"Despicable!"

"Shameless!"

After Lu Meng woke up, he saw Gao Ran and Yan Liang, and coldly spit out these two words, and closed his eyes. It's like saying, "Grandpa doesn't want to deal with you two bastards!" ”

"You ......"

Yan Liang was about to have a seizure, he had already felt guilty for accidentally letting Lu Meng escape before, and now that a party had said such a thing to him, he really wanted to chop him with a knife.

However, Gao Ran's eyes were quick, and he quickly stopped him: "Old Yan, why bother to meet him in general!" And to dissipate the anger, His Majesty's task of dominating the world is more important. ”

Yan Liang snorted coldly, and then his anger was temporarily extinguished.

Gao Ran regretted that he had brought him over, but now it was useless to say anything, so he turned his head and looked at Lu Meng.

With a "clang", a treasure knife fell in front of Lu Meng, but it was Gao Ran who threw his own to, well, the kind without a scabbard.

When Lu Meng was a little blinded, Gao Ran said coldly: "Since you want to die, then pick up and cut it yourself!" ”

Hearing this, Lu Meng looked at Gao Ran in disbelief.

Gao Ran turned a blind eye to this, and just said, "Or, you can try and see if you can kill the deputy governor." ”

Lu Meng's body was shocked, and he slowly picked up the treasure knife on the ground, looked at it carefully, and muttered, "It's really a good knife!" A good knife that kills without seeing blood. ”

"Bang Dang~"

But after Lu Meng finished speaking, he still put the treasure knife on the ground. His eyes looked directly at Gao Ran, and he said without fear: "If you have the ability, you can kill Lu, and you don't need to pretend to be here here." ”

"Humph!"

Gao Ran snorted angrily and said, "If Your Majesty hadn't said to spare your life and not need to be taken prisoner, Deputy Governor Yan would have hacked you to death long ago." ”

After speaking, Gao Ran flicked his sleeves and strode away.

Yan Liang bent down and picked up the treasure knife on the ground, and then left, but it was the same, leaving a cold snort when he left.

"Emperor Ming?"

Lu Meng was a little confused: "Why did he want to keep Lu?" Is it to show off your might? Or do you want to torture Lu? Or is it to undermine His Majesty's prestige? So as to take the land of Wu? ”

After that, Lu Meng was like a madman, constantly talking to himself, ignoring everything else......

Gao ran out of the room and laughed.

Yan Liang came out and saw his appearance, and couldn't help but be curious: "Old Gao, what kind of play are you singing?" ”

Gao Ran smiled and said, "Lu Meng's surrender is not far away. ”

"Huh?"

Without waiting for Yan Liang to ask, Gao Ran said, "Let's go, go see Lu Su." ”

"Okay."

Yan Liang had no choice but to swallow the words back in his mouth, and silently handed over the treasure knife in his hand.

"Thank you!" Gao Ran took it and put the knife into the sheath.

When I came to Lu Su's room, I saw him sleeping. Gao Ran knew that this was not the case, what was he sleeping in the daytime, but to express an attitude - he didn't want to deal with them.

Looking at Yan Liang's frowning brows, Gao Ran smiled bitterly and said to Lu Su: "Lu Dudu, Gao knows that you can hear it, and he also knows that your mood is not smooth, but defeat is defeat, why bother?" You're right? ”

The words fell, but no one answered for a long time, Gao Ran couldn't help but shake his head.

"Bah~"

Yan Liang couldn't help it, and shouted: "Lu Zijing, don't be ignorant of good ......."

"Old face, old face......"

Gao Ran was about to pull out the knife from the sheath, hurriedly stopped it, and persuaded in a low voice: "Don't worry, if it doesn't make sense now, it doesn't mean it won't make sense in the future." After a while, when Sun Ce was captured, he would naturally serve His Majesty without the object of his allegiance. ”

These words, which were said to Yan Liang in time, were also said to Lu Su.

However, Lu Su still didn't reply, not even the slightest movement, as if he was asleep.

"Lao Gao, look at his ......"

"Forget it, the war matters."

Gao Ran was also a little unhappy in his heart, but he was not carried away, and pulled Yan Liang away, but there was more gloom in the south of his heart.

"Lao Yan, it's almost time to rest for three days, let's get ready and go! Otherwise, Zhou Dudu is afraid that he will be in a hurry. ”

Yan Liang nodded in response, and said, "Lu Su is really too unworthy of a son, do you want to teach him a lesson?" ”

"Are you going?"

Gao Lan's face turned dark, and he said, "Then when the time comes, he will join you in front of His Majesty?" ”

Yan Liang was stunned for a moment, and said suddenly: "Eh...... That's it! ”

Gao Ran ignored the goods and walked back to the room quickly. Write a letter directly, and then call the guards at the door, and ask them to call the soldiers who manage the carrier pigeons and send them to Chengdu.

Half a day later, the army set out.

Came to the riverside again, but here can only vaguely see the signs that the Wu army has been stationed, only the wharf in the water village is still there, but it has been remodeled and has become the thing of the Ming army, and the flag of the Ming army is hung high.

"High Deputy Governor!"

"You've been waiting for a long time, Gao is really sorry."

"Where is the deputy governor of the high, the brothers are tired, and there are a large number of prisoners who need to be placed, so naturally it will take time, and it can be completed in just three days, which really makes Cheng Zhi admire!"

"Haha! It's over! ”

Gao Ran laughed out loud and asked, "I wonder how Old General Cheng is now?" ”

Although Cheng Pu is the deputy governor of the navy, there are still many people who are willing to call him "General Cheng", if nothing else, because he could bring back sweet potatoes and other things from thousands of miles back then.

Just a glance is one of them!

"Shang Neng has three bowls of rice and two catties of meat!"

"General Cheng is in good health, it couldn't be better!"

After the chat, Gao Ran asked, "I wonder where Governor Zhou is now?" Are we leaving late? ”

"I have received a reply from the governor a few days ago, and I will go ashore in three days, and it is almost the right time." Cheng Zhi replied.

Gao Ran nodded and said, "That's good, let's cross the river and set off quickly!" ”

"Yes!"

An army of 150,000 crossed the river, and its momentum was overwhelming. In addition, most of the Ming army are cavalry troops, and even the infantry army has a lot of war horses, which looks huge and incomparable!

"It seems that Zheqicheng has another contact with Lu Su and the others!"

Ochre City, a new city south of the mouth of the river, was built by Sun Ce to support the mouth of the city because he felt threatened by the Ming army in the north. At that time, the whole territory of Yangzhou was still in the hands of Sun Ce, the so-called was just in case, and later, as he thought, the city in Jiangbei was constantly lost, if it were not for the Ming army and the navy were still overseas, even the wet mouth might not be able to be kept.

After crossing the river, Gao Ran said goodbye to Cheng Zhi and went straight to Ochre City. Cheng Shi went west and went to Poyang by water.

Arriving at Ochre City, Gao Yan felt much taller than the Ochre City in the intelligence.

Naturally, it is an illusion, but it also shows how extraordinary the city of ochre is. All the stones are stacked, telling the extraordinary reason.

Yan Liang didn't look at it, and said with a disdainful face: "It doesn't look bad, but what use can it be except for working people and losing money?" Can it still stop the catapults in the army? ”

"Report!"

Without waiting for Gao Ran to reply, he flew over.

"Deputy Governor Gao and Deputy Governor Yan, after investigation, there is nothing to make stone bullets within a radius of 100 miles."

"Huh?"

Yan Liang's face immediately turned unpleasant, and he shouted: "Nonsense, can they still boil the stone and eat it?" ”

"Old Yan, don't worry."

Stopping Yan Liang, Gao Ran looked at the rider and said, "Are you sure you didn't say anything wrong?" ”

"Neither right nor true. The requirements for stone bullets are not low, and the first thing is that they must be hard enough. Most of the stones within a radius of 100 miles are relatively soft and not suitable for stone bullets. ”

After a pause, he rode and said: "Of course, there is also a reason for not digging deeply, but in this way, it will inevitably consume a lot of manpower and time." ”

"In other words, in addition to the ones we brought, if we want more stone bullets, we have to dig slowly?" Gao Ran understood it instantly, but for the sake of Yan Liang, he opened his mouth and asked.

"That's right!"

Gao Ran pondered for a moment and said, "One day, give you a day to dig stones, be sure to prepare as much as possible." ”

Then he turned to Yan Liang and said, "Wu Di is really handsome, if you can think of these things and prepare in advance, I am afraid that there will be a shortage of stone bullets in the next war." ”

Yan Liang said: "What is this? Didn't you have it before! ”

Before, that was a long time ago. However, having said that, Yan Liangxin still felt a little awkward, after all, he was used to living a rich life, and he was naturally not used to living a poor life suddenly.

Gao Ran nodded and said, "However, this matter still needs to be notified to Governor Zhou and General Cheng to avoid accidents." ”

Yan Liang also nodded and asked, "Then what now?" ”

"Just withdraw!"

Gao Ran said: "Don't be reckless, insist on attacking the city." On the contrary, it may be able to confuse the Wu army in Ochre City. ”

"Well, that's right. Then withdraw! ”

Withdrawing to the camp, Gao Ran immediately wrote two more letters, informing Zhou Yu and Cheng Zhi.
