Chapter three hundred and eighty fifth battle(1/2)
With the arrival of the elite knights of Cao's army, Zhang Liao's soldiers who were at a disadvantage breathed a sigh of relief and their fighting spirit was maintained.
Seeing this, Lu Meng felt regretful that the enemy's fighter planes were not completely wiped out this time.
However, after a short period of reflection, he realized that his troops would be entangled by enemy cavalry and besieged by the following main armies. Instead, they would suffer heavy losses and affect the subsequent defensive battle.
Wu Jun retreated one after another.
The encounter that lasted for most of a while has just come to an end!
The two armies gradually came together.
The distance was close, and only then did the officers and soldiers of Cao's army realize that this elite knight was actually the most proud of the Prime Minister's Huben Battalion.
The first general was Xu Chu, the personal guard general known as Hu Chi.
When the two generals met, Zhang Liaofang let out a long sigh of relief, with a look of joy on his face as he bowed his hands and said: "This time Liao led his troops to go deep, and was almost defeated by the Wu army's siege, which caused a catastrophe.
"
"Thanks to General Xu for coming to reinforce us at the critical moment."
After that, he bowed deeply to Xu Chu in front of him, expressing his heartfelt thanks.
He did show a look of fear.
After all, it is obvious that if he is defeated by the Wu army in this battle, his reputation of shocking the people of Jiangdong will be shattered.
When fighting the Wu people again in the future, there will be a lack of psychological shock.
"General Zhang doesn't have to be like this. Chu is just following orders this time!"
As soon as he said this, he responded quickly: "Now the Prime Minister has ordered General Xiahou to personally control Juchao and supervise the 26th Army. He himself also led the water and infantry troops to rush over from behind."
"Only because I heard that the general was heading south with his front troops and was worried, I ordered Chu to lead the Huben camp to come and support him."
"The Prime Minister is still wise!"
"If he hadn't been able to predict events like a god, I'm afraid Liao would have suffered a military defeat today."
After hearing his explanation of the causes and consequences, Zhang Liao reacted quickly and quickly changed his words to compliment him.
"We are now in Ruxuwu. Our army has been fighting with the Wu army for a long time. The soldiers may be tired."
"Since the Prime Minister has personally led his troops to the south, shall our army set up camp here first and form a feint attack on Ruxu?"
Zhang Liao looked thoughtful and solemnly proposed.
In response to this matter, Xu Chu knew that his military level was not higher than that of him, so he also agreed.
The military order was passed down.
Cao Jun's troops camped on the flat land along the outer line of Ruxuwu for about thirty miles, waiting for the subsequent arrival of the main forces.
Within the next day or two.
The subsequent legions of Cao's army gathered one after another.
First, the tiger and leopard cavalry commanded by Cao Xiu arrived.
The infantry and cavalry from all walks of life and the naval forces in training gathered here.
Zhang Liao, Xu Chu and other generals ordered the soldiers to disperse in front of the camp and stand on both sides holding halberds to welcome them.
While sleeping, Prime Minister Cao Cao came to the Ruxu front line in person.
In an instant, the sky seemed to be changing.
In the sky above, there was originally a gentle warm solar air current.
But suddenly it was windy and rainy, and cold air hit our faces!
The raindrops moistened the ground, making the surrounding roads even more muddy.
Under such weather conditions, Cao Cao, who had originally wanted to take the opportunity to attack Ruxu, had no choice but to postpone his offensive.
Let’s wait until the weather clears up and warms up again before making a decision!
But this delay lasted until the main force led by Sun Quan arrived.
Because in the past, Danyang and other places were successively instigated by the Cao family, and various tribes in Shanyue continued to rebel.
So much so that it had to involve most of Sun Quan's energy, and urgently dispatched Lu Xun and He Qi to lead most of their troops to conquer.
He also took a break and rushed to Jiangbei to supervise the war in Jiangbei. He then sat in Jianye to protect the safety of Jiangdong.
However, generals such as Lu Xun are still extremely powerful.
The Shanyue rebellion was quickly put down, and tens of thousands of people were surrendered.
Now that the rear has settled down.
Sun Quan, Lord of Wu, naturally had no worries and led all the troops to punt boats from the ferry to Ruxuwu.
But just when the main ship on which Sun Quan was riding reached the Rushui River, an incident suddenly occurred that made the Wu army fearful.
Each of them was ordered to line up with their troops on the river on the right side, waiting for Xu Sheng's troops to guard Ruxu Wu and the water village defense. At this moment, a strong wind suddenly came up, causing the warships to float across the ocean one after another.
And as the wind became stronger.
Xu Sheng's ships actually moved slowly towards the camp on the river bank where Cao Jun was stationed.
This phenomenon happened very suddenly.
When the news came back to Ruxu Wu and Lu Meng knew about it, it was already too late.
He was about to raise a large force and move out of Wubao to attack Cao's army, giving his troops enough time to evacuate.
But it was already too late.
At this moment, Xu Sheng's body was basically blown to the shore by the strong wind.
The sergeants on each warship saw that they were actually blown to the river bank. In front of the main camp of Cao's army, they couldn't help but feel panic.
At the critical moment, Xu Sheng suddenly pulled out a long sword from his waist and said loudly and sternly: "Soldiers, due to weather conditions, we have been blown into the enemy's eyes."
"I hope you don't feel panicked."
"This time, we can only muster the courage to go ashore and form a formation to fight the enemy until the wind subsides."
"If not, we may not be able to retreat safely today."
A firm word came out suddenly.
The mood of the sergeants under his command gradually stabilized.
After scanning the surroundings, Xu Sheng's serious face revealed a hint of joy, and then he shouted loudly to strengthen his military morale.
"Brothers, our army now has no retreat."
"If you want to return safely, you can only fight to the death and defeat Cao's army patrolling the shore."
"kill!"
"Anyone who survives this battle will definitely ask for merit from his lord after the war. If unfortunately he dies on the battlefield, I will also ask for double the pension for your family members and elders."
As soon as the words fell, it was like the majesty lasted forever.
This moment ignited the fierce fire in the hearts of all the soldiers.
Their expressions seemed to show a look of chilling in just a moment.
Fighting spirit!
"Kill all Cao's troops."
"Our army will win!"
Waves of loud shouts continued to be heard in the army.
Seeing that the morale of the troops was ready, Xu Sheng did not waste any time and quickly ordered all the troops to land quickly to form battle formations.
Naturally, such a big movement could not be hidden from the patrolling Cao army.
Their eyes were attracted immediately.
Seeing the Wu army suddenly attacking from the river, they all formed formations to resist.
The first round of confrontation quickly began between the two armies.
In the chaos of the battle, Xu Sheng wielded his sword and led his troops to fight in the front, taking the lead. It can be said that the soldiers under his command were all high-spirited and their fighting spirit soared.
Cao's army was only patrolling, but was killed and retreated in a short time.
But the fighting trend quickly spread to the main camp.
At this moment, Cao Cao, who was sitting upright above the chairman, heard this military report, and a trace of suspicion appeared on his face. Then he faced the generals and whispered:
"Wu Jun dares to attack on his own initiative?"
"It seems that Sun Quan's son and the main force have arrived at Ruxuwu."
Who is Cao Cao?
Although I was a little unclear about the intentions of this Wu partial division at the moment.
To be continued...
