Chapter 160: The First Battle of the Strange (Part 1)
The Jiangdong Navy, which was fighting against the Jingling Navy, was not an elite navy, but the ships and equipment were far ahead of the Wei ship.
.The three or four warships of the Jingling Navy hit the Jiangdong giant ship one after another. The iron cone in the front section of the warship was quite deep, fixing the warship and the giant ship together.
No matter how powerful the giant ship is, it is difficult to speed up when dragging three or four Wei ships. What's more, the hundreds of warships from the two countries on the water are on fire, and there is no way out for a while. The Jingling Water Army began to climb the giant ships and wanted to fight with the Wu people, so the Wu people had to fight.
When the two sides were fighting fiercely, the Wei soldiers who were left on the Wei ship began to chisel the ship, apply oil and set fire to the hull of the giant ship. A series of crazy actions told the Wu people that these Wei soldiers were crazy! They did not consider their own life and death, and were determined to keep the Wu people buried with them!
The fire on the sea is getting bigger and bigger, and the Wu ship on the edge has withdrawn from the dangerous area. Most of the Wu ships are still in the sea of fire. Whether the Wei people cut or slashed the Wei people, no matter which one, the final outcome is to be burned to death and drowned.
The Wei people's warships passed through the narrow sea of fire and came with fire. They were busy fighting and desperately ignored the fire on the ship. So more than a dozen Jingling Navy ships began to enter the water and sank... Fortunately, the Jingling Navy had already abandoned the ship and fought on the Wu people's ships.
What's more, some people lit fires everywhere on the Wu ship. This behavior made the Wu army feel extremely frightened. The Jingling Water Army in front of them did not have any intention of fighting? They were clearly a group of desperate people!
The veteran general of the Jingling Water Army commanded the troops to destroy the giant ships of the Wu people. The raging fire on the water kept emitting black smoke. The Wei soldiers, who were responsible for the destruction of the operation, covered their mouths and noses with their clothes, but still could not escape the infiltration of smoke and fire. The Wei soldiers were constantly smoky and fell into the water.
The shouts of killing on the water were earth-shaking. The Wu army on both sides of the Taiwan Strait were helpless. While watching the battle anxiously, they also asked people to go to Shiyang to report and request reinforcements.
The longer the fierce battle lasted, the fewer ships on the water surface. Two giant warships of the Wu army were sunk by the Jingling Navy one after another, and half of the hull was tilted out of the water surface, with a large fire burning on it.
The veteran general of the Jingling Navy was experienced. Whenever the Wu ship was about to sink, he would ask the soldiers to use giant trees to spread the Wu ship and then find the next target of attack. However, the ship was sailing on the sea of fire, and the Wei ship itself was burned very much...
The shouts of killing on the water gradually became less and there was only a fire that was accompanied by the wind. A navy appeared from the direction of Jingling, which was the fleet of Wu General Lu Kang. Looking at the sky-sky fire in the distance, he shook his head helplessly...
...
Before the news of Jiang Xia's defeat came out, the confrontation between Shouchun was officially begun. Lu Kai, Ding Feng and Zhu Yi divided the troops into three groups, with a total of 130,000 Wu troops heading to Shouchun, with great fanfare along the way, and the momentum was like a rainbow!
According to spies, part of the Wei army in Shouchun was taken away by Sima Wang, and the remaining Wei soldiers were about 60,000. The city walls of Shouchun had long been restored, and many fortifications were built outside the city, and some trenches were dug as barriers.
Under normal circumstances, this is like a nightmare for the Wu Bing, and its ability to attack is not outstanding. The Wei people built a large-scale construction fortifications, which is enough to fight a war of attrition with the Wu army, which is twice as good as the Wei people. Now the Wu people are not afraid. With treasures like a catapult, their ability to attack has increased several times at once. The Wei army is seeking death by sticking to the city according to the old methods!
You should know that the Wu Kingdom sent troops to Nanyang, Jiangxia and Shouchun at the same time. The Wu people had a catapult cart and other places just learned how the Wei army in Shouchun was prepared?
Lu Kai was full of confidence and kept thinking about the Wei army's response. After understanding the actions of the Wei people, this game of chess is just a procedure. Thinking of Xun Xu's angry look, Lu Kai laughed secretly. The Wu people just took the opportunity to seek chips to compete with the Shu people in the future. And the Wei people were still playing the abacus of joining Wu and Shu, which was ridiculous.
When they joined forces with Wei, they defeated Guan Yu, but after Lu Xun defeated Liu Bei in Yiling, the Wei army was invading one after another! If there was a precedent for the Wu people to betray the alliance for no reason, how could the Wei people be reliable allies?
In the past, it was to maintain a balanced state of three parts of the world, so the Wu Kingdom was swaying between Wei and Shu. Now Shu Han has the ability to break the world situation. Joining Shu to resist Wei, or joining Wei to attack Shu to attack Shu was just a choice to take sides for Wu Kingdom.
Standing on the side of Shu, what you get is the ability to defeat the Wei army. Standing on the side of Wei, how can you fight against the more powerful Wei Kingdom after swallowing Shu?
The former is evenly matched after the Central Plains, while the latter cannot obtain the entire territory of Shu, which has no meaning to Jiangdong.
The three Wu soldiers quickly gathered under Shouchun City, and the Wei army in the city had no plans to leave the city to fight as expected. Faced with more than 100,000 Wu troops, the Wei people did not dare to act rashly.
The fortifications and trenches that the Wei army in Shouchun had worked hard to build were destroyed and filled by the Wu army. In one day, the Wu army advanced to the city of Shouchun, surrounding Shouchun.
It was not enough to just siege Shouchun. Lu Kai divided two teams of more than 10,000 people to station in the major transportation routes in the north and west of Shouchun. These two directions were the boundaries of Xuzhou and Yuzhou. In the past, Wei reinforcements from Yuzhou and Xuzhou came to help a lot.
The catapults were ready one after another. Although it was getting late, the Wu people were very happy to give the Wei army a blow, allowing the Wei people to experience the power of the catapults and the pain of being unable to sleep at night.
The Wei people saw clearly on the top of the city, pointing fingers and not knowing what the Wu people were doing. The Wei army guarding the city also did not understand. What were the Wu people doing when they came to attack the city with great force?
When the Wu army was busy, hundreds of defeated soldiers rushed back to the rear!
Lu Kai was shocked when he heard this and quickly ordered Ding Feng, Zhu Yi and others to come quickly to discuss matters. The Wu Bing who fled back was sent to a nearby Wu army to investigate and station. When he saw Lu Kai, he talked about the incident in a verbal way.
It turned out that the Wu army was stationed in Yingshui, which is the largest river near Shouchun. I didn’t expect that before we reached Yingshui, more than 10,000 Wei troops came towards us! The leader of Wu general died in a fierce battle, and the thousands of people followed him also suffered heavy casualties. Only these hundreds of people knew the opportunity and ran back to report the news first.
"No! Could the Wei people want to break the water?" Lu Kai was shocked, but he didn't believe it. This battle was no different from the previous one. The 130,000 Wu army had only more than 30,000 more than the 100,000 Wu army. Even if the Wei army did not dare to go out of the city to fight, there was no need to use such a decisive strategy...
Although the flood can flood the Wu army, Shouchun City will be difficult to save at that time. What is the necessary solution to both sides of the country?
While pondering, Ding Feng, Zhu Yi and other Wu generals arrived. He heard that these military situations were similar to Lu Kai's ideas. The Wei army was lurking near the Yingshui River, and its purpose could only be explained by the desire to break the dike, but the Wei army did not have the motivation to break the dike!
The reactions and actions of this situation show that the Wei people had no confidence in winning this battle, so they made extreme actions.
"What do Chengyuan thinks?" Lu Kai first solicited the opinions of Ding Feng, the old general.
Ding Feng gently stroked his white beard and said, "We should slow down the attack on the city, and we must also prepare for flood prevention. We should quickly wipe out the Wei army outside the city first."
"What do you think about Ji Wen?" Lu Kai turned to Zhu Yi's opinion.
"What Chengyuan said is very true, and we must also beware of the Wei army in the city taking action." Zhu Yilue added.
Lu Kai nodded, so he ordered the army to prepare to move to the high ground, so that Ding Feng could lead the army to cut off the rear and prepare for the Wei army in the city. Zhu Yi ordered 30,000 troops to go to Yingshui to find out. The generals ordered each to leave. Lu Kai could not make a decision in his heart, and he couldn't help but sigh: "People say that Wang Boyu is well-versed in strategy, but he didn't expect it to be so difficult."
Zhu Yi hurriedly led 30,000 Wu soldiers to the Ying River, and divided 30,000 troops from the army into sections to set up ambush everywhere. Without going ten miles, he saw a flood of floods ahead, and his momentum was very fierce! The Wu army was caught off guard, everyone was panicked, and they fled in scattered.
Zhu Yi was also shocked. He turned his horse's head and didn't care about the soldiers behind him. He quickly ran to the nearby high ground with a whip. However, how could people avoid the boiling water? The 30,000 Wu troops were washed away by the flood in a blink of an eye...
The surging water surprised the generals of the Wu army. Tens of thousands of troops were in an orderly manner for a while. The flood was ruthless, and even if the people of Wu were good at water wars, they could not resist flooding. At this time, everyone was in danger and ran for their own lives.
Just in the chaotic moment, the Wei army, who should have watched the fun on the city wall, suddenly opened four doors and rushed out. Everyone of Wei generals fought for the first place and entered the Wu army formation.
Ding Feng tried his best to command the troops to resist, but when he heard the news that the Wei people broke the dike and released the water, the soldiers and generals of the Wu Kingdom had no intention of fighting. Even if the Wei people did not leave the city, the Wu soldiers would flee themselves, and they were even more vulnerable now!
The Wei army was like a tiger entering a flock of sheep, slaughtering Wu soldiers on a large scale, and they didn't care about the upcoming flood! Lu Kai's central army could not control it. Seeing the Wei army in Shouchun City coming out, Lu Kai suddenly woke up and shouted that he had fallen into a trap!
Although it is a rainy season now, there is no rain recently. Although the Ying River has a lot of water, how can this river flood Shouchun City alone? What's more, the nearby rivers have all assigned Wu troops to garrison to facilitate control of the waterways. Why are the only Wu troops in Ying River attacked?
A series of question marks flashed through his mind, and Lu Kai was regretful and was plotted by the Wei people for a moment of negligence. Looking back at the fourth field, there were all Wu soldiers and generals, who threw away their armor and ran to the nearby high ground earlier. Instead, the Wei army clearly divided the labor and killed Wu people in a neat way. Several Wei troops even rushed to themselves to kill him. In desperation, Lu Kai had to take his personal soldiers and generals to escape first, gradually gathered the defeated army and then made plans.
This battle made the Wei army feel happy to kill. The Wu people buried tens of thousands of corpses around Shouchun City, and blood flowed into a river. The Ying River had retreated before it reached Shouchun. The poor Wu people were frightened and were confused, giving the Wei army an opportunity to take advantage of it.
Lu Kai gathered thousands of Wu soldiers and thought of retreating from afar. Suddenly, a Wei army broke out next to the road, and the number was more than 10,000! The first veteran general, white beard, floated with his eyes and shouted: "Lu family boy, do you recognize Wang Ji!" Before he finished speaking, more than 10,000 Wei soldiers rushed up and fought with Wu Bing.
Most of the thousands of people were Wu soldiers who gathered around. In order to avoid floods and escape, most of them threw away their weapons. Now they have met the Wei army. How can they fight with bare hands? Only hundreds of Lu Kai's tribe have not been damaged, and it is very difficult to protect Lu Kai from more than 10,000 Wei troops.
