Chapter 226: The Eighth Battle of Bai Tengjiang
Among the many generals in Jiangdong, Xu Sheng is not the outstanding one, he is neither as sharp as Gan Ning and Ling Tong, nor as deep and introverted as Dong Xi and Chen Zhi. He's a well-balanced guy in every way.
The troops he led were the only troops in the half-crossing attack that were composed entirely of the Jiangdong Army.
Facing Xing Daorong, who rushed towards him from behind the self-reported home, Xu Sheng just sneered.
More than ten cavalrymen charged with him, and when they got close, they began to besiege Xing Daorong without saying a word.
Xing Daorong is not as good as Yang Ling, he is really capable, his karma is not weak, he rushed over when he saw the enemy general, and he had the idea of fighting one-on-one with the enemy general, which was a normal thing in Jingnan.
He didn't expect Xu Sheng to ignore the rules and send people to besiege him.
Xu Sheng and Xing Daorong exchanged horses, and the two of them made three moves, Xing Daorong obviously had a slight upper hand, but there was an extra wound on his body.
It was cut by the cavalry that followed Xu Sheng.
Xing Daorong returned to his horse angrily and fought Xu Sheng again, but he found that there were more cavalry around Xu Sheng.
"That old thief, why don't you dare to fight grandpa alone?"
Xing Daorong raised his weapon and went straight to Xu Sheng, but Xu Sheng didn't talk to him, but still besieged.
More and more cavalry surrounded him, and Xing Daorong's side became fewer and fewer.
Xing Daorong said hurriedly while killing: "How can you not talk about martial arts?"
But Xu Sheng didn't just talk about martial arts, he didn't even talk much at all.
Xu Sheng didn't talk about martial arts, he didn't even talk about reason, and the besieging soldiers used both swords and guns, and slashed at Xing Daorong at once.
Xing Daorong glared, and was hacked to death with a knife like this, and finally didn't even say a decent word.
The cavalry that followed him at the forefront were all dead, and the remaining foot soldiers immediately retreated when they saw that the master was dead.
Xu Sheng was overjoyed and immediately commanded his soldiers to cover up the past.
As long as he broke through Xing Daorong's army, he could reach directly in front of the main general of the Cao army.
β¦β¦
On the river, Zhou Yu sat in front of the cabin, silently watching the situation in front of him.
Of the Cao troops on all sides, only Xing Daorong retreated.
Sun Jiao died, the Jiangdong Army on the northern front was defeated, and on the southern front, Pan Zhang, LΓΌ Fan and the enemy general Li Dian held each other, and Li Dian led the army to counterattack, and it seemed that he still occupied the top. On the eastern front, Huang Gai and Gan Ning were trying to find a way to press the Cao army on the shore, and they were still in a stalemate.
When Sun Jiao died, Zhou Yu didn't blink his eyelids, as if the rout of the army along the way was just the chess pieces on the chessboard being eaten.
When the three fronts were in a bitter battle, Zhou Yu just sneered, he was like a high-ranking chess player, and the death of those soldiers was not as attractive as a chess piece.
But when Xing Daorong died, his expression finally turned into a trance.
"It's ......"
He suddenly stood up.
"It's not surprising to take advantage of the general's advantage and defeat my men in batches."
Zhou Yu muttered to himself.
In order to train troops, Jiangdong fought Jingzhou Huangzu for seven years, although Jiangdong has many talents, but they have not fought large-scale battles, compared to the northern generals who are fighting every day, they need to grow too much.
The enemy's main general saw through this situation and used the general's personal ability to gain the opportunity this time, Zhang Liao, Li Dian and other famous generals, compared with Pan Zhang, Lu Fan and other children, and Zhu Ran, an old and serious person, are too much stronger.
This must be because he knows the details of his Jiangdong Army so that he can set up such a formation.
When Xing Daorong died, Zhou Yu was even more determined in his thoughts.
"Bo Yan, are you on the other side?"
Zhou Yu frowned, watching Xu Sheng lead the army to cover up and kill Xing Daorong's troops, but there was no trace of joy.
He didn't know what Lu Xun had experienced, he actually defected to the enemy camp, but he knew Lu Xun's ability, in addition to him in Jiangdong, the most far-sighted military person was Lu Xun, and over time, Lu Xun might even be stronger than him.
Such a person was actually subdued by Cao Wu?
Zhou Yu Huo Ran turned around, and across the shore, he seemed to see Cao Wujiao sitting on the hillside, biting the grass roots.
This is Cao Cao's younger brother, who everyone says is a gentleman, and he is not a waste wood at all, and his ability has exceeded Zhou Yu's imagination again and again.
"Xu Sheng ventured."
Zhou Yu sighed, and the expression on his face finally couldn't be calmer anymore.
β¦β¦
"Hooked."
Cao Wu sighed leisurely.
Although there are many rats in Jiangdong, there are also many talents, but fortunately, the times did not give them room to grow up, otherwise this battle is really difficult to fight.
Zhou Yu regards the war as a game of chess, but Cao Wu feels that it is more like playing cards, he has a lot of good cards in his hand, but when the good cards are exhausted, after the good cards are played, Xing Daorong will appear.
In his admonition to Lu Xun, he clearly mentioned Xing Daorong's courage and lack of strategy, and Lu Xun directly took advantage of this.
Letting Xing Daorong take charge alone was a strategy discussed by Cao Wu and Lu Xun.
And Lu Xun, as the coach of the West Coast, has already planned everything.
Sure enough, the charging Xu Shengbu quickly covered and killed the soldiers of Xing Daorong's department and went straight to the commander of the Cao army.
Xu Sheng believed that since the Cao army was in a hurry to fight after the half-crossing, as long as Xing Daorong's pass passed, then it would be easy to kill the main force of the Cao army.
Because of the pursuit of Xing Daorong's department, his team was very long, but he was still able to control it, and he felt that he was not chaotic
But when he rushed to the front of Coach Cao Jun, he was surprised to find that he couldn't get any closer.
Commander Cao Jun had already built simple fortifications here.
"Just on my side?"
Xu Sheng was a little dazed, it didn't take long from the time they ambushed the soldiers to the time he killed Xing Daorong and rushed here. Normally, Cao's army was in a hurry, and when they saw the ambush coming, they didn't know which side would be the enemy, and they would have to face the enemy rushing from all directions, so they could only build fortifications on all sides, but there was not enough time to do so.
However, the opposing coach seems to have a problem with his brain, and from the beginning he used all his energy on his own side, and the fortifications that should have been built on all sides, such as the rejection of horses and wooden villages, were only repaired on his side.
"Is it because Xing Daorong is too unconfident?"
Xu Sheng was also a long-time veteran of the battle and had already understood that there was something wrong with the situation, so he shouted and asked the soldiers to lift their spirits, pay attention to their precautions, and prepare to attack Cao's army.
Because of his orders, coupled with the well-prepared deterrent power of Cao Jun, there was some commotion among Xu Sheng's army.
Xu Sheng hurriedly prepared to suppress, although he didn't understand the situation, but he thought that as long as he covered up the past and killed the enemy commander, then the battle would be won.
At this moment, a black horse suddenly came out from the side.
It was a frontal array of nearly a thousand cavalry.
The leader is dressed in black armor and has a "Cao" flag behind his back.
"Haw Par ride? All hands on me? β
Xu Sheng woke up suddenly, and immediately realized that he had been calculated.
Xing Daorong's death before was just a way to lure him deeper, and now he is eager to expand the results of the battle, and he is already alone.
"Suffer death, Xu Sheng!"
Cao Xiu shouted coldly, and led the army to collide with Xu Sheng, an army that had messed up the formation due to the pursuit of Xing Daorong's troops.
