Chapter 334 The Battle of Fuchun (7)

Zhao Lei looked around at everyone standing in the rain, feeling very guilty in his heart, and said loudly: "I'm sorry everyone, if I could have crossed the Zhejiang River earlier, you wouldn't have paid such a painful price, I..."

"My lord! We don't have any complaints. Even if the whole army is wiped out, we will never have any hatred for the lord. We only hate ourselves for being incompetent, not being able to defend the city firmly, and the brothers who have been killed will die and be injured. Injury. Now that the lord has come, we must not let those East Vietnamese people go, we want to avenge the dead brothers, please lead us to kill those East Vietnamese!" Jia Xu said with a look of resentment. shouted.

"My lord, please lead us to kill the Dongyue people and avenge the dead brothers!" All the people said in unison.

After Zhao Lei heard this, he immediately turned his face to Lei Mu who was beside him and said: "There are about [-] to [-] Dongyue people who have escaped. They must have lost the battle and will try to escape south to the swamp in Shanyue. Take it up. But before that, there will be a river in front of you, plus the sudden rainstorm, the water level of the river will definitely rise, and the Dongyue people will definitely gather on the river bank at this moment, unable to cross the river. Are you willing to lead your people to continue to follow? Shall I go after the East Vietnamese, General Remu?"

Hearing Zhao Lei calling himself a general, Lei Mu beat his chest with his right fist, bowed his head and shouted: "Respected governor of Yangzhou, you not only have an invincible warrior, but also you are very friendly to our Xiyue clan and treat them equally. Now At this moment, in our Xiyue heart, you are our hero, so we are willing to go through life and death with the hero. We Xiyue people never ask how many enemies there are, only ask where the enemies are, please give orders, my lord!"

Hearing that Lei Mu called his lord for the first time on the road, Zhao Lei smiled knowingly, and immediately shouted: "Okay! Then I officially order that Military Division Zhang Han sit in Fuchun to replace Military Division Jia Xu, Guo Jia, Zhou Yu, Zhao Yun, Ma Chao, Wen Chou, and Xu Chu, you all come with me, and by the way, call Dian Wei, who guards the upper reaches of the Zhejiang River, and the other generals will stay and build the city of Fuchun. This time we want to let the East Vietnamese see our Yangzhou Army and the West The true strength after being united!"

"No!" Everyone said.

"Okay, everyone, go get ready right away, the soldiers are precious, and we can attack." Zhao Lei said.

After the words fell, the crowd regained their spirits, asked the soldiers to bring their weapons, and brought several tall horses from the mountains and mountains from the horses left by the Dongyue people. After jumping on the horses, they followed Zhao Lei and galloped towards the south of the city. go.

At this time, the Zhejiang water was exactly as Zhao Lei expected, and the water level of the river suddenly rose a lot. Rolling, torrenting, the water flow is particularly fast.

On the bank of the river, seeing the choppy water, Boone fell into extreme confusion.He and some of his generals ran back and forth on the bank of the Zheshui River for a while, but they couldn't find a place or boat to cross the river.He looked up to the sky and let out a long sigh, and shouted loudly: "The river is so fast, and the rain is so heavy, is it really God's death for me, Boon? Is there really no way out?"

Just when Boone was in distress, he suddenly heard a large number of hoofbeats coming from behind. The heavy hoofbeats mixed with the stagnant water on the ground made a very strange sound.

"My lord, it's our people. Our people have retreated." The soldiers around Boone cheered.

Boon heard the excited shouts from his followers, but he couldn't get up his spirits. He pointed to the river in front of him and said loudly: "So what if people come back? How can we cross the river without a boat? Well, come on!" Dismount all those who came back, cut down trees in the nearby woods, and make rafts from the trees, and wait for the rain to subside, so I guess the river will recede by dawn, and we can cross the river!"

"No!" said the general.

After Boon's order was issued, about [-] riders escaped from Fuchun City. As soon as they ran to the river, they all got off their horses and went to the nearby woods with sabers to cut down trees.Boone reassembled [-] cavalry as his personal guards to guard him.

Zhao Lei led Zhao Yun, Ma Chao, Wen Chou, Xu Chu, Lei Mu and [-] Xiyue cavalry to gallop forward from Fuchun City for less than five miles. At this moment, a thought flashed through Zhao Lei's mind. Smaller raindrops came, and immediately shouted: "Stop!"

Following Zhao Lei's order, the Xiyue troops were shouted backwards in a relay style, and then the whole army stopped in an orderly manner.Zhao Lei has always been very satisfied with the obedience of the Xiyue cavalry.At the same time, Zhao Lei also hopes that one day, all the Yangzhou Army can do the same.

In the defense of Fuchun just now, none of the [-] West Vietnamese cavalry was missing. When they attacked the East Vietnamese from behind, none of them were injured. Although the number has an advantage, it is still vulnerable.Thinking of this, Zhao Lei turned his horse's head and looked at the uniformly dressed West Vietnamese cavalry behind him. Everyone became a little tired because of the long journey. spring!"

"What? Go back? Are you going to let those Dongyue people go like this?" Zhao Yun was taken aback, and immediately asked Zhao Lei.

As soon as Zhao Yun finished speaking, Zhao Lei showed a sinister smile. He patted the wet armor on his body and said loudly: "Everyone, don't worry, the Dongyue people can't run away. At this time, the big river blocked their way. Although the rain has become less However, the water level of the river will not drop in a short time, and a lot of accumulated water on the ground has not flowed out. We are going to chase the Dongyue people at this time. They will lose a lot of soldiers and horses in a fight, and it is not worthwhile. Now everyone is returning to Fuchun. The terrain in Fuchun City is relatively high, and there will not be too much water on the ground. Let's go back and rest for a night, and come back at dawn It is not too late to attack these tired East Vietnamese."

Zhao Yun and Ma Chao suddenly said in unison: "Brother (Master), do you want to attack the enemy halfway?"

"Hehe, smart! Instead of destroying the army and destroying those people, it is better to save the strength and defeat the enemy. As long as one person crosses the river, Tjima will know how powerful our Yangzhou army and Xiyue cavalry are behind Shanyue , the scale of the invasion of Yangzhou this time will also be weighed. If the enemy is wiped out, Tejima will definitely let his follow-up [-] troops go northward to Yangzhou together without knowing it, and attack on a large scale again. It will definitely be a catastrophe.”

"My lord is far-sighted, and his thoughts are so far-reaching, which is really incomparable to us." Ma Chao suddenly flattered Zhao Lei.

Zhao Lei chuckled and said, "If it wasn't for Lei Mu's words, I wouldn't have thought so far."

"Me? My lord, are you talking about me?" Lei Mu said excitedly when he heard Zhao Lei mentioning him, a little flattered and authentic.

Zhao Lei nodded, and said: "You said that your Xiyue clan respects heroes, and the people in Shanyue also respect the strong. If this is the case, then we should let some people go back to the back of Shanyue and let them publicize how powerful we are. In this way, people in Dongyue will be in awe of our Yangzhou army."

"Oh, I understand. My lord is using his aura to suppress those East Yue people." Ma Chao suddenly realized.

Zhao Lei smiled, and did not comment on Ma Chao's words, but sent an order to the back: "Pass my order, the rear team will become the front team, and go back to Fuchun to rest for the night!"

"The rear team has changed to the front team, go back to Fuchun and rest for the night..." The voice was conveyed again in a solitaire style. In a short while, thousands of cavalry turned their horses and turned back towards Fuchun City.

After returning to Fuchun, Zhao Lei asked for a place to be vacated for these thousands of mountain cavalry, so that they could take off their clothes and dry them, and sleep on comfortable beds, so that they could get a full rest.On the other hand, Zhao Lei personally inspected the wounded soldiers, and greeted them well.

The night was getting dark, but Zhao Lei's room was still lit. He placed a thin rope on the table in a curved shape, and placed a teacup near the rope, his eyes fixed on the table. Items on the teacup, and a few stones were placed around the teacup.

Zhao Lei held his chin, his eyes fixed on the items on the table, while the other hand kept placing a few stones back and forth.He used a rope as a drain, a teacup as a metaphor for the East Vietnamese cavalry, and stones as a metaphor for the West Vietnamese cavalry. He was thinking hard about what tactics he should use to defeat the approximately 2 East Vietnamese cavalry tomorrow.

After today's battle, more than 1 infantrymen of the Yangzhou Army he guarded in Fuchun died in battle, and the cavalry battalion lost another [-].Ma Chao's Tiexiong army lost more than half of them, and the sum of these was almost a one-to-one ratio to the number of East Vietnamese cavalry killed.
