Three Kingdoms: I help Liu Bei grow thousands of miles

Chapter 275 This Is Destiny

According to the number of warships in Cao's army, Lu Su guessed that the opponent's strength was only 3000, while Jiangdong's naval forces at this time added up to nearly [-], and the advantage was quite obvious.

"My lord, this Cao army is very tenacious, but the number is far smaller than ours. Let's land and fight?" Lu Su asked for instructions.

Sun Quan stroked his purple beard and said triumphantly, "Ziming, how about me as a lure?"

"My lord uses his troops like a god." Lu Meng clasped his fists in compliment.

"Cao's army is in trouble, who wants to go to the island and destroy these lost lambs?" Sun Quan asked the generals relaxedly.

With more and less, the advantage lies in Jiangdong.

The general accompanying the army was gearing up, this was a good opportunity to earn military merit by beheading. Because Ling Tong was young and quick to respond, he stepped in front of Sun Quan first, and said sonorously: "My lord, the general is willing to go."

"Zijing, assign three thousand soldiers to Gongji," Sun Quan ordered.

"Wei." Lu Su nodded in response.

Lu Meng knew that the opponent was powerful on land, so he quickly reminded: "My lord, Cao Jun's cavalry is brave, and it is inevitable that there will be a loss in public performance, so you can allocate more."

Sun Quan frowned, "This Cao army abandoned the ship and landed on the island. They have no way of retreating. How can they still have fighting power? I think three thousand is too much. Gongji, do you want more troops?"

"Only two thousand is enough." Ling Tong was full of blood, he was so excited by Sun Quan, and he immediately developed a heroic spirit.

"Don't underestimate the enemy." Lu Meng wanted to remind, but Sun Quan couldn't listen.

"Look at how many enemy generals I have captured." Ling Tong looked at Lu Meng and finished speaking confidently, then walked away.

Ling commanded two thousand soldiers to go ashore, and Lu Su, Lu Meng and others who stayed on board were not idle.

Dozens of warships abandoned by Cao Cao became spoils of war, and it was necessary to send troops to take over the control and count the supplies left on board.

About an hour later, all the new warships had been taken over. It was a pity that Cao Jun was in such a hurry this time that he was not prepared for a protracted war. Not to mention weapons and armor, even dry food was not found on the warships.

While Sun Quan was listening to the reports from the battalions, the military flag of Jiangdong suddenly appeared on the low slope on the bank, and was moving towards the fleet at a very fast speed.

"Look, my lord, Gongji has returned victorious." Dong Xi pointed at Sun Quan behind him and said joyfully.

Sun Quan, Lu Su and others walked to the bow of the boat, and Ling Tong's soldiers ran frantically towards this side. They looked a little embarrassed, and several flag bearers were dragging the flags and running.

"Gongji is quick to win the battle, but it seems to have suffered a lot. Cao Jun really deserves his reputation." Sun Quan sighed softly.

Looking around, only a few hundred people came back. They have no formation at all now, a bit like a defeated army.

Sun Quan and all the generals got off the boat to greet them, while Lu Su asked people to prepare drinks for the celebration.

After a while, the soldiers ran to the shore in ragged clothes, and Ling Tong followed behind with a tired face, gasping for breath from the violent running.

Sun Quan personally picked up the wine bowl and handed it over: "It seems that Gongji has just fought hard, drink a bowl first to quench his thirst."

Ling Tong took the wine bowl and gulped it down. Lu Su asked curiously, "Why are there only more than 300 people left? The rest of the soldiers are cleaning the battlefield behind? Have you captured the general Cao Jun?"

Ling Tong shook his head and said, "My lord, the chief governor, these are the only ones that will be taken out by the last general."

"The battle damage ratio is so high, I should have listened to Ziming just now, and I will call you more." Sun Quan regretted a little.

"No. They escaped back. The Cao army on the island is too powerful, and they are no match for these soldiers." Ling Tong swallowed his saliva.

"Did you lose the public achievement?"

Sun Quan looked at Ling Tong in disbelief, I have never seen such a shameless person, how could he lose so peacefully?Just now, he drank the celebration wine in a grand manner.

Lu Su, Lu Meng and the others were all stunned when they heard this, thinking that Ling Gongji must be crazy, right?The defeated general is still smiling?
Ling Tong saw that everyone looked different, and quickly explained: "No. Cao Mengde is on the island, and those Cao soldiers are not afraid of death. One is worth ten. My two thousand soldiers were originally few, so I did it."

Everyone was instantly relieved when they heard this. Cao Cao was besieged on the island with only two to three thousand guards. No wonder Ling Tong was defeated so quickly.

"Zijing, I'm going to meet Cao Cao for a while. You will stay and guard the ship, and the rest will go to the island with me." Sun Quan said excitedly.

Lu Su said happily: "My lord, bring more people there, you may change the general situation of the world, and you may be able to rule the Central Plains."

Sun Quan's blood was surging, and his voice became louder and louder: "The world has been suffering for a long time, and in the end we have to do our best to turn the tide, and all the lords will go down in history."

Cao Cao was still struggling, and Sun Quan only left a thousand men for Lu Su for the sake of safety. He led Lu Meng, Dong Xi, Ling Tong, and Jiang Qin, and led [-] soldiers to the island to fight.

This may be fate, how can a mortal fight against fate?God had arranged it long ago, Sun Quan's father and brother didn't accomplish any major events, but he himself waited for this opportunity.

The emperor's clothes and belts should be given to himself, what Dong Cheng, Zhong Ji, what Wu Shuo, Liu Bei, can they provoke the Han Dynasty?
Sun Quan stepped on the rising grass, just like stepping on the shoulders of those exterminated princes, and his thoughts couldn't help but rush out.

Thinking about how to humiliate Cao Cao for a while, thinking about coercing Cao Cao to conquer Hebei in the Central Plains, thinking about how the emperor will greet him, maybe he can also be called a prince and king?In the future, in the historian's writings, he may be as famous as Sun Wu, so there is no need for the Yangtze River News to be famous.

The corners of Sun Quan's mouth turned up as he walked, and when he was in a daze, he almost lost his foot in the air. Fortunately, Lu Meng beside him helped him in time.

"My lord, be careful." Lu Meng's words brought Sun Quan back to reality.

"The island in the middle of the lake is actually quite big." Sun Quan changed the subject.

Before they knew it, the Jiangdong soldiers had already walked two miles. Although all of them were on gentle slopes, their legs were sore and weak after continuing to go uphill, especially Sun Quan, who rarely traveled far.

Ling Tong, who was leading the way ahead, stopped, pointed to the hill not far away and said, "My lord, Cao Cao is on the hill ahead."

Cao Cao was condescending on the hill, and the scouts had already spotted the Jiangdong soldiers.

At this time, Cao Jun had calmed down from his nervousness. Just now when he fought with Ling Tong's 2000 men, Cao Jun exploded with amazing strength and lethality.

"Prime Minister, there are quite a few enemies here this time, there should be seven to eight thousand people." Cheng Yu reported.

Cao Cao's face was stern, and he cheered up the soldiers around him: "Going south with a large army alone, I don't want to get into trouble in this Chaohu Lake. You all saw clearly just now that the Jiangdong rats can still fight in the water, but they are vulnerable on land. Now everyone has no way to retreat. No, everyone should work hard, there will be reinforcements as soon as the clouds clear, and everyone will be rewarded after retreating from the enemy."

"I wish to do my best." Cao Hong took the lead in shouting, and heroic shouts erupted from the hill.

Sun Quan advanced forward, and when he approached the foot of the hill where Cao Cao was stationed, there were corpses lying on the ground everywhere, and most of them were soldiers from Jiangdong. Cao Jun didn't even bother to clean up the battlefield.

Sun Quan drew out his sword, pointed to the front and shouted loudly: "My sons, the time has come to make meritorious deeds, avenge your comrades on the ground, capture the Cao thief alive, reward a thousand hectares of fertile land, and seal ten thousand households as marquises."

The Jiangdong soldiers were as if they had been beaten with chicken blood. Under the command of their respective leaders, they divided into five groups and rushed towards Cao Jun's direction.
