Chapter 171: Soochow's Counterattack (I)
The fire flickered, and the three hundred Jinfan Ruishi each raised their knives and slashed, shouting in their mouths, and with Gan Ning flying to kill, they rushed left and right in the village. The Wei soldiers scattered in panic, and several Wei generals saw it and hurriedly got on their horses to capture Gan Ning. Gan Ning laughed loudly, threw up the chain and hit a person first, and then Wei will arrive, Gan Ning slammed the knife with his other hand, the speed of the knife was amazing, and the knife fell with his hand, and he hacked the person to death. In the end, when the Wei general saw it, he was already frightened and lost his soul, so he pulled out his horse and fled. At this moment, several Jinfan Ruishi rushed up and cut him off the horse from behind. Wei Bingzheng didn't know how many enemy soldiers there were, and they disturbed each other, and Gan Ning and the three hundred brocade sails were brave and evil, and they couldn't avoid them. Gan Ning led three hundred brocade sail thieves to gallop in the Wei military camp, rampage and collision, and kill whenever they wanted. The battalions clamored and raised fire like stars, and the Wei soldiers fled in all directions. Gan Ning suddenly flew wildly, killing from the north gate to the south gate, and no one dared to stop the Wei soldiers. Suddenly, Gan Ning's face changed, and he saw Le Jin not far in front of him, walking with the support of a team of soldiers. Gan Ning smiled coldly, patted the horse and flew away, and three hundred Jinfan Ruishi followed, protecting Lejin's Wei soldiers, when they heard the sound of the bell, they knew that Gan Ning was coming, and they fled in fright. I saw Gan Ning throwing off the chain with one hand and smashing it towards Le Jin. At this moment, Yu Ban Prancing Horse arrived and stabbed the flying chain with a single shot. Gan Ning then retracted the chain, galloped at the horse, Yu Ban shouted, and beckoned Le Jin to attack Gan Ning together. When Le Jin heard this, his heart tightened, and he suddenly shook his spirits and suddenly came to fight. Gan Ning and Yu Ban collided with each other, Yu Banwu spear stabbed, Gan Ning avoided them one by one, and flew up with a knife, Yu Ban's face was hideous, he shouted, and swept out with a shot. The two weapons collided, but Gan Ning's strength was a few points stronger, and the forbidden gun was opened, and the knife fell. Seeing that Yu Ban's situation was dangerous, fortunately, Le Jin rushed over in time and opened Gan Ning's tiger tooth broadsword with one sword. Gan Ning laughed, and three hundred Jinfan Ruishi swarmed to kill. Gan Ning quickly killed more than a dozen He, and forced the ban and Le Jin to retreat, opened the formation, and led the army out of the south gate of the village. Yu Ban saw it from behind, and knew that the attacking Wu soldiers were only Gan Ning's 300 horsemen, so he was so angry that he hurriedly ordered the sergeant to chase and kill. Yu Ban and Le Jin each led a soldier and horse to advance quickly, and the Wei soldiers shouted and scolded endlessly. Gan Ning and the three hundred Jinfan Ruishi were laughing rampantly. Yu Ban's face was full of humiliation, his eyes widened, and he roared.
"Gan Xingba!! If I can't kill you, I won't be a man!! ”
As soon as Yu Ban's voice fell, in front of him, a branch of soldiers and horses rushed over to meet Gan Ning's three hundred cavalry. Le Jin fixed his eyes and looked at it, the general wearing red armor and yellow robe was none other than Zhou Youping, the general of the Eastern Wu Huben Army, and he was suddenly shocked, and his face turned frightened. A Gan Ning is so difficult to deal with, if you add Zhou Tai, who is even more famous, if there is the slightest negligence, I am afraid that my life will not be guaranteed. Le Jin was full of thoughts for a while, and he was anxious to persuade him.
"General, our army is in a hurry, and the night ahead is dark, and the situation is unknown. And he has Zhou Youping to rescue, if there is an ambush, what is good? Why don't you have the right and withdraw the army, and after the rectification, then raise the war!! ”
Yu Ban listened to the words, the hideous tiger face changed color in a row, and he was also very jealous of Zhou Tai in his heart, so he suppressed his anger and ordered the army to withdraw. Zhou Tai saw that the Wei army did not dare to chase after him, so he also withdrew his army. When Gan Ning led three hundred Jinfan Ruishi back to the city, it was already a normal time. Sun Quan led the generals to greet him in the school field, and everyone was shocked when they saw Gan Ning riding alone. When he arrived at the camp gate, Sun Quan ordered the sergeants to beat the drum and play the flute to line up to greet each other, and the sergeants said long live, and the cheers were shocking.
Sun Quan came to greet him. Gan Ning dismounted and bowed down. Sun Quan hurriedly went to help him up, and praised Gan Ning with his hand.
"Xingba's departure is enough to make Cao Wei's people frightened. Gu Guanqing's martial bravery is enough to crown the ears of the three armies!! ”
Gan Ning was so praised by Sun Quan, and most of the Wu generals were convinced. Sun Quan then gave him a thousand horses of brocade silk and three hundred sharp knives. Gan Ning bowed and received it, and rewarded 300 sharp knives to 300 Jinfan Ruishi. Sun Quan was very happy and smiled with the generals.
"Cao Mengde has Zhang Junyi, and Lone also has Gan Xingba, which is enough to be an enemy!!"
Let's say that Yu Ban and Lejin collected the army and returned to the village, rectified the soldiers and horses, and the village was in a mess, and all the soldiers had palpitations. But when I heard the sound, I thought it was the bell of last night, like a bird with a bow. At noon, a team of soldiers and horses arrived first, and a few hours ago, Zhang Jaw had arrived dozens of miles away, and he heard the shouts of killing and frightened the ghosts and gods, and hurriedly ordered a pair of soldiers and horses to go to the sentry first. Yu Ban heard that his jaw was coming, his face sank, and he quickly asked the sergeant to tidy up the camp. When night came, the wind and dust were covered in front of the Wei army, and Zhang Jaw led an army of 50,000 people all over the mountains. Yu Ban and Le Jin led a cadre to greet the school at Yuanmen. Zhang Jaw arrived on horseback, and saw that there were traces of fierce battles in the village, and there were traces of fire burning in many places, so he asked Yu Ban and Le Jin about the battle last night. Yu Ban and Le Jin knelt on the ground, about to tell the story of last night, and lied that the generals of Eastern Wu Ganning, Zhou Tai and other generals came out, and there were tens of thousands of soldiers attacking Wu. Everyone fought hard to fight a decisive battle, and only then did they repel the Wu soldiers. When he heard this, his eyes narrowed, and he thought about it in his heart, but he didn't expose the lies of the two. After all, the war is imminent, Yu Ban and Le Jin are both important ministers of Cao Wei, and the two of them have been fighting with Cao Cao, the king of Wei, for more than twenty or thirty years, with profound qualifications and prestige in the army. If Zhang Jaw delves into this matter, the two will definitely hold a grudge, and if there is a change because of this, the self-army will not attack itself, but will be taken advantage of by Soochow.
Zhang Jaw then asked the army to go back to the village to rest, and praised Yu Ban and Le Jin, and the two of them saw Zhang Jaw undoubtedly, and their hearts were secretly happy. On the third watch that night, Xiahou Yuan led the army to follow, and several confidants reported the past. After hearing about the past, Xiahou Yuan seemed to understand why Zhang Jaw was like this. Xiahou Yuan then summoned Yu Ban and Le to come in to see. The two of them came in a hurry. Xiahou Yuan's face was cold, and he drank sharply.
"Last night, it was clear that only Gan Xingba attacked the camp, and there were only 300 soldiers with him. How dare you deceive!? ”
When Yu Ban and Le Jin heard this, they hurriedly knelt on the ground and pleaded guilty. Xiahou Yuan snorted coldly and said to the two.
"Zhang Junyi attaches great importance to the overall situation, forgives you and other seniors, and is afraid of severe punishment, and you have grievances, so I will not demolish you. I also save face for you. Why don't you take your sins and make meritorious deeds to repay his kindness!? ”
Yu Ban and Le Jin heard the words, looked at each other, and knew the intention of Zhang Jaw, and the resentment against Zhang Jaw immediately disappeared. When it came to the coming day, the two of them came to open their jaws and plead guilty. Zhang Jaw did not blame, and helped the two of them to say.
"The two Ming Princes are both famous generals in the world. The jaw is shallow and shallow, but fortunately by the King of Wei Enhong, he was able to command the three armies. Jaw Wan can repay the great grace of King Wei after death. I also hope that the two Ming dukes will do their best to complement each other, and if he can make contributions in the future, it will depend on the hard work of the two Ming dukes. ”
Yu Ban and Le Jin heard this, their faces were full of guilt, and they shouted in unison.
"I am willing to serve the general!"
Zhang Jaw covered his palms and smiled, and after appeasing the two, he called Xiahou Yuan to discuss the war
At noon, Zhang Jaw personally led his troops to Shouchun City to fight. 50,000 Wei soldiers were several miles away from the city, setting up a majestic position. The Wei soldiers beat the drums and shook loudly, the gold sounded, and the soldiers raised their weapons and called the Wu soldiers in the city in unison to fight. The city guards hurriedly sent someone to report to Sun Quan. Sun Quan happened to discuss strategies with a group of civil and military personnel. When the generals heard that Zhang Jaw had led the troops in person, they remembered the fiasco half a month ago, and they were all afraid. Ling Tong saw that Gan Ning had made meritorious service earlier, and he rushed out and shouted.
"The king doesn't have to worry about it. The enemy opens his jaw. ”
Sun Quan was overjoyed when he heard this, so he agreed. After a while, the drums beat three times, and Ling Tong ordered 30,000 soldiers and horses, rushed out of the city, and set up a formation. Sun Quan introduced Zhou Yu, Gan Ning and others to watch the battle.
The two armies face each other, and at the round of the face, the jaw is open, the left is forbidden, and the right is Lejin. The armor of the three generals is gorgeous and majestic. Sun Quan was secretly frightened. Ling Tong jumped on a horse with a double whip in his hand, came out to the front of the battle, and bluntly said that he would fight with his jaw open.
When Le Jin saw that it was Ling Tong, he glared at him, and suddenly flew out with a knife, and scolded in his mouth.
"Yellow-haired erection, if you want to fight a decisive battle with my general, you first asked me about the sharp blade in my hand!!"
When Ling Tong heard this, he immediately became angry, gritted his teeth, roared, and suddenly came straight to make fun of it. Lejin bravely welcomes it. When the two horses approached, Le Jin slashed with a knife. Ling Tongyi dodged, slammed at Le Jin's head with a whip, and smashed at Le Jin's seated horse. Le Jin dodged with one hand and danced with a knife in the other. Ling Tong seized the opportunity first and attacked suddenly. Le Jin was killed by Ling Tong and secretly complained. The two fought fiercely for dozens of rounds. The Lejin knife style is getting more and more messy, and it looks like this formation will soon be defeated.
At this time, Xiahou Yuan rushed to the gate from the rear army to see that Le Jin was in a critical situation, his tiger eyes narrowed, and he came up with a plan, flashed behind his jaw, and opened his bow and arrow. The arrow shot out suddenly, and it was amazingly fast. At this moment, I saw Ling Tong strike hard, and a whip swept on Le Jin's breastplate, Le Jin screamed bitterly and fell off the horse. Ling Tong was overjoyed, and when he was about to chase and kill, the cold arrow had already been shot, and it hit the horse that sat down, and the horse neighed in pain, stood upright, and knocked Ling Tong to the ground. Le Jin rolled on the ground several times, and suddenly heard a violent noise, and then saw Ling Tong fall to the ground. Le Jin was ecstatic when he saw it, and hurriedly grabbed the big knife beside him, like a creeping tiger, and pounced on Ling Tong. Seeing that the situation had changed drastically, Sun Quan exclaimed in front of the battle. Seeing that Le Jin's big knife was about to be cut, he only heard the sound of the bowstring, and an arrow was shot out suddenly, and in the middle of Le Jin's face door, Le Jin screamed, but he endured the severe pain, and subconsciously cut the knife indiscriminately, but it was cut empty. Ling Tong hurriedly kicked out, and this kick was so powerful that it actually kicked Le Jin's whole person away. The officers and men of the two armies were frightened and hurriedly rushed out. In the Wei army, Zhang Jaw, Xiahou Yuan, and Yu Ban Pegasus rushed over, and Gan Ning, Zhou Tai, and Lu Meng rushed out from Wu Bing's side. Between the lightning and flint, each of the two parties rescued one and returned to the camp, and Mingjin stopped fighting.
Ling Tong returned to the city, remembered the scene just now, had palpitations, and hurriedly came to thank Sun Quan. Sun Quan smiled, but said.
"At that time, things changed suddenly, and I couldn't react for a while. Only Gan Ning is delicate, and the one who releases the arrow to save you is Gan Ning. ”
When Ling Tong heard this, his face changed continuously. Gan Ning stood beside Sun Quan without the slightest expression. Seeing this, Sun Quan sighed.
"At the beginning, Xingba and your father were their masters, the so-called battlefield has no father and son, if the two armies are against the enemy, the father and son will also kill their relatives in righteousness. In the past, Ling Gong died on the battlefield, and it has been ten years since then. Although the revenge of killing his father is not shared. But if Gongji can get revenge, who will save you today?! ”
