Chapter 2545 two wings fly together
After the Wei army arrived at the south bank of Lushui, they did not immediately launch an attack, but instead set up camps on the south bank, facing the Shu army camp on the north bank, across the river.
Yang Hu was not too anxious to attack the Wudao. Now that the Wei army was stationed on the south bank of Lushui, it brought endless pressure to Jiang Wei. Under the pressure, the Shu army's morale and fighting spirit would have problems, including Jiang Wei's command, and Yang Hu was not in a hurry to attack, and he also had the intention of waiting for Jiang Wei to make a mistake.
Of course, this is related to Yang Hu's calm personality. Not fighting unprepared battles has always been Yang Hu's life creed. Perhaps Yang Hu is not the best among the generals of the Wei army who are good at fighting raids, nor is he the most prominent in his military achievements, but he is the most stable one.
Those who are good at fighting have no great achievements, so it is Yang Hu. Over the years, Yang Hu has been firmly in the position of the commander-in-chief of the Central Army and rarely has dangerous achievements, but he is Cao Liang's most trusted general. Among the three major legions, the Central Legion has the farthest journey to the expedition, the largest territory, and the most merits he has obtained. These are inseparable from Yang Hu's style of conduct and personality traits.
During this attack on Wudao, Yang Hu was even more calm and calm. Yang Hu was well aware of the way of using troops and knew that in this situation, he didn't need to panic or hurry. The real anxious was the enemy, and the real chaos was the enemy. The so-called mistakes in busyness and chess in chaos were often the reason. The arrival of the Wei army would inevitably make the Shu army quite nervous, especially when the three armies of the Wei army attacked the three key areas of the Shu army at the same time, it would be extremely difficult for the Shu army, which was at a disadvantage in terms of military strength to deal with it.
At this time, Jiang Wei needs to make the right response. If you make a mistake by step, you will often be doomed, so Jiang Wei will definitely be under considerable pressure at this time.
When the main force of the Wei army attacked the Jade Road, Jiang Wei naturally had to concentrate his troops on the Jade Road to fight, but the strength of the Shu army was limited after all. If there were too many people left in Jade Road, then Jiangyang and Tanglang would face the problem of insufficient troops. These three Jiang defenses are the key points of the Shu army and cannot be missed. The Shu army's defense mission is very heavy.
Moreover, Jiang Wei must always be wary of the Wei army's tricks. Although the current attack route of the Wei army is clear and clear, no one knows whether there is anything wrong with it. If the Wei army attacks the east and attacks the west and catches the Shu army off guard, then the Shu army will definitely suffer a great loss if it fails to respond in time.
Therefore, Jiang Wei has always maintained a high alert state and always keeps a watch for the movements of the Wei army. At this critical moment, the role of the scout is extremely important. They have firmly watched the movements of any army of the Wei army. Once there is any disturbance, the information will be transmitted to Jiangbei in a timely manner to provide assistance to Jiang Wei's next action.
The Wei army led the attack on Jiangyang's Guoqi Camp.
The troops were under the command of Zhang Tong. Although the Guoqi Battalion was a cavalry unit, after launching the crossing of the river, the cavalry could be used as infantry sailors.
The Wei army had prepared the ferry boats and pontoon bridges for crossing the river in advance. The Yangtze River in Jiangyang is far from as wide and vast as the middle and lower reaches. For the Wei army, apart from the rapid flow of water, the Yangtze River here is no different from other rivers. With the Wei army's ability to cross a river, it is not difficult to cross such a river.
The Guoqi battalion is the most omnipotent team. When they ride on horses, they are cavalry, charge and are invincible. When they get off horses, they are infantry, they are strong cities and villages, and they are invincible. When they get on boats, they are sailors, crossing rivers and rivers, like walking on flat ground.
At this time, they were ordered to cross the river from Jiangyang to attack the Shu army's Jiang defense forces. The soldiers of the Guoqi Battalion got off their horses without hesitation and boarded the ferry and launched a fierce attack on the other side.
The Shu army had mobilized enough troops in Jiangyang, and even mobilized all the troops on the nearby Jiang defense line to Jiangyang. However, in the face of the Wei army's large-scale attack, the Shu army was very difficult to deal with.
The defense of the Shu army could only be to use bows and arrows or crossbows, but the Wei army's ferry was designed with thickened wooden board structures, and a barrier shaped like a giant shield was set up at the bow. Most of the arrows shot by the Shu army were absorbed by giant shields, and with the shields in the hands of the Wei army, they were simply unscathed.
There was no chance to kill the Shu army halfway. They could only launch an attack when the Wei army attacked the shore and were about to get off the ship. However, once the Wei army crossed the river, hundreds of people rushed forward together, which made the Shu army's defense very difficult. After fighting fiercely for many days, the entire Jiangyang defense line was Ji Jike. The Shu generals responsible for guarding Jiangyang could not watch Jiangyang fall, but could only ask Jiang Wei for help from reinforcements.
The day after the Wei army in Jiangyang launched its operation, Tanglang's Wei army also launched an attack. The river water in Jiangyang had already accepted the Minjiang River, while Tanglang's Lu River was narrower than Jiangyang and the water flow was smaller.
Such a river surface is even easier for the Wei army to fight.
The person responsible for attacking Tanglang was the Changshui Camp commanded by Wen Qin. The grain escort officer who was previously appointed by Wen Qin was responsible for the supply of grain and grass for the army. This was an important responsibility. Wen Qin did not refuse at all and took the initiative to undertake logistics affairs.
For veterans like Wen Qin, doing logistics is equivalent to giving credit to others for nothing. Without killing enemies, there is no chance to make merits and receive rewards. However, Wen Qin worked hard and was willing to give credit to other generals, which was reflected in his noble character as a veteran.
The task of escorting grain and transporting grass was solved. The Wei army units that were originally transferred were rebuilt, and Wen Qin returned to his previous position as deputy governor and took on the task of attacking Xiang Tanglang.
Changshui Camp is the purest infantry team. As one of the five Northern Army schools, Changshui Camp is one of the earliest teams after the Yueqi Camp and one of the most elite infantry teams of the Wei army. It is invincible to conquer cities and land.
At this moment, under the command of Wen Qin, Changshui Camp launched an attack on the Shu army that was facing the shore defense. The battle situation became very fierce from the beginning. The Wei army continued to attack the Shu army's positions, making the Shu army's defense line shaky.
As a last resort, the defenders of the Shu army were also urgently asking Jiang Wei for help, just like Jiang Yang's Shu army. If Jiang Wei refused to send troops to defend, Jiang Yang and Tang Lang would soon fall into the hands of the Wei army.
When Jiang Wei heard the battle situation between the east and west, he couldn't help but frown.
