Chapter 97
This round of shelling caused Moling City, which had already calmed down, to become chaotic again.

There were deafening explosions everywhere in Moling City.

This time, many people who had been hiding in their homes shivering during the previous round of shelling could no longer sit still and ran out of the house one after another.

This also made Moling City even more chaotic.

Many smart people, seeing the angle from which the shells came, fled to the city wall to hide.

This group of people drove most of the people, and then saw that countless people gathered from all directions, and fled to the city wall to avoid the shells.

This round of shelling was not as long as the previous round, and it only lasted 10 minutes before stopping.

However, the damage and casualties caused by this shelling to Moling City were several times greater than the previous one.

There was even a shell that hit a house that was lighting a fire for cooking, causing a fire in the city.

This time the fire burned down dozens of houses in the city before it was extinguished.

"Brother, look quickly, there is a small boat coming towards us over there." A young man pointed in a direction and said.

Everyone looked in the direction the boy pointed, and saw a small boat rowing from Jiangbei, with only two people on board.

"Go and have a look."

The Youzhou moved quickly and headed towards the boat.

Soon, the Youzhou arrived near the boat.

"We are scouts under the helmet of General Dangkou..."

As soon as the Youzhou approached, the two people on the boat shouted.

"General Dang Kou? It seems to be Zhang Liao." Someone on the Youzhou said.

"Put the rope and let them come up." Zhang Chao ordered to his subordinates.

After the Youzhou ship lowered the rope, soon, the two people on the boat climbed up along the rope.

These are two 34-year-old men. Their bodies are very strong, and they look like a powerful person.

"The villain is Liu Si, the scout under the helmet of General Dangkou, and this is Tian Wu. I have met everyone." The two said to Zhang Chao and his party.

"You are members of General Dangkou, why are you here to see us?" Zhang Chao asked the two scouts.

"I am ordered by the general to contact you." A scout said, "The general already knows that you have defeated Sun Quan's navy, so he has sent me to invite you to Hefei to meet with the general to discuss plans."

"Let us go to Hefei?" Zhang Chao was very surprised when he heard the scout's words.

"Yes, that's what the general said." The scout continued.

"I can't make the decision on this matter, how about this, I'll take you to see someone who can make the decision." Zhang Chao said to the two scouts.

Afterwards, the Youzhou turned around and returned to the Youzhou fleet.

Soon, Zhang Chao brought the two scouts from the Youzhou to Lin Yongsheng's ship.

Lin Yongsheng personally asked the two scouts about their intentions. After hearing that Zhang Liao asked them to go to Chaohu Lake, Lin Yongsheng thought about it and said to the scouts, "I'm afraid it won't work, at least not now. Let's talk about it later."

"It's getting late. We are about to return to Hailing. Will you disembark and go back or follow us?" Lin Yongsheng asked the scout.

"The general asked me to lead the way for you. If you don't go, we can't do business. Now that we have come to see you rashly, our identity has been exposed. After disembarking, we may be hunted down by Sun Quan's cavalry. We will still follow you, my lord." Go safer," said the scout.

"Okay, you guys just stay on the boat, we're going back to Hailing right away." Lin Yongsheng said.

"Give me an order to go back to Hailing."

Under Lin Yongsheng's order, the Youzhou fleet quickly sailed downstream and left Moling City.

On the Moling City, watching the Youzhou Fleet drifting away, Sun Quan secretly heaved a sigh of relief, the Youzhou Fleet finally left.

Lin Yongsheng led the Youzhou fleet down the river at a very fast speed, and it only took more than three hours to arrive at Hailing Ferry.

At this time, Hailing Ferry is very lively.

"Brother, you are here."

At Hailing Ferry, Lin Yongsheng met Liu Dongsheng and five thousand Youzhou Musketeers.

It turned out that after defeating Sun Quan's navy yesterday, Lin Yongsheng sent someone overnight to inform Zheng Chenggong, who was staying at the mouth of the Yangtze River, to bring his men to Hailing.

After receiving the notice, Zheng Chenggong immediately sent Liu Dongsheng to lead the team to Hailing.

"Where is Brother Zheng?" Lin Yongsheng asked Liu Dongsheng.

"Brother Zheng took three Galen ships back to Youzhou." Liu Dongsheng said.

"Back to Youzhou? Why?" Lin Yongsheng asked in surprise.

"Because the teacher sent the news that the border of Youzhou is a little unstable, so I asked Brother Zheng to take three Galen back." Liu Dongsheng said.

"The border is unstable? What's the situation?"

"It was our spies who discovered that Gongsun Kang in Liaodong had changed. The teacher was afraid that Gongsun Kang was targeting Youzhou, so he sent Senior Brother Zheng back." Liu Dongsheng explained.

"Here, does Liaodong Gongsun Kang dare to attack Youzhou?" Lin Yongsheng said: "Then shall we go back to Youzhou?"

"No, the teacher said that there is only a change in Liaodong, and he is not sure that it will target Youzhou. Let the three Galen go back to be prepared. Our ship is too slow, and it is useless to go back."

"That's right." Lin Yongsheng nodded. "Then let's stay here, at least let Sun Quan compensate us for the loss of 30 billion." (30 billion is equivalent to 300 million guan.)
"Then let's have a good discussion and see how we can make Sun Quan willing to pay for our losses."

"Now Sun Quan's remaining navy is afraid to fight us head-on, and we have no good way to force Sun Quan to make him pay for it."

"I think we can send someone to make a request to Sun Quan. If he doesn't agree, we can continue to bombard Moling City." Someone suggested.

"This method is good. Let's do the courtesy first and then the soldiers. If we don't give money, we will continue to fight, but who will we send to contact Sun Quan? What if the other party kills the envoy?"

"Didn't we capture so many prisoners yesterday? Just choose someone to bring a letter to Sun Quan."

"Okay, just do that."

When the Youzhou fleet returned to Hailing Ferry, Moling City was not peaceful.

Taking advantage of the departure of the Youzhou fleet at night, Sun Quan's navy dispatched overnight, transporting tens of thousands of soldiers, horses, food and grass across the Yangtze River to the north bank of the Yangtze River.

The movements on Sun Quan's side naturally couldn't escape the observation of Zhang Liao's scouts. Before dawn, the news was quickly spread to Hefei.

"You said that Sun Quan's navy was beaten by Youzhou ships and dared not fight, but now they have transported tens of thousands of troops to the north bank of the Yangtze River. What is the purpose of this?" Zhang Liaochao asked his generals in a room.

"This... is likely to be in response to the pressure we put on the border." Someone speculated.

"Since Sun Quan's navy is not the opponent of the Youzhou fleet, let's withdraw our troops to Hefei City. Sun Quan mobilized so many troops at once, they must be targeting us. It's too dangerous to fight in the field." One person said to Zhang Liao. .

"Then withdraw it." Zhang Liao thought for a while and agreed with his subordinates.
