Two flowers bloomed, each with one branch. When Wang Hou was "full of flavor" in Xiangping City in the far north, Cao Cao also entered the peak highlight moment of his life on the edge of the Yangtze River.

It is not as exaggerated as the 800,000 Cao army in the Romance of the Romance. However, Qingzhou soldiers and naval forces were 30,000, Yuan's surrendered in Jizhou, and Yanzhou's own old troops also led 60,000. Together with the Cai Mao and Zhang Yun naval army surrendered in Jingzhou, there were a total of 200,000 troops.

In addition, there are indeed hundreds of thousands of people transporting food and wages behind them.

In fact, Wang Hou always had a question. The Southern Song Dynasty was quickly destroyed after being defeated by Mongolia in the Battle of Xiangyang. Before the Battle of Chibi, since General Cao had already taken down Fancheng in Xiangyang, why didn’t he transport troops to the south of the Yangtze River and fight against Sun and Liu by land? He had to confront Sun and Liu in Wulin, north of the Yangtze River, and use the navy to fight against the navy, and defeat the enemy’s strengths with almost all his shortcomings?

However, if he continues to take charge of logistics with the army this time, he will know a rough idea!

The biggest and most convenient mode of transportation in this era was water transportation. Cao Cao got Xiangyang and the main supply was derived from the savings of Liu Biao in Xiangyang for many years. The northern army did cross the Yangtze River, but this Yangtze River was the Han River tributary of the Yangtze River, and the main road of the Yangtze River had to travel one or two hundred kilometers southward.

Moreover, at this time, the main target of Cao's army was Liu Huangshu, so he divided his troops into two groups and led the army to chase south of the Han River, but still north of the Yangtze River. Cai Mao, Wen Pin, Yu Jin and Cao Ren led the main forces of the navy to march eastward along the Han River. The two groups gathered together and rushed towards Liu Bei's last stronghold, which was also the intersection of the Han River and the Yangtze River, Jiangxia.

But at this time, an unexpected change occurred. Zhuge's brother went east to Sun Wu and persuaded Sun Quan and Liu Bei's coalition forces. Zhou Yu sent troops from Chaisang to go upstream. At Chibi upstream of Xiakou, he happened to hit the main force of the General Cao army advancing along the Yangtze River. Facing the interception of Sun Wu's army, Cao's army was stuck in Wulin.

And the second reason for Cao Cao's failure in history was that the battle in Jingzhou was so smooth! Now he has an army of more than 200,000, and the Sun and Liu coalition forces on the opposite side only add 50,000 yuan, which makes Cao Cao feel that he can still easily defeat him.

Moreover, if the Sun and Liu coalition forces were annihilated at the Red Cliff, the south would be captured in one net. He could go east along the Yangtze River and go straight to Wujun without having to fight annoying guerrillas with Sun Quan in the dense river networks in the south of the Yangtze River. This was really a fatal temptation for Cao Cao, who was already in his fifties and eager to unify the world and change the dynasty with this glorious dynasty.

In the early morning, three or four miles away, a vast layer of river mist was filled with the spacious Yangtze River. The buildings and ships were locked together to form a water village, like a city on the river, eyeing the southward. Wang Hou probably should be proud here, because even though the battle was so good, Cao Cao still carried a set of bone porcelain tea sets in his hand, holding a white blue and white tea cup painted with plum blossoms, while savoring the tea, he was also holding a telescope to look at the Yangtze River.

"Prime Minister! General Cao Ren led the navy to the Daze between Wulin, Xiakou, and was intercepted by the Wu navy. He accused the Prime Minister of the prime minister and could not meet as scheduled!"

"I understand! Go down!"

There was a twist between Xiakou and Wulin. Cao Ren and others were the main navy of Cao's army, so Zhou Yu naturally didn't want him to meet with him! If Cao's army wanted to pass through this narrow shape, it would take a lot of arms.

However, Cao Cao was still not worried at all, because in Cao Ren's army, not only was the Jingzhou Navy that was comparable to the Jiangnan Navy, but also the Qingzhou Navy, which was considered his main force. The two strong forces were united, and he didn't believe that Zhou Yu could stop these two elite troops with a small Zhou Yu.

It was really a coincidence that the messenger had just been sent out. In the vast foggy Jiangnan, bursts of rapid war drums suddenly sounded violently. Suddenly, small boats of Dongwu were filled with soldiers, and they were heading towards Cao's water camp with the sound of rustling water. Less than a hundred meters outside the water camp, they began to line up, attracting Cao's soldiers to rush to the deck on the edge of the water camp.

The telescope is not working well. Wu is too strong, and it is impossible to have thermal imaging these days. With his eyes squinted, Mr. Cao could only see the dense Wu Jun standing on a hut boat provocatively clamoring.

"Prime Minister, the people of Wu are so arrogant. The last general is willing to lead the navy to fight and teach these rude people a lesson for the Prime Minister!"

The Jingzhou Navy was not short of men. Looking at this scene, Feng Kai, the commander of the Yangtze River Navy, came out in anger and took the lead in holding his fists to fight.

However, holding the telescope and unable to see clearly, Cao Cao shook his head solemnly.

"The people of Wu are proficient in water wars. Now the Yangtze River is covered with fog again. I don't know if there are ambushes behind the fog! Just repel them by arrows, and there is no need to take risks!"

"I will obey the order!"

It is worthy of being a well-trained Northern Army. The military boots stepped on the deck and made nice and neat crackling sounds. In an incense stick, the dense archers had already rushed to the edge of the deck. Wang Hou was proud again. At this time, the archers of Cao's army were equipped with Rizhao pulley bows. As the pulleys creaked, the heavy steel bows were neatly pulled apart. Then, a cluster of arrows were covered with rain of arrows and shot out.

However, at this moment, facing the overwhelming rain of arrows, under a lonely lamp, two people were drinking Jiangnan sake gracefully together.

Looking at the scarecrow at the bow of the boat, a layer of thick arrows thrust into one side, and the heavy arrows pressed the boat into one side, full of surprise, Lu Su couldn't help but smile bitterly and clasped his fists.

"Sir, a wise man, is so easy to collect a lot of arrows from Prime Minister Cao, I admire him!"

"Using the Prime Minister's arrow, shoot back to these northern barbarians. If the Prime Minister finds out, I don't know what a wonderful expression it would be!"

However, today, Brother Zhuge is not as handsome and free as in the TV series. Instead, he was a little uneasy. He took a sip and couldn't help but put the cup and mention it again.

"Zi Jing! Now the Marquis of Wu and my lord are both detrimental and prospering! Three years ago, the battle between Wujun, what happened? Can't you talk to someone yet?"

"Mr. Kong Ming, it's not that I can't, but Su really doesn't know it! In that battle, Su served the Marquis of Wu in Jianye. He only saw the enemy cavalry outside the city, and the Northern Barbarians who responded to the battle were all Grand Governor Zhou Yu! The Grand Governor returned to the court in this battle. "

"But Mr. Kong Ming don't worry, even if Chen Yuanlong of Guangling is like this, he will still be the governor..."

Boom!

"What sound!"

Before Lu Su could finish his boasting words, a thunderous thunder broke out, and then, in his incredible gaze, the flat ship with arrows on one side was folded from the center of the ship.

The splashed wood chips stumbled on the bow of the boat, and Wu Jun was covered in blood and fell into the water. Then, in the screams of the Wu people, the entire boat was like the Titanic, with the bow rising upwards and sinking into the water.

"What the hell is this? The magic trick?"

Brother Zhuge also stood up suddenly. In his ears, after the thunderbolt, there were waves of whistling and heavy sounds, which were very different from the flying arrows, and were heard in a dense manner.
