In Zhou Yu's residence, there were bursts of piano sounds, sometimes euphemistic and sometimes high pitched.

A moment later, at the end of the song, one applauded.

"Wonderful, wonderful, Gong Jin's long river chant is full of Lingyun's ambition. It seems that there is a momentum of startling waves on the shore and the power of wind and clouds. It's a pity..."

Zhou Yu glanced at Pang Tong and asked with great interest, "what a pity?"

Pang Tong looked regretful: "it's a pity that in the aftersound, there is a faint meaning that ambition is difficult to pay. Gong Jin became famous when he was young. Why is there such a melancholy sound in the sound of the piano?"

Zhou Yu was a little surprised, and then he was happy: "Shiyuan is worthy of being a wizard in the world. Only Shiyuan can understand the profound meaning of this song after Yu played it for several years."

As he spoke, he got up and went to the porch outside the door.

"I have known Bo Fu and a young man. I have supported him so far. I have captured Yuan Shu with the old lord and entered the east of the river. Today, I should have been energetic and show my strengths."

He immediately followed the conversation: "however, time does not wait for us. At that time, Liu he was in the land of Hebei and the climate has become. We tried our best to get a foothold in Jiangdong, and all the land in the North has been attributed to him. Liu He is a great man of the whole life and has the legacy of Guangwu. It is really difficult to compete with him."

Pang Tong smiled noncommittally.

"The so-called doing everything we can to know our destiny. Now, with you and me to help the Lord, we may not be able to achieve great things. Under Liu He, although there are tens of thousands of naval troops, the benefit of warships is even greater than me. However, the ability of Naval Warfare is still better than him. Relying on the long river and natural moat, we can block the enemy in a defensive manner, wait for the opportunity to hit him hard, or have a glimmer of vitality."

When Zhou Yu heard the speech, her thoughts became clearer and her eyes became firm again.

"That's right. A big husband stands in the world and should move forward."

However, he suddenly turned back and looked at Pang Tong.

"As Shi Yuan said just now, do you think that our army should recuperate and make every effort to prepare for war by the river to prevent the collapse of the northern army?"

Pang Tong knew that this problem was both a challenge and a challenge. He gently shook the feather fan, went to Zhou Yu's Guqin and reached out to play a few tones.

"Guan Yu, Zhang Yong, Gao Shun, Zhu ye, Liu Bei, Xu Huang, Jiang Huan and others, although they have generals, they are far better than our Jiangdong generals, but..."

Zhou Yu asked, "but what?"

Pang Tong smiled proudly and walked to Zhou Yu. The feather fan pointed to the sky: "however, the flying of the swallow is no higher than the eaves. Even if it is the outstanding generation of the swallow, it is still the swallow after all. How can it be compared with the phoenix flying for nine days?"

Zhou Yu frowned slightly. Obviously, he was dissatisfied with the fact that he stepped on Jiangdong and everyone praised him.

"Sir, we should not underestimate the outstanding people in the world. Moreover, Xuzhou warships are extremely terrible. Even though our navy is more familiar with water, it is by no means easy to really fight against such a huge fleet."

If Jiang Huan and Xu Shu hadn't been poisoned in the battle on the river that day, it would be difficult to command the whole army. With tens of thousands of defeated troops on their side, I'm afraid they might not be the enemy of the other side.

Zhou Yu vowed that it was the largest, most powerful and most powerful warship he had ever seen, and the hull was very broad, but the height was very ordinary. Even when sailing on the sea, it could be safe and stable. With the equipment of stone catapults, heavy crossbows and other ordnance, it could definitely be called a water fortress.

Pang Tong made a series of plans against the enemy, poisoned the food first, and poured the antidote into the wine, which can not only make Jiang Huan and others suspicious, but also save Liu Xun and others from the pain of poison.

Then the hidden piles and iron cables in the water were raised, the warships such as Jiang Huan were divided, and then the shore Sergeant rockets were fired in unison. Even so, it was only able to repel the enemy without any capture.

Originally, Zhou Yu expected to leave a huge building ship, but the huge ship was too brave. Under the impact, it was almost effortless, so he broke away from the obstruction of several iron ropes and dared not pursue.

It is precisely because he has seen the power of such ships that Zhou Yu has countless worries. If Jiang Huan attacks again, he really doesn't know how to deal with it. After all, Jiang Huan fought with pirates in Qingzhou for many years. Although he is not as capable of water warfare as himself, he must not be a general generation. In addition, such a grand fleet is really very difficult.

Pang Tong glanced at Zhou Yu with disapproval: "Gong Jin is relieved that you have a good rest for a few days. When the northern army invades, Tong goes to meet the enemy. Gong Jin is by the river. See how I can kill those mobs and throw away their armor."

Zhou Yu was about to say something, but he saw someone report that the Lord asked them to discuss the matter. They dared not delay and got up immediately.

In sun CE's general's mansion, a huge map with a length of more than two feet and a width of more than two feet is hanging in the middle of the hall.

"Gong Jin, Shi Yuan, come..."

Sun CE, who was looking at the map, saw the two coming and hurried to say hello.

Zhou Yu looked at the place sun CE had just pointed at with the tip of his sword with great interest and said with a smile, "Shangyong Bofu, does it mean to be in Xichuan?"

Sun CE said happily, "ha ha, it's Gongjin who knows me."

Pang Tong's eyes turned: "a few months ago, Liu Zheng, Liu He's eldest son, led the army into Sichuan. Now, nominally, Yizhou is under the full authority of the eldest son of the emperor, led by the Governor Wu Yi. Liu he promoted Fazheng to be the commander-in-chief of the military division and assisted Liu Zheng. He is determined to go down the river and seize Jingzhou. It's better for us to start first than wait for them to make trouble."

Seeing that his ideas were supported, sun CE was also very happy.

"What Shiyuan said is very true. This plan was offered by Zhongda. Now Shiyuan agrees. It seems that it is indeed feasible."

"Sima Yi?" Zhou Yu was stunned, but even if he understood.

Yesterday, Sima Yi's materials and grain and grass collected from Lingnan have been transported to Xiangyang City. He must have brought his letter with the baggage team.

"Come on..."

Sun CE looked very excited and took them to the map.

"You see, if our army wants to make a northern expedition, there are only three ways. First, take the troops of Jingzhou out of Wancheng to attack Yuzhou, and then take Yuzhou as the foundation to confront Luoyang."

"Second, use Yangzhou troops and horses to advance both land and water, encircle before and after, attack Xuzhou, and then use Jingzhou and Xuzhou to attack Yuzhou and Yanzhou on both sides."

Speaking of this, Zhou Yu took over the conversation: "Liu He hoarded no less than 500000 troops in Sili area, Yanzhou and Xuzhou. If he wanted to attack Yuzhou, he would encounter three sieges. I tried my best to figure out the battle of Yuzhou. I thought it was seamless. I could break several troops and horses at one stroke, but he always missed a move. Therefore, the first strategy is not feasible."

"Gong Jin is right." Sun CE also immediately agreed.

"It was the best policy to capture Xuzhou. However, now that it has been proved that Xuzhou also has such a powerful navy, and our military ships are good at fighting on the river. If we want to go around the coast of the East China Sea, grab beaches and land and encircle Xuzhou, we are by no means the enemy of Jiang Huan's fleet."

"Well, it seems that this plan is not feasible. In this way, there is only the third plan - Taking Yizhou first and then attacking Liangzhou in the north."

Zhou Yu and sun CE have a close connection between their hearts. Sun CE said half, and Zhou Yu thought of the latter half.

"Hahaha, Gong Jin is really resourceful, that's right." Sun CE's face was full of joy.

Pang Tong raised his eyebrows and said, "if you can successfully capture Yizhou, you will send troops to the Northern Expedition and invade Liangzhou. Then Jing and Yang troops will also invade Henan and Xu. They think that they can provide support. There are three armies, both virtual and real. In addition, the enemy can't take care of each other. It's the best policy to contact some Qiang tribes and march together."

"That's right. Not long after Liu He took Yizhou, his people were uncertain and his army was unstable. It was a good time to attack Yizhou. If he wanted to take Yizhou, he decided to take Hanzhong first. As long as Hanzhong was occupied by our army, he could cut off his way back and demoralize him. Our army's backup and food and grass could go up from Jingzhou along the Han River, and he could win the victory."

Sun CE looked eager to try. It seemed that he couldn't help it and wanted to send troops immediately.

Zhou Yu pondered a little and clapped his hand on the big column next to him: "instead of waiting to die, if you don't take the initiative to attack, not to mention the new defeat of our army, the enemy will never expect. At the moment, our army still dares to attack actively. The so-called arrogant army will lose, you can attack unprepared. Lord, Yu is willing to unify 50000 troops and win Hanzhong directly."

"OK! I have Bo Fu to help. Why should I be afraid of just a Liu Zheng child?"

Sun CE and Zhou Yu clapped their hands and smiled at each other.

"Lord, Tong has a plan to help Gong Jin."

"Oh, Shiyuan, come on."

Pang Tong pointed to a city on the map: "To attack Hanzhong from Jingzhou, you must go through the Shangyong. Now the Shangyong is nominally under the control of Liu He. When Liu He's army came to Chengdu, he would rather serve the old master Liu Zhang than surrender. Liu he remembered his loyalty and called him the Shangyong prefect. However, he is incompetent. Shangyong is a powerful Shen brother. He is dissatisfied with Liu He's equal field system and has long been opposed."

"The Lord can order people to bring generous gifts, secretly visit the Shen brothers and teach them to wait for an opportunity to kill Liu Ruo. In this way, our army can pass the Shangyong without being aware of the ghost. At that time, if the divine army falls from heaven and the guard general in Hanzhong is unprepared, our army will win."

"Good plan, just do it."
