Chapter 306 Another Governor of Jiangdong died

Zhang Wu also knew that since he withdrew from Wuguan, Cao Cao would definitely withdraw to Xudu immediately, and then he would come here to help Sun Quan.Because Cao Cao didn't want Sun Quan to die, he wanted to keep Sun Quan to contain Jingzhou.

Calculated, the distance from Wuguan to here by myself is about the same as that of Cao Cao from Chang'an to here, but he traveled by water and land by himself and did not bring many soldiers, so he arrived earlier than Cao Cao.

Cao Jun has a large number of people, and the land journey is slow. He should have just returned to Xudu, and Cao Jun must be exhausted from running back and forth. If he rests for a few days, it will take more than a month to arrive.

In this month's time, it is a little tight to take down Moling and then attack Sun Quan's old nest, Wu County, and now the Jiangdong Army is facing a life-and-death battle, and it will definitely fight a trapped beast.The current Moling City is not as big as Nanjing in the later generations, nor is it as big as the Jianye City in history. As long as the Jiangdong navy is wiped out in one fell swoop, it should be easy to win, but Wu County is the old nest of the Sun family for three generations, so it must be difficult to fight.

But the situation has developed to the present, even if more soldiers are lost, the process must be accelerated, otherwise Cao Cao's army will not dare to cross the river after the arrival of Cao Cao's army, but it will also restrain a large number of his own troops.

Therefore, Zhang Wu convened a military meeting and ordered the navy to launch a fierce attack. At any cost, he must quickly wipe out the Jiangdong navy, completely control the Yangtze River waterway, and then gather a large army to attack Moling City.As long as Moling City is captured, Guan Yu will lead his army to defeat Sun Quan's reinforcements, and then Liu Pan will succeed in attacking Kuaiji, then Jiangdong will collapse in an instant.

Zhang Wu said: "Everyone, Jingzhou and Jiangdong have been at war for nearly 20 years. Countless people from Jingzhou died at the hands of the Sun family in Jiangdong. Today is the time for us to avenge this great revenge! May you all fight bravely to bring peace to Jiangdong! This battle After that, there will be only one invincible navy in the world, and that is our Jingzhou navy. From now on, our world will be above the river, and the land south of the Yangtze River will no longer have any rivals!"

All the generals were very excited and said in unison: "I would like to follow my lord and conquer Jiangdong!"

"Okay, the whole army goes out!"

The main force of the Jingzhou water army is advancing towards the Jiangdong water army. This time, the Jiangdong water army will not be annihilated.

In order to boost morale, Zhang Wu led the Wuwei Battalion to participate in the battle in person.Gan Ning himself served as the vanguard, Wenpin of the left army, Ding Feng of the right army, and Feng Xi of the rear army.

Cheng Pu also knew that it was the time of life and death. Although the troops were smaller than the Jingzhou army and the warships were smaller than the Jingzhou army, they had the heart to fight and the heart to fight to the death.Especially the veteran Cheng Pu, who has been the lord of the Sun family for three generations, vowed to live and die with Jiangdong.

Lu Meng and Ling led the army to fight against Gan Ning, Dong Xi and Zhu Heng fought against Ding Feng, Zhu Ran and Pan Zhang fought against Wenpin, and Cheng Pu, Lu Su and Lu Fan lived in the middle army.

This time, both sides are desperate. The Jingzhou navy wants to annihilate the Jiangdong navy in one fell swoop, and monopolize the river from then on.If the Jiangdong navy loses, it will cease to exist in the future.

Although the Jiangdong army resisted desperately and charged the Jingzhou navy, they were not as strong as the Jingzhou army after all. They were shot dead by the bow and crossbow phalanx on the ship and fell into the water.

The elite of the Jiangdong water army has almost lost. So far, the soldiers can't win. The iron chain boats on the opposite side are like big monsters on the water. Relying on their size, they just hit straight When they came over, all the troops were afraid.

Zhu Heng shouted loudly: "We are deeply favored by the lord. Today's matter is nothing more than death, so why not be afraid!" Then he led his soldiers towards the big ship where Ding Feng was.

Dong Xi personally beat drums and cheered with all the troops on the boat.

Before Zhu Heng rushed in front of Ding Feng, half of his soldiers were shot to death by the arrows that covered the sky and the sun.After rushing to the side of the Jingzhou Army warship, Zhu Heng and the soldiers climbed onto the Jingzhou Army warship to fight close to each other, but they were no match for the Jingzhou Army at all. wipe out.

Although Zhu Heng was more brave and killed many Jingzhou soldiers, he was shot three times and was finally hacked into the water by Ding Feng.

Afterwards, Ding Feng commanded the warship to ram Dong Xi. Seeing this, Dong Xi's soldiers rushed to grab the boat and escape for their lives.

Dong Xi shouted loudly with his sword: "Those who dare to escape will be killed immediately!" After speaking, Dong Xi killed more than a dozen deserters with his sword, but the Jingzhou army's large ship collided with Dong Xi's warship at once, and Dong Xi Immediately, he couldn't stand up, fell into the water, and was just about to swim out of the water, but was hit on the head by an oar, passed out, and then died in the water.

Gan Ning fought fiercely with Lü Meng and Ling Tong.Seeing Gan Ning, Ling Tong thought of his father's tragic death at the hands of this person, his eyes turned red, and his heart was filled with hatred, and thinking of being suppressed and beaten by the Jingzhou navy for the past few years, I am afraid that there will be no chance of revenge in the future. It's better to kill Gan Ning desperately, even death is worth it.

So Ling Tong led his troops to rush towards Gan Ning, but Lu Meng couldn't stop him, and he didn't listen to his loud calls to let him come back, so he urged the soldiers to speed up to meet him.

Seeing Ling Tong rushing towards him, Gan Ning was full of disdain, struggling to die, since you want to die, I will send you to reunite with your father!

"Fire the arrows!" Gan Ning ordered loudly.

Immediately, a rain of arrows flew towards Ling Tong's army from the iron chain ship, killing a large number of Jiangdong soldiers. Ling Tong raised his shield to block the rain of arrows, keeping his eyes on Gan Ning.

Gan Ning personally came to fight Ling Tong with a saber.

Although Ling Tong can be regarded as a fierce general, he is still much worse than Gan Ning. The soldiers who came with him were gradually wiped out by Jingzhou soldiers. After more than [-] rounds of fighting with Gan Ning, Tong and Gan Ning slashed his weapons and was captured alive by Gan Ning.

Gan Ning led his army to charge towards Lü Meng again, but Lü Meng couldn't hold back and had to retreat.

Seeing the defeat of the two armies in the central army, while Zhu Ran and Pan Zhang were also at a disadvantage, Lu Su said in desperation: "General Governor, it is better to withdraw the whole army into the city, and wait for the Lord to come to help. If we continue to fight, The navy is about to be wiped out!"

Cheng Pu said: "This is already the last position of the Jiangdong navy, where else can we retreat? Today's matter is nothing more than death. Cheng has fought all his life, why should he spare his life, and wait for me to fight Zhang Wu in person!"

Lu Su was very moved. Although this Cheng Pu was not afraid of death, but after all, the situation was not big, and he was far behind the Governor of Zhou.Your death in battle is minor, but the remaining tens of thousands of sailors are all gone.If you retreat to Moling, even if you withdraw from Dajiang temporarily, as long as you can defend Moling, the navy will have a chance to rebuild in the future, but if even Moling is lost, the Jiangdong navy will disappear completely.

Thinking of this, Lu Su didn't stop Cheng Pu, and watched Cheng Pu rush towards the battlefield with his soldiers.

Cheng Pu's army happened to meet Ding Feng's army. Cheng Pu led a group of personal guards who had been fighting with him for many years to fight hard, but was shot into the water by Ding Feng's arrow in the chaotic army, and never came up again.

Lu Su sighed secretly, and then issued an order in the Central Army to order the entire Jiangdong navy to retreat.Originally, the Jiangdong navy couldn't stand it anymore, and several generals died, but now even the governor Cheng Pu died, and the Chinese army ordered to retreat again, so they retreated and ran for their lives.

Lu Su ordered the entire army to retreat to Moling City as the deputy governor, preparing to hold on to the city and wait for reinforcements.
