Chapter 544 - Fighting Jiang Xia to the Death

Ling is a veteran of Jiangdong, and his current status in Jiangdong can even be said to be directly catching up with the three elders of Jiangdong back then.

He is a veteran who followed Sun Ce to fight the world, and he should have died in the hands of Gan Ning, but because of Liu Xie's appearance, he is still alive and well until now....

Even on the battlefield of Qingzhou and the battlefield of Liaodong, he experienced several near-deaths and survived...

To be honest, Ling Cao shouldn't be just a small partial general for so many years, after all, even his son Ling Tong is now a famous fierce general in Jiangdong, and he is a partial general.

But he's still like that!

But there is no way around it.

Because even this partial general is a position that Sun Quan asked for from Cao Cao, no matter how high... He's not qualified!

Over the years, Liu Xie himself had his own court, Cao Cao also set up a court by himself, Liu Bei was protected by Liu Xie, and the subordinates of the three of them had their own official promotion methods.

Even if the status of the generals under Liu Bei is generally not high, if Liu Bei asks for it, Liu Xie will generally not allow it.

But Sun Quan is different, this guy belongs to the kind that his grandmother doesn't love his uncle and doesn't love, and no one in the two courts wants to see him.

Therefore, for so many years, even the exploits of Jiangdong such as Zhou Yu and Lu Su, and even the elders of the state, are nothing more than that.

Today, in the water village outside Xiakou, Ling Cao is ready to rest, and as he gets older, Ling Cao should actually be like some veterans.

Cultivate at home in peace, and no longer worry about those messy things.

But Ling Cao, like many veterans, felt that he had been fighting desperately for a lifetime.

This is old, old, not only did he die on the battlefield, but he even had to die on the sickbed!

It's just nonsense!

Therefore, even Zhou Yu and Sun Quan didn't agree very much, he still insisted on coming to this Xiakou with soldiers and horses, and he insisted on going to war...

But fortunately, the people in Jiangdong also understood that Ling Cao was old, so after Ling Cao followed, he directly let him and his son Ling Tong lead an army.

And after marching into Jiangxia, seeing Ling Cao's appearance of rushing to kill, Ling Tong was also really frightened.

Afraid that something would happen to this old father who didn't make people feel at ease, in the end, Ling Tong directly ordered Ling Cao's guards to look at his father.

Then let Ling Cao be stationed directly in his rear, and let Ling Cao guarantee the rear of the army.

As a veteran, how can Ling Cao still not know his son's thoughts, nothing more than wanting to ensure his own safety.

What else to defend the rear of the army ... This rear is their Jiangdong, what else needs to be defended?

Ling Cao scoffed at this, but he didn't continue to refute, he knew that it was not easy for him to appear on the battlefield, if he continued.... That's really a shame.

With this kind of thought, Ling Cao was stationed at the rear of the army on weekdays, although he didn't have many soldiers and horses, and no one thought that he would be in any danger or encounter any problems here.

However, he still unswervingly patrols every day... Until the arrival of Gan Ning!

Gan Ning may not have thought that he would encounter such a strange soldier and horse, there are not many soldiers on patrol, and he is listless, looking at it is to deal with errands, let him shoot easily.

But along the way, he met several groups.

It's like this, as if someone has spied on his methods, but after arranging it, his soldiers and soldiers don't care at all...

"Hiss...."Gan Ning, who couldn't help but take a long breath of cold air, seemed to be aware of it.

"It seems that this Ling Cao still has some ability, wait for it to be careful, and then rush directly with me to kill it, let's do it today.... I'm going to kill them all! ”

Under Gan Ning's call, the soldiers also nodded silently, and these old soldiers under Gan Ning also seemed to see Gan Ning's physical state now.

I want to do everything I can to help him fight this last battle....

In Ling Cao's camp, Ling Cao, who had just inspected the camp of the Water Village, did not return to his bed.

He just looked at the bright moonlight on the deck, looked at the dark sky, and his whole mind was even empty.

He didn't know what he was thinking, but he liked it....

After being speechless for a while, Ling Cao finally slowly withdrew all his expressions and thoughts, and then rubbed his head and began to think about preparing to rest.

"This man is old.... I just can't help but feel a little ......"

Ling Cao, who couldn't help but feel a little emotional just now, suddenly stopped his steps, and then turned to look around.

His mind was empty just now, and he had a large camp and few garrisons here on weekdays, so he didn't care much, and the silence had always been quiet.

But now, after feeling the silence coming from all sides, his whole expression became very bad.

"Someone!"

"In!"

The guards next to him immediately ran over after hearing the call, "What does the general command...."

"You go and see if there's anything wrong with the camp right away... Let's wait for me to continue to patrol around! ”

Ling Cao felt a sense of unease, and just in case, he decided to investigate it himself.

But now Ling Cao found out that the problem was too late, half an hour ago, Gan Ning had already entered the camp.

The unusually empty battalion was left to Ling Cao, no matter how much he held on and patrolled, it was meaningless.

In Gan Ning's eyes, it was full of loopholes, and in the end, he easily infiltrated, and with his superb archery skills, he shot and killed the patrolling soldiers and horses all the way.

When Na Ling got off the boat, he happened to be hit head-on by Gan Ning.

Looking at Gan Ning with a sinister smile on his face, Ling Cao wanted to exclaim at first, but....

"Go!"

With a soft shout, arrows flew out and plunged directly into Ling Cao's throat, completely suppressing all his voices.

After that, things were much easier, under Gan Ning's rush and killing, the battalion quickly fell, and then through torture, Gan Ning also knew the arrangement of the Jiangdong Army.

When he heard that the soldiers and horses not far from this "rear camp" were Ling Tong....

The smile on Gan Ning's face was even brighter.

"The revenge of killing my father is not shared... It seems that I can't let you live! ”

"All the soldiers obey the order, and now at once... Continue to rush and kill with me, take advantage of the Jiangdong soldiers and horses not reacting, and kill all the way with Ben General! ”

.................

Gan Ning's charge is still continuing, and the Jiangdong army on the other side is still ignorant.

In Jiangdong Lingtong's military tent, a personal guard couldn't help but step forward and whisper when he looked at Ling Tong, who was still reading with a lamp on.

"General, it's not too early, or let's rest early."

In the eyes of that general, this General Ling Tong is not just a young general, he is brave and brave.

His father is a veteran of Jiangdong, and he has been fighting on the battlefield all year round, and he is also liked by the lord of Jiangdong!

When he became an adult, he was famous for his bravery, and then after his father was slightly old, he took over the military power in his father's hands, and even expanded his own soldiers and horses.

After that, they followed their princes to fight in the south and the north, fighting and never retreating.

When attacking, he must be the vanguard in every battle, and when he retreats, he will save the prince from difficulties.

The battle of his Lingtong's fame was that when he faced Zhang Liao, who was called the nightmare of Jiangdong, he dared not hesitate to step forward and leap to meet the enemy.

You must know that Zhang Liao beat them Jiangdong back then, and they had no power to fight back, even those veterans in Jiangdong didn't dare to move when they faced Zhang Liao back then.

But only this Ling Tong, in the subsequent battles, still dared to fight with him, and was even able to really fight with him.

It can even be said that Ling Tong has regained some morale for Jiangdong on Zhang Liao's head.....

Over the years, Ling Tong has repeatedly fought on the battlefield, and he has made many military exploits, and he has rushed to the position of a partial general at a young age, and his status is the same as that of his father.

And the prestige, but far beyond his father Ling Cao, is in this Jiangdong land.... No one can disagree...

The most important thing is that he doesn't fight at his age this year, he is only in his thirties!

Young, brave, loyal .... Ling Tong's ability is beyond doubt, and his prestige in the army is needless to say.

The only thing that made people feel uneasy was that since the year before, Ling Tong's body didn't know what was going on.

His father was still an old man, but he was starting to have all kinds of problems with his body.

In a nutshell..... is getting weaker and weaker, so Sun Quan helped him find many, many doctors.

But no matter how good these doctors' medical skills were, in the face of Ling Tong's body, they all shook their heads helplessly in the end.

According to them, Ling Tong's problem was because of the recurrence of his old injuries after all these years of fighting.

Fortunately, in the past few years, the prince and the prince no longer sent troops on their own, but began to govern within Jiangdong, which made Ling Tong slow down.

At this time, looking at the guards beside him with a bit of reverence and worry in their eyes, Ling Tong just smiled slightly.

"Over the years, my health has become worse and worse, and I always feel that time is in a hurry, and it is always not enough.

Now that he is still in the prime of life, he is a good student to study military books.

Not only do we want to lead by example, but we also want to write down these skills and leave them to future generations as a legacy..."

Ling Tong finished speaking with a smile on his face, but he couldn't help but feel a little short of breath when he was halfway through speaking, and then he eased up for a while.

He knew that his time was really running out.

He has never been afraid of death, if he was afraid of death, he would not be able to make such a reputation!

But he also has an elderly father.... Ling Tong's persistence over the years was just to let his father have a good death.

He can't let his father send a white-haired person to a black-haired person!

As soon as he thought of this, Ling Tong's eyes couldn't help but be a little dark, but they were also a little firm.

Even if it was for his father Ling Cao to die well, he had to work hard to send his father away....

Thinking of this, Ling Tong's face slowly returned to normal, and then he picked up the military book again, looking at the contents on it, feeling more and more satisfied in his heart.

Over the years, he has done everything he should have done, the prince has paid more and more attention to him, Jiangdong's colleagues respect him, and his two sons are well-behaved and obedient...

It can be said that Ling Tong felt that although it was quite hard for outsiders to look at him in this life, and he had been fighting constantly all his life, he himself was already very satisfied.

If there's anything else to complain about, it's like... I still haven't been able to really become famous in the world, so that my father can be satisfied.....

"Gan Xingba, General Zhou once said that if you appear, you will definitely pass by this place and cut off the back road of Lusu...

Our father and son have been waiting for you for so long, why haven't you shown up yet?

Father is cautious, he patrols the rear, and if there is any movement from you, then he will definitely warn me and others.

When the time comes, my father will hold you back, and then I will pounce on you directly, and I can kill you completely!

Kill you, come and my father and son will be famous all over the world...

If you're afraid... I'm really sorry for your prestige! ”

The book of war was in his hand, but Ling Tong's thoughts didn't know when he thought of other places, and his eyes became deeper and deeper.

But Ling Tong didn't know that the person he was waiting for to become famous had now directly killed his most beloved father!

At this time, he had already opened the camp gate of his water village with seven feather arrows.

Gan Ning shoots like a dragon, walking wantonly on a small boat like a swimming dragon in the night, and he has a group of elite sailors who are definitely called elite sailors.

Manipulating Zhou Ji to shoot the scouts outside first, followed by lurking into the periphery of the camp, shooting the guards at the same time, swimming into the camp with water ghosts, and easily opening the gate of the water village...

This set of actions, it is really smooth, showing the demeanor of the first water general under his Liu Xie!

"Kill!"

When the shouting and killing sound appeared, Ling Tong, who was reading a book, also stood up suddenly.

There was an unconcealable shock in his eyes, and a hint of panic.

He didn't expect... Now it will be a problem with your own camp!

What that meant, Ling Tong didn't dare to think much about it.

The ships in the water village surged, and a large number of ships began to move, and Ling Tong immediately walked to the deck neatly.

"Buzz!"

At the moment when Ling Tong just appeared, his ears moved slightly, and he heard a familiar sound, and his face changed and he immediately retreated to the side.

"Poof!"

A feather arrow pierced directly into the heart of the guards behind Ling Tong, if he hadn't dodged just now, he would have been seriously injured if he didn't die after this arrow.

"Ling Tong, today your grandfather Gan sent you to see that dead ghost father, come and die!"

With the appearance of the feather arrow, an arrogant laugh and roar also appeared, and Gan Ning, who was attacking the camp at night with soldiers and horses, also appeared in front of Ling Tong at the same time.

At the same time, a flagpole was erected directly above Gan Ning's warship, and a few torches were even lit under the flagpole to illuminate the things above.

The top of the flagpole... Don't think about it, it's naturally Ling Tongyi's father, a veteran of Jiangdong, Ling Cao!

"Gan Ning..."Ling Tong, who was originally quite calm, saw Gan Ning's appearance at this time, and then saw his father on the flagpole, who was dead.

His face immediately turned red, and his chest rose and fell violently, and his whole body was about to explode at this moment.

"Kill it! Kill this thief, you must kill him! ”

The revenge of killing the father is not shared!

After so many years, Ling Tong had grown to such an amazing point, and the moment he saw Gan Ning appear in front of him with his father's head, he was still the same desperate young man.

It was he who made all his persistence come to naught....

It was he who made all the efforts he had made useless.

Kill him! This guy has to be killed!

Ling Tong's desperate rush naturally fell into Gan Ning's calculations, a short confrontation, an unhesitating withdrawal, a frantic pursuit, and finally...

"Siege and kill Ling Tong!"

In the chaotic water village, Ling Tong couldn't imagine that Gan Ning would dare to set up an ambush in this environment in this situation.

The warships rushing from all directions, the arrows that flew over one by one, the Zhuge crossbow that Liu Xie gave him and the Jinfan battalion under his command, this kind of power directly made the guards around Ling Tong turn into hedgehogs.

Soon, he himself blocked the deck with several arrows, and with the last of his strength, Ling Tong wanted to jump into the river, seeking that slim glimmer of life.

But...

"Jingle Bell~"

The brass bell rang like a beautiful music, and the sound of chains came from behind him.

At this moment, Ling Tong smiled bitterly and closed his eyes painfully in the sound of the whistling wind....

In the autumn of the twenty-fifth year of Jian'an, the Xiakoushui Battle Ganning counterattacked the Jiangdong general Ling Tong Ling Cao father and son who ambushed him.

After that, the army did not hesitate to immediately continue to rush over.

When Lu Su, another general in Jiangdong, heard this, he immediately reacted and prepared to lead his troops to withdraw from the battlefield and find a new foothold.

But before he could react, a series of wolf smoke slowly rose from behind, and Gao Xiang and Fu Kuang, who saw the wolf smoke appearing, no longer had any hesitation.

"Kill!"

In the roar of the two people, the army pounced directly on Lu Su, biting him to the death, not allowing him to have any possibility of escaping...

In fact, they didn't expect that at this time, Liu Xie would send them any reinforcements.

I couldn't imagine that Gan Ning still had such a ability, and in the midst of many obstacles, he rushed all the way from Ba County to his current position.

The two Jiangdong generals who were supposed to ambush him were now killed by him.

At this moment, everyone couldn't help but be stunned.

Gan Ning's ability was beyond Gao Xiang and Fu Kuang's expectations, and at the same time, Lu Su was directly stunned.

Seeing that the wolf smoke in the rear was getting closer and closer, and the scout came to report that Gan Ning was close at hand, Lu Su knew that there was a big problem with his plan.

He didn't know the situation in Nanjun at this time, but he knew that Gan Ning of Jiangxia County was taken by surprise now, so he had no way to continue to block Jiangxia.

In order to preserve hope, Lu Su also had to break his wrist.

First of all, the general Dai Lie led more than half of the army to block the charge of Gao Xiang and Fu Kuang, and he personally led many other soldiers and horses to prepare to evacuate first.

Go to Nanjun to meet Zhou Yu and then plan for the future.

Kelusu had only arranged the soldiers and horses here, and he directly encountered Gan Ning's attack on the way.

Na Gan Ning let the main force ignite the wolf smoke and beacon fire all the way, creating the illusion that he was pressing step by step, and joined Gao Xiang and others to attack together.

But he led five hundred daredevils to take the lead directly on the fast ships such as the ship, and went around to the road where Lu Su retreated to Nanjun.

Sure enough, this battle ambushed Lu Su squarely.

"Lu Zijing, Gan Ning is here!"

As a meeting gift, Gan Ning's cold arrow hit Lu Su in the heart, causing Lu Su, who was full of horror and disbelief, to fall into the boiling river.

Under the onslaught of Gao Xiang and Fu Kuang on the other side, Gao Xiang personally boarded the enemy ship and beheaded Dai Lie, the general of Jiangdong.

This battle, another big victory!

And Jiangdong Zhou Yu's back road was also completely blocked....

After the news reached the city of Gangneung, things became even more weird....

β€œ.... Gan Ning set up an ambush halfway, and the cold arrow wounded my general, causing the arrow in his heart to fall into the river, and now he doesn't know whether he is alive or dead.

Fear.... I'm afraid it's a lot of bad luck!

Please also ask General Zhou to prepare early! ”

Outside Jiangling City, Zhou Yu listened to the battle report brought by the scouts under Nalu Su's command, and his face couldn't help but turn blue and red.

"General..."Xu Sheng on the side couldn't help but be a little worried after seeing Zhou Yu like this, "I'll wait...."

The generals' faces were extremely ugly at this time, not only because of this matter of Lu Su, but also because of the matter of Lu Su and Ling Tong, even though they felt grief.

But what happened ahead made them feel hopeless.

Not long ago, LΓΌ Meng's defeated army retreated, and at the same time brought back the news of Guan Yu's large-scale attack, and by this time he had calmed all the problems on the line of Xiangyang and Fancheng.

The army marched into the South County.

As the commander of the partial division, Cheng Pu had already gone in the direction of Yiling Mountain Road at this time, which was Cheng Pu's desperate attempt to rescue Quanzong after defeating Wu Yi.

Otherwise, when Guan Yu arrives, Quan Zong will be completely blocked.

The news here is not over yet, and the news that Deng Ai of Jiaozhou suddenly retreated and returned to Jingnan also appeared, which is to be three-sided... Gangneung is surrounded on all sides!

Li Yan Fu Wei... Zhang Yan and Yan Yan in Jiaozhou, plus Guan Yu who returned to the south, and now Gan Ning, who broke through Jiangxia County.

There are Jingzhou troops on all sides, this is a big trap that has been premeditated a long time ago!

The previous stalemate, the previous dispatch of troops was only for today.

Even if Zhou Yu understood it very well, he still couldn't completely break the situation, and in the end he could only go to extinction.

It seems that Liu Bei is undoubtedly the winner.

And they are undoubtedly the losers who did not break the deadlock....
