Chapter 288 Those who achieve great things do not care about the details
Zhou Taiyang turned around and revealed his innocent face.
"Hmph, my Lord has left, you have been trapped."
"After being trapped? Sun Quan found a scapegoat, then you will die for him."
In a vague state, Xiahou Dun did not see clearly that it was Zhou Tai, but his voice was much rude than Sun Quan. Xiahou Dun suddenly felt like he was being played with, and he was angry and moved forward.
Zhou Tai reacted in a conditioned manner, directly raised his knife to hold Xiahou Dun's hilt, and said mockingly: "I want to kill me Zhou Tai? It depends on whether you have the ability."
"Zhou Tai? I'm the one I killed!"
Xiahou Dun pushed up hard and immediately shouted to the surrounding entourage: "You all hate this person, don't talk about any martial ethics. Everyone goes side by side and chop this guy into meat paste."
"only."
"Kill."
"Kill Zhou Tai."
"Zhou Tai deserves to die."
clang clang clang
Zhou Tai was resistant and wondering, thinking why these people hated him so much? Didn’t they just say a few harsh words at the city? They didn’t know that the defenders had calculated the anger of fake Zhou Tai to him.
The instinct of survival made Zhou Tai's martial arts suddenly rise. A long sword danced like a fan. Except for the general Xiahou Dun, the other miscellaneous fish could not get close to him.
"I'll hold him in the front, you can stab him in the back."
"good."
Xiahou Dun did not treat Zhou Tai as a living person, so he arranged tactics unscrupulously.
At the critical moment, Zhou Tai grabbed Xiahou Dun's interval of speaking, suddenly rushed forward and cut down two miscellaneous fish cavalry and took the way.
Xiahou Dun was furious and shouted: "Chasing me."
Zhou Tai rushed out of the siege and fled southwest, but forgot to wear Sun Quan's golden helmet on his head. He ran like a car's headlight, unconsciously attracting enemies around him.
On the way to escape, Zhou Tai was attacked by the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry Team many times. They were all soldiers from thousands of places. Zhou Tai was more difficult than the miscellaneous fish.
Outnumbered, it is inevitable that you will be injured.
The man and horse were ate in the dark night, and they didn't know how many black guns they ate. It was not until the fire in their pupils were shining, and Zhou Tai fell off his horse because of his strength.
Even the tiger and leopard cavalry fought from noon to night, and they were trapped in the middle of the battle.
Today's battle with Sun Quan is almost equivalent to a wheel battle. If you continue to fight with Xu Kun, you may suffer a big loss.
Cao Chun and Cao Ren and his two brothers took their own money and food to get equipment and raise cavalry. They understood that it would be painful to die a cavalry, so they chose to withdraw their troops very 'talking'.
Xu Kun led his troops to hold a torch, like a lighthouse by the sea, attracting deserters to gather.
Until the wilderness was completely calmed down, Xu Kun knew that there were only so many soldiers to gather, so he led his troops to Shaopi to stay overnight.
As for the camp outside Shouchun City, they were all ruthlessly abandoned by Xu Kun, even though there were two or three thousand wounded soldiers in the camp.
After working hard for three months, Cao's army lost its morale in one day. Considering that Xiahou Yuan and others had many cavalrymen and were prone to being attacked at night, Xu Kun was unwilling to let more than 10,000 soldiers take risks.
If the entire army is wiped out in the end, Xu Kun may not be able to escape.
At night, he returned to Shaopi to count the people, but in the end, there were only 25,000 naval soldiers on patrol. In addition, two or three thousand injured soldiers in Shouchun camp, Sun Quan lost more than 10,000 people in a day.
The lake wind was cold at night, and the soldiers had no supplies to build barracks, so they could only be arranged to rest on the warships.
Because there were many people who died in battle, two hundred ships were burned by Xiahou Yuan, which did not affect the rest of the soldiers being able to board the ship.
After just being defeated, the soldiers boarded the boat without saying a word. The main ship, including Sun Quan, was also very quiet. There was only a little slight storm at night in Shaopi.
Xu Kun settled down at night to see Sun Quan as well as boarded the main ship.
Failure of a war is not scary, victory or defeat is common in military affairs, but you must know where to lose.
Xu Kun originally planned to ask Sun Quan to review it, but when he walked into the cabin, he saw Sun Quan squatting on the ground, and Zhou Tai was lying on the couch.
"How is Youping?" Xu Kun squatted beside Sun Quan and asked quietly.
Sun Quan rubbed his temples and shook his head gently and said, "Dragon Master Sui Jun just checked that Youping had three knife wounds and seven gunshot wounds. Although these ten were not fatal, they were shocking to see."
Xu Kun stroked his beard and comforted: "Since it is not fatal, it is only a matter of time to recover. Zhongmou should not be too sad."
"Youping was injured by covering me. If I couldn't heal, I was uneasy. Unfortunately, the medicine was placed in the camp, and the doctor could only simply stop the bleeding and could not treat it immediately."
When Sun Quan was halfway through his speech, he suddenly straightened his body and asked seriously: "Uncle, there are still many wounded soldiers in the Shouchun camp. Can't he send someone to take them back?"
Xu Kun shook his head and replied, "This group of reinforcements is prepared. Xiahou Yuan, Zhang Liao and Cao Chun are all famous generals. I don't recommend taking risks at night. If there is any damage, it will be too late to regret it."
"If you don't go tonight, will the Shouchun camp not be?"
"Zhongmou should know that the gecko has its tail broken, and those who accomplish great things will not be careful of the trivial matters."
"Then Shouchun battle can still be fought"
"Since Cao Cao has returned to the rescue, he cannot take Xu Du even if he conquers Shouchun. It is no longer meaningful to continue fighting."
Sun Quan looked ugly, and he almost broke the city in his heart, but he was defeated in the end. Why did God treat me so poorly?
Xu Kun comforted: "Zhongmou, you are still young, and you didn't seize the opportunity this time. We will come back next time. We will return to Jiangdong earlier to give Youping medicine."
"It's mentioned the use of medicine." Sun Quan paused and continued: "It will take a few days to return to Wujun, but the doctor suggested that it's best to use medicine tomorrow, otherwise the wound will easily deteriorate. I plan to stop in Hefei."
Xu Kun asked: "Does Zhongmou plan to join the entire army or just send General Zhou?"
"What's the difference?" Sun Quan's face was full of curiosity.
Xu Kun said seriously: "Longxiang is not a good person. I heard that there are only a few thousand defenders in Hefei, and Zhongmou will stay with more than 20,000 people. Do you guess he will think too much?"
"My uncle reminded me." Sun Quan nodded and agreed: "This person is quite capable of calculating, so what are the requirements for it if he can't guarantee it."
Xu Kun added: "In addition, our army's morale is low. If Long Xiong develops some evil intentions, the consequences will be unimaginable."
"Yeah," Sun Quan nodded and affirmed: "My uncle was thoughtful, so he only sent a team of soldiers to stop the ship to ask for medicine, and the rest went straight back to Jiangdong."
"You should be more cautious when using troops"
Seeing that the atmosphere was in place, Xu Kun immediately got to the point: "Zhongmou talked about today's events with me. Let's analyze and analyze why the enemy can defeat the more with less."
Sun Quan was unwilling to mention it, but Xu Kun asked and didn't answer it, so he found a reason to make excuses: "It's not that the soldiers refused to exert force, but the enemy was too strong. The Tiger and Leopard Cavalry was indeed well-known and could almost do it as one to ten. We also need to cultivate such cavalry."
"Ahem. The Tiger and Leopard Cavalry are powerful, but they are also humans and they will be tired. Zhongmou took away tens of thousands of people in the morning, and later I asked Lu Mian and Deng Dang again."
Xu Kun paused in the middle of the conversation, because Deng Dang was killed by Cao Chun in the chaos army, and another general was killed by Ji Ling. Then he continued to add: "The gap in military strength can completely make up for the combat power of individual soldiers. Zhongmou will tell me the details."
"Well, it starts with Ji Ling Dou General"
Sun Quan stood up and signaled Xu Kun to sit on the edge of the bed together, and then described today's experience from beginning to end.
At first, Xu Kun just frowned and listened. When Sun Quan mentioned Zhang Hong's plan to fight and leave, Xu Kun was so angry that he slapped the edge of the bed.
"If Zhang Zigang hadn't offered this plan, Zhongmou might not have been defeated today. You should not take him to fight in the future!"
