Lu Bu’s Life Simulator

Vol 3 Chapter 431: end of the war

"General, how do you respond?"

After learning that Lu Bu was planning to attack Jiangdong, Wei Yan knew that the last battle in the world was about to start, and he couldn't wait to look at Zhang Liao.

"Map!" Zhang Liao nodded and immediately asked someone to hang up the map. He came to the map and said, "I, Gongming, and Chief Wen are not good at water battles, so this battle requires General Huang to preside over it. The letters sent by the princes formally appointed General Huang, General Wen, General Liu, and General Wang to the military positions, and the old generals were in charge of the naval warfare, and they led the Jingzhou naval forces down the river, waiting for the opportunity to defeat the enemy naval forces."

Although Zhang Liaojue's appointment was a bit risky, after all Huang Zhong and Wen Pin were newly recruited, Lü Bu let them lead an army alone. If they were turned against by the enemy, it would not be a trivial matter for them, so Zhang Liao secretly let Jiang Xu As the prefect of Nanjun, he presided over the affairs of Nanjun, and let a large number of Shu troops enter Jingzhou by water.

In this way, even if the Jingzhou navy rebels, they can still protect Nan County.

"General Huang leads an army alone?" Wei Yan and Xu Huang looked at Zhang Liao in amazement. They had the same doubts as Zhang Liao.

"Exactly." Zhang Liao nodded earnestly, looked at Huang Zhong and said, "Old General, you will preside over this battle."

"Taiwei is so relieved of me?" Huang Zhong got up, took over the appointment and looked at Zhang Liao in surprise.

"The lord's letter has already stated that there is no doubt about employing people, and no doubting about them. He has heard the military history of the veteran general, and he believes that the old general is definitely not such a treacherous person!" Zhang Liao said solemnly.

However, based on his understanding of Lu Bu, I am afraid that Lu Bu was not afraid of the Jingzhou navy's surrender and revolted, so he would so boldly hand over the navy directly to a new general.

Huang Zhong said sullenly: "Since the captain dares to believe, then the general will be smashed to pieces, and he must establish this skill in order to live up to the trust of the captain!"

"General, what should I do?" Wei Yan asked Zhang Liao.

"By land!" Zhang Liao pointed in the direction of Guiyang and said, "I'll wait to get here by boat and enter the Ganjiang River via Yichun, then I'll wait for both land and water to attack. Even if the Jiangdong navy is powerful, if it's a land battle, it's definitely not our army. adversary!"

The most convenient thing about fighting in the south is that the criss-crossing waterways can greatly save manpower. Even if there are no railroad tracks here, they can still transport materials by water and land, which is much more convenient than in the north.

Of course, there is another point in fighting in the south, that is, the land of Jingnan is full of miasma, especially for generals born in the north such as Zhang Liao and Xu Huang.

However, Zhang Liao went out to Shu this time and brought with him 20,000 soldiers and soldiers trained from various ethnic groups in the southern border. These people are no strangers to this environment, and the main force of this battle is also these people.

As for the Nanyang Army brought by Wei Yan will stay in Jingzhou, Wei Yan and Xu Huang will follow Zhang Liao by land and go straight to Yuzhang. Of course, this distance is a bit long. According to the calculation from Guiyang, if you go all the way to Chaisang by land, you will not consider other things. Factors, the distance alone is 800 miles, and the water route is only 300 miles, and it is downstream, if the wind direction is right, they can reach Chaisang in one day, and they travel by land, based on the terrain there, it is conservatively estimated. Have to go a month, this is the gap!

In addition, it is almost impossible for these four states to not cause trouble, so Zhang Liao's journey is much more difficult than Huang Zhong. Of course, the premise is that Huang Zhong can break through the obstruction of the Jiangdong Navy.

Jiangdong was able to stabilize after Sun Ce's death in the war. In addition to Sun Quan's ingenuity and the support of Sun Ce's team such as Zhou Yu and Taishi Ci, Jiangdong's navy was also an important reason. Yuan Shu wanted to send troops to cross the river, but he couldn't use other people's navy. , the navy is Jiangdong's biggest reliance, and it is not easy for Huang Zhong to break through it.

Although it was in response to the main attack, just like Wei Yan bombarded Xiangyang, Zhang Liao naturally wanted to make more contributions in this last battle. It would be difficult for Huang Zhong to break through the defense of the Jiangdong Navy. Although Zhang Liao's army was troublesome It’s a bit too much, but after the Jingzhou navy, the materials accumulated in the Yiling area in the middle of Shu can be transported continuously by water, and it may be that he will have to rely on him to break Yuzhang in the end.

The plan was decided, so they split up immediately. Zhang Liao sent Jiang Xu to ask him to prepare food and grass supplies, and he led his army into Dongting Lake by boat, straight into Guiyang, and then turned to Yuzhang by land.

Huang Zhong, on the other hand, moved the Jingzhou navy to Jiangxia, wanting to break through Chaisang's aggressive Yuzhang one step ahead of Zhang Liao, to prove that Lu Bu was right.

On the other hand, here in Jiangdong, before sending a letter to Zhang Liao, Lv Bu had ordered Pang De to lead his army to capture Hefei. Although Hefei was strong, it was guarded by Jiangdong generals like Taishi Ci and Lu Meng. cost.

However, this time, facing thousands of cannons and thunderbolts blasting the wall, the city wall of Hefei was smashed down abruptly. Taishi Ci and Lu Meng could only retreat from Hefei under the rain of arrows.

The battle of Hefei ended in a total of less than three days before the city was destroyed and escaped. After that, the Huaxiong, Xu Rong, and Gao Shun armies advanced and attacked together. After entering the Yangtze River, he relied on the advantages of the navy to stabilize his position.

There was no other way. Gan Ning's fleet had not yet arrived, and Lu Bu did not have any navy forces to continue the pursuit. He could only set up artillery formations along the river to establish a defense line to prevent the Jiangdong navy from approaching.

Gu Taishi Ci and Lu Meng's disgraced cannon fodder Moring returned to life.

"Then the Vulcan Cannon is really that powerful?" Zhou Yu frowned and looked at Taishi Ci. It was impossible for these two to lie to him, but the defense line that had been in operation for a long time was attacked by Lu Bu in less than half a month. Fragmentation makes it difficult for Zhou Yu to accept.

Taishi Ci nodded with a wry smile, recalling the scene of the city's destruction in Hefei, and said with emotion: "The general knows that the governor does not believe it, but the Vulcan cannon attacked the city at least 500 paces away, and a stone bullet landed on the city wall. The person in the middle was immediately broken, and there was no chance of life, and the Hefei city wall was bombed for three days and immediately collapsed."

In general, the most common siege of a city is to hit the city gate, but the Guanzhong army is attacking the city wall. Hefei has been reinforced for many years. Such a city wall was forcibly smashed down. How can we fight this battle?

Lu Meng added: "I wanted to rely on street battles to hold back the enemy troops and wait for reinforcements, but who knows that Guan Zhongjun is wearing two armors, and the weapons in his hands are far better than ours. A small **** is cut off!"

With that said, Lu Meng drew out his broken sword. This was a sword made by a famous Jiangdong craftsman, but it was cut off when he was slashing with the opponent's small soldier!

The weapon held by a soldier can be called a powerful weapon, and the two armors are quite strong. Unless you hit a place where there is no armor, you can't break the defense with a single knife.

Not to mention that Guan Zhongjun's repeated crossbow is so arrogant when he shoots it. They don't dare to shoot more, and they never stop from beginning to end.

The process of retreating this way is almost a race against fate. If you run too slowly, there is basically no chance of survival.

Of the 8,000 defenders in Hefei, less than 1,000 came back alive, not because the soldiers were desperate, but they were shot and killed by the overwhelming rain of arrows before they could even escape.

Zhou Yu clasped his hands and fingers together, his eyes dignified, he thought that if Lv Bu killed Cao Cao, he would stop for a while before fighting, but he didn't expect it to come so quickly, and most importantly, it came so violently.

It was a bit exaggerated to see Cao Cao's defeat so simply before. Is it because Cao Cao is old? Now it seems that it is not that Cao Cao is weak, but that Lu Bu is too strong. In less than a month of effort, both Jiujiang and Lujiang counties were lost. If it were not blocked by the big river, I am afraid that Jiangdong would be difficult to hold.

"Captain, although this battle is lost, there is no navy army for Lu Bu. Our army is guarding the east of the Yangtze River, and even if Lu Bu can't fight him, he can go to the river and rule with him." Seeing that Zhou Yu did not speak, Lu Meng said quickly.

Lu Su, who was on the side, shook his head with a wry smile and said, "Zi Ming doesn't know anything, Cai Mao has written a letter before, and Nan County has been defeated by the Nanyang Army. Now Liu Cong and Jingzhou Wenwu have retreated to Jingnan. If Lv Bu is allowed to cross the river in Jingzhou. , they can completely avoid the navy and take Yuzhang to invade my Jiangdong, then, how to defend?"

"So fast!?" Lu Meng looked at Lu Su in astonishment. Seeing Lu Su's affirmative nod, he felt a little nervous. Jingzhou should be just a side teacher, and he actually beat the Jingzhou army so badly?

But thinking about the battle of Hefei, if the Nanyang Army also had weapons like the Vulcan Cannon, it would not be surprising that Jingzhou fell.

"Zijing, I have to trouble you to go to Jingzhou and discuss with Cai Mao to jointly block the Dajiang!" Zhou Yu looked at Lu Su and said that there was some friction between Jiangdong and Jingzhou. After all, Sun Ce always plotted against Jingzhou when he was alive. After Sun Quan came to power, he actually had a coveted heart for Jingzhou~www.readwn.com~ But no matter what, in the current situation, he could only control Dajiang first.

Now even if you want to annex Jingzhou, it's too late, so it's better to cooperate first and wait for Lu Bu to retire.

"Where is the lord..." Lu Su nodded and looked at Zhou Yu with some worry.

Sun Quan was a little hesitant to fight against Lu Bu this time, and some people in Jiangdong suggested surrender. After all, when the world hits here, Jiangdong is only a side of the country at best, and it has to suffer from the war. Now, if you hear that Jiangbei is so quick. Being fully occupied by Lu Bu, I am afraid that Sun Quan's heart of resistance will be shaken even more.

"I will discuss with the lord, and persuade the lord not to give up. After all, although Lu Bu is in a big situation, we still have the upper hand on this river. As long as we can defeat that Lu Bu in a battle, we only need one battle, and we can wait. Ten years of stability!" Zhou Yu said solemnly.

Lu Su nodded silently when he heard the words, since Zhou Yu already had a plan in his mind, he didn't need to say more.

Immediately, Lu Su got up and went to Jingnan to discuss with Cai Mao and others about joining forces.

After Zhou Yu appeased Taishi Ci and Lv Meng, he asked Lv Meng to go to Chaisang to assist in the garrison. Although He Qi was already there, An's worst plan was that if Jingnan was attacked by Zhang Liao, Yuzhang's defense would be insufficient, and he had to increase the defense. Just send troops. After all these arrangements are completed, Taishi Ci will be left to guard the main camp, and he will go to see Sun Quan. In any case, Sun Quan's will needs to be firm at this time!
