The Summoning World of the Great Qin Empire

Chapter 892 The Enemy Came Too Suddenly

Xu Shu sent out scouts in plain clothes to inquire about the news and came back. The scouts thought that Xu Shu had reported the news that the Chu army had been attacking Jiangyang City for four days.

"From Jiangzhou City to Jiangyang City, it only takes one day to reach Jiangzhou City by water, but it takes three days to travel by dry road. Counting the time, Huang Gai and Gan Ning are not in Jiangzhou City. You can take advantage of the time when the two of them are leading the army to attack Jianyang City, to attack Jiangzhou. Most of the people in Jiangzhou are my old troops. If they know that I am leading the army to rescue them, they will definitely respond. In this way, Jiangzhou will be taken , is an easy thing to do.”

Han Yu thought it made sense, so the two of them played against the excited Shu people in the army, and acted as scouts to keep a close eye on the movement of Jiangzhou City. Whenever they saw Jiangzhou City send troops, they would come back and report immediately. When the time came, the army would go south. Then he can cut off the back of these two people in one go.

In a war, no one can claim victory until the final victory is achieved; the balance of the war will change so quickly that no one can really imagine it.

Two days later, the scouts sent by Xu Shu really came back and reported that Huang Gai's army had already rowed out with warships, and they must be heading for Jiangyang City.

Xu Shu immediately climbed up and shouted loudly: "Soldiers, we are waiting to walk in the mountains and forests, biting snakes and insects on our hands, just to win the victory. Now Jiangzhou City is empty, and there are my old troops in the city. If we don't take Jiangzhou City today, When will we wait? Follow Ben to rush out of the mountains and take Jiangzhou!"

"Win!"

"Win!"

"Take Jiangzhou!"

Han Yu also shouted loudly, at this time he does not look like a literati at all, but looks like a Confucian general.

Five thousand troops marched out of the mountain, and within half a day, they had already arrived at the city of Jiangzhou.

The guards on the Jiangzhou city tower saw a group of men approaching, but they didn't know where they were, so they had to order the city gate to be closed, stood on the tower and looked at it, and shouted: "Who is coming?"

The person on the opposite side didn't answer, but saw a general-looking man come out and shouted loudly: "Where are Liu Yan, Sun Chi, and Wu Ju?"

The person who shouted loudly was none other than Xu Shu.

As soon as Xu Shu's words fell, he heard someone shouting loudly from the tower: "Liu Yu is ignorant of current affairs and has been beheaded by General Gan Ning. Sun Chi, Wu Bang and I are now generals of the Chu State. My lord! It's too late!"

It happened that two generals were standing side by side on the tower. After hearing Sun Chi's words, the guard of Chu State heaved a sigh of relief. When he was about to speak, he suddenly felt a piercing pain. It happened that Sun Chi He and Wu Bao pulled out their sabers and stabbed themselves through.

"you--"

Indistinctly, I just heard Wu Jue scolding: "Master Xu treats us with kindness again, the reason why he endured the humiliation is because he knew that Master Xu would kill him!"

As he said that, Wu Hao kicked up and directly kicked the body of the Chu army guard off the tower.

At that moment, Sun Chi and Wu Ju turned back to each other and shouted loudly: "Your general is dead, if you don't want to die, open the city gate and welcome my lord into the city!"

After hearing this, everyone immediately cupped their hands and said, "I'll wait for my wish!"

Sun Chi shouted: "In this case, open the city gate quickly without delay."

Among the soldiers, there used to be people from the Kingdom of Shu. It was only because Li Linfu received the benefits promised by the Kingdom of Chu that he sold the Three Gorges Pass, and even gave the city of Jiangzhou to Gan Ning and Huang Gai. , The two got the pass, but killed a few people who refused to surrender, and the rest didn't even sit down.

When Xu Shu saw the city gate open, he didn't suspect him, so he led the people into the city.

"The last generals Sun Chi and Wu Jue pay homage to the lord!" Two generals led a group of people and stood in the middle of the road to welcome Xu Shu.

Xu Shu didn't say a word about the surrender of the two before, but said happily: "The two generals have worked hard, and at this moment, hurry up to send troops to the Three Gorges Pass, and take these three natural strong passes back into our hands. , captured the two generals Gan Ning and Huang Gai."

"Here!"

At present, the second general will dispatch his men to go down the river.

When Xu Shu entered the main city, he didn't have time to clean up the generals of the Chu army. He was also worried that if he did it now, the soldiers would mutiny, so the gain would outweigh the loss.

"Immediately send someone to go up the river and tell Huang Gai that Jiangzhou City is already in the hands of our country of Shu. If you are sensible, come and surrender immediately, and you will definitely be able to escape the tower with your life."

"As for Gan Ning...for now, don't send him to inform him, just call him a fool!"

"Here!" The soldiers and horses in the army were dispatched quickly, Xu Shu boarded the tower, looked at the rolling river, and couldn't help sighing: "Li Linfu, a traitor, even sold the second-largest country. Don't give up!"

……

Outside the city of Jiangyang, the army of Gan Ning approached the city on the land, and the army of Huang Gai attacked on the river.

Originally, Gan Ning planned to wait until the battle broke out on the river, and rush to the outside of the city gate. Who knew that the Shu army had built a beacon tower on land, and he was discovered while he was marching.

The beacon fire went straight to Jiangyang City, so Jiangyang City made two-handed preparations, facing the city gate on the land side, and stationed soldiers, ready to fight.

Gan Ning felt a little regretful at the moment, and felt that he should obey Huang Gai's words, otherwise it would be even worse.

On the Yangtze River, Huang Gai launched an attack according to the prior agreement!
For a while, the shouts of killing shook the sky, Gan Ning managed to show no weakness, and led the force to attack.

Suddenly, Gan Ning saw the sound of a large army rushing on the road to the east. He didn't know that a reinforcement of the Shu army came out from there and rushed towards him!

It's really overwhelming, I don't know how many there are!

"General! It's not good, this must be reinforcements from the Shu army, we'd better retreat as soon as possible!"

Once the people in the city open the city gate and cooperate with the Shu army outside the city, the Ganning army will undoubtedly be defeated.

After hearing this, Gan Ning gritted his teeth and said, "I'm so angry, order the whole army to retreat!"

At the moment, the army died down and began to retreat.

The army that came from the land was none other than the army led by Li Jiancheng from Chengdu. They were on their way day and night. By chance, when Gan Ning led the army to attack the city, they killed them outside Jiangyang City.

When the defenders on the tower saw the reinforcements coming, they naturally did not suspect him, so they immediately reported to Duan Tian, ​​but they did not expect that when they arrived at the west gate and the east gate, they saw a large army approaching the river, chasing Huang Gai's army.

"Haha... Barbarians of the Chu Kingdom, aren't you amazing? Grandpa is waiting for you in Jiangyang City!" Duan Tian laughed loudly.

The general hurried to the back and told Duan Tian that reinforcements were coming from the north gate, Duan Tian naturally did not suspect him, and ordered the city gate to be opened to welcome the army into the city.

The battleship of the Shu army chased after a while, then turned back and approached the edge of the city wall.

"This general is Han Shizhong, where is Jiangyang guard Duan Tian?" A loud shout was uploaded from the warship, and Duan Tian naturally recognized Han Shizhong, so he hurriedly shouted from the tower: "The last general is Duan Tian. Open the city gate and welcome the general into the city."

The gate of Shuicheng opened slowly, and the warship was moored outside. After Han Shizhong entered Jiangyang City, he began to inquire about the situation here.

After learning that everything was fine, he naturally praised Duan Tian, ​​and ordered that the army immediately attack Jiangzhou from the waterway. Because the Gan Ning army was found on the road, Li Jiancheng led the army to guard Jiangyang City to prevent Jiangzhou from attacking Jiangzhou. Yangcheng is broken.

Han Shizhong set off with a mighty army, went down the river, and chased and killed Huang Gai.

Huang Gai's side is the hard one. Not long after he escaped from Jiangyang City, he met the people sent by Xu Shu. When he heard the news that Jiangzhou was captured by Xu Shu, Huang Gai was furious.

"Report—general, our army found that the Shu army navy is catching up from behind!"

Huang Gai, who was in a rage, calmed down immediately, and ordered decisively: "Dock the warship on the north bank of the Yangtze River, and all the soldiers of our army will go ashore to fight Gan Ning."

"Here!"

The generals in the army had already lost their minds, and when they heard Huang Gai's words, they immediately yelled and pulled the warship to the shore.

After landing on the shore, Huang Gai ordered that the burnt warships must not be left to the Shu army, and led the soldiers towards the east. The soldiers of the Gan Ning army took the dry road, so naturally they were not as fast as the soldiers who walked by water.

Han Shizhong led the water army down the river and saw the warships of the Chu army burning on the river bank. He was puzzled and was wondering why the Chu army all landed when he suddenly saw a ship shouting from afar. : "But General Han Shizhong!"

Han Shizhong replied loudly: "Yes, this general is Han Shizhong!"

The person on the big boat opposite shouted: "We are the generals under Lord Xu Shu's command. Lord Xu Shu has already taken Jiangzhou, Huang Gai abandoned the ship and landed. I am afraid that the plan will be wrong. Please make a plan early!"

After hearing this, Han Shizhong was overjoyed and said: "Xu Shu has really captured Jiangzhou!" He just left a time earlier than Xu Shu, and of course he followed up and told Han Shizhong about the subsequent strategic deployment, so Han Shizhong also knew that Xu Shu led five thousand troops to Jiangzhou state matter.

The big ship walked in, and the general on board said loudly: "Master Xu's assassins have captured Jiangzhou, and have regained control of the Three Gorges Pass."

"Very good. At this moment, divide the troops into two groups. Wu Yunzhao followed the general to the north bank, chased and killed Huang Gai's army, and sent [-] troops to the south to Jiangzhou to assist Xu Shu in defending Jiangzhou City!"

"Here!"

The army moved quickly.

Let's say Huang Gai marched all the way east, and after walking for less than an hour, he saw Gan Ning leading the army resting on a flat ground.

Gan Ning saw Huang Gai suddenly appearing in front of him, and asked in surprise, "Why are you on land? Where's the warship?"

"Hey! Don't mention it, Xu Shu has already taken our retreat, and Jiangzhou has now returned to the control of the Shu army. Our retreat has been cut off, what do we need warships for?" Huang Gai said in distress.

"Since this is the case, then we have no choice but to survive!" Gan Ning's eyes turned cold, and he said decisively.
