However, after a simple rough calculation, the number of soldiers and horses killed in the second army this time was about 3,000, of which more than 200 sergeants were wounded by cold arrows.Only a dozen or so people were seriously injured, and among these people, there were no injuries on their bodies, but they were caused by inhaling too much dust and smoke.After getting rid of the Wu army, Xu Shu, in order to guard against other accidents, immediately ordered the army to start on the road immediately and rushed to the station where Chen Gong was located.Only after arriving there to meet Chen Gong can everyone relax their minds, and the station where Chen Gong is located is easy to defend and difficult to attack, with a natural barrier, so there is no need to worry about the attack of the Wu army at all.After a day's journey, everyone finally arrived at the camp at the junction of the two counties, and when they heard that everyone was coming, Chen Gong personally led the soldiers out of the village to greet them.Although Chen Gong had not experienced these two wars, from the feeling and the way the army came, Chen Gong knew that these two wars were definitely not easy.Everyone can be said to have fought hard and escaped from death, so Chen Gong personally greeted him, which was also a kind of respect for everyone.Especially when Chen Gong saw that Xu Shu was safe and sound, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in his heart, this time the army came to attack the Wu army, but he didn't expect to confront Zhou Yu of Wu State.Although Chen Gong is more confident in his intelligence, but in the face of that Zhou Yu, Chen Gong does not dare to hold it up, after all, Zhou Yu's reputation and intelligence are by no means comparable to ordinary people.What's more, in addition to Zhou Yu this time, there is also a Lu Su.Although Lu Su's fame is much smaller than that of Zhou Yu, this person cannot be underestimated, Lu Su is also a person with great wisdom, otherwise, Lu Su will definitely not be able to sit in this position.After everyone arrived, Chen Gong sat down and began to gather all the military councils, the first thing was to find out how many soldiers and horses were sacrificed in the ambush of the Wu army when the army retreated.After Xu Shu and Xu Huang's soldiers and horses converged this time, there were 40,000 soldiers, plus 5,000 brought by Zang Ba, and when the army retreated, the 5,000 soldiers and horses of Zang Ai and Zang Shun who came to the rescue were a total of 50,000 soldiers and horses.However, when the army returned to the camp for a thorough investigation, it was found that three hundred and fifty sergeants had been wounded this time, of which twenty were seriously wounded, and the rest were all lightly wounded.The wounded were either wounded by cold arrows or burned by fire, and of the twenty seriously wounded, many of them were suffering from some illness caused by inhaling a certain amount of smoke.In addition, this time the army withdrew, and in the first battle of the Nawu army, a total of more than 4,000 soldiers and horses were sacrificed.Compared with the annihilation of the entire army, this number is too small for the soldiers of the Wu army.However, compared to the Zhao army, an ambush caused the B army to lose more than 4,000 soldiers and horses in vain, which was really too great a sacrifice.Don't look at the many losses of the Zhao army this time, but relatively speaking, this is already the least guarantee for the Zhao army.If it weren't for the hard training of the soldiers on weekdays, especially the strict military discipline, I am afraid that the losses this time would have more than doubled.You must know that in that kind of small space, with a large fire and cold arrows from the archers on the periphery, many times the most likely to cause casualties to soldiers is not the fire and bow and arrow, but the trampling caused by panic and fear.This kind of case has not appeared in some ancient battlefields, and it can be said that it happens from time to time.Especially in the face of a strong enemy army, when the officers and men of Army B begin to retreat, this kind of panic is most likely to occur, and once it appears, it is impossible to stop it at all.After all, at that time, it was really a bit wishful thinking to stabilize the entire army with the power of one person.And just after Xu Shu's army left, the men and horses of the Wu army began to come to clean up the battlefield, after all, there were many trophies left by the enemy army on the battlefield.These things can be used as soldiers of the B army, and when the men and horses of the Wu army found a total of more than 4,000 corpses of the Zhao army when they counted the battlefield, they reported the information, which immediately caused the Wu army to be surprised.You must know that Zhou Yu, the governor of the Wu army this time, was secretly very confident in his heart when he arranged this plan, and he wanted to bury 10,000 corpses of Zhao Jun.Even if the Zhao army's Zang Ai and Zang Shun came to the aid in a hurry, so that Zhou Tai and Ding Feng could not succeed in intercepting it, it should not only have 4,000 corpses.Later, Zhou Yu called a few sergeants, and after hearing his description of the current situation on the battlefield, Zhou Yu couldn't help but sigh secretly: "Zhao is worthy of developing from a small prince in a corner of a country to this world-famous big country. ”Before Zhou Yu was arranging this ambush, plus the plan of fire attack, the Wu army was also controversial.It can be said that almost all the generals at that time believed that Zhao Shi Xu Shu would definitely lead the army from the forked road.Just because although the Zhao army was defeated, there were still many soldiers and horses, and if you take a small road, although the distance is short, it will delay the speed of the march.And if you take the main road, the whole army can always march at full speed, and the condition of the main road is clear at a glance, which is very advantageous for the march of the large army.Therefore, the generals suggested that Zhou Yu, the governor of the capital, lead the soldiers and horses to ambush on the main road, but no matter how everyone lobbied, Zhou Yu was determined to set up an ambush on the path, and it was a heavy ambush.Later, Lu Su proposed to divide the troops into two groups, one group to ambush on the main road and one group to ambush on the small road.In this way, no matter which road the Zhao army walks, they will be ambushed by the B army, and this proposal of Lu Su can be said to be a very compromise method, and it is also the safest and most conservative method.But in the face of Lu Su's proposal, Zhou Yu still smiled slightly, shook his head and rejected the proposal.As far as Zhou Yu's words are concerned: "This time, the governor of Pontus has concluded that the army of the Zhao army will definitely move forward from the path, why should our army divide half of its troops to ambush the main road?
When the time comes, as soon as the soldiers and horses of the Zhao army appear, the two forces will attack at the same time and kill the Zhao army, wouldn't it be more effective" Because of the controversy over this point, those generals of the Wu army can be said to have a great conflict with Zhou Yu, and they are not all the soldiers and do not believe in Zhou Yu's strategy.On the contrary, for Zhou Yu's strategy, everyone can be said to have obeyed his words, and there has never been any doubt or doubt.And the reason why everyone didn't believe it this time was not because of Zhou Yu's strategy, but because everyone didn't believe that Zhao Jun would give up the big road and walk on the small road.Seeing that the two sides are deadlocked, and the Zhao army's men and horses have begun to set off, if they are delayed, I am afraid that they will miss the best ambush strategy.For a while, the veteran Cheng Pu was anxious, slapped the table in public, pointed at Zhou Yu and said: "Zhou Yu, on weekdays, I Cheng Pu respects your talent and believes in your intelligence, but this is a good opportunity for my army to get rid of that Xu Shu."
This time, Xu Shu, the military advisor of the Zhao army, ventured into my Jiangxia County, without any reinforcements around, it can be described as a trapped beast.If this great opportunity we miss this time, there will be no such opportunity, although you are the governor of the capital, for my army to give advice, Cheng Pu is ashamed of not as good as you. ”"But I, Cheng Pu, have been leading the troops to fight all the year round, so I naturally know the march of the army, so Cheng Pu still suggested that our army ambush the troops this time and design them on the road.Therefore, if you and I don't make a bet this time, the governor will lead an army of soldiers and horses to ambush on the path.And I, Cheng Pu, led another army and ambushed on the main road.If anyone guesses correctly and successfully hunts the Zhao army, then in the future, the other person will obey his dispatch and must not have any complaints, I don't know what the Metropolitan Governor thinks" Although this time it was to intercept the ambush battle of the Zhao Army, everyone present heard that Cheng Pu, a veteran of the army, wanted to make a bet with the Metropolitan Governor Zhou Yu.All of a sudden, the atmosphere was strong, and they began to bet on whether Zhou Yu won and Cheng Pu lost, or Zhou Yu lost and Cheng Pu won.As one of the parties concerned, Zhou Yu, after hearing Cheng Pu's proposal, saw the curiosity of the soldiers around him, and I couldn't help but smile slightly, and didn't care at all: "Okay, since General Cheng Pu has such a Yaxing, how can Zhou Yu not accompany him."
This time, Zhou Yu had the courage to gamble with General Cheng Pu, betting that the Zhao army would pass by the path, and if Zhou Yu lost, Zhou Yu would give up the position of the governor of Wu. ”As soon as Zhou Yu's voice fell, the surrounding soldiers were suddenly shocked, and everyone didn't expect it.Zhou Yu actually took out his position as the governor of Wu State and came to make a bet, which can be said to be a little too big.And just when everyone was surprised, Cheng Pu was just stunned, and then a trace of excitement appeared on his face, and he immediately pointed at Zhou Yu with a big hand and said: "Okay, this is what you said, and it is definitely not that I Cheng Pu forced you to block it." ”After speaking, I saw Cheng Pu take a deep breath and said: "If this time Zhao Jun did not take the big road, but took the small road, then I, Cheng Pu, lost."
At that time, Cheng Pu originally handed over all the soldiers and horses under his command to the governor to lead, and Cheng Pu was only a general in front of the governor's side and was under the command of the governor. ”As soon as Cheng Pu's voice fell, the scene was in an uproar again, and everyone didn't expect it.Cheng Pu's words this time can be described as very bold, you must know that Cheng Pu is a general of Wu State, and he has at least 10,000 soldiers and horses under his command.Cheng Pu can do his current position, it can be said that how many people can't work hard, in order to bet, Cheng Pu is willing to say that once he loses, he will give up his position, which is quite bold enough.For a while, the atmosphere at the scene was particularly tense, and everyone was nervous about Zhou Yu and Cheng Pu's bets.But looking at the two parties again, it seemed that there was nothing at all, and even Lu Su on the side wanted to open his mouth to dissuade him, but he didn't expect these two people to be so anxious this time.Every word you say to me, I didn't have the time to interject a sentence, just as I was about to speak, the bet between the two had been concluded, and Lu Su had to smile bitterly in his heart
