Chapter 2168: Night Attack on Cao Jun (II)

Many Cao soldiers didn't even have time to put on their armor, they just ran out of the camp with their blades, and then they saw the cavalry that was rumbling and killing, panicking, spreading rapidly among the Cao army, this unexpected surprise attack, made the Cao army soldiers even more panicked.

Some of the soldiers who were still resting in the tent could be imagined after the tent caught fire.

This is the battlefield that belongs to the Jiangdong cavalry, they are the killing gods in the eyes of the Cao army, from time to time the Cao army falls under the iron hooves of the Jiangdong cavalry, under such a might, the resistance of the soldiers of the Cao army seems to be so fragile, and the panic will crush their courage on the battlefield.

The movement in the army woke up the sleeping Cao Cao, and without waiting to put on his armor, he walked out of the camp and asked, "What happened in the army?" ”

"Prime Minister Qi, the Jiangdong Army raided the camp, and the soldiers of our army can't stop it." The guard said in an eager tone.

"Jiangdong Army raid?" Cao Cao didn't react for a while, he was still immersed in the news that Zhou Yu was injured and was about to die, but he didn't expect the surprise attack of the Jiangdong Army to come at night, and after a little thought, Cao Cao understood the Jiangdong Army's strategy, gritted his teeth and said: "I don't want Zhou Yu'er to be so shameless, I ordered Cao Ren, Xiahoudun, and Cao Chun to lead the cavalry to step forward to block the enemy's attack, and the generals of each department restrained the soldiers under their command." ”

In such a camp, if the soldiers in the army are in a panicked mood, it will cause more casualties, these casualties may not come from the enemy, but their own soldiers trample on each other, Cao's army is numerous, once the complete chaos is over, it will cause a greater impact on the army, Cao Cao is not sure, the Jiangdong army is not doing his best to attack this time.

The night gave the cavalry of the Jiangdong Army a chance, and more than ninety percent of the soldiers in the Cao army were at night, it was difficult to see the surrounding things clearly, and in the face of the enemy's surprise attack, they could not see the situation in the army clearly, and the panic in their hearts would be intensified, and this situation was also true in other armies, if the enemy army succeeded in the dark night, it would bring great harm to the army.

The chaos in the Cao army continued, and the generals of each department tried their best to restrain the soldiers under their command after receiving the order, but under the rampage of the Jiangdong cavalry, the effect was not very good, just when the Cao army camp was in chaos, Cheng Pu led two thousand elites to kill into the Cao army camp.

For a while, the shouting of killing in Cao's camp shook the sky, and although it was ten miles away from Xiling, the defenders in the city still heard the movement.

For this raid, Zhou Yu has absolute confidence, in the middle of the night when the enemy army is in a state of chaos, his cavalry and heavy armor can inflict the greatest damage on the enemy, and the most important thing is what kind of effect this raid will bring.

The Cao army has 100,000 people, just with the surprise attack of 3,000 people, it is impossible to defeat the 100,000 Cao army, but there are elite cavalry in the Cao army, once the cavalry of the Cao army reacts to find the cavalry of Jiangdong, it will be more difficult to continue to kill the enemy on the battlefield.

Zhou Tai led the cavalry to set off a bloody storm among the Cao army, and wherever the cavalry passed, the Cao army's foot soldiers all avoided it.

"General, the enemy's thunderbolt is about a hundred paces to the left." A cavalryman rode up and shouted.

"Kill it!" Zhou Tai excitedly said that the mission of his trip was not only to raid, but also to burn the enemy's thunderbolts.

One by one, the torches were discarded on the thunderbolt, and soon a raging flame ignited where the thunderbolt was placed.

Cao Cao was furious when he learned about the situation of the Thunderbolt Car, although there were many craftsmen in the army who could build the Thunderbolt Car, once the Thundercar was damaged too much, it would affect the army to attack the city.

It was a night that made it difficult for the Cao army to calm down, and the Jiangdong army, which could not shrink in their eyes, showed extremely strong strength on the battlefield, which made the Cao army pay a heavy price.

It wasn't until the elite of the Cao army reacted from the panic to resist the attack of the Jiangdong army, Zhou Tai and Cheng Pu led the soldiers and horses back to Xiling, the Jiangdong army retreated, but the Cao army did not pursue.

When the sky was light, the chaos in Cao's army had stopped, but the camp was in a mess, many camp tents were still emitting wisps of green smoke, and the corpses of soldiers could be seen everywhere on the ground.

The tiger and leopard cavalry and heavy cavalry in the Cao army patrolled outside the camp, and the Cao army soldiers who returned from the battlefield of the three counties of Jingnan, after this defeat, the joy of victory diluted a lot, from this battle, let the Cao army soldiers feel the terrible place of the Jiangdong army, in the past, the Jiangdong army just stuck to the city, giving the Cao army a feeling that the Jiangdong army was just like this, and now the Jiangdong army suddenly recklessly on the battlefield, but it made the Cao army suffer heavy losses.

Cao Cao's face was a little terrible, and the strategists in the tent did not look very good, many of them were still complimenting Cao Cao that he would break through Xiling yesterday, but he didn't expect the Jiangdong Army to launch a surprise attack at night.

Cao Cao glanced at the generals in the tent and snorted coldly: "The enemy army raided, but the army didn't get the slightest news before, and pulled out the general who was in charge of patrolling the camp last night and beheaded it to show the public. ”、

A moment later, a scream was heard outside the tent, and the head of the night patrol general was sent to the tent for the soldiers.

The atmosphere of the Chinese army's tent became more solemn, the enemy's surprise attack was not expected by the night patrol generals, and most of the generals in the army did not expect it, who would have thought that the Jiangdong Army would dare to launch a surprise attack under such circumstances.

"Lord, there is news from the city that Zhou Yu was not injured, just to confuse our army, and it was Zhou Yu who commanded last night's battle." Cheng Yu said.

"Zhou Yu'er, An dares to deceive me like this, after breaking through Xiling, he will definitely break your body into thousands of pieces, so that he can vent the hatred in Benhou's heart." Cao Cao scolded.

"My lord, sixty percent of the thunderbolts in the army are damaged today, and the giant thunderbolts are the most seriously damaged." Xun Yu arched his hand.

"The craftsmen in the herald army will build thunderbolts day and night, the cavalry will inquire about the situation on the battlefield in detail, and after the generals of each department go back, appease the soldiers in the army, and if there is a problem with the soldiers of any department, this marquis will not tolerate it." Cao Cao said.

"Whoa." The generals in the tent said in unison.

After the generals left, Cao Cao sighed: "Ben Hou was a little negligent before, but I didn't expect Zhou Yu to be so cunning, and he regretted his previous persuasion. ”
