Chapter 183: Water Overlord

Xiakou Water Village, on the wooden city wall.

Countless archers looked nervously ahead, it was the direction of Shiyang. Shiyang Water Village, like the Xiakou Water Thief, is a half-city, half-water village building.

It was the cantonment site of Liu Biao's army, and the permanent strength was only 1,000. But there were quite a few warships. It was used as a ferry port for Liu Biao's foot soldiers to go south.

Such a water village, there are Hanyang and Wulin in the north of the Yangtze River.

These places are only across the river from Xiakou. But at this moment, a monstrous fire was coming from the direction of Shiyang Water Village, and bursts of screams kept coming.

Countless warships of the Jiangdong Navy went on a rampage.

"Damn." Among the soldiers, Gan Ning, who was wearing a suit of armor, held the hilt of the sword at his waist tightly, his face was bruised, and he gritted his teeth and spit out two words.

I thought that Jiangdong would advance by land and water, and attack Wuchang and Xiakou at the same time, but I didn't expect that the Jiangdong people would only attack Shiyang, and I am afraid that the next Hanyang and Wulin are all within their target.

Burn the ferry, burn the warship, and cut them off from Liu Biao.

To be honest, Gan Ning is not a man who sits and watches the enemy army rage, when those warships in Jiangdong burned down Shiyang Water Village, there was a meaning of going south to Hanyang, Gan Ning couldn't help it anymore.

"Prepare the warship. I'm going out to save Hanyang. Gan Ning turned around and said.

"Brother Gan, no. The purpose of those people in Jiangdong to burn the swaggering burning Shiyang was to burn Liu Biao's warship, but there must have been a conspiracy to induce my brother to attack, and then defeat our naval army and take advantage of the situation to attack Xiakou. If my brother can't help but attack, Xia Kou will be difficult to protect. When Zhang Gu heard this, he persuaded him.

Just like Zhang Gu said, the current Jiangxia Navy is definitely not the opponent of the Jiangdong Navy Army, and there is only a dead end in attacking.

"Damn." Gan Ning screamed aggrievedly, but he also had a little sense because of Zhang Gu's words, going out to fight is definitely a defeat, failure doesn't matter, if he loses Xiakou, Jiang Xia will suffer from the enemy.

"Hurry up and inform the lord, and say that the Jiangdong Navy has broken through Shiyang and is currently heading south to Hanyang and Wulin. All the way from Jiangxia to Jiangling, I am afraid that Liu Biao's water army and water village are in danger. As soon as he regained his senses, Gan Ning immediately ordered.

"No." Zhang Gu answered, immediately climbed down the rope ladder from the water village, and gave the order to go.

"Liu Biao's army is really weak." After giving Zhang Gu's instructions, Gan Ning looked at Shi Yang, who was blazing, and scolded in his heart. Looking at the number of warships in Jiangdong, the naval army should be less than 5,000 people.

And the Shiyang garrison also had a thousand people. In just a few moments, it was breached. It's really vulnerable.

The news soon spread from Xiakou to Xiling.

In the study of Taishou Mansion, Liu Fengmeng patted the case, his expression was hideous, "Damn, Liu Biao not only wants me to resist Zhou Yu, but also wants Zhou Yu to weaken my power." ”

Knowing the news that Zhou Yu would enter the army, Liu Feng immediately asked the Iraqi official document to go to Xiangyang, and Liu Feng personally wrote a letter to Cai Mao.

I hope Liu Biao can send troops over, not much, just 3,000 people. If there is more, Liu Feng is also afraid that Liu Biao will have some conspiracy.

But Liu Biao dragged it, and this delay was a month. Thirty thousand stone of grain and grass were brought in, and fifty thousand arrows were delivered. At present, the capital is in Xiakou.

It is clear that he wants to consume his troops, and he wants to use his ability to resist Zhou Yu.

Originally, it was nothing, Liu Feng planned to send someone to coerce Liu Biao and ask him to send troops when he was in danger. But now Zhou Yu's actions completely disrupted his plans.

That guy actually crossed Jiangxia directly, and the navy army ran rampant into Jingzhou, wanting to burn all the ferries in the Jiangling area, so that Liu Biao's foot soldiers could not go south.

makes Jiangxia truly an isolated island.

It's not that he didn't expect Zhou Yu to do this, Liu Feng didn't expect Liu Biao's army to be so weak.

"The lord is angry, now is not the time for resentment, he should first send someone to suppress General Gan, so that he cannot go out on the expedition and stick to the water village. 3,000 troops, 50,000 arrows, and 30,000 stone of grain were enough to hold out until the end of the war. Pang Tong stood aside, his face was very calm, and said.

"Hmm." Liu Feng calmed down when he heard this, nodded, and immediately wrote a letter, ordering the soldiers to send it to Xiakou quickly.

Only four words, stick to the water village.

"I originally thought that Zhou Yu would advance by land and water, the navy army would break through Xiakou, the foot soldiers would break through Wuchang, and finally the round in Xiling, but now it seems that Zhou Yu just wanted to use the foot soldiers to fight the victory. The trolls are just trying to cut us off from Liu Biao. Liu Feng said with a sneer in his eyes.

"I'm afraid that's not only that, but in addition to burning the ferries and warships and cutting off our contact with Liu Biao, I'm afraid he also has the intention of guarding against Cao Ren in the north. If Cao Ren also completed his troops and took the opportunity to attack Jiangxia, without warships, Cao Ren would only be able to capture a few cities in the north of the Yangtze River, and would not be able to go south. The goal is very clear, he only wants Jiangxia Banjun south of the Yangtze River. Pang Tong shook his head and said.

This is such a self-confidence, with the conceit of a foot pawn, he can go down to Jiangxia in a fight.

Zhou Yu's guy was really ten times more difficult to deal with than Huang Zu, twenty times more difficult. Whether it is IQ or the quality of the army, there is too much difference, and the navy can actually break Liu Biao's three or four water villages in a row.

is also a territory south of the Yangtze River, Jing Chu and Wu Yue are both famous for producing water armies, but Liu Biao is too far behind. Koto is the real water overlord.

"Now that the war has burned to Liu Biao's homeland, these water villages in the Jiangling area have been breached, which is enough for Liu Biao to eat a pot. Did Shi Yuan think that Liu Biao would be furious and send the Xiangyang Navy to help in the war? Liu Feng suddenly asked.

Of course, Liu Biao's army will not be only a little bit, because of Huang Zu's presence in the past, the Jiangxia Navy has 8,000 people, and the attack is insufficient, but the strength to resist the Jiangdong Navy is still there. Therefore, most of the ferries in the Gangneung area were warships, and only a small number of soldiers were guarded.

Liu Biao's army is all in Xiangyang. Tens of thousands. Seeing that Liu Biao's army is so useless now, Liu Feng doesn't expect to be elite, but the number is there.

If Liu Biao is angry, he will lead tens of thousands of sailors to the south. Jiangdong's 5,000 naval army is simply not enough to see.

"Liu Biao is afraid of Wancheng Cao Ren like a tiger, how could he let the Xiangyang Navy go south at will. For now, we are on our own. Pang Tong shook his head and said.

"Mother-in-law, mother-in-law, let him send 3,000 troops over and shirk it, it is this caste that makes the Jiangdong Sun family sit big. After repelling Zhou Yu, I asked Gan Ning to lead the people to attack Jiangling, which was the hinterland of Jingzhou, and the defenders had not been in battle for a long time, and their training was slack. And because it is the reserve city of Jingzhou, a large amount of grain, grass and weapons have been hoarded. Snatched it. Liu Feng's eyes were shining.

Now is not the time when Jiang Xia has just decided, now is the first decided. The quality of the army has risen a little, and Liu Feng is not incapable of sacking Jiangling.

He was willing to be a minister and guard the door for Liu Biao, but Liu Biao still wanted to weaken him with the help of Zhou Yu's hand.

The so-called you do the first year of junior high school, and I do the fifteenth. Liu Feng is not afraid of him.

But Liu Feng knew that it was an afterthought, and now he was being pressed and beaten by the navy, and the foot soldiers were also on the defensive. Not to mention dealing with Liu Biao, dealing with Zhou Yu is enough of a headache.

"In fact, this time Zhou Yu used the water army to contain us, which is also beneficial to us. He has less than 10,000 foot soldiers, and we have 8,000 foot soldiers, and the fortification of the city. And if you can pull out its pioneer, the chance of winning is almost seventy percent. Seeing Liu Feng gritting his teeth, Pang Tong smiled slightly and said.

"Since the navy has moved, the foot soldiers are also fast. Ordered Huang Zhong to divide the soldiers and horses of the battalion into two, he led 3,000 troops and Chen Da led the broken army, and the second battalion of the divine arm moved into Wuchang with me. Ordered Deng Ai to lead the base camp of 1,000 people, and Huang Zhong's remaining 2,000 people. A total of 3,000 soldiers and horses entered Xiling to defend. Since he knew that this was not the time to be angry with Liu Biao, Liu Feng quickly gave an order.

This is the plan that Pang Tong made with him, only to protect three cities. Xiakou, Xiling, Wuchang. All three of these cities are tall and have important cities that can be defended. As long as these three cities are guarded, the Jiangxia area will not be out of Liu Feng's control.

"Xiling will be handed over to Shiyuan." After giving the order, Liu Feng said to Pang Tong. But he went to the front line in person and entrusted the rear to Pang Tong.

"No." Pang Tong's expression was solemn, and he promised.

The three cities of Xiakou, Xiling and Wuchang are a straight line. And Xiling is in the middle, if Xiling is breached, Xiakou and Wuchang are like snakes that have been cut off from their abdomen, and they can only wait for death.

Liu Feng wanted to lead the troops to fight with Zhou Yu's vanguard, and the burden was very heavy. Pang Tong's is not small.

Both of them knew equally well in their hearts that this was a crisis, a huge crisis. However, as long as you cross it, it is a vast sea and sky, and there are no clouds.

As long as they persisted until the Shanyue tribes in Jiangdong rebelled again, Zhou Yu had to retreat to quell the rebellion.

It will take at least a few months, if not a year, to quell the unrest. With all this time, Liu Feng and Pang Tong fully believed that they could train an elite army.

Whether it is a navy or a foot soldier, it can fight with Jiangdong, and it will not be like now, the water army is suppressed and does not dare to take the lead, and the foot soldier can only defend.

With a month of full preparation, Liu Feng personally led his troops to Wuchang to fight to the death with Zhou Yu and defend Jiangxia.

At the same time, inside the city of Xiangyang.

In the study, Liu Biao and Kuai Yue sat opposite each other. At this moment, the look on Liu Biao's face was a little strange, it seemed to be a little happy, but at the same time a little worried.

"Lord, do you really not send the Xiangyang Navy to the south? If Jiangxia is broken, we will directly face the troops of Jiangdong. It will be like these sayings, the Jiangdong naval army can go on a rampage, go straight into the hinterland of Jiangling, break through the water village, and burn our warships. The two were silent for a while, and Kuai Yue said softly.

He knew why Liu Biao was happy and why he was worried.

Liu Ban Huang Zu and Liu Biao said that there was a hatred for seizing generals. Threatening Liu Biao to retreat and be humiliated. Now seeing Zhou Yu marching into the army, it is no wonder that Liu Biao will be happy, and in the face of Liu Feng's request for help, he only gave heavy grain and grass, but did not send troops to rescue.

Before Kuai Yue, Cai Mao persuaded Liu Biao because of Liu Feng's letter, but Liu Biao still stuck to his own opinion and insisted on not sending troops to rescue.

Of course, Cai Mao didn't want Liu Feng to be in danger, so he sent someone to ask Kuai Yue to come out of the mountain and let Kuai Yue persuade Liu Biao to enter the army. It's just that Kuai Yue didn't succeed either.

It can be seen how much Liu Biao hates Liu Feng.

But when the war started, the news that Shiyang, Hanyang, Wulin and other water villages were breached came, and in the face of the fact that it was difficult to ferry to Jiangxia in Jingzhou, Liu Biao was worried again. Because Jiangxia is broken, Jingzhou will face an attack from Jiangdong.

Liu Biao is this kind of person, complicated and worried.
