Chapter 162: Under siege

The drums and horns on the building boat played in unison, Tai Shici drove the boat to chase Cao Cao first, and Jiang Qin and Zhou Tai led the troops to escort the left and right.

The fleet of Soochow was like a beast, rushing straight to the water village on the north bank, and Cao's army hurriedly released arrows on the shore, but it was no longer able to stop the warships that broke the waves.

Tai Shi Ci stretched his bow and arrows, the ape arm was lightly relaxed, several enemy generals on the shore fell to the ground in response, Cao's army was in chaos, and Cao Cao also fled to the back village surrounded by guards.

Bang bang bang –

The ship crashed into the port, like an earthquake, the entire water village was trembling, and the morale of the Wu army rose greatly, and they picked up their weapons one after another, followed Tai Shici and others to the shore together, and chased the enemy in the village.

Zhou Yu led the army to the center of the river, suddenly heard the sound of drums shaking the sky, and hurriedly urged the boat forward, seeing that the navy had already killed the opposite bank, the figures in the village were running around, and there were shouts of killing everywhere.

Lu Meng laughed and said, "Cao Thief is arrogant, I don't think that's it. ”

He and Tai Shici were both in Yuzhang at that time, and did not participate in the battle of Hefei, and when they heard the news, they were unbelievable, and now they met the enemy in person, and when they saw that Cao's army was about to collapse, they did not care.

"Not good!" Zhou Yu stood at the bow of the boat, his face suddenly changed greatly, and he ordered: "Quickly Mingjin retreats." ”

Lu Meng was puzzled: "The men and horses landed on the shore and drove the big advance, it was when they took advantage of the victory to fight, why did they defend the army?" ”

Zhou Yu said in a deep voice: "If the Cao army leaves as soon as it fights, it will be lost on the water, and it will be when our army lands on the shore and fights again, and there will be an ambush in the village." ”

General Lu Meng was suspicious, and the sound of gold was loud in an instant, but the wind on the river was very loud, and the sound of drums and fighting in front shook the four fields, and the front army could not hear the order at all.

Zhou Yu ordered people to wave the banner to retreat, but Tai Shici and the others had already entered the village and could not see the situation on the river.

When he was anxious, a dull drum beat sounded on the shore, and the green smoke of several water villages in the east floated up and spread to the west.

In the mid-spring season, the southeast wind on the river is tight, and once the fire spreads, the front army and the rear road will be cut off, and the consequences will be unimaginable.

"Hurry up and meet the front army!" Zhou Yu was shocked and immediately sent Lu Meng, Zhu Huan, Ding Feng, and Pan Zhang to drive the boat downstream.

As soon as the fleet came out, I saw that all the water villages had thick smoke rising, black smoke billowing out, filling the river bank, under the scorching sun, I still saw the flames rising.

"Cao thief!" Zhou Yu's face turned pale, and he gritted his teeth and said, "I didn't set the fire, but you burned it yourself." ”

Originally, he planned to send a fleet to rush over and burn the water village in the evening when the east wind was at its strongest, but who knew that Cao Cao was so decisive and burned the water village to resist the enemy.

Lu Xun, who was guarding the Chinese army, drove the boat to the front, hugged his fists and said: "Governor Dadu, Cao Cao has set up an ambush since Boiling Water Village, and must have decided to retreat to Weisu, why don't you land the whole army, rescue the generals, and occupy the north bank?" ”

Zhou Yu glanced at Lu Xun in surprise, and immediately ordered: "General Lu and Pan Zhang landed from the downstream, and went upstream to respond, and attacked from both sides, and broke Cao's army together." ”

Lu Xun was ordered to drive the boat, led half of the men and horses, and went quickly down the river, Zhou Yu looked at Lu Xun's back at the bow of the boat, his eyes were deep.

Tai Shi Ci was too aggressive, the enemy was ambushed, he was impatient just now, and he was almost out of order, this rising star of the Lu family has such a keen observation, and he can be described as a handsome talent.

At this time, the sound of killing on the shore was already shocking, and Zhou Yu was not allowed to think too much, and the rest of the fleet went upstream, bypassing Cao Jun's water village and outflanking it backwards.

Tai Shici rushed into Cao's camp first, danced the iron halberd and killed several people in a row, staring at Cao Cao in a red robe, and led the troops to chase after him.

After chasing out of the back village, he saw a general blocking the way, and shouted: "Jiao is here, Wu dog is down!" ”

Tai Shi Ci didn't answer, pursed his lips and strode forward, anxiously furious, urging the horse to dance and slash straight over.

Tai Shi Ci did not retreat but advanced, staring at the big knife that was swinging over, such as Yuan Yue Zhi, and when the mount came closer, he roared the iron halberd to meet the big knife.

The cavalry is condescending to the infantry, and then by virtue of the impact of the war horse, it has a natural advantage, and in the face of the impact of the cavalry, the infantry without formation can only avoid.

"Die!" Jiao Touch swung his knife vigorously to slay the man who stood in his way.

But he saw Tai Shici's waist twisting, and when the big knife was approaching, he suddenly dodged, and slashed with a knife, because of the excessive force, he shook on the horse for a while.

At this time, Tai Shici's iron halberd poked at him, as if his body was facing the tip of the halberd, and with a snort, he pierced into his left ribs.

With a pop, Jiao Fu was in the scream, and was pulled off the horse by Tai Shici by pulling the belt of his robe, and under the huge momentum, his internal organs were shattered, and his body rolled over, and he vomited blood clots and died.

This is just a face-to-face effort, Cao Cao is still not far ahead, Tai Shici grabbed the mount, picked up the big knife and turned over, and shouted: "Cao thief Hugh go!" ”

"Kill my brother and still want to leave?"

Zhang Nan and Jiao Touch are both old generals of the Yuan family, and they have the closest relationship, and they were ordered to guard the rear camp, and when they saw that Jiao Touch was killed, they came to take revenge.

Tai Shi Ci's face sank like water, and continued to urge the horse forward, only Cao Cao in his eyes, Zhang Nan stepped forward, and between the two horses, he was cut under the horse with a knife.

The Cao army was in a panic, the soldiers who rushed up were all killed and scattered by Tai Shici, Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin also led the troops at the same time, grabbed the war horses and rushed to kill, the Wu army swarmed up, and the Cao army retreated.

Tai Shi Ci urged the horse to chase after Cao Cao, and suddenly blocked the way, with big shoulders and round waist, covered in armor, like an iron tower, and hummed: "I Xu Chu will meet you!" ”

Whenβ€”

Tai Shi Ci urged him to step forward immediately, slashed it with a knife, was blocked by Xu Chu's horizontal knife, and came back with a shock, and couldn't help but be secretly shocked in his heart, he had heard the name of Cao Cao's guard "Tiger Idiot" for a long time, and his strength was really good.

When turning the horse's head and fighting again, suddenly the drums in Cao's camp were loud, and the ambush soldiers rose in all directions, Xiahoudun, Lejin, and Zang Ba led the troops out respectively, and the cavalry came down the mountain like a tiger, galloping wildly.

Tai Shi Ci turned around sharply, saw the smoke on the shore, and suddenly realized that something was wrong, and exclaimed: "It's a plan, withdraw quickly!" ”

"Wu Dog stabbed me!" Xu Chu laughed wildly and slashed at him, not allowing Tai Shici to retreat at all.

Tai Shi Ci was in a hurry, gritted his teeth to catch Xu Chu, and shouted at Zhou Tai and the others: "After I come to break off, retreat quickly!" ”

Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin hurriedly commanded their men and horses, and retreated to the water village while fighting, and only by retreating into the village could the cavalry rush be blocked by means of fences and trenches.

The speed of the cavalry was extremely fast, especially the newly recruited Xianbei cavalry led by Lejin, who, like the Wuhuan Tu cavalry, could bend the bow and arrow on the horse and launch cavalry shooting.

Le Jin arrived first, the war horses roared past, and the chaotic arrows fell, and the Wu army fell in a large area, and the hastily organized formation was in chaos.

Xiahoudun and Zang Ba followed, and with a fierce charge, the Wu army was scattered, just as they attacked the Cao army with warships on the water, the situation was reversed, and it was impossible to stop it at all.

Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin had just retreated to the gate of the village, but they saw that the fire in the village was burning, the smoke was spreading, and the hot flames were so hot that they couldn't get close at all, so they had to rush forward to kill.

The two also took advantage of the chaos to grab the war horse and fought hard in front of Tai Shici, Zhou Tai helped force Xu Chu back, and said loudly: "There is a fire along the coast, and the retreat is cut off." ”

Tai Shi Ci turned his head to look, his face suddenly changed greatly, and when he saw that Cao Jun was outflanking him again, he shouted: "The Metropolitan Governor will definitely come to the rescue and break through to the east." ”

Zhou Tai and the others also knew that they were under siege at this time, and only by breaking the cauldron and sinking the boat could they have a chance of survival, so they organized people and horses to rush downstream to kill.
