"What's the other path mister is referring to?" Ouyang Shuo asked.
"Attack Chaisang." Jia Xu went straight to the point, "Chaisang current has no troops. If we plan it well, we can definitely break in. The moment Chaisang falls, the danger at Yizhou will be resolved."
Ouyang Shuo smiled and nodded, "Mister that was exactly what I was thinking. Send the order, swiftly clear the battlefield. Rest for a day in Red Cliff; then, we will strike Chaisang!"
"Yes Monarch!" Zheng He went to execute the orders.
Ouyang Shuo summoned the messenger, asking him to send a letter to Feng Qiuhuang, "Defend for ten days and the situation will change."
Xunyang Prefecture, Chaisang.
Changjiang River flowed to the foot of Lushan and was connected to Poyang Lake before reaching Chaisang.
Chaisang was called Jiu Jiang now, guarding the throat of Changjiang and was a place that militants would always fight for.
Before Red Cliff, Chaisang was the governing area of the Jiangdong Organization. It looked over Jiangxia; the goal was to take down Huang Zu. Zhou Yu trained the Jiangdong Navy in Poyang Lake to keep up with the times.
After the death of Huang Zu, Chaisang was still a place where attention was focused on.
After five days of travel, the voyage squadron finally reached outside Chaisang City. The squadron suddenly appeared from the mist. Ouyang Shuo held his sword and had his cape on; overall, he looked decidedly majestic.
"Send someone to tell Sun Quan to come out and surrender. As long as he uses Zhou Yu to exchange, I will not massacre them. If he does not, let the Chaisang people die with him!" Ouyang Shuo proclaimed emotionlessly.
"Understood!" Jia Xu received the order.
Jia Xu believed that the Monarch would follow his words, but he hoped that Sun Quan would be more defiant.
Chaisang City was built up in the water and was surrounded by water on all four sides. To an army, Chaisang was definitely something that was hard to attack. But to the voyage squadron, it was the easiest to take down.
The squadron just needed to get close and the cannons would be able to destroy the city wall. As they had cannon platforms on the warships, the cannons could shoot over the city wall and shoot inside the city.
That killing strength was something that Chaisang could not block no matter what.
Hence, when the golden dragon flag fluttered outside Chaisang City, the people in the city were shocked.
"They have nefarious intentions!"
"What warship is that? I have never seen it before!"
"I'm guessing they are the ones who destroyed the Lu Su and Huang Gai Armies."
"Then aren't we dead?!"
