Gan Ning sailed out of the hiding place with the sailor, and the emperor's went all the way up the Miluo River, and Zhang Xun and Sun Jian did not leave, and there were some small frictions between the two sides, Sun Jian and Zhang Xun lined up in the river and shot with a strong bow and crossbow for a while. The surface of the river here www.biquge.info is only two hundred paces wide, and it is fired from both sides, and it is within range, and it is impossible to shoot Gan Ning from the ground. Gan Ning was furious, and he wanted to kill one of them and fight hard, but when he thought of Yan Pu's words, he knew that he couldn't get any benefit from going ashore, so he had to huddle in the boat. Fortunately, Sun Jian and Zhang Xun also knew that they couldn't go into the water, otherwise they would be abused by them, not Gan Ning, and shot a burst of arrows, except for nailing thousands of arrows on Gan Ning's warship, not even a single one was injured, so they had to give up.

Gan Ning never gave up, and followed like a dog skin plaster, which made Zhang Xun and Sun Jian very upset, they couldn't beat it, and it was useless to scold, so they had to pretend not to see it.

You look at me, I look at you, and they walked fifty or sixty miles to the east and stopped at a place called Snake Tsui. The river here is relatively narrow, only about 100 paces, and further east, there are rolling hills, which are not easy to walk for the large amount of baggage carried by Zhang Xun.

Before erecting the pontoon bridge, he collected nearly 100 civilian boats, first loaded more than 30 boats with sand and gravel, and when he sailed to the middle of the river, he sank the boats to hinder Ganning's warships, and set up strong bows and crossbows on both sides of the 100 paces downstream of the pontoon bridge to intercept Ganning, and then arranged for more than 1,000 foot soldiers to board dozens of civilian boats, lined up in the river, and intercepted the Yizhou sailors for the last step.

When everything was ready, they began to erect pontoons, which were also simple, and the boats were crossed in the middle of the river, connected to each other with cables, and covered them with door panels that had been forcibly removed from the people's homes, and fixed them with nails or ropes, and when they were done. Although it was still a little shaky, it was no problem for the centaurs to walk on it.

While they were making these preparations, Gan Ning had been hiding in his cabin and watching, watching the location of Sun Jian's shipwreck. Watch them arrange crossbowmen on both sides of the river, watch them arrange intercepting soldiers under the pontoon bridge, and watch Zhang Xun start arranging troops to cross the river.

Then he gave the order to start the attack.

With the sound of war drums rising to the sky, more than a dozen Mengchong fighting ships rushed out of the military formation of the Yizhou Navy Division, and quickly approached the pontoon bridge. Braving the rain of arrows on both sides of the strait, they stubbornly advanced to the pontoon bridge.

Sun Jian and Zhang Xun both heard the war drums of the Yizhou sailors starting to attack, and saw the colorful flags flying on the medium-sized battleship on which Gan Ning was riding, and transmitted the orders to attack one after another to the warships, but did not respond to the fireworks that appeared at the same time as the drums and colored flags.

It was a firework that rushed into the sky behind the battle formation of the sailors, the sound of the explosion was drowned out by the fierce sound of war drums, but the color was very bright, like a red cloud. In the air for a long time.

All their energy was attracted by the battle that took place a hundred paces below the pontoon.

The Mengchong Fighting Ship was a small boat warship, with a long and narrow shape and quick action. The ship was covered with raw cowhides, and the soldiers and oarsmen hid underneath to avoid the attack of the arrows, but there were only about twenty people on board the ship, and excluding the oarsmen, there were only five or six real warriors. Such a ship is like a cavalry in a land battle, charging at speed, quickly splitting the opponent, and then dividing and conquering. In normal operations, Mengchong fighters operate in groups of tens or hundreds to offset the problem of weak attack power due to too few fighters. It was followed by large and medium-sized warships. In order to destroy the divided enemy army, the two sides engage in long-range bow and arrow exchange and hand-to-hand combat.

At this time, Sun Jian's role in setting obstacles to shipwrecks in the river was reflected. Although those sunken ships could not block the river, they effectively hindered the movement of large warships, and also limited the coordination of a large number of Mengchong operations. It will interfere with the movement of the warships behind and will not be able to rush up.

In this way, the number of Meng Chong who could really rush to the forefront to attack was very limited, and the soldiers of Yuan standing on the warship could calmly block with bows and crossbows and spears in their hands.

In the face of the absolute number of people, although they fought tenaciously, they could not break through the interception of Yuan's army, and could only look at the place where they were a hundred steps away, Zhang Xun's troops were crossing the river in an orderly manner.

The battle was fierce, but Yuan's army firmly gained the upper hand, and the three lines of defense set up by Sun Jian effectively contained Gan Ning's offensive. Gan Ning was very angry, and personally jumped on the fighting ship and rushed to the front line, leading the brocade guards to fight and rush. Their charge had a certain impact on Yuan's defensive line, but after Sun Jian promptly added crossbowmen to attack Gan Ning's flanks, he still failed to break the formation and had to retreat in disgrace.

Seeing that the situation was unfavorable, Gan Ning no longer used the Meng Chong fighting ship to come forward to die, but carefully drove the medium-sized battleship through those sunken ships, as long as the medium-sized battleship could rush up, and then break through the Yuan army who were standing on the civilian ships to intercept it. However, medium-sized warships have a deep draft, and it is not easy to get through those obstacles. Sun Jian looked at the cautious Yizhou sailor, and showed a smug smile, waiting for Gan Ning to pass these obstacles, he was afraid that Zhang Xun had already crossed the river safely. With two or three thousand people in Ganning, would he dare to go ashore to chase him?

Gan Ning was driving the boat, Zhang Xun was crossing the river, and Sun Jian was sneering.

Time is like the water of the Miluo River, passing slowly and unconsciously. Zhang Xun looked at the soldiers who had already crossed half of the time, and finally breathed a sigh of relief, in two hours, he could cross the Miluo River safely, join forces with Sun Jian, and walk for two days, he entered Linxiang City and completed his task. And Gan Ning is still slowly moving the warship in the river, his main ship was hung up by the sunken ship and ran aground, and now he can't move, if there are enough warships, now is the best time to rush up and besiege Gan Ning.

However, Zhang Xun was very restrained, he knew that although Gan Ning was stranded, it was still an unrealistic idea to defeat the warships of the Yizhou Naval Division with only one hundred and ten civilian ships, and he could fight like this today, firstly because of his prudence, and secondly, because of Sun Jian's proper tactics. Sun Jian is a native of Wu County, grew up by the river, and is no stranger to water warfare, and several of his arrangements are very targeted, and he restrained Gan Ning very well.

Zhang Xun was very satisfied and ordered the baggage battalion behind him to start preparing. There were many large trucks in the baggage battalion, and it was difficult for these vehicles to walk on the pontoon bridge, so they had to unload some of the supplies first and transport them over in batches.

Feng Fang walked over with a smile on his face: "The general really has a way." Gan Ning can only jump on the boat now, watching us cross the river safely. ”

Zhang Xun smiled slightly, "This is the credit of General Sun, and I am also a success." ”

Feng Fang looked at Sun Jian, who was sitting on horseback watching the battle on the other side of the river, and smiled. said mysteriously, "General, Sun Jian is indeed very strong, but I believe that the greatest credit this time is you, the general." ”

Zhang Xun glanced at him, feeling a little unhappy in his heart, but he also knew that what Feng Fang said was the truth, and Yuan Shu relied on Sun Jian. But he didn't have complete trust in Sun Jian. This time, Sun Jian took the initiative to ask Ling to come to Changsha to contain Liu Xiu, and Yuan Shu took his son Sun Ce with him as a hostage. After he and Sun Jian joined forces, there were a total of 20,000 troops, which was not a small number, and with Yuan Shu's character, he would not hand over all the military power to Sun Jian, and it was almost expected that he would balance Sun Jian.

Of course, the person who is most trusted by Yuan Shu is not him. It's the Feng Fang in front of him. Feng Fang's daughter is very beautiful, and it is expected that she will be favored in the future, isn't Feng Fang a relative?

Zhang Xun just wanted to flatter Feng Fang for a few words. saw Feng Fang looking into the distance, his eyes were a little surprised. Zhang Xun turned around, narrowed his eyes, and saw a ride running in the distance. The knight lay on the horse's back, and the horse was already flying with four hooves in the air, running as hard as he could, but the knight still waved the whip in his hand, again and again, and whipped the war horse without pity.

"Not good!" Zhang Xun suddenly felt a wave of uneasiness and immediately stood up.

The knight rushed to the front. Before the horse could steady, he jumped off the horse's back, ran a few steps forward, and almost knocked Zhang Xun down. Zhang Xun pushed his hand and held the knight, comforting, "Don't worry, speak slowly." What do you see? ”

The knight breathed rapidly, but his face was pale, he held Zhang Xun's arm with one hand, pointed behind him with the other, opened his mouth a few times, and finally spit out the two words "enemy" with difficulty...... Raid! ”

Zhang Xun didn't have to listen to him, he already understood. He looked at the sky in the west, a straight and high smoke and dust soared into the sky, Zhang Xun understood that it was cavalry, a phenomenon that only happened when a large number of cavalry were charging.

How could there be a large number of cavalry? Zhang Xun didn't understand, but now was not the time to think why, he watched more and more scouts running over, knew that something was wrong, immediately jumped on his horse, and ordered the soldiers who were still on the north bank to line up to meet the enemy.

Zhang Xun was not defenseless against enemy attacks, he arranged a thousand people to guard five miles behind the battle, but he never imagined that a large number of cavalry would appear, no matter how strong the thousand people were, they would definitely not be able to support such an opponent for long.

The enemy was soon to be killed, and there were only baggage battalions and less than a thousand foot soldiers left on his side, and a large number of supplies were unloaded on the ground, and there was no time to reload them, and even if they were, these heavy baggage trucks could not cross the pontoon bridge.

Zhang Xun was so anxious that cold sweat broke out on his forehead, but he did not hesitate to shout loudly, "Guard the battalion, follow me to meet the enemy!" He looked at Feng Fang, who was already colorless, "Lord Feng, you immediately cross the bridge and meet General Sun." ”

Feng Fang came back to his senses at this time, and hurriedly ran towards the pontoon bridge with his entourage, as for the baggage battalion he was in charge of, he had already been thrown into Java.

Sun Jian on the other side also saw the incoming enemy, he was stunned and inexplicable, and he couldn't understand where these cavalry came from, and why Zhang Xun didn't mention it before. He didn't know at all, Zhang Xun was also confused now, and he didn't know where these cavalry came from.

This is all thanks to Yan Pu's arrangement. It is common sense that foot soldiers, usually thirty to forty miles a day, and the range of scouts is so far away, and it does not require much consideration. And Yan Pu took these into account, because he was a graduate of Guan Middle School, and Xun You specifically mentioned this when he gave them a lecture. The speed of the cavalry far exceeded that of the foot soldiers, thirty miles was an hour's journey for the cavalry, and fifty miles was only two hours, and this was the speed that could ensure that there was still strength to fight after arrival.

Therefore, Yan Pu suggested that Zhang Fei keep the army hidden near Miluoyuan, and one hiding was two days, and the scouts arranged by Zhang Xun the next day would no longer go to Miluoyuan to inquire about the news, and they knew nothing about the five thousand elite cavalry who were only more than 30 miles away from them. At the beginning of the war, Gan Ning used fireworks to send signals, and these signals were transmitted to Zhang Fei's hands through relays, but it only took a meal to reach Zhang Fei's hands, and Zhang Fei immediately ordered the whole army of five thousand elite cavalry to go out and rush out with the momentum of a tiger descending the mountain.

Fifty miles, two hours, easy to arrive, with the overwhelming momentum of Mount Tai defeated Zhang Xun arranged a thousand men and horses, it was regarded as a taste of appetizers, and then began to charge at full speed, like a tide towards Zhang Xun and the mountains of baggage.

One hit.

Just when Zhang Xun and Sun Jian were surprised by the cavalry falling from the sky, Gan Ning suddenly became powerful, and several warships that had been pretending to be pretended to work together to force their strength, risking being damaged by the sinking ship, forcibly passed the water barrier, and rushed straight towards the Yuan army who were standing on the civilian ships to fight. These soldiers armed with spears and knives and the soldiers on Meng Chong could still rely on the advantage of numbers to stabilize their positions when fighting, but in the face of the medium-sized warships that rushed over, they completely lost the ability to resist.

The warships slammed over, directly knocking over those civilian boats, and the soldiers fell into the water with a scream, although the river was not cold, but it was impossible to fight again. Fortunately, the Yizhou sailors were not in the mood to pay attention to them now, and the oarsmen, under the command of the neat drums, paddled hard, broke through the interception of Yuan Jun at the fastest speed, and rushed to the pontoon bridge.

The sound of "click" was endless, the pontoon bridge shook, broken, and capsized under the fierce impact of the battleship, and the soldiers on the pontoon bridge screamed in horror, some ran to the two banks, some crouched down and lay on the plank, and some held on to anything around them, trying in vain to stabilize their bodies.

"Crash! Knock them over! Gan Ning shouted with red eyes, and several brocade-clothed teenagers flew down, jumped onto the pontoon bridge and slashed with knives. In a short time, the cable was cut and the pontoon collapsed in an instant. Feng Fang, under the protection of several guards, saw that he was about to set foot on the solid ground on the opposite bank, but there was a sudden violent shaking under his feet, and then everything in front of him spun, and with a cry of "ahh

As soon as Sun Jian saw the cavalry on the opposite bank rushing out of the horizon, he knew that something was wrong, and while shouting for Huang Gai to straighten out the team, he rushed towards the pontoon bridge on his horse, wanting to go over to help, but he didn't expect Gan Ning, who had been circling in the center of the river, to suddenly become powerful, and watched the sailor's warship break through the blockade, break the pontoon bridge, and have a cold war, he raised his head and looked at Gan Ning's warship, and saw Gan Ning's sneering face and the bow raised in his hand.

"General be careful!" Huang Gai in the distance also saw this scene and screamed in fright.

Sun Jianqing snorted, the spear in his hand was raised instinctively, and the spearhead flashed. Arrows and spears intersect to knock out a brilliant spark. However, he didn't have a trace of pride in his heart, looking at Zhang Xun who was lining up on the other side, Sun Jian and Feng Fang, who was struggling in the river, kept sinking and sinking.
