Chapter 151: Battle of Crossing the River (11)

When Zhang Ying hurriedly organized the soldiers who retreated from the water camp and the soldiers in the Lu camp to defend, he sadly discovered that the five thousand soldiers had already gone four out, with less than three thousand left. His morale was low, and all were dejected, and many soldiers were still wounded with arrows.

There was no time to boost morale, so Zhang Ying had to mobilize several of the lieutenants under Mi to organize their soldiers and must hold on to Luzhai.

It was completely dark, but it was bright in the Likou Fortress.

Under the bright flame reflection, the Jinfan Army's boats were the first to kill in. Relying on the small and flexible advantages of the boat, they shuttled around the water camp. The soldiers stood on the boat, either posing bows and arrows, or holding spears to eliminate the scattered guards of Zhang Ying's troops who were still fighting stubbornly.

The Jinfan Army's ships and tower ships slowly rushed towards the Likou Fortress. The fire attack was not over yet, and the fire would continue to spread. They were not in a hurry to join the war at this moment.

Zhang Ying looked anxiously at the flags on the side defensive positions, and was secretly annoyed: "Why didn't you expect the enemy to attack with fire? Alas... I blame myself for being neglected... However, it's really strange that the northwest wind will blow this season..."

Looking at the warships that he didn't have many in the water village, Zhang Ying felt very sad. This was something he had finally collected and spent a lot of money to build dozens of new ships, and it was burned to death.

Zhang Ying suddenly thought of Fan Neng and Yu Mi stationed in Hengjiangjin. They blamed them for not obeying themselves and hiding in the fortress. Otherwise, they would be able to attack Zhou Yu's troops from the back and give a fatal blow to Zhou Yu's troops, which would definitely defeat the enemy.

Zhang Ying was so angry that she cursed: "Damn, after this battle, I will never spare you two men!" A cold light flashed, and Zhang Ying cut off the flagpole beside her with a sword.

The northwest wind was still blowing, and there was no need to rest at all. The water village had basically burned almost all, and the fire dragon followed the wind and began to burn towards the direction of the land village.

Hengjiangjin.

Fan Nengzheng and Yu Mi were drinking in the house. A small iron pot was stewed with veal, and a strong aroma of meat filled the entire house. The two personal soldiers guarding the door couldn't help but take a deep breath, envious of them. It would be better to be a general. Good wine and good meat are not short of every meal. Today's beef tastes so fragrant.

"Report~~" A scout hurried into the house, passing by the two personal soldiers like a gust of wind, and by the way, the fragrance of veal dissipated, which made the two personal soldiers very upset. He muttered in secret: "It's not okay for us to eat well, even smell it. We are really unlucky..."

Fan Neng drank the wine in the cup and then asked, "Why are you panic?"

The scout knelt on one knee and reported: "The young man was just now on the Wangstower and found that when the light lit up in the direction of the likou, I don't know why."

"Oh~~" Yu Miteng stood up and asked sternly: "You're not reading the wrong place? Are you sure you're a likable one?"

The scout hurriedly replied: "General, the villain has grown up in this area since he was a child, so he will never misread it."

Yu Mi turned his head suddenly, his eyes met with Fan Neng's eyes, and both sides read a hint of panic from each other's eyes. Today they received a secret letter from Prefect Wu Jing, asking them to cooperate with Zhang Ying, and to protect the Yangtze River defense line with all their strength, so as not to let others take advantage of loopholes, or let the governor Liu Yao seize the handle. After discussing with Yu Mi, Fan Neng wanted to take the initiative to go to Zhang Ying's place tomorrow to indicate that he was willing to implement the defense plan according to his idea. Unexpectedly, such a thing happened tonight. When the fire of Likou should not be caused by negligence. The tenth ** was that Zhou Yu's troops were attacking Likou.

Fan Neng felt like he had fifteen buckets in his heart, and if he lost his mouth, he would never have any relationship with Yu Mi.

Thinking of this, Fan Neng said to Mi urgently: "No need to delay, we will send troops immediately and attack Zhou Yu's troops!"

Danglikou, Luzhai.

The fire had spread from the water camp to the Luzhai. The towers, houses and supplies warehouses above the Luzhai were made of wooden items, and they began to burn one after another. In addition, Zhou Yu's navy had completely occupied the water camp, and the soldiers of the Jinfan Army also launched rockets, which made the fire in the Luzhai even more vigorously.

When Zhang Ying found that the baggage warehouse caught fire, he was anxious. His eyes were covered with blood, as if he had not slept all night. In fact, they were anxious. Once the Lu Village caught fire, the army would be in chaos without fighting, and the enemy would not have to waste much effort to capture the Lu Village. In this way, the whole Likou Fortress would be finished. When the baggage warehouse caught fire, the food, arrows, utensils, etc. stored in it would be burned. Even if the army desperately resisted the enemy's attack, without food and the morale of the army would be destined to be a failure.

"Hurry~~ Organize people to go to the warehouse to put out the fire!!" Zhang Ying shouted loudly. Several of his personal soldiers were ordered to leave, and each led a group of troops to put out the fire.

Gan Ning saw the chaotic scene in Luzhai. According to the combat plan, the following is that he led about 3,000 Jinfan soldiers to attack Luzhai while taking advantage of the chaos. Zhou Yu led the rest of the troops to guard against Hengjiangjin Fanneng and Yu Mi's troops. Seeing that the remaining enemies in the water camp had been cleared, Gan Ning pointed forward in the Tianlong Bafeng Sword in his palm and shouted loudly: "Brothers, attack Luzhai!"

When the Likou Water Village and Lu Village were connected by three trest bridges, the soldiers of the Jinfan Army abandoned their ships and boarded the trest bridge. After a simple formation, they used long shield soldiers in front, spear soldiers in the middle, and archers at the end, and began to attack the land village.

Zhang Ying also organized the remaining strong soldiers and arranged them to defend with all their might at the end of the trestle. However, the morale of the attacking party was like a rainbow, while the morale of the defending party was scattered.

Gan Ning led the way and walked on the pier in the middle. He carried the Tianlong Bafeng Sword behind him, held an iron-ridge spear in his hand, followed the long shield soldier, and walked step by step towards the Luzhai.

Seeing that the enemy entered the attack range of the bow and arrow, Zhang Ying ordered: "Shoot the arrow!"

A dense rain of arrows flew out of the Lu Village, attacking from the air in an arc.
