The Three Kingdoms of the Lu family

The soldiers were swift, and just after setting up camp on the river bank and leaving Shen Yi to guard the rear, Lu Yi immediately ordered the army to advance along the Jingzhou land road towards Padong.

Before that, Chen Gong had already sent spies to investigate Badong.In addition, Zhang Song's topographic map and the description of Peng Yi are added.Lu Yi already knew that after passing Zigui, Jianping was in front of him.

In the front, it is Wu County, and after Wu County, it is Yufu.This is the junction of Jingzhou and Yizhou, and Yufu is the gateway of Yizhou.Here, Liu Zhang deployed heavy troops.

There are 1 people, of which [-] are stationed in the city, and [-] are stationed in the river next to Wu County. The Wu Gorge forms a water village, which is the most important area for defending the Jingzhou navy.

It is also an important area where the Bingzhou Army must break through to control the upper reaches of the Yangtze River.

Ever since entering Jianping, Lu Yi did not move forward, but set up camp here, and by the way, called the counselors accompanying the army to discuss the military situation.

This time, except for Yan Pu who stayed in Hanzhong to assist Zang Ba Ji Ling in defense, Lu Yi brought out all the other advisers.Peng Yi even sat high on Lu Yi's side, explaining the situation in Padang.

Before setting off, Lu Yi specially ordered people to draw a huge map of Yizhou according to Zhang Song's topographic map, and at this time also ordered people to hang it in the center of the military tent.

Peng Yi pointed to the easternmost point on the map, and said loudly: "Please look, my lord, this is Jianping where we are located, which is the buffer zone between Yizhou and Jingzhou. Fifty miles ahead is Wuxia. If we want to The quickest way to pass here is to send out the navy and break the water village in Yizhou!" [

Lu Yi nodded, and his eyes followed Peng Yang's fingers as he continued to move on the map.His face was not as relaxed as Peng Yang said.

He found that although Wu County was some distance away from Yufu, it was only about twenty miles away, and there were [-] defenders there.

Once Wu Gorge's Yizhou navy can't hold on, it will alarm Yufu's defenders, and the Bingzhou army will not be so easy to capture Yufu.

"Military advisers, do you have any way to allow me to quickly break through the Yizhou navy in Wu Gorge without disturbing Yufu's defenders?" Lu Yi looked at Jia Xu and the others and asked.

His words made Jia Xu, Liu Ye and others fall into deep thought.Liu Ye gave a wry smile, pointed to himself and said, "My lord, we are still too unfamiliar with water warfare. In my opinion, General Gan, the commander of the water army, is well-versed in strategy and familiar with Yizhou. Why don't we What about General Gan?"

"Yup!"

Lu Yi's eyes lit up, and he scolded himself for being negligent, he almost forgot that Gan Ning was the first general of Yizhou, and there is no one who is more familiar with Badong than him.

In a hurry, he sent someone to find Gan Ning.

"Master, you are looking for me"

Not long after, the sound of heavy footsteps came from outside the tent, and then the curtain was lifted, and Gan Ning hurried in with a leg of mud and wearing fish scale soft armor.

Lu Yi immediately smiled, and then remembered that Gan Ning was setting up a water village by the Yangtze River.So he smiled and asked a few words about the situation of the navy, and then asked Gan Ning to take a seat, just asking: "Xingba, now I want to capture Wu Gorge in a battle, but I can't let Yufu's defenders get the news. Know you can do it?"

Gan Ning smiled proudly when he heard the words, clasped his fists heavily at Lu Yi, and said loudly, "My lord, if you don't tell me, the last general is also begging for your orders. Although Yizhou's navy is weak, Wu Gorge is a natural danger. If you advance slowly, Yizhou soldiers will stick to it, and it will be difficult to break through in a hurry!"

"The last general intends to pretend to be a water thief, first to lure the Yizhou navy to come out to encircle and suppress, and then to break through Wu County in one fell swoop, and then invite the Lord to lead the cavalry to advance by land to cut off the connection between Wu County and Yufu. Win!"

Hearing Gan Ning's words, Lu Yi frowned immediately, and asked with some hesitation: "Xingba wants to pretend to be a water thief? If so, wouldn't it be a warning to the enemy and Yufu's defenders, and the defender Wu Lan would not tolerate it." Look down!"

That's right, Yu Fu's defender is Wu Lan.He is also a well-known military general in Bashu, and he is also brave in battle. He was sent by Liu Zhang to guard Yufu and guard against Jingzhou. , [

It was precisely because Lu Yi had some scruples about Wu Lan that he was afraid of alarming him and increasing Wu Gorge's defenses, so he hesitated.I feel that Gan Ning's plan is a bit risky.

Gan Ning also frowned, and said uncertainly: "If it's just a small group of naval raids, Wu County may not report to Wu Lan." But he can't be sure, Wu Lan really won't send troops.

Seeing this, Lu Yi could only shake his head. What he wanted was to catch the enemy by surprise, but he didn't want Gan Ning to fight the Yizhou navy for a long time.

After all, Gan Ning's navy was only 5000 people, and it was the key to his control of the upper reaches of the Yangtze River, and he could not tolerate too much loss.Besides, it's not safe for Gan Ning to pretend to be a water thief and risk himself.

So, what to do.

Lu Yi felt a slight headache. There are many great talents around him, but when it comes to water warfare, everyone has no experience. What good methods can they come up with in a short time? ,

It would be great if we could enter the water village and fight again!

and many more!

Enter the water village?

Lu Yi suddenly remembered something, and there was a smile on his face. He clapped his hands, broke the silence in the military tent, and said with a smile: "Everyone, there is a way to take Wu County quickly. , and make Wu Lan unaware!",

"Oh, what's the idea, my lord? Please enlighten me!" Gan Ning was frowning, thinking hard about a plan, and when he heard that Lu Yi had a plan, he lifted his spirits and couldn't wait to ask.

Gan Ning's idea is also very good, since he is the only general here, no matter what the plan is, let's talk about it first. ,

Lu Yi also knew Gan Ning quite a bit. He knew that there were not many opportunities for the navy to go to battle, which always made Gan Ning a little depressed. It just so happened that his plan this time was also due to Gan Ning. He immediately smiled and let Gan Ning listen to him. Said a few words in a low voice.

Gan Ning was overjoyed when he heard the words, excitedly beat the mercury-like breastplate, and said loudly: "Don't worry, my lord, leave this matter to me!"

Lu Yi also laughed, nodded and said: "I believe that Xingba will definitely be able to do it, but just in case, I will bring a few generals with you, which can be regarded as accumulating some experience in water warfare."

"The Bingzhou navy will never disappoint the lord!" Gan Ning was overjoyed to hear that Lu Yi would also go with him. In the Bingzhou army, Zhang Liao and others often boasted about fighting side by side with Lu Yi.

Gan Ning has long been envious.Seeing that Lu Yi was going to participate in the water battle at this time, he became even more excited, saluted Lu Yi, and rushed out to get ready.

Lu Yi also hurriedly sent someone to notify Zhang Liao, asking him to lead the cavalry to cut off the connection between Yufu and Wu County by land first, and then he led Zhao Yun and Zhang Xiu to join Gan Ning.

Gao Shun was in charge of commanding the infantry, and slowly pushed up behind him.Of course, Jia Xu and Liu Ye still had some complaints about Lu Yi's move to go to the battlefield in person, and even persuaded Gan Ning after he left.

However, Lu Yi just said loudly: "This general's martial arts are not inferior to those of the generals. Once Jinkou is opened, how can I change it day and night?"

Jia Xu and Liu Ye shut up immediately, but at Xu Shu's suggestion, they took away Gao Shun's fighters. At this time, the size of the fighters had slightly expanded, reaching 1000 people.

This is because Gao Shun searched through the entire army and managed to come up with a whole number.But their combat power is undoubtedly extremely strong, land warfare, horse warfare. , Water Battle, are all the top group of people in the army!

Gan Ning's actions were quick, the military order was only issued in the morning, and at noon, fifty merchant ships had already gathered at the water's edge, flying the flag of Yizhou.

One thousand trapped soldiers, plus 2000 soldiers who were good at fighting in the navy, all hid in the cabin, and Gan Ning's [-] bell soldiers were disguised as boatmen.

After everything was ready, Lu Yi took Peng Yi, boarded the merchant ship, and then, in the farewell of many soldiers, sailed into the Yangtze River, meandering all the way, upstream, entered Wu Gorge, and went straight to Wu County.

On the way, the army did not encounter any interception, not even a spies.There has been no war in Badong for a long time. Even the last time the Jingzhou army gathered, it was proved to be a bluff afterwards.

The Yizhou navy has always been ignored, and they are all nested in the water village.Not even basic inspections.

This made it more convenient for the Bingzhou army to march. In the end, Lu Yi simply let Gan Ning drive with all his strength.Quickly approached the water village of Yizhou soldiers.

It wasn't until this time that the three thousand Yizhou navy in the water fortress realized something was wrong. The guard hurriedly dispatched a small boat, and he was relieved when he saw that the merchant ship was carrying the banner of a Yizhou merchant.

But the guard was still very cautious, sent someone to stop the merchant ship, and said loudly: "The fleet in front has stopped, this is my army's water fortress, you can't get close, leave quickly!"

This guard is still polite, because the banner hanging on it is a famous merchant family in Yizhou.Only then will you be polite.

But Lu Yi's goal was this water village, how could he leave? Immediately, he sent Peng Yi to negotiate with the guard, and even thought of an excuse.

That is to say, the bottom of the ship leaked, and the cargo got wet, and I wanted to borrow a place to dry it!

Peng Yi took the order, and immediately boarded the boat aggressively, and ran over to negotiate with the guard.At first the guard saw that it was Tu Xing who came, and his expression was a little ugly.

But when Peng Yi said his name, the guard became a little terrified. Although Peng Yi was a disciple of Xing, he had a great reputation, otherwise Liu Zhang would not spare his life. ,

On the merchant ship, Lu Yi just saw the water surface in the distance, and Peng Yi had a heated argument with the guard, and there was no movement for a long time, and he couldn't help but feel a little uncertain.

This strategy was inspired by Lu Meng crossing the river in white clothes. If it fails, it will be shameful, even though all he knows are his confidants.

It's still light on the bottom.

"My lord, why has Mr. Peng been gone for so long? If we attack immediately, there is still a possibility of rushing in!" Gan Ning approached Lu Yi and said in a low voice.

"Okay, let everyone prepare first! If you can't get close, then attack!"

Lu Yi agreed to Gan Ning's suggestion and asked him to secretly notify the soldiers to prepare, and the merchant ships also began to communicate with each other using semaphore.

And at this time, Peng Yang's boat also came back. ,

Seeing Peng Yi happily returning to the merchant ship, he cupped his hands and said, "My lord, I am lucky enough to live up to my fate. The guard has already agreed to let us enter the village to clean up the goods, but we need a hundred gold!"

"One hundred gold, this person has a big appetite!" Hearing this, Lu Yi immediately sneered, but he was also relieved in his heart.

Being able to enter the water village before attacking is undoubtedly a considerable advantage.

Immediately, Lu Yi sent people to agree to the guard's conditions, and then ordered all fifty merchant ships to enter the water village.The defenders who already have a water village have cleared a water area for merchant ships to berth.

The guard personally led dozens of troops, stood on the shore, looked at Lu Yi who got off the boat and said with a sly smile: "Stop, the general only allowed you to enter, but he didn't know that you still have weapons, so the price must be added one more." A hundred gold!"

"General, how can you do this, we have agreed!" Peng Yi's face was a little ugly, and he jumped off the boat and was about to argue.

"slow!"

Lu Yi stopped him, looked at the guard indifferently, and said in a deep voice: "Two hundred gold, I hope you will not change again!"

"It's still the steward who is happy! You know, the brothers let you in, and you are taking a lot of risks. If General Wu finds out, we will all be beaten with military sticks! 250 gold, that's all!"

Seeing that Lu Yi was easy to talk, the guard narrowed his eyes and raised the price again, and the eyes of the surrounding soldiers also glowed green, feeling that they had made a fortune.

A murderous intent flashed in Lu Yi's eyes, but his face was full of smiles. He walked up to the guard and said with a smile, "Do you really want 250 gold? Well then, go ahead!"

Taking advantage of the guard's attention being distracted, Lu Yi raised his right fist and slammed it on the guard's head.The surrounding soldiers heard a loud crash, and then their general's head was smashed to pieces, red and white things splashed everywhere. ,

"Ah, he killed the general, killed him, avenged the general!"

"Then hit him and tear him into pieces!"

Many Yizhou soldiers were startled by this bloody scene, but there were also many school lieutenants who immediately realized something was wrong, and roared angrily, drew out their swords and rushed towards Lu Yi.

Others are gathering soldiers to trap merchant ships.

But soon, these Yizhou soldiers who rushed over immediately exclaimed, and at the same time as Lu Yi started, the boatmen on the merchant ship took out their hidden swords one after another, roaring and killing everyone.

Immediately, the fighters who heard the movement rushed out of the merchant ship one after another. Without anyone's orders, they formed an army formation automatically. With a loud roar, the steel guns in their hands trembled. There were many people there, so they went to kill there. .

"No, it's an enemy attack, it's an enemy attack! Hurry up and inform General Wu Lan!"

"Brothers, hold on, fight with them!"

Seeing groups of soldiers appearing, the rest of the Yizhou navy guards all exclaimed, and then reacted quickly, wanting to call the soldiers to resist.

"Kill those guards first!" Lu Yi shouted loudly as he kicked an enemy soldier flying towards him.But he soon found that his reminder was completely in vain.

Zhang Xiu, Gan Ning and the others had been yelling for a long time, and turned to those guards to shoot, they had already killed several times, Zhao Yun also kept silent, only focused on rushing forward, but he also ended up with two Yizhou captains.

Only Lu Yi was unlucky, there was not a school lieutenant in the direction of his killing, they were all rebels, after killing for a while, he could only retreat depressedly.Just watch the generals fight.

By the way, protect Peng Yi as well.

Although Peng Yi was also tall and tall, he was a scribe who didn't know martial arts, and the battle of the Bingzhou army was bloody. After watching it for a while, his face turned pale, but because Lu Yi was right in front of him, he was still holding on.

"Sir, I can't take it anymore, so let's go back to the boat for now!" Lu Yi glanced at Peng Yi, and said with a smile, but at this time his body was covered in blood, and his smile was a bit sinister.

Peng Yi only felt that his calves were weak. Although he was ashamed of his performance, he hurried back to the boat, not daring to look at the tragic scene below.

One thousand trap soldiers, eight hundred bell soldiers, plus the rest of the elite navy, against the [-] weak Yizhou navy, it was like a massacre.

In particular, there are three fierce generals, Zhao Yun, Gan Ning and Zhang Xiu, taking the lead.But half an hour later, the Wuxia Water Village was already filled with the corpses of more than [-] Yizhou soldiers.It turned out that there was not even a prisoner left behind,

Only a few hundred people fled back to Wu county in a hurry.

This not only made Lu Yi shake his head and smile wryly, it seemed that in Hanzhong, this group of elite soldiers was really depressed.

When he heard that the battle was over, Peng Yi, who had just got off the boat, turned even paler.Lu Yi could only give a wry smile, and didn't have time to worry about Peng Yi's feelings, so he hurriedly left Gan Ning to stay at the water village, and then the army moved forward all the way, continuing to march towards Wu County...
