Chapter 1099 Opening the curtain of attacking Jiangdong
Gan Ning returned to the navy camp with a smile, and the camp was bustling with excitement. Four Soochow ships had been pulled to a stop in shallow water, and the Wu soldiers on them had also been captured.
Gan Ning, Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin returned to the Chinese army's tent with smiles on their faces.
The three of them clenched their fists and bowed to Jia Xu before taking their seats.
Gan Ning said: "Military advisor, you are really clever. You figured out that Sun Ce's men would come to pretend to attack, and then pretended to be defeated and left. You didn't go out to fight in person, so you don't know Sun Ce's face. He must have been happy to wait for me at that time.
After leading us out of the water village, when we stopped pursuing him, Sun Ce felt like he was struck by lightning, and he was completely stunned. I feel extremely happy when I think of this scene."
After finishing speaking, Gan Ning laughed again.
Jiang Qin rubbed his hands and said with a smile: "If we don't pursue Sun Ce, he will be so angry."
Jiang Qin grinned and was very happy.
With a person who specializes in planning, the three of them are even more skilled. Jia Xu said sternly: "Sun Ce has suffered consecutive defeats. This kind of tentative attack will definitely not happen again. Once there is a battle, it will definitely be a head-to-head fight between the strengths of both sides.
Therefore, the three of you must work hard to train the navy and strive to restore the combat effectiveness of the navy as soon as possible. This is the basis of combat."
"I got it!"
Gan Ning nodded in agreement and said, "Commander, it's late at night. You should go back and rest."
Jia Xu stood up, turned and left.
Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin also stood up to say goodbye and returned to their tents to rest.
…
Under night, six warships gradually entered Poyang Lake.
After Sun Ce settled the navy, he returned to the camp angrily and sat down in the tent, looking very irritable. Next to him, Zhou Yu also lifted up his robe and sat down. Zhou Yu and Sun Ce teamed up to attack, Sun Ce was responsible for seducing, and Zhou Yu
Responsible for the ambush, but unfortunately Sun Ce's seduction failed, and Zhou Yu's ambush also lost its effect.
Sun Ce said: "Gong Jin, we failed again, what should we do?"
Zhou Yu said helplessly: "There must be Wang Can's advisers in Gan Ning's navy, otherwise it would be impossible for us to see through our plots over and over again, and they were also designed. I don't think we need to harass them in the short term."
, Unless we want to fight Gan Ning, we can only control the river and restrict the connection between Wang Can and Xiangyang."
When speaking, Zhou Yu was also a little tired.
It was also difficult for him to deal with the Shu navy, which was defending like a tortoise.
If you cannot lure the enemy to fight, it will be difficult to find fighting opportunities.
…
January passed quietly.
During this period, Sun Ce never appeared again, but only firmly controlled the Yangtze River and monitored Wang Can's movements. Sun Ce and Zhou Yu also considered fighting a tough battle and storming each other's navy camps.
However, the navy camp in Xiakou had more than 40,000 elite soldiers selected by Gan Ning, and more than 50,000 ordinary navy troops. Such huge numbers made Sun Ce and Zhou Yu dare not act rashly. Although their navy troops were all elite,
There are also more than 60,000 people, but not all of the more than 60,000 navy troops are distributed in Poyang Lake, only a part of them.
Once Zhou Yu and Sun Ce's naval forces are exhausted, it will be even more difficult.
If you want to win, you have to be smart.
Therefore, Sun Ce and Zhou Yu are still waiting for the opportunity.
One month passed, which was good news for Wang Can, because the morale of Gan Ning's navy became high, and under Gan Ning's training, the soldiers had a completely different momentum than before.
This effect is the result of the training of Gan Ning, Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin.
In the naval camp, Gan Ning was sitting in the main seat, with Jia Xu, Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin sitting below.
Jia Xu said solemnly: "Before I came to the camp, my lord made it clear that we would attack Jiujiang in one month. Now that the navy training is completed, the next step is the task assigned by your lord. At this time, we are no longer cowardly, we must
Take the initiative to find Sun Ce's navy, fight with it, contain Sun Ce and Zhou Yu, and prevent him from rushing to help Jiujiang."
Gan Ning said sternly: "Commander, I have been impatient for a long time. That's right."
Zhou Tai smiled and said: "Military advisor, according to my idea, we will directly use 100,000 people to fight Sun Ce, train the soldiers with war, and the rest will be the elite. However, now that the training is completed, we can give it a try."
Jiang Qin said: "We are leading the army to fight. Sun Ce must be very confused and can't figure out what we are going to do?"
Gan Ning said coldly: "What do we do? We want to kill them."
The three naval generals were all high-spirited and ready to fight.
Jia Xu glanced at these three people, nodded secretly in his heart, and said to himself that Wang Can's vision was accurate enough. Although Gan Ning, Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin were water thieves and not orthodox navy generals, they had an indomitable momentum. They were trained to do so.
The navy army also has a similar momentum, so that they are not afraid of death and can charge forward bravely.
…
Poyang Lake, the headquarters of the Soochow Navy.
There was a sound of rapid footsteps coming from far away, and a soldier quickly ran into the camp.
The soldiers saluted Sun Ce and Zhou Yu respectfully, clasped their fists and said, "Grand Commander, the scouts have come to report that Gan Ning has led the Shu navy warships to leave the water stronghold and come towards the direction of our army."
After hearing this, Zhou Yu had a puzzled expression on his face.
After a month, could it be that Gan Ning had trained his naval force to perfection?
Sun Ce waved his hand to let the soldiers retreat, and said: "Gong Jin, Gan Ning suddenly led all the navy to kill Poyang Lake. What do you mean by Gan Ning?"
Zhou Yu thought for a while and said in a deep voice: "Gan Ning's attack must have a purpose, otherwise he would not have come for revenge alone, and Wang Can would not agree with Gan Ning's motivation. The only possibility is that Gan Ning sent troops to cooperate.
Only Wang Can would send troops... Could it be... Could it be that Wang Can sent troops and Gan Ning sent troops?"
Sun Ce exclaimed, "How is this possible?"
He thought that Wang Can had just captured Jiangxia and was about to send troops again. Wouldn't he want to attack Jiujiang?
Just as Sun Ce was thinking in his mind, another soldier quickly ran in, clasped his fists and said: "The Governor, the Grand Administrator of Jiujiang, General Taishi, has sent news that Wang Can has led 60,000 elite troops to attack Jiujiang, and asks the Governor to contain the Shu Kingdom.
navy, and gave Chai Sang and Sun Yi strong support."
Zhou Yu waved his hand and said, "I know, let's go down."
At this time, Zhou Yu's face was as sinking as water.
Wang Can did not move at all, but his movement was like thunder and lightning, which was too fast. Wang Can sent out troops by waterway. With Gan Ning to contain Zhou Yu's navy, Wang Can led the main force to attack Jiujiang without any distractions. This was a great threat.
Sun Ce said: "Wang Can's troops are advancing in two directions. We must fight Gan Ning. What should we do?"
Zhou Yu said solemnly: "Let me think about it, this battle is related to whether Jiangdong can defend its territory. If we win, Wang Can will retreat and there will be no more power to attack Jiangdong in a short time; if we lose, Wang Can's army will march straight in and attack."
The city is plundering the land. Therefore, we must fight this battle well. Bo Fu, please send an order to the lord and ask him to send troops to support General Taishi to avoid a shortage of troops."
"Okay, I'll do it right away.":
Sun Ce left in a hurry to send a message to Sun Jian.
Zhou Yu stood up and took out a map, looked at it carefully, and thought about how to deal with it. The war was approaching infinitely, Zhou Yu had already sensed the coming storm, and had to make plans in advance.
