●The 200,000 Taiping Army, which was leading the army to attack Wu, advanced along the river under Guo Ye, and started from Zigui to form a step by step. The Jiangdong Army retreated step by step, losing more than 30 formations in a row. Although it retreated in one battle, the Jiangdong Army also lost nearly 10,000 troops in the continuous defeat...

August is like a woman's face, changing as soon as she says it.

But when the Taiping Army advanced from the ground between the mountains and forests by the river, the weather was not beautiful, the rain had not fallen, and the heat was hard to bear, Guo Ye ordered the army to enter the forest to escape the heat. Every time he further ordered the soldiers to camp and advance all the way to the Xiling area, the military camps at the beginning and end of the Taiping Army were hundreds of miles apart. If you could see from a high altitude, it would be a winding dragon crawling in the mountains.

The pavilion is convenient in front of it. Although the pavilion is a small place, it is a place that military strategists must compete for. It lies at the mouth of the Yangtze River Gorge, with peaks and peaks on both sides of the north and south. From ancient times to later generations, many familiar battles were born here.

Wei Yan led the vanguard army and was naturally the arrow of the three armies. He was depressed or worried in the tent.

Entering the Yidao, going down the pavilion, and sweeping over Yiling, this route is right. It is correct to occupy the gorge of this section of the Yangtze River to curb the navy in Jiangdong.

But Wei Yan looked back and saw that 200,000 Taiping Army camped and set up camp along the way. If he stepped into the pavilion, he would definitely have to camp and rest first. Then the Taiping Army camped for 700 miles at both ends!

This is a big taboo for military strategists!

To seize Yiling, concentrating troops to fight down is the best choice. Now, the battalion is 700 miles long, and the Taiping Army's military strength advantage disappears. On the contrary, if the Jiangdong Army concentrates its troops and counterattacks all the way, the Taiping Army's military strength will be limited to the enemy, giving the opponent a chance to defeat one by one.

How could there be a reason why a camp can resist the enemy for seven hundred miles?

Wei Yan received the military order to rest for five days, and then led the vanguard army into the pavilion.

Walking back and forth in the tent, Wei Yan's eyebrows were frozen, thinking about it and feeling inappropriate.

He is the vanguard, and the vanguard troops are the weather vane of the three armies. If they win, they will be as powerful as rainbows. If they lose, they will be as strong as mountains. It is the driving force and morale of the entire army. Wei Yan deeply understands that the 20,000 soldiers under his command are all new troops, and they are prisoners released from prison. The military discipline of these people is not strict enough, so winning battles will naturally be smooth. But if they encounter a tough battle, it will be an irreversible defeat!

How high can an army that has been trained for less than half a year?

Wei Yan lifted the curtain and wanted to tell Guo Ye about his interests again, but he hesitated for a moment and sighed and gave up.

Suddenly, Wei Yan remembered a sentence that Guo Jia asked Guo Ye to pass on to him when he was training this army, and his rough face showed a shock./very literary/

As his eyes rolled, Wei Yan felt a little doubt in his heart.

Could it be?!

When the Taiping Army was ready to step onto the Yiling Mountain, a fleet of ships at the foot of Wushan slowly showed its outline at the upper reaches of the Yangtze River at the foot of Wushan.

The morning light shines, the refreshing river breeze passes by, and dozens of tower ships on the surging river surface are descending down the river, the most spectacular ones leading the fleet are the most spectacular.

The bow and dragon head opened its mouth, spitting out huge conical spikes, the hull was wide and thick, and the canvas stood like a towering sky.

There were fully armed soldiers standing guard all around the deck, and the hull wings were installed side by side with the crossbow developed by Ma Jun.

The bow of the dragon head boat that is unhindered by the wind and waves, Guo Jia, who is dressed in white, stands proudly with his hands behind his back, looking at the magnificent Yangtze River and the green scenery on both sides.

"Xingba, do you hate me?"

Gan Ning, who was standing behind Guo Jia, smiled embarrassedly and stood beside him, Dian Wei, Xu Chu, Gao Shun, Zhang Yan, Zhou Tai, and Jiang Qin and Mengda all looked at Gan Ning with a teasing look.

All the elite troops of the Taiping Army were released!

Gan Ning, who has experienced many battles, is indeed a little ashamed now. In fact, he has already realized the sacrificial consciousness.

Although Guo Jia instructed him to violate the order and Guo Jia was secretly provoking his disagreement with Wu Yi, these things that outsiders didn't know fell on Gan Ning, and he had to bear the responsibility, especially when the north attack on Xiangfan was not successful and the three counties of Jingzhou were lost.

However, Guo Jia did not punish him at all. When his prison car arrived in Chengdu, Guo Jia announced that he would take Gan Ning into prison, but in fact he was hiding it. Today, Guo Jia took a boat out of Badong and went straight down the river. Gan Ning was taken by Guo Jia.

I thought I would miss the battle to destroy Wu, but I didn’t expect that Gan Ning would catch up!

"Haha, how dare I? It's just that the lord can say hello to I in advance next time? This is really a matter of time for Mo Jiang to be frightened for a long time."

Gan Ning replied with a smile, but made the generals around him laugh.

"You dare to call Sun Quan a dog Gan Xingba, who is afraid of being a dog?"

Dian Weilang laughed loudly and rushed into the sky.

Zhang Yan shouted mercilessly: "Gan Xingba, you are lying and dare to deceive your lord. You are so brave, haha."

Seeing everyone taking the opportunity to take the blame, Gan Ning quickly clasped his fists at them and begged for mercy: "Everyone, you guys, it's a mistake, why are you sad and afraid of death? I've actually put life and death aside for a long time."

"Ah, the Grand Governor is really shameless." Zhou Tai did not give Gan Ning any affection.

But Guo Jia turned around and faced Gan Ning. Everyone put away their smiles and looked at them with a solemn expression.

"Xingba, it's my fault to make you suffer"

Seeing Guo Jia's solemn look, Gan Ning hurriedly said, "It is an honor for me to be loyal to the lord. Not to mention that the lord is unwilling to punish the last general, even if the lord really cut off the head of the lord, he can give the lord the chance to wipe out Jiangdong, and I am willing to do so."

Looking back at the surging scenery of the river, Guo Jia smiled lightly and looked at Gan Ning again. Guo Jia said in a deep voice: "After destruction of Wu, I will make the whole story of this matter public. I hope Xingba and Ziyuan can all resolve their past grudges."

When Gan Ning heard this, his face changed drastically and shook his head and said, "No, this is inappropriate for lord."

If Guo Jia secretly designed the matter between Wu Yi and Gan Ning to be made public, what would outsiders think? What would those who work hard for Guo Jia?

The outside will criticize the words, and the inside will have doubts about Guo Jia.

So Gan Ning would rather this matter be hidden in history, and no one should mention his disobedience and disrespect. Let him bear the responsibility.

But Guo Jia shook his head and chuckled, "I know the consequences, but if Xingba is allowed to bear all this, how can I bear it?"

Everyone was slightly moved when they saw this scene.

The Cao Wei in the north established the emperor, and the battle between Guo and Sun in the south may overthrow the world. The lord in front of him has already reached the top of the country, and it only takes a few steps to win the world.

Now, what Guo Jia should not be the least supposed to be able to damage his reputation, but he resolutely wants to do things that are unfavorable to him. This courage may be stupid, but perhaps it is the deepest reason for their loyalty to Guo Jia.

After his expression relaxed, Guo Jia looked at Gan Ning with a smile and asked, "Has Xingba ever blamed me? The attack on Fancheng failed?"

After all, attacking Fancheng is a cover. Guo Jia does not want Fancheng to be captured. Once captured, the Taiping Army will inevitably sweep the Central Plains. When Sun Quan takes another move, it will be a fatal blow. Therefore, attacking Fancheng without breaking is the best time, and a chance to allow Sun Quan to attack, and the Taiping Army still has a way out.

When it comes to this matter, Gan Ning, Zhou Tai, Jiang Qin and Meng Da have some regrets, but now everything is relieved.

Why should their lords be upset if they don’t take a city and a land seriously?

Gan Ning smiled casually and said, "I remembered a word my lord once said. An official is the founder of liars in the world!"

Everyone was stunned after hearing this, and then burst into laughter.

Amidst the hearty laughter, Guo Jia personally led the general of the army down the river and headed to Yidu County.

After Jiangling formulated a plan to defeat the enemy, Sun Quan took Lu Su and rushed back to Jianye. After Cao Pi proclaimed himself emperor and implemented the Nine-rank Zhongzheng system, Sun Quan must immediately stabilize the hearts of the people inside, and he was not a military general, so there was no need to stay on the front line.

After receiving information from the front line, Zhou Yu, who was commanding troops in Yiling, immediately summoned military generals to discuss matters.

In the handsome tent, the atmosphere was depressing.

Everyone was a little depressed because Jiangdong lost more than 30 consecutive battles, which must be a great blow to the army.

Lu Meng, Lu Fan, Ding Feng, Ling Tong, Huang Gai, Han Dang, Cheng Pu, and Lu Xun, who was assigned by Sun Quan as a military advisor.

Seeing this, Zhou Yu didn't say much and told everyone about the frontline situation.

After hearing this, everyone suddenly felt incredible.

The old general Huang Gai laughed and said, "Your Majesty Guo Ye, you are arrogant and arrogant and will definitely be defeated!"

Everyone nodded and agreed, deeply agreeing.

Zhou Yu smiled and said, "It's a big mistake to abandon the waterway. Now he has been camping for hundreds of miles, and he is simply ignorant of his life or death."

The Jiangdong generals took this situation for granted and used a scheming of arrogant soldiers to lure the enemy into the depths. Their defeats in a row of more than 30 formations were to breed the pride of the head coach Guo Ye, making him underestimate the enemy and make him arrogant.

Now that the goal has been achieved, the Taiping Army is all on land, and the battalion is hundreds of miles long, sandwiched between mountains and forests, it is like being in a stove.

Lu Meng, who was angry at bullfighting, immediately stepped out and clasped his fists and said to Zhou Yu: "Grandmaster, I am willing to defeat the Taiping Army for the vanguard!"

Now the Taiping Army has hundreds of miles in a row, and the advantage of the 200,000 troops is gone. It can be defeated one by one. As long as Jiangdong is in one go and swept west, he will definitely win a complete victory.

Lu Meng took the lead, and the other generals were naturally unwilling to fall behind and they all asked for battle. After this series of defeats, everyone had a sense of bad temper in their hearts and they were not happy without going out.

But Zhou Yu thought about it and did not agree. The decisive battle was decided at the pavilion, and it was not good to change the plan at the moment of the battle.

Now Jiangdong is waiting for you to get into the trap and take the initiative to attack. If the trouble is not good, it will alarm the enemy. After all, the Taiping Army is resting and must have a tight defense.

It’s better to wait for the enemy to enter the battlefield where Jiangdong most hopes for a decisive battle.

Zhou Yu suppressed the generals' enthusiasm for fighting, and just prepared his troops and waited for the Taiping Army to enter the pavilion to counterattack the entire line!

When the generals retreated, Zhou Yu saw that Lu Xun was not moving and asked, "Bo Yan, what else is there?"

Lu Xun wanted to speak but stopped, and finally sighed silently, held his fists and saluted.

When he walked out of the handsome tent, Lu Xun was upset. Somehow, he always felt that it was not good, but he couldn't tell what was going on.
