Chapter 935 Everything Is Ready

Three days later, Gao Chong naturally did not order his troops to join the rebellion with the Tan family in the city, because the tunnel leading to Bin County had not yet been dug. Gao Chong was prepared with both hands this time and was determined to break through the city in one go.

Although the Tan family was dissatisfied, they did not dare to say anything more and could only listen to Gao Chong's words. After all, the Tan family's attempt to capture Bin County with only 500 private soldiers was really a fantasy.

This was a full month of waiting. A month later, the Xiliang Army finally dug the tunnel leading to the city.

"Captain, the tunnel has now extended to the west gate of Bin County. In compliance with the command of the governor, it has not extended to the center of the city." Ding Feng said with his fists clasped. He had personally led the team to supervise the excavation of the tunnel for the past month.

"Well, we can't dig into the center of the city. There are too many people there. If you are not careful, you will be exposed. In this case, the hard work of tens of thousands of my soldiers for a month will be in vain." Gao Chong nodded.

Then, Gao Chong's expression became serious, he glanced at the generals on the left and right, and said in a deep voice: "The decisive battle against Bin County will be launched soon. All generals, listen to my orders."

"Please give me your orders, Grand Governor!"

After not fighting for a month, these proud and powerful generals were naturally itchy. Now that they heard that Gao Chong was finally planning to launch a general offensive, everyone couldn't help but feel happy and ready to make military exploits and get rewards.

"Gan Ning!" Gao Chong looked at Gan Ning first.

Gan Ning was overjoyed and said, "Whatever the Governor orders, just give them."

"You will lead three thousand soldiers and go to the east gate of Bin County at midnight tonight to join forces with the Tan family. After breaking through the east gate, you will set up a formation at the east gate to snipe the Jiangdong army that is gathering."

"Zhu Huan!"

"The general is here!"

"Your governor led 10,000 soldiers, burned the wooden pillars in the tunnel in two seconds, broke through the west gate and entered the city!"

"Here!"

"Ding Feng! You lead five thousand soldiers to ambush in the west to prevent Jiangdong Army from escaping to Lingling County."

"Here!"

Gao Chong's arrangement was quite meaningful. Zhu Huan turned out to be a former Jiangdong general. Due to family reasons, he had no choice but to surrender to the Xiliang Army. If he was arranged to intercept the Jiangdong Army, a soft-hearted person might have endless troubles.

"Grand Governor, since our army has dug through the Ximen Tunnel and can just set fire to the tunnel and rush into the city, why do we still send General Gan into the city?"

Zhu Huan said worriedly: "The Tan family may have bad intentions, and may be an internal agent of the Jiangdong Army. General Gan's trip may be dangerous."

Gao Chong smiled slightly and said, "Xiumu is right, but that's what I want!"

"General Gan led the troops to coordinate with the Tan family. Jiangdong Army is indeed very likely to set up an ambush at the east gate, or even surround General Gan with heavy troops. But in this case, Jiangdong Army's attention will inevitably be on the east gate, and Our army is taking advantage of the situation to rush in from the west gate, how can Jiangdong Army be prepared?" Gao Chong laughed.

"Ah, it turns out that the governor is planning to attack the east and the west!"

Generals Ding Feng, Zhu Huan, and Gan Ning suddenly understood.

"That's right." Gao Chong looked at Gan Ning and said in a deep voice, "Xingba, your task is much heavier than the others, are you sure about it?"

Gan Ning patted his chest and said loudly: "Don't worry, Commander, I will focus all my attention on disciplining Jiangdong Army. There is an empty city to the west!"

A heavy burden means that the credit is equally big. Gan Ning's utilitarianism is quite heavy, and he has always been enthusiastic about undertaking important combat tasks. After the Battle of Chibi, Cao Cao regrouped and attacked Ruwu. It is said that he had an army of 200,000, but Gan Ning dared to lead a hundred cavalry to rob Cao's camp. No one in Jiangdong's army could match his courage except Taishi Ci and Sun Ce. Compare.

Gao Chong nodded happily: "Okay, in that case, at midnight tonight, everyone will act separately, and the governor will personally control the battle. We must take Bin County in one fell swoop and completely pacify Jingzhou!"

"Capture Bin County and pacify Jingzhou!" All the generals shouted loudly and confidently.

It's midnight at the east gate of Bin County.

A Xiliang army of 3,000 men was seen approaching the east gate quickly. The leader was holding a Overlord Sea Sword and had a fierce look on his face. He was none other than Gan Ning.

After Gan Ning led three thousand Xiliang troops to the east gate, he signaled his men to be silent, and then imitated the cry of a fox.

A head poked out from the top of the city and shouted to him in a low voice: "Is he under the command of Governor Gao outside the city?"

"That's right, General Gan Ning, why don't you open the city gate quickly!" Gan Ning also shouted in a low voice.

"It turns out to be General Gan. I have really admired his name for a long time. Please wait a moment, General Gan. I will open the city gate right now!"

The people on the top of the city then whispered a few instructions. Not long after, the two city gates slowly opened. Gan Ning was naturally overjoyed.

"Brothers, follow me and fight in, make great achievements, and do it in one fell swoop!"

Gan Ning shouted loudly. Most of the soldiers and horses under his command were water thieves. They were all eager to make achievements and had a strong sense of utilitarianism. At this moment, they all raised their arms and shouted. They followed Gan Ning one by one and charged into the city with great momentum. .

"Kill!"

"Capture Bin County and capture Sun Quan alive!"

Three thousand elite troops from Xiliang rushed into the east gate in one go, but Gan Ning soon realized something was wrong.

"Okay, stop shouting, stop shouting!" Gan Ning waved his hand to signal his soldiers to shut up, his face turning ugly.

what happened? Why is there no movement at the east gate? Even at night, how could there be no soldiers stationed at such an important place with gates on all sides? Otherwise, wouldn't the enemy be able to capture it casually?

Although the Tan family is a local noble family in Bin County, they don't have such great energy to withdraw all the guards at the east gate, right?

"Tan Yin, Tan Yin!" Gan Ning shouted loudly: "Where are you?"

"General Gan, the villain is here."

I saw dozens of people suddenly running from the street, panting. The leader was Tan Yin. Those around him were probably private soldiers of the Tan family with very low combat effectiveness.

Gan Ning asked in confusion: "How come all the defenders at the east gate were withdrawn? Do you, the Tan family, have so much energy?"

"Hehe, to be honest with General Gan, our Tan family offered to sponsor private soldiers to help defend the city. Hundreds of private soldiers were all arranged in the east gate, and then they drugged all the defenders stationed at the east gate and knocked them unconscious. Now There is no one at the east gate." Tan Yin explained.

"That's it." Gan Ning nodded doubtfully.

"Come with me, General Gan. Now Zhou Yu and Sun Quan are both in the governor's mansion. Zhou Yu is the commander-in-chief of Jiangdong Army, and Sun Quan is its master. As long as these two people can be captured and killed, Jiangdong Army will be in the hands of our army. Come on." Tan Yin greeted.

Gan Ning nodded, waved his hand and ordered the soldiers to follow him, but after thinking about it, the soldiers formed a long snake formation.
