Three Kingdoms: I choose Xiao Qiao and Da Qiao, why are you crying, Diao Chan?

Chapter 106 Fengxian Divine Crossbow! (Thanks to the book friend 2023…5429 for the two monthly tickets support~)

When the sky was slightly bright, Lu Bu's soldiers finally finished cleaning up the battlefield.

Zhu Huan reported to Lü Bu, who was resting with his eyes closed in the tent:

“My lord, sixteen of our soldiers were killed by the tiger, and the bodies of fifteen have been recovered.

“In this battle, our army lost more than 300 people and captured 2,000 enemy soldiers!

"The enemy commander Xu Gong fell off his horse and died. His body has been carried back to the barracks."

Lu Bu nodded slightly:

"Xiu Mu, you've worked hard, go and have a rest.

"Yan Baihu did not come to support Xu Gong in this battle. I think he was held back by Gan Ning and his men.

"After we take a short rest, let Xu Gong's two thousand surrendered soldiers lead the way and deceive the trust of the guards of the water fort behind Lougang.

"Once the enemy opens the gate, we will attack immediately!"

After listening to Lu Bu's plan, Zhu Huan nodded in agreement and then returned to the tent to rest.

About two hours later, Lu Bu saw that the time was almost up, so he immediately asked the soldiers to prepare.

He came before the two thousand surrendered soldiers and began to persuade them:

"Although you all served Xu Gong before.

“But now that Xu Gong is dead, Wujun is also in my possession.

"From now on, you will serve me, Marquis Lu Wen, and I will never treat you unfairly!
"If you help me trick the gate of the water fort open, each of you will be rewarded with one gold coin!
“But if anyone dares to expose himself, all of you will die under my Fang Tian Hua Ji!

"have you understood?"

"Understood!"

Under coercion and inducement, Xu Gong's soldiers agreed in unison.

Lu Bu then ordered the two thousand surrendered soldiers of Xu Gong to tie a piece of red cloth around their necks.

If a fighting really breaks out, the soldiers with red cloth around their necks in the chaos will be our surrendered soldiers.

Those without red cloth are enemy soldiers, so you won’t kill the wrong people.

Lu Bu then looked at Xu Gong's body.

Among the crowd of soldiers, he found a soldier whose appearance, figure and voice were somewhat similar to Xu Gong.

Let him wear Xu Gong's clothes and pretend to be Xu Gong.

After making all the preparations, Lu Bu gave an order and nine thousand soldiers marched towards Lougang in a mighty manner!

……

Lou Port.

Rumble!
Several catapults on the shore were launching large rocks, which were continuously hitting the ships of Gan Ning's army.

Faced with this hardcore city defense equipment, Gan Ning had no good way to crack it.

They could only ignore the losses and forcibly attack the port.

As long as you are close enough to the port, the power of the catapult will not be exerted.

Finally, after sacrificing three warships and thousands of people, Gan Ning's army finally succeeded in approaching the port.

Compared to cities with tall walls.

Since the port needs to ship out and dock, it is impossible for it to have walls that are too high, and its defensive capabilities are undoubtedly much worse.

When Gan Ning and his companions successfully approached the port, a group of powerful crossbowmen immediately jumped out from the bow of their own ship.

Following Gan Ning's order, these powerful crossbows improved by Huang Yueying immediately shot out powerful crossbow arrows!
Even though the soldiers in front of Yan Baihu were wearing armor, these crossbow arrows still penetrated the armor, causing bursts of wailing!
Huang Yueying named this improved crossbow - Fengxian Divine Crossbow!
Gan Ning shouted loudly and threw one of the double halberds with chains, accurately hooking a soldier's neck.

He pulled back suddenly and pulled the soldier directly into the water.

Seeing this, the other soldiers were frightened and retreated.

Gan Ning took the opportunity to swing out another halberd, hooked it on the wooden stake on the shore, pulled it hard, and jumped directly onto the shore!

Seeing the enemy general coming ashore alone, Yan Baihu's soldiers immediately rushed forward!

Gan Ning suddenly pointed behind the soldiers and shouted in surprise:
"My Lord! You are here?!"

The soldiers turned their heads subconsciously.

But they only saw their own commander, Yan Baihu, staring at them with a cold face. Where was the enemy's lord?

The soldiers then realized that they had been deceived, but before they turned back, they suddenly felt a pain in their necks!
Gan Ning had already taken advantage of this opportunity to rush forward.

Two crescent-shaped halberd blades were placed against the necks of the two soldiers and pulled hard to both sides!
The hot blood spots instantly splattered all over Gan Ning's face!
Seeing how fierce Gan Ning was, Lu Meng and Huang Gai on the boat were also quite shocked.

The former was the first to react and immediately commanded the army to land and attack!

The latter immediately jumped ashore and waved his whips to support Gan Ning.

Seeing that his own soldiers could no longer resist the enemy landing, Yan Baihu immediately rushed towards Gan Ning with his saber.

Seeing Yan Baihu rushing towards him, Gan Ning pressed forward with his double halberds! Yan Baihu was not afraid either, and took a step forward.

The big knife in his hand chopped, cut, slashed or stabbed, performing seven or eight different attack methods.

However, facing Yan Baihu's fierce fighting style, Gan Ning was not at all panicked and responded with ease.

Gan Ning, who is very proficient in many weapons, can be called a "weapon master"!
This trick of the enemy was nothing in his eyes.

For a moment, the sound of blades colliding and the ringing of bells on Gan Ning's body were heard continuously!
Although Yan Baihu is somewhat brave and can fight with Gan Ning for a while.

But nearly 30,000 troops led by Lu Meng and Zhang Chao were constantly landing.

Yan Baihu's soldiers were also forced to retreat into the harbor.

……

at the same time.

In front of the south gate of the water fort at the rear.

The defenders on the tower saw two thousand soldiers in their own uniforms approaching the camp.

When the defending general Gao Dai saw this scene, he subconsciously prepared to open the gate to let them in.

However, at this time, another guard, Sheng Xian, hurriedly stopped him:

"Have you forgotten that a soldier escaped last night and said that Governor Xu had fallen to his death?

"These must be captured enemy soldiers trying to trick our gates open!"

Gao Dai was startled and quickly looked at the two thousand soldiers who had stopped at the gate of the village.

At this moment, he suddenly saw a person among the soldiers who was dressed and looked very similar to Xu Gong.

This made him look confused.

Could it be that the soldier who escaped last night lied?
At this time, the leading soldier in front of the village gate shouted loudly:
"Why don't you open the gate and let us in?
“Although our army did not win a complete victory in this battle, we did succeed in repelling Lu Bu’s army.

"But last night many soldiers deserted the battlefield, and Governor Xu is about to come back to punish them!"

Hearing this, Gao Dai immediately looked at Sheng Xian beside him.

Sheng Xian's face was also full of suspicion at this moment.

After a moment's silence, he suddenly said:

"Let Governor Xu come out to talk."

"How dare you!" the leading soldier shouted, "Who are you talking to? Are you doubting whether Governor Xu is lying?"

Before Sheng Xian could respond, Xu Gong in the back spoke up to stop him:
"What are you arguing about? We are all brothers. What is there to argue about?"

As he spoke, "Xu Gong" rode his horse to the front, his gray face covered with some mud.

He raised his head, looked directly into Sheng Xian's eyes and asked:

"What do you want to say to this governor?"

Looking at this Governor Xu, Sheng Xian felt a little doubtful.

The other person gave him a strange feeling, like Governor Xu, but also not necessarily.

But looking at the other party's confident eyes and arrogant attitude, he felt that it didn't seem fake.

After a moment of silence, he finally cupped his hands:
"No, nothing... I'll let the governor in right away."

"Xu Gong" said "hmm" lightly and watched the village gate slowly open in silence.

However, just as the gate of the village cracked open a crack.

The suspicious Sheng Xian on the top of the village suddenly noticed that all the soldiers below had a red cloth hanging around their necks.

He keenly sensed that something was wrong and quickly shouted to the back:

"Wait! Don't open the door yet!"

"Xu Gong"'s heart skipped a beat and he looked up at Sheng Xian again.

Sheng Xian stared at Xu Gong and asked coldly:
"Why do you have a red ribbon tied around your neck?"

"Xu Gong" replied calmly:
“The nighttime combat environment is dim and if you are not careful you may attack your teammates.

“This governor had them tie red strips around their necks, which made them very conspicuous during nighttime battles.

"This can effectively prevent injuries to fellow soldiers. What's the problem?"

Hearing this answer, the suspicion in Sheng Xian's eyes faded, replaced by a sneer:
"Really? Then why didn't any of the soldiers who escaped last night send a red ribbon?
"Is it possible that you are not Governor Xu at all?"

"Xu Gong"'s face changed, but the next moment he burst into laughter.

He glanced at the gate that had cracked open, and suddenly stopped smiling. He shouted in a low voice:
"Do it!"

Before he finished speaking, a soldier rushed towards the village gate like a sharp arrow.

It was none other than Zhu Huan who was hiding in the team wearing a soldier's uniform!
Sheng Xian on the tower looked terribly pale and shouted:
"Close the gate quickly! These people are not friendly troops, they have already rebelled!"
