Gathering all the forces on the defense line of more than ten miles on the south bank of Lianshui is to gather all the forces into one fist and not let the forces be scattered.

And at this moment, what makes Wang Chong clumsy is not the problem of troops, but the lack of generals, except for Wang He and Wang Ming, there is no one available under his command. But Huo Yi's arrival has undoubtedly given this line of defense a shot in the arm.

In addition to not having to think about the overall situation, Huo Yi also has a terrible team of generals, the military horses entering Shu are still on the waterway from Baidi City to Jingzhou, but Huo Yi still has a lot of available generals, Guan Xing and Zhao Tong are young generals, and the time they have followed Huo Yi is not short.

Ye Zhi is a partial talent, and it is needless to say that he specializes in spying on the enemy. Huo Liang, who came from Deng Ai's side, is the material of a good general, and after such a long period of training, he has matured a lot.

But the most terrible thing Huo Yi brought back this time is still Wang Ping, this guy's ability is probably the most powerful among the generals under Huo Yi, that is, Wang Chong and Deng Ai, who have been by Huo Yi's side for a long time and have been reused, are also slightly insufficient, Deng Ai is still young in age, and Wang Chong is defeated in talent.

Huo Yi quickly rearranged the distribution of the various armies, Wang He and Wang Ming had become the third-rate generals under Huo Yi, and their abilities were extremely average, Huo Yi mobilized them to the defense line with slightly less pressure on the left flank, and commanded 5,000 men and horses. Wang Ping and Huo Liang were placed in the middle of the defense line, this person was extremely stable and guarded, good at guarding, and commanding nearly 10,000 troops and horses.

Wang Chong led the cavalry under Huo Yi, the number was about 2,000, and he was regarded as a mobile pawn under Huo Yi. Zhao Tong and Guan Xing were a steady and mobile man, leading nearly 8,000 men and horses to the right flank where the position was more prominent, to defend against the surprise attack of the Jiangdong Army.

Even if Huo Yi brought 8,000 reinforcements from the rear, in terms of troops, the Jingnan army was still in a weak position. can only shrink back on the defense and wait for Gao Jin and others to lead the army back before they can fight.

Huo Yi is the 8,000 men and horses who led the way to Xiangxiang, and like Wang Chong's task, he also has to play the role of a mobile force, where there is a tight situation, he will go.

After several months of repair and maintenance, Xiangxiang City has been extremely strong and towering, Huo Yi stood in the city tower of the north gate, and could even vaguely see the Jiangdong Military Water Village on the north side of Lianshui, which was really a banner covering the sky. The momentum is like a rainbow. It is no wonder that the Jingnan defenders on the south bank have been able to hold the line for several days. But he was so passive and depressed.

The sky was already bright, and Huo Yi saw that the Jiangdong Army's water village was moving frequently, and all kinds of warships were scattered in the Lianshui River like peacocks. The Jiangdong Army is good at water warfare, and Huo Yi's Jingnan Army does not have many water divisions. Together, there are only dozens of warships, and there are less than 2,000 soldiers.

It is to build the water village on the left flank in the front, and it does not dare to confront the Jiangdong naval army head-on, and most of it is also the role of auxiliary army infantry and cavalry to guard the defense line.

It was not until this moment that Huo Yi knew how the invincible name of the Jiangdong Army's naval division came from, and the various warships were scattered between the movements, as if they were in the formation of the Northland cavalry. Extremely particular. From the city tower, it is extremely spectacular and shocking.

The Jingnan army defended extremely skillfully, but it gave up the frontal water battle and built dozens of earthen cities 100 meters from the shore. The earthen castles are connected by earthen walls, and the soldiers have various defensive equipment on the earthen castles.

If the Jiangdong army came to attack, it could only come by boat, but the depth of the shore was not more than 100 meters, and it was all within the range of the crossbow machine's bow and arrow. Ships can only stop at a distance of 100 meters from the shore and land in small boats to avoid the soldiers being directly exposed to the killing range of the crossbow machine.

This caused great trouble to the landing of the Jiangdong Army, and it is also the reason why the Jiangdong Army has not been able to invade Lingling for a long time in the past ten days.

Huo Yi was amazed by Wang Chong's wonderful ideas.

The Jiangdong army came very quickly, but at about 100 meters offshore, all the warships stopped, anchored one after another, and fixed the ships. Huo Yi instinctively felt a little uneasy, there were many famous generals in Jiangdong, and he was extremely experienced in the battle formation, so he stopped abruptly at this moment, if he copied the previous action, it would only increase the casualties of the soldiers, and it would be useless.

Sure enough, under Huo Yi's strong eyesight, he found that the ships of the Jiangdong Army were all connected by iron cables, but this was not because of the turbulent water potential of the Lianshui, the Jiangdong sergeants were good at water, this drifting was really not a problem, after stopping at a place 100 meters offshore, the boats were laid between the boats with wooden planks, and suddenly countless small boats sailed out from behind the big boats, and the front boats were full of armored archers.

The small boat full of archers first went to the shore a stone's throw away, and the small boat behind it was indeed very peculiar, and the side of the boat was covered with planks, and soon it was covered with the water from the big boat to the shore. On the big ship, there are countless wooden ladders in front of it, which lead straight to the small boat that is very close to the big ship.

Huo Yi was extremely frightened, at this moment, on the front of Lianshui, the Jiangdong Army forcibly laid a flat ground on the water, which was enough to accommodate nearly 10,000 soldiers to land on the shore.

Wang Chong, who was beside him, also swallowed a mouthful of saliva: "Who is so curious, hateful!" ”

Huo Yi reacted very quickly, immediately went down to the city tower, and said coldly: "General Wang is sitting here, I will lead the troops to the front defense line, Lu Meng is cunning, he will definitely attack the front defense line with all his strength, if it is broken, the consequences will be unimaginable!" ”

Wang Chong was anxious when he heard this: "The general is concerned with the overall situation, and let Chong go, what to do, the general will order!" ”

Huo Yi was about to refuse, but Wang Chong knelt down on one knee: "The general is the hope of the whole army in Jingnan, how can he be so profound!" The last general is not talented, I am willing to go for the general, general! ”

Huo Yi helplessly helped Wang Chong up, and said in a deep voice: "General Wang can lead the cavalry army to kill from the left flank after the Jiangdong army landed, and ordered all the soldiers to bring more fire-causing things to burn the Jiangdong army's landing equipment. ”

Huo Yi paused, and said: "But after the thief army lands on the shore, there will inevitably be many people, and if the general goes, most of them will die for a lifetime!" ”

Huo Yi looked at the man in front of him who had been following him since Jia Meng was closed, and he was extremely emotional.

Wang Chong hugged his fists and said loudly: "Chong from a tooth general, because of the general's appreciation, only today's status, everything is thanks to the general, today's general is in danger, Chong Zi dare not go backwards!" How can a husband avoid life and death! The general is relieved, and the last general will be able to return triumphantly! ”

Huo Yi looked at Wang Chong with tears in his eyes, and said loudly: "Okay! I'll send the general out of town! ”

The two slowly descended the city, and when they arrived at the camp of the two thousand war horsemen, Wang Chong ordered the troops to bring more arrows, light the fire, and prepare the horses for battle. In a short time, the armies were ready to stop.

Huo Yi looked at this group of people, many of them were familiar faces who had been fighting with him for a long time, and there were small centaurs here, all of whom were Huo Yi's personal guards.

Huo Yi nodded at Wang Chong, Wang Chong also smiled in response, pulled out his saber and said loudly: "Gentlemen, this victory and defeat is only here, and there is only one purpose, to burn the wooden boat of the thief army from the south and set off." ”

This cavalry is all veterans under Huo Yi's command, there is no restlessness of the recruits, there is no timidity of the recruits, more is a calm, carefully inspect their equipment, prepare stirrups and saddles, turn around and get on the horse, under Huo Yi's gaze, this Biao cavalry rolled out from the north gate like a dragon, turned west and went to the left flank of Wang He and Wang Ming.

At this moment, the left flank was very quiet, and the Jiangdong Army only sent thousands of sailors to monitor the movements of this group of men and horses, and there was no actual attack action. Only the frontal battlefield is where the wrestling between the two sides lies.

Wang Chong's cavalry walked extremely fast, and in just a moment, the left flank Tucheng was already visible in the distance.

Wang Ping, who was on the front, stared at the wooden road paved by the Jiangdong Army in front of him, and said loudly: "The trebuchet is ready, as long as the enemy army starts to advance, it will send stones to the wooden boat closest to the shore to block the enemy's offensive!" ”

"Whoa!" Although this strange general, the soldiers of the Jingnan Army have never seen it, but their bones are already full of soldiers who obey orders, and they still strictly implement every order of this general.
