Chapter 155 Ma Di is by no means a mediocre person
The Shu army did not fall into the trap, but turned around and attacked Linxiang, which confirmed to Ding Feng that the leader on the other side was by no means a flower vase.
This guy definitely has something up his sleeve and must be treated with caution.
So Ding Feng wrote a letter to give in and lead his troops to go north as soon as possible. He personally led five thousand Wu troops down the river. At the same time, Ding Feng issued orders to the counties in the name of partial general, asking Lingling, Changsha, and Guiyang counties to send troops to encircle and suppress them.
Jingnan is densely covered with water networks and there are basically no mountainous areas except Wuling. It is not suitable for guerrilla warfare at all. So after luring the Shu army out of Wuling County, Ding Feng had nothing to worry about.
The thief with horns is today!
Soon Ding Feng got the news, and Lingling County and Guiyang County both sent troops and horses to rush for reinforcements. The prefect of Lingling County even sent Lingling's military governor Xing Daorong to prepare to contribute to the encirclement and suppression of the Shu army.
However, the gathering of soldiers and horses in Changsha County was relatively slow, mainly because the Shu army had already entered Changsha County. The counties west of the Xiangjiang River did not dare to send troops, and the local wealthy families continued to work hard.
Only Han Xuan of Luo County gave the quickest response, and the envoy said that he would send troops immediately.
Look at Han Xuan's consciousness. This group of Jingzhou tycoons should reflect on themselves. Have you worked hard for Soochow these years? Have you been lazy at work?
Ding Feng led five thousand troops all the way south from Dongting Lake, and finally arrived in Linxiang ahead of the Shu army.
The Wu army arrived at the foot of Linxiang City, with the Xiang River at their back, and stationed themselves under the city.
Within a few days, more than 4,000 Shu troops arrived near Linxiang and quickly moved eastward to occupy Xuqiu. Yishanbangshui put on an offensive posture, preparing to fight Soochow to the death.
Ding Feng looked at the Shu army's formation from a distance for a long time, and the smile on his face gradually disappeared. The more he looked at the Shu army's formation, the more solemn Ding Feng's face became.
"General Mi, is this really the Ma Di you mentioned who only has appearances and can only talk nonsense?" Ding Feng watched for a long time, and finally turned his head to look at Mi Fang, with a bit of vigilance in his eyes.
"You don't still yearn for Xishu, and you said that on purpose, right?"
Seeing that the Shu army has a neat lineup, advanced and retreated in a measured manner, and the flags and flags are all uniform, how can there be any omissions?
In particular, most of the Shu army were Qiang and Di barbarians, and only a small half were Han soldiers, and they were the old troops of Jingzhou who had just surrendered.
Even if Ding Feng were to do it himself, he would not dare to say that he could do such a good job with the entire army.
However, Ma Su did it, and the leader was in style. Judging from this ability, he is definitely a wizard who leads the army.
Mi Fang mistook me!
Mi Fang was extremely shocked when she saw this posture. The performance of the Shu army was completely out of line with common sense.
Was this really led by Ma Su?
"General Ding, I'm afraid Ma Youchang is no longer what he used to be... maybe it's because his brother died in the battle?" Mi Fang was also a little unsure and could only shake her head bitterly.
"This is a talented person who has conquered the country." Ding Feng sighed and said with a headache.
"It seems that this Ma Su is not as easy to deal with as expected. We should be more careful."
…………
"Ah sneeze!" Liu Yin, who was in the middle of the Shu army, was directing the troops to deploy with a command flag in their hands. He suddenly sneezed and immediately felt a chill.
This feeling... as if his credit had been stolen by others, made Liu Yin feel frightened in his heart.
"General! Are you okay?"
"It's okay. Maybe I caught a cold last night." Liu Yin scratched his head and thought about it as if he hadn't made any achievements recently. It was probably an illusion.
Forget it, let’s get the troops under control first.
It has to be said that Ma Su made a lot of money by promoting Liu Yin. This famous general in the late Shu Han Dynasty was by no means comparable to ordinary people in his ability to lead troops.
In the late Shu Han Dynasty, the only famous generals who could be ranked alongside Liu Yin were Jiang Wei, Zhang Yi and others.
Under Liu Yin's arrangement, the Shu army camped and formed formations on Xuqiu in an orderly manner, ready to attack at all times.
Because he was uncertain about the level of the Shu army, Ding Feng was also highly vigilant and defended himself close to the mountains and rivers. Prepare to wait for reinforcements from Jingnan counties to arrive and defeat the Shu army with absolute numerical superiority.
In the following days, the Shu army and the Wu army launched a certain degree of testing. The fierce performance of the Shu army really opened Ding Feng's eyes.
With only a few dozen cavalry dispatched, four to five hundred of them could be easily defeated. And during the retreat, he was still calm and leisurely, without any chaos at all.
As expected, the rumors were not credible. Ma Di was able to be sent out to take charge of his own affairs. As expected, he had a few tricks up his sleeve.
After several days of confrontation, Ding Feng received news that Han Xuan had arrived with hundreds of people from his tribe. This news satisfied Ding Feng a lot, not only because of the hundreds of soldiers and horses, but also because of Han Xuan's sensible attitude.
Most of the Jingnan gentry were non-violent and non-cooperative towards Soochow, and continued to protest Soochow through laziness and tax evasion. This situation made Ding Feng very dissatisfied. Jingnan had not paid taxes and grain according to the standards for a long time.
There are only a few people among them who are interested and willing to cooperate. Fortunately, Han Xuan is one of them.
"Open the camp gate and let Han Xuan's troops come in." Ding Feng waved his hand and made a decision.
"Set an example to Jingnan's powerful men and don't be lazy thinking about it all day long."
Just when Soochow opened the camp door, Mi Fang suddenly felt something was wrong.
"Wait a minute, General Ding, something seems to be wrong!" Mi Fang looked at him from a distance and immediately looked confused.
"Does Han Xuan have so many cavalry under his command? Last time we met, I remember that he only had seven or eight cavalry under his command?"
Mi Fang's words made Ding Feng come back to his senses and look at her from a distance, then his expression changed.
"Close the camp gate quickly! Han Xuan has a problem!" Ding Feng has better eyesight than Mi Fang. Looking from a distance, he saw the Xiliang horse slipping away from Han Xuan's tribe!
Is this what a Jingnan song should be?
Han Xuan is evil! He secretly received benefits from Shu Han!
The Dongwu soldiers immediately rushed to close the camp gate, but it was already too late.
"It seems that Ding Feng has reacted?" Ma Di couldn't help but raised his eyebrows when he saw the Dongwu formation flags suddenly in chaos and the soldiers closing the camp gate urgently.
"Looks like we can't wait any longer!"
"Soldiers, you know what I'm going to say!"
"Big man, charge!" More than a hundred horsemen of Ma Su's bodyguards got on their horses at the same time and shouted those words for Ma Su.
"kill!!"
Ma Su mounted the war horse again, and the passionate feeling surged into his heart again.
"Soldiers, charge with me! Watch me kill Ding Feng in formation!"
Ma Di once again took the lead and rushed to the front with a silver gun in hand. Ma Su's bodyguard cavalry followed closely behind him skillfully, and at the same time they drew their sabers and attacked him.
Seeing this posture, the soldiers of Soochow turned around and ran away very skillfully without any hesitation.
Can a cavalry charge be stopped? They had all seen that a hundred thousand troops under Hefei City could not surround eight hundred cavalry.
The camp gate was not closed, and Ma Su broke through Soochow's camp gate in just a few breaths!
"Jiangdong rat! Take your life!"
