    Chapter 2903: In the Battle of Qin Ming and Ganyu, Jiao Mo went to kill Zhang Guihou (Part 2)


    "Report to the Grand Governor... Report to the Grand Governor, Chang Mao suddenly appeared on the left wing of the enemy and led 300 cavalry to launch a raid on the left wing of our army."


    If it were an ordinary general, he might not care after hearing this news. After all, there were only 300 enemy troops invading, while the Qin army had 8,000 troops on the left wing, but Zhou Yu was obviously not an ordinary general.


    After hearing this news, Zhou Yu first showed a look of surprise, then gritted his teeth and said, "When he was fighting against the west, Zhu Di actually used the tricks used by this supervisor to deal with our army."


    When Zhou Yu led the navy to raid the coast of Jianghuai, the most common strategy was to attack the east and west. This trick was tried and tested against Zhu Di. He made him very embarrassed every time, and even though he knew it was a plan, he had to be careful.


    But what Zhou Yu never expected was that Zhu Di would use the tricks he had used to deal with him, but he was trapped without investigating it for a while.


    "I''m careless, I''m really sorry for the general''s teaching."


    Zhou Yu started to talk to himself with regret. He learned a lot from Bai Qi. In addition to teaching by words and deeds, Bai Qi told him the most that he should not underestimate any opponent.


    Zhou Yu actually never underestimated Zhu Di, but the other party has been defeated by his own hands, and people have been relaxed. With absolute military strength advantages, being cautious in Zhou Yu will inevitably relax his vigilance. With a moment of carelessness, he could not see the big conspiracy hidden under Zhu Di''s small plot.


    At this time, Zhou Yu also felt a sense of urgency. After all, Zhu Di dared to send only 300 cavalry to raid his left wing at this time. In addition to Chang Mao''s ace, the 300 cavalry must not be ordinary cavalry, otherwise even if he came, he would just die.


    "It seems that these three hundred cavalry are overlord cavalry."


    Zhou Yu secretly analyzed that after all, there was only the Overlord Cavalry in the Ming army, which had the combat power of hundreds of people raiding tens of thousands of troops. However, before the war began, he did not see the flag of the Overlord Cavalry, and the armor and weapons of the Ming cavalry were not exclusive equipment of the Overlord Cavalry.


    Obviously, Zhu Di not only showed weakness, but also deliberately took the Tibetan army to catch the Qin army off guard.


    As soon as he thought of this, Zhou Yu''s vigilance reached its peak and he quickly ordered: "Recall Ao Shen and let him lead the 1,000 cavalry of the central army to immediately support the left wing."


    Out of caution, Zhou Yu did not recall the right-wing cavalry. After all, there were not many powerful generals under him. If the right-wing cavalry left, another general appeared in the Ming army to raid the right-wing, and then he would be repeatedly played with by Zhu Di.


    Zhou Yu''s reaction was very fast, and the supplementary measures were also very useful, but in the end he was still one step slower.


    Ao Shen returned to the central army from the right wing and led the cavalry to support the left wing, but before he could even arrive, Li Shunchen was beheaded by Chang Mao.


    Li Shunchen''s rank among the Qin army is not low. He not only holds the rank of major general, but also manages Beihai Port, one of the four major military ports of the Qin army. However, he has now died under Chang Mao''s sword and has become the Qin general with the highest level of death in the Qingxu battlefield.


    Zhou Yu''s eyes went dark after receiving the news. He suppressed the grief in his heart and asked, "General Li Shunchen has an army of eight thousand under his command. How could he die in battle so quickly?"


    Li Shunchen actually died a bit unfairly. He was not a brave general. He knew that Chang Mao was there, so he would not take any risk. But the problem was that he did not know that Chang Mao led the Overlord Cavalry, so he miscalculated the combat effectiveness of the Ming cavalry.


    When Li Shunchen learned that Chang Mao was invading, he knew that there were no powerful generals under his command, so it was difficult for Chang Mao to stay, so he wanted to solve the problem first. When Chang Mao was alone, he would naturally retreat and the crisis would be resolved.


    Therefore, Li Shunchen, who had 8,000 troops under his command, adopted the tactic of luring the enemy into the depths first, then surrounding and annihilation against the invading Chang Mao, and planned to rely on the advantage of the number of people to surround and kill all 300 cavalry in one fell swoop.


    For this reason, Li Shunchen also specially set up a triple-fold serial gun array to minimize the impact of the cavalry.


    Under Li Shunchen''s arrangement, in theory, 80% of the cavalry in the world could not rush through, but the 300 cavalry led by Chang Mao were overlords, which obviously did not belong to the 80% ranks.


    Under Chang Mao''s leadership, the Three Hundred Overlords Cavalry were like a pendant, easily drilling through the Qin army''s defense line.


    The gun array, which originally had a counterproductive effect on the cavalry, was completely silent when facing the Overlord Cavalry.


    Like the Flying Tiger Army and Pojun Camp of the Qin Dynasty, the Overlord Cavalry has also undergone special training. Facing the spear stabbed by the spearmen, they know how to block and avoid, protect the mount, and even easily cut off the spear.


    Even though steel production has increased significantly now, countries have only cast swords and shields with all steel, and even the javelins are all metal, but the spears are still made of steel gun heads and wooden guns.


    Of course, this is not that all countries are reluctant to give up on steel, but that the spears cast by all steel are too bulky and it is difficult for soldiers to pick them up, let alone fight.


    Of course, even the wooden gun body is still very hard, but it is definitely not as good as steel.


    It is precisely because of this that the gun-cutting training is added to the daily training of elite cavalry, because after years of training, the elite cavalry can indeed cut off the wooden gun body by several knifes.


    The spearman''s spear breaks, and he is a toothless tiger, let alone facing the elite of the cavalry?


    Under the impact of the three hundred overlord cavalry led by Chang Mao, even though Li Shunchen did not make any mistakes in command, his defense line was still shattered. Even if he dispatched more than ten times the enemy''s troops, or even a mixed formation of guns and shields, he still could not stop this cavalry that killed people and killed Buddhas.


    After realizing that he could not stop Chang Mao, Li Shunchen sent someone to ask Zhou Yu for help, but he could not leave. Otherwise, if he lost his command, the left wing would only be more chaotic, which gave Chang Mao the opportunity to kill him.


    With the tactic of machining, Chang Mao killed Li Shunchen as he wished, and the left wing of the Qin army was also in chaos, but the level was not as he expected, so he could only lead his army to continue to charge. When he finally made the left wing mess up, Ao Shen led a thousand cavalry to support him.


    When Ao Shen led his army to arrive, the Qin army''s left wing was wailing, with a total casualty of less than 1,500 people, while the casualties of the Overlord Cavalry were less than 100.


    In other words, the Qin army had a total of 8,000 naval troops on the left wing, but not only could not do anything to the 300 Overlord Cavalry, but the number of casualties was fifteen times that of the other party.


    "Is the gap between the navy and infantry after getting ashore is so big?"


    Ao Shen couldn''t help but murmured to himself. He thought that even if the navy''s infantry combat capabilities were far from that of the infantry, they would not be too big. However, he did not expect that he would have no power to fight back against the Overlord Cavalry.


    If this were the 8,000 military commanders of the left wing, the Qin infantry would definitely not have let these 300 overlords rage.


    Of course, if there were eight thousand Qin infantry soldiers, Zhu Di would not dare to send only three hundred cavalry to come.


    "Cabinets attack." With Ao Shen''s order, the chaotic left wing of the Qin army took the initiative to make way for the thousand cavalry who came to support to participate in the war.


    Seeing this, Chang Mao couldn''t help but sneer, not only not preparing to retreat, but also preparing to fight head-on.


    "Overbial cavalry, kill."


    Under Chang Mao''s leadership, two hundred and twenty-eight cavalry took the initiative to fight against the Qianqian cavalry of the Qin Dynasty. The two armies collided directly, while Chang Mao headed straight for Ao Shen, obviously trying to get back on the tactics of beheading Li Shunchen before.


    Ao Shencai was defeated by Zhang Guiba, and his physical strength had not recovered yet. Naturally, he could not be the opponent of Chang Mao, who was stronger than Zhang Guiba, but he was not prepared to fight Chang Mao head-on.


    Li Shunchen would die at Chang Mao because he was too strong and once he was approached, he would not have any strength to fight back.


    Ao Shen is different. Although he is not Chang Mao’s opponent, he still has the ability to avoid him from being close to him.


    So this scene appeared, Chang Mao chased Ao Shen tightly, but Ao Shen did not fight with him. While fighting and retreating, he also commanded the soldiers to constantly interfere with Chang Mao.


    Seeing that Ao Shen did not dare to respond, Chang Mao said violently: "Boy, don''t run away if you are a man, you have the will of fighting with me for 300 rounds."


    Ao Shen said without looking back: "I am not your opponent. If I don''t run away, are you waiting to be killed by you?"


    Seeing Ao Shen so cowardly, Chang Mao didn''t know how to refute it for a while. He saw that he could not do anything to Ao Shen for a while, and the casualties of his cavalry were gradually increasing. For the sake of the overall situation, he was destined to choose to withdraw his troops.


    Seeing this, Ao Shen immediately organized cavalry to pursue, but he did not expect that the other party could still carry out cavalry while retreating, which instead caused considerable losses to the Qin cavalry.


    There are two types of riding and shooting: charge riding and shooting and retreat riding and shooting, and the latter is naturally more difficult than the former.


    Even the Great Qin cavalry did not control the retreating cavalry and shooting, let alone the navy cavalry.


    The combat power of the cavalry of the Great Qin Navy is naturally not as good as that of the army cavalry. If the Overlord Cavalry had not experienced the war and consumed a lot of physical strength, they might not have been able to repel it.


    But even so, the Qin cavalry suffered a lot of casualties, with nearly 200 people killed in the battle just now, while the Overlord Cavalry only injured one hundred people.


    Chang Mao led 300 people to fight, and only 130 people were left after returning, but he killed the Qin army''s left wing chief general and caused nearly 2,000 casualties to the Qin army.


    After Ao Shen''s pursuit failed, he could only stop and stabilize the army. After all, the left wing formation was completely chaotic, and not only could he not attack, but if the Ming army attacked again, there might be a risk of defeat.


    This was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for the Ming army, but Zhu Di could not take the opportunity to expand the results, because the Ming army could only crush the Qin army with five hundred overlord cavalry.


    Although the land combat capability of the Ming army led by Zhu Di was stronger than that of the Qin navy, the total force was only 6,300. On the other hand, Zhou Yu had a total army of 31,000.


    Therefore, Zhu Di was unable to deal with the central and right wings of the Qin army alone and was unable to divide his troops and attack the left wings of the Qin army.


    Zhou Yu thought that under his own command, even without the support of the left-wing army, he could easily defeat Zhu Di with nearly five times the enemy''s strength, but after the war started, he found that he underestimated Zhu Di.


    Although Zhu Di had few troops in his hands, he was small and had all kinds of internal organs, including swords, shields, spears, crossbows, cavalry and other types of troops. With the cooperation of multiple troops, his combat power increased greatly, and his resilience was also extremely strong, blocking the Qin army''s round of attacks. This battle also became a war of attrition, and the Qin army''s casualties were even greater than that of the Ming army.


    Zhou Yu knew that he had miscalculated. He overestimated the navy''s land combat capabilities and should not use the navy as infantry, but now it is difficult to get rid of the tiger, so he must take Zhu Di first.


    Seeing that the Ming army was still tenacious and feeling distressed by the casualties, Zhou Yu quickly asked to his left and right: "What are Ao Shen doing? Why haven''t the left-wing army attacked yet?"


    "The cavalry commander-in-chief, the left wing was raided by the Ming army, with heavy casualties and the formation was in chaos. It needed some rectification to go to the battle."


    Zhou Yu couldn''t help frowning when he heard this. He naturally knew that once the army fell into chaos, it was not so easy to reorganize, but he still ordered: "Let Ao Shen reorganize the army quickly and try to fight as soon as possible."


    "No."


    Shortly after the order was conveyed, Zhou Yu received another bad news, and Chang Mao once again led three hundred overlords to raid the left wing.


    This time, with Ao Shen and the cavalry in charge, the Qin army''s left wing was not very casualties, but the formation was disrupted. Although Ao Shen repelled Chang Mao again, the time of the battle was delayed again.


    Obviously, Zhu Di knew that he could not stop the Qin army from attacking on the entire line, so he deliberately let Chang Mao mess up the situation, thus avoiding the whole Qin army.


    "Grandmaster, why don''t you transfer 10,000 troops to join the war?" Cai Mao said.


    "It''s useless. In this situation, there is not much difference between 40,000 and 50,000. If you can''t win for 40,000, then 50,000 is the same."


    Zhou Yu first shook his head, then calmly analyzed: "Zhu Di did not hesitate to commit suicide, so there must be a backup plan. The coalition navy may come here at any time.


    If another 10,000 naval forces are transferred to the ashore, once the coalition naval forces come, our army may not be able to stop them, and thus fall into a situation where they cannot advance or retreat. ”


    As soon as Zhou Yu finished speaking, good news came from the front line.


    Jiao Moxiang, who was besieged by the three generals Chang Yuchun, Zhang Guiba and Zhang Guihou, after fighting with the enemy for 150 rounds, Zhang Guihou, the weakest, was exhausted and finally revealed his flaws.


    Jiao Moxian naturally would not miss this good opportunity. Not only did he injured Zhang Guihou, but he also used the method of exchanging injuries for life to kill Zhang Guihou, which collapsed the stalemate of three against one in one fell swoop.
