Becoming stronger from cutting Hu and Cao Cao

Chapter 315 Soldiers approach Fankou.

Xuzhou, Weishan County.

After Li Chenwo "rested" at home for two months, his health finally improved.Li Chen's health is just right, and he will immediately organize the army to prepare for war and send troops to Soochow.

Li Chen started with a total of 30 troops on the waterway, and claimed to be a 70 army to the outside world, officially marching into Soochow.

The Qin Army Navy has a total of ten fleets, and the main ship of each fleet is a huge chasing boat or a three-rail gunboat.Surrounding each main ship, there are many various small boats escorting them.

Soochow is a place that is easy to defend but difficult to attack. There are two major water systems, the Yangtze River and the Huaihe River, as natural barriers.In the previous life, among the Wei, Shu and Wu, this Wu had the longest support.After the Jin Dynasty won the world, it defeated Soochow.

As the saying goes, if you want to defeat magic, you can only use magic.Similarly, if you want to defeat the navy, you can only use the navy.In order to defeat Soochow, Li Chen deliberately built a cross-age navy.

In this battle, Li Chen is sure to win. Compared with the navy, how can Soochow compare with Li Chen's navy.It can be said that Li Chen's navy is more than an era ahead of the Soochow navy.Ships equipped with artillery can beat the navy of Soochow into a drowned Erha.

Three days later, Fankou.

Under the command of Zheng Chenggong, the Qin Army's navy sailed directly to the waters of Fankou. Thirty miles ahead, there were nine water villages owned by Zhou Yu, the governor of the Eastern Wu Dynasty.

This is Li Chen's 30 water army. The water army goes first, and the army can only watch from the shore.The army had to wait for the victory of the water army before the army could go ashore and attack the city.

After Zheng Chenggong drove the navy to Fankou, he did not directly attack Zhou Yu's water village. Zheng Chenggong was waiting for a fighter opportunity. What Zheng Chenggong wanted was when the Soochow navy gathered in Fankou. At that time, he wanted to wipe out the entire Soochow navy.

Fankou, Daying of Eastern Wu.

"Governor, the Qin army is deceiving people too much. They even parked less than [-] miles away from us. This is completely contemptuous of our Dongwu navy." Lu Xun said to Zhou Yu indignantly.

Seeing Lu Xun's anxious look, Zhou Yu was still calm and breezy.Zhou Yu asked Lu Xun, "Did you see Qin's ships?"

Lu Xun nodded and said, "I see."

"How about Qin's ships?" Zhou Yu continued to ask Lu Xun.

"Big, very big. The ten main ships in front are several times larger than our largest building ship."

"However, they don't have many ships, only about [-] ships. We have thousands of ships in Soochow. Our army will surely win this battle." Lu Xun said to Zhou Yu confidently.

There was no artillery during the Eastern Han Dynasty and the Three Kingdoms period. Artillery was only invented in the Song Dynasty and flourished in the Ming Dynasty.Therefore, Lu Xun didn't know what artillery was, nor did he know that he was in front of a giant ship equipped with artillery.Quantity is not an advantage at all.

"Trust, keep on trusting."

"As long as the Qin army doesn't take the initiative to attack, we will stick to the water fortress. After a few days, the camp will have enough arrows, and it won't be too late for us to take the initiative to attack." Zhou Yu said to Lu Xun.

Since Zhuge Liang sent the serial crossbow last time, the Zhuge Liannu was made well, but Wu Jun's arrow reserves were insufficient. These days, the military craftsmen in the camp were in a hurry and did not dare to delay for a moment.

At this moment, a soldier came to report from outside the tent: "Great Governor, Mr. Zhuge has arrived."

"What, Mr. Zhuge is here. Boyan, quickly follow me to meet you." Zhou Yu said to Lu Xun.

Since Zhuge Liang entered Soochow, it can be said that he has managed the rear of Soochow in an orderly manner.It stands to reason that if there is a war in the front, the rear should look a little chaotic.But since Zhuge Liang came, the rear has become more and more prosperous.

After Zhuge Liang came to Soochow, King Sun Jian of Wu praised him again and again.It is said that Zhuge Liang is Wolong, and they are facing the water in Dongwu, so this is the dragon entering the river, how can this not be prosperous.

Zhou Yu took Lu Xun to meet Zhuge Liang, and when they reached the shore, Zhuge Liang just got off the boat.

"Mr. Zhuge, now that the war is approaching, why are you here?" Zhou Yu said to Zhuge Liang.

Zhuge Liang showed an inscrutable smile on his face, and he said to Zhou Yu: "I see the governor, and I have something troubling in my heart."

Does Zhou Yu have anything to worry about?He does.Now, Zhou Yu wanted to fight Qin Jun, but he was unable to fight due to lack of bows and arrows. How could Zhou Yu not be bothered by this.

Zhou Yu thought, Mr. Zhuge, can he read minds?Why, he also knows what I think.

Zhuge Liang naturally doesn't know how to read minds, but since Zhuge Liang gave Zhou Yu the Zhuge Liannu.Zhuge Liang knew that Zhou Yu's bow and arrows must be insufficient this time, so he wanted to help Zhou Yu get the arrows early.

"Hey, yes, I have something on my mind." Zhou Yu said frankly to Zhuge Liang.

"Hey, why don't you let me guess what's on the governor's mind?" Zhuge Liang asked.

"Mr. Zhuge, why don't you take a guess?" Zhou Yu said.

Zhuge Liang smiled at Zhou Yu, shook the goose feather fan in his hand, and said to Zhou Yu: "The governor is worried about the lack of arrows."

Hearing this, Zhou Yu was surprised at first, and then delighted.Immediately asked Zhuge Liang: "Mr. Zhuge is really a god, do you have a way?"

"So, how about preparing [-] arrows for the governor within three days?" Zhuge Liang said to Zhou Yu confidently.

"Within three days, prepare [-] arrows, how can this be made?" Zhou Yu asked in amazement.

To make an arrow, you have to make the arrowhead, and to make the arrow, you have to make the feathers.If there are [-] arrows, according to Soochow's current production capacity, it will take half a month even if they work day and night without sleep.

Making [-] arrows within three days, not to mention that the craftsmen couldn't stand it, even the materials for making arrows may not be fully prepared.

Zhuge Liang smiled and said to Zhou Yu, "Hey, Governor, I don't want to make arrows, I want to borrow arrows."

Zhou Yu was even more confused when he heard that Zhuge Liang wanted to borrow arrows.Borrowing arrows, who can I borrow from?Cao Cao, Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu, Liu Bei.Now they are also fighting, and this arrow is also in short supply.Regardless of whether they are willing to borrow or not, even if they want to borrow, this will not quench their thirst.When their arrows arrive, this will not be the Year of the Monkey.

"Borrowing arrows, who can I ask to borrow arrows, and I can't deliver them in three days?" Lu Xun couldn't help asking.

"We don't want to borrow the ones that are far away, so let's borrow them from Qin Jun on the opposite side." Zhuge Liang said with a smile, waving a goose feather fan.

Lu Xun thought, Mr. Zhuge is probably stupid.Qin Jun borrowed arrows early, we are opponents now, can they lend us arrows?Lend us arrows and let us shoot them.Qin Jun, can't he be all fools?
Zhuge Liang's words made Zhou Yu and Lu Xun confused.
