When Gan Ning was still under Huang Zu, he once shot sun Quan's general Ling Cao in the Battle of Xiakou. Later, because Huang Zu looked down on him, Gan Ning turned to Sun Quan in anger, so that he and Ling Cao's son Ling Tong were subjects. Ling Tong was naturally very red-eyed when he saw the enemy who killed his father, and he confronted Gan Ning several times, thanks to sun quan and Lü Meng and others mediating from it, the two did not make any trouble.
Speaking of which, Gan Ning was also a fierce general in the rendition, and in addition to Ling Cao, who died under him, there were also Deng Long, Huang Zu, Cai Yu, Ma Yan, Zhang Kai, Zhu Guang and other people, and the martial arts were very good. And Ling Tong dared to confront him head-on, on the one hand, the revenge of killing his father was not shared, on the other hand, he also relied on it.
The first time Ling Tong showed his skills was in the Battle of Xiakou, where his father Ling Cao died. At that time, Ling Cao was the first to rush into Xiakou with a boat, only to be shot by Gan Ning. Ling Tong was only fifteen years old at this time, and he was still just a teenager, but he was not afraid, and he struggled forward to regain Ling Cao's corpse.
Ling Tong had this courage at a young age, so Sun Quan also attached great importance to him, and was appointed as the Sima of other departments and took over Ling Cao's troops.
During the Battle of Chibi, Ling Tong was ordered to ambush wulin and intercept the defeated Cao army. However, when Ling Tong saw Cao Cao coming and led the troops to kill, Xu Huang came with his military horses and horses to defeat him, and the two fought a melee, and finally Xu Huang escorted Cao Cao and the others to break through.
Xu Huang is a fierce general who can fight with Xu Chu for more than fifty rounds, and is also a good player in the rendition. Although Xu Huang retreated first in this battle because of the great defeat of Cao Jun, he wanted to protect Cao Cao and did not dare to fight for a long time, and it was a melee between the two armies, not a single challenge, but Ling Tong was able to fight with him without being inferior, which was not bad.
When Sun Quan attacked Hefei for the second time, he won Zhang Liao's plan at Xiaoyaojin, and the forwards Lü Meng and Gan Ning were lured away by Lejin, and Sun Quan had just crossed the Xiaoshi Bridge under the escort of Ling Tong, and Zhang Liao and Li Dian's two large armies were killed. Ling Tong only had more than three hundred men under his command, far less than the Cao army, and Ling Tong had to fight to the death, defeating Zhang Liao and covering Sun Quan's retreat, while he himself was shot several times in the midst of the rebellion, and was lucky to escape.
Of course, this time Ling Tong and Zhang Liao were injured in the battle, and a big factor was caused by Zhang Liao's large number of soldiers and Ling Tong's outnumbered. In the ensuing Battle of Wusu, Ling Tong and Zhang Liao happened to be the vanguard of both armies and were once again encountered on the battlefield. This time, the two fought for fifty rounds or won or lost.
The battle ended with Sun Quan fearing that Ling Tong was not an opponent and ordering Lü Meng to take him back to the camp. However, this is mainly because Zhang Liao's reputation was too great before breaking the Wu Army, not that Ling Tong was already at a disadvantage. Therefore, in terms of the result of the confrontation alone, this time Ling Tong and Zhang Liao ended in a draw.
The next day, Ling Tong once again played again against the famous General Le Jin of the Cao Army, this time the two of them played another fifty rounds and did not distinguish between victory and defeat. This fight alarmed Cao Cao, who personally brought people to watch the battle, and seeing that it was difficult to distinguish between victory and defeat under the fierce battle between Ling Tong and Lejin, he ordered Cao Xiu to release cold arrows to help the battle.
Cao Xiu shot an arrow at Ling Tong's war horse, and Ling Tong was thrown to the ground. However, Le Jin was just about to take the opportunity to stab Ling Tong, but was shot by Gan Ning's arrow in the front door, and he also turned over and fell off his horse. In the end, the two armies of Cao wu each saved people and returned, and the battle was over.
Generally speaking, if two people's martial arts are one level apart in the performance, they usually have a victory or defeat within thirty or fifty rounds. If you can fight more than fifty rounds or still have no victory or defeat, then the gap between the martial arts between the two people is not big, and the longer the battle, the smaller the gap.
Ling Tong could play more than fifty rounds with Zhang Liao and Le Jin, and it was obvious that even if his martial arts were not as good as Zhang Le's, the gap would not be too big. In addition to Ling Tong, Zhang Liao also drew with famous generals such as Xiahou Huan, Zhang Guo, and Tai Shi Ci in the rendition, and the record was very good, at least first-class in the rendition, but slightly inferior to the top masters such as Lü Bu, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei.
Although Lejin's performance is not as eye-catching as Zhang Liao's, he is also a general whom Cao Cao relies on, and his martial arts will not be much worse than Zhang Liao's, and he can also rank among the second echelon.
Therefore, Ling Tong's martial arts are conservatively estimated, and they can also squeeze into the second echelon.
In contrast, although Gan Ning is brave, after all, he cannot be compared with the top masters, the two people actually belong to the same level, the gap is extremely small, and it is difficult to score a high score when it is really fighting. Ling Tong was naturally not afraid of Gan Ning, and with the revenge of killing his father, it was not surprising that he dared to confront Gan Ning everywhere.
