The Three Kingdoms are invincible

Lu Xun heard Cai Mao's words, smiled slightly, and said: "My strategy is nothing to say, it is nothing more than showing strength through weakness, first cheating for a while, and then encircling and annihilating them after luring the enemy deep.

Although this strategy sounds simple, it is also the kind of strategy often used by the predecessors, and there is nothing new about it.However, this strategy of luring the enemy to go deep is often effective. Even some resourceful generals sometimes fall into the trap.And for the current situation, this plan is very suitable.

The Jiangdong water army has crossed the Yangtze River for a long time and has no rivals. In the eyes of Jiangdong generals, the self-army may not be as capable as Cao's army in land warfare, but its water warfare ability is invincible in the world.

Although it cannot be said that the Jiangdong generals are proud and complacent, they are indeed quite confident in their water warfare capabilities.

In the eyes of the Jiangdong generals, there is no army in the world that can win the water battle with the Jiangdong army.If the Jiangdong water army fought another water army and defeated it, in the eyes of those generals, it was a normal thing, and they might not suspect that it was a false defeat by the other side.

Of course, if Zhou Yu was in the Jiangdong Army, he should be able to distinguish whether the enemy is a false defeat or a real defeat.However, this is just an outpost battle. How could Zhou Yu, the governor of Jiangdong, come to direct an outpost battle in person?

Cai Mao followed Lu Xun's plan and took [-] sailors to fight against the Jiangdong navy.

The remaining [-] Cao troops in Sanjiangkou ambushed in the water stronghold with bows and arrows. Once the Jiangdong army entered the water stronghold, they fired ten thousand arrows to strike the opponent hard.

Originally, Cai Mao did not plan to bring 4 people into the battle. He thought that this number was too much. If more people were arranged to serve as ambushes, the effect of the ambush would be better after the Jiangdong army was lured into the ambush circle of the water village.However, Lu Xun knew that there was a gap between his own army and the Jiangdong navy. According to common sense, as a general of his own side, he would fight with all his strength under such circumstances. It's a trick to lure the enemy.

The fleets of the two armies approached quickly on the river, and the battle was imminent.

When fighting on water, bows and arrows are indispensable sharp weapons. When the distance between the two sides was more than [-] feet, the archers on the front fleet of the two armies began to bend their bows and set up arrows, shooting towards the enemy in front. , All of a sudden, there was an endless stream of arrows on the river.

However, the damage that this kind of long-distance shooting can cause is limited after all, not to mention that as an outpost, the two sides did not have many archers. After a few rounds of arrow rain, both sides only suffered more than a hundred casualties.

Soon, the boats in the front row of the two armies collided with each other one after another. The soldiers set up planks on the boats, held up their weapons and rushed towards the enemy.

If it is on flat ground, the Jiangdong army is not as good as Cao's army in close combat, but now the place of the fight is on a boat, and the hull of the boat is swaying with the ups and downs of the water. The other factors are very different from land battles. As soon as they confronted each other, Cao Jun was defeated.

Although Cai Mao has practiced the navy for some time, there is a gap with the Jiangdong navy. The more important problem is that, except for the original Jingzhou navy, the newly trained navy has no actual combat experience at all. .

So not long after the fight, Cao Jun was suppressed by the Jiangdong Army.On the boat, the corpses of Cao Jun's soldiers kept falling into the river.

"Withdraw!" Cai Mao smiled wryly. Although he had planned to feign defeat from the beginning, the strength gap between his own navy and Jiangdong navy was bigger than he imagined.

Following Cai Mao's order to withdraw his troops, Cao Jun turned the bow and retreated to his own water village.When retreating, the Jiangdong army took advantage of the situation to kill again, and many soldiers of Cao army who were too late to retreat were killed one after another.

"General, the enemy has already retreated. Now is the right time to pursue them. Maybe we can capture the opponent's water village in one fell swoop and wipe out all [-] of their vanguards. If so, we will make great achievements! If they are completely destroyed, they will lose their vigor, and it will not be difficult to destroy their army at that time!" Seeing Cao's army retreat, Lieutenant General Chen Wu suggested to Chief General Tai Shici to take advantage of the victory and pursue.

When Tai Shici heard the words, he didn't immediately agree, but remained silent.

Tai Shici's personality is not the very reckless type, although he is not calm and composed, he will eventually consider things.

Although the self army had the upper hand in the battle just now, but for Cao Jun, it was not to the point of being unstoppable, and the timing of their retreat seemed to be a little faster.

"I'm afraid there is an ambush..." Tai Shici said in a deep voice.

"The enemy fled timidly, where did they come to ambush?" Ling Tong, another lieutenant general, said angrily.His father Ling Cao died at the hands of Cao Jun. He naturally hated Cao Jun and wished to wipe him out.

"General, the troops brought out by Cai Mao just now are very large, and there must be no room for an ambush. What's more, our army's sailing and rowing skills are unparalleled in the world. Even if there is an ambush, our army can retreat quickly, and the enemy can't keep it. Us." Chen Wu also continued to persuade Tai Shici to pursue him.

"Okay, then according to the two of you, pursue Cao Jun!" Tai Shici saw that the two had such intentions, so he also made up his mind and gave the order to the whole army to pursue.
