Chapter 1516: Strike the army and make peace

Sun Ce nodded slightly, on the battlefield, let him realize the strength of the Cao army, which also strengthened Sun Ce's idea of training an elite cavalry, before the Jiangdong Army relied more on the naval army and the Jingzhou army, although the strength of the cavalry is important, the cavalry is much worse than the Cao army in terms of combat effectiveness, and after Cao Cao occupies Xiangyang, it will inevitably become a major enemy of the Jiangdong army, if the Cao army cannot be suppressed in the cavalry, it is bound to be in a weak position in the future war.

"Why is there so much noise outside the camp?" Sun Ce heard the shouts outside the camp and couldn't help asking.

Zhou Yu said: "Without him, it's just the soldiers in the army who are training." ”

At this moment, a general hurriedly walked in, "Cao Ren led the heavy cavalry to fight outside the camp, saying that there was no one in the Jiangdong army. ”

Sun Ce was furious when he heard this, and was about to lead the army to go, but he was stopped by Zhou Yu.

"Lord, now the withdrawal of troops should be the priority, if the lord leads the army to retreat......" After Zhou Yu finished speaking, Sun Ce's eyes lit up.

"The sermons are not allowed to fight." Sun Ce ordered.

The Jiangdong army could not hold out, Cao Ren ordered the heavy cavalry to keep scolding outside the camp, in terms of scolding the formation, the Cao army was much worse than the army under Lu Bu, and the soldiers of the Jiangdong army even scolded the Cao army above the camp.

Cao Ren could only lead the cavalry back to the army.

The next day, the Jiangdong army retreated in a hurry, judging from the news from the details of the Jiangdong army, it was Sun Ce who learned that Cao Jun was fighting outside the camp yesterday, and he was angry and had an arrow wound.

Cao Cao laughed and said: "I didn't expect Sun Ce Xiao'er to be such a narrow-minded person, and ordered Cao Ren to lead the heavy cavalry to chase and kill the Jiangdong Army. ”

Xun You persuaded: "My lord, there are wise people like Zhou Yu in the Jiangdong Army, so beware of the Jiangdong Army's deception. ”

"Heavy cavalry is fine." Cao Cao waved his hand disappreciatively.

The ability of the heavy cavalry has been reflected in the confrontation with the Jiangdong Army, and Cao Ren is a famous general in the army, if he leads the heavy cavalry to pursue, there must not be much of a problem, even if it is the strategy of the Jiangdong Army, with the strength of the heavy cavalry, it can easily get away.

Cao Ren led a thousand heavy cavalry to pursue the Jiangdong army, on the way, but there were Jiangdong army soldiers suddenly killed, when facing the Jiangdong soldiers, the heavy cavalry naturally will not be afraid to fight, but the enemy army actually has such a sharp weapon as a bed crossbow, it can be seen that Zhou Yu spent so much effort in order to deal with the pursuit of the Cao army.

In the face of the bed crossbow, even if Cao Ren had a heavy cavalry in his hands, he didn't dare to hold it up in the slightest, just a volley of crossbow arrows caused the heavy cavalry to lose more than 20 people.

Cao Ren saw that the Jiangdong army had an ambush, and it was so shameless, he could only lead the heavy cavalry to retreat, but the Jiangdong army arranged a heavy ambush along the way, so that the Cao army was overwhelmed, but in the face of such an enemy Cao Ren was a little helpless, the heavy cavalry of the Cao army was elite, but the Jiangdong army won by surprise, if it was a confrontation on the frontal battlefield, the heavy cavalry of the Cao army would not have the slightest fear of the Jiangdong army.

After Cao Ren led the troops back to Cao's army, he lost hundreds of heavy cavalry, which made Cao Ren ashamed.

When Cao Cao heard what had happened, he immediately ordered Cao Chun to lead a thousand tiger and leopard cavalry to continue the pursuit of the Jiangdong army.

Many of the strategists and generals in the tent looked puzzled, their own army had just been repelled by the Jiangdong Army, and if they sent cavalry there again, they would not be able to achieve results.

Cao Cao said with a smile: "Sun Ce Xiao'er deliberately retreated, lured our army to pursue, and after repelling our cavalry, he must have neglected to take precautions and sent cavalry to chase and kill again, which will definitely have the effect of surprise." ”

"The lord is wise." Everyone in the tent said.

Cao Cao stroked his beard under his chin and smiled with satisfaction, if possible, Cao Cao would like to lead his troops to attack the three counties occupied by the Jingnan Jiangdong Army, Sun Ce's injury is a great opportunity for his side.

However, the current situation of the Cao army is not suitable for launching a large-scale battle again, one after another, the soldiers are tired, and they need time to recuperate, not to mention that the Cao army still has neighbors such as Lu Bu, although when the Cao army attacked Jingzhou, the army of Chang'an did not make a move, it does not mean that Lu Bu will sit back and watch the Cao army drive Sun Ce's forces out of Jingzhou.

Sure enough, as Cao Cao expected, when Cao Chun led the tiger and leopard cavalry to catch up, the Jiangdong army really did not take precautions after the victory, and Cao Chun led the tiger and leopard cavalry to chase and kill for several miles, get fifty bed crossbows, and capture hundreds of people, and the strategists in the army were once again impressed by Cao Cao's means of showing his hands.

After the Jiangdong army returned to Jiangxia, Sun Ce listened to Zhou Yu's words and sent an envoy to Cao's army to make peace, and Cao Cao had the intention of armisticing and pushed the boat down the river, and the two sides temporarily stopped fighting.

On the battlefield of Jingzhou, the most serious loss is Liu Bei, originally with Yizhou and Jingzhou, Liu Bei's strength instantly improved, stronger than Sun Ce's strength, but this situation was only a flash in the pan, after the capture of Yizhou, resulting in the weakness of Jingzhou, Cao's sudden return of troops, attacking Jingzhou, so that the Jingzhou army was defeated and retreated.

Half a month later, Cao Cao chose the auspicious day of the zodiac, built an altar outside Xiangyang City to worship the sky, proclaimed the world, supported Liu Cong to become the emperor of the Han Dynasty, and issued an order to count Liu Bei's crimes.

The dignity of the Han family, which was about to cease to exist, was once again brought even more shock by such actions.

Although the royal family of Jingzhou did not have much influence on the princes, many people still thought that they were the people of the Han Dynasty, but the appearance of two emperors made the people confused when choosing, Liu Cong inherited the unification and became the new emperor of the Han Dynasty, which was a great encouragement for the officials of the Jingzhou army.

Cao Cao was canonized as a lieutenant for Liu Cong, and oversaw the military power under his rule, in fact, no matter what position Cao Cao was in, it did not have much effect on his influence in Jingzhou now, and now the affairs of Jingzhou are Cao Cao's words, and the officials in Jingzhou are also acquiescing, and the more turmoil they have experienced, the more they understand what kind of status the dignity of the court has in the hearts of the princes.

However, in terms of face, Cao Cao has to do more thoroughly than Liu Bei, at least he will ask Liu Cong's opinion on some things, although Liu Cong is still young, but it makes the officials in the court feel sincere from Cao Cao.

After Liu Bei learned of this, he was naturally not to be outdone, announced the world, denounced Cao Cao, and deprived Cao Cao of his position as a lieutenant, and Jingzhou and Yizhou once again became places that attracted everyone's attention.

There are no two days in the country, and there are no two masters in the people, and this kind of behavior can only make the last trace of the Han family completely dissipate.
