Chapter 1295: Insufficient Success, More Than Failure
"Is General Huang willing to surrender?" Ma Chao didn't have much nonsense, the military situation was urgent, and he had already received a battle report from Liu Bei on the front line. The Jiangdong army seemed to be attacking in a big way, but its combat strength was weak, and after Liu Bei held out for an hour, he had already begun to organize a counteroffensive.
In such a situation, Ma Chao immediately judged that Zhou Yu used some civilian miscellaneous soldiers to act as the elite of Jiangdong to attract Liu Bei's attention. And when he said why he was ambushed here today, Ma Chao suddenly had an indescribable emotion floating through his heart: After waiting for five days, Huang Zu, you have finally appeared on this dog day!
Yes, as a celebrity, it is impossible for Ma Chao not to know the dangerous place of Huarong Road, which is famous for its history, and he also knows that with Zhou Yu's talent, he will definitely make an article here in Huarong Road. Therefore, it seems that Liu Bei's army has been fighting for several days, but the Ma family's army has long been ambushed here. With the addition of Liu Bei's battle report, Ma Chao immediately judged that Huang Zu's strange army was just a bait cast by Zhou Yu. Behind him, there must be the elite led by Zhou Yu as the yellow sparrow.
Therefore, this time, after Ma Chao's nonsense opening remarks, he directly asked this very sharp question. Although he didn't know how Huang Zu had been squeezed out in the Jiangdong Army, he knew that the subplot of fighting generals he directed these days would definitely make the two families more divided. Coupled with the succession of good news from Ganning Jiangxia, and the situation that Huang Zu's army was regarded as an outcast at this moment. Ma Chao believes that as long as Huang Zu still has a little temper, he doesn't want to work in Jiangdong anymore.
And the result also wanted to conform to Ma Chao's conjecture, when these words were asked, Huang Zu's face only changed slightly, he did not hesitate, let alone be angry, but flashed a trace of joy, and immediately knelt down and asked to surrender: "The last general is willing to return to King Yong, and from now on he will go to the soup and go to the fire, and he will not give up!" ”
Huang Zu is not stupid, the current situation is obvious, I don't know what the fate of surrender is, but it is by no means worse than in the Jiangdong Army. If he didn't surrender, he could only let Ma Jiajun shoot tens of thousands of arrows and turn into a hedgehog. Therefore, the surrender of the two was extremely simple, and even some of the persuasions that Ma Chao had already prepared were exempted.
"That being the case, General Huang quickly paved the way. Next, the general needs a small favor. Ma Chao smiled weirdly, and didn't tell Huang Zu what would happen next, just waved his hand, and more than 17,000 Nanyang elites disappeared in the dense forests of the valley again, as if they had never appeared.
Huang Zu even felt that he had been like Nan Ke in a dream before, and even rubbed his eyes. But it wasn't until he heard his unlucky son's already powerless moans that he suddenly reacted and shouted loudly to the soldiers around him: "What are you still doing in a daze? I didn't hear King Yong's orders, and continued to pave the grass crossing road! ”
These soldiers were lucky enough to save their lives. I thought that King Yong was personally monitoring on the mountain, and I didn't dare to cheat and play tricks at the moment, so I worked extremely hard one by one, for fear that one would accidentally anger the Ma Jiajun on the mountain, and shoot an arrow to make them a typical example.
However, just when the artemisia grass was paved less than two miles, Huang Zu heard a wave of footsteps behind him. Looking back, I saw that Zhou Yu in white clothes and white armor led the Jiangdong army to come, this time the Jiangdong army did not remove the mourning clothes, but hurried with the banner of 'swearing the shame of Jiangdong'. When Huang Zu saw the white flag, he had a very bad premonition in his heart. Especially when the 20,000 troops came like snow-capped mountains, the feeling in his heart became stronger and stronger.
There is only one hatred between Jingzhou and Jiangdong, that is, the part where Huang Zu shot Sun Jian back then. This time, Zhou Yu asked his subordinates to wear mourning clothes and swear flags, which can be said to have boosted morale and intimidated Xiangyang. But after all, Huang Zu was the murderer of Sun Jian, and it was impossible to say that it was not taboo about this matter.
"Strategist, what are you? ......" Huang Zu saw Zhou Yu's stern face, after all, his heart was weak, and he was a little unfavorable to speak for a while.
But Zhou Yu talked and laughed as before, but he was still afraid that Huang Zu would be too careful, so he opened his mouth to explain: "Surprise attack on Xiangyang, such a great cause, how can I miss it." This feint attack on the front line has deceived Ma Chao, and I personally led my subordinates to participate in the grand event with the general! But before he could finish speaking, he could see that Huang Zu was unusually affectionate, especially Huang Zu's behavior of looking around at the valleys on both sides, which made Zhou Yu even more obsessed.
As soon as I looked up, I saw that this Huarong Daoqi Peak was a Jedi. If there is an ambush on the valley, throwing stones to cut off the road behind him, and Huang Zu rebels to stop the killing, then he will have no place to bury the army on this road!
"General Huang, be careful, there are ambushes!" Zhou Yu's face changed suddenly, and he stretched out his hand in shock and pointed at Huang Zu's back!
Huang Zu already knew that there was a Ma family army in the valley, but he still turned back in order to deceive Zhou Yu. It's just that there is a kind of 'successful scheme' treacherous smile on his face, however, before the smile on his face blooms, he heard a sword sound, and then a cold feeling instantly spread from the soft flesh of his neck to the limbs, and after suddenly turning his head, he saw Zhou Yu holding the bloody sword in his hand, smiling at himself!
"You, how do you know ......" Huang Zu covered his neck in disbelief, pointing at Zhou Yu and asking. But helplessly, vitality had poured out from his neck, and before the words fell, his majestic body fell heavily off the war horse!
"I never knew there would be ambushes here," Zhou Yu quickly turned around and ordered his subordinates to retreat quickly, and finally glanced at Huang Zu's corpse: "However, now I know!" ”
"Idiot!" Ma Chao on the valley scolded with a hammer fist, after coming to the Three Kingdoms, he really understood that he had seen a real third-rate general!
But the Huang family's family seemed to be about to challenge Ma Chao's limit, that is, after Huang Zu died, Huang Chong's guy saw that his father was killed by Zhou Yu's sword, and he yelled directly: "Tai Shici, you quickly release the arrow and shoot this bastard to death!" ”
Tai Shici, who didn't dare to let go because of the distance, was shouted by Huang Chong at this time, his heart was furious, and as soon as his fingers were loosened, the arrow immediately flew in the direction of Zhou Yu, completely exposing the existence of Ma Jiajun. Ma Chao saw that there was nothing to do, and it was impossible to wait for Zhou Yu to fall into the trap of perfection, so he suddenly appeared and ordered: "Push down the rolling stones and cut off the retreat of the Jiangdong Army." Jiang Xiabing listened to my orders and stopped the enemy! Ma Jiajun, ten thousand arrows at once! ”
With that, with a wave of his hand, the herald's arrows flew into the sky with a piercing whistle.
In an instant, the rumbling rolling stones immediately slid down the valley, with an irresistible acceleration, fierce and fierce. At the same time, the crossbow machines above the valley were launched in unison, intensively attacking the front army of the Jiangdong Army.
This time, Ma Chao made a bloody investment, and this time everyone in the ambush team not only had a Yuan Rong crossbow, but also equipped with a powerful crossbow machine, 3,000 strong bows, 1,000 Qing bows, 800 kick crossbows, 300 waist crossbows, and 20 stone cannons.
At the sound of an order, the tall oath flag behind Zhou Yu was broken in two by a flying stone, the flag sergeant's brain was cracked and fell under the horse, the ownerless war horse neighed and fled, and the Jiangdong Army under the banner was in chaos. The powerful crossbow arrows fired by the waist crossbow can pierce through two warhorses in succession in such a condescending close-range shot. Those shields made of only five centimeters of hardwood could not withstand such an attack at all, and the soldiers behind the shields did not have any sense of security.
With the power of the artillery and the waist crossbow, other crossbow machines and soldiers also launched, and countless crossbow arrows spread their wings like birds, drawing a graceful string shape in mid-air, and then lined up in a dense array, fiercely, indiscriminately covering it!
"Woo...... Instigate...... Instigate......! "The arrows were like locusts, endlessly, covering the Jiangdong army flying towards the slack one after another. He could even nail a soldier directly into the swamp, and many of the soldiers who were running stepped into the air and fell into the swamp, shouting conjoined until several crossbow arrows were drawn and shot into a sieve. Blood gushed and flowed, staining the entire Huarong Ancient Road.
However, after all, Zhou Yu's subordinates were all experienced elites, and after such a first round of dense arrow rain, they quickly reacted. And Zhou Yu recognized the situation in an instant, didn't even look back, and directly ordered: "Rush forward!" Only by defeating these Jiangxia troops can we have any hope of escaping! ”
Zhou Yu didn't have the charisma of Sun Ce, but his orders were still most effectively carried out in this army. After this military order, those Jiangdong children seemed to have lost their fear, and the death of their companions no longer made them afraid. They shouted, brandishing the blades in their hands, skillfully dodging one by one, and at the same time sprinting towards the Jiang Xia soldiers who were slow to react in front of them. The rest of the rear army immediately went up the hill and engaged in a fierce battle for position with the Ma Jiajun.
"This Zhou Yu is really not simple!" Ma Chao watched Zhou Yu kill Huang Zu first, and then escaped the first round of arrow rain with the help of the war horse, and then made the most correct judgment, frowned at the moment, turned back to Tai Shici and said: "Ziyi, you are sniping here, as long as Zhou Yu has a flaw, shoot him to death immediately!" ”
