Since he couldn't open a breakthrough in Chibi, Qin Feng planned to open up a second battlefield after thinking about it for a long time. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Everyone began to think about it, and they began to feel that Qin Feng's strategy was right. Now that the 800,000-strong army has been stagnant here for a long time, it is extremely unfavorable, and it is indeed necessary to open up a second battlefield.

However, along the Yangtze River, the moats are like forests, and the places outside the red cliffs are all steep, and they are guarded by the enemy.

"King, where are you going to open up a second battlefield?" Lao Jia Xu asked.

Qin Feng nodded on the map, "Here." ”

Suddenly, Dongting Lake came into view.

Zhou Yu came out and said: "King, Dongting Lake is connected to the Yangtze River, and the waters are open, so it is indeed a good place to open up the second battlefield. However, there is Baqiu Mountain to guard the entrance, my brother built a military building in Baqiu Mountain in his early years, set up a stone-throwing position, and guarded the entrance to prevent Liu Biao, and recently heard that Sun Quan Sima Yi and others were built and reinforced. ”

"The entrance to it was shallow, and the battleship could not drive into it. The rest of the ships were attacked by trebuchets in the mountains, and if they forced their way in, they would suffer great losses, and they would be in danger of being surrounded and suppressed by the enemy's naval forces. ”

Zhou Yu was the former governor of Jiangdong and was very familiar with the waters of Jiangdong.

Qin Feng first agreed with Zhou Yu's statement, but said: "Baqiu is dangerous, holding Dongting Lake, easy to defend and difficult to attack. The enemy would never have thought that we would attack Baqiu, so this king will feign attacking Chibi here to attract the enemy's attention, and then send a naval army of marines to attack Baqiu by surprise. If you capture Baqiu, you will capture Dongting Lake, what do you think? ”

This tactic has a certain success rate and can be tried.

Gan Ning came out and said: "The last general is not talented, I am willing to lead the marines to surprise attack Baqiu and open up a landing point for our army on the second battlefield." ”

Pang Tong said: "If we can successfully open up the landing point and our army captures Changsha, we will be able to gain a firm foothold in Jingnan." It can also cut off the connection between Jiangdong and Liu Bei and Liu Zhang, and can enter Nanping Mountain, and encircle the main force of Jiangdong in Chibi before and after. ”

Therefore, Qin Feng formulated a strategy for the second battlefield, and ordered Gan Ning to lead five hundred marines to dive into Dongting Lake and attack Baqiu Mountain. Zhou Yu, the governor of the capital, led 20,000 soldiers and horses to respond, and if the surprise attack was successful, he hurriedly crossed Dongting Lake and attacked Changsha.

In Changsha, the Qin army had a base in Jingnan, and then the army continued to enter, entering Nanping Mountain in the east, and surrounding Chibi from the rear, which became a situation of flanking from the front and back.

Qin Feng asked Zhou Yu and Gan Ning to prepare first, and he would launch a fierce attack on Chibi five days later to attract the enemy's attention.

Three days later.

Chibi South, Soochow Daying.

In the big tent of the Chinese army, Lu Xun was quite worried, and said to the generals: "For several days, the enemy has not moved at all. ”

"Isn't there a big offensive brewing?" Lu Meng Dao.

"I think there's going to be something going on." Lu Xun thought for a while and said, "Quickly send someone to inform the lord that you must beware of the downstream ferry." He looked at the map of the river area and said, "Chen Wu and Pan Zhang, you two will take 3,000 soldiers and horses to strengthen the garrison of Dongting Lake." Ding Feng and Zhu Zhi, you two took 3,000 soldiers and horses to Hankou to strengthen the garrison there. ”

"In the past few days, all departments must cheer up and never let go of any trouble."

"Whoa!"

And the generals were commanded, and went their own way.

Two days later.

Chen Wu and Pan Zhang were stationed in Baqiu Mountain.

Legend has it that the name "Bachu" is derived from the "Ba Snake". The Ba Snake is a giant snake in ancient Chinese mythology, recorded in the "Classic of Mountains and Seas". Because of the cholera in the world, the Yellow Emperor sent people to expel him, and was finally shot by Hou Yi, and then split into two sections with a sword, and his bones were piled up into a small mountain, called "Baqiu", around the entrance of Dongting Lake and the Yangtze River.

Soochow built a position in Baqiu Mountain, and just in front of the water at the foot of the mountain, a high-rise building was built near the lake, called the Parade Tower. The interest is similar to that of a castle, looking down at the Dongting and looking at Jun Mountain in front.

This building is the predecessor of Yueyang Building in later generations. The main building is 20 meters high, with three floors, four columns, cornices, and helmet roofs. Its unique helmet top structure represents its military use.

Later generations have the reputation of "Dongting Tianxia Water, Yueyang Tianxia Tower", and Hubei Wuchang Yellow Crane Tower, Jiangxi Nanchang Tengwang Pavilion and called "the three famous buildings in the south of the Yangtze River".

This parade building is the headquarters of the Baqiu Dongwu Army.

During the day.

"Report ......, General, the enemy is storming my Chibi Water Village. The entire naval force was used, and it was the largest attack to date. ”

Chen Wu and Pan Zhang became nervous, and ordered the three armies of Baqiu to be on alert and ready to set off at any time.

Sunset dusk.

"Report to the ......, general, most of the governors are holding the water village, our army has won a complete victory, the enemy has suffered heavy losses, and has retreated."

Chen Wu and Pan Zhang breathed a sigh of relief.

Chen Wudao: "It is said that Governor Lu is young, but now it seems that the ability of Governor Lu is not under Governor Sima." ”

Pan Zhang thought so.

The soldier was tired due to a stressful day. So the two of them left the required guard troops, and the rest of the soldiers could all unload their armor and rest.

When the Eastern Wu soldiers learned of Lu Xun's victory, their mood relaxed too much.

Night.

More than a dozen Soochow boats cruised back and forth at the entrance of Dongting Lake.

The leading officer ordered to stop his boat, took out his fishing tackle, and said with a smile: "The flag of the Metropolitan Governor is victorious, and the Qin army is not afraid, it seems that it will definitely be able to catch a big fish today." ”

The soldiers laughed relaxedly, and the speed of the cruise unconsciously slowed down.

In the night, only three or five meters of water could be seen in front of the torches of Soochow. Not far from the entrance, many reeds floated in.

Gan Ning poked his head out and spit out a mouthful of water, he looked at the Dongwu patrol boat not far away, because there were torches on board, so he could see clearly in the night. After a few minutes, Gan Ning smiled and said, "The king is a god, the enemy only thinks that he is victorious, and he is too lax than a few days ago. You waited for a while, but when you saw the vision, you accelerated your dive and swam past, and the reeds for ventilation were all put away, and after passing the firelight, you could swim ten more feet to breathe. ”

The Marines were frogman troops, and they were all under orders.

It is said that Gan Ning sneaked over, and when he came to the surface of the water, the fire was bright, and he saw a fish hook in the water, which was empty. Gan Ning laughed in his heart, "There is no bait, what kind of fish do you catch with a mallet?" ”

Gan Ning is worthy of being a sailor who followed King Qin to ride a shark in Bohai Bay, he caught a big fish and hung it on the hook.

On the water.

The Dongwu officer was overjoyed, "Wowhaha, I'll just say, the governor of the capital wins, and I also follow the light here, look at it, what a big fish!" Say less about twenty pounds! ”

As the officers 'fish fight', the patrolmen's eyes were all drawn to it.

The vision appeared, and the waiting Qin Marines took a deep breath and moved underwater. Like dolphins, they quickly swept past the Soochow patrol fleet.

However, a Soochow soldier suddenly fell on the bow of the ship.
