From Guangling all the way to the north, there is a White Horse Lake near Huai'an, which is the Huai'an Golden Lake with the reputation of "taking Chu guests to travel more, and the first state in the southeast is magnificent", which is unusually magnificent and magnificent.

Zhou Yu broke through all the way, led the military horses to kill here, and suddenly waved his right hand and ordered the soldiers to stop and camp in place.

Cheng Pu, who accompanied him, was a little puzzled, and came to ask, Zhou Yu said: "The front is in Huai'an, although Tao Qian is weak, but it is impossible to sit back and watch us drive straight in, and we will send heavy troops to guard it, and there are mostly woods around this White Horse Lake, I am afraid that there will be an ambush, so it is better to be careful." ”

Cheng Pu nodded, the march and battle should be on guard everywhere, be careful, Zhou Yu has won every battle along the way, and he has already been recognized by him, and immediately said: "It's okay, the lake here is clear, it is the best water source, and it saves a lot of trouble!" ”

The White Horse Lake is magnificent, even in autumn, it has a unique flavor, and the Jiangdong soldiers like water the most, and they are overjoyed to see this, and their fatigue over the past few days has been reduced a lot, and their mood is much better.

When Zhou Yu brought back Sun Jian's corpse, the whole Jiangdong was in mourning, and the will of revenge was raging, and he got a little vent along the way, and finally settled down a little.

Zhou Yu looked around, the north is the White Horse Lake, it is inevitable that there is a large woods, there is no sound around, calm and beautiful, it is really a treasure.

Suddenly, Zhou Yu saw that there were many birds hovering in the lake, but he never saw them fall into the woods, his eyes flashed, he already had some calculations, and smiled coldly.

Birds do not enter the forest and do not return to the nest, which means that there must be someone in ambush in the woods, and the number is not small, when the Xuzhou army is here!

Turning around quietly, Zhou Yu found Cheng Pu again and told him about the matter, Cheng Pu suddenly took the case: "It's so good, wait for me to burn the woods with a fire, and force the Xuzhou army to come out to fight!" ”

The fighting spirit in his heart rose, and he wanted to fight immediately, but was stopped by Zhou Yu: "The general must not be reckless, and listen to me......

Zhou Yu told everything he thought in his heart, Cheng Pu shook his head again and again, his face was shocked, and he said: "It's still Mr. Wise, I almost made a big mistake!" ”

Zhou Yu smiled and gave a few more words, and Cheng Pu led a team of men and horses to walk in the direction of Baima Lake to obtain clear water for the army, while the army began to bury pots and prepare a full meal.

In the woods, Cao Bao led more than 200,000 people in Xuzhou to ambush them, and he was a little impatient when he saw this: "These Jiangdong people are so interested, they are still in the mood to rest and eat?" ”

Someone flattered: "I guess they want to be full of dead ghosts!" Mr. Gongtai has already made a plan, once the Jiangdong army passes through here, we can launch a surprise attack, cut off its back road, and then cooperate with Mr. Gongtai's soldiers and horses in Huai'an, head to tail, will make this group of Jiangdong army have no return! ”

Cao Bao laughed lightly a few times, eager to kill it immediately, but first, it was not in line with the plan, and secondly, he was afraid of the large number of Jiangdong troops, so he didn't dare to act rashly, at this time, he only heard a roar from Cheng Pu's side: "This water is not clear enough, and there is a drum smell, let's go farther away to get water!" ”

I heard someone again: "But in this way, the journey back and forth will be long, and I am afraid that the pot will be burned by then!" ”

Cheng Pu said: "What's this? Just call a few more people! ”

At that moment, he turned around to greet him, and several teams of soldiers and horses left the camp, each holding a blade and tool, and went to farther away to get water, Cao Bao frowned, and his heart was about to move: "This gang has 350,000 horses, do you want to sneak out and eat them first?" ”

After thinking about it, this idea was still rejected, compared to 350,000 horses, he cares more about the Jiangdong army, and if he wants to make meritorious service, he must also make a big deal!

In his opinion, the Jiangdong Army will inevitably raise troops after eating this meal, because the Jiangdong Army has no idea of camping for a long time, and then he can launch an ambush and settle the throne in one fell swoop!

"It's a pity that we don't have food to eat, so it's cheaper!" Cao Bao did not move and continued to hide.

After a long time, but for a long time I didn't see Cheng Pu's army returning, there was some commotion in the Jiangdong army camp, the soldiers gathered together, and seemed to be complaining, Cao Bao was about to laugh, and suddenly a northeast wind blew, blowing off a piece of the leaves that were not too dense, which made him secretly glad, fortunately he hid secretly enough, otherwise it was really possible to be discovered, this day is really strange, the north wind hula out of the day without stopping!

Just as he was complaining to himself, his complexion suddenly changed slightly, and his nose sniffed twice: "Why is there a burnt smell?" ”

Someone flattered and laughed: "Isn't it that Jiangdong Jun really burned the pot?" ”

Everyone laughed secretly, but Cao Bao shook his head: "Impossible, it's the northeast wind blowing now, and the smell of the Jiangdong Army will never blow here!" ”

As he spoke, he turned his head blankly, but his complexion changed instantly, it turned out that not far behind him, a thick smoke had risen at some point, and there was a faint wave of heat, which made him frightened, and said in a lost voice: "Mountain fire? Not good, there was a fire in the rear! ”

They are facing the White Horse Lake, which is in the north of the whole forest, and now the northeast wind is blowing, if there is a fire in the rear, and the fire will take advantage of the wind, will they not bear the brunt?

"Let's go see how the fire goes?" Cao Bao anxiously sent several people to investigate, and soon the news came back, and the mountain fire was incomparable!

Cao Bao's eyes widened: "His grandmother's, how could such a big fire suddenly start, isn't this pure trouble!" ”

Anyway, he couldn't stay here, he waved his hand and said softly: "Slowly move out of the woods and retreat in the direction of Huai'an, remember to be careful, don't let the Jiangdong dog notice!" ”

Everyone nodded, their faces frightened, such a big fire was spreading, they wanted to flee immediately, but they still had to hide their tracks, lightly, it was really panicking.

The army began to act, but before it had gone far, countless arrows suddenly shot in from outside the forest, and immediately some people were killed by arrows, letting out a miserable scream.

Cao Bao was stunned, this direction is the rear of Xuzhou, there can be no enemy army, so what's going on, could it be that the friendly army was injured by mistake?

Before he could react, a scout suddenly ran in front of him, and said urgently: "Oh no, General, there is also a fire in front, Cheng Pu is waiting for people to block the way, and arrows are raining down at this moment!" ”

Cao Bao's complexion changed again and again, no matter how stupid he was at this time, he knew what was going on, presumably Cheng Pu's appearance just now was pretended, it must have been the Jiangdong Army that had already discovered his ambush, deliberately kept Cheng Pu away from the surveillance, set fire to the back, and cut off his way back, ready to catch turtles in an urn!

Cao Bao's face was already pale, and he couldn't think about how Jiang Dongjun knew that he had saved it, so he hurriedly waved his hand: "Quick, rush out!" ”
