Chapter 210: The Disappeared Jiangdong Army

The Jiangdong army made a move, and Lu Bu immediately judged that Zhou Yu planned to lead the army into the mountains to start a long-term confrontation with him.

The vicinity of Shouchun is full of rolling hills.

The hill is not high but undulating, and the army lurks in it, and it is not easy to find them out.

Lu Bu ordered: "Zilong led the army to raid the rear of the enemy, and Shu Zhi ordered the Red Flame Army to sweep away and scatter the enemy army." ”

Zhao Yun and Chen received the military order.

The Red Flame Army stood in the main formation under the leadership of Chen Zhi, while Zhao Yun led the troops and horses to rush towards the Jiangdong Army under Ling Cao's headquarters.

led the soldiers to kill the Jiangdong army, and Zhao Yun rushed to the front with a spear.

Ling Cao, who was ordered to take over Zhou Tai's department, saw Zhao Yun rushing over and killed his heart.

The soldiers of the Jiangdong Army lined up behind him let out a shout and rushed towards Zhao Yun.

When it comes to bravery, Lu Bu is indeed incomparable.

However, Zhao Yun was not something that Ling Cao could deal with.

The two of them made a mistake, Zhao Yun's spear thrust forward, Ling Cao hurriedly blocked, but he kicked him on the waist and fell off the horse.

Ling Cao fell off his horse, and Jiang Dongjun, who was following behind, hurriedly stepped forward to snatch him away.

Zhao Yun rushed into the Jiangdong army formation with a spear.

Spears flew, and the Jiangdong troops in front of him were knocked to the ground one by one.

In just an instant, Zhao Yun made a way out of the Jiangdong Army.

The soldiers who followed him in the charge shouted and crashed into the Jiangdong Army.

Zhou Tai was captured by Lu Bu, which had already brought a great damper to the morale of the officers and men of the Jiangdong Army.

If Ling Cao can stabilize the front, he may be able to recover some of the lost morale.

But it was Zhao Yun who he met.

The two of them were just a wrong horse, Ling Cao was left off the horse by Zhao Yun, although he didn't have to worry about his life, he was powerless to fight back.

Zhou Yu sent Ling Cao to the rear, thinking that he would be able to resist for a moment, but as soon as the two sides fought, Zhao Yun left him behind.

At first, the Jiangdong army still mustered up the courage to come forward to resist, but under the onslaught of Zhao Yun and the soldiers led by him, they soon lost the will to fight.

The Jiangdong Army in front was still fighting with Lu Bu's army, and the one in the back had already begun to retreat.

Lu Bu's capture of Zhou Tai has greatly boosted morale.

Zhao Yun knocked down Ling Cao with a wrong horse, which was more like a shot in the arm for the soldiers.

In the face of the fierce attack of Lu Bu's army, how could the Jiangdong army still be able to parry?

Eventually, someone in the back began to flee.

The soldiers who were defending against the enemy found that their companions had retreated despite them, and the remaining will to fight collapsed in an instant.

The Jiangdong army began to break and flee, and Zhao Yun led the army to cover up and kill behind.

Along the way, there were Jiangdong troops who had been cut to the ground.

Zhao Yun scattered the enemy's rear formation, and Lu Bu drew a halberd and pointed in front of him: "Soldiers, kill with me!" Those who capture Zhou Yu will be rewarded with ten beauties! Plus three ranks! ”

Adding officials to the knighthood and gentle beauties have always been the deepest temptations.

Lu Bu's shouting fell, and countless soldiers poured out like a tide.

The retreat of the Jiangdong Army was not as smooth as Zhou Yu imagined.

Zhao Yun broke up their rear formation, and then Lu Bu, who had come up, rushed directly into the main formation.

Retreating into the mountains and forests, Zhou Yu asked people to count the number of people.

The two sides only fought an encounter, and the original army of 15,000 people was actually left with only two or three thousand people.

The Jiangdong Army, which retreated into the mountains and forests with him, all looked depressed, and had no faith in fighting at all.

Looking around at the officers and soldiers of the Jiangdong Army, Zhou Yu's face was also very bad.

He asked the guards on the side, "What happened to General Ling?" ”

The guard replied, "I wasn't mortally wounded, I just fell hard." Two broken ribs and a few days of recuperation. ”

Zhou Yu was speechless, and waved his hand to signal the guards to retreat.

Looking back on the entire battle, he suddenly understood that Lu Bu did not adopt any strategy at all, and just defeated them with martial arts alone.

The gap between the two sides is not in deployment and strategy, but in the fact that the Jiangdong Army is not able to compete with Lu Bu's fierce generals at all.

Zhou Tai was barely able to fight with Lu Bu, but he would be defeated sooner or later in the long run.

Regardless of whether Zhou Yu was singing gold or not at that time, the result of Zhou Tai's capture was irreversible.

It was only at this time that Zhou Yu reacted, from the very beginning, Lu Bu's purpose was not him, but Zhou Tai, the number one fierce general beside him.

After capturing Zhou Tai, the morale of the Jiangdong Army will surely plummet.

The success or failure of this battle is all on Zhou Tai alone.

After defeating Zhou Yu's Jiangdong Army, LΓΌ Bu did not return to Shouchun.

He ordered scouts to be sent to investigate the movements of Zhou Yu, who had fled into the mountains and forests, ready for the next fight.

Standing outside the barracks, Lu Bu looked at the mountains and forests in the distance.

Zhao Yun walked over: "Wen Hou, what to do with so many prisoners?" ”

"Send it to Shouchun and hand it over to Wenyuan to take care of." LΓΌ Bu said: "Before, we didn't leave us alive because we couldn't march with our captives. Now that Shouchun is so close, there is no need to kill the captives. The Central Plains has been fighting for many years, and the population has plummeted too much. When the Central Plains is weak, the alien race will rise. There are too many people, and sooner or later it is we who will harm ourselves. ”

"I see." Zhao Yun responded, and then asked, "What about Zhou Tai?" ”

"Send it to Shouchun too." Lu Bu said: "Let Shuzhi lead the Red Flame Army to escort him personally, Zhou Yu still has two or three thousand men and horses, if he can rescue Zhou Tai, the battle behind him will not be easy to fight." ”

"I'll go tell Uncle Zhi." Zhao Yun was ordered to leave.

Lu Bu stuck his waist and continued to look at Bagong Mountain in the distance.

The Bagong Mountains are endless, and Zhou Yu has fled into the mountains, and even if he sends so many scouts, he may not be able to find him.

Jiangdong Zhoulang finally came to Huainan, if he ran away, it would be a pity!

Zhou Yu hid in the mountains and did not hear any news for two or three days in a row.

Chen Zhi led the Red Flame Army to escort Zhou Tai and the Jiangdong Army prisoners to Shouchun, but they were not intercepted.

There are quite a few Red Flame Army, and they are also the elite selected by Chen Zhi.

Although he suffered a big defeat, Zhou Yu is not an ordinary general after all.

Chen arrived to escort the captives to Shouchun, the movement was not too small, and he must have sent scouts to find out the situation.

If it were someone else, he might choose to intercept and kill Chen Zhi at this time to snatch back Zhou Tai.

After all, recapturing Zhou Tai, the morale lost by the soldiers will be somewhat restored.

But Zhou Yu didn't do that.

It is impossible for a general like him not to see the gap between the Red Flame Army and the remnants of his defeated army.

With only two or three thousand people, it is simply wishful thinking to recapture prisoners of war from the Red Flame Army, which is even more numerous than them!

Zhou Yu didn't make any moves, but Lu Bu couldn't sit still.

The Bagong Mountains are stretched, and the scouts have not brought back any useful information so far, and the Jiangdong Army hiding in the mountains and forests seems to have disappeared out of thin air.

The longer the Jiangdong Army disappeared, the slimmer the hope of capturing Zhou Yu became.
