Lu Kou suddenly, Huo Yi instantly grasped the initiative.

At this time, Lu Xun was ordered to lead his troops down the river to the east to fight for the lost Baqiu City.

On Dongting Lake, Wuling engaged in Fan Ling stood tall at the head of the city, staring closely at the Wu people in the lake, and the warships were lined up, and the array of warships was also quite orderly.

The building ships and the fighting ships were connected, interspersed with many small boats, forming a very tight iron barrel array, and then the front ships lined up in a row to form an assault momentum.

"It's... The commander of the Wu army knows quite well the tactics of the sailors, and the attack and defense are integrated, and there is no flaw at all. ”

After glancing, Fan Ling's brows furrowed, and her face showed a look of jealousy.

In the phalanx behind the lake, an extremely large boat of the Water Five Balou, at this time, nearly forty years old, wearing a battle robe on the outside, armor on the inside, and a handsome middle-aged Lu Xun looked at Baqiu in the distance with a very calm expression.

After looking at it for a long time, suspicion slowly rose between his eyebrows, and he said secretly: "Why are the defenders above the city wall so sparse? What about most of the enemy? ”

"What kind of conspiracy does this kid have in Huo Yi?"

He thought to himself, a little jealousy on his face.

After this successive battle, after defeating Lu Meng, breaking Sun Huan, and beheading Huang Gai, it was enough to make the Jiangdong generals quite frightened, and they did not dare to have the slightest contempt for them.

"General Qiqi Lu, according to our investigation, the garrison in Baqiu City is very weak, and it seems that they are all Wuxi barbarians, and they are not unified in their various clothes, and they do not seem to be Jingzhou soldiers."

Just as Lu Xun was thinking, the echo of the scout came from his ears.

Hearing that the military situation was indeed like this, Lu Xun was suddenly shocked, but before he could order the next deployment, a flat boat rushed from the downstream.

"Qiqi General Lu, yesterday a Jingzhou naval division suddenly attacked Lukou from the upstream east, because our battalion was empty and defenseless."

"Now the Jingzhou army has entered Lukou."

As the cruise ships scattered around the spying returned the news one after another, Lu Xun's face suddenly changed instantly, and he couldn't help exclaiming: "What? ”

"Lukou is lost?"

When the words fell, his face was no longer calm, and he waved his hand and commanded loudly, "Take out the map." ”

The order was passed down, and the guards on the side quickly took out the topographic map of Jingzhou and spread it out.

Lu Xun's fingers kept wandering on the picture, and the more he looked at his eyebrows, the more he wrinkled.

"It's broken!"

With a half-groan, he slapped the mast and shouted.

"General Lu, what's wrong?"

Xie Jing, the subordinate general on the side, saw that his expression was wrong, and quickly asked.

"Baqiu City, as a passage connecting Xiangshui and Jiangshui, will still wonder why the defense of such an important strategic place will be insufficient, it turns out that Huo Yi's plan is so big."

Lu Xun's pupils shrank, and the jealousy on his face became thicker and thicker.

"It is said that Huo Yi's department is only more than 3,000 people, and there are more than a few hundred of them are composed of Cao soldiers in the north who are not accustomed to water warfare, even if the Lukou camp is attacked, it will not be able to threaten Xiakou or even Chaisang, the hinterland of Jiangdong, along the waterway, right?"

"Yes~ What General Xie said is very true, General Lu is too worried."

"Let's quickly report this military situation to Wu Hou, and continue to dispatch troops down the east of the river to recapture Lukou!"

At this time, all the generals and colonels also echoed one after another, showing quite optimistic faces.

But when Lu Xun heard this, he was still worried, and his mood couldn't calm down at all.

Only he saw the seriousness of the Lukou camp after the loss of his own side!

Lu Xun did not echo the words of the generals, pondered for a long time, and ordered with a rather serious expression:

"Now that the garrison on Baqiu City is insufficient, Huo Yi wants to use the power of the Wuxi barbarians to defend the city."

"The barbarians lack armor, and their fighting spirit is not too high."

"Xie Jing, Li Yi listened to the order, and ordered the two of you to lead one unit to take turns to land on the shore and launch a strong attack on Baqiu, striving to break through the city as soon as possible and open up the connection with Changsha and Guiyang County."

"Yes,"

The military order was handed down, and General Li Yi and Xie Jing quickly surrendered their orders and left.

When the words fell, Lu Xun's expression was still very serious, and he ordered the scout to quickly report the situation of the fall of Lukou to Sun Quan of the public security.

"Woohoo."

With the sound of a strong horn on the river, I saw that Wu Junzhou's division had landed on the shore, preparing to launch an offensive against Baqiu City.

This also indicates that the fierce offensive and defensive battle is about to break out!

The Wu soldiers lined up to protect the siege weapons unloaded from the ship and launched an attack on the city.

The flames of war ignited, and it immediately fell into a white heat.

In successive attacks and defenses, Fan Ling and Shamoke also repelled several offensives of the Wu army with the advantage of fortifying the city.

It's just that Xie Jing and Li Yi took turns attacking in the wheel battle, without giving the defenders in the city any respite.

This makes it even more difficult for the barbarians who are already under-garrisoned to defend!

Even so, with Baqiu's sturdiness, he still blocked the offensive of Wu Bing.

But this was only the beginning, when the military situation of the fierce battle of Baqiu quickly spread south to Guiyang County, Jiaozhou Assassin Shi Buqi realized after a short contemplation that this was his own reinforcements trying to retake the city.

He then resolutely waved his army north, intending to attack Baqiu City with reinforcements.

Along the way, the situation in Changsha was already unstable, and the situation that was still panicked was stabilized by Buqi.

Suddenly, the situation in Baqiu City became serious.

Wuling engaged in Fan Ling, when he heard that Buqi had really stabilized Changsha County, his face changed, and he said secretly: "General Huo's departure really can't shake the land south of the Yangtze River, and the situation is out of control." ”

"At present, the troops in the city are overstretched, and if the Wu army is attacked, it will be difficult for Baqiu to hold it."

"Even the whole army will be in danger of overturning!"

He muttered secretly in his heart, and at this moment, Shamoke, the leader of Wuxi, also ran over to ask for advice with an eager expression: "Fan Zhi, I heard that the Wu people in Changsha County have resurrected again, and the battle situation is out of control. ”

"What should our army do?"

When the words fell, although Fan Ling was also quite nervous in her heart, she quickly calmed down on her face, and waved her hand and responded quite calmly:

"Don't be alarmed, Leader Sha, do you remember how General Huo explained before leaving?"

When the words settled, Shamoke paused slightly, and then blurted out, "General Huo said that if something is not done, you can give up Baqiu and other important towns and retreat to Wuling County, relying on the favorable terrain of mountains and rivers in the territory to deal with the Wu soldiers. ”

"Yes!"

Seeing this, Fan Ling echoed in a deep voice, "I have this intention, and I want to order all the troops to withdraw to the west while the Wu people have not yet encircled and attacked Baqiu. ”

"Fan's words are very much in line with my wishes."

After hearing about Fan Ling's plan, Shamoke's hanging heart slowly relaxed.

What he was most worried about was that Fan Ling would swear to the death and fight Wu Bing, so that the sons and daughters of the clan under his command would be lost in vain.

Retreat to the deep mountains to deal with the Wu people, this move is exactly what he wants!

In this way, it can not only assist the Jingzhou army, but also protect all the people.

And mountain warfare is still his forte.

Why not do what you can count in one fell swoop?
