In the court.
Yang Ling, Zhang Liao, Gan Ning, and Huang Zhong were discussing the next action.
"General, the Jiangdong soldiers who escaped from the water stronghold were basically intercepted by the last general."
Zhang Liaohui reports.
"Thank you General Wenyuan for your hard work."
Yang Ling praised with a smile.
Since it was a surprise attack on Jianye, the news couldn't be allowed to leak out.
Even if there are some fish that slip through the net and escape from the mountains and forests, it will take at least two or three days to send the news back to Jianye.
Therefore, Yang Ling and the others must speed up their progress and rush to the city before Jianye gets the news!
"I didn't expect that by capturing the water stronghold, there would be unexpected gains."
Huang Zhong stroked his beard and said with a smile,
"With Sun Quan's sister in hand, we can attack Jianye by surprise, but we will be a little more sure!"
Yang Ling's original plan was to imitate Lu Meng and sneak attack Guan Yu, using a move to cross the river in white clothes.
But Cao Jun did not have enough ships, so it was not easy to disguise himself as a merchant.
So after several people discussed it, Yang Ling finally decided to use another method.
After capturing Ruxu Water Village, Cao Jun put on the costumes of Jiangdong soldiers and horses, took their warships, and went to attack Jianye.
Although this plan is much more feasible than crossing the river in white clothes, the risk is still considerable.
After all, Jiangdong's troops and horses cannot be mobilized without military orders, and Cao Jun can easily be seen through.
But Yang Ling and the others were dozing off, and God sent pillows!
Now that Sun Shangxiang has been captured, Cao Jun can escort her back to Jianye in the name of Jianye!
"Send the order and let the soldiers rest early. We will set off at noon!"
Yang Ling ordered.
"Here!"
Several people took the order and left.
Yang Ling thought for a while and walked towards the room where Sun Shangxiang was detained.
"I've seen the general!"
Seeing Yang Ling's arrival, the soldiers guarding him saluted respectfully.
"Open the door, I have something to discuss with Miss Sun."
Yang Ling ordered.
When he walked into the house, Sun Shangxiang, who had already heard it, looked at him warily.
"What do you want, you pervert?"
"Don't worry, Miss Sun. I just want to discuss something with you."
Yang Ling said righteously.
"What's up?"
Sun Shangxiang still did not let down his guard, folding his hands on his chest.
"I heard that Jianye is very beautiful and I would like to go sightseeing. I hope Miss Sun can accompany me. What do you think of Miss Sun?"
Although Yang Ling said it nicely, Sun Shangxiang was not a fool. She naturally understood that Yang Ling had ulterior motives.
"You pervert, you must have bad intentions! Don't expect me to promise you!"
Yang Ling frowned when he heard this.
You little girl, you are a pervert at every turn, I really give you face!
If I hadn't thought about dealing with your father Sun Jian, I would be planning to attack Jianye next, but I must let you know how powerful the pervert is!
His face sank and he said coldly,
"Miss Sun, I'm just here to inform you. You have to do it even if you can do it, and you have to do it if you don't!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Yang Ling ignored Sun Shangxiang, turned around and walked away!
By noon, Cao's soldiers, who had finished their rest, regrouped.
A small group of soldiers was left to guard the prisoners and take care of the wounded, while the rest of the soldiers boarded the warship.
As the youngest woman in the Sun family, Sun Shangxiang was really loved by Sun Quan.
Her ship was called Feifeng, but Sun Quan ordered it to be built.
Although it is not as dark as the Feiyun, it is still a giant, enough to accommodate two thousand people!
Yang Ling stepped onto Sun Shangxiang's ship without hesitation, and Zhang Liao and others followed behind him.
Cao Jun mobilized several other Jiangdong battleships in the water village, and then loaded all Cao Jun's troops.
After everything was ready, Yang Ling gave the order to set off without hesitation!
As the heavy sluice gate was slowly pulled up by Sergeant Cao's soldiers, Feifeng took the lead to leave the water village and go down the river!
…
I have to say that Sun Shangxiang's name is really useful in Jiangdong.
The fleet of Yang Ling and others went south along the Ruxushui River. After entering the Yangtze River, they encountered several Jiangdong warships patrolling and guarding.
After seeing the Feifeng, those warships not only had no intention of inspecting it, but also took the initiative to give way.
Seeing the Jiangdong warships passing by one after another and displaying flags to express respect for Sun Shangxiang, Yang Ling couldn't help but be happy!
Jianye is not far from Ruxu Water Village. After Yang Ling and his party entered the Yangtze River, they arrived at Jianye in less than half a day under favorable conditions.
The river outside Jianye City is vast, and countless ships are waiting in line.
Only after Jiangdong completes the inspection can they enter the dock near the city and dock.
When they saw Fei Feng returning, two warships came immediately.
After getting close to the Feifeng, the soldiers on top said respectfully,
"But the eldest lady is back?"
"That's right, the eldest lady is here, why don't you get out of the way?"
Yang Ling said with a straight face.
"I will clear the way for the eldest lady."
The soldiers did not dare to neglect, and immediately turned the bow of the ship, shouting loudly at the merchant ships in front, asking them to get out of the way.
With their help, Yang Ling and his party successfully entered the dock near Jianye City.
It has only been a few years since Sun Quan ordered the construction of Jianye City, so many parts of Jianye City are still very crude.
But despite this, it already has some signs of Jinling being "extremely magnificent and unparalleled in ancient and modern times" in later generations.
The pier was filled with merchant ships from all directions, and people spoke various dialects.
Whether it is Shu brocade, Moutai or perfume from the north, you can buy it here.
Its prosperity is no less than that of Xudu, Luoyang and other places.
After the Feiyun docked, officials and generals from Jianye immediately received the news and came to visit Sun Shangxiang.
Fortunately, Yang Ling had already anticipated this situation. Before setting off, he ordered Sergeant Cao's soldiers to change into Jiangdong Army's armor.
Then the strangers Huang Xu and Zhang Hu were asked to come forward and use Sun Shangxiang's fatigue as an excuse to send all Sun Quan's subordinates away.
Sun Shangxiang has always been unruly and domineering, so those people didn't think much about it. They just exchanged a few words and stood up to leave.
After they left, Yang Ling had Sun Shangxiang tied up, stuffed into a sedan, and carried off the Feifeng.
Along the way, Yang Ling and the others used Sun Shangxiang's banner, but no one stopped them, allowing them to arrive at Sun Shangxiang's mansion unimpeded.
After controlling all the attendants and maids in the mansion, Yang Ling and his party finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"I didn't expect that Miss Sun's name would be so useful!"
Gan Ning couldn't help but exclaimed.
"Yeah, until now I still feel like I'm in a dream!"
Zhang Liao also smiled and nodded.
"General, what are we going to do next?"
Huang Zhong looked at Yang Ling.
Yang Ling touched his chin and fell into deep thought.
Although he had planned to cross the river in white, he did not expect that the action would go so smoothly, which made him a little confused.
