"You mean, Jiangdong's army took the sea route?" Cao Cao asked.
"That's right." Guo Jia nodded, "Jiangdong is good at water warfare. It is said that their warships are getting stronger and stronger now. Although the sea route is dangerous, it may have been overcome by the Jiangdong people. Only when Jiangdong has opened up the sea route can they explain why they It can rob people and food."
After hearing this, Cao Cao quickly found a map and looked at it with a heavy expression.
"If this is true, then the entire Xuzhou, and even Liaodong, will be within the range that Jiangdong Army can directly attack! The most important thing is that the sea is vast and cannot be defended at all!"
"Not only that, Jiangdong warships may be able to sail directly into the Yellow River Basin!" Guo Jia reminded, "Although the waters of the Yellow River are not as conducive to navigation as the Yangtze River, it is still very possible for the Jiangdong Army to accidentally send out a surprise force. We must not Don’t be defensive.”
"I think Feng Xiao, you are a bit unfounded." At this time, Xun You said, "First of all, I agree with your point of view. The Jiangdong Army should indeed have taken the sea route, but I think this is a dangerous and dangerous move!"
"It's only once, so it may be dangerous, but if it succeeds twice in a row, it's probably not a fluke, right?" Guo Jia asked.
Xun You shook his head,
"Is Jiangdong dominating the Yangtze River just because their ships are strong? Who doesn't know how to build ships? The bigger reason is that they are familiar with the climate and water conditions of the Yangtze River! But the sea's changeable climate and complex water conditions, and Is it possible that the people of Jiangdong can figure it out once or twice?" Xun You said, "My lord, the reason why my subordinates think so is not without basis. Before this, Jiangdong has never used the sea route. In other words, this is Sun Quan's A secret that has been hidden all this time! Since it is a secret, why was it an outsider like Guan Yu who used it for the first time?"
"Gongda, are you saying that Sun Quan used Guan Yu to help him explore the road?" Cao Cao said.
"That's right!" I’m afraid only young people like Lu Meng who are eager to make meritorious deeds would dare to use it!”
Xun You clasped his fist at Cao Cao.
"Lord, I can guarantee that Sun Quan will never dare to send heavy troops to sea. Including the Yellow River Basin, if the Jiangdong Army who is not familiar with the water conditions of the Yellow River dare to come, they will definitely suffer the consequences!" After saying that, he paused and said in a deep voice. He said, "In comparison, my subordinates are more worried about Xu Du."
"Xu Du... It's very rare that Xun Yu can survive until now. No matter what the final result is, I will never blame him." Cao Cao sighed, obviously no longer optimistic about Xu Du.
"Well, Jiangdong is certainly terrible, but they may not be able to survive before the next autumn harvest due to food shortage. In any case, the Sun family has done us a great favor by cutting off Yuan Shao's arm in Xuzhou. I decided to take advantage of Yuan Shao's I haven’t regained my strength yet, so I’ll fight them to the death!”
"Fight to the death!"

Outside Xudu City, Jiangdong Army Camp,
Early this morning,
"Lord! Look, look at this!" Qiao Xuan hurried over and handed Sun Quan an urgent letter.
Sun Quan opened it and took a look, his face was filled with surprise, his eyes flashed, and he used the "make me think twice" skill for the first time today.
After a second of reality, Sun Quan came out of the illusion and looked at the letter in his hand, with the same expression as before——
It's true!
"Lord, what do you think we should do? If it's true, we can't wait." Qiao Xuan reminded Sun Quan that although it was such a big matter, they should think twice before acting, but it happened suddenly and they didn't have time to think about it.
The letter was naturally sent by the alliance of relatives and grandsons in Xudu City, and the content of the letter was completely unexpected. These people actually stole Emperor Xian out of the palace and were now running out of the city, asking Sun Quan for help!
Sun Quan's first reaction was that this was fake and was Xun Yu's plan. It was said that Emperor Xian was in the team, so Sun Quan did not dare to attack the city rashly, so he successfully sent the alliance of relatives and grandsons away from the city.
However, the illusion simulation just now told Sun Quan that all of this was actually true? ! Emperor Xian was really brought out!
What do you mean? Xun Yu risked his life and abandoned his commander to protect his car? Or are these people really that capable? Regardless of the truth, Sun Quan was at least certain that Emperor Xian was among this group of people.
At this time, Sun Quan had two choices before him. One, of course, is to support this group of people, but in this way, when all these people leave the city, Sun Quan will not have the chance to attack. Second, use this group of people to open the city gate and take the opportunity to attack. However, in this case, all those who are preparing to escape from the city, including Emperor Xian, will be blocked by Jiangdong's army rushing into the city and Cao's army chasing behind them. They will be defeated. Kill the dead souls for the two sabers!
To be honest, if you look at this matter alone, Sun Quan must think about it carefully. but,
"Let's go and provide cover. We must not make any mistakes! In addition, send someone to deliver a message to Cihang Jingzhai so that they can prepare the deal." Sun Quan made a quick decision. For Sun Deng, he could not let Emperor Xian die.
Qiao Xuan opened his mouth, wanting to persuade Sun Quan, but he couldn't. Alas, it would be difficult to give up this opportunity and capture Xudu again.

At the same time, Jingzhou,
"Zhai Master!"
"Greetings to the Master!" Elder Jing was surprised by the sudden appearance of Little Di Ni in front of her. At the inner gate of Cihang Jingzhai, isn't it true that he has completely lived in seclusion and ignored the big man?
"Elder Jing, I heard that you have a deal with Sun Quan?" Xiao Dini asked with a smile. Although she is still just a little girl, Elder Jing feels that she cannot see through the new master.
"Yes. I wonder what the master's instructions are?" Elder Jing asked. No matter what, Elder Jing always insisted that he was still a member of Cihang Jingzhai.
"If Sun Quan fulfills his agreement, the child will be returned to him." Xiaodini said.
Elder Jing frowned and snorted coldly,
"Why did the Lord say this? Do you think I will go back on my word?"
Are you worried that she won't keep her promise and make a special trip just for this?
"The elder misunderstood, I mean, just return the child to him." Xiao Di Ni looked at Elder Jing and said, with an innocent smile on his face.

After one day, the world was shaken.
Emperor Xian successfully escaped from Xudu and was welcomed into the Jiangdong camp by Sun Quan. From then on, Cao Cao lost the capital to hold the emperor hostage and command the princes!
Many people were happy and many were sad about this matter. Sun Quan didn't know which people were happy. Sun Quan only knew that he himself was sad.
Cihang Jingzhai sent Sun Deng back as promised. Judging from the time, Cihang Jingzhai was always ready and they were very sincere.
But there is bad news. The child who has been separated from Sun Quan since birth is in very poor health. If he hadn't heard Diao Chan tell him about it, Sun Quan would have thought that his son was abused in Cihang Jingzhai. But even though he was prepared, Sun Quan never expected that the child's health would be so bad! He could only use the Secret of Immortality to nurse Sun Deng back to health day and night. At the same time, he did not want to stay in the military camp with extremely poor conditions for a moment. Sun Quan wanted to send Sun Deng back to Wu County for good care as soon as possible.
However, this is not what really worries Sun Quan. What worries Sun Quan the most is something else.
He was tricked by Cihang Jingzhai!
