Chapter 397: Good News?

Sun Quan's march was fast.

In the vicinity of Jiangxia, he defeated Guan Yu's naval army many times, forcibly controlled the Hanshui Valley, and formed a momentum of Mount Tai overwhelming Guan Yu.

Sun Quan was so pleased with the outcome that he banged heavily on the bow fence of the ship, rejoicing at how well the battle had gone well.

But as the commander under his command, Lu Su did not feel that the battle was progressing smoothly.

He defeated Guan Yu many times, and the whole army continued to move forward, but there was no sign of annihilating a large number of Guan Yu's soldiers at all, and even Guan Yu's army could calmly lead the people to retreat together when retreating.

Compared with the Wu army, which had just ended the Battle of Hefei and was quite tired and confused, Guan Yu's army showed an extremely strong fighting spirit, the whole army was dispatched in an orderly manner, and he did not eat Lu Su's radical tactics at all.

Lu Su tried several times to use Guan Yu's pride to attract him to a decisive battle with him, and then let Wu Jun outflank him by virtue of his numerical advantage, but Guan Yu failed to do so anyway.

He fought and retreated, and the Wu army was likely to face the dilemma of the Jiangling siege again.

"Supreme, Guan Yu has already taken precautions, please ask the Supreme to be clear."

Lu Su meant to let Sun Quan not be too happy, so as not to lose his mind in the future.

But Sun Quan didn't hear what he meant, just nodded lightly:

"Guan Yu has been on the battlefield for a long time, and it is common to be on guard.

Hey, our army is gaining momentum now, tell Guan Yu that if he doesn't descend, he will definitely be taken to the top level! ”

Lu Su: ......

The psychological impact of the Battle of Hefei on Sun Quan was greater than expected.

In the past, Sun Quan still had good judgment, but now all he was thinking about was making up for the losses in Hefei.

From Guan Yu's body.

Not all Wu generals are irrational, they can all sense that Guan Yu must be planning something.

Otherwise, this famous general, who is known for his supreme force, will definitely find an opportunity to fight a decisive battle with Sun Quanjun, and will never choose this kind of fighting and retreating style.

Gan Ning said to Lu Su worriedly:

"I think Guan Yu's old thief has a big plan. This man is arrogant, and his soldiers and horses are not weak, and I have lured the enemy several times before, but his forces are above mine, but he refuses to attack, but keeps retreating.

I thought of Gongjin's attack on Jiangling and Guan Yu's desperate northern province, didn't this thief set up a plan back then, and wanted me to be fooled? ”

"Besides, we are working with Cao Gong to attack Jingzhou, why should we take the lead in attacking Jiangling?

It is better to take advantage of the Wei army to go south and wait for an opportunity to attack Xiangyang.

The benefits of attacking Xiangyang are self-evident, and please check it out. ”

Of course, Lu Su knew that there were many benefits to attacking Xiangyang now.

Nominally, Xiangyang's defender Le Jin is a Wei general, attacking this place can meet Cao Wei's requirements, and after breaking through Xiangyang, he can still occupy the north-south traffic area, and the best thing is that he did not turn his face with Liu Bei, and then everyone can be friends happily.

The attack on Jiangling is different, Sun Quan and Guan Yu have a hard time, no matter who dies on both sides, there will be a huge knot, and it will be difficult to return to the previous state of intimacy and sending troops together.

Although Gan Ning is rough and short-tempered on the outside, he is really delicate on the inside.

Since the beginning of the army, he has been superficially submissive to Sun Quan, but he has been pressuring Lu Su and others to find a way to stop this crazy move.

But it seems that there is no good effect now......

After Sun Quanjun defeated Guan Yu in a row, he was ready to go from Hanshui to Xiashui to launch the final blow to Jiangling guarded by Guan Yu, and now he was ready to fly, and it was really unrealistic to dissuade him with just a few words.

Gan Ning wanted to say more, but a pawn hurriedly came under his command and whispered in his ear, and Gan Ning's face immediately changed greatly.

Lu Su hurriedly asked:

"What's wrong?"

Gan Ning looked at Lu Su suspiciously, and said contemplatively:

"It seems that Cai Mao sent someone!"

"Cai Mao sent someone?!" Lu Su was taken aback.

Although Cai Mao and Sun Quan do not have such a deep hatred as Huang Zu, after all, they have been grudges for a long time and are difficult to reconcile.

"I'm going to pass on the Supreme! Bring the messenger up! ”

Lu Su left in a hurry, and Gan Ning gave the pawn a look:

"What's wrong?"

The pawn said in a low voice: "Cai Mao sent his brother Cai Zhong to present a map, saying that now the Cao army has been fighting for a long time and is not even able to attack Wancheng, Cai Mao is very disappointed.

He was willing to hand over Xiangyang Fancheng to welcome General Sun into the city, and all the land of Jingzhou belonged to the general. ”

Gan Ning was stunned for a moment, and then sneered:

"In this case, he must have told Cao Ren again."

After all, Gan Ning had been with Liu Biao for a while, and he still knew Cai Mao's temperament very well.

Cai Mao is very insidious and extremely greedy for power.

Now that Cao Jun is attacking Wancheng, it is his opportunity to get up and down, he must have sent similar letters to Cao Ren and Sun Quan to show his loyalty, and Lejin Guan Yu's desk must also have his letter of allegiance, see who has the highest price, he will vote under whom.

"The dog thief at both ends of the first rat." Gan Ning scolded and just wanted to leave, but he seemed to suddenly feel something and quickly stopped.

Wrong.

Cai Mao was the last to rebel against Cao Cao during the Battle of Chibi, and if it weren't for Guan Ping, he might have followed Cao Cao all the way to the black.

Now that the war has just begun, Lejin's elite soldiers have not yet been mobilized, and Cai Mao can't wait to start preparing to turn around - if he sends an ordinary servant businessman, it will be forgotten, and then the big deal can be disowned, and no one will investigate deeply.

But now he actually sent his own clan brother Cai Zhong......

It's not something that can be sent by just a servant.

If Sun Quan fails in the future, Le Jin and Guan Yu will not let Cai Mao go, and they will definitely deal with this person severely.

Not good!

Gan Ning rushed to Sun Quan's big tent, but saw that Lu Su had already led a smiling scribe into the tent, Gan Ning quickly stepped forward, and several generals under Sun Quan's command hurriedly rushed up and shouted:

"The Supreme Guest, please wait for the general."

Gan Ning was afraid that Sun Quan would preconceive and believe Cai Zhong's nonsense, so he hurriedly said: "I have an urgent military situation to see the Supreme, please let me for the time being." ”

Several generals knew Gan Ning's identity, and they were also worried that there was indeed an emergency, and their faces suddenly showed hesitation.

They were just about to disperse, but they heard a snort, and saw a short man in sackcloth walking slowly.

The man threw a mocking look at Gan Ning, couldn't help coughing a few times, and frowned: "What is the emergency military situation?" Can you tell me about it? ”

That person was Gan Ning's sworn enemy, Ling Tong.

Ling Cao, the father of Ling Tong, was killed by Gan Ning himself in the battle against Liu Biao, and later Gan Ning defected to Sun Quan, and Ling Tong tried to kill Gan Ning several times but was stopped by Sun Quan.

Although the two of them can remain normal in business, it is impossible for Gan Ning's stinky temper to have friends at all, and Ling Tong doesn't mind disgusting Gan Ning in trivial matters.

Gan Ning saw that it was Ling Tong, and he didn't bother to say more to him, so he lowered his head directly and wanted to break into the account.

Ling Tong directly pulled out the long sword on his waist and pointed at Gan Ning and said:

"Stand out, who would dare to enter without the order of the Supreme? Gan Ning, do you want to rebel?

Everyone has looked at it, this Gan Ning is lawless, and his eyes are not respectful? ”

Gan Ning's only friend in Jiangdong, Lu Meng, is still attacking Lingling, and everyone under Sun Quan sneers at Gan Ning's arrogant and vulgar people, and when they saw Gan Ning and Ling Tong eating dogs, they all cast mockery, thinking that Gan Ning was just sick again, and wanted to behave well in front of Sun Quan.

Gan Ning was angry and anxious, and said with hatred:

"Cai Mao sent someone to deceive him, this matter was detected by me, this matter is very important, you wait to stop me, if something big happens, what should I be guilty of?"

Ling Tong sneered: "Okay, I'll talk about this matter in front of the Supreme for a while, so why wait for this moment." ”

Gan Ning was furious and said with a cruel smile:

"Good ability, then I want to see how you can stop me!"

Although Ling Tong knew that his martial arts were far inferior to Gan Ning, he was still fearless in the face of Gan Ning's provocation:

"Okay, I'm going to learn General Gan's methods!"

He drew his sword and pointed at Gan Ning, and all the generals under Sun Quan also stood beside Ling Tong one after another, each drawing their swords out of their sheaths, staring at Gan Ning quite vigilantly.

Gan Ning faced countless swords alone, and his heart was full of sadness.

He laughed and sighed:

"I, Gan Ning, have known Zhugong for more than a year, and I have always been loyal to the Supreme. The Great War is coming, why do you want to do this?

Hey, didn't the princes treat Gan Ning as a brother? ”

Everyone, you look at me, I look at you, and they all feel the unspeakable anger and sadness in the heart of this fierce general.

But the more this is the case, the more people dare not approach at will.

In a fit of rage, who knows what this moody fierce will do.

Gan Ning threw the knife in his hand on the ground and sighed:

"Please tell the Supreme, just say that Cai Mao is never credible, let the Supreme ...... Think again! ”
