Chapter 1990: West Ridge (Page 1/1)

However, the tiger and leopard cavalry is the most elite force in the Cao army, in the face of the charge of the cavalry of the Jiangdong army, there is no timidity, they are just for the war to survive, there are not a few wars experienced, even if they are at a disadvantage, the performance of the tiger and leopard cavalry on the battlefield is still heroic.

After the stalemate of the war for half an hour, Cao Chun had the idea of withdrawing his troops, and there were hundreds of heavy cavalry among the cavalry of the Jiangdong Army.

The appearance of 100 heavy cavalry made the situation on the battlefield begin to move towards an unfavorable situation for the Jiangdong Army.

The tiger and leopard cavalry, which was on a weak position, fought bravely, but there were considerable losses when fighting against the Jiangdong Army.

"Retreat!" Cao Chun decisively gave the order to retreat.

The victory of this battle made the Jiangdong Army gradually ease up from the majesty of the enemy's pursuit, and many soldiers of the Jiangdong Army were full of envy when they looked at the heavy cavalry.

The most important thing for the soldiers on the battlefield is to be able to survive on the battlefield, only by surviving, can there be more hope, and the armor on the soldiers' bodies and the quality of the blades in their hands will affect their performance on the battlefield.

The speed of the tiger and leopard cavalry's retreat was extremely fast, which made Zhou Tai frightened, and the cavalry of Jiangdong was a surprise attack, and the tiger and leopard cavalry showed an extremely strong side when fighting against the Jiangdong cavalry, even if they were defeated by the Jiangdong cavalry on the way to retreat, they still had a commendable performance.

However, this battle was ultimately won by the cavalry of Koto.

After Cao Chun returned to the army, he told him about the process of pursuing the Jiangdong Army, and Cao Cao looked contemplative, the stronger the Jiangdong Army was on the battlefield, the greater the damage it could cause to Cao's army.

At this time, on the battlefield of Yizhou, Lu Bu led the army to march forward, as long as Lu Bu broke the city of Chengdu, it meant that Liu Bei became a loser on the battlefield of Yizhou, such a powerful Lu Bu, how not to let the other princes be frightened.

In fact, Cao Cao also understood that now his biggest enemy with Jiangdong was Lu Bu.

There is a close relationship between the Jiangdong Army and Lu Bu, this situation makes Cao Cao lack a sufficient sense of security, so it is imperative to break the Jiangdong Army, and after the Jiangdong Army's power will be seriously damaged in Jingzhou, the Jiangdong Army will play a smaller role in the future war.

Uniting Jiangdong against Lü Bu, Cao Cao also wanted to make such a choice, but Lü Bu helped Jiangdong a lot, which greatly led to the fact that the Jiangdong army would not easily support Cao's army.

"I don't want to have heavy cavalry in the Jiangdong Army." Cao Cao said.

Xun Yu said: "My lord, even if there are elite cavalry in the Jiangdong army, it is difficult to change the situation in Jingzhou, and Zhou Yu led the army in Jiangxia is just a stubborn resistance." ”

"Gongda, Zhou Yu is a wise man in Jiangdong, and he is extremely powerful in leading troops to fight." Cao Cao said, this is also what he is most worried about, Zhou Yu has a high prestige in the Jiangdong army, and it is difficult to make Sun Quan lose his trust in Zhou Yu by virtue of the discord strategy.

Among the civil officials in Jiangdong, there are many who support him, which also makes it easier for Cao Jun to win to a certain extent, as long as Zhou Yu can be defeated, Cao Cao is confident that Sun Quan will bow down and claim the land of Jingzhou, Cao Cao's strength will be greatly improved.

Although Cao Cao was frightened that the Jiangdong army had heavy cavalry, judging from the battles on the battlefield, although the combat effectiveness of these cavalry was strong, they were inferior to their own cavalry in terms of the sophistication of their horses.

If Zhou Yu set up troops and horses outside Xiling City to fight a decisive battle with his own army, it would be what Cao Cao wanted to see the most.

The two sides set up soldiers and horses to fight to the death, unless Zhou Yu saw the hope of victory, and this matter is extremely difficult, the Jiangdong army is elite, and the Cao army is equally powerful on the battlefield, when facing the Cao army, Zhou Yu will definitely have more thoughts.

"Ordered Cao Hong to lead 5,000 soldiers and horses and rush to Xiling first." Cao Cao ordered.

After Cao Hong received the order, he was extremely excited, and there were 500 tigers and leopards to follow the 5,000-strong army to Xiling, so that it would be easier to find out the situation of the enemy army on the battlefield.

Cao Hong is extremely clear about the combat effectiveness of the tiger and leopard cavalry, and with the tiger and leopard cavalry or the tiger army, it is equivalent to an invincible position on the battlefield.

Five thousand soldiers and horses came in the direction of Xiling, in Xiling City, Zhou Yu was carrying out a series of arrangements, at this time the situation in Jingzhou was extremely unfavorable to the Jiangdong Army, in terms of combat capability, the Jiangdong Army has a big gap compared to the Cao Army, the most elite of the Jiangdong Army is the strength of the water army, if the Jiangdong Army and the Cao Army start a decisive battle on the water, Zhou Yu has absolute confidence that the Cao Army can be defeated, and the battle on land is very different from the battle on the water, if the Cao Army wants to win, It was necessary to defeat Cao's army in a battle on land.

Zhou Yu has more than 40,000 soldiers and horses in his hands, which is already the most elite force in the Jiangdong army, if these armies make any mistakes on the battlefield, it is the biggest threat to Jiangdong.

Jiangdong is not as stable as it seems, from Cao Cao's leading troops to attack Jingzhou this time, it can be seen from the attitude of some officials in Jiangdong that when treating Cao Jun, many officials are oriented to Cao Cao, and behind Cao Cao is the court of Xudu, so that many officials have more ideas about Cao Cao, which is also understandable.

Zhou Yu chose the place of the battlefield in Xiling again, before Cao Chun led the tiger and leopard cavalry to be responsible for the pursuit, and suffered a lot of losses in Xiling, Zhou Yu chose the location of the ambush Cao army in Xiling again, if it can be successful, it will definitely dampen the spirit of Cao Jun.

Knowing that the vanguard general of the Cao army is Cao Hong, Zhou Yu has greater confidence, although Cao Hong is said to be the general in the Cao army, but the ability to lead the troops in combat is much worse than Cao Ren and Xiahou Yuan, Cao Ren is a long-established general in the Cao army, and has been fighting for Cao Cao for many years, and has extremely rich experience on the battlefield, and Cao Hong is generally the deputy general of the army to lead the troops to fight, and now the famous generals in the Cao army lead the troops to fight in other places, and Cao Hong has taken on a heavy responsibility.

The vanguard army plays a pivotal role in an army, if the vanguard army can make meritorious contributions on the battlefield, it will lay a better foundation for the army to achieve victory on the battlefield, on the contrary, if the vanguard army has serious losses, it will make the rear army feel hopeless.
