The torrential rain poured down in the middle of the afternoon.

Bean-sized raindrops washed over the battlefield, and they couldn't dissipate the thick smell of blood that hung over the battlefield.

An hour ago, the Chu army on the south bank launched a fierce attack on the Daji soldiers on the north bank.

Tens of thousands of bandits and the Chu army launched an attack on the northern shore without their lives.

The Qingshui River was instantly stained red with blood, and mountains of corpses piled down the rushing and roaring river.

In the end, the Chu army paid a heavy price of thousands of people, but it still ended in a crushing defeat.

But they didn't have a little success, at least the pontoon bridge on the river was half completed, and they were about to run into the opposite side.

This time, the river god did not get angry again, and the pontoon bridge was not destroyed.

On the north bank of the Qingshui River, Chen Chao did not move!

A blood-dripping knife was stuck at his feet, and with his hands behind his back, he quietly watched the movement of enemy troops on the south bank.

After experiencing several wars before and after, the Chen Dynasty has cultivated a calm heart!

Before he came, he was an abominable traitor in the court.

He thought he was decisive enough!

But after he came, every arrangement he made decided the life and death of thousands or even tens of thousands.

He was almost numb inside.

Taught him a lot on the battlefield!

But he had to.

If you don't do it, it's the people around you who die.

"Let's go back, it's too dangerous here, our goal has been achieved, and the other party has taken the bait." Meng Changge stood beside Chen Chao and looked at him and persuaded kindly.

The Chen Dynasty's act of killing the captives succeeded in angering the Chu army, and the other party came to attack.

Chen Chao waved his hand, indicating that he would not leave.

He sighed and said:

"I'm wondering if this fight should go any faster."

Meng Changge raised his eyebrows sharply and stopped Chen Chao, "You still want to kill the Chu army prisoners?" Enough, you've killed enough. ”

Chen Chao said lightly: "It's not enough, the other party's attack is not fierce enough, I must catch Chu Yan alive before Chu Kang orders to stop the Chu army." ”

After speaking, Chen Chao lifted the long knife and walked a few steps quickly.

came to the front of a Chu army prisoner who was kneeling on the ground and his unkempt hair was scattered, and he slashed down again.

The head rolled to Meng Changge's feet.

Meng Changge's heart was shocked.

She wanted to stop it, but when she saw the appearance of the head on the ground, she looked at Chen Chao in surprise.

Chen Chao held the knife and grinned: "Changge, do you want to try it?" ”

Meng Changge was unusual, and stepped forward to take his knife: "It's okay." ”

Before slashing people, Meng Changge shook the blood stains on the knife and sighed faintly:

"I'm afraid that the hearts and eyes of everyone in the world are combined, and there are not as many as you alone."

"I'll just think you're complimenting me."

Hearing this, Meng Changge no longer paid attention to Chen Chao and cut it down with a knife.

The dummy made of wooden stakes, so far away, that the Chu army could not see it clearly, and would only mistakenly think that Chen Chao had really killed the prisoner.

The scene of Meng Changge cutting people was discovered by the generals of the Chu army who were always paying attention on the other side, and they were all extremely angry, and they ordered angrily:

"Attack me!"

"All the troops are attacking!"

"Leave not a single one!"

"Kill them all, kill them all!"

With the order issued by the generals of the Chu army, tens of thousands of bandits and the Chu army began a new round of attacks, and they quickly set up pontoon bridges under the rain of arrows.

Soon, the pontoon bridge was erected.

The Chen dynasty did not make every effort to prevent the Chu army from erecting pontoon bridges.

He's going to seduce the enemy.

In this way, he could complete his plan to capture Chu Yan alive.

Chu Yan stood on the shore, drew his golden sword, and roared angrily:

"Behead the enemy, the bounty is 10,000 taels, and you will be promoted to three levels in a row!"

"Rush me! Kill them all! ”

"Kill them all!"

The bandits and the Chu army shouted in unison.

Soon, under the deliberate release of the Chen Dynasty, a part of the Chu army and the bandit vanguard reached the north bank of the Qingshui River.

The generals of the Chu army and Chu Yan stood on the south bank of the Qingshui River, commanding the follow-up army to pass quickly, and it was bound to kill this group of Daji soldiers without leaving a piece of armor.

"On the other side, why did the defense relax so much for a while?"

General Chu pointed to the other side, frowned, and asked puzzledly.

"Obviously, our army's offensive is too strong, and the opposite side can't bear it, don't let the generals grow their morale and destroy their prestige!" Chu Yan straightened his waist and squinted his eyes in dissatisfaction.

The generals of the Chu army did not reply, but looked at each other.

and Chu Yan's stunned explanation, it is completely unclear.

He won't listen, he'll just talk in vain.

Generally speaking, in an offensive and defensive battle like this, there is also a river in between, and the defending side has a natural advantage.

If nothing else, it is impossible for the attacking side to reach the other side so smoothly.

Don't......

Could it be that Pingyang Valley, which was surrounded by Daji, began to counterattack outward?

Only this explains.

Pingyang Valley counterattacked outward, and the Daji defenders here had to allocate a part of their forces to block it.

Therefore, the defense here is much weaker.

Thinking of this, the generals of the Chu army seemed to see the dawn of victory.

They immediately ordered: "Go, order the defenders of Pingyang Valley to counterattack with all their might!" ”

"Yes!"

Although Pingyang Valley is now surrounded, it is not too difficult to convey military orders to them.

"Report! General, there is an abnormal movement in the direction of Pingyang Valley, and the two lieutenants Xu and Li are almost unable to bear it. ”

Just as the Chen Dynasty was about to cut off the head of a Chu prisoner again, a familiar general suddenly ran behind him.

Chen Chao frowned and thought about it, and quickly remembered who this person was.

seems to be surnamed Wu, the chief general of a city on the northern front.

At that time, the victorious army swept away the leaves with the autumn wind to solve the army of bandits on the northern front, and his city was almost broken by the bandits.

"Pingyang Valley?" Chen Chao muttered.

"Yes, General! The situation is urgent, and the general is asked to allocate manpower to support Pingyang Valley! ”

"Hmm......" Chen Chao thought for a while, looked at him and said, "Then you take 10,000 horses and horses to support Pingyang Valley!" Make no mistake! ”

At present, the Chen Dynasty has 60,000 horses in its hands.

Half of them surrounded Pingyang Valley, led by Xu Biao and Li Sandao, and the six or seven thousand cavalry were taken away by Murong Chong, and now it is estimated that they are in place, in the rear of the Chu army.

At present, another 10,000 horses are divided, and on the north bank of the Qingshui River, Chen Chao has less than 15,000 troops around him.

But fortunately, the Chu army and bandits could only pass through a very narrow pontoon bridge, and the pressure on the defense was not great at present.

"Order!"

After the general surnamed Wu left with a large group of men and horses, Meng Changge spoke in a timely manner, "You obviously know that Xu Biao and Li Sandao can hold it, why do you have to divide 10,000 horses?" ”

Chen Chao smiled, "You don't understand, you can't bear the wolf with the child." ”

"Today, I not only want to catch Chu Yan, but also find out some wolf cubs."

"Wolf cubs?"

Meng Changge was puzzled.

Chen Chao explained: "You don't know, before I joined the army, someone in the capital wanted to kill me, and now, his hands are stretched out to the battlefield in Yunzhou. ”

"Your enemy?"

"Yes."

Chen Chao looked at the departing general surnamed Wu, and then glanced at the several generals of Daji who were currently commanding the battle on the battlefield, "Perhaps, there is one here." ”

This is also the reason why the Chen Dynasty does not reuse other generals.
