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

Chapter 96: Tiger Roars and Dragon Shouts, Liu Feng Kicks the Camp at Jiangjinkou
Pan Jun frowned and pondered.

Logically, Pan Jun did not believe that Liu Bei could lead an army of 50,000 into Zigui, and he even less believed that Liu Bei could arrive at the city in three days.

After carefully examining Han Zhong's expression, Pan Jun suddenly laughed and said, "How can a small official like you understand military and national affairs?

The Battle of Hanzhong led to the decline of Yizhou and the resentment of the people; it was a stretch for Liu Bei to lead a thousand soldiers into Zigui, let alone to lay siege to the city three days later.

Liu Feng deliberately lied to you just to make you feel at ease as an insider. How could he hide such a trick from me?
Liu Bei and his son have always been hypocritical and cunning. It is unwise to work for them. If you are willing to abandon darkness and follow light, I can recommend you as a household official."

Han Zhong laughed loudly: "Pan Chengming, you judge others by yourself and think that those in high positions are as hypocritical and cunning as you. How foolish you are!

You got one thing wrong. It's not that the deputy general wanted me to be his insider, but that I volunteered to be his insider.

However, the deputy general said: Sun Quan is cunning and Pan Jun is vicious, they will definitely guard the city gates strictly. I am an insider and it may be difficult to succeed.

The deputy general also told me that the king would lead his troops to the city in three days, advised me not to take risks, and even promised that I would not need to hide the secret after being captured.

I am just a small official, a menial clerk who has to bow and nod to everyone he meets. My life is worthless.

But the deputy general did not hesitate to tell me the secret just to save my life.

It is my honor to serve the deputy general. How can you, a traitor who sells out your master for fame, recommend me?"

Han Zhong cursed happily.

Pan Jun's face became increasingly gloomy: "Since you knew it was a confidential matter, why did you leak it? Isn't this being ungrateful?"

Han Zhong chuckled: "Don't use morality to hold me hostage! I'm not leaking secrets, I'm loyally carrying out the orders of the deputy general. People like you will never understand!"

Seeing Han Zhong's ironic words, Pan Jun's tone turned cold and he lost interest in continuing the interrogation: "A small official cannot be a spy. Take him away and torture him severely."

Han Zhong snorted coldly, looked at Pan Jun with contempt, and allowed himself to be taken away by the strong men on both sides.

Even though he had cultivated his Qi for many years, Pan Jun felt his mind wavering and his head hurt more.

【Han Zhong only met Liu Feng once, and he swore to be loyal to Liu Feng until death. Fortunately, I noticed it in time, otherwise if Han Zhong had met the conspirators, their morale would have been greatly boosted. Liu Feng is so good at winning people's hearts. If he cannot be eliminated, he will become a great threat to the Supreme in the long run.】

Think of this.

Pan Jun decided to meet Sun Quan.

This time, Sun Quan wanted to take advantage of the snowy weather to attack Liu Feng, but Pan Jun was actually opposed to it.

Pan Jun wanted to play it safe and only wanted to wait until Liu Feng ran out of food before sending out his troops, which would ensure he would be safe. He was afraid that even with the help of good luck, Sun Quan would still not be able to defeat Liu Feng.

After meeting Han Zhong, Pan Jun's thoughts changed.

There are many aristocratic families in Nanjun. With Liu Feng's means of winning people's hearts, there will definitely be aristocratic families willing to provide food and fodder for Liu Feng.

If Liu Feng were allowed to delay until Liu Bei sent out his troops, Jiangling would not be able to be defended even if it was strong.

In the past, Cao Ren defended Jiangling for a year, and even though Cao Cao had several armies coming and going to support him, he finally had no choice but to abandon the city and leave.

Pan Jun is a very cruel and decisive person.

When he was working for Liu Biao in Jiangxia, he executed the county magistrate of Shaxian on the charge of corruption.

In the late Han Dynasty, it was actually a joke to convict people of corruption. However, executing the head of a small county with less than 10,000 households would not offend the noble families and would also bring fame.

When he followed Liu Bei as the governor of Jingzhou, he was even more ruthless. Not only did he surrender to Sun Quan, he also led troops to kill his former colleagues. He had no respect at all.

Han Zhong scolded Pan Jun for "judging others by his own standards and thinking that those in high positions are all hypocritical and cunning", which very realistically revealed Pan Jun's viciousness.

Ever since.

Pan Jun found Sun Quan and told him that Han Chong wanted to be Liu Feng's accomplice. He suggested to Sun Quan that "there is no need to wait for Liu Feng to attack in three days, but to launch a surprise attack on Liu Feng's camp on a snowy night to prevent Liu Feng from colluding with the accomplice to launch a surprise attack first."

After carefully considering Pan Jun's proposal, Sun Quan summoned Quan Cong, Zhu Ran, Yu Fan, Wu Fan, Xu Sheng, Ding Feng, Ma Zhong and other civil and military officials.

After a discussion, everyone agreed with Pan Jun's proposal.

While Liu Feng is sick, we must kill him.

Although Han Chong was arrested by Pan Jun, no one knew whether any of his accomplices would contact Liu Feng to launch a surprise attack in advance, whether other rebels who were not on the same side as Han Chong had also contacted Liu Feng, or whether Liu Feng had already deployed internal support in the city.

To strike first is to be strong, but to strike later is to suffer disaster.

Instead of waiting for Liu Feng to launch a surprise attack, it is better to send troops to launch a surprise attack on Liu Feng first.

Sun Quan assigned 2,000 men to Pan Jun and ordered him to assist in patrolling the city to prevent any traitor from noticing something was wrong and leaving the city to report the incident.

He also ordered Quan Cong, Zhu Ran, Xu Sheng, Ding Feng, and Ma Zhong to each lead 3,000 soldiers to be responsible for tonight's surprise attack. Sun Quan deployed the rest of the officers and soldiers on the top of the city walls and in the inner city to prevent a collision with Liu Feng's surprise attack.

Yu Fan also reminded Sun Quan to pass the message to Han Dang at Jiangjinkou, asking Han Dang to be careful and alert.

The others also had suggestions on various details, and Sun Quan adopted them one by one.

Although the presence of the civil and military officials under Sun Quan is not as strong as those of the Han and Wei dynasties, the ability of these people to work together should not be underestimated.

Both Sun Quan and Liu Feng's side thought of taking advantage of the wind and snow to launch a surprise attack.

This sudden snowstorm was a good opportunity for Sun Quan and Liu Feng.

night.

Liu Feng selected five thousand elite soldiers and prepared bridles, reins, saddles, armor, bows and arrows, weapons and other equipment.

He also ordered the remaining thousand or so people, some sick and some injured, to return to Maicheng with five days' worth of rice.

Some of the injured were unwilling to leave and insisted on staying in the camp and fighting to the death with Wu soldiers.

Liu Feng did not want these people to die in vain, so he gave a military order to the wounded: return to Maicheng to seek reinforcements.

All the injured knew that Liu Feng’s military order was nonsense.

If Liu Feng wins tonight, he won't need reinforcements; if he loses, reinforcements will not be able to arrive in time to rescue him.

Liu Feng also entrusted the wounded to take the list of soldiers who were going to launch a surprise attack on Jiangjinkou tonight to Maicheng. If the surprise attack failed, the list of soldiers who were going to launch a surprise attack on Jiangjinkou tonight must be sent to Liu Bei.

finally.

Under Liu Feng's persuasion, the injured and sick people gritted their teeth and headed towards Maicheng.

Looking at the injured who left in tears and the remaining 5,000 elite soldiers, Liu Feng suddenly felt his blood boiling.

Liu Feng is not a man who would admit defeat.

He is also a man who dares to gamble with his life.

If he just wanted to save his life, Liu Feng could have fallen off his horse and returned to Xichuan, then quietly switched from a military officer to a civil officer, and lived under the protection of Liu Chan and Zhuge Liang.

Liu Feng was older than Liu Chan, and would have died before Shu. After his death, he would not care about the floods, as long as he could enjoy a lifetime of food and clothing.

however.

This kind of life is not what Liu Feng wants.

If you can only linger on for the rest of your life, then it doesn't matter if you have the memory of your past life. As long as you don't awaken the memory of your past life, you can reincarnate happily.

It is said that people tend to think too much when facing difficulties, and Liu Feng is no exception.

There were so many thoughts running through my mind, but they all ended up pointing to one:
I control my own life!
tonight.

Either you seize Jiangjinkou and live, or you die facing Jiangling City!

"set off!"

There is no long-winded and useless talk, only the steady and calm "the commander is prudent" as solid as a mountain.

The general is the courage of the soldiers.

Only when the generals are stable can the morale of the army be stable.

Although it was night, the snowstorm did not stop, and the initial snow needles turned into snowflakes.

The biting cold wind blew the tattered military flag into even more pieces.

Five miles.

It only takes half an hour for an adult to complete the task at a normal speed.

For Han soldiers with armor, flags and weapons, this time will be doubled.

And when marching on a snowy night, this time will double or even longer.

As the night progressed, the snow fell harder.

Along the way, many Han soldiers fell down due to the cold wind and snow.

Even Liu Feng's cavalry had their horses fall down in the wind and snow.

The ancients said: A kind person cannot command an army.

This not only requires the commander-in-chief not to be too merciful in military law, but also requires the commander-in-chief's character.

Watching the soldiers under your command die right under your nose is something that not many people can bear.

Nearing midnight, Liu Feng finally arrived at Jiangjinkou with the Han soldiers.

After counting the number of people, it was found that more than 200 people were lost along the way!

There was a pen for raising chickens, ducks and geese near the mouth of Jiangjin. Liu Feng asked Fang Yue to take people forward and hit the chickens, ducks and geese in the pen to make them make noises.

As soon as the cry sounded.

Two Wu soldiers came to the animal pen. One of them picked up a stone and threw it into the pen, complaining: "You only know how to bark. Are you going to let us sleep?"

Another Wu soldier looked around vigilantly, and when he found nothing unusual, he persuaded his companion, "Come on, why bother with a bunch of beasts? General Han is too cautious. He even asked us to be on high alert in such a snowy night. Who would come to raid the camp in such a cold weather?"

After the two Wu soldiers left, Fang Yue took people to follow up and investigate.

A quarter of an hour later.

Fang Yue led his men back, worried: "General, the security at Jiangjinkou is stricter than last time."

Everyone around had a look of fear on their faces.

The security is tighter than last time. How can we succeed in the surprise attack tonight?

Liu Feng glanced around, his expression and tone were still as calm as a mountain: "Don't worry, everyone. There is only one reason why Han Dang has stepped up his vigilance, and that is that there will be no reinforcements coming to Jiangling City tonight like last time.

Last time, he brought too few soldiers, and was outnumbered and encountered reinforcements from Jiangling City, which is why he failed to take Jiangjinkou. This time, his troops are nearly twice as many, but there will be no reinforcements from Jiangling City, and Han Dang is still injured.

Jiangjinkou is already in our pocket, so what is there to be afraid of?"

Everyone's fear was greatly reduced.

While the military strength was still there, Liu Feng did not waste any more time and directly ordered a powerful attack.

Since Han Dang has stepped up his guard, there's no need to be sneaky anymore.

Liu Feng led the cavalry guards and rushed to the front.

The bowl-thick spear directly knocked away the fence at the camp gate, and a thunderous roar rang out: "Those who block me will die! Those who avoid me will live! The great man Liu Feng is here to attack the camp!"

More than forty riders behind him also rode their horses closely to follow Liu Feng, their shouts as loud as those of tigers and leopards.

Inspired by Liu Feng's courage and bravery, the guard general Li Ping, the lieutenants Kou Anguo, Li Fu, Deng Xian, the captain Tian Qi, the military marquis Fang Yue, Pan Feng, Yu She, Mu Shun and others also led their troops to attack.

The Wu soldiers who were on night patrol were both shocked and angry.

"How dare you charge straight at me? How brave!"

"Beat the drums and blow the trumpets to stop the enemy!"

"Archers, shoot them!"

"Go and report to General Han!"

"."

The soldiers and marshals deployed by Han Dang either gave warnings or went into battle.

Snowflakes fell like goose feathers, and the quiet Jiangjinkou in the dark night soon fell into chaos.

The blood spilled on the snow, adding a touch of beauty.

Upon hearing the news, Han Dang stood up from the bed instantly.

Since receiving the military order from Sun Quan, Han Dang has been sitting on the bed wearing armor. The soldiers in the camp are also wearing armor and holding weapons at all times.

Ordinary Wu soldiers did not know the reason for the heightened vigilance, but Han Dang was very clear: Sun Quan was going to launch a surprise attack on Liu Feng's large camp tonight. Once Jiangjinkou was also attacked, there would be no troops in Jiangling City to support it, and the troops that were going to launch a surprise attack on Liu Feng's large camp would find it difficult to rescue Jiangjinkou in a short time.

But as long as he can hold on until reinforcements arrive, Liu Feng, who has lost his camp, will become a lost dog.

Therefore, tonight, if Han remains undefeated, he will win!
Han Dang rushed out of the tent with a spear in hand, and soldiers on both sides gathered around him.

Looking at the Han soldiers charging at him, Han Dang's eyes were filled with ferocity: "As the Supreme One expected, Liu Feng really dared to attack Jiangjinkou again. Now that he's here, don't leave! Send a message to all the troops, we must fight to the death tonight!"
