“Very good!” Kuai Liang asked Deng Long again “General Deng Long Do you want to obtain bigxia ar Navy Where was the e to capture Jiangxia and chase away Zhou Yu! Do you think your Lord Huang Zu would value you? At that tiovernor” Kuai Liang continued to te Zu but he also knew that Deng Long has alanted a higher post He has ability, otherwise he would not be dispatched by Huang Zu in the first place Before this, he was inferior to Su Fei and Huang Zhong That is why he never had one, perhaps Deng Long would succeed However, Jiangxia was occupied by the Jiangdong Ar Zu was unable to defend hiive hi us to take these warshi+ps to do a decisive battle against Zhou Yu?” Deng Long was a bit afraid However, Zhou Yu was the person who ed to suppress 70,000 soldiers with only 30,000 soldiers until a stale showed a trace of disdain which was about to beco expression
“It is not that I a to ad could explain, Kuai Liang interrupted hi Do you know hi asked as he walked to the front of the towered shi+p

“Hahaha, that is ’s best warrior!” Kuai Liang was not stingy with praises
“Mr Zi Rou has praisedalso became happy It is just a battle! As warriors, it is expected for the unable to be promoted, it is better to risk his own life At the very least he could have a brighter future If Gan Ning was able to defeat the Jiangdong Ar the sa
“Drop the banner!” Kuai Liang gave out the first co about it toowas also a proure as he and his brother both helped Liu Biao to capture Jingzhou
Unfortunately, Liu Biao lost his fighting spirit and did not want to conquerhas lost a place to make use of his skills If it was seen properly, the realand not Cai Mao
The Jingzhou navy continued on the river but did not return to Jingzhou They went straight to Zhou Yu’s base at Sanjiangkou
These days, there would be an outbreak of war every day The two artze River As Jiangxia was at a higher point of the river, dead bodies wearing ar down the river
“Is it the Jiangdong navy’s kou It was not like the Wan Cheng rivers that could only have a tee base, or in other words, a naval city Not only is it a place to garrison soldiers but it was also a unique geographical location and had 3 paths
Kuai Liang could see the banners and the Jiangdong navy The river was heavily guarded by elites No one was sleeping and the soldiers were staring at the River These were the elites under Zhou Yu’s cokou and the opposing naval force The lookouts could also see thee This fleet did not have any banner Yet, they already had 20 shi+ps which was enough to be considered a sher authorities as he was unable to identify if the fleet were enekou there is an unidentified fleet!” The e was delivered one by one until it reached the person in charge of guarding, which was Han Dang This person was the Sun family’s old official that was proficient in horseback archery As a result, he was appreciated by Sun Jian and was always taken along for expeditions He broke through enemy lines and captured the enemy many times until he was promoted into a Minister of War He also provided help in conquering Jiangdong He was already at a refineh he becath has not decreased
After he heard that there was an unknown fleet, Han Dang quickly rushed towards the naval base He glanced at the fleet and saw over 20 shi+ps The shi+ps slowly approached the Sanjiangkou “These warshi+ps?” Han Dang looked at the warshi+ps that did not have any identification zhou Navy’s shi+p as the Jingzhou Navy’s camp was upstream while these shi+ps caht to himself Could these be the Lu Bu’s Army’s warshi+ps?
“Are these not the Lu Bu’s Ar and asked
“Lu Bu’s Army warshi+ps? Are you sure?” Han Dan asked back Is it those that send Jiang Qin’s shi+ps into the botto I a The shi+ps came froe of patrolling the area during the negotiations He saw Gan Ning’s Navy and was afraid that Gan Ning caraced Slave-with-three-surna showed disdain His impression of Lu Bu has always been bad His old lord Sun Jian and new lord Sun Ce has both been defeated by Lu Bu before Han Dang was a person who considered those fighting against the Jiangdong Are things on the warshi+ps!?” The officer pointed at the ballistae wraped in black cloth “That weapon was so only the Lu Bu’s Navy has It was the reason General Jiang Qin was cozhou and even saved a few of the soldiers who fell in the Yangtze River and helped them escaped He also heard froh the towered shi+ps causing it to sink
“The ballistae!” Han Dang was also a Sun Ce’s Army’s officer and naturally knehat the ballista is “H here? Is he trying to show off his strength!?”
Han Dang was very unhappy The Lu Bu’s Arht now It is i to appear now and open hostilities The Lu Bu’s Army would definitely follow the rules whichoff for! After a few days, ould also have ballistae!” Han Dang has learned about this fro has obtained the blueprints for the ballista and has already begun constructions The first one was already co for it to be transported with the other shi+pments As they are in the front lines, all theobtained the ballista, he would use Gan Ning’s navy as a target practice At worst, they would just pay gold as compensation for the accidental shot
“This ’s navy!” Another officer spoke up He has fought Gan Ning before when Gan Ning was less known However, hebattle after he went under Lu Bu’s co was the Jin Fan Zei which is why he likes to be on the warshi+p using cloth to decorate the shi+p and also a bell The ringing bell was the sign of Gan Ning appearing
Kuai Liang’s shi+p had the cloth and the bell because Gan Ning did not e to take it away in ti’s navy would be a pleasant surprise for the JIngzhou’s Navy
“General, the soldiers are becozhou’s Navy were fighting Both parties were trying to attack each other’s weakness Otherwise, it would be too costly as the amount of provisions needed would betiive up half of Jiangxia The Jingzhou Navy also could not allow the Jiangdong navy to s up the city As a result, there is a deadlock The consue every day was a lot as the soldiers need to prepare for war Proper ratiosn were given to those in the Jiangdong’s army as yhe first was to prepare for hile the second purpose was to boost zhou Navy’sThey were pretty much defeated by now
