Chaos of the Three Kingdoms Summons

Chapter 2360 Bai Qi landed and Zixu was defeated, Tianhua flying dart killed Zilong
"This is a big battle!"

"After all, it's hard to change the ending!"

Chaisang, Xu Da let out a heavy sigh!
He was stationed in Chaisang, with the Jianghuai battlefield to the north. Therefore, he was the first one to receive the news in the entire Yangzhou.

However, when he received the news, he was not panicked or terrified as one might imagine, but rather very calm.

Perhaps, he had mentally prepared for this ending a long time ago!

"It's a pity for the Fourth Young Master!" Xu Da sighed helplessly once again.

With Zhu Di's ability to lead troops, if he had not been born in the Zhu family, he would definitely have been a famous general no matter which prince he served under.

Unfortunately, as Zhu Yuanzhang's biological son, his only choice in this battle was to die in battle. Even if he was alive, the enemy would not necessarily let him go. Even if he was allowed to live by the enemy, his life would definitely be worse than death.

With Zhu Di's pride, he could endure humiliation, but he endured humiliation for the purpose of counterattack one day and to achieve the final reversal. As long as he could achieve this, he would even sleep in a pigsty, but he would never endure humiliation just to survive.

His pride would not allow him to do that just to live in humiliation.

As for the Jin army, even if he was willing to endure hardships, it would be in vain in the end. Therefore, Zhu Di chose to die in battle.

Not to mention Zhu Di, Xu Da was also fully prepared mentally at this time.

Since Wu Zixu's defeat on the Yangtze River, the combat effectiveness of the Yangtze River Navy has been greatly damaged. Seeing that the time was ripe, Bai Qi officially launched a fierce attack.

On the other hand, Xu Da sent out reinforcements twice, but was defeated by Chang Yuchun twice, which made the situation even more pessimistic for his already stretched military strength.

Therefore, after Bai Qi officially launched the general offensive, he was visibly at a disadvantage.

Bai Qi attacked fiercely for half a month, and Xu Da held on hard. Although he had not lost the important town of Chaisang for the time being, he did not allow Bai Qi to land successfully.

However, during this half month, his troops were once again reduced by more than 10,000.

On the other hand, Bai Qi had sufficient military support behind him.

Even if there was a slight loss of troops, for Bai Qi, the worst that could happen was that he would just replace them with another troop to launch a landing battle.

With Bai Qi's current offensive, I'm afraid Xu Da won't be able to hold on in another ten days or half a month.

However, Xu Da deserves the title of a famous general in every way, as he was able to fight hard until now despite all the disadvantages.

After the outcome of the Jianghuai war was decided, the Yangzhou army was terrified.

But for Bai Qilai, it was just a trivial matter. It was already destined, and it couldn't change his actions or affect his mood.

He always followed his original plan and had Qi Jiguang cooperate with him in launching landing operations again and again.

A main force was replaced from the rear every five days. It can be said that Bai Qi's troops were always in their prime, but Xu Da's troops not only suffered heavy casualties in battle after battle, but also suffered from both physical and psychological pressures.

After another twelve days of continuous attack, Bai Qi, with the assistance of Qi Jiguang, successfully landed in Yangzhou. The 20,000 Jin troops, led by Zhang Liao, successfully broke through the enemy's obstacles and officially landed in Yangzhou.

On the same day, Qi Jiguang attacked the enemy's rescue site, forcing Wu Zixu to fight him. At the cost of 4,000 casualties, he killed and wounded more than 10,000 of Wu Zixu's soldiers.

At this point, Wu Zixu only had more than 10,000 soldiers left who could fight.

After being forced to send some men to the lower reaches of the Yangtze River, Wu Zixu could no longer resist Qi Jiguang, who had the military advantage.

After this battle, it was even more difficult to compete with Qi Jiguang in the middle reaches of the Yangtze River. Since then, the middle reaches of the Yangtze River officially fell into the hands of Qi Jiguang. Due to Zhang Liao's landing, Wu Zixu's water stronghold also fell into the control of Zhang Liao and Qi Jiguang. As a last resort, the defeated Wu Zixu could only lead his remnants into the lower reaches of the Yangtze River.

In the entire Chaisang, only Xu Da's lone soldier was left.

However, even though he was fighting alone, Xu Da launched three counterattacks in a row, trying to repel Zhang Liao's troops and regain control of the ferry before Bai Qi's next troop landed.

Only by regaining control of the ferry will he have a chance to hold on.

If Zhang Liao's troops cannot be repelled before Bai Qi's next batch of troops lands, the number of enemy soldiers landing will only increase.

On land, without the natural barrier of the Yangtze River, they would have absolutely no chance of winning. The difference in military strength between the two sides was enough to make them despair.

Regaining control of the Yangtze River is their only way to survive

However, facing Zhang Liao, who was strengthened by the Five Elite Generals, Xu Da, who was exhausted from the long battle, suffered heavy casualties and did not gain any advantage. He once again lost a lot of soldiers.

Even during the counterattack, Xiang Zilong, the last god-level warrior under his command, was killed by Huang Tianhua with a fire dragon flag piercing his throat.

Although Xiang Zilong is also a god-level general, his combat power is not outstanding in the field of initial-level god-level generals. It can even be said that he is slightly weaker and cannot compare with the three elders of Sui and Tang dynasties.

As the last powerful general in Xu Da's hands, Xiang Zilong personally led a thousand warriors selected by Xu Da to launch a counterattack against Zhang Liao, vowing to retake the ferry.

During the fight, he ran into the Jin army general Huang Tianhua.

After the fight, there was no extra nonsense between the two men, and they fought each other with all their strength.

Xiang Zilong played an indispensable role in the death of Tan Tai Yu. If it weren't for his sneak attack, the old general wouldn't have met with an accident just before his retirement.

Therefore, even because of Li Cunxiao, there is no possibility of reconciliation between the two parties.

Although Xiang Zilong's spear skills are ingenious, Huang Tianhua's hammer skills are equally powerful.

The two sides fought for fifty rounds, and Xiang Zilong was seriously injured by Huang Tianhua's pair of silver hammers. He fought desperately to get a chance to break through.

If he was facing someone else, he might really leave.

However, the one he fought against was Huang Tianhua.

When facing an expert with archers or hidden weapons, the moment you run away and expose your back to the opponent is when you are in the most danger.

When Xiang Zilong started to escape, Huang Tianhua decisively took out his Fire Dragon Flag from his waist and threw it out, hitting Xiang Zilong's throat directly and accurately, and penetrated through his throat, killing the general on the spot.
