Han counter current

On the river, when Zhou Yu gathered the remaining soldiers and horses, he realized that his side lost about [-] soldiers in the battle last night. Of course, the enemy lost far more soldiers and horses than his side. But Zhou Yu still couldn't laugh.

"Governor, retreat, if you don't go upstream and downstream of the enemy's navy, you will be killed. In this battle, our army burned most of the enemy's warships in the Chibi area, and killed the enemy's sailors, young and strong, There are no fewer than 6 sailors, which is a great victory.

Coupled with the enemy's food, grass, supplies and various strategic materials burned by our army, it is impossible for the enemy to use the navy to suppress our army in the future.

Within two years, the enemy army will no longer be able to form a naval force of more than [-]. This is a big victory for Jiangdong that cannot be underestimated. Governor, retreat quickly. "

Lu Su has been serving as an aide on Zhou Yu's ship, and he has experienced the entire battle last night.Although his side did not achieve the expected results, it was already considered a big victory for the Jiangdong Army.

"Let's retreat, go back to the big camp first, and discuss other things after we go back. It's a pity that such a good opportunity failed to take down the enemy's big camp on the shore."

After a long time, Zhou Yu said these words, which also means that after the victory, the Jiangdong Navy will return to the water village.This sudden battle finally came to an end after dawn, and the Jiangdong Navy, as the attacker, left with all the spoils.

For the Jiangdong army, this battle was indeed a victory.But to Zhou Yu, such a victory is nothing.Although the enemy's vitality was seriously injured this time, why not on our own side?

It was a miserable victory, and Zhou Yu had learned the meaning of these four words. No one could win this battle.

Chapter 820 Strike and Truce 1

Just half a day before Zhou Yu attacked the enemy in Jiangbei, a large-scale battle broke out in Yangzhou.Tai Shici, who was guarding the south of Yangzhou, was supported by [-] troops led by He Qi, a fierce general from Jiangdong. After his morale was greatly increased, he took the initiative to make an appointment to fight and invited Zhang Xiu to fight.

Zhang Xiu, who had just led the army to the north of Yangzhou, was even more furious when he heard about it. This Tai Shi Ci was obviously looking for his bad luck. Seeing him coming to make trouble when he first arrived in Yangzhou, how could Zhang Xiu endure such an arrogant opponent? .

The day before, Yan Cheng had already led the troops of his headquarters to the water village in the lower reaches of Chibi to supervise the defense, and the affairs of Yangzhou were temporarily undertaken by Zhang Xiu and Lu Xiao.

Wen Meng led his troops and escorted some supplies and prisoners back to Chang'an. Right now, there was no other force in Yangzhou, Tai Shici took the initiative, and Zhang Xiu also responded to the battle. Naturally, this battle was unavoidable.

Finally, Tai Shici sent [-] troops to line up outside the city.Zhang Xiu personally led a large army of [-] cavalry and [-] infantry. In addition, [-] elite cavalry led by Lu Xiao came to break the formation.

After the initial trial by the two sides, it soon turned into a contest between large-scale forces.Zhang Xiu took advantage of the cavalry on his side to intimidate, drive, and divide the enemy, but Tai Shici led [-] cavalry to rescue the emergency and stabilized the formation.

Until the end, the generals of both sides were unwilling to delay any longer, and directly commanded the remaining soldiers and horses to advance, and the two armies started a scuffle in this wilderness.

And Tai Shici and Zhang Xiu brandished their weapons and led their own soldiers to fight against each other.Anyway, the battlefield is in chaos, and they don't bother to command anymore.

Among the soldiers of the two armies, the most eye-catching one is Lu Xiao. After he sent two thousand cavalry to wait for the opportunity to ride and shoot outside, he personally led the two thousand cavalry to rush back and forth in the enemy formation, constantly interspersed among the enemy's various departments .

The young general Zhang Quan led a thousand cavalry to imitate Lu Xiao, and also wanted to make a name for himself in Yangzhou, and even wanted to prove his ability in front of his father.

When Yan Cheng led the army to aid Yangzhou, Zhang Quan begged to follow him, because he wanted to make a name for himself in Yangzhou, the second battlefield.

"The thieves don't want to be crazy, Tai Shixiang is coming..."

Tai Shici's son was not willing to be lonely, and led more than a thousand troops to catch Zhang Quan and start fighting. He was also a young general, and he was also arrogant.

It's just that Zhang Quan's men are obviously better at field battles. Compared with the men led by Tai Shixiang, Zhang Quan's men are more fierce, and they are all cavalry. They charged fiercely and suppressed the enemy for a while.

"You are such a brave young general. Unexpectedly, even the major general can't resist. Hmph, since you are the son of Zhang Xiu, I will shoot you today. Once Zhang Xiu gets distracted, the general will definitely be able to kill the Northern Spear King."

In a certain corner, Tai Shici's lieutenant Ma Zhong made up his mind, then put down his weapon, and called the soldiers around him to protect him. Soon, he took out his bow and arrow and aimed at Zhang Quan in the distance.

On the other side, Zhang Xiu and Tai Shici had fought for nearly forty rounds. The two had competed from riding skills to archery skills, and then they were fighting with long weapons.

One is the Northland Spear King who has been famous for many years, and the other is Donglai Taishi Ci who is well-known in the north and south of the river. Neither side accepts the other, but neither can do anything to the other.

"Zhang Xiu, I thought you were so capable, the title of the Northern Spear King was not boasted by yourself.

I met me today, so that you can know the bravery of Jiangdong men. "

In addition to the battle, Tai Shici was still able to speak out provocative words, it seemed that he wanted to use psychological tactics to anger Zhang Xiu.It's a pity that Zhang Xiu is not a rookie like Wen Meng, so how can he let the other party trick him.

"Tai Shici, you were originally a fierce general of Donglai, why did you run to the territory of Jiangdong to be a coward. Now that you have forgotten your master, you have the nerve to call Xuan yourself a man of Jiangdong.

Now that the entire Qingzhou has fallen into the hands of my lord, don't you want to go back to your hometown to have a look?

In the early years, I heard that you were extremely filial to your mother, but why did you leave your hometown when your mother was still alive? Do you know how much your mother suffered after you left, and what happened to your clansmen,,,,,, "

In terms of scheming, Zhang Xiu is not inferior to Tai Shici, no matter what, he was once a prince, how could Zhang Xiu let the other party trick him.

With just a few words, Tai Shici was speechless, and the movements of his hands were even a little slower. Now that Zhang Xiu caught the opportunity, he chased and beat him fiercely, and Tai Shici gradually fell into the disadvantaged.

"The thief will be despicable, dare to sneak attack, eat me with an arrow,,,,,,"

While Zhang Xiu and Tai Shici were wrestling, a roar came from the side of the battlefield, and then Lu Xiao, who was in the distance, bent his bow and set an arrow, and shot down an arrow that was about to hit Zhang Quan.

Soon, Lu Xiao looked around the battlefield and found Ma Zhong, who was shooting cold arrows. He was not polite at the moment, and shot three arrows directly. Although Ma Zhong had good skills, one arrow still hit his thigh.

Then, Lu Xiao led the [-] cavalry around him to rush into the center of the battlefield and directly charged towards Zhang Quan and Tai Shixiang who were fighting. Judging by the posture, he wanted to directly kill Tai Shixiang on the spot.

"Zixiu is merciful, he is your fellow apprentice at least..."

Seeing that Lu Xiao was about to make a move, Tai Shici, who was suppressed by Zhang Xiu, quickly yelled. This shout made Lu Xiao take [-]% of his strength and saved Tai Shixiang's life, but it distracted Tai Shici. The tiger-head spear embroidered had already pierced Tai Shici's shoulder.

"Hmph, you dare to be distracted even if you're a master, don't you think your life won't last long, Tai Shi Ci, you've let me down so much..."

Zhang Xiu was indeed very angry. He thought he could have a good fight with Tai Shici, but he didn't expect this guy to be distracted at a critical moment. Although he won, he won't win by force.

"If there is an opportunity in the future, Ziyi will definitely come to ask for advice..."

After finishing speaking, Tai Shici cupped his hands at Zhang Xiu, and turned to run to Tai Shixiang, who was shot off by Lu Xiao. In the afternoon, if the fight continued, there would be no winner. It seemed that Tai Shici wanted to withdraw his troops up.

"Zi Yi, thank you for your mercy."

"Junior brother of the same school? You mean you,,,,,,"

"Hehe, Wen Hou and I are originally from the same school. Why, don't you think our halberd technique is very similar? Back then, my master and Wen Hou's master learned the art together, and later each took apprentices.

Marquis Wen is old and famous earlier, he even pointed out my martial arts back then. To be honest, it was many years ago, Zixiu, these days are my fault, Master Uncle apologized to you, there will be a later date , Xiang'er, let's go,,,,,,"

What Tai Shici said made people puzzled. Those who didn't know it thought he came here specially to say goodbye.Today's battle lasted for almost a day, and there was really no need for the two sides to fight fiercely. Soon, Zhang Xiu also retreated to the camp to discuss the next attack route.

Chapter 821 Strike and Truce 2

In the territory of Chibi, all the navy of the Jiangdong Army retreated. Although Zhou Yu was unwilling, he still had to retreat, because Yan Cheng led the navy from the downstream, and Huang Zhong also sent the navy to reinforce the upstream.

It was only after the two groups of soldiers joined Gao Zhong's subordinates that they realized how fierce the battle had broken out here.Puffs of black smoke still rose from the shore, and the wreckage of warships was everywhere on the river, as well as the bodies of many war dead.

"General, caught a big fish,,,,,,"

Gao Zhong, who was staring at the river in a daze, was interrupted from thinking, and his own soldiers rushed to report that he had captured a prisoner with identity.Originally, Gao Zhong didn't need to intervene in such trivial matters, but after hearing the prisoner's name, Gao Zhong couldn't help but go to see the prisoner's situation.

Huang Gai, cowering on a dilapidated warship, never imagined that he would become a prisoner in the end.In the battle last night, he exhausted his last strength to cover Zhou Tai, but in the end he was hit by more than a dozen arrows and fell into the water.

Fortunately, several loyal and brave soldiers saw him, and even jumped into the water to rescue him, hid him on a warship, intending to send him back after the battle was over.

It's a pity that this battle ended beyond the expectations of the Jiangdong Army. Huang Gai was seriously injured, and after soaking in the water for so long, the time spent hiding on the boat has already missed the best time for medical treatment.

"It really is General Huang, junior Gao Zhong, you are very polite here."
