Ding Feng is still too young!

He was young and successful, but he could not withstand too many temptations, and the heart in his chest that longed for glory was pulling him from time to time. Sometimes, this kind of traction is an opportunity, but sometimes it is a trap.

Inspired by Ding Feng's words, soldiers eager to capture the enemy ships rushed to the sunken ship in Jingzhou, which was rushed to the dead corner. At this moment, they did not know that there was a danger getting closer.

The weeds are desolate, and by the Parrot Island, the circling curve in this area is the most tortuous section in the middle reaches of the Yangtze River. It is known as the "Nine-Curves" and the rushing river water is divided into two left and right here, and then gently bypasses the deserted island where birds and grasses grow, and then flows downward and runs straight towards Jiangxia.

The floating boat that floated upstream arrived here and was slowly circling into a dead corner, which just created conditions for Ding Feng and the others.

"Why is this ship so heavy? It can't be dragged to death!" A Wu Zun, who was talking softly in Wu, jumped out of the river and pushed the ship while cursing.

"Hurry, don't be slow." Ding Feng shouted.

As long as the overturned ship was pushed to the beach, Ding Feng could go back and recruit soldiers to renovate these wrecks. This was an unexpected surprise for Gao Chong Shui Army, who lacked large warships.

"Who is it-?" Suddenly, a soldier who was rushing to go into the water at the front exclaimed.

Before he finished speaking, he could only hear a scream of "ah". Only a few circles of vortexes were left at the soldiers who had just made a sound, and then a pool of blood rose on the surface of the river.

"There is an enemy?" Wu Zu, who was closest to the nearest, changed his face and shouted.

In the river, water splashed everywhere, and suddenly several black shadows jumped out, holding bright short swords in their hands. Ding Feng's troops, who were not as good as guard, did not expect that there would be an enemy in the water. Dozens of soldiers who jumped into the river first were killed in a moment.

"Let me come over!" Seeing the sudden change, Ding Feng's eyes slashed and shouted in a deep voice.

Before the remaining soldiers who had time to jump off the river heard the call, they quickly gathered towards Ding Feng.

Ding Feng's shout exposed the target. After judging that Ding Feng was the leader, the shadows surrounded Ding Feng one after another. In an instant, there was a burst of shouting killing on the river.

"Whose subordinates are you?" Ding Feng pulled out two short swords that were slashing and kept roaring.

A strong young man smiled coldly and said, "Ding Feng, you can hear it before he dies. I am Fu Tong, the governor of the Jingnan Navy, and I am Fu Tong."

After saying that, the knife was like thunder, mixed with the sound of the wind, and it was like a slash and slashing to take Ding Feng.

Ding Feng snorted coldly and stood up to fight. When it comes to single-handed fight, Ding Feng was not afraid of any opponent. Even a person like Gan Ning who was better than him in the face of Ding Feng's desperate fighting spirit, he could only give in temporarily. But Fu Tong was different. His tactics were no different from Ding Feng. You slashed with one knife and I stomped back with one knife. Both of them were fighting with no chance. After a few round trips, they were all red in their bodies, but no one was willing to retreat and admit defeat.

Before the battle, no one expected that the two men would be the same as themselves. In the docking of each move, Ding Feng and Fu Tong couldn't help but feel a little sympathy of mutual appreciation.

"I think the general is also a hero who is not afraid of death. Why not know the times and surrender to me?" Fu Tong pulled back and said.

Therefore, every year after that, the celebration banquet in Cai's mansion attracted the attention of almost all the gentry officials in Jingxiang. The existence of in-laws made the relationship between Cai and Liu Biao closer, which gave the Cai's unique status. Almost all the children of the gentry who wanted to make a name for themselves in Jingzhou would go to Caizhou to clear their relationship before seeking an official position, and the celebration banquet was undoubtedly the best opportunity to get close.

However, this year's celebration is unique.

The originally joyful celebration changed the flavor because of an urgent document, which was the urgent letter of Huang Zu, the prefect of Jiangxia.

In the thick high wall with bluestone horns in the Cai family, the soldiers guarding the door blocked the crowds who came to congratulate the wedding outside, and only officials who were ordered to enter could enter.

In late November autumn evening, the soft light of the sunset brings warm light gold to the bluestone tiles.

In the extraordinary hall, almost all officials at all levels in Jingzhou were here. They all bowed their heads and were listening to the reprimand of General Zhennan and Liu Biao, the governor of Jingzhou.

"Gao Chong's child was overestimating his ability to attack Jiangxia across the border. The scholars could tolerate it, but who would not tolerate it!" Liu Biao looked angry, and his slightly gray beard shook uncontrollably.

Although his beard was a little gray, his spirit was still as good as that of the past. After saying this, Liu Biao slapped Huang Zu's emergency document on the table with a "snap".

Although he lacked the means and courage to kill thieves when he first arrived in Jingzhou, Liu Biao asked himself that his ambition was still there, and Gao Chong repeatedly used troops to the county under Jingzhou, which made him feel deeply threatened.

The last time Gao Chong attacked Jingnan, Liu Biao also hoped to use Gao Chong's power to restrain the Sun brothers, so he finally agreed to the agreement to divide Jingnan with each other. This time, the Sun brothers were dead, and he knew that Gao Chong's target of attack would never be as simple as Jiangxia County.

The two sides, led by Cai Mao and Kuai Yue, Kuai Liang, Liu Xian, Han Song, Fu Xun, Song Zhong and other officials all showed an excited expression when they heard Liu Biao's attitude.

"Jingzhou has been peaceful all over the world for many years, and the people live and work in peace and contentment are all thanks to the blessings of the lord. Gao Chong raised his troops across the border, used rash weapons, and trapped the people in the fire and fire. We must not retreat!" Kuai Liang said.

Kuai Liang and Kuai Yue, who were strongly in charge of the war, were always resentful of Gao Chong. On the one hand, this was due to the humiliation of the defeat of the previous army, and on the other hand, it was the concern of the interests of the Kuai family in Jingzhou. Thanks to the contribution of assisting Liu Biao to take over Jingxiang, the interests of the Kuai family in Jingzhou have been greatly expanded in recent years. Once Jingzhou has changed its master, the interests of the Kuai family will inevitably be hit.

"Lord, Jiang Xia Gao Chong is not what he wants. General Wen Pin has led his headquarters to go down the river to reinforce Xiakou. In the next step, we should quickly mobilize all our troops to fight Gao Chong's invasion with all our efforts!" Kuai Yue said.

"Lord, with my 100,000 troops in Jingzhou, I am still afraid that the noble favor will not be successful?" said Fu Xun, the commander of Xiangyang.

The statements of the Kuai brothers excited everyone. These officials all have their own families in Jingzhou. Once the vested interests are damaged, no matter who they are, they will pick them out. Kuai Liang and Kuai are very clear about this.

Cai Mao said: "As Qi Du said, Gao Chong sent troops to Jiangxia this time, his purpose would never be only in Jiangxia. We must not tolerate traitors and raise tigers as a disaster!"

Although he had a private understanding with Gao Chong before, it was not infringed on the vested interests of the Cai family. Now Gao Chong's attack on Jiang Xia directly threatened the survival of this part of the forces dependent on Liu Biao, which was something that Cai Mao could not tolerate.

Liu Biao nodded with satisfaction and said, "Yi Du, Degui, it's great that you can say this! This time we must let Gao Chong suffer some trouble."

The north bank of the Yangtze River, Shaxian City.

Gao Chong was strolling around the camp anxiously. The cold wind was howling outside the tent, but Gao Chong's forehead was filled with cold sweat.

"Is there any news about Ding Feng?" Gao Chong lifted the curtains and walked out of the tent impatiently. The evergreen oleander outside the tent kept swaying in the wind.

"——." Su Wei looked helpless and didn't know how to answer.

"General Gan is here!" A burst of rapid footsteps came, and the guard shouted with relief.

"Pampered handsome-!" Gan Ning's voice was hoarse, and the days of war made this man with iron attacks a little too much to bear.

Gao Chong asked anxiously: "How is it? Is there any news about Cheng Yuan?"

Gan Ning comforted: "Don't worry, Xu Sheng, Chen Lan and others all sent soldiers to search along the river. Cheng Yuan is a kid who is lucky and will be fine."

The news that Ding Feng's entire army was wiped out in Parrot Island reached Gao Chong's ears, like a stick. Gao Chong, who was commanding the full force to attack Xiakou, had to temporarily stop the attack on Xiakou and focus his main energy on searching for Ding Feng's whereabouts and dealing with Wen Pinjun who came down from Jiangling.

While he was talking, he suddenly saw Chen Lan running with a happy look on his face and sweating profusely. He ran and shouted: "People handsome, I'm looking for Ding Feng in the downstream area!"

"Is it life or death?" Gao Chong clenched his fists and asked in a low voice.

Chen Lan gasped and said, "This guy is very good-looking, but he was a little injured!"

Gao Chong let out a long sigh and murmured: "It's fine, it's fine!"

Although war is inevitable to kill in front of the battlefield, in Gao Chong's eyes, young and brave generals like Ding Feng are extremely rare. They are the future of Gao Chong's army.

"Xingba, thank you for your hard work, and inform the generals of the army to come to Shaxian to convene a military meeting!" Gao Chong calmed down and ordered.

The sudden appearance of Jiangling Wenpin indicates that this battle for Jiangxia is developing in an unpredictable direction. Gao Chong's opponent will not be as simple as Huang Zu. Wenpin, Kuai Yue, Cai Mao, and even the governor of Jingzhou Liu Biao may be involved in the war at any time.

"Yes!" Gan Ning left as ordered.

On November 7, Gao Chong's central army was the main tent.

The warriors gathered, and Ding Feng, who had just been fished out of the river by Chen Lan, was tied up and tied up. Under the support of the guard, he also struggled to the tent.

"Reporting to the favorite commander, Liu Biao of Jingzhou has formed a large army of 30,000 in Xiangyang, down the Mian River, and rushed straight towards Jiangxia!" Mei Qian, who was dressed in disguise and mixed into Xiangyang to explore military affairs, was full of dust and haggard face.

In order to inform Gao Chong of this urgent military situation earlier, Mei Qian traveled day and night along the way and almost never had a rest.

Just two days ago, Wen Pin from Jiangling had led 10,000 navy troops to Baling. Now Liu Biao's army is advancing from Mianshui again. In this way, Gao Chong's army's favorable situation of besieging Jiangxia immediately took a sharp turn for the worse.

"Pampered coach, it seems that Liu Biao has made up his mind to fight our army this time!" Liu Ye said, and his fair face turned slightly red as he said this.

Gao Chong looked as usual and said slowly: "Liu Biao has been in Jingzhou for many years, and he is definitely not a general. In the previous battle in Jingnan, Zhang Xian stood in front of him, and Jingnan was a small area, so Liu Biao could tolerate it. Jiangxia was the gateway to Jingzhou. If it was obtained by our army, he could advance along the river and take Jiangling and Xiangyang on the water. Liu Biao recruited his troops to reinforce him as soon as possible, so I ordered Lu Xun, Taishi Ci, and Huang Zhong to lead his troops to come and reinforce him. You are waiting to fight a big battle."

Although Gao Chong said that peace was, Xu Sheng, Chen Lan, and Ding Feng were all excited. Seizing the rich Jingzhou was a very tempting opportunity for them who were eager to make achievements on the battlefield.

Under Lu Xun, in addition to a group of young generals from Tianwei Military Academy, there were also He Qi, Dong Xi and other brave generals. Taishi Ci was stationed in Moling. The reorganized Danyang soldiers had recovered their original aura and were used for use. The veteran Huang Zhong was even more brave enough to be unstoppable. Gao Chong transferred them to make it clear that he would fight to the death with Liu.

Indeed, this battle cannot be backed off for Gao Chong or Liu Biao.

"Ziyi, it's great that Han Sheng can come!" Gan Ning shouted.

Taishi Ci, Gan Ning and Huang Zhong, the three most brave generals under Gao Chong, have never fought side by side together. This time, he finally got what he wanted, no wonder Gan Ning was so happy.

The combined number of the three armies of Lu Xun, Huang Zhong and Taishi Ci is about 20,000. Together with the soldiers gathered in Jiangxia, Gao Chong was able to use more than 40,000 troops.

Zhou Yu smiled and said, "At present, the thieves and chaos in Jiangdong are all calm, the people are stable, the tune is righteous, Han Sheng and Bo Yan are the time. In addition, in view of Wen Pin's aggressive offensive in Baling, I suggest that Li Tong and Lu Fan lead the army from Hengyang to Changsha. This will not only restrain the actions of Wen Pin's army, but also reduce the pressure on our army in Jiangxia."

Gao Chong stroked his hands and said, "Good idea."

In early November of the fourth year of Jian'an, the war for Jiangxia County gradually evolved into a war between the Liu Biao Group, which represented the interests of Jingzhou, and the Gao Chong Group, which represented the interests of Jiangdong. With Xiakou as the center, both sides began to mobilize their troops and send their most elite troops to defeat their opponents.

The 50,000 Liu Biao's army in Jingzhou faced 40,000 Gao Chong's army in Jiangdong. The scale of this battle was rare since the Qin and Chu battle for hegemony in the late Warring States Period. The commanders of both sides were the 50-year-old Liu Biao and the young and fearless Gao Chong.

In this battle, many people were involved. They either chose to actively participate or passively escape, and everyone was making the decision that suited them the most.

For Wen Pin, the governor of the Jingnan Navy, this battle has been waiting for four years, and he will not escape or retreat.
