441. The battle between the two armies began

At this time, on the side of Tai Shici and Huang Zhong, Wang Yuyan's response method is naturally an extremely safe military tactic, and it is also a perfect tactic to avoid unexpected changes, even if such a tactic will waste some time.

At the same time, Wang Yuyan also deliberately used the reason that Danyang City was guarded by more than 10,000 soldiers commanded by Zhang Ying to convince everyone that Danyang City would not fall so easily, so that everyone could also alleviate some worries about Danyang City in their hearts.

But in fact, even if Danyang City fell, everyone couldn't blame her, and it could only be said that Sun Ce's army was too crazy, and it could only be said that Sun Ce was indeed an enemy who was not easy to deal with.

Or Wang Yuyan's side has tried her best, but unfortunately she still failed to rescue in time.

Of course, now that Wang Yuyan regards Zhou Yu's incoming army as a great enemy, Wang Yuyan naturally arranged extremely prudent tactics in this battle against Zhou Yu, and in the end, Tai Shici, Huang Zhong, Bao Long, Yu Su, and Chen Heng also received orders to prepare their own troops.

In this way, when the battle of Bowangpo on Zhu Wei's side had just begun, Zhang Xiu's deception and surrender, Wang Yuyan's side finally sent troops from the Niuzhu camp to meet the so-called 50,000 troops occupied by Zhou Yu in Moling.

Of course, at this time, the Jiangling Navy under Cai Mao's command had also gone down the river to Jiangdong, but Cai Mao directly led his troops to continue eastward after receiving the military order sent by Wang Yuyan, and went directly to the direction of Wu County.

The battle between Zhu Weijun and Sun Cejun for Jiangdong finally kicked off.

Not to mention anything else, let's just say that the army stationed in the Niuzhu camp on Wang Yuyan's side was soon divided into two divisions and headed for Moling County.

The first part is the old pawn of Liu Xuan, commanded by Yu Su and Chen Heng, who seems to have become the vanguard army, and the goal is directly aimed at the front of Zhou Yu set up in Moling County, as if he wants to attack the Moling defense line set up by Zhou Yu.

And the second part is the 5,000 soldiers of the Chinese military camp personally commanded by Wang Yuyan, plus the 3,000 auxiliary soldiers and civilians temporarily recruited, and then Huang Zhong followed Wang Yuyan's side and became the general who led the army to charge, as for Huang Zhong's 5,000 soldiers transferred from Yuzhang before, they stayed in the Niuzhu camp to replace the original Chinese military camp soldiers, and Baolong guarded this material storage base.

In addition, the 12,000 soldiers of the Divine Arrow Battalion commanded by Tai Shi Ci were divided into 2,000 archers and 2,000 crossbow archers, which were also temporarily returned to the Chinese army formation on Wang Yuyan's side, and there were about 4,000 sword and shield fighters and 4,000 bows and crossbowmen, but they disappeared with Tai Shi Ci in the sequence of this dispatch, and left the Niuzhu camp by boat, which seemed to have disappeared.

In this way, half a day later, the old pawn of Liu Xuan, who was handsome by Yu Su and Chen Heng in front, was less than five miles away from Moling County, and the scouts sent by Yu Su and Chen Heng and Zhou Yu outside met in front of them, and some tentative battles were launched.

This Moling county is located on the south bank of the Yangtze River, and there are many rivers that branch off from the Yangtze River around it, including the Qinhuai River in later generations, forming a watertown landform in the south of the Yangtze River with abundant water sources, and many places need bridges to cross the river.

Because this area is also a place where Han people have been developed for a long time, the surrounding forests have basically been cut down and turned into villages and mansions.

However, with the outbreak of war, many ordinary people fled their homes to avoid the scourge of war, so many villages have now become deserted.

Originally, some local scholars and powerful families in Jiangdong could still rely on their own dock manor like a small city to gather people to guard, even in times of war, you can also see some dock forts in some fertile farms that are closed to protect themselves, and you can find the smell of people.

But this time, Zhou Yu forcibly requisitioned all the young and strong people around Moling County, and collected all kinds of grain and grass materials that could be collected, so even those scholars and Haoqiang families would not be easily let go, so even if they were some Wubao manors with a certain ability to protect themselves, there was no one in sight now, and many Wubao were directly abandoned and burned down.

Now the people who can stay in this area are mainly Zhou Yu's soldiers who are ordered to be stationed everywhere and the scouts on both sides who are running everywhere, and only they dare to walk and stay in this territory in the open.

Others can only occasionally see some remnants of the old and weak people, like voles lingering in the village where they originally lived, once they hear the movement of outsiders, they will immediately hide in the secret rooms, cellars, etc., and dare not meet outsiders.

Zhou Yu's defense line in the Moling County area has been stretched out to three miles away from the county town of Moling County, and many defense lines are set up by the river, with the help of the rivers that divide the earth, and with the help of the shallows and bridges that pass through the river, as a front to block the advance of Zhu Wei's army.

Although most of the soldiers on Zhou Yu's side were private soldiers of various ethnic groups and young men who were coerced, and lacked training and combat effectiveness, with the help of these defensive lines, they could still fight a dozen.

However, Wang Yuyan sent Yu Su and Chen Heng with Liu Xuan's old pawns as the forwards, but also with their familiarity with the Danyang area, so that they could find the best route to Moling, such as some rivers can directly wade through the water, for example, some rivers can find narrow channels, and use the fastest time to build pontoon bridges to pass through and so on.

In addition, they can also find some routes that outsiders don't know, avoid the defense lines set up by Zhou Yu, and directly kill behind these defense lines, so as to clear the way for the army behind, so that the army has a safe route to Moling County.

Now that Zhu Wei is not here, Wang Yuyan naturally can't use Zhu Wei's reminder through the Three Kingdoms game system to discover the movements of the enemy army, so Wang Yuyan can only send a large number of scouts to explore the enemy's possible areas.

In this way, Wang Yuyan did not hide the means of sending troops this time, anyway, she explored the way through the scouts in front, and then opened the way in the vanguard, and then marched in the direction of Moling County with the main force of nearly 10,000 middle military camps.

Although Liu Xuan's old soldiers, who were in the vanguard of Yu Su and Chen Heng, who were at the forefront, were not considered the elite of Liu Xuan's army, they were regular soldiers who had received training after all, so when they encountered some Zhou Yu's outer defense line in Moling, they could easily break through some defensive lines with simple terrain with the help of the number of troops.

Even if they encountered a terrain disadvantage, they really couldn't easily break through the past defense line, Wang Yuyan would also send Huang Zhong to lead the archers and crossbow archers of the Divine Arrow Battalion to help suppress Zhou Yu's soldiers guarding the defense line with bows and crossbow arrows, so as to help Yu Yu and Chen Heng continue to lead troops to break through the past.

It can be said that the process of clearing the outer defense line of Moling County, although it cannot be regarded as a one-place process, cannot stop the advance of Zhu Wei's army, and at most it delays the advance of Zhu Wei's army a little bit.

This is what Zhou Yu wants to achieve, but it is also something that Wang Yuyan doesn't care about...... [.]
