Chapter 360: Breakout
.lΔ
The sound of the sonorous and powerful weapon polishing clearly spread to the city, making the Wu soldiers in the city tremble.
Gan Ning looked at the big banner under Yiling City, and everywhere he looked was the dazzling "Cao" character big flag. Gan Ning longed to be able to see a different flag, but the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment, and Gan Ning did not find any other flags that Cao Zi accidental.
"Who is that person?" Gan Ning looked at Cao Hong's army under the city wall like a tide, and his mind was full of thoughts about the one who appeared last night: "Is he a human or a ghost, the army under this city has more than 100,000 people, how did that person bring so many troops unknowingly." β
Where did Gan Ning know that Sima Yi had summoned all the soldiers who had fled between Chibi and Nanjun, and naturally brought over an army of 100,000 without knowing it.
"General, Yiling City has been besieged and can't be drained, it's just... It's justβ" The adjutant general stopped talking.
"Just what?" Ganning asked.
"It's just that the enemy is besieging but not attacking, but I don't know why?" the lieutenant general wondered.
"Besiege without attacking? The enemy's strength is ten times that of mine......" Gan Ning patted his head, and suddenly remembered that when he was a pirate in the past, he often met those rich businessmen, so he detained him and let his family spend a lot of money to ransom him.
"In that case, what is Cao Hong for? No, Cao Hong could never think of such a scheme, so this person is for ......" Gan Ning suddenly seemed to remember something.
"Metropolitan Governor ......" Gan Ning thought of this, and couldn't help but regret it.
"Quick, quick, quickly send someone to stop the Metropolitan Governor......" Gan Ning was already so frightened that he couldn't speak
"What's wrong? What's wrong? General. Gan Ning's excitement almost scared the deputy general.
"Send someone to stop the Metropolitan Governor, and don't come to the aid of Yiling, otherwise I'm in danger in Dongwu." Go and ......," Gan Ning roared.
"But the outside of this city has been surrounded by Cao Hong, can we kill it?" asked the adjutant general.
"Break through! Break through! Break through quickly! Don't drag the Metropolitan Governor and our Dongwu back. Gan Ning hurriedly said: "As long as we come before the Metropolitan Governor arrives, it is never too late to highlight it." β
When the lieutenant heard this, he dared to delay, and immediately summoned three thousand soldiers.
Gan Ning looked at the three thousand elite soldiers, these three thousand soldiers were very guilty of being in danger because of themselves, and they said: "Brothers, I'm sorry for you, you are in danger because of my appearance, but now our Dongwu is in danger, life and death, it all depends on whether we can break through today, please everyone." Today's battle to the death is a victory even if you rush out of one person and one horse. Do you hear that?"
"Yes. General!" said three thousand elite soldiers who stepped on their horses together.
Gan Ning raised the big knife, knowing that if this news could not be sent, then Zhou Yu would be in danger, and if Zhou Yu was in danger, the entire Eastern Wu would collapse.
Just in case, Gan Ning carefully selected a few clever soldiers and changed into the military uniforms left by Cao Hong in the city. To these people: "If we fail to break out of the encirclement, you should be able to get out of the chaos and quickly go to Nanjun to report to the governor." β
"Squeak. The gates opened.
Seeing that the gate of Yiling was wide open, the soldiers under Cao Hong's tent also quieted down, holding their breath and concentrating, watching how many soldiers and horses would rush out of the city gate.
There was a dead silence outside the city of Yiling.
Gan Ning's 3,000 elite soldiers, when they saw Cao Hong's army densely packed outside the city, they were scared off half of them.
"For the sake of Soochow, for the sake of the Metropolitan Governor, fight to the death. Gan Ning raised the big knife in his hand to cheer everyone on.
"For the sake of Soochow, for the sake of the Metropolitan Governor, fight to the death. "Three thousand elite soldiers roared to cheer themselves up.
"Kill. Shouting, urging the war horse under the crotch, the horse took the lead to go out of Yiling and entered Cao Hong's camp.
In the formation of Cao's army, a horse galloped out to meet Gan Ning.
"Nameless junior!" Gan Ning smiled contemptuously, the sword flashed, and the war horse under his crotch let out a roar, without the slightest stagnation, the enemy general who was alive and well at the previous moment, became a dead ghost without a head in the next second.
The war horse under the crotch galloped wildly, and the big knife in Gan Ning's hand also swept all the way, like chopping vegetables, and Cao Hong's soldiers were killed and wounded. The "innate demon skill" in the body protects the body, and among the thousands of troops, no one can get close to it.
This big knife danced into a silver light, stained with half of the bones and tendons. Blood soaked Gan Ning's armor, and the three thousand soldiers behind him were already getting fewer and fewer. But Cao Hong's army around him is getting more and more, and it seems that he will never be able to kill it.
Seeing that the three thousand elite soldiers were getting fewer and fewer, Gan Ning gritted his teeth and said angrily: "Withdraw." β
All 3,000 soldiers and horses withdrew to Yiling City.
"This Gan Ning is also a famous general in Eastern Wu, shouldn't he stick to waiting for help in this case?"
Sima Yi sneered, how could those soldiers who took advantage of the chaos to escape Sima Yi's eyes.
Inside the South County Castle.
"What? Where did Cao Hong get so many people?" Zhou Yu couldn't help but exclaim.
"No, no, are you saying that Cao Hong used the strategy of "inviting the king into the urn" to trap General Gan Ning in Yiling? This is not like Cao Hong's style?" Zhou Yu asked.
Lu Meng said: "General Gan Ning also said that this was not Cao Hong's plan, that day of fierce fighting, General Gan Ning saw with his own eyes that there was an extra mysterious person in Cao Hong's army, and the general told him before leaving, this person's plan was to run for the governor of the capital." Please also ask the Metropolitan Governor not to put himself at risk. β
Zhou Yu couldn't help but sigh: "Gan Xingba is my general in Eastern Wu. How can you not save it?"
"This person is vicious and ruthless. The Metropolitan Governor is still careful. Why don't I lead a group of soldiers and horses to Yiling and rescue General Gan Ning. Lu Meng said.
Zhou Yu shook his head and said: "Since this mysterious person has issued a war letter to me, then I, Zhou Yu, have no reason to avoid it, I want to see where this person is sacred?"
"Zhou Tai ......"
"The last general, what do you command?" Zhou Tai said.
"Let you be the vanguard, lead 3,000 soldiers and horses, go to Yiling, and wait for my army to arrive, you must not act rashly, Cao Hong's army has a master to help. Zhou Yu commanded.
"Commanded. Zhou Tai did not hesitate to receive Zhou Yu's general order.
"Who will it be?" Zhou Yu muttered to himself, in his heart, Guo Jia is dead, and in Cao Cao's camp, I am afraid that there will be no one with more wisdom than ordinary people.
Duan Dahu already has Zhuge Liang, if Cao Cao has this person again, it will be very unfavorable to Dongwu and himself, and the day of unifying the world is even more distant.
Thinking of this, I can't help but look worried.
"Metropolitan Governor ......," Lu Meng's words pulled Zhou Yu back from his thoughts.
Zhou Yu coughed lightly twice, adjusted his thoughts, and said, "Let Lu Meng guard Nanjun, and the rest of the people will set off tonight." I'm going to see, who the hell is this man?"
