Early the next morning, Yan and Diao Chan's maid Taohong and Lu'er entered the study room and prepared to wake up their mistress. However, when they arrived behind the screen, a scene of red face and heartbeat came into view. The dress and bellyband were thrown all over the ground, while Yan and Diao Chan were sleeping heavily, and they didn't even realize that the spring light was leaking. The two maids had red cheeks and their hearts were pounding, and they didn't know what to do for a moment.

When Ailang was still sleeping happily with Cao Ying on the bed, Wan'er blushed and came outside the tent of the bed, and said in a trembling voice: "Lord, lord, lord..."

Ailang woke up and saw Cao Ying in her arms still sleeping heavily, with a faint blush remaining on her face. Her teeth bit her lower lip and seemed to be in a coquettish and angry look in her dream. Ailang couldn't help but feel infinite tenderness in her heart, lowered her head and kissed her forehead.

"Master..." Wan'er shouted again.

Ailang carefully removed Cao Ying from her body, took off her body, covered her with a quilt, and got out of the tent and got off the bed. Wan'er's face turned red immediately, and she turned around in a hurry, and even forgot the purpose of coming here. Ailang put down the tent, stood up, put on her clothes, walked to Wan'er, and asked in a low voice, "What's the matter?" Wan'er heard Ailang's voice sounding in her ears, and smelled his manly breath, and immediately became confused, almost without knowing where she was. It was not until Ailang called her several times that she realized, remembered the serious matter, and hurriedly said, "Mr. Jia Xu is here, waiting in the study, saying that there is an emergency military situation to report to his lord!"

Ailang said oh and whispered: "Xiaoying was exhausted last night. Don't quarrel with her, let her continue to sleep." Wan'er nodded with her beautiful face.

Ailang went downstairs and quickly came to the study. Jia Xu, who was waiting for him in the study, saw Ailang coming in and immediately stepped forward to pay homage to him: "Lord."

Ailang said, and said angrily, "I said Lao Jia, what is the most amazing thing that makes you come to disturb me so early in the morning?"

Jia Xu smiled and said, "It's indeed a big deal! But it has nothing to do with us for the time being. I just received a report from Xuchang that Yuan Shao is dead, Cao Cao occupied Jizhou, and Yuan's army was defeated again!"

Ai Lang was shocked and asked quickly, "Is Yuan Shao dead?"

Jia Xu nodded and said, "Yuan Shao respected himself very much, but was defeated by the eunuchs he looked down upon. Seeing that even the foundation that he had worked hard to build over the years was about to be snatched away by Cao Cao, he was so angry that he finally died!" Ai Lang asked in surprise: "Is he so angry?" "According to the report, it should be." Ai Lang smiled and said, "Why are you fighting for the world with just this little bit of stomach? You're not trying to bother yourself!" Then he asked, "Is the Yuan family completely collapsed? Could it be that my father-in-law has taken over Yuan Shao's territory?"

Jia Xu said: "That's not. Yuan Shao's three sons cooperated with each other and were resisting with all their strength. After Cao Cao occupied Jizhou, he fought with the three Yuans several times. Although they all had the upper hand, they were unable to form a destructive force. I guess it would take less than a year and a half or even one or two years to Cao Cao, and it would be difficult for Cao Cao to completely eliminate Yuan Shao's forces and completely occupy the northern states!" Ai Lang smiled and said, "That's good! We have time to do our work!" Jia Xu clasped his fists and said, "My wise!"

In Jizhou, Cao Cao led his army into the prosperous city of Jizhou. Suddenly, he saw Xu You drunk on the city gate tower and shouted loudly: "Cao Aman, if it weren't for me Xu You, you would have entered this Jizhou!" Cao Cao laughed and said loudly: "Yes! Your Xu Ziyuan is very good at making great contributions. We all thanks to you to defeat Yuan Shao and enter Jizhou. Cao is so grateful to your great kindness and virtue!" Xu You laughed proudly and shouted: "It's good that you know!"

Cao Cao smiled and rode his horse into the city. Cao Cao didn't care about Xu You's rude behavior, but it made the civil servants and military generals around Cao Cao so angry that they were filled with smoke. Especially Xu Chu, he stared at Xu You who was drinking happily on the city gate tower, and he wanted to tear him apart to relieve his hatred!

Accompanied by everyone, Cao Cao entered Yuan Shao's mansion. He saw that the mansion in front of him was large in scale, the pavilions and corridors were magnificent, just like a heavenly palace. He couldn't help but laugh and scold: "Yuan Benchu ​​really knows how to enjoy it. He is afraid he is not treating himself as the emperor!" Everyone laughed.

At this time, Xun You hurried to Cao Cao and bowed: "Prime Minister!"

Cao Cao asked, "How about you go and count the money and grain? How much money and grain have you got in total?"

Xun You said with anger: "I only got more than a thousand taels of silver and money, and only a few hundred dans of food and grass."

Cao Cao was shocked and shouted, "Did I hear it wrong? The silver and money are only more than a thousand taels? The food and grass are only hundreds of burrows? How is this possible?"

"It's that Lu, because of the Prime Minister's good son-in-law Lu Bu. He took advantage of the opportunity of our war with Yuan Shao and led the cavalry to raid Jizhou, and transported the countless money that Yuan Shao had stockpiled in Jizhou back to his Xuzhou! He didn't leave the food and grass, so he actually distributed the food and grass to the people of Jizhou. Now Jizhou has a lot of grain, but they are all in the hands of the people, and the people are very grateful to him!..."

Cao Cao blinked his eyes, unable to speak for a moment, and only felt that he was in a silence. He came back to his senses, laughed, and cursed: "It's indeed my good son-in-law! Great! Great!" Then he cursed: "Sooner or later, I will teach this abominable guy who specializes in taking advantage of me!"

Aqiu!! Ailang sneezes a big time. At this time, Ailang was heading to Guangling, preparing to see the training of the navy. Ailang touched his nose and smiled, "Mom, I don't know who is thinking of me!"

Ailang and his group came to Guangling, and Xu Huang and Hao Meng went out of the city to greet him. Ailang said, "I came to see the navy, so I won't go into the city, just go to the navy camp." The two generals agreed, and then led Ailang and his group around the city to the edge of the Yangtze River not far from the city. A large water village immediately came into view. Half of the huge water village was on the land and half on the water surface, with clear layers, rigorous rules, and extraordinary scenes, which was much better than Ailang expected. Ailang couldn't help but praise: "Okay! I didn't expect that Song Xian and Hou Cheng did a good job!"

When Song Xianhou Cheng heard that the general was coming to inspect, he quickly led his army out to welcome him, and welcomed Ailang and others into the tent.

Ai Lang sat down on the upper head, and the generals were on both sides. Song Xian Houcheng, as the master here, stood on the right head, and although Dian Wei and Xuhuang and others had a higher status, they were considered guest generals after all, so they stood on the left head.

Ailang praised: "You two are okay! This water village is so decent!"

The two generals couldn't help but feel happy. Song Xian clasped his fists and said, "I dare not hide it from the general. In fact, this is all taught by Mr. Jia Xu!"

Ailang was quite surprised, "Old Jia?"

Song Xian said: "Mr. Jia Xu was worried that we were not good at water battles and delayed major events, so he specially compiled a book called "Water War Strategy". The last general and Hou Cheng studied it last night, and he already had a lot of experience!"

Ailang smiled and said, "So that's the case!" Then he touched his chin and said, "I don't even know that Lao Jia actually knows how to fight in the water!" He glanced at the two generals and praised, "You two are also very good, they actually got out in such a short time! OK!" The two were very happy.

Ailang stood up and said, "There is no point in chatting here! You two will take me to see the navy!"

The two generals hurriedly hugged Ying Nuo and led Ailang and his group out of the big tent. As soon as the big tent was out, Song Xian immediately asked the messenger to order all the officers and soldiers to board the ship and wait for the order. The messenger Ying Nuo said and left in a hurry. Song Xian Hou Cheng led Ailang and his group to board the flagship. The flagship slowly started and drove in the water camp. At this time, all the navy officers and soldiers stood neatly on their respective warships. Whenever the flagship passed, they would shout, "The General is mighty! The General is mighty!" Ailang smiled and felt very satisfied. Song Xian and Hou Cheng introduced the various warships of the navy next to him.

The largest one is called a tower ship. The bow of this kind of warship is wide and high, with three layers of tail overlapping, which looks like a building from a distance, so it is called a tower ship. Because the boat is wide, it can place heavy equipment such as a catapult lathe crossbow, so it is the main force of water battles and long-range attacks. Because of its large hull, it can attack enemy ships from a high position during close combat. The so-called good at attacking both far and near battles is good. It is an all-around main warship that can be used for long-range attacks and close attacks. Due to the complex structure of the building ship, it is generally not a large number, but it is definitely the main force in the middle of the water battle. Its number often reflects the overall strength of a navy army. Ailang's navy has just been formed. Although it has obtained huge financial support from Yuan Shao, only six have been built so far. The six tower ships lined up like a tall city wall, and the scene is spectacular.

The second type is called a fighting ship, which is smaller than a tower ship, with female walls around the side of the ship, and shooting holes are set on the female walls. It is a warship that uses crossbows to provide firepower support to its own fleet at mid-to-late distance. The third type is called a siege, which has the smallest size and no sails. It has seven to ten wooden oars on both sides, so it is the fastest speed, equivalent to a speedboat in later generations, and is a cavalry character who fights on the surface of the water. Although the boat is small, it cannot carry many officers and soldiers and cannot withstand the bombardment of heavy weapons, it is an indispensable role in water warfare. In many classic water warfare people, it is precisely the inconspicuous siege that plays a role in turning the situation around the war.

Ailang was very happy to see nearly two hundred warships of all sizes arranged into an army formation, with a grand and mighty aura. He kept praising Song Xian and Hou Cheng, and was so happy that the two generals were too excited.

That night, Ailang returned to Guangling City. After dinner, Ailang was still unsatisfied and paced around the yard to think about how to enhance the combat effectiveness of the navy. Although Ailang was very satisfied with the scene he saw today, he was also very clear that his newly formed naval army team, from equipment to personnel quality, especially the quality of officers and soldiers, could not be compared with the Jiangdong naval army, which started with water wars. If there is no breakthrough creation, it is not a dream to catch up with the Jiangdong naval army, but it is absolutely impossible to be in the visible time node in front of him.
