While everyone was stunned, one of the soldiers raised his sword and cut off Huang Jie's head. It's the soldier who Huang Shot just mocked.

"Bah, who said that our family wouldn't dare to kill you." The soldier was quite relieved and spat at the corpse where Huang Zhu had already beheaded himself.

"Please forgive your sins, and let your subordinates say more. Dare to ask how the adults are going to attack Jiangxia, which has tens of thousands of male soldiers? Chen Da took a step forward and vaguely said that his own power was insufficient. Don't take any chances.

Liu Feng ignored him, since he had already decided, Liu Feng had his own way. He took a few steps forward, looked at Zhang Gu, who was also dumbfounded, and said in a deep voice: "I want to recruit Jinfan Gan Ning as Sima of other departments to attack Jiangxia together." I wonder if Brother Zhang is willing to be together? ”

Gan Ning, looking for Liu Feng's subordinate general. Although he does not have many troops now, as long as he gathers the remnants of the army and jumps into Xiangshui to escape, most of the yellow shooting troops are now sitting on both sides of the river. It can also gather thousands of people. It can be regarded as the fulfillment of the promise of the time, or leading thousands of troops, or guarding a county, and he will definitely summon Xingba as the Sima of other departments.

Lead the troops into battle.

Plans don't always keep up with change. As the saying goes, when it's time to strike, make a move. At this time, Gan Ning will not be called, but when.

Faced with Liu Feng's question, Zhang Gu, who was very bold, was silent. After a while, Zhang Gu asked with difficulty, "What are the chances of winning?" ”

"I don't know. But I only know that if I can occupy Jiangxia, then I will be the Taishou, and Brother Zhang, you can also transform from a water thief to an official army. Liu Feng didn't say anything about success or failure to Zhang Gu, he only knew that in this battle, he had to fight, and he couldn't stop fighting.

"Brother Gan will definitely come?" Seeing that Liu Feng did not answer his question directly, Zhang Gu asked another question.

"Gan Ning is a man. I have made an appointment with him, but will he come? Liu Feng asked rhetorically.

"Okay, I believe in the brother of the Gan family, and I will fight with you." Zhang Gu gritted his teeth and said, immediately. With a grim face, he knelt down on one knee in front of Liu Feng, raised his fist and said: "Since the elder brothers of the Gan family are willing to be your other Simas, then I am also willing to be a general under you and meet the lord." ”

This voice of the lord was not shouted by Kou Shui's retainers, but Zhang Gu really recognized that Liu Feng was shouting for a party.

"Brother Zhang, please get up." Liu Feng hadn't reached the kind of time when others shouted that the lord was complacent, so he hurriedly helped Zhang Gu up and said, "This lord should keep it when I have Jiangxia." ”

"No." Zhang Gu quickly entered the role, Ying Nuodao.

"Gather the remnants of the army and get up the ship." After appeasing Zhang Gu, Liu Feng pulled out the long sword at his waist and ordered.

"No." Now that Liu Feng has made up his mind, everyone no longer objected, so they all agreed and went down to collect the remnants.

Soon, only Liu Feng was left in the bow.

Facing the breeze floating on the river, Liu Feng knew that this moment was different. This moment should have been the moment he had been waiting for a long time, but it was three years earlier than expected.

Now in the tenth winter of Jian'an, according to the plan, he should be in the Chibi War, that is, in the winter of the thirteenth year of Jian'an, occupy the public security, and go south to Changsha, Lingling, Wuling, and Guiyang. Then he raised troops to welcome back Gan.

Now, Huang Zu forced him to lift the knife, and advanced this moment by three years. But at this moment, Liu Feng did not have the slightest regret in his heart.

To say that before he met Zhang Gu, Liu Feng really didn't dare to argue with Huang Zu, and he didn't dare to let go of his fart. But after meeting Zhang Gu, Liu Feng heard from Zhang Gu that Huang Zu was old, did not repair warships, and the army could not survive, and he was a gluttonous minister. Today, there is another big battle with yellow shooting, although the other party is outnumbered, but it is indeed impossible to survive.

The troops are not strong.

In this way, even if Huang Zu has tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, it is not enough evidence. What's more, how could a Taishou have tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, at most 20,000, and now that he has easily eliminated 5,000 soldiers and horses, the rest is probably only 15,000, or even less.

On the other hand, he himself has hundreds of elite soldiers. Zhang Gu has more than 1,000 fierce water thieves. Ganning's Jinfan thief, more than 1,000 people.

Although there are few soldiers, none of them can be underestimated. This battle can only be said to be half a catty. Victory or defeat depends on the plan.

In the north and south of the Yangtze River, there are many ferries. Among them, there are as many as five or six in Jiangxia County, Xiakou, Sanjiangkou, Chibi, Wulin, Hanyang, and Shiyang. It's easy to make a large army gather here, south or north.

Jiangxia County is located in a key area. Connecting Jiangdong and Jingzhou. Its cities are located in the north and south of the Yangtze River. It is a battleground for soldiers who combine defense and offense.

Liu Biao sent Huang Zu to guard this place, and he has not changed his candidate for more than ten years, firstly because Huang Zu is Liu Biao's favorite general, and secondly, because this place is too important.

Latecomers, such as Cao Ying, Sun Quan divided Jiangxia into two, of which the city in the north of the Yangtze River was guarded by the general Wenpin. Until Wen Ping died of old age, he never moved.

All show that this place is going to rush, and it cannot be temporarily changed.

The last advantage is that the population of this place is very large, with a population of 100,000. It was Huang Zu who was able to rely on this place, plus a little funding from Liu Biao, to raise 20,000 troops and compete with Sun Quan for several years.

However, Huang Zu has become a little old and mediocre over the years. Because there was a grudge against the Sun brothers to kill their father, Jiangdong was said to be strong. Afraid of Sun's ambitions, he sent troops into Caisang almost every year to fight against Sun. Expect offense instead of defense.

On the other hand, because of the use of force every year, the number of people under his rule has decreased sharply. You must know that when Huang Zuchu took over Jiangxia, there were a full population of 150,000. In ten years, 50,000 people have dropped, and the army is reckless.

Gold and silver, heavy grain and grass. are in scarcity. Huang Zu relied on Liu Biao's funding, and on the other hand, he threw an olive branch to some small scholars, Xiao Haoqiang. The support of Huang Zu in exchange for gold and silver. Luo County Koudang is just one of them.

So barely maintained, the more you fight, the poorer you get, the poorer you are, the more you are afraid, the more you have to fight. After the cycle of evil surnames, the people of Jiangxia are not doing well. Of course, the situation in Jiangxia is not stable, in other words, it is not too difficult to fight.

Xiakou is a very special ferry, it is not like other ferries, but there are bridges, huge platforms, and unloading sites. It is a city.

Half of the castle is made of earthen walls and is located on the ground. Half of it is erected with wood, like a city, and driven into the Yangtze River with piles. Construct the city gate, the female wall. Situated on the water.

Half town, half marina.

Ships come and go inside the city gates, dock at the docks in the center of the city, or unload their goods.

It is a fortress that gathers water defense and land defense. In the past, seventy percent of Huang Zu's army was stationed here. However, today, Major General Huang Jie led almost all the men and horses away.

As a result, the docks in the city seem to be a little sparse. Only the workers inside the merchant ship are loading and unloading the cargo.

For half of the city is on water, but empty shelves. Therefore, it is more difficult to transport supplies, as well as guards. Half of the time there was no war, there were only a few hundred soldiers guarding the gates, arranging for the gates to be opened and closed.

"Lou ship, it's the general's Lou boat back." Suddenly, one of the soldiers guarding the wooden wall shouted.

Today, the guard of the door is a military marquis surnamed Chen, who is 33 years old and has been in the army for ten years. Experienced in battlefield fighting. It stands to reason that we should be more vigilant.

But since Huang Zu became the ruler of Jiangxia, the war between the north and the south has not happened. Therefore, Chen Junhou just glanced outside from a distance, and caught a glimpse of several building ships, as well as the "yellow" character general flag hanging on the building boats. He simply ordered: "Open the city gates." ”

Although the castle is located on the water, the gates are closed, and manpower is required. Therefore, on both sides of the city gate, there is a pontoon bridge for people to stand on.

There were dozens of soldiers standing above, responsible for opening and closing the door.

As soon as the order of the military marquis surnamed Chen was issued, the soldiers on the pontoon bridge worked together to open the door from both sides. Welcome General Huang in.

At this time, the river was a little calm, but with the entry of several building ships and more than a dozen large ships. Immediately the surface of the river was turbulent.

The building ship that sailed in first.

Liu Feng stood at the bow of the boat wearing a suit of armor, with a slightly excited smile on his face. The city, this is what the city feels like. Safe and secure. There is a sense of presence.

From Xinye to Changsha, and then from Changsha to Jiangxia. Liu Feng experienced two fights in just over a month.

One is with the water thief Li Lie, and the other is with Huang Shot. It's because there is no reliable territory, no power, no strength. Now, there is a city.

Liu Feng's eyes were hard to hide the excitement.

Now he is standing here and succeeding, why hide it. He honed his soldiers, and at a very high price, trained the soldiers who broke the barracks. It took 10 months before and after.

The so-called thick and thin hair is precisely based on this.

At this moment, in addition to Liu Feng standing on the deck, there is also Huang Zhong, this old general is really righteous, Liu Feng originally wanted to send some soldiers to escort Huang Zhong, as well as Huang Xu, Mrs. Huang and others to Xiangyang to find Zhang Zhongjing. But Huang Zhong insisted on staying, saying that Huang Xu's illness had been many years, and it was not too long.

Liu Feng could only sigh that he was too lucky, how could he get involved with Huang Zhong. In addition to Huang Zhong, Chen Da, Zhou Shun, Kou Shui, Xu Tian, Zhang Dao and others are all there.

On the deck, it had already been cleaned, and the swords and arrows had been removed. Very clean.

Liu Feng turned his body and met everyone's gaze, his hands clenched into fists, his eyes full of satisfaction. "This city is ours."

"Go control of it."

"No." Everyone agreed in unison, and the crowd was excited. They abandoned Xinye and followed Liu Feng to the south, of course, just for today's time.

The big boat follows the water and goes straight to the ferry in the city.

And on the last building ship, it was Zhang Gu who was in charge. When the ship entered the city, the Marquis Chen ordered the city gate to be closed.

"Occupy this gate." Zhang Gu said with a sneer.

"No." The pirates, dressed in yellow armor uniforms, responded and jumped off both sides of the boat and landed on the top of the pontoon.

After standing firm, the water thieves sneered and said to the stunned defenders: "The general has an order, this city gate will be handed over to us for the time being." ”
