Chapter 698: Lang Rush
"Jiangling, Wuling, and Changsha are just bait, confusing the public, relying on them to overturn the Huan family, the decisive place is in Xiangyang, only the elite of Heiyun go south, can capture Jingzhou." Yang looked at the towering Xiangyang City Wall Road.
"This change is sudden, with the strength of Fancheng and Xincheng, I am afraid that it will be difficult to break through Xiangyang, and Huan Huo has always been calm." Zhang Zhu'er behind him said.
"Under normal circumstances, it is true that Xiangyang cannot be attacked, but if the inside and outside should be combined, things will be easy to do."
"Li Bohu hasn't replied to us, has he changed his mind? Why don't I sneak into the city with a few brothers and kill him? Zhang Zhu'er held the knife soldier in his hand, and his face was calm, as if killing people was as simple as eating and drinking.
"He doesn't have the courage, now the hearts of the people of Jingxiang are towards me, this is the general trend, if he doesn't make a move, there will be others who will defect." Yang Luo has been dormant for many years, and he has long figured out everything here.
It is even possible that he knows the thoughts of the people better than Huan Wen.
In his early years, Huan Wen also observed the suffering of the people, but after holding power in the past few years, his eyes were staring at it, and it was difficult to look at the people below.
"Your Majesty wants to separate the ministries of the country, and it seems that you want to go to Mobei again, and those little cubs in the school office can't afford to carry the beams."
"Mobei is much easier than Jingxiang, with these two credits, it is enough in this life." Yang slightly looked forward to it.
"So what are you waiting for? Tell the brothers in the city to get started! "Zhang Zhu'er has an anxious temperament and is a good hand at killing people and setting fires, but rebelling is a delicate job.
"The time has not come, you also said that the troops of Fancheng and Xincheng are not enough, even if they reluctantly capture Xiangyang, they will definitely face Huan Wen's sworn counterattack, so ......"
"So you need an army of the imperial court?" Zhang Zhu'er has followed Yang Luo for so many years and has grown a lot.
"Yes, this battle is not in Xiangyang itself, but to see if the army in Luoyang can dare to come to Xiangyang City before Huan Wen returns!"
While he was talking, dozens of Jin cavalry came from far and near.
Zhang Zhu'er was very vigilant, and habitually pressed the handle of the knife with his hand.
Yang Luo picked up the grass roots on the ground and stuffed them into his mouth, looking unkempt, he was a scoundrel, "Relax, don't be nervous, it's really for us, it's not this kind of people." ”
Zhang Zhu'er's hand was released from the hilt.
The cavalry rushed to the front fiercely, and the leading officer glanced at the two, "The Liang thief is coming, General Huan is strong and clear, you must return to the city as soon as possible, and you must not wander outside." ”
"Okay." Yang Luo opened his mouth to be an authentic Jingzhou dialect, with a hippie smile and a frivolous face.
The officer's doubts were gone, and he rode his horse to Xiangyang.
Yang Luo looked at their backs, "If you don't enter the tiger's den, you can get the tiger, for the sake of prudence, let's come in person, today's Xiangyang is terrible, and it is related to the general trend of the unification of the world." ”
"Okay." Zhang Zhu'er didn't care.
The two mixed among the homeless people and walked towards Xiangyang City together.
And at this moment, above the Han River, the flames are monstrous.
Rafts and bamboo rafts turned into fireballs, down the river, and crashed into the Jiangdong naval army.
However, the ships and fighting ships of the Jiangdong Navy were covered with raw cowhides, and they could not be lit at all for a while, and the sailors on the ship kept watering to extinguish the fire.
"Put!" Li You swung his knife at Xiangyang City.
Behind him, thunderbolts and catapults frantically threw and smashed stone oil cans into the Jiangdong naval army.
However, the fireworks on the river are monstrous, and the Jin army and navy are marching against the south bank, and the hit rate of the thunderbolt and catapult is not high, even if one or two shots are hit, about 20 catties of stones cannot completely destroy a warship.
In an instant, the river seemed to be boiling, splashing and mingling in the fire.
"It's not enough, these things can't deal with them, I'll take someone to pick up the side and fight." Meng Kuan was carrying a long lance, and the fierce battlefield had already made his blood boil.
The Jiangdong Navy was superior to the Liang Navy in terms of both warships and soldiers.
The center of gravity of the Liang navy was on the east of the river and the East China Sea.
"No one is allowed to go into the water without a military order." Li You said lightly.
After all, he is a child of the royal family, and he has been with the emperor since he was a child, and now he has been crowned King Qin, and his momentum is self-contained.
Qin Biao's punishment of Meng Kuan was actually a reminder to Li You.
No matter how intimate the relationship is, it cannot exceed the courtesy of the monarch and the minister, and it is extremely dangerous to be unable to control the subordinate king.
The two looked at each other, Li You looked calm, Meng Kuan lowered his head, "Only ......"
The order to launch the water to engage in battle was delayed, and once the Jin army broke through the blockade of the fireships, this attack on Xiangyang would fall short again.
Even Hanshui can't break through, let alone conquer Xiangyang.
At this moment, the flag of the west was rolled, and the soldiers and people shouted, "The flood is coming!" ”
Immediately afterwards, there was a roar from the upstream, and the Han River suddenly surged, and a huge wave slapped directly from the upstream, like a giant beast with a bloody mouth open, swallowing the boat on the water in one gulp.
On the spot, more than 30 Jiangdong warships capsized, and other warships were also washed downstream by the flood.
"Wan Sheng!" The North Shore cheered and the sky shook.
"General Qin is worthy of the country's general!" Li You exclaimed.
At that time, Guan Yu also flooded Cao Wei's Seventh Army near here, captured alive and banned, and shocked China.
The upper reaches of the Han River were in the hands of the Liang army, so it is not surprising that the water attack was only to confuse the Jiangdong water army.
But the water comes and goes as fast as it comes.
An hour later, the current calmed down again, and the Jin warship, which had been washed downstream, re-stabilized, docked on the shore, and did a short rest.
The embankment built by Xincheng County can only achieve this effect, and it is not a rainy season when the water rises.
Knock, knock, knock......
The drums of war sounded again in Fancheng.
The people in the rear dragged nearly a thousand rafts.
"Cross the river!" More than 100 heralds galloped on horseback against the north shore and shouted loudly.
"Crossing the river" The Black Cloud Army let out a wild roar and rushed to the south bank on the raft.
On the city of Xiangyang, the Jin army's artillery and crossbow arrows rained down on the river, setting off waves of blood.
Although Huan Wen is gone, Huan Huo is still there, and the elite of the Jin army is also there.
Li You found a raft and was about to enter the water, but was stopped by Meng Kuan, "You are now the King of Qin, it is different from the past, I will just go for this kind of thing, I have good water and better luck!" ”
Although he is rebellious, he is also a cheerful person, and he does not hold a grudge or alienate Li You because of this.
The two are already a lifelong friendship.
"Tiger Head ......" Li You called out Meng Kuan's nickname.
Meng Kuan stepped on the raft with one foot and arched his hand very seriously, "His Royal Highness King Qin, the last general will go!" ”
With that, he turned his back and rushed to the south bank with the rest of the raft.
Li You kept looking at the raft, carrying and floating in the Han water.
The Jin army's artillery and crossbow arrows became more and more dense, and there were cavalry patrols on the south bank, so even if the Black Cloud Army successfully crossed the Han River, it could not escape their spears.
Meng Kuan's raft gradually became smaller in the Han River, and it was about to cross the center of the river, when a cannon stone smashed accurately on the raft, setting off a wave of blood, and the raft was torn apart, and the people who were not killed on it were also swallowed by the Han River.
"Tiger Head!" Li You shouted anxiously at Hanshui......
