Chapter 333: Serial Fishing with Nets

"Do you have any news from the old customers? As long as it's useful, it doesn't hurt to send this goods to you! Zheng Gong became excited.

Geng Fan's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but turn his head to look at the goods outside.

"Chang'an's food can't be delivered for a while. But ......"

Geng Fan sold a pass, deliberately paused for a moment, and saw Zheng Gong's eager eyes, and continued unhurriedly.

"In the past few days, grain and grass have been transported into the official army camp. Listen to people, a new general Geng from the official army borrowed thousands of stones of grain from the surrounding villages and towns. ”

"Ahh Zheng bowed and screamed, and ordered his subordinates, "Quickly go and investigate!" ”

"Well, that's all I know. Brother, this cargo ......" Geng Fan smiled and looked at Zheng Bow.

"Wait a minute, as long as your news is accurate, I will never break my word!"

"Ben-kun? You, you are the king of the mountain? Geng Fan pretended to be surprised.

"Exactly!"

Geng Fan hurriedly got up and saluted, and kept apologizing, "Rude and rude!" Offended, offended! ”

"It doesn't matter! I think the driver is also a well-informed person, and now is the time for this gentleman to employ people, but would you like to stay to assist this gentleman? Zheng Gong admired the "vision" and "insight" of this Xiongnu businessman, and gave birth to a love for talents.

"This, this ......" Geng Fan hesitated, "Shanjun looks up to me, he shouldn't have refused, but his family is in Chengdu, waiting for some medicinal materials in my batch of goods, so he doesn't dare to stay for a long time." ”

Geng Fan did hesitate, he didn't expect Zheng Gong to be so hasty, if he could really "lurk" beside him, find an opportunity to kill him with a knife, or kidnap him, I don't know if he can put down the rebellion without blood.

"Hey!" Zheng Gong sighed.

"Shanjun, although I can't stay, I don't want you to give you this goods in vain, and I will give you a word for reference." Geng Fan seemed to be unable to bear to be greedy for goods.

"Honor, please speak!"

"As the saying goes, soldiers and horses go first before they move grain and grass! We, the Huns, fought wars, and we all knew that grain and grass were important. Seeing that the current officers and soldiers are short of food and grass, they can only borrow it temporarily, if you can find a way to rob it, or burn it, then you, how long can they support it? ”

Zheng bowed and listened, nodding his head incessantly.

Geng Fan was no more, smiled at the monkey, and ordered Kunda, who was gnawing on the cake in the corner, to hand over the goods.

Zheng Gong returned to his "mansion", and the report also returned, bringing accurate news that the newly rebellious general sent by the imperial court actually forced the surrounding villages and towns to "lose" military rations!

After thinking for a long time, he called Zhang Gu.

"This surnamed Geng has some means, and it is indeed a troublesome thing to raise food on the spot like him!" After listening to the wire report, Zhang Gu also frowned.

"General Zhang, can we take advantage of his lack of food and raise troops first?"

Zhang Gu shook his head, "Shanjun, although we have a lot of people, we have never fought, if we don't train, we will go to the Han army to fight, I am afraid that we will suffer." ”

"How's that for good?"

"Sneak attack! Since he is raising food on the spot, we will continue to sneak attack, as long as his grain and grass are burned, what can he do to me? Zhang Gu suggested.

"Without further ado! Is General Zhang willing to make the first contribution for me? ”

"The last will go!" Zhang Gu happily accepted the order.

Walking out of the mountain king's mansion, he saw the monkey standing far away and smiled at him.

On the second night, the Han army's grain depot was on fire, and the "military rations" that had just been raised were wiped out!

Zhao Hu and Chen Xun hurriedly ran into the camp, but saw Geng Fan leisurely drinking tea with Zhao Lin like a nobody.

"General, where have you two gone? The grain and grass have been burned, and you are still so leisurely! Zhao Hu was sweating profusely, he looked for Geng Fanliang, wanted to persuade him, and dispatched elite soldiers to guard the grain depot, but he couldn't see Geng Fan's shadow at all.

"Burn it, burn it! As long as there are no dead people! Geng Fan smiled slightly.

"What the hell does the general mean?" Zhao Hu was puzzled.

"The proud army will be defeated! I'm raising a proud soldier! Geng Fan got up, "General Zhao, order the army to retreat thirty miles." ”

"What?" Zhao Hu was stunned.

"General Zhao, don't worry!" Zhao Lin also got up, "This is a plan that people offer to General Geng. The art of war, ten rules to surround it, and one hundred to attack it. We have few soldiers, and if we don't let Zheng Gong be arrogant and take the initiative to go out of the city, it will be difficult for us to defeat him. ”

"You can't use such a big bait! Without food and grass, how can we still fight? Zhao Hu was anxious.

"The grain and grass are there! General Zhao, tomorrow you will take 10,000 soldiers to escort the grain and grass and then withdraw to Yanjiagang to garrison. Geng Fan spread out the map and began to lay it out.

"General Chen, you take 5,000 soldiers and go to Baicaopo to ambush, bring enough dry food, and don't light a fire. The thieves who come and go are not careful. Just wait for the fire at the east gate tomorrow night, and go directly into the city! ”

"Ahh Chen Xun was a little confused, looked at the map, and figured out Geng Fan's intentions.

"Then, what about the five thousand soldiers?" Chen Xun asked.

"There are five thousand, I will take it, and garrison the camp to meet it" Geng Fan pointed to a location on the map again.

"General Zhao saw that the camp was on fire, so he divided his troops into five thousand and fought back against the enemy!"

"What kind of ploy is this?" Zhao Hu couldn't see it. Geng Fan's troops are scattered, attacking the city for a while, and defending the camp for a while, what does he want to do?

"It's very simple, you want to capture the old people, turn the tiger away from the mountain, steal the beams and change the pillars, and finally close the door to catch the thief. However, I'm not sure if the bandit leader will fight in person, so let's leave it to your luck! Ha ha! Geng Fan smiled and explained his strategic intentions to Zhao Hu in detail, and Zhao Hu and Chen Xun suddenly realized.

"But, General Geng, will Zheng Gong come out? Can the inner line you have planted open the city gates? How sure are you? Chen Xun was still a little worried.

"The law of impermanence! The situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly, and no one can guarantee it. Therefore, the two generals still have to be vigilant at all times. Geng Fan also became serious.

The plan is no problem, but he is really not 100% sure whether it will succeed.

The Han army pulled out the camp and retreated.

Chen Xun took the lead in leading the team to ambush in a roundabout way. But this night, Zitong City was quiet and did not send troops!

After the light, Chen Xun rushed back to the camp worriedly.

"General Geng, did you make a mistake in your judgment?"

"General Chen, don't be impatient, it's like fishing, it's more patience. You make the brothers work hard, just lay an ambush! Geng Fan was also a little worried, could it be that Zheng Gong saw through his plan? Or are the monkeys and Zhang Gu "exposed"?

Seeing Chen Xun away, he rode to Yanjiagang.

Zhao was guarding the two thousand stone military rations, and he was in a very good mood, he really couldn't understand how Geng Fan hid the grain.

"General Zhao, the food of the defenders is important, but it is also important to encircle, chase and intercept. In case the bandit leader comes in person and runs away from him, I will ask you. Geng Fan handed over a portrait of Zheng Gong to Zhao Hu, and he also had to put some pressure on Zhao Hu.
