The supply fleet of Jiang Xia Army has a total of 120 ships, mainly cargo ships of five hundred shi, and dozens of warships of thousand shi. and other supplies.

This is because Huang Zhong's army marched lightly, and the food and grass needed by the army were transported by warships. This is a method of marching in separate lanes and then converging.

The risks involved are great. Once the fleet is intercepted by the Jiangdong Army, not only will the logistics supply fail, but the survival of Huang Zhong's army will also be threatened.

However, relying on their familiarity with the hydrology and geography of the Yangtze River, Jiang Xia's army marched along the north bank of the Yangtze River at night, successfully avoiding the patrols of the Jiangdong Army, and finally arrived at Songze Lake. [

In addition to transporting a large amount of food and other materials, this supply fleet has only 1000 guards. The main commander is Lou Fa. Lou Fa was also one of Gan Ning's right-hand men back then, and he was second only to Shen Mi in the Jiangxia Army. , the current Sima of the other department of the Navy.

He led the fleet to Songze Town yesterday. According to the plan, it should be anchored on the lake of Songze Town so that Huang Zhong's army could find it. He became nervous and ordered the fleet to hide in a bay in the east of the town. At this moment, Zhao Yun finally led the army to find the supply fleet.

As the sky gradually dawned, Huang Zhong's army also rushed to Zhendong to meet Zhao Yun. Lou Fa had been waiting on the shore for a long time. Old General!"

Huang Zhong dismounted from his horse, helped Lou up and said with a smile, "General Lou doesn't need to be too polite. General Lou's timely arrival will be a great contribution to defeating the Jiangdong Army."

After a pause, Huang Zhong asked again: "I heard from Zilong that General Lou found out about the situation. I'm very interested. Can you tell me more about it?"

"General Huang, please board the ship, I will report in detail!"

Huang Zhong followed Lou Fa and walked towards the big ship. He saw hundreds of cargo ships moored on the water, loaded with food, military equipment and other supplies.

Huang Zhong sighed, and walked quickly into the cabin. Zhao Yun also came in at this time, and everyone sat down in the cabin. Lou Fa said to the two of them: "This incident is indeed a bit strange. It happened at noon two days ago. We accidentally captured a Jiangdong army sentry ship on the river entering Songze Lake. At first we thought it was a ship following us, but after interrogation we found out that they had a special mission."

Speaking of this, Lou Fa took out a letter and handed it to Huang Zhong, "This is a letter found from the enemy army. It turned out to be a letter written by Sun Quan to Cheng Pu. General Huang please read it."

Huang Zhong quickly took the letter, read it hastily, and the content was clearly written in his mind. Sun Quan ordered Cheng Pu to abandon Qichun County and prepare to sail south to Chaisang to meet up. He will soon send a fleet to pick up Cheng Pu's army.

Huang Zhong was very excited. This is extremely important information. He handed the letter to Zhao Yun and asked, "I want to know about the situation of the receiving fleet. Can General Lou tell me?"

Lou Fa apologized: "I don't know much about this information, and I don't know about the patrols I caught, but I have sent several sentry ships to the direction of the Yangtze River to investigate the news. Once I find something, I will immediately notify the old general."

As soon as the words fell, there was a rush of footsteps outside, and a soldier hurriedly reported: "General Lou, the sentry ship has returned and found the enemy's situation."

It was God's will. They just talked about this when the news came. The three of them stood up and walked quickly to the outside of the cabin.

A Baishi sentry ship was slowly approaching the big ship. On board were three scouts sent to investigate the news. They climbed on the big ship and led the soldiers to report: "General Lou, a Jiangdong fleet has been found in the Yangtze River. More than two hundred thousand stone warships have sailed into Songze Lake and are heading towards us."

Huang Zhong and Zhao Yun glanced at each other, and they realized almost at the same time that this must be the Jiangdong Fleet coming to pick up Cheng Pujun. Zhao Yun asked: "Can you roughly estimate how far the fleet is from us and how long it will take to get here?"

The leader of the scouts thought for a while and said, "It is estimated that there are still sixty miles left, and we will reach Songze Town before noon at the latest."

Zhao Yun looked at Huang Zhong again, the meaning in his eyes was very clear, this is an opportunity, why not seize this opportunity? "

Huang Zhong pondered for a long time, and said to Lou Fa: "I need a map!" [

"There is a map in the cabin, General Huang, please come with me."

Everyone went back to the cabin. Lou Fa took out a map and spread it out on the table. This was the map of Lujiang County and Qichun County. Of course Huang Zhong also had it, and he was very familiar with this map.

He tapped a river west of Songze Town with his finger, "This is the river. We passed by this morning. This river leads directly to Wan County. The ships from the east of the river should go along this river to Wan County to meet Cheng Pu's army. "

"But I heard that the upper reaches of this river are very narrow, and even a five-hundred-stone boat can't pass through it. Only small boats can be used, and a thousand-stone boat can only travel ten miles along the river, and then it can't turn around."

Huang Zhong was taken aback. If this was the case, the Jiangdong Army fleet would most likely stop at Songze Town. Is it more of an opportunity?"

Huang Zhong understood what Zhao Yun meant, and he also laughed, "Zilong is right, our goal is not this fleet, but to use this fleet to annihilate Cheng Pu's army."

Zhao Yun thought for a while and said: "But I guess our whereabouts cannot be hidden from the Jiangdong Fleet."

Huang Zhong knew the people in Songze Town that Zhao Yun was referring to, so he couldn't help laughing, "It doesn't matter if you can't hide it from the fleet, as long as you hide it from the general process, it's at least 150 miles from here to Wan County. I don't think they got news so fast. .”

At this time, Lou Fa was even more worried about time. They unloaded a batch of grain and had to evacuate before the arrival of the Jiangdong warship. .”

Huang Zhong pondered for a moment, then resolutely knocked heavily on the table, "That's the decision!"

The Jiangdong fleet from Chaisang was sent by Sun Quan to meet Cheng Pu's army, led by general Lu Meng. Lu Meng himself brought only a small number of troops, only 2000 people, most of which were empty ships.

After three days of sailing, in the afternoon, the fleet gradually arrived at the final destination, Songze Town. This is the northernmost part of Songze Lake. The water is deep and the shore is gentle, which is very suitable for soldiers to board the ship on a large scale.

At the bow of a large ship in the front, Lu Meng was watching the lake, his brows were furrowed, and his eyes were a bit "confused", at this moment, the deputy general Zhang Ji stepped forward and asked: "General Lu found something wrong? "

"I'm just a little weird!"

Lu Meng said slowly: "Why can't I see a single fishing boat on the lake? Logically, Songze Town is a fishing town. In this fishing season, there should be many fishing boats on the lake, but I can't see it."

"Night-frightened bird, is this what General Lu means?"

Lu Meng nodded, "I'm really worried. Liu has sent troops to Qichun. He will never let our troops withdraw so easily. We should be extremely cautious."

"It's better to go to the town to check it out. If there are any traces of the enemy, there must be news in the town."

"Go! Be careful."

Zhang Ji waved his hand, and took dozens of his men and sailed towards Songze in several small boats. After a while, a boat hurried back, and the soldiers shouted under the big boat: "General Lu!"

Lu Meng leaned forward and asked, "What's the matter?"

"General Zhang got the news that a fleet of ships has been moored in the lake bay to the west in the past two days. Not long after they left, an army passed by the town early this morning." [

Lv Meng was startled, this was what he was most worried about, the more he was worried, but he happened to encounter it, Lv Meng was also a person who was familiar with the art of war, he knew very well that he should not act rashly before he knew the enemy's situation, Cheng Pu's army was stationed It may be fine in Wanxian County, but once it is transferred blindly, it is likely to create opportunities for the enemy.

Lu Meng remembered that Marquis Wu had sent someone to deliver a letter to Cheng Pu, and he became even more worried. He immediately turned to a soldier and said, "Take a few people to Wan County and tell General Cheng that the enemy army has arrived, so don't act rashly."

The personal soldiers led away, and Lu Meng watched several soldiers riding away. He was full of worries. The strategy of Marquis Wu ordering the army to retreat to Chaisang was not wrong. Qichun County lost its strategic significance. Chaisang.

However, Lu Meng has always believed that Wuhou's westward expedition is not wise. If he does not have an absolute advantage, it will not be worth the loss. The biggest disadvantage of the Jiangdong Army is that it cannot afford time.

Thinking of this, Lu Meng couldn't help but sighed in a low voice.

There is only a narrow path from Songze Town to Wan County, close to the small river, with very few pedestrians, the path is full of weeds, and on the other side is a stretch of woods.

Several cavalrymen galloped along the path, and after an hour, they were dozens of miles away from Songze Town. Suddenly, a cavalryman pointed forward and shouted, and saw several big trees juxtaposed across the road in front, blocking the way .

The three cavalry quickly grabbed the reins and looked around in horror. It was clear that several big trees had just been felled. Who did this?

At this moment, more than a dozen arrows were shot out from the woods, and they hit the horses of the three men. The two horses hissed and fell to the ground. He fled, but within five steps, a few arrows roared and hit the cavalry in the back. The cavalry screamed and fell from the horse.

At this time, a group of cavalry rushed out from the woods. There were more than a hundred people. They rushed forward and knocked down the two cavalrymen who missed the arrow.

This is a team of Jiangxia Patrol Army at the rear. The main force of Jiangxia Army is twenty miles ahead of the other side of the river. The patrol army has already spotted these three cavalry and set up an ambush to intercept them.

A soldier found Lv Meng's command arrow and handed it to the head of the village, "I found this on him!"

The head of the village looked at Lingjian, and it turned out to be Lu Meng's Lingjian. He immediately realized that these people were very important, and immediately said to everyone: "Let's go and report to the old general!"
