366. Ganning
Hearing that Gan Ning was coming to vote again, Deng Ji was full of joy, he played the game, knowing that Gan Ning was proficient in water warfare, and he was a fierce man with a very high force value, so he couldn't wait to fly to see each other immediately, but the speed of the team going south was not fast, and he couldn't catch up for a while, so he had to let people fly to Zhang Liao and Han Song first, so as to entertain them.
Gan Ning led the people to defect to the people is called the "brocade thief" by others, because Gan Ning is so extravagant, although its ships are small, but they all use brocade to make sails, very different from other families, so it is named.
However, in the section of the river outside Yuyang County, there are more than a dozen large iron cones, it is Yuan Shu who is too punctual for Nanyang, because he sent Sun Jian to seize Jingzhou, and Liu Biao made a feud, and the fear of the water division attacked Wancheng along the river, so that the blacksmith cast more than ten large pointed iron cones and placed them in the river, the bottom sank in the mud, and the vertebrae were up, but they were all hidden under the water, and it was difficult to detect with the naked eye, so as to block the boat. After Liu Biao recaptured Nanyang, the county made a big fuss about the thieves and water thieves, and they had time to eliminate it in the future, and Zhang Ji and Liu Bei, who later became the masters, wanted to keep these iron cones in the water, and the fishermen in Yuyang knew more about it, Deng Ji's forces entered Nanyang newly, and the county orders arrived a few days later, but they didn't know.
Even if Sizhou gives preferential conditions, a small part of the Wuwei soldiers are still reluctant to go south, and the soldiers who are willing to come have arrived one after another, Guan Chengxin has just begun to exercise the navy when the fishing boats, merchant ships, and ferries near Wancheng are just starting to drill the navy, and the winter is cold.
After Gan Ning negotiated with Liu Bi and Lei Bo in Xinye, he rested for six or seven days, and was invited in by Zhang Liao's order, so he led the fleet to the north, approaching the water surface of Yuyang County, and the two ships in the front touched the iron cone. The bottom of the boat leaked and sank.
Among the Jinfan thieves who begged for a living on the water, there was not a single one who was not good at water, and there were no casualties after the ship sank, and the loss was not large, but the fleet did not dare to enter again because of the water conditions in the future.
Although Deng Ji loves celebrities, he is obsessed. But after all, he came from later generations, and his words and deeds were affected, in fact, Sizhou now pays more attention to team strength rather than relying on individuals in all aspects, and the image of promoting talents to the outside world is naturally not atmospheric.
In the words of later generations, Gan Ning was a man of great vanity. He wears a bell so that people can hear and know where it comes from; The clothes are bright, and the sails are made of brocade, which makes people envious of their wealth. Whether it was a ranger, a thief or a prince later, it was all to become famous. As long as you are respected and treated well. He will give up his life in return.
Such Gan Ning, in Jingzhou by Huang Zu coldly, naturally very dissatisfied, only want to change to others, but more attention to the team of Sizhou is not the first choice in his mind, the reason why he led the crowd to vote, is actually helplessββββ most want to go to Soochow will be a brave name in the world Sun Ce, but Sun is Liu Biao's life and death enemy. Jiangxia Huangzu strictly guarded the stubbornly, and it was strictly forbidden for civilian boats to come and go on the river. Although the Hengjiang iron cable cannot completely block the Yangtze River, if he hears that his family has defected and gone down the river to join the mortal enemy, Huang Zu will definitely send a sailor to chase after him.
Nanjun is a land of fish and rice, with abundant food and unobstructed waterways from north to south and east to west. And if there is no major chaos, commerce will naturally prosper. During this period, the commerce of Xiangyang and Gangneung was the highest in the country, and merchant ships on the Han River were constantly coming.
The road to the east will not work, it is better to go upstream from the Han River. Change the sail and pretend to be a merchant ship, without attracting the attention of the Xiangyang navy, you can steal it, and try your luck under Deng Mu'an, Deng Mu'an is a thief, and he should not despise his own family because of the thief's name.
Therefore, taking advantage of the change in the weather and the strong south wind, Gan Ning chose to leave Jiangxia, change the fleet of Jinfan to cotton sail, and go up against the Han River.
When you arrive in Xinye, you can't lose face in front of Deng Ji, and then change to the iconic Jinfan.
It's just that I didn't expect the fleet to cross the difficulties of the big rivers, but it was blocked in the water outside Yuyang County.
Gan Ning parked the fleet outside Yuyang and busily sent people to report to Zhang Liao.
There is an iron cone blocking the road in the water, which is a good thing for the current defense of Wancheng, it is impossible to destroy it for a few small boats in Gan Ning, Zhang Liao has received Deng Ji's order to be hospitable, so he made people inform Yuyang County Order, first ask Gan Ning and others to enter the city to live temporarily, and let Guan Cheng lead more than ten small boats of the navy to the south, by the way to explore the situation of the clear waterway, he himself and Han Song, later from the land to Yuyang to meet.
The speed of the waterway was very fast, and the news came back, and Yuyang County ordered his relatives to meet him by the river, and Gan Ning led more than 20 people ashore and lived in the city, while the rest stayed to guard the boat.
The Yuyang County Commander sent servants to deliver wine and food to the ship to entertain the Jinfan thieves.
Guan Cheng led Guo Ren and others to drive the boat all the way to Yuyang, and did not find any iron cone under the water, entered Yuyang, first entrusted the county order to find local fishermen to explore the number and location of the iron cone at the southern end of the water, and then feasted to entertain Gan Ning and his party.
Now can go south with the tube by boat, are Guo Ren and other old sailors, this group of people were originally pirates, homeless people, they used to be hard, life is more frugal, the banquet saw from Gan Ning below, the brocade thieves are dressed in brocade robes and satin, glamorous, there are many dislikes in their hearts, although they are hindered by Deng Ji's order, they have to bend the hospitality, but they are only polite, not close.
After drinking and eating enough, that night, the county magistrate found a local fisherman who was familiar with the situation and came to tell Guan Cheng that there were 17 large iron cones in the river section of the river two miles south of Yuyang County.
Gan Ning's fleet was still in the water, so he was naturally worried, and after hearing about it, he made an appointment with Guan Cheng, and asked the fishermen to lead the way after the morning eclipse on the second day, so that the fleet could come around.
On the second day, the county ordered local fishermen to be hired and the stewards to identify the locations of the large iron cones.
Guan Cheng and Guo Ren marked along the way, and after these seventeen large iron cones, they joined the Jinfan thief fleet, and then prepared to turn around together.
It's just that at this point, Guo Ren saw that Gan Ning's more than 20 ships were all made of brocade as sails, not to mention that the ropes that tied the ships were all made of silk, and he was even more indignant.
When Gan Ning gave the order to set off, the brocade thieves did not go ashore to untie the ropes, but took knives to cut the brocade silk at the bow of the ship and discarded it in the water.
Although Deng Ji ordered a good life to entertain him, Guo Ren couldn't help it at this time, and said to Gan Ning: "In today's troubled times, there are still people in the world who feed on people, and the people's livelihood is miserable, why do you have such a luxury?" β
Gan Ning narrowed his eyes and asked him: "This has always been the case, what does the public think?" β
Guo Ren said indignantly: "This kind of behavior is a crime that is far away!" β
Hearing Guo Ren say this, the faces of the Jinfan thieves on several ships around him changed color, and Gan Ning snorted coldly: "If you act like this, why are you afraid of people's words?" And I heard that your lord Deng Mu'an was a moth thief, what about the juniors? β
Guo Ren was furious: "How can the lord be compared? Thieves and dogs dare to insult our lord! β
is going to fight Gan Ning, Gan Ning is a very hot and heroic character, ignoring life and death, if he is respected, he can sacrifice his life to repay him, but there is another sentence behind: If you don't agree with each other, you have to draw a knife to face each other.
Guo Ren's mouth was not inferior, and the Jinfan thieves who heard about it around him had already changed their faces first, and when they scolded again, they pounced forward, Gan Ning pulled out his sword and raised it to stab.
Guo Ren has lived in Henan for a long time with Guan Cheng, the people of Henan are fierce, and there are often fights in the civilian army, but few people use weapons outside of the arts. The boat failed to put on the armor, Guo Renquan didn't expect the other party to turn his face so quickly, he immediately drew his sword and stabbed him, hurriedly turned sideways to avoid the vital point, was stabbed under the right armpit by a sword, and after howling, he turned over and fell into the water.
Guan Cheng was still talking to the fishermen's guide at the bow of the boat, and only when he heard the sound did he look back and ask in surprise: "What's the matter?" β
Without waiting for Gan Ning to answer, the sailor companion next to him witnessed the whole process just now and had already come to take Gan Ning with a weapon.
Guan Cheng is the commander of Deng Ji's water army, and Guo Ren is used by his subordinates, so how can he still be good?
Gan Ning didn't answer, he snatched a halberd from the navy, pushed the other party into the water, and stepped forward to stab Guan Cheng first.
It happened suddenly, the boat was small, and there were less than ten Sizhou sailors on the same boat outside the Jinfan thief, and they couldn't get out of the way at this time, Guan Cheng's martial arts were not outstanding, although he also took a single knife in his hand, but he was grabbed close by Gan Ning, and shot down a single knife with a halberd, and he didn't have time to dive, and another halberd pierced into his chest, and half of the hull was stained with blood.
Gan Ning has an irritable personality and kills at every turn, but he is good at raising soldiers and soldiers, and the athletes are happy to die. After he stabbed Guan Cheng to death, the Jinfan thieves didn't find it too difficult to accept, and worked together to strangle the Cheese Zhou Water Army.
Guan Cheng brought to Yuyang the navy of nearly 100 people, suddenly this change, in the blink of an eye Guan Cheng was dead, Guo Ren fell into the water, even more invincible to the Jinfan thieves, saw the opportunity to quickly jump and swim, the rest were killed.
Just because of a temporary dispute, Gan Ning became sexual, and he killed the captain of the naval army under Deng Ji. Guo Ren fell into the water, although he finally escaped with his life, but this is the middle of winter, the river is cold and biting, he is injured and fell into the water, and since then he has left the root of the disease, in the days to come, a little force will cough more than once, and even cough up blood in serious cases, Zhang Ji and Li Dang can not be treated.
Gan Ning killed the Sizhou Navy and captured the ship of Guan Cheng, and the team turned around and walked back.
All the way back along the river, Xinye Liu Pi and Lei Bo did not have a water division, so they had to report and couldn't stop him, so they let him sail back to the Han River.
After replacing the Jinfan, the Ganning fleet traveled through Xiangyang again, but did not dare to go to Jiangxia again, so he abandoned the ship to the south of the Han River and went ashore on foot.
The delta formed by the Han River and the Yangtze River belonged to Nanjun and Jiangxia respectively, and most of the land boundaries during this period were the vast Yunmengze. It is unimaginable that Yunmengze's vast descendants can hardly imagine that Dongting Lake is only a small part of its southernmost point, and almost all the lakes in the Han River Delta today, including Honghu Lake, were split by it after drying up and shrinking.
In this period, from Xiangyang to Jiangling, only a small part of the land is dry land and forests, and most of the rest belong to the swamps and lakes of Yunmengze, and there are many rivers in the middle of the connection, and the local people plant rice along the swamp enclosure, and often get a bumper harvest, so Nanjun is rich, Jingzhou Liu Biao is rich, and the princes of the world are envious.
Gan Ning first abandoned Huang Zu, and then cut off Deng Ji, and when he led the people to abandon the boat on the south bank of the Han River, he had to go south to the vicinity of Yunmengze, find the people to ask about the Qingshui Road, and then rob some fishing boats, and crossed Dongting Lake to Changsha after many hardships, which was two or three months later, and then changed to Yuzhang by land, and then defected to Sun Ce.
