In addition, three thousand men from the Hong tribe took over the defense of East and West Ershi Mountain;

Zuo Feilongwei's 4,800 men marched eastward to Wokou and monitored the direction of Yicheng - Huainan County has three counties on the north bank of the Huai River, namely Xiacai, Ping'a, and Yicheng. Among them, Xiacai and Ping'a have been for many years.

The battle was abandoned long ago by the Wu soldiers and the people were moved away, but Yicheng County was still in their hands.

In the end, there were thousands of naval forces, but Zhang Shuo didn't take them seriously at all, because Yang Bao was so cowardly that he only dared to put stakes in the river and did not dare to actively seek out Jiangdong naval forces for a battle.

On the fifth day of June, after receiving the news about the battles between Hubingtang and Chengde, he had a rough idea of ​​the strength of the opponent.

In the afternoon of the same day, he left General Xu Lang of the Zuo Feilong Guard to guard Shouchun, and the navy commander Yang Bao was his deputy. He led the entire Silver Spear Battalion of 6,000 men, the Proton Army of 1,000 men, the Zuo Feilong Guard Division of 1,200 men, and all the troops.

There were 7,000 strong men in the county, and a total of 15,000 cavalry rushed southward, heading straight towards Chengde to help Zu Yue.

The next day after he left, a large fleet sailed on the Huai River.

There were no less than five hundred ships, large and small, following the southeast wind, using both oars and sails, and sailing upstream with great momentum.

On the early morning of the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, the vanguard fleet arrived near the mouth of the vortex.

In the drizzle, the thick crossbow arrows flew with great force towards the soldiers of Zuo Feilong Weiyanggu and Erlong Mansion in the county and township who were camping near the mouth of the vortex.

Chen Yingen, the rural governor who was stationed here, was furious.

However, the thieves never came ashore to fight them, so they had no choice but to pass on the news as quickly as possible.

After noon on the seventh day of the lunar month, the vanguard of the Jin navy arrived near Bagong Mountain.

On the wide river, the sound of drums rumbled constantly.

When they were about to approach the barrage, several boats came forward, tied thick ropes to the wooden stakes, and then dragged them downstream, trying to remove the water obstruction at Feikou.

At the end of the day, Jin general Han Huang led 3,000 men, under the cover of the navy, landed on the south bank and advanced towards Bagong Mountain.

At the same time, Tong Jian led 3,000 people to the north bank and landed near Xiacai County, which had mostly collapsed.

Almost instantly, the battle near Shouchun started.
Chapter completed!
