Zhuge Liang's hands were shaking.
When he commanded the left-wing army to catch up, he knew that Zhou Yu might be deceitful, but he did not expect that Zhou Yu could be so cruel.
The moment he saw most of the left-wing army being attracted to the north bank by Zhou Yu's flagship, he made a prompt decision and commanded his ship to retreat.
Retreat to the right wing military office behind.
Part of the right-wing army was still dealing with the cannon fodder abandoned by Zhou Yu, and most of the rest followed Zhuge Liang in pursuit.
When he retreated into the main army, Zhuge Liang personally ordered a dozen messengers and asked them to move all the right-wing army units to the south bank no matter what method they used.
When the right-wing army generals were executing their orders, the river embankment on the north bank was dug up, and the left-wing army was swept to land by the crazy river water, but the right-wing army was fine because of Zhuge Liang's reminder.
The officers and soldiers of the right-wing army stared blankly at the roaring flood. They were glad that they were not involved, but also sad for what happened to their comrades.
At this time, Zhuge Liang had calmed down. He only gave himself a few breaths to calm down, and then quickly devoted himself to command.
On the water, Cao's army did not give orders and prohibitions like Jiangdong's army. The three counselors always used flags to give the direction of the attack, and used drums to tell the rhythm of the attack. Then each commander would decide how to attack.
But when half of the soldiers were involved in the flood, Zhuge Liang decided to temporarily change the situation.
He made the dozen or so messengers run quickly, and through various methods such as drum beats and flags, including word of mouth, he made all the generals of the right-wing army follow his orders.
The chaotic battle formation formed a new front and faced Zhou Yu's ambush.
Behind Zhuge Liang, the three counselors could not keep calm for a long time, and the three of them kept walking around in the boathouse.
They had never seen such a desperate strategy to dig up a dam. However, Cao Wu and Zhuge Liang's performance was perfect. Even Cao Cao's mastermind Xun You didn't think he could surpass Zhuge Liang.
"Reorganize the formation in a short period of time and fight again. Zhuge Kongming can really be called a crouching dragon!"
Xun You said.
Cheng Yu said nervously: "But I don't know if I can break through Zhou Yu."
Jia Xu smiled bitterly: "Everyone in the world calls me a poisonous person, but now it seems that I am worse than Zhou Yu. Three families are fighting for supremacy, and his plan to destroy two families is really vicious."
Xun You sighed: "Thanks to Xiao Wu for turning the tide and saving hundreds of thousands of soldiers."
Xun You and Cheng Yu already had a very high opinion of Cao Wu. This time, Cao Wu saw Cao Wu's tactics and blocked the river bank with large ships. His bravery and strategy impressed them even more.
The three people believe that Zhou Yu's few soldiers were originally used to fight against the low morale of Cao's army. Now that Zhuge Liang has reorganized his army so quickly, Zhou Yu will either retreat or be defeated.
Just as he was talking, Zhuge Liang asked outside the door: "Three princes, the front army is about to join the battle. Do you have any instructions?"
The three of them looked at each other and Xun You said: "No, Kong Ming has handled everything very well in this battle, just go ahead and do it!"
Zhuge Liang took reassurance in his heart. Looking at Zhou Yu's five thousand remaining soldiers, he felt heroic in his heart. Our army structure is still there, and the morale of the personnel is stable. Why do you, a guy like you, ambush me?
On his ship, three military division flags were pressed down on Zhou Yu's remaining soldiers at the same time, and more than a dozen drums were beaten at the same time.
Amidst the banging of drums, the main force of Cao's army met the main force of Jiangdong's army again.
When the Yi side fought again, Zhou Yu only had 5,000 men. As soon as they came into contact, they fell into the sea of Cao's army.
Of course, Zhou Yu still worked hard and commanded the troops like an arm and a finger.
However, gradually, Zhou Yu's heart cooled down.
He made so many plans just to use these five thousand people to clean up the opponent's remaining troops.
In his plan, after experiencing a scene like a flood, Cao's army would lose morale even if it did not collapse.
When the time comes, these soldiers will be enough to beat up the drowned dog.
But he never expected that even though everything was going well, Cao Jun not only did not have a morale disorder, but also inexplicably stabilized himself.
Most of the ships of Cao's left wing army were scrapped and could not participate in the battle. However, the thunderous shouts inspired everyone in the right wing army.
He found that not only the morale of Cao Cao's army was still there, but the command and dispatch were also different from before. In the past, Cao Jun was easily fooled by his arrangements. But now, Cao Jun seems to have a brain, and his reactions are faster and more correct.
He still carried out the strategic purpose of surprise attack on the opponent's flagship, and all his combat power was directed at Zhuge Liang. However, Zhuge Liang mobilized his troops and generals, but protected himself to death, preventing Zhou Yu from having any chance.
It is impossible to use this surprise attack too much. The same opportunity cannot be given to Zhou Yu again!
In Zhou Yu's case, Chen Wu and Yuan Lin died. There were no court pillars in the army, and only the injured Ling Tong was still there. The Jiangdong Army was not fully organized, so when fighting, the heat was always a bit low.
As one goes and the other goes, he gradually realizes that he can't win.
This was an upright battle. Zhuge Wolong used his increasingly sophisticated command skills to completely suppress Zhou Yu. It is not only Cao Jun's crushing of Jiangdong Army's hard power, but also Cao Jun's confrontation with Jiangdong Army's soft power after having the correct command.
"Long live the Prime Minister! Long live General Beifu!"
Those shouts on the north bank aroused the morale of the entire Cao army and were the last straw that broke the Jiangdong army.
That big banner represents everything. In the past, Cao Cao was there and Cao Jun was there. Now there is another Beifu general.
Cao Wu and Zhuge Liang, two young men who were just showing their talents, saved Cao's army at the same time.
They revitalized the army in a very short period of time, turned the waste navy into a combatable soldier, and reunited the army that had almost collapsed into a unified force.
Cao Wu in Beifu, Zhuge Wolong, the dragon fights the Yangtze River, and swallows up the east of the Yangtze River!
The morale of Cao's army was so strong that Zhou Yu could not find any weaknesses.
When the number dropped from 5,000 to 3,000, Jiangdong's army could still fight, but Zhou Yu showed his intention to retreat.
Zhou Yu regretted it. When the opponent maintained their formation and rushed over, it meant that his strategy had failed and he should have retreated at that time.
He had sacrificed so much for such a complete strategy, even sacrificing the lives of several generals.
Is this the final result?
"Long live General Beifu..."
Zhou Yu chewed on the other party's shouts.
"This General of Beifu is the Cao Wu that Mi Zifang mentioned. I didn't expect that the other general would actually be him... I failed all my strategies and failed at his hands! The person who deceived the lord must be him too. Already..."
Zhou Yu looked blankly at the turbulent water of the river.
Just a quarter of an hour ago, the Yangtze River burst its banks and Cao's army was defeated. He was so high-spirited.
He is as smart as a monster, scheming with the world, and he is as strong as a phoenix, but he still fools him around, but now...
There was only bitterness in his heart.
After this battle, Jingzhou could no longer take it, and Jiangdong also lost its elite navy.
After this battle, Sun Quan will be able to retreat to six counties.
Jiangdong was defeated.
With a "pop" sound, Zhou Yu vomited blood, took a few steps back, and fell on the deck.
The soldiers nearby were in chaos. However, Lu Meng, Lu Xun, and Pang Tong, who had been around Zhou Yu since the war started, were all gone, and the soldiers were suddenly in a state of confusion.
Zhou Yu weakly raised his hand and issued the order to withdraw his troops.
He lay on the deck, looked at the sky, and murmured to himself in a low voice: "Since Yu is born, how can there be nothing..."
Then there were several more low voices: "Since Yu is born, how can there be nothing!"
Immediately, he said angrily: "Beifu General Cao Wu! If I don't avenge this revenge, I will not be a human being!"
…
Jiangdong's army withdrew, and this time there was no ambush. Cao's army covered them all the way and chased for dozens of miles. They stopped when they saw the Xiakou city wall.
In the end, the number of Jiangdong's troops who successfully escaped was less than 2,000, and Jiangdong's elite were completely destroyed.
Zhuge Liang ordered the troops to retreat and temporarily stationed on the south bank of the Yangtze River, because the north side of the river bank could be flooded at any time.
He himself led a group of clippers back upriver.
The battle is over, but at the breach of the river bank, many ships of Cao's left wing army are still there, and many people still need to be rescued.
When Zhuge Liang returned, the left-wing army had already carried out self-rescue under the command of the generals, and the surviving soldiers were being transferred to ships that could still move.
He looked around and saw that more than 100,000 Cao's troops were suffering. He couldn't help but sigh. Although this battle was won, it was such a tragic victory. It was really impressive for Zhou Yu to defeat 20,000 people like this.
Because there were too many ships and too many people, Zhuge Liang had no idea what was happening to the five-toothed ship inside, but he couldn't get in, so he could only worry.
After a while, the military commander who was sent to investigate hurriedly ran over and shouted: "Commander, what's wrong! General Beifu is missing!"
"What?"
Zhuge Liang suddenly trembled all over.
"It was said that there were repeated collisions. Many of the big ships failed to hold on and fell into the water. General Beifu was also knocked into the water. General Xu and General Heng are looking for him!"
"What! Take me there quickly, I want to find him too!"
Zhuge Liang was about to step into the water, but was pulled back by the military commander. He stepped on the capsized hull and rushed towards the deepest five-toothed ship bit by bit.
