Ding Fengnian joined the army less and successively belonged to Gan Ning, Lu Xun, Pan Zhang and others. He was brave and good at fighting, and turned to the generals. In the first year of Jianxing (252), the battle of Dongxing broke Wei Jun's qiantun and removed the generals. When Wu Jingdi Sun Xiu was in power, Ding Feng planned to kill Sun Chen, the powerful minister.

For Sun Xiu to regain the imperial power, he worshipped the general and began to master the military and political power of Wu. In the third year of Yong 'an (260), he was in charge of Xuzhou animal husbandry on holiday. Later, Hou Sunhao of Wucheng proclaimed himself emperor, was promoted to right fu and left, and died in Jianheng for three years (27 1).

Zhuge Ke, a Soochow teacher, led the generals to resist. People said to Zhuge Ke, "The enemy heard that your teacher came in person, and they ran away when we landed." Only Ding Feng thought, "That's not true. The enemy mobilized domestic forces and transferred all the troops from Xuchang and Luoyang on a large scale.

You must have a clear goal. How can you go home empty-handed? We can't expect the enemy to retreat without fighting. Only by making full preparations can we defeat the enemy. "Zhuge Ke ashore, Ding Feng and generals nqa, Lv Ju, Liu Zan and others along the mountain road to the west.

Ding Feng said, "The army is moving too slowly now. If the enemy occupies favorable terrain, it will be difficult for us to confront it. " So, Ding Feng left the marching route of the army and led his 5,000 soldiers and horses forward alone.

At that time, the north wind was blowing, and Ding arrived at the front line in two days by boat and occupied Xutang (now Anhui). It was very cold and it snowed heavily. General Wei Jun talked about drinking. When Ding Feng saw that the enemy's vanguard troops were few, he said to his opponent, "It's time to make meritorious deeds and receive rewards!" Let the soldiers take off their armor and helmets and use short weapons.

Wei will make fun of them when he knows it, and he won't guard against it. Ding Feng led the troops to kill Wei Jun and cut off Wei Jun's front camp. At this moment, Lv Zhi and others' troops arrived and defeated Wei Jun together. After the war, he was promoted to the general of exterminating Kou for his meritorious service, and entered the hometown of the capital.
