Liu Xian rubbed his forehead and couldn't help but curse, "If you can't be a hero, you should be a hero! Always hiding behind the common people, what's this thing?"

Everyone felt the same and started to scream and scold.

Liu Xian looked at Zhao Yanran and asked, "Is there anything else?"

Everyone stopped shouting and cursing, looking at Zhao Yanran, and saw Zhao Yanran say, "Short after I led my army, the heads of the surrounding counties and local elders came to surrender. Now, the entire Lujiang County, except for one Lujiang City, has surrendered to his husband."

Liu Xian smiled and nodded, saying, "In this way, our army can drink horses and Yangtze River!"

After thinking for a while, he said to everyone: "It seems that it cannot be solved by Liu Bei in a hurry, so I led 50,000 troops to stay. Yanran, you will lead the main army to continue to move south, and take advantage of the opportunity when the Eastern Wu had not yet reacted, and fight me across the Yangtze River!"

Zhao Yanran clasped her fists and said, "My husband is wise, and I have this idea."

Liu Xian smiled and praised: "I am worthy of being my wife. I really have a close relationship with me!"

When Zhao Yanran saw that Liu Xian was talking like this in front of everyone, she couldn't help but blush and looked extremely shy and charming.

Everyone present was used to Zhao Yanran's heroic and decisive appearance. At this time, she suddenly showed a woman's tenderness, and everyone showed a very stunning expression.

After the meeting, Liu Xian and Zhao Yanran were strolling around the big tent.

Zhao Yanran glanced at Liu Xian and asked curiously: "My husband must have had some clever plan to deal with Liu Bei, right?"

Liu Xian held Zhao Yanran's slender hand and smiled, "I am really my wife, just like a worm in my belly, I can't hide anything from you!"

Zhao Yanran blushed and said angrily: "Are you praising me or teasing me? What do you mean by worms in your belly? Are you so unbearable?"

Liu Xian laughed and said, "Don't get me wrong. I like you so I say that!"

Zhao Yanran was happy, but sighed on her face and said helplessly: "Since your husband likes it, I will be the worm in his belly!"

Liu Xian couldn't help but feel his heart swayed, and the palms holding Zhao Yanran's slender hand tighter.

Thinking of Zhao Yanran's upcoming army to cross the river, he thought: "Liu Bei's defeat was as bad as a mountain, which must have been beyond the expectations of the Eastern Wu. If we can seize this opportunity to cross the Yangtze River in one fell swoop, the entire strategic situation will be very beneficial to us."

When Zhao Yanran heard Liu Xian talk about military affairs, the charming charm on her face was immediately replaced by a serious expression, and thought: "What my husband said is very true! For us, fighter jets have appeared, and now is an excellent opportunity to tear open the three defense lines in one fell swoop!"

He glanced at Liu Xian and smiled and said, "I thought my husband would insist on going east to attack Cao Cao, but I didn't expect that my husband would go with me!"

Liu Xian stopped, held Zhao Yanran's slender hands with both hands, and said softly: "Because we are husband and wife, we always think of each other!"

Zhao Yanran was so heart-warming that she was talking about by Liu Xian, and she nodded with affection.

Liu Xian looked at the beauty in front of him, his heart was filled with infinite affection. Then he looked at the sky and couldn't help but say, "It's getting late, and it's time for us to rest."

Zhao Yanran's heart suddenly felt aroused, and she looked at Liu Xian with an infinite charming expression.

...

Early the next morning, Zhao Yanran led the army south accompanied by Xiahou Qingwu. At the same time, Liu Xian was thinking about the strategy of defeating Liu Bei and recovering Lujiang.

Diao Chan, dressed in military uniform, came in from outside and clasped her fists at Liu Xian and said, "Husband, Fei Ge's letter has been sent."

Liu Xian looked at the map in front of him, thoughtfully nodded, and murmured: "I have done everything I should do, so wait calmly now. I hope my judgment has not made any mistakes."

The city of Lujiang was shrouded in a depressing atmosphere and was very quiet. It was originally a busy and lively time at eight or nine o'clock in the morning, but there were less than half a pedestrian on the streets of Lujiang, and all the shops were closed with their doors, which was a depressing scene.

In the Lujiang Chunfeng Restaurant, the old lady's boss Deng Fangju is talking to several of his men.

She frowned slightly and said, "The Imperial Concubine sent His Majesty the order, which made us start the activity immediately and represent His Majesty's contact with all the subordinates of Liu Bei."

It turns out that Deng Fangju is not an ordinary restaurant owner at all, but the person in charge of Yingfeng in Lujiang under Diao Chan's command. This Chunfeng Restaurant is the stronghold of Yingfeng in Lujiang.

After hearing Deng Fangju's words, everyone showed an excited expression and said, "I finally have a chance to make contributions to Your Majesty! I saw my colleagues making many contributions before, and the anxiety in my heart is really undesirable to describe it in words!"

Others agreed.

Deng Fangju smiled slightly and then said seriously: "Since Your Majesty has handed over such an important task to us, we must not let down Your Majesty's trust!

This is a major issue, and we must be careful and do our best!”

Everyone agreed.

Deng Fangju explained Liu Xian’s request in detail, then assigned tasks and formulated specific lobbying strategies. It was not until noon that everyone dispersed.

On the other side, the main force led by Zhao Yanran went south and drove straight to the Yangtze River.

Ma Teng rode his horse to catch up with Zhao Yanran, clasped his fists and said, "Grandmaster, I heard that the Governor is preparing to send a general to lead the cavalry to cross the river first?"

Zhao Yanran nodded and said, "I originally planned to let Lu Bu cross the river first for the forward, but Lu Bu was not able to ride a horse because of his physical discomfort. I am worried about the candidate for this forward!"

Ma Teng immediately clasped his fists and said, "If the Grand Commander can trust the last general, the last general is willing to lead the cavalry as the vanguard of the army and cross the river first!"

Zhao Yanran looked at Ma Teng and felt that Ma Teng was originally the leader of the Western Liang Army. He was both wise and brave, and was good at cavalry tactics. He led the cavalry first, which was not inferior to Lu Bu.

As soon as he thought of this, he smiled and said, "The general is both wise and brave, and he is the right candidate for this striker. Then, let the general lead 10,000 light cavalry to cross the river first!

Remember, the general’s mission is to stand for the army, and do not go deeper rashly. After crossing the river, guard the bridgehead to meet the army to cross the river!”

Ma Teng was very happy, clasped his fists and agreed, then turned his head and ran down.

After a while, Ma Teng led his 10,000 cavalry to leave the brigade and galloped towards the river first.

Ma Teng ran and shouted to his subordinates: "Everything is done! Try to build a floating bridge and cross the river in one day!" The officers and soldiers agreed, and their morale was very high.
