The Yangtze River, among the water villages of the Jiangxia Water Army.

Zhou Tai sat on the top of the conference hall, his eyes looked at his decoration, obviously helpless, and he couldn't help but smile bitterly.

"Lao Tzu is actually a water thief again!"

He has been familiar with Wu Guo's military robe and armor for several years, and he is already familiar with Wu Guo's military robe and armor, and suddenly changed to the costume of a water thief, and for a while, he is really a little unaccustomed.

"Brother Zhou?"

Jiang Qin sat next to Zhou Tai, looking at Zhou Tai with a look that looked a little unnatural.

"Old Jiang, have you ever thought that you would recreate the name of the Jiujiang thief like this?" Zhou Tai's eyes looked at the water village, with black characters on a red background, a tattered thief battle flag, and smiled slightly bitterly: "Lao Tzu's reputation is all fucking ruined!" ”

"I never thought there would be such a day!"

Jiang Qin also raised his head, looked at this battle flag, shook his head, and said, "If it weren't for the king's holy decree, something would not have erected this thief's horn!" ”

They used to be Jiujiang thieves, and they seemed to be at ease during that time, but like a dog, they were driven to the sky and into the earth, and sometimes they couldn't even eat, which made them really reluctant to mention it in their hearts.

Think about it, the two of them, who have achieved fame over the years, glorified their ancestors, and there are so many people in the army who admire them like a cow, so they naturally don't want others to know about this thief number.

"If I had known that this was the case, I should have swapped with Gan Ning in the first place, and I would have personally gone to guard the East China Sea and let that guy come to Chaisang!" Zhou Tai patted his forehead gently, to be honest, he regretted it a little, when they returned from Youzhou, they had the opportunity to change the position of the town guard.

Zhou Tai. Ganning and Xuezhou are the three giants of the Wu Navy, one guards Chaisang, one guards the East China Sea, and the other wanders around the South China Sea.

Gan Ning defected to Wu from Jiangxia and became famous in the past two years. He naturally had an ambition and wanted to return to Jiangxia in person, so he once begged Zhou Tai to switch their positions.

Of course Zhou Tai was unwilling, because Wu was about to face the Chu State, and Chaisang was the bridgehead, and he still wanted to make meritorious contributions when attacking the Chu State.

"Okay, Brother Zhou, don't complain. I did it even if I didn't do it! ”

Jiang Qin shrugged, he smiled relievedly, and then said: "Now let's discuss, how can we fight a dozen Xiling, complete the task as soon as possible, and return to the team as soon as possible!" ”

"There's no rush for this!"

Zhou Tai's eyes sharpened: "The captives have all been sent to Chaisang!" ”

Last night's sneak attack was very smooth, and Zhou Tai led only 10,000 soldiers and horses. In a quarter of an hour, the generals were captured. And then took down the entire water village in one fell swoop.

The number of casualties is in the double digits, which can be a big victory.

"In the early hours of this morning, Ling Cao personally led his troops and escorted five thousand captives to the Chaisang camp!"

There was a hint of joy in Jiang Qin's eyes, and he said: "This batch is all Jiangxia's elite soldiers, if there is a year." It will definitely be able to assimilate them all into the navy of the Wu State! ”

"This can be regarded as an increase or decrease in Chaisang's troops!" With a strength of 50,000 or 60,000, Chaisang is the weakest of the navy, and whether it is in the East China Sea or the South China Sea, the strength of the navy is above Chaisang.

"Brother Zhou. When are we going north? ”

"I mean wait!"

Zhou Tai talked about the matter, his expression became strict, and his eyes exuded this cold glow, and said: "The situation in Xiling is not clear now, we are a strange army, it is best not to expose it, wait until they are defeated, and then kill!" ”

"If the opportunity is missed, what if the guide can't capture Jiangxia?"

Jiang Qin said worriedly: "What should we do?" ”

"Old Jiang!"

When Zhou Tai heard this, he hurriedly shook his head and said: "This mission, it doesn't matter whether we can capture Jiangxia or not, and even if we have a chance to capture Jiangxia, we don't have to seize it, Jiangxia County is the land of Chu after all, and if we really take Jiangxia, it is equivalent to starting a war with Chu State!" ”

"Today's Wu State can't afford to fight a war of alluring the country!" Zhou Tai squinted his eyes, he knew very well the current situation in the country, local battles, it would inevitably be Jiujiang, such as Youzhou, it didn't matter if he fought or fought, but if a full-scale campaign was launched, the current situation of Wu State would not be able to support it.

Therefore, he must grasp this degree, otherwise it will be self-defeating.

"And what is our purpose?" Jiang Qin was obviously a little puzzled when he heard Zhou Tai's words.

Zhou Tai is the main general, and he is a deputy general, so naturally there are many military secrets that Zhou Tai can know, but he does not know.

"Our goal is to be a-stirring stick!"

Zhou Tai smiled a little bitterly when he said this, he was a general Wu Guowei, dressed as a water thief, and he had to be a-stirring stick, which was too embarrassing.

He said directly to Jiang Qin: "Pang Tong, the military advisor of the Taiwei Mansion, has gone to Xiling in person, this time's plan, he said, this battle, according to what he said, the news he gave to a certain person is that when Huang Shot can't support it, he hopes to kill suddenly, if Huang Shot can be pushed to the position of Huang Zu, naturally everyone will be happy, but if not, we have to find a way to bring Huang Shot back!" ”

"What do you mean?"

Jiang Qin's eyes lit up slightly, and said, "Disturb Jiangxia and lay out for the future!" ”

Huang Shot, this person is no stranger to him, in the past two years, in the small-scale battles in the Yangtze River waterway, Huang Shot can be regarded as a certain influence on the Wu Navy.

"That's right!"

Zhou Tai nodded, and then said, "And after this time is over, I can retreat, you can't!" ”

"Why?" When Jiang Qin heard this, he was shocked, jumped up suddenly, and looked at Zhou Tai deadly.

"Lao Jiang, Wu is now peaceful in the four seas, and the national strength is at its peak, as long as he survives this transition period and his strength is restored, he will naturally dominate the world, a certain family is not afraid to tell you, the Taiwei Mansion and the General's Mansion have already made a plan, the first to go to war is the Chu State, and the battle against the Chu State will break out in two or three years at most!"

Zhou Tai patiently analyzed: "Before this, we need to lay out in the Chu State, no matter who wins the battle of Jiangxia, you will stay in Jiangxia and Dongting Lake!" ”

"To be a water thief?"

Jiang Qin's face collapsed suddenly.

"Hmm!"

Zhou Tai nodded and said, "You also know very well in your heart that now we must leave our own strength in Jiangxia. ”

"Can you not do it?" Jiang Qin grimaced. Anyway, he is now also a well-known general in Wu State, and being a water thief once is enough to be embarrassed, and he will have to do it for a few years.

"There is no room for negotiation!" Zhou Tai shook his head and said, "It's not you who do it, or I do it." Can you take the place of the tens of thousands of navy that intimidated Chaisang? ”

"Can't!"

When Jiang Qin heard this, he hurriedly shook his head, the military regulations of the Wu army were strict, the upper and lower classes were clearly distinguished, and there were several deputy generals like him in the Chaisang battalion, but the main general was only Zhou Tai.

This is not a substitute.

"Report!"

At that moment, one of the scouts walked in with a loud shout. He bowed his head and said: "General, the Battle of Xiling has broken out, and the Pang army sent a letter to ask you to go north for reinforcements as soon as possible!" ”

"Jiang Qin!"

When Zhou Tai heard this, the light in his eyes suddenly became violent, and he shouted.

"In!"

"Immediately reorganize your soldiers and horses, set off in an hour, and go north to Xiling!" Zhou Tai said loudly. Since Pang Tong was summoned in such a hurry, it was obvious that the battlefield had changed

"No!"

Jiang Qin nodded. Go down immediately and put the soldiers and horses in order.

――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

At this moment, the bloody battle in Xiling City is raging.

Huang Zhu has launched a strong attack for three consecutive days.

The background of the Huang clan in Jiangxia exploded undoubtedly at this moment, even if Huang Jie only has 25,000 soldiers and horses now, but he relies on his Lao Tzu's prestige in Jiangxia within three days. The 50,000 people who were requisitioned from all over the country were issued weapons and became cannon fodder for the siege.

That's the strength of the Maison.

At the same time, there was also panic in Xiling City, which was besieged, this was the city that Huang Zu had operated for nearly ten years, and now it was Huang Zu's son Huang Shot who was attacking it outside the city.

Head of the city.

Zhuge Liang was dressed in a Confucian robe. Holding a feather fan in his hand, his eyes looked down at the attack under the city, and there was a flash of surprise in it.

Yellow Shot!

In his impression, this gentleman who obviously didn't understand anything went beyond his expectations.

"Military division, a certain leader of the troops out of the city and defeat its formation!" Guan Yu stood beside Zhuge Liang and said coldly and arrogantly.

"No!"

Zhuge Liang shook his head and said, "Although the soldiers and horses outside the city are all a rabble, they seem to be numerous, and they should not be underestimated!" ”

"A group of people who haven't seen blood yet, it's scary!" Guan Yu said coldly.

"They are not afraid, but the equipment removed from the large warship is fierce, and you must be afraid, if you are sniped by a ballista, the gain outweighs the loss!"

Zhuge Liang squinted, the corners of his mouth outlined a smile, and said lightly: "General Guan, don't be impatient, we will win this battle!" ”

"Master Soldier!"

At this time, Huang Hao walked up to the city, and said with a somewhat bitter face: "There is less and less grain and grass in the city, and many big families have hidden their grain. ”

"Damn it!"

Guan Yu was exposed, and said coldly: "A certain family personally led troops to pacify them!" ”

Xiling City is the seat of Jiangxia County, and there are many big families in the city, but now they have not gathered the hearts of the people, even if the hearts of the soldiers under their command are all up and down.

Otherwise, with their soldiers and horses, under the leadership of Guan Yu, the unequaled general, the soldiers and horses of Huang Shot wanted to besiege the city, it was impossible, and they should have been defeated by them without touching Xiling.

"No!" Zhuge shook his head and said: "Xiling City will still be the seat of the lord's government, and these big families are the key to whether we can stabilize Xiling in the future, and we can't offend!" ”

Now his people's hearts are not enough, their morale is insufficient, and the people of the Huang family are fanning the wind and rain, which has made the people in the city panic, if these big families are taken again, the city will be chaotic.

"How long can we support our food?"

Zhuge Liang was calculated by Pang Tong, Xiling City, which was originally full of food, couldn't even take out the grain and grass of tens of thousands of troops, which made him feel a trace of anger in his heart.

"Three days!"

Huang Hao pondered for a while, and said indifferently: "If you save money and eat frugally, you can stay up for one more day, and within four days, you will definitely run out of food!" ”

"Three days?" Zhuge Liang squinted his eyes and said coldly: "Enough, within three days, a certain family will definitely be able to end this war!" (To be continued......)
