Chapter 197: Water and Land Echoes (Part 2)

Updated: 2012-09-23

Guangling County belongs to Xuzhou, and there are four counties in the counties: Ling County, Haixi, Huaiyin and Huaipu. The seven counties of Guangling County, Jiangdu, Gaoyou, Ping'an, Dongyang, Sheyang and Yandu in the late Han Dynasty were all abandoned. The root cause was that at the end of the Han Dynasty, the Sun clan in Jiangdong was strong. At that time, Chen Deng, the prefect of Guangling appointed by Cao Cao, did not dare to go to Gaoyou to guard, but retreated to Sheyang. Later, Cao Cao was even more worried that the Wu army would continue to plunder the people, so he simply abandoned the old land of Guangling one by one.

The Wu State did not accept the people and dared not occupy its land. It could only retreat to Lu'an and other places. The Wei State abandoned hundreds of miles of land, which also used this to prevent Sun Wu from being attacked from time to time.

Now, there are only ruins left in the abandoned city, but the Guangling war has restarted!

Teng Xiu supervised 30,000 naval troops to sail north, riding the wind and waves all the way to attack Guangling. After several twists and turns along the way, he finally arrived at Sikou. Sikou is the sea entrance to Guangling County, which is suitable for a large number of warships to enter and exit the inland. Teng Xiu's target clearly commands the warships to enter and invade Guangling County!

The Wei Navy was also stationed in Sikou to train, and countless shipyards built warships. The soldiers and craftsmen were busy, but they did not expect the Wu army to come here at this time! The Sikou Navy was shocked when he heard the news. While sending people to report to the nearby Huaiyin County, he gathered 20,000 naval troops and came to fight in large and small warships!

Teng Xiu was the main general of the Jiangdong Navy at that time. The strength of the water battle was so strong that Jiangdong would not be the second person. Liu Chan ordered Teng Xiu to be responsible for the Guangling war. He did have real information! The Wei army went downstream and was preparing to attack the Shu army head-on. Although the Shu army attacked from afar surprised the Wei army, it was time to raise troops for a thousand days and use troops for a long time. The navy army that had been practicing for a long time was about to show its skills!

Countless warships of Wei Kingdom put down their fireboats and rafts from a distance, as a way to open the way to attack the Shu Han Navy. When they attacked from the sea, the Shu army also consumed a lot of energy along the way. At this time, seeing the Wei army's offensive fiercely, Teng Xiu did not fight hard. With a command, the Shu Han Navy turned around and ran away...

The Wei army was secretly suspicious when they saw it, but their own fire ships chased each other. Under such circumstances, it was difficult to reverse any strategy for the Shu people, so the Wei army carefully followed up with them. The Shu army was in front, with countless rafts and fire ships behind them, and then the Wei fleet. After a while, they left Sikou and entered the sea!

The Shu Han navy entered the sea and suddenly separated from left and right. The fire boat and raft behind him were uncontrollable. At this time, he ran into the sea along the water and became completely unthreatening. When the Wei army in the rear saw it, he knew the Shu army's plan. If he entered the sea so straight, he would inevitably be ambushed by the Shu army. The Wei navy did not dare to show off and hurriedly broke down and stopped in the Sikou waters.

The Wei army stopped, but the Shu army moved! After leaving the fire boat and the raft, the two separate naval armies of Shu Han merged into one again, turned back and rushed into Sikou, and the catapult cart was far away to shoot, and even put down more than a hundred clutches to assault the Wei naval army!

The Wei army was not willing to be outdone. Since the fire boat and raft were ineffective, they also threw stones and shot! But the Shu army continued to sprint faster, but the Wei army stopped in the water. One kept moving and the other was still moving, throwing and shooting from a long distance to each other. It was self-evident who had the advantage.

After awakening this point, the Wei army quickly adjusted, but Shu Han's fast boats arrived! These fast boats were all driven by the Jiangnan navy. The speed was so fast that it was hard to defend! The fast boat was loaded with a crossbow! After approaching the Wei ship, the iron arrows on the crossbow cart were fired in response to the sound, shooting on the Wei warship, and suddenly pierced a hole! Several iron arrows were continuously fired, and three or five fast boats attacked the same warship. The bottom of the Wei warship was suddenly full of holes, and some had already begun to seep water...

Opening the gap is just the first step, and then the Shu army on the fast boat began to set off rockets! Fire is the nemesis of the navy. It is difficult to put out the fire. The Wei army ran to the side of the ship to shoot arrows and kill the Shu army. However, after the fast boat mission was completed, it wandered between the large and small warships of the Wei army. It was very flexible and difficult to kill!

As a result, the frontal impact and attack of the main warships of Shu Han made the Wei Kingdom sway and suffered frequent injuries. The Wei army leaned on the side of the ship and aimed at the fast boat. As the hull was bumping, there were many people who turned around and fell into the water. The rest hurriedly left the dangerous place, but the huge rock crossbow arrows from the sky were just based on personal fortune.

The most important opportunity for water battles is the most important. As soon as the battle is fought, it suppressed the Wei army's arrogance and suppressed the opponent's offensive. The Shu army is even more comfortable to carry out. But seeing the black smoke surrounds and thick smoke rolling on the water, the 20,000 Wei navy can't resist the fierce rushing of the Shu army, and it actually began to retreat!

"The Wei people are timid and not afraid! We will die and never return in this battle!" Teng Xiu waved his sword and swore, the three armies were excited, and the Shu army pursued the Wei ship against the current and clenched!

The war here had long been spread to Huaiyin County. Shi Lang, the prefect of Huaiyin of Wei, could not help but be surprised when he heard the news. Guangling had not encountered any war in many years. He heard that the Shu army was sent to Huaihe River and had the remaining strength to harass Guangling. He felt that the situation was serious, and Shi Lang did not dare to neglect it. He hurriedly sent people to inform all localities to come for support. He ordered 3,000 troops and collected a total of 6,000 nearby troops, and hurried to the Si Port to help the battle.

At this time, the Wei Navy retreated, and the Wei Water Village, which was left here, was also on alert. The gate of the water camp allowed its own ships to enter the inner city to rest. The warships of all sizes in the water camp were ready to throw stone bows and crossbows, ready to attack the Shu army head-on!

Unexpectedly, after the fireworks, no Shu Han warships were chasing. The Wei army was in amazement and doubts, and the sound of killing sounds were everywhere on the land! The general of Shu Han, Teng Xiu, had already led 15,000 Shu troops to land on the way, and actually came from land!

Shi Lang couldn't help but angrily and said, "The people of Shu bully people too much!" He didn't answer at the moment and led his troops to fight!

This place is not only a water camp, but also countless shipbuilding factories and craftsmen. These are the lifeblood of the Great Wei naval army and must not be misunderstood. Knowing that the Shu army is not good and has many troops, Shi Lang gritted his teeth and fought to the death, fighting against the Shu army!

Seeing that his own soldiers were defeated and were at a disadvantage, the Wei army in the water camp also hurriedly landed to help the battle. However, the Shu Han navy, who was waiting for an opportunity, suddenly came suddenly and caught the Wei army off guard again! A big fire, the water camp was destroyed, and only a few ships of the Wei army fled, and it was difficult to resist the bravery of the Shu army on land.

Shi Lang still had to fight to the end, but the navy had collapsed. As the craftsmen ran and fled, there were even more troops stationed with weak combat power. Shi Lang's three thousand troops were killed or injured, and he was unable to continue the battle. As a last resort, Shi Lang sighed and had to lead his troops to Huaiyin County for discussion.

Not half an hour after retreating to the city, suddenly the remaining naval forces of Wei came to report that the Shu army had plundered them and sailed along the waterway, and they rushed to Haixi County!

Shi Lang was shocked when he heard this: "Haixi is the place where Guangling stations have grain. There are countless money and food, and it is very rich. You must not lose it!"

The Huaiyin envoy just went to Haixi to inquire. If the Haixi defenders came to Huaiyin, they were attacked by the Shu army on the waters, wouldn’t that be a disaster?!

Shi Lang was anxious and did not care that the defeated army had not yet been collected. He rushed to Haixi with more than 2,000 people, hoping that he could stop the Shu army.

Because of the convenient waterway, Guangling County is a large-scale producer in Xuzhou. Because of the convenient waterway, nearly half of Xuzhou's military rations are stored in Haixi and sent from Haixi to Lianghuai. The intention of the Shu army's drunkard is not to wine, nor to Huaiyin, but to the grain route of Wei's army in Lianghuai area!

Two thousand Wei troops rushed to Haixi in anger. On the way, there was a sudden gong sound, and a Shu army next to the road rushed out and cut into the Wei army's formation, very brave!

But seeing a general of Shu, with a beautiful face, a long beard floating, and a heroic appearance, it was Luo Xiu, a general of Shu Han! Luo Xiu dribbled his gun and led his troops to charge. The Wei army had just been defeated, and two thousand people gathered in a hurry. In addition, he was rushing to go, how could he withstand the Shu army's freedom to wait for work? He was immediately defeated by Luo Xiu...

Shi Lang suffered several defeats in one day and was very angry. He didn't want to escape in the chaos. With a big sword, he rushed towards Luo Xiu and came to fight his life!

Luo Xiu was trying to defeat the Wei army, but he was not interested in fighting when he saw his goal. He immediately abandoned the Wei army and retreated quickly. Shi Lang slashed and killed him, but he only protected two or three hundred people beside him. When the Shu army retreated, he felt that he had been injured and panting, and was scared.

The Shu army is coming with fierce momentum and its tactics are even more flexible. It is bound to be a wise man to plan it. It seems that it should not be underestimated.
