Chapter 62 This Life Is Enough

"What! Gangneung is lost! ”

Gan Ning's eyes widened angrily and stared at Jiang Qin in disbelief, while Jiang Qin and Pang Tong had very calm looks. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info// update fast //

"The governor of the capital is angry, Jiangling is only three thousand defenders, Sun Quan betrayed the covenant and attacked Jiangling, Gongyi and Shiyuan can be safe and sound, this is a great luck in misfortune."

Zhou Tai had to stand up and speak fairly for Jiang Qin and Pang Tong.

The responsibility is not on the two of them.

Even if Jiangdong is not a sneak attack, but a frontal attack, Gangneung will not last an hour.

Moreover, in advance, Fan Cheng had warned Gan Ning, although this kind of kindness from the enemy made people have to think about conspiracy, but it turned out that this time Cao Wei was indeed true.

Sun Quan surrendered to Cao Wei, allied with Cao Wei, and then attacked Jiangling, cutting off the retreat of the Taiping army.

Gan Ning's eyes were full of astonishment, and he was so angry that he almost vomited blood.

Trembling and sitting down, Gan Ning clenched his fists, and a wave of anger filled his chest.

Jiang Qin, Zhou Tai, Meng Da, and Pang Tong all looked at Gan Ning to see how he should make a decision.

"Metropolitan Governor, our army's food and grass are less than ten days' needs, and now that Jiangling is lost, please make a decision immediately."

Meng Da must remind Gan Ning of his current situation.

Originally, Pang Tong and Jiang Qin were responsible for the grain and grass in the rear, but after the fall of Jiangling, the supply of Ganning's 100,000 troops was naturally cut off.

Gritting his teeth, Gan Ning, who was furious, lowered his head and opened his blood-red eyes.

What to do?

What to do?!

Do you want to go on the assault on Fancheng?

No way!

Although Fancheng is also short of food and grass, how long it can be supported, Gan Ning can't guess in vain, and since Cao Wei has formed an alliance with Jiangdong, Gan Ning continues to stay on the front line of Fancheng, and it is very likely that he will face the crisis of being attacked by the enemy.

Will the South return to fight back at Gangneung?

Not at all!

Jiangdong must be ready to meet his counterattack this time, and the grain and grass of the 100,000 soldiers of the Taiping army are not enough to support them to go to Jiangling to fight another battle, even if Xincheng Shangyong can continue to transport grain and grass, but at that time, Cao Ren of Fancheng will definitely attack the grain transportation troops.

There is no way out on either side of the north and south.

To the east, throw yourself into the net and go to Cao Wei and Jiangdong's territories, so that the other party can close the door and kill him?

To the west, you can only go back to Yizhou through Xincheng Shangyong.

However, Gan Ning hesitated, he had an enmity with Wu Yi, and it was already intolerable, at this time, would Wu Yi get in the way?

As long as the wall is clear, Wu Yi can shirk all the responsibility and let Gan Ning's nearly 100,000 troops be buried on the way.

Just when Gan Ning hesitated and fell into a fierce struggle, Pang Tong asked the other generals to withdraw from the tent.

There were Pang Tong and Gan Ning in the tent, and Gan Ning was still pondering, and he didn't pay attention to the changes in the tent at all.

"Metropolitan Governor, when the lord left from Jiangling last time, he informed the Metropolitan Governor of the strategy of how to capture Fancheng, and also handed over a bag to the Metropolitan Governor before leaving, and instructed the Metropolitan Governor to open the bag when the situation turned sharply, now, doesn't the Metropolitan Governor think that the time is right?"

Pang Tong, who was wearing a crown and wide sleeves on his head, looked at Gan Ning very calmly.

It seemed that Gan Ning was racking his brains for a desperate situation, but he was calm and did not feel the slightest nervousness.

Gan Ning was taken aback, raised his head and looked at Pang Tong in disbelief, and then he also found that there were only two people left in the tent.

"How did the military advisor know about this?"

If it weren't for Pang Tong's reminder, Gan Ning would have almost forgotten about it, maybe it was Xiangfan's great victory, and the flooding of the Seven Army's feats made him indeed a little carried away.

Pang Tong's eyes were calm, and he said lightly: "The matter entrusted by the lord to the general, the lower officials all know, including the general's disobedience to the order, and the lord instructed the general in advance. These side matters, the general still don't get to the bottom of it, open the tips of the main bus support, how to go next, the general will not be distressed. ”

Gan Ning thought that only he knew the secret order that Guo Jia secretly gave him, but he didn't expect Pang Tong to know everything, and it seemed that Pang Tong knew better.

Ignoring anything else, Gan Ning took out the bag given to him by Guo Jia, opened it, and immediately gasped.

Raising his head to look at Pang Tong, Gan Ning asked rhetorically: "Can the lord guarantee that Wu Ziyuan will not take revenge on me with resentment?" ”

It is very clear on the secret order that Gan Ning is ordered to withdraw his troops back to Yizhou through Xincheng Shangyong, there is only one way to go, if you take other roads, you will definitely die!

Pang Tong suddenly raised a smile on the corner of his mouth, and asked instead of answering: "Doesn't the general understand now?" ”

Gan Ning was speechless, lowered his head and pondered, many events flashed in his mind, from the inexplicable disagreement between him and Wu Yi, the conflict broke out, from the upper and lower colleagues who admired each other in the past to the dark enemies who were strangers, it seemed that there was an invisible big hand leading all this.

Raising this subtle contradiction to a complete dishonesty and rebellion is the handiwork of the person in front of Gan Ning, without Pang Tong's design for Gan Ning to let Wu Yi falsely accuse Gan Ning, perhaps Gan Ning has not reached the point of life and death for Wu Yi and is difficult to trust.

"Why?"

Gan Ning's voice was cold and unbelievable, the person who controlled everything behind the scenes was naturally the person he had faithfully repaid for more than 20 years, his lord - Guo Jia.

Pang Tong took a step forward, looked down at Gan Ning, and said solemnly: "For the world!" ”

Gan Ning's expression was shocked, and he suddenly woke up.

He was used by Guo Jia as a chess piece, there is nothing wrong, all the civil and military forces under Guo Jia are a chess piece in Guo Jia's hands, how to destroy the enemy and win in the chess game of the world is what they are pursuing.

Now is not the time to vent his feelings, if the two are friends, Guo Jia will owe Gan Ning an explanation, but since Guo Jia's title at the foot of Taihang Mountain became the lord, Gan Ning has come to his senses.

There is no lord who is a vassal, but a lord who forsaken his vassals.

What Guo Jia does, he never needs to explain to anyone, how to see, how to understand, and how to choose how to respond, it is the power of the minister, but it is not what Guo Jia forced.

Gan Ning showed a smile that he hadn't seen for a long time, a smile from the heart.

I used to think that Guo Jia was not ruthless enough, not bloody enough.

Gan Ning was wrong, his ideal lord, in fact, Guo Jia had already met it, but he didn't know it.

If it is for victory, for the final result, then even if he sacrifices a person and sacrifices Gan Ning himself, he has no regrets and no regrets, and the royal road is ruthless, since Pang Tong has said on behalf of Guo Jia that it is for the world, then Gan Ning can accept this explanation.

Thinking through everything, Gan Ning suddenly got up, and the previous anger and struggle were swept away.

"Heh, next, the lord is going to sweep Jiangdong!"

Gan Ning had already figured out all the key points, since Guo Jia had almost given Jiangling to Sun Quan, it was obvious that he was going to wage war against Jiangdong.

Pang Tong was silent, just responded to Gan Ning with a tacit smile.

"It's a pity, I'm afraid I won't have a chance to fight this battle to destroy Wu."

Gan Ning strode past Pang Tong with his head held high and walked out.

With firm steps and resolute eyes, Gan Ning smiled.

Wu Jun Sun family, soon, it will be history!

Gan Ning went out to arrange the withdrawal of troops to the west, and he knew that with his previous three disobediences and the consequences of losing Nanjun and Yidu County and Jianping County, he would probably face an unpredictable punishment when he returned to Yizhou.

Guo Jia's majesty is inviolable, Gan Ning's actions are to set himself on fire, and if Guo Jia is still light on Gan Ning, it will be difficult to convince the public, so Gan Ning has already realized that even if he returns to Chengdu to die, he has nothing to fear.

Pang Tong, who was left alone in the tent, closed his eyes and muttered: "Governor, you don't know how much the lord loves you, at this point, if the lord sacrifices you, you can lead all the anger of the Taiping army to Jiangdong, but the lord chose to abandon the country." ”

Ten days later, Gan Ning led all the Taiping troops on the Xiangfan battlefield to cross the Han River and come to Xincheng County.

Outside the Xincheng Zhizhi City, Wu Yi led the army out of the city to greet him.

At this moment, Wu Yi felt ashamed, and so did Gan Ning.

When the two met, it was like a world apart.

The high-spirited Gan Ning became lonely, and Wu Yi was also full of complexity and unbearable.

Wu Yi acted according to Guo Jia's secret orders, and Gan Ning didn't know everything about Wu Yi.

Gan Ning is the same, just like that, the two created a situation of incompatibility.

When Cao Wei and Jiangdong both thought that Gan Ning would not pass through Wu Yi's defense area, and when Cao and Sun both thought that Gan Ning would eventually lose 100,000 troops in Jingzhou, the arrogant Gan Ning led his army straight to Wu Yi's defense area and lowered his arrogant head.

The two sides combined with more than 100,000 Taiping troops, and under the scorching sun, in front of the officers and soldiers of the three armies, Wu Yi took out Guo Jia's order in public.

Count Gan Ning's major crimes one by one.

The whole army shook, and almost a riot broke out.

But as soon as Gan Ning raised his hand, the audience fell into silence again, he turned over and dismounted, walked straight to Wu Yi, and said lightly: "A certain is up to the lord." ”

Wu Yi's face was heavy, and he said guiltily in a low voice: "Governor, I have offended." ”

In front of hundreds of thousands of soldiers, Gan Ning was shackled by Wu Yi and locked in a prisoner car.

The whole army was moved, and the 100,000 Taiping troops collectively knelt on the ground and pleaded.

Gan Ning, who was wearing shackles in the prisoner car, saw this scene and looked up to the sky and laughed.

"This life is enough!"

The order was given by Guo Jia.

Not to mention that these 100,000 soldiers pleaded for mercy, unless there was a mutiny, Wu Yi would not have the slightest concession, otherwise he would be ineffective.

Gan Ning, the most prestigious commander of the Taiping Army, was locked in a prisoner car and escorted back to Chengdu, Yizhou, starting from Xincheng.

100,000 soldiers crossed Daba Mountain from Shangyong County and returned to Padang County to rest.

In Jingzhou, Guo Jia's only territory is only two counties of Xincheng and Shangyong, and Cao Wei must quickly recuperate after the battle of Xiangfan, and these two counties are still worry-free for the time being.

After attacking the three counties of Nanjun, Yidu, and Jianping, and purging all the Taiping troops south of the Yangtze River in Jingzhou, Jiangdong is about to enter a period of full-speed development.

As long as they have time to stabilize the situation in Jingzhou, they have time to sweep through Jingnan.

However, neither Cao Wei nor Jiangdong thought that Gan Xingba, who had no one in his eyes and looked down on the world, actually fled back to Xincheng like a lost dog, and Wu Yi, who was incompatible with Gan Ning, did not interfere with it, and the strength of the Taiping army in the south still did not hurt the muscles and bones.

At the head of Jiangling City, Lu Xun looked to the west and muttered: "Guo Jia, can you give Jiangdong three years?" ”

In three years, Jiangdong can fully control Jingzhou, and its strength will reach a higher level, both in terms of military strength and comprehensive strength.

After the defeat in Jingzhou, Guo Jia still had 200,000 soldiers and horses in Yizhou, and 50,000 in Xincheng.

Lu Xun didn't know where Guo Jia would go next.

This step will be the key to the pattern of the world.

Should he lead the army north to extinguish Ma Chao's rebellion, or send troops to crusade against Jiangdong first?

Judging from the situation that Guo Jia ordered Gan Ning to withdraw his troops several times before, it seems that Guo Jia should choose to stabilize the interior first, after all, Ma Chao is immortal, and the 100,000 troops under Zhang Liao and Yan Yan are always in danger.
