Cao Cao suddenly became interested and turned downstairs. He suddenly stopped again and turned to Yu Jin, who accompanied him to inspect the canal, and said, "Before dawn tomorrow, this canal must be completed, and no delay is allowed."

Yu Jin's heart was extremely bitter, and at least he had to dig out the sky to complete it. Now he had to complete it before dawn tomorrow. How could he do it? But he didn't dare to say no, so he bowed and said, "As for the orders of humble duties."

Cao Cao hurried towards the water camp, and Zang Ba next to him whispered to the ban: "The Prime Minister wants to complete it before dawn, what can I do?"

Yu Jin sighed, "Since the Prime Minister requested this way, then I will ask for an additional ten thousand people. Otherwise, we will not be able to kill us."

Wulin Wharf is a very small pier, which usually only docks with ordinary civilian ferries. However, after Cao's army arrived, they cut down all the trees on the shore that were ten miles long and paved with bluestone to build a bank pier about ten miles long, laying the foundation for the upcoming construction of a water village.

In fact, the Cao army's water camp has begun to be built. The Cao army cut down tens of thousands of long trees and sharpened one of them to facilitate insertion into the bottom of the river. The water camp is ten miles long and two miles wide, and can accommodate two thousand warships.

Dozens of small boats were busy on the river surface. Cao's soldiers pushed long trees into the bottom of the water. Cao's soldiers were busy with the sky nervously. As sparse wooden stakes appeared on the water surface, the outline of the water village had gradually formed.

However, before the Cao army's warship arrived, the water camp was empty and there was no obstacle. Liu Jing's fleet sailed into the water camp without any obstacles and gradually approached the shore.

On the shore, Zhang Liao had mobilized 10,000 crossbowmen and stood densely on the shore, placing arrows, and watched the approach of twenty small Jiangxia warships with caution.

But Liu Jing's ship did not enter the range of the bow and arrow. He stopped a dozen steps away. Dozens of soldiers shouted in unison: "Liu Jingzhou invites Prime Minister Cao to see you."

Soon, a large group of cavalry appeared on the shore surrounded by a Qingluo umbrella. The cavalry dodged to both sides, revealing Cao Cao in purple robe. Liu Jing clasped his fists and laughed loudly, "Prime Minister Cao, are you safe?"

Cao Cao turned around and said to Xiahou Yuan: "Please come forward and talk."

Xiahou Yuan shouted loudly: "Master Liuzhou, Prime Minister, please come forward and talk."

When Liu Jing heard this, he ordered to his left and right: "Go ahead twenty steps forward."

The soldiers on both sides were shocked, and even Gan Ning couldn't help but persuade: "The governor of the state, Cao Cao is a cunning person, so it's dangerous."

Liu Jing smiled slightly, "It might be fine. If he shoots me, he will not be Cao Cao."

The left and right had no choice but to rock the boat forward and stop twenty steps away. Liu Jing clasped his fists and smiled again: "After farewell to the Han River, the Prime Minister can be safe."

At this time, all the Cao army soldiers on the shore admired Liu Jing's courage. Under the threat of tens of thousands of crossbow troops, Liu Jing dared to approach twenty steps. This kind of courage is not something ordinary people can possess. No wonder Cheng wanted to see him differently, and all the soldiers looked at their prime minister.

Cao Cao stroked his long beard lightly, squinted his eyes and nodded, and secretly admired him in his heart. He also laughed loudly: "Mr. Jing, I really don't want to be an enemy of you. You offer conditions. As long as you are willing to submit to the court, I can agree to you any conditions."

Liu Jing laughed, "Is the Prime Minister serious about this? I will agree to any conditions."

The soldiers were all shocked. How could the Prime Minister say so much? He had already proposed the King of Xiangyang last time. If he went up, he could only ascend the throne as emperor. What if Liu Jing really proposed to ascend the throne as emperor

Unexpectedly, Cao Cao said lightly: "Anyway it is about you, I can agree. If you are dissatisfied with the position of King Xiangyang, it is not impossible to let you ascend to the Nine Cauldrons. You are originally a direct royal family. If you have this intention, I am willing to persuade God to abdicate and support you as the new emperor. We will work together to revive the Han Dynasty."

There was a silence on the shore, and all the soldiers didn't even dare to show their vigor. This unprecedented condition shocked everyone incredibly.

Liu Jing sneered in his heart. His foundation was in Jingzhou, so he asked him to give up his foundation and go to Xuchang, but he was just another Liu Xie.

Liu Jing just bowed slightly and said, "The Prime Minister is joking. I am just a younger generation. How can I afford to be so valued by the Prime Minister?"

Cao Cao looked at him and said slowly: "You can afford it."

Liu Jing felt a little moved. He knew that being Cao Cao was able to say this was not a joke. He actually recruited him as the emperor, which only shows that Cao Cao really values ​​him very much.

Liu Jing was silent for a moment and laughed, "The Prime Minister spent half his life, and there were countless loyal ministers and close friends around him, but no strong enemy. Wouldn't it be very lonely? Liu Jing is not talented and is willing to be the prime minister's first strong enemy in his life. Ten years later, if I, Liu Jing, die, ask the Prime Minister to erect a monument for me. If the Prime Minister dies, I, Liu Jing, are willing to build a temple for the Prime Minister."

Cao Cao stared at him for a long time and suddenly laughed, "A good thing about life, it is enough to be able to win a strong enemy for life. You go ten years later, I will personally engrave the inscription for Gong Jing."

"The Prime Minister was wrong"

Liu Jing shook his head, smiled at Cao Cao and said, "It should be me who built the temple for the Prime Minister myself."

He waved his hand and said, "Let's go."

The fleet turned around and drove out of Cao Jun Water Village and headed towards the south bank. Cao Cao looked at Liu Jing's back and saw him shuddering. He had never felt a hint of fear like he was today.

"Return to Account"

...........

At noon the next day, a bell suddenly came from the distant East Viewing Tower. The bell sounded dull and long, and it sounded together. Liu Jing was reviewing the military newspaper sent by Jia Xu in the tent. He heard the bell and stood up and walked out of the tent.

At this time, a personal soldier ran to report, "Qi Bingzhou Governor, Jiangdong's fleet is here."

Liu Jing was overjoyed. Last night, the wind turned to the east wind, and he knew that the Jiangdong warship was about to arrive.

Sure enough, a quarter of an hour later, the vast Jiangdong fleet appeared on the river not far from the east, and there was nowhere to be seen. A small Jiangxia boat had already met him and guided the Jiangdong warship toward the water camp.

Liu Jing also boarded a Thousand Stone Warship and went out to greet him. When his warship and Jiangdong warship slowly intersected, Zhou Yu stood on the ship opposite and bowed to him.

The two ships finally got closer. Zhou Yu walked onto Liu Jing's big ship with a smile, bowed and bowed deeply to Liu Jing, and said sincerely: "The Jiangdong Army has been preparing for this battle for a year. I know that the Jiangxia Army has also prepared for a long time. I hope the heaven will live up to us."

Liu Jing patted his shoulder and smiled and said, "I have been waiting for Gongjin for a long time. Please follow me to the big tent and let's talk about military information."

"This is what I expect. I have many questions in my mind, hoping to get the answer from the provincial governor."

The two looked at each other and laughed. Zhou Yu then ordered the Jiangdong warship to enter the water camp, and he took Liu Jing's ship to the camp on the shore.

The two entered the central army's tent. The personal soldiers were ready to carry a wooden frame and hung a detailed map of Jiangxia. Pin, Gan Ning, Wei Yan and Liu Hu were standing in front of the map and whispering.

Seeing that Jia Xu was not here, Liu Jing immediately ordered a personal soldier to "go and invite Mr. Jia."

Soon, Jia Xu hurried into the big tent and bowed and said with a smile: "I'm late."

Jia Xu came from Wuchang early this morning. He ran all night and was resting in the tent. He heard that the Jiangdong Army had arrived, so he rushed over.

At this time, the deputy governor of the Jiangdong Army, Lu Su, generals Huang Gai, Shi Ci, Lu Meng and chief clerk Kan Ze also walked into the tent one after another. When everyone saw the greeting, they all humbly gave up their seats.

"I wonder if the state of Cao's army is now, can the provincial governor introduce it?" Zhou Yu spoke first and opened up today's topic.

Liu Jing walked to the map and pointed to the Wulin of Chibi, "Cao army walked through Huarong Road and passed through Yunmengze. At present, 200,000 main forces have arrived on the other side to camp. In addition, several warships from Fancheng also entered Yunmengze through Hanshui and Xiashui and rushed towards Wulin of Chibi."

Liu Jing pointed to Puqi County again and said to everyone: "In addition, 20,000 Cao troops have crossed the river from Puqi and entered the hinterland of Jiangxia. It is obvious that they want to attack our rear."

"The state governor knows so well, there should be a solution to it," Lu Su couldn't help asking.

Liu Jing smiled slightly, "Don't worry, I have ordered Huang Zhong to lead 10,000 troops to fight Cao's army. In my territory, Cao's army will not have any good results."

At this time, Zhou Yu asked again: "Why don't the Zhou Mu intercept the warships that Cao's army came from Jiangling?"

This is a very concerning issue for Jiang Dongjun, and everyone's eyes looked at Liu Jing.

Liu Jing smiled faintly, "Why can Cao Cao's 200,000 troops be annihilated? Without a good navy, what's the use of even if he has 10,000 warships?"

Zhou Yu, Lu Su, Huang Gai and others looked at each other, and then they realized that Liu Jing was not as simple as defeating Cao's army, but wanted to wipe out more than 200,000 Cao's army.

"good"

Shi Ci cheered, "A real man should have such courage, so let the battle of Chibi become the tomb to bury Cao's army."

Zhou Yu also understood Liu Jing's profound meaning. If Cao's army could be wiped out completely, it would inevitably greatly weaken Cao Cao's strength, which would be conducive to Liu Jing's development of power to the north. Wu Hou was also prepared to expand to Hefei and Guangling north, which would also be beneficial to Jiangdong.

Thinking of this, Zhou Yu also smiled and said, "I fully support the decision of the provincial governor."
