Guo Jia deserves to be called a genius, and the truth of the matter is exactly as he expected!
When Huang Zu secretly ambushed Jiangdong's army, he didn't know that he had already entered the ambush circle prepared by Lu Xun.
In order to ensure victory, Lu Xun personally led 30,000 naval troops.
Huang Zujun was newly defeated and his morale was low.
The ambush troops from all walks of life suddenly rushed out and dispersed almost instantly.
The remaining more than 5,000 people were also killed or injured in the battle.
If Huang Zu hadn't run so fast, he would have been captured by Lu Xun!
A monk who can run away cannot run away from the temple.
Although Huang Zu escaped, all the warships under his command belonged to Lu Xun.
Since then, Jiangxia Navy has completely withdrawn from the stage of history.
After defeating Huang Zu, Lu Xun immediately went to Wulin and led his troops to land.
He had already predicted that Zhu Ran and the others would be defeated if they went here!
This attack on the camp at night is almost like lice on the bald man's head, it's obvious!
Not to mention a wise man like Guo Jia, anyone with a little intelligence can see through it.
Lu Xun promised Zhu Ran to go, but there was nothing he could do about it.
Jiangdong's army, from the deputy governor Zhu Zhi to the ordinary captains, were all high-spirited and prepared to defeat Cao's army.
Lu Xun forcibly suppressed the generals and prevented them from fighting, which would only damage his own morale.
Furthermore, how could the whole army be against the head coach?
Zhu Zhi is an old minister of the Sun family, and Zhu Ran is Sun Quan's younger brother. They have an irreversible relationship!
With the father and son reporting to Sun Quan, Lu Xun's position as governor was finally over!
It was completely helpless to send two powerful generals to Zhu Ran and take them with 9,000 people.
Lu Xun didn't even think about achieving half the results.
As long as Zhu Ran is fine, it doesn't matter even if he loses thousands of troops!
With this lesson learned, no one will attack lightly in the future.
This casualty can reduce greater casualties in the future. This is Lu Xun's brilliance.
Furthermore, Lu Xun did not only see defeat.
If not, how could he have no other arrangements at all?
When Cao Cao ordered Huang Zu to retreat five miles, Lu Xun saw through Cao Cao's intentions.
Lu Xun had an idea and took advantage of the situation to solve the biggest crisis for him at present.
To put it bluntly, Lu Xun did not take Cao Cao's army seriously at all.
No matter how strong Cao Cao is and how elite Cao Cao's army is, can you still move mountains and fill seas?
If not, not to mention 150,000 people, even 1.5 million people will drown in the Yangtze River!
In any case, Lu Xun had no intention of breaking into Nanjun. No matter how strong Cao's army was in land warfare, it would have no use at all.
But the five thousand Jiangxia navy is different!
In terms of the quality of the soldiers, their elite level, and their experience in water warfare, the Jiangxia Navy is second only to the Chaisang Navy led by Zhou Yu.
Jiangxia Navy is much stronger than the navy led by Lu Xun!
Now that Chai Sang Navy has been taken to the Lujiang River, it shows that the Jiangxia Navy is considered an invincible opponent across the Yangtze River!
Why Lu Xun had been stationed in Xiakou before was for two reasons.
First, he didn't want to put pressure on Cao Cao and let him fight with Liu Bei An Xin.
The second is that they don't want to use the current Jiangdong Navy to face Huang Zu's Jiangxia Navy.
Lu Xun's men said they had an army of 50,000, but in fact they were just pieced together.
The combat effectiveness of some soldiers is completely invisible!
If the main battlefield hadn't been on the Yangtze River, Lu Xun wouldn't have brought his troops out of the city at all!
Who would have thought that Cao Cao had a brain attack and had to have Lu Xun operated on?
Forced into desperation, Lu Xun could only take a preemptive strike and occupy the dangerous water area first.
The result is great joy!
Huang Zu, the commander-in-chief of the Jiangxia Navy, was greedy for power and rushed forward, killing nearly half of his soldiers in one battle!
Unexpectedly, this is not over yet, Cao Cao comes to give gifts in person again!
How dare Lu Xun disappoint the King of Wei? Immediately annihilate all the Jiangxia naval forces as a token of gratitude!
The moment Jiang Xia's navy was destroyed, Lu Xun's heart dropped completely to the ground.
Cao's 150,000 troops could not stand Lu Xun's eyes.
From now on, you can truly sit back and relax!
Afterwards, Lu Xun personally led his troops to land in Wulin, ambushing the main roads on both sides with strong bows and crossbows.
When Cao's army arrived, thousands of arrows were fired, and then ambushes appeared.
Caught off guard, Cao's army suffered heavy casualties and was immediately defeated and fled, which was a normal process.
No matter how elite the soldiers are, they will face the same fate when faced with this situation.
Cao's army was like this, and even Qin's army would be like this.
Being ambushed in the dark, fear is human nature!
After repelling Cao's army, Lu Xun did not order a pursuit, but immediately gathered his troops and boarded the warship, and the entire army returned to the Chibi military camp.
Cao's army numbered 150,000, and it was impossible to kill them all.
Lu Xun knew exactly how big the gap between Jiangdong soldiers and Cao Jun soldiers was in the land battle.
How could he bring trouble to himself and pursue deeply to give Cao Cao a chance to counterattack?
The elimination of Huang Zu's navy this time was already a complete victory.
Ambushing Cao Jun is also considered as charging interest.
Lu Xun still understands the principle of not pursuing poor enemies!
Through this battle, Lu Xun completely won over the generals.
Zhu Zhi, Zhu Ran and his son, Ling Cao, Dong Xi and other generals admired Lu Xun even more.
It was obviously a huge defeat, but it was easily reversed by Lu Xun.
Jiangdong's army suffered more than 3,000 casualties in exchange for the destruction of more than 5,000 Jiangxia naval forces and the ambush of thousands of Cao's troops.
A complete victory!
Lu Xun also took the lead in achieving results in terms of strategy and resourcefulness.
After this battle, Cao's army lost troops and generals again!
The prestige of Wei King Cao Cao has been greatly reduced again!
Xiangyang suffered two disastrous defeats, and Cao Cao could still use Xiahou Dun to escape.
But this time in Chibi, Wulin was defeated twice, but Cao Cao personally planned it, so what excuses could there be to evade it?
Who would have thought that Cao Cao, who had dominated the world for many years, would be defeated by a weak young man in strategy?
The results of this battle also seemed to illustrate a problem.
Now it is no longer a shame for Cao Cao alone, but a shame for all the civil and military forces of Cao Cao.
From Cao Cao's entire army to Cao Cao, no one could be Lu Xun's opponent!
The most unjust person was none other than military advisor Guo Jia.
If Cao Cao had not made his own decision and had to dispatch Huang Zu to annihilate the Jiangdong Army, Lu Xun would not have been able to take advantage of it.
If Cao Cao listened to Guo Jia's strategy, he would focus on luring the enemy deep into the ambush, and place the ambush on Jiangdong's escape route.
How far Zhu Ran's nine thousand troops can go back is still unknown!
By following Guo Jia's plan, Huang Zu's navy would not be in any danger, and Jiangdong's army would not only lose more than 3,000 men.
Even if Cao Jun pursued to the shore and was ambushed by Lu Xun, the casualties would not be too great.
This battle has resulted in this outcome.
Lu Xun's good luck accounted for a huge factor!
Of course, Guo Jia's failure cannot be entirely blamed on Cao Cao.
If he had persisted a little longer, the outcome might have been different.
All in all, Cao Cao lost and Cao Jun lost.
Even to a certain extent, Lu Xun and the Jiangdong Army led by him lost.
The only one who didn't lose was Guo Jia!
