Chapter 220: The Second Battle of Bai Tengjiang
On the east bank of the Baiteng River, Cao Wu's handsome flag was hung high, Cao Wu himself got off the little red horse, and the big horse sat on a small slope.
Diao Chan nervously accompanied him, worried: "Cao Lang, this time is too risky, all the elites are on the west bank, and the Cangwu soldiers are on the east bank, what if Zhou Zhou Yu chooses to attack the east bank?" β
Cao Wu smiled and said, "Mountain people have their own tricks. β
Diao Chan was not relieved by his gag, but was even more worried: "Zhuge Kongming and Lu Boyan are all talents who have passed through the heavens and latitudes, and they are not around, how can this be good." β
Cao Wu patted his shoulder, and Diao Chan came over to pinch his shoulder with resentment.
Cao Wu grabbed a piece of grass on the ground and took a bite, in Lingnan in April, the grass was already quite wet, Cao Wu spit it out, and said with a smile: "Zhou Yu will not choose the weak side." β
Diao Chan frowned and wanted to ask, but Cao Wu had already continued to speak: "He has too much appetite, and he can't look down on these strawberry soldiers on the east coast." β
"Strawberry Soldiers...... What are strawberries? β
Diao Chan was depressed and his general said something that people didn't understand, and when he thought about the meaning of these three words, the Jiangdong Army that rushed here had changed.
Those ships, as Cao Wu said, went to the west coast.
This time, the Jiangdong Army no longer concealed it, and one after another big flags were raised in the army, Zhu Zhi, Huang Gai, Zhou Tai, Xu Sheng, Pan Zhang, Lu Fan, Sun Jiao, ......
Some of them were going downstream, some were upstream, and some of them suddenly appeared out of nowhere on the west bank, and it was clear that all the generals were well prepared to lay an ambush in advance.
The half-crossing attack became the clarion call for the two sides to start a decisive battle, and these good generals of the river table all killed the Cao army on the west bank from the ambush.
In Jiangdong, only one person can command so many famous generals like an arm, Cheng Pu can't, Sun Quan can't do it, and the "Zhou" flag hanging high is the real master of Jiangdong's military.
Cao Wu sat on the dirt slope, squinted at the Jiangdong army that suddenly appeared all over the mountains, and chuckled: "Zhou Yu, you really have a great appetite. β
β¦β¦
Zhang Liao and Lu Xun walked side by side.
Lu Xun is only a retainer of the Beifu, but Zhang Liao, a famous general who was named a marquis for his military exploits, did not dare to snub the young man next to him, it is really these days, the Beifu has given him too many shocks, and Lu Xun himself has also shown extremely strong military ability many times.
This scholar, who is not very famous in Jiangdong, seems to be a natural expert in commanding the army, and his knowledge and insight make Zhang Liao, a general who has been killed for a long time, feel admired.
The last person who made Zhang Liao feel this way was Zhuge Liang, who commanded the Battle of Chibi, and happened to be a retainer of Beifu.
Zhang Liao looked at the Jiangdong army rushing everywhere, shook his head, and sighed: "If it weren't for the advance arrangement of the Beifu general, we would have encountered so many enemy troops in a hurry when we were halfway through, I'm afraid it would be difficult to fight." β
He didn't say he was going to lose, because he was just as confident in himself.
Lu Xun looked a little nervous, and said with a wry smile: "After all, it was the bureau set up by the general of Beifu himself." The general claims that he doesn't know how to arrange troops every day, but he always has a strange strategy, which is admirable. β
Zhang Liao nodded and said leisurely: "Bo Yan, how to fight this battle?" β
Lu Xun's eyes were finally firm, and he looked at the banner of the word "Zhou" in the Jiangdong Army.
Half a year ago, he was studying with that man, and now, he has a new learning partner.
He never doubted that Zhou Yu would treat Cao Wu as an extremely important opponent, but after staying by Cao Wu's side for so long, he understood that Cao Wu had never taken a fancy to Zhou Yu at all.
General Beifu, what he thinks about every day is something farther away.
Lu Xun raised his right hand.
He has a scepter in his hand.
It was not good-looking, nor majestic, but when it was taken out, Zhang Liao bowed his head, and the surrounding generals bowed their heads.
Cao Wunan came to Jiaozhou to lead the generals, nominally relying on this scepter.
The Scepter of the Son of Heaven!
The word "temperance" is the best illustration of this scepter.
Since General Beifu trusted him enough, he couldn't let General Beifu down.
He rode his horse and galloped a few steps, so that all the generals around him could see what he was holding.
In fact, those generals had already been instructed by Cao Wu to obey Lu Xun's orders.
Lu Xun commanded them, relying on the scepter, but Cao Wu was not, Cao Wu already had enough prestige to convince them.
"The generals will obey!"
Lu Xun raised the scepter high.
The generals are gearing up. After crossing the river, they had already secretly prepared their defenses, just waiting for the Jiangdong army to attack.
The generals said in unison: "Wow! β
"Dangkou General Zhang Liao, Yu Zhuzhi, Sun Jiao!"
Because he was familiar with the names of the generals and lieutenants of the Jiangdong Army, he directly said the names, Zhu Zhi and Sun Jiao attacked from the north and were resisted by Zhang Liao.
"General Pingkou Xu Huang, Captain Huang Zhong, Yu Huang Gai, Zhou Tai!"
These two people came from the river, and Xu Huang and Huang Zhong were ordered to deal with them.
"Capture the general Li Dian, the partial general Liu Xian, the imperial Pan Zhang, Lu Fan!"
Pan Zhang and LΓΌ Fan attacked from the south and handed them over to Li Dian and Liu Xian, the son of Lingling Taishou Liu Du.
After the three armies were arranged, only Xu Sheng, who came from the west, was left to resist, and the generals in front of Lu Xun were only Cao Xiu and Xing Daorong.
Lu Xun glanced at Cao Xiu, who was eager to try, and finally set his eyes on Xing Daorong.
Cao Xiu's tiger and leopard ride is Lu Xun's biggest hole card and cannot be used easily.
And Xing Daorong, Lu Xun remembered what Cao Wu had said to him, and he knew it in his heart, so he said: "Lingling partial general Xing Daorong, Yu Xu Sheng!" β
Xing Daorong was overjoyed and happily took the order.
Waiting for the generals to leave one after another, Lu Xun held a scepter in his hand and faced the river.
He held the scepter in his hand, and he had no intention of putting it down until the war was over.
On the other side of the river, Cao Wu saw Lu Xun and bowed slightly at him.
The Bai Teng River is far less wide than the Yangtze River, but across the river, it is still impossible to see the expression clearly, and Cao Wu can only see that the scepter in Lu Xun's hand has not fallen.
Cao Wu sat on the dirt slope, but it was a pity that there was no wine glass in his hand, otherwise he could wish Lu Xun from afar.
He's already got everything in place, just waiting for the other side to hit him headfirst.
At least for now, Zhou Yu is moving forward according to his script.
In the history of the times he experienced, seven hundred years later, the Southern Han Kingdom was defeated at the Baiteng River, hating Jiaozhou, and a few decades later, Zhao Laoer's army was defeated again on the Baiteng River, declaring that the land of Jiaozhi no longer belonged to the Central Plains Dynasty.
And the starting point of all this is that after Sun Quan mastered Jiaozhou, Jiaozhi became an independent state.
Now, history has returned to the starting point, to the point where Cao has no control.
Cao Wu patted the mound on which he was sitting, this land will be called Vietnam in later generations?
does not exist, in this battle, he will defeat Zhou Yu sent by Sun Quan on this Baiteng River, and never suffer in the future.
In the history he is now experiencing, there is no need for the name Vietnam.
Jiaozhi is Jiaozhi, which is the Jiaozhou of the Central Plains Dynasty.
He had to change the history of this place.
