Spoiler History: Starting from the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 358 Breaking into Jiangdong

All the warships under Guan Yu's command were parked near Xiangfan.

On the one hand, Jiangdong controls Jiangxia, and the Han River flows into the Yangtze River from here. Therefore, the navy has to report to Jiangdong when going back and forth, which is quite troublesome.

On the other hand, if the navy stays in Xiangfan, it can radiate to Jingbei. Even if Jingbei loses to Cao's army, the navy can ensure that it will not be defeated thousands of miles away and can stop Cao's army in Xiangfan as a line of defense.

Now, Lü Meng's troops besieging Jiangling had announced the end of the alliance between Sun and Liu.

In this case, there is no need to worry, it is time for this navy to take action.

Since Cao Jun hopes that Jiangdong will regain the style of Chibi, they will work together to carve up Jingzhou.

Then Guan Yu felt that he had the responsibility to make Cao Cao clearly realize that Jiangdong today is no longer the Jiangdong in Red Cliff.

Now there is a large army garrisoned in northern Jing. Although the war is gradually dying down, Guan Yu and Xu Shu still need to be in charge.

In this case, Gan Gui became the best candidate to lead the water division.

Because Lu Meng blocked the Yangtze River, which made the exchange of intelligence difficult, Guan Yu very generously granted Gan Gui the right to act expeditiously and let him break the siege of Jiangling.

Looking at Gan Gui's unabashed joy as he left, Guan Yu thought thoughtfully:

"No wonder Yuan Zhi told Ji Chang half a year ago, saying that if you join forces to cross the mountains, you have to wait for the giant ship to be built before you can attack Jiangdong."

Xu Shu chuckled and waved his hand, was it difficult to predict Gan Gui's decision?

Gan Gui's decision did not surprise Xu Shu.

"If Jiangling is liberated, we must attack it and save it!"

Facing his father's 800 old men, Gan Gui was not timid at all, and could even be said to be eager to try:

"Instead of leading the navy to attack the Jiangdong navy under Jiangling City, it is better to drive a huge boat straight to the hinterland of Jiangdong, so that those big names know what the power of a strong crossbow is!"

This rather reckless decision won loud applause from Gan Ning’s old troops:

"Destroy Jianye, shoot Sun Hou, increase your reputation, and welcome back General Gan!"

Just thinking about Sun Hou obediently sending his father out under the threat of a giant crossbow makes Gan Gui's blood boil.

After regrouping the navy in Xiangfan, and looking at the new improvements added to the giant ship in the past six months, Gan Gui made no secret of his ambition:

"I'm going to drive the giant ship right in front of that Sun Zhongmou and cum!"

The only way for the navy to go directly from Xiangfan to the east of the Yangtze River is the Yangtze River. If you want to enter the Yangtze River, you must first break through Jiangxia and break through the blockade of the Han River.

Lü Meng, who had previously guarded Jiangxia, naturally remembered the Jingzhou Navy, so before raising his troops to march westward, he had ordered the Han River to be destroyed, making it impossible for boats to pass.

The Jiangdong soldiers stationed here were bored and cursed.

After all, seeing others being able to enter Jingnan under the leadership of the generals to perform meritorious deeds, but here I am looking at the same scenery every day, it would be difficult for anyone else not to complain.

"I heard that Jiangling City is about to be destroyed! I wonder how many treasures can be obtained after the city is destroyed."

"Come on, Wu Laosan!" Others laughed:

"We said that Jiangling was going to be destroyed half a month ago, but half a month later, Jiangling is as stable as Hefei."

This sentence immediately caused a burst of laughter, but the word "Hefei" was too sensitive, so after laughing, someone changed the topic with a haha:

"By the way, who are we guarding against here? Now the Han River has been dug into dozens of tributaries, and the main river channel is still built with boats and sunken rivers as a barrier. Even if General Lu comes in person..."

"You can also teach it to never come back, right?"

However, while talking and laughing, some soldiers discovered something different:

"A ship is coming?"

It wasn't that one or two soldiers were dazzled. A navy that did not belong to Jiangdong did appear on the Han River in the distance.

The big ship in the center is extremely conspicuous, and there are quite a few warships beside it. From a distance, it looks like stars looming over the moon.

As the navy gradually approached, they could see that the big ship gradually stopped, and then dozens of small boats broke away from the fleet and continued to move forward. “General Guan wants to break the barrier with a small boat?”

"Or come to persuade us to surrender?"

The Jiangdong Army members chirped and expressed their opinions.

After all, the response here is to destroy the river channel and make it impossible for the Jingzhou Navy to pass.

Now that the river channel has been destroyed and everything they can do has been done, we can't let them fight by fighting in groups, right?

And soon someone saw the clue:

"These crossings are trying to block the tributaries!"

"So what if it's blocked?"

When they got closer, they could see clearly that these walking boats were full of river sand. When the boats reached the dug openings, the walking boats were dug through the bottom of the boat and slowly sank.

The openings dug by Jiangdong's army were slowly re-blocked, and the water flow in the Han River slowly rose again.

But in Jiang Dongzu's opinion, the effect was not great. Even if the water flow increased, the flow rate was still slow and it failed to wash away the obstacles in the river.

As long as the Jingzhou Navy continues to move forward, it will be hindered by these things. At that time, the small boat loaded with kerosene that has been prepared on the Jiangxia Pier will be lit and go straight to the Jingzhou Navy.

This is the back-up plan laid out by General Lu.

But soon, Jiang Dongjun saw that the giant boat lowered all the sails, and then began to accelerate non-stop.

"There is no strong wind today, how can we drive so fast!" someone exclaimed.

But when they got closer, they could see clearly that the two round cars behind the giant boat were spinning very fast. It was obvious that the power came from here.

With the combined efforts of the sailing car and the Han River, and under the watchful eye of the Jiangdong Army, the giant boat was like an arrow from the string, charging forward on the Han River with an indomitable momentum, and the target was exactly what Jiangdong Army had laid in the Han River. obstacle.

There was no earth-shattering sound, nor was there any lag. It can be said that it was taken for granted that the obstacles formed by these sunken ships were smashed to pieces by the giant boats, turning into a pile of rotten wood floating on the water, and then slowly drifting downstream along the Han River. .

Jiang Dongjun was so shocked that he was speechless for a moment. He raised his head and watched the huge ship passing by.

Everyone also saw at the same time that on the bow of this giant boat, there was an excessively young figure laughing wildly.

His voice reached the ears of Jiang Dongjun with the help of the chorus of shouts from the sailors on the giant boat:

"Lü Meng attacks Jiangling, and I will take Jianye to see who can break the city first!"

As the giant boat broke through the obstacles, there were no more obstacles on the Han River. The Jingzhou Navy, led by the giant boat, drove straight into Jiangxia, then entered the Yangtze River without any regrets, and sailed straight towards the lower reaches.

It wasn't until the navy's sails gradually disappeared that the Jiangxia defenders recovered from the shock:

"Jianye? Their goal is Jianye?"

"This...should be reported to General Lu as soon as possible!"

The whole Jiangxia was suddenly in chaos, but at the same time, everyone in private couldn't help but think about the content of the Jingzhou Navy coach's statement:

Who can break the city first?

This seems to be a question that does not require thinking. In the previous battle of Jingxiang, it was well known that General Guan used a giant boat to destroy Fancheng.

Jianye City is certainly larger than Fan City, but is it stronger than Fan City? That really has to be a question mark.

It was half a day later when the news was delivered to Lu Meng. As a general of Sun Quan, there was almost no need to think about how to respond:

"The navy turns around and helps the construction industry!"

　I got so stuck that I lost a chapter and will sort it out again tomorrow.

　　The plot I conceived was so out of shape after I wrote it, it felt so uncomfortable.
