He has said everything that needs to be said, and Jia Xu does not want to argue with Cheng Yu about the rights and wrongs. Whether he can figure it out now depends on Cheng Yu himself.
"Immediately send someone to report the situation in Chengdu to my lord."
After everything was done, Cheng Yu directly ordered people to go to Mianzhu to report to Yuan Shu about the situation here.
"promise."
Soon, he rode a fast horse and ran straight towards Yuan Shu's camp.
Just when everything was calm, Chen Gong's Jingzhou Navy went north along the river and finally entered Dongguanghan County. They first went to Deyang, and then continued north to Guanghan. After taking this place, the Navy rushed to Yanting.
outside.
"Third General, something bad has happened. Countless warships have appeared on the river outside Yanting. I think the Jingzhou Navy has arrived."
As soon as Chen Gong's Jingzhou Navy arrived, they were discovered by the scouts arranged by Zhang Fei outside.
"What, Jingzhou Navy has arrived?"
Zhang Fei was drinking, and when he heard that Jingzhou Navy was approaching, his eyes widened as wide as a pair of brass bells.
"Absolutely true."
After being glared at by Zhang Fei, the scout also trembled and replied to Zhang Fei tremblingly.
"The whole army is ready for war."
Zhang Fei didn't care what to say to the soldiers now, and directly ordered the entire army to prepare for war.
After receiving Zhang Fei's order, the entire Yanting suddenly became active like a tiger waking up from sleep.
"Military advisor, telegram from Mr. Chen Gong."
When Chen Gong arrived outside Yanting, he also sent a telegram directly to Xun You Xun Gongda who was in charge of Langzhong.
"Chen Gong telegram?
This is when he arrived at Yanting."
Upon hearing the telegram from Chen Gong, Xun You immediately guessed that the Jingzhou Navy he had longed for had finally arrived.
After taking it apart, it turned out that it was just as he expected. Chen Gong led the Jingzhou navy to fight outside Yanting. Now he sent a telegram with the intention of taking the soldiers and horses from Langzhong to surround Yanting with him.
"Military advisor, what should we do now?"
Taishi Ci glanced at Xun You and asked him directly.
"What else can be done?
Send out troops immediately and surround Yanting."
Originally, he didn't dare to attack Yanting because he didn't have enough troops. Now Chen Gong is here and Jingzhou Navy is here. In a single round, Jingzhou Navy has hundreds of thousands of troops. With his own troops and horses, he can definitely take it directly.
Go to Yanting.
"promise."
When Taishi Ci heard Xun You's words, he didn't hesitate. He held Cheng Nuo's fist in his fist, then organized his troops and horses, left Langzhong and marched towards Yanting.
"Third general, what's wrong, Xun You from Langzhong is coming towards Yanting with an army of 80,000 men."
As the saying goes, good fortune never comes in pairs, and misfortune never comes alone. Now Chen Gong has set up a water fortress outside Yanting, and now Xun You has also come from Langzhong to kill him. This is to attack him from two sides.
"What do you think?"
Zhang Fei glanced at the soldiers around him, and he also knew that the current situation was critical. One person was short-sighted, and the three were wise. One more person would have more brains and could always come up with countermeasures.
"Three generals, in my opinion, we must not give them a chance to unite. Now we either send troops to capture Chen Gong's water stronghold, or we send troops to attack Xun You who came from Langzhong. Choose one of the two to scare you.
That’s all we can do.”
Captain Chen Zhang glanced at Zhang Fei and directly put forward his own suggestion. He didn't know anything else. What he knew now was that he must not give Xun You and Chen Gong a chance to unite, otherwise they would all come to an end if they came to the city.
"Yes, three generals, I think we can only take the initiative now and cannot defend passively. We can get some benefits by relying on Yanting's city defense, but if they really join forces, we are like birds in the fence, and we can fly if we want.
Won’t go out.”
Another captain, Zhang He, did the same and clasped his fists at Zhang Fei.
"Then do you think we should defeat Xun You first or attack Chen Palace first?"
Zhang Fei really listened to it now. He also knew that Chen Gong and Xun You could not be allowed to fight now, but now he was not sure who to fight first.
"Of course we should attack Chen Gong first. Although his water stronghold is tight, it is not impossible to break it."
After hearing Zhang Fei's words, Chen Zhang directly expressed his thoughts.
"Tell me, how can you destroy Chen Gong's water fortress?"
Zhang Fei glanced at Chen Zhang, he didn't expect that his subordinates were so capable.
"Third General, Chen Gong's water stronghold is downstream. It is very easy to defeat him. Just arrange a walking boat carrying kerosene directly upstream, and then take advantage of the wind and attack his water stronghold down the river. Even if you can't attack him in one go,
Burning his water stronghold will cause chaos in Chen Palace, and then you can send troops to attack, and you will definitely be able to defeat the enemy."
Zhang Fei was confused when he heard Chen Zhang's words. He really didn't expect that he was also Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. To him, Chen Zhang's strategy was indeed a life-saving recipe.
"Third General, what Chen Zhang said is true, just do it."
When Zhang He heard Chen Zhang's words, he also clasped his fists at him.
"Okay, let's do it this way. Prepare to use the fire oil to escape. We will attack Chen Gong's water village at night tonight."
Since what they said is so right, Zhang Fei has nothing more to say, just do it. In terms of fighting, Zhang Fei has never been afraid of anyone.
"promise."
Soon the army in Yanting began to prepare, and Zhang Fei also took the risk and took out all the war-ready kerosene in Yanting. Dozens of walking boats not only carried kerosene, but were also fully loaded with fire starters, and then took advantage of the opportunity.
In the middle of the night, the moon was dark and the wind was high, so we rushed down the river towards the water village of Chen Gong.
Chen Gong is not a fool. Now that they are so close to Yanting, how could they not take precautions? The kerosene boat prepared by Zhang Fei did not dare to light a fire all the way south, just for fear of being discovered, but even so, they were arranged by Chen Gong early.
Spotted by patrol boats on the river.
"who?"
"Light the fire and rush the boat."
Seeing that he was discovered by Chen Gong's people, Chen Zhang, who was in charge of the fire boat, directly ordered the fire boat to be lit and attack the water village.
Upon hearing Chen Zhang's order, dozens of boats instantly lit up, like torches at night, heading towards the water village.
"No, shoot the arrow."
Seeing the fire ship approaching, the patrol ship immediately panicked, and arrows flew all over the place, all of them shooting at the oncoming fire ship.
These fire ships were now time bombs, flying at high speeds despite the rain of arrows, directly igniting the surrounding patrol boats, and then rushed towards the water village.
"Military advisor, suddenly dozens of walking boats came from the direction of Yanting. These walking boats all carried kerosene, and now they seem to be going crazy and crashing into the water stronghold."
Soon Cai Mao came directly outside Chen Gong's house and reported to him what had just happened.
"What did you say?"
After hearing Cai Mao's words, Chen Gong put on a coat and walked out.
"Military advisor, I have arranged battleships and Meng Chong is ready. Although the fireships are fierce, it is simply impossible to break through the water stronghold."
Seeing Chen Gong, Cai Hao immediately saluted him and told him what he did.
"This is not the key, you don't understand, Xu Huang, Zang Ba."
After hearing Cai Mao's arrangements, Chen Gong shook his head. This was not to say that there was something wrong with Cai Mao's response, but that he only saw the outermost parts and did not notice the problems behind these fire ships.
Now that the fire ship is coming, it will more or less cause some chaos to our water village. If a troop of soldiers and horses suddenly come to kill us at this time, and our attention is on the water, we will definitely be caught off guard. This is a random attack.
Zhang Fei’s wish was fulfilled.
"exist."
"exist."
Xu Huang and Zang Ba realized that there was definitely something fishy going on as soon as they got on the fire boat, so they arrived outside Chen Gong's house early and waited for orders.
"Assemble the Hengye Army immediately and the Xuzhou Army to prepare for battle."
After looking at the two generals, Chen Gong directly ordered them to prepare for battle.
"The military advisor is afraid that the enemy may appear to be coming by water, but in fact they want to take advantage of the chaos in the water village to sneak attack us from the road."
Xu Huang glanced at Chen Gong and immediately understood what he was thinking.
"That's right, that's what I'm afraid of. You should set up your defenses immediately. They must not be allowed to come in."
Chen Gong nodded. To be honest, the generals under Yuan Shu are all talented. Not to mention Zhao Yun, Gao Lan, Zhang He, Xu Huang, and Ma Chao are all talented generals. It would be unreasonable to say that Yuan Shu does not conquer the world.
Allow.
"Understood."
The two nodded directly, then clasped their fists in salute and led their troops to set up defenses to guard against Zhang Fei's attack.
"Cai Mao."
After the two left, Chen Gong spoke again and ordered Cai Hao's general.
"My subordinate is here."
Cai Hao immediately cupped his fists and saluted.
"Immediately arrange for the naval forces to leave the water village on building ships and fighting ships, and then divide the troops into two groups. One group will go directly to Yanting, and the other group of troops will attack the enemy directly from behind. Since they are coming, I will let them come and go.
No."
Chen Gong glanced at Cai Mao and then looked into the distance. In fact, he could imagine that Zhang Fei was out to attack the camp. After all, once Xun You's troops came from Langzhong and surrounded him, Zhang Fei would be completely finished.
But if Zhang Fei lets Xun You from Langzhong come to attack him instead of killing him, he is looking down on himself. He will teach Zhang Fei a lesson no matter what.
"promise."
When Cai Mao heard Chen Gong's words, he did not dare to stay. In addition to sending some sailors to guard against the fireboats going down the river, the remaining 80,000 sailors boarded the ships. The 30,000-strong army rushed towards Yanting, and the remaining five
Wan Dajun started to pursue Zhang Fei in the direction he was heading.
Zhang Fei also went out in full force this time. In addition to leaving 5,000 soldiers and horses to garrison Yanting City, the 80,000-strong army left 75,000 people to directly attack the water village.
"coming."
Hearing the oncoming shouts of killing, Xu Huang and Zang Ba looked at each other, knowing that the enemy was coming.
"Well, this Fei is not easy to deal with. My lord has long said that this man is brave enough for all men, so you and I must not be impulsive and must not fight with him. Do you understand?"
Zang Ba glanced at Xu Huang and directly warned him not to show personal bravery.
"What do you mean if the two of us fight Zhang Fei?"
Although Zang Ba said this, Xu Huang was a little eager to give it a try. He had fought Zhang Fei once in Yanzhou and knew that he was no match for him, so he wanted to fight Zhang Fei with Zang Ba. If he could win
He definitely did a great job.
"Gong Ming, don't be impulsive. As long as we can block Zhang Fei's troops, it will be a great achievement. I believe that the military advisor must have sent people to attack Yanting and steal his retreat. Now you are going to risk a head-on confrontation with Zhang Fei.
I don't agree. If you really want to go, I will report it to the military advisor immediately."
Hearing Xu Huang's words, Zang Ba couldn't help but feel his heart sink. This was what he was afraid of, so he vaccinated him in advance. Unexpectedly, Xu Huang still wanted to take risks.
"Okay, I understand. By the way, you immediately order the fighting ships and tower ships left behind to prepare the trebuchets for me."
Zang Ba said this, Xu Huang could only suppress the thoughts in his heart.
"Gongming, it's dark and windy this month, and the trebuchet can't see the enemy at all. How can we hit him?"
If it hits you on the head, it will be over."
Zang Ba just feels like his head is buzzing now, please stop causing trouble, please.
"It's okay, it's just night, isn't it? I have my own way."
Xu Huang glanced at Zang Ba. Just because you can't do it doesn't mean I can't do it. He already had a plan in mind.
"I'd like to hear what you can do."
Now Zang Ba is a little confused. It's so late at night, how can you turn it into daytime?
"Let me use torches to set up a line of fire. As long as the enemy dares to show up, just let the trebuchet hit me at that line of fire. It will be done."
Zang Ba glanced at Xu Huang. Don't tell me that Xu Huang's strategy is very effective. The line of fire is so obvious at night. It's not possible to hit birds with a trebuchet. It's still possible to hit the birds according to the line of fire. Based on the line of fire, as long as the enemy dares to appear,
The mother who smashed him directly didn't even know her.
"Sure, that's it. Send someone to notify you right away."
"promise."
Soon Zang Ba and Xu Huang's orders were transmitted to the water stronghold, and the remaining fighting ships and trebuchets on the building ships began to prepare, ready to attack the line of fire at any time.
