Chapter 067

"Wind! Gale! Wind, gale!"

On the mound in the distance, a burst of angry shouts suddenly sounded.

"Boom!"

The chaotic sound of horse hooves sounded, and the first thing that caught his eye was a flash of black appearing on the horizon.

On the horizon, one military chariot after another suddenly appeared, with flags covering the sky and a forest of swords and spears!

The crimson flag representing the Wu army fluttered in the wind, dyeing the entire earth red.

Behind the group of chariots, there were soldiers who looked like a vast ocean. They were wearing strong armor and marching forward in an orderly manner.

With every step he took, he shouted "big wind" and kept pushing forward like an overwhelming force.

"Wu Jun! It's Wu Jun!"

Upon seeing this, the soldiers of the Chu army couldn't help but change their colors and shouted loudly.

Shen Yinshu couldn't help but widen his eyes and looked at the approaching Wu Jun in disbelief.

Looking around, one can see a large area of ​​crimson and smoke and dust, making it impossible to tell how many soldiers and horses the Wu army has!

"superior!"

"Seize the city gate quickly!"

Shen Yinshu quickly ordered, but it was too late.

Seeing their own reinforcements arriving, Hei Fu and the other Wu army officers couldn't help but be overjoyed. They immediately gathered at the city gate under Hei Fu's call and tried their best to protect it, preventing the invading enemy troops from taking a step forward!

"kill!"

The fighting was going on at the city gate.

Shen Yinshu didn't understand why this Wu army suddenly appeared in Zuzi City?

Moreover, he didn't even receive any news beforehand!

It can be seen that this should not be Wu Jun's main force!

At this moment, Qing Ji stood on the military chariot, commanding the central army, and commanded his troops to attack the Chu army, which was in disarray.

"Fire the arrow!"

Following Qing Ji's order, the chariots separated, and groups of archers came out from the phalanx at the back. They immediately unfurled their bows and nocked arrows, and fired a large number of arrows upwards in a uniform manner.

This is the modern equivalent of fire coverage.

The hit rate is not important. When a round of arrows rain down, some unlucky guy will die!

No, the rain of arrows fired by the Wu army was like locusts crossing the border, instantly killing dozens of Chu soldiers who were caught off guard, causing a large number of casualties.

They wailed one by one, fell into a pool of blood, and died.

"Military vehicles, attack!"

Qingji pulled out the Longyuan Sword from his waist again, shouted loudly, and hundreds of chariots that had been ready to go suddenly galloped forward like wild horses that had escaped the reins.

The chariot group rushed towards the Chu army's phalanx at a lightning speed!

"Pfft!"

"Whoosh!"

The soldiers of the Wu army on the chariot are unstoppable. One drives a horse, another shoots arrows, and another wields a sword to assassinate. The combination complements each other.

Any enemy who dared to come forward to fight was stabbed under his horse or shot away by a chariot and died.

This kind of chariot is like a tank or an armored vehicle in modern warfare. It is very powerful. Fighting a chariot with infantry is tantamount to hitting an egg against a rock and asking for death!

Soon, the Wu army's chariots fought a bloody path and headed towards the city of Zuzi.

"Hateful, hateful!"

Seeing that his own soldiers were in disarray and unable to stop the sudden appearance of the Wu army, Shen Yinshu could not help but beat his chest and stamp his feet, feeling very unhappy.

Seeing that the city of Zuzi was about to be conquered, a Wu army suddenly came out to turn the tide and change the situation of the war. How could Shen Yinshu be willing to do so?

However, it is obviously not a wise move to fight Wu Jun head-on at this time!

Although the Chu army has a large number of people, it is distributed around the city of Zuzi, making it difficult to mobilize for a while. If this continues, it is very likely that the Wu army will be defeated one by one by the sudden incoming Wu army.

Therefore, when Shen Yinshu saw that the situation was not good, he immediately ordered a retreat and ordered the troops to withdraw with gold!



After the Chu army retreated, Qingji led his troops into the city of Zuzi, built fortifications, consolidated the city's defenses, and sent people to properly place the wounded soldiers and bury the bodies of the fallen soldiers of the Wu and Chu armies.

Night falls.

In his spare time, Qing Ji went to the Zhizi Mansion Office to visit Hei Fu.

"King!"

Seeing Qingji arrive, Heifu, who had just received treatment, struggled to get up and salute Qingji, but was stopped by the latter.

"Hei Fu, you are injured, so there is no need to be polite."

Hearing this, Hei Fu said gratefully: "Your Majesty, I am fortunate to have fulfilled my mission and defended the city of Zuzi for your Majesty. If your Majesty hadn't arrived in time with your troops, I would have died, for fear that Zuzi would fall into the hands of the enemy!"

"..."

Qingji was silent for a while.

In fact, Qingji only asked Heifu to hold on to Zuzi City for ten days, but the latter held on for a full fifteen days, which was considered to be an overfulfillment of the task!

If things are going to be like this, what more could you ask for?

Qing Ji patted Hei Fu on the shoulder and said with sincerity: "Hei Fu, please take good care of yourself and cultivate your body. Leave the rest to me."

"promise!"

Heifu agreed and then asked: "I wonder, how does the king plan to deal with the Chu army?"

Qing Ji pondered for a moment and then said: "In this battle, I need to fight quickly. Although the Chu army has to go on an expedition, it has a large army of water and land, and it is coming fiercely. Therefore, I want to start with Chu's boat division, destroy its warships, and cut off the

Its food and baggage are heavy."

"If your Majesty wants to destroy Chu's fleet master, I'm afraid it won't be easy."

Heifu sighed.

How could Qingji not know?

As the dominant country in the south, the Chu State controlled the great rivers and had the world's leading fleet masters.

If not for this, the coalition of princes led by Jin and Qi would not have failed several times in attacking Chu and would have hated the river.

If we fight on land, the Chu army will not be able to defeat the chariots of the princes of the Central Plains. But if we fight on water, how can the weak boat divisions of the northern countries be the opponent of the Chu people?

Looking at the whole world, it is known to everyone that only the boat masters of Wu State can compete with the boat masters of Chu State.

"Your Majesty, as I see it, your Majesty wants to complete his success in one battle and defeat the Chu army as soon as possible. He should use outsmarts instead of confrontation. Your Majesty wants to burn the Chu people's boat divisions. I have a plan!"

"Speaking."

"I have been the guard general of Zuzi for a long time, and I know that less than forty miles away from the city of Zuzi, there is a place called Xikou on one side of the river. The terrain is narrow, and there is only one waterway leading to the river. The big wing and the middle wing cannot be passed.

, Du Xiaoyi, emerge suddenly, bridge and boat can pass."

"Moreover, there is a unique triangular zone there. If a group of warships is forced there, it will be easily stranded and it will be difficult to move forward or retreat."

After a pause, Heifu continued: "Your Majesty, you can try to lead the Chu army's boatmen to the mouth of the stream, and then attack them with fire ships. In this way, you will definitely succeed in the battle, and you may be able to force the Chu people to negotiate a peace."

"good!"

This news is very important to Qingji.

As the saying goes, only by knowing yourself and the enemy can you be victorious in every battle!

As an excellent commander, when commanding a battle, he must first examine the terrain and combine it with the weather. This is the right time, right place, and right people, and both are indispensable!

These are the three key factors for defeating the enemy.

At present, the Wu State is being attacked by a group of people, and the situation is extremely dangerous.

If the Chu army can be eliminated quickly and the Chu State is forced to negotiate peace, then the rest of the offensives of Helu, Han, and Yue will collapse!

There is only one great enemy of Wu State - Chu State!

The rest are all ordinary people.
Chapter completed!
