"As ordered."

The generals answered.

Guo Jia led the troops and arrived in Xinye.

Xinye is a dilapidated small town.

The land is only a hundred miles away, and there is no danger to defend.

but.

Guo Jia had planned long ago, and set up a formation here to intercept the enemy.

At least, leave the strength of two divisions.

"Sir, I don't understand why you need to defend a small town like Xinye?" Yuan Yun, the commander of the Seventh Division, asked.

"You all think it's useless here?"

Guo Jia asked several generals around him.

"Hmm, it's useless." No one could see the clue.

Guo Jia said: "Let me tell you. This place in Xinye is very important to this war. Although its terrain is not dangerous, once we hold the defense line of [-] miles from north to south, it is impossible for the enemy to rush into Wancheng This is to prepare for the fall of Fancheng. Only in this way can we go to Fancheng to defend against the enemy with confidence."

Chapter 864 Defending Fancheng

Yuan Yundao: "Sir, don't you have the confidence to defend Fancheng?"

"Those who are good fighters don't think about victory, but about defeat. If you don't do well after the failure, how can you win the final victory? Moreover, the terrain of Fancheng is too small, and our troops cannot be deployed."

"Defending the remaining soldiers in Xinye is also making full use of our army's resources."

Guo Jia explained to the generals.

Everyone understands.

With the Xinye line of defense, they can safely defend against the enemy.

The line of defense is set up.

The army continued southward.

Soon arrived at Dongyang Mountain, which was less than [-] miles away from Fancheng.

The terrain here is dangerous and can be used as an ambush.

Guo Jia left a regiment to garrison Dongyang Mountain, build a line of defense, and set up road cards.

"Sir, General Cheng Pu is here." Xu Chu said.

"Please come here quickly."

Cheng Pu walked over quickly.

He cupped his hands and said, "Sir, General Gan Ning's navy has already been defeated, retreating to the two mouths of the Chuan Gorge, Fancheng is in a hurry. Please send troops quickly, sir."

"understood."

Guo Jia took out the map, glanced at it, frowned and said, "That's not right, why did General Gan retreat to the mouth of the Chuan Gorge? Isn't that in the direction of Yizhou?"

"Alas." Cheng Pu said: "The enemy's firepower is too fierce. Gan Ning's navy can't resist it at all. They were forced to pass."

"The situation in Fancheng is more critical than I imagined. It is not too late, I will lead the army to go immediately." Guo Jia knows the truth that soldiers are precious and fast.

Don't dare to hesitate for a moment.

All the troops, except those stationed at Dongyang Mountain, rushed to Fancheng.

Outside Fancheng, the battle is in full swing.

The river connecting the city is full of warships from Jingzhou. Each warship has heavy artillery and heavy machine guns, firing at the towers of Fancheng to suppress the firepower.

After Huang Gai was on the city, he couldn't lift his head at all.

If it wasn't for the fire oil and boiling water prepared in advance, Fancheng would have fallen at a critical moment.

"The current situation is not good for us." The troops led by Guo Jia are less than 1000 meters away from the front line.Has entered the enemy's attack range.

It was only because of the corner of the tall tower as a cover that it was not attacked.

Through the telescope, see the situation ahead.

Guo Jia ordered: "Let the 14th and 15th brigades go around to the north city, but when they see the fire outside the city, they should fight out immediately. The 16th brigade, covering the artillery regiment, advances to the south. As long as the range is sufficient, it will destroy the enemy warships." .The rest of the troops, follow me in a feint attack from the front to attract the enemy's artillery and buy time for the 16th Brigade."

"Yes."

The surrounding generals responded.

According to Guo Jia's arrangement, all the troops went into battle.
