Three Kingdoms: I, Liu Feng, do not want to die

Chapter 102: Divine Soldiers Descend from Heaven, Guan Yu Breaks into Gong'anjin at Night
Guan Yu's ridicule came from the bottom of his heart.

To prevent the news from leaking.

In the beacon tower area, Guan Yu not only chose to march at night, but also carefully sent small boats to investigate first.

The result surprised Guan Yu.

There was not a single Wu soldier stationed at the beacon towers along the river, so Guan Yu arrived at the waters near Gong'an City unimpeded!
In Guan Yu's view, having a beacon tower as an ear and eye and not using it is equivalent to gouging out one's own ears and eyes.

Dong Hui also laughed and said, "Zhuge Jin is not familiar with military affairs. He probably thinks the beacon tower is a waste of military strength, so he did not set up defenses. Your Excellency's counterattack on Gong'an is beyond the reach of ordinary people. Zhuge Jin will not be able to withstand your Excellency's might tonight."

The generals on the left and right all laughed.

If we take Gong'an, will Jiangling be far away?

For all the generals and officers, retaking Gong'an and Jiangling was not only about expelling the Wu bandits, but also a great opportunity to gain a future.

When withdrawing troops from Fancheng, Guan Ping led more than 50 officers and soldiers to Fangling.

Those fifty-plus officers were all veterans in the army. They were just waiting for the battle of Xiangfan to be over so that those who wanted to be promoted would be promoted and those who wanted to be rewarded would be rewarded.

result.

Sun Quan suddenly launched a surprise attack on Jingzhou.

A big victory turned into a big defeat.

From Guan Yu onwards, the three armies have failed to achieve any success and will all be punished.

The fifty or so officers did not dare to return to Jiangling to fight Sun Quan to the death because their families were in Jiangling City, and they followed Guan Ping to Fangling.

As a result, Guan Yu promoted more than fifty colonels and military officers to assist in commanding the troops.

This time, the promotion is to grant a temporary position first and then evaluate the merits.

In short: if these fifty or so fake colonels and fake military marquises can make enough military achievements, they can not only be promoted to regular officials but also be promoted to higher positions; otherwise, they will be demoted if necessary.

As the saying goes: After seeing the majesty of the mountains, you will no longer be attached to the scenery of the hills.

For these more than fifty fake captains and fake military marquises, no one wanted to be demoted after the war.

When it comes to future, no one is willing to give up.

A fake lieutenant stepped out and asked for orders: "Sir, the last lieutenant Yue Ju would like to serve as the vanguard."

The voice just fell.

Three more fake lieutenants came out and said, "Sir, the last lieutenants Yang Xing (Yan Cheng) and He Yuan would like to serve as the vanguard."

Guan Yu stroked his beard and smiled: "Don't worry. To capture Gong'an City, we need to destroy the navy deployed by Zhuge Jin at Gong'an Jinkou. Therefore, we need to do our best in this battle."

Immediately.

Guan Yu ordered six temporary lieutenants, Yue Ju, Yang Xing, Yan Cheng, He Yuan, Luo Yan, and Yu Hua, to each lead a thousand naval forces to attack Gong'an Jinkou.

Guan Yu hid the remaining warships and more than 3,000 soldiers in the rear to prepare for emergencies.

All should be deployed.

All are deployed according to the specifications of going all out.

Although he underestimated it, Guan Yu would not underestimate the defense of Gong'an City just because he underestimated Zhuge Jin's personal ability.

Gong'an City is a strong city that Guan Yu has painstakingly built over many years, and its facilities are quite complete.

If it was a head-on attack, even if the defender was Zhuge Jin, who was not good at military affairs, Guan Yu would not dare to claim that he could capture the city within a month.

Therefore.

Guan Yu wanted to first destroy the Wu soldiers and navy at Gong'an Jinkou, in order to weaken the defense force of Gong'an City and to intimidate the officials, soldiers and civilians in the city.

Guan Yu didn't believe that the officials, soldiers and civilians in Gong'an City would be loyal to Sun Quan and die for him.

As long as the deterrent effect is strong enough, someone will definitely take the initiative to act as an insider.

Public Security Jinkou.

Dozens of warships were moored in an orderly manner at the shore.

The Jinkou camp was brightly lit.

The patrolling soldiers were all nervous, as if they were on guard against something.

On the large ship, there were also soldiers patrolling intensively.

It has been more than ten days since Liu Feng killed Han Dang and seized the boat to cross the river.

During these ten days, the Wu soldiers at Gong'an Jinkou were often harassed by Liu Feng's navy.

They may attack directly during the day or launch a surprise attack at night.

Sometimes when the battle was in full swing, Liu Feng's navy would suddenly sound the call to retreat, and then disappear for two or three days. When they were seen again, it would be in the middle of the night. They would directly release several fishing boats loaded with reeds and oil at Gong'anjinkou, which scared the Wu soldiers at Gong'anjinkou.

Such an intrusion is really annoying.

Sun Huan, the commander of Gong'an Jinkou, a relative of Sun Quan and the commander of the Wuwei Army, was a young general of the Sun family known as the Little Sun Ce. He was harassed so much that he had dark circles under his eyes.

Since Quan Cong borrowed a lot of warships from Gong'an Jinkou when he led his troops to Lukou, Sun Huan had no advantage in the number of warships.

For more than ten days, Sun Huan was controlled by Liu Feng's navy.

How to play.

When to fight.

How long does each fight last?

Liu Feng has the final say.

Camp.

Sun Huan slept with Jia with dark circles under his eyes.

Ever since Liu Feng's navy invaded, Sun Huan almost never took off his armor.

Fortunately, it is a cold winter.

If it's a hot summer day, you'll get lice if you wear armor every day.

"Captain, this is bad."

A Wu soldier came hurriedly.

As soon as he finished speaking, Wu Bing saw Sun Huan's wolf eyes that were almost ready to kill.

"What's the matter?"

Sun Huan suppressed the urge to kill people and asked patiently.

Wu Bing lowered his head in fear: "The warships that patrolled tonight did not return on time."

Sun Huan stood up suddenly: "Liu Feng must have sent troops to attack again, beat the drums!"

Wu Bing asked quietly, "What if he doesn't come? I waited all night but there was no sign of him."

Sun Huan was even more upset: "Liu Feng is using a tactic to tire out the troops. If he sees that I don't beat the drum to gather the troops, he will come and burn the ships."

Although Sun Huan saw through Liu Feng's strategy of tiring out the army, he had no way to deal with it.

We can't just give up on Gong'an Jinkou and retreat back to the city, right?

If they really withdrew, all the large and small ships in Jinkou, Gong'an would be given to Liu Feng.

Without warships, the navy is like a fish jumping onto the shore; no matter how hard it struggles, it is useless.

What's more, whether it is a large ship or a small ship, it cost a lot of money and food to build.

Sun Huan didn't dare to give it to Liu Feng so generously.

The drums sounded loudly at Gong'an Jinkou.

The Wu soldiers boarded the ship very reluctantly, and even after boarding, they yawned and complained.

Sun Huan stood on the big boat holding a bow, looking left and right, as if trying to see where Liu Feng would appear from to attack.

The stress reaction of Gong'an Jinkou frightened the six fake captains Yue Ju, Yang Xing, Yan Cheng, He Yuan, Luo Yan and Yu Hua who were preparing for a surprise attack.

"What happened? We were discovered?"

"That shouldn't be the case! We didn't even turn on the lights, how could we be discovered?"

“Could it be that the patrol boat was defeated?”

"It seems that the commander of Gonganjinkou is quite capable and cautious."

"Humph! Since we've been discovered, let's attack with force!"

"I've long wanted to fight Wu Gou. I want to defeat the bandits and make a contribution. Tonight is the night!"

Yue Ju and others, mistakenly thinking that their whereabouts had been discovered, lit the torches on the boat.

In an instant.

As if a spark was starting a prairie fire, hundreds of warships suddenly appeared outside Jinkou.

This scene frightened Wu Bing of Gong'an Jinkou greatly.

Sun Huan even cursed loudly: "That's his mother! Where did Liu Feng get so many warships? Quick, quick, beat the drums and blow the horns, prepare for a boarding battle! Send a message to Gong'an City immediately!"

The number of warships was several times smaller, so Sun Huan didn't dare to engage in medium- and long-range bow and arrow exchanges.

Only by taking advantage of the narrow terrain of Jinkou and using boarding warfare can we reduce the enemy's numerical advantage and prevent them from easily shooting arrows.

After all, the water is different from the land. No matter how many people there are, the only place to stay is a warship.

Just when the chaos was happening in Gong'an Jinkou.

The upper reaches of the river.

Yamen General Li Ping also came quietly with his navy.

During these ten days, Li Ping followed Liu Feng's military orders to implement a strategy of tiring out the Wu soldiers at Gong'an Jinkou.

Various means were used frequently, and Sun Huan was annoyed, but Li Ping enjoyed it.

tonight.

Li Ping also prepared several fishing boats filled with reeds and oil, intending to give them to Wu Bing in Jinkou, Gong'an as a New Year's gift.

Suddenly.

At Gong'an Jinkou, drums were beating loudly and trumpets were blaring continuously.

Then Li Ping saw a terrifying scene: hundreds of warships suddenly lit torches!

"That's her mother. Could it be that Sun Huan the thief asked for troops from Lukou?"

"This is an ambush! Quick! Quick! Turn the boat around! Run!"

Li Ping mistakenly thought that Guan Yu's navy was the reinforcements from Lukou invited by Sun Huan, and he resolutely implemented Liu Feng's sixteen-character policy, so he dared not stay.

But as soon as the warship turned around, Li Ping discovered something wrong.

The hundreds of ships that suddenly appeared did not come towards him, but went directly to Gong'an Jinkou.

"You're not coming for me?"

Li Ping scratched his head in astonishment, and his mind was a little stiff for a moment.

The area from Jinkou, Gong'an to Lukou was all under the control of Sun Quan. Li Ping couldn't figure out where this navy came from.

"Is this a trick to lure the enemy in? Deliberately tricking me?"

The more Li Ping looked, the more he felt something was wrong. He picked out a few clever soldiers who were good at swimming and led a few fishing boats loaded with reeds and fuel to sneak along the river bank.

He also ordered the sergeant to set fire to it if it was a trap and then jump off the boat and go ashore.

Several fishing boats quietly sailed towards Gong'an Jinkou.

"Huh? Really fighting!"

"How come the number of this armor and flag is similar to ours?"

"Is he one of ours?"

"Ask first, what if it's fake."

Looking at the soldiers who fell into the river and the floating bloodstains, several lurking soldiers lowered their heads to discuss for a while, and shouted to the nearest warship with the same armor and flag: "Whose subordinates are you waiting for?"

The sergeant who was yelled at was also startled. What kind of question was this? Whose subordinates could we be? Huh? These armors and flags, are they ours? Fake?

"Who are you waiting for? What's on the boat?"

"What else could it be? Something that could burn the ship, of course."

"They are going to burn the boats. Quick, shoot them!"

"You are so awesome! Burn the boats! They are Wu Gou in disguise!"

"You are the one pretending to be Wu Gou! Wait, whose subordinate are you waiting for? You are not Wu Gou?"

"You are the Wu dogs! Your whole family is Wu dogs! I, your father, am a subordinate of the deputy general! Burn you Wu dogs to death!"

"Brother, calm down, calm down, don't light the fire! We are under the command of Lord Guan! We are one family! Don't burn it!"

Under repeated scolding.

The Han soldiers on both sides finally recognized each other's identities.

The soldier hurriedly threw the reeds and fuel that had just been lit on the boat into the river, then drove the fishing boat back quickly to report to Li Ping.

Li Ping was even more shocked when he heard this: "Marquis Guan's warship? Why would Marquis Guan come to Lukou?"

Just hesitated for a moment.

Li Ping exclaimed in great joy: "God has helped me accomplish this great feat! Pass the order, raise the flag, and attack Gong'an Jinkou!"

Dozens of warships raised their flags.

To avoid being accidentally injured by friendly forces, Li Ping ordered the soldiers to shout in unison, "Under the command of the Deputy General of the Han Army, General Li Ping, come to help!"

Guan Yu, who was downstream, also received the news that Li Ping was coming to help.

When the surprise attack turned into a boarding battle, Guan Yu discussed with Dong Hui whether he had misjudged Zhuge Jin's military level, as he could even anticipate the surprise attack. He also wondered whether Zhuge Jin had discovered the clues long ago and deliberately withdrew the soldiers from the beacon tower to concentrate his military forces.

The result was a misunderstanding.

Dong Hui heaved a sigh of relief: "The deputy general really seized a boat and crossed the river to the south bank. Not only that, he must have scared the Wu soldiers in Gong'an Jinkou these days. The Wu soldiers' reaction tonight was too intense.

My Lord, please lead the whole army forward, there is no need to be on guard."

Poor Sun Huan.

Generals like Quan Cong and Zhu Ran have always been using their numbers to defeat the few, but Sun Huan is the only one who has to face a Han army that is several times his size tonight, and this time it is the combined forces of Guan Yu's army and Liu Feng's army!
Seeing defeat.

Sun Huan no longer had the courage to fight, and hurriedly ordered the soldiers to abandon their boats and go ashore, heading for Gong'an City.

The Han soldiers rushed forward and quickly occupied Gong'an Jinkou.

Guan Yu also ordered the acting lieutenants Lu Wen and Niu Xian to lead two thousand infantry and cavalry to the only way from Gong'an City to Jiangling City, and set up checkpoints to block the main roads and small roads. He also ordered the acting lieutenants Yue Ju, Yang Xing, Yan Cheng, He Yuan, Luo Yan, and Yu Hua to lead troops to pursue Sun Huan and seize the city.
