The eighteenth time, the money and grain Gan Ning came to invest
Pang Ji smiled bitterly again, he regretted running for Huang Zu. This Zhang Yi is really difficult, although his words are not boundary, but he always points to the point.
Pang Ji knew that it was difficult to say anything else at this time, so he had to say directly: "Although Huang Jiangxia (Huang Zu's official position Jiangxia Taishou) loves his son, he values money more. If the envoy insisted on asking for so much grain, Huang Jiangxia might give up redeeming Huang Jie. ”
When Zhang Yi heard this, he pretended to frown, and said dissatisfiedly: "Huang Zu is so stingy? ”
"Indeed!"
Zhang Yi seemed to have been given a soft underbelly, and couldn't help asking: "In that case, how much money is Huang Zu going to use to redeem Huang Jie?" ”
"Five thousand stone grain and grass." Pang Ji said.
"Huang Zu is wishful thinking!" Zhang Yi sneered and said, "Thirty thousand stone of grain, plus ten horses." ”
"I can persuade Huang Jiangxia to come up with 10,000 stone of grain, and I can't do anything else!" Pang Ji simply played the bachelor.
Zhang Yi snorted coldly: "Twenty thousand stone of grain, ten horses, plus ten big ships." If Huang Zu still doesn't agree, then I will send Huang Zu's head back to him. ”
Pang Ji immediately said: "I'll go back and report to Huang Jiangxia." ”
Zhang Yi nodded and asked people to send Pang Ji out.
After Pang Ji returned to Jiangxia, he told Huang Zu about Zhang Yi's conditions. Huang Zu breathed a sigh of relief, 20,000 stone of grain was still acceptable, even if he added ten horses and ten big ships, he could afford it.
These are in his family's granary, if it is 50,000 stone grain and grass, Huang Zu really can't take it out. He Huang Zu also wanted to raise soldiers, and the vast majority of Jiang Xia's army were actually Huang Zu's private soldiers, but Liu Biao did not provide any assistance to Huang Zu.
Of course, the entire Jiangxia is also under the management of Huang Zu, and he has to keep most of the tax money and grain he gets, and he can give Liu Biao some if he wants.
The two have formed a tacit understanding, just like with the Cai family in Jiangling, everything they get is also owned by the Cai family, and even the huge Jiangling naval army is mostly owned by the Cai family.
Huang Zu prepared all the grain and grass, and originally wanted Su Fei to send it. However, Su Fei is a general, and escorting grain and grass to redeem people should not be his job!
At this time, a person stood up, "Envoy, I'd rather escort grain and grass." ”
When Huang Zu saw it, it turned out to be Gan Ning. Huang Zu was very happy that this Gan Ning would also solve problems for himself.
Huang Zu actually knew Gan Ning's ability, otherwise Huang Zu would not have kept Gan Ning under his hands. The name of the Jinfan thief is very famous in Jingyi.
If it weren't for the Dongzhou soldiers led by Zhao Wei (Liu Yan brought over from the Central Plains, many soldiers had quelled the Yellow Turban Uprising), Gan Ning would not have been defeated at all. However, Gan Ning is not from a high background and is very unpopular in Jingzhou. When he was under Liu Biao, he was not taken seriously at all, and he was not taken seriously here by Huang Zu. However, Huang Zu knew that this person was capable, and he didn't want to let him go.
It can be seen here that Huang Zu is still very wise. He knows that Gan Ning is capable, because I can't reuse you because of my background, but I won't let you go, even if you have nothing to do with me, but you can't work for others. If you work for someone else, you may work against me, how can I agree?
In this way, Huang Zu never let Gan Ning leave. Now Gan Ning wants to play for him, he is very happy, Gan Ning is not going to leave!
Huang Zu was very satisfied with his statement, so he said to him: "Xingba, as long as you can bring my son back, I will credit you." ”
Gan Ning immediately assured: "Rest assured, the son will be safe and sound." ”
In this way, Gan Ning took hundreds of people from his headquarters, took a big boat, pulled up grain and grass, and brought horses, and began to go down the river until he came to Chaisang. Of course, Huang Zu couldn't just let Gan Ning come by himself! He also sent a confidant family member to follow him in a small boat, on the one hand, to see Gan Ning, and on the other hand, to bring Huang Zu's secret order.
What cipher? "General, before the lord leaves, order the general, after picking up the son, he will return with the big ship."
Gan Ning's mind sank, "The envoy wants to break the contract?" ”
"Zhang Yi is just Hu Chou (Hu Ren Clown, contemptuous name), how can the lord reach an agreement with him?"
Gan Ning nodded, indicating that he understood. In his heart, he was slandering, and it was the hierarchical vision of you people that made me not reused. Fortunately, I have long wanted to take refuge in Zhang Zhendong (Zhang Yi is the general of Zhendong), otherwise wouldn't it have made your treacherous plan succeed?
Gan Ning agreed on the surface, and when he arrived in the territory of Chaisang, he directly drove the big boat into the water village, and the Huang Zu family who followed behind was dumbfounded, why did he drive it directly in?
Of course, Gan Ning not only drove in, but also came to see Zhang Yi as soon as possible, "Gan Ning saw General Zhendong." ”
"I have been known for a long time, and now I can finally see it." Zhang Yi is very happy, with Gan Ning, he has another general.
"Gan Ning, Force: 99, Strategy: 92, Strategy: 87, Internal Affairs: 31, Education: 42, Diplomacy: 32. Trait: Fierce General. ”
Hiss~ How can it be a fierce general? Gan Ning has a lot of records in history!
"Gan Ning does have a good set of sailors, and he has also intercepted the camp with hundreds of horses, but these achievements are more based on his own bravery."
It turns out that Gan Ning is a person who is more willing to use force, just like Lu Bu. Even if Lu Bu really has a set of cavalry, he still relies on force.
Gan Ning was helped up by Zhang Yi, "Envoy, Huang Zu has made people follow me, but on the way, he asked me to return to Jiangxia after receiving Huang Jie, and he is unwilling to deliver these grains and grass to the envoy." ”
Zhang Yi didn't care, "Huang Zu is just a little clever. ”
"Then are we going to continue to detain the yellow shot? Are you getting some food from Huang Zu? To teach him a lesson? Gan Ning proposed.
"Definitely! Definitely! Zhang Yi said: "I want to put Huang Zhu back, so that Huang Zu thinks that I keep my promise." In this way, he will no longer be defensive against me, and after I pacify Jiangdong, it will be the time when I enter Jingzhou, and at that time, Huang Zu is unprepared, and it is a good opportunity to capture him. ”
When Gan Ning heard this, he was immediately overjoyed, "At that time, I would rather be a pioneer." ”
"Good!" Zhang Yi said happily: "When the time comes, Xingba will be the striker, and he will not be left with a piece of armor." ”
"May I be driven by the Lord!"
"Good!" Zhang Yi said yes repeatedly, and then set up a banquet to entertain Gan Ning.
On the other side, Huang Jie was put on top of the boat. After getting on the boat, Huang Jie immediately ordered to return to Jiangxia, and he didn't dare to take it here for even a moment, he was really frightened by Zhang Yi.
