The latest chapter of "The Three Kingdoms: Runan Chen Bozhi"...

Riding on the horse, Zhou Tai looked back at Zhang Ba who came back together, and Zhou Tai remembered what Chen Lin said to the two of them this morning. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info Early this morning, Chen Lin personally sent Zhou Tai and Zhang Ba to leave Nanzheng, and last night he had already decided to make up his mind to start a war against Jingzhou. Chen Lin: "Five days later, early in the morning, King Gu will lead a large army out of Nanzheng and rush to Shangyong, so the two of you must do it before noon that day at the latest, because the secret agents in Jingzhou will be able to get the news and send it to Zhonglu Port that night, and you must do it before them, so as to have the effect of a surprise attack." In any case, this time you must take Zhonglu Port, and no one can help you, and now Shangyong only has 15,000 soldiers and horses from your three divisions. You must take Zhonglu Port, and you must hold on to Zhonglu Port for at least six days, knowing that the army of the Lonely King is coming. Otherwise,-"

Chen Lin has great hopes for Zhou Tai and Zhang Ba, and Zhou Tai knows that among the three Shangyong Divisions, he, Zhang Ba, and Zhang Xun are the only ones who are professional sailors. This battle will definitely be the highlight of him, which is why Chen Lin talked to him alone. Zhou Tai felt both honor and pressure.

"General Zhang, tomorrow night, you will secretly march and bring the army to Fangling Port, and then you and I and General Zhang Jiangong will fight to the death to break the Hanshui Jingzhou Naval Army to ensure that the lord can cross the river smoothly after his arrival." Zhang Ba raised his head and nodded, as there were more and more talents under Chen Lin's command, Zhang Ba knew that he was really nothing. To be honest, he is just a little barbaric in terms of martial arts, but he is not only a general, but also a marquis, which is somewhat related to his relationship with Chen Lin and his sister. Zhang Ba: "General Zhou, rest assured, I, Zhang Yuanhua, will definitely not drag the general down in this battle." ”

Zhou Tai still admires this Zhang Ba, he has guarded Shangyong for so many years, without any complaints, and the thieves in Shangyong County were emptied by Zhang Ba, which shows his loyalty to Chen Linzhi. Zhou Tai: "Where does General Zhang speak, no one knows General Zhang's bravery." In this battle, I prepared 80 warships for the general, and at the same time gave 80 warships to General Zhang Jiangong, and the headquarters of our army used 100 warships, and all 300 warships were put into operation at one time, and 10,000 horses could be fought at the same time. No one has to rush to the other side no matter what, as long as they go ashore, they can fight against Jingzhou soldiers and horses on land. ”

Zhang Ba: "General, I have a suggestion. Zhou Tai couldn't help but be surprised, Zhang Ba was the body of the Hou Ye, but he was always polite to them, and at the same time, Zhang Ba actually said that he had suggestions, which made Zhou Tai very surprised. Zhou Tai hurriedly said, "General, you say." ”

Zhang Ba: "General Zhou, our army only has 300 warships, and Fangling Port needs at least one day of waterway. Not to mention the time to be wasted in the battle with the Jingzhou army, if we wait for the front of our army to capture Zhonglu Port first, and then turn back to transport the rest of the troops, the time will be at least two days slow. I thought that if not, the main force of our army would be the first to fight with warships. As for the rear army of our army, they requisitioned civilian ships and merchant ships of all sizes in the Han River to cross the river by themselves, so that they could save our army two days, which is a very valuable two days. ”

Zhou Tai's eyes lit up, civilian ships must be requisitioned, but a bold move like Zhang Ba was the first time, because it was not a small risk. Civilian ships can only be used to ensure safety, but this is the first time that they can be used to go directly to the battlefield after a warship. Not to mention the small size of the civilian ships, and secondly, the decks of the civilian ships were not at all suitable for withstanding the attacks of bows and arrows. In water battles, bows and arrows account for a lot of them, so if a civilian ship encounters a warship, it will only be abused.

Zhang Ba: "General Zhou, General Zhang Jiangong and I both know that this battle must be dominated by your naval army, but even if General Zhang and I are just live targets on the water, we can attract a lot of enemy attention for the general, so the general's pressure will be much less." ”

Zhou Tai: "Hou Ye-this-" Zhou Tai even changed his title, which means, you are a dignified Hou Ye, do you use it so risky. When Zhang Ba heard this, he was immediately furious: "I, Zhang Yuanhua, am deeply favored by the King of Qin, and I am the family of the King of Qin, if I don't fight for the Lord, what face will I have to meet the world, don't say it to the general, there is no Hou Ye here, only the enemy general." ”

When Zhou Tai heard this, he nodded violently and said: "Okay, then we only have half a day at most to collect ships, and at the same time, we must strictly guard against the flow of the river, so as not to leak the actions of our army and be guarded by Zhonglu Port." General Zhang, see you in the future, drive. With a dozen horses, Zhou Tai instantly galloped south, while Zhang Ba went straight east.

Three days later, Fangling Port, today's Fangling Port, woke up early in the morning to be different from usual, the armament was severe, all ships were not allowed to leave the port, and all ships were levied. Not only were the soldiers and horses under Zhou Tai's command rushing back and forth, but even the ordinary defenders and county soldiers were nervous and busy, and all the movable ships on the edge of the Han River were concentrated in Fangling Port. Countless Jingzhou's spies were immediately anxious, but Zhou Tai strictly ordered that no one was allowed to approach the port, and all ships, even soldiers, could not be launched in advance, so these spies could only be in a hurry.

That night, Fangling became more and more lively, because I don't know where two armies suddenly appeared, with tens of thousands of horses, gathered in Fangling. Zhou Tai smiled and then Zhang Xun and Zhang Ba entered the military tent, Zhou Tai: "The two generals came on time, hahaha, come, please inside." ”

Zhang Xun has been a Taiping general for several years, and being a general in Yizhou is completely different from being a general under Yuan Shu, but now Zhang Xun is much more energetic. Zhang Xun: "Hahaha, General Zhou, Master Hou told me on the road, tomorrow's battle must surprise the Jingzhou soldiers." ”

Zhou Tai was also a simple person, and hurriedly spread out the map and said: "Tomorrow, all 5,000 soldiers and horses in our department, and the soldiers and horses under the command of 5,000 generals and two generals, as the main vanguard of the battle, sail straight down, and you can reach Zhonglu in one day." In the middle of the night, we can launch a surprise attack, this battle of our army has advantages and disadvantages, the advantage is that our army is fighting along the river, and the Jingzhou soldiers are fighting against the water, not conducive to our army, everyone knows that our army is not only Jingzhou soldiers. ”

"The main force set off in the early morning, and when it sounded noon, the rear army of 5,000 people and horses could use the civilian ships and merchant ships collected on the spot, and they could be launched directly, and they could arrive at Zhonglu Port at noon on the second day, and go ashore from Zhonglu Port."

Zhang Ba Zhang Xun nodded again and again, time flies, the night passes quickly, and the sky begins to slowly turn white. Zhou Tai stood upright on the bow of the boat in military uniform, glanced at Zhang Ba beside him, and shouted: "Start the boat." "Zhang Xun will not go along, Zhang Xun, as the commander of the rear army, will only go into the water at noon.

As soon as the ship moved, Zhang Ba's soldiers and horses could immediately distinguish it, and it was very obvious that they were shaking on the ship one by one. Zhang Ba smiled awkwardly, Zhou Tai looked serious, the life and death of 15,000 people and horses can be said to be in his hands. If Lugang can't win in the stab, not to mention that this striker will be eaten by Jingzhou soldiers, even Zhang Xun behind him will become a lamb to be killed.

Zhou Tai: "General Zhang, you better go back to your warship, I will be the first to fight the enemy, and the general will suddenly come in later, and the effect will be good." Zhang Ba listened: "What do I want to fight behind, general, you look down on the general." Zhou Tai also shouted loudly: "General Zhang, this battle is related to the success or failure of our army, how can we be careless, the general's use should be on the defense of Zhonglu in the future, until the arrival of the lord's army, not on this river, the general's strength is damaged, how to resist the counterattack of Jingzhou's soldiers and horses in the future." ”

Chen Lin's distribution of Zhou Tai and others was very purposeful, Zhou Tai's role was to break through the water defense line, send Zhang Ba and Zhang Xun to the opposite shore, Zhang Ba and Zhang Xun defeated Jingzhou soldiers and horses on land, established a bridgehead for the Qin army, and ensured that Chen Lin could cross the river smoothly when he led his troops.

When Zhang Ba heard this, his blood-red eyes went straight to Zhou Tai, and he shouted for a long time: "General Zhou take care, saying that the tiger step jumped off the small boat and rowed to another big boat."

It was getting dark, and Zhou Tai shouted: "The herald is ordered to turn off the fire, and the whole army will move slowly." "A torch extinguished the fire, and only a strong wind blew on the calm river. Half an hour later, I saw a sea of fire in the distance. A small soldier shouted: "General, here, there is Zhonglu Port in front." ”

Zhou Tai raised his head and felt the direction of the wind, and complained in his heart, the sky is not beautiful. said: "At night, most of the enemy's warships have returned to port, and if you listen to my orders, you can attack the enemy's water village at full speed, and try not to let the enemy's warships leave the port." As long as we are fast enough, at least thirty percent of the enemy ships will not be able to get out and will be trapped in the harbor. Our army rushed straight down the road, attracting the enemy warships to the downstream of Zhonglu Port, and General Zhang Ba behind him will definitely be able to go down Zhonglu Port in a fight. ”

With such a huge fleet appearing, it is impossible for the enemy army not to react at all, and soon, even if Zhou Tai is careful again and again, he is still discovered by the enemy. Suddenly, there was a bang, and at the same time, Zhou Tai also heard a shout: "There are boats on the river, many boats, prepare for war." ”

Zhou Tai shouted: "The enemy has found out, light the torch, go at full speed, even if you hit it with a boat, you have to hit it, archers, rocket shooting." ”

"Report to the general, it's not good, a group of ships from the Jingzhou Navy rushed over directly, it's not like a battle, it's a fireboat, and the general is a fireboat." The so-called fireship is that there are not mainly combat soldiers on board, or even only a few rowers, and the ships are loaded with flammable things. The fireship came straight to the local ship, and when it approached, it immediately ignited the fire, and the fireship became the effect of dying with the enemy.

Zhou Tai looked at it and saw that there were at least thirty or so fireships in front of him, coming straight to his army, and the speed was very fast. Zhou Tai shouted: "Order the left side, Li Guang led his troops to rush up, he is a small fighting ship, rush up, don't come back to see the general if you can't stop the enemy's fireboat." The soldier hurriedly raised the command flag and gave orders. After a while, I saw a long small fighting ship of about twenty flying out like an arrow and crashing into it with a bang.

Zhou Tai roared angrily in his heart, knowing that this was clearly a way to block the enemy with his own body, but the enemy army used fireships, why not, trying to buffer Zhou Tai's attack speed, so that the ships in the military port could be launched. But how can Zhou Tai be like this, if the Jingzhou Navy can be wiped out on the shore, it must be wiped out on the shore, and they must not be allowed to go into the water.

At the same time, Zhonglu Gang shouted: "What about General Cai Shui, what about General Cai Shui?" "There are people constantly roaring for the defender of Zhonglu Port, who is also the leader of this naval army. I only heard a loud shout: "General Cai has gone to Zhonglu Town." Another voice that hated iron and steel suddenly said angrily: "Mother, go to find his concubine again, go, get on the warship, you must not let the enemy army go ashore, go, you go over there, don't stop the bow and arrow, don't let the enemy go ashore." ”

Zhonglu Port, a piece of gunsmoke.
