Chapter 233: The Battle in Jingnan

Although Pang Tong captured Lingling, the army did not enter the city, but continued to surround it in groups to confuse Cheng Pu.

In the big tent, Jiang Wan was invited by Pang Tong to sit opposite him.

Pang Tong said: "Gongzi has long heard of Gongyan's reputation, and when he left, he specially explained to Pang Tong, so that I must not hurt Gongyan when attacking the city. ”

Jiang Wan said: "I don't want President Yang to value Jiang Wan so much, it seems that Jiang Wan is not effective, but he can't." Jiang Wan shook his head, some sense of honor of being respected, and some frustration of losing the city.

Pang Tong said: "I heard that Liu Du and Xing Daorong colluded with Cheng Pu here, but I don't know if it's true? ”

"But it's true, it is said that after three days of appointment, Cheng Pu will lead troops to attack, but this time is not completely certain, if they really can't hold on, they have special contact information, and they can attack in advance." Jiang Wan naturally knows the inside story.

Pang Tong got the information and knew that this matter still fell on Xing Daorong, so he ordered someone to take Xing Daorong.

Xing Daorong entered the account, Pang Tong personally released his fu, and said good words to appease, and Xing Daorong also relented.

Pang Tong said: "Please also ask the general to teach me, how can I deceive Cheng Pu into coming out to attack?" ”

Xing Daorong exclaimed: "You want to ambush halfway? ”

Pang Tong said: "It's not a halfway attack, if it's a halfway attack, but just wait for it to attack, I want to lure it to rob the camp and catch turtles in the urn." However, this also requires the cooperation of the general. ”

Next, Pang Tong Xing Daorong began to think carefully.

Jiuzhi Mountain, the giant trees in the mountains are towering to the sky, and if you hide in the meantime, even if it is a flying ball, it is helpless, but Cheng Pu is very relieved.

If you want to say that in Sun Quan's camp, who knows the Chenhe Chamber of Commerce best, it is naturally Cheng Pu, except for the Sky Cannon, the Flying Ball and the telescope, Cheng Pu knows.

Cheng Pu also had a telescope in his hand, and through it in the past two days, Cheng Pu found at least three flying balls passing overhead.

Cheng Pu was waiting for the last opportunity, but a scout came to report, saying that the Lingling Army had come to see him, and Cheng Pu came out in person, but saw that it was Xing Daorong who had arrived.

At this moment, Xing Daorong did not ride a horse, but traveled lightly, and even the sergeant only brought two people, Cheng Pu knew that it was he who said about the flying ball to Xing Daorong, so he didn't dare to be careless.

Cheng Pu said: "General Xing actually arrived in person, but the situation of the war has changed. ”

Xing Daorong said while drinking water: "It's really there, General Cheng, I know that my Lingling garrison and the people have been defending for two days, and I have suffered heavy losses, and now there are only 3,000 soldiers and horses left." ”

Cheng Pu said: "There are many people on the other side, this is normal, but I don't know why General Xing, as the chief general of the defenders, how can he go out of the city in person today?" ”

Xing Daorong said: "This morning, the attack was until noon, and the people and horses on both sides were tired, but a certain person suddenly had an idea. ”

Cheng Pu was puzzled, Xing Daorong said: "A certain Guan Pang leads the army, extremely tight, if General Cheng attacks it tomorrow, I am afraid that it may not be complete, if it is not robbed after midnight tonight, and it is not prepared, General Cheng and the military horses in our city will be attacked in two ways, and the other army will be broken." ”

When Cheng Pu heard it, it was a good plan, if he acted at night, he would not be afraid of the opponent's flying ball detection.

So the two sides agreed on it, and Xing Daorong hurriedly returned.

Cheng Pu figured out the pattern, in order to avoid being discovered, the flying ball disappeared after sunset, so Cheng Pu picked up his military horse at this time and began to march.

More than 100 miles away, which is equivalent to more than 30 kilometers now, can be reached in the middle of the night, and then it will be a divine soldier from the sky.

Cheng Pu thought while marching, this time he had to be ashamed, he was captured alive by Yang Xi last time, and he lost face, but he had to find it back in this battle.

After walking for half the night, Cheng Pu didn't feel tired at all, only felt very excited.

To Lingling City, Cheng Pu sent the spies first, and after a while, the spies reported that the lights in Pang Tong's camp had not been extinguished, but the guards had been loosened a lot.

Cheng Pu nodded, when a normal person arrives at this time, where is there a reason not to sleep, so he does not doubt him.

At this time, there was a torch shaking on the head of the city, Cheng Pu took a closer look, it was the signal that Yu Xing Daorong had agreed, and shaking the fire five times from side to side was normal.

Cheng Pu was overjoyed and ordered the whole army to move forward slowly, just waiting for the code from the opposite side.

Half an hour later, Cheng Pu saw that there were torches on the opposite side, so he no longer hesitated and ordered the whole army to enter.

Killed to the Pang Tong camp, but did not see half of the camp reaction, Cheng Pu was overjoyed, the closer to one point, the closer to success.

When Cheng Pu looked at the distance opposite, there was already a shouting of killing, so he was the first to lead and rushed into the Pang Tong camp, when Cheng Pu opened the first camp to see, it was empty, Cheng Pu was shocked.

Without waiting for Cheng Pu to react, there was a sound of sneering all around, not accompanied by the sound of explosion, but Pang Tong used gunpowder and surrounded the entire camp with fire.

Cheng Pu hurriedly led the army out of the tent, but found that the flames were soaring into the sky, and in all directions, only the firelight and the crossbow arrows that kept coming were seen. Cheng Pu's heart sank, and he wanted to lead the army to rush out, but Pang Tong had already surrounded him, and when Cheng Pu looked at it again, Xing Daorong actually led the army to rush and kill his own army.

Only then did Cheng Pu understand that he had fallen into the trap of the other party.

Helpless, in the chaos of the army, most of the military horses abandoned their weapons and surrendered, Cheng Pu only led twenty or thirty cavalry remnants, rushed left and right, and saw the sergeants behind him fall one by one, Cheng Pu looked up to the sky and screamed, pulled out the long sword in his waist, and was about to commit suicide, when suddenly a cold arrow flew and knocked down Cheng Pu's heavy hand long sword.

When Cheng Pu fixed his eyes, it was Pang Tong who made his own move, and he was already surrounded by dozens of troops and horses at this time.

Cheng Pu no longer resisted, and Pang Tong asked someone to tie it up first, and then clean up the results.

That night, Pang Tong raised the tent and asked someone to bring Cheng Pu and untie the rope in person.

Cheng Pu said: "If General Pang wants to kill a certain person, he can only kill him, and if he wants Cheng to surrender, he can't do it." ”

Pang Tong said: "General Cheng misunderstood, Gongzi had already ordered when he left, when attacking Lingling, General Cheng would come to the rescue, and he was specially instructed to order Pang Tong not to hurt half of the general's hair, how dare Pang Tong move General Cheng." ”

Cheng Pu was disheartened, Yang Xi was thousands of miles away, and he had already calculated today's situation, how difficult it was to compete with him.

Pang Tong continued: "Gongzi also said that if General Cheng wants to go, let him go, and he can't be stopped, but there is a chance that General Cheng will be disheartened. Gongzi said that if General Cheng wants to live in seclusion, he can go to Jiangxia with Pang Tong, and Gongzi has already prepared a mansion and other living materials for the general, and Lu Bu's family and Yuan Shu's family are also there, and life is very comfortable. ”

Cheng Pu was really disheartened, he was captured twice, lost face, and returned to Jiaozhou, how could he look up and see people, let alone continue to lead troops, but when he saw his former colleagues, he was afraid that even if he said something louder, he needed to think about it.

In the end, Cheng Pu finally decided to return to Jiangxia with Pang Tong.

However, it was said that Pang Tong took Lingling, crossed Jiuzhi Mountain non-stop, and marched to Guiyang County, Guiyang County has a small population, and the military horses have long been taken out by Cheng Pu, and now they are all empty cities, Pang Tong easily took them, and it was not until March that they were all pacified.

Yang Xi's strategy to Pang Tong was to ask Liu Du to continue to be the governor of Lingling, Jiang Wan to be the governor of Guiyang, and leave 3,000 soldiers and horses to guard the Xijing Ancient Road.

The management methods of Guiyang and Lingling cannot be too radical, because these two places basically do not have the infiltration foundation of the Chenhe Chamber of Commerce, so they can only come step by step.

If it is suddenly announced to the major families at this time that slavery will be abolished and the code of the Chenhe Chamber of Commerce will be executed, it is estimated that one-third of the family will have to be killed.
