Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    It was five days later again, the third watch at night.  Sun Quan led the remaining 10,000 elite soldiers and withdrew from Chencheng at night.  Cao Cao waited for half a month and then sent Liu Ye to visit.  Unexpectedly, when Liu Ye arrived at the city gate, he found that Soochow's troops had already left.  Liu Ye was shocked and rushed to report to Cao Cao.  Only then did Cao Cao realize that he had fallen into the trap, so he quickly urged his troops to advance and recapture Chen City first.  That night, Cao Cao led his troops into the city, but found no soldiers and horses from Soochow.  Cao Cao's face was dark and he gathered a group of civil and military officials in the palace to discuss.

    Xia Houyuan attended and said with his hands.

    "That Zhou Gongjin is really cunning, he must have been malingering! My lord, you can quickly send troops to pursue him!!"

    Hearing this, Cao Cao narrowed his eyes that could swallow the sky and shook his head.

    "No. The other army has been prepared. If our army pursues us at this time, we will be ambushed!"

    "But if we don't send troops, I'm afraid it will be difficult to stop Jia Wen and a group of troops. What's more, Sun Zhongmou has already sent people to report to Jiangdong and sent troops to respond. By then, Jia Wen and he can't stop him.  The two armies attacked again, and Jia Wenhe was in danger!"

    Xia Houyuan's face was solemn and he said in a deep voice.  After hearing this, Cao Cao hesitated and felt even more regretful.  He originally took the initiative, but he didn't notice Zhou Yu's trick, so now he is passive everywhere.  Cao Cao had no plan for the moment and looked at Guo Jia anxiously.  The two of them had previously made a plan to wait for Sun Quan to withdraw from Chencheng, then send out troops to pursue him slowly from behind. When Jia Xu cut off his return, Cao Cao led his troops to cover up and kill him. In this way, he would capture the thirty thousand Dong  Wu's soldiers and horses were annihilated, just like searching for something in a bag.  But now Cao Cao doesn't know when the Soochow army will withdraw, or where they will arrive.  If you chase too hastily, you may easily be ambushed.  But if we don't pursue them, as Xia Houyuan said, Jia Xu's troops may be besieged by Soochow.

    Just when Cao Cao was impatient, Guo Jia smiled calmly and talked to Cao Cao.

    "If the other army is prepared, the lord may as well use it to his advantage."

    When Cao Cao heard this, his eyes lit up and he asked quickly.

    "How to do it?"

    Guo Jia smiled resolutely, exuding an aura of wisdom and wisdom, and said calmly.

    "It is predicted that Sun Quan will retreat to the east of the Yangtze River, and he must go through Ruyin, then Shouchun, until Hefei, and then ferry across the river. In accordance with the order of the lord, Military Advisor Jia must have laid an ambush at the boundary between Shouchun and Hefei at this time. Lord  The army can be divided into two groups. One group of soldiers and horses will go from Runan with light cavalry, and they will explore the location of Dongwu soldiers and horses along the way. If they can find out, they must rush on the starry night to cover their rear.  Follow the enemy's path, but don't rush after them. If you find them, you can only entangle them and make them think that our army is unaware. If the Lord does this, it will be done!"

    Guo Jia came up with another plan. When Cao Cao heard this, his face lit up with joy and he laughed endlessly.  So that night, Cao Cao divided his troops into two groups and taught the sergeants to eat well at five o'clock, and then they would attack each other at dawn.  After the transfer order was issued, all the generals were ordered to leave one after another.  On the next day, the sun was just rising.  Dian Wei and Cao Chun led 6,000 tiger and leopard cavalry and 4,000 tiger guard light cavalry, totaling more than 10,000 cavalry, and turned away to Runan.  Cao Cao, together with Xia Houyuan, Zhang Jia and other generals, led 20,000 soldiers to watch you advance.

    But he said that Sun Quan led his troops to retreat to Ruyin City, and the troops had just rested.  That night, Sun Quan discussed with Zhou Yu.

    ""  He is a rare man with a cautious temperament and both wisdom and courage. If Cao Cao really sends people to intercept our army's retreat, most of them will be at the border between Shouchun and Hefei. If Lu Meng is really ambushed, our army can rush to respond.  Instead, surround them and annihilate them.¡±

    Sun Quan nodded repeatedly after hearing this.  Zhou Yu and Sun Quan looked at each other deeply and then said.

    "The old thief may have noticed that our army has withdrawn at this time, and will definitely send troops to pursue it. The lord can order a fierce general to ambush and cut off the rear to block the other army."

    "Who can go there?"

    ¡°You have to be willing to dominate!!¡±

    When Sun Quan heard this, he also had this intention, so he summoned Gan Ning to come.  After a while, Gan Ning came to see him and paid his respects.  Sun Quan said calmly.

    "Can a hegemony be achieved by a thief!?"

    After Gan Ning heard this, he grinned and shouted with enthusiasm.

    "I'm not afraid of death, I'm just afraid that I won't be able to kill the thief!!"

    "Okay! Can Xingba dare to lead the army to cut off the rear?"

    Sun Quan cheered, and then asked again.  Gan Ning's eyes shone with excitement, and he shouted angrily.

    "Why don't you dare!?"

    "How many troops and horses are needed?"

    "Three Thousand Pence" Han Shimou Chapter 1132 Sun Quan Withdraws His Troops (Part 2) "Yes!!"

    Gan Ning stretched out three fingers and said aggressively.  Sun Quan looked slightly horrified, and said to Gan Xi in a deep voice.? said.

    "Cao's thieves are numerous and powerful, and they have countless fierce generals under their command. You only lead three thousand soldiers and horses. If you are negligent, you will be in danger!!"

    "My lord, there is no need to worry too much!! If someone makes a mistake, I will accept the military order!!"

    Gan Ning's eyes, like those of an eagle, were filled with sharp energy and showed an unruly and unrestrained look.  Zhou Yu watched from the sidelines, secretly praised him, and then answered.

    "This is a critical moment, and the army has nothing to say. If we leave here, we will escape death. We must not ignore words if we want to achieve hegemony!!"

    "It is a matter of loyalty to the king to eat the emperor's salary. I have been deeply favored by the king of Wu, so I should repay it with all my strength!!"

    Gan Ning regarded death as home, and Sun Quan was strong.  Immediately, he ordered someone to fetch a golden helmet and tiger armor, put it on for Gan Ning himself, and conferred Gan Ning the title of Hu Liehou.  Gan Ning thanked him and left.

    The next day, Sun Quan led his troops to withdraw.  Gan Ning followed Zhou Yu's instructions and temporarily stayed in Ruyin City, then sent scouts to investigate everywhere.  A few days later, the scout came to report.  Cao Cao has led 20,000 elite troops to kill them thirty miles away from Ruyin City.  Gan Ning was not afraid after hearing this and ordered the sergeant to bring 500 jars of strong wine.  After Gan Ning and all the soldiers drank, they gathered their troops and went to Wufeng Mountain, ten miles outside the city, to ambush.  But he said that Cao Cao came with his troops and took Zhang Jiao as the front army.

    Zhang Jia cautiously walked forward along the road. When he arrived at the foot of Wufeng Mountain, Zhang Jia was about to give the order to go down to the village.  Suddenly he opened his jaw and felt an ominous premonition.  He opened his jaw and shouted loudly, and the front army stopped immediately.  He opened his jaw and squinted his twinkling tiger eyes, looking around at the "Han Shimou" formation. He saw that the terrain around him was complicated and it was very easy for an ambush to ambush him.  Opening his jaw, he sent several scouts to investigate.

    It was the first watch of the night, and the night had just risen. There was a mysterious moon hanging in the night sky, and the stars were shining brightly.  Suddenly, a cannon shot shook the night sky as if it was shaking.  Then there were bursts of violent sounds like landslides and earth cracking, and countless rocks, rocks, and trees fell down from the mountain.  Zhang Jiao's face changed drastically, and he hurriedly ordered his troops to withdraw.  The Wei soldiers rushed back, pushing each other and causing chaos.  In a moment, mountains, rocks, and rolling trees came over, and all the Wei soldiers fell on their backs.  Xia Houyuan was leading the central army forward when he suddenly saw the front army stopped and became suspicious.  Suddenly, there were bursts of earth-shaking loud noises, and then bursts of screams were heard.  Xia Houyuan's complexion changed and he hurriedly rode to visit.  At this time, Zhang Jiao was leading the troops to the rear. The two armies retreated and advanced, and they suddenly collided.

    After several rounds of rolling rocks and trees, suddenly, there was a loud killing sound on the mountain, drums and horns sounded, and the killing sound was loud.  I saw a soldier wearing a golden helmet and tiger armor, all dazzling. He was leading the way, galloping down the mountain, as if the sky was collapsing and the earth was collapsing. A tiger-tooth sword in his hand was emitting cold light, and the sword struck like lightning.  Bringing up pieces of blood flowers.  Opening his jaw and looking back, he was shocked to see that the general was Gan Ning.  Gan Ning rushed left and right, killing all the way, as if he was in a deserted place, he had already reached Zhang Jaw.  He opened his jaws unprepared, and Gan Ning slashed wildly with his sword, with great power.  Zhang Jia was beaten by Gan Ning and was defeated steadily. After twenty rounds, he fled in defeat.  Gan Ning led his troops to cover up the enemy.  Xia Houyuan came to meet Xia Houyuan with his gun, but Gan Ning showed no fear. He shouted loudly, like a roar of thunder, and fought vigorously. The light of the sword was brilliant, like a thunderbolt. Xia Houyuan danced his gun to resist. When Gan Ning reached the seventh sword,  He cut off Xia Houyuan's gun with a knife, then twisted the knife and stabbed Xia Houyuan in the heart.  Xia Houyuan was frightened and hurriedly avoided.  Gan Ning's broadsword brought out a dazzling flame at the five points above his right waist.  The two men were fighting closely, and after several rounds, Xia Houyuan couldn't resist, so he reined in his horse and retreated.  Gan Ning looked back with his gun and made a move, and three thousand warriors rushed towards him.  The Wei soldiers were defeated and fled.

    ¡°If we don¡¯t fight to the death now, then when will we?¡±

    Gan Ning looked ferocious and shouted loudly, inspiring people.  I saw Gan Ning's three thousand warriors, like tigers and wolves, jumping up in a group. They came with such force that the generals on the left and right of the Wei army could not withstand them.  Gan Ning led more than 500 cavalry and charged into the rebel army.  Cao Cao led the rear army to greet him. He saw Gan Ning among the thousands of troops, walking like the wind, no one dared to stop him. He was frightened and asked anxiously to the generals around him.

    "Who is this!?"

    Several soldiers quickly recognized Gan Ning and answered in unison.  When Cao Cao heard that it was Gan Ning, he couldn't help but praise him.

    "I have heard that Gan Xingba of Eastern Wu has a courage that is unworthy of ten thousand men. Taking the enemy general's head among ten thousand troops is like searching for something in a bag. I saw it today. It is really like this. He is worthy of being a tiger general!!"

    After Cao Cao said this, he taught the saber and shield bearers at the back to help the formation and go forward to block them. The archers and crossbowmen pressed behind and shot them with random arrows.  Gan Ning was charging to kill, and when he saw Cao Cao, the rear army, his face was shocked. He thought that if he killed Cao Cao, it would be better than killing millions of soldiers and horses.  Gan Ning shouted loudly and charged forward, followed closely by five hundred elite cavalry behind him.  The Wei soldiers in front had been killed long ago and were so frightened that they did not dare to block them.  Gan Ning rushed straight towards him, and in a moment the sword and shield hand used his shield to build a wall of shields to block him.  Gan Ning wielded his sword and slashed with all his strength. He just opened a gap, and arrows shot out behind him.  Gan Ning drew his sword, braved the arrows and flew towards Cao Cao.  When Cao Cao saw this, he felt frightened, reined in his horse and left.

    At this time, Xia Houyuan and Zhang Jia each led a troop of soldiers and horses to attack from behind.  Wei Bing saw it??Morale was shaken.  The arrows from all directions were fired more rapidly, and the swordsmen and shieldmen on the left and right came frantically to block it.  Gan Ning was unable to break through and saw Cao Cao fleeing away. He gritted his teeth and shouted at Cao Cao.

    "Old thief Cao, sooner or later, I, Gan Xingba, will definitely take your head. I will spare your life today!!!"

    After Gan Ning finished drinking, he turned his horse around, his sword flying wildly, and he forced himself out of the crowd and drove away onto the main road.
