Chapter 225: Sneak Attack
Li Jing's army now has 150,000 troops, which cannot be said to be all elite, but most of them are young and strong, and they are fully armed!
Out of Pengcheng, to the south, first of all, Li Zitong's department, Li Zitong could not surrender, and was defeated by a battle! Li Zitong disappeared in the chaotic army!
Further south, it is close to Gangdo County!
Li Jing did not directly attack Jiangdu County, but assigned troops to attack the counties near Jiangdu!
Let Luo Shixin lead 30,000 troops to attack Liyang!
After waiting for Li Jing for a long time, the Sui army of Jiangdu County was personally led by Yang Guang and took the initiative to fight!
50,000 Sui troops fought from Jiangdu County!
"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"
Listening to the call of the military camp opposite, Li Jing didn't care, he had been hanging up the battle exemption card for five days!
Although a lot of troops were dispatched, and there were only 80,000 horses left in their hands, it was more than the 50,000 troops on the other side!
But Li Jing did not fight with superior forces!
Regardless of the provocation and scolding on the other side, he was very calm!
……
Jiangling, located in the south of the central part of ancient Jingzhou, is located in the middle reaches of the Great River, the west of the Jianghan Plain, the Yangtze River in the south, the Han River in the north, the Bashu in the west, and Hunan and Guangdong in the south.
Since the Han Dynasty, because the ruling center of the Central Plains Dynasty has been between Henan and Shaanxi, Jiangling controls Bashu in the west, connects Xianghan in the north, takes the rivers and lakes, and refers to Wuyue, which is the key point of the Central Plains to communicate with Lingnan, and is naturally one of the important towns in the world!
Gangneung has also encountered a lot of battles so far, and it is no problem to fight hundreds of battles large and small, and thousands of soldiers have died under the city walls; The most famous battle is the surprise attack of the Eastern Han Dynasty and the former general Guan Yu of Shu during the Three Kingdoms period, when the Eastern Wu Han Chang Taishou Lu Meng crossed the river in white clothes, attacked Jiangling, and annihilated the surprise attack of Guan Yu, the former general of Shu.
In the leap October of the twenty-fourth year of Jian'an, Sun Quan first sent Lü Meng to lead the army to hide and go out, enter Xunyang, ambush the elite soldiers in the disguised merchant ships, and make the soldiers wear white clothes, disguise themselves as merchants, recruit people to rock and paddle, day and night, sail back the river, and attack straight to Jiangling, everything is very hidden and secretive.
At that time, the soldiers of the Shu army stationed in Jiangfang were deceived by the disguised Wu army, and they were caught off guard, and all of them were captured, and the city of Jiangling was empty and fell into chaos.
Lü Meng first asked Yu Yu, the former cavalry commander, to write a letter to lure Fu Shiren, a Shu general stationed in public security, and then asked Fu Shiren to lead the Wu army to force down Mi Fang, the Taishou of Shunan County, who was guarding Jiangling.
Mi Fang offered the city to welcome, and Lü Meng led a large army into Jiangling, thus recapturing Jingzhou, which Shu had occupied for a long time.
After that, Guan Yu defeated Maicheng, and it became almost impossible for Shu Han to rejuvenate the Han Dynasty!
In November of the first year of the first century, on a cold night, there were countless ships fluttering in the river in front of Gangneung City!
In the shadow of the shadow, it seems that there are at least a thousand ships, although most of them are small boats, but it is still easy to travel in the river area of Gangneung!
On the Gangneung city wall at night, the lights are bright, there are sentinels everywhere, and there are patrolling soldiers marching from time to time!
Thousands of ships on the river took advantage of the night to rush straight to Gangneung City!
Only halfway across the river, he was noticed by the sentinels on Gangneung City!
With the sound of the urgent trumpet, Gangneung City was busy!
Wei Chi Jingde, who was guarding Jiangling, also got up at this time, went to the city wall, and looked at the thousands of enemy ships on the river, but he was not flustered or shocked, and directly ordered: "Send a signal!" ”
He looked like he had been prepared!
There are a lot of boats on the river, and in addition to small boats that can only carry 10 or 20 people, there are medium-sized boats that can carry 100 people and large boats that can carry more than 500 people!
There are not many big ships, only three, and compared to the small boats next to them, they are really like giants!
The three big ships are marching at the rear, looking at the fireworks that suddenly rose in the city at this time, several people standing on the bow of the boat in the middle of the boat have changed their faces, the first two are dressed in white, with long hair, they should be middle-aged, with deep eyes, and their hands behind their backs, and their demeanor is extraordinary!
The other person is no worse than him, although he is also a middle-aged man, but his black pupils are as clear and dazzling as obsidian, shining with an awe-inspiring heroic aura, and there are sharp eyes hidden under the seemingly calm eye waves, with a handsome face that is upright and strong, with a deep contour like carving, and a big knife on his back! It's even more imposing!
The middle-aged man dressed in white and with his hair scattered said at this time: "Brother Song, it seems that this Jiangling City has been prepared!" ”
The man with the knife on his back was expressionless at this time, and said indifferently: "The arrow has to be sent on the string!" What if you have been prepared, this time the whole army of my Song lord came out, and there were the elites convened by various ethnic groups in Lingnan and the elites selected from southern Hunan and other places, with a total of 70,000 vanguard troops, and then there were 100,000 troops from all over the country behind them, waiting for the whole army to arrive, what if this Jiangling City is prepared?
The way of the art of war, with the right combination to win the odd; At that time, Sun Wu Lümeng took advantage of Shu Han's unpreparedness, and then attacked Jiangling and captured Jingzhou. What about this Wei Chi Jing Derby Guan Yu?
As long as Jiangdu Yang Guang can withstand the siege of Li Jing, then there is still a lot to be done in this world! Otherwise, even if you win this battle, you will still ...... after that."
Speaking of this, a trace of solemnity appeared on the face of the man with the knife on his back! Suddenly turn to the upper reaches of the river!
I saw that there was also a fiery red firework rising into the sky over there, and even in the distance!
It turned out to be a fireworks message!
This is a hundred miles away, and I am afraid that it only takes at most one tea kung fu to transmit the message!
His face was only slightly worried, and then he stopped looking at that place, and now it was useless to worry about anything, the most important thing was to defeat Jiangling!
At this time, the boats on the river, the front one had already docked, and the Sui army guarding the shore only had time to set fire to the dock and retreated to the city!
Originally, the Sui army in Jiangling City was not so easy to prevent fire, but Wei Chi Jingde actually personally took his personal guards out and killed the people who blocked it, so he successfully set the fire and took advantage of the enemy's army to retreat into the city in time!
It didn't take much effort for thousands of ships to come to the shore, because the wharf was burned, and they could only go to the shoals, and this delay, waiting for the army to be reorganized, was already a few hours later, and it was already approaching dawn!
"Brother Song, the speed with which this Wei Chi Jingde reacted and made decisions on the spot is really rare! I thought he was just a reckless man! Shi underestimated! None of us in the front army will let him burn the docks! ”
"This Jiangling City can't be taken in a while, according to the report, there are at least ten thousand people in the city, and it is not a surprise attack to take it!"
"Brother Song, we don't have much time! You see that the news has been reported, and I am afraid that reinforcements will be coming in three days! ”
"Then the two of us will personally lead the team and strive to take this city within a day!"
The sky was slightly bright, and Wei Chi Jingde, who was at the head of the city, looked at the banner of the word "Song" erected under the city at this time, and his face immediately changed greatly!
