311, Huang Gongfu single-handedly beheaded Zhang Yun and Wang Yanzhang first broke through Jiangling
Hearing this, Zhou Yu's face couldn't help but change, shook his head, and said to himself: "How is it possible? No way! General Zhang has an army of 10,000 under his command, if Liu Qi wants to be unfavorable to him, even if he can't defeat Liu Qi, he will definitely be able to escape! ”
After speaking, Zhou Yu suddenly looked at Zhang Yu, as if he wanted to see the answer in Zhang Yu's eyes. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Zhang Yu also sighed at this time, and said in a sad and helpless tone: "Governor, Liu Qi invited the lord in the name of the birthday banquet, and killed the killer during the banquet, and the lord didn't notice it for a while, so he was poisoned by Liu Qi's children." ”
Zhou Yu naturally still refused to believe it, "General Zhang is so confused? And even if Zhang Xiu didn't notice it for a while, didn't Mr. Jia Xu know the stakes? There must be something hidden in this. ”
"I don't know, but it's imperative to ask the governor to save my poor soldiers first!"
Zhang Yu pointed to his soldiers who were still struggling, and pleaded earnestly.
Zhou Yu nodded, he hurriedly ordered, his subordinate sailors surrounded Zhang Yunshui's corps, after a fierce battle, the Jiangling Naval Division had no general to supervise the battle at this time, and the strength was also inferior, naturally not the opponent of Zhou Yu's naval army, and the Jiangling Naval Division was defeated and retreated after a short battle.
However, Zhou Yu continued to order the army to follow closely, Fang Wending and Huang Gai each led a hundred boats to kill Jiangling from the left and right sides, and Zhou Yu led the rest of his troops to kill Jiangling from the middle road. At this time, the actions of Zhou Yu's navy had naturally been discovered in Jiangling City, but at this time Liu Qi was already dead, and Cai Mao took over all Liu Qi's original subordinates. At the same time, he hurried to Shuizhai to personally command the naval army to meet the enemy, and at the same time mobilized Wang Wei and Zhang Yun's troops to quickly come to help.
However, after Zhang Xiu's change, there are only more than 10,000 people in the Jiangling Navy Division at this moment, which is no longer enough to resist Zhou Yu's army. Cai Mao asked his brother Cai Zhong Cai He to lead 3,000 troops to meet Fang Wending, and ordered Zhang Yun to lead 3,000 soldiers and horses to meet Huang Gai, and he led the remaining soldiers and horses himself, preparing to fight Zhou Yu's army to the death.
Fang Wending was holding back his strength at this time, and his soldiers were also full of ruthlessness, seeing Cai Zhongcai and the army warship coming, he ordered all the soldiers to rush the ship directly towards the Cai army's warship, and then quickly jumped onto the enemy's warship under the rain of arrows.
Fang Wen was set to take the lead, and the soldiers under his command were not to be outdone, and jumped on the enemy ship one after another. Fang Wending held a spear in his hand and slaughtered all sides on Cai's ship, no one could stop him, and his soldiers were like wolves and tigers. When Cai Zhongcai and when had he seen such a battle, the two of them couldn't settle down when they fought together, and their hearts were already overwhelmed with fright, and they were in danger. Cai Zhongcai and his subordinates saw that the generals were already like this, and they had no intention of resisting, and they scattered and fled for their lives.
Cai Zhong Cai He saw that the situation was not good, and he didn't have time to give an order, so he jumped into another boat and retreated towards Gangneung. Cai Zhong Cai and dozens of warships of the 3,000 army were crushed by Fang Wending in less than an hour.
On the other side, Zhang Yun caught up with Huang Gai, after all, Zhang Yun has been in water battles for a long time, although Huang Gai has a lot more people than his own, but Zhang Yun still dispatched ships very steadily to resist Huang Gai's attack. Huang Gai saw the warship that Zhang Yun was on, and ordered his soldiers to sail the boat to Zhang Yun together. Zhang Yun understood Huang Gai's thoughts, and hurriedly ordered all the ships to fire arrows at once, wanting to stop Huang Gai's naval army from advancing.
Huang Gai pulled out his long sword, stood on the bow of the boat, and shouted at Zhang Yun: "Killing the enemy and making meritorious contributions, today, all the soldiers listen to the order, kill Zhang Yun, reward a thousand gold, and the official will be promoted to three levels!" Those who dare to fear the enemy's retreat will not be spared! ”
Huang Gai's impassioned words made everyone clamoring in unison and went towards Zhang Yun. Zhang Yun saw Huang Gai's location, sneered, bent his bow and arrows, looked at Huang Gai, and shot out with a whoosh. Huang Gai heard the sound and wanted to dodge immediately, but the arrow still hit Huang Gai's left arm steadily, Huang Gai was in pain, roared, swung his sword to cut off the arrow, and shouted: "Kill!" ”
The soldiers were all inspired by Huang Gai's momentum, and their eyes were full of anger. Huang Gai's ship finally approached Zhang Yun's ship, and with an order, all the soldiers began to forcibly board the ship. Zhang Yun was still a little apprehensive, but after all, Huang Gai only had one hand to exert force, and seeing that Huang Gai was not young, he was more sure in his heart. Zhang Yun swung his sword to meet Huang Gai, although Huang Gai was brave and imposing, but Zhang Yun only attacked Huang Gai's left arm, which made Huang Gai miserable.
At this moment, I saw Huang Gai suddenly scream, and the big knife in his hand slashed at Zhang Yun, Zhang Yun naturally dodged, and the long sword stabbed Huang Gai's left arm again. Who knew that Huang Gai didn't hide, Zhang Yun stabbed Huang Gai's hand with a sword, Huang Gai was in severe pain, and the big knife in his hand swung towards Zhang Yun like a thunderbolt, Zhang Yun couldn't draw his sword, and was directly beheaded by Huang Gai.
Zhang Yun's death finally gradually spread to the ears of the soldiers under his command, who had always been at a disadvantage, finally gave up resistance at this moment, some surrendered, and some fled.
The armies on both sides were defeated and retreated, and they were defeated so quickly, at this time, Cai Mao didn't expect it anyway, looking at the attacking Zhou Yu army, Cai Mao's heart was about to collapse at this time.
He ordered the army to begin to retreat, reining in the defeated forces of Cai Zhongcai and Zhang Yun, intending to shrink the line and wait for reinforcements to arrive. After a few more hours, Cai Mao saw that he couldn't hold on, Wang Wei finally led an army of 10,000 to rush over, and the addition of Wang Wei's new force finally made Cai Mao's army see hope and instantly counterattacked.
Zhou Yu saw this situation and knew that the army was tired at this moment, so he ordered a temporary evacuation, and he waited for Qi Jiguang's good news.
When the army north of Jiangling City was transferred away by Cai Mao again, Qi Jiguang saw that he had finally waited for this opportunity, so he immediately ordered the army to attack the north bank of the Han River again. When Zhang Xiu heard this, he also thought that he would take this opportunity to perform in front of Qi Jiguang, so as to use it as a resource for his career, so he asked to take his old department as the front. Qi Jiguang naturally would not refuse, although Cai Mao left nearly a thousand people here at this moment, but where was the opponent of Zhang Xiu and Qi Jiguang's soldiers, it only took one hour to wipe out all the Jiangling sailors on the riverbank.
With the soldiers landing on the shore, under the guidance of Zhang Xiu's army, they quickly attacked the north gate of Jiangling. Zhang Xiu took Wang Yanzhang to take the lead, and Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin under Qi Jiguang were naturally not to be outdone, and they all wanted to take the lead in breaking through the Jiangling City Gate.
The two teams chose a place to attack, one left and one right; There was almost no defensive force at the north gate of Jiangling City, and after a few hundred and ten people shot a few arrows sporadically on the city wall, they were all so frightened that they hurriedly ran down to report to Cai Mao.
After all, Wang Yanzhang was still familiar with Jiangling, he was the first to climb the city wall, and then quickly rushed down the gate, and after opening the city gate, Zhang Xiu's army and Qi Jiguang's army poured into the city.
For a while, Jiangling City suddenly fell into chaos, and soon, the news reached Cai Mao's ears and also reached the ears of the Jiangling defenders.
"General, the city is broken, let's withdraw our troops quickly! Otherwise, when Zhou Yu's army comes to attack again, there will be no way to escape! ”
After Kuai Liang learned that Qi Jiguang's army had broken through the north gate, he hurriedly came to see Cai Mao; At this time, Cai Mao was also at a loss, and when he heard Kuai Liang say that he wanted to withdraw, he immediately agreed, so he ordered the army to block the news and secretly led the army to evacuate Jiangling one by one.
When the soldiers heard this, they were relieved, but a loud voice sounded: "If Jiangling is lost, Xiangyang will not be defended!" I am waiting to receive the great grace of the Lord, and the reward is at this time! The last general asks to fight to the death! (To be continued.) )
