The first general of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 367 Zhou Yu died?

"Dong dong dong dong..."

The sound of war drums on the Yangtze River sounded again, but this time was different from the last time. This time, instead of the two armies confronting each other, they sent troops to fight each other and harass them continuously.

Although Wei Tao's sailors were not many originally, but Wei Tao annexed the original Jingzhou navy after all, and it is not unaffordable to go through such consumption.

But this time the Jiangdong Army did not intend to retreat at all, and also sent countless small boats to harass.

However, unlike the last time the two armies clashed, there were a large number of soldiers who died, this time there were actually not many dead, and even the wounded could often be treated in time.

This time, after all, it is not the two armies confronting each other, but each harassing each other, only relying on boats to act.

However, in this way, many boats sank, and the losses between the two parties were not small.

This kind of battle lasted for more than a month, and the soldiers on both sides couldn't bear it, but at the same time, all the soldiers who survived were called the elite of the navy.

Up to now, Wei Tao's navy is not inferior to Jiangdong's army in other places except that it still has some disadvantages in terms of numbers.

However, although the water army is somewhat inferior, Jiangxia has a lot of water villages these days, but they share the Yangtze River with Jiangdong, and the two sides can almost be said to rule the river.

"Then what is Lu Meng thinking? Could it be that Wei Tao really wants to run out of water with our army?"

Although Lu Su has already made the decision to use defense instead of attack, the continuous losses still make Lu Su hesitate a bit. If the fight continues like this, I am afraid that a big battle will really start. It doesn't mean that if you can stop it, you can stop it.

"Does Wei Tao still want to take Jiangdong from me?"

This was originally just an angry self-talk, but as soon as the words came out, Lu Su couldn't help frowning slightly.

I don't know why, but the more I think about it, the more Lu Su feels this way.

Logically speaking, the strength of Wei Tao's naval army is still below Jiangdong's army, even if Wei Tao wants to, he is powerless.

But for some reason, Lu Su felt this way at this time, and when he thought about it carefully, he always felt something was wrong.

It has to be said that Lu Su himself is worthy of being a first-class strategist. Even if his director is looking at the overall situation and practicing horizontal and horizontal tactics, he is also extremely sensitive and already feels that something is wrong.

If you think about it carefully at this time, with Lu Su's ability, you may not be able to figure out what's wrong.

But at this moment, a burst of hurried footsteps disturbed Lu Su's thoughts. It was none other than Jiangdong generals Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin who came.

"Governor, that Wei Tao has made another big move. Countless fleets are heading towards our army. It seems that they intend to destroy our army with one fell swoop!"

"Wei Tao is leading the army again?"

Lu Su put his doubts in his heart, and immediately led the Jiangdong navy to meet him again.

"Dong dong dong dong..."

With the sound of intense drums, Wei Tao gazed into the distance, as if looking directly at Jiangdong after crossing the Jiangdong navy.

After concentrating slightly, Wei Tao came back to his senses, nodded slightly to Zhou Yu beside him, and said.

"Gongjin, be careful."

Zhou Yu, who was clad in silver armor, bowed his hand and sailed up the boat. Naturally, there was a difference between the front and rear troops in this class of boats. Now Zhou Yu wanted to stand in front of the front army to command, so Zhao Yun was sent by his side.

After Zhou Yu stood behind the front army, Wei Tao glanced at him and found that the Jiangdong navy was also in formation, so he immediately gave the order.

"Jiangdong Army has repeatedly violated our Jingzhou and killed our Jingzhou people. The crime is extremely heinous! Parents and children are all affected by this, can they be spared?"

This time Wei Tao lined up the original Jingzhou sailors and the newly recruited sailors in Jingzhou. These people are all from Jingzhou. A burst of anger.

"No! No!"

With the bursts of shouting and killing, people who were not from Jingzhou also responded accordingly. Seeing this, Wei Tao knew that the army's morale was available, let alone the slightest hesitation.

"The whole army listens to my orders! Charge with all your strength, but those who kill the enemy and make meritorious deeds, I will reward them heavily!"

Following Wei Tao's order, Zhou Yu could no longer delay, and immediately ordered the front army to move, and countless ships rushed directly under his command.

"Fire boat, let go!"

Following Zhou Yu's order, he saw that the vanguard fleet put down several small boats, and when he looked closely, they found that there were firelights on board.

At this time, it was the time when the north wind suddenly blew up, and there was no need for people to steer the boat. The boat would go down the river, and the mighty boat would go directly down here.

"Send people quickly to intercept these fire boats!"

Seeing such momentum, Lu Su's face remained unchanged, and he gave orders calmly.

This kind of fireboat attack does seem to be not bad, but Jiangdong lives next to the river for a long time, and the navy is the best in the world, so there is no useless way to deal with it.

If you think about it, it is a way to dodge it, but in this way, it will make the fleet chaotic. If it is swept by Wei Tao's army, I am afraid that the Jiangdong Army will suffer a loss, then Lu Su It's not like that.

Since it is impossible to dodge, it is natural to intercept as long as the fire boat is intercepted before it hits, it is also fine.

It has to be said that the Jiangdong navy is really good at water warfare. Facing this wave of offensive, it seems that it didn't take any effort to either sink the fire boat or divert it away, without missing a single point.

It's just that this time Wei Tao's navy was commanded by Zhou Yu himself, and Zhou Yu obviously didn't want to put his hopes on these fireboats.

What followed behind the fire boat were none other than the many ships under Zhou Yu's command.

"Junyi attacked from the right, Wen Gui surrounded from the left, this enemy must be killed here!"

This time Gan Ning was indeed absent, but Wei Tao deliberately ordered Zhang He and Pan Zhang to obey Zhou Yu's order, and Zhang He also followed Wei Tao's order.

The skills of these two people are not bad, especially Zhang Yun. Although he didn't need to study the water warfare technique specially, but such a command is decent,

"Wei Jun is going to do his best in one battle! Do you really have the heart to annex me Jiangdong!"

Lu Su was shocked. Although the two armies had just come into contact with each other, he had already discovered that the navy commanded by Zhou Yu was basically the most elite group of navy troops in Wei Tao's army. Under the command, these navy troops are just like fierce tigers, with a posture of desperately fighting for their lives, and they are constantly beheading their own soldiers.

Although Lu Su was aware that Wei Tao might be trying to win Jiangdong, but that was just a fantasy. In fact, Lu Su was still paralyzed by Wei Tao's previous actions, subconsciously thinking that this time Wei Tao was just like General harassment before.

Therefore, although Lu Su led the troops to fight, he did not mobilize all the elite soldiers from Jiangdong, and when he sent troops to fight, he only sent an army according to the usual practice.

This is naturally not the opponent of Wei Tao's navy commanded by Zhou Yu himself. Soon after Fang Yi confronted, he was at a disadvantage. Moreover, once the navy formed a situation where there were many surrounded and few, then it would be difficult to turn the situation upside down. It's really not that easy.

But if it continues like this, I'm afraid Jiangdong's first army will be in danger, and if the Jiangdong navy is destroyed here, even if it didn't have that kind of thought at first, it will have the meaning of annexing Jiangdong.

Thinking of this, Lu Su anxiously looked left and right, and hurriedly ordered Zhu Zhi and Zhou Shan to come forward to help.

With the arrival of reinforcements, the Jiangdong army's position was stabilized immediately, but the previous disadvantage did not change much. Under such a situation, many Jiangdong ships were besieged and attacked, and the later Jiangdong navy could not guard against it at all. .

Of course, these Jiangdong sailors approached and caused a lot of damage to Wei Tao's sailors. When the battle became fierce, Zhou Yu sent Zhao Yun out regardless of his own safety.

In fact, Zhou Yu was in front of the formation at this time, but in fact there were no ships around him, and it was the time when he was single and weak!

Originally, if no one noticed this, it would be nothing, but at this moment, an arrow shot directly at Zhou Yu from nowhere.

"what!"

Zhou Yu seemed defenseless, clutching his chest and fell down.

Although the two armies were fighting at this time and everyone had no time to spare, it still attracted attention for a general like Zhou Yu.

"Revenge for the governor!"

But at this time, the Jiangdong navy had no time to cheer up, but when they heard Zhao Yun and other generals shouting together, they actually led a counterattack.

But in the end, he lost Zhou Yu's command. After a counterattack, his morale was immediately drained, but just at this time Wei Tao called for gold to withdraw his troops, and finally retreated again.

There were many casualties in Jiangdong soldiers in this battle, and after having the idea of ​​"Wei Tao is going to invade Jiangdong" in his mind, Lu Su was also preparing to step up his defenses after this battle, and even prepared to let Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin carry out iron ropes across the river. Of the policy.

As long as the river is closed with iron cables, it is equivalent to adding a steel city wall on the river, and Jiangdong will be safe at that time.

But at this moment, a news came. Hearing this news, even Lu Su, who has always been able to keep calm in any situation, couldn't help but stand up and question the person directly.

"You said that Zhou Yu was shot dead by an arrow! Wei Tao mourned him and ordered the whole army to mourn?"

Lu Su was also at a loss for a moment, and couldn't help asking repeatedly.

"Are you sure that Zhou Yu died after being hit by an arrow?"

"There is no need for the governor to doubt. I have already sent someone to investigate. Now all the lieutenants and soldiers of Wei Tao's army have disappeared. Except for Wei Tao himself, Zhou Yu, the enemy of our army, can be treated this way. It can be seen that this The news is true!"

At this moment, Zhou Tai came out and reported, and Jiang Qin next to him also confirmed it again and again.

"Unexpectedly, Zhou Yu was also a hero for a while, and he was killed by Liu Ya!"

Lu Su sighed, he obviously had no reason to doubt Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin's words, and finally believed them.
