Chapter 1912: Tadun was awarded the head, Zhou Yu fought for his life
When the raging fire in the city continued to erode the space of the Wuhuan people, and the thick black smoke was like a ferocious beast with its teeth and claws, and the crazy whale was swallowing the Wuhuan people around it, it looked like it was crazy, and it was exhausted even while swinging the sword.
He exerted all his strength, just like a wounded wolf. The more seriously injured he became, the crazier he became.
Huang Gai's spear suddenly emerged from the crowd, passed through the chaotic figures from bottom to top, and stabbed Tadun's waist diagonally, fierce and cruel.
Tadun was concentrating on slashing the Jiangdong soldiers who were blocking the road in front of him. He tried his best to deflect the three swords coming towards him. He was completely unprepared when a simple iron gun quietly attacked. Tadun deflected the knife and dodged it.
After passing through with a sword, he slashed head-on with another sword and knocked a Jiangdong soldier off his horse. The spear broke through the attack. By the time Tadun noticed it, it was already too late to block it!
Tadun's excited roar immediately turned into a beast-like howl. Although he tried to twist his body to avoid it, the spear still made a deep and long wound on his waist, and blood spurted out!
Tadun howled miserably and shook his body. If he hadn't quickly hugged the horse's neck, he might have fallen off the horse immediately!
Seeing that Tadun was injured, the guards around Tadun also went crazy. They pounced on him without hesitation, and used their flesh and blood to knock away the Jiangdong soldiers who were pressing around him. They even covered the horse's glasses with their clothes and sleeves, and then used their swords to
He slashed at the butt of his own war horse, causing the horse to rush forward crazily.
The method of injuring both sides finally worked. The Wuhuan people's horses violently knocked away several Jiangdong soldiers blocking the front, but immediately lost their balance and fell to the ground. The horses that followed had no time to stop their feet.
They were also tripped and fell to the ground...
Even so, a rare space was cleared, and the injured Tadun showed the highest fighting level in his life, clutching his waist tightly while slashing wildly.
"Stop him!" Huang Gai fell behind because he was avoiding the collision of a war horse. Seeing that Tadun was about to break out of the encirclement, he couldn't help shouting anxiously, "Stop him! Reward him with a thousand gold coins!"
Tadun kicked the horse in the belly with all his strength. The horse was in pain and rushed forward desperately. A Jiangdong soldier who came to intercept was the first to bear the brunt. He and his horse were hit and hit, and he was immediately thrown out like a popping meat ball.
.
Tadun's war horse was naturally one of the best in the world. Although it was hit with a bloody head and screamed in pain, this only increased its madness. Its huge body stagnated for a moment, and then jumped forward again.
.
Zhou Yu arrived nearby and sat down on the horse. Looking at the crazy people in front of him, he reached out and took out the bow and arrow from the side of the horse, took aim briefly, and then fired!
At dawn, before dawn, arrows streaked across the sky as small black shadows, and the screams that pierced the sky were drowned in the huge and noisy sounds of fighting on the battlefield, and no one noticed its existence.
By the time Tadun discovered the arrow, it was already approaching!
If it were normal, Tadun might be able to rely on his skillful riding skills on horseback to hide in the horse's belly to dodge, but the injury to his waist caused Tadun's overall movement to be uncoordinated. When he subconsciously made dodge movements, his waist
The huge pain caused by the destroyed muscles and pulled wounds made Tadun's whole body freeze suddenly...
"puff!"
The arrow shot out from the shoulder!
A large section of the bloody arrow was exposed on Tadun's back!
Tadun could no longer maintain his balance and fell from his horse.
Huang Gai chased after him closely, and stabbed Tadun with the bloody gun head!
Tadun had no way to hide, and watched helplessly as the spear rushed toward him. Before he could even scream, the head of the spear penetrated his chest, and a cloud of blood flew into the air.
The night is gradually fading away, and dawn has arrived.
After Tadun's death, the Wuhuan people were in chaos. Although in the end they could not completely stop the Wuhuan troops who were frantically rushing outwards to escape, they basically defeated the Wuhuan people.
The remains of Jiangdong soldiers on the battlefield have been collected and buried uniformly. As for the corpses of Wuhuan people, no one cares about them. They are still lying on the ground in a mess.
Some of the easily portable trophies captured were tied to the captured horses of the Wuhuan people. The troops slowly left the burned Yundu City and continued to move forward to find another camp.
Yun Du's ambush was undoubtedly very successful. The Jiangdong Army defeated the entire Wuhuan army at the cost of only losing more than 600 people and one officer was killed. The 2,500 ordinary Wuhuan cavalry plus Ta
Dun's 300 personal guards and a cavalry array of nearly 3,000 people were completely defeated.
Tadun died in the battle, and about a thousand more cavalry died in Yundu. The remaining Wuhuan soldiers fled into the nearby mountains and forests. Because they were too scattered, there was no value in pursuing them.
Zhou Yu's troops stationed themselves at the mountain pass and rested briefly.
"Happy! Happy!" Although it was already close to late autumn, Huang Gai was still wearing a battle robe, exposing his furry chest. There was a circle of bandages on his left arm, and there was still some blood seeping out. But Huang Gai
As if he didn't know the pain at all, he laughed and clapped his hands, "This battle was a great one! The governor made a clever plan and lured him into the jar. These Wuhuan people are like pigs and dogs!"
Zhou Yu nodded slightly, with no sadness or joy on his face.
Huang Gai laughed for a moment longer, then slowly stopped laughing and said, "Is the governor still worried about Jiangxia? Although my lord is not as brave as the eldest lord, it should be fine if he sticks to one place..."
Zhou Yu nodded slightly, but his eyes moved slightly.
When a person is successful, or feels that he is successful, he will often be proud of the success itself, and may even feel that success is entirely due to his own ability and his own struggle, while ignoring the environment or the influence of others. Subconsciously,
It will be very easy to think that all the glory is yours...
Just like many people who have gained a lot of wealth, some people basically don't think about the right time and place, nor what current events create heroes. They feel that all the merits and wealth are their own, and then they start to tremble.
He forgot how many people helped and worked hard on his road to success.
Anyway, it's all due to him alone, and the others can be ignored.
Zhou Yu was worried that Sun Quan would become such a person...
Occupying Jiangxia is a kind of success, but it does not mean that if Jiangxia succeeds, Jiangling will also succeed. Sun Quan sent Cheng Pu here, which means that Sun Quan has such a tendency.
And this kind of thinking is very dangerous.
Arrogance is an original sin.
"The one I'm worried about is not Jiangxia, but Jiangdong..." Zhou Yu said slowly.
Huang Gai was stunned for a moment, "Jiangdong? The governor means..."
Zhou Yu looked solemn and said: "If Cao Sikong sends people secretly to Jiangdong to sow discord and promise benefits..."
"This..." Huang Gai's face couldn't help but change, and he took a breath of cold air.
At first, Huang Gai didn't quite understand why Zhou Yu gave up the Jiangling offensive and rushed to Jiangxia. Now he realized that Zhou Yu had such far-reaching considerations.
The relationship between the Jiangdong nobles and the Sun family is actually not a very strong superior-subordinate relationship, but more like a partnership. Since they are partners, it is okay to get rid of one and find another with better conditions at any time because of interests.
There's just nothing weird about it.
Did Cao Cao offer better conditions than Sun Quan?
The answer is yes.
Although Cao Sikong was pushed to the ground by the Hussars General and slapped several times, no matter what, Cao Sikong's body was still there, his front and back were very enchanting, and the Emperor was still in Xu County.
What Sun Quan can give, Cao Cao can also give. What Sun Quan cannot give, Cao Cao can still give.
So if the situation really evolves to what Zhou Yu said, then the Sun family in Jiangdong will be finished...
If Jiangdong is in chaos and the Sun family cannot get support, then Sun Quan, Zhou Yu and others will be trapped in Jiangling and Jiangxia. Even though they still have soldiers and territory, it is obvious that they have lost their strategic depth and rear base.
Sun Quan and Zhou Yu will be like duckweeds, they may wither and wither at any moment.
Is war always only about fighting on the battlefield?
The tent fell into silence for a moment.
Huang glanced at Zhou Yu and seemed to understand why Zhou Yu didn't look happy even though he won, but it was hard for him to say anything about this kind of thing.
Zhou Yu thought silently. He believed that Sun Quan, who was blinded by Jiang Xia's success, must not have thought of this, and he also believed that Cao Cao must be starting to do this...
Therefore, if Jiangdong natives defected, what if Zhou Yu really captured Jiangling?
"The foundation of the Sun family has been greatly depleted..." Zhou Yu said slowly, "A certain person once advised my lord that it takes ten years to be fertile and ten years to make progress... If my lord can stop hasting and be patient, he will certainly be able to do a lot in twenty years... But then
,Lord...ε=(??ο`*)))...』
"The land of Jiangxia can be consolidated to the east of the Yangtze River, and there are copper mines. If there is a good opportunity, we can indeed seize it quickly..." Zhou Yu shook his head and continued, "But what is the benefit of taking Jiangling? Population? Money? Even if it is
Jiangling is the most wealthy country in the world. How many counties can there be in one place? If the ants attack, how many casualties will there be? What’s more, the gentry in Jingzhou are complicated, especially those in Jiangdong, my lord..."
Although Zhou Yu didn't finish his sentence, the meaning was very obvious. Sun Quan didn't even take care of the nobles in Jiangdong, so he rushed to attack Jingzhou.
They surrendered by force, and then there were a bunch of people who obeyed on the surface but made trouble behind the scenes...
Isn't this just like the old path Sun Jian and Sun Ce followed back then?
Although Sun Quan said that he has changed a lot, the blood of the Sun family still flows through him!
Zhou Yu raised his head, his eyes seemed to penetrate the tent, and cast into the unknown distance. He said silently in his heart, "Brother Bo Fu, you brother, I'm afraid you will hate me again..."
……(╬ ̄俣)=○……
"Boom!"
Cao Cao slapped the table with his palm.
"This Zhou Gongjin! He came so quickly!"
Cao Cao originally estimated that it was impossible for the Wuhuan people to defeat Zhou Yu, but they could at least hold Zhou Yu in Jiangling for a while. However, he did not expect that Zhou Yu would strike first, set up an ambush, and easily defeat Tadun.
Although Tadun is dead, the supplies originally promised to Wuhuan will naturally...
But this is a minor issue. Cao Cao is inevitably a little unhappy, and now he mainly has to deal with the menacing Zhou Yu.
A large part of the reason for Tadun's defeat was due to Tadun's own negligence and carelessness, but it can also be seen that Zhou Yu had careful plans and deep thoughts.
So, did Zhou Yu rush back from Jiangling because of his loyalty to Sun Quan and concern for Sun Quan's safety, or because he discovered his intentions?
Cao Cao's little eyes rolled.
Conquer Jiangxia city by city, and then attack Jiangdong bit by bit?
Is that still Cao Cao? Don't forget how Cao Cao captured Jizhou. Using force to suppress others is Cao Cao's usual tactic. This time is no exception. Although Cao Cao ostensibly sent troops to assist Jingzhou and march into Jiangxia, in fact
, the goal behind Cao Cao is huge, it is not just a place like Jiangxia!
The question facing Cao Cao now is whether to send troops to isolate Zhou Yu and Sun Quan from joining together, or to simply put Zhou Yu into the city and then surround it...
Interception has the advantage of interception. Even if we don’t talk about information issues, simply speaking in terms of large numbers of people and strength, the more soldiers there are in Jiangxia, the harder it will be to control and besiege. However, interception also has disadvantages. After all, the intercepting troops
This means that it is very likely that it will be attacked from two sides. Even if it is stopped, the losses will be very heavy.
"Come here! Send the order!" Cao Cao stood up, "beat the drum and gather the generals! I really want to meet this Zhou Yu and Zhou Gongjin for a while!"
…………
For Zhou Yu, protecting Sun Quan is not really for Sun Quan himself, nor is it for himself. He wants to be a world hero, or a peerless hero, and leads troops in battle. It is just to fulfill Sun Ce's entrustment and let Jiangdong
The Sun family can survive.
Therefore, Zhou Yu doesn't care whether Sun Quan likes him or not.
Zhou Yu didn't care whether Sun Quan could trust him or not.
Zhou Yu only cares about one thing, that is, the Sun family cannot fail!
So when Cao Cao came out in formation, Zhou Yu launched the attack without saying a word.
When the two sides clashed, the impact Jiang Dongbing showed even Cao Cao was a little surprised.
Cao Cao's side seemed to have a numerical advantage when the two sides formed an array, so their momentum was not bad. In addition, Zhou Yu's formation was not very good at the beginning, so in the early stage of the battle, Zhou Yu's soldiers and horses were still overwhelmed.
After suffering some losses, and seeing that they could not defeat Cao Jun's formation in one fell swoop, they pulled away from the two wings and fought while retreating.
Seeing Zhou Yu behind the front, Cao Cao's army suddenly became more energetic. Even Cao Cao, who paid close attention to Zhou Yu, seemed to feel at that moment that Zhou Yu just became famous by chance, and he was probably not as powerful as the rumors said!
But what happened next shocked Cao Cao.
Zhou Yu's soldiers only retreated slightly, and then unknowingly spread out their formation. After regaining their footing a little, they immediately launched a fierce counterattack! It was as if the small retreat just now was what they expected.
Likewise, it did not affect their combat effectiveness at all. Such a counterattack was sharp and sudden, and almost caused Cao Jun's formation to be thrown into chaos!
Any famous general has some killer skills. Zhou Yu has been with Sun Ce for so long, so it is impossible for him to still have mediocre soldiers. The strength shown by the top soldiers of Jiangdong soldiers even forced Cao Cao to send
With the help of the Qingzhou soldiers, they stabilized the situation on the front line. At the same time, they also acted as if to outflank Zhou Yu's soldiers on the flanks, pulling Zhou Yu's soldiers apart and repelling this unexpected wave of fierce counterattacks.
However, Zhou Yu's soldiers did not become confused because their rhythm was interrupted. Instead, they slowly retreated, relying on the protection of the archers, and once again gathered and arranged their queues, ready to attack again at any time!
Zhou Yu came from afar. Although the soldiers of the army have been adjusted, they are not machines after all, and they are still somewhat worn out. Relatively speaking, Cao Cao is stationed here, so he has a certain advantage in physical strength, so even if it is a draw at the moment,
It all means that a layer of Cao Cao's face was shaved off by Zhou Yu.
Therefore, it is even more impossible for Cao Cao to retreat like this.
In Cao Cao's eyes, these Jiangdong soldiers were not in line with his aesthetics at all. They were short, slim, and dark, and they did not have the appearance of Guan Yu Oba at all... Well, they were a cross-over, but they were probably just like that. After all, Jiangdong and Kansai were big men.
, there are still many differences in body shape, but the short and strong Jiang Dongbing is like a piece of stone, smelly and hard.
For anyone fighting with cold weapons, every fight is a huge drain on physical strength. In addition, weapons and armors may cause injuries and bleeding during the fight. Therefore, the morale and willpower of the soldiers are very important.
It's very crucial.
On the front, these Jiangdong armored warriors rushed over again and again. Their heavy armors had been damaged by stabbings during the battle. Some even had arrowheads attached, and many of them were injured. However, these Jiangdong armored warriors were injured.
The soldiers seemed to be completely unaware of fatigue. Even if they were killed and retreated, they would only take a moment to breathe, and then they would roll in again, killing deeper and deeper each time, vowing to break through Cao Cao's line, and then rush into Jiangxia.
Among!
Cao Cao couldn't help but his eyes twitching when he saw it!
Of course, the Qingzhou soldiers in Cao Cao's army are not vegetarians. As the backbone of Cao's army on the ground, they maintain a neat array, with war flags fluttering high on their heads, long spears, large shields, halberds, and swords.
The whole body of armor blocked these Jiangdong soldiers at their feet!
With each impact, the blood spread a little more, and the corpses of those killed in battle were everywhere along the line of the two sides' formations. Cao Jun's Qingzhou soldiers had no scruples in piling up the corpses as a protective wall between battles, and
Zhou Yu's soldiers used their swords and guns without fear, and even knocked him down with their bodies!
Cao Cao frowned and looked up at the sky.
The sky is just right now, the autumn air is crisp, it's not too cold, and it's not too hot either. It's a good time to bring human beings' cannibalism to its fullest.
What does Zhou Yu and Zhou Gongjin want to do?
This makes it clear that the baby doesn't want to live this day anymore, so he broke the jar today, and everyone looks like he's going to die together. What does this mean?
