Chapter 76 Heroes Cross the River

Looking at the spirit on Gao Chong's face, Xu Shu finally let go of his heart that had been hanging for a long time. In the same wing, the generals Zhu Huan and other generals were even more excited. It was their wish to immediately avenge Taishi Ci.

Xu Shu calmed down and said, "Sun Tzu said: Therefore, if I am invisible, I will be dedicated to the enemy, and I will be divided into one, and the enemy is divided into ten, so if we attack one by ten, then we will be numerous and the enemy is few, and if we can attack the enemy with a large number, then we will be able to fight with the enemy. Sun Ce dares to defend 10,000 soldiers, and those who rely on the support will be dangerous. Now if I fight with him, if I take it with a strong attack, it is the worst strategy. In the opinion of the public, I will not be better to entrust the prefect of Guangling Chen Deng to attack Sun Ce together. In this way, our army can cross the river in the east and west directions, threaten the enemy on the other side, and force them to divide their troops to defend. The enemy's own troops are few, and they will be easily broken!"

Gao Chong nodded in praise and said, "If Chen Deng can be persuaded to send troops together, Han Dang and Jiang Qin on the other side will have to separate troops to guard two places. We can take advantage of the situation and force it to cross."

"Chen Deng has an alliance with me, and he has already had his intention to plot against Jiangdong. If our army collapses quickly, Chen Deng will not be able to survive alone. I think the joint uprising will be successful!" Liu Ye said.

Gao Chong stood up and glanced around. Seeing that the generals of Gan Ning were all excited and eager to try, they wanted to fight this battle immediately. Only Lu Su, who was visiting, sat upright, tearing a sip of tea, without showing any expression.

Hearing Xu Shu, Liu Ye and the two think tanks agreed. Gao Chong's eyes showed a desire to fight. He shouted: "Okay————Zi Yang will be responsible for the matter of Xiang when he went to Guangling. The military situation was urgent, but we can set off immediately. The other generals understood and immediately returned to the camp to scrub the troops and wait for the battle!"

"Abide by the order!" Gan Ning generals responded loudly.

When everyone retreated, Gao Chong's face looked thoughtful. He slowly walked from the door to Lu Su who was sitting leisurely at the listening side, bowed and said, "Sir, knowing a hundred books, and being knowledgeable and extensive. May he predict the victory or defeat of our army crossing the river?"

Lu Su smiled and said, "Do you dare to ask if you want a happy victory or a very difficult victory?"

Gao Chong's face was flat and said seriously: "Sir, jokingly, the handsome man will ask for the front and abandon the future. Why do you need a question?"

"Okay, from Su Yu's opinion, Xu Yuanzhi's words should be all right in tactics. However, Moling is surrounded by mountains on three sides and facing the river. It is easy to defend and difficult to attack. Chen Deng, a Guangling army, had only 10,000 soldiers. He was defeated by Sun Ce in the previous period, and his morale in the army was depressed. If the army was the main force crossing the river from the east, it would be difficult to lure the enemy to divide the troops!" Lu Su said.

Seeing Gao Chong silent when he heard this, Lu Su Qingming sipped in tea and said, "The total number of enemies on the south bank is 15,000, Han Dang and Jiang Qin guard Danglikou. Sun Jing leads 5,000 troops to guard Moling. The enemy's combat power is strong in the west and weak in the east. If the general wants to lure the enemy, why not come and attack the west. There is a wind saying that the general personally leads the main force to Guangling, and wants to join forces with Chen Deng to go from Guazhou Ferry. In this way, the enemy will be concerned about the safety of Moling and the plan to divide the troops can be accomplished!"

Gao Chong said: "Sir, I want me to make the illusion of moving troops eastward. When I wait for the enemy to reinforce Moling, I will use my main force to cross the river and defeat the enemy in front of me."

Lu Su nodded and said, "Han Dang, although Jiang Qin is extremely brave, he is not good at strategy. The general wants to turn the passive situation around, so he must not be able to do so."

Gao Chong said happily: "Mr.'s plan is very wonderful, so Chong will follow it!"

Lu Su waved his hand and said, "This is not my plan. If I hadn't listened to Xu Yuanzhi and Liu Ziyang's plan, even if Su was talented, he would never have such a vision!"

Gao Chong gave a deep tribute and said, "Sir, I am too humble, I am less ignorant and more hopeful to encourage you!"

On the south bank of the Yangtze River, Han Dang military camp tent.

The torches that were lit up with oil were burning sizzling. When the moths saw the flames, they rushed into the fire without fear of death. They were immediately roasted into a smear of charcoal and emitted an unpleasant smell. Suddenly, a flash of lightning flashed in the dark sky. After a while, with the "rumbling" thunder, it was a pouring raindrops as big as beans, and the pain hitting the face.

With the horse's hooves, a bunch of people rushed into Sun Ce's army camp quickly. Han Dang, who was soaked with a cock, lifted his armor and jumped off the horse's back, and then said angrily: "Dong Yi, look at this ghost weather, it's really not a person's fault."

Jiang Qin, behind Han Dang, wiped the rain on his face, and said with a worried look on his face: "Yi Gong, this impermanence of lightning is not a good omen!"

Han Dang stomped his feet, shook off the mud on his legs, and said sternly: "Dong Yi, you are a seven-foot man who believes in this. If you let your lord hear it, will you look good?"

All the generals in Sun Ce's army knew that Sun Ce did not believe in ghosts and gods. Sun Ce hated the sayings of gods and witches that were widely circulated among the people. If Jiang Qin's words were heard, Jiang Qin would naturally know what would happen.

"Yigong, I just talk casually, where is the lord?" Jiang Qin hurriedly accompanied him to smile and explained. Han Dang was an old minister who followed Sun Jian's battle, and he had much older experience than Jiang Qin. This time, the guard was likou, Han Dang was the main general, and Jiang Qin was just the deputy.

"Duke Yi, please rest assured. I, Han Yi, are not those flattering villains. You and I will work together to fight against the powerful enemy today!" Han Dang said proudly when he saw Jiang Qin surrender. Seeing that his commander's authority was confirmed, Han Dang no longer criticized him, and his tone was much more relaxed.

Unfortunately, Han Dang's good mood did not last long. A mosquito began to buzz around his ears. No matter how Han Dang drove, he couldn't run away. In addition, the armor that was soaked in the rain stuck to his body, which made him feel very uncomfortable.

"It would be great if I had a hot bath. I would call two camp prostitutes, and it would be so beautiful!" Just as Han Dang was imagining, he came over in the heavy rain and shouted: "General Han, General Jiang, Gao Chongjun on the other side has had an unusual movement!"

Han Dang took the book from the scout, but sent a scout from Jiangbei to report that Gao Chong had set out of Liyang, led his troops eastward, and headed towards Guangling, leaving only a Ganning army on the other side of Jiangbei.

"What's the matter?" Jiang Qin asked.

Han Dang looked depressed and said, "The main force Gao Chong is heading to Guangling in the east!"

Jiang Qin's face changed and he said, "Is Gao Chong going to join forces with Chen Deng and cross the river from Guazhou to the south!"

Han Dang said slowly, "I'm afraid, I heard that Chen Deng and Gao Chong had a long conspiracy, and now they are in a mess. It's very likely that Moling is in danger! In this way, Gong Yi, you can quickly reinforce Moling and cooperate with General Sun to guard the city walls."

Jiang Qin hesitated and said, "Yi Gong, you and I have been entrusted by the lord and ordered to guard this place. I dare not slackewer! After I go, I will be empty in the army. If Gao Chong takes advantage of the opportunity to cross the river, wouldn't that be a bad thing?"

Han Dang said sternly: "Duke Yi, Moling is the key land for our army to store grain. The lord's tens of thousands of troops have all accumulated here. If the enemy attacks the city, even if you and I keep this as a sharp mark, what's the use?"

When Jiang Qin heard Han Dang's tone was stern, he was caught by Han Dang again. Although he had objections at this time, he had to respond: "Okay! I'll go there now."

On July 7, the third year of Jian'an, Likou was in the middle of the river.

The sun was still scorching during the day, and the good weather was scorching in the sky. In the evening, a large area of ​​dark clouds floated from the southeast, covering the sunset's rays.

Ding Feng lay in the cabin with his eyes on the sky, letting the waves sway the warship left and right. This feeling of suddenly flying into the air and sinking to the bottom of the river was really wonderful.

Now, the scouts of Sun Ce's army are hiding in the camp now, trembling! Ding Feng closed his eyes and guessed the enemy's movements. He had no worries about crossing the river this time, because the plan of the Chongshang and the military advisor was so perfect. Around Ding Feng, on a dark and unseen river, several small boats rolled on the top of the waves, approaching the opposite shore step by step. This was the vanguard of Gao Chongshang's crossing the river - Ganning tribe.

Ding Feng opened his eyes, and just now the water dripping hit his face, which was like hail, with a faint pain. The heavy rain poured down in a flash. Ding Feng turned around and through the layers of rain curtains, he saw the fire on the south bank like impermanent ghost fires, faintly and unreal.

"Mr. Junhou, the ship is in the water!" The steering soldier shouted in a crying voice. The heavy rain fell down the bank, and the inclined Ding Feng's warship could no longer bear the heavy pressure. The ship's side suddenly turned over and poured back into the river water nearly half the cabin.

"Chengyuan, is it okay?" Gan Ning's bold voice sounded in the darkness.

"Governor, this little wave is not difficult for me, Ding Feng. Look at me later!" Before Ding Feng finished speaking, a huge wave came and overturned the warship Ding Feng was riding into the river.

"Chengyuan, Chengyuan--." Gan Ning shouted.

After a while, a black shadow climbed over the side of the Ganning boat, and suddenly turned over and crashed into the cabin: "Governor, I'm here!" Ding Feng spit out a lot of river water in his mouth and gasped.

Gan Ning jumped over and said in surprise: "Good boy, you have it. Chengyuan, look, there are so many torches in the enemy camps on the other side of the shore. This means that more than half of the camp tents are empty. It seems that the plan of pet coach seducing the enemy has been accomplished!"

Ding Feng stood up shakingly, nodded, and said, "Governor, when will we attack?"

Gan Ning looked back at the north bank of the river and said in a deep voice: "Wait for a while, now the main force led by the Pet Supervisor is about to board the ship. After a while, we will launch an attack!"

After hearing this, Ding Feng shouted excitedly: "I will definitely kill Han Dang's dog head then!"

Gan Ning patted Ding Feng on the shoulder and laughed: "It's not enough for you to kill Ji Ling. You're addicted. You won't be so lucky at that time!"

The curling pine smoke scattered in the camp tent, making the pretty face of the beauty who was only a ruler dim. Han Dang stretched out his hand and hugged the camp prostitute who was pouring wine beside him. A pair of thick and thick palms rubbed the woman's breasts hard. On Han Dang's ginger face, sweat faintly emerged. Under him, another camp prostitute with naked body was in a state of happiness.

This kind of life is what Han Dang wants.

The beautiful spring scenery south of the Yangtze River is really intoxicating. It lacks the heroic spirit of the iron-blooded Central Plains, and the soft voice of Wu Nong. After following Sun Ce's father Sun Jian for most of his life, the sharpness of Han Dang, who was over 50 years old, is gradually fading away.

Instead, the desire for comfortable, comfortable, and luxurious days.

"The woman in Jiangnan is so fucking so beautiful!" Han Dang finally couldn't control himself and ejaculated all the filth that had accumulated for many days.

"The general is extremely powerful, and the bones of our sisters are almost dispersed!" The charming and pleasing prostitute stood up with her bent waist, gently stroked Han Dang's chest with her slender hands, and exaggeratedly. Compared to the sisters sent to each battalion, the two of them were chosen to serve the general, and they really deserve to thank God for their kindness.

"Ha---, if you are ten years younger, you two will be my opponent?" Han Dang was confused and enjoyed the infinite scenery of the beauty hugging her after the joy.

If Jiang Qin was on the side, Han Dang still needed to worry about military discipline and influence. The current enemy general was a serious crime of violating military discipline. However, Jiang Qin has been sent to Moling. Who dares to say that Han Dang has the word "no" in the camp? Besides, even if Han Dang is someone who will spread these things to Sun Ce in the future, with the contribution of following the second generation of their father and son to fight, Sun Ce would at most just scold him.

"General, I heard that the 30,000 troops of Gao Chong from the north bank of the river are about to come?" The prostitute who was serving wine asked when he saw that Han Dang was happy today.

When Han Dang heard the words, a smile appeared on his once fierce face and said with a loud laugh: "What is Gao Chong? He used to be a wise man, so I used to kill him with the big sword that straddled the horse. It's a pity why didn't he trample him to death? If he dared to come out this time, your grandpa Han would still deal with him."

After Han Dang said that, he immediately got up and went to the tent to hold the erect sword in his hand, then flew up and down, and put several beautiful postures in a row, and said proudly: "How is it, your Grandpa Han's skills are not blowing?" Fang Zi said, but felt a frivolous feeling under his feet, and he almost staggered to the ground. It was because of excessive indulgence and emptying his body.

While he was joking, he suddenly heard war drums outside the camp and shouts of killing were heard everywhere. Han Dang hurriedly put on his clothes and armor to get out of the tent, but he saw that the camp was already in chaos, and the fleeing soldiers cried endlessly.

"What's going on?" Han Dang asked, pulling a soldier with his head covered and running away.

"Report————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————

"How many people are there?" Han Dang asked anxiously.

"I don't know. Anyway, there are so many black areas that I can't count them. General, run away quickly, it will be over a while later!" The soldier finished speaking in one breath, pulled away Han Dang's hand, ran away and fled to the back camp.

Han Dang stood there blankly, his face turned pale. He never expected that Gao Chong would forcefully cross the Yangtze River in such bad weather. Could it be that Gao Chong's soldiers were all transformed by water ghosts? The huge waves in the river could not do anything to them? Also, the scout just now hadn't inquired that Gao Chong had led his army to Guangling, why did so many people appear again?

July 8th, the hour of Yin.

Several warships travel through the stormy Yangtze River.

The river rolls eastward.

He kept slapping the ship's side, smashing the helmsman's efforts to smash the ship. Gao Chong stood on the ship's armor, staring at the direction of the enemy camp on the other side, his brows were deeply locked.

"People's handsome guy, the storm is too big. Our warship has deviated from the waterway three hundred feet away. If this continues, it will definitely run into the reef!" Xu Shu held back the yellow water that surged into his throat and said.

Crossing the river under such a water condition is a severe test for everyone's will and physical strength. Xu Shu, who has been worried about war and cannot sleep peacefully for several days, could no longer hold on at this time.

"If you can't arrive at the Likou at the hour of Mao, you guys will jump into the river to feed the fish!" Lei Xu's strong body stood at the stern of the boat and shouted at the sweaty helmsman.

Gao Chong closed his eyes, and his heart was like the rushing river water, with undulating ups and downs. It was a risk to choose to cross the river on such an evening. If the army had not had enough food and supplies, it might have been possible to change the calm time, but if that was the case, the effect of the surprise attack would have been gone.

According to the itinerary, the team led by Liu Ye is now halfway through. This scene of fighting against the world can only be performed well for Gao Chong, not by mistake.

While thinking, Gao Chong suddenly sterned. After closing his eyes, what he heard in his ears was not only the whistling sound of wind, the sound of waves and the breathing of soldiers, but also the vague sound of shouting and killing. This sound came from the other side.

According to the original troops, Gan Ning's forward had to wait until his main force arrived before launching an attack on Han Dang Camp. Now the shouting of this enemy camp is that Gan Ning has fought Han Dang.

"Add a hand and walk along the water line!" Mei Qian, who was familiar with the water, jumped onto a scout boat and opened the way first.

Mei Qian's boat was like a leaf floating in the wind and waves. It was suddenly thrown into the air and suddenly sinking to the bottom of the river. Several times Mei Qian's figure with her sleeves was swallowed by the waves, which made Gao Chong's heart rise to his throat.

When Likou was in full swing, Ding Feng, who was in a tough battle, was almost desperate.

"Handang, Ba County Gan Ning is worthy of fighting with you!" Suddenly, with this loud shout, Yi Biao's army arrived from the slanting sect. The leader was tall and shaped like a mountain. The fire shone on his purple-red face, and there was a domineering aura that was beyond the reach of thousands of people. Ding Feng looked closely and found that it was Gan Ning who was killed.

"Who will fight to face the enemy?" Han Dang shouted back.

Although Han Dang and Gan Ning did not have a direct fight, they had long heard of Gan Ning's great reputation. If they talk about real martial arts, Taishici and Gan Ning were just around the corner. However, compared to their names, Taishici had no more achievements except for the draw with Sun Ce when he was in Shentingling. However, Gan Ning was different. In the battle of Fanyang, Sun Ben was cut off his head by Gan Ning. In the battle of Xiaogushan, Sun Fu's thousands of elite navy soldiers were lost to Gan Ning's hands, so that among the generals in Jiangdong, they all changed when talking about Gan Ning's name.

At this time, Han Dang saw Gan Ning coming like a tiger descending the mountain, and those who blocked the enemy along the way died, and he felt a little timid. When he was hesitating, Xie Chengye shouted and shot out, and he rushed straight to Gan Ning.

When Gan Ning saw the enemy general's spear coming, he cheered up his spirits. He pulled out the tip of Xie Cheng's spear and thrust his hand hard. Xie Cheng couldn't dodge and was stabbed into his throat by Gan Ning's spear. He fell off his horse and died in anger.

Gan Ning pulled out the crescent halberd from Xie Cheng's body and laughed at Han Dang, "Are you timid?"

Xie Cheng was also considered a powerful general in the Han Dang army. He did not want to be the soul of Gan Ning's halberd. The soldiers of Han Dang army who were watching the battle behind were all brave, and no other side general dared to fight.

Han Dang was also shocked by Gan Ning's bravery. He calmed down for a moment. Seeing that Gan Ning had not led many people, he shouted: "Come here, shoot arrows with me and shoot them to death!"

However, most of the Han Dang soldiers gathered in panic did not carry crossbows. Only more than a hundred well-trained Han Dang troops heard the order and untied the crossbows from their waists and shot towards Ganning and Ding Feng's army.

"Chengyuan, follow me to fight out!" Gan Ning shouted in a deep voice.

After saying that, he urged the horse to fight the halberd to kill the weak enemy group. The soldiers of Han Dang had long seen Gan Ning like a plague god. When they met the generals and killed them, they did not have the courage to resist. They only set a few arrows away and dodged. Ding Feng's troops broke out.

At this point, the sky had already revealed bright colors, and the fierce battle between the two sides continued. Although they had the lead in the surprise attack, the number of soldiers of the Jinfan Army was twice as small, and land infantry battles were not their strength. Under the powerful counterattack of the Han Dang Army, the soldiers of the Jinfan Army who had broken into each other had already fought hard. If it weren't for Gan Ning's left and right rescue, the result of this raid was unbearable.

Gan Ning was anxious. If he could not get any subsequent reinforcements, he would be determined to lose this time! Just when he was anxious, he saw a sudden chaos in the back camp of Han Dangjun. Gan Ning hurriedly urged him to look up the slope. He saw red flags on both sides coming into the left and right gates of Han Danghou Camp. It was Lei Xu and Zhu Huan's two troops.

Gan Ning was overjoyed and shouted with a halberd: "The reinforcements of the Pampered Commander have arrived. Men, kill me with me!" After that, he waved his halberd and rushed towards the Han Dangjun in the chaos.

Han Dang was at this time and was defeated in a mess. Lei Xu and Zhu Huan's appearance made Han Dang's hard work in the middle of the night disappear. The battle situation that had been slightly reversed worsened again because of the enemy reinforcements.
