Chapter 67 Offensive and defensive momentum, reluctant to retreat
Outside Nanchang City, Sun Ce and Zhou Yu used Huang Gai's remnants as a tool to plan to flank Liu Xiu and defeat Liu Xiu's ordinary soldiers!
Huang Gai had more than 10,000 soldiers and horses in front, sneaking up on Liu Xiu halfway, and at the same time stumbling Liu Xiu's Beifu soldiers; At the same time, Sun Ce also led more than 10,000 soldiers and horses to attack Liu Xiu from behind, and was responsible for defeating Liu Xiu's 20,000 ordinary soldiers!
And although Liu Xiu's soldiers were deployed by Wei Rui, there was no chaos at the beginning, but when Sun Ce's two armies flanked each other, even though the Beifu soldiers were still fighting bravely, the other 20,000 troops gradually began to be chaotic, and there were even a few routs!
In this way, Liu Xiu's situation instantly became precarious
In spring and summer, it is the time when the weather is changeable, I don't know when it started, a large number of dark clouds gathered in the sky, it is really a good picture of "black clouds crush the city and want to destroy"!
As soon as Sun Ce saw that Liu Xiu's 20,000 ordinary soldiers began to be chaotic and flee, he attacked like crazy, and the little overlord gun in his hand was even faster, more urgent, and braver; Luo Cheng, who was in charge of blocking him, was exhausted for a while, even with the help of the lightning white dragon horse.
And Sun Ce was surrounded by Tai Shici, Gan Ning, and Zhou Tai to help, and Luo Cheng was forced to retreat constantly; Seeing this, Liu Xiu had no choice but to send the talisman general Zhang Hao forward to help Luo Cheng, so that he could maintain an undefeated situation!
And Liu Xiu himself, he can only rely on his own martial arts, fortunately, Liu Xiu has been in the habit of practicing marksmanship hard in recent years, although he is not a martial artist with great power of the gods, but there is Yang Gon, a veteran of the battlefield, who always supervises and teaches, and his martial arts are also considered to be a small achievement; Therefore, if it is data, how can Liu Xiu's martial arts at this time have 75~80 points, and it is not a problem to kill some small soldiers and protect himself; What's more, Liu Xiu is in the middle of the battle between the front and back ends, which is the safest place.
As time passed, the sky was getting darker, and the sky was covered with dark clouds, lightning and thunder
At this time, the battlefield at both ends was almost divided between victory and defeat, the front end of Liu Xiu's army, Wei Rui only relied on 5,000 Beifu soldiers, and directly defeated the attack of Huang Gai's more than 10,000 troops, and Huang Gai's side was almost defeated, and now there are less than 2,000 men and horses struggling there;
And the battlefield behind Liu Xiu's army is another scene
After Sun Ce's side relied on sneak attacks to gain an advantage in momentum, the military formation gradually gained a peak, resulting in Liu Xiu's 20,000 ordinary soldiers killed and wounded, and more than half of the rout; At the same time, Luo Cheng, Zhang Hao, and Yang Sanlang, who besieged Liu Xiu's side with several fierce generals and generals, beat Liu Xiu's rear camp almost without any power to fight back!
Just as Sun Ce was planning to take advantage of the victory to pursue and defeat Liu Xiu's remaining 10,000 soldiers, he saw that Huang Gai on the other side of the battlefield had been defeated by the Beifu soldiers and fled;
In such a scenario, Sun Ce was also helpless, knowing that the best time had passed, if he delayed any longer, when Liu Xiubei's soldiers were free, his more than 10,000 men and horses might also get in; In addition, he had already achieved his goal at this time, so after thinking about it left and right, he decisively chose to retreat
Sun Ce was vigorous when he came, and when he withdrew, it was already in order, which shows his ability to train troops
Liu Xiu saw that the Beifu soldiers in front of him were free up to prepare a lesson to Sun Ce, but he didn't want Sun Ce to retreat directly, such a situation made Liu Xiu hate it so much, he understood that Sun Ce's trip was to exchange his life for his life and greatly reduce the number of soldiers under his command, and such an action directly caused him Liu Xiu to no longer have enough soldiers to attack Nanchang City!
Liu Xiu couldn't help but snort when he thought of this, he didn't expect Sun Ce to use this method of killing a thousand enemies and inflicting eight hundred self-losses against him
Liu Xiu ordered everyone to clean up the battlefield, and then gathered the remnants of the soldiers, and then returned to the camp unhappily!
Outside the big tent was a majestic rain, but inside Liu Xiu's big tent was quiet!
Liu Xiu stared at the list of soldiers and horses in his hand, his eyes were full of anger
After Sun Ce's deathless attack, Liu Xiu's army was directly reduced by more than 10,000 troops, and now with the addition of 5,000 strong troops from Beifu, there are only about 15,000 people left, and there are many wounded among them; And in this bad weather, if you don't treat and recuperate in time, I'm afraid it will also be the result of disability and death!
At this time, Liu Xiu was very distressed in his heart, his fingers kept tapping on the table, and asked everyone in a deep voice: "Now our army has suffered heavy casualties, and the seriously injured are even more in danger, what can I do?!" ”
Liu Bowen and Wei Rui also secretly blamed themselves, although they had always been prepared for Sun Ce's sneak attack, they had never thought of Sun Ce's life-for-life combat method, so they were thinking about it in their hearts;
After a while, Wei Rui first said in a deep voice: "Lord Qiqi, the last general thinks that it is no longer suitable to attack Nanchang at this time, and now our soldiers have been injured and urgently need treatment, and they are no longer able to attack the city; What's more, in such a rainy weather, even if Nanchang is stormed, I am afraid that it will be difficult to gain something! Therefore, the last general thinks that it is unwise to continue the siege at this time! ”
When Liu Xiu heard this, he didn't reply, but just closed his eyes and pondered quietly.
And Liu Bowen also opened his mouth at this time and said: "Enlighten the lord, Ji has also observed this celestial phenomenon, I am afraid that today's heavy rain will not stop in the short term, the lord should make a decision as soon as possible!" ”
After Liu Bowen finished speaking, he persuaded Liu Xiu again: "Actually, the lord doesn't need to be so anxious, as long as the lord guards Panyang, this Nanchang County will be in my pocket after all!" Therefore, Pan Yang is the most critical place! ”
Liu Xiu heard what Liu Bowen said, and the hand that was tapping on the table suddenly stopped, and for a moment, there was silence in the big tent
After such a long time, Liu Xiufang opened his eyes and decided in a slow and deep voice: "Since it is unavailable, and there are many wounded soldiers, then let people pack up the camp and return to Panyang immediately!" As for this Nanchang City, after General Ben reorganizes his troops, he will come to clean up Sun Ce! ”
"Whoa!" All the soldiers responded in unison.
After the soldiers retreated, Liu Bowen stared at Liu Xiu for a while, and then spoke again: "If the lord has to take Nanchang City in a short period of time, he can order someone to build a dam in the upper reaches of Nanchang City recently, thinking that after the heavy rain, he will take Nanchang City!" ”
When Liu Xiu heard this, he instantly turned his head to look at Liu Bowen, stared at Liu Bowen for a moment, and then said lightly: "This kind of strategy will be less in the future!" As for the dike, let's build it first, use it or not, and then make a decision! ”
Liu Bowen bowed and saluted, and said with a faint smile: "Huh! ”
Besides, in Nanchang City, no matter what Liu Xiu's plan is next, Sun Ce is smiling at this time, you know, since he started the war with Liu Xiu, he has lost more than he won, and now it is rare to succeed in the plan, so he is naturally happy to act on the table and laugh happily.
"Gong Jin, Liu Xiu's face must be ugly at this time, he would never have imagined that my target would be his ordinary soldiers! Hahaha"
"Hehe, what Liu Xiu's face is, I don't know, but I know that he won't raise troops for the rest of the next month."
