Zhang Yu initially formed an alliance and sent a message to the world.

This Zhang Yu seems to have become the new leader of the alliance.

Zhang Yu invited Yuan Shao to join the allies and crusade against Yuan Shu.

The two are brothers, and now that Yuan Shu is the emperor, Zhang Yu deliberately went to embarrass Yuan Shao.

Yuan Shao also had to issue a statement to crusade against Yuan Shu.

A few days later, Lu Bu, Sun Ce, and Cai Mao sent troops, and Zhang Yu called himself the leader of the alliance.

The Allied forces are formed, and the world is looking sideways.

Yuan Shu urgently transferred tens of thousands of troops to stop Zhang Yu.

However, Lu Bu, Sun Ce, and Cai Mao sent troops from three different directions.

For a time, Yuan Shu was embattled.

Lü Bu attacked Jiujiang County from the direction of Xuzhou, Cai Mao attacked Lujiang County from Jiangxia County, Sun Ce attacked Lujiang County from the direction of Poyang Lake, and Zhang Yu also planned to attack Lujiang County from Danyang County.

Four people, almost invading from four different directions, Yuan Shu's army of more than one million people seemed to be a little overwhelmed.

The four-way army is huge.

Although Zhang Yu is the leader of the alliance, he does not command their army, he only needs a name.

Yuan Shu was shocked and hurriedly summoned his subordinates to deal with it.

"Damn, damn." Yuan Shu scolded and said: "I thought I was a bully, but now I have a jade seal of the country, and I am the real son of heaven." ”

"Your Majesty, although they are in four directions, but the hearts of the people are not aligned, they will not work together, we can block two roads, and the other two roads will be suppressed while co-opting." Yang Hong came out and said.

Yuan Shu asked Yang Hong to continue, Yang Hong was his chief military advisor, as long as he had an idea, everything would be much easier to say.

"Your Majesty, the Yangtze River is dangerous, you can block Zhang Yu, and send a strong army to block Lu Bu all the way, and the rest will first attack Sun Ce and Cai Mao, strike a strong blow, and then find an opportunity to win them over and disintegrate them." Yang Hong said.

"Okay, that's it." Yuan Shu ordered.

Then, Yang Hong proposed that Yuan Shu secretly send someone to find Yuan Shao and ask Yuan Shao to answer him.

The reason is very simple, it is not good for Yuan Shao for the princes to divide Yuan Shu, and Yuan Shu can still contain Cao Cao and Lu Bu, which is beneficial to Yuan Shao.

However, don't think that Yuan Shao will send troops to help Yuan Shu, at most it will threaten Cao Cao and Lu Bu to their rear, so that they will not be able to send troops with all their strength.

Another three days passed, and everything was ready.

At night, Zhang Yu and Guo Jia watched from the shore, the soldiers behind were ready, and some advance soldiers had already boarded the boat.

"My lord, in half an hour, the navy will arrive." Guo Jia said casually.

Zhang Yu looked at Jiang Shui and said, "Fengxiao, am I too conservative, if I have half of Yuan Shu's madness, our territory can at least double the size." ”

Zhang Yu suddenly thought that if he recruited more soldiers and horses, he might be able to unify China as soon as possible.

Guo Jia didn't know how to answer, if Zhang Yu did this, he would indeed be able to unify in advance.

Zhang Yu looked at Jiang Shui blankly, and finally took a breath and didn't bother with this problem anymore.

"It seems that the title of king still has had a certain impact on my mentality." Zhang Yu said, throwing away superfluous thoughts.

At this time, the Yangtze River was reckless, and a fleet of ships from downstream came quietly under the cover of night.

"Let's go, let's get on board too." Zhang Yu said to Dian Wei on the side.

Zhang Yu boarded the ship, Guo Jia left, he was not a combatant, what he had to do was to coordinate the armies.

The navy came from the sea, and the ships were very large, comparable to those of merchant ships.

The outside of the cabin is covered with skin to protect the archers inside and ensure that the rockets do not ignite the cabin.

On the opposite shore, Yuan Shu's army has been heavily defending.

An army of 300,000 puts too much pressure on them.

Yuan Shu's army was scattered along the long Yangtze River.

It is impossible to prevent the entire Yangtze River, so they can only defend a few key places.

"Lord, the navy has passed, and according to the plan, they will storm the defense line of the Yuan army and provide them with cover." Dian Wei said.

"Okay, order the army to enter the predetermined waters."

The onslaught of the trolls was actually just a front.

It was the army led by Zhang Yu and them who really went to war.

So why not let the navy go to the landing operation, and let the army on merchant ships go?

This is because the role of the navy is to destroy the enemy's ships and personnel on the water, and landing operations are actually not the strength of the navy.

In the other two places, Gao Shun and Ling Cao were also organizing soldiers and horses to prepare for landing operations, but the difference was that Gao Shun and Ling Cao were preparing during the day.

Preparing during the day, of course, is to attract the attention of the enemy, attract their firepower, and provide cover for Zhang Yu and them along the way.

"Kill."

"The shield comes forward, ready to strike."

"Attention, archers."

"Crossbow bolt fire."

Suddenly, there were countless shouts on the surface of the river, where there was only the sound of the waves, and the navy launched a surprise attack after approaching the local camp.

Suddenly the fire rushed to the sky, and the sky was full of fire and rain.

The soldiers of the Jiangdong Navy all mounted rockets and attacked the shore, and some facilities on the shore were on fire to varying degrees, but the fire was not large and was easy to control.

The soldiers on the shore were attacked suddenly, and after a while of panic, they began to counterattack under the leadership of the officer.

Both sides shoot with bows and arrows.

Suddenly, several loud noises came from the shore, accompanied by a loud sound of destruction.

This is the sound of crossbow bolts attacking.

Crossbow bolts attack, extremely destructive.

Dozens of crossbow arrows suddenly attacked and killed under the cover of the night.

Many soldiers had never seen such a powerful weapon, and in the end they didn't even know how to die.

Both sides shoot with bows and arrows.

The Jiangdong naval army had already prepared, blocked it with shields, and approached the attack.

The cabin was also a very important cover place for the Jiangdong naval forces, and although they could not attack in the cabin, they retreated to the cabin after attacking, remounted the arrows, and then went out to attack.

The wind is strong on the river, and the bow and arrow are a little erratic.

Whether it was the Jiangdong army or the Yuan army, the lethality was greatly reduced.

But the crossbow bolts were unaffected and still exert great attack power.

On the shore, Yuan Jun didn't realize anything at first.

But after about half an hour of fighting between the two sides, many soldiers realized that something was wrong.

Thick logs flew in and killed them.

A lot of buildings are pierced, even whole people are pierced.

Fortunately, it was at night, so the visual impact was not too great.

But the bloody facts were there, and many people began to panic.

A few miles away, Zhang Yu and the others also quietly docked.

There was also a defense by Yuan's army, but the number was small, only 3,000, because the terrain here was relatively narrow and not suitable for landing.

"Evil comes, it's up to you, you must wear heavy armor." Zhang Yu patted Dian Wei's shoulder and said.

Dian Wei nodded, holding the double halberd in his hand, and put on the heavy armor with the help of the soldiers.

At the same time, there were many soldiers who also wore heavy armor at this time, and they were all carefully selected.

"The archers are ready to attack non-stop, to clear an open field for the landing army."
