Zhou Yu has been very busy in the past two days. Of course, it is not to deal with Guo Jia. To be honest, the battle at Huaihe River has no meaning for Zhou Yu. Actually, he is still squatting here mainly to satisfy Sun Ce's fighting desire.
Otherwise, Zhou Yu would have led his troops back now. After all, Zhou Yu knew very well that in the current situation, he could decide the world by himself, which would ruin his righteousness. Guan Yu and Guo Jia were destined not to cross the Huaihe River and stationed in Huainan, because they would definitely die if they were beaten by him. He could only escape alone.
"Have Gongyi and Shiyuan almost dredged the rivers in Kuaiji and southern Yuzhang?" Zhou Yu asked, looking at the intelligence coming from behind.
Unlike building rivers in the north, the south, especially the south where there are many rivers, cannot be called building rivers, it can only be called dredging.
"General Sun said that the dredging has been completed. The two counties of Guiyang and Lingling in Jingnan still need some time to be dredged. The prefect Cangwu and the prefect Yulin of Jiaozhou are already on the line. However, compared to the prefect Yulin, the prefect Cangwu has already taken the initiative to contact We are here." Lu Fan reported the current information to Zhou Yu.
"Well, Zhongmou did a good job, Cangwu Prefect Wu Ju?" Zhou Yu thought for a while and said, "Kill him when the time comes."
Lu Fan looked at Zhou Yu with a puzzled expression. This was an internal attack. He could be killed as soon as he said it. Didn't this chill the hearts of those who surrendered?
"Out of ten, they have bad intentions, so it's better to deal with them. If you think about our current situation for a moment, you should know that Wu Ju should not be attached to us from any angle." Zhou Yu explained after a few moments.
"I'll deal with this matter later." Lu Fan thought for a moment and understood, "There won't be any tail left by then."
"Leave it to you. Have there been any movements recently between Guan Yu and Guo Jia across the river? Hasn't Gan Ning, whom I asked to pay attention to, shown up yet?" Zhou Yu asked while browsing the political strategy.
"They are still logging, but recently they have not built many ships, and they have begun to build pontoons at the narrow mouth of Huai River." Lu Fan said with a hint of ridicule, "So far, they have only built more than a hundred steps. To that extent, It’s basically impossible to repair it anymore.”
"Huh?" Zhou Yu raised his head and frowned obviously. Although Guo Jia didn't understand things like water fighting and river crossing, he didn't make such an obvious mistake. What's even more incredible is that building a pontoon bridge where the water flow is so fast is What an incredible idea.
"What does Guo Fengxiao want to do?" Zhou Yu pressed his temples and said with a slight headache, "Are you giving up on yourself or do you want to confuse us?"
"It is impossible for them to cross the Huaihe River without a boat, and the small boats they built now have no meaning at all under our patrol. Moreover, the large boats we patrol back and forth have also been divided into defense zones at your request, Gongjin." Lu Fan looked at Zhou Yu with admiration on his face.
After Zhou Yu moved the camp to Guan Yu, their camp was not moved at all, but the patrol range of each ship was divided.
Although this seems to be a lot more rigid, the result is that if Guan Yu wants to cross the river, he must either take a boat more than 20 miles downstream from Zhou Yu and more than 40 miles downstream from Guan Yu, or he must go more than 20 miles upstream from Guan Yu and upstream from Zhou Yu. It’s more than forty miles away by boat.
Zhou Yu said that his patrols were not arranged that far, but the problem was that if Guan Yu led his soldiers, on the one hand, he would not be able to move sixty miles back and forth and cross the river and still have the ability to fight Zhou Yu, who was waiting for work. On the other hand, it was also because the military advisor was Guo Yu. Jia was not Xun You. He led his army to move sixty miles without being discovered. This was not something a normal person could do.
In short, Zhou Yu's approach is doomed that if Guan Yu wants to cross the river to fight Zhou Yu, he can only cross the river where Zhou Yu patrols with boats. Otherwise, he will either have no fighting power after crossing, or if he moves too far, his intention will be discovered.
It's not like everyone is like Xia Houyuan, who can lead his men to run for dozens of miles and still get into battle quickly. Guan Yu's legionary talent is not good at running.
"Don't underestimate Guo Jia, and don't underestimate Guan Yu. Not to mention other things, the quality shown in responding to our attacks before has been far superior to our previous opponents." Zhou Yu shook his head and warned.
Perhaps because of Lu Fan's expression, Zhou Yu couldn't say anything to such a veteran, "Just send someone to keep an eye on the other side. Remember to notify me if any problems arise."
"Here!" Lu Fan turned around and left without saying anything after hearing Zhou Yu's arrangement.
"Build a pontoon bridge?" Zhou Yu said to himself with a hint of curiosity, "Guo Jia, do you really think you can build a pontoon bridge on the Huaihe River? Even if I can't send ships to patrol the narrow mouth due to water issues, but Every hour, there will be a big ship upstream or downstream looking over there, I am really curious..."
While thinking about it, Zhou Yu took out a chess piece from the chess set aside and pressed it directly on the table, as if there was the unique Tianyuan position there.
Zhou Yu played with the chess pieces in his hand and felt something in his heart.
"Come here!" Zhou Yu shouted outside the tent, and soon a personal guard wearing armor appeared in front of Zhou Yu.
Zhou Yu immediately took out a piece of paper and began to write and draw on it, then closed it and said, "Give this to General Wen."
"Here!" The guard put it away respectfully and then retreated.
"After this battle, the Huai River War will come to an end. The practice of trial matching can no longer be saved. It is a bit ugly to do it because we have lost our righteousness. It is better to expand our strength as soon as possible." Zhou Yu chuckled at this. He said, completely unconcerned about possible attacks.
"Hey, is it raining?" Guo Jia looked at the sky with a puzzled look. He clearly felt that it was pushed by the guy on the other side of the river, and it covered a very large area.
But Guo Jia was curious. You must know that Zhou Yu had been sweeping away the water vapor some time ago, as if he was ready to create a fire at any time, but now the weather suddenly changed and it started to rain. You must know that the impact of rainy nights on boats in the river is far greater than 6 way is bigger.
"Are you going to run?" Guo Jia thought with an unhappy look on his face. He finally had to do something tomorrow, but Zhou Yu was actually planning to run away in the rain. "Don't you like rain? You want to run, hehehehe!"
As he spoke, Guo Jia followed Zhou Yu and increased his efforts. In an instant, the rain became heavier and more exaggerated, and the scope was far beyond Zhou Yu's expectation.
