The Three Kingdoms in the Ya Nei

The army marched to Jiangling and sent a report to the horses. Sure enough, Jiangxia had already started a war.When Zhang He in Qingzhou knew that Cao Ren's army was moving, he immediately came across the river and attacked Jiangxia. Fortunately, Wenpin arrived in time, so he could withstand it.

When the Zhijun report was in Cao Ren's hands, the two sides had already reached a stalemate.Although Zhang He is a famous general in Qingzhou, facing a fortified city with a considerable force and having Wenpin in command, he is hard to shake for a while, Cao Ren is very proud.So he stopped worrying about the future, and urged the army to advance twice, and came straight to Baling.

Baling is today's Yueyang, also known as Yuezhou.Its land extends from east to west, running through north and south.It is adjacent to Mufu in the east and Dongting in the west.It is connected to the great river in the north, and Xiang and Yuan in the south. It has never been a battleground for military strategists.

Cao Ren went all the way down the river and arrived at the border of Debaling. The scouts in front reported that the Jiangdong army had arrived and was going down to the camp thirty miles ahead.

The chief historian, Chen Jiaojin, said: "The two sides are far away today, and they are equally exhausted, but our army is twice as strong. If you can spare no effort and fight hard first, the momentum will be broken." [

Cao Ren was overjoyed, and immediately sent an order to the three armies not to camp first, but to fight bravely and go straight to Jiangdong camp.

Thirty li away in a blink of an eye, I saw half of the Jiangdong camp set up in the distance, and when I saw the army coming from here, there was chaos in the camp.

Cao Jun rushed to the front of the camp, all arrows were fired, and Jiangdong's army was caught off guard, and fell down immediately. When they cried for their father and mother, they retreated one after another.Cao Ren made Xiao general Niu Jin on the left and Hou Yin on the right. He led his own army in the center and went straight to kill the Chinese army.

The Jiangdong army's stockade has not stood up, and there are no antlers and horses to block it, so how can it resist it.In desperation, he had no choice but to abandon the camp, turn around and lose to the east.

Cao Jun marched in three directions, and then pursued closely. Jiangdong Army's horses shot arrows and cannons.Fleeing in panic, he retreated to the foot of Mufu Mountain before barely stopping.When the number of people was counted, the [-] army actually lost nearly [-] people, Zhou Yu and Chen Dao were both depressed.

Stayed at night, just after packing up, Cao Jun came again, and after a scuffle, the Jiangdong Army lost its spirit in the first battle, and it was difficult to distinguish the enemy from us at night, so we had to retreat again.

In this way, the pursuit stopped and stopped, and Cao Ren won consecutive battles. In one night, he chased the Jiangdong Army to Baling City before giving up.In this battle, a total of five Jiangdong camps were defeated, more than [-] Jiangdong soldiers were killed and injured, and countless banners and armors were captured. Cao Ren was very proud.On the one hand, they ordered people to go down to the fortress in front of Baling City and surrounded the city, and on the other hand, they made a mask to repay Xudu and ask for credit.

Zhou Yu and Chen Daobai returned to the city, closed the city gate tightly, and could not get out.For several days in a row, Cao Ren sent people to invite battles in front of the city every day, insulting him in every possible way.All the generals in Jiangdong held their breath and asked for a fight one after another, but Zhou Yu refused.At the end of the day, he even ordered those who have more words to fight, beheaded!Everyone retreated angrily.

Zhou Yu was unwilling to fight, but he did not retreat either.While asking people to strengthen their defenses, they kept urging food and supplies backwards.After several times, rumors started to spread in the city, saying that Zhou Yu was passive and idle, probably because he was dissatisfied with Qingzhou and wanted to be independent.

The generals were puzzled and did not dare to look for Zhou Yu, so they had to ask Chen everywhere.Chen Dao didn't care, he just threw out a sentence with a smile on his face, saying that the hero has something to say, don't judge a hero by the momentary victory or defeat, whoever laughs last is the real laugher.Let everyone comfort their subordinates, not to act rashly, just follow orders.

Everyone listened in a daze, not sure what the two chief generals were thinking, but heard that this Vice General Chen was highly appreciated by the lord in Qingzhou, if he really had a second heart, they had no choice but to stop their thoughts and turn around.
