。 Peng Dunze is deep outside. If you look carefully, there are a lot of warships moored here, and you can see that this is a water village. Yes, this is one of the water villages of the Jiangdong Navy in Peng Dunze, and the commander of this water plug is Jiang Qin, the general of Jiangdong. This Jiang Qin and Zhou Tai were born as water bandits, and the entire Yangtze River, starting from Jingzhou Nanjun to Jiangxia, this section of the waterway used to belong to the territory of the Jinfan thieves. Further east, a section of Lujiang County and a section of Jiujiang County belong to the territory of Jiu**.

The bosses of these nine ** are Jiang Qin and Zhou Tai.

And since Sun Ce sent troops to Ping Jiangdong. Jiang Qin and Zhou Tai led nine ** to each other, and these people also formed the initial team of the Jiangdong Water Army. However, the number of nine ** is far inferior to Jinfan, and there are only 300 people. Now these three hundred and nine ** have all been put into the water, and they have followed Zhou Tai to become Sun Jian's guard. And Jiang Qin, who was slightly inferior in martial arts, became a capable naval general in Jiangdong.

Now that Cheng Pu, Huang Gai and others are getting older, the real backbone of Jiangdong's generals is Jiang Qin, Chen Wu, Dong Xi and several others.

At this time, in the hall of the water village, a soldier in ragged clothes with a gray and black face knelt down in front of Jiang Qin, and arched his hand: "General, when Nanchang City was attacked by the enemy and the villain escaped, Nanchang City had already been lost!" ”

When Jiang Qin heard this, he was surprised: "Nanchang City is lost? ”

The soldier heard it and said categorically: "What the villain said is true!" ”

Jiang Qin heard this, frowned and asked, "Do you know where the people came from?" ”

The soldier replied, "It is dark, and the people can't see the banner." However, when the villain was attacking the city, he heard that those people were not speaking Chinese, they should be barbarians! Jiang Qin waved his hand and said, "Okay!" Ben will believe you, and go out first. ”

After the soldier went out, Jiang Qin recruited a few lieutenants and asked them to go out to order troops. At this time, Ding Feng, who had been severely injured by Zhang Quan and had recovered from his illness, saw that something was wrong, so he stepped forward and said to Jiang Qin: "General, Nanchang City has been lost. According to General Lu's orders, we should immediately go north to Chaisang City to consolidate the defense of Chaisang City. ”

Jiang Qin heard Ding Feng's words, but laughed and said: "Chengyuan is too suspicious, and the military chariot also said that it is the barbarians who are attacking the city, if the general is not bad, it should be those Shanyue who have moved again." Now it is the spring ploughing season, and there is no grain in the mountains, so it is not impossible to attack the city and grab grain. ”

Ding Feng heard this, and hurriedly said: "But General Lu said that if Nanchang City is lost, you must not move lightly, and you must go back to guard Chaisang first." As for the time to recapture Nanchang City, General Lu had his own plans. If the general rashly attacks now, I am afraid that it will disrupt General Lu's arrangement! ”

Jiang Qin snorted heavily when he heard this. said: "In your eyes, only Lu Meng has a general? ”

Ding Feng heard Jiang Qin's words, and knew that something was wrong, and hurriedly said, "General, you misunderstood. Zhou Dudu said before the Northern Expedition that the defense of Yuzhang County was completely controlled by General Lu."

Jiang Qin heard this, waved his big hand, and said, "Where is so much nonsense." He Lu Meng is working for Wu Hou, and I, Jiang Qin, am also working for Wu Hou. This is supposed to be the final say, even if Lu Meng is there in person. It is not his turn to decide whether to send troops or not! ”

Ding Feng heard that he already knew that Jiang Qin had made up his mind, and at the same time sighed secretly in his heart. Since Sun Jian's victory, the Jiangdong generals are most convinced of Sun Ce, followed by Zhou Yu, who made great efforts in the Pingjiangdong period. As for Cheng Pu and other veterans, where are the qualifications, everyone can't help but disagree. However, since the group of generals who came out with Sun Ceping Jiangdong, Cheng Pu and other veterans have not had much opportunity to command the war, at most they are the existence of the supervising army.

As for Lu Meng, he is more prominent among Jiang Qin's group. Especially after Sun Quan persuaded him to study, Lu Meng became able to write and martial arts, and was deeply valued by Zhou Yu. It's just that Lü Meng is different from the rest of the generals of the same period, because Lü Meng was persuaded by Sun Quan, so he belongs to the minority faction that supports Sun Quan. Jiang Qin and the other generals were originally dissatisfied with Lü Meng riding on their heads, and Lü Meng supported Sun Quan but did not support Sun Ce, which made Jiang Qin and others even more disgusted. And they were also a little dissatisfied with Zhou Yu, Sun Ce's righteous brother, Lu Meng, but because Sun Ce didn't say anything, and Zhou Yu's prestige was also high, all the generals just held it in their hearts and didn't say anything. Now without Zhou Yu's moderation, trouble will come out.

Ding Feng persuaded Jiang Qin bitterly, and he had already gone out to order troops, so Ding Feng knew that it was not good. So he immediately arranged a small boat and wrote a letter to the guards to find Lu Meng. He hurriedly followed out and said to Jiang Qin: "Since the general is going to Nanchang City, let the last general follow suit." ”

Jiang Qin had the intention to let Ding Feng see how powerful he was, so he nodded and agreed.

Jiang Qin ignored Ding Feng either, lit up eight warships and fifty walkers and got out of the water jam. And Ding Feng could only get on the only ship that was not driven away by Jiang Qin, and led more than ten small walkers to follow behind. Jiang Qin led the navy to look in the direction of Nanchang City in the night.

Nanchang City is only next to Peng Duize, and what is connected to Zhang Duze is a river and lake Hanshui that runs through the entire Nanchang City, which is the Kanjiang River in later generations.

After Jiang Qin's navy came out of Peng Dunze, the warship sailed directly into the Huhan water, because the warship was not slow, and the warship had arrived at the city of Nanchang around the fourth watch.

Jiang Qin was naturally very familiar with Nanchang City, and when he saw the city wall of Nanchang City, Jiang Qin ordered loudly: "Leave two ships and ten ships here to attack the two water gates in the north of the city." After speaking, he pointed to a lieutenant general and said, "You will lead five ships to the south of the city and make a feint there." The rest of the people will all attack the water gate in the east of the city with Ben! ”

After Jiang Qin finished speaking, he personally took charge of the Tuo and controlled the ship he was on to turn to the east. When the ship approached the city, Jiang Qin heard someone shouting above the city: "Oh no, the enemy is attacking!" Enemy attack

After Jiang Qin heard this, he smiled coldly and said, "Only reacted at this time? It's late! After speaking, Jiang Qin shouted: "Add oars, quick!" ”

The soldiers below the ship listened to Jiang Qin's order, and immediately sped up the degree of rowing, so that the degree of the ship increased a little. When Jiang Qin took advantage of the moonlight to see the water gate getting closer and closer. Then he said to one of the lieutenants: "You will lead a ship to go away, open the secret door of the Water Gate, and let my army in." The lieutenant heard this and immediately left.

Jiang Qin continued to sail forward, but after a while, the lieutenant general sent back a soldier and shouted under the ship: "The general" is blocked by a big iron cable, and even the old lungs can't enter the top six" Jiang Qin heard it and said in surprise: "What? Then he said hatefully: "What a cunning enemy, it will depend on whether you have so many iron cables!" Then he ordered loudly: "Wait for you to go to the other water gates to investigate!" The soldiers below heard this and immediately went away.

After a while. Two walkers came from behind. He shouted to Jiang Qin's Yu ship: "General, the two water gates in the north of the city are sealed by the enemy with iron cables, and we can't wait for the warships to enter the city." ”

Jiang Qin heard this, slapped the side of the boat, and said hatefully: "Good thief! How did you use this to stop my navy from entering the city? ”

At this moment, the front one approached quickly, and a soldier waved his hand to Jiang Qin's side, and said loudly: "General, there is no iron cable in the south water gate, and the secret door has been opened, the general is here!" ”

Jiang Qin was overjoyed when he heard this, and said with a smile: "Fortunately, the general came early, otherwise it would be troublesome to delay it for a few more days and let the enemy seal the water gate with iron cables." After speaking, he immediately commanded eight warships to sail into the water gate in the south of the city. The water gate to the south was relatively limited to one passing warship. Jiang Qin is also cautious. Let the vice admiral drive one of the rudder warships into the city first. As soon as he entered the city, Jiang Qin heard someone in the city shouting: "Archers prepare, release arrows!" ”

Hearing someone commanding, Jiang Qin's heart sank. At this time, a walker rushed out in front and reported to Jiang Qinyu: "General, the enemy has soldiers on both sides of the river bank to release arrows, the enemy army is all barbarians, and there are quite a few of them, ask the general for support!" ”

Jiang Qin heard this, and his heart was happy. Jiang Qin was very clear about the situation in Nanchang City, if the enemy army had ambushes. It is certainly not only on both sides of the riverbank, but also on the roofs of the houses on both sides of the riverbank, so as to achieve the purpose of suppression.

And those rooftops can't hide people, at a glance, now that he can hear the soldiers' reports, Jiang Qin knows that the enemy commander must have thought that there is a wire to block the water gate, and he can sleep peacefully. And after hearing the return of the soldiers, the other party was a barbarian, Jiang Qin's heart was even more relaxed, and he sneered in his heart: "The barbarians of Shanyue, attack my city three or four times, and wait for Ben to teach you a good lesson!" Thinking about it, Jiang Qin shouted: "Drumming! , the whole army enters the city! ”

"Knock knock,"

The agitated war drums sounded wildly, and the Yu warships brought by Jiang Qin rushed into Nanchang City one after another, and Jiang Qin's battleship was the fourth to enter.

When Jiang Qin's warship entered Nanchang City, he finally understood why he had to ask for reinforcements. I saw that there were barbarians on both sides of the river, holding horned bows and firing arrows at the warships. It's just that the range of the horn bow is not far, and many of the arrows shot fall into the water, but there are many people, so Jiang Qin's side was suppressed.

Seeing this, Jiang Qin laughed and said, "Stupid! "After saying that, he took the bow in his hand, mounted the arrow, and shot it to the shore!

"Right..."

Jiang Qin's sharp arrow fell into one of the barbarians on the shore. I only heard a soft "snap", and the powerful arrow was unexpectedly swept away by the leather armor on this barbarian's body!

At this moment, Jiang Qin's head was stunned for a moment, and then he was surprised: "Leather armor? After saying that, his eyes swept over the barbarians on the shore, and now every barbarian was wearing leather armor. Seeing this, Jiang Qin lost his voice and said, "That's not right! These are not Shanyue people. Where did they get so much leather armor! ”

Just when Jiang Qin reacted, he smelled a pungent smell in his nose. Jiang Qin muttered to himself, "What kind of smell is this." ”

Suddenly, a military vehicle next to Jiang Qin exclaimed, "General! It's the smell of fire oil! After saying that, he ventured his head out of the side of the ship, looked through the moonlight, and then immediately returned to the ship, and said hurriedly: "General, it's not good! The water is full of oil! ”

Jiang Qin heard this, and said in a lost voice: "How can this be!" ”

Before Jiang Qin finished speaking, he saw countless soldiers rushing out of the rooftops on both sides. I saw a young general go up to the roof, holding a big bow in his hand, and then lit a sharp arrow soaked in fire oil, aimed at a wooden plank above the river, and shouted: "Listen to the people of Jiangdong, a certain Donglai Taishi Xiang has been ordered to burn your warship!" After finishing speaking, the rocket clasped in his hand "whew" and flew out and hit the river!

Before this sharp arrow fell into the river, two young generals on the opposite bank shouted: "Look at Ma Qiupang will shoot magically!" ”

As soon as the words fell, two rockets flew out, and three rockets fell one after another on the surface of the river covered with oil. "Mou. The entire river was set on fire at once.

Seeing this, Jiang Qin was surprised: "How can it be possible to set the river on fire?" ”

At this time, a soldier hurriedly said: "General, it is not the river that is ignited, but the debris on the river that is ignited!" ”

Jiang Qin heard this, and hurriedly stretched out his head to look down. I don't know when, the surroundings of his rudder battleship were covered with flammable materials such as wooden planks, and by the night, Jiang Qin also saw that there was a large cloud of sulfur on these wooden boards.

After the three young generals finished releasing the arrows, the soldiers on the roofs on both sides of the bank drew their bows and waited. When Jiang Qin was panicking, he suddenly saw the flames rushing to the sky behind him, Jiang Qin looked back hurriedly, but saw that one battleship was ignited!

Jiang Qin's eyes were sharp, but when he turned around, he saw several small boats approaching his addiction ship on the shore. After Jiang Qin saw it, he didn't understand it, and said hatefully: "Damn, it's all a suspicious plan, these are the real guys!" ”

Whether it is the fire oil floating on the water, or the wooden planks and other objects, or Tai Shixiang, Ma Qiu, and Pang Hui and they put rockets on the debris on the river, all of them are suspicious tactics. What really wants to burn Jiang Qin's warship is actually the fireboat that is being released now. In fact, only a ship can burn a ship. It's just a series of suspicious tactics, but they made the soldiers of the Jiangdong Navy dizzy, not only them, but even Jiang Qin was bypassed.

Although Jiang Qin regretted his carelessness, it was useless to regret it at this time. Seeing this, Jiang Qin calmed down, and then shouted: "Don't panic! Go out and stop the enemy from burning the ship! Paddle in the opposite direction and get out of town in no time! ”

After hearing this, an adjutant general hurriedly said: "General, there is a ship behind that has been burned, blocking the river." And the south water gate only allows one carp to pass through, how can I get out? ”

Jiang Qin heard this, and said in a condensed voice: "Don't panic, just stop the enemy's fireboats." The enemy will not be able to break through our ships. Moreover, Cheng Yuan is still outside the city, and his army will definitely be able to go out if he responds to him! ”
