Chapter 624 The Bird of the Bow

Li You led the army south to Qiantang! The news came on the first day of the first day, and the east of Jiangnan was in an uproar. Zheng Feihuang, Wang Wufeng, Yan Zhenquan and others rushed into the palace like frightened birds, guessing Li You's plan, "Now that Yuan Zhang is still in Henan Road, will he dare to come south to attack us?" Qiantang was almost the northernmost part of Jiangnan Road, and there was no wonder that tens of thousands of troops suddenly came. Although the navy in their hands could be called unparalleled in the world, the infantry was unbearable. If Li You led the army to attack Jiangnan Road, they would have no choice.

"I said not to mobilize troops by chance to cause misunderstandings from Jiazhou Bo. Look, now the retribution is coming?" Someone can't help but blame. When Li You led his army north, they still had the intention to take advantage of the situation and moved their troops to the junction secretly, intending to take the opportunity to expand their territory when Li You was defeated by the Northern Barbarians. However, they did not expect that Yalehan's 80,000 army was completely wiped out by Li You in one battle, and Yuan Zhang's 100,000 army was trapped in Henan Road and could not escape. Now, his wise decision became a death talisman for Jiangnan West Road at this time.

"It's not the time to talk about these things. Let's think about how to overcome the difficulties in front of you." As soon as Zheng Feihuang spoke, everyone calmed down one after another. This was also the advantage of the small court of King Yue. Most of the people here were from maritime businessmen and had experienced huge losses in the storm. The seats accepted these things much faster than the court officials of the Great Wei. Moreover, they also knew that losing their composure was so serious that they could no longer be in chaos, so they controlled the ** who eliminated dissidents, listened to Zheng Feihuang's words and began to think about how to deal with the pressure from Jiazhou.

"I think this time, Jiazhou Bo goes south to Qiantang, and he doesn't have to march into Jiangnan East Road immediately." Wang Wufeng said for a moment, and he also gave his own reasons. "According to the news sent by Qiantang's spies, Qian Hua is now practicing a naval master on the lake, probably for us, but this naval master has not started training in the sea. Jiazhou Botian Zong genius, wouldn't have known that if he wants to attack Jiangnan East Road, he must have defeated our naval master. I believe he will not go south before Qian Hua's naval master is trained."

"And even if you attack by land, there shouldn't be only the troops of Qiantang, but from Huainan Road, Jiangnan West Road and Lingnan Road, three groups." Zheng Feihuang nodded in agreement. As long as this navy was in them, it could still create a huge threat to the coastal prefectures and counties. I believe Li You would not suffer this loss. Moreover, other troops in Jiazhou now have no signs of attacking Jiangnan East Road. "The troops in Jiangnan West Road and Lingnan Road show no sign of getting closer to Jiangnan East Road."

"And the army led by Jiazhou Bo this time seems to be incorrect." As soon as Jing reminded him, many people began to discover flaws. "The 20,000 soldiers and horses heading south this time are infantry, and there are very few cavalry. If we really have plans to attack us, we will never only bring infantry." The cavalry is still the undisputed king on the battlefield of this era. It is hard to imagine that Li You would not allow this decisive force to participate in the battle to attack Jiangnan East Road.

"In this way, Jiazhou is probably just returning to Chaozhou and passing by Jiazhou." After taking out one piece of evidence, everyone seemed to be relieved. At least they don't have to worry about being attacked now.

"Even if we don't fight this time, as long as we refuse to surrender to Jiazhou Bo, at most three or five years, or at least one or two years, my Jiangnan East Road will still be attacked by Jiazhou Bo." Seeing these people's extremely glad appearance, Wang Wufeng couldn't help but feel a little disdainful. Isn't it too short-sighted? "Why did Jiazhou Bo's troops return to the court and stay in Qiantang? It's probably to check the naval master trained by Qian Hua. The spy in Qiantang had long said that Qian Hua was training naval masters on the lake. The Qian family must have clearly the ability to train naval masters. And after hearing what the spy said, there were several large ships in the fleet. From a distance, the scene was like a small city, which was far above our naval masters, and the sound of thunder was often heard on the lake. I don't know what tricks there are. I'm afraid that when this naval master was trained, it would be the day when Jiazhou Bo's troops attacked Jiangnan East Road."

"It seems that it's better to start fighting now. At least I can still keep this navy for the time being. At least I will retreat to the island at the very least. I will not be able to find any good solutions to them. Maybe they can find opportunities to burn Qian Hua's fleet, but we really don't make this decision now." Yan Zhenquan sighed. The Qian family has guarded Qiantang for generations, and they have countless watercraft craftsmen under their command. The Qian family also has their own naval fleet. If we say that the navy fought at sea is not much inferior to them, now with Li You's full support, they are even more powerful. They really have no confidence in winning, let alone the treasure ships in this new navy.

"If such a large ship can be used for us, the profits of this sea trade will probably be more than the number." Someone immediately saw the benefits of the treasure ship. Judging from the size of the hull alone, the load capacity of this ship is not low. More load capacity means lower freight and more throughput, which is extremely envious for that merchant.

"It's a pity that these ships seemed to be built and shipped in Jiazhou. Our people in Qiantang couldn't find out any news." Zheng Feihuang also wanted to take the technology of making treasure ships for himself. For this reason, he was willing to pay a lot of gold and silver. Unfortunately, they might have some ways in the coastal areas, but they were completely blind in Jiazhou.

After discussion, the concerns of the people were temporarily dispelled, but Qian Hua's powerful fleet was still like a sword hanging above their heads, which made them feel at all uneasy. According to the data that the spies had measured from afar, Jiazhou's shipbuilding technology was already far above them, and the largest warship among their navy was not as big as that of the treasure ship. If Qian Hua led such a fleet to force them over, what else would they do to fight? Just the height of the deck, even if they could come up, they wouldn't be able to jump up if they wanted to jump to the gang to fight, right?

After arguing for a long time, everyone did not come up with a useful solution. They just made the decision to inquire about spies from Qiantang and Jiazhou, and everyone dispersed.

On weekdays, Wang Wufeng always walked in front, but today it was the end. Zheng Feihuang and Zheng Feihuang were strolling slowly. When the almonds were gradually becoming rare, Wang Wufeng suddenly didn't know whether to talk to himself or to Zheng Feihuang, "Hey, if you have boarded such a few big ships, it would be worth it even if you don't become this official."
