Chapter 465: Soldiers out of Laoshan Bay
The scorching summer has quietly passed.
The first rays of gold dust of autumn swept across the earth, and ten giant warships docked in the port of Laoshan Bay.
In addition, there are countless small boats floating on the sea.
The bottom of the boat is flat and the draft is not deep, and it can carry 50 people at full capacity.
A huge wooden plank stood on the bow of the ship.
The planks are thick, and the outward side is painted with a thick layer of tung oil.
Countless Cao troops gathered in the harbor and boarded ships under the command of the generals.
The pirates under Guan Cheng's command have changed into Cao Jun's armor.
They boarded ten huge warships.
The pirates who got on the giant ship all looked left and right.
The behemoth in front of them made many of them feel both new and amazing.
In the first battle of Panshakou, they envied the giant warships of the Penglai Navy.
In just two or three months, they who could only be beaten passively also have their own warships!
"In the first battle of Panshakou, General Guo was killed in battle, and General Guan's command also suffered a lot of losses." Looking at Cao Jun who boarded the ship, Cao Cao said: "The general's command begs for a living at sea all the year round, the warships are equal, and the Penglai Navy is not an opponent. ”
"Yuan Xianxin landed in Penglai, and the navy has never neglected drills!" has not yet encountered the Penglai Navy, Guan Cheng did not dare to say enough: "Although the enemy is strong, the last general will do his best!" ”
"The general's department is just opening the way to escort." Guo Jia said: "The army is attacking Penglai, and the general only needs to drive away the Penglai Navy that came to harass him, and there is no need to open another battlefield with it!" ”
"Don't worry about Cao Gong, don't worry about the military advisor!" Guan Cheng answered.
"General be careful!" returned the salute, and Cao Cao saw him off.
Climb aboard the ship and stand on the bow of the ship.
The tall warships are like tall buildings rising above the sea.
Stand on the bow of the ship and look into the distance. He even felt that even the sea was much deeper than before.
There was a trumpet sound on the shore.
Looking at Cao Cao and the others who came to see each other off, Guan Cheng gave a big gift.
Cao Jun built a large ship to defeat Penglai. Guan Cheng didn't expect him to become the commander of the fleet.
Born as a pirate. Soon after joining Cao Cao.
If he is replaced by other heroes, he must only make him a deputy, and the main general is someone else!
Looking at the world, except for Cao Cao, I am afraid that no one is willing to appoint the main general like this!
With a burst of horns, the warship on which the steward was carrying slowly sailed out of the port.
Ten huge warships sailed out of the harbor, followed by countless small boats.
The warships on the sea stretched, standing on the shore and looking at it, the ships were connected and there was no end in sight!
"Our army has been fighting inland all year round. The generals are not accustomed to water! Looking at the fleet, Cao Cao said: "Attacking Penglai, I always feel that it is too hasty!" ”
"Excluding the management department, our army has no more than 20,000 soldiers." Guo Jia said: "Most of them are the Qingzhou Military Department, and they have not touched the root of Cao Gong. If Yuan Xianxin can be defeated, it is a matter of heart! ”
Cao Cao didn't say anything more.
Before Guandu, Yuan Xu had intercepted Cao's army.
Out of love, he refused to kill at first.
During the expedition, Yuan Xu's wings gradually plumped. So much so that now it is not necessary to use the army to attack Penglai in an all-round way!
He regretted it a little.
At the beginning, he should have listened to Guo Jia's advice and killed Yuan Xu.
If this is the case, there will be no more battle of Penglai!
"Cao Gong don't have to worry, there are more than 20,000 people in our army attacking Penglai." It can be seen that Cao Cao is lonely. Guo Jia said: "Penglai is just a small place, and the defenders are only 2,000. Although there are natural dangers on the island, the difference in military strength is ten times. When it can be broken! ”
Cao Cao said: "The sentence of filial piety can be broken, it is really meaningful!" ”
Guo Jia smiled slightly and did not respond.
Cao's army conquered Penglai. There were not enough warships, although the number of soldiers on the expedition was superior. But it hasn't been able to outnumber the enemy dozens of times!
Relying on Penglai's natural danger, the defenders on the island can really be a husband and a wife!
Whether you can successfully take the island depends on the number of fate!
On the warship, Jia Xu and Guan Cheng stood side by side on the bow of the ship.
Looking ahead, Jia Xu asked, "How sure is General Guan in this battle?" ”
"Ninety percent!" Guan Cheng said: "Our army has ten huge ships and hundreds of small boats. Whether the enemy is out of the port for naval battle, or our army is approaching the city. Yuan Xianxin will be passive this time! ”
"Ninety percent?" Jia Xu smiled and shook his head: "In my opinion, if there are sixty percent, the general is already in his hands!" ”
Looking at Jia Xu, Guan Cheng was puzzled: "Our army has a lot of soldiers and horses, could it be that Jia Gong thinks it is difficult to win?" ”
"Before Panshakou, did General Guan fight with Yuan Xianxin?"
Guan Cheng shook his head.
The Penglai Navy is strong, and Guan Cheng has long heard of it.
Only plundered merchant ships in the East China Sea, and occasionally led pirates to attack and harass the coast, if it weren't for Cao Cao, Guan Cheng and Guo Zu never thought of offending Yuan Xu!
"Who is the leader of the battle of Panshakou and the general Guan who killed?"
"Yuan Xianxin's staff is frustrated!"
"Frustrated!" Jia Xu smiled indifferently: "Although this person has plans, he is inferior to Yuan Xianxin." In the first battle of Panshakou, more than half of General Guan's command was lost, and General Guo died at sea. If you meet Yuan Xianxin, what does the general think about that day? ”
"Our army is about to break Penglai, why does Jia Gong increase the prestige of others?" Guan Cheng was a little displeased.
"It's not to increase the prestige of others, it's just to remind the general that although he has the advantage, he can't underestimate Yuan Xianxin!"
once suffered a big loss from Yuan Xu in Taihang, although it was because Zhang Yan didn't believe him at the beginning, so it was difficult for Jia Xu to perform.
However, defeat is defeat!
This time to attack Penglai, Cao Cao ordered him to come to assist Guan Cheng, and Jia Xu was also holding back his strength!
Zhang Yan was entrenched in Taihang, although he had the intention of serving Cao Cao, but he did not make the trip.
Jia Xu is in Zhang Yanjun's army, but whenever he makes a plan, he often has many constraints!
Inheritance is different.
He has already joined Cao Cao, and the battle of Panshakou has caused him to lose his troops.
Full of heart to defeat Penglai but there is no strategy available, he wishes Jia Xu would do more strategizing!
This naval battle is not so much about Guan Cheng leading his troops to attack Penglai, but rather about the re-confrontation between Jia Xu and Yuan Xu!
Cao's warships sailed out of Laoshan Bay and advanced all the way north.
On Penglai Island, Yuan Xu stood at the head of the city, looking at the empty sea.
The waves were turbulent, and the sea under the blue sky was like a woman who was losing her temper, setting off a huge wave and then smashing it to the sea, venting the annoyance in its chest.
"The wind has changed!" Looking at the sea, Yuan Xu said: "Cao Cao chose the most inopportune and most appropriate time to attack us. ”
"Why did Childe say that?" Tian Feng beside him asked.
"Tian Gong doesn't know?" Yuan Xu smiled indifferently.
"I don't know!" Tian Feng pretended not to understand: "Just looking at the sea, the son knows the reason why Cao Cao chose the day, and he is really convinced!" ”
"Marching and fighting, but the time and place are right!" Yuan Xu said: "Tian Gongzhi is very thoughtful, how can he not see through such a shallow and vulgar way? (To be continued.) )
