The Yangtze River was an important mother river that nurtured the Chinese civilization. In the past few days, it could be said that the flames of war had been scattered.
A few days ago, a 100,000 strong army appeared at the mouth of the Yangtze River. Today, two fleets once again set up their battle formation on the Yangtze River.
"Huo Jun, are you crazy?" On the flagship of the Jingzhou Navy, there were over a hundred warships. Two people who looked like commanders were arguing. The young man who was shouting was none other than one of Zhuge Liang's two right-hand men, Li Yan, Li Fangzheng.
The person who was being yelled at was the other Huo Jun and Huo Zhongmiao. Both of them were picked out by Zhuge Liang. It could be said that Zhuge Liang was their Talent Scout. They were also willing to listen to Zhuge Liang's orders because only Zhuge Liang could use them and dared to use them. He knew their strengths and weaknesses, even more than the two of them knew themselves.
Usually, Li Yan was the one who thought and spoke more because he was not willing to be a deputy. He also wanted to be like Zhuge Liang. On the other hand, Huo Jun was a taciturn person who could not say anything. He would do whatever Zhuge Liang said. But today, their roles were completely reversed.
"I am not crazy!" Huo Jun did not care about Li Yan's angry glare. Instead, he was very calm.
"Then do you know what you are doing?" Li Yan pointed at the war drums that were already being beaten and roared at Huo Jun with his eyes wide open.
"I know! I am just beating the drums and marching! "Huo Jun said casually. But it almost angered Li Yan to death.
"You are playing with fire. Let me tell you, Huo Jun. If there is a mistake, you will ruin the military advisor's good intentions. I want to see how you will explain it to the military advisor!" Li Yan heard Huo Jun's nonchalant expression and became even angrier.
"I, Huo Jun, will naturally explain it to the military advisor. Fangzheng, you don't have to explain it to me! I, Huo Jun, will take responsibility for what I did. Pass down my order to continue beating the drums! "Huo Jun looked at the Yangzhou Navy's camp with sparkling eyes.
"Sigh!" Li Yan angrily stamped his feet. Military Counselor's plan was almost complete. All that was left was to provide timely help. He thought that he would be heavily rewarded. Who would have thought that such an ignorant man would appear? Perhaps Military Counselor's plan would be ruined by this ignorant man.
Li Yan was not in a good position to give new orders. This was because before the military advisor left, he had Huo Jun as the leader and Li Yan as the assistant. Zhuge Liang was afraid that Li Yan was smart enough to make his own decisions. On the other hand, Huo Jun was a person who only listened to orders and did not ask about the origin.
But today, the two of them seemed to have completely reversed. Li Yan wanted to carry out the order immediately, but Huo Jun was lukewarm. Now, he was about to ruin the military advisor's plan.
Once there was a misunderstanding with the Yangzhou Navy, Li Yan and Huo Jun would have to bear the consequences.
Li Yan knew that he couldn't dissuade Huo Jun. He could only stomp his feet and enter the cabin. Out of sight, out of mind.
Did Huo Jun know what he was doing? Of course, he knew that Military Counselor's last order was for him to bring the Xiakou Jiangxia Navy to the Lujiang Navy camp and wait for orders.
However, this was the first time that Huo Jun disobeyed Military Counselor's order. This was because he was very unhappy and dissatisfied.
Why would the military counselor sacrifice so much for the King of Shu, whom he had never met before? He even got himself involved in the plan. That was a narrow escape. Moreover, this was not the first time. The last time the military counselor was almost ready to take the risk out of desperation. Therefore, Huo Jun was not convinced. He wanted to see what kind of person could make the military counselor so loyal to him.
Huo Jun felt even more resentment. He wanted to seek justice for the military counselor.
"Hmph, are the Yangzhou Navy all cowards?" Under Huo Jun's order, the Jiangxia Navy's war drums were very loud. However, there was still no movement in the Yangzhou Navy camp. "Military Counselor, are you interested in these people?" The corner of Huo Jun's mouth was filled with disdain. Seeing soldiers was like seeing people. What kind of general would naturally lead what kind of soldiers. And what kind of lord would lead the same kind of generals. That was why people said that a lion would always command a pride of lions and not a flock of sheep.
"General, look, the Yangzhou Navy's camp is open!" Huo Jun's personal guard pointed at the slowly opening gate of the Yangzhou Navy's camp.
"Hm?" Huo Jun raised his head and looked at the gate of the Yangzhou Navy. The gate slowly opened.
"What are those warships?" Jiangxia's soldiers looked at the Yangzhou Navy's warships slowly leaving the Yangzhou Navy's camp and couldn't help but be dumbfounded. This was because a total of six warships came out, but these six warships were riddled with injuries. Not a single one of them was in good condition. There were even two warships that had been hit by the enemy's ballistae. These were the remnants of a huge battle.
"General, are they trying to escape?" Huo Jun's deputy interjected. Looking at the six warships of the Yangzhou Navy, they should be able to move. The Yangzhou Navy had just experienced a great battle. Not only were the warships damaged, but the people were also physically and mentally exhausted. There were also many injured people.
After the Yangzhou Navy's warships left the Yangzhou Navy camp, they sailed in the opposite direction. The Jing Zhou Navy came from upstream, Xiakou. The Yangzhou Navy was in the opposite direction. It looked like they were trying to escape.
"Abandoning the comrades who fought with them and left?" Huo Jun looked at the Yangzhou Navy's warships and couldn't help but sneer. "So the Yangzhou Navy is only so-so. Military Counselor, oh Military Counselor, why do you want to sacrifice yourself for these vile people?" Huo Jun's disdain deepened.
"The Yangzhou Navy had just experienced a huge battle. What's wrong with avoiding the battle to protect their main force? Why do they have to be like you, Huo Jun? "Li Yan still didn't feel at ease and walked out to mock Huo Jun.
"Hmph? Avoiding the battle to protect their main force? I, Huo Jun, don't understand, but I know that they are abandoning their comrades. They are greedy for life and afraid of death! It is seen as unrighteous. Abandoning the Navy camp is not a responsibility to defend the land. This is disloyalty. Such a disloyal and unrighteous army … "Huo Jun pointed at the Yangzhou Navy and started to talk nonsense. Suddenly, the deputy shouted." General, look, look. They are not running away! Instead, it looks like they are attacking us. "
"What?" Huo Jun turned around and looked at the Yangzhou Navy's warships in front of him. He saw that after the Yangzhou Navy's warships reached a certain point in the water, they turned around and didn't go downstream. Instead, they went towards the Jiangxia Navy.
One must know that the Jiangxia Navy had over a hundred warships. The Yangzhou Navy only had six warships and all of them were injured.
