Chapter 290: Change of Strategy

The elite of the 3,000 naval army led by Ganning Zhou Tai quietly sailed to the north village of Lu Bu's army. At night, gradually approaching the shore, Gan Ning Zhoutai was pleasantly surprised to find that the vigilance on the shore was very lax, and there were only a few sentinels. The light boat sailed into the shallow water area, Gan Ning gave an order, the elite of the three thousand sailors immediately abandoned the boat and landed on the shore, and quickly killed the Beizhai, Lu Bu's army was caught off guard, and the enemy army entered the village and set fire everywhere, and for a time the entire Beizhai was in flames, and the shouts moved the ground.

Zhuge Liang, who heard the movement, ran out of the big tent, looked to the north, and saw the fire in Beizhai, and only countless figures were seen in the firelight. Zhuge Liang was taken aback, he immediately realized that he had made a fatal mistake, he had neglected the defense of Beizhai.

Ma Chao rushed over and reported urgently: "Military division, Sun Jian's soldiers and horses broke into Beizhai, and the soldiers of Beizhai couldn't resist it!" Hurry up and order reinforcements! ”

Zhuge Liang calmed down, turned his head to look at the dark Shangyong City in the distance, and frowned.

Ma Chao saw that Zhuge Liang had not made a decision for a long time, and urged urgently: "Military advisor, if you don't make a decision, it will be too late!" ”

Zhuge Liang turned his head and said categorically: "Order Zhang Liao to send eight thousand foot soldiers to reinforce Beizhai!" ”

Ma Chao was stunned, "How can eight thousand be enough?" ”

"I have my own plans! Just go! ”

Ma Chao couldn't, so he had to hold his fists and promise, and ran down.

……

Zhou Yu and Sun Jian stood on the city wall and saw the flames of Lu Bujun's Beizhai from afar, and they couldn't help but be overjoyed. Sun Jian said excitedly: "Gong Jin's plan has succeeded!" Zhou Yu said: "Lord, hurry up and march." Sun Jian nodded, pulled out the ancient ingot knife and swung it forward. The hundreds of thousands of troops who had been waiting below immediately set out, poured out of the city gate, and rushed towards the Lu Bu military camp.

When the army rushed to the front of Lu Bu's military camp, they saw that there was silence in the camp opposite, and it was dark and gloomy, as if there was no one.

Zhou Yu immediately felt that something was wrong, and hurriedly said to Sun Jian: "Lord, something is wrong!" Beizhai is full of flames, why is this Chinese army Dazhai so silent? Sun Jian immediately felt the strangeness, frowned, and shouted in a low voice: "Order the front army not to move, the army will slowly retreat, and the cavalry team will prepare for battle." The order was conveyed, the front army stopped advancing, and lined up on the spot more than fifty paces in front of the Dazhai of the Lu Bu army, while the army slowly retreated, and the cavalry troops slowly dispersed to the two flanks to prepare for emergencies. At this moment, the fire in Beizhai is still burning, and the sound of killing is shocking, but it seems to be an incomparably distant thing for the soldiers here.

On a watchtower, Zhang Liao was accompanying Zhuge Liang to look at the enemy army outside Dazhai. Zhang Liao said strangely: "Why did the enemy stop advancing?" ”

Zhuge Liang narrowed his eyes, "They found out, they want to escape!" Turning his head to Zhang Liao, he said: "Immediately send an order to General Ma Chao to launch an attack!" ”

Zhang Liao immediately went to give the order.

As a signal rocket rose into the night sky, the earth suddenly trembled, and the sound of rumbling thunder filled the air. Zhou Yu and Sun Jian were startled, and hurriedly looked to the left, and saw that the 100,000 blue wolf army was surging, like a surging tide, like a raging rush, as if it was unstoppable!

Sun Jian roared: "The left flank cavalry is fighting!" The army retreats into the city at once! ”

Fifteen thousand cavalry on the left flank immediately met it, and the main army of hundreds of thousands hurriedly retreated towards the city.

At this moment, the gate of the wall was opened, and the Pingnan Army and the Tiger Wing Army poured out to attack head-on. The 10,000 foot soldiers in charge of the broken rear saw the tide of Lu Bu's army coming, and they all changed color. In the blink of an eye, the surging tide hit the front line of Sun Jian's army, a fierce battle and collision, Sun Jian's army defense line was torn to pieces, Sun Jian's army was caught up in the wave, some of them were swarming and fighting, some lost their armor and ran for their lives, no matter what choice these Sun Jianjun soldiers made, their figures were soon swallowed up by the tide!

On the other side, the cavalry of the 15,000 Sun Jian Army who were facing the Blue Wolf Legion fell into a bitter battle at this moment, and under the impact of the Blue Wolf Legion's landslide and tsunami, Sun Jian's cavalry was like a piece of cloth that had been torn to pieces. People shouted and neighed, blood was flying, the Jiangdong cavalry was brave, but it looked so powerless in front of the invincible blue wolf army! The Blue Wolf Legion is like a storm on the grassland, and like a fire in the prairie, where no grass grows, the horse's hooves that fly like a tide, the sword light that flies all over the sky, it is almost no longer the power of people, it is the power of anger, no one can resist it!

The Koto cavalry finally collapsed.

The pursuer of LΓΌ Bu's army, Sun Jian's army, routed his troops until they reached the bottom of the city wall, and were stopped by the bows and crossbows on the city wall. The army did not attack the city, and collected its troops and returned to the camp.

At this time, the sound of the battle in Beizhai basically disappeared, and the burning flames were gradually extinguished.

Sun Jian stole chickens and rice, and was depressed.

Soon after, the sergeant came to report that Zhou Tai and Gan Ning had returned. Immediately, the two generals rushed into the hall and bowed down with shame: "I have been entrusted by the lord, and no enemy army has forced me back, and I have lost more than half of the losses!" The two of them were scarred on their armor robes, and their faces were covered in blood, making them look a little wolf.

Sun Jian hurriedly came over to help the two of them, patted them on the shoulders, and comforted: "The two generals don't have to be discouraged, victory or defeat is a common thing in soldiers." The two generals stood up and stepped aside.

Zhou Yu frowned and said, "Zhuge Liang is really not simple!" The fire in Beizhai was not chaotic, but it was calculated! ”

Sun Jian frowned, "Zhuge Villager, don't underestimate the enemy!" He turned his head to look at Zhou Yu and asked, "What is the situation of our army's losses?" ”

Zhou Yu said: "After the break, the 10,000 infantry army was completely annihilated, and the 15,000 cavalry lost about 10,000, plus the loss of Ganning Zhou Tai, a total loss of about 22,000. ”

Sun Jian was distressed for a while, and scolded angrily: "Zhuge Villager, I will definitely break his body into thousands of pieces to eliminate the hatred in my heart!" He returned to the top and sat down, frowned, and said, "I'm a little worried about the war in Nanyang!" After all, it's an army of 300,000! Huang Gai, I am relieved, but he only has 100,000 horses in his hands, and 50,000 reinforcements are still on the way! ”

Zhou Yu understood, "The lord wants to support Nanyang? ”

Sun Jian nodded, frowned, and said, "Zhuge Villager, but here, the combat power of the 300,000 Lu Bu army is not trivial!" I'm afraid it will be difficult for our army to do anything here, so it's better to divide troops to support Nanyang for the sake of insurance! ”

Zhou Yu was a little unwilling, and just wanted to object, but suddenly his heart moved: It's better to take the opportunity to destroy the Lu Bujun besieging Nanyang, it's not bad! At this point, he hurriedly said: "Since the lord plans to support Nanyang, then we might as well expand our actions!" Sun Jian looked puzzled. Zhou Yu said: "Our army has set up a false banner here, and the main force of the army will rush to Nanyang as fast as possible, and will join the Nanyang defenders to flank Lu Bu's army!" Lu Buke was captured! ”
