The way to defend the city is honest first

Under the blue sky, hundreds of sails are flying in unison, and countless pairs of arms wave in the wide fleet of several miles to chop the waves towards the south bank of the Yangtze River, from here to the distance of Yubeipu and Liu Langpu on the opposite bank is eighteen miles and twenty-one miles respectively, according to the speed of the Han army fleet It will take about half an hour. These figures were obtained after repeated tests by the Flying Tigers before the war, and the landing battle paid more attention to coordination and detail, as can be seen by looking at the neat and fast movement of those landing ships.

At the forefront were the Flying Tiger Army's Aolong and Hailong ships, who not only had to escort the landing fleet, but also were responsible for sweeping away the positions set up by the Jingnan Army on the two beachheads.

The reason why these two places were chosen as landing sites was, of course, carefully studied by the Han army, and the depth of the water, the depth of the beachhead, and the distance of the impact were all extremely important factors. In the same way, the Jingnan army will also strengthen the defense in two places, setting up forts dozens of feet away from the beachhead, and on the river near the shore is to lay thousands of extremely sharp wooden piles with the top of the chip, which are generally only two or three feet away, and once the ship passes, the bottom of the ship will be pierced by the wooden stakes!

Generally speaking, attacking the enemy's key defensive areas will always receive the greatest backlash, and it seems that the Han army should not choose the landing site here. However, Liu Yi is proficient in the art of war after a hundred battles, and there are several wise men under his command to give advice, and the battle of Chibi is carefully arranged by the collective efforts, and the three-way army is interlocking and echoing each other, so naturally there will be no mistakes.

"Commander Zhang, Tie Niu, it's up to you for a while, and I've broken those obstacles." The Han army's Aolong ship is not only huge, but also extremely fast, less than half an hour, Xu Huang, Zhang Jun and Li Tieniu and others have arrived at the river less than 100 steps away from the beachhead of Liu Langpu, after observing the enemy situation for a while, Xu Huang said to the generals around him.

Today's battle is not trivial, the Xuanwu army is mainly attacking Yubellypu, and the Longxiang army is Liu Langpu, so the battle as the head of the army Xu Gongming naturally has to take the lead, if you talk about the military regulations of the general Xià can not be dangerous, he still has a hearty words, General Xuan has suppressed the Jingnan naval army, a certain on this proud dragon ship is as stable as Mount Tai, how can it be dangerous? In fact, every time there is a big war, Xu Gongming is the only one who commands at the front? It is very important for the general to keep abreast of the situation on the front line during the landing battle.

"General rest assured, with Commander Li personally leading the equipment battalion to watch, those guys in the Jingnan Army have to be shrunken turtles and dare not move, and I can clear the obstacles under the river in half an hour!" When Zhang Jun heard this, he immediately replied, and then with a wave of his right hand, dozens of people on the six or seven sea dragon ships went into the water and swam towards the shore, these were the most proficient people in the Flying Tiger Army, but seeing that they were all bare-chested, holding a cold and shining blade, they wanted to sweep away those wooden stakes under the water.

The Flying Tiger Army and the Jingnan Navy have been facing each other across the river for three or four years, and the opponent's every move will be carefully investigated, and with the help of Tian'er, the defense details of such a key strategic area as Liu Langpu and Yubellypu will never be let go. In fact, in January of the opening of the war, the destruction of these two defenses had already begun, but the strength was not too strong, and Liu Yi also had to use the method of virtual and real!

"Well, if the enemy army is out of the village, our army has a sky-bombing cannon near the cloud piercing bow, and the river beach is also quite empty, and its damage will be large, but I heard Mr. Guo say that there are nearly 1,000 sharp wooden stakes near the shore of Liu Langpu, and Commander Zhang can sweep them away without half an hour?" Xu Huang said that with the survival of the Vermilion Bird Battalion and the White Tiger Battalion, it was the nightmare of all the defenders, and the fortifications in Qingzhou, Jiange, Jiameng Pass and other places proved that the Han army was invincible, and it was even stronger five years later.

"Don't hide it from General Xu, the enemy's method of using this wooden stake seems to be clever, but in fact it is vulnerable, the wood float and water, the bottom of the river is mud and sand, it is difficult to lay a solid foundation, and the undercurrent in the river is constantly washing, we have done it before, two people with high water nature can uproot the three or four zhang stakes, Jingnan Army's move can be described as thankless? Want to stop our army with this? Dream big for him. Zhang Jun said proudly, mentioning this method of stake is also disdainful.

"Okay, sure enough, as Commander Zhang said, if it goes on like this, it won't take half an hour, Iron Bull Wang Fei, you two must be ready to attack the enemy army at any time, and you can't let them go out of the village before we land!" Just as Zhang Jun spoke, Xu Huang had already seen black wooden stakes appear on the river one after another, obviously the Flying Tiger sergeants who entered the water had already achieved results, and after shouting hello at the moment, he gave an order to the second battalion of the Vermilion Bird White Tiger, they were also the key to this battle.

"General rest assured, with my second battalion in them, they don't want to take a step out of the village, or I want to see how many soldiers the little overlord and Zhou Gongjin have to fill in!" Li Tieniu said confidently, today he also specially brought thousands of thunderbolt canisters, ready to burn the opponent's camp, once the Han army's frontline troops can successfully land and gain a firm foothold, all the equipment will be continuously transported across the river.

Xu Huang bowed his head slightly, looked at the river and stopped talking, in fact, Zhang Jun said that the Jingnan Navy was thankless, these wooden stakes near the shore are still quite effective in blocking the warships, but it is the advantage of the Han army's equipment that makes the other party have no way to send soldiers to intercept it, and the Flying Tiger Army can complete the work of removing obstacles in a good time, if there is no long-range suppression of the second battalion, a water battle will be staged on the near shore of this river beach!

Seeing that the wooden stakes surfaced one after another, Zhang Jun cast an inquiring glance at Xu Huang, Gongming nodded when he saw this, and the latter immediately ordered the watchers on the mast to blow the horn, and the dozen or so sea dragon ships that were originally in the front gave way to both sides, and the twenty landing ships led by Wang Erhu personally rushed straight to the river beach like arrows from the string, and almost at the same time, the Xuanwu battalion also launched an offensive.

"This Wang Erhu, who made him rush up in the first batch? You have to beat him with a baton. After the stake was removed, the landing ship had no obstacles and moved very fast, but it reached the beachhead in a moment, and the sergeants on the boat jumped off and rushed desperately to the shore, a man in black armor rushed to the front, Xu Huang saw at a glance that it was Wang Erhu, the general of the first battalion, and couldn't help blurting out, but he didn't expect that he was no different from him.

"Brothers, lock the gate of the enemy army for me and don't let them out." Li Tieniu's loud voice sounded at the same time as the attack of the comrades of the Long Xiang Army, if the enemy army wants to avoid the blow of the Sky Bombardment Cannon and the Cloud Piercing Bow to the greatest extent, the best way is to rush out at the moment when the Han army lands, then the distance of thirty or forty zhang will pass in a blink of an eye, as long as they can be entangled with the enemy, the Vermilion Bird Battalion and the White Tiger Battalion will throw rat traps, these Xu Huang and others have already thought of before the war.

More than a dozen Aolong Hailong ships of the Sky Cannon were fired in unison for a time, sprinkling countless head-sized stones to the gate of the enemy's stone village, and looking at the landing point of those stones was concentrated in the gate of the wall, five years have passed, the Zhuque Battalion's Sky Bombardment Cannon and Xiangyang Cannon have undergone many improvements and innovations, and now they are completely displayed in accuracy, and under the command of Li Tieniu, those special shooters are all single-shot mode, if the enemy really comes out of the village at this time to attack, It will definitely be as Li Tieniu said!

"General, something is wrong, isn't it? Could it be that the other party is empty? Under the cover of the Vermilion Bird Battalion's bombardment cannon, more than 1,000 soldiers from 20 boats led by Wang Erhu had already boarded the beachhead of Liu Langpu, but the enemy's camp still did not have any reaction, and Ji Ling, the deputy commander beside Xu Huang, frowned and said, The enemy's appearance is not normal, could it be to induce our army to go deeper?

"The order is that the soldiers of our army will be redressed on the spot, and the attack will be delayed and ready for reinforcements." Xu Huang nodded and immediately passed down the military order, and only after the drums beat did he turn to Ji Lingyan and said: "Huang Gongfu and Zu Da Rong are worthy of being the veterans of the battlefield who followed Sun Wentai to raise troops back then, although they are not famous, but this perseverance is quite good, Wen Yuan has a saying, the way to defend the city is honest, and they are also their duty." ”

"What the general said is extremely true, with the advantage of our army's equipment and the strength of the navy, if I am Huang and Zu, I am afraid that the only way to gather and stick to the enemy is the best policy, honesty is the best, quite exquisite, General Wenyuan is the general of our army, it is really extraordinary." Ji Ling thought for a while when he heard this, and said admittedly, according to the military situation, the guards here are Huang Gai and Zu Mao, the veteran generals of the Jingnan Army, these two joined the Dong coalition army with Sun Jian twenty years ago, and they also have a relationship with Xu Huang.

In the Youzhou Martial Academy, generals like Zhang He, Xu Huang, Zhang Liao, and Gao Shun often have exchanges to learn from each other's strengths, for example, the short assault in the defense is from Gao Jingfang, and if the Han army talks about defending the city, Zhang Liao is the leader, the battle of Sili and the Han and Zhang coalition forces suddenly pressed the border, the enemy is strong and I am weak, and he can still turn the clouds and rain, laying a solid foundation for Liu Yi's annihilation later, and the Kaiyuan Emperor praised it greatly. In the battle of Hanzhong, in the face of the peerless hero Cao Cao, Zhang Liao also defended the city of Hanzhong like an iron bucket, creating conditions for Zhang He Wei Yan's surprise attack on the Meridian Valley.

In the face of a strong opponent, the word honesty on the defending side can be said to be true, and the lack of gaps in itself is the most headache for the enemy, which may be difficult for ordinary people to understand, but Ji Ling is also a veteran of the battlefield, once you think about it, you will feel that it makes a lot of sense.

"General, since the enemy army is like this, do you want to pass on General Pei?" As Xu Huang issued an order, Shi Huan on the side said, Wang Erhu grabbed the responsibility of the first attack, and the commanders of these battalions of the Long Xiang Army also came to watch the battle and understand the battle situation.

"There is no need for this, Yuan Shao followed the lord at the earliest, and he will never fail to see it, but in front of our army, even if the Jingnan Army is honest, how can it be said that giving up the attack on the beachhead is also a helpless move." Xu Huang waved his hand, and his words were full of confidence.
