Chapter 437: Cao Cao Pits Zhou Yu (Chapter 2)

At the same time, Xu Huang was shocked.

Zhou Yu's camp was in the east, and Xu Shu's camp was in the southeast. When Xu Shu attacked Zhou Yu, Xu Huang stood at the top of the city and saw it clearly.

Xu Huang is conceited for more than ten years, and he can be regarded as well-informed. But I have never seen such a formation.

Those twenty strange beasts, Xu Huang still didn't recognize them. When I saw it for the first time, I could imagine the shock. It wasn't until someone under his hand recognized that it was called an elephant that Xu Huang knew that this strange beast came from a place further south.

Tall and tall, the eagle banged on the door. Can be easily pushed to a house. These are the original words of the subordinates who introduced the elephant to Xu Huang.

There are still such strong beasts in the world, and they can be domesticated by people.

Today, seeing Zhou Yu's camp trembling under the impact of these twenty strange beasts. Xu Huang is empathetic. If Liu Feng has thousands or hundreds of such elephants.

So, how is this war going to be fought?

I saw Xu Huang's shock and worry. A partial general who introduced the elephant to Xu Huang before was relieved: "General rest assured, this elephant is wild and difficult to tame, and it is extremely difficult to tame." Even if it is Jiaozhou, there are only more than 100 at most. I'm afraid these twenty heads are also the limit of Xu Shu's side. In addition, if it is in the open area of the Central Plains, the elephant is unable to move. As long as you attack it with light horses, you will definitely be able to defeat the elephant. ”

This general obviously had some research on elephants, and knew that the power of elephants was more effective in the south, and when he went to the north, he could only be abused by cavalry.

Xu Huang was overjoyed when he heard this, and he was completely relieved, if there were really thousands of heads, the situation was really terrifying.

"But today there are no light horses, and there is no city to protect them. Obviously, it's time to get started. If Xu Shu defeats Zhou Yu, the next step is to attack Jiangling. Xu Huang let out a sigh.

"Even if you win a big victory, you will kill a thousand enemies and lose eight hundred. Zhou Yu is a famous general in Jiangdong, a genius who resisted the power of Cao Gong in the north, and there are 60,000 troops, which are easy and difficult to defeat. Therefore, even if Xu Shu wins, I am afraid that the loss will be very large. The general analyzed.

"Yes. There is also a Liu Bei next to him. I still have more than 10,000 soldiers capable of fighting in Gangneung. Even if he Liu Feng defeated Zhou Yu, he would not want to take Jiangling. I have completed the prime minister's entrustment to ensure that the north recovers its vitality. Xu Huang also felt that he was too worried, and Fu Er smiled.

"However, we can't easily relax our vigilance, close the city gates, and strengthen our vigilance." Xu Huang's face suddenly sank, and he said loudly.

"No." The general was shocked in his heart and nodded in agreement.

It was not only Xu Huang who was observing the battle between Xu Shu and Zhou Yu. Liu Bei, who was in the west of Jiangling City, also sent a large number of spies to find out the news.

"In a hasty decisive battle, Xu Yuanzhi really relied on something." In the big tent of the Chinese army, he continued to receive news from the spies, and Zhuge Liang sighed and said.

At the beginning, when I just heard the sound of drums, it startled Zhuge Liang and others. I thought Xu Shu was crazy, but I didn't expect that there was still something to rely on after all.

"When two tigers fight, one will be injured. Isn't that just right? Liu Bei said happily.

The current situation is very consistent with the strategic plan they have drawn up to sit on the sidelines. It's really in the middle of the slide.

Hit it, hit it hard. Liu Bei thought with some schadenfreude in his heart.

………………………

"Woooooooooooooo The elephants were very controlled by the mahouts, and they rushed towards the Zhou army camp very happily, with a roar like a whistle.

Let the soldiers, especially standing on the ladder, through the fence, keep an eye on the archers in front of them.

Xu Huang and Liu Bei can both look at this war from the perspective of a bystander, but they can't. Looking at the elephants that were happily rushing towards their camp, and the black pressure behind the elephants, the army of tens of thousands of people, countless people broke out in a cold sweat.

It was wet on the forehead, on the body, on the hands, everywhere.

On the contrary, the soldiers on Xu Shu's side became more and more imposing.

When the soldiers saw the elephant for the first time, they were also shocked, and many of them were weak in their hands and feet. I'm afraid that these twenty weird big guys will suddenly go crazy and rush towards them.

But after walking so many roads, I saw the elephant rushing forward, rushing forward, never backing down. The soldiers were immediately relieved.

Not only that, but the elephants in front of them are like a herd of moving walls, sheltering them from the wind and rain. Gives them a myriad of feelings of security.

At that time, from time to time, he raised his head and let out a "woo woo woo." The roar was like a trumpet in the army, and it was inspiring.

It can be a morale boost.

Therefore, the more towards the Zhou army camp, the morale of the soldiers became higher and higher.

Even if the quality of the heart is as strong as a broken barracks, I feel comfortable with the sense of security brought by these big guys.

The soldiers of the 800-broken barracks dispersed. They followed the elephants. Although he wears iron armor, he is not afraid of ordinary arrows.

But with such a big thing in front of you blocking the arrows, who would object?

On the one hand, morale is high, and on the other hand, morale is low. You can imagine the situation.

In the camp of the Zhou army, his beard and hair are all white, but he is still like a young general, with a straight backbone and an old general standing on horseback.

Constantly shouting some jī morale words, with jī morale.

But as the elephant got closer and closer, the morale of the Zhou soldiers continued to decline.

At this moment, Huang Gai even had a desire for the elephants to rush in as soon as possible. Because the unknown is frightening, if it is after the battle, the smell of blood is stabbed.

On the contrary, the morale of the soldiers rose.

Just as Huang Gai hoped, the elephants walked happily and happily, getting closer and closer, closer and closer.

Eighty meters, seventy meters. Some of the traps outside the camp gate couldn't stop them at all. Under the guidance of the mahout, one elephant after another walks through the trap or avoids it.

Rushed towards the deer outside the fence. Julu is a piece of wood that has been subtracted, and then under the support of the rest of the wood, a sharp thing that is diagonally outward.

This thing is an important thing to defend against cavalry, and it is usually built in large camps. Zhou Yu swallowed the army in Jiangling, and of course this huge deer was densely packed.

But the elephant's physique was there, and the soldiers were afraid that the deer would not be able to stop it.

Sixty meters. Until the elephant, after rushing to a distance of about sixty meters, a general who replaced Huang Gai in front of him gave a loud order: "Release the arrows." ”

The soldiers, who had already been wet with sweat, shot arrows almost reflexively.

"Whoosh." Countless arrows suddenly rained down and rushed towards Xu Shu's army, but when they hit the elephants, it was extremely disappointing.

Most of the arrows hit the pieces of iron, and after a clanging sound, they fell to the ground. Even if some of them were shot, the leather armor between the two pieces of iron would not be able to penetrate the elephant's skin.

It can only count as tickling. And it is impossible for Zhou Yu to shoot the elephant's eyes, because the elephant's eyes are almost on both sides. The odds of a shot are extremely low, extremely low.

Heavily armed elephants are almost mobile armored vehicles.

Under the desperate eyes of the archers, the elephants happily rushed towards the camp. Closely followed behind him were the 800 soldiers of the broken barracks.

"No, General, arrows are useless." The general in charge of the archers turned around and yelled at Huang Gai.

An atmosphere of despair came to my face.

"The archers all stand back, the spearmen take thirty steps back, spread out, and do not be trampled to death like fools by the elephants. When the elephants rush in, they slash backwards and let the elephants go berserk. Huang Gai's face was also ugly.

But at this time, there is really no way. Huang Gai gritted his teeth and used Zhou Yu's strategy of filling with human lives.

yelled.

The spies who reported back had already made it clear that the defense of the elephant's limbs was only built up with an iron cloth in front of it, which was almost held on the ground. Backwards are almost defenseless.

With the sharpness of their Wu knives, they should be able to cut elephants. It's enough to drive it crazy, and it's not the same as the enemy.

"Boom, boom." As the elephant approached, the tremor of the ground, the roaring roar, the seemingly chaotic sound, but it was very shocking.

"Here we go." On the head of Jiangling City, Xu Huang's eyes widened, staring into the distance. The distance is too far, and it is only a few small black sè dots.

But Xu Huang still wanted to see the results with his own eyes, whether this elephant could smash Zhou Yu's camp.

Soon, the result that Xu Huang wanted to see appeared, and the elephants, under the control of the mahouts, almost with brutal means, raised their front feet so gently and put them down gently. The huge deer that frightened the cavalry was trampled like paper paste.

"Boom." The entire battalion collapsed with a bang.

At the moment when the camp gate collapsed, twenty elephants, as well as the eight hundred soldiers of the Broken Army Battalion behind them, holding Chu swords, appeared in front of Huang Gai and the soldiers of the Zhou camp.

Each of them is extremely burly, full of iron armor, and his hands are full of knives. A blatant aura rushed towards him.

"Be careful, this is a broken barracks." Huang Gai's pupils shrank suddenly, but he suddenly remembered the rumors about the strongest foot soldier in the seven counties of Jiangxia, breaking the military camp.

It turned out that the weakness of the elephant's hind limbs was protected by these soldiers of the broken barracks. It seems that there is no weakness of iron armor protection, but if you want to get close to the elephant and cut the elephant through the protection of these broken army soldiers, it seems that it is no worse than shooting the elephant in the eye with an arrow.

Huang Gai's face was ugly for a while.

"The spear battalion is scattered, and the Wu knife battalion is up. The archers are at the end, shooting at the enemy. Huang Gai quickly changed his order and yelled.

Chu Dao is Liu Feng's trump card, in the past, Pan Zhang died of hatred under the sharp blade of Chu Dao. Fortunately, Pan Zhang brought back a severed knife, which allowed Jiangdong to forge a Wu knife that was even more sophisticated than the Chu knife.

Relying on the Wu sword, Jiangdong took advantage of a lot of siege warfare during this period. Today, I am going to fight with Jiangxia's Chu Dao, and I will teach you a high level.

It's a pity that Huang Gai didn't know that Cao Cao's tiger and leopard ride was miserably killed by Liu Feng's Chu knife. Because of this sense of humiliation, Cao Cao blocked the news and secretly destroyed countless black knives.

Under Huang Gai's order, the spearmen retreated, and the Wu Dao battalion moved forward, brazenly tǐng towards the broken barracks.

Wu Dao consumed a lot in this war. There are only about 10,000 handles left in stock. Like Liu Feng's side, those who are equipped with Wu Dao are quite elite elites.
