Grassroots Overlord of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 213 The army is not dead

Since leading the army to attack Jingzhou, Taishici has adopted the strategy of joining Zhuge Jin, advancing layer by layer, connecting the beginning and the end, and enveloping the two wings to vigorously eliminate Jingzhou's shoals and fine works on the march. In this way, it can ensure the secrecy of the march of the Jiangdong army and make it impossible for the enemy to grasp their real dynamics.

"Zhuge joined the army. This Jiangxia County, Changsha County was personally pacted by Sun Jian, a broken general several years ago, but now it is occupied by Liu Jingsheng, who is deceiving the world! No one expected that a few years later, Sun Poru would accidentally die in the hands of the treacherous and despicable Huang Zu..." Tai Shici pointed to the location of Jiangxia County and Changsha County on the map and said slightly indignantly. Due to the special relationship with Sun Jian's son Ce, now that Sun Ce has been assassinated, Sun Ce's hatred is naturally passed on by Tai Shici, so Tai Shici's hatred for Huang Zu is also sentimental and traceable.

Tai Shici's words are true. A few years ago, Changsha County, Jiangxia County did belong to the Jiangdong Sun Group. However, in recent years, the main energy of Eastern Wu has been used to pacify the local forces in Jiangdong. There was no time to take care of these two counties, so the two counties were taken advantage of by Liu Biao to lead the army led by Huang Zu.

"The governor of Taishi, marching and fighting, is the most taboo to use emotions! I hope the governor will keep a calm mind!" Zhuge Jin looked at Tai Shici with concern and said.

Zhuge Jin, Ziyu, is broad-minded, warm and honest, erudite and resourceful. He is the elder brother of Zhuge Liang, a super counselor who later became famous in China. At this time, Zhuge Liang was only a 17- or 18-year-old teenager, and was studying under Mr. Shuijing Sima Hui.

When Tai Shici heard the words, he restrained his inner sadness and hatred, squeezed his mouth and nodded slightly to Zhuge Jin. At this time, a lieutenant hurriedly entered the tent.

"Report to the governor of Taishi, the vanguard governor Ling Cao was unfortunately killed by the enemy general..." The battalion lieutenant nodded on one knee and said to Tai Shici.

"What? General Ling was killed by the enemy? ...", Taishi Ci heard the words and looked doubtful: According to the intelligence, there is no army stationed and wandering nearby in Jingzhou. It can kill Ling Jue. How many generals in Jingzhou have such strength? You can count it with your fingers. Huang Zu, the governor of Jiangxia County, Huang Zhong, the governor of Changsha County, and Liu Pan, the governor of the Public Security County... However, Huang Zhong is participating in the battle against Yuanshu in Huainan at this time, and he is in the distant Hefei; and Liu Pan can't come to support Huang Zu. At this time, it is even more impossible for Huang Zu to appear on the battlefield outside the city.

The only possibility is that Gan Ning kills Ling Cao. When Tai Shici thought of this, his face changed slightly. He thought to himself: Shit, Brother Xingba, how can you kill Ling Jue, the love of Lord Sun? After that, how can I introduce you to the Sun Lord? ...According to the previous agreement between Taishici and Gan Ning: Gan Ning killed some Jiangdong soldiers, so as to gain the trust of Huang Zu and lay a good foundation for fighting against the water at the critical moment in the future. At the same time, he can also take the opportunity to stand out and attract the attention of the senior management of the Jiangdong Sun Group. In this way, Gan Ning will definitely be extremely welcomed when he defected to Jiangdong at this time. It's better to take ten thousand steps back than to go to Jiangdong when he is unknown... However, now, Gan Ning actually killed Jiangdong's sharpshooter, which gives Tai Shici a headache...

Zhuge Jin saw that Tai Shici fell into meditation. He thought that Tai Shici was sad for the loss of a fierce general. After all, he had not officially started the war, so he accidentally lost a fierce general. This is not a good omen... He frowned slightly and stared at the fearful battalion lieutenant. He asked in a low voice. "Captain Han, please explain the situation carefully at that time!"

"Report to the army that General Ling was leading his troops to kill the Jingzhou scouts hidden in the dark. On the way forward, we encountered a young enemy general. He wore the armor of the Jingzhou officer and army, rode a purple war horse, and held a two-stone iron tire bow... The enemy general first shot us in the secret jungle to warn. After scouting, he rushed out of the dense forest and shouted 'Ling Cao, take your life!', and then he shot Ling Dudu to death with 'Shadowless Archery... According to the humble opinion, this man is not only excellent at archery, but also his martial arts are the cultivation of the innate realm. His body is extremely strange, and his mounts are as straight as ghosts, and his body is extremely erratic!" The battalion lieutenant tried his best to restrain the surging fear in his heart and reported with empty eyes.

"Oh, the enemy generals and horses are acting so strangely. How can you escape?" Zhuge Jin asked with a doubtful face.

"This... Lord who joined the army, later the enemy general only injured his subordinates and others, and did not kill..." At this time, the face of the battalion lieutenant showed the happiness of the rest of his life after the disaster. Of course, a series of sweat appeared on his forehead.

"Well, Captain Han, you step back!" Zhuge Jin frowned and ordered. At this time, he was also confused: Why didn't the enemy generals take the opportunity to kill more Jiangdong soldiers? Why did the enemy generals kill Ling Cao?

After Lieutenant Han withdrew from the camp, Zhuge Jin said to the anxious Taishici, "Captain, according to the speculation of the scene at that time, this enemy will come for revenge, as if he and Ling Cao have a blood feud! ..."

"Well... Zhuge's inference is reasonable! Zhuge joined the army, and the enemy generals can shoot Ling Cao with the 'Shadowless Archery'. Jingzhou gets rid of Huang Zhong. Who else can reach the realm of the divine archer?" Tai Shici said with a worried face. The worried face was deliberately disguised by Tai Shici. In fact, he was thinking to himself: This Gan Xingba is really powerful. He not only has excellent martial arts skills, but also has shadowless archery and incredible body skills. This shows that his comprehensive strength is comparable to his own...

In front of Zhuge Jin, Tai Shici certainly pretended not to know Gan Ning. How long can Taishi Ci install this camouflage? When Zhuge Jin heard Tai Shici's question, he could not answer. He could only think sullenly...

In the face of a fierce general, after cleaning up their low mood, they put their eyes on the map and re-planned the strategy of attack...

Besides, Gan Ning took Ling Cao's body back to the camp and sacrificed the dead sweet fire with Ling Cao's head and heart in front of other soldiers. This is an ancient ceremony for the Miao people to pay tribute to the dead warriors.

At this moment, there was a lot of crying in the camp, and even Gan Ning couldn't help crying. Even if Gan Ning was very painful, he also knew that there was no medicine for regret in the world. If he knew that Gan Huo would die in Jingzhou and kill him, he would not take them into Jingzhou. The soldiers who follow Gan Ning are all Gan Ning's young soldiers and Miao Zhai.

On the second day, Gan Ning, with a gloomy expression, ordered 100 soldiers to maintain the best state and hide their whereabouts. Of course, he deliberately told the soldiers not to hate the Jiangdong soldiers until he killed the murderer Ling Cao. He repeatedly shouted to his subordinates: Gan Huo died, just the wrong time, the wrong place, and an unexpected event. Everyone should keep calm and treat the current rapidly changing situation rationally...

This is the essential difference between a wise general and a fierce general. When you encounter the same thing, such as Lv Bu and Xiahou Chun, if you don't completely kill your enemies and enemies, you will have trouble sleeping and eating, and your mood will be extremely abnormal...

After that, he led four scouts back to Jiangxia City. On the way, Gan Ning and his party met Su Fei.

Su Fei looked at Gan Ning with an angry face and knew that he was wrong: it was absolutely unfair for Gan Ning to act as a scout; he tried his best to recommend Gan Ning to Huang Zu, but Huang Zu didn't buy it. In this way, he felt sorry for Gan Ning, so when he learned that the Jiangdong army invaded Jiangxia County, he personally came to visit Gan Ning, who was on the front line.

Without waiting for his words, Gan Ning arched his hand on the horse and said angrily, "General Su, Xingba's department is an outsider. He is not familiar with the situation around Jiangxia City at all. How can we act as a servant? Nowadays, dozens of Xingba's subordinate brothers have died in vain..." Gan Ning will also lie about the military situation. Obviously, one person died, but he insisted that dozens of people died...

"Oh, Gan Sima, don't be angry! This time, the Eastern Wu army came fiercely... According to statistics, we have lost nearly a thousand scouts in the past few days! Gan Sima, through the general's efforts, General Huang has agreed to add your staff to the general's command!" Su Fei was not angry with Gan Ning's rudeness to himself, but said in a warm voice.

"Oh, Xingba originally planned to leave Jingzhou. Since General Su thinks highly of Xingba so much, Xingba is willing to serve the general! It's only the general's head!" Gan Ning said with a slightly slow face.

"Gan Sima, I would have known your extraordinary ability, and your soldiers fought bravely! Gan Sima, I will promise you that as long as you build military achievements, I will guarantee you to be promoted!" Su Fei said solemnly to Gan Ning. Su Fei felt that if Gan Ning could establish military achievements in the battle against the Jiangdong Army, there was no reason for Huang Zu not to reward Gan Ning.

When Gan Ning heard Su Fei's promise to him, he thanked him.

Su Fei smiled at Gan Ning and waved his hand at the same time, signaling Gan Ning and his party to join the phalanx behind him. Su Fei led his troops forward another 50 miles, and received 100 surviving scouts along the way. After that, he returned to Jiangxia City on the same road.
