Chapter 188

,,,,,,,,,,,,

Pengze is the name of a county and a lake. It is located about fifty miles west of Chaisang. The lake is vast and has a vast blue wave, and it is connected to the Yangtze River.

Pengze Lake is also the dividing line between Jingzhou and Jiangdong, but Jiangdong is powerful, Pengze Lake is actually controlled by Jiangdong and becomes a naval base for Jiangdong to attack Jingzhou.

Jiangdong Junshui Village is located east of the Great Lakes. There are as many as thousands of warships on the water surface, and a large number of military camps and warehouses are built on the shore.

At this time, more than 2,000 warships from the Jiangdong Army went west to attack Jiangxia. Only remaining warships were left in Pengze's naval base, with more than 1,500 troops, which was the most empty moment.

At night, a fleet of ships composed of other small boats gradually approached the Pengze Water Army Dazhai. The Water Army Dazhai covers an area of ​​about two hectares, and the water village is full of ships. Every ten steps outside the water village, there is a wooden stake in the water. The wooden stakes are connected by ropes, which is quite simple.

The gate of the Water Village is located in the middle, marked by two water post towers about meter high. Soldiers patrol day and night.

Although the water village fence is simple, patrol boats are passing by from time to time, and the defense is very tight.

On the boat, Gan Ning stared at the water village for a moment. At this time, a black shadow swam in the water and shouted in the darkness: "Brother, I am Lou Si."

This is Lou Fa, the confidant general of Gan Ning who was sent to investigate the enemy situation. Everyone called him Lou Si. Shui Xing was the first in Gan Ning's hands and served as the military marquis.

Gan Ning immediately ordered the ship to meet him. Lou Si rolled over and came to Gan Ning for a while.

"How is the situation?" Gan Ning asked in a low voice.

Lou Si gasped and said, "There are probably warships in the water camp. There are no soldiers on the ship. The soldiers are all in the military camp on the shore. However, the patrols are very tight, and it is no problem for one or two ships to enter, but if we have so many ships in, we will definitely be discovered."

"There are usually several ships on the patrol," Gan Ning asked again after pondering.

"This is not necessarily the case, at least two ships, at most five or six ships, but each ship has an alarm bell that can be ringed at any time."

Speaking of this, Lou Si suddenly remembered something and hurriedly said, "But the northwest corner is a place where dilapidated ships are piled up, and there are almost no patrols there, so you can enter from there."

Gan Ning shook his head, patted his shoulder and smiled, "Thank you for your hard work, go and have a drink to warm up your body first, and I'll let you take it later."

The soldier took Lou Si down, and Gan Ning pondered for a moment and said to his general Shen Mi: "It's better to act according to the original plan, and I'll leave it to you."

In the night, Gan Ning soldiers were divided into two, and he led a team of ships toward the northwest corner.

...........

Shen Mianen was about 20 years old, with a medium figure, smart and capable, and a particularly skilled person. She has followed Gan Ning since she was a teenager and is currently a military marquis. Together with Lou Fa, he became Gan Ning's most capable right-hand man.

Shen Mi led more than 80 small boats to wait quietly on the lake. After about an hour, Shen Mi waved her hand and drove to the water camp in the distance. Each ship was covered with straw men, making the army densely packed. There was a soldier holding a torch on each ship's bow, making the fleet visible from afar.

Two miles away from the gate of the Shuizhai, he was discovered by the Jiangdong sentry. The alarm bell suddenly sounded loudly.

The alarm bell rang through the water camp, and seven or eight sentry boats rushed out of the water camp. Just as they approached the opponent's fleet, the other party fired arrows at once. The sentry boats were caught off guard, and several sentrymen screamed and were shot in the arrow.

The remaining several whistleboats turned around and fled back to the water camp, shouting: "Report to General Lu quickly, Jingzhou naval forces are coming in a large-scale attack."

The alarm bell rang again, resounding throughout the water village...

The chief general who is currently guarding the water camp is Lu Fan, the general of the Central Army, and Lu Fanwu is a sacred official in Jiangdong. He made many outstanding achievements with Sun Ce and was regarded as his confidant by Sun Ce. He was therefore named General of the Central Army by Sun Ce and became a senior official in the Jiangdong military.

After Sun Quan ascended the throne, he also valued Lu Fan. Last year, Lu Su defeated Chaisang, so Sun Quan appointed Lu Fan as the governor of the Pengze Naval Army and took charge of the Pengze Naval Army camp.

This time, Sun Quan launched a large-scale attack on Jiangxia, taking away most of the troops and warships of Pengze Dazhai, lowering the military ships and soldiers of Pengze Water Village to the lowest level in history.

Lu Fan was reading a book in the military camp when he suddenly heard a warning bell from the water camp. He was shocked and walked out of the big tent quickly and looked into the water camp. However, he unexpectedly found that there was a fire in the place where the abandoned ship was placed in the northwest corner.

Lu Fan was shocked and sweated coldly. He suddenly realized that the defense loophole in the northwest corner had been discovered by the enemy. At noon today, he also found that there were no patrols in the abandoned ships in the northwest corner, which was a defense loophole. He was preparing to adjust the patrol line tomorrow, but something happened tonight.

At this time, a soldier rushed over and knelt down on one knee to report: "Report to the Governor, there are Jingzhou troops coming outside the Water Village. There are close warships, and the ship is densely packed with soldiers, heading towards the Water Village."

Lu Fan knew in his heart that this must be the Jingzhou army taking advantage of Pengze's emptiness and attacking the water camp at night, setting fires while blocking the warships in the water camp at the same time. However, many warships were anchored in the water camp. If they did not break out, they would inevitably be burned.

In particular, dozens of large ships were loaded with tens of thousands of soldiers who were preparing to aid Jiangxia, which were supplies urging by the Marquis of Wu. They were preparing to set off tomorrow morning. If they were burned, the consequences would be serious.

But Lu Fan was also worried about the safety of the warehouse on the shore, which contained a large amount of food and supplies. If he went to rescue the ship, the troops guarding the warehouse would inevitably be insufficient.

He didn't know what the enemy was really trying to do. Whether they were for the ship or for the warehouse Lu Fan was hesitant for a moment.

At this time, fires in the water village were lit up, and fire rose on the water surface, burning into a piece of smoke, and more than 80 abandoned ships were all burning, and the fire quickly spread southward.

The soldiers under his command shouted anxiously, "Governor, if you don't save the ship, all the ships and soldiers will be burned. How can we explain to the Marquis of Wu?"

Sweat beads rolled down Lu Fan's forehead. He had to make a decision now. It was possible to destroy the ship and burn the warehouse, but judging from the current situation, destroying the ship is right in front of him.

Lu Fan gritted his teeth and turned to the deputy general Cheng Ning and said, "General Cheng, we have two troops. You can lead two thousand soldiers to evacuate the ships, but I will lead one thousand soldiers to strictly guard the warehouse."

"The last one will follow the order"

Lu Fan immediately ordered, "Except for the soldiers of Zuoying, all the remaining troops boarded the ships, and the ships in the water camp were evacuated immediately."

Cheng Ning led two thousand soldiers to quickly rush onto the warship and evacuated all the remaining warships, while Lu Fan did not care about the barracks and ships, and led a thousand soldiers to the warehouse.

The warehouse of the Pengze Shuijun Dazhai is located behind the military camp, surrounded by camps and covers an area of ​​nearly acres. It consists of more than 80 huge warehouses. Although Sun Quan attacked Jiangxia this time and emptyed half of the warehouses, there were still forty warehouses with a large amount of food and food in it.

The warehouse is full of famous soldiers patrol. If one more thousand soldiers are added to the defense, then as long as there are not many sneak attacks on the enemy, the warehouse will still be safe and sound.

Lu Fan had not many troops in his hands, so he had thought it carefully and tried his best to make both troops, but the reality was different from what he imagined.

In the night, Gan Ning led four elite subordinates to ambush between the military camp and the warehouse. There was only a step apart between the military camp and the warehouse. Gan Ning led his subordinates to climb over the military camp wall and ambush in the grass.

Gan Ning was not in a hurry to deal with the warehouse. He knew that there would inevitably be some army to support the warehouse.

"Shush, silent," Gan Ning shouted in a low voice, and there was already movement in the military camp.

Lu Fan led a thousand soldiers to rush towards the warehouse. At this time, the warehouse was very quiet and there was no sign of being attacked, which made Lu Fan feel a little relieved.

"Open the door quickly," Lu Fan rushed to the warehouse gate and shouted loudly.

As soon as Lu Fan finished speaking, a scream suddenly came from behind him. Lu Fan suddenly turned around and saw an army of about four or five people breaking into his team in the darkness. They were all extremely brave and instantly split his subordinates into two.

"Open the door quickly" Lu Fan yelled in a hurry.

But the warehouse defenders found an army attack, but they were reluctant to open the door. They rang the alarm bell, and the alarm sounded throughout the warehouse, and Yu guards rushed towards the back door.

Lu Fan had no time to wait for the door to open. He turned around and shouted, "Don't panic, line up to fight."

A thousand soldiers were split into two and were in a mess. Although the four people close to Lu Fan began to line up to fight, they were far from being opponents of Gan Ning and his men, and were killed and retreated step by step.

Gan Ning and his men were both in battle and had strong combat power. In particular, Gan Ning was even more skilled in martial arts. With one kill, the Jiangdong Army was killed and fled in scattered, with heavy casualties.

"Governor, go quickly"

A tooth general shouted in a hurry: "Brothers can no longer hold it, General, go quickly."

Seeing that the warehouse was reluctant to open the door, Lu Fan had already begun to collapse. If he didn't leave, his life would be lost here.

Lu Fan stomped his feet in hatred, turned around and fled. Dozens of soldiers surrounded him and fled to the north of the military camp.

A thousand soldiers could not stop the killing of Gan Ning's army. They cried and shouted, and fled in all directions. However, Gan Ning stopped his subordinates and said, "Don't chase them, go into the warehouse."

More than four subordinates threw out the rope and put the fence on it. Everyone tried hard. The fence of the warehouse fell down with a loud bang. Gan Ning shouted loudly and took the lead in the warehouse.

...........

Lu Fan rushed to the dock in one breath and boarded a warship. He was shocked. At this time, the fire in the water village turned red. Not only did dozens of abandoned ships burn, but more than a dozen large ships were not too late to evacuate, but they were also engulfed by the fire. The entire water village almost became a sea of ​​fire.

However, most of the warships had been evacuated and were parked in various places in the water camp, without being affected by the fire, which made Lu Fan feel a little relieved.

"Governor, look!"

A soldier pointed to the warehouse on the shore and shouted that Lu Fan had seen it, but he saw that the fire was soaring into the sky above the warehouse, and the smoke was rolling. The entire warehouse area had been completely engulfed by the fire.
