Chapter 762 Zhou Yu’s Fierce Attack

Caught by the supervising team, Cao Bing's face turned ugly as he fled.

"It's not that I want to escape, it's because the Shanyue soldiers are too powerful." He tried his best to defend, but his voice became lower and lower.

"snort!"

The war supervisor just sneered and raised the short ax in his hand. The smooth surface of the ax reflected the panicked faces of the fleeing Cao soldiers.

Sa!

A human head rolled on the ground several times, and a headless corpse stood on the ground due to inertia. Bright red blood spurted out from its neck, and its legs weakened and fell to the ground.

The war supervisor's armor was stained red by the blood spurting out, and he said with murderous intent: "No one is allowed to retreat without the general's order!"

Cao Jun, who was retreating, saw a row of war supervisors holding swords and axes with murderous looks. They couldn't help but trembled. How could they dare to retreat?

The retreating Cao army had no choice but to rush forward again, formed a formation on the spot, and fought with the Shanyue soldiers who rushed forward again, struggling to hold on.

Although the offensive of the Shanyue soldiers was temporarily blocked by the supervising team, Cao Jun in the front row was under great pressure, and Le Jin, who was in charge of the command, frowned.

"Come here, ask the Prime Minister for reinforcements!"

"reinforcement?"

Cao Cao said slowly: "Let Wen Qian hold on, reinforcements will arrive soon."

"No!" The messenger ordered the cavalry to move away, but Cao Cao stood still and did not send a single soldier.

Cao Xiu on the side saw this and said in confusion: "Prime Minister, General Le is in critical condition now, why didn't the Prime Minister send reinforcements?"

Cao Cao did not speak. Cheng Yu on the side reminded: "Captain Cao, the Jiangdong Army has not been mobilized yet."

"Jiang Dongjun?"

Cao Xiu looked coldly and saw the Jiangdong Army in red armor forming a formation on the spot, like burning flames, but they did not make any move.

He Qi joined forces with Yuzhang's army and attacked Cao's army with Shanyue troops in front and back. However, there were still 20,000 Jiangdong troops who had not been used.

Sun Quan's young face revealed some anxiety, and he turned around and said, "Grand Governor, are our troops looking at you like this?"

Zhou Yu said slowly: "My lord, Cao's army has not yet dispatched its troops. Our army's strength is far less than that of Cao's army. If we move out first, we will inevitably fall into the siege of Cao's army."

"Cao's army, under the leadership of Cao Cao, is marching south and north. It is very powerful. If it confronts our army head-on, our army may not be able to win."

These 20,000 soldiers and horses are the last elite of Jiangdong Army. If something goes wrong, the consequences will naturally be disastrous, so Zhou Yu is cautious.

When Sun Quan heard this, he suppressed his emotions and just looked at the opposite side anxiously, with his five fingers clenched into a fist.

However, as the situation changed, Zhou Yu couldn't help but frown.

Cheng Pu frowned and said: "Grand Governor, Cao's army's line is about to be penetrated. If this happens, the Shanyue army will inevitably come into contact with Captain He's troops, which is not good."

At the beginning of the battle, Zhou Yu cleverly lured the Shanyue troops to attack Cao Cao's formation, and also lured the Yuzhang troops who had surrendered to Cao Cao to rebel, successfully gaining the initiative in the battle. The Jiangdong Army and the Shanyue Army were originally life-and-death enemies, but under Zhou Yu's planning, the two armies "fight side by side" like allies.

Killing people with borrowed swords and using the Shanyue Army to deal with Cao's army was Zhou Yu's strategy. He knew in his heart that Cao Cao's army was coming with great momentum and its strength was far superior to Jiangdong's army. Cao Cao's ability to use troops was also extraordinary. If it were a head-on battle, even Zhou Yu himself might not be able to win.

However, if the Shanyue soldiers and the nearly 10,000 Jiangdong troops led by He Qi met in one place, their enemies would be extremely jealous when they met, and they would definitely fight together, and the situation would be too dangerous.

"Grand Governor, send troops!" Chen Wu shouted: "I am willing to be the vanguard. These Cao soldiers invade our Jiangdong. Everyone is gnashing their teeth. We may not be able to defeat them."

Taishi Ci also said proudly: "Great Governor, you need to be bold when things happen. Success or failure depends on this one move!"

"Grand Governor, give me the order. Even though Huang Gai is old, he still dares to fight."

The surrounding Jiangdong Army generals asked for battle one after another, with high spirits. Zhou Yu couldn't help but sigh softly. Even if all the mechanisms were exhausted, in the end he still had to leave his fate to God.

"Lord, please give the order to send out troops." Zhou Yu said respectfully to Sun Quan.

"this"

Sun Quan was a little surprised, but when he saw the expectant faces of Zhou Yu and Jiangdong Army generals, he finally nodded.

The ancient ingot sword was taken out of its sheath, shining blackly under the sunlight. This sword was passed from Sun Jian to Sun Ce, and then from Sun Ce to Sun Quan.

Sun Quan suppressed his excitement and said loudly: "Soldiers! Cao Cao is shameless and invades my homeland and invades my territory. Can you swallow this breath?"

"Can't swallow!" Jiang Dongjun roared like thunder, and the crowd was indignant.

The ancient ingot sword pointed at Cao Jun's main formation, and Sun Quan said angrily: "The whole army will attack fiercely, target Cao Jun's main formation."

"kill!"

With a roar like thunder, the 20,000 Jiangdong Army could no longer hold back any longer, and they fiercely charged towards Cao Jun's main formation. It was like a wave sweeping out, and a ball of flames rushed towards Cao Jun.

"Prime Minister, Jiangdong's army has moved!" Cao Xiu said excitedly!

"Um."

Cao Cao smiled slightly, but he endured it to the end.

"Cao Ren, Cao Xiu, and Cao Zhen led the cavalry out of the formation and circled the flanks of Jiangdong Army. They waited until the main force of Jiangdong Army rushed up and attacked from the flanks!"

"Xia Houyuan stepped forward to supervise the formation. He must intercept Jiangdong's army and complete his victory in one battle!"

"Here!"

The generals of Cao's army each agreed. Cao Ren, Cao Xiu and Cao Zhen rode out and led more than a thousand cavalry to rush out. Xia Houyuan, on the other hand, commanded 30,000 infantry in front, forming a thick formation. The heavy battle formation was prepared to prepare for the charging Jiangdong Army.

At this time, the scout sent by Zhou Yu also arrived at He Qi's army.

"Congratulations to the Colonel, Congratulations to the Colonel, the Commander-in-Chief of the Grand Governor!"

"What's up?"

He Qi shouted loudly. He usually loves to be neat and tidy, but now his clothes are stained with blood. The entire armor is stained with blood. He has an angry look on his face, which shows how tragic the battle situation has become.

The detective replied: "With the order from the Governor, Lieutenant He immediately withdrew from the siege of Yuejin's troops, and cooperated with the army Zhengqi to attack Cao Cao's army's main formation."

"I know, general, let's go!"

He Qi agreed casually and ordered: "Order the entire army to withdraw and change the direction of attack."

As He Qi's order continued to be conveyed, dozens of soldiers dispersed in all directions to convey He Qi's order. After receiving the order, Jiangdong's nearly ten thousand troops, who were attacking the Lejin tribe, escaped one after another. They no longer fought bloody battles with the Lejin tribe, but formed a formation.

Jiangdong's army suddenly retreated, and the pressure on Cao's army was immediately relieved. Although Le Jin didn't know why Jiangdong's army retreated, he didn't care so much and hurriedly ordered: "Come up and stop Shanyue's army!"

The extra Cao troops were filled in, and the eroded front line suddenly became stronger.
