Chapter 2254 The fuse of the Yuyang War(2/2)
A small county town that is not very wealthy, and can even be said to have no reputation.
Chen Ying belongs to the Chen family in Xiapi. He should be Chen Deng's younger brother. Normally, his official position should not be so low. But the problem is that the Chen family in Xiapi is no longer what it used to be. The reason is very simple. Chen Deng is dead.
, died in Xuzhou, quietly, but in extremely painful death.
Chen Deng died of illness and died of schistosomiasis. Later generations also speculated about this, but the problem is that in the Han Dynasty, no one understood this thing, so that some idle people would say that Chen Deng died of schistosomiasis.
The demons and ghosts are the evil ghosts seeking the soul. They are the retribution Chen received now for the bad things he did in the past...
Chen Gui, the white-haired man, sent the black-haired man away. He was so sad that he couldn't help himself. For a moment, Chen Gui felt as if he had been struck head-on by fate, and was knocked dizzy.
Is Chen Deng considered a good person? Of course not entirely, but at that time, the only purpose of the Chen family was to protect themselves in the war. As for whether it was Tao Qian or Liu Bei, Lu Bu or Cao Cao, they all
It doesn't matter. Their loyalty is only to their own family and their own industry.
So what the Xiapi Chen family did was really wrong?
Obviously it doesn't count either.
But after Chen Deng died and Chen Gui fell ill, everyone in Xuzhou saw that the Chen family was showing signs of decline. They immediately made various excuses, swallowed saliva, grinned their teeth, and even dug in directly.
They grabbed the fields adjacent to the Chen family and took away the land forcefully...
Chen Ying was a member of the Chen family, and Chen Deng was a younger brother. He wanted to help, but was unable to do so. After all, his name was not justified, so after meeting Chen Gui, he followed Chong'er's example and stayed out of the matter, which actually gave him more room to move.
It's just that because the Chen family's power has weakened, they can only plan a position as county magistrate for Chen Ying. As for the rest, it depends on Chen Ying himself...
Therefore, Chen Ying discovered anomalies in the county. When he learned that people with Liaodong accents were coming and going, he almost smelled some scents keenly. Then he further followed these Liaodong soldiers, and accidentally touched the Gongsun Army.
Parked nearby.
The seawater in the distance reflected some fragments of light, and some huge black shadows appeared faintly.
"So many..." someone in the queue whispered, obviously hesitant.
"Don't be afraid!" Chen Ying turned around and said, "We won't get on the boat to fight with them!"
"We are caught by surprise and will definitely win!" Chen Ying encouraged morale, "The main thing is to burn the boat! Remember, burn the boat! Sneak over first, burn the boat! Let's go!"
Amidst the soundless roar of the sea waves, some dark shadows secretly approached these Gongsun ships under the starry sky...
The torch was lit, the oil tank was smashed on the ship, and then as the torch fell, a raging fire broke out!
"Enemy attack... enemy attack..."
General Gongsun Jun on the ship then reacted and started shouting, but many people were still confused and bumping into each other in the dark cabin, but could not find the exit.
This is a disaster!
The Gongsun Army of Liaodong, who basically had no experience in surface warfare, could not become a qualified naval force after getting on a ship and not getting seasick. Just like being able to ride a horse, it does not mean that it is a cavalry. These half-empty Gongsun Army
There is no problem in normal times, but in the current emergency situation, the disadvantages are immediately exposed.
"Shoot! Shoot!"
Cao Jun, who was standing on the land, unceremoniously threw arrows at the Gongsun soldiers who were trying to rush out of the cabin without even wearing their armor, shooting these Gongsun soldiers until they were crying and rolling around.
There were not many people in Cao's army. They were just defenders in a county. However, Cao's army had a very clear goal, which was to burn the ships. They did not bother with Gongsun's army, and did not even make any move to harvest the heads of Gongsun's soldiers. They just took advantage of the situation.
Before Gongsun's army could react, they rushed to the side of the ship, then threw oil cans and burned the ship.
At this time, the shortcomings of the informal navy have emerged again. If it is the Jiangdong navy, fire protection of ships has become a habit. Daily maintenance and habitual defense will improve the fire resistance of ships. But now
The ship is in the hands of Gongsun Bing, and these soldiers in Liaodong land are used to being carefree. In addition, they have never experienced a battle formation on the water with rockets flying randomly, so they have no idea what is fire-proof or not.
, the fire prevention work that was supposed to be done was not done at all. Even the water in the fire prevention water tank was used up by them as ordinary water...
Especially when the army commander subconsciously issued a retreat order, originally thinking of retreating into the sea to avoid the attack, but unexpectedly getting stuck on the tidal flat, the overall defeat of Gongsun's army was inevitable.
A big victory.
With less than 800 troops, Chen Ying destroyed eighteen warships of Gongsun's army, burned twelve of them, and captured six. At the same time, Chen Ying killed and wounded Gongsun's soldiers without any calculation, and captured nearly a thousand people...
Three days later, when Kuai Ma delivered the news to Yecheng that the Jiaodong Peninsula had encountered Cao's army and had won a victory, Cao Cao didn't know whether to be happy or to scold his mother.
Chen Ying was not wrong and should be rewarded. After all, the opportunity was not to be missed. But the problem was that Cao Cao had been eager to put Zhao Yun in his pocket, but he never received the news. Now Zhao Yun has not appeared in Yuyang, and the other side has already
It was a move.
Although Gongsun Du may not notice the bleeding wound right away, under such circumstances, Cao Cao had to order to start tightening Yuyang's pockets, otherwise all the fish in the net he had finally laid would jump.
If you close the net only after you leave, wouldn't you be making a big loss?
