Starting from Xiangyang, Cao Peng, who had just arrived on the front line by water, met Zhang Liao.

Zhang Liao said to Cao Peng with a bitter face: "General, I am embarrassed by the last general. I didn't expect that this Jiangxia land is so easy to defend but difficult to attack because of its water and land separation!"

Cao Peng smiled and signaled him not to think too much.

Gan Ning, who was standing next to Cao Peng, wanted to laugh even more. These famous northern generals finally suffered a loss on the southern waterway.

"Xingba, in your opinion, should we continue to attack, or?" Cao Peng asked.

Gan Ning didn't expect that Cao Peng immediately asked for his opinion, so he thought about it and said.

"General, in my opinion, if you want to take Jiangxia, you must transfer the navy under Cai Mao, the commander of Jingzhou."

Cao Peng heard this and smiled bitterly.

The navy under Cai Mao is training day and night to prepare for the future conquest of Jiangdong.

Cao Cao would never agree to call the navy under Cai Mao.

"What you said cannot work, think about it again!" Cao Peng said.

Gan Ning said again, "If the general can trust me, I might as well lead my old subordinates to sneak into Jiangxia City and then go to join the Huang Zu!"

"I think he will not be suspicious. At that time, I will be an insider in the city and look for an opportunity to kill the Huang Zu. If the general leads the army to attack the city, then will the general be at his fingertips?"

After hearing his plan, Cao Peng immediately wanted to shout OK.

But he is a general and cannot express his emotions so easily.

So he still said calmly: "Xingba's plan is very good, I want to avenge you."

"If you can serve the general, don't refuse!" Gan Ning bowed.

"Okay, then I'll send some of my good men of Jinyiwei to you and enter the city. You can act according to the opportunity!" Cao Peng said.

Gan Ning was overjoyed when she heard this. She knew that the Jinyiwei under Cao Peng was very strong.

Especially for such assassination, it is especially good.

After Gan Ning took the order and left, Zhang Liao looked at his back and couldn't help asking: "General, why do you believe this person so much?"

Cao Peng smiled and said, "It's like believing in you, don't worry, I won't read it wrong."

After hearing what Cao Peng said, Zhang Liao felt much more relieved.

...

The atmosphere in Jiangxia City is very dull.

Zhuge Liang felt that if he continued like this, he and Liu Qi were likely to be captured by Cao's army.

Since his ambush plan was rebeled, Zhuge Liang has completely lost his reputation.

Huang Zu took this opportunity to worry that his subordinates were doing something, and tried to regain Jiangxia's initiative.

He even wanted to drive Liu Qi away from Jiangxia.

Zhuge Liang of Octavian thought that he and Liu Qi would be killed sooner or later, so he discussed escaping.

"Sir, after leaving Jiangxia, where can we settle down?" Liu Qi asked.

Zhuge Liang smiled and gently shook the goose-feather fan, "Young Master, don't care about the gains and losses of a city and a place. After we leave Jiangxia, we will go to Changsha and stay there for a while. I will write to my brother who is an official in Dongwu. Then we will lead our army to Jiangdong."

Liu Qi was already a little unconfident. Although Zhuge Liang was always calm, he was already suspicious of this person's strategy.

...

No words all night.

The next day, the prefect of Jiangxia Huang Zu brought troops to meet Liu Qi and Zhuge Liang.

He has been in Jiangxia for many years and is very powerful.

It was just because of Liu Qi's identity, so he was willing to be Liu Qi's subordinate in name.

This harmonious state is because Cao Cao is already in an army.

If it weren't for the existence of Cao Cao, he wouldn't have taken Liu Qi, a stinky boy, seriously.

After entering, Huang Zu saw Zhuge Liang and stood behind Liu Qi, while Liu Qi looked depressed.

"The Cao army has already accumulated Xiakou, the gateway of Jiangxia. This is because there are natural barriers, so they have not launched an attack for the time being."

"For the sake of the current plan, please ask the eldest son to decide quickly!"

Huang Zu no longer had any meaning of superiority and inferiority when he spoke.

Under such a critical situation, Liu Qi was so scared that he kept looking at Zhuge Liang.

"this……"

Zhuge Liang took a step forward, gently shaking the goose feather fan and said, "General, Jiangxia is now in danger. Mr. Liu Qi is the only little bit of bone and blood of the first lord, so he must not make any mistakes."

When Huang Zu heard this, he frowned, "But Cao's army is powerful, and on the battlefield, there is no eye-catching swords, how can I guarantee it..."

Zhuge Liang interrupted directly: "Hey, General, after thinking about it, I have decided to retreat to Guiyang, Changsha with the eldest son, so I will leave it to the general to guard it!"

Huang Zu never expected that Zhuge Liang would say this, saying that he would return Jiang Xia's initiative to him.

"What the sir said is that this place is too dangerous. You can retreat to the south. It's also good. Let's leave it to the future to guard it!" Huang Zu's attitude immediately changed 180 degrees.

After all, Liu Qi and Zhuge Liang are leaving, so he might as well be more respectful.

As for whether they want to surrender or resist to the end after these two people leave, no one can control it.

Huang Zu left happily, while Liu Qi was covered in sorrow.

I felt very uncomfortable when I thought that Jiang Xia, whom I was expected to occupy, wanted to give it up like this.

Although Zhuge Liang told him not to care about the gains and losses of a city and a place, what can I do if I go to Changsha?

The prefect there is not a good man, at most he will keep himself for the sake of his father.

As for the dominance of the city, it is impossible to get involved in it.

Although Liu Qi is incompetent, he still has this self-knowledge.

But for the sake of the present, he could only listen to Zhuge Liang.

After all, Zhuge Liang still has some solutions. If he had let himself deal with it, everything would have been stopped long ago.

"Young Master, don't think too much, go and prepare!"

"I understand, sir..."

After just one day of preparation, Zhuge Liang and Liu Qi led 3,000 troops to the land of Jiangxia.

Originally, they had only more than 2,000 remnants. Seeing that they were poor, Huang Zu sponsored them a little more.

"Young Master, don't worry, I have me in Jiangxia, so I will never let him succeed in Cao's army!" Huang Zu bowed and said.

Liu Qi had to smile bitterly and perfunctorily with him. How could he not know that after he left, the land of Jiangxia would naturally be the world of the royal family, and he would do whatever he wanted.
