I am not an ant thief in the Three Kingdoms

Liu Bei said solemnly: "This last wave of attack is the most dangerous. If I were Lei Gong, I would take advantage of the high morale and seize the opportunity to seize Jiujiang County, Lujiang County, Nanyang County and other places, and push the battle line to the Yangtze River. , to lay the foundation for the next attack on Jiangnan. So now is our most dangerous time, and we will be safe only if we have resisted this attack."

The fall of the territory north of the Yangtze River is not what Liu Bei wants to see, because all the land in the north of the Yangtze River falls, and the natural danger of the Yangtze River is jointly owned by them and Dagan. If it is a general northern regime, the navy is their natural defect, and Liu Bei will not So worried, but Dagan is completely different from other northern regimes. Not only are the cavalry strong and numerous, but there is also an extremely powerful and powerful navy. In terms of combat effectiveness, this navy is not inferior to Liu Bei's hard work. The Jingzhou Navy, which has been in the water for more than 10 years, if the north bank of the Yangtze River falls, the benefit of the Yangtze River is that they will share it with the generals. This is extremely dangerous for Liu Bei.

Yuan Jidao: "Now our army is going to divide our troops to garrison Jiujiang County and Jiangxia County, and the strength of Nanyang County must be reduced. In this way, if our army wants to defend Nanyang County, we must give up some insignificant places, concentrate our forces on Wancheng, and rely on us. The advantage of the army and the navy is to fight the big army!"

And Liu Bei also had the same idea. Soon after the news of Cao Cao's surrender reached Jingzhou, Liu Bei immediately ordered the Nanyang battlefield to shrink the defense line, abandon some unimportant strongholds, and concentrate his forces to defend those places that are easy to defend and difficult to attack.At the same time, Liu Bei dispatched 5 troops from the Nanyang battlefield to support Jiujiang County and Jiangxia County respectively!

At the same time, news of Cao Cao's surrender reached Huang Long and Yang Feng's army.

Yang Feng rejoiced and said: "The entire Central Plains has come into the hands of our Dagan army. Now Liu Bei is the only one left in the whole Han Dynasty. As long as we defeat Liu Bei, the whole world will be my Dagan's world. Huang Tian, ​​a great virtuous teacher The Promised Land can finally be realized in our hands.”

What Yang Feng said was extremely exciting. He was a boy around Zhang Jiao back then. It can be said that he was raised by Zhang Jiao. He was Zhang Jiao's adopted son. Yang Feng also treated Zhang Jiao as his father. Ideal, he naturally wanted to realize it, but before he didn't have the ability to realize Zhang Jiao's ideal, he had given up at first, but he didn't expect that after taking refuge in Xu Wei, the original ideal would actually appear radiant, more than ten years It's time, and the original ideal of the great virtuous teacher will finally be realized in their hands.

But Zhang Baiqi said cautiously: "It's not time to celebrate yet. Liu Bei still has half of the country in his hands, and there are hundreds of thousands of troops resisting us. In the south of the Yangtze River, most of my army's cavalry has been abolished." Yes, in the past few months, although our army has stormed and occupied many places. But our losses are still not small, especially the cavalry, not to mention the huge consumption, and they can't exert their strength at all."

At this time, Zhang Baiqi was most helpless. The cavalry is the sharpest spear in Daqian, but after arriving in Nanyang County, it is completely useless. Liu Bei has suffered a lot from the cavalry over the years. After arriving in Nanyang County, Liu Bei's army either built fortifications on the hillside or garrisoned in the city.

...

Zhang Baiqi had no choice but to keep 5000 cavalry, and the rest of the cavalry was supported by him on the Xuzhou battlefield. Compared with Nanyang County, Xuzhou can exert the power of cavalry more!
Huang Long also said helplessly: "The southern battlefield is completely different from the northern battlefield. I didn't expect that our soldiers did not fall on the battlefield, but fell under the disease. The weather in the south of the Yangtze River is too different from that in the Central Plains. Our army has too many People who are not acclimatized, we have to make more preparations next time. Otherwise, the land in the south of the Yangtze River will not be so easy to fight."

Since the meeting of Yang Feng, Huang Long, and Zhang Baiqi, the army in their hands has exceeded 20, which is nearly double that of Liu Bei. The equipment is superior, and the number of artillery far exceeds that of the Han army. However, the result of the battle here in Nanyang County was not very good. It can even be said that the difficulty was completely beyond their expectations.

Liu Bei established an extremely solid defense system in Nanyang County. Even if they conquered a city, they smashed a fort.But it is difficult to cause great damage to the defense system of Nanyang County.Of course, these are nothing, the big deal is that they use artillery to attack slowly. Competing with logistics, they have always been much stronger than the big guys.

However, the climate in the Jiangnan water town greatly weakened their combat effectiveness, and this was something Zhang Baiqi and the others did not expect.

Originally, Zhang Baiqi thought that attacking Jingzhou in winter was a good strategy. He would not have to experience the rainy season at the turn of spring and summer in the south of the Yangtze River, but he could also avoid the plague in spring and summer.

Most of the soldiers brought by the Dagan Army are from the north, and they must be better than Liu Bei's Jiangnan Army in winter cold resistance, not to mention that they also have clothes made of cold-proof fabrics such as wool cloth. They are always on their side.

But the reality slapped Zhang Baiqi severely. Although the winter in the south of the Yangtze River is not cold, but the water vapor is heavy. Compared with the dry and cold in the north, the wet and cold in the south is even more unbearable. Zhang Bai rode his 20 army to attack During this period in the south of the Yangtze River, it rained for nearly half of the time. The rain was not heavy, but it made it difficult for them to attack Liu Bei.

Moreover, after it rains in winter, the land is difficult to dry and muddy, and every time it rains, there will be a large number of sick soldiers in the army. Under such circumstances, it is obviously extremely difficult for the offensive side, so they Every attack is extremely embarrassing.

After Zhang Baiqi lived here for two months, he had to admit with difficulty that the winter in the south of the Yangtze River is actually colder than that in the north. At first he thought it was an illusion. I have to admit that the winter in the south of the Yangtze River is more difficult than that in the north. Many soldiers can't afford to get sick. It can be said that in the past two months, there are not as many soldiers who fell on the battlefield as the soldiers who were knocked down by the cold wave.

If it weren't for the large number of doctors in the army, and these soldiers were quarantined immediately after they fell ill, Zhang Baiqi was worried that the plague would appear in his army.

Fortunately, the logistics supply is still timely. There are a lot of herbs and doctors in their army to treat these diseases. At the very beginning, the outbreak of the disease was controlled, so that these sick soldiers did not become a plague. This made Zhang Baiqi Fortunately, one must know that a plague broke out in Jingzhou a year ago. If the plague broke out in his army, he would die without redemption.
