Today's Dongwu sailors are in addition to Sima Yi, the governor of the capital. There are also three commanders, namely Quan Cong, Ding Feng and Zang Ai.

Quan Cong and Ding Feng have been by the side of 6 Xun since the day of 6 Xun's worship, and they have won the trust of 6 Xun, and as Jiangdong generals, they are also proficient in water warfare. As for Zang Ai, he joined the naval army after the construction of Dagang in Donglai, and he had never been in contact with water warfare before, even if he had been trained for several years, he was not as good as Quan Cong and Ding Feng in terms of combat command and comprehensive tactics.

During the war, Quan Cong and Ding Feng naturally became the commanders of the front line, while Zang Ai could only be responsible for the transportation of grain and grass in the rear because he was not familiar with water warfare.

Leling Port.

The Yellow River has undergone many diversions in its history, so the lower reaches of the Yellow River during the Three Kingdoms era are different from the lower reaches of the Yellow River today. Leling is an important port north of the Yellow River estuary.

After Sima Yi established the Hebei battalion, he ordered the two of them to occupy Leling Port, as an important base and supply point for the navy in Hebei, and at the same time, it also formed a corner with Sima Yi's Hebei battalion, which could be attacked, retreated, and defended.

It's just that Quan Cong and Ding Feng have quite a prejudice against Sima Yi. Naturally, he was willing because Sima Yi seized the military power of 6 Xun. Quan Cong and Ding Feng have followed 6 Xun for many years, and naturally have a deep prejudice against Sima Yi. But Sima Yi is a big official, and the two of them have no way to take Sima Yi, just a little bit of yang and yin.

Inside the big tent of the Chinese army in Guangling Port.

Ding Fengbang next to Quan Cong filled a glass of wine, and Quan Cong was not polite, took it and drank it all.

Ding Feng filled another cup for Quan Cong, and at the same time said, "Hey, I can't imagine that Cao Rong is the lord of a country, and he will come down like this!" It's too sudden! I think how powerful their Cao family was during the Battle of Chibi back then! It's almost like a little bit to dominate the world, but now it's only been more than 20 years, and the Cao family is over! ”

Quan Cong nodded: "Hmph...... Cao Rong's surrender was indeed unexpected by us, I didn't expect it, and Sima Yi definitely didn't expect it. Now that Yecheng has hung the banner of the Liu family, presumably the hundreds of thousands of troops under Cao Shuang's command will soon fall. The Han army has hundreds of thousands of people for no reason, I think this Sima Yi wants to gain a foothold in Jizhou, but it will be difficult! ”

"Sima Yi's good luck has come to an end! What do you think about Sima Yi to gain His Majesty's trust? It's not because he first offered Huaibei, and then said that he surrendered Xuzhou and Qingzhou! This time, he fought in Jizhou, and consumed countless money and food in a few years, but he didn't get an inch of land, His Majesty must be displeased, he Sima Yi is also this book, compared to our 6 generals, far worse! Ding Feng said, pouting.

"If Sima Yi really retreats like this, then it is impossible for us to stay in Leling, I heard that Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong are also proficient in water warfare, and Guan Ping has followed him for many years in Jingzhou. There are also some skills in water warfare, I'm afraid that our water army is living a better life than it is now! Quan Cong spoke.

"Don't worry about this, there are hundreds of thousands of 6 troops under Sima Yi's command, do you want to expect our naval army to come and attack the city and plunder the land? Even if His Majesty blames it in the future, he won't blame the two of us. ”

At this moment, the little colonel walked in from outside.

"Two generals, General Wei Qiujian begs to see you!"

"Biqiu Jian? Isn't he Cao Shuang's sergeant? What is he here for? Ding Feng said puzzled.

"Whatever! Since he's here, why don't we meet? Go on, please come up! ”

……

Biqiu Jian was brought to the tent, and he saw two generals inside, thinking that they were Quan Cong and Ding Feng.

"Biqiu Jian has seen two generals." Biqiu Jian clenched his fists and said very calmly.

"General Biqiu, after all, you and I are still at war, you came to my Leling, I don't know what you have to do?" Quan Cong was the first to ask.

"The two generals must already know that my lord Cao Rong has surrendered to the Han army, right?"

Quan Cong and Ding Feng nodded at the same time, and Ding Feng asked, "I don't know when you General Cao Shuang are going to surrender to the navy?" ”

"I will increase General Cao Shuang and not surrender!" Biqiu said categorically.

"Don't fall? He Cao Shuang commanded hundreds of thousands of troops, if he didn't surrender, why should he support hundreds of thousands of troops? In this Cao Heng has already descended, he Cao Shuang is just a courtier, can An not descend? ”

"Will be outside. The king's fate is not affected! Besides, Liu Chan and my general Cao Shuang have a grudge against killing his father, this enmity is not shared, if General Cao Shuang surrenders to the Han army, what face will he see in the future General Cao Zhen under Jiuquan! Biqiu Jian said sonorously.

"Oh? Cao Shuang doesn't fall? Quan Cong glanced at Ding Feng, and then asked: "Then to put it this way, General Biqiu, you came to my Leling for ......."

"I can't surrender to the Han Dynasty, so I'm going to surrender to Eastern Wu in order to protect myself."

Quan Cong and Ding Feng's eyes lit up at the same time, what Biqiu Jian said was reasonable, Cao Shuang and Adou had a grudge against killing their father, Cao Shuang naturally would not surrender to the Han army, and Cao Shuang's surrender meant that hundreds of thousands of troops under Cao Shuang's command would also surrender, which was a big cake.

After a while, Ding Feng took the lead in asking: "Cao Shuang wants to surrender, why don't you go to Sima Yi, but come to the two of us?" Do you know that Sima Yi is the governor of my Eastern Wu, the supreme commander in Jizhou, you surrender, you should go to him. ”

"The two generals don't have to be suspicious, when General Cao Zhen was there, there was often friction with that Sima Yi, if my general Cao Shuang surrendered to Sima Yi, then Sima Yi would definitely embarrass my general Cao Shuang, so the general Cao Shuang sent me to this Leling, hoping that the two generals could write to Lord Wu, so that Lord Wu could send others to accept us. We will be able to surrender with confidence! ”

"I see!" Quan Cong and Ding Feng nodded at the same time, if Sima Yi and Cao Zhen were not in harmony, it was reasonable for Cao Shuang to refuse to surrender directly to Sima Yi.

"This matter is very important, and I would like to ask General Biqiu to give us a little time, so that I can discuss it later." Ding Bong spoke again.

Biqiu Jian didn't expect the two to agree in one go, so Biqiu Jian nodded: "Since this is the case, then I will wait for the reply of the two generals." ”

……

Biqiu Jian was taken out, and Ding Feng and Quan Cong immediately got together to discuss.

"Do you think this Cao Shuang came down, is it true or false?" Quan Cong asked.

"It should be true. Cao Shuang's hundreds of thousands of troops, the daily consumption of grain and grass is huge, without the support of Yecheng, Cao Shuang simply can't raise so many troops, but Cao Shuang and the Han army have a grudge against his father, if I were Cao Shuang, I would find another way. Ding Feng said.

"So what are we going to do?"

"What to do? This is a great opportunity! Didn't Cao Shuang refuse to surrender to Sima Yi's side? Let's immediately send a letter to Your Majesty, and ask Your Majesty to send 6 Xun generals to collect and surrender Cao Shuang and the hundreds of thousands of troops, which is a great merit, and the general can also use this to regain military power! Ding Feng said immediately.

"Good plan, with Cao Shuang and those hundreds of thousands of troops, the general will definitely be able to crush Sima Yi! My Jiangdong generals will regain their prestige again, and it is just around the corner! ”

……

Cao Shuang's Cao army has moved to the vicinity of Leling Port and is stationed, and the daily consumption of grain and grass. It is also provided by Leling, but this grain and grass is a daily supply, firstly, Leling's grain and grass are not sufficient, and secondly, it is to prevent Cao Shuang's army from fighting back.

And Cao Jun was calm, and there was no change, and after a few days of observation, Quan Cong and Ding Feng were relieved.

In order to prevent Sima Yi from interfering in it, Quan Cong and Ding Feng deliberately did not tell Sima Yi about Cao Shuang's surrender.

Sima Yi was scheming and sent someone to Leling to investigate, and knowing what happened, Sima Yi noticed that there was fraud in Cao Shuang's surrender. However, Sima Yi was not prepared to remind Quan Cong and Ding Feng, and with Quan Cong and Ding Feng's hatred of Sima Yi, Sima Yi's reminder would not be adopted by Quan Cong and Ding Feng.

However, Sima Yi still prepared a follow-up move, while sending people to monitor Leling's movements all the time, and on the other hand, ordering Zang Ai to lead a large number of sailors to patrol the sea surface in case of accidents.

……

Three days later, on a moonless night, Cao Shuang finally launched a surprise attack on Leling.

Quan Cong and Ding Feng had already relaxed their vigilance against Cao Shuang, and the Eastern Wu army's defense of Cao Shuang had also relaxed, and when Cao Shuang's surprise attack came, the Wu army did not react immediately. In addition, the Wu army in Leling was dominated by naval forces, and in the face of the 6th Army of Cao's army, which suddenly attacked, the battle immediately fell into a one-sided situation.

Cao Shuang's army of hundreds of thousands, the number of soldiers is far away from the defenders of Eastern Wu, one is defenseless, the other is prepared, and the war has ended overnight. The Leling Navy was defeated and fled in all directions, leaving countless warships, and Quan Cong and Ding Feng only escaped with more than 100 people.

……

Holding a thick booklet in his hand, Biqiu Jian came to Cao Shuang and said, "General, the results of the battle have been counted, and Leling's grain storage is enough for us for twenty days!" ”

"What about the warships? How many still work? ”

"Don't worry, the general can use most of the warships, but I counted them, and the sea ships in Leling, including sailors, can only hold more than 30,000 people."

"Only 30,000 people?" Cao Shuang's brows furrowed slightly, now according to this, Cao Shuang's hundreds of thousands of troops can only take away 30,000 people.

"Biqiu, you go and select 30,000 elite people immediately, let's get ready to go to sea! Remember quickly, we don't have much time. ”

"General, don't worry, I have sent my henchmen to select elite people."

……

Quan Cong and Ding Feng fled back to Sima Yi's camp in Hebei.

Inside the big tent. The two knelt in front of Sima Yi with a depressed look.

"Are you two guilty?" Sima Yi asked sharply.

"The last will be convicted." Quan Cong and Ding Feng said at the same time. This is a fact that Leling was lost, no wonder others, and the two of them can't admit their guilt if they want to.

"Okay, come on, take the two of them up, and wait for them!" Sima Yi waved his hand, and the guards came up to say that Quan Cong Ding Feng had taken him down.

"Come on, immediately beat the drum and raise the tent, I want soldiers to recapture Leling Port from Cao Shuang!"
