Chapter 24 - The Sail Thief - Gan Ning!
The captain looked at the feather arrow that had grazed Xiao He's ear, and was so frightened that cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
Xiao He fixed his eyes and saw that standing in front of him was a man with a long scar on his face. And there are a dozen or so minions behind this man.
Looking at the several grain ships next to them, what stood at this time was no longer well-equipped Han soldiers, but pirates wearing burlap clothes.
Xiao He was shocked in his heart, and then looked at the man with a scar on his face in front of him: "Hero, dare to ask why you want to rob my Han grain ship." If it is for wealth, here are forty taels of gold, and it is not a tribute. Please let me go. With that, Xiao He escaped from his sleeve with a bulging bag.
"Forty taels of gold, bring it!"
When Xiao He heard this, the other party accepted the money, and he was overjoyed, and threw the bag at the pirate leader.
I saw the leader of the pirates put the gold on his waist. Then he said, "I'm sorry! I forgot to tell you that I'm not here for money. ”
When Xiao He heard this, he almost spurted out a mouthful of old blood, it was forty taels of gold just now! Note that it's gold, not silver!
"Who dares to be a hero? Why did you hijack my grain ship? Xiao He's eyes narrowed.
"Hahaha, listen up! I'm a good guy - Gan Xingba is also! Today, if nothing else, sir, I'm here for your grain and grass! I heard the man laugh.
When Xiao He heard this, he said coldly: "
When the Han army under his command heard this, they didn't dare to step forward. Xiao He looked at it, angrily snatched the knife in the captain's hand, and slashed at the nearest soldier, only to see that the soldier's head fell to the ground in an instant.
Xiao He looked coldly at the soldiers in front of him and said, "Whoever is afraid of moving forward will end up like him!" ”
When the Han soldiers saw it, they shouted, and slashed at the man.
However, as Xiao He expected, the nearly 100 Han troops on the main ship were all killed by the pirates in front of them in less than a quarter of an hour.
At this time, only Captain Xiao and Xiao He were left on the deck.
Xiao He looked at the man walking towards him at this time, and couldn't help but retreat again and again.
At this time, the captain suddenly burst out, snatched the knife in Xiao He's hand, and said coldly: "Adults, go quickly!" And he rushed forward.
When Xiao He saw it, he hurriedly ran to the side of the boat, jumped directly into the water, and disappeared.
And the man looked at the captain who rushed up with a knife, as if he was looking at a dead man, and before the captain's knife was shot, he only felt a mouthful of fishy sweetness in his mouth. Then he fell.
"Okay, brothers, now we have robbed the grain ship of the Han army, and we have a greeting gift to see King Xiang! Brothers, get into the cabin, steer the boat, and be sure to take all the food and grass out! "Just listen to Gan Ning.
"Boss, isn't the person who dived after him?" At this time, one of his subordinates said.
"Humph! The grain and grass of the Han army are all in our hands, and he can't make any big waves when he is cold, so let him go! ”
"By the way, tell the brothers, when you go ashore, move the grain to the cave and store it! And then set fire to these ships! Gan Ning added.
"Okay!" The minion answered.
"Hahaha! King Xiang, I hope this gift can satisfy your heart! Gan Ning looked at the grain ship of the Han army at this time.
………………
"Report!"
"Say!" At this time, Xiang Yu, who was on the city wall, was introducing Tian Feng to the generals.
As soon as he heard the report from the scout, Xiang Yu hurriedly said.
"King, the Han army is less than five miles away from Shouchun."
"Oh? How many people are coming? Xiang Yu hurriedly asked.
"About 200,000 people!"
"What!" When the generals heard this, they were all shocked.
"Hmmm! Pass my order, let the soldiers immediately prepare for battle, and guard the four gates! Xiang Yu asked calmly.
"Yes!" With that, the herald immediately gave the order.
"Xu Huang listens to the order!"
"The last general!"
"We ordered you to take 20,000 men to guard the east gate!"
"A certain general obeys!"
"Tension, Li Xing!"
"The last general!"
"I order you two to take fifteen thousand men to guard the west gate!"
"Yes!"
Xiang Yu wanted to call it again, but when he got to his mouth, he found that he had no one available!
Tian Feng hurriedly stepped forward and said, "King, please let me guard the south gate for you!" ”
"But, sir, you have no power to restrain the chicken!" Xiang Yu said.
"Hahaha! King, why bother worrying, I'm a good scholar, but I have brains! Tian Feng laughed and pointed to his head.
"Hahaha! Well, then the gentleman will take 10,000 men to guard the south gate. Sir remember, if you can't keep it, just give up and retreat to the city, Sir must not make any mistakes! Xiang Yu instructed Tian Fengdao.
"Subordinates obey!" Tian Feng said, immediately got down the city wall, and walked towards the south gate.
"I hope I can hold it!" Xiang Yu clenched his fists, looked at the sky, and muttered to himself.
