Chapter 1071: The Decisive Battle of Qingzhou (2)
"Guo Jia? What the Prime Minister said is true, this person is not easy to deal with! β
At Zhou Yu's point, it is often just a glance to distinguish whether a person is strong or not, Guo Jia's whole person is as cold as ice, and he is extremely strong with a wave of his hand, he is undoubtedly a top strategist, and he can change the situation of the battle!
"If the prime minister can defeat you, so can I!" Zhou Yu's eyes flashed, and with a wave of his hand, a brilliant white glow was sprinkled, very soft, covering the front row of foot soldiers, which actually offset the cold and snow in the sky a lot, making the front stable and no longer so vulnerable.
Guo Jia's eyes shrank, and his face gradually became solemn, but although the lethality was reduced a lot, his original intention was just to buy some time for the Cao army, and now the Cao army has rebuilt its defenses and is not afraid of a battle.
The ice realm is still unfolding, and it has even expanded a lot, covering a distance of hundreds of zhang, but the snow in the sky is no longer there, turning into a biting cold wind, and the air is extremely cold.
This does not have direct attack power, so Zhou Yu's means are useless at all, the Jiangdong army was caught off guard and was in the cold, many people's attack and defense speed has decreased a lot, and the pace seems to be a little slow, the strength of the two armies is not much different, Cao Jun took advantage of the situation to counterattack, and completely controlled the situation and no longer retreated.
Seeing this, Zhou Yu snorted coldly, and sprinkled infinite white light between his waves, and the covered person suddenly felt refreshed, although the body was still cold, but the fighting spirit was blazing, which could be regarded as offsetting part of Guo Jia's skills on the side, so that the battle would not form a one-sided situation.
"Disperse and attack from other directions!" Zhou Yu deliberately avoided this section, no matter how strong the strategist's ability is, it is limited after all, it is impossible to cover the entire battlefield, this side only needs to be contained, and the Jiangdong Army still has a great advantage in other directions.
Feather arrows fly, swords and guns are dazzling, a big battle begins, each other starts a bloody battle, the scale of the million-person battlefield is extremely huge, divided into dozens of miles of battlefields, blatantly colliding!
The encounter depends on the strategist, and the decisive battle depends on the commander, such a large battlefield cannot be controlled by the top commander, but Cao Cao and Zhou Yu are both the world's top commanders, every command is very timely, and there is almost no deviation, which is shocking.
Zhou Yu was extremely competitive, and as soon as he changed his command to attack the army, he looked at Guo Jia coldly: "I heard that you are scheming, what else do you have ability, let's use it together!" β
Guo Jia smiled: "You know a lot, but why do I have to use tricks?" Now I'm going to be a royal soldier, see how you resist! β
With his words, the feather fan in his hand waved lightly, and suddenly the mountains shook, and the sound of horses' hooves resounded throughout the battlefield, but it was the cavalry of the Cao army who launched an offensive!
Zhou Yu's complexion changed, the Jiangdong Army is good at water warfare, and land warfare is also strong, but the cavalry is really not good, Jiangdong is beautiful, but the durability of the war horse is not as good as the good horse in the north, and the weight is not satisfactory, so there are few heavy cavalry, and ordinary light cavalry cannot be regarded as the top, so the cavalry is its weakness, and there are only 50,000 cavalry in the 500,000 army, and the elite Cheng dΓΉ is not too high.
Different from Jiangdong, the people of the north are fierce, although the climate is relatively cold, but the production of good horses, Youzhou and Bingzhou are the two most important good horse production areas, other places are not weak, Cao Cao has Yanzhou and Qingzhou, stop up a huge cavalry force, 100,000 cavalry are all brave, extremely strong.
Now Guo Jia has abandoned the conspiracy and used the royal army instead, attacking the enemy's weakness with his own strength, which is really the best choice!
Zhou Yu's face is very ugly, this is completely targeted, Jiangdong has many foot soldiers, good at defending, and the north has many cavalry, good at attacking, this is an inevitable fact, because of this, in history, the third emperor of Eastern Wu made great efforts, and in the end he could only rely on the Yangtze River to defend, and there was no competition for the capital of the world, which is a regional shortcoming, and because of this, the Jiangdong Army has a very set of defensive cavalry attacks, but the foot soldiers are at a disadvantage after all, and they must invest a lot of troops if they want to defend against the impact of cavalry. In this way, there is a high probability that the battle ahead will not be able to make progress, which Zhou Yu does not want to see.
"I only hope that the prime minister's soldiers and horses can help me resist!" Zhou Yu sighed helplessly.
A sneer crossed the corner of Guo Jia's mouth, although Zhang Fan's cavalry was elite, there were not many of them, only 10,000, compared to the 100,000 iron cavalry of the Cao army, it was really not enough to see, not to mention that there were 20,000 ace tigers and leopards among the 100,000 cavalry of the Cao army, this battle would definitely be won!
Keeping the ice field undispersed and continuing to weaken the combat strength of the Jiangdong Army, Guo Jia turned his head to look at the periphery of the battlefield, but the scene in front of him shocked him, for no other reason, only Cao Ren!
Cao Ren fought with Xiahoudun before, wanting to behead Zhang Fan, and then Cao Cao ordered a retreat, Xiahoudun Xu Huang immediately returned to the headquarters of the soldiers and horses, without much obstruction, but Cao Ren encountered trouble here, Zhang Fan, Zhao Yun and Chen Ji chased after him, Zhao Yun was fast, strong, and did not expect to be able to kill Cao Ren, just blocked his way, forced Cao Ren to constantly change the direction of escape, and was getting farther and farther away from the cavalry army!
Guo Jia frowned suddenly, Cao Ren is the commander of the tiger and leopard cavalry, and he is also the highest general of the cavalry in this battle, responsible for commanding all the cavalry, and now he can't return to the army, and the cavalry team has no leader, and he is at a loss for a while.
"What are you chasing after me? A battlefield of millions of people, chasing only one of me? Cao Ren wanted to cry without tears, and at the same time he was extremely anxious, wanting to command the cavalry, but he couldn't get out, so he was really helpless.
After all, Zhang Fan had faced off with Cao Cao several times, and knew the strength of Cao's cavalry troops, and the current Jiangdong Army did not have the elite cavalry of the Jizhou Army, and it was by no means an opponent, so Zhang Fan moved his mind to Cao Ren, the cavalry commander!
The three of them chased and intercepted, forcing Cao Ren far away, Zhang Fan saw that the distance was about the same, and immediately said: "Zilong, you watch him closely, you must not let him return to the army, I will lead the army to fight, and defeat the Cao army cavalry first!" β
"Be careful, lord!" Zhao Yun nodded, holding Cao Ren back is equivalent to weakening a large part of the combat effectiveness of Cao Jun's cavalry, which can make the battle easier, and it is not a waste of his combat power, and if he can kill Cao Ren......
Thinking of this, Zhao Yun's eyes flashed with coldness, and his spear stabbed horizontally, directly taking Cao Ren.
Cao Ren's entry into Tianwu was no longer so easy to kill, but he still felt frightened in the face of Zhao Yun, and he didn't dare to hesitate at the moment, so he could only fight while running, getting farther and farther away from the battlefield.
There are only two choices in front of the Cao army's cavalry, either ignore Cao Ren and attack by the deputy general, or save Cao Ren first, but this qiΔ happened too abruptly and didn't have time to react, and when they reacted, a golden figure was already standing in front, and tens of thousands of cavalry rushed behind them, with a fierce momentum!
Zhang Fan chose to take the initiative!
