Chapter 3536 Good plan(2/2)
The sound of shattered armor came, and Cai He stepped forward to pay homage to Cao Ren.
Cao Ren did not speak immediately, but raised his head and looked at the mountains and rivers. After a while, he slowly said: "Zhongli..."
Cai He quickly answered, "I am here."
Cao Ren suddenly turned around and stared at Cai He with bright eyes. The sword in his hand also turned around with Cao Ren. The tail of the scabbard was placed on the bluestone and several sparks were drawn, and it was lost in a blink of an eye.
"When my brother was in charge of the Jingzhou Navy, and he was chained to the river in a row. How powerful is it!" Cao Ren suddenly sighed inexplicably.
Cai He's heart was thunderous and said quickly: "General, my brother is just the light of a worm. How can he be comparable to the general? I have a strong relationship with Prime Minister Meng and the general is worthy of him. How dare I do my best?"
Cao Ren walked two steps forward, and his boots ran over a grass seedling that had finally grown in the crack of the rock. He raised his hand and landed heavily on Cai He's shoulder, patting Cai He's body trembled.
Cao Ren's voice was low, "Today, I will entrust this naval fleet to you... Could you guard this place?"
Cai He was about to hold his fists, but Cao Ren held the armor on his shoulder tightly, and it seemed to make a creaking sound. "You should know... This battle is not a small matter. If there is a mistake in Jingzhou, you and I will both bear the prime minister's high hopes, and even if you die a hundred times, you will not escape the blame!"
Cai He had a little sweat on his head, "Yes, yes... the subordinates understand, understand..."
Cao Ren stared at Cai He, and then suddenly smiled softly after a moment, slapped the sword in his hand and the scabbard into Cai He's arms.
"This knife... was given to me by the Prime Minister, and today I will give it to you... This knife is fierce and stubborn, very sharp. It is said that blood will be seen when it comes out of the sheath... It is either the blood of others, or the blood of oneself..."
Cai He looked down at the sword in his arms, as if he smelled the bloody smell of the sword through the scabbard, and couldn't help swallowing.
Cao Ren glanced at Cai He for the last time and said loudly, "Stop fighting!"
Cai He took a breath, bowed to take the order, took his men to the warship, and raised an anchor under the order, headed towards the Pass.
Cao Ren looked at Cai He and his fleet heading towards the Pass, silently silent.
After a while, Cao Ren turned and went down the stone slope, "Everyone is there, head to Danjiangkou!"
...
...
The tactics adopted by Cai He are a very traditional naval combat method. Small and medium-sized warships guard the tower ship, help the tower ship clear the dangers in front, eliminate small groups of enemies, and then use the height and manpower of the tower ship to suppress the enemy, attack and eliminate the enemy's living forces, and finally win.
This kind of combat method is stable.
After all, the tower ship is not fast, and it is large in size, so it is not very flexible in operation. Therefore, the tower ship generally does not actively collide with opponents of the same size. In most cases, it is used as a combat platform.
But Cai He didn't expect that the tactics he was used to encountered new problems with Li Dian.
Cao's army's tactics were not wrong, but Cai and he met Li Dian, who did not follow the common sense...
Normally, the battle between soldiers on land and the competition between the water and the water.
Although Cai He understood that his personal bravery was average, he still had some confidence in his combat on the water, at least he would have greater confidence than on land. As a result, Li Dian's ship on the water surface saw Cao He's fleet appear, and immediately shrank back and did not come to fight at all!
This made Cai He a little embarrassed.
Because Li Dian's land troops happened to be at the corner of a river channel, the terrain was relatively high.
If we want to pursue Li Dian's fleet, not only will our own fleet be exposed to the shooting range of Li Dian's land troops, but the advantage of the height of the tower ship is also gone.
But if you don’t bypass Li Dian at the corner of the river, you will definitely not be able to cause harm to Li Dian’s surface ships. You cannot attack Li Dian’s troops, then wouldn’t Cai He have a waste of time?
Cai He looked down at the sword that had been hung around his waist.
The sword swallowing is the model of Yazi and the eight swords of Han, which is simple and powerful.
Cai He held the hilt of the sword tightly, as if he wanted to control the cruel Yazi under the hilt.
Cai He looked up at Li Dian's troops on the Hewan Highlands, frowned and thought for a moment, and then ordered: "Send a message to the meteorological gate! We are going to attack the flanks of the bandits' army on the dock and let them cooperate with the crossing attack!"
"Ah?" The military academy was stunned for a moment, "Captain, we... don't we want to attack the other's navy?"
Cai He pointed to the high ground at the bend of the river, "You said, how to fight a navy army? Even if there are only crossbows on the high ground, it is enough for us to suffer! If there are more crossbows and catapults,... General Cao wants us to guard this pass, not to ask us to catch up and die!"
Cao Jun Military Academy turned to look at the high ground where Li Dian was, and hesitated for a moment, "But... we are navy soldiers, we got on the shore..."
Cai He's hand holding the hilt was getting more and more forceful, and the blue veins burst out, "So we have to let the defenders of the Moon Pass attack together... As long as they defeat this wave of attacks of the thieves and burn their siege equipment, they will be at least three or four days later, whether they retreat or build them again... Didn't General Cao say that we just need to defend! Keep this place!"
...
...
"What?!"
At the Passage, the guard general received the news from Cai He who sent someone back, and the muscles on his face couldn't help but wrinkle together!
Also attack, you grandma!
The defender quickly stretched out his head and took a look during the break of Li Dianjun's attack, and quickly shrank back.
As the guard's head retracted, a crossbow arrow flew over the battlement with an unwilling whistle.
"Look! Look!" The guard leaned against the brick wall of the battlements and scolded angrily, "I can't even show my head, but I can't even hit you?"
What's more, under the gate, not only are there crossbowmen who have set up crossbows and ready to snipe at any time, but also those heavy armored soldiers standing on both sides of the position wearing heavy armor, all of them look like an iron tower!
What is the difference between attacking in such a situation and dying?
"But... it's not good to leave them like this..."
The guard next to the guard said.
"You know what the hell!" The guard bent over and quickly passed the battlement gap, then changed the angle to peek out, "I didn't know how to say it... See if they fight, we'll go out if they win... If they can't win, what's the use of us when we go out?"
"Ah...the Lord is wise..."
...
...
『Prepare to dock!』
『Cross! Cross!』
『Archer! Get on the side of the ship!』
『Blade and shield hands come forward!』
In the war drum, Cai He ordered the three hundred Cao troops to get off the warships and set up a formation on the shore.
Cai He was not capable of helping him, and his combat effectiveness was very average, so he knew very well that he did not get off the boat, but just leaned the warship on the shore.
Moreover, Cai He was a little cautious. He did not send all the soldiers on the warships off the ship to land on the battle, but sent only one-third more than one-third, leaving most of them on the ships. In this way, even if Li Dian's navy turned around and wanted to attack Cai He, it would be exactly what Cai He wanted.
After all, as long as it is on the water surface and there is no cover from the protruding highlands on the shore, Cai He is still confident to fight Li Dian's ships and warships...
Therefore, for Cai He, it is naturally the best to win the battle on land. If he cannot win, he will hold it back or harass Li Dian's attack on the Yunguan Pass, it is also good. Secondly, even if he cannot achieve the results on land, being able to give Li Dian a certain blow to the water surface can be considered as fulfilling Cao Ren's request.
Anyway, Cai He felt that doing this was a trick of winning multiple goals. No matter which aspect of his gain, he won today.
It's just about winning more than winning less.
But Cai He forgot a little bit, his soldiers were also ordinary Cao's soldiers.
Things that both need and need are not beautiful at all, and are basically impossible to achieve.
Amid the sound of war drums, three hundred Cao's soldiers stepped onto the shore and rushed towards Li Dianjun's position step by step.
As the two sides got closer, the low sound of war drums became tighter and tighter.
Li Dian's array does not seem to have changed much.
Cai He vaguely felt something was wrong, but when he reached this point, he could only bite the bullet and continue...
Chapter completed!
