The revival of Shu Han

Chapter 378 Yongan Turtle Flow ([-])
"It's a great crime for the last general to lose his troops and lose his general. Please punish him with the governor."

Didn't everyone shout 'Little Day' yesterday?Will this know that he is called the governor?
Looking at Gu Li kneeling in front of him, Lu Kang was extremely annoyed.Without him, this loss greatly exceeded his psychological expectations.

The Yangtze River is in Sichuan. After accepting the Minjiang River from Yibin, the width of the river is generally between 600 and 800 meters.After passing Yong'an, the surface of the river shrunk rapidly.In Qutang Gorge, the river surface is about 400 to 500 meters.Wu Gorge is the narrowest, with an average length of less than 200 meters.When we arrived at Xiling Gorge, we slowly relaxed.All the way out of Yichang, the surface of the river suddenly became extremely wide.Can reach thousands of meters.

Counterweight trebuchet, when projecting objects over 100 catties.The general range is about 200 to 300 meters.Due to the steep mountains on both sides of the Qutang Gorge, the catapults of the Yong'an defenders on the shore could not be set along the river bank, but rather far away from the river bank.Therefore, the trebuchets of the Yong'an garrison could not completely cover the entire river.

Therefore, in the first battle that night, Yang Zong, the commander of the Yongan Navy, first used fireboats to force the Soochow Navy to move closer to the two banks, and then used the trebuchets on the shore to strike: Stone projectiles can be much heavier than a capstan catapult mounted on a ship.If the wooden boat was hit unfortunately, it would be a real 'one shot'.

Throughout the night of the 21st, Soochow was sunk with hundreds of ships of all sizes.Nearly 3000 soldiers were lost.Although some of the 3000 people will definitely swim to the shore.But this is winter, and the water temperature of the Yangtze River is only a few degrees.After soaking in such river water for most of the night, even if he wasn't caught by Shu thieves, he would still catch a cold, right?A cold in this era is not a minor illness, and it is possible to directly destroy an army if it is not done well!
So looking at Gu Li, Lu Kang really wanted to stab this guy to death.

However, such an idea is just a thought.The Lu family and the Gu family are both big families in Wu County, and the relationship between them is so complicated that neither of the two parties can fully explain it clearly.Among other things, this bastard named Gu Li, whose younger brother is named Gu Qian, married his own daughter a while ago!

Therefore, only the board was raised high and lowered gently.

"Crime generals will respect etiquette, damage soldiers and generals, and damage the country's prestige. Suspend all duties and go to the rear team to be responsible for escorting food and grass."

"Thank you for the grace of the governor not to kill."

After waving his hand, let this guy get out.Lu Kang recruited Zhang Zheng: "My sons, what happened to the battle last night?"

"Captain, the general is not very clear. The general originally estimated that he would be ten miles away from Ji Xun's fleet, and he would have time to respond in case of Ji Xun's defeat. I didn't expect that Ji Xun would lose too quickly. Wait until the end When Jiang saw them, he felt that hundreds of ships were coming in a chaotic swarm, almost dispersing the fleet of the last general."

"This stick! That's all, the whole team, Bendu will go and watch it in person."

After all, it is the first water army, and it is the strongest water warfare commander in this era.Under Lu Kang's command, the Soochow Navy quickly completed its formation reorganization. Thousands of ships sailed up the mighty upstream, and soon arrived seven or eight miles downstream of Yong'an City.

After Yong'an City came into Lu Kang's sight, the entire Soochow fleet took a deep breath.

On the nearly vertical cliffs on both sides of the bank, there is a trebuchet at a slightly gentler place, and there are about [-] soldiers guarding each trebuchet.In the far upstream, hundreds of warships of the Jihan Navy lined up in a row, completely blocking the river.Behind these warships is Yong'an City, which has been repeatedly built and turned into another super cement bastion.Not only that, there is also a smaller but very pure bastion on the other side of Yong'an City on the north bank of the Yangtze River.What's even more exaggerated is that right behind Ji Han's fleet, between the two castles, there are actually three huge chains across the middle of the river.

Are you going to be so perverted? !
After watching the deployment of Ji Han's army, Lu Kang was almost desperate.

But the reason why a famous general is a famous general is not only that he can arrange troops and make a lot of tricks.Perseverance is also an essential quality.Therefore, Lu Kang had no intention of retreating.

"Here's an order to send out a small boat with a white flag and send a message to the Han army. I would have invited Sun Dinglie, Governor of Yong'an in the Shu Dynasty, to come out and answer."

But the boat creaked and rowed out, and was blocked by the boat sent by Ji Han not long after.

"Captain, the Shu thief said, if you want to fight, you can fight, if you don't fight, you can... um, if you don't fight, you can get out. There are so many nonsense to talk about."

"Hey~~! This is Sun Dinglie!" No matter what his family background was, Lu Kang was also angry at this moment.But good generals will never mobilize troops out of anger, so Lu Kang was slightly taken aback and then issued an order: "The whole army will retreat to Wu County in Jianping County, and we will rest there for the time being."

"promise!"

……

On the other side, Ji Han Yong'an Dudu Mansion.

"Sun Dinglie, look, look, Wu Gou actually retreated like this! I told you, don't make the defense so tight. If you do this, the enemy will not see hope, and will not come to fight. In this way, our Where is the victory?"

"Hehe, Zhongyuan, I'm very grateful for your help from thousands of miles from Chengdu. It's just that my brother gave me the order to guard Yong'an and not let Wu Gou go deep into the hinterland of Yizhou. I only aim at this, other things, I haven't thought about it."

"It's not too late to think about it. How about we pretend to be defeated first, and then lure the enemy to go deep? Didn't you also arrange trebuchets in the upper reaches of Yong'an? Let me tell you, you shouldn't be on both sides of the gorge so early. The trebuchet is exposed."

"Hehehe..." Scratching his graying hair, Sun Gang, who is in his 30s, smiled naively: "I, Sun Gang, used to be a young man who didn't work hard when I was in Chengdu. When I arrived in Fuling I have only been a swineherd for seven years. My brothers lead troops out to fight, and I usually stay at home. So I am useless in terms of military strategy. The reason why my brothers use me as the governor of Yongan is because It’s just because I like to be cautious and cautious. Brother Zhongyuan, who is Lu Youjie? Even a famous general like Chen Qian has been fooled by him. How dare I, Sun Gang, fight with him? Being a man is a matter of self-knowledge. I know exactly how capable I am. I also know exactly what I should do. I am here, not seeking to inflict heavy damage on the enemy, but just guarding the east gate of Yizhou and preventing Wugou from entering."

"Hey, okay, okay. It's really bad luck for me to hold Hiroshi. I can't get any decent military exploits anywhere."

In the days that followed, the development of the plot was a bit funny.

Lu Kang was like a prostitute who wanted to seduce Sun Gang, and tried every means to tease Sun Gang to send troops.

What kind of fleet attack, just a little contact will be defeated, send people to climb the cliff to attack the trebuchet, and land on the slightly flat shore between Wushan County and Yong'an Palace to make a land attack posture. Fire ah... blah blah blah.But Sun Gang didn't pay attention at all: it's just a line anyway, if you attack me, hit back.If you lose, I will never chase after you.Anyway, I'm stuck here, if you want to continue to go upstream, you must first defeat me thoroughly.

This guy has completely used the trick that Sima Yi used to deal with Zhuge Liang back then to the extreme.

What's worse than Zhuge Liang is that Lu Kang is worse than Zhuge Liang. This Sun Dinglie has no demeanor of a family member at all.He completely disobeyed the rule that the two countries do not fight each other without killing each other.In short, attack when your ship is close to my position.As a result, Lu Kang didn't even have the chance to give Sun Gang a woman's clothes.It can only be that Sun Gang was given nicknames such as tortoise and bastard within the Soochow Army.

"Ah~~~!" No matter how good his temper was, no matter how profound his family background was, he could not help Lu Kang conceal his inner anger.In the middle of the night on January 270, [-] AD, after a heart-piercing roar sounded from the core of the Soochow Fleet, Lu Kang beat the Jujiang Drum.

"My lords, I really didn't expect that this Sun Dinglie would be so cowardly! Shameless! Despicable! If the Yong'an garrison does not enter the gorge to fight our army, our army will not be able to break through the gorge. Sitting here for a long time, the army food and so on It’s easy to say, but this morale is really worrying. Therefore, we must find another way.”

"What is the governor's plan?"

"My idea is to divide the troops. Some stay here to contain the Yong'an Army of the Shu thieves. The other part goes down the river, enters Fengshui from Dongting Lake, and then goes upstream along Fengshui to Qianling County in Wuling County."

"What does the governor mean, Fuling County, where the Shu thieves were attacked?"

"Of course, most of the troops of the Shu rebels are concentrated in Yongliang. The defenders in Yong'an, after nearly a month of fighting, should be no less than [-]. Therefore, the defenders in Fuling County should not be too many. Besides Well, this time His Majesty ordered me to wait for the attack on Shu. Originally, after taking down Yong’an, he would attack Fuling County along the Wujiang River. Since this road doesn’t work, I should take another road.”

"The governor's intention is very good. But who will stay here? How many soldiers and horses will the governor bring with him when he goes to take Fuling County?"

"From here to Qianling, there is basically a waterway. But after passing Qianling, there is the Wuling Mountains. The reason there is completely unable to supply the army. What the governor means is [-] soldiers, plus [-] civilians to transport the army. .As for the guards here, General Sun, may he sit here on behalf of Lu?"

"Sun Yi takes orders!"

"Shan, wait for the governor to take Fuling, and then go out along the Wujiang River. At that time, the governor will have to take a good look at how wonderful this sun turtle's face is!"
