Chapter 163: Left Dragon and Right Tiger (II)
Cao Zhen's battle with Gan Ning was crazy, and he used all his strength with every blow.
The sword qi and the sword qi were criss-crossed, leaving a three-zhang no-man's land vacant around the place where they were fighting.
They didn't use their combat skills, they just fought in the most primitive way. This kind of battle, for a battle maniac like them, is the best release, and it is also the best way to prove that they have strong combat effectiveness.
The battle on this side made the army facing on the other side a little restless.
"General, the war has started on General Gan's side, will we also attack the other side?" The adjutant general clasped his hands into fists and asked Tai Shici for battle.
"Nope! Wait! If the enemy doesn't move, I won't move, I want them to move first. In the current war, we not only have the upper hand, but also have the initiative. If we make a choice easily, our advantages will be flawed in a short period of time. It's not what I want to see. ”
"The general has a point, but what if the other side thinks the same as us?" The deputy general has followed Tai Shici for more than ten years and understands his temperament, so there is no need to have scruples when he is outspoken.
"Don't worry, Wen Yuan doesn't want to move, but Cao Zhi will let him move." Tai Shi Ci replied with certainty.
As soon as his voice fell, Cao Zhi said nervously to Yang Xiu: "Zude, the second brother's side has already begun." Isn't it wrong for us to stop here all the time? In the eyes of my father, will this become our timidity? ”
"No, it won't. The prime minister is familiar with the art of war and will understand our approach. Now that we have handed over the command to General Zhang, we must have unreserved trust in him.
If we give him the order to attack now, he will obey on the surface, but in his heart he will have a detached thought about us, and he will gradually distance himself from us in the future. ”
"Zude, I admit that General Zhang is brave and good at fighting, and he is a good general. But now it's a water war, maybe he's not good at it? ”
Cao Zhi's words made Yang Xiu's heart feel cold. I've talked about it, why is he still thinking about attacking? Didn't he listen to what he said to him?
General Zhang Liao understands water warfare or not, and he does not know. But just because he could stand on the bow of the ship at such a great risk, he dared to conclude that he had confidence in this battle.
"Childe! Compared with the prime minister, you are not far behind! Yang Xiu secretly sighed in his heart.
"Zud, why don't you speak? Are you thinking of giving orders to General Zhang in what tone? "Cao Zhi doesn't have the ability to see through people's hearts, so he can only think from the position of what he cares about most at the moment.
"Returning to the child, even if it is! Please wait, Childe, I'll come when I go! Yang Xiu bowed to Cao Zhi and walked towards the edge of the boat.
With a "bang", a small boat was lowered into the water by the soldiers.
Yang Xiu climbed down from the warship, and alone, rowed the boat, rowing towards the warship where Zhang Liao was.
A quarter of an hour later, Yang Xiu boarded Zhang Liao's warship. He walked quickly, came to Zhang Liao, leaned over and bowed, "I've seen General Zhang." ”
"Yang Xiu, you don't stay at Gongzi's, what are you doing here with me? Well? Did Childe want me to attack? Zhang Liao frowned, and in a blink of an eye, he thought of Yang Xiu's intention.
"General Zhang Mingjian, Gongzi does have this intention. But what I want to say is that there will be no exemption from the foreign monarch's decree. Now that you are the general of the army on the right, when will this battle be fought? How to fight? It's up to you. ”
"Yang Xiu, I have heard the prime minister praise you in the past. When I saw it today, I felt that the Prime Minister's praise was not too much at all. It is a blessing for him to have you by his side to assist the third son.
It's okay to attack, but we can't fight them in the river, we have to rush to the opposite bank, disembark as fast as we can, and deal with them on land. You know what I mean? ”
"Understood! I'll go back and get my son ready. Yang Xiu saluted, and then returned to Cao Zhina as fast as he could.
Half an hour later, the army on the right led by Cao Zhi suddenly accelerated and launched a fierce charge against the enemy on the opposite side.
"It's coming!" Tai Shi Ci's expression, which had not been touched for a long time, showed a smile at this moment.
"General, please give the order, we will definitely beat them back!" The lieutenant general couldn't have been more excited to see them move.
"Order, stabilize the battleship, avoid being impacted, and avoid it reasonably. When they are gone, it's time for us to launch a general attack. ”
"No!" The lieutenant ran over to the herald with a roar. For hot-blooded soldiers, it is a happy thing to be able to fight a vigorous battle.
The attacking army led by Cao Zhi advanced in an awl shape. When Zhang Liao saw that Tai Shici's ships began to take the initiative to avoid his fleet, he laughed heartily, thinking that this was a God-sent opportunity.
The sound of the water ringing in everyone's ears. Ships that are close enough to make them even see their own faces.
"That's not right! The attack was just a false shot, Wen Yuan's real purpose was to go ashore! Hurry up and release the arrows! Tai Shici suddenly shuddered and yelled at the lieutenant general.
However, by the time their bows and arrows were fired at Cao's battleship, Cao's battleship had already sailed out of range that the arrows could reach.
By the time Tai Shici's fleet turned around and began to desperately catch up, Cao Jun's warships were about to dock.
"Governor Dadu, it's not good, the army on the right led by Cao Zhi has broken through the Taishi Ci defense line and reached the opposite bank." Lu Su shouted with an indignant face.
"Zijing, don't worry. I believe in the power of Ziyi. What we need to focus on now is the battle between Cao Pi and Gan Ning, and their affairs can be put aside for now. Don't forget, on the shore, there are also elites led by Cheng Pu and Ling Tong. ”
"It's also said that with the two of them here, maybe Cao Zhi can be captured alive. Once Cao Zhi becomes our prisoner, I think the Battle of Tianjiang can also be declared over. ”
"I hope so! It's just that if it ends so easily, Cao Cao is not Cao Cao. ”
On the other side, Dian Wei excitedly shouted to Cao Cao: "Lord, look at it!" Cao Zhi Gongzi led the army to the other side! Hahaha..., it would be nice if they could move forward and enter Yangzhou City. ”
"Hey! I'm afraid this is not Zijian's idea! Wen Yuan's tactics are good, but once they go ashore, it will be rootless water. There is Tai Shici's army in the back, and there is Zhou Yu's army in front. Under the attack from both sides, it is difficult to gain a foothold! ”
"My lord, please give orders! The last general is willing to lead a team of men and horses to meet the three princes. Dian Wei clenched his fists and asked Cao Cao for his life.
"Do you know how to swim? Can you fight in the water? Cao Cao glanced at Dian Wei, turned to Ouyang and walked over with a smile.
