These days, Yang Hu is waiting for the arrival of the naval fleet and jointly combating water and land. Therefore, the name means that the naval and land armies jointly launched an attack and launched an oppressive attack on Qian Tang's defenders.

Even without the support of the navy, it is not impossible for Yang Hu to conquer Qian Tang. With the Wei army's infantry's ability to attack Qian Tang, there will be no problem in winning Qian Tang, but it will only cost a lot of casualties.

In war, it is impossible not to die. Yang Hu thought of using the smallest casualties as much as possible to exchange for the greatest victory. Being able to defeat the enemy without fighting is the best plan, and fighting for the greatest victory at the smallest price is to get the plan, killing one thousand enemies and losing eight hundred themselves, and making the next plan. Obviously, this self-destructive victory method is not advocated by Yang Hu.

What's more, after arriving in Qiantang, Yang Hu had already learned the terrain of Qiantang. Yang Hu believed that if the Wu army's water retreat route was not cut off, the Wu army would probably retreat from the water route to Guling on the south bank without being able to defend, and rebuild the defense line.

In this way, it was equivalent to the Wei army spending a considerable price to seize an empty city. Yang Hu naturally did not do such a loss-making business. Therefore, after a tentative attack, Yang Hu ordered the suspension of the attack.

In the next time, Yang Hu was waiting for the arrival of the Wei Navy fleet, preparing to launch an attack on both sides of the water and land after the arrival of the navy, and seize Qiantang City.

As for Qian Tang's defending enemies, Yang Hu didn't have to worry about them running away at all. After all, Qian Tang was the throat of Wu County to Kuaiji. Lu Kai chose to abandon Qian Tang under the utmost circumstances, which undoubtedly gave Yang Hu the opportunity to wipe out Qian Tang's defenders.

Yang Hu had been in close contact with the Wei Navy. When Tan Kai's fleet arrived at Qiantangwan, Yang Hu originally estimated that they could arrive at Qiantang in about two days. Unexpectedly, Tan Kai actually led the fleet to take advantage of the rising tide and took only a few hours to kill the river near Qiantang City and fought fiercely with the Wu navy.

Yang Hu was actually not sure about this naval battle. After all, the Wu navy was famous for its greatness. It was very difficult for the Wei navy to defeat them. Yang Hu had decided to mobilize 10,000 crossbowmen to the riverside to cooperate with the navy.

But unexpectedly, Tan Kai's naval army fought much better than they thought. With the opportunity of rising tide, he caught Wu's army off guard and completely destroyed the Wu naval army in one fell swoop.

Yang Hu was naturally overjoyed. The biggest problem was easily solved by Tan Kai. The rest depends on the attack power of the Wei army's infantry. As long as Qiantang City is taken down, Lu Kai's tens of thousands of troops will have nowhere to escape.

The soldiers of the infantry battalion were full of fire these days. A few days ago, the attack on Qian Tang was not successful. Yang Hu ordered the troops to remain unmoved. They really had no chance to take revenge, so they could only stare at and anxiously. At this moment, Yang Hu issued an order to attack the city again, and the soldiers of the infantry battalion rushed forward like wolves and tigers. In this battle, they would not give up until they took Qian Tang City.

After the fight again a few days later, the mood of both sides was obviously completely different. A few days ago, the Wu army was confident of having a way out and fighting, but today the way out suddenly disappeared. Qian Tang had become an isolated city. Now most of the Wu army was a little panicked. After the army was dispersed, the fighting spirit naturally disappeared. Faced with the Wei army's offensive like a tide, they could not resist it at all.

Soon, the Wei army rushed to the city and opened a gap. Then, more Wei soldiers rushed to the city, and Qian Tangcheng's defense collapsed.

The Wei army attacked the city gate quickly opened the city gate. The Wei army outside the city gate rushed up and entered the city. Qiantang City fell immediately.

The Wu army could not resist the Wei army's offensive at all, so they could only retreat and retreat to the south gate.

Zhejiang is outside the south gate. In Lu Kai's original plan, even if Qian Tang is lost, the Wu army can retreat from the water route to defend Guling. However, now that the Wu navy has suffered a defeat, the control of the water surface on Zhejiang has fallen into the hands of the Wei army. Even if the Wu army fled to the riverside, there is still no way out.

Lu Kai sighed, if even the navy of Wu was no longer an opponent of the Wei army, then it was only a matter of time before the demise of Wu. If the sky was about to destroy Wu, who could stop it?

Lu Kai was unwilling to surrender and committed suicide by surrendering to the water. Ding Gu did not have the courage to die for the country. He bent his knees and surrendered to the Wei army. Most of the Wu army also chose to surrender to the Wei army. Qian Tangcheng had only held on for less than ten days before it was declared to fall.

While Yang Hu ordered the recruitment of the surrendered troops of the Wu army, he ordered Tan Kai's navy to transport the infantry camp across the river and launch an attack on Guling on the south bank.

The Wu general Gu Rong was stationed in Guling. In order to defend Qian Tang, Lu Kai stationed most of the 30,000 troops he brought in Qian Tang, and only allocated five thousand Gu Rong to build a defensive position in Guling in case of emergency.

At that time, Lu Kai believed that the battle for Qian Tang City was the most important and critical. He definitely could not place all his troops on Guling on the south bank, so most of the main army was still placed in Qian Tang. Only when Qian Tang could not withstand it, Lu Kai would consider withdrawing most of the troops to guard Guling.

But now Qian Tang can't defend it anymore, but after losing the water transportation, the fate of Qian Tang's tens of thousands of defenders was already destined, and they could never return to the south bank of Zhejiang.

When Gu Rong saw that the navy was defeated and Qian Tang lost, he must be the next one to lose. So before the Wei army had time to attack Guling, he led the remaining troops of Guling to abandon the city and fled to Kuaiji.

It will not appear after the Wei army landed. Guling has already been an empty city. Except for the river defense fortifications still the same, there is no one who can see the Wu army in the entire Guling. The Wu army fled without fighting.

This situation has long been accustomed to the Wei army. The fighting spirit of the Wu army seemed to be weaker than that of the Sima army and the Hu people. Once the war was in disadvantage, the chance of the Wu army turning around and running away was stronger. This was the case in Huainan, and the same was true when Jianye was lost. Now that he fought Qian Tang, it was the same. As long as the front was defeated, the Wu army behind would be invincible and escape without a trace.

Yang Hu did not rush to pursue, but led his army across Zhejiang in a row, and then led his troops eastward to Kuaiji County. After Qian Tang lost his position, there was no longer a pass in Kuaiji to block the Wei army's offensive.
