Chapter 533: A Battle Against the City!

The next day, in the early afternoon. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

To the east of Chaisang, nearly 40,000 landed ashore and, under the cover of the navy, advanced to a position fifteen miles east of Chaisang.

As far as the eye can see, I can only see the endless Wuzi flag, rolling endlessly like waves, and the sharp blades of guns and halberds are pointing straight to the sky, and the forest is like a forest.

In the direction of the Wu Army, the king flag with the word "Wu" is flying in the wind, showing the arrogance of domineering.

Sun Ce sat on a war horse on his hips, wearing a silver battle armor, and a silver spear in his hand hunted brightly, and in the eyes of the eagle, the belief in victory was wildly burned.

Sun Ce's self-confidence has his own reason.

Since he led an army of 40,000 and landed on the south bank, he pushed all the way to Xiping, and even Ke several Wei army camps, forcing the Wei army to retreat step by step, until he retreated to the first line of Chaisang City.

Sun Ce confidently believed that the pottery merchant's retreat was due to his insufficient troops, and he did not dare to confront his 40,000 army head-on, so he had to do it as a last resort.

The fundamental reason why the potter was afraid was that the strength of his navy was essentially inferior to his own Great Wu sailor.

If you want to gain a foothold on both sides of the Yangtze River, if you don't have a strong naval army, no matter how strong the camp is and how powerful the cavalry is, you will not be able to gain an advantage.

Looking at the direction of Chaisang, Sun Ce raised a sneer at the corner of his mouth, and muttered in his mouth: "Tao thief, you finally taste the taste of fear, do you think that if you are cowering in Chaisang City, this king will have nothing to do with you, wait for this king to force the city to go down, and wait until Tai Shici captures your iron lock Hengjiang array, this king can cut off your way back, and when the time comes, you will be trapped in this Jiangnan, hehe......"

The more he thought about it, the more proud he became, and the pride on Sun Ce's face burned like a raging fire, but soon, he was interrupted by a scout who rode towards him.

The scout came to report, saying that outside the city of Chaisang ahead, the Wei army was found and was waiting in formation.

"Back to the city? Could it be that the pottery thief doesn't plan to hold on, and he still wants to fight me in a decisive battle? Sun Ce frowned, and then asked, "How many enemy troops are there out of the city?" ”

The scout replied that there were about 10,000 of them, and all of them were cavalry.

10,000 cavalry!

As a southerner, hearing the 10,000 cavalry, Sun Ce's expression couldn't help but move slightly, as if a trace of jealousy flashed instinctively.

"10,000 cavalry, this should be all the army of the pottery thief, it seems that he wants to rely on the advantage of cavalry to compete with us outside Chaisang City." Pang Tong next to him analyzed.

Sun Ce's face quickly ignited with disdain, and his eyes burst with excitement, and he sneered: "The pottery thief wants a decisive battle, which is exactly what this king wants, and this king will eat all his cavalry in one go, and gather the pottery thieves under Chaisang City in one fell swoop!" ”

Seeing that Sun Ce was so arrogant, Pang Tong couldn't help but remind: "King, the cavalry of the pottery thief is very good, since he dares to fight, he must have a chance of winning in his heart, and our army cannot be underestimated in this decisive battle." ”

Pang Tong was quite calm, and before Sun Ce could speak, Zhou Tai said proudly: "Mr. Shiyuan, don't forget, this land south of the Yangtze River is not his northern plain, and you can let his cavalry gallop." ”

Pang was speechless when he was unified.

Then, Sun Ce sneered again: "The pottery thief thinks that he is the only one who has cavalry, and my Great Wu is only good at water warfare and not cavalry warfare, he probably forgot that this king also has a cavalry available!" ”

Although Wu is located in the south of the Yangtze River, there is no place to produce horses, and there has always been little cavalry, but in recent years, the number of cavalry has suddenly increased greatly.

The reason is Liu Bei's help.

Since Liu Bei became dominant in Youyan, in order to use Wu to contain part of the strength of the pottery merchants, he made peace with Sun Ce several times from the sea, and gave Sun Ce thousands of Youyan horses from the sea.

It was with Liu Bei's "generosity" that Sun Ce formed a cavalry corps of about 4,000 people in just one year.

As for the cavalry generals, although he Sun Ce is a southerner, he is proficient in the combat of the three arms of the water and land cavalry, and he himself is an excellent cavalry general.

It was precisely because of the 4,000 cavalry that Sun Ce dared to boldly land on the shore, ignoring the superiority of the potter's cavalry.

The generals on the left and right were all infected by Sun Ce's self-confidence, and their fighting spirit was flourishing for a while.

Sun Ce's confidence was almost bursting, so he pointed the silver spear in his hand in the direction of Chaisang, and said proudly: "The pottery thief despises my Dawu no cavalry, so this king will give him a big surprise, pass the order, the whole army advances, before tonight, this king wants to recapture Chaisang!" ”

Under the order, 40,000 ambitious Wu troops, with high morale, rushed towards Chaisang City, a few miles away.

……

As the sun approached dusk, the clouds gradually changed, and the originally clear sky gradually became cloudy.

The land within a radius of dozens of miles was shrouded in murderous aura, and even the birds and finches felt the killing intent and did not dare to land.

Outside the east of Chaisang City, 10,000 Wei army iron horsemen, standing with their backs to the city, staring at the front with cold eyes like iron.

Between heaven and earth, there was silence, except for the sound of the surging river, only the breathing of the soldiers remained.

10,000 soldiers, silent, quiet as if alone.

In the Central Military Department, under the banner of the "Wei" character king who hunted and flew on the other side, the pottery merchant was dressed in Xuan armor, holding a war knife, his eyes were as calm as a mountain, and he shot in the northeast direction.

At the end of the eagle's eye, he saw the wild dust rushing into the sky, and saw a thick black line slowly rising from the other end of the horizon.

Wu Jun is approaching!

The potter squinted at the blood-stained sword in his hand, tightened his armor, and his eagle eyes were dark, and his eyes were murderous.

At the end of the field of vision, I saw that the black line was getting thicker and thicker, and the strong murderous aura was blowing in the face with the river breeze.

Buzz Buzz -

The ground under his feet began to tremble slightly, and the sound of footsteps stepping on the ground in his ears became louder and louder.

Suddenly, Wu Jun's vast image crashed into his eyes.

Directly ahead, the 40,000 Wu army was mighty, like an iron wall, pushing flat, stretching for several miles, and in a blink of an eye, it filled the field of vision in front of it.

"The momentum of the Wu people is very strong......" The potter sighed, but his face sank like water, and there was no trace of fear in his eyebrows.

The king of Great Wei is fearless, and the iron cavalry soldiers of the Wei army who fought bloody battles around him are as fearless as him, and their faces are still as resolute as iron.

Dominating the world and winning a hundred battles, they have long ignored any enemy, not even the fierce Hulu in the north, let alone the army of Jiangnan.

In the face of the approaching Wu army, the fighting spirit of the Wei knights was even stronger, and the strong fighting spirit was like an undercurrent in the deep sea, more dangerous than the rough waves on the surface.

The tremor of the earth subsided, and the 40,000 Wu troops stopped advancing and lined up outside Lixu, forming a confrontation.

"Sure enough, there is a cavalry, it seems that over the years, Liu Bei has given Sun Ce a lot of blood......" The pottery merchant swept his eyes, and sure enough, he saw the direction of the left formation of the Wu army and saw a cavalry of thousands of people.

The potters had received information in advance, and over the years, Sun Ce had received a large number of war horses from Liu Bei, and had organized a cavalry of no small scale.

He guessed that the reason why Sun Ce dared to come ashore to fight him was because he had this cavalry.

When I saw it today, it was indeed so.

Glancing at the enemy formation, the potter had an idea in his heart, his eyes suddenly froze, and he suddenly shouted: "Where is Fan Xu!" ”

Fan Hao arched his hand and said in a rough voice: "Old Fan is here." ”

The potter pointed at his sword and shouted: "This king ordered me to command two thousand light cavalry and go around to the rear of the enemy, so that I don't have to attack hard and disrupt the enemy's formation." ”

"Okay, Lao Fan is going." Fan Xu, who had been about to move for a long time, carried a pig-killing knife and galloped away.

The potter's eyes swept away from the generals again, and shouted: "Where is Meng Tian!" ”

"The end will be here." Meng Tian, who had already been burning with blood, responded with emotion and pulled his horse out of the ranks

The potter's war knife pointed again, and shouted: "This king has ordered you to lead a thousand iron-armored heavy cavalry to attack the enemy formation from the middle road, only allow to advance, not retreat!" ”

"The last will obey." Meng Tian responded angrily and pulled the horse to carry the knife and left.

"Xiang Yu, Hou Yi listen to orders." The potter drank again.

"The end will be." The two generals responded in unison.

The potter ordered the horizontal sword: "This king ordered your two generals to command the rest of the iron cavalry, but when he saw that the enemy formation was broken, he immediately pressed the whole army and leveled the enemy army in one fell swoop." ”

"The last will obey." The two generals responded in unison.

In this battle, the potters have mobilized all the elites at their disposal, including the heavy armored iron cavalry and light cavalry, and all 10,000 iron cavalry have been dispatched.

When the order was passed, more than a dozen cowhide drums rumbled, the horn of the attack suddenly sounded, the flag waved, the generals ran back and forth, and the soldiers and horses moved in response to the order.

In the dusty sky, Fan Xujun had already taken the first step and galloped around the rear of the Wu army like the wind.

Meng Tian, who was wearing heavy armor, roared into the sky, and the longitudinal horse knife flew out, and a thousand heavily armored iron horsemen roared, like a torrent bursting the embankment, crashing towards the Wu army camp.

A mile away, the Wu army array.

At this time, Sun Ce's eyes were still proud, and he was coldly looking at the Wei army's iron cavalry arrayed behind the city.

At a glance, Sun Ce was sure that all the potters' armies were already here.

Sun Ce's little vigilance was relaxed, and the potter did not lay down any surprise soldiers, so that he could use his overwhelming numerical superiority without scruples to bulldoze the enemy who made him gnash his teeth.

Behind him, Zhou Tai, Chen Wu, Xu Sheng and other generals were all in high spirits, and their fighting spirit was high, and they wished they could kill the enemy and make meritorious contributions.

There is also Huang Zhong, the general of the Chu State who has a white beard, and at this moment, he is also slashing immediately, with a murderous revenge on his face.

Today, he wants to avenge the ****!

In Sun Ce's heart, he was secretly thinking about which one of the men he should send to the vanguard to destroy the potter's military formation.

At this time, the direction of the Wei Formation had already changed color first.

"King, the enemy has moved first." Chen Wu, the personal military general beside him, reminded him anxiously.

Sun Ce's expression moved, he raised his eyes, and sure enough, in his field of vision, the banners of the Wei army were flying, and a cavalry came out from the left flank and went around to the south, obviously planning to copy his own army.

Almost at the same time, in the center, more than 1,000 heavy armored cavalry of the Wei army, rolling up the dust in the air, rushed towards the middle of the army like a tide, and a big banner with the word "Meng" flew proudly and moved forward.

The potters actually wanted to attack with cavalry and break through the indestructible infantry and cavalry formation of the Wu army in one fell swoop.

"Pottery thief, you are so arrogant, you dare to make the first move......"

A trace of surprise flashed in Sun Ce's eyes, obviously he didn't expect that the pottery merchant would dare to fight against the city when he was inferior in strength, and when he was about to fight, he would dare to attack first.

Immediately, Sun Ce suppressed a moment of surprise, and a disdainful sneer appeared on his face, in his eyes, the potter's so-called preemptive strike was just a dying struggle, and he was killing himself!
