Chapter 640: The Battle of Changguo


To the northeast outside the Changguo Sea, a fleet of sailors is drifting here.

On the flagship of the sailor, Zhou Tao is looking at the map of Changguo Island, this map is very rough, it has only been drawn in recent days, Zhou Tao can be said to know nothing about the situation on the island, only knows how many garrisons there are on the island, Zhou Tao has not moved for so many days, in fact, he is waiting for the reconnaissance report of the exploration ship.

"The general's current situation is basically clear, the Song army has stationed 50,000 sailors and 300 warships on Changguo Island, and there is only one dock of the Song army's sailors, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack in the south of Changguo Road," the deputy general said to Zhou Tao.

"It's the same as not saying."

Zhou Tao said impatiently; "It's been days, we can't wait any longer; Get started tonight. ” "General, the last general suggested attacking with fire and burning all the ships of the Song army, so that the Song army's sailors were trapped on the island and left to be slaughtered by us."

"Isn't it a pity that all three hundred warships were burned?"

Zhou Tao said meaningfully.

"What do you mean, General?"

"You see, from the south, there are only two waterways for the Song army to leave the Changguo Road, one is to the east and the other is to the west; We will do this, you and I will each lead fifty warships to flank the Song army from the east and west, and we will block all the Song warships in the harbor before they anchor, and then send troops to the island to annihilate all the Song troops on the island; I don't believe that Lao Tzu's 10,000 elites can't destroy the 50,000 sailors of the Song army."

"The general is wise, and he obeys the general's orders" After the battle plan was drawn up, the two of them each led half of the warships to start the action, because at this time the night has been generalized, the Xia warship is marching in the dark, in addition to the light official system, so the Xia warship is not easy to be found, of course, there was an accident in the middle, a warship unfortunately hit the rock, Zhou Tao decisively left a boat to salvage the soldiers who fell into the water, and the rest of the warships continued to set off.

Finally, before dawn, the fleet of the Xia Army Navy arrived outside the port of Changguo, at this time the soldiers of the Song Army and the Navy Division on the island were still asleep, and the two ships of the Xia Army Navy Division came to the port of Changguo unconsciously, all this was so smooth, even Zhou Tao was a little unconvinced, since it arrived so smoothly, of course Zhou Tao would not let go of this great opportunity.

After the Xia warships blocked the channel of Changguo Port, they immediately carried out landing operations from both sides, and when the first batch of landing troops of the Xia army rushed to the coast, they were finally discovered by the Song army guarding, but it was too late, and the Xia army's offensive was very fierce and soon entered the camp of the Song army's Changguo Naval Division.

Although the Song army occupies an absolute advantage in terms of troops, but due to the lack of combat experience, the command of the Jiamiao River is unfavorable, the Song army Changguo naval army is defeated and retreated, when the sun rises, Zhou Tao has led the Xia army to occupy the entire Changguo wharf and the naval division camp.

After dawn, the deputy general walked up to Zhou Tao and said: "The generals and brothers have not rested for a day and a night, do you want to take a rest first and continue to exterminate the remnants of the Song army." ” At this time, Zhou Tao was covered in blood, looked at the brothers who were panting all around, and said, "Let's rest first, but we must pay attention to vigilance to prevent the Song army from counterattacking." ” "Yes, the last will understand" On the other side, Miao Jiang retreated to the northeast of Changguo with the remnants of the soldiers, at this time Miao Jiang still had nearly 30,000 sailors around him, but at this time Miao Jiang had been scared by the Xia army, and Miao Jiang also hid ten secret warships in the northeast of Changguo Island, which was the back road left by Miao Jiang for himself, but I didn't expect it to be used this time.

"Marshal, what should we do now, if you let Your Majesty know, we were wiped out by a group of pirates, and Your Majesty has to pick our skins."

A Song army general asked Miao Jiang.

Miao Jiang said angrily: "Who said that we were defeated by pirates, obviously we were defeated by the Xia army's sailors, Changguo Island can no longer stay, you will immediately return to Hangzhou with this commander to reorganize the army, and this commander will write a chapter to report to Your Majesty, understand?"

"I'll understand, handsome and wise" In fact, Miao Jiang didn't know that it was the Xia Army Sailor who attacked him, and Miao Jiang also knew the legend of the Skull Banner, until now Miao Jiang thought that he was attacked by a group of pirates, and the soldiers of the Changguo Navy Division looked at it this way from top to bottom, since the camp and the warship were lost, there was no point in staying, so Miao Jiang came to the secret dock and prepared to escape.

However, there were ten ships on the sea, and the remnants of the Song army had nearly 30,000 impossible to transport over, so in order to compete for the position on the ship, the Song army soldiers fought with each other, many Song army sailors did not die under the knife of the Xia army, but died under the knife of their comrades, Miao Jiang ran away without fighting, leaving tens of thousands of troops and 300 warships to flee to Hangzhou, this time it was cheap Zhou Tao.

What Zhou Tao didn't expect was that one of his adventures would get such a big gain, and the warship power under Zhou Tao's command suddenly expanded by three times; What Zhou Tao didn't expect was still to come, the Song army on the island quickly surrendered to the Xia army automatically, this time the Xia army didn't even have to search the island, and the remnants of the Song army carried their weapons and honestly knelt outside the camp occupied by the Xia army.

"General, go and take a look, it's a big deal, the remnants of the Song army have blocked the camp."

The deputy general ran to Zhou Tao's side and said.

"I didn't expect this Miao Jiang to be really capable, and he actually dared to lead the army to fight back."

Zhou Tao said viciously.

"It's not a general, it's a group of Song soldiers kneeling outside our camp, holding weapons and not knowing what to do" "What's the matter" Zhou Tao thought that his ears had heard it wrong, and after reacting, Zhou Tao said: "Let's go outside and take a look." ” Zhou Tao almost didn't freak himself out at all, and one after another, the soldiers of the Song Army came here to kneel down and surrender to the Xia Army.

All the weapons and armor of the Song army were confiscated, and then a place was found and imprisoned, and the officers and non-commissioned officers were separated as before.

Later, through understanding Zhou Tao, I understood why the Song army collectively surrendered to the Xia army, because there was no food in the rest of the island except for the Changguo Naval Battalion, and the people on the entire island had already been migrated to the mainland, and since it was built here, there was no large-scale expansion, but only a Changguo port and a large camp were built; The grain and grass stored in the entire Changguo camp were enough for 50,000 troops for three months, and there were also a large number of weapons, armor and other baggage on the island.

"Send someone immediately to ask the prince for reinforcements and ask for more troops."

Zhou Tao said to the adjutant general.

"General, this Changguo Island has been defeated, why do you still ask the prince for help?"

the deputy general asked puzzled.

"Changguo is defeated, but there are still 40,000 Song troops on this island, and we will continue to attack next, this force is already insufficient, so we can only ask the prince for help."

Zhou Tao complained; "Who would have thought that there would be so much in this battle" The second update:
