Chapter 150 Facing the White Emperor

Baidi City is built on the mountain and adjacent to the river. It is not only the gateway to Badong County, but also guards the passage from the water to Shuzhong.

The city is not very large, and the terrain is dangerous. Gao Mingzi firmly guards the city with 5,000 troops.

Recently, due to the blockade of the Jingzhou water army, there are almost no boats on the river, and some are only small boats of fishermen.

Chu Mingzi knows Lu Qiang's intention very well, but he can't help it. After all, his brother has just taken charge of Yizhou, and the soldiers and civilians in Shuzhong are not completely returning home.

Qi Mingzi did not agree with his brother's move to submit to the State of Qin. Although this was a helpless move, he knew that once this move spread, their family would be rejected by the scholars of the world. The people in Shu may not support them.

It's just that he didn't count this kind of thing, and when he got the news, Qin Jun had already gone south, and there was no use saying anything. He had to go all out to cooperate with his brother.

Like his brother's thought, Qian Mingzi also thought that once the Qin army went south, the strong Jingzhou people would definitely deal with the Qin army with all their strength, so as to relax their monitoring.

Shu Road is difficult to go. Since the river was blocked by the Jingzhou water army, the whole Shuzhong has been difficult. Although a series of policies to benefit the people have been implemented, the time is still short and nothing can be seen at all.

Qion Mingzi's nerves have been tense for days. After knowing that Qin Jun went south, he finally relaxed, but he didn't wait for him to breathe evenly! Early this morning, detectives came to report that a large number of Jingzhou warships appeared on the river. The sails covered the sky and the sun, and I don't know how many people and horses there are.

Ciao Mingzi was shocked, but it was obviously more than that that could scare him. Soon there was a scout to report that He Wuji was suitable to send troops. Now the striker has arrived 60 miles away from Baidi City.

Chu Mingzi is a little stupid. What does Lu Qiang want to do? Doesn't he know that Qin's army has gone south to attack him? Time was running out, and it was no longer allowed for Mingzi to think too much. While sending people to report to Baohong, who was stationed in Badong County, he summoned all the soldiers to defend the city.

Baidi City is in a rush between water and land. Once this place is broken, Badong County will be finished, and if Badong is lost, the door of Shu will also open to the Jingzhou army.

However, Qiang did not know that Lu Qiang's order to He Wuji was only seize Baidi City. After all, the two sides of the war was too much pressure on Jingzhou, and as long as Baidi City was taken, Badong and even the whole Shu would be Lu Qiang's pocket.

Although there are not many defenders in Baidi City, Chu Mingzi is confident to defend it, because Baidi City is built on the mountain and faces the river, and the only passage also passes through the city.

However, the road in front of Baidi City is extremely narrow, and the army can't be expanded at all, so it is difficult to capture here on land.

Although the water can bypass Baidi City, the defenders of Baidi City can attack passing ships condescendingly, so although Jingzhou's water army is strong, they have not bypassed Baidi City.

Based on such geographical advantages, Cai Mingzi believed that the Jingzhou army would not be able to beat it. However, he was not too arrogant and still wanted to send more reinforcements to him in order to defend the White Emperor City more firmly.

In the face of such a strong city, of course, He Wuji, who has been fighting for a long time, will not use the lives of soldiers to pave the shop, and even if he fills it with human lives, he may not be able to break through the city. Therefore, the infantry attack is only a deterrent, and the main attack is still on the water.

No matter how wide the river is, it is still a river. The scene of hundreds of warships across the river and thousands of sails is really spectacular.

Jiang Dalong stood on the main ship with a cold look and looked at the Baidi City built halfway up the mountain in the distance. His naval division was the main force in this battle. It is false to say that he is not nervous. After all, it is not a water battle.

Baidi City is condescending. It can block the whole waterway with a crossbow machine, and even set up several catapults on the wall so that it can attack enemy ships in the distance.

Such a city is definitely a hard bone for the attackers. But no matter what kind of bone it is, since Lord Lu has ordered it, he must take it down.

Far away from the range of the catapult, Jiang Dalong gave an order, and all the warships anchored and formed a water village on the side of the river.

The Jingzhou Water Army's move confused the ready-to-go Qi Mingzi army. What is the Jingzhou Army going to do? Tired, take a break before playing?

Someone quickly reported to Bao Mingzi. Bao Mingzi pondered for a moment and understood that the Jingzhou army would not start attacking until the evening. I can't help sneering and thinking, can I attack at night?

Since the Jingzhou army does not attack, there is no need to waste all the people here. Under the order of Qi Mingzi, except for the necessary vigilance, all the other soldiers rest on the spot and wait to fight back against the Jingzhou army at night.

Jiang Dalong did not start attacking until night. Like He Wuji thought, he could not use human life and warships to add to the top. In broad daylight, the sight can be extremely far away, and the enemy's accuracy of both the crossbow machine and the catapult will not be too bad, but it may not be at night. Although the damage is inevitable, it can also be minimized.

As the sky darkened, countless torches were lit in Baidi City. Coupled with the moonlight of the night sky, although the sight was not as good as the day, it was similar.

Qiao Mingzi looked at the dark Jingzhou Marine Camp in the distance and sneered secretly. What else do you have?

After ordering the soldiers to strengthen their vigilance, Qi Mingzi walked to another wall. There was a camp there, but He Wuji also did nothing after he set up the camp.

In the heart of Yao Mingzi, the real threat comes from here, so he focuses on this side.

Seeing that the night was getting darker and darker, the Jingzhou sailor's camp, like a giant beast attached to the river, finally had a movement.

In the night, countless boats went up against the water. There were no lights on the boats, but it could still be seen that they were densely full of soldiers.

When the general guarding the wall on this side saw this scene, he couldn't help laughing. The general expected it to be really good. Does the Jingzhou army want to use the dark to play wolf tactics? Our people are not those fools in Beifu.

After the boat approached, the guards gave an order, and the soldiers immediately pulled long-range offensive and defensive weapons such as crossbows and catapults and fired at the fleet in the river.

With so many ships, there is no need to aim at all, and ships and people can't be compared with people. With such a dense formation, ships can't rotate at all.

Under this indiscriminate shooting, only the sound of crossbows and the cracking sound of stones hitting the board sounded on the river from time to time.

However, to the surprise of the defenders, they did not hear many screams from the Jingzhou army.

"It shouldn't be! Under this kind of attack, the Jingzhou army did not even have a place to hide, and many soldiers standing on the ship were knocked into the water. How could there be no scream?

Just as the general was puzzled, a soldier under his hand suddenly shouted, "General, we have been fooled. The ship is a dummy"

As the broken fleet approached, the defenders finally saw that the boats were indeed dummy.

"Damn, the Jingzhou army is cunning. They are trying to consume our arrows and stones! Brothers, look at it before launching"

Before the general finished speaking, another soldier shouted: "General, another ship has come out of Jingzhou Shuizhai"

Do you still want to play this trick?

"Don't rush to launch, wait for the enemy to approach and see clearly before launching"

The general finally learned to be obedient this time, which seemed to confirm his idea. The boat was still full of motionless soldiers. Hundreds of small boats loaded with thousands of "dummy" slowly rowed to the surface of Baidi City.

In the subconscious of the general, the target of the Jingzhou army was Baidi City, so after being fooled, he did not order to attack these boats rowed from the foot of Baidi City.

Looking at the motionless soldiers on the boat, the defenders of Baidi City couldn't help laughing. It turned out that these boats were still dummy men, otherwise why didn't they attack?

But they couldn't laugh soon, because from afar, they suddenly found that after leaving their range, the dummy on the boat suddenly moved.

The general was shocked. He understood the real intention of the Jingzhou army. Once a large number of Jingzhou troops land behind Baidi City, what is the use of Baidi City here?

At this moment, in the dark, countless boats came out of the Jingzhou Marine Division camp.

Seeing this scene, the general's lungs almost exploded. He ordered angrily that he did not need to care about the arrows. He must stop the Jingzhou army and immediately ordered someone to tell the information to Bao Mingzi.

This time, the general obviously miscalculated again, because this time he also came out as a dummy.

The generals are about to cry. Are there so many boats pulled by the Jingzhou navy? Isn't this a loser?

Cai Mingzi, who received the news, was shocked and rushed to this wall without any more precautions.

Standing on the high wall and looking at the river through the fire and moonlight, I saw that the river was in a mess, and the boats broken by crossbows and stones floated on the water. It was so dense that there was almost no water light.

Under the two rounds of shooting, nearly half of the arrows and stones have been consumed. Gao Mingzi knows that it can't go on like this. Baidi City is condescending, mainly relying on these weapons to resist the enemy. Once it is consumed, what if the enemy rushes up? The Jingzhou army has far more troops than its own.

What worries Qian Mingzi more is the thousands of people who have passed by. Although it is not realistic to use these thousands of people to attack Badong County, it is like a thorn. It is stuck between Baidi City and Badong County, and Baidi City is no different from Gucheng.

Thinking of this, immediately send someone to inform Qiong that at dawn, you must send troops to destroy this Jingzhou army.

Looking at the Jingzhou Marine Camp, which still had no half-igniting light in the distance, a shadow surged into the heart of Jia Mingzi.

Jingzhou Marine Division Camp.

After three rounds of attack, Jiang Dalong has thrown five bodies to the ground with admiration for He Wuji. If it weren't for He Wuji's plan, I don't know how many people he would lose?

Looking at the moon, Jiang Dalong gave an order, and the gate of the Shuizhai camp opened, and dozens of Qiandan warships slowly sailed out of the water village and headed for Baidi City in the distance.

Before Yao Mingzi left, he also saw the black warship of Jingzhou Marine Division. He knew that the general attack of Jingzhou Marine Division was afraid to begin.

The facts quickly confirmed his idea that the warship on the surface had not yet reached the range of the crossbow, and suddenly there was a shocking shout at the wall on the other side...
