200. The navy fights again
Zhou Yu was chasing him, and suddenly he saw the boat opposite him stop and couldn't leave. Zhou Yu immediately said happily: "I won't run away at last! I want to see when you can hide!"
Before he finished speaking, Zhou Yu suddenly found that the ship opposite had turned around. This was something that should have been happy. But at this moment, Zhou Yu felt a sudden slap in his heart for no reason, and he felt as if he had ignored something. At this moment, Zhou Yu felt the hull shock and asked quickly: "What's going on?"
"Report to the military advisor that something was underwater, and we were trapped when we stopped the bottom of the ship!" A navy soldier reported anxiously. Zhou Yu was shocked when he heard this. At this time, he hurriedly shouted: "Don't move forward, retreat the same way! All ships retreated the same way!" It was easy to say, but the ship behind him was too close to him. It was not that easy to turn around! Seeing that Liu Bei's navy ship had turned around and was heading towards him quickly! At this moment, his ship was still blocked here and could not move forward and retreat!
At this moment, the fleet led by Ding Feng arrived! With a loud crack, a big ship was knocked out of a big hole! At this time, the soldiers on the boat jumped into the water like dumplings. At this time, the winter was still in the middle of winter and the river was cold. If the soldiers who jumped down could not quickly get ashore or board the boat, they would soon be frozen in the water and then freeze to death!
Zhou Yu saw this and was furious. He shouted and ordered the soldiers to shoot arrows. But he could not stop Liu Bei's warship from colliding! Seeing that three ships had already been knocked out of the big hole, Zhou Yu closed his eyes and ordered: "Give up the ship!" The guards raised him and jumped onto the boat and rowed wildly towards the shore!
As Zhou Yu abandoned the ship and fled, the remaining large ships were unintentional to resist. Jiang Qin, who was commanding the rear ship, saw that Zhou Yu retreated and hurried to retreat as well. So he took the fifteen large ships he drove back, fearing that he would be caught up and overturned by others. In this way, the ten ships that were dispatched for the first time were knocked over five, and the remaining five were all captured by Ding Feng. As one went up and down, Sun Ce's number of large naval ships no longer had an advantage.
Less gossip, Ding Feng won a great victory the next day. Faced with such impressive results, Liu Bei immediately ordered a big celebration! Looking at Sun Ce's army, there was a bleak cloud of sorrow. The losses of the ten large ships were damaged, not to mention the soldiers on the ship! Therefore, the first thing Zhou Yu did when he returned to the camp was to send a large number of small boats to save people. Although it was over at this time, Zhou Yu was also thinking about how much he could save! After the ship was sent away, he began to ask someone to count the losses of the battle. This count was amazing. Less than 10% of the soldiers on the ten large ships came back, and the remaining 90% were either captured or drowned. Faced with such a tragic failure, Zhou Yu decided to go to Sun Ce to take the blame himself.
In the big tent, Zhou Yu knelt in front of Sun Ce to apologize. Sun Ce looked at Zhou Yu without saying a word. He didn't expect that his good brother would be defeated so badly. After watching for a long time, Sun Ce sighed and said, "Gongjin, get up first! You said that what should we do now?"
Zhou Yu said with a shame: "I never thought of falling into Liu Bei's army's humble plan. This is my fault. I am afraid that the only way to stick to it is to stick to it for now."
After hearing this, Sun Ce frowned and said, "The Yangtze River is so long and flows through a wide area. How can we defend it without the guarantee of the navy? If I were Liu Bei, I would still confront us here, and then send a boat to cross the river. Then attack our army from the land."
After hearing this, Zhou Yu sighed and said, "Lord, this is also the problem I am most worried about. There are cavalry benefits in the north. If there is no navy army to stop it, I am afraid that our army will definitely not be an enemy!"
"What should I do?" Sun Ce frowned. Just when he was worried, a person was lifting the curtain of the big tent. When Sun Ce saw that it was not someone else, it was Zhang Zhao, who was recently invited by him. Zhang Zhao, Zhang Zhao, was from Pengcheng. He crossed the south of the Yangtze River to Yangzhou in the early years. Sun Ce personally invited him out, and then appointed him as the chief minister, the rank of the army, the general of the army, and the civil and military affairs. He was entrusted to Zhao. This time, he went north to reject Liu, and Sun Ce kept him in the rear to prepare food and grass for the army only. Zhang Zhao came to the army today and heard that the navy had been defeated twice, so he immediately came to meet Sun Ce.
Sun Ce hurriedly asked Zhang Zhao to sit down and talk. Zhang Zhao immediately asked about the current situation of the navy. Zhou Yu said truthfully without hiding it. After hearing this, Zhang Zhao said, "Lord, for the sake of the current plan, the only way to retreat is to advance." Sun Ce said in confusion: "Zibu thinks, how should we retreat be to advance?"
Zhang Zhao smiled and said, "The lord is nothing more than Liu Bei's strong ship. If he lets him cross the river and advance south, the advantage of his ship will be useless. At that time, the lord will use a plan to destroy his army across the river." After Zhang Zhao said that, Zhou Yu was stunned, and then he said happily: "Zibu is right. Our army has been defeated twice! He pretends to be defeated, and then the main attack and retreat to lure him across the river. After he goes deeper, he can cut off his retreat and gather and annihilate him."
After hearing the two of them, Sun Ce immediately asked, "Since that's the case, can you grasp it?" Zhang Zhao and Zhou Yu looked at each other, and Zhang Zhao said, "After he crossed the river, the lord will take up all the right time, place, and people, and he will definitely defeat Liu Bei!" Sun Ce nodded after hearing this and said, "Very good! Since you all think it's feasible, then do it like this! At that time, the army first hopes Wujun retreat."
"Lord, no! You can't retreat to Wu County. Liu Bei must know that the lord started his career in Wu County and has been in Wu County for many years, so it is difficult to capture it! Therefore, if you retreat here, you may not be able to lure Liu Bei's army." Zhou Yu advised.
"Where did Gongjin think we should retreat?" Sun Ce frowned.
"Go to Moling City. Although this city has been in disrepair for a long time, its foundation is still there. After a simple repair, you can come to Liu Bei as a bait! At that time, the lord will use all the soldiers around him to annihilate the Liu Bei army crossing the river in one fell swoop!" Zhang Zhao said.
"Okay! Then retreat to Moling City. Zibu, you take Ling Tong and his son, and set off now! Go to the Moling City to arrange some things, and my army will retreat here tomorrow!" Sun Ce ordered immediately. After hearing this, Zhang Zhao took the order and left. After seeing him leave, Sun Ce continued to say to Zhou Yu: "Gongjin, you will take the navy army to Moling City tomorrow. When you get there, settle down first, wait for Liu Bei's army to come out together, and then avenge today's revenge!"
Zhou Yu nodded and said, "It depends on the orders of the lord! When we fight again, I will let Liu Bei's army know how powerful I am!" Sun Ce saw that Zhou Yu had fighting spirit again, so he happily encouraged him, and then Zhou Yu withdrew from the tent and went to the navy camp. Seeing Zhou Yu leave, Sun Ce asked Zhou Tai beside him, "Youping, do you think I can beat Liu Bei?" Zhou Tai glared at him, "Don't worry, lord, when Liu Bei comes, I will twist his head and put it in front of you!" "Hahahaha! OK! I have a powerful general like Youping, and Liu Bei is not worth mentioning! "
