The fighting at the port was fierce. Ding Feng led his troops to resist desperately. Thirty thousand troops and horses pressed against the front of the Chu army. As the battle progressed, the Chu army invested more and more troops. The front edge of the river bank was almost occupied by the Chu army. More Chu troops landed, making Ding Feng's situation even more passive.
Chen Wu's battle situation was quite impressive. Various weapons on the battleship forced Guan Yu and Wenpin to retreat, and his own building ship was almost smashed to pieces. Seeing that the battle situation at the port was not right, Chen Wu immediately ordered the two building ships to lead a hundred He went to rescue Ding Feng and prevent the Chu army from completely occupying the port.
The commander-in-chief of the Chu army was on board the warship.
Liu Bei looked at the battle ahead coldly. After the Chinese troops pressed forward, Jing's army was unable to resist. The entire port defense line was completely suppressed. In another hour or so, Jing's army would undoubtedly be defeated. At this moment, the scout ship reported that the Jing army's naval forces were coming from the river.
The generals looked over and saw two large ships and hundreds of sterns coming for help.
Chen Gong said: "Your Majesty, they must be intercepted, otherwise it will affect our army's landing port. However, the Jingjun warship is slightly stronger than our army, and the weapons and equipment on the ship are more advanced. I am afraid it will be difficult to intercept them. The only way is to mobilize the trebuchet. Long-range strike."
Liu Bei knew that Jingjun was well equipped and nodded gently.
Liu Feng asked for orders: "Father! I am willing to lead a large warship and a hundred stern warships to intercept the Jing army!"
Liu Bei looked at Liu Bei and warned, "Don't be careful."
"Here!" Liu Feng took the order and retreated.
Looking at Liu Feng's back, Liu Bei sighed. Not his own biological son, Liu Bei always felt that there was an invisible gap in the father-son relationship with Liu Feng, and they were both vaguely wary of each other. Liu Feng took the initiative to ask for the military service, and he had this intention. He wanted to use his military exploits to stabilize his position, but could blood-based family ties be exchanged for his military exploits?
"emperor!"
Seeing that he was lost in thought, Chen Gong said softly: "Although Zhang Xiu's troops have left Duyang City, there are still hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses in Nanyang, so we must be on guard. The landing battle cannot be delayed for too long."
Liu Bei recovered his thoughts, glanced at Chen Gong and then looked at the battle ahead. The battle was still going on, and the Jing army was still fighting back with all their might. Standing on a high place, Huang Zhong was clearly visible riding his horse to kill the enemy, but the Jing army was on guard step by step, using the trenches The superiority caused Huang Zhong's horses to lose their due lethality, and many Jing soldiers hid in the trenches and stabbed their horses with long spears.
After thinking about it, Liu Bei said: "Push all the Chinese troops up, and I will go into battle myself!"
Chen Gong shouted: "How can the emperor's body of thousands of gold..."
"Cao Cao and Zhang Xiu are both in front of the battle in person. I was also a military general back then, so why not!" After saying that, he ordered his men to change their clothes and put on gold armor, hung double swords on their waists, and ordered the commander's warships to approach.
Liu Bei's personal presence in front of the battle greatly boosted the morale of the Chu army.
The Jing army was forced to resist and retreated steadily.
Huang Zhong was frustrated by the deep trenches. The war horses were useless in front of the trenches and even became targets. He simply concentrated his troops and fought step by step, clearing the trenches one by one. He was bound to drive out all the Jing troops in the trenches.
Ding Feng ordered the soldiers and horses in the trench behind to jump out of the trench and fight the Chu army head-on.
Huang Zhong was waiting for this opportunity. When he saw Ding Feng finally showing up, he immediately led his cavalry to kill Ding Feng.
Ding Feng immediately led his personal guards to mount their horses and headed towards Huang Zhong to fight.
I heard that Huang Zhong was a general of the Chu State, with superb strength, especially his archery skills. Ding Feng wanted to test whether this gray-haired veteran had real skills.
Both sides are approaching quickly.
When the two horses met, Huang Zhong took the lead in slashing with his sword. Both the speed and the strength were very powerful. He was really an expert in Kung Fu and could tell when he struck. Ding Feng was shocked by this momentum alone. This power was completely unlike what an old man like Huang Zhong could exert, and he hurriedly raised his sword to resist.
The huge force struck, and Ding Feng's arms were instantly numb, and blood oozed from the wounds.
Ding Feng was shocked.
Before he could react, Huang Zhong had already attacked again. His sword was full of power. The sharp sword skills made Ding Feng, who was already injured, unable to resist. After a few rounds, he was already in danger, and his arms were numb and uncontrollable. .
Huang Zhong had a cold killing intent on his face. He was very martial arts-minded and did not focus on Ding Feng's injuries. Instead, he used normal offensive sword skills to defeat Ding Feng. This is a battlefield, and there cannot be an equal battle. Even if Ding Feng is injured and dies under his sword, no one will say that he is victorious.
Originally, Ding Feng's strength was not as good as Huang Zhong's, and coupled with the pain, it was already clear that he was defeated after a few rounds.
Huang Zhong didn't give him any chance. He quickly aimed at Ding Feng's defensive gap, thrust his knife in, and stabbed Ding Feng in the abdominal cavity. The severe pain caused Ding Feng to grit his teeth, but he still fought hard to kill Huang Zhong without caring about his own life.
This made Huang Zhong admire him.
But, this is a battlefield.
He swung his sword mercilessly and chopped off Ding Feng's head.
Ding Feng's knife fell on Huang Zhong's shoulder, cutting a deep mark on his armor.
Huang Zhonghengdao immediately shouted: "You generals have been killed by me! Why don't you surrender earlier?"
Seeing that Ding Feng was killed, Jing's soldiers had no intention of surrendering. Because the Jing army had a complete set of military regulations, those who died in battle and surrendered would be deprived of their family land and all welfare, and their military merits would be reduced. This is fatal to the soldiers, because they are all sons of farmers and know the importance of land to their families. At the same time, if they die in battle, the high pension will be enough to make their families happy for the rest of their lives.
Therefore, no one is willing to surrender.
On the contrary, if they did not die after this battle ended, the harvest would be even greater.
A military lieutenant shouted: "The sun, moon, mountains and rivers will last forever, and the country of Dajing will last forever! Kill the enemy! Revenge the general!!"
This was the popular slogan of the Jingjun Army, and as soon as it was uttered, it was echoed by thousands of voices.
Astonishing killing roars erupted from Jingjun's army. All Jingjun's troops launched a suicidal charge. Their momentum suddenly surged to the highest level. The terrifying fighting spirit seemed to condense into ferocious tigers above the heads of Jingjun's soldiers.
Huang Zhong was stunned.
I really didn't expect that the Jing army would explode with such amazing unity and fighting power when their main general died in battle and they were leaderless.
Such a change was simply unbelievable in the eyes of Huang Zhong and the Chu army. They could not figure out how the Jing army could have such an abnormal change. This change brought great morale to the Jing army, and at the same time it also greatly increased the Chu army's morale. pressure.
Seeing that the Jing army's counterattack was becoming more and more serious, Huang Zhong had no choice but to gallop forward to regain the Chu army's combat morale. The two sides began a fierce battle at the ferry. No matter how brave the Jing army was, they lost the leadership of their general after all. The outbreak of the war made their front line extremely chaotic. Some troops went deep alone, and some could not stand on the ground. They were defeated by the Chu army one by one. The situation at the ferry became precarious.
At the same time, Xi Zhicai led 30,000 remnant troops to rush towards this side.
