Chapter 620: Gan Xingba advances by land and water
Yu Ban, who was in the center of the ship, was ordering the sailors under his command to rush to the north shore to rescue Lu Qian's department, when he suddenly heard the troops in front of the fleet roaring: "It's not good, the hull of the ship is shaken, there must be a ghost who scuttles the boat underwater, and the ship will enter the water......"
Kelpie?
Yu was dumbfounded when he was banned, he had only recently built this naval army, and he was not very proficient in the application of various naval tactics, and if the enemy scuttled the ship, it would inevitably be chaos for the whole army. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
When Yu Ban was waiting for the "water ghosts" who let people go into the water to resist the scuttling boat, he suddenly saw the Huafei Army infantry on the north bank of the Yellow River roaring and attacking the self-army with all their long poles, and the black smoke behind them was even more blazing.
"Not good!" Seeing this, Yu Ban exclaimed, "Gan Ning Pifu wants to send infantry troops to hook my ship, and then set it on fire!" ”
However, the battle on the north bank was over, and He Man and Hu Che'er led the infantry to hurry from the warship to take down the long poles that had been prepared, while Ma Tie and Ma Xiu led the cavalry to light torches, and the two roads came back and forth.
Mao Jue, the deputy general of the navy on the side, shouted loudly: "Hurry, let everyone let the boat go to the south bank quickly, and cross the river to rely on the revolving gate for the rear first, and then compete with the thieves." ”
Yes, it is much better to have the revolving door defenders as their backing than to be flanked by the Hua Fei army here by land and water.
Seeing that Gan Ning commanded the sailors to release the boats to attack from the upstream, Yu Ban immediately ordered the boats to rush down the river and flee to the southeast after crossing the Yellow River.
Gan Ning took the opportunity to command the assault ship under his command with a sharp wooden bow to ram into the warship of the forbidden water army from the northwest direction, and there was a loud bang for a while, and the Cao army warships that could not withdraw were all stopped and broken.
Shocked by the screams of the Cao army, Yu Ban reacted quickly and urgently dispatched the archers to shoot the enemy, and ordered the big ship to hook the broken warship and retreat towards the revolving gate.
Fortunately, the distance between the revolving gate pass and Wen County is not too far, Yu Bancai finally escaped safely to the revolving gate pass after losing dozens of small warships, Gan Ning saw that he was chasing the majestic revolving gate pass, but immediately ordered Mingjin's army to return.
Naxiongguan stood on a high place by the mountains and rivers, and the Cao army had already prepared to be condescending, and the goal of the self-army's trip was not in the forbidden area, so there was no need to get up to the Cao army's stones and arrows to rain down.
In this battle, Gan Ning, under the instruction of Hua Fei, commanded the joint operation of the horse, infantry, and water armies, and annihilated Lu Qian's troops in one fell swoop and dragged away more than ten broken warships of the Yu Forbidden Water Army, not only destroying nearly 10,000 enemies and capturing thousands, which can be described as a brilliant result.
However, Gan Ning and other generals did not accept it when they saw it, but inherited Hua Fei's intentions and rushed into Hanoi and the hinterland of Yanzhou to plunder.
When Gan Ning led the sailors to return to the north shore triumphantly, he immediately received a report from He Man: The iron ropes on the north bank of the Cao army have been completely dissolved, and the navy can rest assured that they can go down the river.
Gan Ning has to report great joy! As long as the iron cable lock river is untied, the iron cable will fall into the river, so he will send people to send a war report to Huafei who is sitting in Luoyang.
On the one hand, he led some elite sailors to closely monitor the movements of Cao's army on the south bank, and on the other hand, he sent Ganchi to lead the rest of the sailors down the river towards the south bank.
As for the Zhonghua Flying Army on the north bank of the Yellow River, they had already launched their actions according to the previous arrangement.
The two brothers, Ma Tie and Ma Xiu, led 10,000 cavalry to rush across the rushing east side of the water, and sent guards to spy on the front along the way, and the army harvested agricultural goods along the river and moved to the river, waiting for Ganning to send a navy to load and transport.
He Man and Hu Che'er took advantage of the capture of Zhang Yang to wave their troops or persuade or attack to carry out recovery operations in Yixian, Boxian and Yewang to the west of Mishui, and at the same time occupy the southern exit of Baicheng in Taihang Bacheng.
Hua Fei was overjoyed when he learned that the army had invaded Hanoi and Yanzhou like the autumn wind sweeping away the leaves, and he urgently ordered Wang Ling, the right chief of the right general's mansion under his command.
mobilize the masses in Luoyang to help build a pontoon bridge over the Yellow River to facilitate mutual support for the passage of the self-army on both sides of the river; Facing the map, I pondered the situation in Hanoi.
Hezhong is located in the northeast of Luoyang, the southwest of Yizhou and even the north of Yanzhou, which is the junction zone of the three major forces of Cao Cao, Yuan Shao and the self-army.
If the self-army can take Hanoi, it will have to garrison a heavy army to prevent being attacked by Cao Cao and Yuan Shao, and such a thing must not be slackened.
"Lord," just as Hua Fei was thinking about the slightly cool Buddha beads, Wang Chang's hurried fist interrupted his thoughts, "Yique Guan Bao came out with an urgent report,
Cao Zhen, the guard of the Otani Pass of the Cao army, led the army out of the pass and went straight to the Yique Pass from the southeast; At the same time, Yang Ren of the county town of Wushi also reported that the Cao army guarded the general Cao Ren and marched towards the county town of Wushi with great fanfare, as if there was a posture of launching an attack on our army. ”
Put on a posture of two levels of defenders and want to launch an attack on our army Luoyang?
Hua Fei secretly laughed at Cao Jun's bluff when he heard the newspaper, but he heard Wang Chang open his voice: "Right now, Cao Jun is attacking from two ways, and there are no generals and soldiers on my lord's side.
This situation is too unsafe, why don't my lord order the transfer of General Zhang Ren's headquarters from the revolving gate pass to Luoyang City as soon as possible, or defend Luoyang City and respond to the three places of Yique Pass and Wushi and Gongxian so that the Cao army does not dare to act rashly. ”
"Wen Shu doesn't have to worry," Hua Fei waved his hand and said with a smile in the faint sandalwood fragrance, "I expect that the reason why Cao Ren and Cao Zhen will move in two ways is just because Zhang Ren waved the army and made Cao Xiu worry about reporting to Xuchang urgently.
And Xun Yu, who was sitting in Xuchang, ordered the two generals to raise troops to attack Luoyang after receiving the report, which was just a bluff to encircle Wei and save Zhao from our army. ”
My lord's argument is also very correct, thinking that Cao Cao not only ordered Xia Houdun and Zhang Yangqi to invade the Guancheng with 50,000 troops, but also led the army into Liu Biao's Nanyang County, how many soldiers and horses can he Xun Yu have to call, and how can he have the ability to attack Luoyang?
Wang Chang nodded in agreement, but said uneasily: "Even so, your lord is a golden body, and you are the top priority of the whole army.
How can there be no soldiers to put the guards in danger, Wang thought that it would be better for the lord to quickly transfer General Zhang Ren to lead his troops back to Luoyang City, anyway, our army did not intend to storm the revolving gate. ”
"Woo ......" Hua Fei, who had already turned his head to look at the map, groaned as if he had not heard it, and then turned the slightly cool Buddha beads, and said without looking back, "Order Bao to lead the army to immediately abandon the withdrawal of Yique Pass to Luoyang." ”
"Huh?"
Wang Chang was so shocked that his mouth could stuff a chicken's heart, how can my lord highlight the faint move, this Yique Pass is the southern gate of Luoyang, if you give up, once Cao Zhen leads the army straight in.
Although this Luoyang City has nothing to do with it, Henan and Gucheng and other places are bound to be driven into by Cao Junchang.
