Chapter 688 Liao Hua reads Spring and Autumn Period
The surging river water rolls eastwards.
On the river, there are many warships, following the eastward direction of the river.
The green mountains on both sides of the bank are verdant, and the sound of apes can be heard from time to time.
The weather was sunny at this time, and looking from a distance, it seemed quiet and peaceful.
However, as we got closer and saw the chilling atmosphere on the many ships, it made people feel that even the temperature at this time seemed to have dropped a bit.
Gan Ning was wearing a leather armor, with a steel knife on his waist and a steel fork in his hand, standing on the warship.
Although the warship seemed bumpy, to him, it felt like walking on flat ground.
The bumps here are nothing at all.
At this time, he was very motivated and seemed quite excited.
It has been so long since I have been under the emperor's uncle's command, and I have never really fought on a large scale.
Raise an army for a thousand days and use it for a while.
At this time, they finally have to let their navy take the field!
This time, no matter what, we must have a good fight with those people in Jingzhou!
Knock these people to their knees!
With such achievements, he can also show his majesty as Gan Ning!
Let them know that as a river robber, he is not only capable of robbing rivers!
He hung a copper bell around his waist. When the ship was bumpy, the river wind blew the bell and made a tinkling sound.
Compared with the surrounding environment, it makes it feel a little more quiet.
However, there was blood rolling in Gan Ning's heart.
Looking forward to the next fight.
Zhang Liao walked in the middle, sat on the warship, and looked around.
Watching the scenery on both sides of the Taiwan Strait continue to recede, my heart can't help but rise and fall.
He has been training here for so long, and today, he is finally going to the battlefield again.
Have a big war.
It's just that this time, it's very different from previous times.
In the past, battles were fought on the ground.
This time it was a water battle.
The leader was also a navy man.
This made Zhang Liao somewhat uneasy.
But that's all.
In his heart, he still had strong self-confidence.
He, Zhang Liao, Zhang Wenyuan, this time used actions and real military exploits to show everyone that he, Zhang Liao, Zhang Wenyuan, was a general on horseback before.
But now that we were on this warship, the thieves who could still be killed jumped up with their heads in their arms!
Uncle Liu Huang was right!
I will never let down my uncle!
Taishi Ci led the rear army and followed behind.
Regarding the upcoming battle, Taishi Ci also showed no fear at all.
More, still can’t wait.
He, Tai Shici, was not an ordinary person either.
The fighting power is extremely strong immediately, and it is also the same on the warship.
When I was at the beach before, I experienced many strong winds and waves.
At this time, he came to the river. For him who grew up by the sea, the rolling river was nothing more than that.
I heard that Jingzhou Navy is relatively powerful, but so what?
Here, I can lead the navy to defeat them quickly.
I had made some achievements in Tongguan before.
Not too big.
Moreover, after all, there is still some suspicion of trickery.
This time, he used an upright battle to let everyone know that Tai Shi Ci was able to be so reused by the emperor's uncle, and it was not just good luck!
But he really has the ability!
When Zhang Liao and others were sailing down the river in a warship.
There are also soldiers and horses on the land of Yizhou, marching all the way east.
There are three leading generals.
One is Yan Yan, the other is Wu Yi, and the other is Liao Hua who was stationed in Hanzhong before.
By this time, Yizhou had stabilized.
With Liu Cheng’s previous cleanup, as well as various subsequent policies, as well as everything Xun You and Xun Gongda made here.
By this time, Yizhou had been completely included in Liu Cheng's rule.
Some of the influence left by Liu Yan and others were completely eliminated.
In addition, Liu Cheng became the king of Han, and at this time he had become the orthodoxy of the Han Dynasty.
Occupy righteousness.
Under this situation, the situation here in Yizhou has become impregnable.
At least Xun You, who was at Mianzhu, could make a guarantee to Liu Cheng at this time.
The navy here in Yizhou, as well as Liao Hua and other soldiers and horses, just send out, there will definitely be no chaos here.
He really dared to make this guarantee.
Because at this time, since Uncle Liu Huang took Yizhou, he has been in charge of the government here.
Many people here have benefited from Uncle Liu Huang.
These days, overall, life is much better than before.
The vast majority of people have benefited.
This kind of benefit is not the same as when Liu Yan was in Yizhou. Only a small number of people benefited.
But the real vast majority of people.
Under this situation, many people in Yizhou paid special respect to Uncle Liu Huang at this time.
Support from the heart.
It is also for this reason that Xun You, a person who has always been more practical and not able to say big words, dared to slap his chest in front of Liu Cheng and say such words...
Yan Yan, Wu Yi, and Liao Hua, with their troops and horses, headed east along the road.
Compared with Zhang Liao, Gan Ning and others who went down by boat, it was much slower for them to walk.
After all, the road from Sichuan to Jingzhou is actually not easy to walk.
And if you walk by yourself, you need to rest.
The same goes for taking a boat.
The people and soldiers in the boat only need to sit on it and go down the river.
Even so, their speed was not too slow.
Regarding the upcoming battle to the east, everyone from the generals to the soldiers revealed a burst of excitement in their hearts.
Extremely impatient.
After all, they have been recuperating here in Yizhou for a long time now.
I also heard that after the emperor's uncle returned to Guanzhong with his troops, he attacked Liangzhou and the Xiongnu, and recovered a lot of places.
Many people have made great achievements because of this.
He received many rewards and was promoted.
I am really envious in my heart.
And this battle was the first battle after the emperor's uncle became the King of Han.
Moreover, it is of great significance to fight directly to the exit.
Although there is no formal document explaining it, they all understand it in their hearts.
After Uncle Liu Huang became the King of Han, it was certain that he would continue on and reach the highest position in the world.
This time they went to Jingzhou to attack, and some of them had a series of battles waiting for them in front.
It can be said to be a battle to found a country.
As long as Uncle Liu Huang can maintain victory in the next battle.
Cleaned up the world.
Then there is absolutely no problem for him to transform from the King of Han to the Emperor of Han.
As for those of them who have been following Uncle Liu since the beginning, as long as they can perform well enough, they will definitely have many official positions, titles, and rewards in the future.
You can definitely become a hero from Conglong!
There are not many opportunities like this!
In the past, many things in the Han Dynasty have become saturated.
Many things have been occupied by fixed people.
It is impossible to move up based on their background and abilities.
They try their best, but they can only be in the middle or upper middle.
If I want to continue going up again, I can't do it even if I squeeze my head and try my best.
But now, the world is in chaos, and Uncle Liu Huang has risen strongly.
And before Liu Huangshu rose, they joined Liu Huangshu's command for various reasons.
Under such circumstances, as long as they can continue to follow Uncle Liu Huang, their achievements in this life will be absolutely unlimited!
Able to reach heights that were unimaginable in the past!
How can they not be excited and high-spirited?
Uncle Liu Huang has always had an extremely dazzling record.
When it comes to fighting, I have never lost or submitted to anyone.
These people are the generals under Uncle Liu Huang, so naturally they are the same!
Liu Yan, Yizhou, has dangerous mountains and rivers.
It was destroyed in the same way before.
Now that Uncle Liu Huang wants to take action, how can Liu Biao in Jingzhou resist?
This is a God-given achievement!
Those of them who fight under Uncle Liu Huang are not afraid of anyone at all!
Among the few people, Liao Hua was the most excited.
To this day, he can still recall the scene when he first met the emperor's uncle.
He is just a yellow turban bandit who fights against the mountain as his king.
If he hadn't met the emperor's uncle, the best outcome in his life would be to work under someone and become a minor general, nothing more.
However, since meeting the emperor's uncle, I, a person who was looked down upon by others in the past, has become completely different.
Able to lead troops to fight.
In the past, it was even more guarding one side.
After such a long period of experience, and still holding a large army to garrison in Hanzhong, Liao Hua's overall temperament has been greatly different at this time.
It looks more dignified.
He is also more mature and stable.
Moreover, Liao Hua never relaxed.
In the evening, I often sit there and read Spring and Autumn Annals.
Learn the art of war and tactics.
There are all kinds of other things.
I study until very late.
In addition to handling government affairs, he has never slackened on his martial arts.
Because he knew that he was just following the emperor's uncle earlier, so he got the upper hand.
Really speaking, when it comes to fighting, commanding troops, and other things, he is far behind him and cannot compare with the many people under the emperor's uncle.
He can't compare to people like Li Jin, Zhang Liao, Xu Huang, and Huang Zhong.
He can deeply feel his own shortcomings.
So I have been working very hard.
I'm afraid that one day, I won't be able to keep up with the footsteps of my uncle, and I will be left very far behind.
He doesn't want this to happen.
Moreover, he could also remember what the emperor's uncle had said to him before.
That is, talent determines a person's upper limit, but hard work determines a person's lower limit.
At that time, Liao Hua did not understand the somewhat strange words of the emperor's uncle.
Later, after thinking about it carefully, I realized what the emperor's uncle meant.
This shocked him greatly.
So I have been working hard like this for such a long time.
By this time, Liao Hua had grown and matured a lot.
I don’t know how much better he is than he was back then.
There are no generals in Shu, so Liao Hua becomes the vanguard. This famous saying in history refers to the helplessness of Shu Han after the talents there withered.
Moreover, it sounds like a look down on Liao Hua.
This is not the case.
From another perspective, we can also see the growth of Liao Hua.
After a lifetime of fighting, he has matured and grown a lot from the unknown boy he was back then.
It can be seen that his later growth is terrifying...
Here in Jingzhou, Liu Biao had already prepared.
I am always paying attention to the trends in Yizhou.
As soon as Zhang Liao, Gan Ning and others were dispatched, they quickly learned the news
Not far from Jingzhou and Yizhou, there is a place called Red Snake Mountain.
The peaks on both sides of the bank are opposite here, and the current is relatively fast.
However, because there is a red snake mountain blocking the shore, there is a beach further downstream.
The current in the center of the river is rapid, but at the beach it is gentle.
Very suitable for building a water village.
And here, a water village has already been established.
Except for those guarding against Sun Jian, the rest of Jingzhou's naval forces were basically gathered here.
It's just for precaution, the soldiers and horses from Yizhou will roll down.
After Liu Cheng occupied Yizhou, he put great pressure on Liu Biao and others below.
Even before, Liu Cheng's troops and horses had been stationary in Yizhou and had no time to move out.
Liu Biao actually didn't dare to relax in any way.
I have always been thinking about how to defend against Liu Cheng's navy in Yizhou.
Therefore, his water village was built with great care.
There are also countless warships lined up.
What's even more terrible is that at this time, several iron locks appeared in two relatively narrow places on the Red Snake Mountain and the opposite White Snake Mountain.
Cross the river directly and cut off the river.
There are several rows of large bamboo rafts tied to the iron ropes.
Towards the upstream end, the bamboos that make up the bamboo raft are sharply cut.
They rely on iron locks and float quietly here, looking like a pontoon bridge.
However, its real function is not to allow people to walk
Rather, it was a sharp weapon used to block warships from upstream and down the river.
Iron ropes block rivers and can block warships.
And these rows of thick and sharp bamboo rafts can also stop the warships flowing down the river.
Others can even penetrate into warships and pierce them.
This caused the warship to sink.
In addition, Cai Hao and Zhang Yun have various other preparations.
For this reason, Cai Mao and Zhang Yun did not panic after receiving the news that Zhang Liao, Gan Ning and others led the navy to move down the river.
On the contrary, there are still some who are eager to try.
It is said that Liu Cheng, the traitor, has become so famous that many people are already afraid even before he fights.
I get scared when I hear Liu Cheng's name.
This time, they want to have a good competition!
As long as they can defeat Liu Cheng's Yizhou Navy, he and Zhang Yun will be able to become famous all over the world this time!!
"Let them come as they please.
We have been preparing for a long time and have many great gifts to give them.
It’s just a matter of death!”
Cai Mao held the knife at his waist, drank down the wine in front of him, and said with a smile.
Although he was laughing, his voice was filled with strong confidence and calmness...
