Chapter 8 Destroy Xiao Mill

"Shi Shou!" The generals' eyes appeared and they said in unison.

"Ha! Ziling has the essence of military tactics, and the Shishou waterway is complex. It is destined to be the land of the scribes's defeated army!" Yun Yi said with a smile.

"When the Three Kingdoms were established, Liu Bei and Sun Quan joined hands to fight against Cao in Shishou. The territory is full of rivers and lakes, the river nets, lakes and depressions are densely intertwined, and the waterways are strange and changeable. It is a taboo for the sailors to march. Once the stone head is in the hands of our army, Wen Shihong can't return to Jiangling when he arrives at Baling. In Jiangling, he can't go to Baling. Our army is like holding Xiao Xian's throat and neck, and destroying him out is like turning his palm. Bu Tianzhi said excitedly.

"General Bu is really proficient in water warfare, and Xu admires it!" Xu Shiji praised. Bu Tianzhi and Xu Shiji are in charge of waterway people under the command of Yun Yi. They are known as "two heroes of divine arrows". The two also want to have a deep friendship. Xu Shiji has few admirers. Even Li Mi, he doesn't pay attention to it. This kind of praise is really unexpected.

"The praise of the world's achievements! It's thanks to Marshal Xu!" Bu Tianzhi said modestly that the two of them cherished each other in Yunyi's group.

"The strategy of attacking the east and the west is good, but Wen Shihong is not a general person. How can we transfer this 'tiger' on the ground into the water?" Shan Xiongxin doubted.

"Can you know why I'm going on an expedition this month?" Yun Yi pointed to the thousands of miles of river on the sand table, which made everyone suddenly feel that they were denounced and swallowed the domineering spirit of the world.

"It's September now. It's the autumn flood season of the big river. The river is soaring and the water is turbulent. It's a big taboo for the navy to send troops. Changlin Wangyi thought twice!" Chen Changlin, the number one figure of Kou Zhong's navy, came forward and suggested.

"Yes! I actually forgot that September is the period when the river rises. It's hard to predict the consequences. Please punish me!" Bu Tianzhi came forward to plead guilty. Indeed, he was a lieutenant general of the navy, and he was indeed guilty.

"Tianzhi doesn't have to blame himself. It's enough to make contributions this time!" Yun Yi forgave.

"My subordinates dare to ask Yi Shuai to suspend the dispatch of troops this month, and then enter the army when the water situation decreases." A resolute color flashed in Bu Tianzhi's eyes, and he suggested.

"Can you see the mystery of Zhong Shao?" Yun Yi did not say anything, but asked Kou Zhong.

"Our brothers are used to using strange soldiers, and the essence of this move is above the word 'qi'." Kou Zhong saw through Yun Yi's thoughts and said.

"The strange soldier?" The generals were all confused and worried.

"As the young commander said, Xiao Xian thought that it was not appropriate to send troops when the water rose, and he was bound to be lax in defense. If our army sent troops from Jiangxia from the waterway to Baling at this time, suddenly, Xiao Xian must be caught off guard and was not prepared enough. He would urgently transfer Wen Shihong back to Baling for defense, and the tiger in the north of the Yangtze River was obediently transferred from Jiangling." A flash of meaning flashed in Shen Luoyan's eyes and explained.

"What Luo Yan said is true. The soldiers are fast, and the opportunity cannot be missed. My divine arrow soldiers entered Xiangyang, and Xiao Xian still didn't know it. When Wen Shihong returned to help Baling, we attacked Jingmen and Yidu and went straight to Jiangling. With the momentum of thunder, we took Jiangling, which was the best strategy of the soldiers. Even if the Baling generals know that our army is attacking, they will be recruited in a hurry, but they can't respond to the enemy, and they will be caught in a catch!" Yun Yi said.

"But once Jiangling is attacked, there will be Yiling on the top, and Wen Shihong will send troops to rescue. What about our army?" Bu Tianzhi was worried.

"The place of Xiao Milling, south out of the Ling table, east away from Dongting. Our army attacked Baling, and the army was indeed in deep. If we can't take down Jiangling for a while, and wait for the reinforcements to be four episodes, we will suffer from the enemy and lose the evidence. At that time, it will be in danger!" Chen Changlin was also worried.

"Ha! It's not easy to deal with reinforcements. Our army only needs to abandon the boat ship and the river east and west of Jiangling, and let the boat ship fill the river. When the reinforcements of Yiling and Wen Shihong see it, a Jiangling must have been broken and dare not dare to enter lightly. Between Baling and Jiangling and Jiangling's sailors, it will take a long month. If they can't get Jiangling between the month, what else is the divine arrow army? Be able to dominate the world." Yun Yi smiled confidently and said as a countermeasure.

"But in this way, Wen Shihong will definitely escape back to Baling and become a big trouble!" Xu Shiji said.

"That's not necessarily the case. Ling Shao advocates that attacking Shishou is a cage specially set up for Wen Shihong!" Kou Zhong solved the puzzle.

"Cage?" Chen Changlin said doubtfully.

"Wen Shihong has been operating Baling for many years. The city is strong and has a lot of food. Although he fought bravely, he is conceited. Once he gets the news that Baling is besieged, he will inevitably ignore Xiao Xian's order and return to the division for rescue, because he believes that his army does not have the ability to attack Ba Ling in a few days." Xu Zi explained.

"This man is good at making good use of tricks and resourcefulness. As I have said before, after besieging Jiangling, he will abandon the boat ship and the east and west of Jiangling. Even if the Yiling defenders in the west attack, there is no need to worry. After taking down the stone head in the east, the sinking boat and the stone head downstream, Wen Shihong must think that this is a suspicious plan, and will be more firm that he will return to the division. Jiangling's determination. The last point is that his old mother is in Jiangling. Yun Yi added that Wen Shihong's filial piety has always been famous.

"So that's it!" Listening to the whole plan of the three Yunyi brothers, the generals were all determined, full of confidence, and said in unison, "Please order me to destroy Xiao Liang in one fell swoop!"

"Good! The generals will work together to fight down and calm down Xiao Liang. Yun Yi said in a loud voice and then looked at Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling, and the two nodded.

"Bu Tianzhi assisted the young commander to go out of Xiakou and led 20,000 water troops to attack Baling from the waterway for the East Road Army. Chen Changlin and Marshal Xu went out of Xiangzhou Road. As soon as Wen Shihong came out of Baling, he led 10,000 sailors to attack Shishou by land and became the North Road Army. I will lead the rest of the generals to the West Road Army, and order Cheng Zhijie and Qin Qiong as the vanguard to attack Jingmen, attack Yidu, and take Jiangling within ten days. When Yun Yi saw his brother's signal, the command was determined.

......

Everything was going very well. Kou Zhong beat the gongs and drums. He was afraid that people would not know that he was going to attack Xiao Liang. He claimed to be a sailor of 50,000. With the help of a huge ship like the Sanlong, he attacked the city and pulled out the fortress from the waterway. It was unstoppable and forced into Baling. Xiao Xian was shocked when he heard this. It was too late to recruit soldiers (fielders), so he hurriedly transferred the scribes back to Baling to guard. Yun Yi was overjoyed to receive the news that Wen Shihong led 40,000 sailors out of Baling, and immediately sent troops to attack Jingmen. Without Wen Shihong, the city in Jiangbei seems to have lost its backbone and is vulnerable. Within three days, he went to the two cities in a row, and took Jingmen and Yidu, the gateways of Baling, under his command, and then led 50,000 cavalry and went straight to Jiangling to surround them.

Wen Shihong was too confident and a filial person. Hearing that Jiangling was besieged, he immediately returned to Jiangling despite Xiao Xian's order. When Wen Shihong's 30,000 sailors returned to Jiangling, Xu Ziling led the troops to take down the stone head with the momentum of lightning. According to Yunyi's plan, the sinking of the boat and the river, Wen Shihong saw that the march was faster. When Wen Shihong came to Jiangling, he saw a divine arrow flag inserted in the head of Jiangling City. Seeing this, he knew that he had been tricked and immediately retreated.

Yun Yi immediately led the generals and the captured sailor to catch up. When Wen Shi Hong went to the tortuous waterway, he encountered an ambush of Xu Ziling and Chen Changlin. Coincidentally, Yun Yi also chased him from the back of Wen Shihong. Under the attack, the Hou Liang sailor was beaten by the divine arrow army and was killed. Nearly 10,000 people died from drowning, and more than 200 boats were obtained, which captured Wen Shihong. Yun Yi was both soft and hard, and even used Wen Shihong's old mother to persuade Wen Shihong to surrender. Five days later, Yunyi successfully took down Yiling, which had not been rescued by Jiangling, and the power of Xiao Xianjiangbei was completely transferred to Yunyi.

Resting for three days, Yun Yi ordered Xu Shiji and the generals of the army department to stay in Jiangbei and stabilize the power north of the river. He personally led Wen Shihong and the 20,000 sailors, met Xu Ziling and Chen Changlin, with a total of 30,000 soldiers, down the river, met with Kou Zhong and Dongting Lake, and killed Baling Xiao Mill together.

Night, Dongting Lake, late September.

The three brothers sat in the cabin with the Three Dragons, sitting by the window, and there were several jars of wine on the table. A bright moon hangs high outside the window, and the water surface of Dongting Lake is turbulent. Under the moon, the water of the lake is like a wild dragon going to the sea and a tiger leaping over the mountain.

The autumn fog is confused and condenses the moon shadow, and the boiling ship is like a light devouring the soul.

"Xiao Xian's generation of heroes is difficult to become a great man. According to the report of the dark group, Xiao Xian is still thinking about the military power of the meritorious officials of the later Liang. It seems that he is about to reach his limit. Yun Yi poured down a cup of Erguotou and said with regret.

"This is also expected. With the rebellion of Xiangyushan and Wen Shihong, with Xiao Xian's stubborn and suspicious style, who else can he believe?" Kou Zhong looked at the bright moon outside the window and said thoughtfully.

"This time we besiege Baling, we must not be angry. If Xiao Xian surrenders, we will have an end to his kindness and resentment. Don't kill him, otherwise there will be chaos." A look of compassion flashed in Xu Ziling's eyes and persuaded him. If among the three brothers, the one who wants to kill Xiao Xian the most must be Xu Ziling, but he advocates not killing Xiao Xian, Su's great enemy. On the one hand, he is for the people in the south of the Yangtze River, and on the other hand, he is for the cause of their brother.

"Ziling, I don't have to be polite to my brothers. Come on! Zhong Shao! Everything is in the wine!" Yun Yi looked at Xu Ziling, and his heart was full of peace before the war. With this brother, any words were superfluous.

"Ding!" The three of them clinked glasses and drank all at once.

......

Yun Yi's combined troops totaled 50,000, and Xiao Xian's sailors were 70,000, but the difference between the two was undoubtedly different. Xiao Xian's 70,000 sailors was his last family.

The so-called time is not as good as the place, and the place is not as good as the people. Xiao Xian's "Great Purge" campaign has long caused the extreme discord between the generals, commanders and soldiers of the rear Liang. Many generals in the 70,000 navy had a rebellious heart. In addition, the new defeat of the rear Liang army, the Optimus Optimus scribes Hong of the Later Liang had surrendered to Yunyi, and his morale was extremely low, and his combat effectiveness could be imagined. The most important thing is that the strength of Yunyi's ship can be said to be against the sky. Since Kou Zhong got on the Sanlong ship, attacked the city and pulled out the fortress, he was invincible and was no longer willing to get off the ship.

The Sanlong ship surpasses the shipping technology and shipbuilding methods of the Tang Dynasty for nearly a thousand years. Through the pedaling of wheels, it replaces the speed of the paddles and paddles, which is more than twice the speed of today's ships. It also increases the threat of sinking with a water compartment, which is greatly avoided. Under the collision of other ships, the injured place must be the enemy. Each ship is a large ship with ten masts and ten sails, and Yun Yi even implants steel into the ship's board. Regardless of shape and strength, one is comparable to the enemy's three. The most powerful thing is that the ship is equipped with a large crossbow, and the ground is full of giant thunder arrows, which is as powerful as artillery.

Yun Yi's generals and soldiers are harmonious, united as one, and his momentum is like a wild dragon entering the sea, and he is bound to step on Xiao Xian under his feet. Hundreds of ships on both sides confront Dongting Lake. The ships of both sides are lined up, and there is a tendency to cross 800 miles of Dongting Lake.

The sound of the horn sounded from the boat and spread all over the lake. The enemy ship put down one long speedboat after another, and people kept jumping into the boat. Hundreds of speedboats gathered in front of Yunyi's ship for a moment, showing their well-trained efficiency and speed.

Yun Yi naturally did not show weakness. A burst of thunder and arrows shot in unison. In a moment, hundreds of enemy speedboats turned into flying ash, completely smashing the heart of the rear Liang navy.

In the battle, the heart of war is equivalent to the god in the martial arts competition and the spirit of the martial arts. No matter how good a person's martial arts is, if he is an idiot, failure is doomed. Similarly, the heart of war is the decisive factor for the success or failure of war, which is also a necessary condition in the history of war to win more with less.

Many of the sailors under Xiao Xian have begun to flee back. Seeing this, other ships still have the courage to continue to fight, and they are also scattered. Seeing this, Xiao Xian returned the light and fully showed his ability. He shouted, "Someone dares to retreat, and there is no mercy to kill!" After saying that, he took out his bow and arrow and shot a general who turned around and fled a hundred meters away with an arrow. "Wow!" Several sailor generals fell into the water in a row, and the chaotic situation was temporarily alleviated.

"Sergeants, the enemy is not as many as our ships. Go! If you kill an enemy soldier, you will be rewarded with ten taels of gold, if you kill a general, you will be rewarded with a hundred taels of gold, and if you kill a commander, you will be rewarded with a thousand taels of gold. Xiao Xian roared as he walked to the end.

"Borried in Dongting."

"Death in Dongting!" Xiao Xian shouted his slogan. The result was really effective. The soldiers under his command were all excited and shouted.

Just as Xiao Xian was hysterical, the three Yunyi brothers were sitting on the deck of the Sanlong ship at this moment, basking in the sun, drinking and chatting, which was so comfortable.

"Yun Shao, our value seems to have dropped a lot!" Kou Zhong's eyesight was the best. He looked at the angry image of Xiao Xian, who was hundreds of feet away, and joked.

"Yes!" Yun Yi shook the wine in his hand, looked in the direction of Baling, and said, "In those years, Li Mi and Little Princess Shan wanted our heads for ten thousand taels of gold. Xiao Xian was good. The three of us were only worth 3,000 taels of gold together. So stingy, no wonder he died so quickly and thoroughly!"

"Are the two marshals here to command the battle?" Xu Ziling looked at the joking look of the two and pretended to ask.

"Where is Bu Tianzhi?" Hearing this, Yun Yi came to his senses and called out.

"The end will be!" Bu Tianzhi, who was standing and watching the war in general, replied in a solemn voice.

"The cost of the thunder arrow is not low. Stop the thunder arrow quickly. We are now in a downwind position and switch to a rocket. And they want to fight hard, so what are we afraid of? You take 30 three dragon giant ships to play with Xiao Xian. Remember not to kill Xiao Xian by mistake, otherwise the military law will deal with it! Yun Yi ordered that he had forgotten that Xiao Xian was stingy before, and he didn't feel that he was also very stingy in his words.

"The last general is ordered!" After Bu Tianzhi took the order, he turned around and left.

"Where is Chen Changlin?" Kou Zhong also imitated Yun Yi's words, which made Xu Ziling beside him speechless, but Yunyi had a feeling of watching the imitation show.

"The last will!" Chen Changlin replied very cooperatively.

"The cost of the giant ship is not low. We don't play the giant ship. You prepare 500 light speedboats, capture the soldiers who are hit by the Three Dragons or throw themselves into the lake, and be integrated into the team. You can't kill them at will, otherwise they will be disposed by military law!" Kou Zhong said shamelessly that he actually accepted the results in front of Yun Yi, and he didn't care about it. However, Yun Yi did not look dissatisfied. Indeed, Kou Zhong wanted to take Jiang Du, and what he lacked was the navy. Of course, Yun Yi would not object to this.

With a tough attack, the two sides are ready to fight a battle to determine the victory or defeat. Another trumpet sounded. The murderous atmosphere is severe. Each ship is loaded with thousands of fierce people, and there are clouds on Dongting Lake. Xiao Xian was ready to go, and Yun Yi was at the head of the battle. The ships on both sides surged like bees.

"Bang! ..." A sound made by the impact of the ship, but the three brothers sat down on the chair, closed their eyes, and their intentions were leisurely.

Bu Tianzhi shouted, "Rocket!" In an in an air, the space on Dongting Lake was densely covered with powerful arrows flying towards the enemy boat.

......
