Just when the Shu army soldiers were panicking at the chain, Wu army soldiers rushed out of their hiding place. They were in groups, one holding a steel nail as thick as an arm, and the other holding a sledgehammer in hand, and cooperated with each other to insert the steel nail into the chain link of the chain, and then smashed it with a sledgehammer. With the sound of Ting Dingdang's knocking, the nail was smashed into the soil, nailing the chain firmly to the ground.

Nearly a hundred warships were separated by iron chains, and the Shu army was not only unable to return, but even if they wanted to assemble and set up a formation, they were separated on the surface of a few miles long river.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the soldiers of the Shu army shot with their bows and crossbows while jumping onto the boat and chopping the iron chains with swords and axes.

The chains are very thick and there are thick wood tied on them. It is not easy to cut them off in a hurry.

Taking advantage of the busyness of the Shu army, the Wu army launched an attack.

The crossbowmen rushed to the shore and gathered to shoot at the ship. The warships of the Shu army were all small and medium-sized fighting ships, carrying only a hundred soldiers, and only a few dozen people. Even if they were all arched and shot, they were not as powerful as the Wu soldiers on the shore. Before they could finish their drums, they were completely suppressed and could only hide behind the female wall. No one dared to fight head-on.

The Wu army then approached the boat, hooked the Shu army's warship with an iron hook, climbed upwards, killing people and snatching the ship.

The Shu army fought back desperately, and at the same time beat the war drum and asked for help from the main force.

Less than a moment of fierce fighting between the two sides, the Wu army won the first step and seized a warship. Then they issued a notice, asking the infantry on the shore to pull out the iron nails, sink the iron chains, and drove the warship to the nearby enemy, and cooperated with their companions to seize the ship. Faced with the Wu army's attack, the Shu army quickly could not hold on.

In less than an hour, the pursuing Shu army was wiped out. Except for a few small boats that fled quickly, the rest of the warships of all large and small became the trophy of the Wu army. More than 5,000 people were either killed in battle or captured.

Upon hearing the news, the general of the Shu army, Goldman Sachs, led his troops to the battlefield. He saw nothing except a few iron chains lying across the river. The Wu army had retreated, and the companions he had pursued were gone without a trace, not even a single board left.

The night was dark and the river bank was dark and I didn't even see a torch.

Goldman Sachs did not dare to go ashore. He knew in his heart that with his little force, once he got ashore, he would be ambushed by the Wu army, and he would definitely be wiped out, and even a bone would not be left. He thought about it repeatedly, ordered to retreat for several miles, then anchored the ship, lined up to block the attack, and asked the central army for instructions.

After Cao Ren received the news, he decided to send troops to reinforce. After the Wu army seized the warships, it was stronger and there was not enough force to block the attack. It was difficult to achieve the plan of a navy attacking the left wing of the Wu army. However, he ordered Goldman Sachs not to attack and just defend the river.

When military orders were heard, hundreds of warships sailed away from the water camp and rushed to the downstream river.

In the night, Sun Yi and Zhuge Liang stood side by side on a high slope, looking at the lights of the Shu Navy on the river, and smiling at each other.

Most of the Shu army navy have been transferred from the camp, and He Qi's opportunity has come.

With Cao Ren's ability, he would not stop sending scouts to monitor He Qi behind him. The journey of more than thirty miles is only an hour for the cavalry. After dawn, if He Qi wants to act, it will be difficult for him to escape the eyes of the scouts of the Shu army.

The fighter plane is fleeting.

Sun Yi turned around and looked at the Shu army camp in the distance. "Kong Ming, is Cao Zixiao going to fight at this time because of the situation or want to take a risk?"

"It's hard to say." Zhuge Liang shook his head. "Maybe both, maybe there are other plans. However, after the two battles, his cavalry has been exhausted, and it is unlikely that he will achieve Yingling's record. Of course, the Protector should be more cautious and not give him a chance. His Majesty has Xu Chu, Dian Wei, Guo Wu, and Xie Guanglong, but he is not easily out of the front line."

Sun Yi smiled. "Don't worry, Kong Ming, I will keep it in mind." He sighed again. "The lesson is not far away, how can I repeat the same mistake?"

Zhuge Liang was relieved. Although Sun Yi was younger, he was calmer than Sun Quan. This was probably related to his experience back then. It was good to learn from his mistakes and gain wisdom.

"Protector, there is one more thing."

"you say."

"Although Cao Ren killed Zulang, he was his wife's uncle after all. If he was absolutely unsuccessful, it would be better not to take his life."

Sun Yi was silent for a while and responded vaguely. He had long considered this, but he just couldn't say it. Now that Zhuge Liang took the initiative to raise this point, he naturally would not object. However, when the two armies were fighting, Cao Ren killed Zulang again. If he deliberately protected Cao Ren, it would inevitably attract criticism.

"The Protector, the reason why Your Majesty refused to persuade the surrender was not that he had a deep hatred with the Cao family, but that he was unwilling to give the Yizhou tribe a chance to bargain. After conquering Brazil, Zuo Dumai delayed his troops to Chengdu, but instead stationed in Langzhong to implement the new policy, in order to eliminate the influence of the Zhong Leader (Huang Zhong) before and prevent the Yizhou tribe from having unrealistic attempts so that the new policy could be implemented. From this point of view, whether it is Shu King or Cao Ren, they have made contributions."

Sun Yi frowned slightly, pondered for a while, and turned to look at Zhuge Liang. "Kong Ming, do you think they were... intentional?"

Zhuge Liang laughed loudly. "Protector, are they important to do it intentionally? This is the situation, and he cannot be allowed to do it."

Sun Yi thought about it and couldn't help laughing out loud.

Yingling.

He Qi squatted at the place where Zulang died, touched his hand on the ground, and then sent it to his nose and sniffed it.

There seems to be a smell of blood in the soil.

He Qi sighed softly. "Brother, please walk slowly, wait for me to avenge you and send Cao Ren on the way."

He and Zulang were under Zhou Yu's command. The two of them cooperated and competed. He was born in a noble family, both civil and military, and paid great attention to the etiquette of aristocratic families. Zulang was born in a powerful family and had been in contact with mountains for many years and was somewhat chivalrous. Most of the time, the two did not get along well and had limited personal relationships.

Now that Zulang has died in battle, his grudges have disappeared, leaving only the love of his robe.

Even if Zhou Yu did not come, he would still avenge Zulang, otherwise not only would his reputation be damaged, but he and Zhou Yu would also be disgraced.

After a simple commemoration of Zulang, He Qi ordered the marching to continue, and the marching was urgent.

Before, Cao Ren was determined to defend Fangshan, not afraid of him joining the war, and even hoped that he would attack the tough, so he did not arrange many scouts. Now Cao Ren took the initiative to attack, so he naturally would not let him easily arrive at the battlefield and attack Sun Yi from the front and back. As soon as the sky was dawn, the scouts of the Shu army would strengthen their reconnaissance in this area. No matter how he concealed his whereabouts, the possibility of exposure would increase greatly.

He had only one night and had to arrive at Fangshan before dawn and launch an attack on the Shu army naval camp on the southern foot of Fangshan.

As for whether Sun Yi could lure the main force of the Shu army's naval division out of the camp as planned, it was not his consideration. Even if the Shu army's naval division was all in the camp, he would launch an attack, let the Shu army see his combat effectiveness, and let Sun Yi and his subordinates see that the command of the Zhou governor was not incompetent.

People fight for a breath, and trees live a skin.

Taking advantage of the opportunity to pay homage to Zulang for a while, the soldiers felt the atmosphere at that time and aroused the common hatred in their hearts. He Qi walked quickly and rushed straight to Fangshan.

Wu Jun has always been known for his excellent equipment, good food, and high training intensity. Long-distance weight-bearing training is common. He Qi's family is wealthy and willing to spend money. In addition to the official supply, he often pays to add meals and sets up rewards for the soldiers, and also chooses the best armor and equipment, which is almost luxurious and is often teased by people.

However, the result of this was that his subordinates were the most concise, and they had no burden to march for thirty or forty miles overnight.

Before the hour of Yin, He Qi entered the position.

He ordered his subordinates to take the time to rest, eat something, and replenish their energy. He took his personal guards to climb the small hillside on one side and look out at the Shu army camp. In addition to Zhou Yu's order, there was also a map provided by Sun Yi. The scouts under Sun Yi planned to draw a detailed map near Fangshan. With this map, He Qi outlined the battlefield situation in his mind before setting off, and now he is just verified.

With the lights in the Shu army camp, He Qi checked the terrain and felt a little impressed.

In terms of strategy and experience, Zhuge Liang may not be as good as Xun You. However, in terms of meticulousness in his work, Zhuge Liang is far better than Xun You. This map is the best picture he has seen since he sent troops to fight, and even the military advisory department provides cannot be compared with it.

No wonder some people compare Zhuge Liang with Lu Xun.

After a simple check of the terrain, He Qi's confidence increased greatly.

Sun Yi and Zhuge Liang have achieved the scheduled combat plan, and it depends on his performance next.

He Qi summoned the generals to hold the last meeting. While gnawing on dry food, they were on the map illuminated by the lanterns and deploying the order of attacks. The generals were prepared before, and after listening carefully, they asked some questions, dispersed separately, and led their subordinates into the position.

A quarter of an hour later, He Qi launched an attack.

The two teams of soldiers, led by their respective military marquis, touched the Shu army camp from both sides. The archers first stepped forward and sniped the secret whistle outside the camp. When the Shu army above the tower saw the shadow outside the camp and issued an alarm, they were only about a hundred steps away from the camp gate, and no longer had to hide their bodies and launched a strong attack.

The archers ran forward, pulling their bows and shooting quickly while running, trying their best to clear the lookout and crossbowmen at the gate of the Shu military camp.

Several strong soldiers wearing heavy armor and holding large axes rushed out of the battle formation first. Although two people were shot down by the powerful crossbow of the Shu army, most of them successfully rushed to the front of the Shu army camp.

The Shu army in the camp fought back desperately, some shot with bows and crossbows, and some stabbed them with spears.

The heavy armored soldiers of the Wu army did not look at them at all, and swung the axe and slashed the camp gate. The wood chips flew, and the gate of the Shu army was shaking and was quickly split open. The heavy armored soldiers of the Wu army shouted angrily, knocked them over with force, and swung their axe to chop them.

The Shu army fought desperately, but their strength was too far apart and they were soon chopped apart by the heavy soldiers of the Wu army.

The camp gate was knocked open by the Wu army, and a long roar was heard in the darkness, followed by a chaotic sound of horse hooves, from far to near, from light to heavy, quickly forming a muffled thunder. Dozens of knights rushed out of the darkness and rushed towards the Shu army camp. They raised their crossbows in their hands, shot out a rain of arrows, and severely damaged the Shu army again. Then they rode in, raised their spears in their hands, and kicked the Shu army soldiers who were blocking their heads away.

More knights rushed into the Shu army's naval camp, and teamed up with a hundred people, and entered the Shu army camp in three directions, setting fires on all sides.

More Wu army infantry rushed in, taking Wu Shi as a unit, like mercury leaking from the ground, and quickly marched forward. The Shu army soldiers who had just woken up by the police were unable to organize an effective counterattack, and were killed in a mess, calling the sky and the earth.

In a moment, the Shu army naval camp was in chaos, with fires rising everywhere, and shouts of killing were shaking the sky.

Cao Ren was woken up from his sleep and had no time to put on his clothes. He rushed out of the tent, climbed to the general's platform, overlooking the navy camp by the river, and couldn't help but take a breath of air conditioning.

The Wu army came suddenly and the offensive was fierce. The navy camp had become a sea of ​​fire and could not save it even if it wanted to save it.

Where did these Wu troops come from? Cao Ren didn't know and didn't have time to think about it. In a moment, he knew the key point and immediately ordered people to cut off the passage between the Navy's Camp and the Land Camp to strictly prevent the Wu army from taking advantage of the situation to attack, especially the baggage camp on the southern foot of the Fangshan Mountain.

For the convenience of transportation, the baggage camp was closest to the Navy camp. The Wu army did not attack the Lu camp, but first attacked the Navy camp, so of course it was not for the purpose of killing, but for the purpose of cutting off his retreat and burning his food and supplies.

He had already thought of this, but he didn't expect the other party to come so quickly and attack so fiercely.

As Cao Ren expected, shortly after the Wu army attacked the Shu Navy camp, they immediately divided up several teams and began to attack the Lu camp. Judging from the speed of the torches moving, they should be cavalry. These cavalry rushed to the Lu camp and did not directly attack the camp gate, but threw the torches in their hands into the camp, and at the same time shot out a batch of arrows tied torches with fire-induced objects.

A fire broke out in the Lu Camp, and the soldiers in the camp fought back while putting out the fire, and there was inevitably chaos.

Seeing this, Cao Ren immediately ordered the personal guards to attack and block the Wu army's knights. He knew that He Qi had personal guards, but the number was limited. As long as he sent the personal guards to fight, it would be enough to block their attack on the Lu camp.

With the sound of war drums, hundreds of cavalrymen rolled over their horses, rushed out of the central army camp, accelerated along the hillside, and rushed towards the Wu army knights.

Hearing the sound of war drums on the mountain, the Wu army knights quickly gave up their attack on the Shu army's baggage battalion, began to turn, adjust their formation, and prepare for the battle. Several other infantry teams took over their mission and launched a fierce attack on the Shu army's baggage battalion.

Although I couldn't see the details of the battlefield clearly, I could only roughly estimate the situation on the battlefield with the firelight in the camp and the torches in the hands of the soldiers, Cao Ren's scalp was still numb. The Wu army's attack was too smooth, and the cooperation was almost seamless, making people unable to believe that this was an attack of nearly 10,000 people.

Being able to organize an offensive of nearly 10,000 people so smoothly requires not only the high cooperation of soldiers, but also the command of generals.

Among the Wu army near Jiangyang, there is no more than one hand in the Wu army who can have such ability.

Is it Pan Jun or Sun Yi himself?

Or maybe... Zhou Yu?

While guessing, Cao Ren urgently dispatched his troops to strengthen the protection of the baggage battalion. If the baggage was burned, even if he was defeated in this battle, he would have to rely on whether Sun Yi would give him such face.

The sound of war drums came one after another, and the shouts of killing were shocking.

At the foot of the mountain, Wu and Shu infantry attacked each other through the gate of the baggage camp.

On the more bordered beach, the knights of the two sides clashed and were indistinguishable.

On the river further away, the warships left behind in the camp caught fire and the flames soared into the sky.
