Chapter 292: North Crossing

It is not unreasonable to choose the upper reaches of the Yellow River to cross the river to the north, just in the lower reaches of Baima, there are Cao Ying's troops in charge, according to the information sent by Dian Wei, the deployment of troops to the north is weak, and it is naturally the best way to choose a place where the enemy army is weak to cross the river.

This is the role of the Poison Dragon Battalion, although it is only a simple distribution, but its value is immeasurable, with such a map, Mongo can easily find the enemy's weak points, and then cross the river here, so that he can cross the Yellow River without much effort.

The place where the river crossing was preliminarily determined, the army was drawn on the second day, and went straight to the upstream Guandu, according to Dian Wei's report, this place was the weakest enemy army, and it was the most suitable for crossing the river, so Mungo naturally chose this place, and the boats crossing the river also quickly rushed to Guandu.

Beidu is very important to Menggo, if it can be successfully passed, then it will play a decisive role in the battle situation, not only because of the appearance of the Wuhuan people, but also because of the appearance of the Wuhuan people, Menggo also hopes to solve this battle as soon as possible, so that the world will be half calm.

Looking at the rolling river, Meng Ge was speechless for a while, Xiahou Lan stood quietly beside him, and Mi Zhu also followed, there are many people in this small flagship, but they have their own concerns.

After crossing the Yellow River, you are about to arrive at Jizhou, Xiahoulan is a native of Changshan, and this time it can be regarded as returning to her hometown, but unfortunately she is not returning to her hometown in fine clothes, but coming to fight with soldiers and horses.

Going upriver along the Yellow River, the fleet rushed to Guandu, but on the other side of the bank was the sound of horses' hooves, Ma Chao and Zhang Liao were hurrying to Guandu, where they would also cross the river.

Just when Meng Ge was rushing westward, Dian Wei ran into trouble, and Su Fuyan was like a mad dog, constantly looking for the Poison Dragon Camp everywhere, coming and going to explore horses, hoping to discover the existence of the Poison Dragon Camp, which caused a lot of trouble for Dian Wei.

"Boom!" The sound of horses' hooves continued, and puffs of dust rolled up on the official road, and the Wuhuan cavalry searched everywhere, but could not find any trace of the poisonous dragon camp.

Dian Wei, who was lying in the grass, yawned, and as the horse's hooves left, Dian Wei whispered: "Little dog, are those people gone?" ”

The little dog who was looking out nodded and said in a low voice: "Lord Qiyu, they have all run away, it seems that they are returning to Puyang, maybe they are looking for us, this is not a way, with them patrolling, our task will be a lot more difficult!" ”

Dian Wei didn't care at all, and said in a low voice: "Well, but don't worry about this for now, since they haven't found out, let's go back first, we have to hold back for a while, until they panic!" ”

"Yes!" The puppy nodded, and disappeared into the grass with Dian Wei, as if he had never appeared.

What is Dian Wei's intentions, the little dog naturally knows, it is nothing more than to lure the snake out of the hole, and then kill him hard, these probes Dian Wei is not eye-catching, and the other party is riding a horse, accidentally ran one, if it is not arranged, the other party comes to the door, then it will be worth the loss.

Only he Dian Wei fights others, no one can beat him Dian Wei, when to fight, how to fight, it is up to him Dian Wei to decide, others want to decide the battlefield, it is simply impossible, to deal with the cavalry, naturally wait for him to get off the horse, and then it is more appropriate to do it, this Dian Wei knows this.

Soon two days passed, Meng Ge finally arrived at Guandu, Ma Chao and Zhang Liao were also in place, the north crossing was about to begin, although there were not too many troops on the other side, but Meng Ge did not dare to take it lightly.

At night, Meng Ge ordered: "Xiahoulan, pass the order, pay attention to concealment, and don't let the other side know the truth here, understand!" ”

"Yes!" Xiahou Lan hurriedly ran down, the purpose of concealment is to suddenly, the sudden appearance caught the enemy off guard, it is late today, it is not realistic to cross the north at this time, and the hidden good enemy has not been discovered, so the next step can create a certain sudden surname.

The entry into Guandu was very smooth, and it did not attract the attention of the enemy, and there were not many troops on the other side, so Meng Ge was very much looking forward to the success of the northern crossing, so that things would be easy to do.

There was no word all night, and the next morning, the moment of hustle and bustle finally arrived, and the ships that entered one after another at night finally appeared in the sun, and only waited for Mungo's order, and the northern crossing could begin immediately.

"Let's go!" Without the slightest hesitation, Mungo immediately set out to cross north, and in an instant there were cries on the banks of the river.

The northern crossing of the Yellow River officially began, the army suddenly appeared on the river, the sudden change, the enemy on the opposite side was caught off guard, without waiting for the enemy's reaction, the fleet rushed straight to the front of the enemy, for the northern crossing, Meng Ge was well prepared, although there were not many warships, but it was enough.

"Oh no, the enemy is coming!" The opposite bank finally changed color, and the appearance of a large number of boats, the pressure on the other side was enormous, and fools knew that it was a sign of crossing the river.

Jiang Yiqu looked at the boats on the river, and his heart suddenly sank to the bottom, this place is just an unimportant stronghold, there are too many similar strongholds, and the division of troops to guard is already the limit, now that the enemy is coming, I am afraid that it will be difficult to stop, Jiang Yiqu began to think in his heart.

Jiang Yiqu was not in a hurry, this was in a hurry for the people around him, and the soldiers next to him couldn't help but say loudly: "My lord, you can get an idea!" ”

"Panic, evacuate according to the plan!" Jiang Yiqu didn't care at all, but a hint of coldness flashed in his eyes.

Meng Ge stood on the bow of the flagship, calmly watching the thousands of troops marching together, as long as he boarded the shoal opposite, he would reach the boundary of Jizhou, and then the other party would be finished, according to Dian Wei's report, the number of troops here was less than a thousand, and it was the best point of attack.

The shallows opposite Guy are wide, and it is very difficult to defend, Meng Ge's plan is naturally to land on the shoal, this place is just right, in the face of Meng Ge's strong attack, Jiang Yiqu did not have the slightest idea of resistance, gave him a leopard guts, and did not dare to rush up to spread wild.

is not as good as Cao Ying's water village to rely on, although Jiang Yiqu wants it very much, but now he has no chance.

The enemy ship quickly approached, a puff of gunpowder smoke began to fill, the crossbowmen were already ready to take position, Jiang Yiqu quickly came to the front of the formation, and shouted: "Shoot!" ”

"Order!" The crossbowmen on the high slopes did not dare to slacken, but their speed was too slow.

The sky has already flashed with black dots, with the warship as the vanguard, the only four fighting ships played an important role, the powerful firepower of the bed crossbow was suddenly undoubted, just when the boat was quickly docking, aiming at this opportunity, the bed crossbow was finally launched.

"Ahh The huge feathered arrows flew into the air, instantly stirring up a snowflake, and the terrifying bed crossbow once again played its role as a strategic weapon.

"Retreat, retreat!" Jiang Yiqu retreated in horror, originally wanting to take advantage of the enemy's failure to land and strike at the place, but he didn't expect the enemy's range to be so far away, which instantly disrupted his plan.

"Protect the General! Protect the General! The soldiers shouted loudly, and rows of meat shields kept swinging out, for fear that Jiang Yiqu would be shot, but the crossbowmen were not so lucky.

Seeing that the time for the landing was about to come, Mongo Gujing looked at it without waves, the troops here were too weak, so weak that it was difficult to resist at all, if the enemy army did not have reinforcements, it would be possible to land today, so that it was one step closer to the plan.

The bed crossbow loaded on the fighting ship continued to shoot angrily, and the local crossbowmen fell in an instant, and before the battle began, the enemy was disrupted, which was a huge advantage in range, and it seemed to be a wise decision to load the bed crossbow on the fighting ship, and Mungo was very satisfied.

As the fleet approached, the small boats in front had begun to dock, and the big ships in the shoal area could not approach, so they had to use small boats to land, if there was no damage from the bed crossbow, the enemy would be the first to attack, and the casualties would be not small at that time, but now it was different, and the landing was almost unscathed, which was crucial.

The situation developed on the favorable side, and Meng Ge gradually felt relieved, but the embarrassed Jiang Yiqu was not reconciled, and let the enemy land so easily, which obviously did not satisfy him, but seeing the power of the bed crossbow, Jiang Yiqu really did not have a good way.

The pro-soldier next to him hurriedly said: "General, withdraw, it's too late to run!" ”

Seeing that the enemy army had come ashore, Jiang Yiqu knew that something was wrong, and hurriedly shouted: "Light the fire, withdraw!" ”

"Yes!" The pro-soldiers immediately ran down, according to the original plan, if the enemy landed here, it would be unstoppable, only retreat was the right way, otherwise it would be a dead end.

In order to retreat smoothly, it is most appropriate to use flames to block the way, and with Jiang Yiqu's order to ignite, the entire stockade on the shore gradually burst into flames, and Meng Ge suddenly frowned.

"Light the fire, light the fire, bring the firewood and grass!" After the tense ignition action, the Yuan army began to retreat, and the crossbowmen had long since disappeared, and it seemed that they had been run away.

"Flame blocking the way, kind of interesting!" Meng Ge smiled slightly, thinking that Dian Wei had done this at the beginning, and he had done it more thoroughly, these people learned very quickly, but it was useless, they couldn't stop it for a while, and it was too late at this time.

According to the report of the Poison Dragon Battalion, the enemy army is still far away from here, and it is impossible to support it in time, and it will take at least half a day for the enemy army to arrive from Makino.

Soon the camp in front of them was full of flames, and before Mongo could land, the enemy burned the entire camp and tried to block the way with flames, but their plan succeeded.

The first team finally boarded the shoal, Yang Dingfang took the lead in jumping off the boat, and a large number of soldiers poured onto the shoal, and the front was already a smooth road, and there was no enemy who could stop it, which was stronger than anything else.

"Beware of traps, pay attention to Lao Tzu!" Yang Dingfang shouted hoarsely, he didn't want to be yin by the enemy, that kind of taste was not comfortable at all.

The boats continued to pour down the soldiers, and as the military order was quickly issued, the trap was cleaned up immediately, which was a fatal job, and no one dared to slack off, but fortunately the enemy did not set too many traps, just a few deep pits, and they were quickly found.

But in the face of the fire, Yang Dingfang felt powerless, such a fire could not be extinguished for a while, and there was no way to talk about firefighting, the other party specially used flammable firewood and grass, which was specially for ignition, maybe some oil was added, it was really not easy to do!

There are more and more people on the money stall, and in the face of the fire, everyone is helpless, after all, no one is a god, if you want to extinguish the fire, you have to wait, use water to extinguish the fire, forget it, a few buckets of water will not work at all.

"General, the landing has been completed, but I can't go up!" Xia Houlan looked at the front helplessly, this fire really burned him helplessly!

"It doesn't matter, this camp won't burn for long, try to open the gap from the side! Concentrate a little splash of water and open a road! Mungo pointed to both sides, the camp was crescent-shaped, and there was less contact between the two sides of the cliff, but it could be tried to open it.

"Yes!" Xia Houlan hurriedly went to pass down the military order, the river is no better than the ground, and the order has to use the flag language, open the gap from both sides, it's really hard to say, whoever makes the flag language formulated is a water war.

It took a lot of effort, Xia Houlan ran down in person, Yang Dingfang was looking at the fire and worried, seeing Xia Houlan running, Yang Dingfang immediately became happy, he came to explain that he had an idea.

Xia Houlan hurriedly ran over and saluted before saying, "Captain Yang, the general ordered us to start from both sides to see if we can clean up the fire and pour water in one place, so that we can pass!" ”

"On both sides, concentrate a little, great idea!" Yang Dingfang's eyes suddenly lit up, but he had a plan in his heart, these two sides seemed to be a little thinner, and it might be possible to open up a channel, which would not take too much effort.

After getting the way, Yang Dingfang immediately shouted: "Come on, bring a bucket, pour water on both sides for me, and clean up the firewood!" Fight to open the passage! ”

With a definite method, the work began immediately, and the soldiers carrying buckets quickly carried water, next to the Yellow River, water was naturally indispensable, and the act of setting fire on the shore was probably stupid to the home.

Finding a thinner position, a Wu commander immediately shouted: "Quick, here, pour it on me!" ”

From a distance, there seemed to be two more dragons on the edge of the shoal, all the buckets were used, and the work of turning on the flames continued, and Mongo looked relieved, this little thing would be done soon, and there was no need to worry about anything.

The fire extinguishing operation was carried out quickly, the work went smoothly, a little fire was extinguished, and immediately someone broke the unburned wood, a large amount of charred wood was cleared, and a road soon appeared.

Even if both sides are on fire, as long as there is one way, it is enough, thanks to the effective execution, Yang Dingfang is anxiously waiting.

When the road was opened in the middle of the fire, the commander in charge immediately shouted: "It's open, Lord Duwei, the road is open!" ”

The exciting moment finally came, and Yang Dingfang shouted impatiently: "Okay, pass immediately, catch up with those guys!" ”

"No way!" Xia Houlan immediately stopped him, this road is too small, only three or five people can be allowed to pass, this can only be passed by the army in the year of the monkey, and it must be opened a little bigger.

Yang Dingfang didn't think about it, and immediately blurted out: "Why? If you don't chase people anymore, you'll run away! ”

Xiahou Lan said without giving way: "If you can run, the monk can't run the temple, so I'm not in a hurry, but our army must be launched immediately, otherwise it is easy to be surrounded by the enemy, which is more important, Yang Duwei will know if you think about it!" ”

As soon as these words came out, Yang Dingfang suddenly broke into a cold sweat, the fighter plane is very important, if the enemy happens to have a large army passing by, it will not be good, it must be carried out with a large army here, not to mention that there are still people and horses in the rear who have not crossed the river, the big ship can not wait all the time, and the army must be transported across the river quickly.

With the same trick, Yang Dingfang immediately extinguished his thoughts, and instead commanded the opening of the passage, while the army immediately extended outward and deployed defenses to prevent the enemy from taking advantage of the opportunity to attack.
