A few days later, Wen Pin got the news that he would meet with the Jiangdong Navy in Huangzhou and prepare to attack the Yangzhou Navy together.

Although the Jiangdong Army and the Jingzhou Navy were together, they were still enemies before, and they still couldn't get along in the two sides. They were all guarding against each other. Although they fought with the Yangzhou Navy for several rounds in a few days, they did not get any advantage because they fought each other.

Instead, they were testing new warships and new crossbows of Yangzhou Navy. Compared with the speed, their tower ships were not as good as the warships of Yangzhou Navy on the opposite side. Compared with the range, they were even more amazing to see that seven hundred steps were shot through a tower ship, which made Zhou Yu and others look very hated and loved.

This crossbow is also a new type, and the warship. Zhou Yu and Sun Ce couldn't help but lit up their eyes. If they got these warships, they would be like a tiger. With the quality of the Jiangdong Army, they would definitely be able to better exert the power of these warships.

After several consecutive battles, everyone stopped their troops one after another. In the past few days, Jingzhou Navy and Yangzhou Navy each had their own victory or defeat.

The Jiangdong Navy lost three tower ships, the Jingzhou Army sank two, and the Yangzhou Navy opposite had two warships. Although they did not sink, it seemed that they would not be able to get out for a while, because he was shot into a hedgehog.

"It won't work like this!" Sun Ce thought hard in his camp. He was now determined to get the new warships from Yangzhou. These warships were like cat paws. After seeing the power of these new warships, Sun Ce looked at his tower ships and hated them.

But it is one thing to want to get it, and it is another thing to be able to get it.

So Sun Ce was very distressed. The Yangzhou navy was fast and could not catch up at all. If you shoot against others, you are not the opponent. If you can't beat them, you can escape. Therefore, there were 50,000 or 60,000 people who practiced with the Jiangdong navy and the Jingzhou navy, but there was nothing we could do about Yangzhou.

If they continue to consume this, they cannot stand it. The Jiangdong naval army has not much food and grass. Although Jingzhou has a lot of food and grass, they still have tens of thousands of Jiangxia soldiers in Xiakou. These soldiers still don’t know that their robes are on the united front with the enemies who invade their homes. If they are known to be rewarded with Jiangxia, those Jiangxia soldiers will not be crazy, but this matter will not be concealed for long.

"Lord, is this food and grass problem? We can ask for help from friendly troops!" Zhou Yu tried to wink at Sun Ce.

As soon as he saw Zhou Yu's eyes, Sun Ce understood, yes, the Jiangdong army was short of food and grass, but Jingzhou was rich, and he was a big rich man. As long as he took out a little, it would be fine. "I believe that friendly troops will not abandon their allies."

"I wonder what Mr. Zhuge has to offer?" Sun Ce smiled and turned his eyes to Zhuge Liang over there. Zhuge Liang had been in the Jiangdong camp for several days. In the past few days, Zhuge Liang had nothing else except to convey the message. He was very leisurely serving wine and food every day.

When Zhuge Liang heard Wu Hou Sun Ce ask him, Zhuge Liang was stunned for a moment, "What did Hou Wu just say?"

"You?" Sun Ce and Zhou Yu were both angry. They couldn't get up and down. They were singing double acts for a while. Zhuge Liang was in a daze and couldn't listen to a word?

In desperation, Zhou Yu could only repeat Sun Ce's words.

"Food and grass?" Zhuge Liang then realized that there was not much food and grass in Jiangdong. In the past few days, a large-scale mobilization of troops would require consumption of a large amount of food and grass. If this was a day or two, it would be fine. If this continued, the food and grass in Jiangdong might be really insufficient.

"I believe that Lord Liu Biao, the governor of Jingzhou, will not sit idly by! Yu, but I heard that Lord Liu Biao gave the fake king Liu Mang of Yangzhou hundreds of thousands of food and grass!" Zhou Yu ran Zhuge Liang in words.

People buy food and grass in Yangzhou with money, where is you in Jiangdong? You just want it for nothing. Although Zhuge Liang despised him in his heart, he was very calm on the surface. "Food and grass!" Zhuge Liang nodded.

"How is it?" Zhou Yu and Sun Ce looked at Zhuge Liang.

"Yes." Zhuge Liang exposed all the wealth in his family like a fool with white hair. "I don't have much else in Jingzhou army, but I have a lot of food and grass. There are 50,000 food and grass I just sent in the summer mouth."

Hoarding means that it is not available for the time being. In other words, in addition to maintaining the cost of a 70,000 army, Xiakou can also produce 50,000 more grain and grass. This number is not small. After all, Jiangxia is just a county, and Xiakou is just a city.

Sun Ce and Zhou Yu looked at each other and felt like they were fighting against the rich.

"How much does Wu Hou and Zhou Lang want in terms of food and grass?" Zhuge Liang asked as he looked at the two of them.

"Of course, the Marquis of Huaiyin ordered his troops." Zhou Yu said from the side.

Marquis of Huaiyin? Isn’t this Han Xin? Han Xin’s orders more troops, and Zhou Yu is so handsome that he wants food and grass. He is very cultural and fresh and refined.

"Is 50,000 enough?" Zhuge Liang was very calm and took another sip of wine.

"Fifty thousand?" Zhou Yu stared wide and was stunned for a moment. He thought that Zhuge Liang would give him at most 10,000, and Zhou Yu was still planning to win 20,000. Who knew that Zhuge Liang asked directly if 50,000 was enough? What rhythm is this? Is he rich? Is he willful?

"Isn't fifty thousand not enough? This is not good. No matter how much you have, you have to report to the lord. It will take half a month to take a boat from Xiangyang to Jiangxia. It's above this time?" Zhuge Liang showed a embarrassed look.

"Enough, enough, enough!" Zhou Yu nodded directly. Why is 50,000 grain and grass not enough? It's just a waste of 50,000 grain and grass.

Is Zhuge Liang a fool? He agreed so quickly?

"If it's not enough, Liang can write to the lord and ask him to transfer some!" Zhuge Liang is really a good person and is preparing to allocate food and grass. This is the Jiangdong Army. After destroying the Yangzhou Army, it will be an enemy that will turn against you. Isn't this a capital enemy?

Zhou Yu and Sun Ce both began to wonder if Zhuge Liang was really the military advisor of the Jiangxia Navy, but Zhuge Liang and the others also saw it. 1. It is certain that yes. Could it be that this person is just a false statement? A person who seeks fame and reputation? Is it that Wenpin who actually controls military power? Or is there another expert?

"Don't bother with the Lord Liu Biao, the governor of Jingzhou." Zhou Yu and others hurriedly stopped Zhuge Liang from writing a letter. If the letter was sent to Jingzhou and Liu Biao refused to give it, it would be a disaster. It would be better to look at the 50,000 in front of you, and not to have 50,000 in the end.

"Then Liang wrote a letter to ask the Xiakou grain transport team to transport grain and grass to Wuchang!" Zhuge Liang said as soon as he did, and immediately picked up the pen, ink, paper and inkstone and wrote it. He ordered the Xiakou defenders to escort the grain and grass to deliver them to Wuchang Naval Army camp within two days.

"Okay, okay, okay!" Sun Ce and Zhou Yu were almost laughing as they looked at Zhuge Liang's notes. This Zhuge Liang is simply his lucky star in Jiangdong.

"Mr. Zhuge, I wonder if Mr. Zhuge is nostalgic for us Jiangdong?" Zhou Yu looked at Zhuge Liang and actually threw an olive branch to Zhuge Liang. If Zhuge Liang surrendered, then they would have a good undercover agent in Jingzhou.

"Jiangdong? I haven't been to Wuchang, but Wuchang is not bad." Zhuge Liang said, "Wuchang belongs to Jiangxia County, and strictly counts as Jingzhou." Seeing that Zhuge Liang had no intention of continuing to talk, Zhou Yu shut up.

"Wu Hou Zhou Lang, give it!" Zhuge Liang was about to hand over the letter in his hand.

Zhou Yu and Sun Ce also smiled and prepared to let their subordinates send it out, but Zhuge Liang suddenly withdrew his hand.

"Huh?" Zhou Yu and Sun Ce were stunned for a moment, "What does Mr. Zhuge mean?"

"Nothing!" Zhuge Liang shook his head and said, "Fifty thousand grains and grass. This can be prepared for the 50,000 army. The Jiangdong soldiers sent out 20,000 people. It would be better to give 20,000 grains and grass."

As he said that, Zhuge Liang was about to tear the tissue and rewrite it.

"Huh?" Zhou Yu saw that Zhuge Liang gave food so easily, that was to want the Jiangdong Army to increase its troops.

"Mr. Zhuge, you only have 30,000 troops in Jingzhou, and now there are only more than 20,000. It would be too difficult to ask us to send 50,000 troops!" Zhou Yu was not in a hurry to take the paper.

"Is it more than 50,000?" Zhuge Liang looked at the letter in his hand, "The Grand Governor should also know that my Jingzhou military can be dispatched 30,000. If there are too many, then it will not be an attack on the Yangzhou navy!" If Zhuge Liang pulled out the 40,000 Jiangxia army in Xiakou, then the 40,000 Jiangxia army would definitely attack Jiangdong instead of attacking Yangzhou. After all, the Jiangdong army still occupied their land.

"And you must know that I, Jingzhou, gave Jiangxia as the price!" Zhuge Liang reminded that Liu Biao in Jingzhou paid a lot of money to eliminate the Yangzhou naval army. The whole Jiangxia exchanged for it was the capital.

"There is no deposit, so how can we believe Mr. Zhuge's lord!" Zhou Yu is not a good-looking person. After all, this is just a piece of paper. What if you don't admit it in Jingzhou?

"Oh, that's fine. I am sending 20,000 troops to 50,000 troops in Jingzhou. The Grand Commander should also take out 50,000 troops!" Zhuge Liang said as he increased his bargaining chips again.

"Fifty thousand soldiers?" Sun Ce and Zhou Yu hesitated. You must know that the elite navy in Jiangdong now has only 60,000 troops. If they take out 50,000 troops at one time, would there be 10,000 troops left?

"What are the Grand Governor and Wu Hou worried about? Are you afraid that our Jingzhou will take the opportunity to attack Jiangxia?" Zhuge Liang shook his feather fan and said, "Twenty thousand Jingzhou soldiers and horses attacking 10,000 Jiangdong soldiers and horses. This is the winner, the Grand Governor, who will win?"

Zhou Yu looked at Zhuge Liang deeply. If the 20,000 Jingzhou naval troops and 10,000 Jiangdong naval troops were really pulled out, the outcome would not be certain. Even if the Jingzhou naval troops win, it would be a tragic victory, not to mention that the 10,000 Jiangdong army still has a city as a shelter.

"When will the 50,000 grains and grass be able to arrive?" Before Zhou Yu could speak, Sun Ce stared at Zhuge Liang and asked.

When Sun Ce asked about food and grass, it means that the increase in troops was successful.

"Fifty thousand grains and grass will definitely arrive in Wuchang within two days!" Zhuge Liang also made a promise for Sun Ce.

"Okay, 50,000 elite Jiangdong soldiers will float on the surface of the Yangtze River in the future." Sun Ce also replied to Zhuge Liang.

"Mr. Wu will take it!" Zhuge Liang smiled and handed the letter in his hand to Sun Ce. "You and I, Jingzhou, are in a state of revenge, wait for the Yangzhou naval army to be eliminated. Now you and I should work together to fight the enemy. Don't destroy the Yangzhou naval army. You, Wu Hou, can sleep, and I, Zhuge Liang, can also be like the lord's transit!"

Lujiang is right next to the bed in Jiangdong. With such combat effectiveness of the Yangzhou naval army, Sun Ce of Jiangdong naturally couldn't sleep. Zhuge Liang told Liu Biao in Jingzhou. That was because the elimination of the Yangzhou naval army could make the face of Lord Liu Biao in Jingzhou who was cuckolded. After all, you have taken revenge, right?

"So what if there is a 100,000 army across the river? The Yangtze River is very big, and the Yangzhou navy is very slippery!" Zhou Yu spoke next to him. The Yangtze River is worthy of being the first mother river in China and the largest inland river. The 100,000 army looks huge, but it is really nothing in the Yangtze River. Moreover, they have seen the new warships of the Yangzhou navy. Even when the war started, even when it was against the wind, countless oars emerged from the cabins of the new warships. They were like centipedes. The speed of the warships was much faster than that of the tower ships, and the tower ship could not catch up at all.

If you chase it, it would be enough to not have to have a 100,000 army of 50,000 troops. As long as the battle on the sidelines begins, the Yangzhou navy will only be eliminated. If you can't catch up, then nothing will be said, and a 100,000 army will be a waste.

"Yes!" Sun Ce was frowning again after hearing Zhou Yu's words. So what about these 100,000 soldiers? It would be useless to not catch up with them. The joy of getting 50,000 food and grass just now disappeared again.

"Why do you need to pursue him?" Zhuge Liang said calmly from the side.

"How can you force him to fight if you don't pursue him?" Zhou Yu asked in confusion. Could it be that he was shooting against the crossbow? Then the only one who suffered the loss was the Jiangdong Navy and Jingzhou Navy Alliance, because the range of your crossbow is not as good as others.

"The Yangzhou navy is like a big fish. He can sway across the Yangtze River, but no matter how flexible the fish is, it cannot escape the fishing net!" Zhuge Liang said to Zhou Yu and Sun Ce.

"Fishing net?" Zhou Yu frowned. What does this mean?

"Forget it, forget it, this is really a risk. Zhou Lang and Wu Hou should forget what Liang said!" Zhuge Liang shook his head and said. "Let's fight steadily. One hundred thousand soldiers and horses will kill him Yangzhou navy step by step."

Looking at Zhuge Liang's appearance, it seems that there is really a solution?

To waste Yangzhou naval army? This is not what the Jiangdong army wants. This army has countless food and supplies. You Jingzhou tyrants don’t care about these tens of thousands of food and supplies, but Jiangdong cares. After the Shu King Liu Mang came to the Jianghuai generation, their Jiangdong army has been writing about the words. Basically, they lose whatever battle they fight. More than 100,000 troops were thrown in, and countless food and supplies were lost.

All the gentry in Jiangdong were plundered by Sun Ce, and there was no more money, so it was understandable that Jiangdong was poor now. Now Jiangdong is thinking about conquering Jingzhou and relying on the local tyrants in Jingzhou to enrich himself.

"Mr. Zhuge, what can I say is that we can all think about it. If it is feasible, then implement it. If it doesn't work, we can also come up with an extra idea, right?" Sun Ce said to Zhuge Liang from the side.

Zhuge Liang glanced at Sun Ce and then looked at Zhou Yu and then said helplessly, "If you say this, then I will speak out in a blunt way."

"Mr. Zhuge, it's okay!" Sun Ce was very frank.

"Grandmaster Wu, let me ask you, how is our Jingzhou and your Jiangdong warships compare to Yangzhou?" Zhuge Liang looked at the two and asked.

"Why!" Sun Ce and Zhou Yu were very straightforward. This was not possible at all, and this could not be a fat man. If the Jingzhou Navy or Jiangdong Navy's warships were qualified, then Sun Ce would not look at the Yangzhou Navy's warships greedily.

"So what about our bed crossbows compared to those of the Yangzhou navy?" Zhuge Liang asked again.

"It's better!" The crossbow on the opposite side can have great power at 700 steps, and they can only penetrate the enemy's warship if they put it at 300 steps. The comparison between these two aspects immediately showed a high or low level.

"Yes, we are not as good as the Yangzhou navy. They have strong ability to collide quickly, and we are not as good as the Yangzhou navy. They have high range and great power. Our crossbows were bought from Yangzhou. Although they have improved a lot, they are still not as good as the ones!" Zhuge Liang also sighed. After getting the crossbow, Jiangdong, like Jingzhou, believed that this was invincible on the Yangtze River. Both sides had studied and improved the crossbows, but that was just a little bit. Who has such a qualitative change?

"The only ones that we can be stronger than the Yangzhou navy are the number of people and warships!" Zhuge Liang said to the two. Indeed, if they really increased their troops as Zhuge Liang said, then both sides would reach about 50,000 troops, which would be almost 400 warships. And the enemy. The Yangzhou navy only had more than 20 warships. Compared with these two, they were not at the same level at all.

No matter how powerful the Yangzhou naval warship is, the bed crossbow is powerful and it cannot shoot so many of them to death.

"If we separate, then our fleet is large and it is nothing more than sand and dust on the Yangtze River. Therefore, we must unite closely and weave a huge fishing net on the Yangtze River to advance and retreat together. In this way, we can put this big Yangzhou fish in it.

"Iron chains are connected to each other?" Sun Ce and Zhou Yu heard Zhuge Liang's idea, which was to use huge iron chains to unite one warship and one warship, so that the four hundred warships really formed a huge fishing net shape, like a fisherman was catching fish, and even if the fish could escape at a faster speed, he would be in the fishing net.

"Yes, once we unite to catch this big fish, it depends on us whether the fish will be killed or caught! Wu Hou doesn't want those new warships from the Yangzhou navy." Zhuge Liang said to Zhou Yu and Sun Ce. You must know that it is difficult to salvage the warships when sunken. There are no crane ships or the like at this time. Only by capturing the unsinkable warships can you drive back and study and manufacture them.

"No!" Zhou Yu thought for a while and refused, "This is too dangerous!" The Iron Chain River is indeed a good idea. It is like a huge fishing net. The fish naturally cannot escape. But you have to know that the Iron Chain River has one of the biggest shortcomings, that is, it is afraid of fire. Once it is contaminated by the fire, it cannot even escape, because your iron chain is connected to each other. Nowadays, warships are made of wood. Although they have been simmered with fire oil and have been soaked for a long time, the wood is still easy to lit. If it really burns, it will be a disaster.

Sun Ce also nodded. He is also a powerful navy general. He naturally understands the benefits and disadvantages of the Iron Chain River.

"Who is the Grand Governor afraid of ignite the fire?" Zhuge Liang asked calmly. "Are you afraid that the Yangzhou navy will set fire? Then please rest assured. Those new warships, they will not be able to set off fuel before they can set off the crossbows. Even if they can, they will not be able to prepare so much fire. You must know that after burning my 400 warships, at least fifteen warships must be filled with fire to light it." It is difficult to burn without ignition materials. Although the warships are made of wood, they can resist a certain amount of fire. If you have less fire, the fire will be strong.

It may be extinguished before it was released. Only enough fire sources can truly ignite the fire. The Yangzhou navy has only more than twenty warships, and there are only less than twenty warships that were damaged a few days ago. And it has to get closer to set fire. If you see a little fire ship, you can directly shoot him with a crossbow and sank him with a bed crossbow. Are you still waiting for him to get closer? Four hundred warships, even if the warships of the Jingzhou navy and Jiangdong navy are small, there are still five bed crossbows on one warship, and four hundred are only two thousand. What warships can withstand it?

"Are you saying that the Grand Governor and Wu Hou were afraid that our Jingzhou army would set fire?" Zhuge Liang said with a smile at Zhou Yu and Sun Ce. "If this is the case, then the Grand Governor and Wu Hou should rest assured. The Jiangdong naval army has 50,000, and although our Jingzhou has lost a lot, there are more than 40,000 elite troops. If we ignite the fire, we can't escape." Zhuge Liang said to Zhou Yu and Sun Ce.

Sun Ce thought about it and nodded, yes, this iron chain river is not their family, and even the Jingzhou navy is together. It is a grasshopper on the same warship. If you die, it is the rhythm of everyone dying together. Although Zhuge Liang is the military advisor of Jingzhou and commanded the army at a young age, if he throws the 50,000 elite troops of Jingzhou on this Huangzhou, Zhuge Liang's position as a military advisor will come to an end and his life will be lost.
To be continued...
