Chapter 247 Bloody Battle with Chaisang! Lu Xun is the coach! Liu Bei: Sun Ce is itchy again!
In the middle of the night, north of the Yangtze River, Cai Mao was overjoyed,
“Wei Yan and Tai Shici’s surprise attack on Yuzhang is successful, and Sun Ce’s army is bound to be in chaos!”
The scouts report,
“Report~! Commander, Sun Ce’s army in Xiakou is in disarray. Hundreds of warships on the Yangtze River are heading towards Yuzhang. The formation is unstable.”
Cai Mao is overjoyed,
“Everyone, when Sun Ce’s army learned that Yuzhang had been captured, they must be in a hurry. The army withdrew at night and wanted to take back Yuzhang. This is a great opportunity for our army to hunt down Yuzhang!”
He recently had more defeats than victories in the battle with Sun Ce, although he had completed the tasks assigned to him by Liu Bei,
Of course, he was also very anxious. Many of Liu Bei’s soldiers made great contributions. Veteran Huang Zhong and Yan Yan fought against Jingnan.
Wei Yan and Tai Shici won half of Yuzhang,
Zhuge Liang first defeated the Xiahou brothers, and now he blocked Cao Jun in Xinye. These people were not as good as him before!
He still wanted to be the governor of Jingzhou in his heart, so he had to come up with some achievements.
He looked around,
“Everyone, I intend to send troops to pursue Sun Ce’s army!”
Lu Xun quickly cupped his fists,
“Commander, Zhou Yu is very resourceful, even if he retreats, he will arrange it properly. I’m afraid this time is Sun Cejun’s trick to lure the enemy.”
Gan Ning and Xu Sheng also felt that Sun Ce’s retreat was a bit strange.
Cai Zhong said,
“It’s normal for Sun Ce’s army to be in chaos after Yuzhang was captured. Wouldn’t it be a waste of opportunity if we don’t pursue at this time?”
Cai He also echoed.
In fact, the two of them couldn’t understand Lu Xun and the other three in their hearts.
In their eyes, Gan Ning is a water thief, someone who could not get along in Jingzhou before.
Lu Xun and Xu Sheng are also brats, and after only a few years of fighting, they have learned how to dictate.
Lu Xun advised again,
“Master, my lord just wants us to guard Jiangbei.” Cai Mao waved his hand,
“This opportunity is rare. It is a great opportunity to defeat Sun Ce in one fell swoop. As long as Sun Ce is defeated, Yuzhang will be stable, and my lord can even lead the army to take Jiangdong directly!”
Lu Xun wanted to persuade him again, Cai Mao was furious,
“Okay, I’m the coach. I’ll take Cai Zhong and Cai He to chase after him. Lu Xun, Gan Ning, Xu Sheng, you can just stay and stay at the water village with your troops!”
The credit is of course the Cai family themselves! soon,
Cai Mao sent all 40,000 sailors to the opposite bank and disappeared into the night.
Lu Xun, Gan Ning, and Xu Sheng looked helplessly at the distant warship,
Lu Xun frowned and said,
“You two, Cai Mao’s going here will definitely hit Sun Ce’s plan to retreat. Let’s take the boat behind to meet him.””it is good!”
Cai Mao was high-spirited and the wind was blowing slowly, which was in line with his mood at this time, “After this big victory, Liu Bei doesn’t want me to be the governor of Jingzhou.” Soon,
He caught up with the lagging Sun Ce warship, and destroyed several warships in an instant.
Cai Mao laughed loudly,
“Little Lu Xun is still worried that Sun Ce’s army will set up an ambush, and he is as timid as a mouse, how can anything be done!”
He waved his hand, chase!
The result can be imagined,
Cai Mao’s warship soon fell into heavy siege by Sun Ce’s army.
On all sides warships rushed out of the darkness,
Thousands of arrows in the river are fired, rockets, kerosene, all greet Cai Mao’s fleet! Sun Ce laughed loudly on the upstairs boat,
“Gongjin, this plan is very clever, Cai Mao is also greedy for meritorious deeds.” Zhou Yu also laughed,
“Cai Mao is eager to make meritorious service, so he will not listen to persuasion, and he should fail like this” Soon,
Dozens of Cai Mao’s warships were destroyed almost instantly, and his main ship was also set on fire, billowing with smoke! The flames on the river were soaring into the sky, and the screams were endless. Just when Cai Mao was in despair,
Hundreds of warships came from the west, breaking through a gap in Sun Ce’s encirclement,
It’s Lu Xun and Gan Ning,
Cai Mao hurriedly told the soldiers to retreat towards the gap!
Sun Ce and Zhou Yu did not continue to entangle, after harvesting a wave, led the troops to continue eastward,
The key for them now is to get Chaisang back and take back Nanchang City! …
early morning,
After Cai Mao counted the losses, he found that nearly a hundred warships had been lost, and nearly ten thousand soldiers and horses had been killed.
He didn’t dare to chase anymore, but led his troops to recover Shaxian City and waited for Liu Bei’s army.
A few days later, Liu Bei led an army to Shaxian City, and Cai Mao pleaded guilty.
“My lord, a certain aggressive advance caused our army to be defeated. Please punish me, my lord.” Liu Bei helped Cai Mao up,
“Degui was able to block Sun Ce from the south of the Yangtze River, and he has completed the task I gave him. This time, the merits and demerits will be equalized.”
Liu Bei said again,
“De Gui, I intend to ask you to go to Chang’an for Da Hong Lu?”
Dahonglu was ranked among the Jiuqing, and his status was higher than that of the governor.
Cai Mao did not expect that after the defeat, the lord would return him the position of Jiuqing.
I am grateful,
“Thank you my lord”
Although he will leave Jingzhou with this move, the lord is likely to become the emperor in the future, and he can also flex his muscles if he goes to Chang’an to develop.
Liu Bei assigned 20,000 of the remaining 30,000 sailors to Lu Xun, Gan Ning, and Xu Sheng, and let Cai Zhong and Cai He lead the other 10,000 to garrison Xiakou.
He didn’t stay too long, but led 90,000 troops, marched by land and water, and headed towards Chaisang!
He also sent Huang Zhong to lead the elite cavalry first, spread scout cavalry widely, and went to reinforce Chaisang.

Chaisang City, the bridgehead of Yuzhang County, with a river and a lake, leaning against Mount Lu, is an important military town that must be contested by military strategists.
At this time, there is also the sound of shouting and killing,
Sun Ce’s 70,000 troops attacked Chaisang on land and water day and night! The small catapults on the tower boat roared and threw them into the city,
Outside the city, Sun Jun set up a ladder, pushed a chariot, and charged to the death under the rain of arrows!
Cheng Pu, Lu Meng, Huang Gai, Jiang Qin, Dong Xi, Ling Tong and others attacked in turn, almost breaking the city several times.
Fortunately, Taishi Ci is brave and good at archery, and his men are all elites who are good at archery, and they desperately defend Chaisang.
There is also a large number of Sun Jun’s luggage in the city, and there are dozens of catapults, which are just used to defend the city.
Even so,
The 7,000 soldiers and horses brought by Tai Shici have killed and injured more than 3,000 people. Both sides know the importance of Chaisang.
When Sun Ce takes it back, he can use it as a base to resist Liu Bei’s incoming troops, and then send another army to attack Nanchang City.
If Liu Bei defends Chaisang, half of the Yuzhang will belong to Liu Bei, and even the whole Yuzhang will be taken.
Sun Ce was also very uncomfortable on the building boat,
Chaisang City is small, the army can’t deploy, and he doesn’t count the casualties in the attack, the casualties have already exceeded 10,000, but still can’t break through the city.
“Gongjin, how long do you think we can break the city?”
Zhou Yu shook his head,
“My lord, Tai Shi is kind and brave. The soldiers and horses he brought this time are all good at shooting. I’m afraid our army will last for more than three days.”
“Three days? I’m afraid Liu Bei won’t give us three days. If I attack violently today, we must break the city!”
“promise!”
In Chaisang City,
Tai Shici’s eyes were red, and he basically slept for half an hour every day in the past few days, “Everyone, the lord will entrust us with the heavy responsibility. The city is alive, and the city is dead!”
Several captains clasped their fists together,
“All at the command of the general!”
The sound of war drums outside the city suddenly sounded, and the horn sounded for a long time, and a new round of siege began again!
In half a day, Tai Shici suffered thousands of casualties and successfully repelled Sun Jun’s attack.
in the afternoon,
But Sun Jun withdrew suddenly, boarded a boat and went downstream, Tai Shici licked his chapped lips, and shouted, 450 “Brothers, reinforcements have arrived, Sun Jun has retreated!”
The soldiers all let out a long breath and shouted,
An hour later, Huang Zhong led the cavalry to the city, saw that the land outside the city was dyed red, he let out a long sigh,
“Ziyi worked hard”
At noon the next day, Liu Bei rushed to Chaisang City with his troops and announced on the spot that all the soldiers defending the city had made great achievements and asked them to rest well.
Liu Bei grabbed Taishi Ci’s hand,
“Ziyi is brave, he fought against Sun Ce’s generals alone, it’s hard work”
Tai Shici smiled and said,
“Subordinates will fight to the death to defend Chaisang!”
Liu Bei named Tai Shici on the spot as the captain of Shesheng, with a rank of two thousand stones, in recognition of his surprise attack on Yuzhang and his defense of Chai Sang.
Pang Tong began to report information,
“My lord, Sun Ce led the troops to the east and sent Zhou Yu to garrison Pengze Water Village with a navy to block our army’s eastward advance to Jiangdong. He personally led troops to garrison Panyang City, and sent Cheng Pu to garrison Geyang Fortress to cut off the passage from Yuzhang to Kuaiji County. the way”
Liu Bei looked around, “Lu Xun listens!”
“Subordinates”
“I ordered you to be the chief general with 30,000 sailors to fight against Zhou Yu, with Gan Ning and Xu Sheng to assist him!”
“promise!”
Lu Xun was very excited. He was promoted as a general at a young age, which showed how much the lord valued him.
Liu Bei laughed and said,
“Zhou Gongjin is wiseI am resourceful, Lu Boyan is also very resourceful, I am worthy of him, you just need to hold Zhou Yu back.”
“Subordinates take orders”
“Ziyi, you lead troops to repair in Chaisang”
“promise”
“Sun Ce’s skin is itching again, a certain person led an army to Panyang City, and fought with Sun Ce in Yuzhang”
Liu Bei looked at Lu Su again,
“Zijing, I ordered you to be the prefect of Yuzhang. It is up to you to protect the environment and the people.”
“promise!”
