Chapter 339 Cai Mao was captured, and the heroic veteran sought battle
It is said that Xu Yi killed Cai Zan and added Hanyang. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 Under the arrangement of the Imperial Historian Chen Gong, Huang Xu, the governor of the army, set up two water villages and two Han villages, forming a confrontation with the Eastern Wu army in Xiakou.
Cai Mao learned of her brother's tragic death, and couldn't suppress the sadness in her heart and came to see Zhou Yu.
"Governor, my brother died tragically. Please General Xu Laofu to fight! Cai Mao was in tears and insisted on going.
Zhou Yu hurriedly stopped and comforted: "The old general's day is by the way, and General Mao Jue is broken, and the governor of Pontus is also very sad!" However, our army has lost the west bank, so we should beware of the enemy crossing the river! ”
"Governor, the old man raised the people of Jingzhou to belong to the lord and join the general. Now the old man and brother lost their soldiers and horses, lost Hanyang, lost the defense of the west bank, and lost their lives. The old man is responsible for the country and the family. It is also hoped that General Xu Laofu will lead his troops to battle and recapture Hanyang. Otherwise, the old man will not be able to sleep well! Cai Mao wiped away her old tears and said eagerly.
"Listen to me, old general! We must first understand the situation of the enemy's army, know ourselves and know the enemy, and then we can not be defeated in a hundred battles! Zhou Yu stopped Cai Mao and sent someone to inquire about the news of the Han army.
After a short time to explore the horse, he came to report: the Han Dynasty sent the former imperial historian Chen Gong as the commander, commanded 100,000 Jingzhou sailors, and 150,000 troops captured Hanyang, and pressed two water villages at the mouth of the three rivers, and two dry villages in the north and south of Hanyang City. Chen Gong and Huang Xu, the governor of Jingzhou Army, were stationed in Hanyang City, and Huang Yan, the deputy governor of the navy, was stationed in the water village, and Xu Yi, the deputy governor of the army, was stationed in the dry village.
Zhou Yu didn't make a sound after hearing it, Cai Mao heard the 100,000 naval troops of the Han army on the side, and he didn't think so, so he said: "Metropolitan Governor, who can be called the general of the Han army, can you dare to compare with the old man?" I also hope that the old man will lead the naval army to fight with the enemy! ”
Zhou Yu watched Cai Mao ask for battle repeatedly, and couldn't help but move, so he said: "Old general, our army has 150,000 sailors, and after long-term training, it is naturally stronger than the enemy. Since the old general wants to go, there is a reason to block it! I hope the old general will deal with it carefully! ”
Cai Mao saw Zhou Yu's promise and quickly thanked him.
Let's say that Cai Mao returned to his camp, found his brothers Cai Yan, Cai He and deputy general Zhang Yun, and said: "The old man asked the governor of Dadu for a battle order. From now on, 30,000 sailors will drive 20 large ships and hundreds of sampan boats to the Han army's water village to fight. ”
It's ridiculous, just 30,000 people dare to provoke other people's camps, isn't it looking for death?
In fact, Cai Mao thought that there were only more than 100,000 sailors in the Han army, although they were Jing Xiang's pawns, they were trained under Gan Ning and other water thieves, what kind of water warfare art could they have?
In this way, Cai Mao is really wrong and wrong, and it is often very tragic to underestimate the fate of the opponent......
Huang Yan was in the Qianshui Village, discussing with the cavalry general Gan Gui, the staff general Shen Mi, the assault general Lou Fa, and the guerrilla general Chen Sun to send water ghosts to the Dongwu Water Village to investigate the enemy's intelligence.
But I heard that the guards of the water village came to report that more than 20 big ships and countless small boats appeared on the river, coming towards the water village.
Huang Yan hurriedly took Gan Gui, Shen Mi, Lou Fa, and Chen Sun to climb the watchtower and watch.
Sure enough, I saw more than 20 building boats appear on the horizontal line, and countless small sampans around the building ships competed with each other. There are two large flags erected on the ship on the first floor, and the handwriting on the flags is blurry and unclear.
"Governor, can you go to war?" Gan Gui asked.
"It's a good opportunity to play today. It's just that the enemy army is so arrogant, how can we deal with it? "Since Huang Yan came to Jingzhou to follow his eldest brother Huang Xu to practice water warfare, but when he really came to the battlefield, he was still a little less real than land warfare.
"Governor, my subordinates think that our army is temporarily guarding in the wall, and when the enemy is approaching, they will shoot it with a strong crossbow." As a general of the navy, Shen Mi is quite proficient in water warfare, and he is cautious, and has never advocated a hard resistance. But when the enemy army is weaker than himself, he will be the first to lead his troops to charge and kill, without mercy.
"Pontus has a plan." Huang Yan said with a smile.
"Command, Governor." Gan Gui, Shen Mi, Lou Fa, and Chen Sun all got up and waited for the order.
Huang Yan waved his hand and said, "Don't be impatient, you wait and listen." When the enemy first arrived, the governor of Pontus sent Houzhai Ganshu to meet him with a big ship. The enemy will surely pass through our front village and attack the Ganshu fleet. ”
When Gan Gui and the others heard this, they heard the meaning of Huangyan and showed joy on their faces.
Huang Yan continued: "When the enemy's fleet passes through our village, Chen Sundang sends a team of water ghosts to attack the enemy's ship and break its protection; Gan Gui and the others will drive the building ship to attack the enemy from behind. ”
"Whoa!" Gan Gui and the others immediately took the order.
Huangyan sent people to the Houzhai Xiaocai general Gan Shu and assigned the tasks one by one.
Gan Shu received the order and hurried to the back village.
More than 50 ships under the command of Gan Shu went out of the water village.
Gan Shu personally led the lead ship, more than 20 ships on each side, and hundreds of officers and soldiers on each building ship and warship; Hundreds of sampans are interspersed in the middle, and more than a dozen people on the small sampan are dressed in water, each holding a fork stabbing device.
Cai Mao saw forty or fifty warships pouring out of the enemy's water village from afar, and he was also frightened for a while. But as soon as he thought of how a mere Ganning water thief could train an elite sailor, his courage grew up again, and he commanded the fleet to rush towards the other party.
If Cai Mao can be sober and face up to the opponent's naval army, it will be difficult to determine who will win or lose this battle for a while. It's a pity that Cai Mao despises the other party too much, thinking that his ability to train the water army is difficult for others to match, but he pushes himself towards death.
As everyone knows, the lion fights the rabbit still needs to do its best! Poor Cai Mao gets older and more confused......
Ganshu divided the fleet into three parts, and led more than ten warships of the Chinese army; On the left flank is the staff general Su Can, and on the right flank is the guerrilla general Su Da, each leading more than ten warships, interspersed with sampans in the middle. It's just that the speed of the advance of the enemy army does not seem to be very fast.
But Cai Mao didn't notice this, and his fleet had already sailed past the water village in front of the people, and he didn't even feel it.
In this way, Cai Mao really entered the open mouth of others. If you think about it again, I'm afraid it's even more difficult.
Sure enough, Gan Shu had been waiting for Cai Mao's fleet to pass through the Han army's water village. When Cai Mao's fleet appeared in the front village of the Han army, he pressed the two-wing fleet; It was not until Cai Mao's fleet entered more than half of the ships in Qianzhai that he ordered the Chinese fleet to accelerate the attack.
After such a change, Cai Mao realized that she had entered a place where she shouldn't have entered, but unfortunately it was too late.
But when he heard a burst of artillery in the enemy's wall, the gate of the water village opened, and dozens of warships rushed out of it.
On the first ship, a general danced a drumstick and beat the drum vigorously, and several lieutenants stood on both sides. The warships behind rushed out of the water village in a goose-shaped formation one by one, and rushed directly into the left flank of Cai Mao's fleet in the sound of drums.
Cai Mao's left flank fleet was cut into two sections in an instant.
Cai Mao hurriedly asked Zhang Yun to drive the flank sub-ship to attack.
But at this moment, there was a sound of "dong dong" under the boat, Cai Mao heard that he was about to send someone down to watch, and when he looked up, he found several figures under the flanking boat swimming in the water, and shouted angrily: "Tell the sampan to enter the water!" ”
At this time, the Han army had already attacked, and the small sampan became the vanguard of the battle.
It's a pity that Cai Mao didn't have many troops and was surrounded by several times the strength of the Han army. The boats were all scuttled through the bottom of the boat, and the Wu soldiers jumped into the water one after another.
The wandering ghost who went into the water first, although he killed several water ghosts of the Han army. But when the bottom of the boat was chiseled, the underwater Han army water ghosts launched a counterattack, and there were countless water ghosts diving on the water sampan, and the number of people was far superior to that of the Wu army's wandering ghosts. There was a huge disparity in numbers, and soon the Wu army wandering ghosts were killed or fled, and the river was dyed red for a while......
Cai Mao, Cai Yan, Cai and the three of them were on the same ship, barely holding on. Looking at the slowly sinking building boat, and the Han army constantly surging up on the enemy building ship on the side, Cai Mao already understood that this battle could not end well, so he said to the two old brothers: "I have been waiting for Rong Ma all my life, and I don't want to end up like this?" It's all blamed for being a brother and being confused, hurting you and so on! ”
Cai Yan pulled out the sword in his waist, and in front of Cai Mao, who stepped into the tiger, he said: "Big brother, why do you have to be so unbearable!" My brother is now over half a hundred years old and has experienced all kinds of life, so why regret it? The eldest husband died on the battlefield and left a name for a hundred generations! ”
But he saw Huang Yan, the governor of the Han army and the Jingzhou Navy who had just climbed the mountain building boat, and said loudly: "What the old general said is extremely true! If it weren't for the war between the two countries, each for its own master, you and I would be happy to talk about life! ”
"Doll, Hugh boasts! You and I are on the line of life and death, either you die or I die! Come, do you dare to fight with someone? Cai Yan raised his sword and asked Huang Yan.
Huang Yan smiled and said: "The old general is on Cai Dejun's side, and he is upright and upright. If Pontus's guess is correct, you should be Cai Yan and Cai Wenqi? ”
"It's the old man!" Cai Yan said.
"Alright! Since the old general has this invitation, he should welcome him. It's just that people don't think about their muscles and bones, and I hope that the old general will be careful. Huang Yan said, handed the big sword in his hand to the lieutenant next to him, pulled out the sword, and made a gesture of invitation.
Cai Yanqing stabbed with his sword, and Huang Yan blocked it with his sword.
The two of them fought together.
Although Cai Yan's swordsmanship is good, his strength is insufficient; And Huang Yan is young and strong, and his swordsmanship is also exquisite, and he is taught by Liu Qian's swordsmanship.
In less than twenty rounds, Huang Yan shook his hand and shot down the sword in Cai Yan's hand, then withdrew and retreated.
Cai Yan looked at Huang Yan in a daze, wondering why Huang Yan didn't kill him.
Huang Yan put away his sword, and then sent the navy behind him to step forward, captured the three Cai brothers, and quickly evacuated the sinking ship.
In this battle, the Huangyan Department killed more than 20,000 Wu troops, captured 1,000 people, beheaded Zhang Yun, the general of the Wu army, and captured the Cai Mao brothers, the governor of the Wu army; The Han army lost 1,000 water ghosts, 5,000 water soldiers, and countless wounded.
In this battle, although the Wu army was annihilated, it won a narrow victory. Chen Gong realized the tragedy of the naval army's conquest, so he sent 50,000 troops to the water village to assist in the defense.
