Chapter 661: Storming Mengjin Ferry

Under the orders of the enemy generals, the enemy soldiers in charge of the defense aimed most of the thunderbolts at the Jin army's transport ships, and continuously threw huge stones and burning fireballs.

The huge stones caused a lot of damage to the transport ship, and the burning fireball made some of the transport ships burn, and some unlucky Jin soldiers were directly stoned to death and burned.

Under the continuous attack of the enemy's thunderbolts, the Jin army's transport ships suffered heavy losses, and the formation began to be chaotic, and some ships had begun to retreat.

"General, you can't go on like this! The 30,000 main forces of our army have all become live targets for the enemy's thunderbolts, and the losses will definitely be extremely severe, so let's withdraw! A general looked at Deng Qiang and said softly.

Looking at the continuous casualties of the soldiers on the transport ship, Deng Qiang's heart was also very uncomfortable, but in order to be able to capture the Mengjin ferry as soon as possible, he couldn't take care of so much.

Deng Qiang frowned and said loudly: "You don't have to worry, as long as the soldiers resist the enemy's thunderbolt attack, after arriving at the shore, the victory will be ours, and the enemy's 20,000 horses will never be the opponent of our army's 30,000 elites." ”

"What the general said is, however, the price of this victory is really great, and our army's losses are likely to exceed 10,000!" A general said with emotion.

Hearing this, Deng Qiang frowned, and fell into deep thought, if it was to break through the Mengjin Ferry, it would be too much to lose 10,000 of the 30,000 elites under his command, but in order to break through the Mengjin Ferry as soon as possible, there was no better way than to attack it.

"Give the order, beat the drum immediately, and let the soldiers in front accelerate forward. As long as we landed on the other side, victory would belong to our army. Deng Qiang gave a loud order. And strode to the top of the warship, and personally beat the drum.

"Knock knock knock ......" on more than 100 warships. At the same time, the war drums of the offensive sounded.

The sound of drums is the morale of an army, and encouraged by the sound of huge war drums, nearly a thousand transport ships preparing to land speed up and sail towards the opposite shore in the face of enemy attacks.

The enemy generals defending the opposite bank were also taken aback when they saw that the Jin army was still speeding towards the shore after suffering huge losses, and immediately gave an order. Let the archers under his command be ready, as long as the Jin army transport ship enters the firing range, they will shoot fiercely to give the Jin army a fatal blow, and at the same time, the sword and shield soldiers and pikemen are also lined up at the rear of the ferry, ready to compete with the Jin army who landed on the shore.

The fighting at the Mengjin ferry port has entered a white-hot stage, and it is less than five miles away from the ferry. Zhuge Xiong and the 10,000 Wudang Flying Army under his command are ready to attack.

"General, General Deng Qiang personally led nearly a thousand warships, and they have already killed the enemy's position." The scout returns. Immediately report the situation of the ferry to Zhuge Xiong.

Zhuge Xiong was stunned when he heard this, and said in shock: "Where did General Deng Qiang get the nearly 1,000 warships, it can't be that even the transport ships are also on the battlefield!" ”

"General. It seems that General Deng Qiang's attack on the Mengjin Ferry is bound to win. The general said loudly.

Zhuge Xiong looked at the scout. Masaseki asked, "How is the enemy camp prepared?" ”

"General, the whole enemy army is fighting against General Deng Qiang's men and horses. The camp was completely defenseless, and if our army launched a surprise attack now, it could easily defeat the enemy army, so as to cooperate with General Deng Qiang to capture the Mengjin ferry in one fell swoop. The scout replied immediately.

A smile appeared on the corner of Zhuge Xiong's mouth, and he immediately ordered loudly: "The whole army is on horseback and preparing to raid the Mengjin Ferry."

Under Zhuge Xiong's order, the 10,000 Wudang Fei Army immediately stepped on their horses and rushed to the Mengjin Ferry not far away at the fastest speed.

On the shore of the Mengjin ferry, dozens of transport ships with scarred hulls stopped at the edge of the ferry, and the soldiers of the Jin army on board poured out of the cabin with shields and tread water to kill the banks of the Yellow River, ready to fight the enemy troops on the other side.

The follow-up transport ships continued to get closer to the transport ships that had already docked, and the Jin soldiers on board jumped to the shore along the deck of the transport ship.

In this way, more and more Jin soldiers landed on the shore, and formed a defensive formation on the shore, and only after the men and horses were strong enough would they attack the enemy formation.

The enemy's thunderbolts were still roaring, countless huge stones and burning fireballs were still falling on the transport ships in the rear, and the soldiers of the Jin army were still suffering losses.

"Shoot the arrows, give me the arrows hard." Seeing that the strength of the Jin army landing on the shore had reached 2,000 people, the enemy commander in charge of defense was a little nervous, and immediately gave the order to release the arrows.

"Whoosh ......" Suddenly, countless arrows whistled towards the formation of the Jin army, and caused a lot of losses to the Jin army.

"Soldiers, the Jin army landed only 2,000 men and horses, and the whole army is ready for battle and drives the Jin army down the Yellow River." The enemy commander shouted to boost morale.

"Drive the Jin army down the river, drive the Jin army down the river." The enemy soldiers were immediately demoralized and roared.

"Report, General, General Zhang has an order, our army must immediately evacuate the Mengjin ferry and evacuate in the direction of Shangdang County." Just as the enemy commander was about to attack, a colonel rushed over.

When the enemy's commander heard this, he was furious, and hurriedly asked: "Our army happened to completely annihilate the Jin army, why should we retreat immediately." ”

The colonel immediately replied: "General, tens of thousands of horses and horses of the Jin army have crossed the Yellow River from Chenggao Ferry and Aocang Ferry, General Cao Fu lost most of his troops and abandoned Pinggao City, last night, 10,000 main cavalry of the Jin army arrived in Yewang City, General Zhang has also led the army of Yewang City to retreat to Shangdang County, and specially let the last general come to inform the general, and ask the general to retreat quickly. ”

The enemy's commander was furious when he heard this, pointed to the battlefield he was going to, and shouted: "The Jin army has already attacked the north bank, how can the general retreat calmly, and when the general repels this round of attack by the Jin army, he will immediately retreat, go to Shangdang County, and join General Zhang's men and horses." ”

"Order, beat the drum to march and drive the Jin army down the Yellow River." The enemy commander shouted and ordered.

"Knock knock knock ......" The huge war drums sounded in the enemy formation.

"Kill ......" more than 10,000 soldiers of the enemy army, shouting and launching a fierce attack on the defensive formation of the Jin army that had just landed on the shore.

Seeing the enemy's more than 10,000 soldiers and horses surging and killing, the Jin army officers and soldiers understood that there was no way to retreat at this time, and the Yellow River was behind them, and if they wanted to survive, they had to block the strong attack of the enemy's more than 10,000 soldiers and horses.

"Soldiers, our army reinforcements will continue to land on the shore and hold the position, and we must hold the position." The generals of the Jin army loudly boosted morale.

"Kill ......" Soon, the soldiers of the two armies were completely fighting together, and the shouts of killing and the screams of the wounded soldiers resounded throughout the ferry.

Due to the position on the shore, the enemy forces occupy an absolute advantage, therefore, the battle is becoming more and more unfavorable to the Jin army, but in order to hold the position, the Jin soldiers are also fighting with all their might, and no one fled backwards.

Deng Qiang, who was standing on the warship in the distance, saw that the landing troops under his command had already fought with the enemy army, and they were still at a disadvantage, he was extremely anxious, and immediately ordered: "Approach the shore, quickly approach the shore, I was going to go ashore to kill the enemy in person." ”

"General, you are the commander of the whole army, let the soldiers fight in the front!" For the sake of Deng Qiang's personal safety, the general immediately dissuaded him.

Deng Qiang was furious when he heard this, and ordered loudly: "The main general will not personally rush to kill, how can the soldiers be willing to use their lives, pass on my general's order, and the warship will immediately approach the shore, be fast." ”

The generals had no choice but to obey Deng Qiang's military orders, and the main battle ship immediately sailed towards the side of the ferry port.

After getting closer to the transport ship, Deng Qiang personally led his generals to shuttle between the decks of the transport ship and ran to the shore.

Because the 2,000 cavalry of the Jin army fought on foot, they could not give full play to their advantages as cavalry, and besides, the shore position of the ferry was very small, and the cavalry could not form an impact, and after a period of fighting, the disadvantage became more and more obvious, and even began to retreat slightly.

"The Jin army is almost unbearable, soldiers, attack with all your might." Seeing that his side had gained an advantage, the enemy commander was greatly excited and immediately gave the order to attack.

"Kill ......" The confidence of the enemy soldiers was greatly encouraged, and they launched an even more frantic attack on the Jin army.

The shape of the battlefield can be described as precarious for a while, and the Jin army may collapse at any time, and eventually lead to a comprehensive large-scale rout.

"Soldiers, our army has no way to retreat, attack with all its might, and we must take the Mengjin ferry today." At the most critical moment, Deng Qiang, the chief general of the Jin army, led a group of generals to kill him and loudly boosted morale.

"Soldiers, the Lord General has personally charged, the Lord General has personally charged." Deng Qiang's subordinates also loudly boosted morale.

When the soldiers of the Jin army saw that the main general Deng Qiang and all the generals were personally rushing to kill in front, their morale was immediately boosted, and they attacked and killed with all their strength, stabilizing their positions.

Seeing that the Jin army was gradually stabilizing its position, the enemy army commander began to be afraid, after all, the Jin army's transport ships were gradually approaching, and the number of soldiers landing on the shore was gradually increasing, and the balance of victory would sooner or later fall to the side of the Jin army.

However, worse things were yet to come, and the enemy commander would never have dreamed that the 10,000 elite cavalry of the Jin army was now coming at their backs and would soon arrive at the ferry.

Zhuge Xiong took the lead, led a 10,000-strong Wudang flying army, ran to the Mengjin ferry at the fastest speed, and raised his weapon to kill the enemy.

"Soldiers, kill, respond to General Deng." Zhuge Xiong roared and led his army to kill the enemy.

"Killing ......" 10,000 soldiers of the Wudang Flying Army let out an earth-shaking shouting of killing, which immediately covered up the shouts of the enemy and the Deng Qiang army who were fighting fiercely in the direction of the ferry.

The enemy commander was taken aback when he heard the loud shouts of killing and the sound of horses' hooves behind him, and his intuition told him that the cavalry of the Jin army had killed him in the back.

"General, the 10,000 cavalry of the Jin army are killing from behind, and our army is no longer able to arrive, so let's withdraw quickly!" A subordinate general shouted loudly. (To be continued......)
