Chapter 484, the battle of crossing the river
Standing on the south bank of Guandu, looking at the rolling and rushing Yellow River, Xiahoudun was anxious and couldn't stop thinking in a deep voice. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
There is the Yellow River in front of the block, if you want to kill into Jizhou, you must cross the river, but Gan Ning's men and horses are stationed on the north bank early, and they have long been waiting for them, Cao Cao's Yanzhou soldiers are all northerners, these people are not accustomed to water, they are all landlubbers, even if they stand on a stable bow, their bodies will shake left and right, and it is difficult to gain a firm foothold.
"Big brother, it's been a few days since I've been here, and if I delay like this, won't it delay the lord's major event, no, it's better to give me 10,000 horses, I'll run overnight, cross the river from Puyang and go around behind the other party to sneak attack?" Compared with Xiahoudun, Xiahou Yuan's temperament is even more anxious.
Xiahoudun pondered for a while, seeing that Xiahou Yuan was eager to fight, it just so happened that Xiahou Yuan was good at running thousands of miles and was proficient in blitzkrieg, Xiahoudun nodded, and repeatedly told Xiahou Yuan to be careful, Xiahou Yuan nodded, "Brother, don't worry, it's okay!" ”
Xiahou Yuan is known as a cheetah, has always been good at blitzkrieg, and is even more handy for long-distance attacks, and got Xiahou Yuan's consent, Xiahou Yuan immediately bid farewell to Xiahou Yuan, and ordered all the people to sink down while the sky was dark, and then quietly left Cao Ying.
Although he is anxious and likes to fight quickly, Xiahou Yuan is not a reckless man without brains!
Leaving Guandu and getting on the main road, Xiahou Yuan's cavalry completely spread the joy, it was simply galloping, light riding in front, heavy riding in the back, everyone rode horses and whips, day and night.
"Five hundred in three days, one thousand in five days." This is not difficult for Xiahou Yuan.
In order to attract Gan Ning's attention and cover Xiahou Yuan's thousands of miles of urgency, Xiahou decided to cross the river after thinking about it again and again.
"Trumpet, drum!"
Two days later, everything was ready, and Xiahoudun gave an order, and the Cao soldiers lifted the bamboo rafts they had built and rushed into the turbulent Yellow River, densely packed, and went straight to the north bank.
Gan Ning received the report, did not say a word, immediately sent an order to meet the enemy, Gan Ning personally led 3,000 Jinfan soldiers on the north bank to board the raft and go south, did not wait for Xiahoudun to cross the river more than half before attacking, fighting in the water, even if the enemy soldiers are numerous, Gan Ning is not afraid.
The river rushed, the waves rolled, and the waves crashed against the reef on the shore, splashing in all directions, making a deafening sound.
As soon as the Yanzhou soldiers entered the river, they seemed to be flustered, swaying left and right one by one, their frightened faces were like earth, their bodies were like sifting chaff, waves of huge waves were coming, Cao Bing's ghosts couldn't stop roaring and screaming, and they were very embarrassed.
Gan Ning was dressed in a tight short fight, exposing his chest, the burly muscles, bulging and angry, hard as iron ore, the black pressure on the chest of a piece of heart hair, upside down, dense, looks very vicious, and then look at the big knife in Gan Ning's hand, the knife is wide and thick, flashing with a compelling cold light, cold and eye-catching, shining and shining.
Gan Ning was motionless, with an evil sneer on his angular face, for him, these Cao soldiers brought by Xiahoudun were simply beyond his strength to fight against him in the water.
And facts have proved that Gan Ning does not look down on Cao Bing, he has this self-confidence and this strength.
As soon as they fought, Cao Bing was in a mess, and was instantly rushed by the Jinfan Army, and Cao Bing gathered together, the team was in chaos, and suddenly people turned over on their backs, and they were only rammed by the Jinfan Army's bamboo raft, and there were countless people who fell into the water.
The bamboo raft of the Jinfan Army is like a sharp cone, constantly impacting Cao Bing's bamboo raft, Cao Bing was already standing unsteadily, and falling into the water was even more hurried and embarrassed, Jinfan Army put the bamboo raft close to Cao Bing, and directly boarded Cao Bing's bamboo raft, and some jumped into the water with knives to cover up Cao Bing who fell into the water.
Gan Ning boarded Cao Bing's bamboo raft, the tiger entered the flock of sheep, the shark knife dance in his hand made a loud noise, whirring and hanging in the wind, the blade passed by, blood splashed, and the stumps danced wildly, Cao Bing couldn't even stand steadily, where was Gan Ning's opponent, even, the more people sometimes got in the way, even if they wanted to dodge, they also found that this was an extravagant hope.
"Poof, poof..."
Gan Ning stabbed one by one, like chopping melons and vegetables, without suspense, effortlessly, many people were so frightened that they took the initiative to jump into the water, some were swept away by the huge waves, some were directly cut off by the Jinfan Army in the water, and some kept floating and sinking like a ball, and were dragged into the water by the Jinfan Army who liked to play and drowned alive.
Xiahoudun was a tentative way to cross the river, but he didn't expect the Jinfan army to be so brave in the water, he was shocked, and hurriedly ordered Mingjin to retreat, only one battle, Cao's soldiers were killed and wounded no less than 4,000 people, on the other hand, the Jinfan army was only a few hundred.
"There are only a few thousand sailors on the other side... It shouldn't be difficult to deal with. ”
After collecting the troops, Xiahou Dun rode his horse to patrol along the river, thinking about countermeasures, suddenly his eyes lit up, his hands turned into fists, and he slammed them together, and happily said to himself, "Why don't you ask Sun Jian for help!" ”
Cao Cao has no water army here, and the generals are not used to water warfare, but Sun Jian has a water army that is proficient in water warfare.
Sun Jian is also separated from the righteous army by a Yellow River on this side, but the advantage is very obvious, even if it is the general Zhao Yun who guards the north bank, Zhao Yun cannot resist tens of thousands of Jiangdong sailors crossing the river together.
Sun Ce just didn't want to fight with Chen Qi, and he couldn't escape, just when Xiahoudun sent someone to ask for help, Sun Ce led his troops to Guandu.
Sun Ce brought not many people, only 10,000 people, but they were all Jiangdong sailors who were accustomed to fighting, as well as Jiang Qin and Zhou Tai, two fierce generals.
In a series of several battles, although not a single enemy general was allowed to cross the river, Gan Ning's Jinfan army paid a heavy price, and after two days of hard fighting, the Jinfan army was almost completely lost.
Fortunately, there are still thousands of slightly inferior new soldiers behind them, these people have not been trained for a long time, and their combat strength is not even half of the Jinfan Army, but none of them admit to killing the enemy in battle.
"Behind us is the land of Jizhou, and we must not allow the enemy to cross the river and land on the shore, fight to the death and not retreat, and fight to the death!"
Gan Ning roared as a tiger, and the Jizhou Navy all responded.
"Kill..."Gan Ning led the troops again, Sun Ce's heart was not a taste, he waved his hand, and just wanted to pause crossing the river, when suddenly a fast horse galloped from a distance, Sun Cewan did not expect that this was actually the military order of his father Sun Jian.
"The eldest prince, the lord has an order, you must cross the river and go north as soon as possible, and the Jiangdong soldiers of the lord will defeat Chen Qi in one fell swoop!" (To be continued.) )
