Chapter 113: Returning with a Great Victory
The way he said to deal with this was the safest, and Zhou Yu didn't say more. Wait for Sun Quan to make a decision.
Sun Quan also recognized Lu Su's strategy. After all, I don't know what the situation is in this dark night, so it's better to be safe. After all, Liu Xun's insidiousness is not a matter of one or two times.
Therefore, Sun Quan ordered Lu Su to lead 2,000 archers to the shore to release arrows, and at the same time ordered the soldiers to assist in the defense on the shore, and he and Zhou Yu personally sat in the big tent of the Chinese army. The reason why Zhou Yu was not asked to go was because Sun Quan didn't want others to know that Zhou Yu had returned.
As Sun Quan's order was handed down, the Jiangdong army on the bank of the river suddenly became lively, and Lu Su soon brought two thousand archers to the place where the drums were most dense, and he did not hesitate to order the archers to release their arrows immediately.
The archers didn't really see anything, but most of the governors let the arrows go, so they just let them go. For a while, in the sound of roaring, arrows rained down, and they all disappeared into the dark night ahead.
Liu Xun's soldiers, listening to the sound of the wind breaking and the sound of the puffy shooting into the straw man, were very nervous at first, and even the drums became much smaller for a while. However, after a while, he saw that the bow and arrow were blocked by the straw man, and there was no possibility of shooting at him. One by one, they became excited again, and said that the lord had a clever plan, so the drum beat again loudly.
Huang Xing saw that the lord's plan was really done, and he was overjoyed, and immediately remembered the lord's previous instructions, and immediately ordered the ships to approach the shore and receive more arrows. At the same time, he ordered the soldiers on the ship to scream in order to confuse the other party.
Lu Su, who was on the shore, first heard the sound of the drums quiet, thinking that the bow and arrow suppression had played a role, and immediately ordered to speed up the release of arrows. Later, he heard the sound of drums, and thought that the enemy had another large force to kill him, so he immediately ordered to speed up the release of the arrows again.
When he heard the screams, Lu Su couldn't help but be overjoyed, and ordered the archers to release their arrows with all their might, and when they won the battle, Liu Xun Jiangdong had to change his character.
Zhou Yu said happily in the Chinese army's tent: "Listening to this scream, I think there must have been a large number of casualties, this time, Liu Xun's calculation of landing at night has failed, and he has also lost his troops, which is very beneficial to us!" ”
Sun Quan thought so. Especially Sun Quan, thinking that his brother Sun Ce was killed, Jiangdong's territory was robbed, and he could only be a turtle with a shrunken head, Sun Quan couldn't help but grit his teeth for a while when he thought of this, I hope that Liu Xun Lao'er is also on one of the ships and deserves to be shot.
At this moment, Lu Su on the riverbank was also smiling, and when he heard the screams of Huang Xing's army, he couldn't help but be even more excited, and shouted in his mouth, "Everyone work hard, don't stop, shoot me quickly, shoot to death." ”
The screams of the enemy were the most beautiful music, and the archers learned that the Governor was yelling not to stop, so they shot desperately, and the soldiers carrying the bows and arrows were as tired as dead dogs. They struggled to carry the arrows, but they were soon relieved because the bows and arrows were gone!
"Grand Duke, the bow and arrows are gone!" The lieutenant hurriedly returned.
Lu Su was taken aback when he heard this, the bow and arrow were gone, and he had one less means to kill the enemy, but fortunately, he had killed and injured the enemy on a large scale, and it was not exhausted in vain. When he saw the heavenly general Fang Liang, he said: "Order the whole army to line up and stand guard, we have shot so many arrows, and Liu Jun is screaming constantly, presumably they must be suffering heavy damage at this moment, and after Liu Xun's remnants of the defeated army will come ashore, we will destroy them in one go." ”
The "if" deputy general thought that after all, the other side could not form a formation by wading in the water, and his own side had a very advantageous position on the shore.
At this time, the deputy general suddenly said to Lu Su: "Governor, there are still 10,000 arrows on the lord's tent, do you want to ask the lord to transfer them?" ”
The bow and arrow were the most advantageous weapons for warfare in ancient times, and there was no army that did not carry a bow and arrow.
So when Lu Su heard the adjutant general's suggestion, he shook his head and said, "This is the last arrow, we have to stay in case of emergency." ”
Although the deputy general wanted to shoot another 10,000 to have a good time, but since the governor shouted to stop, he had to endure it.
As a result, Sun Quan's troops began to assemble on the shore, forming phalanxes one after another, nervously waiting for the impending enemy.
When the clouds cleared, Liu Xun's soldiers saw tens of thousands of Sun Quan's troops waiting on the shore. Unexpectedly, they only had more than 300 people, and they couldn't help but laugh when they played tens of thousands of legions.
There were brave soldiers, who emerged from among the straw men full of arrows, and shouted with a smile: "Hey, enemy brothers on the other side, uncle, I am so polite, do you still have bows and arrows, hurry up and have two more rounds!" ”
Another soldier shouted: "Thank you Sun Jun for releasing the arrows, thank you to the Governor of Dadu for sending the arrows!" ”
"Thank you to the enemy for releasing the arrows, thank you to the Metropolitan Governor for sending the arrows!" For a while, this call came and went.
There are such people in the world!
Sun Quan's soldiers were originally holding weapons, nervously sweating and waiting for a desperate fight, but when they saw the scarecrows full of bows and arrows in the river, they were immediately stunned, "What's the situation!" "For a while, nine out of ten of the Jiangdong Army's brains crashed.
There are still some people who reacted and shouted: "It's broken, it's a trick!" This is the arrow that deceived us. ”
Lu Su, who was about to count the corpses, was suddenly dumbfounded! He couldn't help but scold: "This fucking goddamn dog thief Liu Xun." ”
Sun Quan and Zhou Yu also heard it in the big tent, and the two couldn't help but look at each other.
"Liu Xun, old man, is still so insidious, we have been tricked again!" With Zhou Yu's intelligence, he naturally knew that he had fallen for the trick again, and this strategy was enough to damage.
"Damn Liu Xun, my arrows are all gone!" Sun Quan couldn't help crying and rushed to the shore with a sad face, rolled the saddle and dismounted, looking at the river densely packed with more than 100 boats, all of them were scarecrows full of bows and arrows, he wanted to cry without tears. Don was annoyed. With a gloomy face, he said angrily: "Zijing, if you shoot so much, you're just shooting these straw men!" You won't think much about cumming! ”
Lu Su immediately lowered his head when he heard this, and said honestly: "My subordinates are incompetent, and I am willing to accept the guilt!" But now it's time to send someone after them and recapture the arrows. “
"In that case, don't hurry up and chase after it, hurry up and get on the boat and chase after it, you must kill these people and take the arrows back for me!" Sun Quan couldn't help but exclaim with some annoyance.
So, the soldiers hurried to the ship. However, after all, it was a step too slow, and before they could start the boat, Huang Xing had already commanded the troops to sail to the opposite shore.
"Thanks for sending the arrows!"
The cries kept coming, and Sun Quan, who was known as arrogant, could stand such an insult, and his face was suddenly flushed with anger, and he almost turned his back on it.
……
On the other side of the shore, Liu Xun, who had been waiting for a long time, was waiting for Huang Xing to return with a big victory.
"Lord, General Huang has really returned victorious, and he has returned with the whole ship of arrows!" Chen Pengxing, who was answering on the shore, rushed over and said. Everyone couldn't help but be ecstatic when they heard this, so they respected Liu Xun even more like a god, and they actually thought of such a clever plan.
At this moment, the sky was already bright, and after the sun came out, the last mist also dispersed immediately, and Liu Xun had already seen the ship full of arrows returning. In the joy, I couldn't help but think that in the future, with the spread of the allusion of the straw boat borrowing arrows, my name will also be famous through the ages. Later, it should be synonymous with me Liu Xun to borrow arrows from a grass boat. As for Zhuge Kongming, hey, hey, if you want to use it, you have to find Ben Taishou to learn the arts.
Liu Xun was also very excited when he heard this, but he pretended to be calm and walked towards the shore with a steady pace.
As soon as they reached the shore, they saw more than a hundred small boats full of arrows in the river, and they could hardly believe their eyes, so they hurriedly reached out and rubbed them. Pointing to the boats in the river, he turned around and exclaimed, "My good man, how many arrows there must be!" This Sun Quan won't be lacking in heart. ”
"The Lord is clever!" The generals are very worshipful.
I watched as the soldiers brought bundles of bows and arrows ashore to count. Liu Xun was very interested, with so many arrows, he could save a lot of money. Especially after seeing the arrows that are gradually piling up.
"Haha, you help Huang Xing count and see how many arrows there are." Liu Xun smiled faintly and said incomprehensibly
Half an hour passed, and all the bows and arrows had been packed, stacked together, more than a person high, densely occupying the open space in front of them.
From the beginning of the Battle of Lujiang, due to the fact that all the way to the war was a trick, the ambush was used to attack the enemy, and naturally a large number of arrows were consumed. The extent of the loss of arrows in Liu Xun's army is absolutely unimaginable to others. So after getting these arrows, Huang Xing was very excited, and he didn't care about taking off the armor on his body and came over and said: "The lord is clever, and the Jiangdong Army is really deceived." Now we have won a big victory, and we have now counted all of them, nearly 83,000 in total. Since the Lord used straw man borrowed arrows, most of them were intact. Of these, about 80,000 are in good condition, and only more than 2,000 have problems. ”
Bows and arrows can be recycled continuously, but many of them wear out, the most important of which is that the shaft of the arrow is bent by hitting a hard object when fired vigorously. The wear and tear of this item is self-evident, and an arrow with a curved shaft cannot maintain a stable flight in the air, and therefore cannot accurately hit the enemy. Fortunately, Liu Xun used a scarecrow this time, and all of them were very thick, so the wear and tear of the arrows was not much.
With these arrows, the combat power of his troops will be raised to a higher level. Looking at the people in front of him who were still in the midst of excitement, Liu Xunhao's wail as a teacher could no longer be suppressed, and he couldn't help but say a little pretendedly. "Hahaha, not bad! You should all know it now, what is it for you to study hard every day? Sometimes the energy of wisdom is endless, and when you have nothing to do in the future, drink less and read more. ”
The generals naturally knew that the bow and arrow were the only single long-range strike force, and its importance was self-evident. Now that their lord has such a harvest with a casual idea, everyone can't help but respect Liu Xun's words like a god.
"The last general understands the painstaking work of the lord, and he must study hard to keep up with the pace of the lord."
