Chapter 582 (1/2)

Pound sat on his horse's back and looked at the iron rope across the river, and he couldn't help smiling.

”Although our army is short of Navy, it is enough to contain the Navy with the iron cable across the river.”

With that, pound laughed and waved his whip.

”Brothers, let's go!”

Five thousand iron cavalry followed pound and galloped toward the South...

the fierce offensive and defensive battle of Wancheng was still in progress. Under the suppression of the Navy's firepower, the Jingzhou army continued to attack Wancheng city. Countless Jingzhou soldiers mounted the city one after another, waving their weapons to fight with Nanyang soldiers, but they were driven out of the city again and again Head.

The city defense of Wancheng was very strong. Zhang jaw and Li Yan were famous generals who were good at fighting. Moreover, the number of defenders in the city was more than 10000, so they beat back the attacks of Jingzhou soldiers again and again. The attack and defense war lasted from the morning to the evening. At most, the Jingzhou army only attacked the front line of the women's wall, and then was defeated by Nanyang soldiers swarming from under the city wall.

”Retreat, retreat!”

”The sound of Ming Jin has sounded. It's time for us to withdraw.”

”Finally, I was hit by an arrow, ouch...”

the Jingzhou Army Navy suddenly sounded the sound of Ming Jin. The Jingzhou soldiers who were fighting on the top of the city were relieved one after another. Then they retreated back in a hurry, and one by one they retreated along the cloud ladder to the head of Wancheng.

”This city is worthy of being a heavy city.” Zhang Yun sighed: ”it's a pity that it was stolen by Yuan highway and then fell into the hands of Liu Ye.”

Cai Mao snorted coldly and did not answer. He just asked, ”how much food and grass are there in the army?”

”Report to governor Cai that the army was in a hurry, so most of the grain and grass were unloaded in the city of Yuyang, and our army's grain and forage can last seven days.” Cai Zhong was in a hurry.

Cai Mao frowned: ”seven days is not enough, send a letter to Yuyang, let Cai Xun escort seven days of grain and grass.”

”Cai Du means that it takes half a month to attack Wancheng?” Zhang Yun asked.

”Hum, not necessarily. Maybe it will take longer.” There was no expression on Cai Mao's face, with some coldness.

Yuyang city.

In the Han River, more than a dozen boats were moving slowly along the Han River. These boats had a deep draft because they were ordered by Cai Xun to transport grain and grass from the direction of Yuyang to Wancheng. On top of each boat, there was a flag of Jingzhou army, showing its style.

In the middle of the boat, standing on top of a boat, wearing Jingzhou army dress, lazy in the sun.

”Dubo, didn't Cai Du say that he could take Wancheng in three days? Why do we have to send seven more days of food and grass? ”

A pawn came over and asked the officer in Jingzhou.

”What do you know?” The commander of Jingzhou army said lazily, ”before the general leads the army, he has to boast about the situation. This is called boosting morale. If governor Cai told us that this battle will last for a year, would you still like to fight?”

”No, no, No The pawn shook his head. If he had been fighting for a year, he would still be able to survive.

”Don't mind that much.” ”Anyway, we are stationed in Yuyang. At most, we will send some food and grass to Wancheng. We don't have to take part in the attack. It's very safe. Although there is no reward, it's good to keep a cheap life. ”

”Yes.” The soldiers agreed.
