Chapter 430: Burning the barracks and retreating from Cao's army

readx;

"Kill!" The two armies were in a scuffle, shouting and killing shook the sky, Jiang Qin and Zhou Tai were worthy of being Jiangdong generals, and they were able to block the attack of Cao's army! But with the continuous influx of Cao Jun, the pressure on the two is increasing. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 Seeing that he couldn't attack for a long time, Cao Ying said angrily: "Order Han Meng and Gao Ran to immediately lead troops to attack!" Zhongkang, come with me! ”

"Yes!" Knowing that he was going to fight hard, Xu Chu clenched the big knife in his hand and protected Cao Ying's side, and the giant knife like a door panel killed all the enemies five steps away. After taking a deep look at Xu Chu, Cao Ying nodded with great satisfaction. Speaking from the heart, he likes Xu Chu more than Wei Yan, who is quite resourceful.

"Second son, give the order to retreat!" Looking at the Jiangdong army that was retreating one after another, Lu Su smiled and said: "Put all the Cao army into the camp!" ”

"Good!" Seeing that Cao's army was unstoppable, Sun Quan ordered the whole army to retreat with a gloomy face. He thought that he could block Cao Jun without igniting a fire, but he didn't expect Cao Jun to be so fierce.

"Sun Quan has retired!" Seeing Sun Quan Daxu retreating from a distance, Lu Yi immediately made a loud noise, the morale of Cao's army soared, and the whole army was afraid of death to kill Sun Quan.

"That's not right! The Jiangdong Army was not defeated, why did it retreat? In the melee, Cao Ying saw the Jiangdong soldiers retreating while fighting, and suddenly had an ominous premonition.

"Prime Minister, it must be Sun Quan who knows that he is invincible and wants to retreat to preserve his strength!" Hearing Cao Ying muttering to himself, Xu Chu said his thoughts while killing the enemy.

"Perhaps!" The haze in his heart lingered, but Cao Ying didn't want to let Sun Quan go, he gritted his teeth and led the army to kill Sun Quan.

"Whew..."A big gun swept over Cao Ying's head, and Xu Chu cut the owner of the big gun in two. The soldier who was beheaded couldn't die for a while, and he hugged Xu Chu's horse legs, but was trampled into meat by Xu Chu's war horse! Looking at the Jiangdong soldiers who were trampled into flesh, through the faint light of the fire, Cao Ying found that there was a layer of thatch on the ground, and there were faintly many criss-crossing shallow ditches between the thatch, and I don't know what kind of liquid flowed in it!

"Tung oil?" Sniffing his nose vigorously, in the thick smell of blood, mixed with a hint of familiar smell, Cao Ying's mind turned, and he was suddenly shocked: "Pass the order and exit Sun Quan's camp!" ”

The herald rushed away, and Xu Chu asked puzzledly: "Prime Minister, our army is gaining the upper hand, why do you want to retreat?" ”

"No more nonsense, get out of here!" Cao Ying didn't have time to explain, and shouted directly: "Our Zhongsun Quan's trick!" ”

"Yes!" Although he didn't know what tricks Sun Quan had fallen, Xu Chu had always been obedient, whether it was to Cao Ying or Liu Bei, he was obedient. Since Cao Ying asked him to retreat, he didn't say a word, and rushed to the outside of the camp with Cao Ying.

"Want to go? It's late! Seeing that Cao Jun wanted to retreat, Lu Su sneered: "Order Zhu Huan to raise his army and shoot rockets into the camp!" ”

With Lu Su's order, countless Jiangdong soldiers appeared around Sun Quan's camp, all of them holding a longbow in their hands, and the bow also had a lit rocket on it. Ten thousand arrows were fired at once, and the rockets ignited tung oil, and tung oil spread the flames throughout the camp along with the shallow ditch. The thatch burned, and tongues of fire licked the tents and walls, turning the camp into a sea of fire!

"It's on fire, get out!" The situation was reversed in an instant, and Cao Jun, who was originally like a bamboo, fled in panic like a lost dog. The Jiangdong army didn't pursue, they just stood behind the camp in line and shot those Cao soldiers who seemed to be headless flies with bows and arrows!

"Prime Minister, come with me!" When the fire broke out, Xu Chu was shocked, but he quickly calmed down. Thinking back then, he followed Liu Bei, what dangers had he not encountered? Cases like this, although uncommon, are more than a dozen times.

"Zhongkang, kill a bloody road!" The entire Sun Quan camp was blown up, tens of thousands of Cao troops crowded into the camp, and when they saw the fire ignited, they all wanted to rush out of the camp, and the chaotic soldiers blocked the road tightly. Seeing that the situation was critical, Cao Ying would not be relentless, and he immediately asked Xu Chu to cut down his subordinates in order to seize his life.

"Yes!" Xu Chu is not a good person, and he doesn't know how to cherish his soldiers. In addition, his task was to protect Cao Ying, and with Cao Ying's order, the giant knife in his hand slashed at Cao Junjun. There was Jiangdong Army blocking the road in front, there was a monstrous fire around him, and there was Xu Chu's butcher's knife in the back, and the Cao soldiers were a little desperate!

"Hugh is gone!" Seeing Cao Ying going outside the camp under the escort of Xu Chu, Sun Quan and Lu Su, who were standing on a high place and commanding the battle, hurriedly ordered Jiang Qin, Zhou Tai, and Lu Meng to lead troops to surround and kill. In their minds, if Cao Ying can be kept here, Jiangdong will rise!

"Dead open!" Killing his own soldiers, Xu Chu may still be a little unbearable, but if he kills Jiang Dong's soldiers, he will never be soft. The big knife in his hand was as light as a weight, a semicircle was slashed, more than a dozen spears were broken, and seven or eight heads flew up, Xu Chu's fierceness made the Jiangdong soldiers fearful!

"Youping, come with me!" Seeing his soldiers being slaughtered, Jiang Qin roared and said, "Xu Chu, Hugh is arrogant!" ”

"Good time!" Jiang Qin's horse was fast, and he rushed forward, Xu Chu shouted, raised his knife and slashed head-on!

"That's a lot of strength!" On the bridge during the day, Xu Chu only used his momentum to let himself take a step back, and Jiang Qin was still a little unconvinced. But as soon as he received the knife, he felt that his arms were numb, and he couldn't hold the weapon, and he couldn't help but be shocked.

"Do you dare to be strong in front of me with this little ability?" Xu Chu's face was hideous, and he only used eighty percent of his strength with the knife just now. As soon as the blade turned, ten percent of the power was added to the knife, and Xu Chu slashed at Jiang Qin's head!

"Youping help me!" The giant knife roared and slashed, Jiang Qin knew that he was invincible, and hurriedly beckoned Zhou Tai to help.

"When..."Zhou Tai finally blocked the giant knife with Jiang Qin before the knife fell, but he was forced back three steps by the force of the shock on the weapon, while Xu Chu was forced to take five steps back!

"Prime Minister, I'll entangle them, you go first!" After admonishing Cao Ying beside him, Xu Chu smiled and said, "Two tired bastards, watch me kill you!" ”

"Don't be ashamed!" Knowing the bottom line of Xu Chu's martial arts, Jiang Qin breathed a sigh of relief, if he and Zhou Tai couldn't stop Xu Chu, then it would be a big trouble! However, if Xu Chu is blocked, he will not be able to take down Cao Ying, which makes Jiang Qin feel a little aggrieved.

Xu Chu brandished a giant knife and fought with Jiang Qin and Zhou Tai. Cao Ying knew his martial arts, and rushed to the outside of the camp after beating his horse. But how could Sun Quan let Cao Ying escape? After setting the fire, Zhu Huan surrounded him with the soldiers who set the fire. Cao Ying gritted his teeth and pulled out the Heavenly Sword at his waist, wanting to kill a bloody path.

"Cao Mengde, you will be my prisoner honestly!" Seeing that Cao Ying was going to work hard, Zhu Huan couldn't help laughing, no matter how bad he was, he was also a Jiangdong general, and his martial arts were much stronger than Cao Ying!

"Prime Minister is surprised, Cao Chun is here!" Just when Cao Ying was a little desperate, the sound of huge horses' hooves sounded. Three thousand tigers and leopards rode under the leadership of Cao Chun and stormed into Sun Quan's camp. The wall that was on fire fell with a thud, injuring countless soldiers.

"Take down Cao Ying!" Seeing that the cooked duck was about to fly again, Zhu Huan was furious, and he sent soldiers to surround and kill Cao Chun, while leading troops to intercept Cao Chun.

The tiger and leopard cavalry is the most elite cavalry under Cao Ying, divided into tiger cavalry and leopard cavalry. The tiger cavalry is like a heavy cavalry, with a strong crushing ability, while the leopard cavalry is a light cavalry, used to outflank and intersperse. In order to attack Sun Quan's camp, Cao Chun brought all the tiger horses, and the heavy cavalry like a tank tore Zhu Huan's department apart in an instant!

"Die!" Seeing that his soldiers were slaughtered by tiger and leopard cavalry, Zhu Huan's heart was even more angry, he waved the spear in his hand, and killed Cao Chun!

"Dead open!" Cao Chun is in charge of the tiger and leopard ride, how can he not have the ability? He swept the spear in his hand and swept it towards Zhu Huan's waist. Not to be outdone, Zhu Huan stabbed Cao Chun in the chest with a shot.

A mouthful of blood spurted out, Zhu Huan looked at Cao Chun's chest in amazement, his spear was indeed pierced there, but it only made Cao Chun pause slightly, and Cao Chun's spear swept his waist, but it made him spit blood! Just stunned for a moment, Zhu Huan fled, he wondered if Cao Chun had used some magic tricks!

Looking at the scratches on his breastplate, Cao Chun also pinched a cold sweat in his heart. The armor on his body was newly created under Cao Ying's command, and his chest was protected by a whole piece of stainless steel. In the experiment, except for the huge strength of Xu Chu and other generals who can cut it open, ordinary generals have no magic weapons, and can only leave scratches. Of course, even if the armor is strong, it doesn't feel good to be stabbed. If it weren't for the rush to rescue Cao Ying, Cao Chun would not have come hard!

"Zihe, are you okay?" Zhu Huan was defeated, and Cao Ying broke out of the encirclement and came to Cao Chun's side.

"It's okay! Thanks to this armor! Cao Chun patted the treasure armor on his body and said with a smile: "If it weren't for the generous gift of the eldest brother, I would have to take down Zhu Huan, and it would take a little trouble!" ”

"What a gift! In the future, the whole world will belong to our Cao family! Cao Ying smiled and said: "Zihe, follow me to rescue Xu Chu, Lu Yi and other generals!" ”

"Big brother, you withdraw first, and leave the matter of rescuing the generals to me!" Sun Quan's camp was full of fire, and Cao Chun didn't want Cao Ying to take the risk.

"This..."Cao Ying thought for a while and said: "Then I'll withdraw first, you go over there, Zhong Kang is being besieged by two generals under Sun Quan, don't let him have any accidents!" ”

"Don't worry, big brother, I know how to do it!" Cao Chun patted his chest, looking very confident.

"Good!" Cao Chun is the second general in the Cao clan after Cao Ren, and Cao Ying is very relieved of him, otherwise he would not hand over the tiger and leopard to him! Cao Ying nodded, turned around and rushed towards the Cao army camp.

The night passed slowly, the sky gradually turned blue, and with the addition of Cao Chun and the tiger and leopard riders, the battlefield fell into a stalemate again. If you persist like this, it is the Jiangdong Army that is unlucky, Lu Su smiled and said: "Second son, retreat!" ”

"Just retreat?" In addition to causing Cao Jun to lose a lot of soldiers, he didn't even leave a general of Cao Jun, Sun Quan was full of unwillingness. He saw that the generals were besieging Xu Chu, so he wanted to see if he could take Xu Chu!

"Don't wait any longer!" Lu Su said: "Cao Ying has returned to the camp, and there should be a general in the Cao camp." If they come with a large army, our army will lose its camp and will definitely not be able to resist. Now, we have won for a while, and we have broken the situation of Cao Ying's overwhelming power. As long as the stalemate continues, when the eldest prince breaks through Nanjun, Cao Ying will have to retreat! When the time comes, we will follow and pursue, not only to defeat Cao Ying, but also to capture Yuzhou! ”

"This..."After staring at Lu Su for a long time, Sun Quan suddenly sighed and said, "Order to retreat!" ”

"The second son is wise!" knew that Sun Quan was unwilling in his heart, and he knew that he didn't want to wait for Sun Ce's victory, but when he really endured it, Lu Su was secretly worried. Compared with the hero Sun Ce, Sun Quan is a hero!

The sky was getting brighter, and a red wave rose from the east. Sun Quan had already retreated ten miles, and Cao Ying had also retreated to the north bank. In the original Sun Quan Village, there were ashes everywhere. The charred corpses have not been disposed of, but neither Cao Jun nor Jiang Dongjun can tell where the corpses belong, so they can only roughly gather the corpses together and dig a big pit and bury them!

Cao Jun is in the big tent, and Cao Ying sits in the first place, but he no longer has the majesty he used to have. Although he has been protected by Xu Chu, he was still burned by the fire. ** Half-body, the medic was smearing something on him, and the pain made him grin. What's even more interesting is that his face was blackened by the fire, and the short hair under his jaw was also burned and rolled up, looking very embarrassed.

"See the lord!" After cleaning up the battlefield, all the generals of Cao's army returned to the big tent one after another. Xu Chu took off his armor and let the military doctor treat his injuries, and his injuries were slightly more than Cao Ying's.

"Excuse me!" Cao Ying wanted to wave his hand magnificently, but as soon as his shoulder moved, he pulled the wound, and he grinned in pain! When everyone saw his demeanor, they wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh, and they almost choked back their internal injuries! Seeing that everyone's faces were flushed, Cao Ying smiled and said, "If you want to laugh, laugh!" Isn't it a small loss! ”

Hearing Cao Ying's words, everyone finally couldn't help laughing. Seeing this, Cao Ying shook his head and sighed: "Hurry up and laugh!" After laughing, report back to the picture! ”

Everyone couldn't let Cao Ying be too ugly, and after laughing a few times, Xun You arched his hand and said: "Prime Minister Qiqi, our army attacked the camp last night and lost 30,000 soldiers, but the generals were not damaged!" ”

A total of 50,000 troops were dispatched, and after Sun Quan's plan, he lost 30,000, which is not much. You know, there are still many soldiers who got lost in the escape and have not yet returned. Cao Ying nodded and asked, "How is Sun Quan's side!" ”

"Back to Prime Minister, because the corpses are charred, it is really impossible to count, and the losses of our army are still the income of the returning soldiers, so it is impossible to estimate Sun Quan's losses!" Xun You shrugged his shoulders, his expression was quite helpless!

"If you can't estimate it, just give up!" Cao Ying said with a smile: "Thirty thousand of our army were injured, and Sun Quan had at least 10,000 casualties." If it weren't for the fear that Liu Zhang would take advantage of the situation, Benxiang would be able to destroy Jiangdong at any time with an army of 200,000! ”

"What the prime minister said is very true!" Xun You bowed and said: "Now that Sun Quan has retreated ten miles to the village, whether our army wants to cross the river to pursue, please show the prime minister!" ”

"Sun Quan defeated our army, what should we do next?" Cao Ying rubbed the short beard of his chin and rubbed off his burnt beard while muttering to himself, and the big tent fell into a silence!
