After expressing his exclamation, Huang Zu naturally began to think about it. Don't forget, the reason why he is here now is to take back Jiangxia!
However, Huang Zu was not like Sun Quan, he still tended to be more cautious.
"Recently, I have sent more scouts over to inquire about the movements of the Jiangdong Army. If I were Sun Quan, I would definitely shrink the front line now to prevent internal changes, and then find an opportunity to negotiate with the Demon Sect. The Demon Sect paid such a high price to capture Sun Ce. We won't hand people over so easily, this will definitely be a tug-of-war. Once the Sun family's front line shrinks, our opportunity will come!" Huang Zu said with a smile,
"Anyway, let's wait and see what happens."
Then, not long after.
"Report"
A soldier ran in quickly,
"General, there is movement from the Jiangdong Army over in Jiangxia!"
"What's going on?!" Huang Zu stood up in a hurry. Although Huang Zu had never fought against Sun Quan, he had fought against Sun Ce more than once or twice. Sun Ce was very fond of cheating, such as cheating to death not once or twice. So when he heard the news, Huang Zu couldn't help but feel a little nervous. Could it be that Another ploy? Could it be that Jiang Dongjun is coming again? !
"Their soldiers boarded the ship one after another. It seems that the formation is not small at all!" Xiaobing replied in a panic.
Probably the soldier's panic also affected Huang Zu, and Huang Zu felt a little uneasy in his heart, but he just said it.
"Don't panic. Don't panic." He didn't know whether he was comforting others or himself, "First let the soldiers prepare for the battle. Then immediately send people to Xiakou to have a look. Xiakou, it shouldn't be that easy. Breached."
"yes!"
Orders were passed down layer by layer, and Huang Zu's party entered a state of emergency preparation. Huang Zu, including Huang Zu, soon became unable to sit still and led his people to the port riverside to watch.
Then, not long after, I saw a small boat approaching quickly, and another soldier running from the small boat.
"Report"
"How's the situation up front?" Huang Zu took the initiative to step forward and asked.
The messenger soldier responded with joy, excited and loud,
"Report to the general! Jiangdong Army, they went down the river and returned to Jiangdong!!!"
"Seriously?!" Huang Zu couldn't suppress the ecstasy on his face. Not only him, but everyone around him had the same reaction.
A moment ago, I was still in a state of nervousness, always ready to fight, and even worried that I would die today. The next second, I suddenly told you that the war was won, the other side surrendered, and the war of resistance was won!
If you want to advance, suppress it first. Giving you the bad news first, then the good news, and letting you find out it was a false alarm is definitely more exciting than telling you the news directly!
"How far have they gone?" Huang Zu was not too excited at least.
"Seventy percent of the large ships docked in Jiangxia have sailed away. Moreover, every ship is full of soldiers." The messenger replied. In other words, this is not a pretense. The Jiangdong Army did not secretly retain people. Walk.
"Hahahaha!" Huang Zu looked up to the sky and laughed. After writing, he finally felt relieved, "It seems that the situation in Jiangdong is more serious than imagined. That boy Sun Quan, I'm afraid he has too much time to take care of himself."
"General, should we take advantage of this opportunity..." Someone next to him immediately suggested.
Huang Zu thought carefully for a while and finally shook his head.
"The people haven't gone far yet. If we attack at this time, if the other side gets the news, they will be able to fight back soon. Besides, we are all watching the opposite side all the time. Do you really think that there are no people from Jiangdong on our side? As long as our people move, the other side will quickly You can get the news. During this period of time, the mobilization of troops must be the time when Jiangxia is most vigilant, so it is not appropriate to take action."
As he spoke, Huang Zu smiled in a low voice,
"Not only can we not go to war, but we also need to let Jiangdong's army go with peace of mind. Send the order, today I will give a banquet to the whole army, and everyone should celebrate for me!"
"The general is wise!"
"Ha ha ha ha!"
Huang Zu returned to the camp amid loud laughter. However, as soon as he entered the camp, Huang Zu retreated, leaving only a few close followers, and his expression gradually became serious.
"You must act in the drama you are supposed to perform, and you must seize the opportunity you should have. Listen, you can eat as much fish and meat as you want later, but no one is allowed to give me alcohol! Tonight, I will take back Jiang Xia!" Huang Zu said.
Everyone's expressions froze.
"yes!"
On the bank of Jiangxia,
"I see, my lord is indeed more powerful."
Zhu Ran and his party, who had already boarded the merchant ship, admired as they looked at the warships heading towards the east of the Yangtze River. Since they had to give way to the military, they had to wait until these warships were finished before their merchant ships could pass.
Sun Quan smiled slightly and said,
"Let the news fly for a while. In this era, intelligence is the most important, but correspondingly, making a fuss about intelligence will have the best effect."
Having said this, Sun Quan looked at Zhu Ran seriously,
"So, do you understand what I mean?"
Zhu Ran was stunned for a moment, and then he thought about it.
"Lord, what do you mean, after we pass through Xiakou, we seize the ship and then prevent anyone from conveying information back?" Zhu Ran said immediately.
"Not bad, not bad." Sun Quan patted Zhu Ran's shoulder with satisfaction, "Don't say that our army will be discovered before they arrive at Xiakou. Just say that I cut off the iron rope and someone went back to report to Huang Zu immediately. So, No one can be let go, understand! I want our army to pass through Xiakou, and Huang Zu will still know nothing!"
Zhu Ran's face straightened,
"clear!"
"It doesn't matter whether you understand or not, the key is whether you can do it? The Yangtze River is so big, you only have one ship, and with so few people, can you stop all enemies from passing?" Sun Quan asked again emphatically. It can be said that this is the most critical link. Once it fails, it does not mean that Sun Quan will not be able to defeat Huang Zu, but that all his preparations will be in vain, and a surprise attack will become a frontal battle, with difficulty and casualties. It will improve a lot.
"I can do it! I will do it even if I die!" Zhu Ran shouted in a low voice, "My lord, there is still some distance between Xiakou and Huang Zu's garrison. I will go to Xiakou where I can't reach it. If we start to seize the ship again, most people will not think that there will be enemies behind them. In addition, the communication needs to be efficient, so the other party will only send a small boat. If I can't even intercept a small boat, then I will have no face to face Jiangdong!"
"Okay! This matter will be left to you! Do it well this time, and I will make up for what's your turn!" Sun Quan said. Zhu Ran was aware, not afraid of trouble, and remained calm. He was able to quickly analyze the situation and make arrangements. Sun Quan was reassured by entrusting this task to him.
"What about your side, my lord?" Zhu Ran couldn't help but ask. If he wanted to seize the ship, he would have to use people. Is it possible to let Sun Quan do it alone? Who can rest assured! Zhu Ran, what is his purpose of coming here this time?
"It's okay. After we passed Xiakou, I secretly entered the water. At this time, the enemy is the most lazy. With my underwater skills, I might be able to cut off the iron rope without anyone noticing me." Sun Quan said .
