And at this moment, on the Jiujiang ship.

All the generals reported the battle situation, how many enemies were killed, or how many were recruited.

"Report, report to the general, all the two thousand soldiers and horses in the rear were defeated and fled!"

Gan Ning nodded, indicating that he understood.

"Everyone, this place is only a few tens of miles away from Shaxian Water Village, and we arrived in the blink of an eye. Now that our army has won the first battle, Huang Zu still has [-] to [-] soldiers under his command. Don't be careless."

"I wonder if you have a good plan to defeat the enemy?"

Gan Ning looked around and asked in a deep voice.

"Xingba, it's better to divide the troops by water. You lead your troops to take the Shaxian Water Village, and I lead the troops to take the Shaxian. This will cut off the communication between the two places, and second, it will make the soldiers panic."

Zhao Fan suggested.

"I've also thought about this method, and it's indeed feasible. However, Huang Zu has managed Jiangxia for many years, and it's deeply entrenched. I'm worried that it may not be possible to conquer the city now."

Gan Ning frowned, a little hesitant.

"There is no need to worry about attacking the city. Zhao Yun is still in the city, but the inside should cooperate with the outside. As long as I lead my troops to take Sha Xian first, Huang Zu will not dare to stick to the water village,"

"In this way, most of Jiang Xia will fall into the hands of our army, and we can wait for the arrival of the lord!" Zhao Fan vowed.

He is still full of confidence in the siege. Although there are only 300 Zhao Yun men in the city, there are at least 3000 men with equipment and combat power.

"If that's the case, let's divide up and act!"

"The terrain on the shore here is gentle, and it can directly approach Sha Xian. In this way, Zhao Fan, you lead your troops to directly approach Sha Xian, and I will mediate with Huang Zu on the river." Gan Ning nodded.

It would be best to force Huang Zu back,

Their purpose in this battle is to take down Jiangxia, or take down Shaxian, the Shaxian Water Village controls the mouth of the Han River, and enter Jiangling.

To win Shaxian, the strategic initiative is on your side,

At that time, Liu Biao will always worry about the safety of Jiangling or Xiangyang.

You know, although Jingzhou is rich and prosperous, Jingnan is in the hands of Zhang Xian, Liu Biao only sits on Nanjun and Jiangxia, and Nanyang is ruined and ceded to Zhang Xiu for garrison.

Without Jiang Xia and Jing Nan, Liu Biao is like a tiger without sharp teeth.

The strategic layout reached an agreement, and countless vehicles began to transport Zhao Fan and his army to land. This process will be long, and it will not be easy for anyone who is suitable for crossing the river.

----

At the Shaxian Water Village,

Huang She brought more than a dozen boats and boats back, all of them were ashamed, unable to lift their heads in shame, how arrogant they were when they left, and how embarrassed they were when they came back.

After entering the water village, Huang She went straight to the camp without saying a word.

As soon as he led his lieutenant generals into the camp, he heard that Huang Zu, who was in the first place, was not angry and arrogant, and slapped the teacup on the seat, making a crisp sound.

"You fucking have the face to come back?"

"Father, I,"

"Shut up, I don't have a useless son like you!" Huang Zu scolded angrily, thinking that Huang Zu was famous, but he didn't expect his son to be so stupid.

"My lord, I can't blame the general for this matter. The Chu army is aggressive and well-prepared. Its army has several warships tens of feet in size. These warships are all equipped with catapults and city-breaking crossbows."

"And the enemy's army is far superior to our army in terms of strength and number of warships, so that our army is defeated." The lieutenant explained with lingering fear.

"A warship with the size of tens of feet?" Huang Zu frowned, a little horrified.

"Well, father, the Chu army has several warships like this, and these warships are all made of steel, and arrows and axes can't damage them."

Huang She hurriedly wrote a special book.

"Made of steel?" Huang Zu frowned sullenly.

Although his son is stupid, he is not enough to deceive himself.

"Several zhang is indeed not small, I'm afraid it's no worse than our army's building and boat." Huang Zu pinched his chin and fell into deep thought. This is not good news.

"Father, that thing is much bigger than our military buildings and ships!" Huang She hurriedly added, slandering in his heart, there is a difference between tens and tens, and the length alone may be twice as long.

"It's bigger than a building boat?" Huang Zu was surprised.

"Well, twice as big!" Huang She nodded: "Father, why don't you withdraw, the Chu army is too strong. In today's battle, our army probably didn't kill a few Chu troops!"

With lingering fear in her heart, Huang She spoke weakly.

To be honest, he didn't want to face the torrent of steel. When he met this kind of army on the river, he almost wanted to die.

"You bastard," Huang Zu said angrily, "I think you've lost your mind. Come, someone, take him back to Shaxian to think about his mistakes behind closed doors, and let him come to see me after he thinks clearly."

"No!" The guard immediately responded.

"Father, it's just Gan Ning who came now, and it's just a general under Chu Feng's command. Chu Feng hasn't come yet. If we wait for him to come, our army will definitely be defeated!"

"Father, while Jiang Xia is still in our hands, let's surrender. Chu Feng has always treated surrendered generals generously. With your ability, Father, you will definitely not treat us badly!"

Huang She persuaded unwillingly.

"Get out!" Huang Zu scolded angrily.

He, Huang Zu, had a great reputation, how could he surrender?

What's more, he has long regarded Jiang Xia as his territory, so why is there any reason to give it to Chu Feng directly?So much so that he would never choose to surrender.

Of course, later he hated himself for not listening to Huang She.

"Who dares to fight?" Huang Zu glanced around and asked.

This time, the previous group of generals shrank their heads one by one, and they all remained silent, mainly after listening to Huang She, the Chu army did have something.

A single steel warship made them panic.

"My lord, the Chu army seems to have come prepared. In my opinion, our army can guard the water fortress. We will be the horns of Sha Xian and stand by for reinforcements!"

Zhang Shuo clasped his fists and said in a low voice.

"That's right, if the envoy knew about the entry of the Chu army, he would definitely send people to help as soon as possible. Xiangyang can go down the river from here, but it's only a few days!"

Another person spoke up.

"That's right, stand by and wait for help!"

For a while, all the generals who fought in the previous battle chose to stick to it.

Huang Zu knew in his heart that since the Chu army entered the country, the matter would never end so easily, and Jiang Xia was his territory, so he had to find a way to solve it.

Right now he has no good plan, so he can only stop with silence for the time being!

In the end, this council is over!

Chapter 259 Cai's thoughts!

==============================

Chapter 259 Cai's thoughts!

Jingzhou, within the city of Xiangyang.

As one of the few places in the world where there is no war, Nanjun has a large population. Liu Biao can even become the top princes in the world just by controlling a Nanjun.

It can be seen that Nanjun is rich!

But at this moment, the envoy sent by Huang Zu came to meet Liu Biao in fear.

In the general's mansion, civil and military personnel gathered together.

Seeing that Liu Biao hadn't arrived yet, everyone showed suspicion and chatted left and right, "Everyone, do you know what's going on, my lord is so anxious to let us come here?"

"I don't know, but something big must have happened!" Another person answered.

"Big event? Chu Feng is in Xuzhou, Cao Cao is in Guandu, what big event can there be? Could it be that Zhang Xian broke through the front line?" Someone speculated.

In the end, everyone still failed to say one, two, three.

At this moment, Liu Biao, who was nearly [-] years old, came striding forward, with a dignified face, striding towards the first place, looking around at the crowd, and said in a deep voice, "Everyone, be quiet!"

"My lord, why are you in such a hurry?" Cai Mao clasped his fists and asked, he had someone along the Jingnan route, but he didn't hear the news from Jingnan that something happened.

Everyone also looked over curiously.

"The Chu army invaded Jiangxia, and the counties and towns along the way were waiting for the wind. Now that the Chu army is approaching Sha Xian, Huang Zu sent people to ask for help!" Liu Biao said in a solemn voice.

"The Chu army invaded?" Everyone panicked for a moment, and they all whispered to each other.

Chu Feng has a special status, he is a descendant of the Yuan family, one-third of them present are disciples of the Yuan family, if Chu Feng marches into Jingzhou, they really don't know who to help.

"My lord, isn't Chu Feng's army entangled with Cao Cao and Yuan Shao in Xuzhou? Why did they suddenly attack Jiangxia?" Kuai Liang frowned and asked in surprise.

"This is where Chu Feng is deceitful. He used our normal thinking to know that he would not attack, so we didn't take precautions. This is the problem."

Liu Biao lashed out angrily, a little angrily.

"This" everyone was silent.

"But this time the commander of the navy is Gan Ning, the commander of the infantry is Zhao Fan, Chu Feng did not come in person." Liu Biao was somewhat relieved, he was also very afraid of Chu Feng.

"My lord, Chu Feng is extremely brave, and his subordinates are all elite soldiers, but these are all infantry, not proficient in water warfare. And most of Chu's army is in Xuzhou, and the troops in Jingzhou must be weak."

"What's more, Chu Feng didn't personally conscript, so it's nothing to worry about."

"As for that Gan Ning, he was only a small school in our army in the early years, and this water bandit Chu Feng still reused him, so it can be seen that he has no good generals in the water army under his command."

"The last general thought that General Huang Zu shot and killed Sun Jian in his early years, made many military exploits, and had [-] fine-armored boat divisions under his command, so he would definitely be able to stop the Chu army's westward advance."

Cai Mao strode out and said loudly.

"My lord, what General Cai said is very true. Chu Feng is still in Xuzhou, and there are no more than [-] to [-] generals. With General Huang Zu's ability, he can easily deal with it."

Zhang Yun glanced at Cai Mao, and strode in agreement.

How could he not know the purpose of Cai Mao's words? Obviously, Cai Mao wanted to take the opportunity to suppress Huang Zu and Jiang Xia's army, the only thing Liu Biao could count on.

The first thing he saw was that both Jiang Xia and the Chu army would suffer losses, and then he could lead his troops to take over Jiang Xia. In this way, it would be a step further for Jingzhou to be under the control of his Cai family.

You know, Liu Cong is a puppet of his Cai family.

Hearing this, Liu Biao's brows tightened and his chest swelled and ached. This was the situation. Cai Mao thought it was ironic that he was still suppressing himself and controlling Jingzhou.

"My lord, although what General Cai said is true, I am not afraid of [-], but just in case. Once Sha Xian falls, the Chu army can go north along the Han River and directly press down on Xiangyang City."

"Maybe we can go west along the Yangtze River and take Jiangling directly. There is no room for loss in these two places. Liang suggests sending troops to help, just in case!" Kuai Liang said hastily.

After finishing speaking, he narrowed his eyes and glanced at Cai Mao,

How could he not know that the Cai family wanted to monopolize Jingzhou, but the Cai family held military power, and he couldn't compete, but he must not let Jiang Xia also fall into the hands of the Cai family.

This is the best situation right now.

Liu Biao has military power and political power, but the military power is smaller than that of the Cai family, and the political power is smaller than that of the Kuai family.He, Kuai Liang, was stupid, and he would not let the situation get out of balance.

"We second the proposal!" All the civil servants said in unison.

They are all in line with the Kuai family. The Cai family's annexation of Jingzhou is not good for them. It is not as good as Liu Biao. They naturally don't want the Cai family to succeed.

Hearing these words, Cai Mao's eyes were gloomy, these bastards are really hateful.

"What Kuai Liang said is right. Sha Xian is very important and cannot be lost. Zhang Yun listens to the order and asks you to dispatch [-] elite soldiers to help Sha Xian and cooperate with Huang Zu to defend Sha Xian."

Liu Biao said loudly.

"This," Zhang Yun hesitated, and looked at Cai Mao blankly, obviously asking whether he should agree or not.

"Why, can't I hear you? Do you still need to help others? Or do you not care what the lord of my state said?" Liu Biao was furious, Zhang Yun was still his nephew,

Of course, he and Cai Mao are the same way!

"The last general dare not!" Zhang Yun clasped his fists hastily.

"Okay, that's the arrangement for this matter. In addition, Duoduo sent scouts to inquire about the battle situation in Xuzhou. I am worried that Chu Feng is not just so simple to let his generals come."

Liu Biao pressed his palm, his mind solemn.

Based on what he knew about Chu Feng, this person was definitely not someone who would scare the snake away. I'm afraid he still has a back hand, but he just didn't know it!

"No!" Everyone responded and retreated.
