Chapter 198 Retreat
Zhang Zhe guessed right, it was Southern Wu general Chen Shanyao who organized the Wu army to land and attack the Jiangbei camp.

His movements were more detailed than Zhang Zhe guessed.

The day before yesterday, his fleet harassed Jiangling port.

Jiangling was the rear area of ​​the Zhengnan expeditionary army. Zhao Gongju knew that Chen Shanyao wanted to divide his troops, but he had no choice but to send a part of the fleet to station in Jiangling.

Zhao Gongju's large fleet has been tense these days, guarding the line from Pengxiang Ferry to Jiangling Port, while paying less attention to the Jiangbei camp.

Chen Shanyao took a risky move this time, and landed with his navy, and at dawn, he raided in from the rear of the Jiangbei camp.

Wu Jun's navy has more than 4000 elite troops, while Zheng's army guarding the village has only [-].

Due to the lack of defense against the back, Zheng Jun suffered a big loss from the beginning. Half an hour after the battle started, less than half of the camp fell into the hands of Wu Jun.

Fortunately, General Zheng Jun is not mediocre, he quickly stabilized the morale of the army, and even took the initiative to give up some areas.It was also his initiative to give up part of the camp that prevented the balance of the war from completely tilting towards Chen Shanyao.

In Jiangbei Camp and South Camp, Chen Shanyao in uniform looked at the battlefield ahead expressionlessly.

His subordinates are brave and good at fighting, and they are not inferior to Zheng people even in land warfare.

At this time, several soldiers raised a head and stepped forward, but was waved by the lieutenant beside Chen Shanyao.

"Your Excellency, I will not read it. It is better to restrain the body and bring it back. Say it was killed in battle."

When the soldiers withdrew, Chen Shanyao kicked over a Zheng tent next to him with a resentful kick.

"If he hadn't been greedy for meritorious service and dispersed his troops, the battle would have come to an end by now!"

The lieutenant advised him.

"Xue Xiong is a hero of Zheng Guo, and he is also a man who has been on the battlefield for a long time. Han Hu is just new to the battlefield. Seeing that Xue Xiong took the initiative to give up a large camp area, he greedily divided his troops to occupy it, but Xue Xiong got the opportunity to gather his troops again. Get up. This battle still has to be fought!"

Chen Shanyao turned his head to glance at Jiang An, and then at the steadily advancing front.

"It is said that Xue Xiong is a rough man, but I didn't expect him to be so calm. I burned three of the seven granaries, and I took more than half of the big camp, but the guards around him were still hiding. Need not."

The lieutenant general thought for a while: "How about I take people around the river bank to harass the outside of his northern camp?"

However, Chen Shanyao laughed: "If Mr. Zhao came to help in a big way, you would have nowhere to run. If you attack him cruelly, you will save him. You bring a death-defying army, just charge at the biggest granary, and his personal troops will surely Take the shot, and I will drop the hammer last. Although the casualties will be greater than expected, the timing cannot be delayed any longer, that's the only way to go."

The lieutenant was about to leave when he was ordered, but he heard someone rushing towards him from behind.

"General, a Zheng army suddenly appeared and went straight to Jimingwa!"

Chen Shanyao and the lieutenant turned pale immediately.

"That army horse moved very fast. We didn't dare to chase after it. The dust was three feet high and there were many flags. Looking at the length of the march, there were about 7000 to [-] people. At this time, we are afraid that we will soon kill Jimingwa through the west path!"

Counted!
The first reaction of Chen Shanyao and the lieutenant general was the same.

They had already sent people to investigate the surrounding area. This army of 7000 to [-] people was obviously lying in ambush dozens of miles away, waiting for his attack on the Jiangbei camp.

It can be seen from the opponent's move straight to Jimingwa without hesitation that the opponent's goal is the remaining seven large ships.

Jiangbei Camp is just a bait!In order to completely resolve Southern Wu's advantage over the great river, Emperor Dazheng was so generous.

When Chen Shanyao was thinking about it, Zheng Jun also got the news.

Xue Xiong's spies also noticed the "friendly army" heading straight for Jimingwa.

"Jimingwa?" The bearded Xue Xiong tapped the location of Jimingwa on the map with his fingers, "Hey, maybe Chen's boats are all here! Call the soldiers Give it to me, bite Wu Jun firmly, don't let these cooked ducks fly away!"

Although Xue Xiong didn't know the plans of the enemy and us, as a general who had experienced many battles, his qualities allowed him to make the most beneficial decision for the entire Zheng army in the first place.

The enemy army that suddenly appeared and pounced on Jimingwa made Chen Shanyao dare not continue to take risks, because his current strength is too weak to withstand the loss.

He decided to withdraw his troops immediately, and returned to the division and the remaining troops of the fleet to attack the Zheng army.

There are still nearly 2000 people on the seven large ships and dozens of warships. As long as the tactics are proper and the fleet docks and shoots, it is not a problem to break through the Zheng army by yourself.

But at this time, the soldiers came to report.

"General, the enemy's chief general, Xue Xiong, led his personal troops into battle, and the brothers were bitten, and they couldn't retreat at all!"

The lieutenant general sighed and drew out his long knife.

"Sure enough, it's a trap. My lord, you lead the team to go first, and I'll finish it off!"

The fastest runner of the right camp was stunned on the top of the hill, because the water bay at the foot of the hill was full of boats, all of which were Wu people's flags.

Panting heavily, Zhang Zhe also rushed to the front.

"Hide in the woods and don't show your face, put the flags in front. Dust, dust, don't stop!"

The handsome Gao Jian stood on the top of the building, but his hands were shaking.

Countless flags of the Zheng army surged up the opposite hillside, and the ones he recognized were the flags of four or five armies of the Zheng people.

Zheng Jun on the mountain is definitely no less than ten thousand!
The condescending Zheng Jun should be in the team and waiting for the follow-up long-range attack equipment.

Can't stay here anymore!

"The whole team weighs anchor and goes down the river, quick, quick!"

Gao Jian's terrified roar made the entire Nanwu fleet panic.

Chen Shanyao's veteran Bu Tuo, who was left behind to assist Gao Jian, immediately stepped forward to stop him.

"My son-in-law, I can't withdraw! I'm in the bay, their weapons can't reach me so fast, and they can't attack me. Just wait for the general to return to the army to attack, and then they can break it!"

Gao Jian turned his head and yelled at Bu Tuo.

"There is an ambush army here, and there must be an ambush army in the Jiangbei camp. When he returns to the army, the entire fleet will be destroyed! Chen Shanyao is not here, and the deputy admiral of a certain navy is the commander. Quickly pass on my general order, and anyone who disobeys the order will be beheaded." !"

Gao Jian shouted and cursed angrily, and the soldiers of the Gao family began to touch the handle of the knife, Bu Tuo sighed and had to retreat sadly.

Seeing that the fleet in the bay sailed away without firing an arrow, Zhang Zhe was so happy that he fell down.

Who is this Southern Wu coach?A great achievement must be remembered.

He turned his head to look in the direction of the Jiangbei camp, and suddenly touched his head.

It seemed that things were going awry, and there was no way for Chen Shanyao to retreat. If he made a desperate blow, his own strength and the defenders in Jiangbei might all give up.

Zhang Zhe was in fear for a long time, but finally the bewildered Jiangbei Camp sent someone to take the initiative to contact him. Only then did he know that Chen Shanyao's troops had broken up into small groups and fled inland without hesitation after cutting off their tails to survive.

Hearing this news, Zhang Zhe fell to the ground slowly with a hanging heart. He leaned against the carriage with his legs limp and didn't want to move for a while.

And the five hundred people under him all sat down on the ground, everyone's body was soft, and the worn-out flag fell to the ground.

God, the big guy finally survived.
