Chapter 1912 Fierce battles under the city, forcing each other


    Such a brutal and fierce battle outside Jiangxia, even veterans who have fought a hundred battles, have little experience. Neither side thought that the other side could survive until now. Every collision is so fierce, but no matter what, the opponent in front of him cannot repel!


    An attack, in addition to the collision of blood and flesh, is also a game of morale and will between the soldiers on both sides. Rows of soldiers have been beaten to pieces, and their bodies are full of scars.


    Even Cao Cao''s Qingzhou soldiers were exhausted after repeatedly bearing the attacks of Jiangdong soldiers. However, under Cao Ren''s on-site dispatch, in the interval before each Jiangdong soldier''s attack, the soldiers in the front row were replaced. When they got down, the pawns who were lucky enough to be injured but not dead were dragged together and sent to the two sides for temporary repair.


    Thanks to the military doctor system implemented by General Hussars, Cao Cao followed suit here, and a dozen military doctors walked among the wounded soldiers to treat and bandage them. And those replaced soldiers, even if they were not injured, many of them were exhausted, leaning or lying down, and some even took off the damaged armor on their bodies, and then twisted their close-fitting robes. It was as if it was fished out of the water, and the sweat that had been soaked in the water suddenly poured out.


    Cao Cao did not expect that a tentative interception turned out to be like this. The strength of the Jiangdong soldiers and the almost suicidal attack also made Cao Cao suspicious, wondering whether he had fallen into Zhou Yu''s trap, whether the surrounding area What''s the backhand? Could it even be that Jiangdong didn''t fall for the trick, but sent reinforcements instead, copying his own back?


    Zhou Yu pressed the sword on his waist, and stood under the banner with a cold face, in order to express his determination not to take a step back. He himself was close to being on the front line, holding down the front line of soldiers. If it wasn''t for this, the Jiangdong soldiers who had repeatedly pounced on Cao Cao''s solid formation would be scattered and collapsed in front of Cao Cao''s hard formation!


    Similarly, the evacuated soldiers and wounded were repaired not far from Zhou Yu''s banner. Even if many people were not injured, they were exhausted from the battle, lying on the ground and unable to get up. Some of the soldiers were walking around with water bags filled with salt, and when they saw soldiers who were sweating and tired, they helped them up, and then poured a few mouthfuls of salt water...


    The guards beside Zhou Yu looked at the two armies who were still fighting hard in front, and they couldn''t help showing a little nervous expression on their faces. Huang Gai stood beside Zhou Yu. In the whole army, maybe he and Zhou Yu didn''t have any fear on their faces. They just stared coldly at the fierce battle that was going on not far away!


    Zhou Yu brought fewer soldiers than Cao Cao, but if he was afraid of avoiding a frontal confrontation from the beginning, he would be noticed by Cao Cao. Not only would it not reduce the confrontation, but it would stimulate Cao Cao''s thinking of hunting whales, just like weakness It''s like the easier it is to attract bullying, and Zhou Yu''s tough attitude now makes Cao Cao can''t help but weigh it.


    Zhou Yu raised his hand and pointed forward. Amidst the rumble of war drums, another group of soldiers rushed forward!


    This group of replacements who went to the front to fight is the most powerful Zhou Yu''s private soldiers in Zhou Yu''s army. These private soldiers belong to Zhou Yu''s personal, wearing black iron heavy armor, long spears and large shields, and some even carry iron hammers And the battle axe, both in terms of destructive power and defensive power, are several times stronger than ordinary soldiers.


    Crashing into the ranks of Cao''s army, it immediately put great damage and pressure on Cao Cao''s front. Although under the counterattack of Cao Cao''s Qingzhou soldiers, some of these Zhou Yu''s heavy armored soldiers were injured, and their battle armor was stained red with blood. What''s more, in the fierce confrontation, the opponent cut off the silk sash of the armor plate, and the iron plate was dangling on the inner lining of the leather armor, but the better defensive ability and skilled fighting skills still made him feel better. They gradually gained the upper hand.


    These heavy armored infantry, holding a large shield, against rows of spears and spears, pushed forward desperately. They covered the rest of the Jiangdong soldiers around them, brandishing their weapons and slowly approaching, oppressing Cao Cao''s line.


    The defensive power and destructive power of these heavy armored soldiers are astonishing. When they broke into Cao Jun''s formation, they saw Cao Jun soldiers'' spear shafts snap off and their long knives leave their hands, and some of them were directly killed on the spot by wielding sharp machetes. Slashing, severed limbs, flying in the air!


    Cao Jun stabbed forward with his spears and spears desperately. Some of the spears pierced through the shields of these heavy armored men and pierced into the armor of these heavy armored men, but they roared and smashed the barrels of the guns, even Still waving the broken gun handle, he continued to charge inside!


    Under the attack of such ferocious heavy armored soldiers, Qu Chang, the commander of Cao Jun on the front line, could not help shouting out with sweat or blood on his face: "Come to help!" Come to the reinforcements! I can''t stand it anymore! 』


    Seeing that the momentum was wrong, Cao Ren immediately led the guards around him to meet him!


    Cao Ren''s physique is thicker than ordinary soldiers, and such a thick body undoubtedly has an advantage in ground combat, blocking it like an iron wall.


    Amidst the blood and flesh flying, Cao Ren rushed forward, and with a knife in his pocket, he slashed at the Jiangdong heavy armored soldier who had just beheaded a Cao army!


    The heavy armored soldier tried to raise his shield to block, but with a loud noise, the large shield covered with cowhide broke under Cao Ren''s huge force, and the heavy armored soldier couldn''t bear the strength and fell to the sky!


    With the strength of his thick waist, Cao Ren unscrewed the long knife and swept it out. He immediately cut down three or four Jiangdong soldiers, and immediately blocked the gap in the front line. The guards behind Cao Ren roared together, raised their knives, spears and shields, and rushed forward. Amidst the jaw-dropping sounds of squeezing and friction, Cao Jun''s line, which was originally crumbling, was more or less stabilized.


    『Press it back! 』


    Cao Ren raised his arms and shouted.


    Following the gap opened by Cao Ren, seven or eight soldiers of Cao Jun rushed forward. Zhou Yu''s heavy armored soldiers on both sides were resisted by Cao Ren''s guards, and they couldn''t make up for it for a while.


    No matter how many armors and hard shields are worn, they may not be able to defend against all injuries. Once under siege, it takes only a few breaths for a heavy armored soldier to go from life to death. After finding a weak point to break through, they lead people to surround these heavy armored soldiers in turn. Naturally, it is easier to kill them than to confront them head-on.


    The heavy-armored soldiers were fine against ordinary soldiers, but when facing Cao Ren, they still couldn''t resist. They blocked Cao Ren''s long knife from slashing, but they couldn''t hold back Cao Ren''s strength. When he blocked it, his arms were numb and he couldn''t lift it up. Even the armor leader was almost chopped into two pieces, and blood rained in the air immediately!


    Cao Ren was in the rain of blood, and was about to move forward when he heard a screaming sound piercing through the air. He immediately lowered his body to one side, and saw a small ax roaring towards Cao Ren, hitting the ground behind Cao Ren. A soldier of Cao''s army slapped his face on the door. If he hadn''t buckled his pocket, the whole head would have been split in half immediately!


    Cao Ren turned his head again, and saw Huang Gai striding towards him, with another battle ax in his hand!


    『Good time! ’Cao Ren yelled, swung his tomahawk flying, and immediately fought with Huang Gai.


    Because of the joining of Huang Gai with a new force, the entire front of the Jiangdong soldiers became stable again.


    The two sides are like a meat grinder biting into one place. Under their own damage, they are also quickly and firmly swallowing the other''s flesh and life.


    Standing behind, Cao Cao looked up at the sun. It was already past noon, and it was gradually falling to the west.


    Fighting to such an extent, it is naturally impossible to say that the soldiers under his command are afraid of death and avoiding the battle, but whoever is facing the **** front, even Cao Cao is not optimistic at the beginning. Facing those Jiangdong soldiers who repeatedly pounced and forgot their lives, as if they didn''t know how to be tired, didn''t know how to be afraid, and looked at life and death very plainly, Cao Jun had gradually paid more attention to them, and no longer felt that Jiangdong soldiers were The object that can be kneaded at will, it looks like a soft persimmon, but when you reach out and touch it, it is a hard rock!


    『The soldiers from Jiangdong...』 Cao Cao could not help but click his tongue in admiration, "It can be called brave..."


    The sun in autumn is relatively short, but there is still some time from sun slant to sunset. The sun slanted on the swords and spears of the soldiers on both sides, and on their armor. Every bit of light reflected the cold light and the glare of death.


    In fact, Cao Cao’s main force was not all arranged in the front, but slightly focused on Xiahouyuan’s side. The main purpose was to cut off Sun Quan when he opened the door to leave the city, and grab the city by the way. Therefore, even if Xia Houyuan jumped in a hurry, he had to hold back for the time being under Cao Cao''s order.


    As a result, although Sun Quan''s flag was waving and people gathered, they were silent. He didn''t know what plan he had made, and he didn''t open the city gate to respond. On the other hand, Zhou Yu put his life on the line and fought with all his might. It seemed that Sun Quan didn''t open the gate. It doesn''t matter, anyway, the momentum of fighting until the last soldier makes Cao Cao a little hesitant.


    Should we focus on dealing with Zhou Yu with all our strength, or should we just stay in a stalemate like this?


    If Xia Houyuan’s forces were brought over, it would not be a big problem to defeat Zhou Yu, but it would be wrong if Sun Quan took the opportunity to rush out...


    If this stalemate continues, the wear and tear will be too great. The two sides are fighting in one place, and long-range weapons such as bows and arrows will not be of much help unless they cover and strike indiscriminately regardless of accidental injury.


    And these Jiangdong soldiers, whether they are ordinary soldiers or heavy armored soldiers, even if they retreat temporarily to rest, after taking a breather on the hill where their commander is, they will regroup and fight again. How many times does the battle have to be fought, as long as there is still a breath left and the enemy has not collapsed, the fight can continue forever, without end!


    Especially those heavy armored soldiers from Jiangdong, they were really fierce men. They risked their lives to fight and spattered blood and flesh all over the sky.


    "This Zhou Gongjin..." Cao Cao frowned, "Could it be that he really wants to fight for his life here? 』


    Almost the same sentence rang out from Jiangxia City.


    『Zhou Gongjin...』 Sun Quan gritted his teeth, 『What is this for? ! 』


    Sun Quan didn''t expect Zhou Yu to come, and he didn''t order Jiangling''s soldiers and horses to come back. Sun Quan let Zhou Yu and Cheng Pu continue to attack the generals, and then ordered Jiangdong Wujun to send troops directly to attack Hefei, but Sun Quan thought he could hold Jiangxia.


    After all, Sun Quan knew a little bit about besieging Wei and saving Zhao.


    Although Cao Cao is aggressive, but if Zhang Zhao and others in Jiangdong are quicker, they can take the opportunity to raid Hefei, and then encircle Cao Cao!


    When the time comes, you can capture Cao Cao with your own hands if you can’t say it!


    By that time, not only Jingzhou, but even Yuzhou and Jizhou will be at your fingertips!


    But unexpectedly, Zhou Yu gave up Jiangling''s offensive and came to rescue Jiangxia...


    Sun Quan almost wanted to yell, saying that he is no longer a child, and he has been in the battle anyway. You don’t need Zhou Gongjin to meddle in your own business, I can hold on here!


    Sun Quan really thought he could do it himself, just like everything before. Therefore, Sun Quan did not have much favor for Zhou Yu''s actions.


    I managed to hold back Cao Cao''s army, creating more time and opportunities for Zhou Yu and Cheng Pu, and then Zhou Yu didn''t even give a notice, leaving Jiangling''s great situation and running back?


    Zhou Yu Zhou Gongjin, what are you doing?


    Lu Su next to Sun Quan raised his head slightly and glanced at Sun Quan''s color. Sun Quan''s thoughts, in fact, everyone understands. Because Sun Jian and Sun Ce are pressing down on Sun Quan''s head, if Sun Quan wants to harden himself among the veterans of the Sun family, he must have a justifiable battle.


    This time the attack on Jingzhou was a battle that Sun Quan had planned for a long time and believed to have a great chance of winning. Of course, at the beginning of the battle, Jiangxia was successfully captured as Sun Quan planned, so Sun Quan naturally thought that the next battle would be as smooth as the attack on Jiangxia.


    But the problem is that although Liu Biao in Jingzhou is old, but the background of many years still exists, it is impossible to be defeated in a short time, and both Cao Cao and Fei Qian stopped fighting, and they have nothing to do at the moment, so the overall situation is naturally the same as Sun Quan predicted before the war It is completely different from the original plan and cannot continue regardless of the original plan.


    But Sun Quan refused to listen.


    Even selectively ignoring some things...


    Just like some children who are in the rebellious period, they feel that their parents are born to fight against themselves, to bully themselves and suppress themselves. They feel extremely disgusted with every word and every action their parents say. Impatience and absolute disgust, even cursing my parents to be killed by a car when they go out, and then I can be alone, and walk on the road of happiness from then on.


    These rebellious children think that their parents have no love for them, and their lives have no color. The whole sky is gray and dark. Both are used against parents and teachers.


    Of course, Sun Quan is not that extreme, but although he tried his best to suppress his rebellious psychology, it is inevitable that sometimes some heads will pop up.


    If this battle fails, where will I put my face when I go back?


    The head can be broken and blood can flow, and the hairstyle, uh, face can''t be messed up!


    So even if Zhou Yu came, Sun Quan would not retreat lightly, so as soon as Zhou Yu entered the field, he adopted a stance of fighting for his life, forcing both sides to use the most fierce methods to fight, all for Sun Quan to take a good look at it. look…


    Lu Su sighed slightly in his heart.


    My lord, you have to see that even Gong Jin''s most powerful soldiers can''t easily break through Cao Jun''s defense line. Do you think this battle can go on? If you are under the attack of Cao Jun soldiers like this, do you still insist that you will be able to defend Jiangxia? Cao Cao obviously has such a powerful general, but he has never used all his strength to attack Jiang Xia. Why? Could it be that my lord, you really don''t want to think about it?


    Fighting like a fire, Zhou Yu and Cao Cao, the most elite and fierce fighters, entangled with each other desperately, every moment was more fierce than the previous fights. Everyone seems to be overdrawing their life and blood for the next few years or even ten years, and will never retreat unless they die in battle.


    Both sides, regardless of casualties, rushed into the opponent''s formation desperately, opened the gap, and then made the gap huge, and put more people in until the opponent''s formation in front of them was completely smashed!


    Entangling the fallen soldiers of both sides, as long as they are not dead, they will crawl sideways and wrestle with each other. A pair of feet either wearing straw sandals or combat boots twist and trample in the blood, mud and meat sauce. The broken limbs, broken arms, flesh and internal organs fell and joined the blood pot like a hodgepodge.


    Zhou Yu stood behind the formation, watched the rows of soldiers move forward, and filled them in. Whenever he saw a gap in the formation, he filled it in there. After the brutal hand-to-hand combat, the number of people who could return was often reduced by half, and the others were either turned into corpses or wounded, and they were carried close to his banner.


    Among these soldiers, most of them are his private soldiers, who have been cultivated and trained by him with money, energy, and time since Sun Jian''s time. There was a little more pain in my heart.


    Near his banner, there were densely wounded soldiers, some of them were out of strength, some were wounded. As long as those who are out of strength wake up, and those who are injured, as long as they realize that their injuries are not serious, they often struggle to get up, and after being saluted by Zhou Yu, they grit their teeth and continue to go into battle!


    The front-line soldiers who were also scarred from fighting, saw them joining, and didn''t even have the energy to say a word of mutual comfort. At most, they just gave each other a look, and they fought side by side together!


    The roar of the fierce battle between the two sides seemed to shake even the autumn sky in the sky, and they quickly tilted westward to escape.


    As dusk approached, both sides became more tragic. After a whole day of fighting so fiercely, it is basically impossible to fight at night, whether it is Cao Cao or Zhou Yu, so both sides want to crush and eliminate their opponents before night falls!


    『My lord! ’ On the top of Jiangxia’s city, Lu Su couldn’t bear it anymore, and said aloud, ‘If you keep fighting, you’ll be wiped out! my lord! 』


    『Zhou Gongjin! This is forcing someone! ’ Sun Quan wasn’t too stupid, he couldn’t help shouting, ‘He’s persecuting Yu Mou! 』
