In order to attack Sun Ce, who was still unstable at this time, he gave up marching from the land, and chose to attack directly from the waterway.

As for the ships, they were naturally captured from Wu County, and the Jiangdong area was close to the Yangtze River, so almost every county's Taishou would build some ships in case of emergency, and Wu County was no exception, now it was cheaper Gan Ning, and these ships of Wu County could just fit his 30,000 troops.

In less than five days, Gan Ning's fleet had reached the territory of Danyang County, and the smoke of the fishermen of Danyang County could even be seen from afar on the river.

"Mr. Jia, we only need to have two more days to reach Qu'a, and when the time comes, I will definitely twist off Sun Ce's neck and dedicate it to the lord!" Standing steadily on the big boat on the river, this made Gan Ning, who was born a water thief, feel like a dragon entering the sea, smelling the smell of water that made him feel very kind, Gan Ning smiled very excitedly at Jia Xu on the side.

"It's better not to be careless, with the military strategy of the lord, I have said many times that Sun Ce is very extraordinary, it can be seen that Sun Ce is by no means an idle thing, let's still be cautious!" Jia Xu still said calmly.

"I know, sir, you've said it many times, I'm not a fool, if the situation is not good at that time, or if there is no advantage, then we won't fight, and we'll talk about it when the lord comes!" Gan Ning said very proudly. Lu An said that he was still very convinced, saying that Sun Ce was very powerful, it should not be wrong, but Gan Ning had already planned it, if he came this time, he found that Sun Ce had not completely stabilized this Danyang County, so he took advantage of the unstable foundation to attack immediately, if Sun Ce had completely controlled the situation, then withdraw, just find a county seat to occupy first, and wait for the lord to come to converge, so that there is no danger at all.

"General Gan knows a lot about the art of war!" Jia Xu smiled slightly, if Gan Ning really planned to do so, then this trip should be fine.

"General, look ahead, it looks like a fleet is coming!" While the two were chatting, a ship acting as a spy at the front seemed to have discovered something, and soon a herald came with the news.

"Huh? Let me see! Gan Ning was slightly surprised, and looked in the direction pointed by the herald, and after a while, sure enough, a small group of ships were driving from that side, and on those ships, there were many soldiers in armor patrolling the side, very vigilant, and on the top of the ship there was a flag, on which a big Sun character was written.

"It's Sun Ce's fleet, looking at its draft, it should be military supplies such as grain, grass and ordnance!" Seeing this, Gan Ning's eyes immediately lit up, and his expression was full of coldness.

In this area of Danyang County, there is no one else except Sun Ce has a regular naval army, not to mention that the ships have a big flag on them, which proves their identity, this is not only the fleet under Sun Ce's command, but also a military ship specializing in transporting grain and grass, generally speaking, marching and fighting, in a boat will not be full of soldiers, so not only is it inconvenient to move, but also may be wiped out by the enemy, so if it is loaded with soldiers, the draft will not be very deep, Looking at the draft of these boats pressed into almost half of the bottom of the lake, Gan Ning concluded that it was most likely Sun Ce's transport ship.

"Whoosh!" The fleet over there had apparently also spotted Ganning's large force, and the ship suddenly became very fast and fled to the east.

"Speed up and intercept them!" The meat was in his mouth, how could Gan Ning let it go, and hurriedly asked the boatmen and sailors who stepped on the boat to speed up and catch up.

The ship on the opposite side seems to be really full of goods, and its speed is not as fast as Gan Ning's, so it was quickly shortened by Gan Ning's fleet, and when the distance between the two sides was less than ten zhang, Gan Ning jumped directly from the giant sail and landed firmly on the opposite ship, and with Gan Ning's movements, some of the soldiers with better skills under his command also raised their ropes and swung towards the opposite side.

"Quick, cut the ropes they put up!" On this small fleet, a middle-aged man dressed as a lieutenant saw that he was being surrounded and kept shouting. But before he could say a few more words, he was shot dead by Gan Ning's soldiers.

This is just a small fleet of less than 300 people, encountered the interception of Gan Ning's main force, like a sheep encountering a lion almost no resistance, after the resistance of the small colonel on the fleet was hacked to death on the spot, the rest of the people surrendered, as Gan Ning expected, this is Sun Ce's military ship, full of grain, grass and ordnance, ready to be transported to Qu'a City, and from these prisoners, they know that they are only a small part of the transport team, and a large transport team will also pass through here in a day and go to Qu'a City.

This immediately made Gan Ning's heart move, and then he made up his mind to wander around here for a day, preparing to loot the large convoy that would arrive in a day's time.

According to these prisoners, the transport ships that will arrive here tomorrow are all the grain and grass ordnance that Sun Ce transferred from Lujiang and other counties, in order to resist the invasion of the Lu An army.

"General Gan, it's better to be careful tomorrow!" Jia Xu on the side was silent for a while, and suddenly persuaded him.

"What? Sir think this is false information? Gan Ning said a little unhappily. He is not that kind of reckless man, in order to confirm the authenticity of this information, he interrogated many prisoners in a row, and exhausted all kinds of means, and the final results obtained are the same, indicating that the falsity of this information is very low, but I didn't expect Jia Xu to still have some doubts now.

"That's not it, judging from the confessions of these enemy soldiers, the intelligence is undoubtedly true, but I feel that things are going a little too well, how can we happen to run into Sun Ce's convoy during the march, not only looted a small part of the grain and grass, but also obtained such a valuable enemy situation, this feeling is always a little unreliable!" Jia Xu frowned. He really felt strange in his heart, but he couldn't see any flaws for the time being, so he could only remind Gan Ning a little in this way.

"Sir, I'm too worried, Sun Ce's transport ship happened to meet our army because he was unlucky, and it doesn't prove anything, after all, who doesn't have a little bit to carry it, maybe Sun Ce didn't expect us to attack from the waterway, and come so fast, that's why there are still transport ships passing by here." Gan Ning didn't care at all.

"Maybe, if it is as the general said, it will really be Sun Cezhi's misfortune!" Seeing Gan Ning so optimistic, Jia Xu didn't want to disturb his interest, so he forced himself to show a smile and said.

At noon the next day, the sky was very good, the high sun hung in the air, shining on the turbulent river, refracting a faint colored light, and occasionally swimming fish jumped out of the river, which added a few different kinds of beauty to it.

Gan Ning obviously didn't have the heart to appreciate all this, but kept thinking about the convoy that passed by here, this feeling of waiting for the harvest reminded him of the time when he used to be a water thief, when he received reliable information that a rich merchant or a wealthy family was going to pass by the waterway, he led his brothers to wait on the river, and the current scene is very similar to that time, but at that time he was a water thief that everyone shouted and beaten, and there were only eight hundred brothers under his hands, and now he is an official, not to mention the famous town, There are also 30,000 elite soldiers under his command, and the two conditions are undoubtedly one in the sky and one in the ground.

"How do you remember the past!" Shaking his head slightly, Gan Ning erased the memories of those water thieves from his mind, wiped the old guy Bahai knife in his hand, many situations have changed, only it has not changed, it is still his most powerful partner, the difference is that it was just harvesting life for itself before, but now it has the goal of struggle, for the sake of meritorious service, for the grand plan of the lord.

"General, general, the spies from the front have come to report, there is movement over there!" A voice tinged with excitement interrupted Gan Ning's thoughts and pulled him back into reality.

"The convoy is coming?" Hearing the call of the guards on the side, Gan Ning immediately came to his senses and said with great energy.

"I guess our spies say there's a big fleet ahead! General, when are we going to do it? The guard looked very excited.

"Don't worry!" When the target appeared, Gan Ning calmed down instead, and said to Jia Xu on the side: "Sir, please help me hide for a while!" ”
