The surging Changjiang River continued and did not stop.

Liu Bei's army went down the river and when they went past the Han River mouth, Zhuge Liang suggested they send wars.h.i.+ps and scout to prevent the enemy from setting an ambush in the Han River.

Liu Bei nodded and allowed it, but he only gave them half a day. In the end, they obtained no rewards. With that, the army continued to move down the river and headed toward Ruxi Town.

Just as they pa.s.sed the Changjiang mouth, at an inconspicuous corner, a beast with a green head popped out and did a roll before disappearing in the water.

The green beast traveled up the river for half a day before coming to the upstream portion of the river. At this place, the 2nd unit was quietly waiting.

Splas.h.!.+

The beast jumped out of the river and landed on top of the flags.h.i.+p.

A young man was standing on the deck. When he saw the giant beast, he smiled and touched its head, asking, “They just went over?"

The giant beast could actually understand his words and nodded.

"Good, go play!" The young man once again patted its head.

Nian!

The giant beast leaped and once again disappeared into the vast river.

The young man turned around and looked at the navy major, “You heard that?"

"Monarch, do not worry. With our speed, we can move to the next ambush point in time if we move out now." The major was solemn but rather excited.

The young man nodded, “Follow the plan!"

"Yes Monarch!"

After giving his instructions, the young man moved to the side of the deck where a flying device was parked.

This young man was naturally Ouyang Shuo.

With a little stalking, the location and movements of the Liu Bei Navy had completely fallen under their control.

The ambush plan that Jia Xu had made needed extreme precise. They needed to know the exact time they pa.s.sed the river mouth and also needed to inform the Red Cliff Navy in time so that they could work together.

If one side performed badly, all their efforts would be ruined.

The secret weapon that Jia Xu mentioned was the flying device that had teleported over with the voyage squadron.

Ouyang Shuo pushed the purple magnetic ohlite around his neck into the caved in portion of the flying device. The mysterious patterns suddenly lit up like an awakened beast.

The flying device suddenly rose and disappeared into the sky.

Ouyang Shuo was driving the device down the river through the river mouth and down toward Red Cliff. In less than an hour, he saw Liu Bei's army traveling on the river surface.

"Caught you!"

Ouyang Shuo smiled and drove the flying device away from Changjiang and toward the Yunmeng River on the west side; he especially made a big circle before entering Red Cliff.

Two hours later, the flying device landed on Dragon Head.

"Monarch!"

When he received the news, Zheng He came out to welcome his Lord.

"The target has appeared, get ready!" Ouyang Shuo was extremely direct.

"Understood!"

Zheng He immediately ordered the army to leave Red Cliff.

With that, the Shanhai City Army had locked them in Changjiang from both the front and the back.

Morning, 19th day of the battle map.

On the Liu Bei flags.h.i.+p deck, Zhuge Liang stood in the wind, pointing at the river and smiling, “Lord, not far from here is Ruxi Lake."

"Great!" Since they did not face any resistance on the way here, Liu Bei's mood was extremely good. As long as the army was able to disembark smoothly, they would have largely succeeded.

At this very moment, the alarm sounded.

When Liu Bei heard the sound, his heart shook, “What happened?"

"Lord, the enemy s.h.i.+ps behind us have caught up!" The Personal Guard stammered as he spoke.

"What?"

When he heard this news, Liu Bei immediately turned around, only to see a ma.s.sive squadron charging over. An eye-catching golden dragon flag hung from the wars.h.i.+p.

"It's the Shanhai City Squadron!"

From the side, Chun Shenjun solemnly exclaimed.

"Why did this happen!"

Liu Bei's face was ashen white; he regretted not listening to the suggestion of patrolling the area more carefully.

"Advisor, what should we do now?" Liu Bei asked Zhuge Liang.

Zhuge Liang was calm, “Lord, please calm down. Their forces are not many and should be their branch squad. The best method is to send some sailors to drag them down and to rush to Ruxi Town to disembark. We have no chance at all if we fight on the river."

"Advisor is correct!" Liu Bei calmed himself down.

Liu Bei had totally no hopes of his navy winning. As such, when he heard Zhuge Liang's words, he immediately ordered the navy to break away from the main force and take charge of dragging down the enemy.

The main force would charge to Ruxi Town.

As long as they reach there, they would definitely win with their ma.s.sive army.

"Qiyue Wuyi, just you wait!" Liu Bei's hatred for this player increased.

At this moment of life and death moment, Liu Bei's army was like an arrow leaving the bowstring, charging forward.

At the same time, the navy squadron got ready to intercept the Shanhai City Squadron.

"Fire the cannons!"

The Shanhai City Squadron did not hesitate and used their special move straight away.

Hong! Hong! Hong!

On the river surface, cannon explosions rang out once more.

The navy squadron that Cao Cao had abandoned was a live target. In front of the strong Shanhai City Navy, they had no way to return fire.

In less than half an hour, all of them fell. Unfortunately, a large amount of broken wreckage blocked the Changjiang River, so the Shanhai City Squadron had no choice but to stop to clear it.

"d.a.m.n it!"

The major's face was a little ugly.

If he spoiled the Monarch's plan because of this matter, he would probably be beheaded.

"Quick, open up a path!"

As the wreckages spanned a large area, removing it was not an easy matter.

The anxious major could only watch on as the enemy disappeared from his field of sight.

Liu Bei army, onboard the flags.h.i.+p.

Listening to the cannon sounds from behind made both Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang exceedingly solemn. They were shocked to see that their navy did not even stand a chance.

Thinking of which, it seemed like Chun Shenjun was right.

Liu Bei instantly started to regret his decision to rashly move the army.

"Luckily we escaped that!"

Not far from them, Ruxi Town was in sight.

Just when they thought they had survived, an army slowly proceeded toward them from the water region in front.

The hanging golden dragon flag was truly eye-piercing.

"d.a.m.n it, how did this happen!" Despair flashed across Liu Bei's eyes. No matter how he thought about it, he did not understand how they fell into the enemy's trap.

Ruxi Town, which was less than a thousand meters away, seemed so distant.

"Lord, the only way now is to fight to the death," Zhuge Liang said slowly. Trying to disembark now was tantamount to suicide. Under the enemy cannon fire, they stood no chance.

Zhuge Liang totally had no idea how the enemy had pinpointed their location and how the squadrons from both the front and the back had cooperated so flawlessly.

Of course, no matter how amazing he was, he would not have expected the flying device and Little Green to exist.

As they say, if your starting foot was wrong, any route you take would be wrong.

The presence of such a high tech bug was something that Zhuge Liang had no knowledge of.

"Let's fight!"

Liu Bei's eyes focused; his voice a little hoa.r.s.e.

On the river surface, they already had nowhere to go. Liu Bei's eyes turned ice cold, “I want to let them know how strong desperate people are!"

The order to fight to the death spread across the entire army.

"Kill! Kill! Kill!"

All of a sudden, a killing intent that shocked the heavens appeared.

Just at this moment, the Shanhai City Squadron at the back had finally caught up.

They had totally locked up the Liu Bei Army from front and back, and the Liu Bei Army totally could not move.

However, the first to attack was the Liu Bei Army. Zhuge Liang knew that the enemy had cannons, so they totally stood no chance of winning in a ranged war.

The only method was to disregard the sacrifices and charge forward to have a head on close combat fight.

Only then could they have a fighting chance and break out of this situation.

"Kill!"

Numerous wars.h.i.+ps charged at the Shanhai City Squadron.

On Dragon Head, Ouyang Shuo understood what they were trying to do and laughed. Jia Xu was similarly filled with confidence. As a top strategist, how could he have not considered the enemy going all in?

200 Cima Boats suddenly charged in from behind.

Onboard the Cima Boats were a few soldiers. If one looked carefully, they would see that these people were all prisoners. To prevent them from speaking, their tongues were all cut off.

Such a method naturally came from Jia Xu.

Weirdly, the Cima Boats were not driven by anyone, but they charged at the Liu Bei Navy like an arow. The secret lied in the frogmen that were in the water.

This time, the frogmen became the shepherds of all the Cima Boats.

Closely packed Cima Boats came from front and back and charged forward. They filled up the entire river surface till there were no more gaps.

"What's that?"

"Are they crazy? Using such small boats as the vanguard?"

"Kill them; do not let them block the way."

The formation of the Liu Bei Army was in chaos.

Numerous arrows shot at the Cima Boats. The prisoners who were tied up died just like that.

"Haha!"

"Are they here to die?"

After winning this exchange, their morale rose.

Only Zhuge Liang had a serious expression. He did not think that the enemy who had cannons would use such small tactics.

The only logical explanation was that there was something wrong with these boats.

"Use trebuchets and sink the boats. Do not let them get close!" Zhuge Liang ordered.

Liu Bei was shocked and asked, “Do you think that there's something wrong with these boats?"

"Might be!" Zhuge Liang was unsure.

Upon closer inspection, those boats were empty. It did not look like a fire attack.

Just as Zhuge Liang was in doubt, many fire arrows shot out from the Shanhai City Squadron toward the Cima Boats.

Hu!

Instantly, hundreds of Cima Boats burst into flames.
