Imperial Power Of Han Dynasty

Chapter 747

The total number of the Shanyue Army and the Cao Army amounted to eighty to ninety thousand, while the Jiangdong Army's strength was only about one-third of that of the Allied Forces. Under the repeated impact of the Shanyue Army and the Cao Army, it was already shaky.

"..."

Even if Zhou Yu saw this scene in front of him, he no longer had confidence in the counterattack.

"Lord, if this continues, our army will undoubtedly be defeated, or should we break through?"

Zhou Yu spoke to Sun Quan with difficulty.

Sun Quan's face paled: "The chief governor, is there really no alternative?"

Zhou Yu sighed: "Unfortunately, the Shanyue Army was probably bought by Cao Cao and joined forces with Cao Jun to attack our army. Without the Shanyue Army, our army would not necessarily be defeated."

Sun Quan understood that Zhou Yu's words meant that this time will undoubtedly be defeated and must be withdrawn.

"Even if you retreat, where can you go?" Sun Quan said helplessly.

Now that the entire six counties of Jiangdong have basically fallen into the hands of Cao Jun, are they waiting to go to sea to be pirates?

Zhou Yu thought about it for a while and suggested: "Our army can temporarily withdraw to Chaisang and make plans."

Chaisang is located in Yuzhang County, while Sun Fu, the prefect of Yuzhang County appointed before, is attached to Cao Cao. He has been killed in the previous turmoil. Since Yuzhang County is the home of the Sun family, it is naturally much easier to occupy.

"Lord, make a decision quickly, the more entangled, the more damage our army will damage."

Zhou Yu said solemnly: "Our army is familiar with the terrain. As long as you run fast, Cao Jun can't catch up with our army. What's more, Cao Cao still has a chance to appease the counties such as Huiji and Wu Jun."

Sun Quan pondered for a while and nodded helplessly: "Okay."

Suddenly the sound of Mingjin sounded from Sun Quan's army, and all the Jiangdong army's expressions changed drastically.

"The lord has an order to retreat westward!"

The fighting Taishici frowned: "Now that the war is raging, how can we retreat?"

"Brother Ziyi, if you keep entangled with Cao Jun, I'm afraid our army will have to be wiped out!"

Xu Sheng persuaded: "If you withdraw now, you can at least preserve your strength, and do what he wants in the future."

"Mother!"

Tai Shi Ci snorted and shouted: "The whole army retreat!"

The sound of Mingjin caused a chain reaction on the battlefield. After hearing the sound of Mingjin, various Jiangdong troops gathered towards Sun Quan and retreated westward.

"Prime Minister, Jiangdong Army has retired." Cheng Yu arched his hands to Cao Cao.

"Haha, Sun Quan child can't hold on anymore after all."

Cao Cao was proud of his face, and then loudly said: "Send the order to the whole army, follow up at the end, you must capture Sun Quan and capture Zhou Yu alive!"

Cheng Yu on the side was slightly aware of Cao Cao's thoughts. Sun Jian was from Wujun Fuchun. The Sun clan had a long-standing reputation in Jiangdong. If the Sun clan members were left behind, there might be people making waves, so be sure to cut the grass and root.

In this battle, Zhou Yu's military talents were fully revealed. Cao Cao couldn't help but admire Zhou Yu, and naturally hoped that Zhou Yu could use it for himself.

Seeing Taishici and Xu Sheng about to run, Xia Houyuan couldn't help being very unhappy, and shouted: "Taishici, how did you run? Have the courage to stay and fight for three hundred rounds."

Tai Shi Ci snorted, did not reply, and turned around without hesitation. Xia Houyuan was attacked by him and Xu Sheng before, but now that he saw him escape naturally, he would not let it go. He followed them and followed them. .

When Cao Ren saw Sun Quan about to run, he naturally refused to let it go.

"Everyone chasing Sun Quan, we must catch him!"

He was all cavalry under his command, running fast on all four legs, naturally chasing after Sun Quan and refused to let it go. Cao Jun’s cavalry is like a pack of wolves on the grassland, closely following Jiangdong Army, and from time to time they rushed to fight for a while, killing hundreds of Jiangdong soldiers, and then retreated, constantly consuming the Jiangdong Army’s strength, making The Jiangdong Army’s military formation is constantly weakening, and once the Jiangdong Army becomes weak, it will be swallowed in one bite.

In the previous campaign, the Jiangdong Army had only half of the casualties, and only more than 10,000 people remained. But now in the process of escaping, he completely exposed his back to Cao Jun. Naturally, there were more and more casualties, and Sun Quan couldn't help feeling sad.

"Don't leave Jiangdong Army!"

"Grab Sun Quan and dedicate it to Prime Minister Cao."

"Xio is leaving Sun Quan and Zhou Yu!"

Suddenly there was a shout of killing from the southwest side, and tens of thousands of people swarmed up. They were dressed in dazzling colors and looked like crazy, and the turbulent area was the Shanyue coalition army. The Shanyue Army was about to cut off the Jiangdong Army's retreat. As a result, the Jiangdong Army would inevitably fall into the encirclement, and it would be difficult to fly by then.

"General Governor, what should our army do?"

The helpless Sun Quan looked at Zhou Yu.

"It's okay."

Zhou Yu pondered for a moment and said, "You can order the lieutenant generals to throw the gold and silver in their arms on the ground, dissolving the morale of the Shanyue army, and the Shanyue army's greed for treasure. As long as you stop and take the treasure, our army can naturally break out. ."

"Great!"

Sun Quan preached: "Those who have gold and silver properties in their arms, even if they are thrown on the ground, will naturally be compensated after they break through."

Lieutenant generals in the Jiangdong Army, in addition to getting married and starting a business, naturally there are bachelors who are bachelors. Soldiers who get married often send their belongings home to subsidize the family, while the unmarried officers have a lot of money besides subsidizing their parents. One part is taken on the body for use.

Hearing Sun Quan's order, many Jiangdong army officers were quite reluctant, but right now is the most critical moment. As long as they can escape their lives, what are some gold and silver treasures? Moreover, Sun Quan promised to compensate them in the future.

Tai Shici set an example even more. He carried some five baht in his arms to eat alcohol, and at this moment he threw it on the ground. Seeing Tai Shici leading by example, the rich Jiangdong army soldiers reluctantly threw their money on the ground. Suddenly the Jiangdong army was dazzling and colorful, with five baht and all kinds of gold and silver jewelry everywhere.

The tens of thousands of mountain and Vietnamese troops who were chasing saw this scene in front of them, and couldn't help but be dazzled, and their saliva flowed out. The poorer the mountain, the more naturally he likes money. Suddenly there are so many gold and silver properties, how can they not be tempted?

"Oh my God, a lot of five baht, send it, send it!"

"This jade pendant is mine, don't grab it!"

"It's mine, you get out of my way!"

The Shanyue soldiers in the front row flashed red eyes and rushed forward, reaching out to grab the five baht scattered on the ground. Each of these Shan Yue soldiers refused to give in, and even fought for money.

"This is mine, you let me go!" A mountain soldier grabbed a piece of jade pendant and shouted to another mountain soldier.

"This is mine, you have to get out of it!"

Shan Yuebing's character is strong and rude, and he often draws his sword at once when he makes a difference.
