"The one called Buqi came out, my eldest brother called you!" At this time, a bearded man appeared at the gate of the courtyard and shouted loudly.

"It's ...... coming" Bu Qi's heart tightened, and he was not in the mood to think about the rudeness of the big man, so he turned his head to "Brother Ziyi" and said, "This is the first time this bureaucrat has taken the initiative to see me, I'm afraid that I have already decided where to serve." ”

"Brother Ziyi" was also shocked when he heard this, and said with a cautious face: "Brother Zishan, as long as you deal with it carefully, you may not be able to turn evil into good fortune!" ”

"Hmmm! I know how to do it, Brother Ziyi rest assured. Bu Qi nodded, then straightened his clothes and strode out......

Soon, Buqi was taken by the big man to a large hall, which was already full, but it was not cluttered, and it did not look like the noise of a thief's den at all.

Bu Qi was very surprised to see this, he had seen that the thief leader here was not so grand before.

Looking at the person in the main position in the hall, Bu Qiu secretly said in his heart: "The lord takes such a fancy to this bureaucracy, I'm afraid there is really some reason. ”

can sit on the main seat here, and naturally he is the leader of this group of thieves. I saw that this person was wearing a golden crown and a brocade robe, young and strong, and his spirit was magnificent. At first glance, it doesn't look like a bandit at all, but like a child of a family. It's just that the unruly color is too flamboyant, which is not in line with the way of moderation and introvertedness, and will definitely be disliked by mainstream scholars.

This person is Yuan Yao's search for a long time, and now he is still a coward in the grass, known as Gan Ning, Gan Xingba, who is known as the Jinfan thief.

Bu Qi stepped forward without squinting, and said to Gan Ning: "Bu Qi, I've seen Leader Gan." ”

Gan Ning grinned, and said with an evil smile on his face: "Calling you here this time is to give you the last chance, write to your lord immediately, and ask him to come and ask me to be a general." Otherwise, I will give you to the Jingzhou Navy now, in exchange for some reward money and flowers. ”

Hearing Gan Ning's usual arrogant words, Bu Qi breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, the other party did not send him to Jingzhou as soon as possible, proving that his desire to choose to join the Eastern Army was greater.

Bu Qi had a bottom in his heart, and he calmed down a lot when he spoke, and said: "This place is the inland of Jingzhou, and Leader Gan asked my lord and father-in-law to come to the enemy territory to come to Corporal Lixian, which is too difficult for a strong man......"

Gan Ning's face was cold, and he was about to interject; Seeing this, Bu Qi hurriedly changed his tone and said: "But it is not impossible to give Leader Gan a general position at this time!" ”

Hearing Bu Qi loosen his mouth, Gan Ning still said impatiently: "What do you mean is not impossible?" The generals are all in the hands of your father-in-law, whoever has the ability to give it is, Uncle Ben has not met an opponent for many years since his debut, why not want you to be a general? That Tai Shi Ci shot an arrow at your father-in-law, didn't he give it to a good general, do you have to shoot your father-in-law with an arrow? ”

Bu Qi heard about Tai Shi Ci shooting Yuan Yao from "Brother Ziyi", and saw that Gan Ning was disrespectful to Yuan Yao, so he said a little unpleasantly: "That Tai Shi Ci is a general, and he was already an official before, and there are precedents to follow for crossing two levels. But the leader of Kegan is not even a clean white body now, how can he go directly to the general......"

Speaking of this, seeing that Gan Ning seemed to be furious, Bu Qi changed his words again: "But if there is enough credit to make a nomination, this matter may not be hopeless!" ”

Gan Ning heard that Bu Qiu meant something, so he held back his anger and asked, "What do you mean, you have something to say!" ”

Bu Qi immediately said: "I heard that Cai Mao after being defeated by my master, he wantonly recruited a good man on the water, and at this time there is a tendency to turn defeat into victory!" If Leader Gan can take this opportunity to succumb to the thieves first, and then make peace with our army and eliminate the remnants of Cai Mao's forces together, with this great achievement, plus my full protection, I may have the opportunity to worship the general! No matter how bad it is, a 2,000-stone lieutenant is no problem, and I can guarantee this with my life! I don't know what Boss Gan thinks? ”

Gan Ning suddenly said: "You let me play yin?" ”

Bu Qi frowned and said, "This is a strategy!" ”

"Whew!" Gan Ning said with disdain on his face, "You literati are just a bad stomach, and you still call it a strategy!" If you want to kill Cai Mao, just kill it directly, if you want to die or live, it's just a matter of one sentence, why do you need to be a 'stooping thief', what 'should be reconciled inside and outside', it's a waste of Uncle Ben's time! ”

Bu Qi said with slight annoyance when he heard this: "What does Commander Gan mean by this?" ”

Gan Ning got up and came to Bu Qi, stared at his eyes and said, "Is it possible that if I take Cai Mao, I can change to a general?" ”

"This ......" Bu Qi was a little ignorant when asked by Gan Ning, but when he thought about his encounter, he suddenly realized something: "Are you going to kidnap Cai Mao?" ”

"Humph!" Gan Ning smiled proudly, "Yes! ”

Bu Qi was a little dumbfounded when he heard this.

Gan Ning was known as the Jinfan thief at this time, and he gathered thousands of 800 people around him, and often hijacked the children of rich families to ask for ransom. But Cai Mao is the governor of the Jingzhou Navy Army, although he has just experienced a fiasco, but it is said that he has regathered hundreds of warships and tens of thousands of troops through Zhao'an water thieves.

"Where is Cai Mao now?" Although Bu Qi questioned, he didn't think that Gan Ning would be targeted, so he carefully inquired about the details.

Gan Ning smiled evilly: "Hankou Water Village; The base camp of the Jingzhou Navy Army. ”

Hankou is located at the junction of the Yangtze River and the Han River, where Wuhan was later located, and the Jingzhou naval army set up camp here, which can manage both the two most important waterways in Jingzhou.

"How many soldiers and horses are there in this battalion?" Bu Qi asked.

"Twenty or thirty thousand......," Gan Ning replied casually.

"......" Bu Qi's face instantly turned cold, "What is Leader Gan's intentions, I'm talking to you about business, but you're playing tricks on me?" Your Jinfan thieves are only 1,800 people, how can you hijack the enemy commander in a camp of tens of thousands of people? ”

Gan Ning also said with a cold face: "What a fuss!" Why do you need 1,800 people to catch Cai Mao, twenty or thirty people are enough, you just need to tell me if Cai Mao can change generals! In other things, you are a powerless literati with little involvement. ”

"You ......" was despised by Gan Ning, and Bu Qi was secretly angry.

At this time, the six arts of Confucian gentlemen were still the mainstream, so the swordsmanship in the six arts of Buqi was still good, and it was not the so-called useless scholar later. But despite this, he and Gan Ning's force value is still incomparable, so although it is unpleasant to be despised by him, Bu Qi is powerless to refute.

Bu Qi held back his anger and said: "Capturing Cai Mao is not the point, the point is to cause chaos among the enemy army by catching Cai Mao, and then take the opportunity to destroy the enemy army!" Is this possible for Commander Gan to do? ”

Bu Qi couldn't help but provoke Gan Ning.

Gan Ning raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and said with a murderous aura: "Now Cai Mao's sailors are all water thieves in Zhao'an, these people are unruly, without Cai Mao's suppression, they will definitely collapse themselves, why do I need to destroy them?" ”

Bu Qi looked stunned, but he didn't expect Gan Ning to still have some brains, so he resumed his seriousness and said: "Commander Gan's words are reasonable, but just in case, please also ask Gan Tong to take the lead and let me go, so that I can contact our navy to cooperate with you and eliminate the Jingzhou navy in Hankou together, so that the credit of Commander Gan can reach the maximum!" ”

"Huh?" Hearing Bu Qi's request to release him first, Gan Ning squinted his eyes and examined him for a while, then turned around and sat back on the main seat, "I heard that you and the scholar named Jiang Gan that I just arrested...... Relationships mix well? ”

Hearing this, Bu Qi's face tightened and said, "What does Commander Gan mean?" ”

Gan Ning smiled evilly: "It's okay to let you go, but if I find out that you dare to play tricks on me, I will cook this Jiang Gan to death first, and then go to you to settle accounts!" ”

Bu Qi frowned and said, "Commander Gan, although rest assured, my lord has always looked forward to your service, and will never allow me to do such a treacherous thing." ”

"Humph! I hope so. Gan Ning didn't really believe Bu Qi's words.

Bu Qi arched his hand again and said, "Before leaving, please allow Commander Gan to say goodbye to Brother Ziyi." ”

"Yes!" Gan Ning waved his hand and said impatiently......
