"There is no great crime to lose troops and lose generals at the end. Please ask the governor to punish him."

Didn’t I call “Young Festival” yesterday? Now I know I call the Governor?

Looking at Gu Li kneeling in front of him, Lu Kang was extremely angry. Nothing else, the loss this time exceeded his psychological expectations.

The Yangtze River is in Sichuan. After receiving the Minjiang River from Yibin, the width of the river is generally between 600 and 800 meters. After passing Yong'an, the river surface shrinks rapidly. In Qutang Gorge, the river surface is about 400 to 500 meters. Wu Gorge is the narrowest, with an average of less than 200 meters. When it comes to Xiling Gorge, it slowly relaxes. Until it leaves Yichang, the river surface suddenly becomes extremely wide and can reach thousands of meters.

The counterweight catapult is usually about 200 to 300 meters when it is projected with objects of more than 100 kilograms. Because the mountains on both sides of Qutang Gorge are steeper, the catapults on the shore of the Yong'an defenders cannot be set up along the river bank, but are quite a distance from the river bank. Therefore, the catapults on the Yong'an defenders cannot completely cover the entire river surface.

Therefore, in the first battle that night, Yang Zong, the commander of the Yong'an Navy, first used a fire boat to force the Eastern Wu navy to move closer to the two sides, and then used a trencher on the shore to strike: the stone bombs shot by the counterweight trencher can be much heavier than the winch trencher installed on the ship. If the wooden boat is unfortunately hit, it will be the real "one shot into the soul".

On the whole night of the 21st, the Eastern Wu Dynasty was sunk hundreds of ships of all sizes and large and small, and nearly 3,000 soldiers were lost. Although some of the 3,000 people must have swam 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 a long time, even if you are not caught by the Sichuan thieves, you will catch a cold? The cold in this era is not a minor illness. If it is not done well, it is possible to directly destroy an army!

So looking at Gu Li, Lu Kang really wanted to stab this guy to death with one knife.

However, this idea is just to think about it. The Lu family and the Gu family are both major families in Wujun. The relationship between them is so complicated that neither of the two parties involved can fully explain it. Not to mention anything else, this bastard named Gu Li, his younger brother is Gu Qian, and he married his daughter a few days ago!

So, only the board was raised high and gently put down.

"The general Gu Li was punished, and the general was damaged, and the national prestige was damaged. All positions were suspended and he went to the back team to be responsible for escorting food and grass."

"Thank you for not killing the governor."

After waved his hand and told this guy to get out, Lu Kang called Zhang Zheng: "Zizhong, what happened last night's battle?"

"Governor, Mo General is not very clear. Mo General originally estimated that he had ten miles away from Ji Xun's fleet. If Ji Xun was defeated, it would be too late to pick him up. Unexpectedly, Ji Xun was defeated too quickly. When Mo General saw them, he felt hundreds of ships rushed in a mess, and almost dispersed the Mo General's fleet."

"This guy! Forget it, the whole team, I will go and watch it myself."

After all, it was the first naval army and the strongest water battle commander of this era. Under the command of Lu Kang, the Eastern Wu naval army quickly completed the formation reorganization, and thousands of ships rushed up against the current and soon arrived seven or eight miles downstream of Yong'an City.

After Yong'an City entered Lu Kang's sight, the entire Eastern Wu fleet took a breath of air conditioning.

On the nearly vertical cliffs on both sides, there is a trencher on the slightly smoother place. There are about twenty soldiers guarding each trencher. In the upper reaches of the distance, hundreds of Jihan Navy warships lined up, completely blocking the river surface. Behind these warships, there has been repeated construction and become another super cement castle. Not only that, there is also a smaller but very pure castle towering across the bank of Yong'an City on the north bank of the Yangtze River. What's more exaggerated is that directly behind the Jihan fleet, there are three huge chains across the river between the two castles.

Do you want to be so perverted?!

After reading Ji Han's defense, he was almost desperate.

However, the reason why famous generals are famous generals is that in addition to being able to arrange troops and set up formations and making many plans, perseverance is also a necessary quality. Therefore, Lu Kang did not mean to retreat.

"Transfer an order to send a small boat first, take a white flag, and go to the Han army to pass on the message. I will invite Sun Dinglie, the Yong'an governor of the Shu Dynasty, to come out and answer."

But the boat was squeaking and rowing, and it was blocked by the boat sent by Ji Han.

"Governor, the thief of Shu said, if you want to fight, if you don't fight, if you don't fight,... uh, if you don't fight, you'll get out. There's not so much nonsense to say."

"Hey~~! This Sun Dinglie!" Because of the origin of family education, Lu Kang was also angry at this moment. But the good generals would never raise troops because of anger, so Lu Kang was a little surprised and issued an order: "The entire army retreated to Wu County in Jianping County, and will be repaired there for the time being."

"promise!"

...

On the other side, Ji Han Yong'an Governor's Office.

"Sun Dinglie, look at it, Wu Gou retreated like this! I told you, don't make the defense so tightly. If you do this, the enemy will not see hope and will not fight. In this way, where is our military achievements?"

"Haha, Zhongyuan, you came from Chengdu to help, and I am very grateful. But my brother gave me the order to protect Yong'an and not let Wu Gou go deep into the hinterland of Yizhou. I only aim for this, and I have never thought about the others."

"It's not too late to think about it. Why don't we just pretend to be defeated first and then lure the enemy into the depths? Didn't you arrange a catapult upstream of Yong'an? If you want me, you shouldn't have exposed the catapult so early on both sides of the gorge."

"Hahaha..." After scratching my gray hair, Sun Gang, who was in his thirties, smiled silly: "My Sun Gang used to be a young man who was not diligent in Chengdu. When he arrived in Fuling, he was only a pigherd who had been a seven-year swineherd. When his brothers led their troops out to fight, I usually stayed at home. So I am a man of no use in military strategy. The reason why my brother used me as the Yong'an Supervisor was because he was just to take care of me and be careful in doing things. Brother Zhongyuan, who is Lu Youjie? Even famous generals like Chen Qian were fooled by him. How dare I fight with him? Being a human being is self-aware. I know very well how much I have. I also know very well what I should do. I am here, not asking for severe damage to the enemy, but only trying to guard the east gate of Yizhou and not let Wu Gou enter the country."

"Oh, okay, okay. I, Qian Hong, are so unlucky. Why can't I get decent military achievements anywhere?"

The plot development was a bit funny in the days to come.

Lu Kang was like a fairy woman who was determined to seduce Sun Gang, using all kinds of means**Sun Gang sent troops.

What kind of fleet attacks? If you get a little contact, you will be defeated. If you send someone to climb the cliff and attack the catapult, land on the slightly flat shore between Wushan County and Yong'an Palace, it will take a land attack. At night, the fire suddenly caught inside the Wu army fleet... Wait and wait. But Sun Gang ignored it at all: It's just a line. If you attack me, you will fight back. If you lose, I will never chase you. Anyway, I'll just stand here. If you want to continue roaming up, you must first completely defeat me.

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

Moreover, what Lu Kang was even worse than Zhuge Liang was that Sun Dinglie had no demeanor of a noble family. He did not abide by the rules of fighting between the two countries and not killing them. In short, your ship approached my position and attacked. In this way, Lu Kang did not even have the chance to give Sun Gang women's clothes. He could only give Sun Gang a nickname such as turtles and turtles within the Eastern Wu army.

"Ah~~~!" No matter how good the temper or the deep family background was, it could not help Lu Kang hide his anger. One night on January 15, 270 AD, a heart-wrenching roar sounded at the core of the Eastern Wu fleet, and Lu Kang beat the drum of gathering.

"You guys, I really didn't expect that Sun Dinglie was so cowardly! Shameless! Despicable! The Yong'an defenders would not be able to break through the gorge if they didn't enter the gorge and fight with our army. We would be stuck here for a long time, and it would be easy to say about military rations, but the morale was really worrying. Therefore, we must find another way out."

"What are the good strategies for the governor?"

"I mean, divide the troops. Some of them stay here to restrain the Yong'an army of the Sichuan bandits. The other part goes down the river and enters the Fengshui from Dongting Lake. Then follow the Fengshui upstream to Qianling County in Wuling County."

"What the governor means is Fuling County, which sneaked into the Sichuan thieves?"

"However, most of the Shu thieves are concentrated in Yongliang. After the battle in Yong'an, I calculated that it should be less than 20,000. Therefore, there should not be too many defenders in Fuling County. Besides, this time, Your Majesty ordered us to attack Shu, which was to take Yong'an and then attack Fuling County along the Wujiang River. Since this road cannot be done, I will change the road."

"The governor has a good idea. But who is staying here? How many soldiers and horses do the governor have to take to Fuling County?"

"From here to Qianling, there are basically waterways. However, after Qianling, there will be Wuling Mountains, which are completely impossible to supply the army. The meaning of this governor is to transport 10,000 war soldiers, plus 20,000 civilians to transport military rations. As for the remaining guards here, General Sun may be the one who is in charge of Lu?"

"Sun Yi receives the order!"
