After receiving the news of the report from the outpost in front, the generals of the Wu army began to become anxious, and at that moment Ling Tong couldn't help but ask Zhou Yu and said: "Governor Qiyu, judging from the outpost sent by our army, Zhao Yu led hundreds of thousands of troops, and after arriving in the area of Wulin, he stopped moving.Nearly seven days have passed, I really don't know what the hell Zhao Yu is fighting, is it possible that we have to stay still" Hearing Ling Tong's words, looking at the expectant eyes of all the soldiers present, Zhou Yu slowly said: "The enemy does not move, I do not move, when we do not find out the truth about the enemy army, our army really cannot act rashly."
Otherwise, once the layout of the army is messed up, the Zhao army sees through it, and counterattacks in one fell swoop, then our army will really die with this. ”Zhou Yu's tone was very ordinary, but from Zhou Yu's words, everyone could hear a trace of helplessness.After all, this time, the Zhao army acted abnormally in one fell swoop, and acted according to the troops, so that the own army originally took the initiative, and at this time it had to stop and wait for the footsteps of the Zhao army.Although the soldiers and horses on both sides are now bounded by rivers and rivers, and they are not moving for the time being, you must know that the three armies of Wei, Shu and Wu are not capable of delaying this at all.For a long time, the soldiers of Wei and Shu fled to Wu, which made Wu's materials extremely scarce, and the Zhao army's pursuit and conquest all the time directly dragged Wu's economy down.At this moment, in order to fight against the Zhao army, Zhou Yu led the three armies to fight in the front, while Sun Quan and other important ministers had to start recruiting new soldiers and levying grain and grass in the territory of Wu.Only in this way can we ensure the transportation to the front line, as well as the normal operation of grain and grass.Otherwise, if the transportation and supply are interrupted, the officers and men of the three armies will collapse without a fight.Suddenly, Zhou Tai, the general of the Wu army, bowed to Zhou Yu in public and said: "Back to the governor, the last general led his men and horses to try to attack the camp of the Zhao army, but found that those Zhao troops were training the navy and consolidating some naval warships.So the last general was very curious, so he stopped to watch, but found a very strange thing. ”The reason why Zhou Tai didn't dare to explain it at first was because Zhou Tai sent troops without authorization, which was a violation of military discipline.Zhou Tai has always been a general of Wu and a favorite general under Sun Quan, and he has always been known for strict military discipline, law-abiding, loyal to duty, and brave in battle.But why did Zhou Tai not report to Zhou Yu in private this time, so he led his private soldiers to the Zhao army camp to launch an invasion.Of course, this is also about to be understood, seeing that the armies of both the enemy and us are about to start a naval battle.However, the Zhao army suddenly stopped moving, which made the whole Wu State have been waiting with a high degree of nervousness, so Zhou Tai wanted to secretly attack the Zhao army.Zhou Tai thought that if he suddenly sent troops to attack successfully, it would be able to severely damage the morale of the Zhao army, and it could also provoke the Zhao army, so that the Zhao army would immediately send troops to come.In that case, Wu would be able to take the opportunity to exert the combat power of his naval army and start a decisive battle with the Zhao army on this river.Regarding the strength of the Zhao army, Zhou Tai had to admit that it was true, especially the cavalry and infantry of the Zhao army, which could be called the best in the world.After those several battles, Zhou Tai had clearly realized this, but when he heard that Zhou Yu, the governor of the capital, wanted to start a decisive battle with the Zhao army on the river, Zhou Tai regained his confidence.With the strength of Wu's naval army, coupled with many generals, according to the strategy of the governor, he will definitely be able to defeat the Zhao army.In addition, the Metropolitan Governor had already sent a letter to Lord Lu Su of Jiangxia County.When the time comes, Lu Su will lead a few generals, plus those tens of thousands of soldiers and horses to gather, they will definitely be able to inflict heavy losses on the Zhao army together.After hearing Zhou Tai's words, Zhou Yu couldn't help but ask: "What strange things did General Zhou Tai find in the Zhao military camp" After getting Zhou Yu's words, Zhou Tai hurriedly bowed his hand and said: "Before, we heard that in addition to cavalry and infantry, the Zhao army secretly built a naval army led by Gan Ning, if this is the case."
Compared with the strength of the cavalry and infantry of the Zhao army, it is not difficult to guess that the naval army of the Zhao army should also be very powerful, after all, the commander of the naval army of the Zhao army is Gan Ning, one of the five tiger generals of the Zhao army.But this time, Zhou Tai went without permission to attack the Zhao army, but found that the warships that the Zhao army stopped at the water's edge were actually extremely ordinary warships. ”"These warships can be said to be incomparable to even the warships of our Wu Kingdom, although there are quite a few of them, but they are really too unelite.There are not a few big ships of the navy at all, most of them are small ships, if the Zhao army wants to give this kind of warship to fight our army this time.Zhou Tai can say that he will not make a move at all, as long as Zhou Tai is always elite, Zhou Tai can rely on the power of one person.led the soldiers and horses to defeat all these Zhao army and sailors, and let them come to the waters of our Wu Kingdom, and they were all buried in the belly of the fish. ”"Zhou Tai, don't brag too much when you talk about this guy, be careful to blow too much, it will be difficult to end up then."
And as soon as Zhou Tai's voice fell, a black-faced man on the side immediately shouted at Zhou Tai.Zhou Tai followed the prestige, and saw that this person turned out to be Zhang Fei, the general of Shu State, if it was changed to usual.As for Zhang Fei's words, other generals of Wu State will definitely stand up and accuse Zhang Fei for Zhou Tai.But this time is different, as far as everyone knows about Zhao Jun, Zhao Jun's soldiers are strong and strong, and the naval army will definitely not be as unbearable as Zhou Tai said.But everyone thinks so, but Zhou Yu doesn't, after all, Zhou Yu is very clear about Zhou Tai's character.Knowing that Zhou Tai would never make a joke about this important military situation, after all, this is a life-and-death battle between the two sides.Immediately, I only heard Zhou Yu ask Zhou Tai: "Zhou Yu believes that what General Zhou Tai said is true, but based on what General Zhou Tai said, Zhou Yu can't clearly understand the movements of the Zhao army.Therefore, this time Zhou Yu must personally go to investigate Zhao Jun's camp in order to come up with corresponding strategies according to his situation. ”As soon as Zhou Yu's voice fell, Zhuge Liang, the prime minister of Shu State, also hurriedly stood up and said to him: "Zhuge Liang is willing to go with Zhou Dudu." ”I only heard Zhou Yu nod and said, "Well, it's okay, one more person will have more strength."
If Prime Minister Zhuge accompanied Zhou Yu to investigate, if Zhou Yu was not clear, Prime Minister Zhuge would be able to make a reminder. ”As Zhou Yu and Zhuge Liang stepped forward, Sima Yi on the side naturally would not be idle, after a petition to Zhou Yu.The three major think tanks, with several personal tiger generals and a few warships, began to set off towards the Zhao army camp on the other side of the river.As the Zhao army camp appeared in front of everyone, Zhou Yu and the others also saw it clearly, and saw that on the shore not far away, a column of Zhao army's naval warships stayed here.I have to say that Zhou Tai's report is not false at all, although there are many warships docked in the Zhao army naval camp in front of him.But at a glance, there were not many large ships at all, all of them were small and vulnerable ships.There are even small boats, if they are placed in Wu State, they are simply boats used for fishing.If the Zhao army used these ships to participate in the conquest this time, then Wu Guoke would really easily defeat them.Seeing this scene, Ling Tong, who was following Zhou Yu's side, couldn't help but be surprised and said: "What the hell is going on, is it possible that the Zhao army really doesn't have a powerful naval army, so it only has this bit of naval strength, and it will start a decisive battle with us" After hearing Ling Tong's words, Zhou Yu said lightly: "This matter is extraordinary, although the Zhao army has placed many seemingly useless warships here, but it seems that there is no high-rise building ship like the Zhao army Yinglong naval army that we saw at the beginning."
In addition, the Ying Long Water Army, the commander of the Zhao Army's Water Army, Gan Ning's Water Army, does not seem to appear here. ”"Woo" Just as everyone was discussing, they suddenly heard an urgent horn sound in the Zhao military camp.Everyone couldn't help but be stunned, and then saw that on the opposite shore, many Zhao troops appeared, pointing in the direction of their own army.Soon, some people with the identity of generals appeared, and with a wave of their big hands, they began to command the kind of Zhao army to start boarding the ship, obviously these Zhao troops, who found everyone's figure and planned to send troops to pursue it.Seeing those Zhao Jun who boarded the ship, Zhou Tai hurriedly bowed to Zhou Yu and said, "Dudu, at this moment, the soldiers and horses of the Zhao army have discovered us, let's retreat first."
Although these Zhao Army's sailors seem to be so vulnerable, there are quite a few of them after all.If they are in pursuit, I am afraid it will be difficult for us to break through easily. ”Immediately, I saw Zhou Yu arch his hand, and said to everyone: "Well, okay, this time we have already checked the Zhao army's sailors, if there is friction with these Zhao troops today, it will be meaningless, immediately turn the bow of the ship and return to the army camp." ”With Zhou Yu's order, Zhou Tai waved his hand to a soldier dancing the flag behind him, only to see the two red and yellow flags in the soldier's hand dancing the flag.Suddenly, several warships that came began to turn their bows, and under the gaze of many Zhao soldiers, they rode away in the wind, and did not pay attention to the Zhao army behind them at all.When Zhou Yu and the others left by boat, the soldiers of the Zhao army here ran to the camp of the Zhao army and reported to Zhao Yu: "Your Majesty, just now our army found that the enemy's warship appeared by the river, and it seems that they came to investigate the secrets of our army.The soldiers just wanted to pursue by boat, but the enemy had already turned the bow of the ship and left quickly, because the distance between the two sides was quite large, and our army wanted to pursue it, I am afraid that it would be a step slower, so we could only watch the enemy troops slip away from under the noses of the outside. ”After hearing the sergeant's report, Zhao Yu couldn't help but be stunned, and then looked at Guo Jia on the side and said: "Two military advisors, let's see what the purpose of the enemy army is this time":
