Back to the Three Kingdoms

In the hall of Jingzhou Governor's Mansion, the lights are brightly lit, and the lights are intertwined, so it is not lively.

After drinking for three rounds, Liu Biao said with a gratified expression: "The general is here for help. I am really grateful!" Chen Lang smiled and said, "You are not welcome, I'm just calling for a thief!" Liu Biao turned to the north. The ground arched his hand and said in gratitude: "Your Majesty, God, the minister is broken to pieces for nothing in return!"

Chen Lang didn't want to say these hypocritical words anymore, so he changed the subject and said: "My lord, what is the situation of the battle now?"

Liu Biao couldn't help showing a look of sorrow, and Cai Hao, who was sitting opposite Chen Lang, said: "The situation is not very good. A few days ago, the Jiangdong army struck across the river and the offensive was very fierce, but our army's morale was low. The army’s offensive, but I’m afraid that the line of defense along the river will eventually be unguarded!” Then he said with a lingering fear: “The navy led by Zhou Yu was too powerful. Our army had lost all three battles with it, and the loss would be great! Seeing the opportunity quickly, I am afraid that the navy has already been wiped out at this moment!" All the civil servants in Jingzhou also showed a sad expression on their faces.

Chen Lang ordered Zhao Yun to spread out the map he carried in the middle of the hall. Chen Lang got up and walked to the map. Other people also got up and surrounded him.

Chen Lang pointed to the line of the Yangtze River to the east of Jingzhou and asked: "Where is the main enemy army now and where is the Jingzhou army defending?"

Cai Hao immediately pointed to the Chibi Road on the east bank of the Yangtze River: "Now the main force of the Jiangdong Army is stationed in Chibi, and the land and water joint camp is more than ten miles!"

Chen Lang looked at Chibi, frowning and said, "Telling soldiers in Chibi, do you want to break through Wulin and directly capture Jingzhou from the road?" Cai Hao and others nodded, and Cai Hao said, "Presumably they think that way!"

Chen Lang looked at Chibi and muttered to himself: "Zhou Yu is cunning, how can his intentions be clearly revealed?" Then he asked Cai Hao: "How many troops are there to guard Shiyang, Hanyang, and Wulin?" Cai Hao Said: "In addition to the 30,000 soldiers and horses guarded by Wulin, Shiyang and Hanyang each have 10,000 infantry guards. The guardian of Shiyang is Huang Zhong, the guardian of Hanyang is Wei Yan, and the guardian of Wulin is Wen. Hire." Chen Lang suddenly realized, and secretly said: No wonder Zhou Yu failed to achieve a breakthrough even with such a big advantage. It turned out that he met three famous players in the world!

Chen Lang asked again: "What is the layout of the Jingzhou Army?"

Cai Tao pointed to Shiyang Shuizhai Road not far to the west of Shiyang: "Our navy is currently concentrated in this place!" This Shiyang Shuizhai is located in the Xiangjiang River, while Shiyang and Hanyang are sandwiched between the two places. The entrance of the Xiangjiang River into the Yangtze River. If Shiyang and Hanyang fall, the Jiangdong Army can attack the Jingzhou navy in the Shiyang Water Village by land and water. If the Jingzhou navy is defeated, the Jiangdong Army can go up the Xiangjiang River and reach Jingzhou directly. Therefore, Hanyang Shiyang is here. Two places are critical.

Cai Hao pointed to Shiyang, Hanyang and Wulin, and said: "Except for the 50,000 soldiers and horses of the three places, the rest of the army is led by Cai Zhongcai He and Huarong, thinking that the three will respond."

Chen Lang looked at the map and frowned: "This arrangement is really comprehensive! Although you can't say it wrong, it is too passive and completely defensive! The so-called long-term defense must be lost, this arrangement will be broken by the Jiangdong army sooner or later! "

When everyone heard this, they couldn't help worrying, and Liu Biao asked hopefully: "I wonder if the general has any tricks?"

Chen Lang said: "To survive the crisis in Jingzhou, defense alone is far from enough. It must attack. Only by giving Jiangdong Army a head-on attack can the opponents be discouraged and enable Jingzhou to survive this crisis!" Chen Lang pointed. Hua Rong said: "The reserve force should not be placed on Hua Rong. It should be concentrated on a certain point in Shiyang, Hanyang or Wulin. Together with my eagle and Yang army, it will form a military advantage at a certain point to achieve a breakthrough against the enemy. Only in this way is it possible to turn defeat into victory!"

When everyone heard the words, they only felt their eyes bright, and Kuai Liang couldn't help but praised: "The words of the general make me wait to see the sun! The general is truly a famous general in the world!"

However, Liu Biao said in a worried and genuine voice: "If you do this, if the Jiangdong Army breaks through where the main force is not, wouldn't it be dangerous for Jingzhou!"

Chen Lang said: "There are certain risks! But under the current circumstances, it is impossible to win without taking risks!" Liu Biao hesitated.

Chen Lang frowned and said, "Master Liu, since you have asked me to retreat from the enemy, you should let me take full responsibility, otherwise there will be no way to fight this battle!"

Everyone's eyes focused on Liu Biao. Liu Biao hesitated. He only felt that Chen Lang made a lot of sense, but he was worried about whether there would be any discrepancies. For a while, he only felt that he was in a dilemma, and it was difficult to make a decision.

At this moment, a blood-stained officer rushed in anxiously, knelt down with a thump, and reported in a hurry: "It's not good, the lord, Jiangdong army general Huang Gai led the army to attack Shiyang suddenly, Huang Zhong The generals will finally come back to rescue!"

When everyone heard this, Liu Biao exclaimed, "How can this be possible! Isn't the enemy's main attacking direction Ulin in front of Chibi? Why would they go to Hanyang?"

Chen Lang said: "Zhou Yu's use of troops is like this. The reality is fluctuating, I am afraid that the army in front of Chibi is just an illusion released by him!"

Liu Biao and all Jingzhou officials were panicked. The help-seeking officer said anxiously: "General Huang Zhong asks the lord to send reinforcements quickly, otherwise Shi Yang will fall!"

Liu Biao didn't know what to do, Kuai Yue hurriedly clasped his fists and said, "I beg the Lord to send reinforcements!"

Cai Hao hurriedly said: "No! Lord, the enemy army has been planning a sneak attack for a long time, and Shi Yang must be unable to defend it. Sending troops to rescue is in vain! On the contrary, the reinforcements sent out may be in trouble again. If this is the case, Jingzhou will do it. It's really dangerous!" Although Kuai Yue Kuailiang is an expert in politics, he doesn't understand military affairs. Hearing Cai Wei's remarks, he didn't know what to do.

At a loss, Liu Biao couldn't help looking at Chen Lang, as if he had grabbed a straw for life, and said anxiously, "Please also ask the general to help me through this disaster!"

It is said that Zhou Yu adopted the strategy of attacking the east and the west, deliberately setting up a camp in Chibi, as if all the main forces of the army were stationed here, coupled with the previous actions of attacking Ulin, completely caused the Jiangdong army to prepare to cross the Yangtze River from Chibi, break Wulin and then straight. The illusion of going to Jingzhou. Therefore, the attention of Liu Biao and the Jingzhou Army was almost all in the direction of Wulin. However, Shi Yang, whose strategic position is equally important, has only 10,000 soldiers and horses to defend.

Seeing that the plan had been accomplished, Zhou Yu asked Sun Jian to send General Huang Gai led 50,000 elite soldiers to attack Shiyang. Fortunately, Huang Zhong didn't take it lightly because of Zhou Yu's illusion, and he always took precautions. Therefore, Huang Zhong's army was discovered by Huang Zhong as soon as he smuggled across the Yangtze River. Huang Gai thought that he could take Shi Yang in one go, so he led the army to rush towards Shi Yang! Shiyang, an army village on the east bank of the Xiangjiang River on the west bank of the Yangtze River, named Shiyang because it is located on the south side of a huge stone mountain. It was originally a village, but since the battle between the Jingzhou Army and the Jiangdong Army, the people here have been taken away. Enter and build a military village through reinforcement. Shiyang is next to the Xiangjiang River and overlooks the Yangtze River. Its strategic position is very important.

The fifty thousand elite soldiers led by Huang Gai rushed towards Shi Yang, but suddenly the army was hit by Jianyu Feishi! Huang Gai was shocked and furious, and the army intensified the onslaught! However, the defending army defended the city, and Huang Gai deliberately attacked the heavy siege equipment before it came. Therefore, the Jiangdong army failed to break through the defense of the Jingzhou army for a long time! The arrows fired by the two sides flew randomly in the sky, and countless corpses had fallen under the army!

Just as the two sides were fighting endlessly, Shiyang Northeast suddenly made loud noises of fighting drums and thunder, and general Huang Zhong led three thousand elites from the diagonal stabbing outside the city to the Huang Gai army! Huang Gai was caught off guard, and the three thousand elites led by Huang Zhong entered the army in a sudden chaos! At the same time, the defenders in the military village broke out of the military village and attacked Huang Gai army with Huang Zhong! Huang Gai was also able to make the army retreat to the waterfront. After he led more than 10,000 elites to death, he saw flesh and blood flying on the battlefield, and the conflict between the two sides was inextricably killed!

Huang Zhong finally repelled Huang Gai, but at this moment, the main force of the Huang Gai army was already standing up on the river bank and waiting for it! Seeing that the opportunity was lost, Huang Zhong resolutely led his troops back to the Shiyang Junzhai, Guzhai defended himself!

After this battle, Huang Gai did not dare to be careless, so that the army formed a self-defense, ready to wait for the heavy siege equipment to come up before launching a storm.

Soon after, heavy siege equipment such as catapult lathes and crossbow rush vehicles were transported across the river. Huang Gai then launched another fierce attack on Shiyang Junzhai. The rain of stones fired by the catapult was overwhelming, and the city rushing vehicles continued to smash the wall of the village, and the huge noises continued one after another! Huang Zhong tried every means to destroy the enemy's siege equipment, but Huang Gai had been prepared for a long time, and Huang Zhong's several attempts failed.

After two days, the originally sturdy Shiyang Junzhai was already full of defects! Seeing that the time was ripe, Huang Gai ordered the army to attack! Tens of thousands of Jiangdong army elites swarmed! Huang Zhong frowned, roared, and rushed into the enemy group with a big knife! Upon seeing this, everyone bravely roared up! The soldiers and horses of the two sides collided with each other near the wall in a **** battle! The Jiangdong Army charged desperately, and the Jingzhou Army desperately resisted. Huang Zhong was invincible among the crowd with a single spring and autumn sword. Like a tiger fighting a pack of wolves, he was so **** that he didn't know how many people had been killed! However, the battle situation was gradually deteriorating, and the Jingzhou Army was gradually unable to sustain the heavy casualties!

At this moment, the officer Huang Zhong sent to ask for help rushed back. Huang Zhong was overjoyed and asked anxiously: "Where are the reinforcements?" Then the officer shook his head indignantly and said: "The lord thinks that Shi Yang cannot be defended, and refuses to send soldiers!" Huang Zhong's heart sank to the bottom immediately.

The officer said anxiously, "Retreat, the general! The lord has already given up here, and if you continue to fight, you can only sacrifice in vain!!"

Huang Zhong glared, and shouted: "The lord gives up, but I don't give up! As a general, Huang Zhong is responsible for defending the land. If I can't defend the land, I would rather die!"
