The Rebellious Officials and Traitors of the Late Han Dynasty

Chapter 429: Can We Fight?
At this time, the guards rushed in.

"My Lord, General, a large group of troops are coming to attack us. The news from the Jingzhou navy is that the enemy's reinforcements have arrived."

When Lu Xun and Cao Ang heard this, their faces suddenly changed.

Although Gan Ning had just been defeated, the Chaisang Navy Camp had also been destroyed, and there were still remnants of the enemy resisting in the camp. Once the enemy attacked, they would be attacked from both inside and outside, and the camp would be in danger.

"Tell Zhao Yun and Zhou Tai to stop the enemy's attack and order the army to wipe out the enemy in the camp as soon as possible."

Lu Xun looked solemn and gave orders loudly.

He is a little anxious now. It is okay that the navy camp suffered heavy losses, but if it is broken by the enemy for a second time, wouldn't he, Lu Xun, become a laughing stock of the world?
It was such a pity that Zhuge Liang and others planned for such a long time, but in the end they failed because of themselves.

Several warships were trapped together, Gan Ying was covered in blood, he could no longer tell whether it was his own or someone else's. Hundreds of cavalrymen gathered around him, most of them were also injured.

"Brothers, cooperate with each other and don't give up. The general will definitely come to rescue us. The Cavalry will never abandon their comrades."

Gan Ying roared loudly.

In fact, he didn't know whether Gan Ning would come to rescue him, but he would never let the enemy have an easy time. If they wanted to kill him, they would have to pay the price.

There was no way Gan Ying would surrender.

"Kill the thief."

The brave cavalrymen around him also roared after hearing this.

"Who says I have no clothes? I share my clothes with you. When the king raises his army, I will sharpen my spears and halberds. I share the same hatred with you."

Gan Ying shouted loudly.

"Who says I have no clothes? I share my clothes with you. When the king raises his army, I will sharpen my spears and halberds. I share the same hatred with you."

The soldiers around him also shouted loudly, and the sound echoed throughout the entire navy camp and resounded through the sky, greatly boosting the morale of the entire cavalry army.

After hearing this, Lu Xun and Cao Ang looked even worse. They had not expected that the enemy's morale was so high. In such a situation, they were still struggling hard.

"Kill them, kill them quickly."

Cao Ang roared loudly, his handsome face flushed red. He felt the murderous intent. If he could not deal with these enemies in the shortest time, he could hardly imagine whether the navy camp could be saved.

"Who says I have no clothes? I share my clothes with you. When the king raises his army, I will sharpen my spears and halberds. I share the same hatred with you."

At this time, there was another roar from the river. Cao Ang looked and saw countless ships rushing towards the navy camp, with the battle flag of the Cavalry Army hanging high on the flagship.

Wherever the warships went, Cao's army was defeated and no one dared to stop them.

"Why couldn't Zhao Yun and Zhou Tai stop it?" Lu Xun was immediately furious.

We were about to wipe out the enemies inside, but now another group of enemies jumped out. How could we kill them? If things went wrong, the navy camp would be breached again.

"Bo Yan, what should we do now?"

Cao Ang asked nervously.

"Retreat, the enemy has already invaded."

Lu Xun smiled bitterly.

The Cavalry was like crazy, fighting hard. The coalition forces blocking their way fled one after another, and no one dared to step forward to stop them. They saw the enemy's navy was about to charge into the camp.

"Reinforcements, our reinforcements are coming."

When Gan Ying and the others saw the familiar flag, they immediately showed ecstasy on their faces. They had already given up hope, but they did not expect that at this time, Gan Ning would come back to kill them again.

Sima Yi also wore a set of armor and held a sword in his hand, watching Gan Ning charging into the enemy army, as if to avenge the humiliation of the defeat just now. The Cao army had obviously anticipated this, and was attacked from both sides by the Cavalry Army. They were in a panic for a while, and some ships were unable to dodge and were smashed in half by the Cavalry Army's warships. A large number of soldiers fell into the water, screaming.

The entire naval camp was in chaos, with only the sound of shouting and killing resounding through the sky.

Lu Xun and Cao Ang were stunned by the situation in front of them for a moment. The situation changed too quickly. These cavalry soldiers seemed to be crazy, fighting hard, resulting in heavy losses for the army.

Unfortunately, Liu Bei and Sun Quan's troops have not yet received any reinforcements, and it seems that they are fighting alone, which makes them very angry.

What they didn't know was that it wasn't that Zhao Yun and Zhou Tai didn't want to rescue, but that the two of them were stopped by the navy led by Wen Pin. They didn't seek merit, but only to avoid mistakes.

No matter how the coalition forces attacked, he just tried his best to resist and forcibly delayed the coalition forces' attack, which allowed Gan Ning to have no worries.

Gan Ning was like a madman. He personally led the army, holding a sword in his hand, and jumped into Cao's warships. He killed the enemies in front of him frantically as if he was cutting melons and vegetables.

The river surface was dyed red with blood and a large number of soldiers were killed.

Finally, Cao's army, which had been fighting for a long time, began to run out of energy and gradually retreated to the shore.

"Brother."

Gan Ying finally met Gan Ning. At that moment, tears flowed down Gan Ying's face. She almost died from her brother. This feeling of surviving a disaster was really good.

"Can you fight?"

Gan Ning asked loudly with anger in his eyes.

"Can fight."

Gan Ying replied without hesitation.

Not only Gan Ning felt aggrieved, but Gan Ying and his comrades also felt aggrieved.

When had the Cavalry Army ever suffered such a defeat? Tens of thousands of troops suffered heavy losses. It was an unprecedented defeat. If they did not kill the enemy in front of them, this shame would accompany them for the rest of their lives.

"Can you fight?"

Gan Ning looked at the other soldiers with his tiger eyes again.

"Can fight."

The other cavalrymen also roared, their eyes flashing with hatred. It was so frustrating that they were defeated at this time.

"Go ahead and kill all the enemies in front of you to wash away the shame that has been hurled upon us."

Gan Ning let out a long roar and personally led the army to charge. The soldiers' eyes were bloodshot. They waved their swords and pounced on Cao's army, roaring like tigers coming down the mountain.

Seeing the crazy appearance of the Cavalry Army, Cao's army finally felt scared and some soldiers began to flee.

Seeing this, Lu Xun and Cao Ang on the shore let out a sigh.

It is impossible to win this battle. If the army stays here, it will only increase unnecessary casualties among the soldiers. In this case, it is better to withdraw temporarily to preserve one's own strength and wait for the opportunity to fight the enemy again.

"Withdraw your troops!"

Lu Xun finally gave the order to retreat and decisively abandoned the Chaisang naval camp.

Cao Ang also sighed, and under the protection of his personal soldiers, he retreated towards Chaisang City.

The two had to admit that they had lost the battle.

Although Gan Ning lost a lot of men, Cao's army also suffered a lot of losses.
