Chapter 564: The Battle of Chibi (1)
Unify the world!
"I will be the man who reunites the mountains and rivers of the Han Dynasty!"
Even Cao Cao's heart was filled with excitement and excitement when he heard this word from Lu Yan.
When the war broke out, both sides believed that they were sure to win, and the morale of the whole army was high, and they were eager to fight to determine the world!
Especially the generals in Jiangdong, they even feel that after this battle, this day will be recorded in history.
Because they defeated Cao Cao, who owned most of the world with just the nine counties in Jiangdong!
"So what can I do with a million troops? Isn't it a defeated general under our Jiangdong?"
As part of the defeat of Cao Cao, they will surely be famous all over the world, and let the long river of history sing their names forever.
With Zhou Yu's order, all the fleets in the Yangtze River and Chibi Camp came out in full swing and launched a decisive charge in the direction of the fire rising into the sky!
Huang Gai and Lu Meng's naval troops were closest to Cao's camp, and they were also the first team to launch an attack on Cao's water camp.
Then, Cheng Puhan Dang, Jiang Qin and Chen Wu formed a clamp attack on both sides, and surrounded the two sides, chasing Cao's army who were scattered and fleeing.
After Huang Gai Lu Meng, the main force of the central army led by Zhou Tai, Pan Zhang, Ding Feng and Zhou Yu. Their fleets were all out at this moment, and they were about to fight to defeat the strong with the weak, just like Cao Cao defeated Yuan Shao!
All the generals who can fight have already launched an attack on the north bank of the Yangtze River.
Win or lose, this is a blow!
The violent southeastern wind blew Zhou Yu's scarlet cloak.
Zhou Yu stood on his big ship and looked out at the Cao army camp where the fire was soaring into the sky.
"Bofu, have you seen all this in heaven?"
"The southeast wind is so strong tonight, you must be blessing Jiangdong."
"Thank you to take care of you, the fire has swallowed Cao's water camp and will spread to their land camp soon."
"At this point, our army has basically won the victory."
However, before Zhou Yu could finish his feelings, there was a uniform and loud noise from the north bank of the Yangtze River and on both sides of the land camp!
"Bang!"
"Bang!Bang!Bang!"
Zhou Yu heard the loud noise that once made him sleepless again. His eyes stern and murmured: "Lu Yan's naval artillery!"
Zhou Yu, who thought he was sure to win, thought of Lu Yan's face that was even whiter than him, and a hint of solemnity suddenly appeared in his heart.
Others, even Cao Cao, were not afraid of Zhou Yu. Only Lu Yan, who always made unknown things, gave him the most headache and fear.
However, Zhou Yu is still very confident in his plan and the army.
"Even if you have artillery, you cannot change the fact that you will lose!" Zhou Yu cheered himself up in his heart and said, "The fire has collapsed your morale, and you can no longer make effective resistance!"
In the Cao Jun Water Village in Jiangbei, more than 300 warships deliberately released were now ignited.
If this trend continues, it may take less than a quarter of an hour to all three hundred warships to be turned into ashes in the fire.
Huang Gai Lu Meng, Cheng Pu Han Dang, Jiang Qin and Chen Wu and others have led their troops to bypass the fire and land on the north shore first...
Sure enough, looking around, all the Cao soldiers on the shore were running away with their heads in their arms, and the fire had defeated the morale of the Cao army.
Among the panicked Cao's soldiers, some were still trying to extinguish the fire with buckets, but no one organized to resist the upcoming Jiangdong Army.
However, what they could not imagine was that the panic of these Cao army soldiers was actually pretending to be, but because Huang Gai and others were eager to make contributions and did not pay attention to these details.
The enemy is in chaos, this is the best time to charge!
Huang Gai, Cheng Pu, Jiang Qin and others were all long-time generals on the battlefield. Seeing that the opportunity was rare, they all rushed over with their troops to the dock.
"Cao Thief, your Grandpa Huang Fu is here to surrender! Hahahaha!"
Huang Gai took his big sword and jumped off the warship first and rushed to the front, while Lu Meng led the army to follow closely.
"Hahaha, I'm talking about what kind of powerful army in the world? After being burned, I'll become a group of mobs?"
"The Cao army is just like that. The men followed me, killed all the Cao army, and captured Cao Cao and Lu Yan alive!"
Cheng Pu and others also landed. They looked at Cao's army who seemed to be very panicked, waved their hands and the whole army pressed over!
Huang Gai sneered and held the big knife, looking around with murderous look on his face.
Huang Gai, Cheng Pu, Jiang Qin and others were under the Jiangdong Pioneer Army, with a small number of people, only about 30,000.
They all stepped on the land and took advantage of the light of the fire to attack the main camp of Cao's army!
The Jiangdong Army charged all the way, but encountered no resistance.
Cheng Pu, who thought everything was in control, suddenly felt something was wrong.
Cao's army has many capable people. Even if the fire shocked the morale of the army, it would not have no resistance at all!
Unfortunately, Huang Gai and others had already been blinded by the temptation of victory and were completely unaware of this strange point. Cheng Pu wanted to remind him, but it was too late.
Just when Cheng Pu realized something was wrong,
Sima Yi waved his hand and ordered in a deep voice:
"ignition!"
"Start a fire!"
"Bang bang bang!!"
The cannon squirted out flames violently, and the iron bomb suddenly crashed into the Jiangdong Army formation with the roar!
The sudden artillery attack caught Huang Gai and others off guard. They never expected that the enemy would set up an ambush in advance.
But Jiangdong's troops are now completely willing to do so. No matter they are bows and arrows or artillery, they cannot stop their progress at this moment!
After several rounds of shelling, the effect was not ideal.
It turned out that after Cheng Pu discovered that the enemy was ambushed with cannons and bows, he ordered the entire army to disperse, reducing the density of the crowd.
After sacrificing two or three hundred soldiers, the Jiangdong Army quickly rushed outside the Cao army camp.
Knowing that the enemy would definitely come to the ambush, Sima Yi could only ask someone to pull the cannon away in advance.
"A little trick!" Cheng Pu was not surprised to see that the enemy's ambush had withdrawn.
Without the harassment of the enemy's artillery, the Jiangdong Army re-formed a shield formation and was about to start attacking the main camp of the Cao army!
The roars from the north bank covered the sound of warships flapping through the water in the river.
In order not to be discovered by Zhou Yu's warship, Gan Ning and Xu Sheng quietly came behind them with only six three-masted warships.
As for Su Fei, he led all the remaining warships in Xiakou Port, waiting for the signal from Gan Ning and others from afar.
Su Fei was nervously walking back and forth on the flagship deck. He kept praying to Gan Ning and Xu Sheng in his heart: "Xingba, Wen Xiang, you must succeed!"
It's approaching!
Three hundred steps ahead is Zhou Yu’s flagship!
There are five or six large ships guarding the flagship, but under the cover of artillery, these ships cannot escape the fate of being sunk!
Although it was still three hundred steps away from Zhou Yu and others, Gan Ning lowered his voice and ordered: "Send the order, line up, and port artillery, prepare for combat!"
Chapter completed!
