The Legend of Yuan Yao in the Three Kingdoms

Therefore, Yuan Yao knew very well that Liu Xun's begging for Jiang Xia must not be able to get any advantage, but it is very likely to be at a disadvantage.

Immediately he asked: "Since that's the case, please go to Lujiang to help General Liu!"

Yuan Shu smiled and said, "My son is really brave, but Liu Zitai's courage is extraordinary, so don't worry."

Yuan Yao also knew that although Huang Zu was strong, according to Liu Biao's strategic goal of defending Jingzhou, it was impossible to break through Lujiang.

But the opportunity must not be missed, and if we don’t hurry up now, when Yuan Shao pacifies the north and Cao Cao welcomes Emperor Han, he will no longer be able to face Liu Biao with all his strength.

That is to say, he said: "I know General Liu's bravery, but staying with Shouchun is just a waste of time. In the land of Jiangdong, there are also talented and loyal people who will help you. I don't need to worry about it. If you don't go to Lujiang, you can grow long." some insight."

Seeing Yuan Yao's eagerness to fight, Yuan Shu had no choice but to agree: "Since Yao'er begs for orders like this, I certainly don't want to obstruct them. However, the land of Lujiang is no better than Jiangdong, Yao'er still needs to listen to Liu Zitai's words more."

Yuan Yao understood Liu Xun's position in the army, so he agreed, and then he didn't stop, and led soldiers and horses, and summoned Lu Su from Danyang, and went straight to Lujiang.

As for Chen Gui's letter, he gave it to Chen Deng casually, and just ignored it.

Chapter 115 Straight to the Lujiang River

Lujiang.

The prefect Liu Xun began to have constant friction with Jiangxia Huangzu after receiving Yuan Shu's transfer order.

However, both sides have plenty of soldiers and food, and they have no tricks and tricks, so no one can do anything for a while.

At this time, in Liu Xun's tent, there was a scribe standing beside him, with single eyelids, straight back and hands down.

But I heard the scribe say: "Now the general has sent his young master to lead an army into Lujiang. The general should wait for the young master to lead the troops to the queen and attack Jiangxia together."

Liu Xun listened but responded: "Zi Yang, my son has won many victories in Jiangdong, how can I fall behind him. I want to rectify the army in the near future, and then attack Jiangxia!"

It turns out that this scribe is Liu Ye and Liu Ziyang.

Liu Ye listened to Liu Xun's words, and immediately advised: "The land of Jiangxia has many waterways and complex terrain. It is close to the Yangtze River. It can be relied on by the navy to harass and rush to help. It is difficult to seize it without a large army. If the general goes here, he can win for a while, but he will not be able to win." Keep it up, it's better to wait for the son's army to arrive and defeat it!"

But Liu Xun just didn't listen, he just said: "Why do you need your son to come here, I can win by myself!"

After all, he only led the army to attack Jiangxia and left Liu Ye to guard the city.

So when Yuan Yao arrived at Lujiang, he only saw Liu Ye.

Yuan Yao naturally knew Liu Ye's talent, so he treated each other with courtesy since he entered the city, and it was because of Liu Ye's goodwill.

Speaking of which, Liu Ye is also a member of the royal family of the Han Dynasty, a descendant of Liu Yan, the son of Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu's son Fuling King.

So I said earlier that the name of the clan of the Han family was really a bad street in the late Eastern Han Dynasty.

Of course, whether this is the royal family has nothing to do with Yuan Yao, Yuan Yao just fancy his talent.

I remember that Liu Ye seems to be able to improve the catapult

In the battle of Guandu, it seems that he built a thunderbolt car, which can be regarded as a "scientist" in the late Han Dynasty.

It's just that it takes a little bit to get a good impression, and you can't come up and force people to hand over the improved blueprints.

But Yuan Yao said to Liu Ye: "Now that General Liu has gone to Jiangxia, I rush to help as soon as possible, what does Zi Yang think?"

Liu Ye didn't expect that Yuan Yao would attach so much importance to himself as soon as he entered Lujiang, and asked him for advice directly.

It was also the first time I saw this young master from the east of the Yangtze River, and immediately responded: "Now that the young master's army has arrived, Jiangxia must be aware of it. You are not familiar with the terrain of Jiangxia, and there are many waterways in Jiangxia, so it is inevitable that you will be at a disadvantage. , why don't we wait for General Liu to return before we make plans."

Yuan Yao nodded and said: "Zi Yang's words are justified, I'm afraid it's General Liu who won't withdraw his troops."

Lu Suli on the side responded: "My lord is right, if Jiang Xia knows that we have arrived, then eunuch Liu will also know. Since he knows we are here, the eunuch will not withdraw his troops, but will expect us to rush to help him .If the son only stays with Lujiang, it may not be appropriate."

But Liu Ye said: "Zi Jing's words are wrong. If the prefect knows that he is invincible, he will retreat back to Lujiang. How can he refuse to withdraw his troops?"

Yuan Yao did not expect that he would encounter difficulties when he arrived in Lujiang.

For the first time, there was a difference of opinion among the counselors in his family.

I also realized that it was not easy for Yuan Shao.

There are too many counselors here, if they have the same opinion, it's okay to work together, but if each person has one opinion, it's really embarrassing.

And in Yuan Benchu's family, the counselors tried to undermine each other every day.

But Yuan Yao also knew that this moment was definitely not the time to be indecisive, and it was time for him to make a decision.

Immediately said: "No matter what, since I have arrived at Lujiang, I must not move."

Yuan Yao also introduced to Liu Ye as he said: "Under my camp, Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin are all familiar with water warfare. Although there are many waterways in Jiangxia, it doesn't matter."

Naturally, Liu Ye had heard about Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin, and knew that they were born water thieves, so they would have no problem dealing with ordinary rivers and lakes.

He only said: "However, Jiangxia's terrain is really complicated, so you must not rush into it. The Lujiang army is more or less familiar with Jiangxia, but now they are all gone with the prefect, and no one can listen to them!"

"Just let the two of you be more cautious. When you join forces with Liu Taishou, you can advance or retreat, and then make a long-term plan!"

Seeing that Yuan Yao had made a decision, Liu Ye had no choice but to give up.

After thinking for a while, he suggested: "Since you want to send troops, why don't you go straight to Zhu County. Zhu County is close to Shaxian, so you can set up a camp here and rush to help the eunuch!"

Yuan Yao looked at Lu Su, but saw that Lu Su also nodded, and immediately said: "If that's the case, then act accordingly!"

Immediately raised the account and ordered the troops, and with Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin as the vanguard, he led five thousand soldiers and horses and went straight down to Zhu County.

Lead the Chinese army and follow closely behind.

Lu Su and Liu Ye were in charge of grain transportation in Lujiang.

...

Jiangxia.

Huang Zu knew that it was not only Liu Xun who came to attack him, but even the son of the Yuan family, who was in the limelight recently, came to Lujiang, so he immediately asked the warlord Su Fei to discuss.

But I heard Su Fei say: "If it's only Liu Xun, it's nothing more than that, we can't do anything to us, but now we have strong reinforcements, we still need to be cautious in responding."

Huang Zu also had a serious expression when he heard it.

Today's Huang Zu killed Sun Jian a few years ago because of his high spirits, not the old and fatuous Huang Zu in Jian'an 12 years ago.

Now that Yuan Yao is in the limelight, everyone knows that he has pacified the four counties in Jiangdong, how could Huang Zu despise him, and immediately responded: "Yes, if I want to ask Liuzhou Mu for help, I might not be able to resist it if I rely on Jiangxia alone. "

Su Fei immediately agreed when he heard it: "It should be so!"

After thinking about it, he said again: "Although we need to ask the state shepherd for help, we should use strong generals to defend the border."

Huang Zu listened and glanced at Su Fei, and said coldly, "I don't know what other strong generals there are in Jiang Xia?"

But Su Fei replied very seriously: "Gan Ning!"

"Although Gan Ning is rough and fierce and easy to kill, he is quick-witted and strategic. He cares less about wealth and respects soldiers. He can raise healthy children generously, and healthy children are happy to use their lives. To keep them guarding the border, they must be approached by a large army!"

Gan Ning?

Huang Zu's complexion changed when he heard this, and he said directly: "Gan Ning? It's just a bandit, how can he guard the land?"

It was inevitable that Huang Zu looked down on Gan Ning.

As a member of the Jingzhou family, the Anlu Huang clan in Jiangxia, they must not have a good impression of Gan Ning, who was once a bandit.

After hearing this, Su Fei quickly persuaded him: "General, in this chaotic world, we can no longer remember his birth. Don't you see that the fourth generation and third father of Yuan's family, even Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin were also highly valued, let alone us."

In fact, there is a big difference between the births of Gan Ning and Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin. Gan Ning was born as a local tyrant in Berkshire, with a wealthy family background and was used to a luxurious lifestyle since childhood.

Otherwise, there is no way to show off wealth like "Jinfan".

It's just that the name of the fourth generation and third father of the Yuan family has come into play again.

Although Huang Zu is from a noble family, he is incomparable with Yuan's family. With this comparison, he can accept Gan Ning in his heart, and asked in a buzzing voice: "So Gan Ning really has such talent?"

But Su Fei responded immediately: "Gan Xingba is brave enough to win the three armies, diligent and brave, enough to stand on one side!"

Huang Zu listened slightly, looked at Su Fei's earnestness, and said reluctantly: "In that case, let him guard Zhu County instead."

Su Fei immediately took the order and left.

So Huang Zu asked Liu Biao for help, and at the same time ordered Gan Ning to enter Zhu County to keep Yuan Yao away.

The whole Jiangxia and Lujiang River are in a piece, and the troops are frequently mobilized. It is tit-for-tat, and the big battle is coming!

Chapter 116 Gan Xingba vs. Zhou Youping

Zhu County.

After entering the barracks, Gan Ning concealed his arrogance a little bit.

As far as this attire is concerned, it is a little different from Berkshire's time. At least the bird feathers are not placed on the head, but the habit of wearing bells is retained.

However, Gan Ning is actually Gan Ning.

Temperament is irritable, and when angry, he will beat or kill people at every turn, and only do things according to his own preferences.

Otherwise, he wouldn't be a Jinfan thief when he was young.

Now under the order of Huang Zu, he leads troops to settle in Zhu County, but he doesn't pay much attention to the upcoming opponent.

Mr. Jiangdong Xiaolang?

snort!

It's just a child!

Contemptuously, Gan Ning was not slack at all in this platoon.

Not far from Zhu County, there is a ferry named Dongkou Ferry.

Gan Ning set up a water fort here to prevent the enemy from coming up from the ferry.

Another large army is stationed in Zhu County.

...

The surface of the river is winding, and the front of Dongkou Ferry is sparkling, like thousands of silver snakes swimming.

Gan Ning stood in the water village, looking into the distance.

The surface of the river is calm and calm. If you look far, you can see far away.

Gan Ning had a premonition in his heart that the enemy would either not come or come from this ferry.

Just thinking that way, suddenly saw a light boat going down the river in front of him.

Gan Ning knew that this was his scout, his heart moved, he let go of the gate of the village to let him in.

"General! The enemy navy is not far ahead, heading straight for the ferry!"

"How many people are there?"

"There are hundreds of warships, including buildings and boats!"

"What banner is it playing?"

"Zhou, Jiang Banner!"

Gan Ning made up his mind when he heard this.

I'm afraid it's the two water thieves named Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin under Yuan Yao's tent.

Just listening to what my scout said, there are quite a few enemy troops coming, if we stick to this water village, we may not be able to hold it.

Immediately, he said sharply: "Open the village to meet the enemy, and let me meet those two water thieves!"

The waterways in the land of Jiangxia are winding, and there is no shortage of warships.

As soon as the water village was opened, dozens of warships were going upstream!

Gan Ning stood at the bow of the boat, with chains wrapped around his waist, holding a pair of halberds, his eyes were a little arrogant and enthusiastic, as if looking forward to the upcoming battle.

Bystanders looked at it and felt that it was exuding a vigorous fighting spirit.

...

After walking for half an hour, I finally faintly saw the warship opposite.

Gan Ning immediately yelled, "Boat together!"

Immediately, someone on the boat raised the semaphore, and then all the boats followed suit, and even someone on the small boat was waving the flag.

Seeing that the enemy ship was approaching, Gan Ning took off the chain lock from his waist, flung it out suddenly, and only heard a "pa", and was firmly fastened to the side of the opposite ship.

The two ships are getting closer and closer, and they are connected by chains, which means that no one can avoid the other.
