Soldiers come to the world

Ding Feng was the main general of this operation. After Xu Sheng ignited the fire in the Chaisang warehouse, General Ding Feng led [-] troops to take advantage of the chaos to raid Chaisang and completely destroy the logistics base of the Han army. It will be necessary to end the Battle of Hefei ahead of schedule and evacuate Hefei.

This is Cao Cao's strategy of drawing salary from the bottom of the pot. The benefits are extremely high, but of course the risks are also high. Three thousand Jiangdong soldiers fight alone, and if they are not careful, the entire army will be wiped out.

It was for this reason that Ding Feng was extremely cautious, and led his army to station in the depths of the water, and did not show up easily, but this time he led his army to show up because the collection of fifteen cargo ships was completed.

When Ding Feng heard that Xu Sheng had sneaked into Chaisang first, he couldn't help but startled. If so, who will lead fifteen cargo ships to Chaisang?Xu Sheng should give himself an explanation.

Ding Feng was puzzled, he quickly came to the last big ship, at this time, a soldier with the ship had disembarked, Ding Feng recognized him as Xu Sheng's personal soldier, and asked: "General Xu, what happened?" What's going on?"

The soldiers stepped forward and bowed, took out a letter and presented it, "This is a letter from my general to General Ding."

Ding Feng took the letter and asked: "I want to know first, what happened?"

The guards looked at both sides, and said in a low voice: "We have found a perfect opportunity. The Han army is in urgent need of fuel oil, so we ordered a fleet to go to Chaisang to fetch fuel oil. This fleet has a special order. card, you can directly enter the fire oil depot in the inner harbor, my general replaced one of the big ships, and led the brothers to go directly to Chaisang."

The fire oil depot is located in the southeast corner of the warehouse complex, guarded by [-] troops, and the security is extremely tight. Unlike other food and grass soldiers, the fire oil is generally not shipped to the outer port wharf, but directly shipped from the inner port.

And the fire oil depot is their first goal. They must get a lot of fire oil to burn down the entire warehouse group.

Ding Feng nodded, this is indeed an excellent opportunity, no wonder Xu Sheng gave up his original plan, he opened Xu Sheng's letter, and the letter agreed that at the first watch two days later, both sides would start at the same time, Xu Sheng burned the warehouse, and Ding Feng Feng Ze led his army to set off and entered the Chaisangku area.

Ding Feng glanced at the fifteen large ships. Although they abandoned their original careful plan, these fifteen large ships could just be used to transport his soldiers.

Ding Feng looked at the letter again. Two days later, at the first watch, there are still two days left. He still needs to make some preparations. Ding Feng immediately turned his head and said: "Pass my order and camp on the spot!"

． ． ． ． ． ． ． ．

Two days later, the night gradually shrouded Pengze Lake, a bright moon rose above the lake, shimmering, the deep blue sky and the blue lake water merged into one color.

In the light of the moonlight, a huge fleet is slowly heading towards Pokou Town. At this time, there is still half an hour before the first watch. On the river in Pokou Town, fifteen large ships are ready to launch Today, the three thousand Jiangdong troops have all boarded the ship, waiting for the order to set off.

Ding Feng stood on the bow of the first big ship, staring at the direction of Chaisang. It is not far from here to Chaisang, only about [-] miles away. If there is a fire in the Chaisang oil depot, they can clearly see it from here.

Today, the wind direction is northeast, and the resistance is relatively high. If you sail at full speed, it will take two hours to reach Chaisang. However, it will take at least two or three hours for the warehouse in Chaisang to be completely chaotic. That is to say, it is too late to wait for the fire to start .

Ding Feng patiently waited for Chaisang's movement, but he felt a little uneasy. This uneasiness came from abandoning the original plan and adopting an interim plan, and he knew nothing about this interim plan. It was dark, and the uneasiness in his heart also naturally arose.

At this moment, a rocket appeared on the lake in front of it, shooting straight into the sky, which was extremely dazzling. Ding Feng was stunned for a moment. This was a warning signal. What happened ahead?

Not long after, a small patrol boat sailed back. As soon as it approached the big ship, the soldiers on the small boat shouted: "General, the situation is not good!"

"What happened?" Ding Feng asked loudly on the side of the boat.

"There are more than a hundred Han warships on the lake in front of us, and they are coming towards us!"

Ding Feng was so shocked that his heart almost stopped beating. The Han army warships came to kill him. He immediately realized that this was Xu Sheng's failure. Ding Feng didn't know if Xu Sheng betrayed them, but he knew that he had to retreat immediately. .

"The fleet is heading south immediately!"

Ding Feng shouted loudly, "Evacuate as quickly as possible!"

The fifteen large ships turned around slowly and headed south. They could only return to Jiangdong after landing in Poyang County. Otherwise, if they were trapped in the swamp and mud, even if they were not wiped out by the Han army, they would die without food.

But just after the fifteen cargo ships sailed for less than half a mile, a dense array of Han army warships suddenly appeared in front of them, coming down the current from the south and killing them quickly.

A cargo ship at the front couldn't dodge in time, and the bow dodged, but the hull was violently hit by the Han warship. With a loud bang, the huge hull was hit in two.

The biggest difference between a cargo ship and a warship is that the hull is far less solid than a warship, and the front of the warship is equipped with a pig iron bumper. Under the violent impact, how can the cargo ship not fall apart.

The cargo ship broke, and nearly [-] Jiangdong Army soldiers on board fell into the water. The water was in chaos.

At this time, hundreds of warships of the Han army had entered Poshui from Pengze Lake, and they were chasing and killing the Jiangdong army from behind. Without command, no one knew the whereabouts of the chief general Ding Feng. After a moment of stalemate, Jiangdong soldiers on board raised their flags and surrendered.

As early as when the first big boat was hit and cracked, Ding Feng knew that the big thing was over. He jumped into a small boat and quietly left the Poshui River with a dozen of his followers. Under the cover of night, he went deep into the swamp drive around.

Surrounded by [-] Han troops and [-] warships led by General Gan Ning, all [-] Jiangdong Army soldiers became prisoners of war. However, Gan Ning soon discovered that the enemy general Ding Feng was not among the prisoners. escaped,

Soon after dawn, Gan Ning led his troops back to Chaisang with [-] Jiangdong Army prisoners of war. Gan Ning’s warship had just docked at the Chaisang Wharf when he saw an officer waving a letter and shouting: “General Gan, Your Highness the King of Han urgently ordered !"

Gan Ning hurriedly got off the boat, took the letter and read it carefully, and it turned out to be an urgent letter from Liu Jing, King of Han, asking him to burn down several empty warehouses to make a fuss, creating the illusion that the warehouse area in Chaisang was on fire.

Gan Ning nodded, this is His Royal Highness King of Han who is planning to plan, although there are still many details to be discussed, but the military order is like a mountain, he immediately ordered: "Quickly order all the officers of General Ya to come to the big tent to discuss matters."

That night, dozens of warehouses in the northwest corner of the Chaisang warehouse area suddenly burst into flames.

In Chaisang City, more than ten miles away, all the people in the city rushed to the top of the city. Witnessing this spectacular scene with their own eyes, many people's eyes were full of worry. It was obvious that the warehouses of the Han Army were on fire. Chaisang is an important logistics center for the Han Army. , This will affect the Hefei front in the war.

But there are also those who are very excited. In the night, a few pigeons soared into the sky, spreading their wings and flying to the far east.

. . . . . . . . .

Chaisang was attacked by the Jiangdong army, and a major fire broke out in the warehouses. The news spread that the Han army could not hold on in Hefei. Liu Jing ordered the army to withdraw from Hefei. Soldiers, began to evacuate south.

Liu Jing immediately stood on a high hill, staring at the Han army camp under the hill. A large area of ​​tents was disappearing, and dense wooden fences were being pulled up to load the ship. Groups of soldiers assembled on the pier and began to line up to board the ship. .

In a huge bunker in the distance, crimson flames kept rising into the sky, mixed with billowing black smoke. It was the Han army burning all the supplies that could not be taken away, the damaged ladders, and the nest cars that could not be disassembled. , as well as sick and dead soldiers who lived in camps and their supplies, hundreds of soldiers continued to throw barrels of kerosene into the pit against the thick smoke, making the flames more intense.

No matter who saw all this, they would think that the Han army was about to withdraw from Hefei, ending the battle of Hefei, which had been a stalemate for nearly half a year.

At this time, Fazheng said in a low voice to Liu Jing: "Although Your Highness is planning to retreat, Cao Jun may not be fooled. Zhang Liao is quite resourceful, and Cheng Yu is in charge. Even if Cao Pi wants to pursue him, he can't do it. If we do this, is it right?" Will the gain outweigh the loss?"

Liu Jing knew that Fazheng's tactics were excellent, but he was lacking in strategy, and Jia Xu was the most cunning, and Liu Jing only got a little bit of Jia Xu's superficiality, but it was a pity that Jia Xu didn't come this time.

Liu Jing smiled lightly and said, "If it's just to lure Cao Jun to pursue, I don't have to go through such a lot of trouble, let alone burn down fifty empty warehouses in Chaisang. Besides, we are going by water, how can Cao Jun pursue us?"

It was only then that Fazheng realized that Liu Jing's actions had a deep meaning. He hesitated and asked, "Then what is your Highness doing?"
