The reason why Cheng Pu and Tai Shici retreated to Chungu County was also because there was no way to retreat to the west bank of Chungu, and if they did not retreat to the county seat, it was very likely that they would be cut off by Zhang Yijun.

And the location of Chungu County is very delicate, it is southeast of Danyang Zhizhi Wanling, which is now Xuancheng. Lingyang County in the south, Moling and other places in the northeast, it can be said that it is a place of four wars, as long as you hold here, you can guard most of Danyang.

However, there is a flaw here, and that is the river. If the Jiangdong naval army is strong, it can be used as a forward position against the mouth of the water. But now, the Jiangdong Navy has not yet developed (historically, it has not developed until 203, and it will not be considered strong until 207), and Dajiang is about to be occupied by Zhang Yi.

Then Chungu will become an important area to face Zhang Yi's attack, as long as Zhang Yi wants to cross the river from the mouth of the river, then he will be the first to attack Chungu County.

Cheng Pu and Tai Shici also knew this, and they constantly sent people to patrol along the river to see if they were raided by Zhang Yi.

The scouts were constantly checking along the river, and suddenly found that the enemy army was coming from the west, and it was under the banner of Li Zi, which must be Li Jing's department. This area is near the mouth of the beard, Li Jing actually arrived here silently, and the scout hurried back to the city to report to Cheng Pu.

When Cheng Pu heard this, he also felt that the situation was serious, and immediately informed Tai Shici that he himself would lead his troops to the riverside first to prevent Li Jing from gaining a foothold. But when he arrived at the riverside, he found that Li Jing was already in full array, the infantry in front had lined up, and the archers in the back were already in position. Behind the military formation, more than a dozen large war ships stopped not far from the shore, constantly transporting soldiers ashore in small boats.

Cheng Pu looked at the number of soldiers on both sides of the enemy, Li Jing alone had more than 5,000 people in the formation, and he only brought 3,000 people, the enemy was strong and I was weak, and he was not sure that he would be able to defeat the enemy. As long as he was waiting, he sent someone to inform Tai Shici and asked him to bring someone over quickly.

Cheng Pu also wanted to use his bravery to attack the enemy formation, but he found an acquaintance in Li Jingjun's army, and that was Wei Wentong. The reputation of this fierce general is already well known to the Jiangdong Army, and Wei Wentong is here, and Zhang Yi may also be there!

Of course, Zhang Yi was there, and he was the first to get off the ship.

As soon as Zhang Yi got off the boat, Li Jing immediately brought Lei Xu over to pay a visit, "See the lord!" ”

"Haha, two, I haven't seen you for half a year, don't come unharmed?"

"Blessing to the lord!"

Zhang Yi talked with the two for a while and pulled the relationship. Wei Wentong, Lin Fengxiang, Shi Jin, Ding Feng, Yang Yanyu, Yu Min, Li Jin, Li Bao and others also got off the ship with people, and the soldiers also boarded the ship and went ashore, and began to build a water village and establish a large camp as a frontier position.

After Cheng Pu arrived, he didn't dare to attack, but Zhang Yi dared! He immediately commanded Lin Fengxiang, Shi Jin, and Ding Feng to attack Cheng Pu with 1,000 people each, and handed over the pro-soldier song of Yang Yanyu, Yu Min, Li Jin, and Li Bao to Ding Feng to lead, leaving only Wei Wentong and another pro-soldier qu to protect himself.

Lin Fengxiang, Shi Jin, and Ding Feng took Cheng Pu's army directly, Cheng Pu immediately led the army to resist, Zhang Yi wanted to repel him, so as to build a camp with peace of mind, how could he let Zhang Yi get his wish?

Cheng Pu is a powerful general under Sun Jian, known for his combat bravery, how can he be frightened back by a charge?

The two armies compete, and the brave wins!

Because Ding Fengbu was well-equipped, as the middle road, and there were many fierce generals, the two brothers Li Jin and Li Bao directly led people to rush to the front, and they tore Cheng Pujun apart.

After that, Yang Yanyu and Yu Min immediately led people to tear this hole even bigger, and in less than a cup of tea, they actually broke through Cheng Pu's military formation. Cheng Pu immediately led his own soldiers to the top to prevent the soldiers from being defeated and retreating.

Lin Fengxiang and Shi Jin intervened diagonally into the two wings of Cheng Pu's army, and the two fierce generals took the lead in the charge, and soon cut Cheng Pu's army into four parts.

Cheng Pu took the lead and went straight to the brothers Li Jin and Li Bao, who were the most brave in battle. When Li Jin and Li Bao saw that the enemy general was rushing over, the two brothers glanced at each other, and the great achievement was in front of them, and they immediately went straight to the past, and the two sides attacked Cheng Pu directly.

Cheng Pu didn't pay attention to it when he saw the two of them rushing over, and stabbed straight with the spear in his hand. Li Jin immediately held the shield and blocked Cheng Pu's spear, allowing his younger brother to rush forward. Cheng Pu's spear was specially made and sharp, and could easily pierce wooden shields. But Li Jin's shield was not wooden, but iron, which was forged by Tang Long himself, and was specially used to equip Zhang Yi's personal guards.

"Dang!"

Li Jin's shield suddenly deflated, pretending to be painful in his arm. But Li Jin still endured the pain and knocked Cheng Pu's spear out.

At this time, Li Bao took the opportunity to rush towards Cheng Pu, and the ring knife in his hand stabbed Cheng Pu's horse.

However, Cheng Pu's horse was also quite spiritual, and immediately dodged to the side, letting go of Li Bao's attack, and also bowed his head and arched Li Bao, knocking Li Bao away directly.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Cheng Pu immediately missed Li Jin and Li Bao, and killed behind the two. These two people also seemed to be fierce generals, and Cheng Pu was not sure to kill them in a short time, so he put them aside and rushed directly behind them.

Behind them were the personal guards led by Yang Yanyu and Yu Min, Cheng Pu crashed into it at once, and with his own bravery, he stabbed one person to death, but he was entangled by Zhang Yi's personal soldiers. Yang Yanyu immediately came over and commanded the soldiers, wanting to besiege and kill Cheng Pu. Cheng Pu saw that he was deeply surrounded, and immediately swung his spear to force the enemy back, and then turned his horse's head and wanted to retreat in reverse.

He can see that this is Zhang Yi's elite soldiers, and it is not something he can defeat at all. Now he can only retreat, reorganize the soldiers, and wait until Tai Shici comes over, and then discuss.

Li Jin and Li Bao were also surrounded by Cheng Pu's own soldiers, but the two brothers were familiar with each other, one on the left and one on the right, the two defended with shields, fought and retreated backwards, and after a while, they retreated into their own battle formation.

At this time, Lin Fengxiang and Shi Jin almost came over to rendezvous, and Cheng Pu immediately shouted: "Retreat!" ”

Jiangdongjun couldn't bear it for a long time, and when he heard Cheng Pu's order, he immediately turned around and ran. The third general immediately led his men to chase them out for about five miles, then stopped, collected the wounded, captured the prisoners, and then returned to the river to help establish the camp.

When Zhang Yi saw that Cheng Pu had been beaten away, he immediately ordered everyone to help set up camp and sent a large number of scouts. Cheng Pu will definitely come back, but he still needs to be careful.

Supplies were constantly being brought down from the ships, the camp was built little by little, the soldiers rested in batches, and after night, they took turns keeping vigil.
