Chapter 167: The Battle of Shouchun

Several Xiahoudun henchmen saw it clearly, and pounced, and Dun Panping first hacked one person to death with a knife, and then turned with a knife and killed another person. The two screams suddenly made Xiahou come back to his senses, and the tiger's eyes widened, and he picked up his spear and stabbed Pan Ping in the throat. Pan Ping hurriedly held the knife against it and hurriedly retreated. Xiahoudun gritted his teeth, seemingly eager to swallow Pan Ping alive, but in his heart he wanted to withdraw the army and return to the camp to save the camp. Pan Ping had a cold face, and slowly retreated into the ranks of his own army, ready to fight with Xiahoudun at any time. Suddenly, Xiahoudun drove back and ordered the sergeant to go to the end of the killing, but he turned around and rushed down to the city on a ladder car, and urgently ordered the sergeant Mingjin to collect the army. At the same time, Cao Ren, who was ambushing at the north gate, also saw that the village was on fire, and hurriedly ordered the sergeants to retreat to the village.

Suddenly, a cannon rang out at the north gate. Liu Feng led a large army to intercept and kill. It turned out that Kuai Yue was in the city, and when he saw the Wei army arranged, he saw that he left the north gate, and he expected that the Wei army would set up an ambush outside the north gate, and wanted to wait for the city of Yancheng to be broken, and when the army fled from the north gate, he took advantage of the chaos to ambush. Therefore, Kuai Yue taught Liu Feng to lead 20,000 soldiers and horses, and waited at the north gate, but as soon as there was movement at the north gate, he immediately led the army to raid. However, it was said that Cao Renzheng led the army to withdraw, and Liu Feng led his troops to intercept it, and the Wei soldiers were suddenly in chaos, and they were killed by the Shu army in a short time. Cao Ren's face was dark, and the horse suddenly flew in the chaotic army, and when he saw Liu Fengzheng commanding the soldiers and horses, he grabbed the copper hammer in his hand, saw it clearly, and threw the hammer violently. At this time, Liu Feng was eager to make meritorious contributions, and he only cared about commanding soldiers and horses, where would he pay attention. With a violent sound, Liu Feng felt as if a heavy object was being smashed on the left, and his face suddenly changed, and if he wanted to avoid the time, the copper hammer had already smashed on Liu Feng's face. Suddenly, Liu Feng screamed miserably, flew from his horse and fell to the ground, not knowing whether he was alive or dead. When the Shu soldiers saw it, they hurriedly rushed to the rescue. When Cao Ren saw that Liu Feng had been hit, he was overjoyed, shouted, and looked at Liu Feng with a gun. Liu Feng's life and death were unknown, and the surrounding Shu soldiers saw it, and they were immediately chaotic. Cao Ren led the army to take advantage of the momentum and attacked fiercely, killing the Shu soldiers and escaping. Cao Ren was anxious about the situation in the village, and did not take advantage of the situation to cover up the killing, so he led the army to rush to the camp.

At the same time, Pan Ping led his army out of the east gate and pursued Xiahoudun's soldiers and horses. Seeing that Pan Ping was chasing closely, Xiahoudun suddenly returned to his horse, roared loudly, and looked at Pan Ping with a hideous face.

"Shaft!! Hugh is rampant!! ”

Xiahou roared like thunder. When Pan Ping saw this, he was shocked, and hurriedly hung the knife on the saddle, put the arrow on the bow, looked at Xiahoudun's face, and shot an arrow. Xiahoudun's one-eyed eye seemed to flash a red flame, and the horse flew suddenly, piercing the cold arrow with a shot. Pan Ping shot two more arrows in succession, and Xiahoudun pierced them one by one. Pan Ping was frightened and suddenly reined in and left. Xiahoudun saw Pan Ping secretly pulling the bow, but he didn't chase it, gritted his teeth to suppress his anger, and retreated. Pan Ping saw that Xiahoudun did not chase after him, and felt a little regretful. At this time, most of the Wei soldiers had already gone away. Pan Ping still had important things to do, so he didn't dare to act rashly, so he led his troops to a mountain forest in the east.

However, it was said that although Pan Feng set fire to Wei Zhai, he was also wounded by an arrow, and he was returning from leading his troops. Xiahoudun heard the sound of horses' hooves in the eastern mountains, and immediately guessed that it must be the Shu soldiers who attacked the village and rushed back. Xiahou was stunned, so he led his troops and horses to make a detour and intercept them. Soon, the two armies met. When Xiahoudun saw Pan Feng, he burst out with murderous energy, roared, and jumped on his horse to kill Pan Feng. Pan Feng was shocked, and hurriedly shook his spirits, and shook his axe against Xiahoudun. The two fought fiercely for dozens of rounds, and Pan Feng had an arrow wound, which made the axe more and more messy. Xiahoudun was overjoyed in his heart, and was about to kill Pan Feng in one go. Suddenly, Pan Ping led the army to respond. When Xiahou saw it, although he was very unwilling, he didn't dare to hold it up, and after attacking for a while, forcing back Pan Feng, he reined in his horse and led the army to retreat. Pan Feng snorted coldly, and suddenly the horse wanted to chase it, but the arrow on his body suddenly came with a sharp pain, which made Pan Feng grin for a while. When Pan Ping arrived, he was startled when he saw that his father-in-law was pale, and saw that Pan Feng was hit by arrows in his chest and abdomen, so he hurriedly ordered the sergeant to support Pan Feng to return to the city.

The night of fighting ended. Cao Ren and Xiahoudun returned to the village one after another, and the fire in the village had been extinguished. Cao Renyin's face was cold, so he taught the soldiers to count the casualties and losses. After statistics, the original army of 100,000 is now only more than 70,000 people left. The weight of grain and grass was almost half lost, and when he retreated in a panic last night, he also lost a lot of siege equipment. When Cao Ren heard the report, his face became more and more cold, and he urgently ordered the sergeant to report to the Chinese army and tell Cao Cao.

As for the Shu army, Kuai Yue heard the reports of the future, and learned that nearly 20,000 troops had been lost in the continuous battle, and Liu Feng was rescued back to the city by the soldiers last night. Pan Feng knew that his injuries were aggravated by anger, and he fainted on the ground, and after the doctor gave first aid, he told everyone that Pan Feng's injuries were not optimistic, and he had not rested for two months, and he must not fight again. When Kuai Yue heard this, he panicked and hurriedly sent someone to report to Liu Bei.

Pan Feng was injured, there was no general in Jingzhou, and Cao Cao's army did not know when it would arrive. Just when the Shu ministers were worried, the five tiger generals Hua Xiong and the legal justice, as well as Wu Ban, Feng Xi, Zhang Nan and others rushed to Yancheng. It turned out that Zhuge Liang had expected that the battle in Jingzhou would be fierce, and it would be difficult to stop the general trend of Cao's army by relying on Pan Feng, Pan Ping, Liu Feng and other original people, so he deployed Huaxiong and others to Jingzhou to help in the war. Huaxiong and others arrived, and Kuai Yue and other civil and military officers all felt that the big stone in their hearts fell slightly. Kuai Yue then led everyone to see Pan Feng, and Pan Feng saw everyone, and he was also at ease, and temporarily handed over military affairs to Huaxiong and Fa Zheng respectively.

Let's say that Sun Quan ordered Zhou Yu to garrison troops in Hefei to prepare for the attack on Yan and Yuzhou. Zhou Yu received the order and gathered 100,000 elite soldiers in Hefei. Sun Quan later knew that Cao Cao had marched from the Central Plains to Jingzhou, so he led Gan Ning, LĂź Meng, Ling Tong and other generals to Hefei. Sun Quan arrived soon and rewarded the three armies. One day, Sun Quan asked his ministers to discuss in the tent. Zhou Yu's face froze, and he took the lead in walking out and offered advice.

"Now Cao Cao ordered Huainan to guard Zhu Guang, stationed troops in Shouchun, opened rice fields, and settled in various counties in Yuzhou to fill the army. Today, you can take Shouchun first and take its food, so that the morale of the Wei army will be greatly reduced, and the war in Yuzhou will be invincible! ! ”

As soon as Zhou Yu's plan came out, all the civil and military forces in the tent secretly praised it. Sun Quan listened and smiled.

"The Metropolitan Governor's plan is very much to my liking. Count it quickly!! ”

When Zhou Yu heard this, he drank loudly, and his starry eyes flashed. So Zhou Yu then taught LĂź Meng and Gan Ning to be the vanguard, and Jiang Qin and Pan Zhang to join forces, and then led the army to set off first. Sun Quan led Zhou Tai, Ding Feng, Dong Xi, and Xu Sheng as the Chinese army. Shi Chengpu, Huang Gai, Han Dang and other veterans were all guarding everywhere, and none of them went out with the army.

However, it was said that Zhou Yu first led 30,000 troops and horses to cross the river, killed Huainan, and went to Shouchun City. When Zhu Guang, the governor of Shouchun, heard that Zhou Yu, the governor of Eastern Wu, was leading troops to kill, he was so frightened that his face changed drastically, and he urgently asked people to ask for help from Zhang Jaw, and at the same time ordered the soldiers in the city to stick to the city, and the strong wall did not come out, waiting for reinforcements to come to rescue.

Zhou Yu led the army to the city to see, and first taught Gan Ning to go out to fight. Gan Ning led the order to go out of the battle, and shouted loudly under Shouchun City. But there was no reaction from the city. When Gan Ning saw it, his face turned cold, and he slapped the horse and flew forward. When the soldiers in the city saw it, they hurriedly put their bows on the arrows, and the arrows rained down, and Gan Ning drew his sword and slashed indiscriminately, braving the rain of arrows, and forced to the edge of the city to shout and scold. Seeing that Gan Ning was so rampant, the Wei generals in the city were furious, so they ordered a group of soldiers and horses to rush to the south gate. Gan Ning ran around the city, and suddenly a cannon rang out, and a Wei army suddenly turned to the south gate. Gan Ning looked at it and grinned, but he was not afraid of anti-joy, and Pegasus crashed into the crowd. The Wei army had hundreds of men and horses, and when they saw Gan Ning killing him single-handedly, they were suddenly shocked and rushed away. Gan Ning laughed, danced the tiger tooth knife in his hand, and flew straight away, a member of Wei will ride a horse to meet him, the two horses intersected, Gan Ning raised the knife in his hand, the knife speed was amazingly fast, and he cut down the Wei general from the horse. The blood rain flew violently, and I saw Gan Ning rushing left and right with a dancing knife, killing through in an instant. When those Wei soldiers reacted, they realized that the general of the self-army had already been killed by Gan Ning, and they were immediately panicked and fled. Gan Ning shouted in ecstasy, and chased after him with a knife.

Zhou Yu saw it from a distance, smiled brightly, and said to the generals.

"Gan Xingba is really a tiger general in the world!"

Gan Ning killed for a while, and the Wei soldiers scattered and fled. When the soldiers in the city saw this, they hurriedly released their arrows again. Gan Ning danced the knife to resist, and suddenly there was the sound of Mingjin. Gan Ning then rushed back to the camp and withdrew to the camp with the army.

Zhou Yu gathered the generals in the tent and asked the generals in a condensed voice.

"Zhu Guang is defending the city, according to the opinions of the public, how can he get Shouchun?"

As soon as Zhou Yu's voice fell, Jiang Yin attended and replied.

"Don't worry about it. The other army wanted to defend to the death, so we sent our soldiers to build a mountain of earth and attack it. ”

Zhou Yu listened, smiled indifferently, and shook his head gently. Pan Zhang pondered for a while, then said casually.

"If this is not possible, it is better to erect a cloud ladder, build a rainbow bridge, and look down at the city and attack it."

Zhou Yu listened, shook his head and smiled, and slowly turned his gaze to Lu Meng. Lu Meng's eyes froze, and then he attended.

"Such a method will take time and moon to make, and if the other army saves the army, it will not be possible. Now that our army has just arrived, its morale is sharp, and it is time to take advantage of this sharp spirit to attack vigorously. If the Metropolitan Governor is willing to personally lead the three armies, he will be in front of the line and provoke the sergeants, which will definitely add to the edge. In my opinion, you can enter the army in Pingming in the future, and you will break the city before noon!! ”

When Zhou Yu heard this, he smiled brightly and even said that he was good. The plan was settled, and Zhou Yu followed Lu Meng's plan and made his own arrangements. At the fifth watch of the next day, the army was ordered to cook and eat. The sergeant had a full meal and rested for a while. Zhou Yu got on the horse, led the generals, and ordered the march. The 30,000 Wu soldiers shouted in unison, which was very majestic.

So the three armies of Eastern Wu marched largely, and Zhou Yu personally led his soldiers and horses to kill under Shouchun City. When Zhu Guang saw that Dongwu was coming to attack, he was immediately in a hurry and urgently called the sergeant to prepare for the battle. Zhou Yu galloped wildly, pulled out the sword at his waist and made a move, and the sergeants of all armies fought bravely.

Gan Ning, Lu Meng, Jiang Yin, Pan Zhang, etc., will leap together, bear the brunt of the attack, and kill to the north gate of Shouchun in four ways. The arrows and stones on the city were all down, and Lu Meng hurriedly ordered the sword and shield men to form a shield wall to block it. Jiang Yin and Pan Zhang commanded the soldiers and horses and slammed the city gate with wooden stakes. A loud bang broke out, and the Eastern Wu soldiers rushed violently, and the sharp edge was strong. In order to boost morale, Zhou Yu personally beat the drums. Wu Bing was all shaken in spirit, brave and not afraid of death, and killed under the city. When the soldiers in the city saw that Wu soldiers were so brave, they were all frightened. A few hours later, with a loud bang, the gates fell. Gan Ning took the tiger tooth broadsword, held the iron chain, and took the lead in running into the city. There were already several teams of crossbowmen waiting in the city, and when they saw Gan Ning killing, they immediately burst out with arrows. Gan Ning roared, and rushed to kill with iron chains, sweeping over many Wei soldiers. When Zhu Guang saw it, his face was as frightened as ashes, and he hurriedly called the guards next to him to intercept and kill. Gan Ning danced the iron chain wildly, smashed and swept constantly, and rushed forward in a bloody color, unstoppable. Zhu Guang saw that Gan Ning was approaching, and he was already so frightened that his soul flew away, and he ran away. Gan Ning saw it and yelled.

"Little thief, where to escape!!

The sound fell and the chain sounded, Zhu Guang screamed miserably, only to see Gan Ning knock down Zhu Guang with a chain. The soldiers who came from behind all rushed forward and cut a bloody path with their knives. Gan Ning swept away the soldiers with iron chains and chased after Zhu Guang. Zhu Guang endured the severe pain, crawled and fled, and was wrapped around his head by Gan Ning. Gan Ning laughed, pulled suddenly, and pulled Zhu Guang's head off violently. Blood flew and a skull flew into the sky. Gan Ning kicked quickly, jumped over to catch Zhu Guang's head, and shouted.

"Zhu Guang is dead, why don't you surrender soon!!"

When Zhu Guang saw the deployment, all his colors changed, and they all put down their weapons one after another, knelt down and surrendered. Only a small number of men and horses were still resisting, and LĂź Meng, Jiang Yin, and Pan Zhang led troops to clear them, and when Fang Caichen was gone, the remnants were exhausted. Zhou Yu then led the army into Shouchun, and Gan Ning came to see him with a Zhu Guang head. Zhou Yu was overjoyed, rewarded the three armies, and the sergeants were all happy.

However, he said that when he heard that Shouchun was in danger, he hurriedly urged the army to march and led the army to the halfway, and the sentry horse reported that Zhou Yu, the governor of Eastern Wu, led 30,000 Wu soldiers to conquer Shouchun, and Zhu Guang was killed by Gan Ning. Zhang Jaw's face changed greatly when he heard this, and Le Jin heard the words, gritted his teeth and said to open his jaw.

"General Zhang, the other army is hard to overcome Shouchun, at this time it will be tired, why not send troops quickly, recapture Shouchun, and avenge Zhu Guang!?"

When he heard this, his face changed continuously, but he finally suppressed the irritability in his heart and shook his head.

"No, you can't. His army has just conquered Shouchun, is vigorous, and has a city to rely on. If our military trade advances, it will be difficult to achieve it. and first collect the army and withdraw to Ruyin. When the army arrives, we will plan for the future. ”

When Le Jin heard this, he stared at the tiger, although he was unwilling, but after all, he was the commander of the three armies, but he didn't dare to make a mistake. Zhang Jaw then collected his army and rushed back to Ruyin.

Not long after, Sun Quan led the rear army to Shouchun, and Sun Quan heard that Zhou Yu had taken Shouchun so quickly, and he was surprised and happy. At that time, Sun Quan led troops into the city, comforted the three armies, rewarded Zhou Yu, Lu Meng, Gan Ning and other meritorious people, and set up a banquet to celebrate his achievements to show his achievements.
