In the battle room, the discussion was still underway.
Jia Xu smiled, ”Monarch, if you want Liu Bei to strike, Guan Yu is a really good point of attack.”
When Ouyang Shuo heard these words, his eyes lit up.
Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were the god brothers of Liu Bei. He had a close bond with these two. The moment that something happened to Guan Yu, Ouyang Shuo did not believe that Liu Bei could restraint himself.
”Then for the battle tomorrow, you two need to plan it out well.” Ouyang Shuo ordered.
”Do not worry Monarch!”
Zheng He used this chance to introduce the battle plan he had discussed with Jia Xu. After a short while, both of them bid goodbye to prepare for the battle tomorrow.
Yunmeng River.
Just as Ouyang Shuo was ready to destroy Huang Gai, the Zhou Yu Army was only a day away from Jiangling City. The battle that had been festering for such a long time was going to explode, and it would even change the entire Red Cliff situation.
In the end, Jiangling was the true main battlefield of this battle and gathered close to 90 percent of both sides. The results of this battle would determine the end result of this battle map.
When they received the intel, the atmosphere in Jiangling City instantly tensed up.
Cao Cao personally took charge of Jiangling, Cao Ren, Yu Jin, Cao Dun, Wen Pin, and other important generals were all there. The 200 thousand player forces had received the order and had moved into the city.
The entire Jiangling City instantly transformed into a giant barracks, and grain gathered from all around Jingzhou was transported over for the army to consume.
When he received the news of the Lu Su Army falling, Cao Cao's confidence rose, and he was determined to fight with the Sun Liu Alliance Army here.
After a few days of rest and the motivation from the navy victory, the Cao Army morale had risen.
Hence, Cao Cao was really confident about this battle.
...
Within Jiangling City, the player camp.
Within the tent, Caiyun Zinan was delighted, ”Zi Fang is truly a god in predicting things. We followed your plan and Cao Ren really agreed.”
When Zhang Liang heard these words, he smiled and did not speak.
Seeing the Lord being so excited, a look of helplessness appeared in Zhang Liang's eyes.
Too focused on the small things, he looks nothing like a true ruler, Zhang Liang sighed in his heart.
Caiyun Zinan, who was caught up in his elation, did not notice the expression of his advisor, ”This time, I'll make Shanhai Alliance trip and fall.”
13th day of the battle map, Changjiang Red Cliff.
A huge squadron was traveling on the river surface, stretching miles. On the warship, there were massive flags; the first half of the flags was 'Huang' and the other half was 'Guan'.
This was the Alliance Army of Huang Gai and Guan Yu.
Guan Yu followed Liu Bei instructions and led four thousand naval forces as the vanguard. The army had finally caught up to the Huang Gai Army before they reached Red Cliff.
Unfortunately, because of the conflict from before, Huang Gai was not delighted with Guan Yu's arrival.
Guan Yu was also an arrogant person and had not wanted to come. If it was not for Liu Bei forcing him, he would not have come out. Seeing Huang Gai's attitude, Guan Yu was all the more furious.
The army did not even merge together with the Huang Gai Army and just traveled behind.
Between the two armies, there were a few kilometers of space.
Like what the Cima Boats had investigated, Huang Gai did not know what had happened to Red Cliff. After reaching the water path in front of Red Cliff, the army did not stop and continued forward.
Along the way, they did not see a single warship.
This did not surprise Huang Gai.
The ambush tactic designed by the Yanhuang Alliance was obviously one that Huang Gai and Lu Su knew about. Hence, seeing that Wulin Fortress was still fine, he did not suspect anything.
He did not even face a single warship along the way.
With that, this was a small part of the plan; the goal was to not raise the suspicion of the Cao Cao Army.
After entering Red Cliff, Huang Gai stood on deck and smiled, ”I've finally reached Red Cliff! Sound the drums and tell the players that we are here to help. Ask them to open the gates of the fortress.”
”Yes general!”
During the entire process, only Gong Chengshi, who stood beside Huang Gai, had a weird expression.
Sometimes, too normal was not normal.
After spending so much time with Ouyang Shuo, Gong Chengshi understood his big brother's personality. Ouyang Shuo liked to plan out the battles and never fought battles he had no confidence in.
Not seeing the Shanhai City Squadron already shocked Gong Chengshi. When he saw Red Cliff, the uneasiness in his heart intensified.
Only through various considerations did Gong Chengshi not tell his worries to Huang Gai.
When the fortress gates opened and a large number of warships charged out of Wulin and Red Cliff, they finally realized that they had fallen into a trap.
Although all the high level warships in China came from the Shanhai City shipyard and looked the same, Gong Chengshi had a huge feeling that it was the Shanhai City Squadron in front of them.
The squadrons on both sides gathered into their formations. Quickly, they left the Alliance Army without the room to move.
