The Three Kingdoms of the Lu family

The army marched all the way down the river, but within five days, they passed the mountains and entered the boundary of Xicheng.At this time, Huang She, who had already led the troops stationed in Xicheng, heard the news, and immediately led his troops to set up a camp along the coast to prevent the Bingzhou army from coming ashore.

Huang Zu, who was stationed in the water village, also dispatched a water army to attack Gan Ning's water army again.Although the Jingzhou navy at this time is still afraid of the warship that can breathe fire.

But it was not as shocking as it was at the beginning. They all held their ground. When Lu Yi came over, the two sides had already fought several water battles, winning and losing.

It wasn't until he heard Lu Yi's army approaching that Huang Zu retreated to Fangling Water Village again.Can't hold on.Lu Yi did not send Gan Ning to attack again.

Not to mention that the land of Fangling is the barrier of Xiangyang, Liu Biao's defense is tight, even relying on Huang Zu's dozens of excellent buildings, Lu Yi does not want his navy to go up to die in vain.

After all, his current navy is too small, and every death means one less. What surprised Lu Yi was that after these few days of fighting, Gan Ning also captured three large boats.

This had to make Lu Yi slightly surprised.

The current Bingzhou navy not only has dozens of warships, but also three large boats. The scale is not large, and it can be regarded as a force that cannot be ignored on the Han River.

Especially the chief general Gan Ning, who fought several times and charged forward, his reputation shocked the Jingzhou navy, so that Huang Zu could only specialize in attacking and defending. [

Lu Yi couldn't help feeling emotional again, he boarded Gan Ning's big boat, held his arm and said, "It's all thanks to the strength of Xingba and General Su that I was able to come to Xicheng safely!"

Gan Ning laughed at himself when he heard the words, shook his head and said: "Your Majesty, the award is wrong, I only hate that our army's warships are still too few, if I have a hundred warships, ten large ships, let alone Huang Zu's ten thousand navy, Even if the Jingzhou [-] sailors come together, I will not be afraid!"

"Hahaha! Xingba is really heroic, don't worry, when I return to Hanzhong this time, I will let the craftsman battalion go all out to build warships, so that Xingba's navy can truly dominate the Yangtze River!" Lu Yi was also infected by Gan Ning's pride , patted Gan Ning on the shoulder, and burst out laughing.

Gan Ning also laughed out loud, but then, he frowned slightly, and said in a deep voice: "My lord, although Huang Zu has been defeated, his main force has not been damaged. The west city is quite dangerous, and Huang Zu is even more dangerous. Shoot tens of thousands of people among them, and if we attack by force, our army will suffer huge losses!"

Lu Yi nodded, he was also worried about this matter, according to the Bingzhou Army currently has more than 1 soldiers and horses, but [-] are in Yangping, [-] are in Nanzheng, and there are [-] more, which need to be stationed in various garrisons. Only [-] people could really be mobilized, plus Gan Ning's navy.

With such a few people, if there is a strong attack, the loss must be huge.

"I don't know if Xingba has a strategy to defeat the enemy?" Lu Yi looked at Gan Ning. Unlike other fierce generals, Gan Ning was not only very brave in martial arts, but also good in strategy.Being familiar with the situation in Jingzhou, he naturally hoped that Gan Ning could give him a good suggestion.

Gan Ning was also waiting for Lu Yi to ask a question, and immediately pondered for a while, pointing to the Huangshe barracks along the Han River, and said, "Look, my lord, there are mountains behind the west city, which is not conducive to the army's attack, only here, the terrain is flat, However, we are controlled by Huang She, if we try to cross by force, Huang She will defend us with bows and arrows, this method is not advisable!"

Lu Yi nodded when he heard the words, and attacked halfway. This is the best way to defend. How could Huang She not know? Even if Huang She didn't know, Huang Chengyan in the barracks would definitely remind Huang She.Gan Ning's words spoke to his heart.

Involuntarily, Lu Yi had more confidence in Gan Ning, and asked: "Since this place cannot be crossed by force, according to Xingba's view, where should we cross the river?"

Gan Ning smiled, a trace of confidence flashed across his face, and said in a deep voice: "My lord, why should we be stubborn in the west city, not far ahead is Shangyong, why don't we attack Shangyong, as long as Shangyong is here , the west city is an isolated city, it will collapse without a fight!"

Lu Yi's eyes lit up. Gan Ning's method is undoubtedly quite bold. If Shangyong is captured, Xicheng will be sandwiched between Hanzhong and Shangyong by Jijia, completely cutting off the land connection with Jingzhou. Escape by water, otherwise you will be trapped here to death.

But this is also quite dangerous. After all, Huang She still has thousands of sailors stationed in Fangling. If he wants to attack Shangyong, he must block Huang Zu and prevent him from getting out of the water village. This will test Gan The combat capability of the Ningshui army has improved!

Once Gan Ningfa blocked Huang Zu, his army would have to cross mountains and ridges if they wanted to return to Hanzhong, and they would be attacked by the west city along the way, and they would suffer heavy losses.

Now, what the hell to do?Lu Yi hesitated for a moment, and then made a decision, soldiers are deceitful!Even if he is in the middle distance, he is still at a disadvantage in terms of strength. In this case, why not give it a go. [

Besides, he doesn't have to attack Shangyong by force, he can completely surround the points and force Huang She to fight him. Anyway, it is the Bingzhou Army that occupies Hanshui now, so he can advance and retreat calmly.

Most importantly, Lu Yi has confidence in Gan Ning's water battle!

Thinking of this, Lu Yi nodded towards Gan Ning, and said in a deep voice: "Xingba. If that's the case, the task of blocking Huang Zu is left to you! Before I came, Hanzhong made three thunder chariots. I I'll give you another one! You must block Huang Zu to death!"

"My lord, don't worry, as long as a certain family is still alive, Huang Zu will never be allowed to step out of Fangling!" Seeing Lu Yi accepting his opinion, Gan Ning was overjoyed, his heart was filled with pride, and he promised loudly.

Lu Yi nodded, and after discussing the plan to attack Shangyong with Gan Ning for a while, he immediately ordered the whole army to bypass the west city and go straight to Shangyong.

On the bank of the river, the spy who was in charge of monitoring the actions of the Bingzhou Army was suddenly shocked, and hurried into Huang She's barracks to report the news.

"What, Lu thief went to attack Shangyong!" Inside the barracks.Huang She was shocked when he heard the news, just like Lu Yi couldn't draw out too many troops, in Jingzhou, Liu Biao's defensive center of gravity was completely in the Jiangling area, and he was always ready to deal with Sun Ce, plus he had to defend Xiangyang, so he couldn't draw out many soldiers. horse.

At this time, Huang She was faced with a difficult problem, either withdrawing troops and defending Shangyong, or defending Xicheng, contacting Huang Zu to attack Gan Ning, and regaining control of Hanshui.

But when he thought that the opponent was Gan Ning, Huang She felt a little uncertain. Although in Jiangxia, Huang's father and son had been belittling Gan Ning's ability, they knew Gan Ning's ability best in their hearts.

Relying on Gan Ning's terrifying ability to run across the Yangtze River when he was a Jinfan bandit, Huang She didn't think he was Gan Ning's opponent, especially now that Huang Zu was still blocked in Fangling and dared not come out to fight.

Immediately, Huang She decided to withdraw his troops immediately and return to save Shangyong!His order was conveyed very quickly. Jingzhou soldiers became anxious when they heard that their rear might be blocked. They all packed up and saluted, preparing to withdraw their troops.

Inside the barracks, Huang Chengyan jumped angrily, leaning on his crutches and scolded: "This Lu's boy, his eyes are too poisonous, who would have thought that a little Jinfan thief would be so powerful in water warfare! "

Xu Shu also gave a wry smile, and sighed, "Jingzhou has its own heroes, but Liu Jingzhou doesn't know how to employ them! Lu Yi, on the other hand, has a good sense of people..."

Xu Shu couldn't continue with the next words, because Huang Chengyan's face was already ashen, like the donkey beside him.

Xu Shu hurriedly said haha, and left quickly on the pretext of going to find Huang She to talk about military affairs.

At this time, on the Han River, Lu Yi's [-] troops also sailed down the river in various boats, heading towards Shangyong.

Huang Zu of Fangling heard what Lu Yi had expected, and indeed he led his people out of the water village, intending to cut off the Bingzhou army's retreat, but the Ganning water army, which had been waiting for a long time, was dispatched immediately.

With the building boat and a Thunderbolt chariot, Gan Ning was even more daring. This time, he not only attacked Huang Zu, but even had the momentum to swallow Fang Ling.

Huang Zu was startled, fearing that Fangling would be lost again, he could only hide in the water village aggrieved, continue to be a turtle, and desperately wrote to Xiangyang, hoping that Liu Biao would send reinforcements again.

But Huang Zu's messenger had still arrived in Xiangyang, on the surface of the Yongshui, Lu Yi's [-] troops had already approached the city!
