Chapter 543: Shipwreck

……

"My lord, do you want to land in Chaohu?" Zhang Zhao learned the news and immediately rushed over.

"Exactly!" Sun Quan nodded and told Zhang Zhao the news that Yuan Yao'er's wife, Lu Lingqi, was in Anhui City.

"Lord, will there be any fraud in this?" Zhang Zhao asked suspiciously.

"Probably not!" Sun Quan shook his head, "That Yan Chen has already confirmed, that woman is Lu Bu's daughter Lu Lingqi." If I can break through Anhui City, taking this Lu Lingqi can not only use it to threaten Yuan Yao'er, but also ask Lu Bu to kiss! Sun Quan told Zhang Zhao what he thought.

"Asking for a kiss? Lord, do you want to marry this Miss Lu? Zhang Zhao asked suspiciously.

"Wife? Hehe. Sun Quan sneered, "Mr. Zhang Zhao, you can't help but look up to his daughter Lu Bu too much, the daughter of a slave with three surnames, or has she been married home by Yuan Yao, will I marry him?" When I take Huainan and make him a concubine, I will promote him. ”

"Huh?" Zhang Zhao's eyes widened, using Yuan Yao's wife as a concubine? This is really a slap in the face, not only a slap in the face, but also a mortal enmity with Yuan Yao, as the saying goes, the hatred of killing one's father and taking one's wife is not the same as God.

"Lord, this Chaohu Lake is not as good as the Yangtze River, the water surface on both sides of Chaohu Lake is slender and narrow, if my Jiangdong Navy makes up for this, it will definitely not be able to be deployed? Chaohu Lake is not a suitable place for water warfare, once the soldiers and horses of Huainan appear on both sides of the strait, my Jiangdong naval army will be really uncomfortable! Zhang Zhao still wanted to dissuade Sun Quan from thinking twice.

"Mr. Zhang Zhao, I know what are you worried about? Is it nothing more than that I am afraid that my army will be ambushed by Yuan Yao'er's soldiers and horses on both sides of Chaohu Lake when it enters Chaohu? Sun Quan waved his hand, "But Mr. Zhang Zhao, don't forget, the current Huainan Army itself is difficult to protect, and he still has the ability to come and ambush me?" If he doesn't come, if he does, I will make him unable to go back. ”

Sun Quan has his own self-confidence, this Yuan Yao Xiaoer's main force was blocked by Cao Cao in Xuzhou, and the remaining aces in the Huainan army and the wolf cavalry and trapping camp also went to deal with Cao Cao, where did he still have how many soldiers and horses to fight with him Sun Quan.

In Sun Quan's view, the current Huainan is completely exchanging space for time, counting on Yuan Yao'er's main army to come back? It's just a dream, even if Yuan Yao opens up the road from Xuzhou to Huainan, so what, the first to bear the brunt is Cao Cao, and he Sun Quan just needs to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight.

If Yuan Yao's army can't come back, then he has the idea of annexing the whole of Huainan, as for who Cao Cao has an alliance with him? Joke, in the face of absolute interests, no covenant is reliable.

If Yuan Yao's main force comes back, he Sun Quan only needs to take Lujiang County, as long as he puts the army in the area of Shucheng and Jiashi, he Yuan Yao will bring 100,000 troops, and if he wants to regain Lujiang, it will also depend on his Sun Quan's face.

Seeing that Sun Quan was bound to take Wancheng, Zhang Zhao no longer persuaded him, and indeed even Zhang Zhao never imagined that Yuan Yao's army would come back from the sea, let alone that Yuan Shao would send 100,000 troops to help Yuan Yao perform such a play.

Sun Quan made up his mind, and soon his 20,000 sailors on the Yangtze River began to move.

All the warships began to raise their sails, with the ships in front and the ships in the back, heading towards Chaohu Lake.

Sun Quan himself also came with him, and there were thousands of warships before and after, going out from the port towards Chaohu Lake in waves.

Introducing Chaohu LakeChaohu City is located in the south of Hefei, surrounded by Chaohu Lake, one of the five major freshwater lakes. Chaohu City is located in the central part of Anhui Province, close to the Yangtze River, surrounded by Chaohu Lake, and bordered by Feidong, Quanjiao, Hanshan, Lujiang and Wuwei respectively.

Chaohu Lake has a long history and outstanding people. In ancient times, it was called "Juchao", "Nanchao", "into the soup and put Xia Ji in the Nanchao", which is from this, and the history recorded in writing is more than 3,000 years. The name of Chaohu Lake began in the Qin Dynasty,

Zhou Shi is the nest country. In the Spring and Autumn Period, it was a vassal state of Chu. Four to the east roughly east to Zhaoguan, west to the Lujiang River, south to the Yangtze River, north to Chaohu Lake. Chao State has been occupied by Wu State many times, "Spring and Autumn": In the twelfth year of Lu Ai Gong, "Guild Wu Yu Lugao", that is, Zhegao today. King Yuan of Zhou destroyed Wu in four years, and the Chao Kingdom returned to Chu.

After the unification of Qin, the county was placed, and the area around Zhegao was Lugao County, and the south of Chaohu Lake was Juchao County, which was also used as Juyan. Both counties belong to Jiujiang County. In the fourth year of Han Gaozu, he set up Huainan Kingdom and led the nest. In the fourth year of Emperor Jing, Juchao was changed to Lujiang County. The Eastern Han Dynasty returned to Lulu County, and Juchao was a feudal country like Liu, called Juchao Houguo. At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Yuan Shu occupied Huainan and re-established Juchao County.

Sun Quan just wanted to land from the Wet Whisker Dock in Chaohu Lake and directly pass through the Wuwei Stone Pavilion to reach the city of Wancheng.

On the land, the army of Lu Meng and Zhou Tai also crossed Chaoxian County and was heading towards Shucheng for a generation, just after the Jiangdong Navy arrived at the Wuxu Dock, it joined forces with the soldiers and horses on the land and directly took the whole county of Lujiang.

During the cautious period, Sun Quan still sent the vanguard first and entered Chaohu, but something happened that made Sun Quan happy, and the defenders in the wet dock did not have a few people at all, and the city on the side was full of about 1,000 people

So the vanguard army quickly took down the Whisker Dock.

After getting such a news, Sun Quan was completely relaxed.

Just wait for the army to take Shucheng, his navy army from Chaohu Lake into the Xuwu landing, with the army blocked in Shucheng, the Huainan army is to send reinforcements to support Wancheng in a short time, there is that time he Sun Quan is enough to take Wancheng to get Miss Lu.

……

Although Ling Tong's troops are a little reckless, but recklessness also has the advantage of being reckless, that is, Ling Tong's subordinates are highly motivated, and they are all stunned, generally speaking, the march of the army is about fifty miles, but Ling Tong's soldiers and horses can reach eighty, or even more, just by relying on the strength of hard work.

After Ling Tong received Sun Quan's order, he set off directly overnight, and by the afternoon of the next day, he had already arrived outside Shucheng City.

Looking at Shu Cheng under the banner of the Huainan Army in front of him, Ling Tong couldn't help but grin.

"Someone, prepare to attack!" Ling Tong wanted to hit Shu Cheng by surprise, but what he didn't expect was that Shu Cheng seemed to have taken precautions early, closed the city gate, and couldn't get out.

"Call me the city!" Seeing that the attack could not be taken, Ling Tong made people call the city.

"The Huainan army in the city listens to me, we are the soldiers and horses of Lord Sun Quan of Jiangdong who came to Huainan to assist the Han family in crusading against the ministers, and those who know each other should quickly get down the city wall and surrender, otherwise the day the city is broken will be the time when you die!"

In Shucheng, looking at Jiang Dongjun who was shouting under the city, there were many people in Shucheng who were holding back their anger.

"Lord, let me go down the city wall and chop up this troublesome boy!" The first one who couldn't hold back was Wu Anguo. Wu Anguo's temper is violent, this Jiangdong has hit the city, who can he afford not to kill him.

"No hurry, no hurry!" Yuan Yao was very indifferent.

His army had already known that Sun Quan was about to take the entire Lujiang County, so he set off from Guangling, and of course Yuan Yao's men came dressed as ordinary people.

Huainan was surrounded by Cao Cao and the Jiangdong army, and the people naturally ran to each other in order to avoid the war.

This is how the soldiers and horses in Yuan Yao's hands came to Shucheng, and the armory in Shucheng had enough weapons for Yuan Yao's army.

"This is the vanguard of the Jiangdong Army, what if Teng Lan you go down and slaughter this Ling Tong and scare our Sun Quan children?" Yuan Yao asked with a smile.

"This!" Wu Anguo didn't expect such a point.

"Let him call and call again, and wait for Lu Meng and Zhou Tai's soldiers and horses to arrive and settle the accounts together!" Yuan Yao said to Wu Anguo.

"Yes!"

"By the way, did Dong attack their soldiers and horses?"

"Counting the hour, it should have left the port!" Gan Ning said to Yuan Yao from Yuan Yao's side.

"Good!" Yuan Yao nodded: "Xingba, did you tell Dong Xi?" Don't feel sorry for the warship this time, as long as he can sink the warship to the bottom of the river for me, I will change him as much as he sinks. Yuan Yao was afraid that Dong Raid would be reluctant to warship, after all, what was more important to a navy than a warship? It's like the cavalry killed their horses.

"Don't worry, lord, Dong Xi is not a person who doesn't know how to measure!"

"Yes!" Yuan Yao nodded, Yuan Yao was still a little worried, Lu Lingqi.

Yuan Yao's head appeared in such a heroic little girl, when Lu Bu escaped from Yanzhou, he actually wanted to occupy the magpie's nest and forcibly seize his Yuan Yao's Huainan.

But he was countered by Yuan Yao, if it weren't for this little girl, I'm afraid Yuan Yao would have killed Lu Bu a long time ago.

For Lu Bu, Yuan Yao admires it, after all, he is the number one military general in the world, but if it also threatens his life, then no matter who you are, you will have to die.

Now this little girl actually went to Anhui City in danger, and Yuan Yao said that it was false if she didn't owe it.

"No matter what Yuan Zhi is, even if I don't want the entire Lujiang, I have to protect my wife!" Yuan Yao This is the first time that he has called Miss Lu Da as his wife in public.

"Yes!" Xu Shu also nodded solemnly.

Under the city of Shucheng, Ling Tong saw that the defenders of Shucheng were so ignorant, and immediately waved his hand and prepared to attack.

"General, General Lu said that if you can't take advantage of his unpreparedness to catch the enemy by surprise, then wait for General Lu Meng's arrival!"

"Wait? I don't know when Brother Lu comes, don't worry about this Shucheng is only two or three thousand old, weak, sick and disabled, if this can't be taken down, how can I Ling Tong command the troops! "Ling Tong has his self-confidence, no wonder, half of the Lujiang River is considered to be defeated by him Ling Tong, and now a mere Shucheng is not in the eyes of him Ling Tong.

"Pass my military order, and the whole army will attack the city!"

……

After Sun Quan entered the waters of Chaohu Lake, information came from above the river that the Huainan Army's naval army finally came out of the White Horse Lake, and it looked like he was going to Chaohu Lake to prevent Sun Quan's naval army from entering.

"Haha, Yuan Yao'er is really in a hurry." Sun Quan laughed out loud after getting the news, more and more evidence is already showing that Yuan Yao's Huainan Army is already as strong as the end, as long as he Sun Quan adds a little more strength, he can take Lujiang and attack Shouchun

"Where is Xu Sheng!" Sun Quan shouted to his generals.

"The last general!"

"Xu Sheng asked you to bring five thousand, no, three thousand sailors to find Yuan Yaohuai's southern navy, and annihilate them in groups!" Sun Quan is still very confident in the Jiangdong Naval Army, can he not have confidence? In this world, if the Jiangdong Navy says that it is the second, no one dares to call itself the first. Even the veteran Jingzhou Navy can't do it.

"The last general commands!" Xu Sheng soon left with the three thousand Jiangdong naval troops under his command.

Sun Quan didn't know that the dynamics of his deployment of troops and horses were all seen by Yuan Yao's soldiers and horses on both sides of the Yangtze River, and as soon as Xu Sheng's soldiers and horses moved, they were known by Dong Xian, who was still on the Yangtze River.

"Everyone, this Jiangdong Sun Ce really looks down on us?" Dong Xi told him about the dynamics of the Jiangdong Naval Army

As soon as I heard that the Jiangdong Navy had only sent 3,000 people, they were all filled with righteous indignation, you must know that they were a battalion of 5,000 people, but now the Jiangdong Navy has sent 3,000 soldiers and horses, doesn't this look down on them?

What was the predecessor of the Huainan Water Army? That's the Jinfan thief on the Yangtze River, who have they been afraid of? Back then, 800 water thieves dared to provoke the regular army, but now they are looked down upon by the Jiangdong water army.

"It's just right that he Jiangdong Sun Quan looks down on us!" Dong Xi is also angry, the purpose of their coming today is to block the Jiangdong Water Army, not to fight a decisive battle with the Jiangdong Water Army, if the Jiangdong Water Army is attacked, things will also temporarily avoid the edge.

The three thousand Jiangdong naval army, even if they are the overlords of the Yangtze River, are powerless to prevent him from blocking Chaohu Lake from east to west.

Two hours have passed, the Jiangdong Navy really has a brush, when entering Chaohu Lake, it is going with the wind, and out of Chaohu Lake is going against the wind, but it is against the wind and against the current, but the Jiangdong Navy is still heading towards the entrance at full speed, and when it is about to enter the tributary of the Yangtze River, the pioneer scout army over there sent a message that the traces of the Huainan Navy have been found.

"Where?" Xu Sheng happily asked the scout vanguard under his hand.

Originally, Xu Sheng thought that his Jiangdong naval army was useless? After all, the main force of Yuan Yao's army in Huainan was contained by Cao Cao in Xuzhou, and there was no one in Huainan who could resist LΓΌ Meng and Zhou Tai, and it was enough to take Lujiang with them, but he never thought that he would find traces of Mrs. Yuan Yao in Anhui City, so the lord Sun Quan changed his mind, and Sun Quan, who originally used LΓΌ Meng and Zhou Tai, pulled over the 20,000 Jiangdong naval army at once.

Now the traces of the Huainan Army have been discovered, although he Xu Sheng's subordinates only have 3,000 Jiangdong Naval Army, Zhou Tai is confident that these 3,000 Jiangdong Naval Army are enough to deal with a battalion or even more Huainan Army Naval Army, who let their Jiangdong Naval Army dominate the route for so many years.

As soon as he got the news of the Huainan Army and the Navy, Xu Sheng's first thought was to chase after the decisive battle.

"It's at the entrance of Chaohu Lake!"

"Is it really the Huainan Army's water army?" Xu Sheng himself also knew that what he was asking was nonsense, and now there are still in the lower reaches of the Yangtze River basin above the surface of the Yangtze River, and in addition to their own naval army in Jiangdong, there is only the Huainan Army.

"I've been investigating for a long time, and I've also sent water ghosts to take a closer look, and all the clothes they are wearing under the banner are confirmed by the Huainan Navy Army!"

"Good!" Xu Sheng was happy in his heart, "That must be the main force of the Huainan Water Army, pass on my military order, and the whole army will start broadcasting and rush up to the decisive battle!" Xu Sheng was not afraid of an ambush at all, because the Huainan Navy was killed, even if a battalion of soldiers and horses was ambushed, Xu Sheng was sure to retreat.

Xu Sheng immediately ordered the pursuit: "Pass the order, all the warships will move forward at full speed, and they will definitely stop Yuan Yao's army before they turn around!" "Xu Sheng is not afraid of the ambush of the Huainan Water Army, he is afraid that the Huainan Water Army will learn that Xu Sheng is coming, and without saying a word, he will directly slap his ass and run away, then it will be difficult for Xu Sheng and them to pursue.

Xu Sheng's naval army listened to the order, and one by one the flags were issued from Xu Sheng's warship, and at the same time, a small warship also headed towards Sun Quan's army, informing Sun Quan that he had discovered the news of the Huainan army, and also said that he Xu Sheng was confident that he would completely annihilate the enemy, so that the lord Sun Quan waited for his good news.

"The general is in front of Xianxi, do you want to slow down first and send someone to investigate?" Xu Sheng's lieutenant looked at the water in front of him and asked Xu Sheng.

Xianxi is the real entrance from the Yangtze River into Chaohu Lake, if you stick to this place, it will be really difficult for Sun Quan to annihilate the Huainan Naval Army.

"Don't slow down! Full speed ahead with me! Xu Sheng frowned, and then said with a big wave of his hand

It makes sense for Xu Sheng to let his subordinates move forward at full speed, before the vanguard scout found that Yuan Yao's Huainan Navy was not in Xianxi, and it was still before Xianxi, which means that this Huainan Army Navy has not held Xianxi, if it slows down now, it will give the Huainan Navy a chance, it is better to support the current army to move forward at full speed and take Xianxi in one go.

"Report! General Qiyu, the Jiangdong Navy is moving forward at full speed, and it is about to reach Xianxi! Dong Xi got the news again.

"Xianxi?" Dong Xian looked at Jiang Mian and smiled coldly, "This Xu Sheng really has two brushes, you want to reach Xianxi before me?" "If he Dong Raid is only here to fight Xu Sheng, then Xu Sheng will inevitably have the upper hand, because whoever masters Xianxi is considered invincible, but unfortunately he Dong Raid is not here for a decisive battle.

"Pass the order, and the whole army will turn the bow of the sailboat! Water ghost prepare! ”

Xu Shengjun soon arrived at Xianxi, and such a natural danger that the Huainan army could take advantage of was given to Xu Sheng's Jiangdong naval army over there in vain.

"Huh?" Xu Sheng immediately frowned, now Xu Sheng is finally a little calmer, and what is going back in his mind is what these Huainan Navy are thinking? Don't even want Xianxi, dare to send troops to Chaohu?

Just as Xu Sheng was thinking, news came from the vanguard scout in front of him, and he found that the Huainan Navy was turning the sails on the bow of the ship.

"Yuan Yao's Huainan Navy wants to escape?" Now Xu Sheng is "suddenly enlightened", no wonder this Yuan Yao's Huainan Navy doesn't even want Xianxi, he wants to escape, if this is the case, the whole thing makes sense, people don't want to fight you at all, why do you want to Xianxi.

So Xu Sheng was angry again under joy, are you Huainan Navy teasing them Jiangdong Navy to play?

Xu Sheng pursued at full speed, and soon Xu Sheng's vanguard was about to contact the rear of the Huainan Water Army, Xu Sheng's vanguard army rushed up, rampage in the formation of the Huainan Water Army, and the Huainan Water Army was difficult to intercept at all.

When Xu Sheng heard the news, he ordered the army to sneak at full speed: "Huainan Water Army? Haha, I think it's just a bunch of Huainan ducks going down the river. Xu Sheng's contempt for the Huainan Navy is beyond words.

Xu Sheng's main army rushed to the battlefield, and sure enough, his own vanguard army over there was rampaging in Yuan Yao's Huainan naval army camp, if it weren't for the fact that these ships were too small, I am afraid they would have been able to knock over those warships.

"Huh?" Xu Sheng suddenly discovered a problem, these warships of the Huainan Navy seem to be a little bigger.

Xu Sheng carefully distinguished, and couldn't help but be surprised, "These are all sea ships?" ”

The thing of sea ships is still spread from Jiangdong, before Yuan Yao extorted dozens of sea ships from Jiangdong in order to trade with Yuan Shao in Hebei, Xu Sheng still remembers it vividly, but he didn't expect these sea ships to appear here now.

Xu Sheng subconsciously felt a little uneasy in his heart, but he was still blinded by the atmosphere of the scene, this Huainan Navy actually used a sea ship as a warship? Isn't that a joke? The sea boats are pages and pages of flat boats in the sea, but if you want to go to this river, it is different, these sea boats are okay in the main stream of the Yangtze River, and they can't enter many places in the tributary river sections.

"Pass the order, and the whole army will attack!" Xu Shengke doesn't care if you are a sea ship or what kind of ship, now he wants to take down this Huainan army and navy.

"Is it time?" In the Huainan Army, Dong Xi asked the deputy general beside him.

"It's time for the general!"

"Good!" Dong Xi looked at Xu Sheng's army over there, his gaze seemed to have crossed the army and saw Xu Sheng, the commander on the opposite side, "Order, everything to go according to plan!" ”

"Yes!"

Woo woo woo made a roaring sound from Dong Xi's flagship, and the warships under his command began to wave flags in response one by one.

"This, this, this!" The scene that made the entire Jiangdong Navy almost choke to death appeared.

On the water surface at the entrance of Chaohu Lake, the naval warships of the Huainan Army are sinking one after another, yes, they are sinking. They haven't attacked yet, what are these Huainan naval forces doing?

"What's going on?" Xu Sheng also stood on the bow of the boat.

"General, general, look, look, those Huainan sailors are crazy, are they committing suicide?"

"Suicide?" Xu Sheng followed the adjutant general's hand and looked over, and countless Huainan Navy soldiers jumped out of the Huainan Army warships one after another, and after they fell into the water, their warships were sinking step by step towards the river.

Self-sinking at the entrance of Chaohu Lake? Xu Sheng was stunned for a moment, and then reacted, "This is not suicide, it's not good, they want to block us at the entrance of Chaohu Lake." Xu Sheng suddenly realized, this Huainan Navy is not afraid of his Jiangdong Navy at all and commits suicide, and he is not even afraid of death, is he still afraid of the enemy, they want to use the sunken ship to completely block their Jiangdong Navy in Chaohu Lake.

"Hurry, hurry, hurry, go back and inform the lord, the rest of the soldiers and horses will rush over for me, and I can't let them block the entrance to Chaohu Lake!" Xu Sheng roared loudly, and rushed forward with his soldiers and horses.

"Command the whole army, prepare for battle!" Dong Xi is not afraid at all, in other words, he hopes that Xu Sheng will fight with him even more, because no matter how strong Xu Sheng's soldiers and horses are, they are not much stronger, and their warships are all made of wood, if Xu Sheng's warships are also pecked through and sunk on the riverbed of this Chaohu Lake, it will be better.
