Chapter 2077: Don’t be alarmed because it’s so basic, it’s hard to tell the truth from the false(2/2)
The Jiangdong scouts who had already landed on the shore immediately hid in the shadows, while the Jiangdong people who were still swimming in the river took a long breath and dived into the water.
One side, disguised as a corpse, half in the water and half on the shore...
Cao Jun and his entourage wandered over. Several Cao soldiers held torches to shine on both sides of the bank and the water. However, because the light of the torches was close enough, once they were two meters away, the light concentration itself was too poor, so they could not shine.
No matter how far it was, he seemed to see nothing while wandering around, and he staggered away after a while.
When Cao Jun completely disappeared into the night, these Jiangdong scouts emerged from the shadows again...
"What a risk, what a risk..."
"Move faster!"
"vomit……"
"What are you doing?"
"Hoo, ho, it's okay, it's okay..."
………(⊙_⊙;)…………
As dawn approached, everything seemed to be immersed in sleep. In the mist, some twisted figures were revealed. It was these Jiangdong scouts who had crossed the Dangyang River.
According to the last detection information, these Jiangdong scouts silently spread out a skirmish line and cautiously groped forward...
Unknowingly, a vague outline of a camp appeared in the distance, and some faint sounds followed the wind.
Jiangdong's scouts couldn't help but tighten their bodies, lowered their steps, and got closer, and then closer...
The camp occupies a large area and extends in all directions. At first glance, you can tell that it is a typical cavalry camp. On top of the tall sentry tower, there are several figures swaying, and most of the people in the camp are resting.
Jiangdong Scout's eyes moved...
"this!"
"It's the tricolor flag!"
Even though Scout Jiangdong was prepared in his mind, he was still sluggish for a moment, and his mind went blank. Cao Cao and Fei Qian have joined forces? Are they going to deal with Jiangdong together?
This was like a bolt from the blue, shaking the hearts of all Jiangdong scouts.
"Click..."
"What's the sound?! There's someone there!"
I don't know if it was because of a momentary loss of concentration or for some other reason. The Jiangdong scout was discovered. He ignited the arrows on the sentry tower and then shot them high. He did not seek to kill, but just pointed out the direction. The tricolor flag camp.
The crowd inside became noisy, the figures swayed, and soon there was the sound of war horses neighing!
"It's broken! Let's go separately!" Jiangdong's scout shouted in a deep voice, "Be sure to report the situation here to the governor!" He then split up and fled.
Not long after, Cao Xiu led his troops to the location indicated by Rocket and issued the order, "Search!"
"General! It looks like he escaped..."
"Which side has more traces?" Cao Xiu asked in a deep voice, his eyes flashing in the firelight.
"there!"
Cao Xiu turned the horse's head and said, "Follow me!"
"General, what else..."
"Let's go!" Cao Xiu shouted, "Follow me!"
……(*–-)……
Jiangdong Daying.
The Jiangdong scouts, who had lost most of their lives, fled back to the camp and reported everything they saw and heard to Zhou Yu.
"Only the tricolor flag?" Zhou Yu frowned, "Didn't you see the general flag?"
"It's possible that he deliberately concealed it..." Cheng Pu said slowly.
Zhou Yu nodded slightly.
"Although this matter is strange..." Zhou Yu still frowned, and the frown became deeper and deeper, "Although Fei and Cao occupy the west and east, they are incompatible... But... I heard that both Fei and Cao are disciples of Cai Zhonglang... If...
…』
Zhou Yu did not say any more.
Cheng Pu also looked ugly. After all, it was already very difficult to fight against Cao Jun, plus Fei Qian's hussars...
Although there are many water networks in the Jiangling area, cavalry is not completely inaccessible. If the hussars join the battlefield, the original mobility advantages of the Jiangdong soldiers will be gone, and they may even be taken back by the hussars.
The risk of food shortages.
Everyone knows that the hussars seem to be special and quite sharp in long-distance attacks.
Zhou Yu is very hesitant. After all, he doesn't know whether Cao Cao and Fei Qian are united in the same place. If Cao Cao gives up Jingzhou or part of it to Fei Qian, and then finds a balance from Jiangdong, it is not impossible.
There are copper mines in Jiangxia, which are also fertile, and there is also the Lujiang River, or even further. Yangzhou in the east of the Yangtze River has been away from the battlefield for many years, and it is natural to be rich...
Therefore, although the possibility of Fei Cao and Fei Cao joining forces is relatively small, it cannot be said that it is completely impossible.
During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, there were many people who were brothers today and enemies tomorrow, and there were also many people who were vice versa.
What about benefits? If given enough, Jiangdong can also join forces...
So, should we withdraw our troops?
If you really want to bet until the moment when your trump card is revealed, of course you can see the outcome, but if you really want to risk heavy losses or even annihilation of the entire army, bet that Cao Cao is stealing the chicken...
