Chapter 14 Jiang Xia Changes Owner
When Sun Quan heard that Han Dang and Ling Tong blocked Huang Zu's way, and that Ling Tong personally captured Huang Zu, and was escorting him to his side, Sun Quan was very excited and his heart was full of excitement. This is the Jiangdong Sun family. Enemy, the last enemy, Yuan Shu, has been dead for a long time.

Seeing Huang Zu being escorted by Ling Tong, Sun Quan laughed and said, "Old man Huang Zu, do you know if I have today?"

Huang Zu still took a chance, expressed his willingness to surrender, and offered Jiangxia Commandery to him.

Sun Quan laughed again and said, "Jiang Xia, I take it myself. I don't want you to surrender now, I just want your head to pay homage to my father and Jiangdong's children."

So Sun Quan ordered Huang Zu to be temporarily detained until Jiang Xia was defeated, and then he ordered the generals to attack Jiang Xia.

Su Fei was lucky this time, and he was not captured by Sun Quan like before. Instead, he fled back to Jiangxia with some defeated troops. At the same time, he brought back the bad news that Huang Zu's entire army was destroyed, and the entire Jiangxia city suddenly became a mess.Hearing that Sun Quan was not giving up and was marching towards Jiangxia, some wealthy merchants began to pack up their belongings and prepare to flee to Jingzhou, and many generals in the army were also preparing to flee.

Zhang Wu knew that his chance had finally come, so he hurriedly found Chen Sun, and said: "Second brother, Huang Zu is dead, and his confidantes are almost dead, our chance has come, you immediately lead us The troops under your command, together with the people we put in the defenders, first control the defenders in the city, and kill those who disobey. Then you control the gates of Jiangxia City. Kill without mercy."

If all the people run away, what will he use to defend the city!Besides, those wealthy businessmen and big households are all fat sheep, and they will be the people under their own rule in the future, so they can't be allowed to run away.

"Okay, big brother, I'll go right away!" Chen Sun said excitedly, he was finally about to act, but Lao Chen was waiting anxiously.

At this critical moment, Zhang Wu finally made a move, and he took over the jurisdiction of Jiangxia City as Jiang Xia's deputy general.Most of Huang Zu's confidantes in the army died at the hands of Jiangdong's army, and the few who escaped had no soldiers in their hands. Zhang Wu had already placed a large number of confidants in the defending army, and with the [-] elite troops he secretly trained, he could easily So he took control of the situation in Jiangxia city.

At first, Su Fei had some rhetoric, and had some objections to Zhang Wu's leadership, but now he is a defeated general with no soldiers, so he was directly locked up by Zhang Wu on the grounds that he had lost the battle.

Zhang Wu then ordered Gan Ning to give up Shaxian and return to Jiangxia to defend.When the Jiangdong army approached, Zhang Wu ordered Jiangxia city to be closed, and no one was allowed to enter or leave, fearing that the Jiangdong army would take the opportunity to attack the city gate.

After Gan Ning rushed back, Zhang Wu also recruited a lot of Jiangxia's rout troops who fled back, so he integrated the troops. According to the list given by Mi Heng, those who should be recruited were recruited, and those who could not be recruited were released from the military power and imprisoned. After repelling Sun Quan, we will deal with it again, and those who dare to resist will be killed without mercy.

After Zhang Wu took full control of the Jiangxia army, he appointed Chen Sun as the infantry commander to maintain order in Jiangxia City, continue to hunt for Huang Zu's trusted friends, and search the city for spies sent by Sun Quan.Gan Ning was also appointed as the commander of the navy, and he led the Jiangxia navy to cruise up the Yangtze River to ensure the waterway connection between Jiangxia City and Jingzhou, and at the same time to coordinate with the city.

Zhang Wu began to mobilize Jiangxia's army and civilians to defend the city, ordered the defenders from all over Jiangxia County to immediately support Jiangxia City, and sent people to report the battle situation to Jingzhou and ask for help.

Gan Ning is finally in power. Seeing that all the arrangements of his elder brother have been realized one by one, he can't help but increase his confidence in Zhang Wu. After integrating and controlling the remaining naval forces in Jiangxia, he finally began to display his outstanding water combat skills, and never let Sun Quanjun cut off Jiangxia City was in contact with the waterway of the outside world, and seized the opportunity to take advantage of the familiar terrain to attack the Jiangdong Army's waterway supply team once.

Because Gan Ning led his troops to deal with Sun Quan's army on the river, Sun Quan was still unable to cut off Jiangxia's connection with the outside world, and reinforcements and material resources from all over the country were continuously transported into Jiangxia City.Jiangxia's army and civilians have been defending Jiangdong for more than ten years, and they have experience. Some time ago, it was mainly because Huang Zu was captured and there was no one to command.

The Jiangdong navy is not good at attacking the city, and the spies reported that Liu Biao had sent Cai Mao to lead the Xiangyang navy to support them. There were frequent commotions in the rear of Shanyue, and Gan Ning never fought head-on with the Jiangdong army. Team.

Sun Quan said with emotion: "I didn't expect this 'Jinfan thief' to be so difficult to deal with, nor did I expect him to be so powerful in water warfare. If Huang Zu reuses this person, how can I capture him alive!"

Ling Tong has been looking for a chance to fight Gan Ning during this time, but Gan Ning always runs away after being harassed, never confronting hard steel, making Ling Tong hold his breath and have nowhere to vent, one time he couldn't bear it Going after Gan Ning, he was almost caught in an ambush.Hearing Sun Quan's praise of Gan Ning at this time, he couldn't help saying: "My lord, I wish to fight to the death with Gan Ning's traitors, my lord, please give me an order!"

"Gan Ning is cunning. He is also in the upper reaches of the river. He is familiar with the water situation and terrain. He never engages our army head-on. If he chases him too deep, there may be an ambush. Besides, Cai Mao's navy is not far away from our army, and Jiangxia City is eager to get down. Even if Jiangxia City is captured, it will be difficult to defend the isolated city outside, so it is better to return to the army for now, and then attack after the rear is stable." Veteran Cheng Pu suggested.

Just at this time, spies came to report, and Zhou Yu in Lujiang sent an army report. Cao Cao had soldiers and horses mobilized in Runan, but his whereabouts were unknown.Sun Quan saw that Jiangxia would not be captured for a while, and Huang Zu had been captured, so he withdrew his army and returned to Wu County. He left Ling Tong to garrison Sha Xian, waiting for the opportunity to kill Gan Ning for revenge.

Regardless of Zhang Wu's dissuasion, Huang She, Huang Zu's son, rushed to lead his troops to rescue his captured father, but was defeated by Huang Gai who was broken. Fortunately, Gan Ning rescued him, otherwise the father and son would be captured together by Sun Quan.

As soon as Sun Quan left, Cai Mao's reinforcements arrived, and Zhang Wu brought Chen Sun, Gan Ning, and all the civil and military officials from Jiangxia City to greet them.

After Liu Biao stabilized Jingzhou, he conquered Ling and Guangxi in the south, and occupied Hanchuan in the north. The area was thousands of miles away, with more than 10,000 armies.At least half of these [-]+ troops are navy troops.

There are three naval forces in Jingzhou, one is the Xiangyang Navy, stationed between Xiangyang and Fancheng, and is controlled by Cai Mao; one is the Jiangling Navy, stationed in the Jiangling area, and is controlled by Liu Biao's nephew Zhang Yun; The Jiangxia navy was stationed in Jiangxia and was controlled by Huang Zu.

Among these three naval forces, since the Jiangxia Navy has always been on the front line of the war and has been at war with Jiangdong for more than ten years, it is basically composed of combat soldiers, and its combat effectiveness is the strongest among the Jingzhou Navy.Although he could never defeat the Jiangdong navy, the main reason was Huang Zu's incompetence. If he were led by a top naval general like Gan Ning and with more training, he could still fight against the Jiangdong navy.

The second is the Jiangling navy, which guards the Xiangshui River and the Dongting Lake area. Although there are combat missions, there are not many, so the combat effectiveness is not very strong, and the number of people is not as large as that of the Jiangxia navy.

There is no navy in the north facing the Xiangyang navy, and basically they have never fought, so their combat effectiveness is the worst.However, after all, the Xiangyang navy guarded Xiangyang, the seat of Jingzhou, and was the armed force in front of Liu Biao, so the Xiangyang navy had the largest number of ships and the largest tonnage.
