Chapter 746: A battle between the earth and the river

The Han River, which flows from Hanzhong, follows the southwest of Nanyang, enters Nanjun, and then flows south from Nanjun to join the Yangtze River.

This is the main river of Yangyang.

At the same time, it is also the largest battlefield of the navy.

The flow of the Han River is not very smooth, and there are some sharp breathing bays, which have become passes.

Half Moon Bay is one.

Yaoshan Bay is also one.

Jingping's Second Army has pressed all the main forces on Yaoshan Bay, defended this bay mouth impenetrable, and built more than ten water villages before and after, across the river, not to mention fighting ships and ships, even a small boat can not cross over.

In the first battle of Tanxi, the second army of Jingping, that is, the Jingping Water Army, was damaged in strength, but only the warships were damaged, and now hundreds of supplementary warships sent from the back dock have all been incorporated into the battle sequence.

The current Jingping Second Army, whether it is the ability of the warship or the strength, has completely surpassed the before, and after the baptism of the Battle of Tanxi, these naval officers and soldiers are more imposing than before.

"Half Moon Bay has been breached?"

Zhang Liao stood on the water village, hunting with his eyes, looking ahead.

"Hmm!"

Hou Cong nodded: "The fourth battalion has retreated, and now it is resting in the water village, and the scout boat is on guard behind, and it is found that the Jiangxia Navy has not continued to break through, they are resting in Half Moon Bay!" ”

"Let the scout ship keep exploring!"

"No!"

"Zhang Shi!"

"In!"

"The fifth battalion takes the initiative!" Zhang Liao said: "I can't let them be so easy, counterattack Half Moon Bay, but stop at the point, run away after a battle, and never give them a chance to bite you!" ”

"No!"

Zhang Shi received the order.

"General Zhonglang, is it useful for us to provoke like this?" Hou Cong asked.

"If it's you, a fly buzzing in your ear, do you want to slap him to death?" Zhang Liao asked with a smile.

"Of course!"

Hou Cong said: "But we are not flies!" ”

"Compared to the Jiangxia Water Army, we are a fly!" Zhang Liao sighed: "Now the combat effectiveness of our naval army is too far worse than them, if they get serious, we are equivalent to a fly that will be swatted to death at any time!" ”

"You're trying to force them to get serious!"

Hou Cong understood.

"Otherwise, how can you lose!" Zhang Liao's eyes flashed with a gleam: "This is a battle that must be lost!" ”

On the waterway, he never thought that he could win, but if he loses, it is worth losing, and he must fight this battle.

…………………………

Long Zhongshan.

"The Jiangxia Navy has captured Half Moon Bay!" The news came back.

"How did Zhang Liao respond?"

Mu Jing asked.

"It's already a counterattack!"

"Well done!" Mu Jing pondered for a moment and said, "Gongtai, has Jingping's First Army withdrawn?" ”

"Not yet!"

Chen Gong said: "Chen Zhi is already thinking of a way, but if he wants not to arouse the suspicion of the Jingzhou army in the western suburbs and smoothly withdraw to Longzhong, he needs to deploy some suspicious soldiers!" ”

"Take it yourself!"

Mu Jing said: "To assist Chen Dao, the First Army must be withdrawn as soon as possible, this battle, without a single horn, will not be able to complete the task!" ”

"Understood!"

Chen Gong nodded.

"Zhou Cang!"

"In!"

"Let the Flying Cavalry Battalion attack!" Mu Jing squinted his eyes and said, "From the west to the south, and then into the eastern suburbs, we must divert the eyes of the city so that they can't figure out our thoughts!" ”

"No!"

Zhou Cang took the order and left.

"Can it be done?" Zhuge Xuan recorded the scribe next to him, and suddenly asked.

On land, and on the river, it is a different battlefield.

Mu Jing actually tried in vain to use the soldiers on land to forcibly intercept and kill the Jiangxia army, which seemed a little whimsical, and he couldn't figure out where Mu Jing's confidence came from.

"I can't hear that!"

Mu Jing glanced at him, and his voice became cold: "This is a war, if anyone says such things that shake the hearts of the army during the war, no matter who it is, they will not be spared!" ”

Zhuge Xuan was stunned, as if he had known this young prince with a male soldier for the first day.

Mu Jing ignored him and continued to examine the map.

This is a unique battle, and it is also the key to whether or not Xiangyang can be captured, if the Jiangxia army can be eliminated, then Xiangyang will be left with a lonely city, and if you want to attack Xiangyang at that time, it will be much simpler.

"Chen Sheng!"

"In!"

"You continue to take people to survey the West River, but the map of this river is still a little confused!" Mu Jing said in a deep voice: "I want the clearest map of the river, the flow and depth of each section, I want to know it clearly!" ”

"No!" Chen Sheng nodded.

"I'll go!"

Zhuge Xuan arched his hand and said: "Xihe, I'm more familiar with it!" ”

"Okay!"

Mu Jing glanced at him and said, "Then let Chen Sheng lead troops to assist you!" ”

After the two left, Mu Jing was pinching the bridge of his nose.

"It's still Xi Zhicai's guy who is more comfortable here!"

Mu Jing sighed.

It's not that Chen Gong's ability is not good, it's just that Chen Gong doesn't have the mind of Xi Zhicai, and Xi Zhi is the person who knows his mind best, so he can cooperate with him seamlessly in many things.

Chen Gong is not good.

There is some caution in doing things themselves, coupled with a cautious mentality, and a lack of courage to take responsibility, many ideas will be hidden and pinched as long as they are not confident, so that they will take less responsibility.

"You take a break!"

Zhang Ning came in with a bowl of millet porridge and said softly: "This battle is not an overnight thing, besides, you are the lord, since you have formulated a strategy, just leave the rest to them to do!" ”

She handed the millet porridge to Mu Jing and continued: "You often say that it is best to let the right people do the right things and perform their duties, and this battle, since you have handed it over to them, let them fight!" ”

"It's easy for you!"

Mu Jing smiled bitterly.

How can things be so easy, a big war, the load in his heart is very large, if he can't stare at it step by step, he is always not at ease.

………………………………………………………………………………………………

Half Moon Bay.

The Jiangxia navy camped, and one by one the warships anchored in the water side by side.

"How dare they attack?"

Originally, it was a good thing to break through Half Moon Bay, but unexpectedly, the Mujun Sailor killed a horse gun, and everyone suddenly became angry, and Huang Zu's mood became manic by three points.

Easily captured Half Moon Bay.

Let him restore his confidence in the Jiangxia Navy, he said loudly: "It's just right, who is going to fight?" ”

Chen immediately asked for battle: "Lord Taishou, give me one, I'll see them by beheading!" ”

"Good!"

Huang Zu nodded: "I'll give you one, you go to fight!" “

Chen led a team, drove a warship, and went to meet the battle.

The warships of the two armies collided on the river, and as soon as they came up, they charged, and they fought violently, crisscrossing one after another, shouting and killing like thunder, bows and arrows coming and going, and layers of arrows covered with rain of arrows......

Four hours of fighting.

The herding ships were defeated.

Zhang Shi threw away two large fighting ships, more than ten ships, and fled in a hurry with the remnants of the remaining soldiers.

Chen won a big victory, but there were also a lot of injuries under his command.

He had wrecked one ship, and six or seven ships had been smashed into pieces and floated on the water.

…………………………

Xiangyang City.

Liu Biao went to the top of the city and looked around, the surroundings were quiet, although the city gate was closed, but there was no trace of the enemy.

"What are the intentions of the herdsmen?"

He slammed his fist into the stone brick and roared under his breath.

Just a few hours ago, the eastern suburbs found the herding cavalry, which came quickly, went quickly, and there was no trace, but when it appeared, it appeared, and the eastern suburbs were now the only area where there was no fighting.

Now that even the eastern suburbs have appeared with pastoral soldiers, then Xiangyang is completely besieged.

"My lord, maybe they're just scouts!"

Kuai Liang stood behind Liu Biao and bowed down and said.

Now there are some plants and trees in Xiangyang City.

"Don't take it lightly!" Liu Biao shook his head and said, "The herdsmen are cunning, everyone knows it, if it is said that they will cross most of the city and attack us from the eastern suburbs, it is not impossible!" ”

"Don't worry, my lord, I will be careful to defend!"

Wen Ping arched his hand and said.

"Deng Long, how is the northern suburbs?"

"The herdsmen have fought with us a few times, and they have not found anything abnormal so far, and they don't have many troops, so it is very difficult to attack the city walls, but I can't beat them when I go out of the city to fight!" Deng Long said very directly: "Whether it is ordnance, or the play of the battle array, it is far ahead of us, yesterday afternoon, we fought with the herdsman army in the northern suburbs, I sent 3,000 troops, they sent about 2,000 troops, the proportion of battle losses, one to two!" ”

The pastoral army started from the attack of Fancheng, and the Jingzhou army fought countless battles with them, most of which were defeats, but at first they still didn't have much feeling, and they always felt that the pastoral army was sneak attacking, and they were fighting on the opposite side, and they were confident to fight.

But only from the beginning of the Battle of Longzhong, they clearly felt that the fighting spirit, resilience, individual strength, and battle formation cooperation of the pastoral army were all above the Jingzhou soldiers.

This is the gap in combat effectiveness.

If it weren't for the replenishment of troops, the Jingzhou army would have been defeated long ago.

"One-to-two battle damage?"

Liu Biao gasped: "There is no vanity under the fame!" ”

The shepherd's ability to dominate the whole world is really extraordinary.

"The most important thing now is to see if Jiang Xiajun can eat the herding army!" Kuai Liang said softly: "As long as the Jiangxia army can eat the herdsman army, in this battle, we can go out of the city to counterattack, and if we lose the river area, they are just trapped beasts!" ”

The surroundings of Xiangyang, crisscrossed by waterways, as long as they lose the assistance of the water army, they will not be able to move an inch, and it will not be difficult to besiege them at that time.

"Lord, the Jiangxia Navy is alone, will there be a problem?" Wen Ping said worriedly: "Or I will send troops out of the city to assist!" ”

"No!"

Liu Biao shook his head: "Huang Zu's navy is the elite of Jingzhou, in the waterway, except for Cai Mao, he is the strongest, if we can't even stop the water war, then we have no hope, the most important thing for us now is to hold the city, don't give the pastoral army any chance, especially in the eastern suburbs, the pastoral cavalry appeared in the eastern suburbs, I don't think it's a coincidence, you have to be careful to defend!" ”

"No!"

The generals nodded their heads.

……………………………………………………………………

Outside the city.

On the Han River, the Jiangxia army won two battles and two victories, and its morale was high.

Rested for the day.

The Jiangxia Navy also regained its strength, and Huang Zu also let go of the worries in his heart at this time, and the whole person became high-spirited: "Pass my military order, the whole army advances, before sunset, I want to capture Yaoshan Bay!" ”

"Kill!"

"Attack!"

Jiangxia army attacked.

The warship moved against the wind and went straight to the water village of the herdsman in Yaoshan Bay.

"Sons, defend!"

"Get on the trebuchet!"

"Death defense camp!"

The soldiers of the pastoral army behaved very bravely and defended the water village.

However, the Jiangxia naval army, which had been aggrieved for a long time, completely broke out its combat effectiveness, and in less than two hours, it had already captured three water villages, and entered the inner side of the bay mouth of Yaoshan Bay, and forcibly tore open the defense line.

"It turns out that the naval warships can still alternate like this!"

Zhang Liao observed the battle situation in the internal water village, and he had to say that he had opened his eyes.

The warships of the Jiangxia Navy did a good job of cooperating with each other, one warship rushed in, and the second warship docked seamlessly, forming no gaps in the front and back, breaking through the gate at once, and not damaging the hull of the second warship.

It's a difficult one.

"General Zhonglang, we have lost five water villages!" Hou Cong came up to report.

"What about the casualties?"

Hearing this, Zhang Liao took a deep breath, calmed down, and asked.

"The casualties are already nearly three hundred!"

"It's almost, we can't go on like this!"

Zhang Liao said: "Give up Yaoshan!" ”

"No!"

The generals nodded.

All the soldiers quickly pushed out of Yaoshan Bay, abandoned all the water villages at the mouth of Yaoshan Bay, and withdrew northward against the current.

The Jiangxia army won another battle.

"Win!"

"Defeated them!"

"Hahaha, from now on, they have no place on the river!"

"In the future, our warships will come and go freely!"

The soldiers of the Jiangxia Navy drank highly.

Take Yaoshan Bay, in this section of the Han River waters, there is no dangerous place to defend, and the Jiangxia Navy does not have to be like the previous side, afraid of here, afraid of that, just vertical and horizontal, just the herding army warship, it can't be stopped at all.

"Three battles and three victories!"

Huang Zu stood on the deck of the building ship and laughed out loud: "The herdsman is nothing more than that!" ”

The previous Battle of Tanxi.

Later Battle of Longzhong.

Their warships were suppressed, and now they have breathed a breath of turbidity, completely recovering the strength of the Jiangxia Naval Army.

"Lord Taishou, the herding warship has withdrawn from the waters of twenty miles away under our pursuit!" Two hours later, Chen rushed back to report it.

"Good!"

Huang Zu was writing a report in the cabin, reporting to Xiangyang, such a big happy event, of course, to make Xiangyang happy.

"Taishou-sama, I also discovered something!"

"Say!"

"Entrance to the West River!"

"What?" Huang Zu raised his head suddenly, looking at Chen Zuo.

"The West River originally entered from Xiawan, but when I was chasing the Shepherd Army just now, I found that when some small ships of the Shepherd Army and the Water Army evaded our pursuit, they turned into a small river from the north, this small river is not eye-catching, there are reeds on the left and right, and it is not big!"

Chen said softly: "But after crossing the small river, it is actually the lower reaches of the West River!" ”

"Are you sure?"

Huang Zu's breath became a little anxious and asked.

"Sure!"

Chen said: "I have asked the scout ship to continue to inquire, be sure to draw a map before tonight!" ”

"Youtu!"

Huang Zu shouted.

The strategist Su Fei sent a map and spread it out in front of Huang Zu.

"We're here, Yaoshan Bay!"

Huang Zu walked along the Hanshui River on the map: "Where did you find the small river?" ”

"It should be here!" Chen measured it with his fingers along the map, and then said.

"Here?"

Huang Zu's eyes suddenly brightened, and the whole person seemed to become a little excited, pointing to the map, drawing a route all the way, and said: "If you go in here is the West River, then continue to go up from the lower reaches of the West River, that is Longzhong Mountain, the total length is only more than ten miles, and you can break through to the ...... in less than an hour."

"Lord Taishou, you have to think twice!"

Strategist Su Fei immediately swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and said with his hand of advice.

Long Zhongshan.

Now it is the headquarters of the pastoral army, which is heavily defended.

The commander of the herdsman's army, Ming Marquis Mujing, is now on Longzhong Mountain.
