Lu Bu, Chen Gong and others stood on the wall of Yiling and looked towards the west in the distance. They saw boats crisscrossing the water far away, and warships suppressed the rapid river and passed through the Three Gorges waterway. We arrived at the exit of Degawa.
"The warships of the Shu army seem to have some of the charm of our navy. They actually crossed the Three Gorges waterway so quickly..."
Chen Gong looked at it carefully for a moment and said.
His soul is powerful and he can feel the changes in vitality in the far distance, especially where the Shu army warships go, the originally turbulent and rapid river water becomes obviously calmer.
The strange beasts and monsters in the water that could be vaguely felt in the depths of the river seemed to feel some kind of aura when the warship passed by, and they lurked deeper, not daring to come out of the water and collide with the Shu army.
From these circumstances, it is easy to draw a conclusion, that is, the navy of the Shu Army, especially their warships, have also undergone various enhancements.
Although he is still not as good as Daxia Daozhengji who has accumulated several years of technical experience, he is full of potential and will definitely pose a threat to Jiangling in the future.
"This should be Zhuge Liang's handiwork!"
Chen Gong lamented in his heart that the navy of the Shu army was not as good as the experienced navy of Daxia. Originally, the warships were also several generations behind. However, after Zhuge Liang's arrival, the military equipment of the entire Shu army changed drastically.
Historical records record that Zhuge Liang was not only good at internal affairs and able to command and train troops, he also had in-depth research on machinery and equipment. He created wooden oxen and flowing horses that could transport grain in high mountains.
The repeated crossbow being studied is even more of a killing weapon, and can easily kill a large number of soldiers.
By the way, he is also proficient in formations, and even used the seven-star formation to extend his life when his life span was about to end... Although he failed, his accomplishments in formations can also be seen in this aspect.
A supreme Zhuge Liang could easily surpass Daozhengsi and Tiangongyuan in Daxia.
That is to say, he has not arrived for long, and he is also responsible for the government and military affairs of the entire dynasty, so he has no spare time to research equipment. Otherwise, if Zhuge Liang is given two or three months, the Shu army's warships will definitely be able to catch up with Daxia's Wuda. ship.
The importance of a top talent in history and its influence on a dynasty can be seen.
"The warships of the Shu army are indeed not weak, but our Daxia navy has always been invincible. The officers and soldiers in the army are all elites in hundreds of battles. Even if the warships are comparable, the opponent is no match for our army!"
Tan Daoji said in a deep voice.
When the Shu army leaves Sichuan, it will advance by land and water. The Yiling camp will also separate the defenders and the navy for corresponding confrontations. The deputy general manager Tan Daoji will be responsible for the naval command of the camp.
He was born in the Southern Song Dynasty. As a general of the Southern Dynasty, his essential ability was water warfare. Wang Sengbian on the side is similar to him. They are both generals who can fight on foot and water. However, they also have corresponding flaws, that is, they are not very good at cavalry...
When everyone on the city wall was discussing.
The Shu army had already set up camp in Yiling. The Shu army's camp was some distance away from Yiling. All Lu Bu and the others saw was the forward.
Soon, the Xia army's spies returned to report the situation of the Shu army.
The Shu army set out from Zigui with more than a thousand warships and at least three to four hundred thousand troops. It was not that the Shu army was unable to dispatch more troops, but the width of the Three Gorges waterway was limited and could not accommodate more troops.
Only by passing through Yiling and arriving at Jiangling, Jiangxia and other places can there be room for an army of millions to spread out.
As for the general who commanded the Shu army, spies could not get close. The spies who went to Zigui and other places to inquire about information have not yet responded, so they do not know for the time being.
"Hmph, the only people the big-eared thief can trust with his army are Guan Yu and the ring-eyed thief. The person coming must be one of the two!"
After hearing the spy's report, Lu Bu sneered and made an immediate judgment.
The others looked at each other and felt that what Lu Bu said made sense.
There are many top warriors in the Shu Han Dynasty, but apart from these few warriors, there is a shortage of weaker generals and middle-level generals. There are even fewer people who have the ability to command an army.
The recruited generals from other eras can only barely fill the gap between the middle-level generals and the grassroots.
The top strong men are still Liu Bei's old team. After all, in thousands of years of history, the Shu Han could be regarded as the pinnacle of power in the separatist land of Bashu.
In other eras, whether it is Gongsun Shu in the late Western Han Dynasty, Cheng Han in the Jin Dynasty, Shu in the Five Dynasties, or Ming Xia in the late Yuan Dynasty, they cannot compare with the Shu Han, let alone the repeated Northern Expeditions in the early and middle periods of the Shu Han. The feat of competing against most of the world.
But after all, Bashu cannot be compared with the Central Plains and the southern half of the Yangtze River. It is blocked by mountains and rivers and can easily become unstable. This makes it easy for the soldiers of the regime of Bashu to pull their hips. On such a basis, it is difficult to produce a world-famous historical general.
The most powerful general that Shu Han has recruited in recent years is the famous general Li Dingguo in the late Ming Dynasty. Apart from him, everyone else is relatively average...
In the case of lack of talents, Liu Bei still had to fight against the Qin Dynasty in the north. The candidates for the generals for the Eastern Expedition could actually be easily judged.
Jiang Wei has the ability to command an army, but his qualifications cannot be compared with the founding heroes of the Shu Han Dynasty, and his prestige and strength are insufficient. Zhuge Liang needs to be in charge of the overall situation and cannot go out.
Only Guan Yu and Zhang Fei can serve as generals.
Lu Bu had not been in Yiling for a long time. He just asked the generals to take orders and had not yet fully mastered the troops and horses, so he had no son to lead his troops out of the city at this time to weaken the enemy's spirit.
Anyway, the Xia army only needs to hold on to this place. The enemy is anxious, not Daxia.
The second day.
In the early morning, the sun penetrated the clouds and shone on the water. The warships of the Shu army moved forward slowly. On the shore, there were infantry of the Shu army wearing light red armor approaching the city.
Yiling was just a small city in history, but in the world of China, after Huan Wen and Fu Youde's reinforcements not long ago, it has become a solid military fortress, firmly stuck at the choke point of the Shu army's departure from Sichuan.
If this nail cannot be pulled out, the Shu army will not be able to threaten Jiangling.
Woohoo!
The dull sound of the horn echoed in the steep mountains and forests on both sides of the strait, and a chilling atmosphere rose into the sky. In the center of the Shu army's formation, a general's flag was erected high with the Chinese character Zhang embroidered on it.
This large banner has also been specially tempered to attract the energy of the entire Shu army and gather the strength of the army. There is no need to deliberately arrange the troops to set up a large formation that requires hundreds of thousands or hundreds of thousands of troops to launch. It can mobilize the military momentum and stimulate and bless the soldiers.
This is a military weapon.
Lu Bu and other generals had already arrived at the city wall and saw the scene in the distance.
"He is indeed a ring-eyed thief!"
Lu Bu sneered.
A ray of light burst out from his eyes, and a qi that penetrated the sky and earth, shaking the void of heaven and earth, was like a violent wind, sweeping hundreds of miles in an instant. Within this range, whether it was the Xia army on the city wall or the Shu army soldiers in the distance, , couldn't help but have a cold war.
But after the chill, Xia Jun's soldiers returned to normal.
The soldiers of the Shu army seemed to have stepped into a cold and dark place. The aura of the underworld seeped through countless pores, making their faces pale and their surging momentum was suddenly suppressed.
After Lu Bu's Qi machine caused changes in vitality for hundreds of miles, a loud shout came from the Shu army.
There was a violent roar.
Centered on the Shu army's large banner, a burst of energy also appeared. This energy also swept in all directions, like exploding flames, instantly dispelling the abnormalities on the soldiers of the Shu army.
Two incomparably powerful Qi machines, dozens of miles apart, were constantly colliding and oscillating in the void.
A strong person in the heaven realm can perfectly master a kind of law of heaven and earth. Of course, the perfect mastery mentioned here refers to the complete understanding of a law, but the practitioner is still the user.
Only by going one step further, completely taking the law into your own hands, and becoming the master, can you break the limits of the world and step into the realm of immortals and gods.
At this time, the two of them just used the power of laws they had mastered slightly, and touched each other in the air, which was almost like ordinary people saying hello to each other.
But just this kind of "greeting", ordinary generals and colonels can't bear it.
"Who did I think it was? It turns out to be you, the thief!"
The Shu army did not continue to advance. The army formation separated, and several generals under the banner came out.
The leader among them is Zhang Fei, who is riding a black divine horse, wearing armor, with a leopard head and eyes, an angry beard, and holding a snake spear eight feet tall.
Just as Lu Bu guessed, the general in charge of this Eastern Expedition was Zhang Fei.
When Daxia began to mobilize troops to Jiangling, it seemed that the tacit understanding of the Chinese world was broken, and several other dynasties also began to mobilize troops and prepare for war.
Among them, the Qin Dynasty had to deal with two powerful enemies, the Western Han Dynasty and the Shu Han Dynasty. The supreme power Bai Qi came to serve as the commander-in-chief of the Qin Army in the east, and was in a stalemate with Wei Qing, the general of the Western Han Dynasty. Another strong man, Wang Jian, was responsible for defending and attacking Hanzhong. As for generals such as Meng Tian and Wang Ben, they are preparing for the Meng Yuan cavalry from the north who may move south...
Huo Qubing, the hussar general of the Western Han Dynasty, also had a heavy task and needed to guard against Li Tang... Therefore, Wei and Huo could not join forces. If Wei Qing and Huo Qubing combined, the chance of defeating Bai Qi was still high.
Unfortunately, the Western Han Dynasty could not specialize in one direction. In a short period of time, it could only maintain a balance of power with Da Qin.
In Hanzhong, among the many famous generals under Liu Bei, except for Zhuge Liang who was cautious and thorough in commanding troops, neither Guan Yu nor Zhang Fei were Wang Jian's opponents on the battlefield.
What I'm talking about here is not the opponent, but their commanding ability, not personal force.
The strongest point of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei is that they can break out of the formation and kill generals. Once they are unable to do so, their advantage will be weakened.
Can Guan Yu break out of the formation and kill Wang Jian? Not to mention others, even Guan Yu himself does not have this confidence. With Wang Jian's army command skills, although Guan Yu, a strong man in the heavenly realm, cannot be spared, he is still confident that he can only escape his body.
Liu Bei also knew Wang Jian's reputation, so he went north in person, taking Zhao Yun, a celestial god general, and Fazheng Jiang Wei to suppress Guan Yu.
In this case, the only general who can lead the troops out of Sichuan is Zhang Fei.
Lu Bu, Chen Gong, Tan Daoji and others could see that apart from Zhang Fei's powerful and unparalleled tyranny from a distance, the energy of the few people around him was quite normal.
Well, normal level nine.
Zhang Fei spurred his horse out, and saw Lu Bu through the air. The sneer on his face became even worse. The real Zhang Fei in history is not the image of a leopard with a head and eyes. However, in many illusory worlds, Zhang Fei generally has a leopard with a head and rings. Eyes, the state of a domineering and majestic warrior.
After relying on many beliefs to re-solidify, Zhang Fei is just like the image in the novel.
But no matter what the image is, the feelings between the three brothers Liu, Guan, and Zhang remain unchanged.
Zhang Fei's hostility towards Lu Bu has not changed.
If it weren't for Lu Bu, Liu Bei, the eldest brother, would have had time to secure Xuzhou. With Xuzhou as the foundation, he would have great hope in defeating Yuan Shu and seizing Yangzhou. After all, Sun Ce had not yet secured Jiangdong at that time. The so-called Sun family in Jiangdong had gone through three generations. Pictures are just empty words.
Unfortunately, everything ended when Lu Bu was stabbed in the back.
Among them, the key figure who caused Lu Bu to backstab and lose Xuzhou was none other than Zhang Fei... It was him who was drunk and was taken advantage of by the enemy.
When Zhang Fei thought of this, besides feeling ashamed, he also felt hatred towards Lu Bu.
"I really didn't expect that you, a slave with the third surname, would find yourself a father again. No, you can't call him a slave with the third surname now. He should be called a slave with the fourth surname!"
Zhang Fei's voice is like thunder, and his mouth is like a light. He is full of provocation and can easily arouse the anger of his opponents.
He succeeded.
When Lu Bu heard the words "family slave of the third surname", the whole Yiling City was shocked. His eyes were completely shrouded in a dark light, which was like fire. In an instant, the dark light flame enveloped his whole body.
Uh-huh!
Lu Bu's figure disappeared directly from the city wall, and Chitu Ma sensed his boundless anger and stepped through the air.
"Thief with ring eyes, I will cut you into pieces today..."
The world shook.
Chen Gong and others' vision went dark, and they saw that the entire sky was shrouded in darkness. Lu Bu's entire body, including the red rabbit and horse, were shrouded in ghostly fire, as if ghosts and gods descended from the netherworld.
The unparalleled fighting spirit seems to have transformed into an armored god and demon standing tall on the sky and the earth, waving weapons and killing immortal gods...
This move was created by Lu Bu after understanding the laws of ghosts and gods and combining the power of the laws with his own talent.
Kill the immortal and destroy the soul!
This move fully demonstrates the killing intent in the laws of ghosts and gods, and also contains the annihilating power of ghosts and gods against the souls and souls. If caught, even a fierce general of the same realm will have his soul severely damaged or even directly annihilated.
"Well done!"
Not to be outdone, Zhang Fei galloped out. His Wuzui horse was also a divine horse, but slightly weaker than the Red Rabbit horse.
The Zhangba Snake Spear in his hand shook, and a huge python that reached heaven and earth seemed to appear in the sky and earth. With unparalleled power, it collided with the beheaded armored gods and demons.
boom!
With thunder and thunder, the sky, which was originally covered by the power of ghosts and gods and became dark, was torn apart by the shock of the collision. Rays of sunlight penetrated the cracked sky, and light reappeared.
Yiling City, as well as the Shu army arrayed in the distance, felt the heaven and earth shaking at the same time.
This is not an illusion, but the earth is really shaking.
"Activate the magic circle immediately!"
On the city wall, Chen Gong was also shocked by the shocking power of the battle between the strong men in the heavenly realm. However, he quickly reacted and immediately gave the order. Tan Daoji, Wang Sengbian and others immediately mobilized the magic and military formations and barely stabilized the city.
But Chen Gong can feel it.
Even the fortified city could not stop the two fighting men from attacking with all their strength.
This is city-breaking strength.
At the same time, a general of the Shu army also kept giving orders to retreat first and form a formation with the big banner as the center. This general had a reddish face, sharp eyes, and held a long knife.
This is Wei Yan, the general of the Shu army...
