The night is like water, and hundreds of warships are standing on the river, crisscrossing each other, and flowing down the river.
During the day, after Gan Ning severely damaged the Jiangdong navy, Gan Ning ordered the captured soldiers to be sent to Jiangxia overnight and detained, while he himself led 20,000 navy troops down the river.
The warships moved very slowly on the river, and the Jiangdong flag was hoisted on the warships along the way, with the huge "Ling" character swaying in the wind, so there was no confusion about the 20,000 navy troops along the way.
Killed Jiangdong general Ling Cao, captured 15,000 Jiangdong naval forces, captured nearly a hundred warships, and countless weapons and armors. This great victory made every Jingzhou navy feel excited and walked.
He was also holding his head high, and his morale had improved a lot compared to before.
Gan Ning was also relieved. With this victory, he could at least shut up those who were dissatisfied with Liu Qi's appointment of him as the commander of the navy.
For three or four days along the way from Xiangyang to Jiangxia, Gan Ning was nervous every day and did not dare to slack off. Leading the naval force in combat has always been his dream, but seriously commanding 40,000 naval forces
Only then did he realize how difficult it was. There was a world of difference between commanding 800 people and commanding 40,000 people. Moreover, his opponent was the elite Jiangdong navy. Gan Ning did not dare to take any chances.
.
Gan Ning spent these three or four days thinking about training warships every day. Until the 40,000 navy troops were under his command, Gan Ning did not dare to be careless.
Therefore, after repelling the Jiangdong navy, Gan Ning only had time to arrange for his men to clean up the battlefield before returning to the battleship and falling asleep.
After waking up feeling refreshed, Gan Ning walked out of the cabin and came to the deck.
"General!" Seeing Gan Ning come out, the soldiers guarding the door hurriedly saluted respectfully, feeling indescribable excitement in their hearts.
"Well, how far is it from Chaisang?" Gan Ning exhaled and felt a little more relaxed.
"General Qi, at this rate, the army will arrive at Chaisang in two hours." A young general immediately stepped forward and cupped his hands.
"Oh, has there been any news from Chai Sang?" Gan Ning's heart moved when he heard that there were only two hours left.
"There is no news from Chaisang City, but Jiangdong's army has camped by the Yangtze River. There are Jiangdong's naval patrols on the river. News from the spies said that ships have been prepared in the Lujiang River. Jiangdong's army is expected to retreat today.
At night." The young general is the big one.
"Oh, so fast." Gan Ning raised his head and looked at the sky, then lowered his head and said, "Speed up the speed and try to reach Chaisang within half an hour. Order the army to be prepared and attack as soon as we reach Chaisang."
"No." The young general left quickly. After a while, the order was passed, and the speed of the battleship suddenly increased, more than twice as fast as before.
Jiangdong's soldiers and horses retreated much faster than he expected, but now that Jiangdong's navy was defeated, it was impossible for Jiangdong to mobilize the navy again within a short period of time. He could just arrive at Chaisang to cut off Jiangdong's retreat.
As early as in Jiangxia, they had reached an agreement. He led the navy to severely inflict heavy damage on the Jiangdong navy, and then led the navy to Chaisang to cut off the retreat of the Jiangdong army, and to help Feihu, the Feilong army defeated the Jiangdong soldiers and horses in Jiangxia County.
"Jiang Dong should have a better memory this time." A sneer appeared at the corner of Gan Ning's mouth. Jiang Dong chose to attack Jingzhou at this time just to take advantage of the situation. If Liu Qi hadn't been tough, Jingzhou might have been in chaos at this time.
, Jiangxia may also be truly occupied by Jiangdong.
……………………………………………………
As soon as it got dark, the Jiangdong camp was already busy. A famous Jiangdong soldier ran out of the camp to gather. At the back of the camp near the river, a simple ferry had been built. This ferry was very simple, with a few wooden boards and a few
A huge, rough tree, and nothing else.
"Lord, the army has been assembled. Please board the ship."
In front of the army, Sun Ce and others stood on horseback. Seeing that they were almost ready, General Zhou Tai turned around and said to Sun Ce.
"Please, my lord, board the ship first."
After Zhou Tai finished speaking, the other generals also bowed and saluted.
"Okay. Board the ship!"
Sun Ce looked at everyone and knew that if he didn't board the ship, they wouldn't board the ship either, so he immediately turned around and walked towards the ferry without hesitation.
Thousands of small ships had long been parked on the river, and these thousands of small ships were formerly a hundred temporarily modified medium-sized warships. Arriving at the ferry, Sun Ce jumped off his horse and strode onto the ship, with the generals from Jiangdong behind him.
Follow closely.
"Ziyi, I'll leave this to you." Zhou Yu walked at the end and looked at Taishi Cidao.
How could such a big thing be hidden from Jingzhou such as the withdrawal of troops from Jiangdong? The withdrawal would take at least several hours. Anything could happen during these hours. It would be even more dangerous if Taishi Ci stayed to guard the camp.
"Don't worry, Commander-in-Chief, no one in Jingzhou can keep me, Tai Shici."
Taishi Cihun didn't care, his fair face was full of resoluteness, he and Sun Ce knew each other, they could be said to be monarchs and ministers, and they could also be regarded as good friends. Sun Ce didn't say anything before leaving just now and just nodded to him, which explained everything.
.
"Yeah." Zhou Yu nodded and turned around to walk onto the battleship.
Afterwards, five thousand personal guards led the horses onto the battleship. These personal guards were the elite of Jiangdong and naturally had to evacuate as soon as possible, and these horses were no less important to Jiangdong than Jiangdong's soldiers.
One hundred warships slowly left the shore and headed towards the opposite side. Then a ship came up and picked up the soldiers on the ferry. These ships were extremely small, and each ship could only accommodate more than ten people.
It is also unstable and may fall into the river at any time.
"General, the Feilong Army and the Feihu Army are attacking at the same time." A young general walked over quickly and whispered in Taishi Ci's ear.
"I understand. You are here to urge the soldiers to leave as soon as possible and try to send as many soldiers and horses back to Jiangdong as possible."
Hearing that the Feihu Army and the Feilong Army attacked Taishi Ci at the same time, Taishi Ci felt a tremble in his heart. Taishi Ci said with a solemn face. He already knew that today's retreat would not be too easy, but he did not expect that the Feilong Army and the Feihu Army would come.
So fast.
"Fortunately, my lord and others have returned to Jiangdong."
Taishi Ci was convinced, with a look of determination on his face, he pulled the horse beside him and jumped up, heading towards the front camp.
Dong dong dong dong…………
The rapid sound of war drums resounded through the sky, and two large phalanxes of the Flying Dragon Army and the Flying Tiger Army appeared outside the Jiangdong camp at the same time. The soldiers guarding the camp were breathless under the overwhelming pressure, and they all looked at the army outside the camp with solemn expressions.
In front of the army, Wang Wei and Wenpin stood on horseback, casually looking at the Jiangdong camp not far away. Behind them, the 10,000 Flying Tiger Army and 20,000 Flying Dragon Army stood silently, without any strict guards.
There was no fierce murderous aura in their aura, but it was these two soldiers and horses that made the Jiangdong soldiers in the camp turn pale and breathe quickly.
The Feihu Army is dressed in white armor, while the Feilong Army is in black armor. The entire Feilong Army and the Feihu Army are integrated, like two fists tightly clenched together, ready to go. These two fists are like
It was as powerful as breaking the sky and cracking the earth, and the soldiers in the Jiangdong camp were holding their weapons tightly and their legs were shaking.
"It's really two tiger armies!"
Taishi Ci, who had just arrived at the front camp, saw the Flying Tiger Army and the Flying Dragon Army at a glance, and was extremely shocked. Such armies are elite no matter where they are, but these two elites were like giant dragons in the net in Liu Biao's hands.
There is no power at all, but now this giant network has been cut off by Liu Qi. The first time the Feilong Army and the Flying Tiger Army jointly attacked, they showed the kind of power that can crush everything.
"alert!"
Taishi Ci did not dare to hesitate, and immediately ordered the soldiers in the army to be on guard. A famous soldier was ready to shoot at any time, and the soldiers at the camp gate blocked the camp gate, with long spears pointing high at the camp.
outside the door.
"Why didn't you see Feilongwei?"
After arranging everyone to be on guard, Taishi Ci was relieved and looked outside the camp gate again, and immediately found that the Feilong Guards had not come. You must know that although the Feilong Guards are cavalry and are not suitable for forcibly attacking the door, as long as the Feilong Army and the Feihu Army
Breaking down the camp gate and using the Feilong Guard as a powerful weapon to clear out the remnants of the army, with the Feilong Guard cleaning the battlefield at least twice as fast, it will prevent more Jiangdong soldiers from returning to Jiangdong.
Although Taishi Ci was confident, he was not arrogant. With the 20,000 ordinary Jiangdong soldiers in his hands, it was impossible to withstand the attack of the Feilong Army and the Feihu Army. He could only delay as much time as possible to allow more
The Jiangdong soldiers returned to Jiangdong.
"Um?"
A flash of doubt flashed in Taishi Ci's eyes. Not only did he not see the Feilong Guards outside the camp gate, but the Flying Tiger Army and Feilong Army outside the camp gate had no intention of attacking. He could see clearly that although there was a drum outside the camp gate,
The sound shook the sky, but the Feilong Army and the Feihu Army had no intention of attacking the camp gate.
The Feilong Army and the Feihu Army stood quietly outside the camp gate, and did not make any move because of the rapid sound of the war drums. Moreover, Wang Wei and Wenpin were still looking around aimlessly at the camp.
Inside.
"What on earth is going on? Not only did the Feilong Guards not come, but the Feihu Army and Feilong Army didn't prepare to attack the city. Is there any conspiracy in Jingzhou?"
Taishi Ci held the hilt of the sword in his hand, thoughts racing in his mind, towards Jingzhou's purpose of doing this.
Two hours passed. Taishi Ci was always paying attention to how many Jiangdong soldiers and horses were crossing the river. After sending off a group of Jiangdong soldiers, the young general would send someone to report to Taishi Ci. By this time, the Jiangdong soldiers and horses were sent away.
A total of 50,000 soldiers and horses have been sent away, which means that including the 20,000 defenders under his command, there are only 30,000 soldiers and horses left in the camp.
"Could it be that Wang Wei and Wenpin mobilized their troops like this just to drive us back to Jiangdong?"
As more and more Jiangdong soldiers were sent away, Taishi Ci became increasingly confused about Jingzhou's intentions.
"Huh?" Taishi Ci narrowed his eyes and looked outside the camp gate. There was finally movement outside the camp gate. The 10,000 Flying Tiger Army slowly left under the leadership of Wang Wei.
