Chapter 596

The moon is bright and clear, and the night is quiet.

Yin County, county government.

In the side room, the study room was brightly lit, and on the bamboo mat, a young man was sitting cross-legged, looking at the news in his hand, which was sent back from Jingzhou.

"It seems that Jingzhou is determined to win Shandu and Zhuyang!"

He muttered to himself.

This young man is Yuan Xu, the county magistrate of Yin County. talent.

The family of the Yuan family, the fourth generation and the third father, has great achievements, and there are countless people in the family, but few can make it to the top.

Yuan Xu is the talent that Yuan Shu is more optimistic about. When Yuan Shu captured Nanyang, he was appointed as Nanyang Chief Bookkeeper, in charge of Nanyang's internal affairs. In the land, the Mu family has a deep foundation, but it was gradually disintegrated by him.

Originally, he could have been promoted to be the head of the Nanyang Prefect's Mansion, but after the Nanyang Change, the Nanyang County soldiers were defeated, and he was forced to give up the land of the three counties. This also made the Nanyang Prefect's Mansion lose control of Nanyang Southwest.

Therefore, he was also appointed by Yan Xiang when he was in danger. He was the magistrate of Yin County and concurrently served as the county lieutenant of Yin County. He was in charge of the military and political affairs of Yin County.

With such a force, he can have certain checks and balances in the entire southwest of Nanyang, whether it is the Mujun City in the west, Wudang County, or Deng County in the South County.

He originally wanted to use the influence of Yin County to gradually expand and regain control of Zhuyang and Shandu counties secretly, but Jingzhou's sudden dispatch of troops broke the silence in the southwest of Nanyang.

"If I send troops, can I compete?" Yuan Xu was thinking, but he was a little hesitant about this decision. After all, Jingzhou soldiers and horses are coming fiercely, and the rivers and waterways he has blocked. It is difficult for the Jingzhou army to go north, but he can Not being able to go south is also a problem.

But Shandu and Zhuyang were originally the cities of Nanyang. If Jingzhou seized them, Jingzhou would have to step into Nanyang.

This is probably not what Patriarch Yuan Shu wants to see.

"boom!"

Just as he was thinking, a sudden roar made him tremble.

He didn't care to put on his shoes and socks, he stood up directly from the bamboo mat, pushed the door out, looked far into the distance, only saw the sky in the west, half of the sky was reflected by the flames, he shouted angrily: "Come on, What happened to West City?"

"My lord, there are... an enemy attacked our Yin County at night, and the west... west city wall has... been breached, and the three hundred soldiers of Li Yujun have been wiped out!" A county soldier rushed in, panting report.

"what?"

Yuan Xu's pupils shrank suddenly. At this time, there were soldiers and horses attacking Yin County. Where did the soldiers and horses come from? Questions swirled in his mind.

But now I can't take care of it.

There are only one thousand county soldiers in the city.

All the troops were stationed on the river and blocked the river for him.

"Pass my military order, all the county soldiers rush to the west city immediately, and immediately take my token to meet Captain Yu An outside the city, and order Captain Yu An to lead the army back for reinforcements immediately!" Yuan Xu returned, picked up a sword, Let people put on armor for him, and at the same time quickly issued military orders.

"promise!"

The county soldiers took orders and turned away.

"Wait!" Yuan Xu stopped the county soldiers: "Order Captain Yu An to lead [-] soldiers to return. The rest will continue to drive the warships and block the rivers and waterways. Be careful not to be underestimated. Beware of anyone rushing through the waterway to the north. !"

"Yes!"

The county soldier took orders here and left quickly.

on the river.

The blue waves are surging, and the river is panting.

It's autumn, and the water level of the river has dropped a lot, but the water flow in this section is always rushing, but the water village built by Yin County here, across the water village, has suppressed a lot of rapids and waves.

"verb: move!"

The Marquis of the Fifth Battalion Scout Song is a handsome young man. He personally drives a small boat to approach this water village quietly under the cover of night. The little scorpion returned and reported to the chief general Zhang Liao: "Report to General Zhonglang, there is movement in the water village ahead!"

"It seems that the tactic of attacking east and west has worked!"

Zhang Liao breathed a sigh of relief, stood on the deck, and looked ahead: "Lin Meng, you have done a good job, continue to check their movements, see how many soldiers they have moved ashore, and drain the various water streams in the water village. If the road is clear, I want to be the clearest!"

"promise!"

Marquis Lin Meng was born as a water bandit. He was captured by Zhang Liao himself and surrendered to the Jingping Second Army. He is familiar with water skills, can hide his breath in water, and has extraordinary martial arts skills. Zhang Liao personally appointed him as the scout of the fifth battalion, Qu Junhou .

Lin Meng searched back and forth several times, and half an hour later, when he got the news, he handed over his hand and reported: "General Zhonglang, fifteen to two thousand soldiers have been sent ashore from the water village in front, and they are estimated to be in the water village. , there are still about a thousand soldiers at least, and the front and rear gates of the water village are blocked, and their warships are also driving, and they have already laid across the water outlets!"

"Being vigilant?" Zhang Liao narrowed his eyes slightly, which was beyond his expectation.

It seems that he underestimated the chief general of Yin County, so he could hold his breath, and when he transferred his troops back to the defense, he still had the defensive power of the water village, which made him embarrassed.

Now that the arrow is on the string, it has to be launched.

but……

Their water army may not be able to rush over. After all, the water fortress in front is a solid water fortress, and there are more than a thousand soldiers on guard. His fifth battalion involves water warfare and only has experience in fighting water bandits. The regular army has never fought. .

"How's the situation?" Mu Jing rubbed his eyes from the cabin.

He was not as energetic as Zhang Liao. While waiting, he went back to the cabin and squinted for a while, only to wake up when he heard the movement outside, and hurried to ask about the situation.

"My lord, we are in trouble!"

Zhang Liao explained the matter in detail, with a slightly bitter expression on his face: "I underestimated the chief general of Yin County. Although he did send troops back to Yin County for defense, he also left troops on the river, so we couldn't take advantage of it." The night passed quietly, and I underestimated their water village, the water village in front, the preliminary investigation, is as solid as a rock, if we attack by force, we don't have much confidence, now we are in a dilemma!"

"Meeting on narrow roads, the brave wins!"

Mu Jing was silent for a while, and said: "It's a dilemma, always advance and never retreat. If you have no choice, then make a choice. How can the navy rule the roost in the water without going to war? Since they want to stop us, then we have Before dealing with the Jingzhou navy, fight them first!"

There was a fighting spirit in his firm eyes, and he shouted angrily: "Fight!"

"promise!"

Zhang Liao's confidence suddenly rose. What Mu Jing said was right. Before a dilemma, they would always advance rather than retreat. Regardless of the odds of winning, they must rush over.

After a quarter of an hour.

The Fifth Battalion of the Jingping Second Army gathered all the warships that went south this time, twelve battleships, plus a full 26 warships, and appeared in the shape of a character on the west river of the water village. Under the panting river, he accelerated his speed, and like an arrow, he rushed towards the water village in front of him.

"What's that?" On the observation platform of Shuizhai, two Nanyang soldiers looked carefully at their positions. One of them widened his eyes, watching the shadow appearing in the river to the west, his pupils suddenly changed color, suddenly He shouted loudly: "It's the enemy, the enemy...attack!"

When he yelled the last word, he was silent, because he had been pierced through his throat by a sharp arrow and died on the spot.

"Enemy attack!"

The comrade-in-arms next to him yelled out in horror, and the sound waves were so loud that they caused commotion in the entire water village.

"Enemy attack?"

"Assemble the warships!"

"Go to the high platform!"

"Archer, counterattack!"

The water village has been alarmed, and these soldiers quickly moved.

"Boys, this is the first water battle of our Jingping Second Army. We are a navy army. If we want to rule the roost in the water, we must win this battle. All warships, listen to my orders!"

Standing on the deck, Zhang Liao shouted angrily, "Rush in!"

"Rush in!"

"Rush in!"

The raid has already started, there is no need to hide, one by one the sailors lit the torches, under the light of the torches, the front was reflected, and the warships moved suddenly one after another. And rushing, the speed is accelerated, the momentum is strong, and it is like entering the land of no one.
