In the spring of the fourth year of the early peace of the Han Dynasty, Hanzhong Taishou and Lanting Hou Chen Linzhong planned to attack Chengdu, but unexpectedly entered Chengdu City, and then was besieged in Chengdu by the army of Yizhou Mu Liu Yan. At the same time, Jia Long, the governor of Yizhou, who had secretly reached an agreement with Liu Yan, was about to take the opportunity to send troops to Deyang to take Brazil, but Jia Long rebelled in Linjiang behind him, and Jia Long was afraid of being attacked behind him, so he had to return to the army to quell the rebellion. Just when Jia Long angrily sent troops to Linjiang, there was a dispute in Linjiang City, and the reason was Jia Long's attack.

It is said that the father and son of the Gan family in Linjiang successfully took Linjiang County, and at the same time persuaded Linjiang County to return Li Chao to Hanzhong, and agreed to raise troops to rebel against Jia Long in the name of Li Chao. Although Gan Hu successfully won Linjiang and gathered many people to join with his many years of fame, Gan Hu knew that he could not compare to those serious 800 scholars after all, so he tried his best to persuade Li Chao and win the support of Li Chao. Li Chao was desperate, so he had to agree, and Li Chao's entry made the rebels in Linjiang morale like a rainbow, and for a time won the support of some scholars. At this moment, a person appeared, Gan Hu's old friend for many years, the former county lieutenant of Linjiang, the head of the Yan family in Linjiang, and Yan Yan Xibo.

Yan Yan is an authentic son of the Shu sergeant clan, although the Yan family is only in Linjiang County, but after all, it is an old family, Yan Yan has studied the art of war since he was a child, and he understands military affairs. Yan Yan is older than Gan Hu, and Gan Ning had a period of time to practice martial arts with Yan Yan when he was a child, so he can be regarded as half of Gan Ning's teacher. Yan Yan was abandoned by Jia Long after Jia Long independently guarded Badong, and Yan Yan was closed at home for more than a year. Knowing that Gan Hu took Linjiang and visited him in person, Yan Yan heard that Li Chao also agreed to raise troops, so he decided to help his old friend Gan Hu and promised to go out of the mountain, but he didn't say anything about serving Chen Lin. Yan Yan is a very strict person, he has never met Chen Lin, so he is naturally unwilling to make a decision so rashly.

Yan Yan's first suggestion after leaving the mountain turned out to be to abandon Linjiang City, deploy all the troops on the road to Linjiang in Jiangzhou, let go of Jia Long's front army, and defeat Jia Long's rear army and the baggage team in one fell swoop when Jia Long's rear army appeared, and then lead the troops straight to Jiangzhou and capture Jiangzhou. Jia Long lost his baggage, even if he won Linjiang, it was just a small city, and the rebels took Jiangzhou as a stronghold to resist Jia Long's attack for half a month, even if the war was over, Jia Long would be defeated.

Gan Hu Gan Ning naturally agreed, especially Gan Ning, how can there be a reason to sit in the city and wait for others to attack, Gan Ning has always liked to provoke others, and never waited for others to provoke him. However, Yan Yan's crazy opinion was opposed by a group of people led by Li Chao. Li Chao shouted loudly: "Yan Xibo, your Yan family's foundation is Linjiang, I don't know why you give up so easily." "The other Linjiang Shi clan naturally happened to be said by Li Chao, how could they be willing to give up a good foundation and go to a big city like Jiangzhou. These little scholars may be nothing when they arrive in Jiangzhou, at least they are still a figure with a head and a face in Linjiang.

Yan Yan sneered, how can a major military event be a big loss because of a small one, for the sake of Gan Hu, a friend, what is there to be reluctant about a small family business, but Yan Yan's reluctance does not mean that others are also reluctant. To be honest, the reason why some people here surrendered was not because of Ganhu Ganning's wolf-like Jinfan battalion, if it weren't for such a large army, these people would not bother to pay attention to you Ganhu, who came to Linjiang is different, as long as their family business is not damaged. Yan Yan used to be one of the children of these scholars, of course, he understood what these people had in their hearts, and after making up his mind, he stopped talking. There was a lot of noise in the hall, and Shen Mi Ganning's voice was particularly loud, but these scholars were not very good at other skills, and when they started verbal quarrels, wouldn't it be a piece of cake for Gan Ning and Shen Mi, so angry that Gan Ning was about to draw a knife.

The matter still had no result, everyone dispersed, Yan Yan didn't say a word, and silently followed Gan Hu's carriage to Gan's mansion, Gan Hu knew that Yan Yan must have important considerations to do this, so he hurriedly closed the door, and sat down with Gan Ning's cronies and Yan Yan to discuss secretly. Yan Yan: "Dayong, you can also see that these people don't care about anything other than their own family business. Defending the river is a dead end, and the materials in the city are not enough to cope with the long-term defense. Now, counting all those who can command and have combat power, even you and me, we are only about 3,500 men and horses, and if we stay in Linjiang, we will not be able to withstand it for five days. ”

Gan Ning said: "Alas, my father has to win over these people, and he will cut them directly according to what he said." Gan Hu was furious: "I know that it is a time of turmoil, and everyone is in turmoil, if we start killing in the city now, then we don't need Jia Qiande to fight, we will collapse first." Although these people may not be able to count on it, they can always help with food or something, think long-term in doing things, think broadly, and don't always judge by personal joy and anger. Gan Ning hurriedly bowed his head and was silent, and Yan Yan looked straight at it.

After Gan Hu scolded Gan Ning, he turned his head to Yan Yan and said, "Heber, if you have any good plans, you might as well say it and listen to it." Yan Yan said: "Let's go, if they don't go, we will go by ourselves." Gan Ning raised his head violently, and Gan Hu also looked at Yan Yan directly. Yan Yan continued: "Although these people have a lot of influence in the city, but except for their guardians, now they don't want to command a soldier or a horse, on the contrary, you can be brave, as long as we decide to abandon the city, I believe that most of the troops can still be taken away." Jinfan Battalion, eighty percent of the county soldiers, and the heroes of the rivers and lakes recruited by Dayong, these three parts of the people decided to obey, so there are about 3,000 people, leave tonight, and leave at night. ”

As soon as Yan Yan finished speaking, a servant of the Gan Mansion rushed out and called in front of the door: "Master, the county commander asks to see you." "Gan Hu and everyone were shocked, Li Chao? Gan Hu and Yan Yan looked at each other, both of them were surprised in their hearts, and they couldn't think of what Li Chao was doing in Ganfu at this time. Yan Yan: "Dayong, you might as well welcome you in." Li Chao was brought in by the servants, Gan Hu and the others hurriedly got up to greet him, Li Chao saw that Yan Yan was here, and secretly said in his heart Fortunately, it seems that he guessed correctly.

The first sentence of Li Chao's mouth made everyone nervous, and Shen Mi directly reached out to hold the knife, Gan Ning waved his hand, signaling that there was no need to do this, did he still use a knife to deal with a Li Chao. Li Chao said, "When are you going to leave?" Yan Yan and Gan Hu were also taken aback, and Gan Hu hurriedly decorated and smiled: "What is the county order, hasn't it been discussed today?" Li Chao sighed and said: "Alas, now that you are preaching rebellion against Jia Duwei in my name, I have no tolerance for Jia Duwei, although I don't like you, but at this time I am in the same boat with you, why do you do this to me, I just want to live." I know that if you and the two of you are silent in the hall today, you must have lost hope for these people in Linjiang, so you naturally decided to abandon the city secretly. At this time, if I don't follow you, and wait for Jia Duwei to come, I will only have a dead end, to put it bluntly, I just want to live. ”

Yan Yan was overjoyed first, what Li Chao said was absolutely true, although there was no technical content, and it was straightforward, but Yan Yan knew that this was indeed Li Chao's current situation. In an instant, Gan Hu also figured out the key to it, and looked at Yan Yan with great joy, Gan Hu said: "It's rare that the county order understands so well, since this is the case, I won't hide it, I'll leave tonight." Li Chao was shocked, so fast, fortunately, he came in time. To tell the truth, the current Li Dynasty misses his hometown Guanghan very much, why did he run away with Jia Long in the first place, he has been displaced in the past two years, and he doesn't know what happened to Li Zhao in Jiangzhou now, I am afraid that he has been divided by Jia Long's five horses, and Li Chao is sad when he thinks of this.

When leaving Ganfu, Gan Hu said loudly: "Shen Mi, you go back to the house with the county commander, clean up and escort the county commander to the city gate to gather, you must protect the county commander." Shen Mi said yes, Li Chao smiled, still didn't believe himself, but Li Chao was ashamed in his heart, because he really wanted to go with Gan Hu. After Li Chao left, Gan Hu said to Yan Yan: "Heber, you have to help arrange the families of the children in the army, and send them to other places, don't stay in Linjiang, it's too dangerous." Yan Yan smiled: "Don't worry, it's rare that you still remember these people's families." Don't worry, anyway, there are a lot of things in my Yan family that can't be taken away, so I just gave them to them for family use, and they all moved to the countryside and lived in remote places. ”

Jiangzhou is hundreds of miles away from Linjiang, and it takes five or six days for the army to travel through the two places one way, and Jia Long only left Jiangzhou for one day at this time, so Gan Hu Yan Yan made a good place to ambush Jia Long's baggage rear army on Ganfu. This night, Linjiang City suddenly made a fuss again, countless footsteps shuttled through the city, and careful people will find that in fact, the direction of these horses is one, that is, the west gate of Linjiang County. Gan Hu and Yan Yan were already waiting at the west gate, and there were more than a dozen carriages behind them, all of which were holding brocade curtains, and it seemed that they were the daughters of the two families. After a while, I saw Shen Mi running over first, and said to Gan Hu, who was looking at him, "Master, the county order is here." "I saw that Li Chao also hurriedly hit the horse and ran, although Li Chao is a civil official, but the children of the scholar clan relearn the six rites, so the riding skills are still okay, Li Chao followed the three carriages behind him, I am afraid that it is also Li Chao's family, and there are several big carts, which are loaded with things that I don't know what they are. It seems that it is Li Chao's harvest in Linjiang again, Gan Hu couldn't help but scolded in his heart, damn it has only been a few days since he came to Linjiang, and he has obtained so many treasures.

Gan Ning also rushed over at this time and said to Gan Hu: "Father, it's okay, everyone who can come has come, there are a total of 3,600 people, including 200 nursing homes in the county order." Gan Hu glared at a trace of blood on Gan Ning's armor, and scolded: "What about those who don't come, was it killed by you beast." Gan Ning was also anxious, and shouted loudly: "These ungrateful things, greedy for life and afraid of death, kill them, what is the pity." Gan Hu was about to be whipped, but Yan Yan hurriedly grabbed it and said, "It's not appropriate to stay for a long time at this time, let's go, don't be distracted." At the same time, he motioned to Gan Ning with his eyes, and Gan Ning hurriedly fled away to command the soldiers and horses out of the city.

Gan Hu threw the horsewhip, obviously still angry. Gan Ning will always be like this, if you are good to him, he will work hard for you, if anyone is not good to Gan Ning, the consequences will be serious. The light ones are empty, and the heavy ones are like today, I don't know how many people Gan Ning killed, alas.
