With the beginning of the task assigned by Liu Wei, the whole north fell into a busy situation, whether it was soldiers or ordinary people, they were all performing their duties and trying to do something.
More than a month later, the news of Liu Bian's imminent attack reached Liu Bei, and Cao Cao's ears were heard, and after learning the news, the two immediately gathered their respective subordinates, and then discussed how to resist Liu Bian's army, and at the same time, the two also sent people to reach a consensus at this time.
The rainy season in the south always comes early and goes late, the rainy season lasts for almost five months, and now the rainy season has passed, but the effects of the rainy season are still there, the moist earth, the ferocious rivers.
A large fleet of ships appeared in the lower reaches of the Yangtze River, and it looked like it was crossing the Yangtze River.
Immediately after, not long after, another fleet appeared on the Yangtze River, but it seemed to be blocking that fleet.
It is clear that the two fleets belong to different forces, and they are in a hostile relationship.
In this way, it was not long before the two fleets got closer and closer, and the battle broke out, and as time passed, the wide Yangtze River was full of ships, some large and some small, and the battle between the two fleets was very fierce.
As the battle continued, more and more ships joined the battle, and more and more ships withdrew from the battle.
This battle on the water surface of the Yangtze River lasted a whole day, and the battlefield lasted for dozens of miles.
The water of the Yangtze River was red for a while, and this was naturally the blood of the dead soldiers on both sides of the battle.
In this battle, the Cao Army's sailors were defeated, and countless sailor soldiers were killed, including Cai Mao, the commander of the Cao Army's sailors.
And the warring sides are self-evident, naturally Qi Jiguang, Han Shizhong and their army of sailors.
This was the first battle of Liu Wei's southern expedition, and it was also a crucial battle, this battle was finally won by Liu Wei, and the Jiangdong naval division that blocked the front of Liu Wei's army crossing the river was gone.
After the end of this battle, the sailors who controlled the waters of the Yangtze River on the first line of Jiangdong changed from Jiangdong sailors to imperial court sailors.
"Your Majesty, the sailor was defeated, Cai Mao fell into the river with an arrow, and I don't know if I live or die."
When this news reached Cao Cao's ears, Cao Cao's face changed significantly in an instant.
"How is the sailor now?"
"Back to Your Majesty, the sailor is now seriously injured, most of the sailor soldiers have been killed in battle, many warships have been destroyed, and Cai Mao has died in battle, and now the sailor is already panicking."
Cheng Yu replied.
"In that case, let the sailors go ashore, there is no need for the sailors to exist now, let them be infantry and cavalry."
Cao Cao said solemnly, in the end, Cao Cao has never paid much attention to the water master, there is no way after all, he himself is a northerner, and he doesn't know anything about the water master, if it weren't for Cai Mao, and the original foundation, maybe the water master in Jiangdong would be even worse than now.
"The minister will arrange it" Cheng Yu immediately replied that Cheng Yu is also a northerner, although Cheng Yu and others have always known the importance of the water master to themselves, but they don't understand the water master.
Now that the sailor has been defeated and the commander of the sailor has died, the current sailor can be said to exist in name only, so Cheng Yu did not object to Cao Cao's order at all, after all, make the best use of it "Summoned Guo Ziyi, Jia Fu ordered them to lead 100,000 troops to Danyang to defend the town."
Cao Cao commanded again.
"Your Majesty is worried that Liu Wei's army crossed the river from the Lujiang River into Danyang?"
asked Cheng Yu curiously.
"That's right, with Liu Wei's character, it is absolutely impossible to attack only one place, Danyang has to defend against it," Cao Cao explained, "The minister understands" "In addition, inform Cao Ren, Cao Bin, Ran Min, and Xu Chu and let them lead their troops to intercept the enemy's crossing of the river."
Cao Cao commanded again.
"Obey the Order" Jingzhou, "Your Majesty, Yue Fei personally led a large army into the boundary of my Jingzhou territory, and now three cities on the north bank have been taken."
"I haven't done it yet, he Yue Fei actually made the first move, passed on my will, and ordered the army to cross the river immediately, I want to see how capable he Yue Fei is."
Liu Bei shouted angrily.
"Your Majesty, please stop your anger" Zhuge Liang hurriedly persuaded.
"Kong Ming, you don't have other ideas?"
Liu Bei questioned Zhuge Liang, Jiangxia fell two years ago, Huang Zhong died in battle, Wei Yan's rebellion had a great impact on Liu Bei, as Zhuge Liang who guarded Jingzhou, it was difficult to escape the blame, plus Zhuge Liang repeatedly persuaded Liu Bei to move the capital, which directly annoyed Liu Bei, and now, Liu Bei's attitude towards Zhuge Liang is definitely not comparable to Liu Bei's attitude towards Pang Tong.
"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that it is not appropriate for the army to cross the river and fight with Yue Fei."
Zhuge Liang said bluntly, at this point, Zhuge Liang has no time to take care of his relationship with Liu Bei, and he can say whatever he wants.
"Why" Liu Bei's face sank.
"The Yangtze River is the barrier of Jingzhou, if you cross the Yangtze River to fight a decisive battle with Yue Fei, it is not equivalent to giving up your own advantages, if our army loses in the battle with Yue Fei, if the battle is lost, the Yangtze River will even become a constraint for our army to retreat, if our army loses troops in the battle in Jiangbei, I am afraid that it will prompt the enemy army to drive straight in.
Therefore, the minister suggested that our army should use the Yangtze River as a barrier and take advantage of the advantages of the naval division to deal with the enemy's troops and horses.
Zhuge Liang explained.
"Kong Ming means to say, will my Houhan lose this battle" Liu Bei's eyes tightened, staring at Zhuge Liang and asking.
"That's what the minister meant, it's just a conjecture of the minister, a conjecture for the overall situation of Jingzhou."
Zhuge Liang hurriedly explained.
"Your Majesty, the minister has something to say" At this moment, Pang Tong stood up.
"Shiyuan, but it doesn't hurt to speak" Compared with the attitude towards Zhuge Liang, the attitude towards Pang Tong is much better.

"The minister thinks that there is something wrong with Kong Ming's words."
Pang Tong replied.
"Please Teach Shiyuan" Zhuge Liang also looked at Pang Tong.
"Liu Wei is menacing, there are rumors that Liu Wei intends to destroy the forces of the three kingdoms in one fell swoop, and the strength of Liu Wei's men is not something that can be resisted by the power of a country, and now Liu Wei's main army is attacking Cao Cao, if we choose to defend passively, it will not give Yue Fei in the north the opportunity to divide his troops, and give Cao Cao a greater threat.
You must know that once Cao Cao is destroyed, my Hou Han will never be much better, and the minister thinks that our army should take the initiative to kill Yue Fei's army, give Yue Fei enough pressure, and even force Yue Fei to ask Liu Wei for help, which not only reduces Cao Cao's burden, but also strengthens the morale of our army. ” Pang Tong explained with a smile.
"What else does Kong Ming have to say?"
After Liu Bei listened to Pang Tong's words, he thought so deeply and set his eyes on Zhuge Liang again.
"What Shi Yuan said is indeed reasonable, attacking Yue Fei's army is an extremely beneficial thing for Cao Cao, but the battlefield is only a few hundred miles away from the capital, which is absolutely impossible."
Zhuge Liang agreed with Pang Tong's words in his heart, because he also wanted to, but he was still dissatisfied with the problem of the battlefield.
"Speaking of which, do you think it's wrong for me to veto your proposal to move the capital in the first place, you are unwilling?"
Liu Bei sneered, for Zhuge Liang's opposition, Liu Bei naturally attributed it to Zhuge Liang's vindictiveness.
"The minister doesn't dare" Zhuge Liang hurriedly explained that deep down Zhuge Liang was indeed dissatisfied with Liu Bei's veto of his proposal to move the capital, such as this war, if the capital was not in Jiangling, but a little closer to the south, Zhuge Liang would never oppose Liu Bei and Pang Tong's plan.
"I know what you mean, but it's already done, and some things can't be changed."
Liu Bei said in a deep voice, in fact, he is also a little remorseful about vetoing the matter of moving the capital now, if the capital is moved south in advance, he will not be so passive now.
"The minister understands" Zhuge Liang was deflated all of a sudden, yes, the wood has been completed, the enemy army has already arrived in the city, and it will only be self-defeating to change now.
"Just do what I said, mobilize all the troops to cross the river and go north to fight with Nayue Fei, if this battle is won, it can ensure that my Houhan will be worry-free for more than ten years, if it is defeated, then my Houhan will be doomed."
