Chapter 257 Jinfan Thief

"Sun Yu was ordered by Sun Quan to monitor the generals of Jiangxia. At present, Lu Su, the left governor, has been left in Xiakou, but Sun Yu, the right governor, is stationed in Lukou. Well, Lu Su may have a large surname for being deprived of his military power.

Liu Feng thought about it a little and soon figured out what was at stake.

If Zhou Yu leads the army to fight, Liu Feng is really a little scrupulous. After all, water war is not his strength.

If Lukou's commander is Lu Su, Liu Feng will also be a little afraid.

Lu Su, although he is not as clever as Zhou Yu, but he governs the army rigorously. If he relies on the benefits of the water army and defends according to danger, it is not easy for Liu Feng to break through his army.

But now that Wu Jun's commander has been replaced by Sun Yu, Liu Feng is not worried at all.

The Sun clan, except for Sun Jian and Sun Ce, are under Sun Quan, and they are all a bunch of rice buckets in leading troops. No one knows this better than Liu Feng.

"Sun Yu is not worried. It seems that the only thing we need to worry about now is Gan Ning. This person has followed Zhou Lang for many years. He has learned a lot from Zhou Yu and can't be underestimated."

Gan Ning has a few catties and taels, and Liu Feng is still very clear.

If there is a battle on land, there is only one Gan Ning. Even if he has ten thousand heroes, Liu Feng will not be afraid.

The problem now is that although Liu Feng's army has 100,000 people, he lacks excellent generals who are good at water warfare.

And the battle over the river is mainly water war. An excellent general is sometimes enough to affect the victory or defeat of the whole war.

Xu Shu pondered for a long time, with a strange smile on his facial features. He said, "I heard that Zhou Yu was seriously ill and could not be cured in those years. Gan Ning once went to Linxiang in person and asked the lord for Zhang Zhongjing to treat Zhou Yu's illness. I don't know if this happened?"

Of course, Liu Feng remembers this.

At the beginning, Gan Ning came to Hunan in the name of business. Later, in order to provoke the relationship between Lu Su and his superiors, Liu Feng pretended to inadvertently revealed it to Lu Su in a meeting.

Later, this matter spread widely, and even the people in the city praised Gan Ning's righteousness to Zhou Yu.

Xu Shu, such a resourceful man, must have something to say. At this time, he suddenly mentioned such old things, and there must be no intention.

Liu Feng's eyes turned and suddenly realized, "Juan Zhi, do you want to..."

Xu Shu smiled and said nothing.

Obviously, Liu Feng guessed his intention.

The corners of Liu Feng's mouth were hooked, and a tid smile appeared. At the moment, he rolled his sleeves and shouted happily, "Come on, prepare the pen and ink for me quickly."

..............................Three days later, a letter was sent to Lukou Ganning.

At this time, Gan Ning and Sun Yu have led more than 10,000 Eastern Wu water troops to Lukou and are preparing to go to Chibi, not far west of Lukou, where they will block Liu Feng's eastward advance.

In those years, Zhou Yu chose such a battlefield that was unfavorable to the Northern Army, completed his brilliant battle that shocked the world, and completely shattered Cao's dream of unifying the world.

Since the Battle of Chibi, Wu has built three fortresses to defend Chaisang from west to east along the Yangtze River.

These three fortresses are Bachu, Lukou and Xiakou.

Baqiu is located on the west bank of Dongting. It was originally the key place to control Xiangshui and the Yangtze River. However, because there was no danger to defend, in the face of the attack of Liu Feng's two armies, in the case of insufficient troops, the Wu people had to give up the first fortress.

At present, the second fortress of Lukou has become the key to defending Jiangxia.

Because once Lukou falls, Liu Feng's main force**, the third fortress, Xiakou City, will face a north-south attack from the enemy from Hanshui and the Yangtze River. In this case, Xiakou City can't be defended at all.

And if Xia's mouth is lost, it means the fall of the whole Jiangxia County.

Therefore, Lukou is the top priority.

If you want to defend the land, you must block the enemy from the Red Cliff.

According to Gan Ning's speculation, after attacking Bachu, Liu Fengjun should immediately go down the river and seize Chibi as soon as possible to seize the geographical advantage.

But to Gan Ning's surprise, Liu Feng's 70,000 to 80,000 land and water army did not move for a few days after occupying Bachu.

The enemy's silence made Gan Ning a little confused about his intention. At this time, Liu Feng's letter made him even more suspicious.

"Well, this is mostly a letter of surrender..."

Gan Ning opened the silk book with psychological preparation, but he was quite surprised after reading it.

This is not a letter of surrender. Whether in terms of tone or wording, it is more like a normal greeting between old friends.

Liu Feng mentioned Linxiang for a while in the letter, recalled the joy of drinking and singing, and praised Gan Ning's boldness.

In short, this is a seemingly complete "narration letter", at least on the surface.

"Liu Feng, what on earth did you think?"

Gan Ning held the letter in his hand and read it several times, but still couldn't figure out what the meaning of this letter was.

When he was suspicious, his own soldiers hurriedly came to report that Sun Yu, the right governor, had arrived.

"It's such a coincidence. Please come in quickly."

Gan Ning casually took the letter into his arms. At that moment, he came out of the account to greet him. Just as he wanted to move his footsteps, the curtain was suddenly lifted.

Sun Yu strode in and gasped a little, as if he came in a hurry.

Sun Yu was also followed by several relatives with tigers and bears, all of whom looked at each other and looked awe-inspiring.

There seems to be something wrong with this atmosphere.

Gan Ning calmed down and said with a smile, "Why didn't the governor send someone to squeak in advance? I also went out early to welcome the governor."

"I also patrolled the camps, passing by here temporarily, and came to see Xingba by the way."

Sun Yu squeezed out a little smile from the corners of her mouth, but in Gan Ning's opinion, she was a little grinning.

Gan Ning said quietly, "So that's it. I don't know what the governor can do?"

Sun Yu swaggered into the tent, looked around, and seemed to ask casually, "Xingba, when I was just entering the camp, I seemed to listen to the comments of the soldiers, saying that the boy Liu Feng sent someone to see you."

Hearing this, Gan Ning immediately realized Sun Yu's intention.

What happened to pass by, it was clearly the ears and eyes placed in my camp who reported this to you, and you came in a hurry with suspicion.

After understanding this section, soon, Gan Ning suddenly thought of the intention of Liu Feng's letter.

He, Gan Ning, is Zhou Yu's old general. Everyone knows that he feels Zhou Yu's kindness. Even if Sun Yu wants to use him, he must be defensive against him.

Liu Feng must have speculated about this, so he deliberately wrote such a letter. On the surface, it seemed to be just a tending friendship, but in fact it was a alienation.

After thinking about all kinds of interests, a chill suddenly surged on Gan Ning's back.

He changed his mind quickly. Before he could think about it, he said, "Liu Feng did send someone here, but he just sent a letter. I was going to send this letter to the governor, but I didn't want the governor to come first."

"Here's the letter, please take a look." With that, Gan Ning took out the letter in his arms and presented it with both hands.

It was Sun Yu who heard the news that he was afraid that Gan Ning and Liu Feng would "eye" so he rushed to test it.

Now Gan Ning presented the letter without hesitation. Such a calm action naturally alleviated a lot of suspicion in Sun Yu's heart.

"This letter is a personal thing of Xingba. How can I take it apart?" Sun Yu said with a smile that his attitude was very different from before.

Gan Ning said seriously, "Liu Feng is my enemy of Eastern Wu. Although this letter is my personal letter, it is related to state affairs. Please take a look at it."

Gan Ning's non-public and private attitude secretly made Sun Yu a little ashamed. He wanted to give up, but driven by curiosity, he still took the letter with a smile.

After a long look, they are indeed narrations, and there seems to be nothing different.

But just as Sun Yu was about to return the letter to Gan Ning, his eyes suddenly moved.

He found that there were several places in the letter that had been painted, and the places that had been painted, the inference before and after, seemed to involve the name of the place and the word of time.

Suddenly, Sun Yu's face turned gloomy again.

"Xingba, why are there traces of painting in this letter?" Sun Yu asked in a low voice.

Gan Ning took a look and casually said, "It was originally in the letter. Maybe Liu Feng wrote it wrong and smeared it casually."

Gan Ning was born as a military general and was not elegant. He usually wrote a wrong letter and wrote it casually. He rarely took care of the beauty. Therefore, in his opinion, it is normal to have painted marks in the letter.

However, this mark aroused Sun Yu's suspicion.

At the moment, he sneered and pointed to the smear on the letter and said, "It's okay to write a wrong word in the letter, but why is it all related to the time of the place name? General Gan, don't you think this is too coincidental?"

Sun Yu even changed his name. With such a question, Gan Ning immediately understood what he was implying.

Sun Yu's repeated suspicions angered Gan Ning at the same time.

You should know that this "Jinfan thief" is not a "good man". Once upon a time, he had done the business of robbers and was famous for his fierceness.

Previously, Sun Yu put his ears and eyes in his camp, and Gan Ning endured it. At this time, he was openly suspicious of his communication with the enemy. How could such an approach not anger Gan Ning?

At the moment, Gan Ning's face darkened and he said coldly, "I've already said that it was the same when I got the letter. I, Gan Ning, have always been open and aboveboard and have a clear conscience. General Sun, do you like to believe it or not?

The blatant collision choked Sun Yu with disiose.

Under Sun Yu's suspicion, he was even more angry.

He was waiting to have an attack on the spot, but he turned to think that Gan Ning was not a probable role, and how could he act recklessly in the current situation of the enemy?

Under the balance, Sun Yu's face immediately turned cloudy and said with a smile, "Xingba, you misunderstood. I just asked casually. Xingba, you are loyal to my Sun family, how can I not believe it?

Gan Ning snorted coldly and ignored him.

Sun Yu's face was embarrassed and it was not good to stay for a long time, so she said a few irrelevant words and hurried away on the grounds of patrolling the camp.

As soon as he came out of Ganning Camp, Sun Yu immediately looked angry and gritted his teeth and muttered, "Gan Xingba, you are a Jinfan thief..."
