Chapter 525: Slapping Cheng Pu in the face

The flag of the king of the word "Wei" was raised, and countless Great Wei iron horses, like a tide, stepped across the suspension bridge, and poured into the Chaisang from the open city gate. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 ο½‰ο½Žο½†ο½

Xiang Yu took the lead, and the overlord golden gun in his hand opened and closed, dancing out of the golden light in the air, shooting out in all directions, ruthlessly piercing the terrified enemy pawn.

The surging cavalry swarmed along the main road in the city, and the iron hooves passed, and the long bloody road quickly extended out from the city gate.

Chaisang City, an important town in the western part of Wu State, was ravaged by the Great Wei Iron Cavalry.

When the Wei army rushed into the south gate, Lu Su, who stayed behind, was still in the water camp outside the north gate, inspecting military affairs.

Just yesterday, upstream Cheng Pu sent back a message, insisting that he was going to fight to the death with the pottery merchant's army, and Lu Su had no choice but to arrange for a steady stream of grain and grass to be transported upstream to make Cheng Pu's logistics.

Another boatload of grain and grass was sent away before nightfall, and Lu Su also breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the grain boat leave the water camp.

Just as he turned around and returned to Chaisang, he saw a scout galloping towards him.

"Chaisang is in danger, Chaisang is in danger, the Wei cavalry has entered Chaisang City!" Before the scout could reach the goal, he cried out in terror.

Lu Su was taken aback, his body shook violently, and he thought that he had heard it wrong, and hurriedly shouted: "What Wei cavalry?" How could the Wei cavalry kill Chaisang? ”

The scout rushed to the scene and shouted breathlessly: "General Yulu, the cavalry of the Wei army suddenly came out from the south, and the defenders of my south gate were taken by surprise, and the enemy army has captured the city gate and entered Chaisan City!" ”

"South? Isn't the army of potters all in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River, how could it inexplicably appear in the south of Chaisang? Lu Su blurted out exclaimed, and for a while, he fell into a dazed and sleepy situation.

After a moment of panic, Lu Su's heart suddenly shook violently, and an astonishing guess suddenly flashed in his mind:

Could it be that the cavalry of the potters actually took the land, water, and mountain roads to raid my Chaisang?

Suddenly, all kinds of suspicious clues came to mind, and the more Lu Su thought about it, the more he realized that this was the case.

At this time, he suddenly realized that the potter came to attack Chaisang with a mere 5,000 water army, and the fundamental purpose was to induce Cheng Pu to lead the main force to meet the battle, so as to cause the emptiness of Chaisang City.

At the same time as the navy attacked, the potters had secretly sent a light cavalry to bypass their river defense line from the southern mountains from the mountains to the south.

"The pottery thief, it is so deceitful, I should have expected it, he is not so simple, hateful ......" suddenly realized, Lu Su was shocked and anxious, and he couldn't describe the shock to the potter.

Awakened, Lu Su hurriedly went ashore and planned to lead the soldiers of the water battalion to rescue Chaisang.

It's just that when I looked up, I was shocked to find that the banner of the word "Wei" had been raised at the head of the North Gate.

The north gate was also broken by the Wei army!

This means that the entire Chaisang City has been attacked by the Wei army and has fallen!

"Hateful, how can it be ......like this" Lu Su gritted his teeth secretly, his face was distorted with horror, and he only felt a tingling pain in his heart, and for a moment he had the illusion that he was about to suffocate.

After a while, he took a few deep breaths, barely suppressed his horror, and continued to lead hundreds of soldiers and horses by the river, turning to the north gate of Chaisang, trying to hold on to the last hope, wanting to recapture the city.

When Lu Su rode his horse to the north gate of Chaisang, he was desperate to find that the head of the city was already full of banners of the Wei army, and this seemingly impregnable town was easily occupied by the enemy.

At the same time, the north gate was opened, and thousands of Wei army iron horsemen surged to kill, going straight to the direction where he was, obviously to capture it together with the water camp.

Lu Su immediately panicked.

With the hundreds of sailors under his command, how can he withstand the impact of such a raging iron cavalry as the Wei army, and barely fight, not only will Chaisang City fall, but even he will die here.

"The general trend has gone, let's keep my useful body first......" Lu Su sighed and shook his head helplessly.

In the face of the surging Wei army, he could only grit his teeth, turn his horse around, run all the way back to Shuizhai, take hundreds of remnants of soldiers, board the battleship in a panic, and sail away from the shore in a hurry.

Just as Lu Su and his soldiers and horses had just boarded the ship and withdrew, the iron cavalry division led by Xiang Yu swept wildly, and the iron hooves reached the waterfront, no one could stop them, and the soldiers who had not had time to board the ship were killed like ants.

In less than a quarter of an hour, the well-built water village, together with the city of Chaisang, was captured by the Wei army.

On the shore, the victorious Wei knights, wielding swords and guns, laughed and scolded at the Wu army who fled to the river, showing off their might, and the laughter and scolding overshadowed the sound of the surging water.

On the ship, the Wu soldiers were all terrified, facing the Wei army's bravado, but they could only bear it silently, sighing one by one.

Looking at the mighty Wei army, Lu Su shook his head and sighed bitterly: "I said earlier, the pottery thief is not that simple, Cheng Pu, Cheng Pu, you don't listen to my advice, and now you have lost the town of Chaisang, I think you can afford this crime......"

In desperation, Lu Su could only order the remnants to flee downstream, and at the same time sent someone upstream to inform Cheng Pu, telling him to immediately lead the army to retreat eastward.

……

The next day, west of Chaisang, a water battle was about to break out again.

The first morning light of dawn pierced the river fog, rolling on the Yangtze River, and two cloud sails and huge waves approached relatively close again.

The Wu naval army commanded by Cheng Pu is approaching from the downstream from the downstream, and at this tour, the Wei army is also fearless, and Ma Yuan is leading the Wei naval army to meet the battle downstream.

After a day, the two armies fought again.

On the north shore, the potters walked on the rugged shore on horseback, followed by hundreds of brocade-clothed dragon guards led by Jing Ke.

The terrain on both sides of the Yangtze River in this section is difficult, not to mention cavalry, and even infantry is not conducive to deployment, so the potters cannot use infantry to capture the enemy's water camp like the previous battle of Hanjin.

The army could not be launched, and the potters could only walk along the coast to watch the upcoming naval battle.

In a battle yesterday, the Wei army lost nearly 1,000 sailors and forty or fifty warships.

On the other hand, the Wu army, although the losses were comparable to those of the Wei army, because Wu had many ships, they were quickly replenished, and the gap between the two warships widened again.

"Today's battle is the real vicious battle, Ma Yuan, it depends on your performance......" The potter looked at the battleship of his own army on the water, with only expectation in his eyes, but there was no trace of doubt.

The sun has risen in the east, and the river is unobstructed.

I saw that in the east direction, the horn had already sounded, and the ships of the Wu people had already set up their sails, which was the prelude to the imminent attack.

And on the flagship of the huge building ship, Cheng Pu was standing with his sword, and his old face was full of pride.

He raised his eyes and swept around, looking around at the huge warships on the left and right, and there was a trace of pride in his heart, and he sneered in his mouth: "Ma Yuan, even if you have some ability, my Dawu has a boat, let's compare whose family background is thicker, fight to the end, the old man will kill you just by fighting the boat." ”

Cheng Pu despised the Wei fleet, only to see the Wei fleet in his field of vision, there were only a handful of fighting ships, and the rest were all small ships, such a "poor and sour" appearance, which made the arrogance and disdain in Cheng Pu's eyes even stronger.

Proudly, the two armies were no more than two miles apart and entered the area of engagement.

The time has come, Cheng Pu waved the war knife in his hand without hesitation, and shouted: "The whole army is ready to attack, today the old man must annihilate the enemy army and kill me!" ”

The long horn sounded, and the ships were ready to go, and when the flagship gave the order, they were about to rush forward at full speed and tear the enemy fleet to pieces.

"Old General Cheng, something is wrong, the beacon fire of the police on the Chaisang side has been lit!" At the critical moment, Deputy General Dong Xi shouted in horror.

Cheng Pu was taken aback, and looked back in a hurry, and sure enough, he saw the direction of Chaisang, the beacon smoke rose into the sky, and the three beacon fires were clearly the alarm of the crisis

"How could Chaisang City suddenly set off a beacon fire, could it be that it was lit by mistake?" Cheng Pu looked suspicious, with a questioning face, obviously unwilling to believe that something would happen in Chaisang City.

Just when he was suspicious, he saw a boat galloping towards him, and hurriedly approached the flagship of the ship.

After a while, a soldier with a panicked expression climbed onto the deck and cried out: "Old General Cheng, something is wrong, the Wei cavalry has attacked Chaisang from the Lukou path, the city has been lost, General Lu asks the old general to retreat the whole army downstream!" ”

Boom Boom

From Cheng Pu to Dong Xi, everyone who heard the news was stunned in an instant.

This astonishing bad news, like a thunderbolt, instantly stunned everyone present.

Just now, they were full of confidence, vainly trying to defeat the Wei army's sailors and destroy Ma Yuan's thief who pretended to be ancients, but who wanted to, just at the moment of the battle, they suddenly heard that the base camp of Chaisang's lair had fallen.

This incredible and shocking news instantly extinguished the high morale of the Wu army, and replaced it with endless horror.

"Chaisang...... Chaisang actually ......"

Cheng Pu only felt dizzy, difficult to breathe, couldn't lift up in one breath, his body shook for a while, and he was almost about to stand unsteadily, Dong Xi hurriedly rushed forward to barely hold him up.

Cheng Pu, who was dizzy, took a big gulp of cold air, and barely calmed down the agitated qi and blood, but the arrogance on his face had disappeared, and it was replaced by unprecedented anger.

Then, his chest was furious with shame and anger, and he gritted his teeth and scolded: "Potter dog thief, you are so deceitful, the old man has fallen for your tricks again, hateful, hatefulβ€”"

Cheng Pu gritted his teeth, but Dong Xi hurriedly persuaded: "Old general, our Chaisang base camp has been lost, and if we continue to fight, we will fall into the predicament of attacking from front to back. ”
