Chapter 44: Drunken gaffes

Winter goes to spring, warm back to the earth, when the 14th year of Jian'an March, Cao Wei spent the "harsh winter", Jiangdong recovered some vitality after the Red Cliff War, the soldiers and horses stationed in Jiangxia stood firm under the leadership of Zhou Yu, Liu Bei, who stole the féi, also raised his ambition again in the new year, and the Taiping army after the harsh winter, has begun the next step of the preparation of attacking the city and plundering the land. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info//Fast update//

The wind and the sun are beautiful, the sky is cloudless, and the county that once almost made Guo Jia's life in Jiuquan is full of desolation inside and out.

The gate of the small county town was closed, and there were 30,000 soldiers and horses stationed in the city, and the leader who came here was Meng Da.

Above the city tower, Meng Da looked to the north, and as far as his eye could see, a long dragon of humanoid teams suddenly appeared.

The sound of heavy footsteps came, and Meng Da didn't look back, only heard Dianman, who ran behind him, say with a little frustration: "General Yu, General Wu will lead an army of 10,000 to escort grain and grass into the city within an hour." ”

Meng Da sighed silently, it was a pity to be as full as Dianman, and looked thoughtfully in the direction of Fancheng in the north, Meng Da secretly clenched his fists.

Cao Zixiao is so cautious!

"Open the gates of the city and greet me out of the city."

Meng Da led 30,000 soldiers and horses from Jiangling to Bian County, either to expel the grain and grass escorted by Wu Yi, or to prepare for a big battle, and between the two, the final situation was the former.

When the pawn was full, Xu Yi rode out of the city with Meng Da and expelled Wu Yi.

Wu Yi, who came from Xincheng, was cautious and cautiously led the army to arrive safely in the county, and finally let go of his hanging heart.

Looking at Meng Da and the others who expelled him at the gate of the city, Wu Yi breathed a sigh of relief.

This grain and grass baggage was transported from Hanzhong to Yonghe Xincheng, and in order to be safely transported to Jiangling, it was essential to face the sneak attack of Fancheng Caoren.

Before leaving, Fa Zheng asked Wu Yi to agree with Gan Ning in Jiangling that this time to transport supplies could be used as a lure to the enemy, Wu Yi only brought 10,000 soldiers and horses, if Cao Ren of Fancheng attacked Wu Yi on the road and tried to loot or destroy the grain and grass, then the soldiers and horses sent by Gan Ning were arranged by Huang Que behind.

It's a pity that Cao Ren was conservative, and in the face of Wu Yi's 10,000 soldiers and horses, he was indifferent, so that Wu Yi arrived in Bian County safely all the way, and after joining Meng Da, Cao Ren wanted to fight, and a head-on conflict would break out, and it could not be a sneak attack.

Outside the county, Meng Da and Wu Yi met each other, and after a pleasantry, they entered the city to rest.

This time, the plan to use Wu Yi as a bait to lure Cao Ren out of Fancheng failed, it was not an unexpected thing, Cao Ren of Fancheng now only has 70,000 soldiers and horses, Cao Wei must have a process of reorganization and training to step up the recruitment of troops in Hebei, what Cao Ren has to do now is to hold Fancheng, the throat of Cao Wei's forces in the south, and he can't afford to take any risks.

After resting for two days in the county, Wu Yi continued to lead the army to escort the grain and grass to Jiangling.

Gan Ning, who was in Jiangling, heard the news of the return from the front, and he pondered as he was checking the map of the Xiangfan area in the tent.

Over the years, since the conflict with Wu Yi during the expedition to the northwest, he and Wu Yi seem to have broken off contact, although the relationship between superiors and subordinates is higher than that of Gan Ning, but Wu Yi has not even done anything to exchange courtesy with his boss, which makes Gan Ning very angry.

Anyway, he promoted Wu Yi back then.

Anyway, as the governor of the Taiping Army, Wu Yi should not even give Gan Ning a trace of face.

Isn't it just marrying a younger sister to the lord?

What is there to be proud of?

Gan Ning walked out of the handsome tent with his hands in his hands and ordered someone to hold a banquet in the Jiangling Mansion, which was regarded as a reward for Wu Yi's hard work along the way.

In order to speed up the speed of the march and transport supplies, Meng Darang Dian Man led the new army to return to Jiangling with Wu Yi, so that the soldiers and horses would alternately undertake the task of escorting, and the efficiency would be greatly improved.

When he came to the outside of Jiangling City, Wu Yi, who was riding on a horse, couldn't help but sink his face when he saw the Taiping army waiting solemnly at the head of Jiangling City and the wide open city gate.

Outside the city, there was no one to answer!

It's not that Wu Yi deserves Gan Ning's welcome from the middle of the road, at least someone must come to receive him, right?

After leading the army into the city, Dian Man led the army to take away the grain and grass, and Wu Yi only found out at this time that someone had come to inform him that Gan Ning held a banquet in the government to give Wu Yi the wind and wash the dust.

With a look of precaution, Wu Yi walked into the palace with his head held high, and before he stepped into the main hall, he heard the sound of hearty laughter from inside.

Wu Yi's face became more and more gloomy.

Is this the reception banquet that Gan Ningmei called the name?

Before the protagonist arrives, does it start?

Sure enough, Wu Yi crossed the threshold and saw Gan Ning sitting on the main seat with a wine bowl drinking, in the hall, Pang Tong, Zhou Tai, Jiang Qin, and many young generals sent out were present, Gan Gui, Zhang Hu, Zhang Fang, etc.

The banquet was halfway through, and the generals were full of red faces, chatting about the world, how could there be any sincerity to set up a banquet for him Wu Yi?

"Ziyuan is here, come and come, Ziyuan has worked hard, and the weight of escorting grain and grass is even more thrilling, so drink a glass of wine first to suppress the shock."

Gan Ning stretched out his hand and pointed to the seat, ranking last, so that he was behind Zhang Hu.

In addition to words, plus actions, all of them are crowding out Wu Yi.

Wu Yi clenched his fists, looked away and said coldly: "It is the duty of the last general to escort the grain and grass, and he does not dare to take credit, and most of the governors are willing to reward a glass of wine, which is the honor of the last general." ”

With that, Wu Yi sat at the end of the table, picked up the wine bowl full of wine and drank it all, and then slammed the wine bowl on the table.

This sound was clearly heard by everyone in the hall, and all of a sudden, the laughter fell silent.

Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin are obviously on Gan Ning's side, and they have known the contradictions between Wu Yi and Gan Ning over the years, but in the army, they have to serve the generals and the subordinates who are not convinced.

If you lead troops to fight, if your subordinates are working against your superiors, how can you bring this army?

Therefore, Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin lowered their faces and stared at Wu Yi with displeasure on their faces, watching how Gan Ning would deal with the situation.

Disobedient subordinates, subordinates who always contradict and do not know the current affairs, must be taught and beaten, otherwise they will learn from each other, and they will not have the prestige of the general, isn't it in name only?

The young generals such as Gan Gui and Zhang Hu have not seen much of a big scene, and the internal contradictions of their own people in the army have made them even more silent, and they dare not mix with each other, let alone come forward and rashly wave the flag for whom.

In the hall, only Pang Tong's face was indifferent, so that a faint smile appeared on his ugly face.

"Ziyuan, I set up a banquet for you, you don't seem to appreciate it, when did I offend you? You might as well say it today, the man acts above board, if you are dissatisfied with me, you don't have to press it in your heart. ”

Gan Ning's face was flushed, obviously a little drunk, and at this moment, he suddenly showed a slight hideous color, bursting out the dissatisfaction with Wu Yi in his heart.

Wu Yi has something unspeakable, he and Gan Ning are in trouble to this day, which really comes from the secret order that Guo Jia gave him back then, but today's actions of Gan Ning did anger Wu Yi.

Receiving the wind banquet, Wu Yi is not rare!

The point is that the generals of the Taiping Army have not yet reached the point of complacency.

There is Cao Ren of Xiangfan in the north, and Zhou Yu of Jiangxia in the east, and if the Taiping army is not careful, it will be doomed.

"All of you here are generals in important positions in the army, so I would like to ask you, can we celebrate unscrupulously now? If Gangneung is lost, how should we substitute for the main bus? ”

Wu Yi's words were sonorous, his tone was heavy, his chest was rugged, and the anger that clearly surrounded his heart was not unpleasant.

The hall was silent again, and Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin were already a little angry.

Wu Yi is right, the Taiping Army should not get carried away and drink and have fun.

But they don't do this every day, except for the banquet held by Ganning when they celebrated with the people of Gangneung at the beginning of the year, this is the first time in more than two months.

How did it come to Wu Yi's mouth, and it was heard that they had all become wine bags and rice bags?

Gan Ning got up with a red face, brought down the low table, and the wine and food were scattered all over the ground, shocking to the eyes.

The footsteps were vain, Gan Ning almost fell, and his son Gan Gui wanted to help him on the side, but was slapped open by Gan Ning.

With drunken eyes, Gan Ning swayed in front of Wu Yi, his face expressionless, and his eyes looking down at Wu Yi were full of complexity.

"Ziyuan, a certain independent husband followed him when he was a teenager, and you won't understand what he has experienced. Where were you when the lord almost died in Luoyang? When you conquered Chengdu for the princess, you were just a prisoner. When the Lord captured Guanzhong, when a certain army led an army to attack in the starry night, you were only in the rear. Attacking Jingzhou in the northwest, a certain led the army to move forward. What qualifications do you have to teach me? ”

Gan Ning roared like a beast in front of Wu Yi.

In terms of outstanding military exploits, no one in the Taiping army can compare with Gan Ning.

If you want to say that Gan Ning has anything to criticize on the battlefield in this life, it is only that when Yuan Shao attacked, Gan Ning pursued Cao but was killed halfway by the tiger and leopard, resulting in failure.

Compared with the military achievements, any one in the Taiping army has to look at it, Wu Yi was speechless and silent.

Wu Yi's arrogance had already been suppressed, but the more Gan Ning spoke, the more excited he became, and suddenly waved his arms and shouted at Wu Yi: "If the lord didn't have me Gan Xingba, how could he have today's foundation?" If the lord doesn't have you Wu Yi, it's nothing more than a concubine missing a warm bed! ”

Wu Yi looked at Gan Ning with his head high, dumbfounded, and physically and mentally shocked!

Except for Pang Tong in the hall, everyone else also changed their colors when they heard the words!

"Ahem."

Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin hurriedly got up and went to Laganning to go back.

That sentence is not something that can be said casually!

It's just a matter of satirizing Wu Yi, and even saying that Guo Jia is an incompetent monarch is a heart-wrenching remark!

Gan Ning ignored Zhou Tai Jiang Qin, who came forward to pull him, struggling left and right, panting and looking at Wu Yi.

Wu Yi didn't expect Gan Ning to be furious, as if he had come to his senses after being drunk, whether these words were faint or heartfelt, since they were said, they must not be regarded as deaf ears.

"Governor, is that how you see your lordship? You must understand that it is not that the Lord would not have today's inheritance without you, but that if you are not appreciated by the Lord, you will never have today's achievements! Forgive me for my resignation, and the words of the Metropolitan Governor will be conveyed to the lord below! ”

Wu Yi didn't salute after speaking, turned around and walked out.

The stunned young generals in the hall didn't react, but Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin were not confused, and if Wu Yi really let Gan Ning's words just now reach Guo Jia's ears, Gan Ning would definitely suffer.

"Someone, stop General Wu, put him in the middle room of the mansion, and guard him strictly."
