Chapter 3423 Advance and retreat(2/2)

Of course, most of these "believers" should be shallow believers, or even transactional beliefs, but they do not hinder the development of the five-way God Church in Jiangdong, all the Han, and even in the foreign domains.

As it develops a lot, some unexpected effects will occur sometimes.

Some Jiangdong people knew that their five-way God Cult was spread from Guanzhong and from the Cavalry, so they wanted to fight the Cavalry Army, and they felt a little bit confused. This emotion was generally not too obvious, but in the current situation that they could not understand, it erupted.

The most critical point is of course the means of fooling the people in Jiangdong. Although Jiangdong did not deliberately make the soldiers of the people stupid, the Han Dynasty's conventions have also made many children of the gentry and generals in the military academy like to see the foolishness of the people and soldiers, and even used as a joke after dinner.

Now these generals couldn't laugh. When they shouted to put out the fire and stop the turmeric oil, indicating that those were ordinary fires, some soldiers from Jiangdong were shouting "Demon Fire"...

...

...

Zhuge Liang's calculations were correct, but he also made the calculations incorrectly.

He expected that Zhou Yu would come to attack, but he did not expect that Zhou Yu did not go to the water, but instead used the grass outside the camp to set fire...

If it weren't for the military rules of the Cavalry Army, or Xu Huang's cautious personality at the moment, it would be said that the camp would be burned or destroyed more or less.

After dawn, black smoke filled the fire and the flames burned all the things that could be burned. As they gradually went out, everyone was still scared when they looked at the embers on the wilderness in the distance.

There are losses, but not big.

The soldiers in the camp were sorting out the artifacts.

Zhuge Liang and Xu Huang stood on the platform and looked into the distance.

"It's a mistake." Zhuge Liang sighed, "I couldn't expect this matter... I was negligent!"

Xu Huang waved his hand, "Why do Kong Ming blame himself? There are many reeds on both sides of the river, and they are common every day, and they all think they are ordinary things..."

The weeds on the riverside are relatively lush due to geographical reasons. After all, the silt wrapped in the river water gives these thatch a lot of nutrients. And because these areas on the riverside are similar to swamp wetlands, there are few large herbivores coming to forage, so that these reeds can grow almost unscrupulously.

These things may be a little surprised and strange at the beginning, but they are all the way down the river, so they naturally won’t pay attention to them specifically, and the brain will even subconsciously exclude these things from the project of thinking.

It’s like a sand pile, everyone is commonplace. Who would have thought that a sand pile could kill people?

It's OK under specific conditions.

Everyone knows that sand is not piled high, and once it is piled high, it will inevitably collapse. However, in construction sites, you can often see piles of sand piles. Sometimes they are not piled on open spaces, but for the sake of convenience of management, they are piled up against simple walls outside the construction site. Then, one day it rains, the weight of the sand absorbs water greatly, the wall collapses, and the people who just happened to pass by are buried...

The same is true for Xu Huang and Zhuge Liang to go to camp here.

I originally thought it was convenient to use these thatch here, but I didn’t expect that this thatch could kill people!

If it weren't for digging a trench...

Even half of the trenches that were not too deep were dug, and they could become fire barriers, saving the camp from fire.

『But...』 Zhuge Liang frowned and thought, 『Would you take this opportunity to retreat with a deception?"

"Failed to defeat?"

Xu Huang repeated.

Zhuge Liang nodded.

...

...

Zhou Yu's calculations were correct, but he also made an error.

For Zhou Yu, he was familiar with the geographical environment of the Yangtze River, but he was not familiar with what the ordinary Jiangdong soldiers under his command were thinking.

He sent Jiang Qin to ensure the success rate of sneak attacks, but because the main camp lacked Jiang Qin's connection between the past and the future, some obstacles appeared at critical moments.

Although Zhou Yu almost immediately noticed something was wrong and sent out his own guards to act as commanders and coordinators on the front line, these guards in Zhou Yu's headquarters were separated by a layer and were not so smooth.

The water fence did block most of the oil tanks flowing down from the upper part.

But blocking the can doesn't mean that the turmeric oil is also blocked.

When Zhou Yu ordered to use a denser fishing net to block the tincture oil, some ships outside the water village had been stained with a lot of tincture oil and were ignited.

Fortunately, Zhou Yu immediately ordered to abandon the ship and push the ignited hull out, otherwise the hooked hull would ignite each other...

The tower ship was in the center of the water village and was protected by the outer small boats, so it did not suffer any losses.

However, several battleships on the periphery were lost.

This loss made Zhou Yu very uncomfortable.

Because prevention has been taken and fishing nets and fork hooks are also equipped with outer ships. As long as the soldiers in Jiangdong can warn in time, and then stop the fishing nets and ignite them directly, they will basically not burn the ships, let alone damage these fighting ships meaninglessly.

What opponent did the Jiangdong Army face in the past?

The chariot and the road bully.

Well, it was wrong, it was the South Vietnamese barbarian among the mountains and forests.

The battle with Cao Cao had already revealed some problems. The reason why Zhu Zhi was able to conquer Jiangling was not because of how powerful Zhu Zhi was, but because Cao's army and Jingzhou were all on the northern line at that time!

Cao Ren used the temporary township hero to suppress Zhu Zhi back to Jiangling City. When Cao Ren even transferred some genuine Cao troops back, Zhu Zhi could not hold on and was about to give up...

The Jiangdong naval army is strong, which is indeed true, but once it is on land or when the ship stops, there will be problems...

It's the same as when a cavalry dismounts or stops the horse.

"Calm down... don't be angry..." Zhou Yu closed his eyes and tried his best not to think about how "stupid" these Jiangdong soldiers were, but instead focused their attention on the battle situation in front of him.

Losing some fighting ships is indeed a problem, but the problem is not very big.

There are still quite a lot of boats in Jiangdong, which is barely enough.

Morale has been a little sluggish, but the problem is not big.

At dawn today, Zhou Yu had already ordered the execution of the military academy that was not on duty before, resuming the soldiers who were on duty last night, and also rewarding the soldiers who bravely put out the fire and were honorably injured, successfully reversing the attention of the Jiangdong soldiers...

After dealing with these things, Zhou Yu was extremely tired.

"Go and get the golden elixir." Zhou Yu ordered the guard to say.

The guard was a little hesitant, "Governor... It's better to use less golden elixirs... The Governor might as well go to the land camp and have some rest..."

『Go.』 Zhou Yu said, 『I can't rest now... Jiangdong, I can't retreat... Go and take it, it's okay...』

The guard had no choice but to take the golden elixir and then take the water to let Zhou Yu take it.

The burning sensation in the abdomen gradually spread, and Zhou Yu's face became slightly rosy.

『Report!』 A scout from Jiangdong naval army came to report, 『Governor! Sichuan and Shu army are retreating!』
