Jiang Xia was defeated a few years ago, and it is said that Huang Zu's warships are not enough at all."

"Although Jiangxia is short of warships, don't forget that Huang Zu has his back against Jingzhou."

"Liu Biao allocated a warship to Huang Zu?"

"Hehe, not only did he transfer warships, but he also sent Liu Panbing out of Changsha at the same time, and sent Liu Ziyang to Huang Zujun to counsel military affairs."

"Ziyang?"

After just a few words of conversation with Lu Su, Long Xiang swallowed three times in a row, and this information became more and more intense.
