Summary of the previous chapter: The Battle of Chibi gradually became intense. Zhou Yu was indeed a water warfare general. He not only resisted Cao's army with 50,000 allied troops and horses, but even gained some advantages... And Ma Xiaoquan, because he wanted to protect Zhou Yu,
Already hit by more than eighty arrows...
Zhou Yu could clearly see that Master Shangxian had many arrows in his body. Originally, Zhou Yu thought that Master Shangxian should be invulnerable since he was a Shangxian. However, he saw that Master Shangxian would bring out arrows every time he pulled out his body.
When blood was drawn, Zhou Yu was confused again.
What made Zhou Yu even more confused was that although he saw Lord Shangxian bleeding, he did not see him fall. Instead, he pulled out the arrow and continued to protect himself.
With a "puff" sound, Zhou Yu cut down an enemy soldier, threw himself in front of Ma Xiaoquan, and said, "Master Shangxian, how are you?"
Ma Xiaoquan responded angrily: "You can't die, you kid. Don't think that you won't die because I'm protecting you. I've blocked more than 80 of these rogue arrows for you. You kid should restrain yourself."
Ordered."
Zhou Yu chuckled, patted his chest and said, "Master Shangxian, if I don't kill the enemy together with the soldiers, then we will be defeated."
Ma Xiaoquan waved his hand: "You're here, I helped you block more than 80 arrows, and you just killed more than 80 people. You feel great, but I feel miserable!"
Zhou Yu laughed and said: "Although Master Shangxian was hit by more than eighty arrows, how can I look so good?"
Ma Xiaoquan cursed in his heart: Nonsense, if I hadn't eaten two eggs before, on this battlefield, even if I didn't die, I would have been shot into a hedgehog.
...
Zhou Yu did not listen to Ma Xiaoquan's advice and still took the lead in killing the enemy with his soldiers, while Ma Xiaoquan became a pure coolie.
Ma Xiaoquan and Cao Cao had a good relationship. Although Cao Cao knew that he was with the coalition, it didn't mean that he would show off to Cao Cao for confirmation. Therefore, before Zhou Yu went into battle to kill the enemy, Ma Xiaoquan changed his appearance and put a sticker on his face.
He wore a human skin mask and tied his hair with cloth ribbons... Zhou Yu could see the whole transformation process clearly, so Zhou Yu got to know Ma Xiaoquan after the transformation.
However, there are always curious people among the soldiers, especially when they see Ma Xiaoquan surviving and jumping around after being shot by a stray arrow.
...
"Kill" a Cao soldier raised his spear and attacked Ma Xiaoquan.
This is already the twenty-third time that Ma Xiaoquan has blocked Cao Bing. On the one hand, he has to protect Zhou Yu, and on the other hand, he has to guard against the threat from Cao Bing. Although such threats have little effect, Ma Xiaoquan has set himself up.
The principle is not to kill Cao Bing.
How not to kill? This question made Ma Xiaoquan very troubled.
Most of Cao's soldiers were from the north. Even if Ma Xiaoquan didn't kill them, he would still drown if he accidentally kicked them into the water. Furthermore, due to their special status, many of Cao's soldiers knew about their imperial power.
He had fire ability, so Ma Xiaoquan didn't even think about using flames.
The firebending ability cannot be used, but the gravity-changing ability can be used.
Ma Xiaoquan was like a piece of paper, floating here and hiding there, but the incoming Cao soldiers always missed him.
Among Cao's soldiers, Xu Huang saw Ma Xiaoquan in disguise and cursed: "Damn...who is that...let me do it!"
After saying that, Xu Huang raised his big ax and jumped over in a few bounds.
"Take the move!"
Ma Xiaoquan was startled. He looked up and saw that the big ax was already in front of him.
Xu Huang's martial arts are good, and the pair of axes in his hands are not only sharp, but also very heavy. Ordinary swords and guns cannot come into contact with his axes, otherwise they will be pressed or even cut off by the weight of the axes.
Ma Xiao had lived in Cao Ying for a long time and had met Xu Huang several times, and knew how powerful his ax was.
"Well done!" Ma Xiaoquan shouted loudly and exhaled heavily. His body seemed to have no weight, and he was pushed backwards by his own breath.
Xu Huang was slightly startled, and immediately turned the axe, changing it from a slash to a sweep.
Ma Xiaoquan had long expected that Xu Huang would make this move. Seeing Xu Huang change his move, he exhaled and changed his direction again.
"Huhu"
"Boom..."
Xu Huang's ax did not hit Ma Xiaoquan's body, but hit the side of the ship, making a shattering roar.
"Hmph!" Xu Huang's first blow failed, but he was not discouraged and followed closely with his second blow.
Ma Xiaoquan had so much practical experience that he had long predicted that Xu Huang would have a back-up move. Just as Xu Huang's big ax struck, Ma Xiaoquan squatted down, stepped forward, and pushed Xu Huang's axe.
On hand.
If he were on land, Xu Huang would not be affected by Ma Xiaoquan's pushy palm at all, but... now he is on a boat and he can't swim...
"Ah" Xu Huang screamed miserably, stumbled a few times, and fell into the water.
"Uh" Ma Xiaoquan saw Xu Huang falling into the water and quickly kicked down a piece of wood.
Xu Huang, who had fallen into the water, raised his head and glanced at Ma Xiaoquan suspiciously. At this time, Zhou Yu stepped up, bow and arrow ready to shoot Xu Huang to death.
Ma Xiaoquan hit Zhou Yu with one blow, shook his head and said: "Gong Jin, this person's life should not be cut off. If you insist on having your own way, don't blame me for being rude!"
Zhou Yu was stunned for a moment. He wanted to resist Ma Xiaoquan, but when he glanced sideways, he actually saw the light red flames rising from the opponent's hand.
Zhou Yu swallowed his saliva and said: "Then let that guy go! Haha..."
Xu Huang was very puzzled. Just now, when Zhou Yu opened his bow and nocked an arrow to shoot himself, the man with a cloth bandage on his head stopped Zhou Yu from shooting him. Moreover, what did the two of them say? Zhou Yu actually threw the bow and arrow away.
Dropped.
At this moment, I couldn't help but think too much, let's sneak away first. Xu Huang couldn't swim, but by using the buoyancy of the board and using his two hands as paddles, he could do whatever he wanted.
After watching Xu Huang paddle far away, Ma Xiaoquan lowered his guard, picked up the bow and arrow from the ground with his foot, and returned it to Zhou Yu.
The target was far away. Although Zhou Yu still had the intention to kill Xu Huang, he had no choice but to do so.
...
Zhou Yu was not too entangled. Killing one of the opponent's generals might not lead to overall victory. Instead of getting angry with Lord Shangxian, the right answer would be to kill more enemies.
Seeing Zhou Yu rushing into the enemy group again, Ma Xiaoquan was angry and laughing at the same time. In desperation, he had no choice but to follow him into the enemy group to protect Zhou Yu.
...
Just as the two armies continued to fight, a north wind blew in the sky.
Originally, Cao's army was mostly composed of northern soldiers. Let alone the north wind, no matter what kind of wind it was, they would not be able to bear it.
In an instant, most of Cao's soldiers began to vomit. The scene was very spectacular under the light of the fire.
On the other hand, throughout the coalition forces, there were almost no vomiters. Not only were there none, but they were very adaptable to the swinging of the warships.
On the main ship of Cao Cao's army, Cai Mao saw that the situation was not right and immediately asked Cao Cao for instructions to retreat.
Seeing the fierce killing in front, Cao Cao was very unwilling to give in, but... More than 100,000 people of his own had met with 32yi from the coalition forces. So far, more than 10,000 people had been killed, while the coalition forces had killed more than 10,000 people.
, it is said that less than 500 people were lost.
Cao Cao was very unwilling. If the battlefield was on land, Cao Cao would definitely let his 100,000 people crush the coalition's 32, but...
"Young Sun Quan, you big-eared thief, I will fuck your grandma..."
Cao Cao put down his last harsh words and reluctantly ordered his troops to retreat.
At this time, the coalition forces had already gained momentum. As soon as they heard Cao Jun's call for gold, they all attacked even more unscrupulously, as if they had been given blood.
At this time, Zhou Yu, as the commander-in-chief of the navy, immediately ordered a halt to the in-depth pursuit.
Although the coalition officers and soldiers were unwilling, they still resolutely carried out the orders of the Governor.
...
Watching Cao's army gradually withdraw, Ma Xiaoquan sat down on the deck of the ship, breathing heavily.
Statistics on the results of the battle were quickly reported. Cao's army lost a total of 13,000 people, while on the coalition side, Wu's army lost more than 500, and Liu Bei's army lost 1,200. Overall, this was an absolute battle.
's great victory.
But... although Cao Cao retreated, hundreds of thousands of troops were still gathered in Wulin. If they didn't take it all in one go, and waited for Cao Cao's army to regroup, then they would fight again, and the coalition forces would definitely be defeated.
Zhou Yu immediately called Huang Gai and ordered him to leave immediately and pretend to surrender to Cao Cao.
Huang Gai nodded and accepted the order and descended.
