Three Kingdoms: I, Ma Su, Only Seek Death

While Ma Su was concentrating on building the city, the Eastern Wu was also looking for opportunities.

If it were the past, I'm afraid that the Eastern Wu would indeed hide in the castle like a turtle. Even if Ma Su rode on their faces and shit, they would only say happily that it smelled good.

But this time was different from the past. Ma Su built the city to the banks of the Yangtze River. This also means that once Ma Su's city is completed, the battle line will be completely set at their doorstep.

This is the most unlikely thing for the Jiangdong family to accept, after all, this is a decision that affects their hometown!

If Ma Su could have been decades earlier, before Sun Quan and the Jiangdong family were bound together, perhaps the resistance he encountered would not be so great. But with the deep binding of the entire Jiangdong and Sun Quan after the Battle of Chibi, the self-defense of Jiangnan was completely stimulated.

Again, the reason why the Yangtze River is sad is because the people in the south don't want the people in the north to pass!

It is also because of this that every time the Northern Army marched south to the Yangtze River, it was basically defeated by the Jiangdong people who shared the same hatred. This phenomenon lasted for four hundred years during the Five Barbarians and the Northern and Southern Dynasties...

It is obvious that even in the face of Ma Su's terrifying combat power, the Wu army, which had always been weak, rarely broke out with a high fighting spirit. When Zhuge Ke recruited the death squad, there was even a situation of gathering to respond!

In a very short time, Zhuge Ke recruited 2,000 Jiangdong death squads. With this unit, Zhuge Ke took advantage of the night to open the city gate and quietly moved towards Ma Su's camp.

This time, the Eastern Wu was well prepared, and the people and horses were silent and moved as lightly as possible. However, when the Wu army touched the Han army camp two hundred steps away, they were still discovered by the Han army's sentry!

After all, Ma Su did look down on the Eastern Wu, but... Liu Yin would not.

"Who is it!"

"It's Wu soldiers! Enemy attack!"

"Go and inform the general! The Eastern Wu is coming to attack at night!"

For a time, the Han army quickly issued an early warning, and a large number of Han soldiers rushed out as soon as they received the warning.

Seeing that the night attack was about to fail, Zhuge Ke frowned and said firmly.

"It's already come to this, let's just charge!"

"All the troops, follow me and charge forward. Before Ma Su has time to reorganize his army, we will rush forward and defeat them first!"

Zhuge Ke made a quick decision and led the Wu death squad to charge directly into the Han army camp.

The Han army had a total of 30,000 soldiers. Although most of them were veterans, they did not react so quickly to the night attack.

After all, they had always been the ones who attacked other camps...

In short, the Han army did not react quickly to the night attack. It was precisely because of this that Zhuge Ke's decisiveness allowed the Wu army to break through the Han army's outer defense line in time and rush into the inner camp.

If they rushed into the inner camp, the next thing would not be so difficult. The Wu soldiers began to scatter, fighting to the death just to throw torches into the Han army's tents.

For a time, the Han army's camp was in chaos, and the Han army and the desperate Wu soldiers started a melee.

Such a noise naturally woke up Ma Su who had just fallen asleep. The moment he was woken up, Ma Su's eyes were red.

"TMD! These Jiangdong guys are not sleeping in the middle of the night, how come they are imitating the Wei people!"

"If you dare to disturb my sleep, I will break your legs! You are dead!"

With that, Ma Su was too lazy to put on his clothes and rushed out with his upper body naked.

There was no way, Ma Su was very irritable when he got up, and so far few people dared to disturb his sleep.

The last person who disturbed his sleep was Wang Jing, the governor of Bingzhou, and the result... was that he was surrounded by Ma Su and starved to death on the Emei Terrace.

However, this time, when Ma Su rushed out to join the night attack of the Wu army, Ma Su woke up all of a sudden.

This time, the Wu army was not right, or it felt wrong.

Based on the previous experience of fighting with the Eastern Wu, Ma Su was sure that the Eastern Wu should have run away when he rushed out. But this time, the Dongwu troops not only did not run away, but also dared to fight back.

Fighting back was fine, but these Jiangdong soldiers suddenly changed their behavior and were not afraid of life and death. Faced with Ma Su's powerful fighting power, the Dongwu death squad didn't care about their lives and stabbed him at the risk of their lives.

Even after being stabbed to the ground, they still raised their knives to cut his ankles.

After only a few rounds of fighting, Ma Su not only did not gain an advantage, but was forced to retreat several steps by this group of lunatics.

Now, Ma Su really felt how xenophobic Jiangdong was. He had fought for so long, but this was the first time he was suppressed by a group of soldiers.

Fortunately, Liu Yin had reacted, and the Han army on both wings quickly reinforced. The Han army that was attacked at night also recovered at this moment and quickly launched a counterattack.

This time, the Dongwu troops were mostly composed of Danyang's elite soldiers, and they were already the most elite troops in Dongwu. But even so, they were still far behind the Han veterans who followed Ma Su through the mountains of corpses and seas of blood.

The two sides fought in the camp, and in less than half an hour, almost all of Zhuge Ke's troops were wiped out. Zhuge Ke had to give up the plan to continue the night attack and left with only a few personal guards.

Although this battle brought some difficulties to Ma Su, it was not a big deal. But after the Wu army retreated, Ma Su's face became extremely solemn.

"No wonder Lian Shizai thought that it was not appropriate to provoke Jiangdong too much at this moment... This TM Jiangdong noble family is really desperate on the issue of xenophobia!" Ma Su looked at the corpses on the ground and the bloodstains all over the camp, and finally had a clear understanding of Jiangnan's self-defense.

This time, almost all of the two thousand Wu soldiers led by Zhuge Ke died in battle, and no one surrendered.

This would never happen in previous battles against the Eastern Wu. Only when the battlefield approaches the Jiangdong mainland, these Jiangdong soldiers will burst out with such high combat power.

This is only in Jiangbei, and even Ruxuwu has not been taken. If the subsequent battle of crossing the river to attack Yangzhou is launched, Ma Su dare not imagine how fierce their resistance will be...

"General, we lost more than a thousand soldiers in this battle, and killed about two thousand Wu soldiers in total. The camp and the unfinished city wall have suffered a certain degree of damage..." At this time, Liu Yin also found Ma Su and reported the results of the battle to Ma Su with a serious face.

It can be seen that this loss was also beyond Liu Yin's expectations.

"These Wu soldiers are too evil. I have never seen them so desperate in Jingzhou before..."

"Of course you can't see it, after all, Jingzhou is not their hometown." Ma Su shook his head and began to ponder.

"This is not going to work. If Dongwu launches two more night attacks, our preparations for more than half a month will be in vain."

"We have 30,000 people coming from afar, which is already a lot of pressure for Lianghuai. If we can't build the city as soon as possible, I'm afraid we will have to withdraw to Hefei after the harvest season is over."
