Chapter 70: The Bloody Battle of Chukou City

Xiao Qiao's heart was full of confusion and confusion, but he didn't know how to straighten it out. Should she be like this, should she dance? What should be done? She doesn't know it herself, it's just a habit she has developed since she was a child, and once she starts dancing, she can stay focused and forget a lot of things.

It's just that I'm used to it, and in the past few days, I finally saw the sky outside the cage.

Let's dance together.

Cao Wu thought for a while and said, "Is it time for the performance program?" So how about I play a five-bird play? ”

Xiao Qiao tilted his head, not knowing what Cao Wu wanted to do.

"Just match my movements."

Nothing was said all night.

The next day, Cao Wu said goodbye to Xiahou Yuan, Hua Tuo, and Xiao Qiao, and rode the little red horse alone with satisfaction, and re-embarked on the road to the west.

He still has to be there for this kind of thing like a decisive battle.

……

"Stealing?"

Zhou Yu shook his head.

Lu Meng said: "Now the Cao army has blocked the river on the west side of the Yangtze River, and our army has blocked the east side. It is impossible to mobilize troops on a large scale, but General Gan Xingba still has a lot of clippers there, and if he is recruited back and pretends to be a businessman, he can avoid the blockade of Cao's army and go upstream to make some arrangements. ”

Lu Xun said: "Pretending to be a businessman is indeed a good strategy, but we don't know how many defenders there are in Jiangling." ”

Pang Tong said: "Maybe you don't have to attack Jiangling, just cut off the supply of Cao's army!" ”

In this era, the supply of goods was not smooth, and in order to ensure supplies, when the two armies were fighting, they would usually let merchants cross the border. The northern conquest has been going on for many years, but there has never been a sudden attack on the merchants who came to trade in the city, so LΓΌ Meng had this plan.

However, Zhou Yu said: "Pretending to be a businessman? Ziming, the soldier is treacherous, yes. But for the general, you have to focus on the overall situation! You can't break the most basic rules, once you do such a thing as a disguised businessman, you will bring a thousand years of bad heads! This plan is absolutely impossible! ”

The three of them were dissatisfied, but they were not convinced.

Zhou Yu knew what they were thinking, and said indifferently: "I already have a plan to defeat the Cao thief." I sent Xingba to harass Zhao Yan's troops, which can be regarded as somewhat effective, but now that Zhao Yan is already attacking Chukou, Xingba should indeed come back. When General Gongfu escorted Mrs. Sun to arrive, and when the time came, these three generals took the lead, all three of them had the courage of ten thousand people, and they were good at water warfare, so they would definitely be able to win for a while. ”

Lu Meng smiled bitterly: "I'm afraid that Xingba and Gongji still have disputes, and it is not suitable to be together." ”

Gan Ning used to be under Liu Biao, Ling Tong's father Ling Cao died at the hands of Liu Biao's general Huang Zu, it is said that Gan Ning also participated in that battle, somehow, Ling Tong decided that Gan Ning was the murderer of his father, and the two could hardly meet, as long as they met, they could break the entire street.

Zhou Yu smiled: "I'm here." ”

Lu Meng was at ease, no matter what, as long as Zhou Yu was there, he could suppress these generals.

Next, Zhou Yu analyzed his strategy for the three of them in detail, that is, he would never fight a decisive battle with the Cao army, but rely on the Yangtze River, maneuver with the enemy, concentrate superior forces, and keep eating the Cao army.

This is a dignified duel, and the three listeners are all scheming people, but listening to Zhou Yu's tired and self-fighting gameplay, they still feel shocked.

It's just because in this world, there is only one Zhou Yu who can complete this kind of warfare.

Because only he can command Ruoding, raise the banner, and all the armies work together, like an arm. And only he, with his prestige in the navy and years of training, can accomplish all this.

As long as there is a boat, he can pull infinitely on the river, and there is no decisive battle, but there are battlefields everywhere.

At that time, I am afraid that the blood will stain the Yangtze River, and there will be room for pulling within a hundred miles.

For the upcoming series of battles, they rested in place for a day, and the captured Xiahou Yuan ships were also loaded one by one.

Early the next morning, they waited for Da Qiao and Huang Gai, who was escorting her, but there was no trace of Gan Ning.

The four leaders discussed, no longer waiting, and fought with Cao Jun once before talking.

……

Gan Ning snorted and spit out a tooth.

He is only thirty years old this year, but he has already experienced many fierce battles, but those previous battles are really pediatric compared to these few days.

A few days ago, Zhao Yan promoted his account, discussed with the commander of the Seventh Army, and decided to abandon Anlu and only attack Chukou.

And in the mouth, there are only Zhang Fei and 3,000 defenders.

Liu Bei's order was to stop it, retreat if he couldn't beat it, and fight Zhao Yan to the death in Xiakou.

However, what kind of character is Zhang Fei, how could he accept the order to escape, he decided to use 3,000 people to fight against Zhao Yan's 70,000 people.

Like Shiyang, the city is also a rear city that Huang Zu did not operate much, and there are also waterways, it is surrounded by land on three sides and Han water on one side.

Zhao Yan's Seventh Army blocked the water of the small siege of the city, and the Seventh Army attacked the city repeatedly, while Zhang Fei desperately held on and defended it for several days, and today it was Zhu Lingbu who was attacking the city.

Zhu Lingyuan was a general under Yuan Shao, a general who fought on the battlefield, and he adhered to the ancient precept of encircling three missing one, and surrounded Zhang Fei on three sides of the city, but left the side of Hanshui.

Gan Ning carried out Zhou Yu's secret mission, with a total of 100 fast boats, about 1,000 soldiers, and 30 fast horses on board.

In the past few days, in order to entangle with the Seventh Army, most of his people have lost most of them, but these are the elites of his subordinates, and they have long had the consciousness of going to the death to kill the enemy on this trip, so they actually maintained a formation and came to the lower reaches of the Han River.

Now that the enemy army has broken through Shiyang and entered the stage of positional warfare, according to the established strategy, it is time for him to go.

However, Gan Ning, who was supposed to return to the Yangtze River from the Han River, saw Zhang Fei standing at the head of the city on the river, and Zhu Lingbu was beaten and couldn't get on the city wall, and a heroic spirit arose in his heart.

He didn't know which tendon was not right, but he rose up with courage, and only ordered the soldiers who had no horses to leave by boat, and he himself led thirty cavalry to land and prepare to join the battle.

In order to cover the departure of his naval army, he did not choose to enter the city from the water gate, but rode a horse from the land, and the thirty cavalry forcibly killed Zhu Lingbu from outside the city and went straight to the city gate.

Zhang Fei saw that reinforcements had arrived at the head of the city, and he was about to go out of the city to greet him, but he was caught by the deputy general Fu Shiren and persuaded: "The general can't!" ”

Zhang Fei sighed, broke free, and said indignantly: "How can we watch the reinforcements not enter the city? ”

While speaking, Zhu Ling took two big axes and stopped Gan Ning at once.

Gan Ning held two halberds in his hand and collided with the two axes.

"Dangdang" twice, Zhu Ling tried his best, but was still suppressed by Gan Ning.

Twenty rounds later, Zhu Ling fought with a halberd and slapped Gan Ning in the face, Gan Ning dodged part of the force, and still lost a tooth.

He turned around and struck again, Zhu Ling was stabbed off his horse on the spot, and was rescued by his soldiers.

Gan Ning turned around and fought again, and found that of his thirty cavalry, only twenty were dead, and he was surrounded by the enemy.

The city gate not far in front of him was unexpectedly impossible to pass.

At the head of the city, there are still countless soldiers of the Zhu Ling Department falling, human lives are like grass, and the battlefield is like a copper furnace.

Gan Ning didn't know if he could rush to the city, he stood up and stood up, straightened the helmet that was beaten crooked just now, and shouted: "I am Jiangdong Gan Xingba!" Who's going to fight me! ”

He was answered by the spears of foot soldiers, but no cavalry dared to come near him.

"Good man!"

Zhang Fei had already received the news of the alliance between Sun and Liu, and now he heard that the general below was the Jiangdong Army, and the allies were trapped, how could he continue to watch from the sidelines?

He went directly down from the city tower, and rushed out of the city gate with one person and one horse to save Gan Ning.

Looking at the open city gate, Zhao Yan, who was supervising the battle in the distance, had his eyes lit up, and immediately gave an order, ordering Feng Kai's troops to attack the city.

Feng Kai is a soldier who has been avoiding battles along the way, and his subordinates have almost no losses, the least deaths, and the least credit.

After all, the city is not big, it is impossible for 70,000 people to go at the same time, and 10,000 people are a little reluctant to attack the city, Feng Kai thought that it would not be his turn today.

Who would have thought that it would be so difficult for Zhu Lingbu to kill, and he couldn't take any of the three city gates.

Now that a city gate has been opened, it is the best opportunity, Feng Kai was named, and he had to get on the horse and go out with his full 10,000-person regiment.

He didn't know that the reason why Zhao Yan let him go was precisely because his 10,000 people had never fought much, so he waited for work.

Fu Shiren saw that the other party had sent a new force over, only to feel that the world was spinning, everything was over, and he had the heart to surrender.

He kept shouting at the head of the city: "General Zhang, come back quickly!" Come back! ”

However, Zhang Fei held a snake spear, crisscrossing the enemy army, no one could stop him, and the rise of killing, how could he listen to him.

Zhang Fei's fight ensured the safety of the city gate.

Fu Shiren couldn't stop staring at the movement of Feng Kai's new army, afraid that this new force would rush over.

Sure enough, Feng Kai was not a vegetarian character, once he decided to attack, he immediately gathered all the cavalry in his 10,000-strong team, a total of 700 people, and charged towards the city gate at the same time.

"It's over, it's over."

Fu Shiren saw that the enemy's new force was coming like a whirlwind, and immediately ordered to close the city gate, even if Zhang Fei was thrown outside, he couldn't just be breached like this.

He had already planned to close the city and escape along the waterway with his descendants.

At this moment, a puff of smoke and dust suddenly came from the distance.

A big red-faced man, armed with a long knife, rode a red horse to kill.

It was Guan Yu and Guan Yunchang, who had been missing for a long time.

Behind him, there were dozens of cavalry and 3,000 soldiers, and as soon as they came out, they went straight to Feng Kai's rear army.

It turned out that after the defeat of Shiyang, Guan Yu fled north, and finally escaped the pursuit of Zhang He and Zhang Liao after several tosses, and returned to Anlu City the day before yesterday.

He waited in Anlu for a day, but he didn't see Zhao Yan attacking, guessing that Zhao Yan planned to give up Anlu.

When the sentries found out about the battle in Chukou, he simply gave up Anlu and directly led all the soldiers in Anlu City to support Chukou.

Guan Yu read "Zuo's Spring and Autumn Period" at night, and knew that the eight characters in it, "auxiliary cars depend on each other, lips and teeth are cold", how could he not come to save his brother!

Feng Kai's cavalry was rushing to the city gate, and he was outflanked by others, and he was suddenly shocked, and he couldn't care about the city gate, and the cavalry turned to meet the red-faced general.

Guan Yu clamped the red rabbit horse, and the arrow was like an arrow to kill Feng Kai.

Feng Kai greeted him with a spear in his hand.

The next moment, just listening to the "poof", Feng Kai's immediately left only a headless corpse, convulsing and bleeding, but the head did not know where to go.

Guan Yu snorted coldly: "It's just a person who sells the first mark." ”

For a moment, the entire battlefield seemed to stand still, and everyone stared blankly at this scene.

Fu Shiren hurriedly ordered the soldiers to lift the city gate again.

Zhao Yan's eyes widened, after Lu Zhao and Zhu Ling were injured, one of the generals in the Seventh Army died!

Gan Ning and Zhang Fei laughed, and the two came together to welcome Guan Yu into the city.

Zhang Liao and Zhang He watched from a distance, glanced at each other, and both saw the helplessness in each other's eyes.

If the two of them could let go of their hands and feet, why would this battle be like this.

However, Zhao Yan is only an overseer after all, a coordinating figure, not the leader of the fake festival, and everything has to be discussed by everyone.

is just a Shiyang, blocking the clerk for ten days.

This mouth, and they have to block their seventh army, no, the sixth army, how long?

……

When the bloody battle of Chukou was in full swing, Cheng Pu's army had already seen the head of Hefei City.

And Zhou Yu's less than 20,000 people finally met the main force of Cao's army, an army of 800,000 on the Yangtze River.

However, to Zhou Yu's surprise, Cao Jun only had one ship to fight.

A giant battleship that was much larger than a building ship.

The Wuya battleship finally reached the battlefield of the Yangtze River.

Cao Ah Si stood on top of the big ship and said excitedly: "With a small sampan like you, how many comes, my Beifu has collected it all!" ”
