Chapter 1419: First Move
Sun Ce is indeed amazingly talented, and his strength is extremely strong, but Guan Yu is obviously superior, every time he couldn't kill Sun Ce before, it was because Zhou Yu had arranged the battlefield, so that Guan Yu had no way to fight with Sun Ce without distraction, and this time Guo Jia arranged the battlefield for Guan Yu!
Zhou Cang and Pei Yuanshao were all taken aback when they heard Guo Jia's words, and suddenly had no idea of asking.
"Strategist, the two of us will go now!" Pei Yuanshao took the lead and led more than 700 people from his headquarters to kill from the pontoon bridge, while Zhou Cang quickly retreated to gather Guan Yu's personal guards.
"Where is Wang Ping?" Guo Jia yelled at a group of soldiers.
"So-and-so is here!" Wang Ping stepped forward and said with a fist salute.
"Lead your troops to cross the river and block Sun Cebing's troops attacking the pontoon bridge from the upper and lower reaches of the land route!" Guo Jia said to Wang Ping, then thought for a while and said, "You and Liao Hua help each other, no matter who catches Dong Xi, the other person has credit!" ”
Wang Ping was overjoyed, he didn't expect that he would get such a great opportunity this time, and immediately after Pei Yuanshao's headquarters passed, he was ready to lead his subordinates to rush across the river.
"If the river is on fire, don't worry, you just need to take down the surrounding soldiers." Guo Jia continued to tell Wang Ping, who was about to run, that Wang Ping still has some barbarian habits now, such as this kind of behavior now.
"Whoa!" Wang Ping hurriedly stopped and replied to Guo Jia, but Guo Jia didn't say much, just signaled that he could lead his troops across the river.
"Liao Hua, no matter who you and Wang Ping solve the boats in the upper reaches of the Huai River, you can cross the river to participate in the next battle, as for what to do, it's up to you to judge!" Guo Jia explained to Liao Hua, but Liao Hua clasped his fists and didn't say anything.
"What's in charge!" Guo Jia shouted in the direction of Guan Cheng.
"So-and-so!" Guan Cheng stepped forward and replied.
"You will lead two troops and horses, and other soldiers will take the boat to the downstream, and after Sun Ce's water army landed, they will attack Sun Ce's water village, if they can take it, they will be burned, and they will be pursued after the matter is completed!" Guo Jia commanded at Guan Cheng.
"Sima Ju, Jiang Gong, after the two of you led the army to cross the river, they went straight to the lower reaches of Huaishui, and took advantage of the chaos to ambush Sun Ce's army to rescue the soldiers of the main village!" Guo Jia ordered to the Sima family and Jiang Gong, these people are all former Yellow Turban Qu Marshals, and leading thousands of people to fight head-on is almost what they are best at.
"Qu Gong, Du Yuan, Huang Shao, you take a detour to the back village of Sun Cejun, and after Zhou Cang's roar appears in the front village, you will lead the army to kill!" Guo Jia said to the remaining people.
"Whoa!" The three of them all yelled, and then led the army to prepare to cross the river with their own men after Zhou Cang crossed the river.
"Chen Chi led three thousand people by you, after Huang Shao crossed the river, he led the army to the downstream, and in the Jiang Palace, Sima Ju and Sun Ce's water army came to the rescue army and appeared as reinforcements!" Guo Jia turned his head to Chen Chi and explained.
"Whoa!" Chen Chi hugged his fists and saluted, counted his subordinates, and prepared to cross the river.
"Jiang Yan, Lu Zhe, and Li Qian left the three divisions, and the others were led by Sima of each department, and after Huang Shao and others successfully entered Sun Ce's back village, they attacked with all their might, if the three departments failed, you and others would attack with all their strength from the flanks!" Guo Jia gave one last order to everyone.
All the soldiers agreed, and then they prepared to lead their troops to rush quickly from the pontoon bridge.
On the other side, as Guo Jia estimated, not long after, Dong Xi and his party, who were used to monitor Guan Yu's movements in the upper reaches of Huaishui, suddenly discovered the pontoon bridge that appeared above the narrow mouth of Huaishui, and were immediately surprised.
"Not good!" Dong Xi immediately shouted after seeing this situation from a distance, and the Guan Yu army that crossed the river densely above made Dong Xi feel bad.
"Accelerate with all your might, and at the expense of the warship, I will speed up and break the pontoon!" Dong Xi roared angrily.
Dong Raid roared like this, and did the same, but unfortunately he had already ignored a lot of things in a panic, the place where Guo Jiadu Bridge was narrow, and the trebuchet had been arranged endlessly for many days, and when Dong Raid's flagship rushed into the shooting range first, nearly 100 stonethrows smashed over.
Although Dong Xi's flagship only suffered five or six shots because of the ethereal hit rate of the trebuchet hitting moving objects, the bed crossbow loaded with spears also nailed towards the ship in the next moment, and unlike the trebuchet, which relied purely on quantity, the bed crossbow was still somewhat accurate.
Dozens of large arrows directly pierced the cabin of Dong Xi's big ship, and even a crossbow bolt of a bed crossbow flew over Dong Xi's head, and the cold sweat instantly made Dong Xi wake up.
Struggled to retreat, but unfortunately it was only a short cup of tea to stop the inertia, and two of the five warships that were set on fire by a large number of fires were also directly sunk, although the other three were covered, but the projectile trebuchet relied on the face, and more than a hundred stones were smashed at a time, and there was always a hit.
"It's a pity." Liao Hua looked at Dong Xian, who only sank two ships and ran out of the attack range, and sighed helplessly, if he solved it, he wouldn't have to stay here now.
After withdrawing from the attack range of the Liaohua trebuchet, Dong Xi had the mind to think wildly, for example, during this time, Guan Yujun was not idle in shipbuilding, on the contrary, they added a lot of arrangements and did a lot of things, but none of them were visible to him.
"When you go ashore, you must pass the news to the general!" Dong Xi made a decision in an instant after withdrawing from Liaohua's stone-throwing range.
It was at this time that Dong Xi suddenly thought of a point, since he couldn't break through to the downstream by boat, and now he was going to abandon the ship and go ashore, why didn't he burn the boat on fire, and once he burned the boat, with Zhou Yu's intelligence, he would definitely understand.
Then Dong Raid remembered one thing, whether he burned one ship or burned all the ships, fortunately, Dong Raid was also witty, thinking that if Guan Yu came prepared this time, Zhou Yu was forced to retreat, and he who did not land was not blocked in Huaishui, so wouldn't it be a dead end?
After having this thought, Dong Xi immediately no longer hesitated, "Everyone spilled the reserved oil on the ship, ready to set fire to the ship!" ”
Dong Xi's ship was sprinkled with oil, and after all the soldiers landed, a fire ignited his warship, and then without looking back, he ran into the distance, preparing to make a detour to inform Sun Cejun.
But I didn't want to run a few steps before I found a group of people with big shields and weapons in the distance, and the black monsters painted on their faces rushed towards them.
As a result, without waiting for Dong Raid to inquire, a piece of knife light came towards him, Dong Raid held the knife light with a gun, but suddenly felt a strong attack, and unconsciously took a few steps back. (To be continued.) )
