Peng Lize has been building a naval base here for several years since he won Yuzhang.
The taxes of Yuzhang County didn''t do anything, and they all fell into this naval base. The construction of docks, ports and shipbuilding bases all need a lot of manpower, which makes Pengze County prosper rapidly.
In particular, Jiang Qin and Zhou Tai took thousands of water thieves to join them. After joining them, the combat power of the Navy advanced by leaps and bounds and increased rapidly.
Today, there are 60000 sailors and a large number of logistics personnel here. They have been here for three or four years and more than a year later.
Devote yourself to training for several years so that you can run across the river and dominate the south of the Yangtze River. Even if the North fails to compete for hegemony in the future, it can still form a confrontation between the north and the south by relying on the natural danger of the Yangtze River.
It was Huang zulai who decided to clear Yuan Shu''s Navy this time.
Qiji''s opinion on Huang Zu comes from his domineering. When Liu Biao first entered Jingzhou, Huang Zu chose to take refuge and was appointed governor of Jiangxia, which contributed greatly to Liu Biao''s stabilization of the situation in Jingzhou. In history, Huang Zu had the ability to resist sun Wuda with the power of Jiang Xia for ten years.
But in this world, because there was no Sun Wu, no one hung him, and no need for Liu Biao''s support, Huang Zu''s mentality expanded. He said one thing in Jiangxia. Last time he came to Yuzhang to pick up a bargain, Liu Biao didn''t brush his face.
So the trick didn''t catch him at all.
But this time, Huang Zu was chosen as the main general to lead the battle against Yuan Shu''s navy.
It''s comfort and exchange.
Before, Liu Biao, with CAI Mao as the main general, presided over the Jiaozhou war. After the news came out, Huang Zu immediately went to Xiangyang personally and asked him to command the army south to Jiaozhou.
Jiaozhou was weak. For such obvious credit, the Marquis was no longer granted. Of course, Huang Zu coveted it.
But how could Liu Biao take back the order just announced? To take a step back, Cai Mao is still his brother-in-law. It''s different between relatives and strangers.
Cai Mao was already at odds with Huang Zu. He ignored Huang Zu, not to mention giving up his position as commander of the southern expedition.
But Huang Zu put on a dogged attitude, that is, he didn''t want to go back to Xiangyang.
Although Liu Biao was upset, he thought about Huang Zu''s work and couldn''t bear to be punished, so he recalled the trick and asked him to solve it.
Naturally, the trick would not be easy for Huang Zu. After a quarrel with Huang Zu, he finally agreed to let Huang Zu lead the war to defeat Yuan Shu''s navy.
In exchange, after the war, Huang Zu stepped down as governor of Jiangxia and returned to Xiangyang as one of the nine Qing''s Shaofu Qing.
……
Looking at the bustling penglize naval base, Huang Zu felt some emotion.
He is already in his forties and is not young. Naturally, he can see the vigorous spirit of Xiangyang today.
Most of this is due to the eldest son Liu Kun. In just seven or eight years since Chu Ping volunteered to serve as Xiangyang County lieutenant in the first year of Chu Ping, no one had expected today''s grand occasion.
Of course, he always wanted to stay in Jiangxia. After all, this is the ancestral land of Huang family, which has natural advantages. But he knew better that Xiangyang would not allow him to stay like this all the time.
If Xiangyang is weak, or there is such a possibility, but now Xiangyang will occupy half a big man and still don''t stop. If he persists in staying, it is estimated that Xiangyang will attack him at the next moment.
A rapidly developing force can''t tolerate anyone who doesn''t obey orders, and he becomes the one who doesn''t want to obey orders. If Xiangyang wants to continue its external expansion, it will clear itself of this unstable factor first.
Or transfer, or... Kill.
He still knows the truth of the cunning rabbit dead running dog cooking, even though he is not a cunning rabbit running dog.
So when the eldest son set up Yiyang County last time, he didn''t object. This time, he took the opportunity to take the initiative to leave Jiangxia.
He is a bit domineering and wants to be domineering on his own territory, but at the same time, he is also a talent trained by an aristocratic family. He has a clear view of the situation and is not so stubborn. He has to carry it to the end.
If, if Xiangyang can really seize the world, what if you give up Jiangxia?
There are many rich places in the Central Plains!
……
"General Huang, penglize naval base has 50000 soldiers, 10000 other sailors, maintenance and other auxiliary soldiers, 11 building ships, more than 300 ships, more than 500 Fighting Ships and more than 1200 walking boats. Except for a few sick, they are all here." Hua Xin to Huang Zudao.
As the governor of Yuzhang, Hua Xin is also the person in charge of the naval base and the supreme officer.
The great man''s Taishou is a combination of military and political affairs. There is no suitable candidate for the trick. Hua Xin is responsible for it for the time being.
"Thank you, Mr. Washington." Huang Zu said with a smile, "I intend to send troops in three days, sweep along the way, and maybe make a trip?"
"No problem." Hua Xin said, "the first response materials for the army have been prepared a few months ago."
"That''s good. Let''s go. Mr. Washington will introduce the heroes of the army to the general, so that the general can know well and not be caught blind on the battlefield." Huang Zu smiled.
……
Three days later, 10000 water troops came out of Jiangxia, swept away the barracks along the river in Lujiang County, and joined Huang Zu at Peng Lize. After that, he joined the army and continued to flow down the river, pulling out Yuan Shu''s naval camp all the way from Lujiang River to Huainan.
The order of the trick is that after this war, Yuan Shu is not allowed to cross the river alone.
For this reason, not only Chiang chin and Zhou Tai, but also taishici and Gan Ning, as well as Dong Chong and Zhu Huan, are here to fight this battle well.
……
Huainan Shouchun, Yuan Shu received the news of the Southern Han Navy''s attack along the river the next day and immediately convened civil and military affairs.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the Southern Han Dynasty captured Ruyin, and then Huainan will hit me. Now the navy is coming again, and you can resist the enemy?" Yuan Shu asked.
“……”
"I talk freely on weekdays. Why don''t I make a noise now?" Seeing that no one answered, Yuan Shu was very angry and asked.
"Your Majesty, I swear to death not to let the Southern Han Army enter Huainan." A senior general took the lead.
"Ji Qing''s family, I depend on you." Yuan Shu sighed.
In those days, he was also under the command of many generals. Now only one Ji Ling dares to speak and is so depressed.
"Your Majesty, why don''t you make peace!" Someone suggested.
"Your Majesty, we still have Lujiang and Huainan counties. They are all rich places. We may not be as good as the four sides, but the ministers are confident to hold on." Liu Xun said.
There was a sudden quarrel in the hall.
"All right, shut up." Yuan Shu angrily said, "the problem now is that the Southern Han army is sweeping away our navy along the river. This is where you need your advice."
The navy is a gold eater. No matter how rich Yuan Shu''s family is, he is not willing to invest in this aspect, which affects his enjoyment.
Otherwise, how can Liu Yao, a mere 20000 sailors, stop Yuan Shu from going south?
The bad result was that when the trick came, Yuan Shu''s navy was vulnerable.
"Your Majesty, up to now, you can only give orders to abandon the river and preserve effective power." Yan Xiang sighed and suggested.
This is the way to cure the symptoms rather than the root cause. From then on, Dajiang no longer belongs to Yuan Shu.
But he had no other good way. He was tired when Shengsheng was tossed like this by the Lord.
"That''s it." Yuan Shu was also somewhat disappointed. "Watch the trend of Ruyin and Liu Kun. In addition, let all the sailors go ashore, ten miles from the river, find the city and enter, so that the Southern Han Navy returned in vain."
With this command, Yuan Shu was already thinking about something else.
Huainan is no longer safe. Is it a different place?
