Zhou Yu has been very busy these two days. Of course, it is not to deal with Guo Jia. To be honest, the battle at Huaihe River has no meaning for Zhou Yu. Actually, he is still squatting here mainly to satisfy Sun Ce's desire to fight.
Otherwise, Zhou Yu would have led his troops back now. After all, Zhou Yu knew very well that in the current situation, he could decide the world by himself, which would ruin his righteousness. Guan Yu and Guo Jia were destined not to cross the Huaihe River and stationed in Huainan, because they would definitely die if they were beaten by him.
He could only escape alone.
"Have Gongyi and Shiyuan almost dredged the rivers in Kuaiji and southern Yuzhang?" Zhou Yu asked, looking at the intelligence coming from behind.
Unlike building rivers in the north, in the south, especially in the south where there are many rivers, it cannot be called building rivers, it can only be called dredging.
"General Sun said that the dredging has been completed. The two counties of Guiyang and Lingling in Jingnan still need some time to be dredged. The prefect Cangwu and the prefect Yulin of Jiaozhou are already on the line. However, compared to the prefect Yulin, the prefect Cangwu has already taken the initiative to contact
We are here." Lu Fan reported the current information to Zhou Yu.
"Well, Zhongmou did a good job, Cangwu Prefect Wu Ju?" Zhou Yu thought for a while and said, "Kill him when the time comes."
Lu Fan looked at Zhou Yu with a puzzled look on his face. This was an internal attack. Just kill him anyway. Didn't this chill the hearts of those who surrendered?
"Nine times out of ten he has bad intentions, it's better to deal with it. If you think about our current situation for a moment, you should know that Wu Ju should not be attached to us from any angle." Zhou Yu explained after a few moments.
"I'll deal with this matter later." Lu Fan thought for a moment and understood, "I won't leave anything behind at that time."
"Leave it to you. Have there been any movements recently between Guan Yu and Guo Jia across the river? Hasn't Gan Ning, whom I asked to pay attention to, shown up yet?" Zhou Yu asked while browsing the political strategy.
"They are still logging, but recently they have not built many ships, and they have begun to build pontoons at the narrow mouth of the Huai River." Lu Fan said with a hint of ridicule, "So far, they have only built more than a hundred steps. To that extent,
It’s basically impossible to repair it anymore.”
"Huh?" Zhou Yu raised his head and frowned obviously. Although Guo Jia didn't understand things like water fighting and river crossing, he didn't make such an obvious mistake. What's even more incredible is that building a pontoon bridge where the water flow is so fast is
What an incredible idea.
"What does Guo Fengxiao want to do?" Zhou Yu pressed his temples and said with a slight headache, "Abandoning yourself or do you want to confuse us?"
"It is impossible for them to cross the Huaihe River without a boat, and the small boats they have built now are of no use to our patrols. Moreover, the large boats we patrol have also been divided into defense zones at your request, Gongjin."
Lu Fan looked at Zhou Yu with admiration on his face.
After Zhou Yu moved the camp to Guan Yu, their camp was not moved at all, but the patrol range of each ship was divided.
Although this seems to be a lot more rigid, the result is that if Guan Yu wants to cross the river, he must either take a boat from a place more than 20 miles downstream from Zhou Yu and more than 40 miles downstream from Guan Yu, or he must go more than 20 miles upstream from Guan Yu and upstream from Zhou Yu.
Take a boat to a place more than 40 miles away.
Zhou Yu said that his patrols were not deployed that far, but the problem was that if Guan Yu led his soldiers, on the one hand, he would not be able to move sixty miles back and forth and cross the river and still have the ability to fight Zhou Yu, who was waiting for work. On the other hand, it was also because the military advisor was Guo Yu.
Jia was not Xun You. He led his army to move sixty miles without being discovered. This was not something a normal person could do.
In short, Zhou Yu's approach was destined that Guan Yu who wanted to cross the river to fight Zhou Yu could only cross the river where Zhou Yu was patrolling with boats. Otherwise, he would either have no fighting power after crossing, or his intentions would be discovered if he moved too far.
It's not like everyone is like Xia Houyuan, who can lead his men to run dozens of miles and quickly enter the battle. Guan Yu's legionary talent is not good at running.
"Don't underestimate Guo Jia, and don't underestimate Guan Yu. Not to mention other things, the quality shown in responding to our attacks has far exceeded our previous opponents." Zhou Yu shook his head and warned.
Perhaps seeing Lu Fan's expression, Zhou Yu had nothing to say to such a veteran, "Just send someone to keep an eye on the other side, and remember to notify me if any problems arise."
"Here!" Lu Fan turned around and left without saying anything after hearing Zhou Yu's arrangement.
"Build a pontoon bridge?" Zhou Yu said to himself with a hint of curiosity, "Guo Jia, do you really think you can build a pontoon bridge on the Huaihe River? Even if I can't send ships to patrol the narrow mouth due to water issues, but
Every hour, there will be a big ship upstream or downstream looking over there, I am really curious..."
[However, even if Guo Jia successfully crosses the river in some way, he still cannot get around the most essential point. Bo Fu and I are the most important targets. If we can cross the Huaihe River in a very short time, then attacking Bo Fu and me is the best option.
The choice...]
While thinking about it, Zhou Yu took out a chess piece from the chess set aside and pressed it directly on the table, as if there was the unique Tianyuan position there.
[Bo Fu and I must be your attack targets, which means we already know the result. In this case, let me play one more game with you before leaving to see how capable you Guo Jia is.] Zhou Yu
Playing with the chess pieces in his hand, his heart moved.
"Come here!" Zhou Yu shouted outside the tent, and soon a personal guard wearing armor appeared in front of Zhou Yu.
Zhou Yu immediately took out a piece of paper and began to write and draw on it, then closed it and said, "Give this to General Wen."
"Here!" The guard put it away respectfully and then retreated.
"After this battle, the Battle of Huai River will come to an end. The practice of judging and matching can no longer be saved. It is a bit ugly to do it because we have lost our righteousness. It is better to expand our strength as soon as possible." Zhou Yu chuckled at this.
Yu said, not caring about possible attacks at all.
"Hey, is it raining?" Guo Jia looked at the sky with a puzzled look. He clearly felt that it was pushed by the guy on the other side of the river, and it covered a very large area.
But Guo Jia was curious. You must know that Zhou Yu had been sweeping away the water vapor some time ago, as if he was ready to create a fire at any time, but now the weather suddenly changed and it started to rain. You must know that the impact of rainy nights on boats in the river is far greater than that on boats.
The land route is larger.
"Are you going to run?" Guo Jia thought with an unhappy look on his face. He finally had to take action tomorrow, but Zhou Yu was actually planning to run away in the rain. "Don't you like rain? You want to run, huh, huh, huh!"
As he spoke, Guo Jia followed Zhou Yu and increased his efforts. The rain fell even harder and more exaggeratedly, and the scope far exceeded Zhou Yu's expectation.
