Chapter 90: Confrontation

"Actually, I'm also gambling, betting that Dongwu didn't demolish this weather-beaten ancient village."

After a deep groan, Guan Ping also whispered.

"Gambling?"

As soon as these words came out, the generals were not optimistic, they originally thought that their generals must know that there was an ancient village here, but they didn't expect that he was also relying on luck.

After thinking for a while, Deng Ai couldn't help but think of something, and said softly: "Young General, what is the origin of this ancient village?" ”

"Looking at its water village, the wood in the village has gradually decayed, and it has been ravaged by wind, frost, snow and rain, and it is obviously not the original construction."

"Moreover, this water village stretches for dozens of miles, the scale is huge, and the connections of all parties are also scattered, and the generals who built this village must have the talent of generals."

At this time, although the Jingzhou army had not arrived at Shuizhai for long, Deng Ai had nuanced eyes and delicate observations, so he had this doubt in his heart.

Because, perceiving the extraordinary features of this water village, he became more and more interested in the general who presided over the construction.

"Hehe, this will definitely be familiar to you."

With a chuckle, Guan Ping muttered: "Chibi is the place where he became famous, and it is this battle that makes him famous and shocks the Cao army." ”

The words have come to this point, Guan Ping did not say any more, but the generals thought for a while, and then suddenly exclaimed in unison.

"Zhou Yu, Zhou Gongjin!"

Yes, what the generals can think of is Zhou Yu, who led the army of Jiangdong to overthrow the country ten years ago and defeated Cao Cao, who had hundreds of thousands of troops and swept through the land of Jingxiang, on the front line of Chibi.

After all, more than ten years ago, Jiangdong was able to set up such a camp, and it was none other than Zhou Yu!

When the words fell, Sun Wolf couldn't help but feel suspicious, and muttered: "After the Chibi broke the Cao thief, Cao Cao also retreated to the north, and it stands to reason that this ancient village no longer has the meaning of existence." ”

"Why didn't Sun Quan order the demolition after the war?"

Hearing this, Guan Ping's complexion remained unchanged, he smiled slightly, and explained: "This is also due to the fact that after Zhou Gongjin won the victory in Chibi that year, he did not stop there, but his power increased greatly, and he pursued and besieged Nanjun by taking advantage of the victory. ”

"Due to the geographical location of Chibi, during the year-long Jiangling offensive and defensive battle, this ancient village became the hub of Zhou Yu's army to store grain, and has been responsible for the transshipment of military grain."

"It is in this way that this ancient village can continue to this day, although it has experienced vicissitudes, it is also well preserved."

When the words fell, all the generals present sighed, and then muttered: "It's okay, it's okay, Sun Quan didn't order the demolition, otherwise the Wu army that our army encounters on the river will really be powerless!" ”

"It's the pole, it's the pole."

"Soochow, good guy!"

For a while, all the generals were happy and excited.

After pondering for a moment, Deng Ai's face was slightly worried, and he slowly arched his hand and said, "Young General, Ai understands your intentions." ”

"Because our army has a very strong land combat capability, you chose to form a formation with your back to the water village, so as to force the Wu army to go ashore for land warfare, so as to fully use your own strengths and attack the enemy's shortcomings."

"It's just that after thinking about it, Ai Si is still a little worried, if the Wu army comes, seeing that our army is already ready to go on the shore, will they still go ashore to fight as we wish?"

"After all, water warfare is the advantage of the Wu people, and land warfare is not their strength."

As Deng Ai proposed, everyone couldn't help but react and agreed, and Pang De also said: "What General Deng said is reasonable, what if the Wu army does not go ashore, but only blocks the shore with warships and confronts our army?" ”

"They only need to hold back our army and wait for the main force on the landing port to attack Jingzhou, then our army will not attack itself!"

Pang De's voice fell, and the rest of the people also discussed and discussed, seeing this, Guan Ping saw it in his eyes, and his smile was even stronger.

"Everyone, it's okay, this layer has already been thought of."

Hearing this, Guan Ping waved his hand, his face was not flustered, and he said lightly.

"This time, if Wu Jun is unwilling to give up intercepting our army, then he has no choice but to go ashore."

At this moment, he is also full of self-confidence, and his words are convincing, and he speaks loudly.

Seeing this, seeing that Guan Ping's expression and words were extremely confident, everyone knew that he had a countermeasure in his heart, and he did not continue to worry.

………

On the river.

At this moment, above the downstream, more than 1,000 warships are scattered on the river, with magnificent momentum and domineering, which can be described as extremely shocking.

On a tall ship, a general wearing strong armor and holding a sword in his hand, with a serious face, was listening to the military situation from the front at the moment.

"Report!"

"Tell the general, the forward of our army has slowly entered the waters of Chibi, but in the Chibi ancient village along the coast, an abnormal situation was discovered, and the Jingzhou army, which was pursued by our army, actually drove all the warships into the ancient village."

"Then, this Jingzhou naval army stood in a formation with its back against the water village."

When Jiang Qin heard this, he couldn't help but sneer, and said coldly: "You want to rely on the ancient village to fight with our army on the shore?" ”

I have to say that Jiang Qin is worthy of being one of Jiang Biao's tiger ministers, and this ability to take the battle is indeed not to be underestimated, but when he first heard the movements of the Jingzhou army, he had already seen through Guan Ping's plan.

When the words fell, a general from the side couldn't help but say: "General, the enemy army abandoned the boat and went ashore and formed a formation based on the water village, which must be to lead our army ashore and fight with it on land." ”

"According to the last general, our army might as well block the ancient village along the coast, surround it but not fight, delay time, presumably the Jingzhou army galloped back to Jingzhou, and the mood must not be able to drag it on!"

"At that time, they will still forcibly break through and fight with our army, and then they will be wiped out, what do you think of the general's move?"

"Well, you're right."

Hearing this, Jiang Qin chuckled and couldn't help but praise.

"However, the whole army arrived at the waters of Guzhai first, let's talk."

After thinking for a moment, he already had an idea in his heart, so he waved his hand and signaled the whole army to move on.

About half an hour passed, and the warships of the Wu army also galloped forward, arrived at the waters of Chibi, and confronted the Jingzhou army on the shore with their backs to the ancient village.

Seeing this, Jiang Qin slowly walked to the deck with his sword in his hand, looked down condescendingly, and observed every move on the shore.

After about half a sound, Jiang Qin couldn't help but turn pale, and said secretly: "This Jingzhou army is deeply and strictly, the sergeants in the formation are extremely strong, and the soldiers are even more closely coordinated. ”

"It seems that the Jingzhou soldiers are really elite soldiers, it seems that the land battle on the shore will not work, otherwise even if our army is finally defeated, the gains will outweigh the losses!"

At this moment, observing for a long time, Jiang Qin thought slowly.

This time, Sun Quan gave him an order, in addition to letting him lead the crowd to pursue the Jingzhou army and prevent it from returning to help, but there was another order.

That is, after defeating the Jingzhou army, it is necessary to continue to move north along the river and set up a defensive line to resist the Guan Yu army, so as not to let the main force of the Jingzhou army get the news that the rear is attacked and return to the reinforcements smoothly.

Therefore, at this moment, after Jiang Qin noticed that the Jingzhou army was strong, he also dispelled the idea of going ashore to fight hard.

"Preserving strength is the king!"

Immediately, Jiang Qin muttered to himself.
