Days pass by in my hands day by day, like the quicksand in my hand. Time comes in a blink of an eye.

It is the autumnal equinox in the middle of August.

The water moistens the mountains and leaves are like clouds, and the forests are dyed with flowers on the stones. The late autumn wind speaks parting, and the love is deep and prosperous.

The clear rain cleanses the dust, and the sudden wind and clouds roll away the layers of dryness and heat, sprinkle a trace of coolness, moistening the heart, and instantly the water is full of green onions. The trees are thick and light, the leaves are sparse yellow, the flowers bloom and fallen, and the autumn Feng Shui is cool.

Cao Chong stood in Chongyuan Hall, and there was already the breath of autumn around him.

The most obvious feeling is that it is naturally much colder. Xu Du is in the north. The autumnal equinox in the north is already a little cold. In addition, the weather this year is particularly cold. In the early morning, you can see a few white frost by the extremely yellow grass.

The willow branches also lost all their tender greens, leaving only dry branches. They swayed weakly with the autumn wind. Further away, the maple leaves had already withered yellow, and fell leaves were scattered among the shade, instantly floating the aisle with golden colors.

Autumn is the fall of leaves and is also the season of harvest.

The millet fields around Xudu are already golden, waiting for the harvest of the farmers, but Cao Chong's eyes are not on Xudu.

His eyes were in the south.

There is Jingzhou!

After nearly a month of confrontation in Jingzhou, the situation has changed drastically.

Among the four counties in Jingnan, Liu Bei defeated Li Dian in Censhan, causing Li Dian's 30,000 troops to lose to Censhan. In the end, the only ones who escaped were the marching Sima Xiahou Jie and a few cavalrymen.

Cao's army suffered heavy losses. Cao Cao was furious and naturally sent more people to come, but he was stubbornly blocked by Liu Bei in the Censhan area.

Liu Bei seemed unwilling to let Cao's army arrive in Wuling County.

In Jiangxia County, Zhang Liao, who is stationed in Xiakou, the upper reaches of the Yangtze River, still trains troops every day. He originally wanted to attack Xiakou.

Unfortunately, Huang Gai is not an ordinary person. Xiakou has an orderly defense. In addition, the water in summer is vast. If you cross the river rashly, you may be ambushed by Huang Gai. For safety reasons, Zhang Liao did not attack rashly, but trained troops in Xiakou.

Not long after, Zhou Yu arrived at Xiakou with 50,000 troops. Zhou Yu divided the camp into three and stationed on the bank of the Yangtze River. With a fixed eye, you can see the situation of the Cao army camp opposite.

The tens of thousands of troops brought by Zhou Yu were very complicated, so it was naturally not possible to take them out and fight them. Therefore, he did not have a light battle and was also practicing to start a war in the camp.

Of course, everyone knows how long this calm cannot last.

Because the autumnal equinox has arrived, the autumn rain has continued, but the melting snow in the birthplace of the Yangtze River has decreased a lot, which has lowered the water level of the Yangtze River. The roaring giant of the Yangtze River has also begun to remain silent. The waves of the past have become the ancient wells that are now without waves, with only waves of undercurrents rolling under the long river surface.

Just like the current situation.

The shallows of the Yangtze River have already exposed one-third of the beach, and this is only on the autumnal equinox.

Zhou Yu's face was grim and knew that the war might start again in the near future!

Step by step ~

The sound of horse hooves continued, Cao Ren was wearing a mysterious armor and holding a ferocious spear in his hand. At this moment, he had already arrived in the Censhan area.

Mountain Cen is not high and is considered a short mountain, but even this short mountain has many changes, causing the burial of tens of thousands of Cao Jun'erlang to be here.

Gua—gua—gua—gua

There were a little more crows in the sky, and there seemed to be countless soldiers hidden among the layers of woods.

During the autumnal equinox, leaves fall constantly, but the leaves of the four counties in Jingnan have not yet fallen, so they look a little gloomy under the dark sky.

In the past few days, Cao Ren and Liu Bei have been against each other several times, and they have won the best. Of course, the winners are naturally the ones themselves.

Liu Bei wanted to block 50,000 troops in Censhan without paying some price. How could he keep so many people outside Wuling County?

But today seems a little different.

The forest is a bit noisy and quiet. In the forest, you can still see a few flying birds.

Could it be that Liu Bei doesn’t want to stop him?

Cao Ren waved his hand and walked out at the forefront of the army. They were holding a ring-headed knife in their hands and a bag on their backs. Suddenly, they walked into the jungle with a sound.

twitter....

Birds flew. After half an hour, these people were covered with grass chips and had ring-headed swords on their hands, but the bag on their backs disappeared. Although they looked embarrassed, they did not feel resentful on their faces. They immediately returned to their own team.

At the same time, there seemed to be a sound of thunder in the distant mountains.

Boom boom boom boom ~

The flames flew, and loud noises kept rolling in the mountains and forests, with thick black smoke. The black smoke was so high that even people over ten miles away could see clearly.

Haha ~

Roar roar roar ~

The beast fled, and the fires arose on Cen Mountain.

Under such a flame, no one can ambush himself.

Cao Ren smiled on his face. If it weren't for the lack of gunpowder reserves before, I would have used this trick, but now I'd use it, there would be nothing wrong with it.

Big ear thief, big ear thief, just wait for me!

Cao Ren showed a cold smile on his face. With a wave of his hand, the army slowly and orderly moved between the thick smoke on both sides.

In Wuling City, Liu Bei was dressed in Confucian clothes and was still upright, but he seemed to have fought with Cao Ren for a few days and nights. His spirit seemed a little depressed, but his eyes were shining.

Because gunpowder has been obtained.

Everyone knows that Liu Bei is a person who is good at tolerance, but when Guan Feng brought the gunpowder formula to him, Liu Bei was like a child, laughing and dancing.

When you get the gunpowder, I see how you are enemies with me!

Liu Bei even gave Guan Feng a thousand troops and gave her the title of front teeth.

This is unimaginable for a woman, but no one will object to it.

Because gunpowder is really important, with this thing, Liu Bei and even the soldiers of the entire army had the courage to become enemies with Cao's army.

Liu Bei looked up and looked at the thick smoke in the distance, knowing that Cao Ren's troops were already approaching Wuling City.

Before gunpowder, if Cao's army approached Wuling City, Liu Bei would definitely abandon the city and flee, but it seems different now.

He already has gunpowder.

Liu Bei's eyes flashed, and his mouth began to become dry.

He was already eager to know the expression when Cao Cao found out that he had a gunpowder formula. Unfortunately, the gunpowder formula was obtained from the General Manager, not from Cao Chong. Otherwise, Liu Bei could have Cao Cao poisoned the tiger.

That's right, after returning to Wuling City, Guan Feng did not tell Liu Bei all the truth, but said that the gunpowder was tied to the generals to serve as prison. Liu Bei also did some detailed work in Xudu. After understanding some of the situation, he knew that Guan Feng was telling the truth.

As for why Guan Feng didn't tell the truth, maybe she couldn't even tell the reason herself.

Of course, even if Guan Feng deceived herself, it would no longer matter.
