Although the second brother is an enemy of Fang Guang, his military quality is indeed much better than that of Li Dian, Yu Jin and others.
Seeing the Dongwu ship breaking away from contact, and countless small boats rushing towards it at high speed, Yun Chang had already noticed the mystery.
Liao Hua also realized something was wrong at this time and quickly shouted at the top of his voice.
It's a pity that although Guan Yu and Liao Hua sensed something was wrong, the quality of Jingzhou's navy was far from comparable to that of the people in Jiangdong.
More than half of the navy could not hear this military order, which was mainly shouted. When they heard it, they were so crowded that they had no time to retreat.
"Hoola!"
The soldiers under Huang Gai's command ignited the fuel and firewood on the sampan the moment before it came into contact with the Soochow and Jiangxia battleships, and then jumped into the river calmly.
In the isolated water area in front of the Soochow warship, flames soared into the sky instantly.
The Tongwu army retreated differently, and the Jingzhou soldiers realized that they could win only by joining the side, so they all crowded together.
The wooden warship, blown by the roaring river wind, spreads the flames very quickly.
The second brother stood proudly in the flames, pinching out the dots on his long beard with one hand, looking at the Soochow ship a hundred steps away, his eyes almost bursting with fire.
He looked back and saw that almost half of the battleship behind him was on fire. Wang Fu and other civil servants were lifted onto the small boat and flew towards Jiangxia City.
After the two wings were leveled, almost all of Zhou Cang's warships were on fire. The surface of the Shaxian River had become the largest furnace in the world.
"Today's shame will eventually be washed away in blood! Huh, Jiangdong Shuzi, you are a sly little thief!"
The second brother finally couldn't bear the high temperature. He said a few words to regain his position, and strode back with Liao Hua.
The flames soaring into the sky, before he knew it, had ignited Guan Yu's escape.
After a while, ordinary sounds came one after another, and a frightened voice of a dull northern soldier wandered on the river.
"General Guan fell into the river, General Guan fell into the river!"
On the eighth day of October in the year 197 AD, in the sandy land of Jiangxia, Zhou Yu set fire to the river and defeated the Jingzhou navy.
Liu Bei's second brother Guan Yu fell into the river and escaped, entered Jiangxia City, and defended the city. Zhou Yu's soldiers and horses blocked the city by water and land, and laid siege to the city in three layers. The military power was extremely powerful!
Just three days before the Battle of Shaxian, Liu Bei completed the reorganization of his army in Xiangyang. Hearing that Sun Quan was heading towards Guiyang County with Lu Meng as the vanguard, Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin as generals, he was furious and sent 30,000 troops to march directly.
Changsha County.
Han Xuan, the prefect of Changsha, was Liu Biao's favorite general. He was impatient by nature and did not like killing. He was also a close friend of Liu Du, the prefect of Lingling. Liu Du ordered his general Xing Daorong to lead an army of 10,000 to rush for reinforcements, waiting for Xuande to arrive.
The Sun and Liu families fought fiercely, intending to integrate the south while Cao Cao was moving all his strength northward.
The situation in Xiangyang is becoming more and more dangerous day by day. Zhou Yu, a talented general, is by no means a person who only knows how to use water warfare and military strategy.
He knew that Guan Yu's navy had been completely wiped out and that there were very few soldiers available in the city, so he ordered Chai Sang's soldiers to attack the city from all sides with cloud ladders and towers, not giving Jingzhou soldiers a chance to breathe.
After several days of fierce fighting, the outer city of Jiangxia was lost, Guan Yu retreated to Wengcheng, and the situation became extremely urgent.
It's just that the second brother's pretentious interest has been soaked in his bones and blood. At such a critical moment, Yun Chang, who fell into the river a few days ago and fought desperately to save Zhou Cang, sneezed every day and yelled at Zhou Yu and Lu Su in front of the city.
It boosted the morale of the troops.
In Yun Chang's heart, he was actually ready for a deadly battle to destroy the city. How did he know that the game between the kings and ministers of Soochow indirectly saved the city of Jiangxia!
On this day, Zhou Yu's eyes were red in the northern city of Jiangxia. In front of him, Wu army ants gathered to attack the city, but the governor's thoughts did not seem to be on the city.
"Where is Zijing? Why haven't you returned from urging for food? Two days ago, there was no rice in the army. Where is Zhang Zhao and where is Gu Yong?"
Since the death of Sun Ce, Zhou Yu has been devastated. Just because of his promise to Bo Fu, he still retained Sun Quan in the army to assist him. Mei Zhoulang, a lively and talented man, survived to become the taciturn Hua Fa Nan.
Not only does it seem that Gong Jin will never be happy, but even his anger has been forgotten.
Today, seeing the city of Jiangxia destroyed and only breathing its last breath, the smooth grain road was magically delivered with no grain, and the governor finally got angry.
"Commander, Zijing went to collect food before the hour came, and the water and rice were not yet brought in. I think the food and grass are on the way, so there is no need to be anxious!"
Zhou Yu sat in front of him, and Cheng Pu, who was also afraid of Sun Quan, comforted Zhou Lang in a hoarse voice.
Everyone knew in their hearts that Zhang Zhao and Gu Yong were trying to manipulate the governor. No one said anything for a while, and the atmosphere was extremely tense.
"Commander, Huang Zu has been running Jiangxia for so many years, and there has always been a lot of food and grass in the city. Today, when we capture the city and kill Guan Yu, we don't need Wu Commandery's food, and everyone will have something to eat!"
Huang Gai, a born optimist, was still a reckless young man at this time. Thinking of the fire scene in the Yangtze River a few days ago, the young man Gongfu's face was full of excitement.
"Exactly so!"
"Don't worry, Captain!"
The generals glanced at each other and saw that under the governor's white hair, his originally handsome face was now horribly gray, and they all began to offer words of comfort.
At this moment, the shouts of countless soldiers suddenly came from the top of Jiangxia City.
The Dongwu generals followed the sound and saw that it was Cheng Pu's Baizhan tribe who had finally climbed to the top of the city and was fighting closely with Jingzhou soldiers and horses.
Guan Yu didn't have many soldiers left, and everyone here knew it clearly. Seeing that the city might be broken today, Cheng Pu laughed loudly, punched his palm hard, and strode out of the tent.
"Huang Laoqi and the others are really useful. They were the three brothers who climbed to Yuhang City first that day. If the city of Jiangxia is destroyed today, we should ask the governor for the rank of captain, so as to warm the hearts of our brothers!"
"How can a school captain be enough? If the city of Jiangxia is destroyed, there is no harm in being a general! Let's go, I will personally lead you until the city is destroyed!"
The attack on the city seemed to go more smoothly today. Even though Zhou Lang was furious, he couldn't help but smile.
The Jiangdong generals knew that the foothold at the head of the city had been captured and they had to rush for reinforcements immediately, otherwise it would be difficult to deal with Guan Yu's arrival in person.
Han Dang, Cheng Pu, Huang Gai, and Ling Tong moved their hands and feet and followed the governor. They were about to climb the city together, but they heard another shout. The few Dongwu soldiers who had gone to the top of the city first were held by a fat black man.
He fell directly from the city.
Huang Laoqi almost fell in front of Gong Jin. Han Dang did not expect that for a moment, the person he was interested in did not hold his footing, and his face instantly darkened.
"Lao Qi, I remember that when Yan Baihu was captured and killed, his hands were all held down by you. Even tigers can be captured alive. Why was he thrown down today?"
"Come here, bring some water. It doesn't matter. Let's watch your brother take revenge!"
"Commander, General Cheng, we brothers are all incompetent. If it had been a few days ago, what would we be afraid of, that fat man?"
"Today, the brothers really have no strength. They haven't eaten for two days. Before attacking the city today, the brothers only drank a bowl of grass soup!"
"Cao Tang? Yi Gong, De Mou, didn't I allocate the last grain and rice in the army so that you can reward the soldiers? Why not? Why not!"
