On the other side of Fancheng, inside Xiangyang Shuijun Village.
Wenpin looked solemnly at Zhang Xiu's navy on the other side of the Han River, his brows knitted into the shape of a river. The warships on the left and right had begun to prepare, and arrows had been carried to the ship.
"Why!"
After looking across the river for a long time, Wenpin sighed.
Zhang Yun, who was behind, heard Wenpin sighing and asked in confusion: "General, the lord ordered us to go to war. This is an opportunity to make achievements. Why are you sighing?"
Wenpin frowned and said, "What do you think our army's chances of winning in this battle are?"
Zhang Yun thought for a moment and said: "Although Zhang Xiu's navy was on guard against us, it was not very vigilant and had a high chance of success. Not to mention the advantageous night attack and fire attack. We could defeat the enemy's navy in one battle and then go ashore to occupy Nanyang." , if everything goes well, the battle will be over within seven days and the entire Nanyang will be occupied."
Wenpin nodded, but his face was still tense.
"Then...why is the general worried?" Zhang Yun became even more confused.
"Alas!" Wenpin shook his head, "The reason why our army is so sure of winning this battle is because of a special word, but this special word can only be used once. After our army takes Nanyang, it will be able to defend Zhang Are you going to fight back?"
"This..." Zhang Yun was stunned.
Wenpin continued: "If we can't stop Zhang Xiu's army, I'm afraid it will anger Zhang Xiu and get him angry. Instead, it will give him an excuse to attack Jingzhou."
"Ah?" Zhang Yun was at a loss, "What should I do?"
"The only way now is to attack Wuguan first after breaking through the naval forces. Only by taking this pass into your own hands and defending it can you withstand Zhang Xiu's attack." Wenpin said.
"General, Yun is willing to lead troops to Wuguan. Before Zhang Xiu's reinforcements arrive, he will occupy Wuguan and block Zhang Xiu's reinforcements." Zhang Yun immediately realized the seriousness of the situation and volunteered.
Wenpin turned around and stared at him, "Do you know that it's going to be very bad for you? Within seven days, only our army can conquer Wancheng and occupy Nanyang, and then we can send reinforcements. If we can't capture it..." At this point, the rest of the words are unnecessary. Moreover.
After a brief thought, Zhang Yun knelt down on one knee: "Yun is willing to issue a military order. If Zhang Xiu wants to pass Wuguan, he must first step over my body, Zhang Yun."
"good!"
Wenpin helped Zhang Yun up, patted him on the shoulder and said, "I will hand over to you the only three thousand cavalry in the army. These are the elites of our army. There are also three thousand infantry to accompany you. Wuguan, I’ll leave it to you.”
"General, please don't worry!"
Zhang Yun said solemnly, then turned around and went down to prepare.
Darkness comes quietly.
The moonlight was quite bright tonight, but there was a mist on the river, and other objects could not be seen clearly even fifty steps away.
Wenpin led an army of 40,000 people and took advantage of the concealment of the water mist to move toward Fancheng Ferry.
"Hey! Who is coming in front?"
When they were a hundred steps away from the Zhang Xiu Navy Ferry, the patrolling team noticed the movement of a black figure on the opposite side and shouted loudly, the sound spreading across the river.
"We were out fishing, but the fog was too heavy and we got lost."
The other person replied.
The training soldier frowned, with a look of disbelief on his face, and then shouted: "The ferry is closed now, and the fog is too heavy to distinguish the true from the false. There is no need to get closer, otherwise don't blame me for being rude."
While shouting, he saw the black shadow gradually approaching and enlarging.
"wrong!"
When the tall ship gradually emerged from the heavy fog, the people on the patrol ship were stunned to the spot. It was a fishing boat, it was clearly an enemy warship.
"Quick! Report the news quickly!"
The people who reacted shouted at the top of their lungs.
"Whizzing!"
But it was too late. Dozens of sharp arrows shot out from the mist, ruthlessly claiming the lives of everyone on the patrol boat.
"General, it's all settled."
The people below will check and report back.
Wenpin's face tensed, he suddenly pulled out the sword from his waist, and roared angrily: "The whole army obeys the order, advances at full speed, breaks through the enemy's stronghold, and sets fire to the ships!"
“Here—!”
Suddenly, the speed of the building ship increased sharply, and the countless ships rushed faster, surpassing the building ship, and quickly moved towards the enemy's stronghold.
Zhangxiu Navy Dazhai was carefully built by Ding Feng and Chen Wu.
The innermost part is the Huishui Bay. The Huishui Bay is very large and has a very small entrance. It can only accommodate a small boat. The entrance is blocked by driftwood, and a water fort made of tied wood is built on top. There are people guarding the water fort. , under normal circumstances it is difficult to break through the water stronghold from the front.
But they met Wenpin.
Wenpin did not follow common sense and directly sacrificed a building ship. He used the weight and speed of the building ship to directly collide with the water army, trying to break through the water stronghold in one go and penetrate the enemy's hinterland.
As a military general, Wenpin knew what Ding Feng and Chen Wu were thinking.
Since Zhang Xiu formed the navy, the two of them have not made any achievements, and they are holding their breath in their hearts. They are just waiting for the opportunity to strike hard. Attacking by themselves is a good opportunity for the two of them to make contributions. They must be They will fight tooth and nail to resist, so what he has to do is to strive to reach the target in one step and reach the hinterland without giving them a chance to resist.
The speed of the building boat is getting faster and faster, and it is unstoppable.
The water village is close at hand.
"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!"
When the guards on the water stronghold saw the approaching building boats, they were all stunned. It took them a long time to react, and they blew the defensive horns and the drums rang loudly.
"boom--!"
But it was too late.
The fully charged building boat hit the water village unstoppably, smashing the water wall into pieces. The speed of the building boat was finally intercepted, and it stopped in the middle after rushing into Huishui Bay.
Countless Jingzhou troops rushed in and fought their way in.
Wenpin also quickly got off the boat, transferred to the boat, and led his bodyguard to kill Ding Feng and Chen Wu's military tent.
At this time, Ding Feng and Chen Wu had already woken up.
Due to the sudden incident, both of them were a little confused.
"Liu Biao actually dared to attack our army secretly?" Chen Wu still couldn't believe it.
Ding Feng said eagerly: "It doesn't matter who it is now. The enemy has already broken through the water stronghold. We must organize our forces to counterattack immediately, otherwise it will be too late."
Chen Wu sat calmly: "No! No! The attack on the military stronghold is just one place. They are bound to win this military stronghold. If we organize a counterattack, we will only sacrifice the lives of the soldiers in vain. It is not cost-effective, well..." Chen Wu Wu thought for a moment and stood up immediately, "Chengyuan (Ding Feng's nickname), you quickly go to the second battalion and organize the troops to establish a defense line at Lujiatai behind Fancheng. I will organize the troops here to retreat and we will meet there. Block the enemy's front, and then rush eight hundred miles away to send a message to the lord."
"Okay, I'll go now."
Ding Feng went out immediately, mounted his horse and took his guards with him and ran to the second army stronghold.
Of the 40,000 people in the navy, 30,000 were recruits. In order to keep it secret, Chen Wu and Ding Feng divided the 30,000 people into four military camps, with 10,000 people in each camp, and scattered them in four places for training. After four or five After months of training, he has already gained preliminary combat effectiveness.
It just so happens that this battle can be used as a training exercise.
