At the end of spring and February, the 100,000-strong allied army of the princes led by Wu continued to march westward after a brief rest in Baiju, preparing to pass through the extremely extensive Yunmengze, smash Huanglong, and take the capital of Chu in one fell swoop.

It's a pity that Shen Zhuliang has long seen this strategic intention of Wu Guo.

Therefore, he did not place the battlefield near Yingdu, but concentrated his forces and took the lead in building water villages in various waterways in Yunmengze.

What is Yunmengze?

Yunmengze, also known as Yunmeng Daze, is a special hunting place for the kings of Chu in the past dynasties, and the area is quite broad.

Among them, there are various geographical forms such as mountains and forests, rivers and rivers, and there is a lake called "Unmengzawa".

Yunmengze got its name from "Yunmeng", and the two do not refer to the same concept.

Because "dream" means "lake" in the Chu dialect, and "漭", due to the sediment deposition of the river, Yunmengze is divided into two parts, north and south, the north of the river becomes a swamp area, and the south of the river still maintains a vast water surface.

The Jianghan Plain is low-lying with criss-crossing rivers and lakes, and the Jingjiang River, known as the "Nine Curved Ileums", runs through it, constituting a typical land delta landscape.

During the period of the earth's crust decline, huge depressions were formed, and large lakes were formed by the accumulation of river water.

At this time, the armies of Wu and Chu were engaged in a difficult war in Yunmengze.

"Kill!"

"Shoot the arrows!"

Up and down the water village, there are people dying every moment.

The officers and soldiers of the Chu army, wearing yellow-colored battle clothes, all stood on top of the water wall, stretched out their bows and arrows, and shot one enemy soldier after another.

On the vast surface of the river, the warships of the coalition army rushed towards the water village.

Wu's warships were not only large in size, but also fast enough.

"Put!"

"Snatch and snatch!"

On the deck of each warship, bed crossbows were placed one after another, and crossbow arrows were ruthlessly radiated towards the water wall opposite.

There are even some warships that are directly equipped with trebuchets, and in an instant, hundreds of stone bullets are thrown in the direction of the water village.

"Boom!"

"Kachatsa ......"

The water village made of wood and bamboo poles is somewhat vulnerable.

Under the chaos of rocks piercing through the air, they all fell apart one after another, and were bombarded out of one big hole after another.

There were some unlucky soldiers of the Chu army, and they were even directly smashed into meat cakes by stone bullets, and they fell to death in anger.

However, in the face of such a fierce attack by the enemy, the soldiers of the Chu army who were responsible for guarding the water village were fearless.

No matter how afraid they are of death, they can only endure the fear in their hearts and fight the enemy hard.

When the warships of the coalition army leaned on the edge of the water village, the soldiers of the coalition army on the warship all set up ladders and climbed towards the top of the water village.

At this time, the Chu army began a formal counterattack.

"Rest and Rest ......"

Wave after wave of random arrows flew down, and the unguarded coalition soldiers were hit by arrows one after another, and they were shot into a hornet's nest.

"Ahh

The mournful wails like killing pigs were endless.

I saw that a Wu sergeant had already held a shield to block more than a dozen arrows shot down by the enemy on the water village, and was about to climb the cloud ladder, but unexpectedly a stone was suddenly thrown down from the top of the water village.

Wu Zu, who was caught off guard, was suddenly smashed down and fell into the boiling river.

Fortunately, the current is not turbulent, and falling into the river does not necessarily mean death.

However, the resistance of the Chu army was very fierce.

The hole in the water village, which was originally broken by the trebuchet of the Wu army, was also filled by the Chu soldiers in the water village with some sundries, making it difficult for the soldiers of the coalition army to break through.

A large number of soldiers of the coalition army were bleeding from their heads under the water village, and they suffered heavy casualties.

The Chu people have a strong personality and good combat power, especially under the stimulation of this kind of patriotic war, they are all like fighting chicken blood, fighting bravely to kill the enemy.

They have no way back.

Behind them, standing are countless sons and daughters of the Chu State, their relatives and friends, and their neighbors!

"Wu dog! Die! ”

A Chu soldier was pierced through the heart by a spear, spitting blood from his mouth, but he had not yet swallowed his breath, his eyes were still red, and he stubbornly hugged the enemy and fell to the bottom of the water village together.

At this time, the Chu people are undoubtedly very bloody!

Under the mobilization of Shen Zhuliang, the water village of the Chu army is not only on the waterway, but also has a camp on the land, waiting for the coalition army to break through.

In order to avoid a sneak attack on the grain road, the Wu army had to choose to break through its water village camp one by one.

Even if you pay the price of casualties, you will not hesitate!

On top of the flagship, Qingji held the Longyuan Sword at his waist with one hand, raised his eyes and looked around, looking at such a tragic battle, his face was quite solemn.

He knew it wasn't going to be easy.

Therefore, I have long been mentally prepared to pay a great price.

In this battle, the person Qingji hated most in his heart was not Shen Zhuliang, but Bai Gongsheng who stood on the side.

Why?

Because Bai Gongsheng killed the original Ling Yin Nangwa of the Chu State!

Who is Nangwa?

He's a wine bag and a rice bag, but he can't stand up to the high power.

In the battle of Baiju in history, Wu was able to win more with less and achieve such brilliant results, and Nangwa can be said to have made great contributions in this.

At that time, Wu, Cai, and Tang formed a coalition army, and Shuo Huaishui continued to advance westward and arrived at Huaiwei.

Sun Wu suddenly decided to land in a boat and changed from west to south.

Sun Wu selected 3,500 elite soldiers as the vanguard, and quickly passed through the three dangerous passes of the Great Tunnel, Zhiyuan, and Hades in northern Chu, and went straight to the Han River, and went deep into the hinterland of Chu.

Within a few days, it advanced to the east bank of the Han River and achieved a strategic surprise attack on Chu.

When the Wu army suddenly appeared on the east bank of the Han River, King Zhao of Chu panicked and hurriedly sent Yin Nangwa, Zuo Sima Shen Yin Xu, and Dafu Shi Huang to pour all the country's forces and rush to the west bank of the Han River to confront the Wu army.

Zuo Sima Shen Yin Shu saw that the forces scattered throughout the Chu State had not yet been assembled, and it was easy to be broken by the Wu army, and it was difficult to prevent the Wu army from breaking through the defenses of Hanshui.

In view of the weakness of the Wu army, which was alone and did not occupy advantages, he advocated giving full play to the advantages of the large number of soldiers of the Chu State and changing the passive to the active.

He suggested to Ling Yin Nangwa: Nangwa should lead the main force of the Chu army to fortify along the west bank of the Han River.

And he himself led part of his troops north to the city, detoured to the flank of the Wu army, destroyed its warships, and cut off its way back.

After that, the main forces of Shen Yin Shu and Nangwa carried out front and back attacks, eliminating the Wu army in one fell swoop.

This strategy, in essence, is not a problem.

If Nangwa really followed Shen Yinshu's strategy, maybe Sun Wu would be planted!

However, Nangwa was worried that Shen Yinshu's credit after the battle would be above himself and threaten his position as Lingyin, so he changed the plan agreed with Shen Yinxu to attack the Wu army without authorization, and led the army to cross the Han River to attack the Wu army without waiting for Shen Yinxu's army to arrive.

Seeing that the Chu army took the initiative to attack, the monarchs and ministers of Wu took the initiative to retreat and exhaust the enemy and seek an opportunity to fight a decisive battle, and took the initiative to retreat from the east bank of the Han River.

In the bag, the army is in pursuit.

The Wu army waited for work at ease, and faced the Chu army between Xiaobie Mountain and Dabie Mountain, and won three battles and three victories.

After Nangwa, he regrouped in Baiju and prepared to fight again, but after all, he could not defeat the Chu army, was defeated, and fled to Zheng by himself......

As the saying goes, if you are not afraid of god-like opponents, you are afraid of pig-like teammates!

Qingji pondered, if his opponent was a commodity like Nangwa, rather than a famous general like Shen Zhuliang, maybe he would have been able to drive straight into the city of Yingdu long ago, and the army would have arrived at the city of Yingdu!
