The most poisonous person in the Three Kingdoms, Boss Cao advised me to calm down!

Chapter 391 No longer Wu Jun A Quan?

Li Gouzi disagreed with what he said and retorted with a smile:
"Brother Zhu, you worry too much!"

"Cao's army has been defeated for three days in a row. Their morale is low. How can they have the courage to attack?"

However, before he could finish his words, he heard a "whoosh" sound in his ear!
A feather arrow flew through the fog and headed straight for the two of them!

It hit Li Gouzi right in the throat!
The unfortunate soldier collapsed to the ground before he could say a word.

With such a precise arrow hitting his throat, this person naturally died.

When his comrades saw this, their faces changed drastically!
He quickly shouted to the friendly forces not far away:

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!"

"Quickly report to the general!"

The soldiers' shouts tore through the silence of the night.

However, before any further warning could be given, a hail of arrows began to fall from the sky like a torrential rain.

This ended the warnings of all the Jiangdong troops present.

Then, Cao Hong led three thousand navy soldiers to charge out from the depths of the fog like a raging wave.

"Charge the entire army!"

"Destroy the Jiangdong rebels and leave no one alive!"

At Cao Hong's command, three thousand Cao troops rushed down the mountain like tigers.

The battle with the Jiangdong Army at Ruxukou was filled with murderous intent!
The warships rushed forward, invincible!
Over the past three days, not only the generals of Cao's army were itching to do something, but even the soldiers felt frustrated.

Now that I have a chance to fight, the resentment in my heart turns into endless fighting spirit.

Naturally, no one wants to miss such a pleasure!
In less than an hour and a half, the Jiangdong army's garrison at Ruxukou quickly collapsed.

Cao Hong's body was covered in blood. He looked at the enemy corpses floating on the water and whispered to himself.

"Hey, it's just as Military Advisor Sima De expected!"

"Sun Quan, you must have set up an ambush ahead, waiting for me, Cao Hong, to fall into your trap!"

"He wanted to hunt me..."

"But they don't know that he is the one who has made outstanding achievements in our eyes!"

At this moment, the guards beside him quickly reported:
"General, the enemy troops here have been captured!"

Cao Hong nodded upon hearing this, and said with a wave of his hand:
"Send a message to the rear troops to follow up immediately!"

"We will continue to head south, sailing at full speed, and follow the Ruxu River."

"Rush to the enemy camp, Ruxuwu, as fast as possible!"

As soon as the order was given, Cao Hong's advance fleet's sails obscured the sun.

With the help of the west wind, warships loaded with kerosene.

Like an arrow shot from a bow, it headed straight for Ruxuwu.

Cao Hong's footsteps just disappeared in the outline of the night.

On the cliff where Chaohu Lake and Rushu River meet in the back.

The sentinels in Jiangdong quickly received shocking news.

The naval fleet used as bait in the front was completely wiped out by Cao's army.

At this time, the moonlight was slightly cool halfway up Hanshan Mountain.

A sly smile appeared on the corner of the guarding general Pan Zhang's mouth.

As proud as a hunter seeing his prey about to fall into the net.

"Everything is as the Lord expected."

"That Cao thief really sent his elite troops to attack at night!"

"It's a pity for General Cao who led the charge."

"You are destined to sink to the bottom of the river tonight!"

"Pass the order down and immediately withdraw some of the troops guarding the mountain."

"Sneak down the mountain at night, head to the river mouth, and cut off Cao's army's return journey!"

"We will follow the lord's prior arrangements and work together with the rear to catch the turtle in the jar."

"Take down this group of Cao's troops in one fell swoop!"

As soon as Pan Zhang finished speaking, teams of soldiers moved in response to his orders.

The strategy of blocking the river is simple but effective.

There is no need to completely block the river; just sink the boat and hammer in wooden stakes in the middle of the river mouth.

Just prevent Cao’s ships from passing easily.

Even if there is a gap of several feet, it is enough to make the enemy sigh in despair.

Now that the beginning of autumn has passed, the river flows coldly.

It will become a ruthless trap that devours them.

At the same time, on the opposite side of Hanshan, on top of Koushan.

Xu Sheng also received the signal that the enemy had been successfully lured.

Without hesitation, he and Pan Zhang made the same choice. However, it took only half a cup of tea.

The soldiers they sent out returned in a panic, with fear written all over their faces.

"General, the Ruxu River is full of enemy ships!"

"After the first wave of attacks, more Cao's ships came like a tide!"

"We haven't finished blocking them yet, they are already coming!"

"Brothers... have all sacrificed themselves!"

When Xu Sheng and Pan Zhang heard the report, their faces changed suddenly!

At this moment, the generals in both places realized tacitly.

The scale of Cao's army's actions tonight may far exceed Lord Sun Quan's expectations.

This is not just a simple sneak attack, but an all-out offensive by Cao's army!
If we don’t respond in time, the consequences will be disastrous!
"Quick! Go and inform the lord and have the army in the rear get ready!"

Before Pan Zhang finished speaking, a hurried shout rang out beside him:
"General, look down the mountain! Cao's army is attacking the mountain!"

Upon hearing this, Pan Zhang hurriedly looked towards the foot of the mountain, only to see flames rising into the sky at the foot of the mountain.

Cao's army, holding torches, was densely packed.

It's like a raging fire dragon, winding up, unstoppable!
"Attack by land and sea, in batches at night?!"

"Cao is really a ruthless person!"

"If you don't strike, it's fine. But if you strike, you must kill with one strike!"

At this time, Pan Zhang's eyes were stern as he turned to Kou Shan, who was facing him across the river.

There were also flames rising into the sky, and the situation was obvious.

Cao's army's attack was also carried out simultaneously on the other side.

"Humph! If an enemy comes, we will stop him; if a flood comes, we will block it with earth!"

"If the enemy dares to attack, why should I, Pan Zhang, fear their power?!"

"Brothers, follow me and charge!"

"If the enemy dares to go up the mountain, we will make sure they never return!"

Pan Zhang drew his sword and vowed to fight to the death.

There is no word of retreat in his dictionary.

Moreover, he knew clearly that once Hanshan was lost, Jiangdong's defense line would be completely destroyed.

The Ruxu Fort, which was originally as impregnable as an iron fortress, will be directly exposed to the swords of Cao's army.

All the hard work of the Jiangdong Army over the past few months will be in vain.

And if they, Jiangdong, suffered a great defeat because of this.

He, Pan Zhang and Xu Sheng, must take the blame for this battle.

After all, even if their lord Sun Quan made mistakes in the prior arrangements!

It is impossible for the lord to take the blame.

In this case, only their generals can bear the responsibility!
"My lord, I hope you can evacuate Ruxuwu in time and return to Jiangdong!"

"Right now, we can only defend this place to the death to buy you precious time!"

At the other end of Ruxu Fort, Sun Quan stood at the highest point of the water fort.

At this moment, his eyes were fixed on the north, when the vague shadow of the warship came into view.

He also smiled with confidence!

"The thief Cao finally couldn't hold back any longer!"

"Send a message to Generals Lu Meng and Huang Gai!"

"Don't rush to attack. Wait until the enemy is deeply buried in the ambush, and then cut off their retreat in one fell swoop!"

"In this battle, we must not only annihilate the enemy completely."

"We must also capture alive the thief general of Cao's army who ordered the attack!"

After ordering the soldiers to leave, Sun Quan's heart was filled with great passion.

"Gongjin, Zijing, watch me defeat the enemy!"

"Even without your help."

"I can also lead the Jiangdong men to defeat that Han thief Cao Cao!"

Thinking of this, Sun Quan looked up at the night sky.

For a moment, he couldn't help but think of his dead brother.

Thinking back to the time when his elder brother Sun Bofu said to him before he died:
"You are no match for me in leading the Jiangdong troops to a decisive battle between the two camps."

"But I am not as good as you in promoting talented people to protect Jiangdong's foundation."

But now, he, Sun Zhongmou, is no longer the Wujun Aquan!
He will prove with his actions that he is no less inferior to his father and brothers in terms of marching and fighting!
I, Sun Zhongmou, can also shoulder the glory of the Sun family!
In the darkness of night, the clarion call of war has already sounded.

It was as if every drumbeat and every shout was coming from the front.

All of this is to prove that the era of Sun Quan has arrived!
