Old Cao forcibly pressed his excitement and asked Cao Ying on the side:
"Ying'er, is this water army really useful?"
"Wouldn't it... It's like the Xuanwu Chi Water Army again. "
Speaking of this, Lao Cao couldn't help but blush a little.
That Xuanwu Pond Water Army was built by Lao Cao at great expense after he took Yecheng.
Ask for money for money, ask for people to give people.
I was afraid to hold it in my hand, and I was afraid to melt it in my mouth.
I thought that with this Xuanwu Chi Water Army, the battle of the Southern Expedition would become quite smooth.
But who would have thought?
As soon as the Xuanwu Pool Water Army got on the boat, he directly turned on the seasickness mode!
The main thing is that one is not useful.
Cao Ying could understand Old Cao's mood at the moment.
When the Xuanwu Pool Water Army came out of training, Old Cao Na was extremely excited!
But when it came to the Battle of Chibi, how excited I was at the beginning, how disappointed I became in the end.
And at the moment.
Suddenly joined by the Berkshire Water Army, Lao Cao was afraid that he would be happy again.
"Awen rest assured."
"This Ba County, after all, is still located in the middle and upper reaches of the Yangtze River."
"The combat effectiveness of the Berkshire Water Army, although not necessarily comparable to the Jiangdong Water Army."
"But the water nature of each of their soldiers is excellent."
"It's impossible to get seasickness that isn't familiar with water."
Hearing this, Lao Cao finally stuffed his hanging heart back into his stomach.
The most difficult part of training the water army, in addition to the problem of warships, the rest is the problem of water nature.
The Yellow River is turbulent and does not have the conditions to train the water army.
Only the Yangtze River is the birthplace of the water army. "Eight Zero Seven" but the northern soldiers are all dry ducks.
Feudal dynasties are not posterity.
Many northern soldiers have never seen the Yangtze River in their entire lives.
Even if a very small number of them can overcome the water-based problem, it is difficult to fight on the water like those southern soldiers who grew up on the Yangtze River in the south.
At least among the generals under Cao Ying.
Only Jiang Wei is the only one who is not afraid of seasickness by nature.
Originally, Deng Ai wanted to volunteer to take a boat to Ba County to rebel against Pang Xi.
But when he vomited up and down, almost fainting on the boat but still hard-mouthed, Cao Ying had to send someone to carry him off the ship with a helpless face.
The messenger candidate, this became Jiang Wei, who was as bold as a chicken egg (kun egg).
Fortunately, Jiang Wei was fortunate and completed the task brilliantly.
And bring to Cao Ying such a real sense of the "first water army of Cao Ying"!
For the Berkshire Water Army, Cao Ying's expectations in her heart are actually quite high.
The world-famous Jinfan thief is actually from Berkshire.
Yes, Gan Ning is a native of Shuba County.
The first batch of Jinfan thief veterans under his command were all Berkshire natives like him.
However, later Gan Ning was dissatisfied with Liu Zhang's rule over Yizhou.
After the rebellion failed, he fled to Jingzhou.
Pity.
Cao Ying currently does not have any water battle masters who can compare to Zhou Yu, Huang Zu, and Gan Ning.
Otherwise, add the Berkshire water army as a basis.
Cao Ying is confident that within a year or two, he will train a water army unit that can fight head-on with the Jiangdong Water Division!
Followed by.
Lao Cao called his subordinates to prepare for an operational meeting to attack Gemeng Pass.
Compared to the previous battle meeting that ended in nothing.
This time, everyone in Cao Ying was full of confidence on their faces.
After plotting against Pang Xi, the initiative was on Cao Jun's side.
Berkshire is located south of Gemeng Pass.
This meant that Pang Xi could not only send naval divisions to attack from the water, but also lead army units to attack by land.
Gemeng Pass and Wuding Pass, under the double attack of Cao Jun and Pang Xi, are about to become meat dumplings.
......
Wuding Guanzhong
Huo Jun and Chen Zhi were meticulously leading their troops to rotate the garrison.
Both are people with strict temperaments.
For them, Wuding Pass is a lifeline.
If this lifeline is broken by the Cao army, the situation in Yizhou will become extremely unfavorable for Liu Beijun as a whole.
However.
Just today.
After Huo Jungang and Chen Zhi finished changing defenses, they suddenly realized that the direction of the waterway was not quite right!
The waterway on this side of Gemengguan is a small tributary of the Jialing River.
On weekdays, fishing boats rarely float back and forth.
But today, Huo Jun found a group of no less than thirty fishermen.
What is this for?
Help Cao Jun to carry out a sneak attack?
Huo Jun did not dare to be careless, and he quickly sent soldiers to arrest the group of fishermen.
But just when Huo Jun was about to torture and extract a confession, the leader of the fishermen suddenly spoke:
"General, Cao Jun gave us money, let us come and tell the general."
"They will soon send troops to attack Wuding Pass, hoping that the general will return as soon as possible and be spared the pain of flesh and skin."
Huo Jun: "...??? "
For a while, Huo Jun was a little confused.
He really didn't expect that Cao Jun would send someone to inform him before the war began.
Is it difficult that no one told Cao Jun the truth that soldiers are not tired of deceit?
Again.
Cao Jun's threat, Huo Jun did not take it too seriously.
Cao Jun is considered a hanging hair?
There was no water army available under his command, so he could only rely on the infantry unit to slowly attack Wuding Pass.
Take the unique terrain of Wuding Pass.
Not to mention a hundred thousand infantry.
Even if 200,000 infantry and 300,000 infantry surround here, it will be useless!
Thus.
After being brought such a message by the fishermen, Huo Jun's heart was not as nervous as before.
It was as if Huo Jun didn't know when Cao Jun's side would come to attack the problem before.
But now, Cao Jun is equivalent to playing with him.
If under such circumstances, Huo Jun is still afraid, it will be really a shame.
"By the way, why did Cao Jun send you fishermen here?"
"Could it be that Cao Jun is planning to sneak attack from the water?"
After all, Huo Jun is still a person with a strict temperament.
After thinking of this question, he quickly asked the fishermen behind him.
But the fisherman said with disdain:
"General, do you believe this conjecture you said?"
"If Cao Jun really has the ability to sneak attack from the water."
"Then wouldn't it be okay for them to directly send their own water army to attack Wuding Pass?"
"And why pay us to declare war on you, General?"
Huo Jun smiled.
That's true.
Cao Jun is a dry duck.
Otherwise, Jiangdong's Sun Shiwan would have been crunchy long ago, how could he have been bouncing until now?
As for why Cao Cao made such a move, he sent fishermen to declare war on him Huo Jun.
Huo Jun believed that Cao Cao still wanted to surrender without a fight, just like when he subdued Liu Jun and Cai Yao.
But it's a pity.
He Huo Jun had already worshiped Liu Bei as the master.
No matter how Cao Cao wooed, he Huo Jun could not be shaken by this.
......
Huo Jun did not embarrass this group of fishermen.
After receiving the news that Cao Jun was about to conquer the pass, Huo Jun immediately informed Chen Zhi of the news.
Compared to Huo Jun, Chen Zhi and Cao Jun had significantly more combat experience.
Even, it can be traced back to Liu Bei's time in Xuzhou. (Read violent novels, just go to Feilu Fiction Network!) )
As the saying goes, "soldiers come to block, water to cover."
Under the orders of Chen Zhi and Huo Jun, the defenders of Wuding Pass quickly entered a state of combat readiness.
A day later.
A Cao army of nearly 20,000 soldiers slowly emerged at the foot of Wuding Pass.
They carried the banner of the character "Cao".
The chief general is Cao Hong.
Immediately afterwards, Cao Jun came up the mountain with great momentum.
But after fighting for a while, I found that this solid level was simply unbreakable.
So, the Cao army withdrew.
See this scene.
Huo Jun and Chen Zhi couldn't help but have a satisfied smile on their lips.
It seems that Cao Jun's ability is only so much.
But......
In the next few days, Huo Jun and Chen Zhifang learned what it means to be sinister.
The 100,000 Cao army, at Cao Ying's suggestion, was divided into five parts by Cao Cao.
Each part is about 20,000 people.
It was led by Cao Hong, Yu Ban, Xu Huang, Zhang Hao, and Cao Xiu.
It's like a shift system, with only two hours per person.
After two hours, he hurriedly retired and handed it over to the next team to fight.
Albeit.
In front of the strong Wuding Pass, Cao Jun was always unable to move an inch.
But...... The defenders of Wuding Pass also had a hard time to the extreme.
Almost all day, they don't get any rest time!
Including Huo Jun and Chen Zhi.
Just three days passed.
The defenders in Wuding Pass all felt that their days were like years.
They are like ruthless screwmen sitting in a factory and turning screws for ten hours, repeating every action ...
In desperation.
Chen Zhi and Huo Jun also had to rotate again.
But...... Their number was not as large as that of the Cao army.
Even if it is rotated, it is still tired to the extreme, and it falls asleep.
As a result, in the shouts and the rain of knives and arrows, he was again and again woken up helplessly.
And so another five days passed.
Just when Huo Jun and Chen Zhi both felt exhausted, the sentinels in the direction of Gemeng Pass suddenly rushed over.
And brought a news that made them feel a thunderbolt!
"Kai... General Qiyu, an army of no less than five thousand people appeared south of Gemeng Pass! "
"The exact number has not yet been ascertained."
"They're coming in the direction of Gemeng Pass."
"I'm afraid that in less than half an hour, it will come to Guanxia!"
"Poof!"
Chen Zhi pulled out his saber and slashed at the ground on the side.
He really couldn't understand why Cao Jun suddenly appeared in the direction of Ge Meng Pass.
"Shu Zhi, I'm afraid it's not Cao Jun."
"It's rather... The army under Pang Xi of the Taishu of Baxian County! "
Huo Jun said with a heavy face.
"Pang ... Pang Xi? "
"Could it be that he was countered by Cao Cao?"
"But it doesn't make sense!"
"Cao Cao doesn't have a water army, why can he contact Pang Xi?"
Chen Zhi's face was full of disbelief.
He had followed Liu Bei in the Southern Campaign and Northern War for many years, and he was well aware of Cao Ying's combat style.
Before the unification of the north, Cao Cao did not become the strongest because of his own strength, and he generally paid more attention to combat tactics in war.
For example, the Battle of Hakuba, the Battle of Yeonjin, and the burning of the black nest.
None of these battles was won by the Cao army after a head-to-head confrontation with the Yuan army on the frontal battlefield.
However, after Yuan Shao's death, Cao Jun's fighting style gradually tended to be widespread.
After all.
As long as the fist is hard enough, all intrigues and tricks are just icing on the cake.
But now.
Cao Jun's feeling to Chen Zhi was that there was endless obscenity mixed in the big opening and closing!
Against Pang Xi, is this something that people can do?
The two checkpoints of Wuding Pass and Gemeng Pass are mutually exclusive.
But Chen Zhi and Huo Junman were only 6,000 people.
Plus these six thousand people spend every day in exhaustion.
At this moment, if they divide a part of their forces to garrison Gemeng Pass, it will simply kill them!
But no way.
If you give up the division of troops to garrison Gemeng Pass.
Once Gemeng Pass was occupied by Pang Xi's army.
Then, Wuding Guan can also declare in advance that a cool song is a river of thoughts for you.
After discussion.
In the end, Chen Zhi led the Bai'er elite soldiers and a thousand soldiers to Gemeng Pass.
This means that the pressure on Huo Jun will become even greater.
With only more than 3,000 soldiers left under 5.0, he needed to face the Cao army's rounds of bombing for nearly twelve hours without interruption!
......
Chen Zhi's ability to command troops is quite good.
Under his leadership, Pang Xi and the Baqian County pawns failed to take the Gemeng Pass in time.
However.
Pang Xi was not in any hurry.
His 8,000 troops were in order to let Liu Bei's army of Wuding Pass come to garrison Gemeng Pass.
Now, the goal has been achieved.
Leave the rest to Jiang Wei!
Yes.
Just when Pang Xi led his army to attack Gemeng Pass.
Jiang Wei and 3,000 Baxian water troops were walking up the waterway, quietly approaching the tributary of the Jialing River outside Wuding Pass!
The fishermen that Cao Ying had sent to Wuding Pass to declare war on Huo Jun before were indeed just fishermen.
But...... Their purpose is not simply to declare war.
Along the way, the location of the reef and the location of the countercurrent, the fishermen have also roughly helped Cao Jun to explore clearly.
In this era, ordinary people are mostly honest and can even be described as cowardly.
But fishermen are not among them.
Who can be a fisherman, which is a simple stubble?
All of them are bold people!
As the saying goes.
Money talks.
The money that Cao Ying gave to the fishermen was enough to cover them for ten lifetimes.
When they scouted the roads for the Berkshire water army, they naturally worked hard.
And now.
Jiang Wei, who was riding on the boat, was also about to take this Berkshire water army and set up the first merit of attacking Wuding Pass!
......。
