Lu Su now deeply feels that the ship in Jiangdong has become more and more difficult.

Lü Meng's 20,000 men had no effect on the overall situation, but it itself represented a subtle change in the attitude of the lord.

Instead of gathering troops in the wet beard, he chose the opportunity to march north, but Jiangxia increased his troops, and Lü Meng's actions were mostly not controlled by himself......

If you think about it from the perspective of comforting yourself, it may be that the lord was tempted by this short-sighted Lu Meng.

If you think about it from the most serious point of view......

Shaking his head, it is useless to think about these things at this time, so he can only send a letter to the lord to inquire first, and then wait for Lu Meng to deal with him before making plans.

After having a preliminary idea in his heart, Lu Su stopped looking at the giant ship and went down the city wall.

Spreading out a piece of Sun Hou paper, Lu Su's heart moved, and he took out the letter that Kong Ming had written with him a few days ago.

Kong Ming's letter has always been simple, this time he complained to him about the thorniness of the barbarians in Nanzhong, and at the same time, he had no intention of mentioning that there was a talented person named Lu Yi in Jiangdong, and asked him what Lu Su's opinion was.

When the letter was taken out again, Lu Su also thought about who Lu Yi was, and finally figured out a figure with a thin sense of existence in his mind.

What can be an idea of this? Not cooked at all.

And Kong Mingyuan is in Yizhou, how did he learn this name?

However, this is mainly the difference between the comparison paper.

After rubbing it in his hand, approaching the light to observe, tearing open the paper, and burning half a page to see its ashes, Lu Su breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, the paper used by Kong Ming is similar to Sun Hou's paper.

As far as Lu Su knows, Jiangdong is already trying to improve this Sun Hou paper, and it seems that Jiangling Engineering is not omnipotent.

Relieved, Lu Su immediately buried his head in writing a letter with Sun Quan, and when he looked up again, it was already the beginning of the moon, and Bu Qi didn't know when he was already standing aside.

Stretching his waist and sealing the long letter that had been written, Lu Su stuffed it into Bu Qi's hand:

"Hurry up and send it to the lord."

In the letter, Lu Su had done his best to explain the pros and cons, and only asked the lord to take the opportunity to send troops to Hefei.

Sighing, Lu Su looked up at the faint moon, and for the first time felt that he was lacking in skills.

I want to go down the river and tell the lord the pros and cons in person, but I am afraid that Lu Meng will poke out some basket here after he leaves.

At this time, Lu Su was quite envious of Kong Ming.

However, thinking of Kong Ming, Lu Su suddenly remembered that the previous time Kong Ming said in his letter that there was neither a moon palace nor a Chang'e jade rabbit on the moon.

Lu Su couldn't understand: where did Kong Ming get so many strange ideas?

Lu Zijing was looking at the moon and sighing, Zhao Ah was working in full swing with the moonlight and torches, and the entire west bank of Hanshui was full of people.

Huang Zhong's Cao army scouts, who were stationed in Dangyang and relied on one-handed archery, did not dare to approach, and since last year, Huang Zhong has been ordered by Guan Yu to build a dock on the bank of the Han River in the east of Dangyang City.

The naval army from Jiangling anchored here, and Zhao Lei supervised the construction of the military camp and stacked the grain and grass baggage.

Guan Yu and Xu Shu unified resources in Jiangling, and only waited for the time to raise troops for the Northern Expedition.

"You said that we burned so many torches here, didn't Cao Jun in the north know?"

Zhao A was quite puzzled, judging from his shallow fighting experience, pretending to be a grandson first and then stealing Leng Zi was the most effective way.

Why is it still fanfare now, for fear that the other side will not know?

Scratching his head, if he can't figure it out, he doesn't want to think about it for the time being, maybe General Guan has his own reason.

"Ji Chang thinks we can attack Yicheng?"

Zhao Lei and Ma Liang looked north at a high place, and they naturally couldn't see Yicheng two hundred miles away, but it didn't prevent Zhao Lei and Ma Liang from being proud.

And Yicheng is also Ma Liang's hometown, when he thinks of his hometown, he thinks of his brother, and he shook his head and says Ma Liang is very sincere:

"General Guan doesn't fight the reason about the general."

"But I can speculate."

Zhao Lei became interested: "Tell me? ”

There is no need to recall carefully, a detailed map is already presented in Maleonn's mind.

After all, after copying and copying so many times in a row, the map on the light curtain has almost been engraved into Ma Liang's head.

Therefore, for the situation in Jingxiang, combined with the analysis of the light curtain, Ma Liang naturally saw it quite clearly:

"Kefan City, then Xiangyang and Yicheng do not need to spend a single soldier to go down."

"On the contrary, if Fancheng is not allowed, even if Xiangyang Yicheng is captured, it will be difficult to last."

"And the most important thing is that Xiangfan is a waterless master."

Zhao Lei nodded, followed Guan Yu for a long time, and Zhao Lei knew more about it: Why does Xiangfan have no water master? Because they were all burned down in Chibi.

At the beginning, Cao Cao led Wei to the south, and after attacking Jingzhou, he received the Jingzhou Naval Division, and ordered Yu Ban to build ships in the north of Wancheng, and then went south along the Shushui River into the Hanshui River, and then went east to Chibi and suffered a great defeat.

In a sense, there is nothing wrong with Cao Cao's burning of the ship, and nine times out of ten it is not his own ship, so naturally there is nothing to feel sorry for.

After the Jingzhou sailors were hoarded, the new sailors trained by Cao Cao were in the vortex in the north, and the advantage of this river was that the Yellow River and the Huai River could go to it, and it could radiate to most of the river basins in the north.

The disadvantage is that if this sailor wants to come to Xiangfan, he needs to go to Hefei first, after penetrating the mouth of the wet beard in Jiangdong, and then go all the way up along the Yangtze River, and then penetrate the Jiangxia City in Jiangdong, and enter the Han River to come over, which is basically impossible.

Therefore, Guan Yu Xu Shu's plan at the beginning was to make the biggest noise, and after attracting everyone's attention, he echoed Zhang Feipang Tong in Hanzhong, looking for a fighter that could win more with less.

As for Jiangdong, Guan Yu and Xu Shu's thoughts are the same: be good, don't make a mess, go to Hefei to go to Qingqing.

Of course, Dangyang's movement was also noticed by Le Jin, as a general of the defeated army, of course, the first posture must be sufficient.

The knife does not leave the hand, the armor does not let go, the pillow waits, and the night patrol the city, all of which must be done.

But at the same time, Lejin is also weighing: should you give up Xiangyang and withdraw to Fancheng? After all, this Guan Yu's sailor is too dazzling.

And the most important thing is, of course, only one thing:

Help!!!

The news was sent to Fancheng, and then several horsemen rushed out of Fancheng, bringing the news of Liu Bei's attack to Xinye, Zhong'an, and Wancheng along the way, so that they could strengthen the city defense.

Immediately, he didn't enter, and tried to send the news to Yecheng as soon as possible to present it to Prime Minister Cao Cheng.

When the news of Liu Beibei's crime was sent to Wancheng, Hou Yin and Wei Kai, who were kneeling and drinking tea on the second floor of the teahouse, looked pale, and the two of them had other thoughts together, and they no longer had the interest in drinking tea.

And Cao Cao's mood was not very beautiful when he received the news.

"Take the initiative to commit crimes, don't you want to die?"

He will never lose the battle in his mouth, but his heart is slightly tight.

In the thirteenth year of Jian'an, Chibi was defeated, and in the fourteenth year of Zhannan County, there was little grain and grass left, and it took fifteen years to recuperate before saving some grain and grass.

As a result, last year, we were full of ambition and forced to oppose Yongliang, almost from April to November, and the grain and grass were in urgent need again.

Therefore, after learning the news of Liu Bei's capture of Hanzhong in February, Cao Cao also stubbornly suppressed his anger.

If you don't press it, there is nothing you can do, it is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice, and it is difficult for the prime minister to produce soldiers without food.

And if he withdrew to Xiahou Yuan in Guanzhong, wouldn't he be a wedding dress with Liu Bei? Even more unacceptable.

So the original plan was to wait until the first wave of new grain harvest in July before marching out, but now the deployment has been completely disrupted.

Xun You lowered his eyebrows and did not comment on the Prime Minister's majestic words, but just proposed:

"Liu Bei has attacked Yizhou and Hanzhong, then Jingzhou must be a partial division, and now he takes the initiative to go north, he must have nothing to fear."

Cao Cao nodded, gradually clearing his thoughts:

"The one who relied on it was none other than the newly created sailor of that year."

With a sneer, Cao Cao put his heart back in his stomach:

"Mingwen led the three armies to enter Fancheng, and ordered Wenqian to defend Xiangyang to echo each other, and he must not take half a step back."

Fifteen thousand people, this is already the remaining grain and grass can support the soldiers and horses.

The two transfers were blameless, Xun You nodded, took the initiative to write the warrant, and at the same time thought in his heart, it seems that the loss of Lejin's previous people and horses was still evil to the prime minister, otherwise there would not be this order alone.

The shortcomings of the two cities of Xiangfan without water, Xun You is naturally also a door, but neither he nor the prime minister think that this is a problem.

After all, the two cities of Xiangfan, the city is strong and the pond is deep, how can the sailors still drive a boat to attack the city?

After making a response, Cao Cao also put his heart back in his stomach temporarily, so it seems that this battle is just the expansion of Liu Bei's mentality after swallowing the two places, and he has nothing to lose.

When he was planning in his heart where else to squeeze out a little grain and grass, a personal guard sent a second message.

After Xun You wrote the warrant, he took the initiative to take it and open it, and his eyes widened when he boarded.

"Gongda, what's the matter?"

Xun You didn't speak, but handed over the silk cloth with the message written on it:

"Prime Minister, please take a look."

Cao Cao took a look at it, and scolded loudly:

"Good thief, Xu Du still thinks that I will not kill you if I cherish my talents?!"

But then the anger quickly subsided, and turned into a deep sigh:

"Cloud ......"

The message on the silk cloth in his hand is simple:

Liu Beijun came to beg for thieves, and the leader was Guan Yu, who accompanied the army Xu Shu.

Xun You could understand the lord's mood very well, so he didn't speak.

And Cao Cao took two turns indoors, and soon made up his mind:

"Since Yun Chang is leading the troops, Xiangfan is afraid that there will be changes, so I should move to Xu Du to supervise the battle!"

This order is more normal, after all, Yecheng is too far away, and now that the rebellion at the beginning of the year has been quelled, the lord has nothing to do while staying here.

However, Xun You is very suspicious, and when the time comes, I am afraid that no matter whether the battle situation is better or worse, the lord may have to take the opportunity to go to the front line.

And even if there was no such thing, Xun Yu originally planned to suggest that the lord go to Xu Du to shake his majesty.

After all, the last time Xu Shu fled, it seemed that many people had thoughts that they shouldn't have again, which made Xun Yu quite big.

And what makes Xun You's head even bigger is his ambiguous attitude of the uncle who has "Wang Zuozhicai".

I hope that the lord Xu Du and his entourage can make the uncle sober up, Xun You sighed in his heart.

In Jingxiang, things are much simpler for Guan Yu.

After the baggage transportation came to an end, enough to support a wave of offensives, Guan Yu and Xu Shu also moved from Jiangling to Dangyang.

And with Guan Yu, who was dressed in military uniform and holding a glaive knife, ordered.

The Han water sailor was opened, and Huang Zhong of Yangcheng was in charge.

Land and water go hand in hand, straight to Xiangfan.
