After paying three pieces of horseshoe gold, Ling Tong finally left Lexiang on the second day.
But for Ling Tong, these gold ingots were worth every penny, and he was able to see the military situation in Lexiang with his own eyes.
This situation greatly increased his confidence and gave him sufficient confidence to attack Lexiang.
So these three gold ingots not only bought valuable information, but they even bought the entire Lexiang.
When Ling Tong returned to Tuoshuikou, he immediately summoned his deputy generals Sheng Xian and Luo Tong.
However, Ling Tong was cautious in using his troops and did not directly state his intention to attack. Instead, he first asked the generals about their preparations.
"Sheng Jiangjun, General Luo, Japan will arrange for you to lead troops for training in the past few days to familiarize yourself with the water conditions of the Yangtze River. I wonder what the results are so far?"
Sheng Xian and Luo Tong glanced at each other, and then Sheng Xian stepped forward and said, "Reporting to the general, my subordinates have not dared to rest for a moment these days.
Although in order to avoid being noticed by the enemy, all the large troops could not be pulled out, but they were broken into parts and trained in batches day and night.
Although I dare not boast that I am completely familiar with it, the soldiers have already adapted to it. When they encounter the enemy navy in time, they have a winning rate of more than 60%. "
After hearing this, Ling Tong looked overjoyed and said: "Okay! Thank you for your hard work, two generals. In this case, I have confidence in my heart.
To be honest with you two, these Japanese generals also traveled hundreds of miles upstream and downstream, and even went into the cities of Yidao and Lexiang to find out.
We already know the enemy¡¯s defensive arrangements along the Yangtze River, so it¡¯s time for the brothers to stretch their muscles! "
Sheng Xian and Luo Tongtong listened and immediately became excited.
After all, the previous battles in Dangyang and Zhijiang were dominated by infantry and cavalry.
Naturally, their navy cannot exert its maximum strength on land, so some time ago they were more responsible for the logistics task of transporting supplies along the river.
For them, this is really overkill, and naturally they have some ideas in mind.
Therefore, when Liu Ke sent them out, they finally rekindled their fighting spirit. They have been training day and night in the past few days, waiting for the day when they will make a contribution.
So Luo Tong said without hesitation: "General, tell me where we are going to attack? To be honest, my brothers have been frustrated for a long time!"
Seeing that his two generals were so confident, Ling Tong couldn't help laughing and said: "Hahahaha! General Luo, don't be impatient, I won't waste you.
The goal this time has been chosen long ago, I¡¯m just waiting for you to complete your training.
Since we are so confident now, we will set off tomorrow and go straight to Lexiang! "
Ling Tong then made careful arrangements and laid out the battle arrangements at that time, making sure that everything was foolproof.
Ling Tong understood in his heart that this time Liu Ke arranged for him to attack Lexiang, which was not just as simple as capturing a small county.
For them, this attack is not only confidential, but also very important.
He will be directly related to the outcome of the battle in Zhijiang.
Thanks to Xun Lingjun, who saw Sun Quan's strategic intention to divide the river and rule it, he only wanted to capture Lexiang on the south bank of the Yangtze River.
It is equivalent to tearing a hole in this natural moat defense line.
At that time, you can use the bridgehead of Lexiang to attack the opponent's defense line wantonly, completely crushing Sun Quan's strategic intentions.
So for this reason, we must ensure that our attack is foolproof.
Whether it is before the attack or during the attack, it must be extremely confidential.
Until we capture Lexiang, we cannot alert the enemies in other directions.
Therefore, Ling Tong also made an extremely bold decision, which was to march towards Lexiang in the early morning and capture the enemies in other directions before they could react.
After Sheng Xian and Luo Tong received the order, they immediately went down to prepare.
It was midnight and the sky was still dark, so the army quietly set off from Tuoshuikou.
The Yangtze River is very quiet at night. Due to the recent war in Jingzhou, there are very few ships plying the Yangtze River.
At night, there was almost no sound, so along the way, except for the occasional howling of unknown beasts from both sides of the strait, there was no sound at all.
This navy also received the most stringent orders from the commander. During the march, no one was allowed to make a sound
So at this moment, there was only the sound of the boats breaking through the water, but the sound of the river water hitting the shore was very insignificant and was completely covered up by it.
Therefore, this army is like a fleet of ghost ships, quietly moving forward on the water.
Until early in the morning, the sky began to light up, but there was still a layer of mist floating on the water, which made the fleet even more secretive.
At this moment, the navigator finally discovered that in the mist, a huge thing emerged from the shore on the south side.
This is naturally the city wall of Lexiang.
He quickly ran down to report to Ling Tong. After Ling Tong got the news, he immediately issued an order to proceed according to yesterday's arrangement.
So, the original fleet immediately separated and headed in different directions.
One of the teams, led by Ling Tong, continued to head towards Lexiang from the water.
The other team, led by the two generals Sheng Xian and Luo Tong, slowly moved towards the south bank.
Their mission was to land in the upper reaches of Lexiang and then rush to Lexiang by land.
Although abandoning ships and fighting on foot is a waste of the navy's advantage, it is also a last resort.
After all, Ling Tong¡¯s last trip to Lexiang not only explored the defensive forces on the water, but also the defense on land.
The north gate of Lexiang is close to the Yangtze River ferry, and Ling Tong attacked from this direction.
But in order to ensure that all the enemy troops are destroyed and avoid escaping through the south gate during the attack.
Therefore, special arrangements were made for Sheng Siam and Luo Tong to ambush on the southern land route after landing.
When the opponent is attacked from the water surface, he will definitely flee from other directions to ask for support.
? Then he will immediately be surrounded by this army, and finally the Lexiang garrison will be wiped out without anyone noticing.
Sheng and Siam took advantage of the early morning mist to finally reach the shore.
This place is not like a man-made ferry. The shore is very rugged and dangerous.
But the two of them waded through the water and finally successfully landed ashore.
This place is only five miles away from Lexiang. If the enemy general was cautious, he should have set up defenses along the line.
But because the defender of Lexiang was careless and underestimated the enemy, no one was alarmed during the landing of the army.
After the army landed, they regrouped and then marched toward Lexiang without saying a word. It didn't take long before they saw the city wall not far away. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
