Dragon map of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 1358 The Battle of Chaisang Six

The Ming army gave up the terrain that was most beneficial to them, rushed into Pengze Lake, and had already set up a battle formation. What their specific intentions are, this is still to be guessed.

It's a good guess to burn the boat.

After all, cutting off their own retreat, risking their lives, with the morale and equipment of the Ming army, they might even let them win the battle.

On the battlefield, the difference is often a thousand miles away.

Wu Jun can't say how much the morale of his soldiers will be worse than that of the Ming army, but if the Ming army really cuts off the way out, it will create a kind of pressure and force him to fight to the end.

Then Wu Jun will be somewhat afraid, because Wu Jun can retreat later, and when the shopping is at the end, there will always be people who are afraid in front of life and death.

But those who have no back, even if they are afraid, will fight to the ground, and those who have a back, no matter how firm their fighting will, will be shaken.

This is human nature.

Not cowardice, but a choice.

This is the real lethality of breaking the boat.

"It's not impossible, but if this is the case, then the general of the Ming army will underestimate our Wu army!" Zhou Yu said in a low voice: "If they are willing to break the boat, I am willing to play with them here, as long as I have enough money." Time, I can grind them to death little by little!"

Among the fighting methods, it is not unbreakable.

Otherwise, everyone would have to fight a battle and win.

It is impossible to maintain the aura for a long time, as long as you temporarily avoid their strongest and sharpest aura, and then make them dizzy, it is enough to exhaust all their fighting spirit.

It will even collapse without a fight in the end.

One drum is as powerful as a tiger, then it declines, and three times it is exhausted.

On the battlefield, if you want to break the boat and fight others, but they dodge, you are just accumulating all your morale on the cotton, which will have no effect at all.

In this way you will be dragged to death alive.

Therefore, tactics are never invincible, but at the right time, there will be the most suitable tactics.

"Captain, the news just came from Xiazhou in Ming Kingdom!"

A civil official handed a top-secret copy to Zhou Yu.

When Zhou Yu found out that the Ming army had entered the country, he mobilized all the scouts to inquire about the news as quickly as possible, and even awakened the spies who were lurking in Xiazhou.

The news came a little too late.

This shows that their spies in the Ming country may have been attacked to a certain extent. Otherwise, it is impossible for the Ming army to pass through the border so blatantly that no news can be spread.

Wu Guo also has a network of spies, but they are not combined like Ming and Wei, but are very scattered. For example, Zhou Yu has Zhou Yu's spies, and Sun Jian has Sun Jian's spies. The two sides are not common.

This is tantamount to greatly reducing the sharing of inquiring information. In addition, there is no organization and scale to unite. Naturally, it can't compare with the professionalism of Jing Wusi and the meticulousness of Yelou.

"The spies have already found out clearly that those who entered the territory of our country of Wu are under the command of the Ming army, the Violent Bear Navy, about eight combat battalions, and more than 2 troops!"

Zhou Yu opened the message, glanced at it, and then said softly: "The two main forces of the Ming army stationed in Jingxiang, the First Violent Bear Army is now in the north, and the Second Violent Bear Army is now stationed in Changsha, and there is no sign of mobilization! "

"A lone army going deep?"

This made many generals wonder what the Ming army meant.

"This is more interesting!"

Zhou Yu squinted his eyes, his eyes flickered, and his thoughts were spinning crazily: "Storm Xiong Sailor, their chief general, is a man of not very high grade. It comes from Hu Zhao, the prime minister of the Ming Dynasty. This shows that the monarch of the Ming Dynasty, Mu Jing, valued this man. Although this man was young, he had extraordinary achievements. When he fought in Jingzhou, this man made great achievements in battle. The monarch of the country, Mu Jing, holds a lot of importance, these years, he has also stationed troops on the Yangtze River, although there are few bloody battles, but there are many opportunities to fight with each other, he is not an easy person to deal with!"

Facing this person, Zhou Yu had a very special feeling.

Fighting intent.

Unconsciously, a fighting spirit will surge up.

"Report!"

At this time, another scout ship came to report.

"Say!"

"Report to the governor, the warships of the Ming army blocked the northern border of Pengze, including the warships we stationed on the Liyang River and Fanshui River, were defeated!"

"Explore again!"

"promise!"

The scout bowed his hands and led away.

"Blocked the entire northern border of Pengze Lake?"

Zhou Yu's pupils became gloomy. He walked over and walked along the sand table. Although the sand table was passed down from the Ming army, it was made more carefully after some changes in Wu State. The mountains, rivers and rivers are very delicate. very clear.

The whole of Peng Ze has been seen by him at a glance.

"I'm getting more and more confused about the Ming army's intentions!"

Ling Cao frowned.

"I don't understand either!" Zhu Zhi sighed: "If they want to fight us to the death, they shouldn't dare to be so bold, and put the warships in an array. If they say it's just a sneak attack, that's not right. It has already succeeded, we have indeed suffered countless injuries, and we have already suffered a defeat in this battle, and they should have retired!"

"Twenty thousand soldiers, hundreds of warships, if they enter the country, I'm afraid it will turn our Wu country upside down!" Jiang Qin also spoke, a little coldly.

"what?"

Zhou Yu's pupils suddenly opened and landed on Jiang Qin: "What did you just say?"

"Captain, as I said just now, [-] soldiers and horses..."

"The latter sentence?"

"I'm afraid it will turn our Wu country upside down..." Jiang Qin repeated what he said, and his expression changed a little: "No way!"

"Everything you think will happen, will it happen?"

Zhou Yu took a deep breath and said, "Their actions are abnormal in themselves. Since we can't analyze their intentions, let's analyze what they can do!"

Zhou Yu walked over, picked up a small bamboo pole, pointed at the sand table, and said: "From the very beginning, the warships of the Ming army entered the Yangtze River, killing us by surprise, until we Peng Ze gathered the main force, and now, we have been defeated It only took more than half a day to be crushed in the south of Pengze. At this time, it is reasonable for the Ming army's warships to continue to attack and fight us in a bloody battle, or retreat to the Yangtze River and retreat to the territory of the Ming country. However, the warships of the Ming army did not attack us on a large scale, nor did they retreat. Instead, they blocked our northern border of Pengze. Why block it, this shows that they have a purpose that we can't think of!"

"Entering the Yangtze River from here, walking along the river, there will usually be no one along the way. I thought that most of the main force of my Wu Kingdom's navy is not concentrated in our Chaisang, or it is already concentrated in the Kuaiji area to wipe out the water bandits!"

"That means that as long as they go down the river, they may be able to directly reach our capital city of Wu, Jianye, in five days!"

Zhou Yu's words just fell, and all the generals were shocked.

"Jianye?"

"Their purpose is to build a business!"

"Impossible, how dare they have such courage!"

"Although Jianye doesn't have many soldiers and horses now, it's not something they can spy on!"

"They are courting death!"

The generals were filled with righteous indignation.

Where is Jianye? It is the capital of the State of Wu. If the State of Wu has a face, that face is Jianye City. To beat Jianye City means to slap the face of the State of Wu.

As a general of Wu, how can he not be angry.

"Captain, don't you think too much? As for their naval forces, although they have a lot of troops, let alone whether they can reach Jianye, even if they successfully reach Jianye City, can they get in!"

Zhu Zhi held his breath, looked at Zhou Yu, and said, "This is undoubtedly to die!"

Jianye, that is the capital of the state of Wu. Even if the military strength of the state of Wu is currently tense, on the one hand, it is necessary to conquer Shanyue, on the other hand, it must send out an alliance to attack the state of Wu, on the one hand, it must concentrate Chaisang, and on the other hand, it must eliminate the water bandits and stabilize Jiaozhou. Wait, the troops are naturally tense. There are really not many soldiers in Jianye City.

But there are also tens of thousands of soldiers and horses.

In addition, because of the new construction of Jianye City, the current city is not high and the defense is not strong, but it does not mean that Jianye is easy to attack.

The most important thing is that in the territory of Wu State, King Qin who wanted to send troops from all over the country couldn't be easier. How could they capture Jianye City so easily.

In the end, 90.00% of the nine are just going to die.

"I still can't figure out why they are dying, but whether they are planning to enter the hinterland of our Wu country along the Yangtze River. Just try it!"

Zhou Yu raised his head, looked at the weather outside the boat, and said in a low voice: "They attacked us once at night, and we also fought back once. When the sun goes down, we will start moving!"

"Zhou Tai Jiang Qin!"

"exist!"

"Lead the main force of your troops to directly attack the main force of the Ming army, attack fiercely, attack at all costs, fight fiercely, and do not retreat without orders!"

"promise!"

"Ling Cao!"

"exist!"

"Your department took advantage of the main force to go to war, bypass the Sanjiang Estuary, and snatch the entrance of the Yangtze River from the east!"

Zhou Yu's eyes were sharp: "Remember, your main purpose is not to annihilate the enemy, nor to encircle them, but to seize the entrance of the Yangtze River!"

"promise!"

Ling Cao nodded.

"General Zhu Zhi, your troops suffered heavy casualties last night, so you need to rest temporarily, but you must ensure that you are ready for battle at any time. The Ming army is not easy to deal with. We must prepare for the worst. Even if we lose, it is not impossible. We will need you at that time." The Ministry will respond, and our army will withdraw from the battlefield!"

Zhou Yu said.

He doesn't think that the main force of the Wu army will be inferior to the fighting power of the Ming army, but he must prepare for the worst in everything and arrange for Zhu Zhi to respond. This is a bumper. If he really loses, at least someone will respond, so that he will not be defeated. Thousands of miles, a crushing defeat, save the main force, and there is still time to fight again.

"promise!"

Zhu Zhi nodded.

..........................................

The sun began to set slowly, and the afterglow of the setting sun was reflected on Pengze Lake. The blue waves were shining, and the shadows of warships were reflected.

After a day, the Ming army has temporarily established a foothold here.

But Zhuge Liang didn't dare to relax.

"It's night!"

Zhuge Liang narrowed his eyes slightly, and said: "We attacked the Wu army once at night, and they will not be reconciled. If I were them, I would get back the place, or I can say I got back some morale, so tonight, maybe there will be a battle." !"

"Come on!"

"Just in time for a battle!"

"Our army's morale is high, so why not be afraid of the first battle!"

The voices of the generals were awe-inspiring.

"Last night we were just sneaking in, but in the end we paid a lot of money to come in. I believe you already have a rough idea of ​​the combat effectiveness of the Wu Guoshui army!"

Zhuge Liang warned: "Don't underestimate each of our opponents. As the saying goes, a lion fights a rabbit with all its strength. Besides, we may not be Wu Jun's opponents, so we must be more cautious!"

"Yes!"

The generals nodded.

The night is getting deeper and deeper...

In the night, on the warship of the Ming army, the flames flickered, like a bright pearl in the darkness, allowing people to see this place at a glance.

"Three miles!"

Zhou Tai's warship had no light at all, but it was getting faster and faster.

"Be careful!" Jiang Qin is a very cautious person. He stared at the front and said in a low voice: "Since it is a sneak attack, it must be taken by surprise, and the attack must be fierce from the beginning. We cannot give them any warning..."

boom! ! !
But their voices fell silent, and the warship seemed to have hit something.

The huge sound is continuously passed out.

"It's a hulk!"

"The warning line of the Ming army!"

Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin's expressions turned slightly sideways when they saw the boats that were not overturned ahead and then submerged in the water.

Scouting the Realm is an indispensable thing.

Their scout ships had checked before the sneak attack, and there were no scout ships in this direction, so they made a sneak attack from this direction. Unexpectedly, the Ming army was ingenious and used those abandoned warships to form a warning line. They were pulled on the surface of the water and could not be seen in the night, but as soon as they hit the water, they broke their wires and fell into the water, making a quick sound.

Wu Jun has also used this method, but it seems a little abandoned. Even a warship that cannot be used in a war can be used as a transport ship and used as a cordon, which is too extravagant.

"Enemy attack!"

"alert!"

Everyone on the warship of the Ming army was alert, and one by one the soldiers quickly entered the combat position from the cabin.

"attack!"

Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin are also extraordinary generals, they don't think about other things at this time, since they can't sneak attack, they should attack by force, and never miss the opportunity.

"Rocket, go!"

"Prepare tung oil, catapult, hit it!"

Zhou Tai commanded the soldiers, and began to attack the Ming army warships in front of them fiercely. All the arrows had already been ignited, and the tung oil piles were smashed forward with small trebuchets.

"Sure enough, it's here!"

On the Violent Bear, Zhuge Liang walked out of the deck wearing a coat, holding a binoculars, and staring ahead: "The scale is not small, it's not a sneak attack, it's the main force!"

"How to do?"

Several generals became a little panicked.

"Order the third battalion and the fourth battalion to evade!"

Zhuge Liang ordered: "In addition, the left wing of the sixth battalion is in formation, ready to counterattack!"

"promise!"

The orderly immediately began to deliver the order.

Since Zhuge Liang had been prepared for a long time, he would not let the Wu army sneak attack. The Wu army attacked fiercely, but after fighting for half an hour, there was still no warship that could approach the Ming army.

Zhou Tai was a little anxious: "The opponent's array is too meticulous, we can't break through it, and we will be powerless because of the consumption of long-range weapons!"

"How to rush away?"

Jiang Qin frowned.

"Divide the troops!"

Zhou Taidao: "I will attack from the front, and you will attack from the flank. You must rush in and disrupt their formation!"

"can!"

Jiang Qin thought for a while and responded to Zhou Tai.
