"Hehe, you really think about it well, but haven't you noticed that more than half a month ago, Tai Shici and Huainan Lusu, who originally went south together, and 20,000 foot soldiers have disappeared," Li Xing said with a smile.The concubines have been wondering, but weren't they sent to Dajiangkou to garrison" Diao Chan asked with a frown."
Hehe, Hefei is three or four days away from the normal march of the Jiangkou, and the foot soldiers in Jiangdong are far inferior to our elites, how dare they cross the river and fight with us, so generally only need to send a sentry and the sailors to patrol along the river, but they have another task, now, they should be about to get to Jianye City" "What is this How is this done Now the sailors of Jiangdong are cruising in the river day and night, and the south bank is full of beacon towers for thousands of miles, How were General Taishi and Lu Junshi able to survive the blockade and reach the Jianye City in the rear of Jiangdong, did they fly over?"
Diao Chan stopped his movements in some surprise, and Cai Yan next to him also stopped playing the piano, opened his mouth slightly, and looked at Li Xing with surprised and questioning eyes."
Hehe" Li Xing smiled: "It's not a surprising way to say it, I just let the trained 50,000 sailors take Tai Shici's army to detour through the rear of Sun Jian's army from the sea for a sneak attack, and now in order to guard against us and the Shanyue people who are about to move, Jiangdong has been fully mobilized, and Jianye in the rear does not have many troops left behind, if everything goes well, now Sun Jian is afraid that he will get the news." ”Li Xing's method is not surprising, in the eyes of modern people, crossing the sea and landing is very common, but in the eyes of people in this era, they do not have enough understanding of the sea, and they will not realize that the danger will also come from the sea, and for this raid, from the time when Sun Cao Liu's coalition army was defeated in Dongjun, Li Xing began to train sailors, and he had already begun to prepare.In the past few years, from building sea ships, training sailors, to preparing routes, whether it is Li Xing training sailors, or spies in Jiangdong to collect climate and terrain data, countless efforts have been made, using catapults to defeat the Jiangdong naval army, and at the same time the army crossing the sea is in the back, the two-pronged approach, Jiangdong will inevitably collapse quickly, which is why Li Xing decided to take Sun Jian first, instead of dealing with Yuan Shao, who has damaged his vitality, it is he who is sure to take Jiangdong down.Li Xing's expectation was good, at this time, Sun Jian's camp on the south bank of the Yangtze River, Sun Jian also got the herald of the fast horse asking for help, he landed Tai Shici from the seaside, attacked the rear, and read the news of Jianye's urgency carefully several times, and then reluctantly let himself accept this fact.At this time, he also hurriedly summoned all the generals and generals, and then told the news that shocked all the generals present.The people who were able to be summoned by Sun Jian to discuss at this urgent moment were all middle figures in Sun Jian's army, including Huang Gai, Han Dang and others who fought the world with Sun Jian of the older generation, as well as young generals such as Sun Ce, Zhou Yu, Gan Ning, and Lu Meng, it can be said that Jiangdong was under the control of these people, but after seeing the news, the needles in the camp could be heard, and all the people were immersed in a huge shock, and they didn't know what to do.And it was Sun Jian who was the first to speak: "This Li Xing is really extraordinary, as soon as he makes a move, I will no longer exist in the Yangtze River moat, now there are only 3,000 ordinary soldiers in Jianye City to guard, look at this information, the enemy army who came to at least tens of thousands of troops, this news came the day before yesterday, now Jianye should have fallen, the army's supplies and grain all rely on Jianye to operate, there are only less than ten days of grain in the army, what are your good strategies to solve this crisis" The people present couldn't help but sigh in their hearts, and after a while, Zhou Yu suddenly stood up and said: " You don't have to worry, it's not yet the time when the mountains and rivers are exhausted, although the news says that tens of thousands of troops have crossed the sea, but you should know more or less about the risks of sailing in the sea, so if my expectations are correct, the number of troops coming is only twenty or thirty thousand, and Li Xing's army is still blocked by our sailors on the north bank of the Yangtze River, as long as we wait for the sailors to hold the banks of the Yangtze River, and then return to the division to build a business with all our troops, and annihilate the attacking enemy army, this crisis can be resolved. ”When Sun Jian heard this, he also nodded with satisfaction: "Okay, that's right, Gong Jin really deserves to be the minister of my Jiangdong, since this is the case, then you and Gong Fu will lead the naval army to hold here, and I will personally command the army to return to the division and definitely recapture Jianye." ”And as soon as Sun Jian made arrangements here, he suddenly got the news that Li Xing's army came to provoke with a big attack, and now they are trying to attack Jiangdong Water Village.After Sun Jian got the news, he immediately said: "This must be Li Xing who got the news, so he will cooperate with the containment of our army, and you will lead the navy to meet the attack, and you will definitely let this Li Xing know the strength of my Jiangdong navy." ”Huang Gai promised: "Lord, please rest assured, everything is wrapped in my Huang Gongfu's body" After speaking, Huang Gai led the naval army to meet the attack.Soon, on the river, two large fleets have been in formation, because of the terrain restrictions, both sides did not take out all the naval forces, but at least they also took out nearly half of the naval forces, and the result of this battle will affect the situation of Li Xing's expedition to Jiangdong this time.Li Xing stood on the flagship in the center, watching the stern fighting ships slowly sail past the left and right, this was the first water battle he had personally experienced.However, this does not mean that Li Xing does not understand the Jiangdong naval army, Li Xing has always paid attention to intelligence, so he has a profound image of the Jiangdong giant ship described in the intelligence.He still clearly remembered that the largest shipship flagship in Jiangdong was five stories high, could accommodate more than 3,000 people, and even galloped horses on the wide deck.At this time, Li Xing's own flagship, although it was known as the largest warship in his own navy, was only three stories high, and its volume was only about half of the Jiangdong flagship.It's not that Li Xing's craftsmen can't make it, but that the center of gravity of such a building ship is too high, so it can't withstand the wind and waves at all, and it is not taken for Li Xing's army, which aims at the navy, but because of this boat and experience problems, Li Xing's navy and Jiangdong navy are in a disadvantageous state when they compete on the Yangtze River.More than 100 small warships equipped with ramming horns and covered with cowhides were located in the front of the fleet, and the central fleet composed of more than 400 fighting ships and Fuchong protected the inner layer of the square array with more than 100 warships equipped with catapults
