The most poisonous person in the Three Kingdoms, Boss Cao advised me to calm down!

Chapter 236 Why take the risk?

As soon as Yu Jin issued this order.

Next to them were civil servants Liu Ba and Kuai Yue.

They looked at each other but said nothing more.

Although this approach may take a lot of time.

But there is really no better way at the moment.

To be honest, they did not agree with advancing along the river.

If we concentrate on the advantages of land warfare.

Starting from Xiangyang, attack along both sides of the Han River.

There is no need to be so passive at this moment.

But now that we have started fighting with Zhou Yu, we can no longer retreat.

If we withdraw to Jiangling at this time, it would be tantamount to showing weakness to the enemy.

The people in Jingzhou will then become unstable, and things will become more difficult in the future.

At this time, Liu Ba looked back at the terrain on his side.

I found a bare river beach nearby.

Further north are endless mountains and dense forests.

It was late autumn and all the leaves had fallen, making the scene look particularly desolate.

This forest blocked the road to the north.

Somehow, facing this terrain.

Liu Ba suddenly had a bad feeling.

He immediately asked Kuai Yue: "Mr. Kuai, where is this place?"

Upon hearing this, Kuai Yue also looked around.

Then he muttered:
"This place is called Wulin, and it belongs to Shaxian County, Jiangxia."

"Oh?" Xun You paused and asked, "What about the other side?"

Kuai Yue looked at the steep cliffs on the south bank.

He answered casually with two words: "Chibi."

Just when the main force of the Jingzhou navy suffered a defeat in the first battle.

On the other side, outside Xiakou Port, Gan Ning was training the navy on the river.

Suddenly, he heard news from his soldiers.

It was said that a superior from the imperial court wanted to talk to him.

Gan Ning was surprised to hear this, as he didn't have many acquaintances in Xudu.

Why would someone go all the way to Xiakou to find him?
However, no matter how doubtful we are, we should never neglect the people coming from above.

Thinking of this, Gan Ning was just about to go for the meeting.

But unexpectedly, he found a small boat behind the water fort.

Crossed over leisurely!

The young civil servant standing at the bow was none other than him.

It was his great benefactor Sima De!
This made Gan Ning feel a little surprised!

Why would Military Advisor Sima come all the way from Xudu to Jiangxia at this juncture?
Moreover, they were in the same army before, and Sima De often came to see him.

But usually they come directly to their own accounts!

And most of the time they come over to drink and chat in the evening, after they have finished their work!
But I rarely come directly to the river to find him!

Besides, the navy is being trained right now, and the river is already in a mess!

Compared to Sima De, who is wearing a feather fan, a blue scarf and a white robe that is whiter than snow.

That's totally out of place!

What's more, they are now facing off against the Jiangdong army.

Although Zhou Yu might not be able to reach Xiakou for a while.

But if the enemy is preparing a surprise attack.

With the capability of Jiangdong navy, it can be said that they will arrive in an instant!

So the water surface looks calm.

But in reality, the situation is turbulent and full of dangers!
Sima De, as a military strategist, is a civil servant after all!
Even if he was sent by the Prime Minister to supervise the war in Jingzhou.

Then I can just participate in government affairs on the shore. I basically never come to the river!

Unexpectedly, at this moment, I actually found my own water fort on the river.

Obviously something is unusual!
Even if he is not here on orders, it must be something important or urgent!

But this kid seemed so calm and composed from a distance!

Not only does it not give that feeling at all!
Instead, he looks like a student traveling around!

It's really a bit hard to understand!
But there's nothing strange about this.

Gan Ning knew it very well in his mind!
This military advisor is now a high-ranking official in the Han Dynasty. He is also Cao Cao's most trusted counselor!

He has always been full of schemes and has always been full of evil intentions!
Oh no, it should be a brilliant plan!
Even Prime Minister Cao and a group of top advisers.

He still has great respect for Military Advisor Sima!
How could a warrior like me make rash guesses?
Fortunately, Gan Ning couldn't figure it out no matter how hard he tried.

At least I understand one thing!

This handsome young man is my destined benefactor!
So no matter what, his coming to Jiangxia will only benefit him!

Now that he knew this, Gan Ning felt that it was enough!

Other than that, there is no problem even if I know nothing about him.

Just treat them well and listen to their instructions.

Thinking of this, Gan Ning did not dare to delay for even a moment!

Made hasty arrangements.

He whispered a few words to the deputy general next to him!
Only then did he walk down from the high observation tower!

Quicken your pace and head towards the boat!

Before the boat came to a stop, they started to greet each other loudly:

"Mr. Sima, why is it you?"

"I didn't expect you to come to Jiangxia!"

"It's been a tiring journey!"

As he said this, he walked forward and helped Sima De get off the boat!
Sima De walked forward and said with a smile:
"Xingba, you are joking. You and I are both officials of the imperial court."

"It's not hard to share the Prime Minister's worries."

"There's nothing to do in Xudu anyway!"

"I just arrived in Jiangxia and it's pretty boring staying on the shore!"

"I came here specially to visit my brother now."

"By the way, let's take a look at the river view. Is there any other problem?"

But having said that, Sima De didn't come here for sightseeing.

If it weren’t for my cheap father-in-law who has always been worried about the war in Jingzhou.

He would not volunteer to come to Jiangxia to help.

However, as soon as he arrived in Jiangxia, he heard on the way that the Jingzhou navy had suffered a defeat in its first battle.

This also made Sima De feel a little emotional.

This Zhou Yu is indeed worthy of being the pillar of Jiangdong.

It's really not something that ordinary people can deal with.

Even though he had already suggested to Boss Cao in advance to arrange for Yu Jin, Liu Ba and others to be stationed in Jingzhou.

But in the end, they were still defeated by the Jiangdong navy led by Zhou Gongjin!
If I don't come and listen, the outcome will be even more difficult to predict.

At this time, Gan Ning also laughed after hearing this.

He took him directly to his command desk!

He waved his hand to dismiss the two lieutenants on duty and made an inviting gesture!

He continued with a smile:
"Sir, you are so elegant and refined that you can move freely in front of the Prime Minister!"

"It is only natural and reasonable for you to come and care about the war now."

"But the war is imminent, why would you risk your life, sir?"

Sima De waved his hand and followed him up to the wide platform!
I see the river breeze is mighty, pleasing to the eyes and soothing to the mind!

What a vast view!

I suddenly felt very refreshed, and even my mind felt much more open.

I casually sighed:
"Xingba, this is a bit biased!"

"You and I are just insignificant people who came from the Yangtze River!"

"Now we are serving under the Prime Minister again!"

"Of course I will follow your instructions. We will fight wherever you point us to!"

"Now even General Zhang Liao is ready to fight at any time."

"How can I say that I am putting myself in danger?"

When Gan Ning heard this, his face darkened and he said seriously:

"That being said, there is a difference after all!"

“For small people like me, this may be true!”

"Sir, you are outstanding and both you and Governor Zhang are the pillars of the country!"

"Naturally, he is a person who conquers the world for the Prime Minister and has a broad mind!"

"How can we small fish and shrimp be compared with them?"
