Chapter 540: A Moment of Non-stop Aggression (Second Update)
Two armies with the same determination fought fiercely on this plain.
As a result, countless people were killed and wounded, and countless people fell on both sides of the world. But those who are careful can find that almost every three people fall Sergeant Zhou, only one Sergeant of the Sixth Army will fall.
Whether it is in morale, equipment, or numbers, this army is much inferior, too much.
In an army, determination alone is often not enough.
Under the slaughter of Wei Yan, Li Yan, Sha Moke, Chen Da, and Zhao Yun, the armies of Zhu Zhi and Lu Dai basically only resisted for half an hour.
Half an hour later, the fierce fighting continued. But most of the Jiangdong soldiers were either killed or surrendered on their knees.
Only Zhu Zhi remained, and Lü Dai led an army of more than 1,000 people to form a circle to continue to resist.
And the army that surrounded them was forty or fifty thousand.
"I'm going to pursue Zhou Yu next, and I'm going to give it to General Zhongwei here." Zhao Yun ordered the soldiers to withdraw from the battle circle, and shouted at Wei Yan and Li Yan.
"I wish the general a victory." Wei Yan was killing one Jiangdong soldier after another, and he didn't look back and yelled.
"I wish the general a victory and take Zhou Yu's head and return." Li Yan, Chen Da, and Shamoke shouted one after another.
Zhao Yun smiled, at this time, his cavalry finally came out of the quagmire of fighting, and there were many dead and wounded, but there were still ** thousand capable fighters.
"Kill." Zhao Yun shouted and led the cavalry to chase Zhou Yu in the north.
Half an hour is not short, but not long. But it was enough for Zhou Yu and them to escape a distance of twenty or even thirty miles, and only Zhao Yun's cavalry could pursue them.
After Zhao Yun left, the fight continued. It's just that the soldiers under the tent of Zhu Zhi and Lu Dai are constantly decreasing, and after a while, there are only a few hundred people left.
Zhu Zhi and Lu Dai did not retreat in this tragic battle, and fought to the end. At this moment, the two of them were covered in blood.
Even Zhu Zhi's xiōng mouth, lù had a long and narrow wound, and blood kept gushing outward. The god was pale, but even so, his eyes were still sharp, and the knife in his hand was very steady.
"Now, why should the two generals make unnecessary resistance. I am not afraid to tell the two generals that my lord is still alive, and Sun Quan has not been able to kill him. I, Jing Chu, am about to be excited, as long as the two of you put down your weapons, turn over and dismount. My lord will definitely use it again. Wei Yan and the others admired these two generals who did not run away and the wounds were only in front. In the end, Li Yan loudly persuaded him to surrender.
"Hmph, loyal ministers don't care about the two masters. Judhy. Zhu Zhi knew that the general trend was gone, and he didn't want the soldiers around him to do more fearless casualties, so he pulled out the long sword at his waist. He laughed at Lu Dai and said, "Brother Lu, I'll go first." As he spoke, he slashed himself with his sword.
"Flutter." The sound of a sharp blade cutting ròu sounded, and in front of Zhu Zhi's neck, blood spurted wildly, shook the horse for a moment, and fell off the horse.
"General." Dozens of soldiers around him cried together, and many even killed themselves with Zhu Zhi's sword.
"Be brave and strategic, and be good at raising soldiers. It's a shame. Li Yan saw it really, but it was too late to stop it. I could only helplessly watch Zhu Zhi kill himself with a horizontal sword, plus more than ten people to accompany the funeral.
Here Zhu Zhi crossed the sword and killed himself, and Lu Dai over there also laughed loudly and said, "Brother Zhu go slowly." After laughing, he rode his horse towards Wei Yan in front of him.
Compared with Zhu Zhi's self-slaughter, Lu Dai was more violent. Before dying, you have to pull a cushion. Looking at Wei Yan, he should be a general, if he can kill this person, he will earn it.
But Wei Yan didn't seem to be with him. Even if there was no Wei Yan, there were dozens of soldiers in front of Lu Dai in front of him.
In the end, Lu Dai's knife did not reach Wei Yan, and he was hacked to death by the soldiers in front of Wei Yan.
Liu Feng, who was sitting in the rear, arrived when he arrived, and only the corpses of these two famous generals of Eastern Wu were left.
plus Huang Gai, who died in the first step, Han Dang. Four of these famous generals of Jiangdong died at once. Liu Feng shouted in his heart that it was a pity.
What a wonderful thing it would be if all the famous generals in the world could be gathered and formed into ordinary civil and military generals. Unfortunately, it is often unsatisfactory ** out of ten.
In this war, Liu Feng was thinking in his heart, how could one or two surrender. But as a result.
"My lord." Wei Yan, Li Yan and others ordered the deputy general to clean up the mess, and they all rode their horses to Liu Feng's side, dismounted and bowed.
"The generals have worked hard." Liu Feng put away the regret in his heart, it is common to die on the battlefield, let alone an enemy general. Just now, Liu Feng also issued an order to hunt down and kill Zhou Yu at all costs, and he can't blame these generals for not holding Zhu Zhi and Lu Dai's lives.
Besides, Liu Feng glanced at his generals, all of them were bloody, and almost all of them were injured. Looking at Chen Da's xiōng, the armor was all cut off.
lù out of the blood ròu inside, the injury is not light.
"Those who are seriously injured go back to the camp to heal their injuries." Liu Feng glanced at Chen Da, and there was another seriously injured Li Yan, and said.
"No." I hadn't noticed it just now, but now Chen Dacai felt that he seemed to be bleeding too much and was extremely dizzy. didn't hold on, promised a word, and together with Li Yan, rode back to the camp to treat his injuries.
"What's going on over there with Zhou Yu?" After Chen Da and the others left, Liu Feng glanced at Wei Yan and asked.
"General Zhao Yun has already reined in his troops to chase and kill. Should be able to keep him. The generals saved Wei Yan with the least of his injuries, and replied when he heard this.
"Zhou Yu went north, I am afraid that he planned to hide in the Hanchuan River to avoid the cavalry, and Zhao Yun may not be easy to chase and kill. You choose 5,000 people in the army to support Zhao Yun in the north. If Zhou Yu led his troops to hide in the mountains and forests, he went into the mountains to chase and kill. It's just that Zhou Yu is cunning, so he must be cautious and don't fall for the scheme. After giving the order, Liu Feng said to Wei Yan again.
"No."
Wei Yan was stunned for a while, answered, and immediately turned on his horse to stop the soldiers. Soon after, about 5,000 people came out of the army, and followed Wei Yan to pursue and kill in the north.
The rest healed the wounded and took the prisoners. Return to the main camp. Liu Feng finally ordered.
Although the war was won by a great victory, there were many casualties. But fortunately, there are many people who surrendered, otherwise this loss would have given Liu Feng a headache for a while.
After Liu Feng's order, except for the soldiers who stayed to bury the corpses, all the rest returned to the camp.
All 20 elephants were recovered. It's just distressing that ten of them were injured, and the wounds were all in the tuǐ department.
After returning to the camp, Liu Feng put down the work of treating the wounded soldiers and collecting the soldiers. led Xu Shu, who was still intact, Shamoke and others, to the Chinese army's big tent.
"Lord, now it's time to see the news of General Zhao Yun and General Wei Yan. If Zhou Yu is taken over, then Xiangyang City can be successfully conquered, otherwise there will be a change. Xu Shu was a little dissatisfied with this war.
Zhou Yu, who was originally captured, actually led his troops north and defected to Yu Ban. This was really beyond Xu Shu's expectations.
"Regardless of whether Zhou Yu defected to Xiangyang or not, this Xiangyang still has to be attacked. Otherwise, without Hanchuan as a barrier, most of the cities and lands in the Gangneung Plain would have to directly face the deterrence of Xiangyang's troops. The loss is not xiǎoah. Liu Feng sighed and said.
This incident was also unexpected by Liu Feng. However, this is not a problem for Liu Feng. Let's not talk about whether Zhou Yu can escape Zhao Yun and Wei Yan's pursuit.
Let's just say that Zhao Yun's pursuit should be able to defeat Zhou Yu a few times. Cut off part of Zhou Yu's troops. Even if Zhou Yu escapes, Liu Feng believes that his remnants will not exceed 10,000.
In this way, Xiangyang's troops may only be 20,000. It seems like a lot, but don't forget that even if Zhou Yu escapes and crosses from the mountains and forests to Xiangyang, he will have injuries and even desertions. Combat effectiveness will definitely be weakened. In addition, Liu Feng has such a large army, it is not difficult to break through Xiangyang.
This is the difficulty, and the losses can be much greater.
But that's all later. What is currently in front of Liu Cover is the attack on Jiangling, as well as the results of receiving Pang Tong's siege of Calcium City, as well as the situation of Gan Ning's sneak attack on Hukou.
In addition, there is also a Liu Bei next to him. Liu Bei is definitely a variable.
"Zhongye go and take an inventory and see how many more capable soldiers we have." After thinking about it, Liu Feng instructed Wen Ping next to him.
"No." Wen Ping was shocked and counted the soldiers. That is to say, Liu Feng is about to attack Jiangling in the near future. While Wen Ping was taken aback, he also had to sigh that Liu Feng's appetite was really big.
It's not enough to break Zhou Yu, but also to take Jiangling in a short time. It is really imposing and confident.
"The lord is in a hurry to attack Jiangling, is he worried that something will happen to Liu Bei?" Xu Shu also frowned and asked.
In his opinion, the army had just broken through Zhou Yu. The soldiers were tired, and the injuries were serious, so they had to rest for a while, at least for a day, before they could start attacking Gangneung.
It's too dangerous to attack directly. Even if it is because of Liu Bei's threat, it feels too big. It's too rash.
"Yes. I am afraid that Liu Bei will unite with Xu Huang in the city to fight against my army. After the Battle of Chibi, he Zhou Yu was able to flee to Xiangyang with a ruthless heart. It is not impossible for Liu Bei to cooperate with Xu Huang. Liu Feng said with a resolute face.
Zhou Yu's movements were beyond Liu Feng's expectations. As soon as Cao Cào's ambition was crushed, he went north to join forces with Yu Ban, and his cheekiness was unimaginable. What Zhou Yu has done this week, Liu Bei, who is thicker-skinned, can almost do it 100%.
So, what to do now is to conquer Gangneung. And Liu Feng's plan is tonight.
"Conquer Gangneung, just tonight." Liu Feng smiled confidently at Xu Shu.
"What? At least tomorrow. The soldiers were too tired. Xu Shu was taken aback and shouted.
"I have my own post." Liu Feng raised his head and looked in the direction of Jiangling, with a smile in his eyes.
