Chapter 395 The Battle of Zhejiang Water

Zhang Liao, who was in Danyang, received an order from Ai Lang and immediately discussed with Zhao Yun and other generals. Soon after, Zhang Liao decided to let Zhao Yun lead 3,000 infantry guard Danyang, and he himself led 12,000 infantry to fight for his membership. At about the same time, Xu Huang, who was in Wu County, also received Ai Lang's order. After a moment of discussion, the two decided to lead 3,000 naval soldiers to stay in Wu County, while Xu Huang led another 17,000 naval troops to go east out of Wu County, boarding the ship from the landing harbor, and preparing to land from the waterway to the coast east of the membership. According to the battle plan formulated by Xu Shu, the troops and horses will land near Mao County, east of Mao County, Juzhang, Yuyao, Shangyu and other counties of Mao County, Juzhang, Yuyao, Shangyu and other counties advance from the east to force their membership, forming an attack with the army led by Zhang Liao.

At this time, the city gates of the membership city had already been closed and anyone was entering and leaving casually. The originally lively street market became silent, and no shop opened, and pedestrians were not seen on the street. The whole city was shrouded in an uneasy atmosphere. In the Yuelai Inn near the west gate of the city, several Japanese merchants who came to do business gathered together, and everyone looked worried. At this moment, the door was suddenly pushed open and a Japanese man ran in. Several Japanese men in the room immediately looked at him, and the oldest Japanese man asked in Japanese, "How is Yamamoto Jun?" The Japanese man who was called Yamamoto Jun said with a worrying look: "I have asked for it! It is indeed Lu Bu, the general of the Han Dynasty cavalry, led the army to fight! I heard that Wujun and Danyang County in the north have been captured by Lu Bu's army!..."

Several Japanese people in the room were all anxious, and a thin Japanese man said angrily: "We are so unlucky! We actually encountered such a thing!" Another handsome Japanese man said in a longing tone: "There is no need to worry too much! This place is not close to Danyang in Wujun! Maybe Lu Bujun won't come here!" Before he finished speaking, a hurried sound of horse hooves came from outside the window.

Several Japanese people couldn't help but worry, so they quickly got up and ran to the window, opened the window and looked outside. They saw a scout cavalry responsible for inquiring about military information, running in from the west city gate. In a blink of an eye, they passed by the inn where several people were temporarily staying and ran straight to the distance. The sound of horse hooves was particularly harsh on the quiet street, making people feel uneasy. A Japanese person couldn't help but frown: "I hope there is no bad news! Otherwise..." The other Japanese people also looked worried.

Not long after, Wu Jing and Dong Xi in the prefect's mansion met the scout who had just run into the city. As soon as the scout saw the two, he said anxiously: "No, sir! Lu Bu's army is coming!" Dong Xi frowned and scolded: "What's the matter?" The scout swallowed and calmed down. Wu Jing asked: "What's the situation? How many soldiers do the other party have?" "Probably, about 10,000 or 20,000 people!"

When the two of them heard this number, they couldn't help but calm down. Wu Jing said angrily: "A mere 10,000 or 20,000 enemy troops actually scared you into this way! It's useless!" The scout was embarrassed and couldn't speak.

Dong Xi said to Wu Jing, "Sir, I want to lead 5,000 troops to the Xiaoshan Ferry. When they are halfway through, they will definitely be able to annihilate most of them! In this way, the enemy's aura will be frustrated, and we will be more relaxed to defend Kuaiji!" Wu Jing hesitated, and finally nodded and said, "Okay! Then he asked with concern: "General Dong's injury is not important, right?" Dong Xi laughed, patted his chest, and said loudly: "This injury is nothing! This is fine!" Then he clasped his fists and said, "No need to delay, I will go!" Wu Jing clasped his fists and said, "Be careful, General!" Dong Xi nodded and ran out of the gate. Soon after, Dong Xi rushed to the military camp and lit up the five thousand officers and soldiers to leave the city.

When the Japanese saw that the general named Dong Xi led 5,000 troops out of the city from the west gate, they knew that the situation they didn't want to see was probably really a reality. One Japanese said worriedly: "I don't know when this war will end. I'm afraid it will be a big mistake!" The others also looked worried. However, at this moment, these people had no choice but to worry.

It is said that Dong Xi led 5,000 troops to Xiaoshan, and then ordered the troops to ambush in the mountains and forests and wait for the enemy to arrive. Xiaoshan is on the east bank of Zhejiang River. Due to the gentle water flow in this area, two floating bridges were built here, which are exclusively for exchanges between the people on the east and west sides of the Taiwan Strait!

An officer ran to the east and clasped his fists and said, "General, should we burn the pontoon bridge?" Dong Xi said angrily: "Doesn't we tell the enemy that we are prepared? Send orders to pour tung oil on the pontoon bridge and do not set fire." The officer Ying Nuo ran down. After a while, more than a hundred officers and soldiers rushed to the pontoon bridge with large cans and small cans, pouring cans of tung oil on the pontoon bridge. After that, the officers and soldiers quickly left the pontoon bridge and retreated back to the forest to hide again. Dong Xi looked at the two pontoon bridges at the foot of the mountain not far away, with excitement on his face and murmured: "Come on! Come on! This time I want to let you know how powerful I, Jiangdongerlang!"

About an hour later, the sun had already set westward. Just as Dong Xi was waiting anxiously, an officer next to him suddenly pointed to the distance from the west bank and shouted, "General, look!" Dong Xi quickly looked in the direction of his finger, and suddenly saw a soldier turning from behind a hill in the distance towards this side, with cavalry and infantry, which was Lu Bu's army! Dong Xi was very excited and shouted, "Brothers, be prepared for battle!" The order was quickly conveyed, and the five thousand Sun Jianjun was ready for battle, and everyone was hiding under the shadow of the tree and staring at the opposite shore wide.

Not long after, I saw that the army arrived at the west bank, with about 10,000 or 20,000 people, probably the troops of Zhang Liao who had reported to him earlier.

Zhang Liao led his army to the west bank of Zhejiang River, looked at the two floating bridges in front of him, and laughed: "Sun Jianjun is really a group of waste. He didn't even burn the floating bridge. Isn't this asking us to occupy Kuaiji?" The generals around him laughed. Zhang Liao thought for a while, then carefully observed the terrain and landforms of the other side, and then said to Wen Chou: "General Wen Chou!" Wen Chou immediately clasped his fists and said, "What order does the general have?" Zhang Liao gave a careful advice, and finally asked, "Have you written it down?" Wen Chou nodded, clasped his fists and said, "Simple!" Then he waved the big knife in his hand and shouted, "Come with me!" Then he led the three thousand infantry and cavalry under his command to cross the river first.

The Sun Jian army officers and soldiers who were hiding in the mountains and forests on the other side couldn't help but get excited when they saw this. A general couldn't help but ask Dong Xi in a low voice: "General, can you attack?" Dong Xi suppressed his excitement and waved his hand and said: "It's not time yet! Don't worry! This is their front army, let them go. When the enemy's main force starts to cross the river, it's the time for us to attack!"

Not long after, the three thousand infantry and cavalry led by Wen Chou crossed the Zhejiang River and did not stop. They ran straight to Kuaiji along the avenue. Soon their figures were blocked by the mountains and forests and disappeared from Dong Xi and their vision. Dong Xi did not pay attention to Wen Chou's front army, but stared at the west bank and waited for Zhang Liao to lead the main force to cross the river. However, the front troops led by Wen Chou had passed for a while, but Zhang Liao and his main force still stopped the troops on the west bank without any movement. The things couldn't help but get anxious again and murmured: "What's going on? Why is Zhang Liao still just a river?" An officer next to him couldn't help but say: "No, it's them who discovered us, right?" Dong Xi's heart was thrilled, and then he felt it was impossible!

At this moment, a huge shout came from behind, mixed with screams before death. Dong Xi and others were shocked and turned around in a hurry. Suddenly, they saw that the army was in chaos. The Wen Chou army, who had just crossed the river, was rushing up from behind! The soldiers of the Wen Chou army were like wolves and tigers, and they killed the Jiangdong army corpses with blood and flew into chaos! Dong Xi couldn't help but widen his eyes and shouted, "What's going on?" Seeing that his own team was in chaos, and the enemy was sweeping over with a destructive force, he couldn't help but be anxious and angry, and immediately led the personal soldiers around him to rush forward, trying to turn the situation around.

However, Sun Jian's army was in chaos at this moment, and Dong Xi and others joined the battle as if they poured a little cold water into the boiling pot, and they did not play any role at all. Lu Bu's army rushed to the fierce killing place, and completely defeated Sun Jian's army. Sun Jian's army was defeated, and Dong Xi, who wanted to fight desperately, was dragged and fled by his subordinates!

Dong Xi and others retreated from the mountains and forests, but they ran into the main force of Zhang Liao's army who had just crossed the river. After a fierce battle, the remaining Dong Xi army was almost wiped out. Dong Xi himself rushed towards Zhang Liao in despair and tried to fight to the death. However, although Dong Xi was brave, he was not Zhang Liao's opponent. After ten rounds, Dong Xi was knocked down by Zhang Liao with a knife and let the officers and soldiers who rushed up to capture him alive.

Although Dong Xi was tied up by five flowers, he struggled endlessly and scolded: "Despicable and despicable!"

Zhang Liao smiled and said, "You ambushed here and tried to ambush me, but why do you say I am despicable?" Dong Xi couldn't speak, then glared at Zhang Liao and shouted, "Since I have fallen into your hands, I want to kill you and slap in my hands!" Zhang Liao looked at the fearless enemy general in front of him, and couldn't help but feel sympathy and asked, "What's your name?" "I'm called Dong Xi! You killed me today, and I will kill you to take revenge in twenty years!"

Zhang Liao asked, "Don't you want to surrender?" "Nonsense! Jiangdong only has loyal souls who died in battle, how can there be a coward who bows his knees!"

Zhang Liao thought for a moment and smiled and said, "Okay. Since you don't want to surrender, I'll let you go and let him go." The last sentence was said to the officers and soldiers who grabbed Dong Xi. Hearing this, several officers and soldiers immediately cut off the ropes on Dong Xi's body and let him go. Dong Xi stared at Zhang Liao with a pair of bear eyes and said angrily: "Why don't you kill me? Do you look down on me?" Zhang Liao smiled and said, "Do you have to seek death? If you insist on seeking death, I won't stop you. There is a big river next to you, jump away!" Dong Xi said angrily: "I'm not stupid, why do you want to seek death by yourself! But sooner or later, you will regret it if you let me go!" After that, he turned around and went.
