The Supreme Call of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 409 Heroes See the Same Thing

Yue Fei camp.

The attack on Danyang City continued for three days without any progress, and Liu Feng's [-] troops returned in time to help, making it even more difficult to break through Danyang City. The generals in the army were all a little worried. The walls of Danyang City were all made of bluestone. It is extremely strong, but Yue Fei does not have enough gunpowder in his hands now. Even if Yue Fei is a god with his troops, it will not be easy to capture Danyang City.

"Governor, what should I do now..."

Xue Rengui said worriedly.

Yue Fei's expression was calm, without the slightest hint of anxiety.

Gao Shun said in a deep voice: "Brother Rengui, don't worry. My lord has defeated Liu Bei's main force now, and the army has already reached the north bank of the Yangtze River. As long as the Moling Ferry is broken, the army will drive straight in. It's just Danyang City, and it can go down sooner or later!"

Xue Rengui smiled wryly and said: "Brother Boping, what you said is easy. This is the natural moat of the Yangtze River. Most of our army is from the Central Plains, and they are not familiar with water warfare. Moreover, we have just arrived on the bank of the Yangtze River and lack boats to cross the river. The Yangtze River is wide at Moling Ferry. The widest point is even more than ten miles, and the narrowest point is four or five miles. Can you cross the Yangtze River?"

Gao Shun's face froze. He didn't expect this. Without enough warships, crossing the Yangtze River moat is more difficult than ascending to the sky. Even if the lord is given three to five months, he can only do nothing!
Yue Fei said calmly: "So what if we don't have enough boats? Moling is not the only one who can cross the Yangtze River. How can we hold us?"

Xue Rengui quickly asked: "What's the strategy of the governor?"

Yue Fei said indifferently: "It's very simple. Apart from Moling, there is also Yanling Ferry in Wu County. Now Liu Bei's main force is mostly in the Danyang area, but Yanling Ferry doesn't have much troops. We attack Yanling Ferry from the road. It takes five thousand horses to easily defeat Guan Ping at Yanling Ferry, occupy Yanling Ferry, and seize the warships at Yanling Ferry!"

"But……"

Xue Rengui smiled bitterly and said: "Great Governor, the main force of the lord is on the other side of Moling. There is still a distance of hundreds of miles from Moling to Yanling. Even if we capture the Yanling Ferry, the lord wants to enter Yanling , It will also take a long time, losing the suddenness of the battle, Liu Bei can deal with it calmly..."

Yue Fei said indifferently: "It's okay, I ordered people to go to the ferry on the north bank of the Yangtze River the day before yesterday. If it goes well, I can see my lord tonight, and tomorrow morning, my lord can divide up and go to Yanling. Continue to besiege Danyang City here. You lead the Beiwei army to rush eastward all the way, raiding Yanling Ferry, Yanling Ferry, and Guan Ping's total strength is only [-] troops. Facing the attack of the Beiwei Army, he couldn't hold on for half a day. .”

"Take the Yanling Ferry and take the Lord's army across the Yangtze River. The governor really planned a strategy. In this way, Liu Bei's defensive deployment in Moling will all become a display, haha..."

Xue Rengui regained his energy immediately and laughed loudly.

Yue Fei smiled and said: "In that case, what are you waiting for? Go down to rectify the army, take a rest tomorrow, and sneak out of Danyang County in the early hours of the next day, go straight to Wu County, and aim for Yanling!"

It has to be said that Yue Fei and Liu Xiao have been together for a long time, and the tacit understanding is getting deeper and deeper.

When Liu Xiao came to the north bank of the Yangtze River, he was really worried. Both Xun You and Zhou Yu were at a loss.

"Gong Jin, you have lived on the left side of the river and are familiar with water warfare, but tell me, how should we break through the defense line of Liu Bei's navy on the other side?"

Xun You asked Zhou Yu.

Zhou Yu smiled wryly and said, "Gongda, I am familiar with water warfare. Looking at the world, I don't think anyone can surpass me in water warfare, but! We must have boats, we must have warships, ordinary fishing boats It can’t be compared with merchant ships. There must be warships. There are not enough warships. It is almost impossible to cross the river. There are a few of them back and forth, which is not a problem. Facing ordinary merchant ships, they can even scuttle our ships without us noticing. Without warships, no matter how powerful I am, it is a coincidence. It's hard for a woman to cook without rice..."

Liu Xiao also had a wry smile, he couldn't expect Zhou Yu to bring an army across the river alone, even if Zhou Yu had this ability, ordinary soldiers didn't have this ability, even Gao Chong and Zhao Yun were not so awesome ability.

"Originally, we didn't think about attacking Jiangdong in such a hurry, so the preparations for the war were all centered around fighting Cao Cao. We didn't rush to build warships, and we didn't even have much navy. Now even if we want to supervise the war with all our strength Ships, hundreds of warships can't be built in a short time, from material selection, to design, to cutting, splicing, painting, and air-drying, there is no three months, it is impossible..."

Zhou Yu continued.

Xun You nodded and said: "Three months is fast. Now wars are frequent and there are too many people fleeing. As for craftsmen, there are very few craftsmen. If you want to supervise the construction of warships quickly, you must have enough craftsmen. , Three or four months, we simply can't wait that long..."

Liu Xiao took a deep breath and replied: "We can't supervise the construction of a large number of warships in a short period of time, but it's not that there are other ways to think of!"

Zhou Yu quickly asked, "My lord, what's your plan?"

Liu Xiao sneered and said, "Someone always comes up with a solution. Orders are sent to keep the battalion on hold and build more camps to confuse Liu Bei's sentries in Jiangbei. It is a fishing boat that can only sit on one person, and it is not allowed to enter the water without orders, and the communication between the two sides of the strait must be stopped! Zilong, Ziyi!"

Zhao Yun and Tai Shici quickly stood up, bowed and said, "What are your orders, my lord?"

Liu Xiao said in a deep voice: "The two of you will lead [-] elite soldiers. Tonight, leave the ferry and rush east all the way to Yanling Ferry!"

"Yanling?"

Zhao Yun and Tai Shici looked at each other, not knowing why.

Zhao Yun said in a low voice: "My lord, although the north bank of Yanling Ferry is under our control, the former ferry was captured by the Jiangdong Army and almost all the warships were destroyed or fell into the hands of the Jiangdong Army. There are warships, and at the ferry on the south bank, there is still a force from Guan Ping stationed. Even if we have [-] troops, we can't cross the river calmly. Don't say me and Zi Yi, even if the governor Gong Jin goes there, it will be difficult to defeat Guan Ping. Ping, pass through the Yanling Ferry safely!"

Liu Xiao said with a smile: "We are not sure about crossing the Yangtze River, but isn't there Governor Yue in Jiangnan now? Don't worry, Yue Fei will definitely set his sights on Yanling if he can't win Moling. We will rush to Yanling now and say Maybe, when we arrive at Yanling, the Yanling Ferry is already under Yue Fei's control."
