Chapter 18: Zhou Gongjin's Three Strategies
Gan Ning and Huang Xu were more excited, because they were really boring these days, they couldn't practice to help the people, and they couldn't go out of Changsha.
Both of them can't be idle, so they happily set off with people, but the waterway is really slow. This also knocked half of the interest of the two of them. Every day is a hurry.
Three days later, it was finally almost to Jiangling, and it slowed down, because the Viper Hall reported that the 50,000 sailors were looking for Zhou Tai's lair, and they took a few water thieves along the way, which was simply a massacre.
Do you know how much water there is in Jingzhou, just one Yunmeng Daze can't see the edge at a glance, let alone others, and finding a water thief in the vast sea can only be touched.
Gan Ning Huang Xu was no longer in a hurry, and sent a message to Shiyi that he had already arrived near Jiangling, but he didn't dare to get too close to the navy, for fear of being discovered and being killed directly. Weapons were stationed on an island fifty miles away from the Jingzhou naval army
Not worried about being found out at all. As long as Jingzhou discharges the scouts, the news will be heard and flee immediately. It would be safe to go back and forth several times, because the Jingzhou Navy had already reconnoitred several times.
waited for another day, but didn't wait for the Jingzhou Navy to kill, but waited for the deputy gang leader of the Hong Gang "Zhou Gongjin"
As the second brother of the gang leader, it must be no problem to be a deputy gang leader, at first Sun Ce also wanted to be famous, but Shi only did not allow it, because you are a righteous Jiangdong boss in the future, the big brother of the government, what is the matter with you being a deputy gang leader in this gang, let people find out, it's terrible.
Zhou Yu is fine, but better, has more ears, and can justifiably help Hong Gang. Anyway, in the future, they will all assist Sun Ce, who cares.
This time, through the report of the Poisonous Snake Hall, Zhou Yu knew that this time it was the moment of life and death, and he was originally going to Changsha, but after knowing Shiyi's arrangement on the way, he turned around and came to Gan Ning and Huang Xu. It is also to avenge Sun Jian, open the way for his eldest brother Sun Ce, and at least face some water army in Jingzhou in the future.
Zhou Meilang is now seventeen years old, and he hasn't seen Shi Yi for two years, but he often writes letters, and he is extremely angry about Sun Jian's death, but for him, he doesn't have the strength to change everything, but let Shi Yi do it, let alone love this third brother.
Zhou Meilang took a few entourages and a boat to the island where Ganning Huangxu was located.
As soon as I got off the boat, I saw a young man "Brother Yu" running in the distance, although Huang Xu has grown up in the past two years, his appearance has not changed much, the only thing that has changed is his height, thirteen-year-old Huang Xu inherited his father's strength and burlyness, and now he is about 1.75 meters.
Huang Xu rushed over to hug Zhou Yu, he hadn't seen him for two years, Zhou Yu was humble and even better to people. During the year in Changsha, he often took Huang Xu and Sun Shangxiang to play and buy things, and Huang Xu was naturally close.
"Brother Xu, I haven't seen you for two years, you've grown up," Zhou Yu said as he hugged Huang Xu.
"Brother Yu, this is all taken care of by Brother Qi," Huang Xu said
"Hahaha, at the age of thirteen, I am the master of the Hong Gang, and I think I have also received the true inheritance of Uncle Huang" Zhou Yu's old friend is very happy to reunite.
Gan Ning came over and said, "I've seen Deputy Gang Leader Zhou", and now the Hong Gang is the only one who convinces Gan Ning, and he can't beat Gan Ning, but he can play Gan Ning to death.
Gan Ning did not admire Zhou Yu, the second brother of the gang leader, and thought that one day he would replace Zhou Yu as the deputy gang leader.
"You are the master of Gan Xingba Gantang mentioned in the third brother's letter, and you are really angry" Zhou Yu saw Gan Ning as a good guy, and he had a good domineering face, plus a height of one meter nine, he was simply a fierce man.
"Thank you Zhou for complimenting" Gan Ning
The three of them went to the island where the Hong Gang was stationed.
When he arrived at the main camp, Zhou Yu sat down and motioned for Gan Ning to take the main position, because he had just come to the Hong Gang, even if he was the deputy gang leader, he would not come from behind. This is Zhou Gongjin's character, Gan Ning was originally ready to retreat to the second seat. Who knows that Zhou Gongjin is very knowledgeable about current affairs, and he found that he underestimated this person.
However, it does not affect Gan Ning's other psychological state, after all, Gan Ning is still the first in prestige among the two thousand people.
Gan Ning sat down and said, "The deputy gang leader is here, what are you going to do?" ”
"I'm here to help the second brother solve the problem," Zhou Gongjin said with a smile.
"Is there a way for the deputy gang leader to solve our current difficulties and complete the tasks of the gang leader faction," Gan Ning asked
"I have three strategies, it depends on which one the master of Gantang chooses," Zhou Yu said
"Oh? Then please ask the deputy helper to say, "Gan Ning is also a little confused, Nima and others are all one strategy, how can you have three."
"The best policy: take advantage of the weakness and annihilate the enemy's entire army. Taking advantage of the fact that the whole army of Jingzhou Navy attacked Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin, 1,000 brothers rushed into the main village of the navy, burned grain and camp, and another 1,000 brothers poured fire oil and hay on 100 small boats, and directly collided with the Jingzhou boat during the battle between the Jingzhou Navy and Zhou Tai.
The middle strategy: unite with Zhou Tai Jiang Qin, let Zhou Tai Jiang Qin take the initiative to attack, and catch the water army off guard, and then quickly retreat to Daze. At this time, as long as the Jingzhou naval army pursues, our side has two choices, unite with Zhou Tai to set up an ambush to annihilate the pursuing army, or two thousand brothers directly mixed into the water village, burned grain and escaped.
Strategy: only thunder and no rain every night, pretending to be Zhou Tai water thieves every day, only beating gongs and drums, not attacking, tired of the enemy, back and forth for four or five days, our number is limited, it will definitely anger the navy, if the irritating navy we withdraw and then continue to thunder and not rain, if the enemy army sees through, our men with good water nature, all mixed into the bottom of the water, chiseled through the big boat. Zhou Yu stood up, said as he walked, and then sat down and looked at Gan Ning.
Gan Ning was already stunned, he was thinking about killing and killing, but he couldn't think of this. How do you know that the second brother of the helper is so cowhide as soon as he comes, and the strategy has been thought out. It made people's scalp tingle, Gan Ning quickly stood up, "Sir, just now the villain has eyes and doesn't know Mount Tai, please take a seat" Without waiting for Zhou Yu to refuse, he directly lifted it vigorously and lifted it to the main seat.
"Xingba, Xingba, don't be like this, you are the main force in this battle" Zhou Yu quickly stood up.
"If there is no gentleman, the villain doesn't know when he will be able to complete the task of the helper, and please take a seat," Gan Ning said
"Brother Yu, don't shirk it, Master Gan is such a person" Huang Xu assisted
Of course, Zhou Yu wants to sit in the main seat, because He Di is also the second brother of the deputy gang leader and part-time job.
Zhou Yu no longer shirked, and asked the two directly, "Which one do you think we choose?"
"I choose the best policy" Gan Ning likes to be curious
"I'll make a decision" Huang Xu still chose to be stable
Seeing this, Zhou Yu said, "The two brothers chose the right one, then we will make a plan and share the upper and lower strategies."
"Gan Ning listens to the order" Zhou Yu
"I order you to go to all the nearby fishing villages to buy fishing boats as soon as possible in the next few days, and you must reach the white boat, and you also have to buy fire oil hay, and you will take a thousand brothers to do diving training, and if you can reduce the casualties of your brothers, you will be able to listen to my orders when the big war begins."
"No" Ganning
"Huang Xu listened to the order, ordered you to take a hundred people to ride horses, with bells and thistles hanging behind, every day at midnight to beat gongs and drums every other hour, pretend to attack, if the enemy chases out, you are invincible, directly retreat with the cavalry, you must make the thistle behind the horse, causing the appearance of smoke billowing, and by the way, you can make some traps, so that the enemy suffers, when the war comes, you will take a thousand brothers to kill the enemy in chaos, be sure to burn the entire water village, the signal is, the master of Gantang is burning here, if you don't see the fire, don't attack!"
"No" Huang Xu
Okay, go get ready.
Zhou Yu didn't expect that he was the first to be known to the world about the three brothers, and this battle completely sounded Zhou Yu's reputation.
