Chapter 1296: Jiangdong Iron Bone
"Take that stone artillery position! Rush up! "After the first round of arrow rain, the command system of the Jiangdong Army was not broken. And Zhou Yu is even more poisonous, charging among the guards, while commanding the overall situation.
The Jiangdong soldiers are also capable, and although they came at a gallop, they still have a unified command and use the treacherous and sheltered terrain to carry out a strong counterattack.
"There are archers in the forest, kill them!"
"Kill the enemy with two wings, and rush over in the center!"
"Kill!"
"Fight!"
All kinds of shouts echoed in the valley, and the morale of Zhou Yu's pro-command subordinates simply shocked Ma Chao, and he even braved the rain of arrows to launch a fierce counterattack.
It is no wonder that Jiangdong, whose economy had not been developed at that time, was able to stand on its laurels during the Three Kingdoms period, and I am afraid that it relied on the indomitable and tenacious backbone of the children of Jiangdong!
"Concentrate the crossbow on your waist, aim at Zhou Yu for me, shoot!" Ma Chao ordered, he understood that as long as Zhou Yu did not die, the military spirit of this army was there, and they who had lost the excellent sniping conditions wanted to swallow this Jiangdong army unscathed, and it would definitely take a lot of effort!
Tai Shici on the side was silent, and the bow and arrow in his hand had already been pinched by him to squeak. The cold hard eyes stared at Zhou Yu at the bottom of the mountain without blinking...... He's waiting, waiting for the Waist Crossbow to create a good opportunity for him, and he will be able to kill one stone!
The next moment, ten waist crossbows were like dragons out of the water, rushing towards the bottom of the mountain.
This time, Zhou Yu's area was taken care of, and countless guards watched the crossbow roaring from their waists, and they didn't even have time to raise their knives to block, they were directly penetrated through their bodies, and even the robes behind them were shot away. Some of them were lucky enough to swing a sword, but the powerful crossbow arrow only deviated slightly, and instead broke their right arm. Then, the companion next to him screamed and screamed, and he didn't bat an eye.
Zhou Yu was mixed in the guards, and his white clothes and white armor were the most conspicuous. One of the crossbow bolts was fired at him impartially. He quickly rubbed himself and jumped to dodge the bolt. Unexpectedly, before his body hit the ground, another arrow flew towards his foothold like a meteor!
This is Tai Shici's prediction, he has been waiting for this opportunity for too long!
But before Zhou Yu's catastrophe came, he suddenly seemed to stimulate his potential, and the long sword in his hand was suddenly inserted, and the sword sank into the soft swamp. His figure was also stunned, and Tai Shici's arrow flew quickly, hitting Zhou Yu's head and shooting his clouded leopard helmet to the ground! But because Zhou Yu forcibly stopped, he avoided the doom of an arrow piercing his brain, but he forgot that there was a waist crossbow behind him, and his right foot hurt fiercely, and the waist crossbow had grazed off a piece of his flesh and gone!
"Ahh Zhou Yu let out a cry of pain, and rolled to the ground with his right leg in pain.
Seeing this, the guards beside him roared and rushed towards Zhou Yu's position as if they were in pain. Use their blood and flesh to form a strong barrier, let the waist lead the crossbow through the chest again, and die without taking a step back! Even, there are some Jiangdong disciples who use spears against their bodies, allowing their entire bodies to be shot into hedgehogs, but they refuse to fall!
Such a scene also moved Ma Chao, he really couldn't imagine that the Central Plains was superior to Jiangdong in terms of combat power, technology, military formation, economy and other places. But when the arrogance and enthusiasm of the children of the East are not inferior! is so iron-clad, it is not an illusion to want to hold up a piece of the sky in the troubled times!
However, the more jealous he was, the more Ma Chao couldn't let Zhou Yu live, he looked at that place and began to shout for the first time: "Stone Artillery Array, smash me, smash hard!" ”
"Strategist, hurry up and ride your war horse! Even if we die in battle, we will protect you and rush out! A personal guard pulled Zhou Yu's war horse forward and helped Zhou Yu onto the war horse. Then he stabbed the back buttocks of the war horse, and the war horse rushed towards Jiang Xiabing like crazy!
And ahead, the fight between the Jiangdong Army and the Jiangxia Army has been inseparable. However, the battle situation was almost one-sided, although the number of Jiangxia soldiers was far superior to that of the Jiangdong soldiers who rushed over, but they were afraid of the accidental injury of the Ma Jiajun, so they cowered one by one, and were killed by the Jiangdong army and retreated again and again. What's even more hateful is that some of the soldiers in the rear have fallen into the swamp that has not yet been paved with reeds and artemisia, and those soldiers in front still don't know it, and they are still desperately defeated!
After Zhou Yu got on his horse and charged, his guards didn't have any thoughts one by one, let alone the rain of arrows and swamps. As long as there is a life that can get on the horse, they will all move forward and charge with Zhou Yu. In the blink of an eye, Zhou Yu rushed into the battle formation of the two armies. Here, in order to avoid accidental injury, Ma Chao has very little pressure on the crossbow arrow. Only Tai Shi Ci shot an arrow after an arrow, and the arrow did not leave Zhou Yu. But every time, he was intercepted by the guards who flew to pounce with his body!
"Those who get Zhou Yu's head will be rewarded with a thousand gold, and ten thousand households will be sealed!!" Ma Chao was also anxious, seeing that Zhou Yu had rushed to the heart of Jiangxia's army, and was about to rush into the battlefield, he couldn't care about anything!
But miscellaneous soldiers are miscellaneous soldiers, no matter how Ma Chao shouted, those Jiangxia troops were still afraid of the Jiangdong army's crazy counterattack. Ma Chao could only watch as Zhou Yu gradually broke through the battle formation and escaped from the range of their bows and crossbows. In the end, although the war horse fell into the swamp, Zhou Yu still jumped off the war horse and limped away from Ma Chao's sight!
Seeing Zhou Yu leave safely, Jiang Dongjun let out an exclamation, as if he had won a big victory.
"Kill! The military advisor is out of trouble, let's give these bitches some awesome looks! ”
"Hurry up, there is an ambush ahead, let's retreat!"
"Rush forward! Kill all the crossbowmen who dare not see anyone! ”
"Rush! Rush through the valley to protect the military division! ”
As soon as Zhou Yu left, the command system of the Jiangdong Army was in chaos, lost unified coordination, and became disorganized. However, it can be seen that their morale is still very high.
Annihilation in sight!
But Ma Chao was not happy, on the contrary, he became even more gloomy. He now believes that even if he kills all the people here, as long as Sun Ce and Zhou Yu don't die and escape back to Jiangdong, they will be able to make a comeback in less than two years!
The victorious and defeated soldiers are unexpected, and they are men who are ashamed and ashamed. There are many talented people in Jiangdong, and their comeback is unknown!
Thinking of the Tang Dynasty poet Du Mu's poem "Wujiang Pavilion", Ma Chao felt as if his heart was blocked by a boulder, and he was depressed: Sun Ce was no less than Xiang Yu, and with Zhou Yu here, Jiangdong was both civil and military. In this big defeat, although they lost on one level, on another level, they will be stronger!
At this moment, the power of the arrow rain shrouded the heads of those Jiangdong troops again, and the Jiangxia army was also a monkey spirit ruffian. also picked up the ruffian and fought with them. On the entire battlefield, the tragic cry of the Jiangdong Army resounded in the ears.
Ma Chao was not in much of a mood to watch this kind of massacre, although he was numb, but for him today, it was still touching. He just stared closely at the west, where Liu Bei was fighting a decisive battle with the Jiangdong army.
The movement in Huarong Dao is getting smaller and smaller, and none of the 20,000 Jiangdong troops has opened their mouths to surrender in such a battle.
The sun began to move westward, and the 20,000 Jiangdong elites, except for a few who escaped, the rest had been wiped out. Ma Chao personally wiped out one of the strongest combat forces under Jiangdong, in exchange for Jiangdong's outright hatred.
However, he was not afraid at all, but faintly looked forward to it.
Of course, before that, he wants to completely calm Jingzhou first. And this opportunity for peace is today!
"Someone, pick up Zhou Yu's helmet and send it to Liu Bei quickly!" Ma Chao ordered loudly, and he was completely a cold and excellent commander regardless of his emotions: "The other soldiers will rest and recuperate with a stick of incense, and then follow me to attack the Jiangdong camp!" ”
"This time, we are going to completely drive the Jiangdong Army back to Jiangdong!"
Ma Chao said these words angrily, but then looked at the scene of the mountain of corpses and the sea of blood in front of him, especially when he saw the body of Zhou Yu's children who stood upright with a spear just now. A thought flashed in his heart for a while, and he spoke: "Gather those people for a good life and bury them, they are real soldiers, and they should die with glory, and they shouldn't be so violent and wilderness......"
