Chapter 259 I want to prove myself

Xu Shu is implying that Liu Feng should not agree to Gan Ning's initiative to fight.

Obviously, Xu Shu does not trust this "Jinfan thief".

It's no wonder that Gan Ning has done a lot of killing and arson in Jingzhou. There are many people who have been offended and have a bad reputation. Xu Shu has been in Jingzhou for many years, and naturally he has heard a lot of Gan Ning's notoriety.

Therefore, even if Xu Shu made this alienation plan for Liu Feng, he himself did not have much good feelings for the Dongwu general with the extremely heavy surname of the "bandit".

For Xu Shu's hint, Liu Feng pretended not to see it and said, "Okay, then I will allocate 5,000 soldiers and 30 warships to make you the vanguard and take the land directly."

"Oh!"

Gan Ning's blood was hot-blooded and proudly took the order.

At present, Gan Ning received the talisman paid by Liu Feng, led 800 soldiers in the headquarters, and 5,000 newly allocated Jingzhou sailors, and sailed to the landing port with a vanguard position.

Gan Ning went, and Xu Shu frowned quickly and said, "Master, I just hinted that you didn't turn a blind eye."

Liu Feng smiled and said confidently, "I know that Gan Ning has a bad reputation in Jingzhou, but this time I believe that he is absolutely sincere."

"Why is the Lord so confident?" Xu Shu looked suspicious.

Liu Feng stood on the deck with his hands on his back, looked up at the east, and sneered: "At the cost of burning all the grain and grass, if it were Zhou Lang, he might be able to do it. As for Sun Yu, I don't believe he has the courage.

In Liu Feng's view, except for Sun Jian and Sun Ce, who have the courage of a king, are all self-recontaining thieves.

If Gan Ning did not burn grain and grass to return, Liu Feng might still be on guard, but it was precisely because he burned grain and grass that Liu Feng was convinced that the surrender was true.

Liu Feng's sarcastic words immediately made Xu Shu realize.

At this time, Xu Shu said nothing more. He looked at the young hero in front of him and was sincerely impressed by his inconceivable ability to know people.

In a trance, Xu Shu suddenly had a strong doubt in his heart: Could it be that I really chose the wrong object of assistance? Is this person in front of me the hero who can really end this troubled world?

At the time of God's mind, hundreds of rapids, thousands of sails, and the vast fleet went in the direction of Red Cliff.

########## Huainan, Chaohu.

It is said that in the distant mythical era, this big lake did not exist, but a hilly hilly land called ancient Chaozhou.

The land in this state is barren. There are neither lakes and dams for water storage, nor rivers and ditches for irrigation. Farmers who have cultivated here for generations have suffered from drought all year round.

However, a sudden heavy rain flooded the whole Chaozhou, forming a large lake with a radius of hundreds of miles.

Although the flood drowned many local people, the survivors no longer had to worry about the drought and lived a smooth life from then on.

Chaohu, hence the name.

At this moment, a war that determines the fate of many people is about to be staged on this blue lake.

The sky is gloomy like a fierce ghost's face, ferocious and dark.

Between the rolling clouds, there seem to be thousands of beasts roaring.

click ~ ~ A thunder broke through the clouds, and the incandescent electric light was like a sharp claw, which easily tore through the drowsy world.

Under the electric light, on the endless lake, two unprecedented fleets are slowly sailing towards each other.

That's the Huainan Marine Division led by Zhou Yu and the Yangtze River Marine Division under the command of Lv Meng. A total of about 1,000 warships want to fight to the death on this Chaohu Lake.

Since the Battle of Red Cliff, the water army of Eastern Wu has been expanding continuously. By the time Zhou Yu captured Xuzhou, Eastern Wu had a huge fleet of more than 1,500 ships.

Among them, more than 5,000 warships are placed on the front line of the Huaihe River, more than 300 are deployed in Jiangxia, and the remaining 700 are distributed in the military ports of the Yangtze River from Jiangxia to Jianye.

After hearing that Zhou Yu rebelled, Sun Quan quickly assembled nearly 500 warships on the Yangtze River line and led 40,000 navy troops into Chaohu Lake from Ruxukou to prepare to attack Hefei and pace Zhou Yu's rebellion.

In terms of Zhou Yu, he originally had 70,000 Wu troops, but because of the Cao army on the front line of Qingyan, 30,000 people had to stay in Xuzhou, and about 10,000 soldiers and horses guarded the key points of the new Lianghuai that had not been new for a long time.

Therefore, there are only about 30,000 soldiers and horses used to deal with Sun Quan's expedition.

Although the force was at a disadvantage, Zhou Yu did not intend to take the defensive position at all. Instead, he personally led 30,000 elites and went south to Chaohu with 500 warships to take the initiative to seek a decisive battle with Sun Quan's main force.

Zhou Yu knew that he could not delay. Only by quickly destroying Sun Quan, seizing the control of the whole Yangzhou, and ending the division of Eastern Wu, could he avoid being robbed by the surrounding enemies.

On the huge ship, Lv Meng stood with his sword, showing unprecedented excitement in his eyebrows.

Up to now, he has finally gained the same position with Zhou Yu and Lu Su. Although he got a little dramatic surname, he doesn't care at all.

I, Lu Meng, am not like you, Zhou Lang or Lu Su. I am a good teacher since I was a child.

I, Lu Meng, was born in Hanwei. Once upon a time, I didn't know many big words.

You, Zhou Yu, before you become an official, have a good reputation and can easily stay in a high position.

And for me, although I have immortal talent, I can only start from the difficulty of a pawn. If I hadn't played a little cleverness in those years, Wu Hou might not have noticed me, a lowly martial artist, all my life.

But now, I am the most trusted person of Wuhou. All Eastern Wu people firmly believe that only I am your opponent of Zhou Yu.

I have been waiting for this day for too long.

The trend of thought is rolling, and the excited look is full of color.

He clenched his fist. He bit his teeth and muttered to himself, "Zhou Yu, in today's battle, I will prove to the world that I, Lv Meng, am the first general of Eastern Wu. You will be my stepping stone to shock the world!"

########## The wind stroked the temples and danced, and the handsome face was as quiet as an ice lake.

Feeling a trace of coolness on his forehead, Zhou Yu stretched out his white hand. Soon, the palm of his hand was full of wet rain.

He raised his head and looked far away. A few miles away, the familiar flag and the familiar warship gradually came into his eyes.

Zhou Yu seems to be able to feel that the oncoming wind is full of a strong murderous spirit.

"Lv Ziming, you must have waited for this day for a long time."

The corners of his mouth rose slightly, showing a faint smile.

At this time, he suddenly felt a burst of relief in his chest. Zhou Yu covered his mouth and coughed dryly.

Ling Tong beside him hurriedly said, "Governor, it's windy here. Why don't you go back to the cabin?"

Zhou Yu waved her hand slightly to indicate that she was fine, but the sad situation of coughing made the most trusted love around her feel uncomfortable.

After a long time, Zhou Yu recovered and raised her head. The raindrops had fallen down.

Ling Unification waved his hand and hurriedly raised the umbrella to cover it, trying to cover Zhou Yu from the rain.

Zhou Yu pushed the umbrella cover away.

Ling Unification was stunned and hurriedly said, "Governor, you are in poor health. It's not good to get caught in the rain."

Zhou Yu said lightly, "All the soldiers of the three armies are fighting in the rain. How can I shelter from the wind and rain alone? If I want to be drenched in the rain, I will be drenched together with the soldiers."

Zhou Yu's words moved the left and right soldiers.

At this time, he stepped on the highest deck and stood tall.

When the soldiers of the three armies saw the figure of their commanders and suffered from the heavy rain like themselves, the soldiers were moved and their blood was boiling. The shout of "Long live" rose from near to far to the whole army.

The rain was getting bigger and bigger, and Zhou Yu was soaked all over in an instant.

Soaked in rain, coupled with the cold wind, the chill is extremely uncomfortable.

Despite this, Zhou Yu stood still proudly in the heavy rain.

The enemy ships are getting closer and closer. More than a thousand warships, each with a conical array, such as two huge spears, shot against the rippling lake.

Zhou Yu, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly drew his sword. Han Feng pointed directly at the enemy and shouted, "The whole army attacks!"

The thunderous drums suddenly rose, making the flag shake in the wind and rain, and countless rushes, battleships and buildings rushed out and rushed to the enemy.

Success or failure, in this battle.

##########.

Sun Quan stood on the dock wall, set up a pergola, and looked anxiously in the direction of Chaohu.

Ruxukou is dozens of miles away from Chaohu Lake. Standing here, he can't see anything at all, but every once in a while, Sun Quan couldn't help looking at it, as if he could see the ongoing battle.

There is a deep panic in Sun Quan's heart, because he knows very well that if this battle fails, he will lose everything.

If possible, Sun Quan would rather lead his army to fight with Zhou Yu and kill the shameless traitor himself.

But Sun Quan didn't. He knew that he still had it. He knew very well that playing with power was his strength. When it comes to war, ten of them were not Zhou Yu's opponents.

Or, no one in the whole Eastern Wu is an opponent of Zhou Yu.

Although Han Dang and other veterans are loyal and have prestige, loyalty and prestige are not directly proportional to the talent of war.

As for the generals such as Chen Wu and Dong Xi, although they are brave and good at fighting, they are only worthy to be generals of one army.

After calculation, Sun Quan can only place his hope on Lv Meng, who has the lowest qualifications.

Sun Quan, a young general who was promoted by himself, originally intended to train him and replace Zhou Yu and Lu Su in the future, but now, Sun Quan can only let him provoke this task in advance.

To be honest, although he appreciates Lu Meng very much, he is not sure whether he can defeat Zhou Yu.

Sun Quan has no choice.

"Lv Ziming, the rise and fall of my Sun family are all in your hands. Don't let me down."

Sun Quan tried his best to maintain calmness, but in his heart, he was praying uneasily.

It is said to rise and fall, and the rain rises and the rain rests.

On this day, Sun Quan suffered from years of torture.

In the evening, he finally saw a leaf coming from the north.
