Chapter 15: Suicide

【Broadcast】Pay attention to "Reading at the starting point", get the first-hand news of 515 red envelopes, and students who have not grabbed red envelopes after the Chinese New Year can show their skills this time.

Yingzhou, the governor of Chen State, Yingzhou Thorn Shi Lu Guangda stood on the city tower and watched the brigade of men and horses march eastward, and only then did the beacon fire on the Wuchang side send a message that the Jiangbei Zhou army was coming, and he immediately sent 5,000 people to support.

This was also in accordance with the prior agreement, since Chinese New Year's Eve, the king of Shixing, Chen Shuling, led his troops to the north to attack the Zhou State Bazhou Xiyang City, and the soldiers were defeated and killed, he transferred his troops to Wuchang City, across the river, to strengthen defenses.

Light defense is not a way, the north of Yingzhou is the surrounding border, and Xiakou is an important place, opposite is the Han River into the Yangtze River estuary, to beware of the Xiangyang Navy along the Han River into the river, so it is impossible to transfer the Navy to Wuchang to assist in defense, Wuchang is important, but Xiakou is more important.

So he made a plan for Wuchang to guard Fan Liang to implement: Wuchang's defense is going on normally, the Zhou army in Jiangbei will come if it wants to, as long as the other party crosses to the south, then the naval army stationed in Fankou will repel the Zhou army as soon as it attacks, and the Zhou army that crossed the river can neither capture the city nor escape, and can only be captured under the coercion of the reinforcements sent from Xiakou.

The plan is very simple to say, but there are two weaknesses in implementation: the first is the defense of Wuchang City, which has to attract the Zhou army to attack but cannot be captured by them, and it is best to make the other party feel that it can be captured with more troops, but in fact, it can't be captured, so it is hanged.

The second is whether the naval army stationed in Fankou can attack smoothly, in order to prevent the enemy from sneaking up and setting fire, most of the naval warships in Wuchang are in Fanshui, if you want to enter the river, you must pass through a river that is not too wide, out of Fankou, if the other party is blocking the river in Fankou, it will be troublesome, and it is very likely to lead to self-defeating.

In response to these two points, Lu Guangda also made arrangements: Wuchang City was quietly renovated to form an untraceable urn city in the east gate, and if the other party sent strange soldiers to seize the gate, the north gate or the east gate must be the first choice. He had ordered Wuchang to guard the north gate with heavy troops and deliberately set aside the weakness of the east gate. Once the other party attacks, except for the east gate, the remaining three gates must be blocked.

If the Zhou army can capture the East Gate, then the follow-up reinforcements must have crossed the river desperately, and they wanted to take advantage of the situation to take Wuchang in one fell swoop. However, when they crossed the river, they found that the east gate had been taken, but it had little effect on entering the city, and they could not attack it at all.

As for the second point, he has allocated manpower and material resources to Wuchang Taishou to ask him to repair the naval army camp at Fankou, and the warships stationed in the Shuizhai on weekdays can intercept the Zhou warships rushing across the river at any time in an attempt to block Fankou by sinking ships.

Fankou water surface sinking iron cable, if accidentally broken by the other party, the warship intercepted to enter the Fan water, then the iron cable stretched across the water, the other party wants to rush in, with these guarantees, as long as the Zhou army dares to cross the river to attack Wuchang, there is no return.

Lu Guangda deliberately arranged 5,000 men and horses to be 'on duty' in Xiakou, as long as the beacon fire on the Wuchang side was dispatched, and when the road of more than 100 miles was rushed, the navy of the Zhou State had already been driven away by his own navy, leaving the soldiers on the south bank to call the heavens and the earth unspiritual.

Yongxing in the northwest of Wuchang County has 3,000 men and horses, and Yangxin in the southeast also has an army to respond, plus the 5,000 men and horses he sent to cross the river, the Zhou army will stay on the south bank forever.

Then he personally led 40,000 sailors in Xiakou to deal with the swarming Xiangyang navy of Zhou.

If you are not stupid, the other party cannot be stupid, and Chen Guo's water army is powerful, so it is impossible for the other party to easily cross the river without considering this. Zhou Guobazhou assassin Shi Yu Wenwen wants to attack Wuchang, so how can his brother Xiangzhou assassin Shi Yu Wenming not send a naval army to help.

Over the years, Jiangbei has to move on the south of the Yangtze River is indispensable to the Xiangyang naval army, and Lu Guangda has been ready to meet the attack of the other party, he was appointed by the imperial court to envoy the governor of Ying, Ba, Wu, Yuan, Xin, Jing, Hunan Seven Prefectures of the military is already burdened with heavy responsibilities, if you can defeat the Xiangyang naval army in one fell swoop and annihilate the Zhou army that crossed the river, then at least one year can protect the border peace.

According to the detailed work sent to Jiangbei before, the report to the opposite side of the city is really a little abnormal, and the investigation of the main road suddenly became stricter, as the so-called want to cover up the other party is so nervous, afraid that people will know the inside story, Nalu Quanta concluded that there is a big move.

"Governor, Governor!!" A subordinate general ran along the city from the north, "There is movement in Jiangbei, there is movement in Hankou!" ”

"The Zhou State Navy is here?" Lu Guangda asked directly, and the general was stunned when he heard this, and then nodded vigorously: The sentinel boat on the river found that the Zhou navy army entered the Yangtze River from Hankou from the Han River, and its scale was not small, and the other party spread out on the Hankou River, and it seemed that they were waiting for the main warships to enter the Yangtze River and invade the south.

Han water was called Xia Shui in ancient times, so its estuary was called Xia Kou. But since Sun Quan of the Three Kingdoms built a city under the mountain on the other side of Xiakou and named it Xiakou, the original Xiakou was called Hankou, and the Hankou of later generations only appeared after the Han River was diverted.

"Hankow." Lu Guangda sneered when he heard the news: "Order." Beat the drums and let the water armament fight!! ”

"Light the beacon fire and send a message to the west, so that the Bazhou Navy will go out of Bailuo and enter the east of the river!!"

Chen's Bazhou is located on the shore of Dongting Lake, and its naval warships are moored in Dongting Lake, and Bailuo is the throat of Dongting Lake into the Yangtze River.

In July last year, the Bazhou Navy transported the army north to attack Jiangling, when the Yingzhou Navy wanted to defend Jiangbei and could not withdraw, and there was no need to help the war, although the Chen army was defeated and retreated under Jiangling City, but the strength of the Navy was not affected at all.

Lu Guangda was expected to attack the Xiangyang Navy of the Zhou State, but he still couldn't understand it, Yu Wenliang, who controlled the Governor's Mansion of the Four Prefectures, was now the imperial army of the Zhou State in the north, no, why would the Sui army make a move on Jiangnan now?

The Yangtze River moat is not a joke, even if the Zhou army's sneak attack on Nandu is successful for a while, but as long as the navy can't defeat Chen Guo's navy, then how many people the other party lands will be finished, Lu Guangda is thinking, Yu Wenliang wants to take advantage of the new monarch's accession to the throne soon to fish in troubled waters?

Fifteen years ago, Chen Guo's Xiangzhou Assassin Shi Hua Jiao rebelled against Chen Touliang, and together with Bazhou Assassin Shi Dai Seng Shuo, he threw the land of Hunan and Ba into Liang State, and Zhou and Liang sent troops south to station, and the imperial court immediately sent a large army to quell the rebellion by water and land.

The land army routed the rebels into Xiangzhou, Bazhou and the Zhou army fought fiercely, and Chen Guo's naval army first defeated Hua Jiao and Dai Seng Shuo's naval army at Bailuo, and then defeated Zhou's Xiangyang naval army on the river near Xiakou.

The tens of thousands of Zhou troops who crossed the river and besieged Xiakou had no way back, and wanted to retreat to Xiangzhou, but they learned that there was no way to retreat and could only surrender, Lu Guangda didn't believe it, Yu Wenliang didn't remember this past, so it was a little incredible that the Zhou army dared to attack south when the naval army had no advantage.

The pressure of the Sui army in the north was so great that it was nerves to cross the river to invade the south, even if Yingzhou was captured, then the imperial court sent a land and water army to march together, as long as the water army controlled the Yangtze River, then the Zhou army that stayed in the south of the Yangtze River had only a dead end.

Liang's navy was beaten to tatters last year, and now it's no better than rags, so there's no need to defend against it, just by relying on that Xiangyang navy, they want to control the Yangtze River? Even if you can beat my 40,000 Yingzhou naval army, don't think about carrying down the Bazhou naval army that follows, your soldiers are all folded here, if the Sui army goes south, what will you resist?

The Jiangzhou garrison in the east of Yingzhou will definitely be able to receive the beacon fire message from Wuchang and be ready, even if the Zhou army in the south can capture Wuchang and repel the Yongxing and Yangxin reinforcements who rushed to reinforce at the first time, but the next Jiangzhou reinforcements may not be able to withstand it.

Dare to come to Jiangnan to stab the hornet's nest, you are killing yourself!
