"Soochow chasing soldiers?"

After the scout announced, Guan Ping couldn't help but be shocked for a while, muttering his thoughts.

"Why did the Wu army come so quickly, have you ever found out who the enemy will be in pursuit?"

Listening to Guan Ping's sharp tone, the sergeant who told him did not dare to slack off, and arched his hand: "Major General, the villains are inquiring about the news later, and they vaguely saw that the flag of the Wu army on the warship was the word "Jiang". ”

Hearing this, Guan Ping was stunned and muttered, "Jiang? Among the Wu army, who are the generals surnamed Jiang? ”

"Jiang Qin."

After thinking for a moment, Guan Ping suddenly felt bad at this time, he thought that if the other party pursued him, he would take the opportunity to fight back and crush Wu Bing.

But now that he thought that it was Jiang Qin, he dispelled this idea in an instant.

Who is Jiang Qin, who is he and Zhou Tai and Gan Ning are listed as the tiger ministers of Jiangbiao, how can such a character be easily defeated?

The key is that now that the enemy is strong and outnumbered, and the Wu army even has such sharp weapons as building boats, how can it compete with the hundreds of fighting ships and ships captured by the Jingzhou army?

Time passed, and I saw more and more soldiers in the rearguard returning, and then came to report the news.

In the Jingzhou military array, all the soldiers and even the generals were also panicking, but at this moment, Guan Ping was still thinking about it, and he was still struggling to weigh how to deal with it.

"Major General, the speed of the Wu army's warships is extremely fast, even if our army flees at this time, it will inevitably be caught up by the enemy, resulting in the collapse of the army."

"Ai thinks that our army should have its back to the river bank, form a whole army, and fight a water battle with the Eastern Wu army on the river."

"The winner breaks through, the loser is destroyed, and I hope that the major general will quickly make up his mind, time waits for no one."

At this moment, Deng Ai heard the outline of the Wu army's warship that had been vaguely displayed downstream, and he couldn't help but be anxious, and surrendered his hands to fight, without the slightest trace of fear in his words.

"De is also willing to fight, and he also asks the major general to give an order."

"Major General, give the order, we are not afraid of a battle, this time we will definitely kill Wu Gou, let them know the sharpness of the knives of my Jingzhou sons, and kill them completely frightened!"

When the words fell, for a while, Pang De and other generals also followed Deng Ai and asked for battle.

"Major General, we are willing to fight to the death, and please give the order."

Not only that, with the high fighting spirit on the faces of the generals, thousands of soldiers also roared loudly, and the momentum could be described as extremely strong, as if the river was full of voices of rejection.

Seeing this, Guan Ping slowly raised his head, his face was resolute, and shouted: "The whole army listened to the order, quickly boarded the ship, and marched towards Chibi." ”

As soon as this order came out, the whole army was shocked!

"Less... Major General, the ships of the Wu army are far superior to our army, and now that the matter has come, we should turn around and fight, so that we have a chance of victory, how can we continue to retreat? ”

"Once the enemy army is crushed, our army will definitely be divided and trapped, and at that time, the whole army will definitely be scattered."

"I hope the major general will think twice."

At this moment, the generals were anxious and admonished.

"Anyone, needless to say, act according to orders, and those who violate orders will be subject to military law!"

It's just that Guan Ping waved his hand, his face suddenly gloomy, and he said coldly.

Seeing this, the generals had no choice but to return to their respective warships, organize their soldiers, and then quickly drive the ships upstream and rush wildly.

At this moment, all the generals were at a loss in their hearts, panicked, they didn't know, what Guan Ping was thinking?

"Let's hope everything is still there, don't let me down."

As the warship was moving, Guan Ping groaned secretly, and his eyebrows became more and more worried.

After marching for a long time, the nervous soldiers finally entered the waters of Chibi, but at this time, Guan Ping waved his hand and said in a loud voice: "Order all departments to drive along the coast." ”

"And ordered Zhao Zhong in the front to pay close attention to the shore, and immediately report to the general if he finds the military village."

After arranging the military order, Guan Ping looked back, and at a glance, there was no trace of a ship except for the cold river.

"It seems that Wu Jun should not be able to catch up for a while."

At this time, Guan Ping muttered in a low voice.

After a while, the sergeant in front of him returned, and then said: "Major General, Zhao Du ordered us to return, and I told you that I was waiting on the bank of the river a few miles ahead and found an ancient village. ”

"Guzhai?"

Hearing this, Guan Ping suddenly showed joy on his face, and then shouted: "The whole army, move forward quickly, and move closer to Zhao Zhong's department and go ashore." ”

Chibi waters, on the banks of the river.

At this moment, Guan Ping stood on the deck of the fighting ship, looking at the majestic, but slightly mottled, ancient village on the shore, stained with traces of time.

For a long time, Guan Ping was overjoyed at the moment, and he no longer had the previous worries, and laughed loudly: "Haha, it seems that our army will not die!" ”

"Now that the water village is still there, the time for our army to counterattack Wugou will come in an instant."

A cold sound sounded slowly, Guan Ping waved his hand and ordered the whole army to drive the boats into the village, and then gathered the whole army, backed by the water camp, and formed a formation in front of the camp in the direction of the river, waiting quietly.

After the formation was completed, in the military formation, the soldiers still showed doubts on their faces, wondering why their major general was camping here.

On the water village, the generals gathered beside Guan Ping, Zhao Zhong couldn't help it, and couldn't help but say: "Major General, why are you here with your back to the water village and forming a formation?" ”

As soon as these words came out, all the generals looked at Guan Ping with doubts, wanting to get an answer.

"Huh!"

Seeing this, Guan Ping chuckled lightly and said slowly: "Everyone, in your opinion, with the current strength of our army, there is a chance of winning a water battle with Wu soldiers on the river?" ”

After the words fell, Deng Ai said slowly: "Young General, although saying this does hit our own ambitions, but in fact, it is indeed not. ”

"The Wu army pursued our army against the river with thousands of sergeants this time, and it must be a strong man, and the warships such as building ships and fighting ships equipped during this period are also readily available, on the other hand, the warships of our army are still some abandoned ships captured from Wuchang, Xiling and other important towns of the Wu army."

"With this alone, our army will be defeated in a water war!"

As soon as these words came out, although the generals didn't want to admit it, but when it happened, they had to nod slightly.

"Yes, what Shi Zai said is right, in the water war, our army is indeed not the opponent of the Wu army, of course, this is not only the lack of ships, but also the problem of combat power."

Hearing this, Guan Ping denied his own water warfare capabilities, and instead explained: "You should know that my Jingzhou army can organize more than 40,000 soldiers. ”

"However, there are only 10,000 soldiers who are really the elite soldiers of the navy, and these 10,000 sailors are still built by his father when the king of Hanzhong lived in Fancheng."

"After his father supervised Jingzhou, he often thought about the Northern Expedition to the Central Plains, breaking through Xudu, and rescuing the Son of Heaven, so the soldiers recruited later were usually trained in the way of northern sergeants."

"For the training of warships, there is very little time to cooperate, and now the soldiers I lead can be said to be the strongest in the Jingzhou army, and they are also the trump card division of my father."

"It can be said that even if they are compared with the Tiger Ben battalion under the command of Cao Thief, they are not inferior at all, and this is also the reliance of the generals who dare to go north alone with thousands of troops and come to Xu Capital."

"It's just that the flaw of this army is also obvious, that is, he has almost never trained warships, and he doesn't know how to fight in the navy."

A word, Guan Ping explained objectively.

"So, what does the young general mean is that if our army really attacks the Wu army on the river, it will definitely be defeated with one blow?"

"Yes."

After thinking for a moment, Pang De couldn't help muttering: "Young General, these soldiers are also from Jingzhou, they have also lived by the river since they were children, and they should also be people who are accustomed to water." ”

"Even if they haven't experienced systematic naval training, they should be able to fight against the Wu army, right?"

Hearing this, Guan Ping chuckled lightly and said: "General Ling Ming, no, you are a northerner, and you don't know the catechesis of water warfare. ”

"It is undeniable that water habits are the basis for forming a water army, but if a soldier is only good at water and has no experience in training, it is not considered a water army."

"After all, when a land infantry soldier fights, he needs to form a formation to meet the enemy and break the enemy with the strength of the formation, and in the same way, the warships on the water also need to be arrayed and cooperated, but a soldier who has no training can do this at all."

"Therefore, this is also the factor for me to retreat here and avoid fighting with the Wu army on the river, because the river is facing a battle, that is, to attack its advantage with its own weakness, which is a taboo for soldiers!"

"Oh, I see, Virtue is taught!"

After listening to the explanation, Pound suddenly realized that he would give up.

After all, he has lived in Xiliang since he was a child, and the most contact he has on weekdays is also horses and deserts.

After a while, Sun Wolf couldn't help but show doubts, so he asked, "Young General, how can you be so sure that there must be a water village here?" ”

"If there is no water village, then even if our army arrives here in advance, it will also have to fight with the Wu army."

As soon as these words came out, Sun Wolf could be said to have asked the generals' hearts, and after a while, several pairs of eyes gathered around Guan Ping's body.

"Uh, that's it........."
