Chapter 166: Ambush Huo Jun
Fujiao Mountain, Jiangdong Army Water Village.
In the big tent, Zhou Yu was discussing with the generals the situation of Liu Bei's army's march on the south side of Taihu Lake.
"Report, urgent military situation!"
The scout trotted into the account and announced: "Governor Qiyu, Governor Cheng sent a military report, Liu Bei led the army from Youquan to Songjiang, it seems that he wants to cross the river from Songshui, and the soldiers are directed at Wu County. ”
Wu County is in danger, in the west of the Taihu Lake, in the south of the Songjiang River. Therefore, Sun Quan ordered Zhou Yu to lead the water division to Tun Taihu Lake, and ordered Cheng Pujun to Tun Songjiang. Liu Bei marched to Songjiang from the south, and once the Songjiang River was crossed, with the combat effectiveness of Liu Bei's soldiers, Wu County would be in danger.
"Isn't Liu Bei afraid of our water army?"
Jiang Qin focused his eyes on the Songjiang River in Yutu, and said incomprehensibly: "Our army's naval division crossed Dongshan Island, entered the Songjiang River, cut off its grain route, and Liu Bei will destroy the whole army!" ”
Zhou Yu raised his handsome eyebrows, shook his head and said: "Liu Bei's move is abnormal, I expected Huo Jun to cooperate with the water division to protect the flank of Liu Bei's army." ”
Jiang Qin hurriedly asked, "Is there any change in the Jingzhou Water Division?" ”
"No change!" The scout said, "Just send fast horses to explore the waters of Dongshan. ”
"Higashiyama Waters!"
Zhou Yu's gaze moved between Songjiang and Dongshan, his eyes narrowed slightly, he seemed to already know what Huo Jun's plan was.
Of course, not only Zhou Yu knew, but the generals who were familiar with the waters of Taihu Lake also captured Huo Jun's thoughts.
Chen Wu's expression changed slightly, pointed to the waters of Dongshan on the map, and said: "If our army wants to reach Songjiang, we need to pass through Dongshan Island. If Huo Jun camped in the waters of Dongshan Island, he would be able to block our army's entry into the Songjiang main road. At that time, Liu Bei can cross the Songjiang River without worries. ”
Dongshan Island of Taihu Lake is surrounded by water on three sides. There is a river beach in the east that connects with the shore, the north faces the west mountain, and the south side is separated from the lake bank for more than ten miles. The whole water area forms the shape of a gourd mouth, the entrance is a narrow passage formed by the mountain and the lake shore for several miles, and entering the gourd mouth is a vast river channel.
Continuing to go deeper, the river shrinks again, forming a closed loop, with only Songshui as an outlet. Therefore, if Huo Jun led the sailors to block the entrance of the Dongshan waters, the Jiangdong sailors would not be able to enter the Songjiang River and the surrounding lakes, and Liu Bei could go deep into Wu County to fight without worries.
Chen Wu suddenly realized and said: "Huo Jun expected that the water division would be defeated by our army, so he turned to defend without fighting, and wanted to protect Liu Bei's flank and let his troops enter Wu County. ”
After a pause, Chen Wu said: "Governor, our army has moved to Dongshan and set up a village here in advance, don't let Huo Jun set up a village here, otherwise our army will give up all its previous achievements!" ”
Zhou Yu pondered a little and said with a smile: "If Huo Jun wants to move to Dongshan, let him move!" ”
"Governor?"
"Huo Jun is not a scheming person, our army moved to Dongshan, and the strength was divided into two, how could he sit idly by. If I am him, he will lead the water division to attack Fujiaoshui Village, and then the battalion will be lost, the troops will be damaged, and our army will be in danger! Zhou Yu said.
As he spoke, Zhou Yu picked up the vermilion and marked it a few times on the map, and the way he thought of breaking the game appeared on the map.
I saw Zhou Yu mark Huo Jun's march route from Qiucheng Water Village to Dongshan, and at the same time there was an arrow from Xishan Water Village to Dongshan Water, which seemed to have the momentum of cutting the Jingzhou Water Division in half.
Zhou Yu's intention was obvious, that is, to let Huo Jun's naval division warships go to the Dongshan waters first, and then he led the naval division's warships to kill and annihilate the Jingzhou naval division in the Dongshan waters.
"Order someone to investigate the information of the Jingzhou Navy Division day and night, and if there is any change in the Jingzhou Navy Division, report it immediately."
Zhou Yu slammed his fist on the map, and said in a deep voice: "This battle will definitely destroy the Jingzhou Navy!" ”
"No!"
……
At dawn the next day, the attendant woke up Zhou Yu from his sleep with an emergency military situation.
"Governor, there's an urgent order from the front-line scouts."
"Say it quickly!"
"There was a change in Jingzhou Water Village, the baggage was carried onto the boat, and the boat was pulled out in the night, as if it was going to the southeast." The scout said.
Zhou Yu, who sobered himself up with cold water, laughed violently and said: "Huo Junguo is as Yu expected, he will take advantage of the night when our army is slacking off, and lead the water division to the Dongshan Valley. ”
In the excitement, Zhou Yu's arm knocked over the copper basin, and the copper basin rolled on the ground, and the cold water in the basin splashed him all over and wet the ground.
Zhou Yu couldn't take care of so much, walked around the wet ground with his bare feet, walked out of the camp tent, and shouted loudly: "The fighter plane has arrived, give orders to the generals, and the whole army will be mobilized." ”
"No!"
"Gongjin, what's wrong?" Lu Su lifted the curtain with sleepy eyes and asked curiously.
Zhou Yu smiled, even happier than when he was the first time he was appointed as the Central Protector, grabbed Lu Su's arm with both hands, and said with a smile: "Huo Jun showed his flaws and was caught by me." In tomorrow's battle, we will be able to win and break the enemy. defeated Huo Junshuishi, Liu Bei was defeated without a fight, and the crisis would disappear. ”
Lu Su looked at Zhou Yu, who was already in an extremely happy mood, and asked seriously: "Gong Jin, could this be Huo Jun's strategy to lure the enemy?" ”
"Zijing is too worried!"
Zhou Yu waved his hand and said with a smile: "In the water battle of Huo Jun, because the ship is small, it is impossible to win the battle because it is inferior to the big ship of our army. Therefore, he moved to Dongshan Shan Zhai to protect Liu Bei's flanks so that he could cross the Songjiang River smoothly. Yu led the sailor to arrive, and when Huo Jun's sailor arrived in the waters of Dongshan, he would take the opportunity to attack it and completely annihilate the enemy's Kou sailor. ”
Qiucheng Jingzhou Water Village to Dongshan waters, about 90 miles; From the east water village of the Fujiao Mountain River to the waters of the East Mountain, there are about more than 40 miles.
In Zhou Yu's eyes, he will plan and then act, Huo Jun will send troops first, and then he will send troops to attack him, what is the danger in it? Unless Huo Jun can pull out more big ships than him, Huo Jun will inevitably be caught and defeated by him.
Lu Su looked at the confident Zhou Yu and didn't know what to say, Zhou Yu was much better than him in terms of military strategy, but he was worried that Zhou Yu's eager mood would affect his rational judgment.
"Zi Jing is in the camp, waiting for Yu to return victorious."
Zhou Yu didn't care about chatting with Lu Su, entered the camp to change into armor, tied a sword, and looked like a beautiful Zhou Lang, and then strode out of the camp and commanded the sailor sergeant.
Lu Su looked at Zhou Yu's distant figure, and then listened to the sound of the snare drums in the barracks, and suddenly fell asleep. Looking up to the east, there was already a glimmer of light in the sky, dispelling the edge of the night, and the gulls and herons spread their wings and flew high, singing nine highs.
The sky is about to dawn, I don't know if it will be Liu Bei's tomorrow, or the shady curtain to disperse Sun Quan. The land on the left side of the river, but I don't know where to go?
Zhou Yu, Huo Jun, which is stronger and which is weak, you can also know tomorrow!
……
In the summer, the sky dawns very early.
The Jingzhou Naval Division, which set out in the early morning, was already approaching the waters of Dongshan, and the fleet was divided into two small divisions, each of which traveled in a triangle. Huo Jun's flagship is in the center, the bucket boats are clustered around the left and right, and then the small boats are cruising on the periphery. In addition to most of Huo Jun's department, the other part is Gan Ning's department, compared with Huo Jun's ships, the proportion of large ships under Gan Ning's account is higher, in addition to the Gan Ning warship, there are two warships around, and there are ten fighting boats.
The ships under Zhou Yu's command were ambushed on the north side of Dongshan, scouts looked at the mountain, and passed information down from time to time.
"Governor, Huo Junshui has entered the waters of Dongshan. Jiang Zhonglang asked if he would attack? ”
Zhou Yu sat firmly on the big ship and said, "Don't worry, fighting at this time will scare off Huo Jun's sailors." ”
"Order the scouts to carefully explore the surroundings and watch how many warships Huo Jun has on the soldiers?"
"No!"
After half a ring, the scout came again and asked, "Huo Jun has thirty or forty large ships and more than 100 small boats, and the water village warships have been exhausted." ”
Zhou Yu paced on the deck and asked, "How is Huo Jun's sailor moving?" ”
"Governor, now the Jingzhou Sailor has arrived at the Qixi Pavilion." The scout replied.
The Seven Creek Pavilion is on the shore of the lake, and the surrounding harbor is excellent, which is convenient for boats to moor. It also looks out with Dongshan Island, forming a narrow water area several miles wide, and all boats that want to enter the Songjiang River need to pass here.
"Do you have the idea of anchoring and camping?" Zhou Yu asked anxiously.
"Yes!"
The scout said, "The enemy is gradually approaching the shore, and it seems that they have the idea of going ashore and camping. And the scouts are coming towards our army, and the big ships in the rear are on guard all around. ”
"Good!"
"Good!"
Zhou Yu patted the wall of the boat, overjoyed, and said a few good things.
With a sonorous sound, Zhou Yu pulled out the sword at his waist and shouted angrily: "Someone is beating the drum, and the generals are ordered to attack the Jingzhou Navy Division and take Huo Jun's flagship directly." ”
"No!"
Meng Feng, a subordinate official, was puzzled and asked: "Governor, why don't you take advantage of the enemy's encampment ashore to raid and kill him, defeat his army, and seize his ship." ”
Zhou Yu looked at the floating boat and said with a smile: "If it is camped, the ship is docked, and the anchor is put on the rope, it will be difficult for our army to seize its ship." And Liu Bei's army is not far from the shore, if Liu Bei's troops arrive, the ship is fixed on the shore, and the two armies board the ship to fight, which is not conducive to the length of our army. ”
Zhou Yu saw it thoroughly, the boat was fixed to the shore, and in the absence of wind and waves, those sergeants who were good at foot combat carried out the battle to seize the boat, and it was difficult to tell the victory. It is better to lead the sailors to kill the big ship when they are about to set up camp, the sailors are slacking, and the fleet is chaotic, and they will directly take Huo Jun's flagship.
"Boom!"
After the east mountain, the drum sound was shocking, and the birds resting on the east mountain flew in a panic.
First there was a white sailboat, then two white sailboats, and then dozens of white sailboats came out into the wind. The oars broke the waves, the flag rolled, the momentum was huge, intimidating, and they went directly to the Jingzhou ship on the shore of Qixiting Lake.
"Enemy attack!"
On the boat, the Jingzhou sailors saw the enemy ship in Jiangdong and sounded the military horn of the early warning. The Jingzhou Navy Division seemed to be at a loss in the face of the sudden appearance of the Jiangdong Water Division, and hurriedly adjusted the formation.
At this time, looking down from the sky, I saw that the Jingzhou fleet was in a 'one' arrangement, and the Jiangdong Sailor was in a '1' kill, vaguely forming a 'Ding' shape, and Zhou Yu seemed to want to cut the Jingzhou Sailor in half.
