Although Tai Shi Ci treated the book coldly, he couldn't stand Long Xiang's combination of fists.

Two days later, a small boat sailed from the upper reaches of the Yangtze River to Liyang.

The person who came claimed to be Sun Ben's personal soldier, dictated Sun Quan's order on behalf of Sun Ben, and said that Sun Quan broke Huang Zu in Jiangxia, and asked Tai Shici to lead the troops to Shouchun first, leading Zhang Liao's defenders out of the city, and Sun Quan would come with the power of victory.

Tai Shi Ci couldn't help but be stunned after hearing this, he wanted to ask the reason carefully, but the pro-soldier was very arrogant, saying that he was just acting on orders, and he had his own plans after Sun Quan and Zhou Yu arrived.

Xiao Bing had an expression of no one in his eyes, and he was so angry that Tai Shi Ci clenched his fists as tightly as iron.

Seeing this, Zhao Fan hurriedly took over the conversation, said a lot of kind words to the herald soldier, prepared to entertain him with wine and food, and then talked from the other party.

Unexpectedly, the little soldier didn't enter, so he left a few cruel words and walked straight out of the house, and Zhao Fan hurriedly chased him out to see him off.

At dusk, Zhao Fan returned from outside the city.

I saw that the hall was in a mess, with bamboo slips, wine glasses and other things scattered everywhere on the ground, and Tai Shici was lying on the soft seat behind the desk.

"General?"

Zhao Fan hurriedly stepped forward to investigate, mistakenly thinking that Tai Shi Ci was drunk and drunk, but when he got closer, he found that the other party's eyes were wide open, looking at the roof and not knowing what he was thinking.

"General Ziyi?"

"Bo Chang is back, what about the arrogant horseman?"

When Zhao Fan called for the second time, Tai Shici came back to his senses and sat up, and asked the whereabouts of 'Sun Ben's personal soldiers'.

"He insisted on going to the dock to take a boat, emphasizing that he rushed back to Yuzhang overnight to resume his life, and I sent him to the Yangtze River wharf in the east of the city, and only came back when I saw the boat go away."

"Sun Boyang's personal soldiers, hum"

With a crisp snap, Tai Shici slapped his palm on the table, gritted his teeth and said: "Sun Bo Fu Shang treats me very politely, and I also helped Sun Boyang to resist Liu Xun in Peng Li, he actually sent a pawn to humiliate me, how can this really be true!" ”

"The General's Caution"

Zhao Fan glanced outside the door, and saw that there was no one around, and reminded in a low voice: "Sun Taishou has always been steady, although his temper is really hot, but he will not have a bad relationship with the general, he should have detained the person just now, maybe he was done elsewhere, why didn't the general stop it."

"On what grounds do I stop? What if he is really Sun Ben's own soldier? It is still far-fetched to say that he is meticulous, after all, the lower reaches of the Yangtze River are controlled by our army, even if Huang Zu breaks through our blockade, he should not send someone to take a boat to entertain me, Huainan has nothing to do with the Jiangxia battlefield." Tai Shi Ci shook his head slightly.

"The general has a point." Zhao Fan nodded in agreement, and then asked: "Since the person who came is not a fine worker, what will be the order he dictated?" ”

"I don't know," Tai Shici shook his head and sighed.

Zhao Fan stood aside and thought, and suddenly a bold idea popped up.

"Last year, the Dadu Governor besieged Wei to save Zhao Ji, which led to Nanchang City being broken by Huang Zu first, and Sun Taishou fled to Luling for refuge in panic, if we are still stationed in Haidu, then Huang Zu may not dare to try Yu Zhang, will he deliberately fake military orders because of his hatred for us"

"Hate us? Categorically not. ”

Tai Shi Ci waved his hand categorically: "The order to adjust the defense was given by the lord, the lord did not replenish the defenders to Yuzhang, and Sun Boyang himself was not strictly fortified, how can he blame me?" But after all, Sun Ben is the patriarch of the Sun clan, so he shouldn't fake the military order, and I'm worried that there are villains in Jiangdong."

"How?"

"Sun Bofu has killed too much, although he has been assassinated and killed now, the enemy may not be relieved, if someone makes waves, we will suffer unjustified disasters."

Zhao Fan affirmed: "The general is right, it is risky to send troops, although there are not many garrisons in Shouchun, but we only have a few thousand soldiers and horses, and we have to fight in the field, if Zhang Liao holds the city, we have no chance of winning, and we have to consider grain and grass in a protracted war."

"If the lord really breaks Huang Zu and rushes straight to Shouchun with the power of victory, it is very likely to avenge last year's revenge, I am afraid that this order is true" Tai Shi Ciyan said with a serious face.

Zhao Fan sighed: "Dilemma"

Tai Shi Ci tapped the table with his hand, stood up solemnly after thinking for a long time, and instructed Zhao Fan: "Don't believe that order, but don't believe it all, there are Lao Bo often rush to Jiangxia to verify, if the lord really intends to take Shouchun, I will not be too late to send troops."

Zhao Fan nodded in response: "This is indeed safe, the last general will leave early tomorrow morning, I am worried that Sun Ben will do at his behest, and the main guild will blame the general for delaying the military plane."

"It's okay, safety first, I'll admit to blaming me."

Tai Shi Ciyan looked out of the door, the twilight was like his own situation, guarding the land of Liyang projectile, and there was no bright future at all.

Zhao Fan said no more, and was ordered to rush to Jiangxia in the early morning of the next day.

There was no big ship in Liyang, so Zhao Fan could only take the boat to break the waves and go west.

The sailors swung the oars against the current, but fortunately, this section of the river was wide and not urgent, and the hull of the boat was small and light, and the speed was much faster than that of the big warship, and the water journey reached Peng Lize (Poyang Lake) in two days.

In summer, the days are long and the nights are short, and the sun sinks to the horizon.

Night fell an hour later, but the boatmen had been rocking for more than seven hours, and they had to rest and recharge their energy after a tiring day.

As long as you maintain the same speed for another two days, you will be able to reach the battlefield of Shaxian as planned.

After eating dry food for two days, Zhao Fan suddenly wanted to taste some meat, so he called his entourage to fish in the river, planning to catch a few fresh fish from local materials.

A few people had just finished their fishing rods and were looking for bait on the shore, when suddenly the sailors on the boat exclaimed.

"Look, ships, there are so many ships."

Zhao Fan heard a stirring spirit, and hurriedly got up and raised his eyes to look, only to see the warships in the west lined up, like a hill moving in the center of the river.

The entourage hurriedly reminded: "Such a huge fleet, it must be the lord and the Grand Duke, they should also dock to rest, we don't have to rush to Shaxian again, let the sailors catch up now?" ”

"Well, this fish is no longer fishing, all of them are on board."

"Yui."

Waiting for the sailor to take the anchor and push the ship offshore, Zhao Fan suddenly gave a strange order.

"Turn the ship around immediately, and let's return to Liyang overnight."

"Huh? General Zhao, you are"

"Seeing the fleet is like seeing the lord, it seems that he really wants to fight Shouchun, let's take advantage of the fleet's rest, rush back to Liyang to report the news, and let General Ziyi send troops quickly, so as not to be held accountable in the future."

"I see, but everyone is rocking for a day, and they have to sail at night"

"You forgot that the return trip was smooth? Now divide the sailors into two teams, and we rush back day and night. ”

"Yui."

Because the target of the boat is small, it turned around and was not discovered by the western fleet, but the mantis cicada catcher yellow finch was behind.

Behind the boat there was a smaller fishing boat in the distance, which was the group sent by Liu Fu to pretend to be fake soldiers, and they were holding clairvoyant mirrors and followed them all the way to Peng Lize.

It was discovered that Zhao Fan's ship was turning the rudder, and Liu Fu's people also followed the rudder, and they wanted to pass the news back to Fei, and the fleet seen through the clairological mirror showed that the battle of Jiangxia was over.

Long Xiang was engaged in wind and rain in Huainan, and this military situation was very useful for reference.

In fact, the outcome of the Battle of Jiangxia was different from what Zhao Fan and the trackers thought.

Sun Quan and Zhou Yu were almost about to break the city, but news came from the rear of Jiangdong one after another, and Shanyue in Yuzhang, Danyang, Huiji and other places were in chaos at the same time as agreed.
