Chapter 69 Huang Zhong's Harvest

After Huang Zhong beat Cao Hong up, he hid in Xiangyang under Cai Mao's arrangement. His family is here, so it is also a good thing to be able to reunite with his family.

After he arrived in Xiangyang, Zhao Yan immediately came to visit him in person.

The prefect Zhang Ling, who is best at mediating the relationship between the generals among the Cao army, has no idea about the governor and guardian to praise Huang Zhong for his heroic spirit, claiming that he had heard of Huang Zhong's reputation back then.

He praised Huang Zhongzhi and praised him very much, and he also admired Zhao Yan very much. So Zhao Yan took the opportunity to ask Huang Zhong to lead the army and wipe out the Wu army sailors who had been active on the Han River.

When Huang Zhong was under Liu Pan's command, he had many confrontations with the Wu army's Taishi Ci army. The two sides did not decide the outcome, and there were many casualties and injuries, which led to deep grudges.

Huang Zhong had a good impression of Guan Ping and knew that the Sun and Liu families were in alliance now, but he was unwilling to miss the opportunity to beat Wu Jun.

Anyway, I can't get any large-scale battles, so it's okay to fight casually.

So Zhao Yan assigned Huang Zhong a naval army composed of all Jingzhou people, and commanded Huang Zhong to attack south.

This move was firmly opposed by Xu Huang and Le Jin. They believed that Huang Zhong was a descendant general in Liu Biao and was rebellious, so how could he let him lead the army?

But Zhao Yan was not afraid. He sent someone to monitor Huang Zhong's family. If Huang Zhong had the intention of rebelling, he would immediately kill all his family, not afraid that Huang Zhong would refuse to fight.

Huang Zhong's performance was also very good. He took a boat south and soon started a battle with the Lu Yi's navy. Under Huang Zhong's command, the Jingzhou army burst out with a long-awaited combat power. Lu Yi also knew that the enemy was extremely strong this time and could only fight and retreat to preserve its strength.

On the day Guan Ping returned to Xiangyang, Le Jin and Xu Huang discussed the issue of sending troops with Zhao Yan in Jiangbei. They unanimously believed that the Sun and Liu coalition forces were insufficient in the defense of the Han River. If they could continue to maintain their offensive on the Han River, they would definitely restrain Sun and Liu's troops. Therefore, Zhao Yan ordered Huang Zhong to send troops again, and this time there must be a large number of gains, posing a threat to Xiakou.

Huang Zhong was speechless. He wanted to escape on the spot, but then he realized that his family had been controlled by Zhao Yan, and then he realized that he had been trapped.

He wanted to chop Zhao Yan on the spot, but after weighing the pros and cons, he could only agree to lead the army and fight again.

Huang Zhong's morale was not high this time. He originally wanted to take a walk and sneak back on an excuse, but he never expected that there was no Wu army stopping the road and he drove smoothly to the vicinity of Jingcheng.

Here, Huang Zhong finally found a huge enemy ship parked by the river.

It was a huge tower ship, with three layers of huge ships, each with female walls, three huge masts towering, and flags and guns were all surrounded by a thick layer of leather, like a huge island. The strength of the shipbuilding technology and the exquisite material use are enough to show that the people on the ship are noble.

Huang Zhong was shocked and subconsciously wanted to retreat - according to common sense, such an important nobleman from Wu Jun would definitely not be less prepared. Thinking of Zhao Yan's previous saying that Zhou Yu might be nearby, Huang Zhong felt more and more dangerous here.

But after a little observation, he found that there were only a few ordinary small boats around the huge tower ship, and even lacked other warships with guards.

Is it a trap?

Huang Zhong fell into deep thought for a moment and did not dare to launch an attack.

Even if he was beaten to death, he didn't expect that Sun Quan was looking for an immortal.

This is where Guan Ping discovered that the magic weapon killed Cao Chun before. Sun Quan firmly believed that there was a secret that led to a thousand years later in the river, and he had been lingering here for the past few days and refused to leave.

Although Lu Gong had told Sun Quan that the general attack of Cao's army was about to begin, Sun Quan believed that delaying for another three or four days should not be a big problem, so he took the initiative to say that he led his subordinates to let others go back to Xiakou to stand by - just like his famous battle in history.

Lu Zheng had received a large number of arrows sent by Guan Ping before, so he had to transport them to Xiakou quickly. Seeing that Sun Quan had his own ideas, he dared not force him, so he could only lead his army to leave first. And it was this short gap that Huang Zhong arrived!

Chen Wu, who was in charge of guarding Sun Quan, was not surprised to find that Cao's warship appeared.

He saw that the enemy's fleet was not large in size, but it spread evenly on the river surface and did not have a sharp attacking posture. It was obvious that the enemy was either the Cao army, the Northern Army, which was not good at water battles, or the Jingzhou army, which was unwilling to fight hard.

Chen Wu calmly reported the arrival of the enemy to Sun Quan, and Sun Quan could only reluctantly leave his holy place of seeking immortals and prepare to set sail and return to Xiakou.

The Cao army's sailors had never dared to pursue the country after fighting with the Land Constitution. The navy was only a few thousand people. Could it be that they would dare to chase them to Xiakou and die?

If Sun Quan did not leave, Huang Zhong would not dare to launch an attack for the moment, but he set sail to escape. Huang Zhong immediately judged that the enemy was not prepared. He was still hesitating whether to chase after him, and suddenly saw an extremely amazing scene.

I saw that the huge tower ship suddenly shaking violently after walking a few steps, and Sun Quan's tower ship was actually stranded!

That's right, Sun Quan had been searching for the gates by the river that could enter a thousand years later. The tower ship had been stopped by the river for several days, and he had not noticed that the Han River was getting shallower in the middle of winter. Now that the strong enemy has arrived, Chen Wu urged to drive the ship, and they forced to move, and they actually pierced on the ground.

Huang Zhong was stunned by the sight.

He stood there and thought for a long time, and saw that everyone on the boat was busy and screaming, so he determined that the enemy was not pretending.

"Okay, God helps me, since I'm here, don't leave!"

Huang Zhong shouted loudly and waved the order flag immediately. The Jingzhou army under his command also knew that he had encountered a big fish this time, so he immediately launched a fierce attack on Sun Quan on the ship.

Sun Quan was really stunned on the spot this time.

He never thought that the enemy would come so quickly, nor did he expect that his experienced navy army would make such a mistake at this critical moment.

Seeing the enemy rushing from all directions, Sun Quan showed the courage to fight to the death.

He stood at the bow of the ship, personally set off his bow and shot arrows, and really forced several Cao army soldiers who were trying to board the ship quickly, but he did not expect that the Cao army naval general on the opposite side was a master of archery.

Seeing Sun Quan standing at the bow of the boat, Huang Zhong sneered and took a large bow from the guard beside him.

Taking advantage of the bumpy water flow, his boat approached quickly. Huang Zhong pulled the big bow like a full moon. The feather arrow quickly took action, roaring through the cold wind and flew straight towards Sun Quan.

"Beware!"

Chen Wu kept protecting Sun Quan. When he saw Huang Zhong bend his bow, he rushed forward. Sun Quan was knocked down by him. The feather arrow happened to pass by and shot heavily on the boat, shaking continuously.

Sun Quan was frightened and sweated coldly. He never dared to get up again. He could only hide behind the female wall to command the soldiers to fight.

Although this tower ship can carry a lot, Sun Quan's actions this time are quite secret, with less than 700 people from Chen Wu's headquarters following the guards.

Under Huang Zhong's fierce attack, the Wu army immediately became in chaos and almost fell into a desperate situation.

Fortunately, at this critical moment, Lu Yi's soldiers finally completed the supply and appeared on the battlefield again.

Seeing that Sun Quan was surrounded, Lu Yi was shocked and immediately stepped forward to rescue him regardless of his concern. When Huang Zhong saw the reinforcements of Wu army arrived, he originally wanted to forget it, but when he saw that Lu Yi's reinforcements were all worried about their anxious expressions, he seemed to have guessed the identity of the noble man on the ship.

Could it be that Sun Quan is here?

The highest honor of a military general is to kill the enemy's chief general. Sun Quan was the leader of Jiangdong, and Huang Zhong did not have the opportunity to face him.

But now the opportunity is in front of him.
