Chapter 192: Zhou Yu's Scheme
Zhou Yu looked back, and saw that the resolute faces of the soldiers behind him were all filled with monstrous anger, and at the same time cast a trusting gaze at him, Zhou Yu couldn't help but draw his sword out of the sheath, pointed the sword to the north, and said loudly: "Cao thief is in front, I hope that all the kings will help a certain arm, and fight bravely to kill the enemy!" ”
"Ten thousand deaths have been rewarded for the general's kindness!" All the soldiers behind Zhou Yu shouted in unison, angry and impassioned!
Whether it was the roar of Zhou Yujun's soldiers or the large number of warships on the river, Cao Hongjun had already attracted the attention of Cao Hongjun, and at this moment, Cao Hong was also looking across the river, thinking about countermeasures in his heart.
The Weishui River flows from west to east, and although Cao Hongjun guards the river, he cannot guard against the numerous wharves on the bank of the Weishui River, after all, it is impossible for Cao Jun to chase Zhou Yu's army on land like a mad dog.
Although this is the case, Cao Hong is not afraid, after all, he has 7,000 soldiers under his command, not to mention a force that is good at land warfare, and Zhou Yu on the opposite side can break through Cao's camp with only a few hundred water troops.
"General! The enemy is in need! The soldier beside Cao Hong suddenly shouted.
Cao Hong was startled, and couldn't help but look around, only to see a large number of soldiers on the south bank of Weishui, looking at its banner, it should be Yuan Shujun, and the number of people is about two or three thousand.
"Reinforcements from the hinterland of Yuzhou?" Cao Hong's face remained unchanged, but his heart was full of emotion, although the south bank of the Weishui River is the hinterland of Yuzhou, but there is only one small city within dozens of miles, and the defenders in the city are less than 3,000.
Cao Hong was curious, if the defenders of the enemy army poured out of the city, what would happen to the city? With the speed of the messenger's order, Yuan Shu would never have ordered the defenders in the city to rush out to support the soldiers on the north bank of the Weishui River at this moment.
So how did Sun Ce and Zhou Yu dispatch so many soldiers? Cao Hong knew in his heart that Sun Ce was only a partial general, and Zhou Yu was attached to Sun Ce, who only belonged to the generals, and in terms of official positions, neither of them was as big as the officials in the city, and it was even more impossible for the city to obey the dispatch of these two.
Cao Hong naturally didn't know, but Guo Jia guessed a few points, and Guo Jia's guess was the same as what Sun Ce and Zhou Yu did.
Decisive and ruthless, fast and practical, between the two armies, restraint is the most affecting the battle situation, even the slightest mistake will be lost, so in any case, Sun Ce Zhou Yu can only have the strength to fight with Cao Jun by killing people and seizing power, otherwise it is all empty talk.
"General, reinforcements have arrived!" A young general beside Zhou Yu suddenly bowed his hand.
Zhou Yu smiled loudly, looked around, and saw that the time had come, and immediately ordered: "The whole army is going east, and order Yuan Shu's army to attack the Cao army on the north bank with thousands of soldiers in Weicheng!" ”
The whole army that Zhou Yu was referring to was naturally the 500 naval army under his command.
"General, the thousand Yuan Shu troops wandering in the north suddenly stormed our department!" Cao Hong suddenly ran beside him, and a young general arched his hand.
"Yuan Shujun in the north?" Cao Hong knew in his heart that it was a thousand enemy troops from Weicheng, who had been wandering around the neighborhood before, and Cao Hong was afraid of his deception, so he did not send troops to attack, but immediately sent a detective horse to send a message to Guo Jia, waiting for a decision.
At this moment, the thousand Yuan troops in the north suddenly attacked, and cooperated with the two thousand Yuan Shu troops on the other side of the Weishui River, and Cao Hong immediately felt bad in his heart.
The enemy army is flanking from the north and south, the battle situation is unclear at this moment, Cao Hong does not dare to move, he can only wait for the change of the fighter plane, as for the change of the fighter, after all, Guo Jia once said that if the enemy army comes to attack, he will personally lead a large army to help.
And this fighter, either Guo Jia brought troops to help, or the battle situation was clear, and it was found that the enemy army only had less than 4,000 soldiers, or others.
But no matter what, Cao Hong has the ability to face all the situations at this moment, after all, he has a full 7,000 soldiers under his command!
"Kill! Crossbowmen line up in front of the shore and shoot the enemy who tries to get to the shore! Cao Hong shouted, and the soldiers beside him immediately gave an order, and all the soldiers in the camp went out and went straight to the Weishui River.
As for the north side of the camp, it was guarded by Cao soldiers.
The soldiers of the Cao army have been waiting for the formation along the river, and as long as Yuan Shu's army lands, it will be a beach-grabbing landing battle.
Zhou Yu stood on the warship, looked around, and saw that Cao's army was already in formation, and the two thousand reinforcements from Runan behind him had just boarded the ship at the moment, but he always gave people a calm and calm demeanor, and everything was under control.
Zhou Yu smiled faintly and said: "Order Yuan Shu's army to send out 500 soldiers, go upstream, force the Weishui, go straight to Ancheng, and order the remaining 1,500 Yuan army soldiers to storm the bank of the Cao army." The soldiers behind him immediately turned around and gave the order.
However, Zhou Yu led five hundred soldiers from his cronies to go downstream.
In a short time, 1,500 soldiers of Yuan Shujun had boarded the ship and docked, and immediately fought with the Cao army on the shore.
Whether it was a water battle or a landing battle, the first to attack must have been the crossbowmen, and after a few rounds of fire, the soldiers on both sides suffered numerous casualties, but the battle was as before.
Cao Hong saw the change in the formation of the enemy's warships, and was divided into three routes, fearing that it would be deceitful, and he was unable to divide his troops to guard each wharf, so he could only defend the camp, and at the same time storm the 1,500 Yuan Shu army soldiers on the Weishui River, not to mention that there were still 1,000 Yuan Shu troops in the north who were attacking fiercely, and the enemy was attacked on the back of the abdomen, and the battle situation was unknown, how could Cao Hong have the power to divide the troops, and a few enemy troops going upstream and downstream in the Weishui River, Cao Hong could only helplessly let go.
At this moment, Zhou Yu had led his five hundred elite sailors to cross the Weishui River and go straight to Guo Jia's army.
……
……
At the same time, Anseong.
At this moment, Ancheng has been occupied by Xiahou Yuan with 5,000 Cao troops, Xiahou Yuan is standing and looking into the distance with the city, and he has ordered his soldiers to send Tanma to report the news to Guo Jia, and at the same time let his Tanma inquire about the surrounding battle situation and news.
Xiahou Yuan's eyes suddenly froze, and when he fixed his eyes, he saw that thousands of enemy troops suddenly appeared in the west, and judging by their number, there were about two thousand people.
"No enemy troops around? Could it be the defenders of Cai County? What is the purpose of using troops in this way? Xiahou Yuan was puzzled, he knew in his heart that there were no enemy troops around Ancheng at this moment, but the enemy army poured out of the nest and also abandoned Cai County, so the method of using military force made Xiahou Yuan puzzled for a while.
If Xiahou Yuan orders his soldiers to go out of the city to kill the enemy, he will be able to break the enemy army, and at that time he will take Cai County like a bag to take things, but Xiahou Yuan knows in his heart that Sun Ce and Zhou Yu are not simple nobodies, and he will not make such a decision, so he couldn't help shouting: "The three armies are guarded, wait and see what happens, when will the horse return?" He couldn't help but smell a hint of danger, the enemy army must have its own profound strategy in such a layout, although Xiahou Yuan couldn't guess the enemy's intentions, but he also knew that the enemy army would never send troops casually for no reason.
"General, the horse has not returned, so I will let the soldiers under my command explore again!" A young general beside him immediately bowed his hand.
