Chapter 855 [Fire Fighting]

"That's fine, we in the province are under fierce attack. However, we only brought 10,000 people with us this time, and more than 1,000 died during the day, if we hold the camp tightly, there will be no problem, but if we want to defeat Liu Biao and Yuan Shu, we must mobilize troops and horses to come. Isn't your nephew Zhang Xiu in Hangu Pass? Let him bring his troops over, and leave a few thousand people for Yang Feng to guard Hangu Pass. ”

After hearing this, Zhang Ji shook his head and said: "It's not proper, Yang Fengzhi is very talented, not the material for guarding the pass, Hangu Pass is the first barrier in the west, and now the Luoyang area has fallen into chaos again, I am afraid that the people will also migrate in a big way, not to mention that the Yan army is still eyeing Xiangnan City behind us, in case the Yan army makes trouble behind our backs, then our army will suffer from the enemy......"

"So what do you say you should do?" Fan Chou still believed in Zhang Ji very much, and immediately asked.

"Withdraw the army and return to Hanguguan, after resting, and then come back to fight, when Liu Biao and Yuan Shu fight about the same, we will come back just to clean up the mess." Well, well, just listen to you, we will withdraw our troops overnight. ”

Zhang Ji nodded, summoned a personal seal, handed over the heirloom jade seal to the confiscation, and ordered: "You take the heirloom jade seal to the Chu army camp and hand over the heirloom jade seal to Liu Biao's hands." ”

"No"

When Fan Chou saw the soldier go out, he asked, "Why don't you hand over the jade seal of the country to Yuan Shu?" ”

"Compared with Liu Biao, Yuan Shu is more interested in the jade seal of the country, Liu Biao lost his troops during the day today, I am afraid that he will not try his best to fight for the jade seal of the country...... Yuan Shu is different, this person is very ambitious, and he wants to take the heirloom jade seal for himself, so he will do his best to grab it. ”

"Hehe, I admire you more and more, then let's set up camp now."

……

In the camp of the Song army. Song Hou Yuan is not light, stealing chickens is not a loss of rice, he also completely hates Lin Nan, if he went directly to grab it yesterday, he should have returned to Yuzhou with the jade seal of the country by now.

"This damn Lin Nan is really hateful. How dare you fool me? I'm not done with him."

Yuan Shu poured down a sip of wine, and as soon as he entered his mouth, he spit out the wine, slammed the wine glass on the ground, and scolded loudly: "What kind of wine is this, even horse urine is not as good as ...... Go and bring me the jar of royal wine that you treasure."

At this time, Ji Ling walked in and hurriedly said, "Lord, it's not good." The Liang army was about to withdraw, and the last general saw with his own eyes that there were more than a dozen people in the Liang army guarding a thing and galloping to the Chu army camp. "The jade seal of the country?" Yuan Shu stood up abruptly and said with a cruel smile, "It seems that Zhang Ji and Fan Chou are nothing more than that, and they actually gave away such an important thing?" Pass the order down. Gather a large army and attack the Chu army camp at night"

Ji Lingdao: "No"

……

In the camp of the Chu army. Liu Biao took the heirloom jade seal sent by the soldiers of the Liang Army, took it in his hand and played with it carefully, with a hint of surprise on his face, mixed with a trace of sadness, and said slowly: "After a few years, the imperial power of the Han Dynasty has fallen. As a descendant of the Han royal family, I can't be a state of writing, and I can't set the country with martial arts, so I'm really ashamed of my ancestors and ancestors. It seems that God bless my big man......"

In the big tent, after hearing this, Kuai Liang, Cai Mao, Zhang Yun, and Huang Zu all looked at each other, and secretly thought in their hearts: "The lord and Liu Bei have only been in contact for less than a few months, but I didn't expect to be so affected by Liu Bei's house, and they actually took the revival of the Han foundation as their own responsibility...... Liu Bei's stay is really a threat......"

Liu Biao put down the jade seal of the country, and said to the Liangjun soldier with kind eyebrows: "You go back and tell Zhang Ji and Fan Chou, and let them tell Lianghou Ma Teng, please send the Son of Heaven to Xiangyang as soon as possible, otherwise, I will definitely issue a document on the crusade against Ma Teng, and unite the heroes of the world to welcome the Son of Heaven to the old capital......"

After hearing this, Kuai Liang immediately stood up and arched his hand: "Lord, you can't ask for this heirloom jade seal, please let this person bring it back, and our army should also withdraw as soon as possible." ”

After hearing this, Cai Mao, Zhang Yun, and Huang Zu were all puzzled, and said in unison: "Military advisor, this is the heirloom jade seal......

Kuai Liang raised his eyebrows angrily, and said loudly: "I know, this is an ominous thing, and it will only bring disaster to our army......"

"Why did the military advisor say this? This jade seal is a symbol of the imperial power of the Han Dynasty, with this jade seal, you can have the world, such as today the son was played by Ma Teng and his son in applause, I am a descendant of the Han family, but I can not save the Son of Heaven, I am really ashamed of the world...... Today, this heirloom jade seal has been transferred to my hands, which means that I am a great Han ......," Liu Biao speculated.

Kuai Liang hurriedly said: "Lord, please listen to the next sentence of persuasion from your subordinates, this jade seal of the country cannot be wanted."

Liu Biao ignored it and let the Liang Army soldier be sent away.

Cai Mao, Zhang Yun, and Huang Zu all felt that Kuai Liang was too strict, the importance of this jade seal, who doesn't know, how can you put the duck in your hand and not want it?

"If the lord insists on this, then ask the lord to withdraw his troops back to Jingzhou overnight, otherwise, once the news reaches Yuan Shu's ears, Yuan Shu, who is a wolf, will definitely send troops to attack our army, and he will not be able to leave when he wants to." Kuai Liang gave advice......

"Strategist, why bother in a hurry, our army camp is strong, even if the Song army comes to attack with all its might, it will only lose the soldiers, not to mention that the soldiers are already exhausted during the day, if you don't have a good night's rest, I'm afraid it will cause the sergeants to complain." Cai Mao said.

After hearing this, Liu Biao nodded again and again, and said, "Yes, let's rest for the time being, and return to Jingzhou tomorrow." ”

"Lord ......" Wang Wei strode in, hugged his fists and said, "Qi Lord, the general of the Song Army, Ji Ling, led the generals Le Zuo and Liang Gang to attack the front camp of our army with all their might, and the sudden attack, the soldiers of the front battalion could not resist, and now the enemy army has entered the camp, and the troops of the left and right battalions are rushing to help, but they were intercepted by the Song army's generals Lei Bo and Lei Xu, and they were unable to support here for a while......"

"I knew that...... I knew it...... This heirloom jade seal is a scourge...... Lord, Yuan Shu has many generals and is well-equipped, our army lost thousands of soldiers and horses during the day, and now it is exhausted, it is not suitable to fight again, it is better to throw the jade seal of the country to Yuan Shu, Zhang Ji and Fan Chou will pass on the jade seal of the country to my army, this is to see our army and Yuan Shu fight. They are good at profiting from it, and now they should plan and give the jade seal of the country to Yuan Shu, let Zhang Ji, Fan Chou and Yuan Shu fight, and our army will retreat overnight and return to Jingzhou. Concentrate on development, even if you don't have the jade seal of the country, you can still welcome back the Son of Heaven......" Kuai Liang said immediately.

"Hmph"

Huang Zu snorted coldly, stared at Kuai Liang with two big eyes, and said angrily: "The military advisor is too timid, right? It's just Ji Ling, watch me go and get his head. The lord sits in the middle camp, Cai Mao, Zhang Yun, and Wang Wei protect, and I will go to meet Ji Ling. He will cut off the head of his dog and present it to the lord."

Liu Mingbai said that there was a general Gan Ning under Huang Zu's account, so he nodded and said, "I'm waiting for your good news here, Cai Mao, Zhang Yun, Wang Wei, you will also fight, follow Huang Zu." You must resist Ji Ling's attack, and you must not let the Song army kill here. ”

"No"

Kuai Liang shook his head helplessly. He was extremely worried in his heart, and secretly thought: "A jade seal of the country has caused two great melee battles among the princes, it seems that this has been planned a long time ago, and the Yan army left here early in the morning, it should be Lin Nan's doing." The strength of the Yan army is amazing, but I am afraid of this trip to the Central Plains...... Alas"

At night, the horses neighed and the voices of the people were boiling. On the ruins of Luoyang, the Song army and the Chu army were fighting fiercely. Arrows flew and the sound of killing resounded in the night sky.

In the camp of the Liang army in the northwest, Zhang Ji and Fan Chou quietly led the troops out of the ruins of Luoyang and headed towards Hangu Pass.

On a cold night, dark clouds covered the moon, Zhang Ji was in front, Fan Chou was behind, and the two of them led more than 8,000 cavalrymen with the rank of knights, horses wrapped their feet, and walked west along the official road.

In order to convince Zhang Ji, Fan Chou, Liu Biao, and Yuan Shu that they had completely withdrawn their troops, Huang Zhong, Zhao Yun, and Wen Chou all traveled thirty miles in accordance with Lin Nan's instructions, and then quietly turned back, and stationed themselves in the place away from the ruins of Luoyang, hiding on both sides of the official road.

Looking at the dark road in the distance, Lin Nan's heart couldn't be calmed for a long time, the scout had just come to report, Zhang Ji and Fan Chou led the army back, and Liu Biao and Yuan Shu were very happy.

"Lord, the soldiers and horses of the Liang army will arrive in a while, please watch the battle in the rear army." Wen Chou walked over and said with his fists clenched.

Lin Nandao: "Wen Chou, this Zhang Ji and Fan Chou are actually not stupid, they actually threw out the jade seal in their hands, which is really beyond my imagination." This time they came back with eight thousand cavalry, and the pressure on you was great. ”

"The lord can rest assured, although these 5,000 heavily armored soldiers are only infantry, their subordinates have made arrangements to ensure that the 8,000 cavalry will not return." Wen Chou is full of confidence.

Lin Nan nodded, did not speak again, but turned to leave, handing over the matter of the war to Wen Chou. He knew that Wen Chou was very good at dealing with Zhang Ji and Fan Chou, blocking outside Hangu Pass, and he was stunned that he didn't let Zhang Ji and Fan Chou pass through Guò, and now he was given 5,000 heavy infantry, well-equipped and elite soldiers, if he couldn't eat Zhang Ji and Fan Chou's 8,000 cavalry, then he Wen Chou was not worthy of being a general. When Wen Chou saw that Lin Nan was gone, he asked, "Is the lord going back to Xiangnan City?" ”

Lin Nan stopped, turned around, and said to Wen Chou: "General Wen, please leave it to you as soon as you submit to me, this is your first battle after submitting to me, don't insult your reputation, I am waiting for you to triumph in Xiangnan City." ”

When Wen Chou heard Lin Nan's serious words, he hugged his fists and said: "Don't worry, my lord, I will definitely not insult the reputation of our army, let alone the reputation of my lord, Zhang Ji and Fan Chou will teach them to come and go." ”

"Hmm......" Lin Nan turned around and left.

Guan Hai and Zhou Cang escorted Lin Nan and quickly left here and disappeared into the night.

Wen Chou and his subordinates hid on both sides of the official road, just waiting for the arrival of Zhang Ji and Fan Chou.

Zhang Ji and Fan Chou were jogging on the official road with their subordinates, and after staying away from the melee between the Chu army and the Song army, they sped up.

Less than seven miles forward, dozens of sentry riders who rushed in front of Zhang Ji suddenly turned on their backs, and a large hole collapsed in the ground, and the hole was full of pointed wooden stakes erected, and anyone who fell down was killed by the stakes.

Zhang Ji hurriedly reined in the horses, let his subordinates stop, and saw the big hole in the earth that was close to him, and his heart panicked.

At this moment, countless arrows flew over on both sides of the official road, shooting towards the dense cavalry group on the official road, and the cavalry fell off their horses one after another. "There is an ambush! The whole army dismounted...... "It's not that Zhang Ji was a little slow to react, but that this sudden change caught him off guard, and he didn't have time to shout at all."

"Kill, ......" A neat group of hoplites slaughtered from both sides of the official road, holding steel knives in their hands and shields in front of them. Wearing thick battle armor, he rushed towards the cavalry of the Liang Army in the middle of the official road.

At the same time, Wen Chou single-handedly took the lead and killed on the high slope on the left side of the official road, with a gloomy face, his eyes staring directly at Zhang Ji, who was in command of the front army. didn't answer, leaned over the horse, and went straight to Zhang Ji.

The 3,000 soldiers of the Yan army were scattered on both sides of the official road, 2,000 people blocked the retreat of the Liang army, and 5,000 people blocked the 8,000 cavalry on the official road that was not too wide, and lined up into a long human dragon.

"Don't panic......" Zhang Ji held a long sword in his hand, rode on horseback, and wore a cooked copper helmet on his head, and on the helmet was a red helmet cherry. It is very conspicuous in the dark night.

"Zhang Ji!"

Wen Chou used his spear to kill the soldiers in front of him one after another, and when he arrived at Zhang Ji's side, his body suddenly stood upright and rode on horseback, and with a shot in his hand, he stabbed Zhang Ji in the throat.

Zhang Ji was caught off guard, and the long sword was blocked, who knew that the spear suddenly changed its move halfway, and the head of the spear sank downward. The sharp spear head pierced his heart directly through the iron armor. Killed on the spot and fell from his horse.

Although the soldiers of the Liang Army have experienced a hundred battles, they have never fought with the Yan Army, and they don't know the strength of the heavy infantry of the Yan Army. When the arrow couldn't shoot through, everyone's face showed a trace of horror, the horror of Yan Jun. Fan Chou was fighting in the rear army at this time, leading his subordinates to meet the Yan soldiers who were attacking from the left, right, and rear, just like all the others. Iron weapons could not pierce steel armor at all, so they had to be slaughtered.

This is a battle without suspense, this battle, deeply let the soldiers of the Yan Army understand, why their lord always says that science and technology is the primary productive force, the whole body is covered with steel armor, and the soldiers armed to the teeth are unscrupulously rampage, squeezing all the cavalry of the Liang Army together, making the space of these cavalry smaller and smaller, and finally there is no room for even slashing with their hands.

It was the first time Fan Chou had encountered such a thing, his spear head was broken, and he was replaced with a saber to slash, but there was a gap in the blade, and finally he was surrounded by a group of soldiers and hacked to death on horseback.

"Those who surrender are not to die!" Wen Chou shouted loudly while killing the enemy soldiers at will.

After Zhang Ji and Fan Chou died in battle, their cavalry lost their fighting spirit, and they were surrounded by 5,000 heavy infantry and forced to surrender.

Wen Chou had the heads of Zhang Ji and Fan Chou cut off, and confiscated the weapons and horses of the surrendered troops, and sent 2,000 people to escort about 9,000 surrendered troops back to Xiangnan City to return to Lin Nan.

……

In the ruins of Luoyang, the Chu army and the Song army were in full swing, and Ji Ling took the lead, taking Le Jie and Liang Gang back and forth in the camp of the Chu army, as if entering a no-man's land.

The Chu army lost the front camp and held the Chinese army barracks, Huang Zu led Cai Mao, Zhang Yun, and Wang Wei to the front of the Chinese army barracks, and arranged a strong bow and crossbow, but everyone who was close to the camp was shot and killed, which effectively blocked the offensive of the Song army for a while, and the Chinese army was dead in front of the barracks.

Ji Ling's attack was blocked, and he temporarily stopped the attack, but waited for Lei Bo and Lei Xu to conquer the left and right battalions of the Chu army.

The left and right battalions of the Chu army were commanded by Cai Zhong and Cai He respectively, and the two of them struggled to resist the offensive of Lei Bo and Lei Xu, but in the end, they were defeated and killed due to being outnumbered.

After Lei Bo and Lei Xu occupied the left and right battalions, they quickly sent a signal to Ji Ling, and then joined Ji Ling to attack the only remaining Chinese army camp of the Chu army.

Ji Ling immediately commanded the soldiers to attack and launched a new round of offensive.

Yuan Shu stood on the watchtower of the Song army camp, looking at the Chu army camp that was about to be broken by him, and his heart was full of joy.

Yan Xiang stood by Yuan Shu's side, and after seeing this scene, he hurriedly said to Yuan Shu: "For many years, Liu Biao has been against the lord, if Liu Biao can't be captured and killed tonight, it will inevitably become a hidden danger to our army in the future." As long as Liu Biao dies, Jingzhou will be leaderless, then our army can take the opportunity to seize Jingzhou, and then gather all the forces to attack Jiangdong Sun Jian, and the lord can succeed! ”

After hearing this, Yuan Shu said happily: "If I am the emperor, the world can be unified, the foundation of the Han family for a hundred years has long been gone, and my Yuan family is the fourth generation and the third duke, just when it is the 'king of the world'." ”

Yan Xiang hurriedly said: "The lord can be the king first, and after conquering Jingzhou, Yangzhou and other places, he will be called the emperor, and the rest of the princes will inevitably come to join him." ”

"Hahaha...... World. After all, it is going to be replaced by my Yuan family, Yuan Benchu, Lu Fengxian, Cao Apu, Lin Ziyu, Sun Wentai, Ma Shoucheng, Liu Jiyu, Liu Jingsheng and others are not enough to compare with me, Lu Fengxian and Yuan Benchu are dead, Liu Jingsheng is dead again, and the rest of the people are not worth mentioning. Pass the order down. Let Ji Ling continue to attack, and don't let go of a single soldier of the Chu army. Yuan Shulang laughed.

"No!"

The battle continued, and Ji Ling, Le Zhuo, Liang Gang, Lei Bo, Lei Xu and others respectively commanded the soldiers to go into battle to kill the enemy and stormed the Chu army camp.

In peacetime, the two armies fought each other a little tired, Huang Zu, Cai Mao, Zhang Yun, and Wang Wei held the Chinese army camp, and the remaining more than 7,000 Chu soldiers were all guarding the camp, and outside the camp, arrows fell all over the ground. The corpses were piled up, and the blood flowed into a river, staining the loess around the camp into a bloody color, and the smell of blood was everywhere.

As the sun rose, the two armies ceased fighting and took a short break.

In the Chu army camp, Liu Biao was holding the heirloom jade seal in his arms, and his eyes were red. Hearing that it was much calmer outside, he glanced at Kuai Liang, who had also not slept all night. asked: "Strategist, it seems that I was really wrong, I didn't expect that this jade seal would bring such a big disaster to our army, Yuan Shu's almost crazy competition, so that our army is constantly lost, is our army going to die here?" ”

Kuai Liang said: "Don't worry, lord. The Song army also suffered heavy casualties, and under the tight barracks, the Song army could not get close to the barracks, and stopped attacking at this time, presumably exhausted. Huang Zu's tent under Gan Ning. If you have the courage to fight last night, it is better to call him and give him one or two thousand cavalry, and let him lead the cavalry to charge outside, and maybe he can solve the current predicament. ”

Liu Biao nodded and said, "That's all, go and ask Gan Ning to come in to see me." ”

"No!"

Gan Ning strode into the big tent, and when he saw Liu Biao, he hugged his fists and said: "The last general, Gan Xingba, meet the Marquis of Chu." Liu Biao asked people to take a seat, and then said kindly: "Your lord often mentions you by my side, saying that you have the courage of ten thousand people, and I summoned you today to make you meritorious, are you willing?" ”

Gan Ning was a subordinate of Huang Zu, and in his early years, he was a water coward on the Yangtze River, robbing the rich and helping the poor, and driving a big ship back and forth to conflict. Later, when he entered Kou Jiangxia, he was forced to the shore for Huang Zu's design, and surrounded him.

He led the crowd to break through, killing only himself, and when he was exhausted, he was captured by Huang Zu's subordinates, and Huang Zu saw that he was a fierce general, so he persuaded him to surrender. Since then, he has also been dominated by Huang Zu and followed Huang Zu left and right.

The relationship between Huang Zu and Liu Biao is not that of master and servant, Huang Zu has his own faction in Jiangxia, and under the general trend, he is attached to Liu Biao, and the two are friends, so Gan Ning will not call Liu Biao the main father, but call Huang Zu the main father.

"I wonder if my father-in-law knows about this?" Gan Ning kept Huang Zu's grace of not killing in mind, and he never forgot it, following the left and right to fight everywhere, and Huang Zu was also very kind to him, so he only had Huang Zu in his heart.

"General Gan, my lord is a dignified Marquis of Chu, and your lord is still attached to him, can't my lord order you?" Kuailiang Road.

Gan Ning said: "The last general has no such intention, just ......"

"Xingba!" Huang Zu came from outside the tent, dressed in iron armor, and his burly figure looked extremely majestic.

"The last general will see the lord!" When Gan Ning saw Huang Zu coming, he hurriedly bowed.

Huang Zu walked to Gan Ning's side, stretched out his hand and patted Gan Ning's shoulder, and said: "Xingba, now that the enemy is now, it is the time to employ people, I and Chu Hou are friends, and I respect him as the master, nominally, you and I are his subordinates, and there should be no distinction between each other." Now is the critical moment for the survival of the Chu army, if you can't focus on the overall situation, the remaining 7,000 soldiers are afraid that the whole army will be wiped out. If you have the ability to turn the tide and repel Ji Ling, the general of the Song Army, then you have made a great achievement, and it is not impossible to be a county guard in the future. ”

Gan Ning was born in Shuikou, although he served Huang Zu, but Huang Zu is just a Jiangxia Taishou, his position is not very high, he is just a captain, and he is not a general. He understands his status very well, so after making meritorious contributions, he often distributes the benefits to his subordinates, and he is alone, and he also saves others the truth.

After listening to Huang Zu's righteous words, Gan Ning said: "The last general understands, please ask the Marquis of Chu and the lord to dispatch at will." ”

After Liu Biao heard this, he laughed and said, "Okay." Gan Ning, Ben Hou will appoint you as a guerrilla general now, lead two thousand cavalry, be sure to repel Ji Ling, and fight a bloody way. ”

Gan Ning hugged his fists and said: "Thank you Master Hou, it's just that there are too many people for two thousand." The front of the camp was full of Song troops, and if they didn't wait for 2,000 people to go out, the front would be blocked, and it would also attract the attention of the Song army. The subordinates only need a hundred fine horsemen, and they will definitely kill the Song army and open up a way of life. ”

"Hundred horses? General Gan, this is not a child's play, the Song army still has more than 20,000 people on the periphery, and there are only 100 horsemen. Isn't it a sheep in the mouth of a tiger? Kuai Liang said worriedly.

Gan Ning said: "The military advisors all think so, then the Song army soldiers will inevitably disagree, although the number of 100 horsemen is small, but Gan Ning wants to use these 100 horsemen to open up a way of life." The Song soldiers were exhausted, and if I had only a hundred horsemen to fight, the enemy would definitely not send too many men to meet them, which also gave me a chance, as long as I could rush into the Song army's camp. It will be able to plunge the Song army into chaos. ”

"Great! General Gan is really a fierce general! Liu Biao said happily. Kuai Liang said: "Lord, just in case." The subordinates thought that when they sent two generals, Wang Wei and Cai Mao, each with a thousand cavalry to escort them, and when General Gan disrupted the Song army, they could be in front of the cavalry. With the infantry behind, they will be able to fight their way out of the encirclement. ”

Liu Biao nodded and said to Gan Ning: "General Gan, I'll leave it to you as soon as I get it." ”

"No!"

Subsequently, Gan Ning was accompanied by Kuai Liang. He personally selected a hundred strong cavalrymen from the battalion, and then gathered a hundred cavalrymen together and rewarded them with fifty bottles of wine and fifty pounds of mutton.

Gan Ning came to the camp, let all the hundred cavalry sit down, and he himself was clothed all over his body, first drank two large bowls of wine in public, and then said: "Tonight I am ordered to fight a bloody road, please drink happily brothers, after you are full of wine and food, go to battle with me, everyone follow me and work hard, and the meritorious cause will be tonight." ”

When everyone heard this, they all looked at each other.

"General, there are more than 20,000 enemy troops outside the camp, and we only have 100 people, isn't this equivalent to a sheep falling into the mouth of a tiger and killing ourselves?"

"I'm not going to go to such a thing as sending me to death!"

After hearing this, Gan Ning was furious, pulled out the sword in his waist, swung the sword and cut the long table in front of him, and said loudly: "Manly man, when you carry a three-foot sword and die on the battlefield, and the country needs to serve, how can you retreat so much?" The rise and fall of the world is the responsibility of the husband, as a general, I am not afraid of death, why should you cherish your own rotten life? Chu Hou treats you well, now is the time to die for Chu Hou, as long as you follow me closely, I guarantee that you will be unscathed. Everyone didn't answer anymore, just looked at Gan Ning, and there was still some hesitation on their faces.

"If you go out with me tonight, you can still have a chance of life, if you can't work hard with me to kill the enemy, I am afraid that the whole army will be wiped out, and the lives of more than 7,000 soldiers in the camp are all in your hands. If you go, you will live, if you stay, you will die, please make your own decisions, I will not stop me, even if I am the only one who goes, I will not retreat half a step! ”

Some of them were Huang Zu's subordinates, who had followed Gan Ning and knew Gan Ning's personality well, so they immediately expressed their willingness to go. The rest of the people were also inspired by Gan Ning, and they all expressed their willingness to go together.

"Great! I would rather give you a bowl, hoping that when you go into battle to kill the enemy, don't retreat and move forward bravely, only in this way will you escape death! ”

"We will obey General Gan's orders!"

Subsequently, Gan Ning ate the wine and meat with 100 people, and after the wine and food were full, Gan Ning asked people to take a hundred white goose feathers respectively, and inserted them on everyone's helmets, all the soldiers wore iron helmets, wore iron armor, and held sabers that were easy to swing, and selected a hundred excellent war horses, and after feeding the war horses, they waited quietly in front of the camp.

After the time, Gan Ning led a hundred fine horses to the front of the walled gate, and he saw Huang Zu leading his friend Su Fei to wait at the walled gate, so he arched his hand on horseback and said: "Lord, Gan Ning will go." ”

Su Fei is a good friend of Gan Ning, who is good at flying knives, and when he saw Gan Ning leading a hundred horsemen forward, he was not very relieved, so he hugged his fist at Huang Zu and said: "Lord, the last general is willing to go with Xingba, and take care of each other!" ”

Huang Zu was a general like Gan Ning, and he was naturally very worried about his life and death, so he immediately nodded and said: "Well, remember to protect Xingba, don't make any mistakes, you two are the first to succeed tonight." ”

"No!"

Su Fei turned over and got on the horse, his waist was full of flying knives, he held a saber in his hand, and he was also draped all over his body, wearing a white feather as a number, and rode his horse to Gan Ning's side. hugged his fists and said: "Xingba, I'm here to help you!" ”

Gan Ning nodded heavily and said to Su Fei: "Follow me on my left and right, don't get scattered." ”

"No!"

Cai Mao and Wang Wei were also ready, each leading a thousand cavalry to wait there.

"Aren't you going to die?" Cai Mao saw a hundred cavalry led by Gan Ning. Disdainful of authenticity.

After hearing this, Wang Wei disagreed, and retorted: "Gan Ning is brave and courageous, although he only has a hundred horsemen, he may not be able to make meritorious contributions. ”

Cai Mao snorted coldly and didn't say anything, but his eyes stared at Huang Zu in the distance, and he thought to himself: "It's best for Gan Ning to die in battle." All the hundred horsemen he brought have gone and never returned, and Huang Zu can lose his prestige from now on, and Jiangxia will truly become the lord's territory. ”

Huang Zu and Cai Mao were not very friendly, Cai Mao always wanted his younger brother Cai Zhong to be Jiangxia Taishou, but because Huang Zu occupied Jiangxia, he never succeeded, so he resented Huang Zu. But Huang Zu has his own faction, and there are two fierce generals under him: Gan Ning and Su Fei. There were also a lot of soldiers and horses, so I endured it all the time.

Liu Biao and Huang Zu are better. is an old friend, and he doesn't care about Huang Zu in Jiangxia, and Huang Zu can always focus on the overall situation, so Liu Biao also trusts Huang Zu a lot, although Cai Mao has said bad things about Huang Zu many times. Liu Biao can also distinguish the authenticity.

Jingzhou's forces are complicated, and the Xiangyang Cai clan is one of them, and the reason why Liu Biao was able to gain a firm foothold in Jingzhou was also thanks to the help of the Cai clan, and he encircled Kuai Liang and Kuai Yue as the masterminds. The plan for him soon made the whole territory of Jingzhou loyal to him, basically there was no turmoil, let alone war, and Jingzhou also became a rare paradise and refuge in the world.

At the second watch, dark clouds covered the moon, and there was darkness between the heavens and the earth.

Gan Ning saw that the opportunity had come, and immediately led Su Fei and a hundred elite cavalry out of the walled gate and went straight to the Chinese army guarded by Ji Ling.

Ji Ling always paid attention to the Chu army camp, and when he saw that about a hundred horsemen were killed from the walled gate, he disagreed, sneered, and said, "Just a hundred horsemen, why worry about it?" Happy, give you 500 cavalry, go to meet the enemy. ”

"No!"

Le took the order and personally led 500 cavalry to meet Gan Ning. Le took the lead, and rushed over with his broadsword, leaving the five hundred cavalry far behind. When he saw Gan Ning rushing over, he felt angry, so he shouted: "Who is coming, report the name, I will be happy to use the knife, and I will not kill the nameless......"

"Huh!"

Gan Ning didn't answer, and when he saw that it was Song Junxiao's general, he accelerated the speed of the horse, rushed directly to Le, and with a knife in his hand, a human head was cut off from the horse.

"General Gan is mighty! General Gan is mighty! Seeing this, Su Fei hurriedly raised his arms and shouted, and the hundred horsemen behind him also shook their spirits and shouted together.

Ji Ling was shocked, only then did he see that it was Gan Ning, and hurriedly turned back to Liang Gang and said, "Gan Ning is brave, give you a thousand cavalry, and surround Gan Ning to death!" ”

"No!"

Liang Gang received the order, and immediately led a thousand cavalry towards Gan Ning, with an angry face, and shouted loudly: "Gan Ning, return my brother's life, I want to avenge Le."

Gan Ning and Su Fei led a hundred elite cavalry to quickly collide with the five hundred cavalry led by Le, they were all inspired by Gan Ning, and they were very brave in battle, and the five hundred cavalry of the Song army saw that the main general was killed, and Gan Ning and others rushed in, and they couldn't help but feel a little afraid. The Song army was stubborn, but once it came into contact with the cavalry led by Gan Ning, the advantages and disadvantages were immediately separated, and the level of morale directly affected the outcome of the battle.

Liang Gang led a thousand cavalry to kill from the side, and when Gan Ning saw this, he turned his head to Su Fei and said, "Brother Su, I'll leave it to you." ”

Su Fei nodded, a faint smile rose on the corner of his mouth, and he took out a flying knife from his waist with his left hand and shot it out quickly.

The cold light flashed, Liang Gang was shocked for a while, only felt a pain in his neck, and his screaming voice stopped suddenly, he couldn't shout if he wanted to, and the blood kept gushing out......

Ji Ling saw that he had broken Liang Gang again, and he was not angry, leaving two partial generals to suppress the formation, he himself carried his sword and rode his horse, and took twenty followers to chase Gan Ning.

At this time, Gan Ning had already rushed to the camp defended by the infantry of the Song army, leading a hundred cavalry like a sharp knife, directly inserting into the ** of the Song army, and a burst of killing, breaking the Song army's waist.

"Points"

Gan Ning shouted, and according to the battle plan he had already formulated, he and Su Fei quickly separated, each leading fifty cavalry to disperse to the left and right, constantly rushing and killing in the camp of the Song army, and everywhere he passed, it was like entering a no-man's land.

The soldiers of the Song army fought all day, it was when they were tired, in the face of the sudden enemy, all they could think of was to avoid the fight, or flee directly, and some wanted to meet the battle, but as soon as they rushed in front of the cavalry, they were cut off their heads, and the Song army looked vulnerable in front of these cavalry......

Subsequently, Gan Ning joined forces with Su Fei again, and a hundred cavalry galloped quickly, galloping along the long defensive line of the Song army. Ji Ling gathered the cavalry of Le Qiao and Liang Gang and followed Gan Ning, but Gan Ning's unconventional style of play gave him a headache.

The Song army's defense line was disrupted, and the neat camp suddenly became loose, and although Ji Ling followed behind, he could never catch up.

Gan Ning and Su Fei took a hundred cavalry, and just moved forward to kill a while, and then turned back and carried out a burst of charging again.

Ji Ling was chasing Gan Ning, and suddenly saw Gan Ning turn the horse's head and kill back, killing towards his side with great momentum, he shook his spirits, and was about to meet the battle with a big sword, but he didn't want the infantry in front of him to suddenly retreat because he couldn't resist Gan Ning's charge, and the torrent of soldiers and Ji Ling's cavalry collided together, and immediately fell into chaos, and more than 1,000 people were killed and trampled to death by the horse's hooves......

Gan Ning saw that Ji Ling's place was in chaos and was surrounded by his own infantry, a strange smile appeared on his face, and as soon as he pulled the reins, the war horse changed direction and galloped directly towards the Song army's camp.

"Gan Ning is leaving" Ji Ling pursued Gan Ning eagerly, and hacked to death a few soldiers who were blocking the way with a big knife, and chased out with the cavalry.

Yuan Shu had fallen asleep in the tent at this time, and suddenly heard the sound of horses' hooves outside the tent, and then there was a sound of fighting, he was suddenly shocked, and when he came out of the tent, he didn't know when Gan Ning actually entered the camp.

The Song army threw most of its troops into the front line to surround the Chu army camp, and only some of the old, weak, sick and disabled people were left in the camp, and the Chu army was surrounded by regiments, these people saw that the Chu army could not break through at all, so they slept peacefully, and even the soldiers guarding the camp were tired and napped.

Gan Ning's sudden arrival caught these people off guard, and before they could resist, Gan Ning had already entered the camp......

"Hurry up and stop them, what is Ji Ling doing to eat, how can there be a Chu army coming?" Yuan Shu didn't care about putting on the armor, so he left the big tent of the Chinese army directly under the escort of his own soldiers, found a random war horse nearby, rode it and left, and scolded loudly as he walked.

Gan Ning and Su Fei began to set fire to the camp with hundreds of horsemen, causing chaos in the Song army's camp and a burst of fire. Ji Ling chased after him from behind, and when he saw the fire in the camp, he was shocked and hurriedly said: "Quickly put out the fire, quickly put out the fire, we must not let the fire burn the grain and grass." ”

As soon as the order was issued, Ji Ling immediately led people to give up chasing Gan Ning, and instead joined the ranks of fighting the fire with all his might. (To be continued......)
