Today, Jiangdong ranges from civil and military officials, down to the people of Limin.

A rare agreement was reached.

Cao Cao's northern expedition, recapture Sun Zhao, Yang Jiangdong prestige.

Civil servants and military generals share the same hatred.

The morale of the generals was high.

Although Zhou Yu vaguely felt that Sun Zhao was taken away was a little strange, but he couldn't bear to destroy Jiangdong's current good situation.

You can only hide your doubts in your heart.

Everything, wait until Cao Cao is defeated.

He took out the amulet he had obtained again from Sun Quan, held it high in his hand, and Zhou Yu walked past the Jiangdong generals.

When he came to the main seat, everyone's momentum also climbed to the peak.

"Great Governor!"

The crowd bowed their hands in salute.

Zhou Yu nodded: "How are the battalions preparing?"

"Report to the Governor, the soldiers of each battalion, the warships are ready and can cross the river north at any time." Cheng Pu replied.

"it is good!"

Zhou Yu smiled and nodded: "Gongfu, I'll have to work with you next."

"Don't worry, the commander-in-chief has already received a letter from Cao Thief, asking me to lead the troops to cast in the afternoon three days later, with the Qinglong flag as proof." Huang Gai cupped his hands and said, "I have already prepared sixty battleships, and the bow deck is down. Full of kerosene, each ship is equipped with three firearms, enough to burn Cao Cao's warships to the ground!"

"it is good!"

Zhou Yu nodded again, "This battle is about my life and death in Jiangdong, and it is more about your life and death. Everyone, hurry up and prepare for the battle. Three days later, we will face Cao Cao!"

"promise!"

All will respectfully retire.

……

Three days later.

Gangneung Ferry.

Thousands of warships sailed out from the coast. Because of the relationship between the iron chains and the boats, they were connected together, and the shape was like land.

The navy is in the front, and the infantry is behind.

For this war, Cao Cao sent a total of [-] troops.

Among them, [-] sailors and [-] infantrymen.

The rest of the troops and horses were handed over to Xiahou Dun, who were stationed in Jiangling, Yicheng and other places, to guard against Jiangdong and Liu Bei's troops to attack.

Cao Cao boarded the warship with a group of civil servants and generals.

Majestic hair.

In front of the soldiers on the ship, he read the poem that was passed down to later generations.

Short song line.

Su Chen, who was hiding in the corner of the warship, was a little amused when he saw Cao Cao's coquettish operation.

But I have to say, this poem is still very well written.

At least he can't write it.

After reading a poem, the morale of the soldiers also rose sharply.

Cao Cao smiled in satisfaction, directly drew out the sword in his hand, and raised it high.

"The whole army is allocated, and the target is Jiangdong."

With Cao Cao's war order issued.More than a thousand warships lifted anchor at the same time, and with a burst of water breaking, they sailed towards Jiangdong.

Loud.

Fortunately, after the chain of iron chains, the stability between the warships is extremely high.

The northern soldiers temporarily overcame the seasickness problem and retained most of their combat effectiveness.

Seeing this, Cao Cao also felt relieved.

Lead the generals back to the cabin.

noon.

After Cao Cao and the generals had lunch on the boat, they looked at Cao Ren and asked, "How are the soldiers in the army?"

"My lord, there are occasional people in the army who suffer from seasickness and vomiting, but there are not many, about [-] out of [-], and there are about a thousand people in severe cases. The doctor has been sent for diagnosis and treatment." Cao Ren replied.

Cao Cao frowned.

He did not expect that after improving the stability of the warship, there would still be so many soldiers seasick.

Although it is much better than before Tie Suo Lianzhou, it still did not meet Cao Cao's expectations.

"Allow seasick soldiers to rest, and they must maintain sufficient combat power before the battle." Cao Cao said.

"No." Cao Ren nodded and went to make arrangements immediately.

At this time.

A messenger came in.

"Report, report to the lord, Jiangdong Huang Gai came to vote, and it is less than ten miles away."

"Oh?"

Cao Cao's heart was overjoyed, and it was delivered to the door so quickly?

He rubbed his slightly sour brows and hurriedly led the generals to the deck.

Looking far into the distance, I can't see Huang Gai's ship for the time being.

However, Cao Cao was not in a hurry. At the current speed, Huang Gai's warship would arrive in less than half a column of incense. .

Chapter 101

Cheng Yu stood beside Cao Cao, and as Cao Cao looked at the river, he couldn't help but say, "My lord, Huang Gai came to vote rashly, be careful of cheating."

Who is Huang Gai?

That was Sun Jian's old minister.

When he followed Sun Jian to fight, he was not only good in force, but also had a good ability to command troops. He was one of the generals around Sun Jian.

Later, Sun Jian was in the middle of Jingzhou and was shot and killed by Cai Mao.

Huang Gai also helped Sun Ce stabilize the situation and lay down the six counties of Jiangdong.

After Sun Ce's death, he assisted Sun Quan and served under Zhou Yu for many years. He was the elder of the Three Dynasties in Jiangdong.

It can be said that he is loyal to Jiang Dong.

How could such a person surrender?

Not only did Cheng Yu think so, but the other advisors, Jia Xu, Chen Qun and others also did the same.

"My lord, although Jiangdong has been in chaos these days, Zhou Yu has been dismissed from the post of governor, and Huang Gai has scolded Sun Quan and Zhou Yu in public, but the minister feels that there is something strange about it."

"As far as I know, Huang Gai acts prudently and will not be so reckless. What's more, Huang Gai's relatives and family members are all in Jiangdong, and they have served three generations of Jiangdong's lords. How can they be traitors?"

"So the minister guessed that Huang Gai may have swindled to surrender."

"But I'm not sure. After all, Xu You was also loyal to Yuan Shao, but he also defected to the lord before the war, so whether Huang Gai is sincere is still to be verified."

Chen Qun said.

"Chang Wen is right, and I have the same opinion." Seeing Cao Cao's gaze, Jia Xu quickly agreed.

Pooh!

You, Jia Wenhe, know that Mingzhe protects himself.

Cheng Yu and the others gave Jia Xu a blank look.

After all, since Jia Xu joined Cao Ying, he hadn't really offered a few strategies.

"Hahaha...you are right."

"Actually, it doesn't matter whether Huang Gai surrendered or not. The important thing is that I accepted Huang Gai so that I could follow Jiang Dong's wishes and make Jiang Dong mistakenly believe that our army was in the game."

"By doing this, I will be able to take the plan and lead the Jiangdong navy to come out for a decisive battle!"

Cao Cao said with a smile.

Ok?

When everyone heard this, they were stunned.

Cheng Yu hurriedly asked, "My lord already knew that Huang Gai would come to join forces?"

"good."

Cao Cao nodded and said, "Three days ago, I received a letter from Huang Gai, saying that his main troops and horses would come to vote, and I agreed."

The crowd suddenly turned pale.

"Why did the Prime Minister agree so readily?"

At the same time, there are some doubts in my heart.

This was the first time Cao Cao made up his mind without consulting them.

After all, in the past, no matter how big or small matters, Cao Cao would discuss with them first.

"Because I have already seen through Sun Quan and Zhou Yu's plan." Cao Cao said while looking at the crowd.

"what?"
