Chapter 544 Jiangxia Water Battle

On the ninth day of May, Jiangdong's army mobilized frequently and gathered in Lujiang County. It seemed that they were going to launch a northward attack on Huainan County. However, in fact, Zhou Yu secretly mobilized most of the navy to gather in Chaisang.

On May 15th, 12,000 Jiangdong naval forces officially set out to attack Jiangxia.

Under the personal leadership of Sun Ce, the morale of the 12,000 Jiangdong naval forces was high. The huge naval fleet moved northward along the way and arrived at Xiakou easily.

"snort!"

Huang Zuzheng, who was guarding Jiangxia, led the main force to sit in Xiakou. The Jingzhou infantry were mostly led by Cai Mao and Kuai Liang, and the general of the navy was Huang Zu. Not only did Huang Zu have a close personal relationship with Liu Biao, but the Huang family was also one of the local aristocratic families in Jingzhou, so Huang Zu had guarded Jiangxia for many years.

Calling the generals for a meeting, Huang Zu, a tall man, looked around at the generals on the left and right and said dissatisfiedly: "Everyone, this kid Sun Ce doesn't know whether to live or die. He is attacking our Jiangxia. I am determined to go to war and severely weaken his spirit!"

Su Fei, who was sitting on the right side of Huang Zu, had a worried look on his face: "But Governor Huang, the enemy is under the banner of Sun, and the leading general is Sun Ce. Now Sun Ce is so powerful in Jiangdong, do our troops really want to fight with him?" "

As soon as these words came out, many Jiangxia navy generals nodded and talked about it. After all, Sun Ce has become famous in recent years. He crossed the river to attack Liu Yao and went north to attack Yuan Shu. He became famous at a young age and has sharp soldiers. He really wants to fight Sun Ce. What?

Huang Zu glared at Su Fei fiercely and said dissatisfiedly: "Su Lieutenant, what do you mean by this? Is it possible that if you want me to huddle in Xiakou, don't you tell the whole world that I am afraid of Sun Ce's son?"

Su Fei waved his hand hurriedly: "Director Huang, that's not what I meant."

"That's good!" Huang Zu said decisively: "Pass this order to the general, and the army will leave Xiakou for a decisive battle with the little thief Sun Ce!"

The left and right generals responded in unison, Huang Zu walked out with a proud expression, while Su Fei sighed.

"Brother Su, why are you sighing?" A man with a resolute face came forward and comforted: "Our army far exceeds the Jiangdong Army, and we are waiting to fight on the mainland. The time and place are favorable to me, so why worry about a battle?"

"Xingba, you don't know something." Su Fei smiled bitterly: "Although our army has a large number of people, we don't know when the last battle was, but Jiangdong Army has been in battle for a long time. And Jiangxia is me If anything happens to the gateway to the east of Jingzhou, the state pastor will be blamed."

Gan Ning said with confidence: "Brother Su, don't worry, the Jinfan soldiers under a certain command will fight hard."

Seeing Gan Ning's determination to win, Su Fei sighed again and didn't know why.

The second day.

Boom, boom, boom!

At the Xiakou division camp, the gate to the water village was opened, and a naval fleet consisting of hundreds of boats, ships, and seven or eight fighting ships rushed out of the water village in a mighty manner. The drummers in the village were fighting for their lives. beat the war drums to build momentum for the naval colleagues who went on the expedition.

Huang Zu's ship was the largest battleship in the naval fleet, with a unicorn battle flag hanging on it, with teeth and claws hanging. Huang Zu was wearing black armor and standing on the bow of the ship with a sword in his hand, looking majestic. .

Huang Zu looked at the huge Jiangxia Navy in front of him and said with confidence: "Our Jiangxia Navy is so powerful that Sun Ce will be scared to death."

The 20,000 Jiangxia Navy almost came out in full force, and then they headed in the direction of Jiangdong Army. However, what was unexpected was that when Jiangxia Navy was about to emerge from the Xia River, it stabbed one of the Jiangxia Navy's troops. The partial division suddenly shot out, right in the middle of Jiangxia Navy, and immediately cut Jiangxia Navy in half.

This Jiangdong branch carried two banners: Huang and Ling.

On the Jiangdong Army's ship is an old and strong general with a white beard, a nine-section iron whip in his hand, and his body is still strong. He is Huang Gai, a veteran of the Jiangdong Army.

"Where is Huang Zu? Jiangdong Army officers and men, kill them!"

Huang Zu was getting stronger, and he directly controlled his ship to kill Huang Zu's ship. The huge fighting ship crashed into the Jiangxia Navy, directly knocking a boat into pieces, and Huang Zu was shocked. Jump, but Huang Zu reacted quickly.

"Hmph." Huang Zu pulled out his sword and shouted: "Where is Wang Wei? Immediately lead the navy to meet the enemy and stop the water thieves from the east of the Yangtze River."

When Wang Wei saw the general's flag waving on Huang Zu's ship, he immediately led a fleet towards Huang Gai and Ling Cao's troops. The two armies began to fight. Although the Jiangdong Army was smaller in number, everyone The bravery and bravery suddenly overwhelmed Jiangxia Navy.

Huang Zu snorted disdainfully: "Just Jiangdong water thieves, with such a small number of people, what can they do?"

"Huang Du, it's not good! Sun Zi Zhanqi, the little overlord is here!"

"What? The little bully is here?"

Not far away from the front army, a large number of Jiangdong naval forces suddenly rushed up. On a fighting ship surrounded by many boats and ships, a battle flag with the word "Sun" was hung. The lost general sitting on the bow of the ship was Sun Ce himself.

"Brothers!" Sun Ce said proudly: "General Huang and Lieutenant Ling have held back Jiangxia Navy. This battle is the time to make great achievements. Follow me and kill!"

"Follow the general and make meritorious deeds against thieves!"

The Jiangdong Army pressed forward fiercely towards the Jiangxia Navy. The leading generals were Jiang Qin and Chen Wu. Jiang Qin was a famous water thief who roamed the Jianghuai area, and Chen Wu was also a strong general in the Jiangdong Army.

"Jiang Qin is here, who dares to fight with me?"

Seeing the majestic Jiang Qin, the Jiangxia Navy forwards were immediately frightened.

"Water Treader?"

"No, Jiang Qin used to have less than a thousand men and marched across the Yangtze River and Huaihe River. Let's leave quickly."

Seeing that Jiang Qin was so well-known among the Jiangxia Navy, Chen Wu was not willing to be outdone and shouted loudly: "Chen Zilie is here, let the Jiangxia water pirates suffer death!"

After Jiang Qin and Chen Wu entered the Jiangxia Navy with overwhelming force, the forwards of the two armies immediately began to fight. The air was filled with arrows flying for a while. The battle was very fierce. However, although the two armies fought vigorously, the Jiangxia Navy After all, there was strength in numbers, and Huang Zu personally supervised the army, so Jiangdong's army only had a slight advantage.

Sun Ce frowned when he saw this scene, turned around and told Zhou Yu who was beside him: "Gong Jin, our army has been unable to open up the situation. It seems that someone must step forward to supervise the battle in person. I will leave the command to you on the spot."

Zhou Yu looked solemn: "Don't worry, Bo Fu, I understand."

Sun Ce nodded slightly and ordered the officers and men on board to maneuver the boat forward.

"Where is the old thief Huang Zu? Sun Bofu is here! Give my father his life back!"

As the saying goes, those who mourn will win. When Huang Zu shot Sun Jian to death in the suburbs of Xiangyang, Sun Ce hated him so much that his momentum rose to a high level in an instant.
