Chapter 738

Yi Road.

Yidao is a small city near the water, standing on the edge of the Yangtze River, on the south bank of the Yangtze River.

This is the southernmost line of defense that the Jingzhou Army has deployed in Yiling. If you defend this point, there will be no gaps in Yiling's front line. Once this area is breached, there will be vacancies on the left wing whether it is Yiling or Xiaoting.

Once the left wing becomes a breakthrough point, the Jingzhou army will face a gap that cannot be filled, and because of this, the force of the Jingzhou navy will be weakened.

After all, although the Jingzhou navy is strong, it must exert its greatest force on the Yangtze River waterway. If it loses the Yidao, it will lose the south bank.

No South Bank.

They can only rely on the north bank, and the force that the navy can exert is only half.

So Yiling is very important.

Stationed here is Cai Mao's general, Cai Song.

Cai Song is a member of the Cai clan and a young man trusted by Cai Mao. He practiced martial arts since elementary school, and began to live on a warship at the age of 12. It was Cai Mao who gradually became a captain and took charge of the first battalion.

"What's going on outside?"

Cai Song patrolled the night as usual.

He is a very conscientious general, and he personally patrols the night once a day. Whether it is the waterway in the north or the inevitable city gate, he pays great attention to the defense.

"Report to the captain, nothing has been found!"

Several military marquises answered.

"Keep an eye on it!"

Cai Song said: "We are for the defense of the southern front of the governor. Yi Dao is very important, and there must be no mistakes!"

Cai Mao is now the governor of the Jingzhou Navy. In terms of military power, he is second only to Wenpin.

This was also promoted by Liu Biao in order to reassure him of guarding the southern line.

"promise!"

All the soldiers nodded.

"Report!"

At this time, a scout rushed up: "Report to the captain, there seems to be an enemy outside the city!"

"Sure?"

Cai Song's eyes turned cold.

"An hour ago, our scouts sent out twelve waves, and none of them came back. The only explanation is that the scouts were all killed outside!" said the scout army, clasping his hands.

"Beat the drums, gather soldiers!"

Without further ado, Cai Song went on alert: "Send my military order, the whole city is on alert!"

"Dong Dong Dong!!!!"

The sound of war drums suddenly sounded, shaking the dark void.

outside the city.

"It seems that they have discovered it!" Yan Yan was riding a big horse, raised his head slightly, looked ahead, and sneered slightly at the corner of his mouth: "They are very vigilant!"

"Master Taishou, we won't be able to raid in like this!"

A school lieutenant said softly: "We can only attack by force!"

"A strong attack is a strong attack!"

Yan Yan said: "It's not bad to be able to reach within fifty paces. Even if we are exposed at this time, we still have certain advantages. We can't give them time to prepare. Immediately pass on my military order to attack across the board. I have my own attack, and I will throw all [-] soldiers into it, and attack Yi Dao at any cost!"

His task is to attack Yi Dao by force.

It doesn't matter if it succeeds or not.

But the momentum must be heard.

"promise!"

Eight or nine lieutenants of the Berkshire Army surrendered their orders.

There were a total of [-] Berkshire troops, and they quickly lit the torches they had prepared on their bodies. They raised all the torches one by one at once, and the flames illuminated half of the city, and the red ones pressed towards Yidao City.

"Archer!"

"shoot!"

In the first wave of attack, countless archers shot up to the sky, and the bows and arrows showed an arc trajectory, like a piece of rain, falling into Yidao City in an instant.

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

Yishan, there are many undulating peaks, and one after another mountain streams. In the dark night, only an invisible mountain is reflected, but it is like a lion crawling quietly.

At this time, no one knew that Yizhou's [-] troops had already entered.

The army was divided into several divisions, ten thousand as one, and they were distributed among the mountain streams of Yishan Mountain. They did not dare to start a fire or make a sound. They were like hunters before hunting, patiently waiting for the appearance of their prey.

In the distance, on a hill, a simple camp was built, only the light of an oil lamp was shining, surrounded by elite soldiers guarding.

The body of Yizhou Mu Liu Yan stood on the top of the hill.

He stared at the front, the Yangtze River in front of him, he looked at the surging river, under the surging river, there was a city, Yiling, this city, which seemed to be nailed in place, was his goal.

"Can it be done?"

He asked in a low voice, as if asking himself, but also as if asking the people around him.

Beside him, there are more than a dozen shadows, all of whom are civil servants and military generals have already gone out to lead the army, and only those counselors will be by his side at this time.

"If Liu Shijun doesn't trust me, why bother to ask me!" Xi Zhicai stood beside him in a white robe, and replied calmly: "There is no turning back when you open the bow. Since Liu Shijun has already dispatched troops, at this time, I want to retreat." There is no chance!"

"You have the ability to be the Marquis of Huaiyin with ambition. In terms of military strategy, how can I not trust you!"

Liu Yan took a deep breath, suppressed the uneasiness in his heart, and showed a smile on his face.

Marquis of Huaiyin, that is Han Xin.

That is the famous general with the highest achievements in the history of the Han Dynasty. Even if there are as many famous generals in the Eastern and Western Han Dynasties, they are not so famous, because the establishment of the Han Dynasty did not happen without him.

He compares Xi Zhicai with Han Xin, which is to praise Xi Zhicai.

But it is undeniable that this is also his recognition of Xi Zhicai's ability.

Even if Xi Zhicai made him a partner when he was in Yizhou, he still recognized Xi Zhicai's ability. After all, a person who has the ability to make himself suffer is also a talent, which is why he asked Mujing for Xi Zhicai Only reason.

Xi Zhicai went south, and he hadn't figured out how to deal with him before.

He recognized Xi Zhicai's ability.

But he doubted Xi Zhicai's intentions.

So a little tangled.

But not long after Xi Zhicai arrived, he had a plan and offered him a plan to attack Yiling. He dared to use this plan, because he believed that Yizhou and Hanzhong had the same interests in this matter.

Even if Xi Zhicai has a different intention, he will not have any bad intentions in this matter.

Once the Yizhou Army is defeated, the Hanzhong Army in the north will not be defeated, but may be wiped out.

"It's just that someone is a little worried!"

Liu Yan said softly: "This place of Yiling blocks the advance of my hundreds of thousands of troops. We have attacked countless times in the past few months, but we have never been able to advance half a step. I am afraid it will not be so easy to break through the city!"

His Yizhou army gathered all the soldiers and horses, but he was blocked in Yiling, and it was difficult to advance. This made him very annoyed, and he was a little angry when he thought about it, but the generals under him were really hardworking, but they couldn't break through. This solid defense.

The Jingzhou army is not as strong as them.

However, it took advantage of the right time and place.

Especially on the Yangtze River, the Jingzhou navy is invincible. Their soldiers and horses in Yizhou are not called navy, they can only be called a group of infantry driving a boat.

"Although Yiling is strong, it is not difficult to break it!"

Xi Zhicai calmed his mood with a smile. Of course he knew Liu Yan's haste, otherwise he would not have offered advice. Only after offering advice could he stand in the footsteps of the Yizhou Army. The attacking city has too many offensive aspects. Before they could block it, it was because they defended our offensive surface. Now, we only need to play a trick with them. As long as they make a wrong step, their defense will be destroyed. It will break without attacking!"

"little tricks?"

Huang Quan, one of the counselors next to Liu Yan, narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Xi Zhicai: "Xi Sima is confident!"

"Confidence or not, you will know tonight!"

Xi Zhicai raised the corners of his mouth slightly.

In fact, he is also ten 56 in his heart.

But in front of Liu Yan, you must be confident.

Yiling was not so easy to attack. The Yizhou army had already mobilized 13 main forces. Now he was waiting to see if the Yizhou army could seize the opening in the army line and take Yiling City in one fell swoop.
