Jiang Qin strongly objected to Gan Ning's personal involvement, and said: "General, just now you personally promised that you would not risk your life, and the brothers in this account heard it clearly, how can you go back on your word now?" Or ask the general to sit in the rear, and the last general will lead the team to receive the general into the city! ”

"No...... Gan Ning shook his head like a rattle, and said: "This time is different, this battle is about whether or not the retreat of Lei Bo's army can be blocked, there is no room for loss, you have not entered the city, you don't know the situation in the city, I will be more sure!" ”

Jiang Qin immediately retorted: "The general is wrong, when the end of the year will crisscross the Jiujiang waterway, he will not enter this Hefei City, and the last general is definitely more familiar with Hefei City than the general!" ”

Gan Ningden was speechless, Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin were the overlords of the Jiujiang waterway, and when they arrived in Hefei City, they were equivalent to returning home, and they really couldn't talk about each other with this, but since Gan Ning had made up his mind, he would not give up, his eyes rolled, there was!

"You are all old Huang Li, after Jiujiang was occupied by Yuan Shu, many situations are very different from a few years ago, especially the army garrison is completely different from when Liu Zhijun (Liu Xuan) was governed, and now if you are allowed to enter the city, you will definitely be dizzy!"

"Then please ask the general to send the two personal soldiers who followed the general to the last general to lead the way......"

"That's not good, they are my Gan Ning's important arms, and I feel uncomfortable after leaving for a while!"

The two argued for a long time, and finally Gan Ning once again assumed the authority of his boss, and even said that he would go head-to-head with Jiang Qin, and if Jiang Qin won him, let Jiang Qin go on this trip on his behalf. Jiang Qin didn't dare to make a move with his boss, but he understood in his heart that when it came to martial arts, there was still a big gap between him and Gan Ning, and he might not have fought if he really fought, so he had to agree to Gan Ning's plan in the end, but he asked Gan Ning that once he was exposed, he must not fight hard with the defenders, and he must immediately find a place to hide, and he would lead his troops to storm Hefei to attract the attention of the defenders, so that Gan Ning had the opportunity to lurk in the city.

For Gan Ning, as long as he doesn't stop him from going into battle in person, then everything is easy to say, and he smiled and agreed one by one.

Immediately, Gan Ning selected 100 commanders, chiefs, team leaders in the guard battalion, and even tun chiefs and military marquis to form a commando team, disguised as ordinary people and mixed into Hefei from the four gates, and gathered at the market on Chengnan Street at night, seized the city gate, and let Jiang Qin lead the main force into the city.

Gan Ning pretended to be a merchant this time, pushing a small drum with needles and threads, wooden combs, shoe uppers and other small objects, shaking a small drum similar to a rattle to Hefei, because he was worried that the defenders of the south gate would recognize his appearance, this time he went to the east gate, and after giving the defenders ten copper coins, he entered the city smoothly.

Others also dressed up as woodcutters, vegetable farmers, fishermen, homeless people, etc., and smoothly blended into Hefei City.

After entering the city, Gan Ning didn't run around, he was a merchant, but he was a Xibei goods, if someone really bought something from him, I was afraid that he would show his feet, look at no one left and right, Gan Ning pushed the cart into an abandoned yard, threw the cart aside, leaned on a broken wall and fell asleep, it may be a vicious battle at night, how can you do it if you don't rest?

I don't know how long he slept, Gan Ning suddenly felt movement around him, out of the instinct of a soldier, he stood up with a carp, his eyes looked around while his hand also reached into his arms, and there was a sharp dagger hidden in it......

In the dim light, three ragged people, no, it should be said that the unclothed people looked at him with fearful eyes, it turned out that when Gan Ning suddenly jumped up just now, he inadvertently showed a strong murderous aura of a battlefield veteran, which really scared them, no, two of the three sat on the ground, if Gan Ning took out the dagger again, I am afraid that the three of them will have to pee their pants.

"It's going to get dark so soon...... Gan Ning muttered to himself, and then said to the three non-threatening people, "Who are you?" What do you want to do? ”

The only man standing plucked up his courage and said, "This ...... This is our home...... We reply ...... Come and sleep......"

"This is your home?" Gan Ning was a little strange, this was obviously an abandoned house, and there was no place to shelter from the wind and rain, how could it be their home?

"No...... No...... It's ......"

"Really, isn't it?" Gan Ning said impatiently.

Frightened by Gan Ning, the man stammered even more, and said, "No...... No...... This...... Original ...... Host...... The host is not ...... I don't know where I went...... I...... We are homeless...... Just ......"

Gan Ning understood that his feelings were really breaking into someone else's territory, and he said with a little embarrassment: "Three big brothers, I'm sorry, I'm a merchant, I'm a little tired from house to house, and when I saw that there was no one here, I borrowed it to rest......"

"No...... It's okay to ......."

Gan Ning smiled, and wanted to leave, since this is the main place, it is not good to worry about others here, but after thinking about it, the sky is about to get dark, isn't it too eye-catching to wander the streets at this time? Once exposed, Jiang Qin will not be able to use this to squeeze him for the rest of his life? So the butt just left the ground and sat back, and said: "Three big brothers, I'm sorry, it's getting late, I have no relatives and no reason in Hefei City, and I don't know if the three of you can stay here for a night, and leave immediately tomorrow morning!" ”

The other two seemed to be very timid, and they kept looking at Gan Ning with frightened eyes, and without saying a word, they were still the one who seemed to be a little bold: "But ...... Yes, it's not ...... It's not our home, and this big brother can live as long as he wants...... Yes, as long as the eldest brother is not too shabby......"

"Then thank you three of you......" Gan Ning thanked him, looking at the unkempt and thin appearance of the three people, he felt a lot of emotion in his heart, he had not seen this kind of thing when he was a ranger before, but since Liu Zhang took charge of Yizhou, although he dare not say that every household has become rich, but as long as you are diligent, there is at least no problem with three meals and a grass house sheltered from the wind and rain.

In the past, although Gan Ning was called the Jinfan thief, but the robbery and oppression were those who were rich and unkind, and they did not commit any crimes against ordinary people, and even used their looting proceeds to fund the poor people, because of this, he was quite chivalrous in the county, and ordinary people often gave a thumbs up when they mentioned Jinfan thieves. Seeing the destitute appearance of the three of them, Gan Ning's chivalrous heart jumped up again, got up and took a package from the small truck, which contained six white-flour steamed buns, which he originally used to fill his stomach before the war, don't look at the six, the portion is large, but for him it is just the amount of a meal.

Gan Ning held the steamed bun in his hand and said: "Thank you to the three eldest brothers for taking it in, there is nothing to repay in the next, there are a few steamed buns here, talk about the gratitude, please don't dislike the three eldest brothers......" After that, he took one and handed the rest to the slightly bolder person.

When the white-flour steamed bun appeared in front of them, the eyes of the three of them were straight, smelling the faint sweetness of the steamed bun, they couldn't help but swallow their saliva, how many years have they not heard of steamed bread? No one remembers!

"You're welcome, everyone......" Gan Ning said when he saw that the three of them had no intention of making a move.

But no one moved, not because they didn't want to, because they didn't dare, because they didn't believe it!

Gan Ning had to stuff one in his hand, and said, "Don't dislike it, it's just a few cold steamed buns...... and took a bite of the steamed bun in his hand, and with only one bite, the steamed bun was less than one-third.

The three of them felt the softness of their palms, and only then did they wake up from a dream, it turned out that all this was not an illusion that had appeared in their minds countless times. Well, even if it's a dream, being able to have a full meal in a dream is something worth remembering after waking up from a dream! The three of them looked at each other, and at the same time looked at Gan Ning, who was still a little bolder: "This big brother, this ...... It's really for us...... Target? ”

"Of course, the grace of a drop of water is reciprocated by a spring! The three eldest brothers are kept below, so that they don't have to eat and sleep in the open, which is much more profound than the grace of dripping water, a few cold steamed buns are just a little bit of heart, please don't dislike the three big brothers! ”

"No...... Don't dislike it...... This...... It's too precious, and besides, it's not our place either, this ...... This ......"

"Okay, let's not talk about this, let's eat it, it's too hot, and if you stay any longer, it will be tasteless......" Gan Ning smiled, solved the steamed bun in his hand in three or two, put the remaining two in front of the three of them, and retreated to the corner and sat down.

The three of them thanked again and again, and then couldn't wait to send the steamed bun to their mouths, and the moment the tip of their tongues touched the steamed buns, the three of them showed an expression of intoxication and enjoyment on their faces at the same time, as if this was not a cold steamed bun, but a jade plate of delicacies......

For a hungry person, the amount of a steamed bun is indeed not big, gobbling it up, and in a blink of an eye, all the steamed buns in their hands entered the stomach, and the three of them licked their fingers and palms again, and looked at the remaining two at the same time, but no one moved to take it.

Gan Ning took out a cowhide water bag and drank a sip of water, looking at the three of them lightly.

The bolder man swallowed his spit and said, "Eat, I'll ...... Not hungry ......"

The other two were very righteous, but they didn't want to, one said: "Brother Zhang, I have been relying on you to take care of us for the past few years......" said and took a steamed bun and handed it to the one called Brother Zhang, and said: "This steamed bun should be regarded as our repayment to Brother Zhang, and I will share one with the second baby!" ”

The second baby also said: "Yes, Brother Zhang, Lin and I are three young, and we can't eat so many ......."

Brother Zhang, that is, the one who was a little bolder, looked at the two difficult brothers, took the steamed buns handed by Lin San, tore off about one-third, and said: "Our brothers have said that we will share the blessings and share the difficulties, how can it be so selfish to be a brother, come, let's share and eat......"

Lin San looked at Brother Zhang, took the steamed bun, picked up another one, also tore off about one-third, and stuffed the big part into the mouth of the second baby, the three of them looked at each other and smiled, and ate it.

Gan Ning smiled lightly and nodded, for him, not eating a meal is nothing at all, when he looked at the six steamed buns in the bag, he originally thought that it was exactly the three of them and two of them, but after thinking about it, he wanted to test the character of the three of them, and deliberately ate one himself, in order to see the choice of the three in this situation, obviously, the approach of the three people was very satisfactory to him!

The three of them ate steamed buns, took a broken crockpot from somewhere, took turns to drink saliva, wiped off the water stains on the side of their mouths and thanked Gan Ning.

Gan Ning smiled: "When you go out, you should help each other for the reason......

A few steamed buns quickly pulled up the distance between the two sides, "pop, pop" sound, the four of them slowly became familiar, don't think crooked, now just turned into autumn, mosquitoes are still very rampant, the four people can't help biting, from time to time slapping mosquitoes sucking their blood.

In a short conversation, Gan Ning learned that these three people are Hefei natives, surnamed Zhang's name is Zhang Shou, thirty-one years old this year, the family originally had a few acres of thin fields, a few years ago Yuan Shu just occupied Huainan when he posted an official list to raise taxes, when he was young and vigorous, he saw the heavy taxes on the list at that time and scolded a few words, but was listened to by Yuan Jun who was guarding the list of texts, and he was escorted to the then Hefei Order, the county commander was about to kill chickens and monkeys, and immediately sentenced to the crime of defaming the court and attempting to rebel, There is only one way to die when this crime is confirmed, Zhang Shou's parents only have this only son under their knees, how can they be willing to send the white-haired people to the black-haired people, the two old men sold the land and sent it to the county commander overnight, which gave him back his life. After losing the fields and houses, Zhang Shou's wife couldn't bear the hardship, returned to her parents' home, and the family of three could only live on the streets of Hefei. Later, he met these two babies and Lin San, these two people also suffered similar to Zhang Shou, the three of them were connected by the same disease, so they worked together in this city to live by begging and doing odd jobs......

Speaking of sadness, the four of them sighed.
