Chapter 69: The Dragon in the River
It turned out that Gan Ning had already foreseen that Cai Yi would make this move, so he just held the bow and arrow in his hand, and did not release the arrow, and when Cai Yi just bowed his head, Gan Ning was an arrow in the wind, right in the heart of Cai Yan's eyebrows, and Cai Yi died on the boat when he boarded.
Cai Mao looked at it from behind, her eyes were scarlet with anger, and she wanted to march towards Liu Feng! But before he could give the order, after Gan Ning killed Cai Mao, he had already rushed into Cai Mao's formation at high speed on the light boat, Gan Ning's bow was proficient, and under the bow and arrow, he shot down several sergeants next to Cai Mao in a short time, Cai Mao was also extremely flustered when he saw this, and had to bow his head to avoid his edge temporarily.
At this time, Liu Feng was not idle, and led the naval army to rush into Cai Mao's formation, while marching, he ordered all the archers on the ship to shoot a salvo towards Cai Mao's army, and Cheng Pu and Guan Yu on both sides were also battle-hardened people, seeing that Liu Feng had already caught Cai Mao off guard, he also waved the boat straight down, and attacked Cai Mao's ship formation together, rushing back and forth for a while.
Cai Mao only lowered his body to avoid Gan Ning, and saw Gan Ning walking away, so he stood up, and when he looked again, he saw that dozens of warships led by Liu Feng had already shocked his formation.
Seeing this situation, Cai Mao hurriedly stood on the boat, and successively passed down the general's orders, and the nearby ships got Cai Mao's generals, so they gradually stabilized their positions, and the naval army led by Liu Feng gradually fought in one place, but Liu Feng also saw some clues at this time, except for the ships standing side by side with Cai Mao in the front row, the rear were all the northern army led by Cao Cao, and the combat power was much worse than the original Jingzhou naval army led by Cai Mao, so Liu Feng ordered to avoid the ships in front as much as possible, and only rushed to the rear.
"General Ziwei, our army has few ships, if it is too aggressive, when Cai Mao reorganizes the ships and outflanks them, our army will be in danger!" At this time, Ling Tong was still supervising the battle with Liu Feng, seeing that Liu Feng was just sending a warship to the depths of the enemy ship, he couldn't help but persuade loudly, in his eyes, Liu Feng was also a person who was good at land warfare after all, and when he got to the water, it was inevitable that he would be negligent.
But Liu Feng smiled slightly, looked back at Cai Mao and the other front-row warships, and said to Ling Tong: "I want to see, how can Cai Mao outflank us and others?" ”
Ling Tong took a closer look in the direction pointed by Liu Feng, and saw that the big boat that Cai Mao was riding was slightly inclined at this time, and two or three boats adjacent to it were also the same, looking at it from a distance, he saw that everyone on Cai Mao's boat was rushing away, and even jumped directly into the river.
"It turns out that General Ziwei has already made arrangements!" Only now, Ling Tong was impressed by Liu Feng, he remembered that when Wei Yan came to report before, Liu Feng had been beside him for a long time, and then let him go, and his heart suddenly realized.
But Ling Tong still couldn't understand why Wei Yan scuttled the Cai Mao warship in such a short time, although the Jingzhou naval army was not as good as Jiangdong, but it was not a weak army, and the hull was hard, it was not a momentary effort, but at this time, the war was at a critical time, Ling Tong naturally inconvenient to ask in detail, so he had to suppress the doubts in his heart for the time being.
At this time, Cai Mao hurriedly mobilized the intact ships in the distance to his front in order to escape for his life, where did he still have the heart to command the 30,000 sailors to fight with Liu Feng, and Liu Feng had already rushed into the depths of the enemy, those northern soldiers, they were already afraid of the river, and they saw Cai Mao's ships slowly sinking from afar, and their hearts were all frightened, where was there still morale fighting, and they just wanted to return to the shore as soon as possible.
"General Ziwei, then Cai Mao is at a loss at this time, and I will definitely be able to capture him alive when I get close!" Ling Tong followed Liu Feng in the big ship, and there was not much chance to kill the enemy, and when he saw that Cai Mao was eager to transfer to the light boat next to him, he proposed to capture Cai Mao alive.
Then Liu Feng waved his hand again and again and said: "If you want to capture Cai Mao alive, you don't have this plan, I wanted to let him go back in embarrassment, don't worry about public performance, if you want to kill the enemy, why rush for a while?" ”
After hearing this, Ling Tong had no choice but to nod his head and say yes, but seeing that Gan Ning was leading the crowd to rush back and forth, and under the bow and arrow, I don't know how many Cao Cao's sailors died at his hands, so he was a little angry in his heart, and hugged his fists and said: "In this case, Tong also please lead a few light boats to kill the enemy!" ”
Liu Feng listened, but he waved his hand again and again, turned his head and looked straight, and said, "General Gongji, do you know why Feng asked you to come by name?" ”
When Ling Tong heard this, he was stunned, so he had to reply, "I don't know." ”
"I already know the enmity between Gan Ning and you, this time I led you and the other two to come, and sent Gan Ning to get off the boat to kill the enemy, that is, let you watch it on this boat, the two armies are facing each other, either you die, or I die, Xingba has shot how many Cao generals have been shot so far, even if he is afraid in his own heart, he doesn't know, if I sent General Gongji off the ship to kill the enemy, Gongji probably won't know about the enemy generals who died in their hands."
As soon as he said this, Liu Feng looked at Ling Tong deeply, only to see a thoughtful look on his face, obviously thinking in his heart.
"Born in troubled times, both go into battle to kill the enemy, it will definitely not have sympathy, if one day, the general and I meet on the battlefield, it should be the same, so I look at the general and the same age as the seal, I can't bear to be blinded by hatred, in vain delayed the good time in the future, so there is this, the seal is all here, how to get along with Xingba, all depends on the performance itself!"
After that, Liu Feng turned around and saw that Cai Mao had already arrived on a small boat at this time, so he took all the clothes off his body, changed into ordinary sergeant clothes, and hurriedly moved closer to the big boat behind.
At this time, Cao Cao's 30,000 sailors were killed by Liu Feng's three-way sergeants left and right, and they were already in a mess, losing nearly 10,000 people, and most of them jumped into the water and drowned.
At this point, Liu Feng did not advance again, and saw that Guan Yu and Cheng Pu were not far away, so he Mingjin withdrew his troops and turned his head to the east first.
Although Cao Cao had many soldiers, where did he dare to chase Liu Feng, he had to let him leave by boat, and saw Liu Feng and his subordinates disappear into the thick fog, so they all relaxed their hearts.
After withdrawing from the battlefield for about dozens of miles, Liu Feng stopped the ship, but Guan Yu only sent someone to report to Liu Feng, and then led the 1,000 Fan Shui army back to Fankou.
And Cheng Pu and Gan Ning both boarded Liu Feng's warship at this time, and their faces were full of joy.
"Although General Ziwei is young, he is quite proficient in the tactics of this naval army, and this battle can have this achievement thanks to General Ziwei!" Cheng Pu, who had some doubts about Liu Feng before, was the first to praise Liu Feng at this time!
