Lü Meng raided Jingzhou and led 30,000 troops. In order to ensure the concealment of the news, he divided his troops. He himself led 5,000 elites in the lead. Behind him, Han Dang, Jiang Qin, Zhu Ran and other generals led thousands of troops each.
Go in order.
After dividing the troops, Feng Zhou found the fighter plane.
Therefore, it was possible to use the powerful combat power of a thousand Wei troops to annihilate the effective strength of Lü Meng's army.
In this battle at the back of the river, the formation beheaded the opponent's commander Lu Meng, the opponent's generals Zhou Tai and Ding Feng, killed 1,500 soldiers, and captured 2,000, while the rest fled.
However, these fleeing soldiers abandoned their armor and weapons. Within the control area of the Shu army, as long as a piece of official document was needed, officials at all levels could be mobilized to round them up.
After the battlefield was cleaned, a horse suddenly came to report.
"Report..., I am reporting to the crown prince that the follow-up troops of the Wu army have three troops entangled by our army. However, Pan Zhang and Xu Sheng responded in time and have retreated. They moved quickly and our army could not catch up."
"Which Wu army is closest to us?"
"It was the enemy's veteran general Han Dang who was in charge of four thousand men and was entangled by the cold wind tribe."
Feng Zhou smiled slightly: "Wu's army has many soldiers and we have few. We only need to concentrate our superior forces and annihilate the enemy's effective strength. If we want to completely annihilate the enemy's army, we will be blamed!"
After saying that, he got on his horse again, raised his gun and shouted: "My sons, make great achievements, today, follow me to kill Han Dang!"
"promise!"
All the officers and soldiers listened to the order, immediately organized their queues, and rushed to the battlefield again.
…
Han Dang is an old man from Soochow. He has followed the Sun family since Sun Jian was around and made countless contributions. Therefore, he is deeply respected and trusted by Sun Quan. Although he is not the commander of an army, he has more than a thousand private soldiers.
This attack on Jingzhou was a great achievement in opening up the territory. Once a victory was achieved, there would be great benefits, so Sun Quan naturally gave such a good opportunity to his old minister Han Dang.
Han Dang's 4,000 men followed Lü Meng's army all the way. Unexpectedly, in the middle of the night, the bridge over the river in front suddenly broke and the soldiers guarding the bridge disappeared. The old general immediately felt that something was wrong and immediately led his army to retreat.
But the Shu army also suddenly appeared. They did not fight. They just harassed the Wu army all the way, which exhausted the Wu army. At dawn, Leng Feng led a thousand Shu troops to suddenly appear. Although the number was small, their combat effectiveness was extremely amazing.
One thousand people tightly entangled Han Dang's four thousand people.
At three o'clock in the morning, the Wu army still could not fight off the entanglement of the Shu army. When Han Dang was anxious, another Shu army suddenly appeared, and like a right hook, it penetrated directly into the Wu army's ribs. One of the young generals led dozens of elite soldiers.
, launched a deep assault on the Wu army, and soon reached the vicinity of Handang.
"But Old General Han Dang? Now that Lu Meng, Ding Feng, and Zhou Tai have all died in the battle, you can't escape, so why not surrender?"
As he said that, the young general threw it away with his head.
When the soldiers caught him, Han Dang took a closer look and couldn't help but be shocked: "It's Chengyuan (Ding Feng)!"
His beard and hair were spread out, and he glared at the young general with a pair of tiger eyes: "Who are you? Tell me your name!"
"Old General, I am Liu Chan. If you don't surrender now, when will you wait?" Feng Zhou laughed loudly, shaking his spear in his hand, and killed three Wu generals and more than a dozen soldiers one after another.
Han Dang raised the iron gun in his hand and said angrily: "I, Han Dang, have been loyal to the Sun family for three lives, how could I surrender to a kid like you! It's simply a wishful thinking!"
As he yelled and cursed, Han Dang drew his gun and rode towards him to kill him.
But as soon as they closed, Feng Zhou stabbed Han Dang in the throat, casually cut off his head, and shouted: "Han Dang is dead, surrender and don't kill him!"
The Wu army was defeated.
Such a scene soon happened to Jiang Qin and Zhu Ran, two Wu army troops. Facing the boundless Shu army, which was elite and good at fighting and had high combat effectiveness, they were quickly defeated. Jiang Qin committed suicide and Zhu Ran died.
He led hundreds of elite soldiers and fled back to Lukou.
In this battle, the boat was sealed to lure the enemy deep, and a flexible square formation was used to actively disperse the enemy's forces, concentrate superior forces, and annihilate the enemy's effective strength. In the end, 20,000 Wu troops were annihilated, of which 6,000 were killed, 10,000 were captured, and the rest were routed and beheaded.
After killing the coach Lu Meng and the generals Zhou Tai, Ding Feng and Han Dang, the Wu army, with less than 10,000 troops, fled back to Lukou under the leadership of Pan Zhang and Xu Sheng.
When Mi Fang heard the news in Jiangling City, she let out a long sigh of relief and sat down on the ground at the top of the city. She was in danger, but she was even more surprised when she heard the news that Lu Meng, Han Dang and others were killed by the Sealing Boat Formation.
After speaking for a long time, he said to the generals around him: "Adou..., the Crown Prince is indeed a dragon among men. This time I will follow him to perform meritorious service and try my best to protect Jingzhou. Let's see how Guan Yu responds to me!"
The news reached the front line of Xiangfan. When Guan Yu heard about it, he stood up in shock and shouted: "This Lu Meng and Lu Xun, my son, actually teamed up to deceive me! If Adou hadn't been prepared, Jingzhou would not be safe!"
Guan Ping said: "Now Fancheng is in a hurry and it is difficult to leave, and the rear is unstable. Although the Wu army has been repulsed, the prince still has few people at his disposal, so it is better to move the army back to the army."
Guan Yu Fenran said: "I am taking Fancheng for now. Once I have taken Fancheng, I will march forward with a long march to Xudu, wipe out the Cao thieves, and pacify the Han Dynasty. Then the Wu army entered from behind, but they were driven back by Adou.
, why do you worry? The army will be ready for a few days before attacking Fancheng!"
The eldest brother Liu Bei captured Hanzhong, and the nephew Liu Chan defeated the Wu army and saved Jingzhou. They were all great achievements. Guan Yu naturally did not want to fall behind the two of them, so he vowed to capture Fancheng.
…
When Guan Yu received the news from Jingzhou, a fast ship flew to Moling.
At this time, Moling, the Chariot and Cavalry General's Mansion.
In the 14th year of Jian'an, Liu Bei declared Sun Quan the Chariot and Cavalry General. Although Sun Quan claimed to be the Marquis of Wu internally, he still attached great importance to the imperial title from the central court, so he called his residence the Chariot and Cavalry General's Mansion.
On this day, Sun Quan walked around the study from morning till night. He didn't even eat, he just kept asking questions. He, who was always very lenient, actually scolded seven or eight guards.
Accompanying him in the study were many important officials of Soochow.
Chang Shi Zhang Zhao, Zuo Sima Gu Yong, Zhong Sima Zhuge Jin, and the young Luo Tong who had just been transferred to the Central Committee and served as Jianzhong Zhonglang General were all capable ministers under Sun Quan in governing the country.
At this time, they all looked solemn, and no one dared to touch Wu Hou Sun Quan's bad luck at this time.
"Hasn't there been any news about Jingzhou yet? Why are Lu Meng and Lu Xun so slow!"
Sun Quan asked for the thirty-sixth time.
"My lord, the Sima Mansion has been waiting for news from the front, but after all, we are thousands of miles apart, and this war will last for a long time, so please be patient and calm, lord."
Zuo Sima Gu Yong said.
He was an upright man, taciturn, and every word he said was accurate. Only when he spoke, Sun Quan would not lose his temper.
Although he needed to be calm when facing major events, as the leader of Soochow, his repeated northern expeditions stopped at Hefei. Therefore, facing this battle to expand the frontier, Sun Quan inevitably behaved inappropriately.
Sun Quan had long been tired of asking questions. He just asked casually and had no hope of getting any information.
He was the actual ruler of Soochow. He was not only concerned about the outcome of the war, he was also more concerned about the safety of Lü Meng's armies and whether there would be a protracted war.
After all, the army in Hefei is still fighting. Once Jingzhou falls into war, there will be double pressure on logistics.
After all, Sun Quan was no match for Cao Cao, who could relocate hundreds of thousands of people at will. He was already under a lot of pressure just to bear the food and fodder for a hundred thousand troops.
