The Super Summoning System of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 805 The Battle of Chibi
After everyone saw the ceremony, Liu Bian explained the affairs of Jingzhou. Now Liu Bian only occupies Nanjun, and there are not many things.

"Zhao Kuangyin has joined Sun Ce, and the Jiangdong navy is stationed in the Shaxian area, confronting our navy. I will set off for the Xiakou area tomorrow, Jiang Gan. I heard that you are famous for your wit and debate. Come with me!" Liu Bian Looking at the ministers below, he said.

Jiang Gan was quick-witted and quickly understood Liu Bian's purpose for bringing him, and he clapped his hands and said, "No!"

As for the others in Jingzhou, Liu Bian did not bring them with him, and the most capable brother Kuaiyue was only good.It's not as good as Liu Bian's three giants, Fang Xuanling, Xie An, and Guo Jia.

The next day, Liu Bian led his troops from Jiangling to the Xiakou area.

There were [-] elite Han soldiers accompanying them. Originally, Liu Bian brought [-] elites from Chang'an, plus Zhang Liao Wancheng's [-], and Liu Yu's [-] from Wancheng, making a total of [-].After just a few battles, although the Han army wiped out a lot of enemies, although they couldn't reach it, they killed one thousand enemies and suffered eight hundred losses.

But after the battle of Changbanpo, there were only more than 6 elites left in the Han army. Liu Bian took the whole and took only [-], and let other disabled soldiers and horses rest in Jiangling.

As for the Jingzhou infantry, there were still [-] soldiers. They didn't participate in the war at all, and there were no casualties.However, soldiers are expensive and elites are not expensive, and the combat effectiveness of Jingzhou infantry is really low, so it is useless to take them to the front line.Liu Bian was placed in Xiangyang and Jiangling, but was not taken to the Xiakou front line.

The generals accompanying the army included Liu Yu, Yang Yansi, Yao Xing, Yang Miaozhen, Dian Wei, Yu Juluo, Zhang Liao and others.The staff officers accompanying the army were Xie An, Fang Xuanling, Guo Jia, Jiang Gan and others.

There were no warships in Jiangling anymore, Liu Bian's army went all the way down the river from Jiangling, and Chibi also sent water troops upstream to meet them.

On the second day, Xie Xuan's navy came from Chibi and met Liu Bian's army at the Public Security Bureau.In this way, Liu Bian's army turned to Chibi by water.

Chibi is located dozens of miles behind Xiakou, Xiakou is the front line, and Chibi is equivalent to the rear base camp and headquarters.

At the same time, Chibi is equivalent to the second line of defense. If Xiakou is lost, the army can retreat to Chibi to ensure nothing is lost.

After Liu Bian arrived in Chibi, he led his generals to Xiakou to visit the soldiers.

Now in the direction of Xiakou, there are more than 13 Jingzhou navy and [-] Han navy.Including the [-] elite Han army behind Chibi, there are a total of [-] soldiers and horses.

As for the Jiangdong Navy, there are [-] sailors. In a simple naval battle, the [-] troops brought by Liu Bian are difficult to use. However, only [-] Han Navy sailors can compete with the Jiangdong Navy. .But the number of people is too small.

As for the [-] Jingzhou Navy, it looks like it has a lot of troops, but it is actually a show, and it will not be of much use if it is really fighting.Therefore, in terms of the strength of the navy, the Han army will still suffer.

Fortunately, it was Liu Bian who led his troops south in time, otherwise Zhao Kuangyin would have been allowed to wreak havoc in Nanyang, cutting off Liu Yu's retreat.Maybe it's really going to be a big mess.

Liu Bian led the generals to Xiakou Shuizhai, and Fu Youde led Gan Ning, Cai Mao, Zhang Yun and others to meet them.

"The last general is waiting to meet His Majesty!"

"Everyone is free from courtesy!" Liu Bian waved his hands to log in to the water village, helped Fu Youde, Gan Ning and other old generals laughed and said, "It's been so many years, all the generals are still in high spirits, I'm so relieved!"

Several people recounted the old days, while Cai on one side was in a hurry and wanted to introduce himself, but he was afraid of arousing Liu Bian's interest, so he looked at Liu Bian from time to time, impatiently.Seen by Liu Yu and other caring people, I just felt it was funny for a while.

"Your Majesty, it's windy on both sides. If you want to reminisce about the old days, let's sit down in the village!" Cai Mao couldn't wait, and held back for a long time to say these words.

It was already May at this time, the weather was already a little bit hot, and the breeze on the river surface was just to relieve the summer heat. After Cai Mao finished saying this, he felt a little regretful in his heart.

"Oh? It's cool on the river, you don't need to enter the village, you can just hold a banquet on the deck!" Liu Bian laughed.

Only then did Fu Youde think of Cai Mao, and recommended to Liu Bian: "Your Majesty, I will recommend you. This is General Cai Mao, General of the Jingzhou Navy, and this is General Zhang Yun..."

"I often hear about Wenpin, why don't you see him?" Liu Bian asked the crowd deliberately to suppress Cai Mao.

Cai broke out in cold sweat on his forehead, and cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, Wenpin took refuge in Zhao Kuangyin as early as a month ago. Otherwise, our army would not have lost the front-line water village and let Jiangdong soldiers and horses enter Jiangxia."

"There is such a thing!" Liu Bian's face darkened slightly.

Cai Mao was frightened, lest Liu Bian be punished.

"That's all, Wenpin's surrender has nothing to do with you, let's go in!" Liu Bian waved his hands and walked into the water village, but the gloomy face like water made Cai Mao tremble with fear.

Behind Xie An, Liu Yu, Fang Xuanling, Guo Jia and other wise people looked at each other and smiled, and naturally knew Liu Bian's intention of fake anger.

This Cai Mao is too jumpy, he doesn't want to show himself all the time, Liu Bian's fake anger can deter Cai Mao, let him keep his own place, and prevent him from jumping around in front of him.

A group of people entered the water village and boarded a building search boat.

The building boat is huge, about three stories high.Standing on the building boat, the breeze is blowing, which makes people feel refreshed.

The second floor couldn't accommodate so many generals and schools, so everyone set up a banquet on the deck to welcome Liu Bian.After drinking for three rounds, Cai Mao was really cautious and didn't dare to say a word.

After the banquet, Liu Bian looked at the crowd and said, "Everyone, I don't know what plan you have to help me drive out the Jiangdong bandits?"

Fu Youde cupped his hands and went out: "Your Majesty, there are now [-] people in the Jiangdong navy, and troops have been mobilized from within to enter Jiangxia's control area. Even the four counties in Jingnan have been occupied by troops. Our army only has [-] navy, and Chibi Although Fang Xiang has an army of [-], none of them know how to swim. If there is a big battle, they may not be able to help them. Therefore, the current consideration is not how to defeat Jiangdong, but to train the soldiers' water skills as soon as possible. If so, our army will be invincible."

"Train the water skills of the soldiers? I wonder how long it will take?" Liu Bian asked in a deep voice.

Fu Youde clasped his hands and replied: "Most of the [-] soldiers and horses behind the Red Cliff come from Nanyang area, and they are a little familiar with water. Besides, Nanyang also belongs to the south, and the soldiers will not be acclimatized. As long as the doctors are careful to prevent it, our army The soldiers are still in good health. So give the general half a year, and the general will be able to let the [-] soldiers behind on this warship walk on the ground."

The most feared thing in war is disease, especially the labor expedition. For example, northerners come to the south to fight, and southerners go to the north to fight.In this way, it is easy to become acclimatized and infected with diseases. After the soldiers die, improper handling will cause the spread of diseases.

Expeditions may occur for those who are not acclimatized to the water and soil, and warfare may also occur for those who do not understand water.For example, if Liu Bian's soldiers and horses are forced on the warship, they will get sick, have diarrhea, vomiting, and dizziness, and will break out of uncontrollable diseases in the long run.

In the Battle of Chibi in history, Cao Cao's army went south, and most of them were soldiers from Hebei and the Central Plains.Disease soon broke out, leading to a defeat at the Battle of Chibi.

Now Liu Bian's situation is better than Cao Cao's. Most of the naval forces are from Nanyang, and most of the remaining troops are from Nanyang.Although soldiers do not know water, they will only experience seasickness at most.
