Three Kingdoms: Do you want me to get out of here? Liu Bei, you wait

Chapter 195: Determined Zhou Yu, Ma Chao Driven Crazy by the Eighteen Riders of Yanyun

This goal sounds simple.

In fact, the combat quality requirements for the army are very high.

In the eyes of many people, it is an almost impossible task.

When they heard about this mission, Gao Shun and Xu Chu frowned immediately.

Compared to the serious expressions on their side.

The expression of Luo Yi, the leader of the Eighteen Riders of Yanyun, did not change from beginning to end.

After respectfully clasping your fists and saluting.

Without even thinking twice, I accepted the task.

It wasn't just him who followed along with the orders.

The soldiers below did not show any emotion at all throughout the whole process, just like robots.

This is exactly what makes the Eighteen Riders of Yanyun so terrifying.

It's not only about enforcing orders, but also about their absolute obedience.

As long as the superiors give the order, they will not retreat even if they fight to the last soldier!

And just as the Eighteen Riders of Yanyun received the order.

At the same time as he took the initiative to attack Ma Chao's army in Xiliang,

Dongwu, Sanjiangkou location.

The Eastern Wu army of 10, led by Zhou Yu himself, also began to attack Sanjiangkou.

In the military tent, Zhou Yu was sitting in the main seat, looking handsome and heroic, with a huge horse and a golden sword, and was giving orders on the sand table.

They were determined to win this battle.

However, he didn't expect that just now, Gan Xingba was given a new surprise attack mission.

Back foot skills.

Lu Su and Lu Zijing rushed into the tent and handed him a letter.

Listen to his latest military report.

Zhou Yu's expression also changed drastically, and he asked again with confusion.

"What did you say?"

"Cao Cao's army is heading south to guard Sanjiangkou?"

"Zijing, are you sure this news is true and not hearsay?"

"How can we rely on hearsay when it comes to military and national affairs? If you don't believe me, you can check it yourself. This is the intelligence that has just been sent from the front. The scouts came here in an emergency 800 miles away. It says that Cao Cao and the talented scholar Qilin came here together."

As Lu Su spoke, he immediately delivered the military report that he had been holding in his hand to Zhou Yu.

Zhou Yu reached out and took it.

His eyes quickly scanned the content above.

But as soon as he finished reading it, he immediately shook his head like a wave drum and denied it flatly.

“No way, this is impossible.

This must be a trick of that genius Qilin!"

"Which is more important, Sanjiangkou or Xuchang? Even a three-year-old child knows how to choose.

How could Cao Cao abandon his base in Xuchang and lead his army south?

Isn't this equivalent to handing over the emperor and his own base to Xiliang Ma Chao?"

Zhou Yu spoke with certainty.

"Who knows, maybe it's the advice of the talented scholar Qilin. He may have another way to deal with Xiliang Ma Chao?"

Lu Su replied, but his voice sounded lacking in confidence.

If it were anyone else.

He might actually have the same opinion as Zhou Yu.

But this time he is facing a talented person.

Think of this guy.

Lu Su always felt inexplicably guilty.

There is no way, a man's reputation is like a tree's shadow, and this guy's previous record is really too outrageous.

Especially his amazing record of entering Eastern Wu alone and successfully abducting Sun Shangxiang and Xiao Qiao.

When he faced this person again, there was no way he could treat him with a normal attitude.

It's not an exaggeration to say that I was on full alert at this moment.

In fact, Zhou Yu was not much better than Lu Su.

After hearing what he said, they fell silent again and paced anxiously in the room.

But when he looked up again after a moment, he was still firm in his previous opinion and added seriously.

"There is another way to deal with it. How to deal with it?

That's a full 10-man army, unless he really has some magic trick of turning beans into soldiers.

Otherwise, how could he fight against them with only the 20,000 elite soldiers in Xuchang?

Are they going to use the same old trick again?

Use the method used in Nanjun before, lure the enemy into a trap, and then attack with fire?

If this is true, even if Ma Chao really fell for it, wouldn't the entire Xuchang be burned down?

The price paid this time is probably no less than what Ma Chao would have paid had he directly occupied Xuchang, right?
That was Xuchang, not Nanjun. Cao Cao spent a lot of effort to build this base camp. Burning this city would be more painful to Cao Cao than losing 10 Sanjiangkou. "

Lu Su asked, "So the Grand Commander is saying that this information is actually false?"

Zhou Yu nodded and said seriously,

"That's right, huh! Such a big fuss is nothing more than an attempt to make us retreat in the face of difficulties.

This Su villain has a good plan. He actually hopes that a letter can make Dongwu retreat. If his plan succeeds, won't Dongwu become a laughing stock in the world? "

In fact, Lu Su had already been persuaded by Zhou Yu, but he still felt a little uneasy and reminded him.

"That's true, but with Qilin here, we always expect the unexpected. If Cao Cao's army is really attacking us this time, aren't we in danger?"

While he was still a little hesitant, Zhou Yu in front of him had made up his mind.

While he was speaking, he drew out the long sword from his waist.

He cut off a corner of the desk in front of him with a sword and said angrily.

"There is no battlefield without risks, Zijing, please don't say anything more, I have made up my mind!
In this battle, I, Zhou Gongjin, must help Dongwu no matter what, and help me, Zhou Gongjin, to avenge my previous humiliation!"

At the end of the conversation, I thought of all the humiliations I had suffered.

The expression on his face inevitably became a little more ferocious.

He was the most handsome man in Jiangdong, but someone stole his wife.

If he did not retaliate for this humiliation, how would Zhou Gongjin have the face to stand between heaven and earth?
Look at the ferocious look on his face.

When Lu Su thought of the past, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Seeing that the other party had made up his mind, it was useless to persuade him, and he could only bury all his worries in his heart again.

Pray secretly.

All his previous worries were just groundless.

Fortunately, this worry did not last long.

Soon, with the successive victories in the Battle of Sanjiangkou, Lu Su forgot about them.

After all, the troops stationed at Sanjiangkou were merely Cao’s garrison.

There are not many counselors who can do it.

The number of people was not enough to match Zhou Yu's 10 troops, and their IQ was also crushed by the enemy.

Naturally, they could only passively defend themselves, without any chance of counterattack.

And they have been winning battle after battle.

At the same time, Ma Chao and his gang from Xiliang, who were rushing from Xiliang to Xuchang, felt extremely depressed.

During this period of time.

The constant harassment from the Eighteen Riders of Yanyun.

This made Ma Chao and his men in Xiliang feel exhausted both physically and mentally.

At this moment, Ma Chao was sitting in the main seat in the military tent, listening to the report from below that the Eighteen Riders of Yanyun had once again raided the food and supplies in the rear, killed thousands of his elite soldiers from Xiliang, and left without any harm.

He became furious and finally could not bear it any longer. He slammed the table and started scolding the soldiers below.

"They are just a bunch of good-for-nothings!" "They are just a few hundred people, but they have caused our 10-strong army to be disturbed day and night. If this gets out, won't everyone in the world laugh at us?"

"What do you do for food?"

"Why are you still fighting Xuchang with this level?!"

Ma Chao was furious.

This time, hearing him speak like this, everyone below felt extremely aggrieved.

He hurriedly bowed and started explaining again.

"We can't do anything about it, General. It's not that we don't want to try hard, but these guys are all highly skilled in martial arts, and they come and go like the wind. We can't catch up with them even if we want to."

"That's right. Besides, it's not that we can't do anything to him. General, aren't you also helpless against these guys?"

"you……"

This light sentence made Ma Chao choke.

The originally handsome face immediately turned red.

He gritted his teeth and was about to say something else.

At the critical moment, it was his confidant Pound who stepped forward and smoothed things over.

"Okay, okay, stop arguing."

"It has already happened. The most important thing right now is to think about how to solve the problem. What's the point of arguing about who is right and who is wrong? Even if you argue until you are red in the face, it will not help, right?"

"Besides, I don't think this problem will bother us for too long."

"Oh? What do you mean, Brother Lingming? Have you thought of a way to deal with the 18 riders of Yanyun?!"

Ma Chao turned around and asked, his eyes shining.

I thought I would get some profound advice from him.

But she didn't want to listen to him, but Pound shook his head very decisively.

"No."

"what?"

Ma Chao looked confused, and when he came back to his senses, he asked again with some confusion.

"Since there is no solution, why did Brother Ling Ming just swear that this problem will not bother us for too long?"

Ma Chaoyue said, his brows furrowing tighter and tighter.

Just when he thought Pound had made a slip of the tongue.

Seeing everyone's reaction, Pound laughed instead.

Then he opened his mouth and explained solemnly.

"My Lord, have you forgotten where our destination is?

After another 7 days of journey, we arrived in Xuchang.

Why have we been constantly harassed by the Yanyun 18 Riders during this period of time?
To put it bluntly, it was because our army had traveled a long distance and had no safe places to rely on that gave them the opportunity to harass us constantly.

But when we arrived in Xuchang, the situation was reversed.

The Eighteen Riders of Yanyun are, frankly speaking, just a unit of a hundred men. No matter how powerful they are, can they stop us from attacking Xuchang?
Moreover, the more the enemy used crazy technicians like the Eighteen Riders of Yanyun, the more it exposed their own insufficient manpower and their fear of fighting us head-on.

My Lord, why don't you think carefully about whether this is the truth?"

Pound's speech ended.

Ma Chao, who was originally frowning in the main seat, suddenly felt enlightened.

"Yup!"

"Alright, alright. Brother Lingming is a man of great insight. He saw through the cowardly nature of Cao's army at a glance."

At this moment, not only did the doubts in my heart disappear, but I also regained my spirits.

With the same swipe, he drew out the long sword from his waist.

With eyes full of excitement, he gave orders to his subordinates.
Order his troops to march overnight and rush to Xuchang as soon as possible to fight a decisive battle with the thief Cao and the talented scholar Qilin.

With this expectation, three days later, they finally had a head-on collision with the troops led by Chief Su Chen.

After seeing with his own eyes that Su Chen only led more than 20,000 infantrymen.

Ma Chao's heart, which had been hanging in the air, was finally at ease.

I even feel that I have secured victory.

Not only did he open bottles of champagne in his tent, he even rode his horse to the front of the two armies and openly tried to persuade Su Chen, the world-famous talent, to surrender.

As the saying goes, a wise bird chooses the right tree to roost in. Cao Cao's situation was hopeless.

I hope he can be used by me to fight against Cao Cao.

This time his speech was passionate and sounded very reasonable to him.

Su Chen felt at a loss whether to laugh or cry after hearing this.

Look at Ma Chao standing opposite, dressed in a brocade robe and looking very powerful.

I just feel that this guy exudes the three big words "greenhorn" from head to toe.

He immediately opened his mouth and asked back with interest.

"Ma Chao, you are the descendant of a famous general of the Han Dynasty. Today, you are actually advising me to betray the court? Don't you feel ashamed?"

And listen to his questions.

Ma Chao sneered and raised his head.

"ridiculous!"

"Cao is just a treacherous official who abuses his power. How can he represent the imperial court?"

"The emperor is in Xuchang. You are treasoning by coming here with your army."

Su Chen shook his head, realizing that this guy was just a fool.

I'm too lazy to waste words with him.

With a wave of his hand, he ordered Xu Chu, Gao Shun and others to lead the army forward.

Look at the way he behaves.

Ma Chao also knew that it was useless to say more.

After snorting coldly, he finally pulled out the spear behind him and roared.

Launched a charge.

"Well, it seems that you are stubborn and want to join forces with that thief Cao. If that's the case, then I will help you!"

"This time I will send you to the west. This will also let that thief Cao know how painful it is to lose a loved one and a beloved general!"

"Soldiers, follow me and kill!"

"kill!!"

The killing is deafening!

The entire battlefield was in chaos.

However, the expected one-sided battle did not occur.

On the one hand, it was naturally because of the continuous raids for several days, and the Eighteen Riders of Smoke and Cloud harassed Ma Chao in turns. Ma Chao's 100,000 elite soldiers had long been exhausted. It could be said that they were at the end of their strength.

On the other hand, Su Chen's subordinates are indeed elite soldiers and generals.

It's not just the Eighteen Riders of Yanyun.

The Tiger Guards under Xu Chu and the Xianzhen Camp led by Gao Shun were all fierce generals who were capable of fighting one hundred men at a time.

At this moment, they were leading the charge.

Due to various factors, the 2 soldiers were actually able to fight on equal terms with Ma Chao's 10 elite troops.

After the first day of fighting, neither side gained any advantage.

After returning to the camp, Ma Chao was naturally extremely frustrated with the result.

"What a talented man! I didn't expect he has so many elite soldiers and generals under his command. With only 20,000 soldiers and horses, he can resist my 100,000-strong army. What should I do?

Is my wish to avenge my father going to be in vain? Is my attack on Xuchang a wasted trip? ? "

As he sat down, he muttered to himself that he was beginning to feel like giving up.

Seeing him like this, Pang De immediately bowed and tried to persuade him.

"My lord, don't worry."

"We didn't win the first battle today mainly because we were exhausted after days of raiding, while the soldiers under Su Chen were well rested and took advantage of us."

"We just need to let the soldiers rest for two days, and then fight again tomorrow. We will surely be able to defeat Su Chen's army in one fell swoop and kill them all without leaving a single piece of armor behind!"

It was obvious that he saw the key to the defeat at a glance.
