Chapter 723 - Seeking the Overall Situation

"The Battle of the Huai River... Tsk..."

For this battle, Jiang Zhuo was too impressed. This was the most difficult battle fought by Yuan Shu's camp in the Yuan Shu Emperor incident.

Cao Jun had no naval army, so at the beginning he could only rely on the tactics of crowds, and at the same time rush to build 50 pontoon bridges, preparing to cross the river indiscriminately and disrupt the defense of Yuan Shu's camp. But they didn't expect that there were 30,000 sailors of Yuan Shujun's army hidden in Shaobi Lake, which was connected to the Huai River!

When all 50 pontoon bridges were built for the player, the army of Cao Cao's camp began a full-scale attack. Yuan Shujun defended the defenders in a hurry, taking advantage of the enemy's strong attack through the narrow pontoon bridge, and fiercely consumed the living forces of Cao Cao's camp.

After two hours of fierce fighting, Cao Cao's camp lost more than 80,000 players and 5,000 elite Cao troops, and gradually suppressed Yuan Shu's camp and gained a firm foothold on the south bank of the Huai River. At this time, the 30,000 sailors of Yuan Shu's camp were dispatched and directly destroyed 50 pontoon bridges in one go.

The hundreds of thousands of players and 10,000 Cao Jun who had already rushed through the Huai River directly became lone soldiers and were completely wiped out by Yuan Shu's camp!

In the battle, Cao Cao's army was directly lost in half, and his vitality was greatly damaged. The victory of Yuan Shu's camp also made the players of the whole server confused, could it be that Yuan Shu would be the second wave talent or Zhang Jiao, who was defeated in history but survived in the game?

If it were normal history, although Cao's army was at a disadvantage, the number of troops of Yuan Shu's army obviously could not directly defend the entire Huai River. But now the forces of Cao Cao's camp are in an advantage, and as a result, the surge in the strength of Yuan Shu's army also allows them to calmly deploy defenses, which is completely a bug.

Even if Cao Cao crossed the Huai River at that time, it was also a question of whether he could capture the city in front of the heroic city of Shouchun City and the millions of players in the city.

In this case, Jiang Zhuomi met Zang Ba.

"Lord!" Zang Ba knelt down on one knee to Jiang Zhuo in his tent and respectfully sent Jiang Zhuo to the throne. Jiang Zhuo was not polite, "In the battle during the day, how did you lose?" ”

"10,000 troops have lost 3,000 people..."Zang Ba's face was a little ugly, you must know that the troops he brought were all elite, and the elite rate was as high as eighty! And in order to successfully cross the river, Cao Cao asked him to send all the elites, so he lost a full three thousand elite soldiers!

Jiang Zhuo nodded, the loss was a bit heavy, and he was thinking about whether to let Zang Ba do the next plan. If the plan succeeds, Zang Ba will inevitably become Cao Cao's henchman, but when the time comes, he will lose a lot of money, which is equivalent to Jiang Zhuo's loss of a fortune.

You must know that Lao Jiang is preparing to directly ignore Cao Cao's million-strong army and tens of millions of players when the Battle of Chibi occurs, and directly go north to join Cao Cao's troops when Zang Ba is sitting in Qingzhou and Xuzhou, and then attack Xudu to scare Cao Cao!

If Zang Ba's losses were too heavy, he wouldn't be able to help Jiang Zhuo much at that time.

After thinking about it, Jiang Zhuo still felt that it was better to let Zang Ba make meritorious contributions. He will soon be up to date with Sun Ce, and when the time comes, he will need someone to help him speak to the court and Cao Cao. More importantly, Jiang Zhuo has a very important plan in the [Yuan Shu Emperor Incident], and Zang Ba is also an important part of it, and he must gain Cao Cao's absolute trust.

After thinking about it, Jiang Zhuo asked Zang Ba to come over, "You go to Cao Cao to make a speech, just say that... And then you volunteered, carried out the plan, and then..."

After whispering for a while, Zang Ba had some doubts about Jiang Zhuo's plan, and he didn't think that this plan would succeed. But now that there are more than two million troops with nothing to do, there is a strategy with a success rate of two or three percent, which is obviously also optional.

......

"Is this possible?" Cao Cao frowned and turned his head to look at his good friend Guo Jia. Guo Jia stroked the mustache of his chin, frowned and thought about the feasibility of this plan, and finally nodded.

The main thing is that he knows the urine nature of the alien, and nearly 200,000 players have died in the fierce battles during the day, and those players will definitely not be willing to contribute anymore. If they can't break the deadlock on their own, this battle will probably be yellow.

"Lord, Xuan Gao asked to carry out this task!" Zang Ba knelt down on one knee, as an existence controlled by the perfection-level [Heart Control Gu], he had two sets of loyalty systems, and others couldn't tell if he had two hearts just by looking at his attribute panel.

Cao Cao nodded with satisfaction, "Then leave it to General Xuangao!" If the plan is successful, you will be the first to take credit for this battle! ”

"Whoa!"

Zang Ba took the order to send troops and left the tent, took his remaining 7,000 headquarters army, and transferred the 7,000 army out of the camp under the cover of sending scouts.

The Huai River is a large river, and the width of the river, the direction and the rapidity of the water flow are completely different in different places.

In the lower reaches of the Huai River, near Xiquyang County, the Huai River almost makes a 120-degree bend here. At the bend of the river, the current speed is particularly fast, and the water is stirred and whirlpooled from time to time.

In this kind of position, even a 100-stone boat would not dare to choose to dock in this kind of place, and it would easily be directly slapped ashore by the tide and run aground, damaging the bottom of the ship. In more serious cases, it may be swallowed directly by the sudden appearance of a large vortex.

Therefore, Yuan Shujun obviously did not pay enough attention to the deployment of this place, and even fixed garrison points were omitted, and only patrols that would be set up every 5 miles existed. On the other side, Zang Ba appeared here with an army of 7,000 at this time.

In his hand, each soldier held a piece of wood that was supposed to be used for the expansion of the camp, and was ready to float directly across the river here. Because of the bend in the river, the current will carry something from the north bank directly to the opposite bank.

As long as the soldier can seize the opportunity and climb ashore vigorously at the critical moment, he will not be carried away by the current. But this task is clearly difficult ...

"Give the order... In the upper 10 miles and 10 miles downstream of the opposite bank, players from Liu Bei's camp will come over to carry out killing missions and sabotage missions, which should be able to divert the attention of the 500-man patrol on the opposite bank.

Players want to get merit and rewards when they participate in the event, so if there is a disturbance in the upper and lower reaches, the patrol team on the opposite side will definitely go over to join in the fun. As for how many people will be left on the other side to continue patrolling duties, it depends on whether the leaders on the other side are cautious and smart enough.

Crossing the river in the torrent is no longer relying on strength, but luck, even Zang Ba, who is the boss of the Grand Commander, is at risk of being swept up by the current.

Therefore, Jiang Zhuo let Zang Ba take the lead, and he took the lead in carrying the wood into the water with the handsome flag and 10 henchmen. In fact, Jiang Zhuo had already entered the water one step ahead of time and quietly summoned the [Dragon Tortoise].
