Chapter 991: Bloodstained White Horse Lake

Cheng Pu listened to the noisy movement in the forest, couldn't help sneering, and at the same time secretly admired Zhou Yu's use of soldiers like a god, which was also a fire attack, but he was indeed a little reckless, he didn't observe the direction of the wind, if he rashly went up to light a fire, it is estimated that this fire could not burn in the forest at all, but it would startle the snake, and once the Xuzhou army knew that it was discovered, it would definitely retreat in the direction of Huai'an, enter the city and hold on, how could he catch up?

Zhou Yu's idea was obviously more perfect, and the flames that ignited from the rear brought enough threats to the Xuzhou army, and even allowed Cheng Pu to block the road of its retreat, forcing the Xuzhou army to fight, which was a fraction of a millimeter!

Cheng Pu sneered and ordered the arrows to be released, in fact, the arrows against the woods did not have much lethal effect, and a large part of the arrows were nailed to the book, but this could bring absolute fear to the other party, and let the morale of his army plummet, so as to facilitate the next attack,

Sure enough, the Xuzhou army was in chaos, there were feathered arrows in front of them and flames behind them, almost holding their heads and running away, led by Cao Bao and rushing out quickly, without saying a word, they attacked and killed Cheng Pu, in a vain attempt to open a passage and escape back to Huai'an.

Cheng Puzi will not let them get their wish, a large part of the soldiers and horses he brought out are defensive troops, and they have laid out the formation earlier, and the Xuzhou army cannot be assembled for a while, let alone set up the formation, and it is impossible to break through the defense line in a short time.

At this time, I only heard a noise of gongs and drums, and then there was a shout of killing, Cao Bao trembled and looked back, but saw a young general leading Jiangdong soldiers and horses out of the camp and killing this side!

Zhou Yu smiled faintly, everything was in his control, in fact, he had already given the order to assemble, and at this time, he rushed out, and the timing was just right, and the young general in the lead was not someone else, but the new generation of military generals in Jiangdong, Lu Meng and Lu Ziming!

Lu Meng is an upstart in Jiangdong, and his strength is close to the realm of Tianwu, and he is even better than Huang Gai and other generals of the older generation, but unfortunately his resourcefulness is insufficient, Zhou Yu let Zhou Taizhen guard Jiangdong, and brought it out, so that he can grow up quickly and be able to take charge of himself in the future.

At this time, Cao Bao was completely panicked, where did he care about anything else, the crazy Chao Cheng Pu killed the past, Cheng Pu had fewer soldiers and horses, if he could break through the siege, there was still a glimmer of life.

Cheng Pu sneered again and again, and let the shield infantry form a tortoiseshell formation to defend tightly, with pikemen in the rear, and thousands of archers in the rear, including his special type of ice archers, each arrow shot out of the ice qi, slowing down the speed of the Xuzhou army a lot, so cooperating with each other, interlocking, and immediately effectively suppressed Cao Leopard's offensive.

Cao Bao was furious, rushed to the doctor, and shouted at Cheng Pu with a gun: "Old horseman, dare to fight with me?" ”

Cheng Pu shot an arrow without saying a word, he was also good at using arrows, the arrows were attached to the cold and icy air, and the frost was dense, Cao Bao felt inappropriate after resisting a few arrows, and he rose up bravely and rushed forward, wanting to fight with Cheng Pu in close combat.

Cheng Pu's force is not weak, how can he be afraid of battle, when even if he swings his big knife to fight, the strange thing is that his big knife is also cold bursts, which makes Cao Bao extremely uncomfortable when touched, and his attack and movement speed have been affected a lot, and it is difficult to exert his full strength.

In fact, there is not much difference in the strength of the two, but Cheng Pu's ability is the most suitable for fighting at the same level, but anyone who can't kill him in seconds will be slowly consumed by him, and the cold ice qi gradually condenses, holding Cao Bao back to death, and letting him roar again and again is helpless, and he can't win.

More and more Xuzhou soldiers ran out of the woods, at this moment the fire is approaching, they can't come out, the woods are already in chaos, some soldiers have flames burning on their bodies, howling madly, extremely miserable.

There are trees in the forest, and it is better to run than flat ground, many soldiers are scrambling, and it is not uncommon to see small-scale infighting in order to survive, and even many people are trampled to death, and the tragic situation is indescribable.

Although most of the people still escaped, the space between the lake and the woods was originally small, and as soon as so many people poured out, the battle line immediately extended out, and the people in the rear immediately encountered the main force of the Jiangdong Army led by Lu Meng, and they suffered heavy losses and were defeated by surprise.

Cao Bao couldn't fight Cheng Pu for a long time, and he didn't see Chen Deng's reinforcements arrive for a long time, so he couldn't help but feel anxious, and he was taken by Cheng Pu in the chest for a while, so he simply had armor to protect him so that his life was not in danger, but he didn't dare to fight anymore, and hurriedly retreated.

The main general was defeated and retreated, the enemy was on three sides, the morale of the Xuzhou army was great, and he attacked for a while, but he was never able to break through, and finally completely lost his will to fight.

Seeing this, Zhou Yu sneered, and immediately asked Lu Meng to press, while driving away the Xuzhou army, while releasing arrows into the lake, where could those Xuzhou soldiers who entered the water still be able to resist, they were hit by arrows, and the blood spread in the lake.

Seeing that he couldn't advance or retreat, Cao Bao was already frightened in his heart, and hurriedly shouted in the direction of the Jiangdong Army base camp: "I'm willing to surrender, don't kill me!" ”

Zhou Yu's eyes flashed and nodded: "Okay, put down your weapons to avoid death!" ”

Cao Bao hurriedly abandoned his weapon and came over, and immediately someone tied him up and escorted him to Zhou Yu's side, Zhou Yu ignored him and continued to command the battle and kill.

The soldiers of the Xuzhou army saw Cao Bao surrender, and scolded angrily at the same time, and became more and more panicked, some people immediately chose to abandon their weapons and surrender, but more people panicked and jumped into the lake, and the result was self-evident, no matter how fast they swam, they could not pass the feather arrows quickly, and they were shot in the lake, dyeing the entire lake red!

After half an hour, the remaining Xuzhou army soldiers were less than tens of thousands, and at this time Chen Deng's soldiers and horses were late, the original plan was to let the Jiangdong army go first, and then he led the soldiers and horses to intercept it, forcing the Jiangdong army to fight, and then Cao Bao was ambushed at the tail end, attacking on both sides, but Chen Deng did not wait for the Jiangdong army soldiers and horses, and heard the sound of killing, so he accelerated to come, but he didn't expect to be a step slower.

Looking at the soldiers and horses in the encirclement who had lost their resistance, Chen Deng knew that the general trend had gone, and it was impossible for him to save these people.

The battle here ended quickly, the Xuzhou general Cao Bao was captured and surrendered, capturing more than 50,000 Xuzhou troops, killing more than 150,000, corpses all over the field, blood stained Changhu!

Endless blood polluted the originally clear White Horse Lake, so that the blood could not fade after a long time, folk rumors said that this was the unjust soul of the Xuzhou soldiers, everyone avoided it, and it also showed Zhou Yu's divine might!

Zhou Yu won a great victory when he was born, and his blood stained White Horse Lake, and since then he has become famous and unparalleled in the world!
