Chapter 3334 I thought(2/2)
While the competition for Jiangling City was unfolding, Cao's army also cooperated with the attack on the Jiangdong Army camp and water camp outside Jiangling City.
Especially the fight for the flanks of the Jiangdong Army was almost suppressed and beaten by Cao's army.
On the flanks of the army, they are often mainly cavalry or rapidly transferred troops, and the cavalry of the Jiangdong Army is a joke in front of the cavalry of the Cao army. Although the cavalry of the Jiangdong Army is basically the direct troops of the generals to be qualified to ride war horses, even such relatively elite Jiangdong soldiers, they have a frontal impact combined with the scattered Jiangdong infantry squads and constantly attacked the cavalry units of the Cao army from both wings. However, the cavalry of the Cao army did not know who they learned, and launched a line of troops similar to the Hu people, making the front of the entire cavalry line very wide, and then rotated and stormed.
The cavalry guards of the two wings of the Jiangdong Army need to protect their flank safety, so they cannot avoid fighting head-on with the Cao cavalry. However, the cavalry and tactics of these guys in Jiangdong could not resist the Cao cavalry, and were soon beaten by the Cao cavalry. The guards of the two wings of the Jiangdong were quickly severely damaged and completely lost the ability to protect the flanks of the army.
Cao Ren soon discovered the weakness exposed by the Jiangdong Army, and immediately began to invade the flanks of the Jiangdong Army with his soldiers, trying to cut off the connection between the Jiangdong Army's city and the water camp, divide and surround the Jiangdong Army, and acted as if he wanted to completely swallow these Jiangdong Army.
Jiangdong General Zhu Zhi is now in a panic.
This general who thought he had a plan to seize Jiangling, plundered Jingxiang Nanjun, and replenished his own pockets, has now been knocked out. The battles on land are completely different from those on the surface!
The current surface combat in the Han Dynasty is actually basically a line. Because most of them are fighting in rivers, the ship's disposable combat is similar to linear and single-process, but the combat on land is not like this, with a wide contact area. Especially when encountering a land combat veteran like Cao Ren, he would get out of control and catch Zhu Zhi off guard.
Zhu Zhi originally thought he had enough time and reason to move, but he never expected that Lu Xun and Jiang Qin would temporarily repel the Sichuan and Shu navy!
This led to the reason for withdrawal that Zhu Zhi had prepared to withdraw immediately...
Before, Zhu Zhi could say that the eldest brother didn’t laugh at the second brother. Everyone was defeated by the Sichuan and Shu army. Now they can’t stand it anymore. Naturally, they just had good brothers together, but they didn’t expect that Lu Xun, a thick-eyed and big-eyed person, actually made such a thing!
Once Zhu Zhi couldn't leave, Cao Ren naturally came.
Zhu Zhi's ability to fight water was still good, but of course the land battle was worse than Cao Ren. Not only Zhu Zhi's personal ability was poor, but the Jiangdong Army's ability to fight land was also worse than Cao's soldiers. Therefore, after Cao Ren launched an attack, he fell into a passive state before he could resist. He was about to cut off the connection between the city and the water camp with a knife...
At this moment, a fleet suddenly appeared on the river surface, and the Jiangdong Army immediately cheered loudly and its morale suddenly rose!
In the fleet, the Zhou flag fluttered high!
Governor Zhou is here!
The soldiers of the Jiangling defenders' water camp seemed to have been injected with stimulants, and immediately suppressed the Cao army's offensive momentum.
Seeing this situation, Cao's army knew that it was impossible to conquer for the time being, and it retreated like a tide.
After the disaster, the Jiangdong soldiers almost cried with joy!
Chapter completed!
