"Mister, do you mean that we should choose the spot they will disembark to strike?" Ouyang Shuo was a little hesitant.

"Yes, that's right." Jia Xu nodded, “However, there are numerous spots where they could disembark, so getting the right spot is really difficult."

"What is your view mister?" Ouyang Shuo asked.

Jia Xu laughed confidently and finally described his plan.

When Ouyang Shuo and the others heard his words, their eyes lit up; they were amazed by some of the details. One had to say that Jia Xu was truly a talent. After spending some time with the voyage squadron, he was able to use their advantages to the maximum.

This military meeting finally ended at nightfall.

"Go prepare, follow the plan!" Ouyang Shuo instructed.

"Yes Monarch!"

Zheng He and the others bid goodbye and left.

The voyage squadron that had rested for a day once again entered battle status. That night, the second unit left Red Cliff and disappeared under the night sky.

Even Ouyang Shuo himself disappeared.

In the next week, the army would prepare for the upcoming battle.

Linxiang City, Lord's Manor.

After occupying Changsha Prefecture, Liu Bei chose Linxiang as the governing point.

Liu Bei had spent a large part of his life wandering around, so he could not hide his happiness now that he finally owned his own land. Unfortunately, the good days would last for less than a week before he welcomed the darkest day.

On that day, of his second brother who had left for Red Cliff, only a bloody head returned.

"Qiyue Wuyi, we are not finished!" Liu Bei's eyes were blood red, boiling with killing intent.

Liu Bei's holler shocked the entire manor.

In less than an hour, Guan Yu's death had stunned the entire city.

There and then, Liu Bei gathered everyone to discuss attacking Red Cliff.

In the main hall, Zhuge Liang, Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun, as well as player representative Chun Shenjun gathered, their expressions weird.

The moment Zhuge Liang walked in, his brows were furrowed. Seeing the Lord filled with killing intent, Zhuge Liang forced himself to mention not sending troops out.

Before the Huang Gai Army left, Zhuge Liang had suggested immediately moving out, but his suggestion was rejected.

Now that Red Cliff had fallen, logically speaking, Zhuge Liang should not support sending troops. First, they had just taken Changsha, and it was not stable; secondly, Red Cliff had become a war whirlpool.

The most rational course of action was to not do anything.

Zhuge Liang also guessed that the one in charge of Red Cliff had seen through this point. Hence, they handed over Guan Yu's head to try and provoke him into sending troops.

Just that point alone made Zhuge Liang wary.

However, when he saw his Lord's expression, he knew that he definitely would not be able to stop him. As an advisor and a strategist, he must consider how to win this war.

If not, and they failed, it would all be but a dream for the Liu Bei Organization to rule this land.

Zhang Fei's expression was the same as Liu Bei; there was nothing good to say. Zhao Yun was similarly furious; however, he was not as emotional as Zhang Fei.

Chun Shenjun also had a weird expression on his face.

Guan Yu being killed, Red Cliff falling, just thinking about these points, one would know what had happened to Xiong Ba and Zhan Lang.

His current feelings were undoubtedly complicated. On one hand, he wanted both of them out and was gloating; on the other hand, he was worried for Yanhuang the Alliance.

Especially since he had made a breakthrough in his attempt to recruit Zhao Yun and this suddenly occurred.

"What luck!" Chun Shenjun gritted his teeth.

Just at this moment, Liu Bei said, “Player Qiyue Wuyi is truly bold; he's not a human, killing our general! I'll move 80 thousand soldiers to fight back, advisor, tell us your plan!"

Right at the start, Liu Bei asked Zhuge Liang.

When Zhuge Liang heard these words, he frowned once more, “Lord, Changsha had just been occupied. Should we consider leaving 20 thousand men here to play it safe?"

"No." Liu Bei shook his head without any hesitation, “We can take it once, so we can take it a second time. Now, killing those Red Cliff bandits is the priority; we definitely cannot split up."

Liu Bei was not foolish and did not think that the enemy who killed Lu Su, Huang Gai, and Guan Yu's armies was a weak fellow.

Hence, since they wanted to strike, they needed to go all out.

The purpose of this trip was twofold: to take revenge for Guan Yu and to fulfil his own ambitions. In his view, the fall of the Huang Gai Army meant that Wuling Prefecture was a piece of juicy meat.

When they crushed the enemy at Red Cliff, the entire Jingzhou would be his.

Probably only he knew his current thoughts.

All rulers were like that; their thoughts were hard to guess, and they were not always pure.

When Zhuge Liang heard these words, he sighed, “The enemy is strong and has an absolute advantage in terms of their navy; they have also taken up a strategic location like Red Cliff. The only way would be to attack by land."

"The advisor is right." Chun Shenjun interrupted, “Currently, only the player forces that were housed in Red Cliff could have fought against their navy. Unfortunately, they have already been destroyed, so we definitely cannot attack from the sea."

Chun Shenjun interrupted because he was afraid the furious Liu Bei would drag the player army to their deaths.

"Since that's the case, does general have any specific plans?" Liu Bei asked.

One really had to admire him. Even when he was extremely anger, he could still maintain his rationality.

Such ability to bear pain and suffering combined with his discipline was exceedingly scary.

No wonder Cao Cao, Liu Biao, and Sun Quan all feared Liu Bei so much.

"In my view!" Zhuge Liang moved before the map and pointed at a water passage hundreds of miles away from Red Cliff and introduced, “This place is known as Ruxi Town and is a perfect spot to land. We can come here and make the navy proceed forward to attract the enemy’s attention."

"The true main force will disembark and rush day and night to reach Red Cliff before the navy to catch them off guard. Only then can we win this battle."

"Advisor, you truly are magnificent. Please give the orders!" Liu Bei smiled in delight. Seeing Zhuge Liang acting so supportive, he relaxed and gave him the power to reorganize the army.

Zhuge Liang immediately started to make the battle plan.

The next day, Liu Bei's army left Linxiang and went straight for Red Cliff. Two days before this, the army led by Gong Chengshi had once again arrived at Linyuan City.

The Battle of Red Cliff was going to enter its second stage.
