(The third update, rare, ask for a red ticket)

The exile army was defeated, and Sun Zhuang fled north.

The moon in the sky will be hidden, the sky is full of thin clouds, Sun Zhuang has no way to collect the stragglers, the four cronies who crossed the river with him, two died, one was separated, and one was left by his side.

Fortunately, the soldiers and horses on the east bank of the Shushui River were intact, but they were only blocked by the Shushui River, and the war on the west bank was beyond the reach of the whip, so they raised torches and launched along the coast. Sun Zhuang fled north for nearly ten miles, and when he saw the pursuers recovering, he took off his armor and swam across the shore to join the elite of the east bank. The pursuers retreated, with torches on the east bank, and the stragglers on the west bank gradually calmed down, Sun Zhuang sent people over and led them to continue to retreat north.

Sun Zhuang was depressed in this battle, and all the elites of his department were blocked on the east bank, except for the more than 200 troops sent by Chen Hansan on the west bank, which were still elite, the others were miscellaneous soldiers who raised food from the four places.

In the end, it was killed, which made Sun Zhuang particularly unconvinced.

There were no large number of ferries or pontoon bridges, and Sun Zhuang could not lead 2,000 horsemen to cross the river under the supervision of the officers and men, so he could only send people to the mouth of the river to monitor the landing of officers and men on the other bank.

It's just that the mouth of the river is too wide, and the river beach is five or six miles away, and you can only vaguely see some vague black shadows under the torches, and it is really difficult to know the specific movements on the other side.

Sun Zhuang led 2,000 cavalry to continue to retreat north, and there was a relatively narrow waterway in the Shushui River in the north, which was convenient to cross the river, and it was also convenient to block the river and restrict the infiltration of officers and soldiers from the upper reaches of the Shushui River; Chen Hansan had already led his troops to besiege Shuyang City, and he couldn't let this group of new officers and soldiers mess up the good things about besieging Muyang City.

In the dark, I raised the fire and traveled more than ten miles north, and walked to the narrow bridge, the Shushui River here is only 300 steps wide, and there was a wooden bridge erected on it in the early years, but it collapsed by the flood, and there were two half-rotten bridge piles erected on the river beach......

Rushed to the narrow bridge, the fire on the other side was like day, thousands of people camped on the other side, and asked the sentinels who came to contact, only to know that Chen Hansan led his troops to rush here, and knew the news that the previous interception of soldiers and horses was defeated, so he stopped here.

Sun Zhuang's stomach Chen Hansan and his blind mother 10,000 times, thinking that he had sent two hundred elites to the shore to intercept him before, but he himself was good, dragging and dragging behind to gather thousands of people before he set out, and his movements were naturally slow and he couldn't catch up. If Chen Hansan had a letter and directly sent 1,000 cavalry to blockade the coast, and then sent one or two thousand foot soldiers to follow behind, it would not be a big problem to stop this group of officers and soldiers from landing on the north bank.

There are also more than a dozen small boats in the river connected together to seal this river - Sun Zhuang is from a water village, and he knows that such a boat formation can only block the officers and soldiers from rushing upstream at night, so he pressed his dissatisfaction with Chen Hansan and crossed the river to meet Chen Hansan, the commander of the left guard.

"Before the ship formation, you should dig more dark piles, if you are not afraid of trouble in the future, sink a few more boats, fill in the deep road, it is best to have a long iron chain, and the river can be directly blocked!" Sun Zhuang is also straight, seeing that Chen Hansan directly talked about the ship formation, he couldn't help but complain about the delay in sending troops, and after a while, he smacked his lips and said, "This group of dogs/mother's officers and soldiers are difficult to bite, don't drive them off the shore, I'm afraid it won't be good to encircle and fight Shuyang!" The grain from Yunti Pass is also difficult to transport to Suyu! ”

"If the Jiangdong Left Army is easy to gnaw, there will be no place in the world where your grandson can't go!" Chen Hansan's face was as red as jujube under the light of the campfire, and he couldn't see any emotion when he said this.

Sun Zhuang was slightly stunned, and after fighting for a long time, he knew that he was fighting with the famous Jiangdong Left Army, but he was not afraid, the beachhead still had a chance to suppress the beach-grabbing soldiers, and the homeless army that would only gather on the north bank was mostly miscellaneous soldiers.

Sun Zhuang raised his head and stared at Chen Hansan's face, smiled, undisguised, and thought to himself: I said that your kid dragged on and gathered thousands of talents to go south, and he was frightened by the name of the Jiangdong Left Army.

Chen Hansan saw that the disdain in Sun Zhuang's eyes was so straightforward, and he was also angry in his heart, and he was also a little ashamed, no matter how strong the Jiangdong Left Army was, it was a rumor after all, who had seen it with his own eyes?

Sun Zhuang didn't mess with Chen Hansan, Zhang Gou went to Suyu to see An Shuai, Chen Zhen wanted to hold the Yunti Pass with 70,000 or 80,000 stone life-saving food, except for 600 cavalry in his hands, the others were useless miscellaneous soldiers, to drive the Jiangdong Left Army down the Huai River, but also with the help of Chen Hansan's troops in Shuyang.

Chen Hansan is not a descendant of the Hongzepu Liumin Army, and he has taken the title of the Left Protector of the Heavenly Jacket, knowing that the generals under Liu An'er have some opinions about him, he hid a little unhappiness, and strengthened the efforts to lock the river here overnight.

Lay dark piles in front of the ship formation, scuttle several ships, lock the iron rings of the ship formation together, remove the flammable sail masts, and smear mud on the ship board to prevent the Jiangdong Left Army from setting fire to the ship formation, and set up a camp on each side of the ship formation.

In addition to preventing the Jiangdong Left Army from going to Shushui River to meet Shuyang City, it is also necessary to drive the Jiangdong Left Army down the Huai River, so that the Jiangdong Left Army, which had been defeated four times in the infantry battle, can gain a firm foothold on the north bank!

There was no sign that the Jiangdong Left Army had landed on the east bank of the Shushui River, and Sun Zhuang took his 2,000 cavalry on the east bank to the west bank after dawn, and collected more than 3,000 troops.

Chen Hansan's troops are even more, and a total of 6,000 troops were drawn from the periphery of Shuyang, all of which were the elite of his headquarters, far from being comparable to the 3,000 cavalry of Sun Zhuang's miscellaneous soldiers.

*****************

When the morning dawned so that he could see the ground clearly, Sun Zhuang urged Chen Hansan to send troops with him to the north bank of the Huai River, just more than 20 miles away, when the warm sun rose above the treetops, riding on the high slope of the horse, you could see the camp formation of the Jiangdong Left Army in the east of the Shushui River and the north of the Huaishui River.

The Jiangdong Left Army, which landed overnight, was divided into three places, two of which were in the front, and formed a chariot camp with shield carts with short spears.

The two chariot battalions were four hundred paces on Wednesday, and when they were counted, nearly five or six hundred shield cars were used.

More than a dozen short spears pierced out in front of each shield chariot, making the shield chariot form a chariot that could be charged and defended.

In the chariot battalion, there are layers of armor, and there are no less than a thousand armor soldiers behind each chariot battalion.

Sun Zhuang scolded in his stomach, the Jiangdong Left Army is a strong fart, five or six hundred chariots only use tens of thousands of short spears, if his sons can equip these five or six hundred chariots, what is the fear of one or two thousand Dongyu'er? But he had to admit that this hedgehog-like shield car camp did give him a headache.

In addition to the two shield car camps in the front, what made Sun Zhuang even more headache was that the Jiangdong Left Army in the back was building a fence camp on the Huaishui bank.

Most of the camps are built and the camps are mostly temporary stationed.

Even if the shield car camp formation is the same as a hedgehog, as long as they have a decisive advantage in strength, and the soldiers dare to fight, they are not afraid of death, and a dozen people can poke a hole in the shield car camp formation by carrying a big log, and directly use the cavalry to charge, take their lives to fill it, and they can also scatter the shield car camp formation - even if the chariots are together, they are very thin.

The camp is prepared for long-term perseverance.

The wooden fence wall with horses and thistles, digging trenches outside, and even building two wooden fence walls with rammed earth in the middle can strengthen the fort, and it is much more difficult to storm it.

The standing wooden fence camp needs to cut wood for the fence, the Jiangdong Left Army only landed last night, and there is no large forest near the left, I want to come to these wooden fences are prepared in advance when the Jiangdong Left Army comes - the wooden fence wall on the front has been built, and the front alone is nearly 400 steps long, and the scale of the fence camp is so large! After it is built, it is no less than a city - Sun Zhuang thought to himself that the Jiangdong Left Army was fully prepared!

Seeing the cold light flickering in the grass in front of the rejection of the horse, Sun Zhuang thought to himself that it should be the iron thistle terrestris that was emitted, and there were hundreds of cavalry behind the wooden fence wall, and the Jiangdong Left Army was so extravagant that it was to use war ships to transport war horses - only last night saw that kind of large-scale naval battle had such a large space, take the black boat of Hongzepu, a ship can carry two or three horses for a long distance to the sky!

Seeing that the Jiangdong Left Army was arrayed on the north bank of Huaishui, and had the intention of strengthening the camp for a long time, Sun Zhuang suddenly felt very tricky, and couldn't help but look at Chen Hansan, and said secretly: How to fight this battle?

Chen Hansan also secretly regretted that he had sent 2,000 cavalry to block the coast after receiving the letter last night, so he didn't have to see such a thorny problem in front of him. Shuyang can't be captured or completely sealed, Yue Lengqiu still has a passage from Linyi to the south, now it seems that it is difficult to let go of Shuyang without driving the Jiangdong Left Army down the Huai River, but the Jiangdong Left Army with such a tight array will be gnawed?

The fence camp is half-built, the two shield car battalion formations are each other's horns in front of each other, and there are a small number of armor guards between the car camp and the fence camp, they have to break up the two shield car battalion formations, in order to threaten the fence camp behind, and also guard against the sudden attack of the cavalry of the Jiangdong Left Army behind the fence camp.

The Jiangdong Left Army is famous for its victory over the Dongyu with foot soldiers and the victory over the Donghai Kou with water, and the cavalry battle may not be bad.

**************

Zhang Yubo and Huai'an prefect Liu Tingzhou crossed the Huai to see Lin Tie, and when he crossed the river, he saw a large stream of Liukou coming from the direction of Shuyang, overwhelming, afraid of more than 10,000 people, I don't know what the situation of Shuyang is, and there is a bad omen in my heart.

Lin Lian's boat was parked in the river, but Lin Lian himself had already gone to the north bank himself. Zhang Yubo didn't care, he wanted to go to the north shore to see him, but Liu Tingzhou's scalp was numb, his back was cold, and he was sweating under the not too hot sun.

The Huai'an army fought with these rogues on the north bank, and they were defeated, losing thousands of soldiers and horses, Liu Tingzhou knew that the group of people who were interspersed between Shuyang and Huai'an were definitely the elite of the rogues.

Liu Tingzhou was worried about whether the Jiangdong Left Army could block the attack of the Liukou in a hurry on the north bank, and he was terrified, but he had to bite the bullet to see the Huaidong Jingkou who had the right to control him.
