Three Kingdoms Eschatology

Chapter 537 Tracking

Facing Cao Cao's questioning, Linjiang's envoy responded calmly and said, "May I ask your majesty, what is the strength of Wei compared with Linjiang?"

Cao Cao said with a sneer, "It's like a tiger compared to a jackal." This mocking response didn't annoy the special envoy Linjiang, and he continued, "As Your Majesty said, the gap between our two countries is so great, if we Fang Beimeng, how can he withstand a blow from Wei Guo. My king will never do such a stupid thing."

A sneer suddenly came from the main hall. It turned out to be Cheng Yu, who deliberately made things difficult: "But you and Feng Yu of the Liang Kingdom will join forces, and it will be a bit difficult for the Wei Kingdom to punish you for the crime of breaking the alliance."

The special envoy of Linjiang bowed his hand to Cao Cao, and continued to say without changing his face: "But my king is known all over the world. How can Uncle Liu Huang, who stands in the world with benevolence and virtue, be with the rebellious thief Feng Yu. This is the case under any circumstances. Impossible..."

Cao Cao raised his hand to stop him and said, "Okay, I believe what you say, go back and tell the king of Linjiang, let him attack Wu from Chaisang without worry. The lonely army will wipe out the remaining soldiers of Sun Quan and Zhou Yu's army."

After Linjiang's special envoy kowtowed and withdrew, Xu You asked Cao Cao, "Your Majesty really believes that after Liu Bei conquered Wu, under what circumstances would he not join forces with Feng Yu?"

Cao Cao laughed loudly and said, "Of course not. Gu knows better than anyone else who Liu Bei is. But no matter what he is, this Jiangdong Gu is sure."

Guo Jia also smiled and said, "Your Majesty is planning to march from Huainan to Jiangdong while we are attacking and killing Sun Quan and Zhou Yu's brigade?"

Cao Cao twirled his long beard, smiled without saying a word, as if he had tacitly agreed to Guo Jia's words.Xu You on the side said with some worry: "But in this case, we have to divide our troops. In terms of strength..."

Cao Cao interrupted him and said, "Although the Wu army has 3 troops, they are obviously not good at fighting with cavalry. Eighty percent of the more than [-] soldiers and horses are infantry. The remaining [-]% ​​of the cavalry are formed by Jiangnan ruffians. Not to mention our elite tiger and leopard cavalry, even if they encounter our ordinary war cavalry, they are no match for them. Therefore, on the Nanyang Plain thousands of miles away, Zhang He’s thousands of war cavalry should be able to wipe them out. What’s more What's more, they are secretly withdrawing troops in batches, we can completely wait for the Wu army to withdraw halfway before launching an action."

Guo Jia also echoed: "Yes, Liu Bei wanted to take advantage of us, but he didn't think that we would deliberately let half of the Wu army go back. When Liu Bei attacked Chaisang from Jiangxia, these Wu troops would definitely be transferred to Yuzhang, Chaisang. Fighting with Liu Bei's army. At the same time, our army assembled in Huainan Shouchun marched southward, plundering the empty Jiangdong hinterland of Wu State. The war cavalry assembled in Nanyang began to wipe out the remaining half of the Wu army."

……

On the banks of the Mian River, Zhou Yu was the only one left in the big tent of the Wu army camp.Sun Quan had returned to the state of Wu with a group of retreating Wu troops a few days ago.

Zhou Yu just got the news that Sun Quan had arrived in Jiangdong safely, which made Zhou Yu feel a little relieved.But it was only a little bit of relief, because he knew that the moment when the troops had withdrawn halfway was the most dangerous moment.He looked out of the tent, and saw that the corona clock had reached noon. This was the time when scouts from all walks of life gathered together to report to him. These scouts not only monitored the movements of the Liang army on the opposite side of Mianshui, but also the Wei army in the north and the army in the south. The movements of the Linjiang army.

Fortunately, except for Wei Jun's large cavalry mobilization from time to time, Linjiang Jun and Liang Jun showed no signs of taking action.

"Report! Report to the Commander-in-Chief, according to the investigation summary of the thirteen groups of scouts in the south, there is no abnormality in the Guan Yu Department of the Linjiang Army."

"Report! Report to the governor, according to the investigation summary of the six groups of scouts from the west, there is no beam army warship on the surface of Mianshui."

"Report! Report to the Commander-in-Chief, according to the investigation summary of the [-]th group of scouts from the north, Wei Jun Zhang Yun's department suddenly abandoned the camp and went east this morning, and then escaped from our scouts' detection vision, and disappeared."

Hearing the last report, Zhou Yu couldn't help trembling in his heart.What he feared happened.

"Not a single rider in the battalion remained?"

"Reporting to the Commander-in-Chief, several of our brothers went into the camp to check, but there was no one in the camp. They completely discarded these camping utensils, for some reason."

Zhou Yu's face turned pale and he said: "That's because they want to speed up the march, so they don't bring any luggage." Then he ordered the left and right: "Go quickly, call all the generals in the army, we must immediately pull out the camp and evacuate to the east."

After a while, Zhou Yu's subordinates and generals were all in the tent.Knowing Zhou Yu's decision to evacuate the entire army, they all asked Zhou Yu, "Captain, aren't we going to retreat in batches? Why do we have to evacuate the entire army now? In addition, the food and grass we have stored are only enough for the entire army for seven days. Not going back home."

"Because the Wei army discovered our actions and planned to attack us, our supply and food team could not come, and they may have been attacked by them now."

……

In a place more than two hundred miles east of the Wu army's camp, countless Wei army warriors galloped back and forth in the wilderness to fight.Those Wu soldiers who were still wearing white uniforms to pay tribute to Sun Ce ran around like a flock of sheep driven by jackals, but they inevitably got stabbed in the end.

The grass in the field is full of corpses with mutilated limbs or even headless bodies, most of which belong to soldiers of the Wu army.Countless columns of thick smoke rose from the burning grain and grass trucks.

On the skyline of the wilderness, there is still an endless cavalry formation, and the leader of this army is Wei general Zhang Yun.He only used more than a thousand tiger and leopard cavalry among the seven thousand war cavalry, and defeated the five thousand Wu army who were escorting the supply of food and grass in just two quarters of an hour.

Looking at the results of the battle in front of him, Zhang He said to himself: "I didn't expect Wu's army to be so weak, it seems that what the king said is true." Then he ordered to the left and right: "The Wu army's food and grass have run out, and they will retreat eastward at any time. Pass on our military order to double the scouts and monitor their marching trajectories. We will wipe out Wu's army in this wilderness."

At this time, Zhou Yu was already on the way to retreat eastward.With his resourcefulness, he knew that Wei Guo would definitely arrange a large number of scouts to monitor his withdrawal.Therefore, he selected the most capable war cavalry from among the cavalry to form a search team, trying to remove the tail that followed Wu's army.

Fifteen or six thousand Wu troops left the camp, like a giant black and white python, meandering again in the wilderness of the Nanyang Plain.Zhou Yu deliberately took detours to get rid of Wei Jun's pursuit.The search team he deployed in the rear army annihilated and killed five Wei army scout rangers in just two days.Of course, they completely relied on their strength to attack and kill these rangers of the Wei army, otherwise they would not be the opponents of the latter.

For several days in a row, Zhang Yun's main force did not bite Zhou Yu, and even completely lost sight of Zhou Yu's army for a few hours.Fortunately, Zhang He's management in Nanyang played a role in his early years. Relying on the reports from the many settlements scattered on the Nanyang Plain, Zhang He finally resumed his pursuit of Zhou Yu.

Chapter 538 Entering the Urn

Tongbai Mountain is a mountain range on the southern edge of the Nanyang Basin, about [-] miles wide. Crossing this mountain range to the south, you will find Jiangxia County, Linjiang Country, which is fertile for thousands of miles and densely covered with water.

At this time, there was a soldier and horse who could not see the end at a glance, and was advancing along the foot of Tongbai Mountain.This is exactly the Wu army led by Zhou Yu. Naturally, they didn't want to cross the Tongbai Mountain for two hundred miles and enter Jiangxia. If they did that, the whole army would be buried in Tongbai Mountain before they could contact Liu Bei's army on the plains of Jiangxia. in the forest.

Zhou Yu's idea is to follow the foot of Tongbai Mountain, go east through Pingshi County and enter Runan.The reason why they walked along the foot of the mountain was to prevent encountering the war cavalry of the State of Wei.Mountainous terrain is more conducive to anti-cavalry operations.The second is that on the edge of the Nanyang Basin, the Wei army has few strongholds for reclamation.It is also convenient for them to get rid of Wei Jun's tracking.

But in fact, just two days ago, fifty miles away in the southeast suburb of Xinye, a Wei army settlement village discovered this Wu army.After getting the news, Zhang Xi's rangers quickly chased after him, and soon found Wu Jun's trace again.

Located behind Zhou Yu's army, the cavalry of the Wu army responsible for removing the tail had been fighting with the ranger scouts of the Wei army for several days, and there was nothing left.They were unaware of Wu Jun's tail who followed up again this time.According to the information reported by the rangers, Zhang Yun had already judged the direction of Wu Jun.

……

Zhou Yu stood on his horse beside the road and looked at the long marching team. A horse appeared in his sight, which was the commanding soldier he was anxiously waiting for.

That ordered the soldiers to gallop closer, and immediately handed over their hands and reported: "I am reporting to the governor, the entrance to Pingshi County is ahead. Our army scouts have repeatedly checked this place, and there is no trace of the enemy. In Pingshi County, there are only a few The old and weak reclamation conscripts are stationed, and there are no standing soldiers of the Wei State! There are no enemy troops stationed in the exit canyon."

Zhou Yu's face showed a rare joy in the past few days, and said: "Okay! Pass on my military order, the whole army will speed up and conquer Pingshi County. In addition, we will garrison an elite army in the entrance canyon to intercept Wei's army."

The Tongbai Mountain Range is a mountain range running from northeast to southwest, not only separating the Nanyang Basin from the Jianghan Plain where Jiangxia County is located, but also separating Runan from Nanyang.However, the Huai River originated from Tongbai Mountain, and opened up a relatively flat valley in the Tongbai Mountain between Runan and Nanyang.

This river valley is narrow at both ends and wide in the middle. The streams flowing down from the surrounding mountains converge into the upstream source of the Huai River, which rushes out from the narrow outlet in the east.Pingshi County is located in this valley.

Zhou Yu's plan was to use a small number of elite soldiers to block the entrance of the western canyon, which is not open to everyone, after entering the valley.Wei Jun's tiger and leopard cavalry can't play an advantage in this terrain.

If Zhang He's thousands of cavalry did not attack the canyon by force, they would have to go north to bypass the Fangcheng gap in the northeast corner of Nanyang Basin and enter Runan to continue chasing Zhou Yu.At that time, Zhou Yu's army had already entered Huainan territory, and it was already very close to Wu territory.

Zhou Yu's calculation was quite subtle, but he knew that he was making a risky gamble that he had to make.Because the Wei army has extremely mobile cavalry, when and where these cavalry appear, it is impossible to use the information obtained by the scouts to judge.

……

The Wu army easily captured Pingshi County without any surprises. In fact, the old and weak Wei soldiers stationed in the city raised the white flag and surrendered when the Wu army first attacked the city.

Afterwards, a force of more than [-] Wu Jun elite infantry began to build a fortification camp in the entrance canyon to the west, preparing to intercept Zhang He's cavalry here.At the same time, they began to manufacture bamboo rafts in large quantities.These bamboo rafts will be used to carry luggage down the Huai River, which can greatly speed up the march.

Wu Jun only stayed in Pingshi County to rest for one night.They built hundreds of bamboo rafts in seven hours.

At dawn, just as the sun was rising, Wu's army marched by land and water to the canyon to the east.Bamboo rafts floated in the water, and people walked in file on the rocky beaches on both sides of the banks, which were less than a few boats wide.

Zhou Yu rode his horse on the river beach, looking up at the steep cliffs on both sides.The flags of Wu Jun sentries could be faintly seen in the lush forests. Zhou Yu had already sent people to investigate this canyon clearly, and set up guards in dangerous places.

"In such a dangerous place, a camp of hundreds of people on the cliff is enough to hold the key point. It's a pity that no one in the Wei country can understand this. It seems that this Yun is not useful." Zhou Yu sighed at this time.

What Zhou Yu didn't know was that Zhang Yun had set up strongholds on the cliffs here and in the entrance canyon to the west, but he was worried that Zhou Yu's scouts would find them, so he demolished them in advance.So everything is for Zhou Yu to enter the pocket of Pingshi County.With a large number of cavalry, Zhang Xi didn't need to set up an ambush in terrain like a canyon, and he could block Zhou Yu's army, which was mainly infantry, in this pocket.

Zhou Yu rode his horse forward all the way, and the front suddenly became clear. He had already stepped out of the canyon, and there was an endless plain in front of him.Zhou Yu is in the middle army, so his exit from the canyon means that at least half of the soldiers have left the canyon.His mood immediately brightened. If he moved forward for more than ten miles, it would prove that he had successfully brought the troops out of danger.

But at this moment, the noise of fighting came from the end of the Wu army, followed by the muffled sounds of summer rushing thunder from three sides.A "low wall" of flying dust appeared on the skyline on three sides.Zhou Yu's heart trembled. What he was worried about happened. Zhang Yun had already dispatched a large number of war cavalry on the Runan Plain.

A few horses galloped towards Zhou Yu, and they yelled as they rode their horses: "Governor, the war cavalry of the Wei army appeared in front, and they are rushing to kill our former troops!" Zhou Yu glanced around again, and what he saw It's not just that Wei Jun appeared in front, but thousands of war cavalry attacked Wu Jun from three sides.Now even if Wu Jun's two legs run faster than the opponent's cavalry, it will not help.The only way to temporarily evade the Wei army is to return to Pingshi County the same way.But once they return to Pingshi County, they may be trapped in it forever.

Directly in front of Wu Jun, two thousand tiger and leopard riders lined up in four rows, rushing straight along the banks of the Huai River.Those Wu army infantry were all overturned by cavalry spears, or were knocked down by war horses, and they were thrown to the ground layer by layer.In the Huai River, the bamboo rafts that had been pulled by soldiers on both sides of the bank drifted downstream uncontrollably.On each of the two wings, three or four thousand war cavalry lined up in a crane wing formation to press down on Wu Jun's side.

Zhou Yu thought to himself, he couldn't wait any longer, otherwise the whole army would be wiped out in the next hour.

He shouted to the left and right: "Pass my military order, the whole army retreats, retreats to the canyon by the same route, and forms a defensive formation in the canyon!"

Chapter 539

The Wu army led by Zhou Yu fled back to the east of Pingshi County in embarrassment, this canyon called Laobiegou.Afterwards, Wu Jun quickly formed a dense spear formation, blocking both sides of the Huai River in the canyon.Zhou Yu looked up at the cliffs on both sides. Fortunately, those sentry positions he had set up in advance had not been evacuated yet.

Outside the canyon, there were intermittent Wu Jun troops fleeing in, but the number was getting smaller and smaller. The corresponding shouts of killing outside the canyon and the sound of horseshoes were getting closer and closer.

At least half of the six or seven thousand soldiers of the Wu army who had marched out of the canyon had now been lost.The noise outside Laobiegou suddenly stopped, turning into a strange silence.

Zhou Yu ordered coldly: "Pass on our military order, and those who re-enter the canyon will be killed, regardless of whether they wear the uniform of our Wu army." The soldiers of the Wu army agreed once in unison.

The muffled sound like thunder in summer sounded again, and this time it was closer to thunder than last time.This is because of the valley echo effect.

The hands of the soldiers holding the guns in the front row of the spear formation were full of sweat. Many of them were facing the impact of the cavalry for the first time, and they were extremely nervous.The crossbowmen in the front and back rows also drew their bows early.

Finally, two long rows of Wei army cavalry appeared on the narrow river pond on both sides of the Huai River.Three riders and one platoon rushed straight to Wu Jun's formation.

When they came within the range of Wu Jun's crossbowmen, Zhou Yu violently swung down his arms hanging in the air.Wu Jun's archers and crossbowmen released their arrows together.

Arrows shot towards the Wei army cavalry like a shower.However, the Wei army's cavalry is arranged vertically in a row of three cavalry, so there are not many war cavalry within the coverage of the arrows.The two cavalry teams on the left and right were shot and killed more than ten people each.According to this efficiency, when Wei Jun's cavalry formation hits the front of Wu Jun's spear formation, only dozens of people were killed or injured by Wei Jun's arrows.

At this moment, a rumbling sound like thunder came from the cliff.Billows of dust rose from time to time between the trees.It was the boulder that Wu Jun on the cliff rolled down towards Laobiegou.Zhou Yu saw with his own eyes that a huge boulder with a diameter of about six feet ran over the Wei army's cavalry formation.The three Wu Jun who were unfortunately run over by it were instantly smashed to pieces, and then the huge stone covered with blood and meat slag fell into the Huai River, splashing several high water jets.

There is more than just this column of water in the Huaihe River, just like a huge hailstone falling from the sky, this section of the Huaihe River is already "a wave"

The Wei army cavalry continued to die because of being hit by these rolling stones, but this Wei army cavalry continued to charge forward without fear of death.

Zhou Yu saw that the spearman at the front seemed flustered and hesitated. He drew out his sword and shouted: "Don't panic, hold your ground, they won't be able to rush! Those who fear the enemy will die!"

With a loud bang, the Wei army cavalry rushing to the front saw that the opponent was not frightened by the cavalry's rushing cavalry. Facing the forest of spear points and spear blades, he became frightened and strangled the reins desperately.However, under the action of inertia, the horse crashed into the forest of guns.Horses and people were instantly turned into hornet's nests.Wu Jun's long spears with their rear ends on the ground were also bent into bows one by one.

Wu Jun's long spear has a characteristic, that is, there is a wide-diameter bracket behind the spear blade, which can prevent the stabbed object from piercing the gun shaft, so that it is convenient for the user to retract the spear.These spearmen of the Wu army chanted and closed their guns together.After the rider and horse of the Wei army lost their support, they collapsed on the ground, and were quickly trampled to pieces by the horses behind.

Amidst the sound of uniform passwords, the spears of Wu Jun's spearmen moved forward and stabbed continuously.Wei Jun's menacing cavalry team lost its momentum as if it had crashed into a mountain of spears and knives.In front of the spear formation, human corpses and horse corpses piled up higher and higher. As a result, the Wei army's war cavalry also lost their speed advantage.The spearmen of the Wu army simply held the spears with both hands and stabbed them repeatedly, instead of putting the back end of the spears on the ground after closing their spears.

When the spearmen of the Wu army fought hard to resist, the black hands with bows and crossbows in the rear and the infantry of the Wu army on the cliff continued to attack the cavalry with arrows, rolling trees and rocks.

Wei Jun finally couldn't hold on any longer. Amidst bursts of yelling, whistling and various orders, they suddenly slowed down and stopped, then turned their horses on the spot and fled out of Laobiegou.In fact, this Wei army only had more than [-] cavalry, and it was just a tentative attack by Zhang He.

Of course, Zhang Xi would not be so stupid as to use cavalry to charge the Wu army's formation in this terrain.As long as he blocked the Laobiegou, he could lock Wu Jun, who was running out of food and grass, inside.Because if there is no accident, the exit of the canyon to the west should be blocked by nearly [-] Wei troops.The [-] Wei army infantry were urgently assembled in Nanyang by Zhang He after he judged the Wu army's marching route.

Although only [-]% of these soldiers and horses are ordinary war cavalry of the Wei army, the rest are reclamation soldiers, and their combat power is very weak.But if they can build an emergency fortification at the exit of the canyon, they can still block the Wu army who is short of food and low in morale.

In the river valley of Pingshi County, after the Wei army's war cavalry stopped attacking, Zhou Yu urgently ordered fortifications to be built in Laobiegou, and then sent scouts to investigate the valley to the west.As expected, at the exit of the canyon on the west side, the Wei army had built ditches and barriers in a short period of time, built a camp, and blocked the retreat.

Zhou Yu's remaining [-] soldiers and horses were thus trapped in the river valley of Pingshi County.But what made Zhou Yu even more distressed was that there was not enough food and grass.

Wu Jun withdrew in a panic, and did not have enough food and grass. He was ambushed by Wei Jun cavalry just now, and almost all the food and grass loaded on the bamboo rafts were lost.The granaries in Pingshi County were almost out of food, and even the population of Pingshi County fled to the surrounding mountains and forests when the Wu army entered the city, and it was impossible to find food for the common people.

At night, amidst the mournful wailing of the wounded soldiers, Zhou Yu tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep. He stayed up all night, his mind churning and thinking like a pot of hot porridge.

At dawn, he finally made a decision to break out to the west, and then seek help from Liang Guofeng Yu.This is not only for himself and these thousands of remnants, but also for the country of Wu.If his predictions are correct, the state of Wu is likely to have been attacked by Liu Bei and Cao Cao at the same time.

He must take these thousands of remnants out as soon as possible, and then support Sun Quan in some way.It is impossible to return eastward from Runan. Even if they can break through the interception of Zhang He's Wei army's cavalry, on the thousands of miles of fertile plains, the main force of the opponent will bite him to death until he chases down the last Wu soldier.

Zhou Yu selected the most elite [-] infantry from the generals, wearing the best armor in the entire army, and then asked them to pack a meal, and personally saw them off with a few jars of good wine found in Ping's city.

But this night, the Wei army in the western canyon turned on the lights and fought at night, and the fortifications and camps were further strengthened.It is not so easy for Wu Jun to rush out.

Chapter 540 Breakthrough to the West

Zhou Yu boarded a rock platform on the cliff, raised his eyes and looked at the defense line of the Wei army's position in the distance.The entire defense line consists of three camps on the left, middle and right, and the distance between the camps does not exceed [-] steps.The three camps are connected by a trench one battle wide, and inside the trench are barriers as high as five feet.There are also crenellated walls made of branch planks on the ramparts.Those Wei soldiers squatted behind the walls or stood behind the barriers to guard the line of defense.

Although these Wei soldiers looked like old and weak soldiers and mobs, their barriers and trenches were quite complete and solid.The entire line of defense blocked the exit of the canyon.It is not easy to break through this line of defense, but Zhou Yu has no other choice.

Zhou Yu glanced down at his own army formation which had already formed an attacking formation, and said in a stern tone: "A certain army is here to attack!" The soldier beside him immediately took out a small apricot flag and pointed it at the Wu army at the foot of the mountain. Waving up.

At the foot of the mountain, the sound of drums and trumpets sounded, and Wu Jun uttered a shout like a mountain roar and a tsunami.The entire army formation began to slowly move out of the canyon.

When Wu Jun's formation was less than a hundred steps away from Wei Jun's defense line, the arrows of the crossbowmen on both sides were densely shuttled in the air, and the sound of single arrows breaking through the air merged into a buzzing sound, shaking the soldiers on both sides. eardrum.

In the Wu army formation, the swordsman and poker players living in the forefront raised their swallowtail shields one after another, forming a shield wall.The soldiers in the back who had shields raised their shields over their heads one after another. Those without shields could only bend down and try to keep their bodies as close as possible to the people in front.Even so, a large number of Wu soldiers fell to the ground amidst the ding-ding-dong-dong arrows shooting into the shield and the tragic screams one after another.

In contrast, Wei Jun's situation is much better.Except for the crossbowman, who occasionally sticks his head out and shoots an arrow when the opponent's incoming arrows are sparse, the rest of the soldiers are hiding well behind the walls and barriers.No matter what direction or trajectory Wu Jun's arrows shoot from, it is impossible for them to fall into the projectile blind area formed by the stacked walls and barriers.

Despite the casualties caused by the arrows, Wu Jun continued to advance tenaciously, and the speed was getting faster and faster.Less than [-] battles away from Wei Jun's defense line, Wu Jun's shield wall suddenly "split" dozens of huge gaps.A large number of soldiers of the Wu army carrying thick wooden planks rushed towards the defense line of the Wei army with shouts.

They set one end of these long reinforced planks on the outer edge of the trench, and the other end rested on the edge of the rampart.Then rush towards the barrier along this springboard.

One group of soldiers from the Wu army had just carried the wooden boards to the edge of the ditch, and before they had erected the springboard, a crossbowman from the Wei army leaned out from behind the wall made of branches and shot an arrow at the Wu soldiers unexpectedly.The crossbow was a heavy crossbow, and it was shot at close range. The arrow pierced through the chest of a Wu army soldier in armor in the front in an instant.At the same time that the Wu army soldier fell to the ground, the springboard also fell to the ground due to the lack of a person to carry it, and it happened to hit a toe of a person, causing him to wail incessantly.

A group of Wu soldiers rushed up from behind, and they hurriedly erected the springboard and were about to build it towards the barrier.Behind the pile of walls, the Wei Army crossbowman loaded another arrow.When he was about to lean out and shoot the opponent another arrow, several spears and spears suddenly drilled out from behind the wall of tree branches, piercing into his body with lightning speed.It turned out that several spearmen of the Wu army also rushed forward, stabbing at the back of the wall with their spears from the last two battles.The same is true of most of the rest of the ramparts, and those Wei soldiers who had been hiding behind the walls were forced to jump off the ramparts one after another.

The other end of the springboard fell heavily on the edge of the barrier, raising a column of dust and smoke.Numerous Wu Jundao players rushed towards the barrier along the springboard.Suddenly, there was a roar of exhaustion from behind the barrier, and seven or eight soldiers of the Wei army poked their heads out from behind the barrier, shouting, stabbing and stabbing each other with knives and guns in their hands.Their hoarse yells were more of fear than of assertiveness.After all, most of these Wei army reclamation soldiers were farmers who had never been on the battlefield.

Several Wu soldiers who rushed to the front fell to the ground with knives and guns. One of them kicked forward at the moment of falling, and fell behind the barrier. When he landed, the ring knife in his hand cut into the neck of a Wei soldier. , cutting off almost his entire head.Seeing this scene, the Wu soldiers in the rear jumped up, jumped over the spear blades that Wei Jun had not had time to retract, and fell to the back of the barrier...

A large number of soldiers of the Wu army also used hundreds of springboards to cross the barrier, and fought with the Wei army into a group.The former are the most elite infantry in the Wu Kingdom, while the latter are farmers who have just joined the reclamation army for a short time. The result can be imagined.

Less than half an hour after the fight, the Wei soldiers behind the barrier began to flee.Some fled backwards, while others fled into the stronghold.The camp is not only protected by ditches and barriers, but also protected by walls more than two battles high.Once the soldiers of the Wu army climbed the barrier, they would face attacks from arrows, spears and spears from the corridors on the top of the wall and the gaps behind the wall.

Some soldiers of the Wei army who ran slowly had just arrived in front of the gate of the village, only to find that the gate of the village was closed and the suspension bridge was pulled up high.Arrows rained down on them and the pursuers behind them.

However, the soldiers of the Wu army had no intention of attacking the camp. After killing the Wei soldiers they were chasing, they retreated beyond the range of the arrows of the Wei army.

Wu Jun, who captured a section of the Wei Army's defense line, built more springboards on the trench barriers, and removed all the stacked walls on the barriers to facilitate the passage of the rear army.

Looking at the army formation heading out of the canyon, Zhou Yu showed a little relief on his face.He was about to go down to the bottom of the valley and withdraw with his army, but he saw dust flying in the distance.The expression on his face changed suddenly. He didn't expect Wei Jun to have an iron cavalry lying behind the defense line of the barrier!

Although the two thousand war cavalry of the Wei army who came were not tiger and leopard cavalry, they were selected by Zhang Jaw from all the war cavalry.Facing Wu Jun's infantry who are marching forward is as easy as cutting melons and fruits with a knife.

Looking at the rolling formation of Wei Jun's cavalry, Wu Jun himself became flustered.Some generals shouted loudly: "End the formation! End the spear formation!"

But where is the time to finish the formation?Even if it came in time, the Wu army had no terrain to use, and either formed a square formation that could only defend against the enemy from the front, or a circular formation that could not move.No matter which choice, that is, delaying the rout, it can't change anything.

Soon, the Wei army's iron cavalry divided into ten cavalry teams, and rushed into the chaotic crowd of Wu army in different formations.One by one, Wu Jun's infantry fell under the direct impact of cavalry stabbing, saber chopping and horses.

A very small number of brave Wu army soldiers tried to die with each other, holding up swords and guns to meet the galloping war cavalry.But the result is often that the opponent's horse roared past nearby, and another war cavalry that he didn't notice pierced his body with a lance.
