Ancestor Huang had sent out his troops, and he had sent out his entire army. He had directly led 50,000 troops straight to the Yangtze River mouth!
As for the Jiangdong Army, if they wanted to successfully capture Jiangxia, they would have to come by water. Therefore, there was still some distance between Jiangxia and the Jiangdong Army's landing point!
Unless the other party directly invaded the Jiangxia Water Stronghold. However, Jiangxia was already on guard, and the 30,000-strong navy had come out in full force!
No matter how brave the Jiangdong Navy was, it was impossible for them to defeat the 30,000-strong Jiangxia Navy and invade West-Hill!
Therefore, the only landing point for the Jiangdong Army was the Yangtze River Estuarine, which was 30 miles away from Xiling City!
Thus, Huang Zu himself led 20,000 troops by land and headed straight for the Yangtze River Eatery. The remaining 30,000 troops were led by Huang Zu's trusted aide, Wu Cheng!
They advanced on land and water, heading straight for the Yangtze River Eatery!
This mighty military might was naturally detected by the Jiangdong Army, and they went back to report to their commander, Cheng Pu!
Speaking of which, Jiang Dong would basically lead an army to invade Jiangxia once a year. This had already become a routine!
After all, Sun Jian, the Tiger of River East, and the father of Sun Quan, the current ruler of River East, had died at the hands of Huang Zu!
Moreover, if River East wanted to develop and achieve hegemony, they had to seize Jing State!
Jiangxia was the first step for Jiangdong to seize Jingzhou. Therefore, the battle between Jiangxia and Jiangdong had been going on for more than ten years!
Unfortunately, there were not many soldiers in River East. Each time they sent out only 30,000 to 50,000 people, it was not enough to defeat Jiang Xia, who had 50,000 soldiers stationed there!
Moreover, in the past, Huang Zu had always defended West-Hill to the death, which was why Jiangdong could not take down Jiangxia!
This time, Jiang Dong sent 30,000 navy troops from the Yangtze River to take down Jiang Xia by land!
However, the 30,000 navy led by Cheng Pu was still discovered by the Jiangxia Navy the moment they approached and informed Ancestor Huang!
One had to know that in the world today, only the navy of Jingzhou and Yangzhou could cross the Yangtze River!
Although the Jiangdong Navy was valiant, their numbers were far less than the Jingzhou Navy, so the two sides could not take advantage of each other!
At the same time, Kou Feng had also received news of the invasion of River East!
However, even if he was discovered by the Jiangxia garrison, Cheng Pu didn't want to retreat because his old lord, Sun Jian, who was like a brother to him, had died in the hands of Huang Zu!
If there was a chance, Cheng Pu wouldn't mind exchanging his life for his own. He would kill Ancestor Huang to pay tribute to Sun Jian's spirit in heaven!
It could also be said that Jiang Xia was a thorn in the mouth of the entire River East. As long as it was not removed for a day, it would feel a sharp pain!
After all, apart from Sun Jian who died at the hands of the Yellow Ancestor, there was also the Great General of the Eastern Wu, Ling Cao, who had countless soldiers!
However, when Huang Zu led 20,000 infantry to the Yangtze River Eatery, he did not find any trace of Kou Feng!
On the contrary, these twenty thousand soldiers directly collided with the thirty thousand soldiers of River East!
……
"Reporting, reporting to General Cheng Pu, Huang Zu is leading 20,000 soldiers and charging straight at our army!”
At this moment, Cheng Pu, who had just led 30,000 soldiers off the warship and formed an army formation, was also in disbelief when he heard this!
Looking at the messenger in front of him, Cheng Pu asked suspiciously!
"Are you saying that the Yellow Ancestor did not defend the city this time, but led 20,000 infantry towards our army?”
Hearing Cheng Pu's words, the messenger nodded in agreement!
"That's right, General. This time, the Yellow Ancestor has sent two armies on the water route, heading straight for our army!”
After the messenger's repeated confirmation, a valiant general immediately strode out from the tent and cupped his hands at Cheng Pu!
"General Cheng Pu, this is a godsend opportunity. In the past, when our army attacked, the Yellow Ancestor would only defend the city. This time, we don't know why the entire army has been mobilized. This is a good opportunity to take down Jiangxia!”
Cheng Pu looked at the valiant general in front of him and asked in confusion when he heard these words!
"I always feel that there is something strange about it. Did the Yellow Ancestor change his personality or is he so confident that he thinks he can compete with my River East?”
"However, since this is an opportunity, General Taishi Ci, you will lead ten thousand soldiers first. If there is a chance to kill Ancestor Huang, I will lead the army to support him!”
"This way, even if Patriarch Huang sets up a trap, we can help each other and ensure that the army doesn't fall!”
Taishi Ci immediately left the tent after Cheng Pu gave the order. Then, he led more than 10,000 Jiangdong elites and charged toward Ancestor Huang!
Then, Cheng Pu paced back and forth in the tent and continued!
"General Zhu Zhi, General Chen Wu, I order you to lead 10,000 soldiers and take the warships to fight against the Jiangxia Navy. You must cut off the connection between the Jiangxia Army and the water army!”
"At the same time, send Mengchong to inform General Han Dang behind us that you will attack us from the front and back.”
When Chen Wu and Zhu Zhi heard Cheng Pu's words, they immediately obeyed the order and left!
Seeing Cheng Pu's arrangement, Huang Gai, who was traveling with him, was puzzled!
"De Mou, this is a heaven-sent opportunity. Why are you so hesitant? If you kill Ancestor Huang, you can take Jiangxia!”
"Firstly, it will allow Yangzhou to achieve hegemony and encroach on Jingzhou. Secondly, it will also be able to avenge the old lord. Isn't it a waste to arrange these ten thousand soldiers in the Yangtze River?”
Cheng Pu helplessly glanced at his old friend and sighed when he heard this.
" How could I not know that this is a godsend opportunity? But I still feel that this matter is very strange, as if there is a big hand behind everything!”
"Tell me, when did Huang Zu fight such a battle with us? Doesn't he know that our Jiangdong army is far stronger than his Jiangxia army?”
"In the past, Ancestor Huang had always defended the city to the death, which was why we had nowhere to attack. Now that he suddenly came out in full force, I feel that it's not appropriate!”
When Huang Gai heard this, he pondered for a moment and said!
"Then you still let Ziyi lead the army. If anything happens, how are we going to explain to the lord?”
Taishi Ci, also known as Ziyi, was the number one fierce general in River East. If anything happened to him, it would be really difficult for River East to touch Jiangxia in the future!
Cheng Pu muttered when he heard Huang Gai's words!
"However, Ancestor Huang is right in front of us. If I don't kill him, it will be difficult to appease the hatred in my heart.”
"If anything happens to Ziyi, we can save him in time!”
On the other side, Kou Feng, who was watching the battle between the Jiangdong Army and the Huangzu Army, smiled.
