Therefore, Zhou Yu quickly issued an emergency military order, ordering Huang Gai, Jiang Qin, Chen Wu, and Cheng Pu and Han Dang who had been waiting on the shore to spread out on the shore immediately.

The enemy must be held back in the water and must not be put on the shore.

Zhou Yu had just rearranged his troops, and Ling Tong's navy finally set off.

After the boats gathered on the south bank lost control at first, they finally slowly went down the river.

At this moment, there is no obstacle in front of him.

In high spirits, Ling Tong ordered his men to march at full speed, and they arrived at the south bank in a blink of an eye.

Seeing this, the army arranged by Zhou Yu immediately fired arrows and forced the opponent back.

However, all the warships commanded by Ling Tong this time have undergone special modifications.

The prow of the ship stood up high, and there was a layer of iron covering it, so it was impossible for ordinary arrows to shoot through it.

The sailors on the ship can shoot at the shore at will through the crenel.

Therefore, although the guards on the shore are heavily guarded, the loss is much greater than that of the other party.

Moreover, as the attacking party, Ling Tong's navy took the absolute initiative.

Seeing that the defense here was relatively tight, he immediately followed the water to break through in other directions.

However, although Sun Quan has a large number of troops, he can only take into account the defense lines around Xiangyang.

However, it is impossible to arrange defenses for more than ten miles along the line, so that Ling Tong can land from anywhere.

As the guarding side, they can only be exhausted, constantly moving with the opponent's attack.

But Ling Tong has a boat in his hand, but the other party can only run back and forth on two legs.

So with Ling Tong's continuous guerrilla attacks, the enemy army became more and more exhausted.

Seeing that all the defenders on the shore were mobilized, the landing army that had been waiting in the water for a long time finally moved.

Their goal was the vast plain to the west of Xiangyang.

There is no danger to defend here, and there is no need to worry about the opponent's ambush.

The first thousand and 670 chapters six landing operations

The generals in charge of guarding Xiangyang's western defense line were Cheng Pu and Chen Wu.

Their initial pressure was not too great, because Ling Tong's navy had been attacking the eastern defense line.

But seeing that the battle over there is getting more and more intense, and the defenders there are getting tired of defending because of running back and forth, so the situation is getting more and more critical.

Therefore, after discussing with Chen Wu for a while, Cheng Pu and Chen Wu decided that Chen Wu would lead his troops to the east for support, and leave Cheng Pu here to guard.

Unexpectedly, just after Chen Wu's army arrived, Ling Tong actually sailed upstream and started attacking the western defense line instead.

Seeing this scene, the soldiers had no choice but to return again.

After spending a lot of effort to defend Ling Tong, the opponent went downstream again.

After Ling Tong went back and forth several times like this, Zhou Yu's original line of defense on the south bank was completely disrupted.

It was at this moment that Liu Ke's army finally arrived.

The ship docked quickly, and the infantry, who had been impatient for a long time, rushed ashore.

When Cheng Pu heard the movement here, he hurriedly checked, and was instantly shocked.

Only then did he know that Ling Tong's army on the water was just a trick of the other side, and the real killer was here.

Cheng Pu rushed forward to stop him desperately.

However, the opponent's speed was extremely fast, and thousands of soldiers had already gathered on the shore at this moment.

When the leading general Dian Wei saw the enemy approaching to block him, he immediately shouted: "Brothers, the battle ahead will be on water.

All the credit goes to their sailors, and now that they're ashore, it's our turn to make meritorious deeds!

Those who are not afraid of death, rush forward with this general! "

Dian Wei's words instantly ignited the passion of his soldiers.

Therefore, as soon as Dian Wei waved his hand, he immediately rushed over with a group of soldiers and horses screaming.

In an instant, they fought against Cheng Pu's defenders.

Cheng Pu had [-] troops in his hands, and they all threw them into the battlefield without leaving any behind.

The reason why he was so desperate was because he saw that the number of enemy troops landing so far was not too many.

If you can't take advantage of this opportunity to completely drive the opponent into the water, it will be too late when the enemy army has gained a firm foothold on the south bank and all the troops have landed.

However, Cheng Pu had no problem thinking, but he still underestimated the opponent's combat power.

Therefore, with the appearance of this strong wind, all the soldiers under Liu Ke believed that His Majesty had the help of heaven, and they fought extremely fiercely.

Especially under the leadership of a fierce general like Dai Dianwei, he is like a tiger descending the mountain, unstoppable.

Cheng Pu saw Dian Wei wielding his halberds, killing his own soldiers howling like ghosts and foxes.

So, Cheng Pu raised his spear and charged directly at Dianwei.
