Chapter 103 Zhou Gongjin!
Xiakou is a small town, but because it is located south of the Yangtze River, it is actually quite embarrassing. There are two reasons why Zhang Liao chose this place as his base camp.
First, Xiakou is south of the Yangtze River, which is conducive to cavalry and infantry entering Jiangdong, thus reaching Chaisang.
Second, Xiakou is surrounded by the river, and it is a natural port. Nearby is a big lake: Qingcao Lake, which was called Wuchang Lake in later generations. Qingcao Lake is deep and wide. There is absolutely no problem with Cai Mao's naval army blocking it here.
Of course, now, there is still a problem that needs to be solved!
Because Xiakou is not in his hands, the Xiakou at this moment is in Sun Quan's hands, or to be precise, in Zhou Yu's hands.
Xiakou is so unique that Jiangdong naturally attaches great importance to it. Huang Gai is located in it.
Step by step!
Zhang Liao led 10,000 cavalry and 30,000 infantry to the edge of the Yangtze River. On this side, there was a river that was not big or small, converging its accumulation into the Yangtze River, which was the summer water!
On the banks of the Xia River is Xiakou. So at the intersection of the Xia River and the Yangtze River, Zhang Liao set up a camp at the intersection of the Xia River and the Yangtze River. Not long after, Cai Mao led hundreds of large ships and was ready to set off at the estuary of the Yangtze River.
................
The main account of Xiakou Military Camp!
Huang Gai was covered in armor and had a gray beard. He was holding a bamboo slip he had just handed to the small school. His eyebrows were like two lumps and they were tightly wrinkled together.
The military academy under the tent looked at Huang Gai's expression and started to discuss for a moment. After his head, a person walked out of him.
This person was wearing a white armor and a white robe, but because of his thin body, he not only did not look tough, but instead had more a scholarly spirit. If he was not Lu Xun, who was he?
"Wei Zun, is this bamboo slip a military situation in front?" Huang Gai is now the commander of Danyang, so Lu Xun respectfully calls him Wei Zun.
Huang Gai glanced at Lu Xun and nodded slowly.
"Can you look at it with me?"
Huang Gai was about to nod, but stood opposite Lu Xun, but a man walked out. He was not wearing armor, but just wearing the robe of the military advisor of this era. His appearance was quite good, but there was always a feminine look between his eyebrows and eyes, which made people not particularly comfortable to look at.
"Wei Zun, but Cao's army has fought""
Huang Gai looked at the young man who suddenly came out and nodded!
The young man smiled, with no fear on his face, and a hint of joy in his eyes.
"Cao Cao and a million troops must not fight!"
The young scholar who spoke was Zhang Cheng, whose courtesy name was Zhongsi, and was Zhang Zhao's eldest son.
Zhang Zhao advocated surrendering Cao, and as his eldest son, Zhang Cheng naturally thought so. Now that he knew that Cao's army was coming, he not only was not worried, but was filled with joy.
Lu Xun naturally knew what this colleague was thinking, and looked away with his eyes squinted, all his eyebrows and eyes were disdainful to Zhang Cheng.
"It would be better if Sima, the marching master, read the contents on the bamboo slip first and then make a conclusion!"
"Hmph!" Zhang Cheng glanced at Lu Xun, had to shake his sleeves hard and said, "Then let's take a look!"
Huang Gai handed the bamboo slips on his hand to an armored pawn standing beside him, and his face was quite calm.
As soon as the armored young man came down, Lu Xun took over. Zhang Cheng was not willing to agree. He quickly got together with Lu Xun and finished reading the contents in the bamboo slips.
"this..."
After reading the contents of the bamboo slips, Lu Xun was silent for a moment, while Zhang Cheng was already laughing wildly.
"Hahahaha! Wei Zun, look, Liu Bei lost Jiangling in one day and is now a loser. Now Zhang Wenyuan is stationed in Xiashui. The purpose is to be in Jiangdong. If the lord does not allow his lord to surrender, Jiangdong will really go through war. Then the people will be in poverty and corpses are everywhere. Could it be that Wei Zun is willing to see it?"
After hearing this, Huang Gai remained silent, but his eyes looked at Lu Xun.
Jiangdong is now divided into two camps, just like the situation in the Xiakou camp.
Surrender to Cao and fight against Cao!
The hawks and doves have their own reasons and their own strengths. Even Sun Quan would not dare to make a conclusion, let alone Huang Gai.
But as a veteran, Huang Gai followed Sun Jian, Sun Ce and Sun Quan for three generations. To be honest, he was not very afraid of Cao Cao, and his willingness was more inclined to one word: Battle!
After hearing Zhang Cheng's words, Lu Xun raised his head and smiled!
"Ha ha ha ha!"
Zhang Cheng's face suddenly looked a little ugly. What I said makes sense, why are you Lu Xun laughing at?
"Why did Wei Lu Qu laugh?"
Lu Xun's eyes suddenly lit up, and the bright color was filled with dangerous light.
"I smiled and marched Sima was a rat!"
Rats?
Zhang Cheng's face suddenly turned red, and the blue veins on his neck were like insects and snakes, which were particularly ferocious.
"How dare you insult me?"
Incest you?
No no no no!
I, Lu Xun, not only want to insult you, but also want to step on you!
"Zhang Liao's troops are only 50,000, and there are tens of thousands of people in the six counties in Jiangdong. There are natural dangers in the Yangtze River. Why are you afraid of it? Sima, the marching army, was timid before he fought. He was not a rat, so what?"
After Lu Xun said this, the general standing on Lu Xun's side suddenly burst into laughter, while the general standing behind Zhang Cheng was full of anger, obviously very angry.
"Okay, OK, the decision on this matter is not up to you and me, let's follow the words of the Grand Governor and the lord!"
When Zhang Cheng heard Huang Gai say the words of the Grand Governor and the lord, his eyes were a little strange.
Put Zhou Gongjin in front of your lord... Is it because you, Huang Gai, was it because you were wronged by Huang Gai, or was Zhou Yu already had a great success in the master?
"promise!"
Lu Xun and a group of generals and schools quickly responded.
At the same time, in Xiakou Camp, two cavalry set out, one with three horses, and three flags flying in the wind behind him, rushed to Nanchang in the south, while the other cavalry headed eastward toward Chaisang.
One day later, Nanchang!
A man was walking in the courtyard. There were Liushang Qushui and strange rocks in the rockery. It was noon at this time, but the scorching sun had long been blocked by the tall kapok tree, and only a little halo was shining. In midsummer, it seemed a little cold.
The man was wearing a brocade dress and holding a roll of bamboo slips in his hand, not knowing what he was looking at.
Deep in the courtyard, there were sounds of silk and bamboo.
The beauty in the fairy skirt danced with her hands, and what came out was like a jingle of spring water.
It was Zhou Yu and Xiao Qiao.
Nanchang is close to the territory of Shanyue people. Although Zhou Yu had defeated him not long ago, the inclusion matter was quite complicated, so Zhou Yu stayed in Nanchang. He was busy with official business and enjoyed Xiao Qiao in the courtyard in his spare time. He was very happy.
Step by step ~
A manager in his sixties came out of the courtyard. He hunched over and walked over and said something in Zhou Yu's ear.
After hearing the old manager's words, Zhou Yu showed a hint of scrupulousness on his face.
"Let's lead the way!"
Zhou Yu said something to the old manager, walked and placed the bamboo slips on the stone platform in the courtyard, then bowed to the high pavilion in the deep courtyard, and then left the courtyard.
After Zhou Yu left, the relaxed and cheerful piano sound instantly brought some helpless resentment from the private woman.
