Three days later, Zhuge Ke, who was far away in Danyang, received a holy decree from Wu State, and Emperor Sun Quan ordered Zhuge Ke to lead 30,000 Danyang soldiers to go down to Jiaozhou by boat to recapture Jiaozhou captured by Jiang Wei.

Zhuge Ke got the holy decree, he was very proud in his heart, thinking that his chance to show his ambition had finally come, so he hurriedly found his best friend, Zhu Huan's son Zhu Yi, hoping that Zhu Yi could go with him. Zhu Yi's official position at the moment is to ride the capital lieutenant, and he is also in the prime of his life, so he agreed to Zhuge Ke's request without hesitation.

In Zhuge Ke's official office, the two enthusiastically discussed the plan for this battle together. Zhuge Ke spread out a map and said to Zhu Yi: "Brother Ji Wen, this is the map of Jiaozhou, and it is also the place that His Majesty ordered me to lead the vanguard army to capture!" ”

Zhu Yi faced the map, and saw that it was densely marked by Zhuge Ke, and he was also a little stunned, "It seems that Brother Yuan Xun has studied Jiaozhou thoroughly!" ”

Zhuge Ke was a little proud, and said to Zhu Yi: "When marching to fight, it is natural to strategize, and all aspects must be considered clearly. Whether it is the route of the march, the terrain of mountains and rivers, important strongholds, and the supply of the army, you need to think clearly one by one, so that you can know it in your heart, and you will not be afraid when you need to make a decision. ”

Zhu Yi immediately admired Zhuge Ke very much, and praised: "Brother Yuan Xun really has the qualifications of a famous general, so I admire it!" Then he asked: "I heard that Jiang Wei is Zhuge Liang's descendant disciple, known as having the capital of a unicorn, both civil and military, and even beheading Pan Zhang, Lu Dai two generals, it is very difficult to deal with, I don't know what kind of plan Brother Yuan Xun has for this southern expedition?" ”

Zhuge Ke said with a smile: "Pan Zhang's bravery, Lu Dai's old age, no match for Jiang Wei, it's normal!" This time, when I go to Jiaozhou, I will definitely defeat Jiang Wei and recover Jiaozhou before Lu Xun's main force arrives. So that everyone in the world knows that I, Zhuge Ke, am not a gentleman who lives by virtue of his father's prestige, but a pillar of talent with a strategy in his chest. ”

When Zhu Yi heard this, he was immediately excited, and one of the things he particularly admired about Zhuge Ke was that Zhuge Ke seemed so confident at any time, and this self-confidence made Zhuge Ke extremely attractive in his heart, making him eager to follow him.

However, when I came back to my senses, how could Zhuge Ke's sentence just now sound a little sarcastic about myself? Zhu Yi suddenly had a somewhat complicated expression on his face.

Fortunately, Zhu Yi and Zhuge Ke have been friends for a long time, and they know that Zhuge Ke is informal, and this is going to be a different person, Zhu Yi is worried that most of that person will fight with Zhuge Ke.

Zhuge Ke didn't notice these details at all, and continued to say to Zhu Yi: "Brother Ji Wen, my plan is to make a surprise attack on the sea and cut off Jiang Wei's retreat. ”

Zhu Yi heard that Zhuge Ke was already confident, so he was eager to know Zhuge Ke's plan.

"Oh? Yuan Xun, tell me the trick in your chest. ”

Zhuge Ke pointed to the lower left corner of the map and said to Zhu Yi:

"You see, this is Jiaozhi, which is the seat of Jiaozhou, and it is also close to the border between Jiaozhou and Yizhou. Now that the army of Shu has been brought to Guangzhou by Jiang Wei, Jiaozhi will inevitably be empty in defense, if our army crosses the sea to break Jiaozhi and cut off Jiang Wei's way back to Shu, then he will inevitably be trapped in the South China Sea. ”

Zhuge Ke pointed to Jingzhou again: "At that time, we will hold Jiaozhi, Jiang Wei will run out of food, and there is Lu Xun's Jingzhou army in the north, Jiang Wei will definitely be in a dilemma, and then our army will take advantage of Jiang Wei's lack of people to lead the army to attack before Lu Xun, isn't it like catching a turtle in an urn?" ”

When Zhu Yi heard this, he immediately clapped his hands.

"Wonderful! Yuan Xun. Your plan is really wonderful, we avoided the edge of Jiang Wei's Guangzhou army, went straight into the hinterland of Jiaozhou, and cut off Jiang Wei's retreat, this hand, presumably which mountain monkeys in Shu have never experienced a naval battle, and they can't think of killing them, I'm afraid that when they react, they will already have no power to return to the sky! ”

Zhuge Ke smiled and said: "That's right, I have arranged for Gan Xin to lead the sailor to Danyang to meet us and wait, three days later, when my army is ready, I will take the sailor to cross the sea and go south, killing him Jiang Wei by surprise!" ”

The two looked at each other and smiled, and the desire for victory swelled in their hearts, as if Jiang Wei's defeat was a foregone conclusion.

Jianye, the capital of Dongwu, is the largest city in Dongwu, with prosperous people and magnificent atmosphere.

In Jianye's sailor, Guan Yinping was locked in a room by Gan Xin, although Guan Yinping became Gan Xin's prisoner, but also a woman, Gan Xin did not make it difficult for Guan Yinping, and even did not put shackles on Guan Yinping, after the city of Guangzhou was broken, Gan Xin took Guan Yinping by boat all the way north, and finally arrived at Jianye, the capital of Eastern Wu.

Along the way, Guan Yinping tried to escape several times, but the difference between force and Gan Xin was too great, and in the vast sea, jumping ship was tantamount to death, and there was no chance to escape at all.

Later, Guan Yinping didn't bother to run away, and along the way, the two women began to chat with each other when they were bored, chatting and chatting, and the two became acquainted.

Guan Yinping's life was miserable, he lost his father at a young age, and he was basically brought up by his brother Guan Xing, so he told Gan Xin about his life experience, and after listening to Guan Yinping's life experience, Gan Xin was willing to open his heart to Guan Yinping and told Guan Yinping all his experiences.

It turns out that Gan Xin is not much better, Gan Xin has lost her mother since she was a child, although she has a father, but it is worse than losing her father, her father Gan Gui was migrated to Huiji for sin, and since then he has been infected with the vice of alcoholism, and every time he gets drunk, he will beat Gan Xin violently, which makes Gan Xin's childhood painful.

From then on, Gan Xin made a vow that when he grew up, he would kill his father, the demon, with his own hands.

Later, Gan Xin was accepted as an apprentice by Lu Xun, and he got a long-lost father's love from Lu Xun, and followed Lu Xun to learn the art of war and spells. It's a pity that his qualifications are dull, Lu Xun taught him all his life's spells, but he didn't know anything about it, and he couldn't learn it at all.

When Gan Xin originally planned to give up on himself, Lu Xun gave Gan Xin a knife. told Gan Xin that this was the saber left by her grandfather Gan Ning, and asked her to try to practice her knife skills. Originally, Gan Xin had learned some family knife techniques from her father Gan Gui, so Gan Xin practiced hard day and night with her grandfather's saber, and after many years, her kung fu improved greatly.

What is particularly amazing is that she basically didn't learn all the spells that Lu Xun passed on to her, but the most basic method of cultivating true qi in the spell was gradually integrated in the process of Gan Xin's crazy knife practice, and Gan Xin combined the true qi with the knife technique, and soon his martial arts reached a very high level, Lu Xun even praised Gan Xin, thinking that over time, Gan Xin's martial arts can completely surpass Gan Ning.

Guan Yinping heard about the wonderful use of true qi for the first time, and recalled that Jiang Wei could be so brave, and it was also because of the true qi protection body, so she had a strong interest in true qi, she once looked for Gan Xin, hoping that Gan Xin could teach her the method of cultivating true qi.

But although Gan Xin and Guan Yinping are familiar with each other, after all, they belong to two countries, and now the two countries are still at war, so Gan Xin politely refused, and Gan Xin also emphasized: The cultivation of true qi is a long process, with Guan Yinping's current age, he is only starting to cultivate true qi now, I am afraid that it is a little late.

But Guan Yinping was still not discouraged, she thought that she had a copy of "Taiping Technique" on her, fortunately Gan Xin did not search her body, so she was still on herself, this book is also a strange book of spells, when the three brothers of Zhang Jiao set off a vigorous Yellow Turban Uprising with this book, its power can be imagined.

This book was handed down by Guan Yu, and according to Guan Yinping's second brother Guan Xing, it was given to Guan Yu by Zhou Cang, who had participated in the Yellow Turban Army. That's why it can be passed on to itself. Guan Yinping had never thought of practicing this book before, but now that he understood the importance of True Qi, he secretly began to study this book.

opened "Taiping Technique", Guan Yinping was surprised to find that sure enough, any spell must start with the method of practicing qi. Guan Yinping began to practice the true qi cultivation method in the "Taiping Technique". Along the way, Guan Yinping gradually gained a little experience, and felt that there was already a faint true qi in his dantian.

After arriving in Jianye today, Gan Xin placed her in the room, just when there was no one around, she secretly opened the "Taiping Technique" again, and when she was about to practice, a gust of wind suddenly blew, blowing the book over a few pages, Guan Yinping was about to clean up the book, but was attracted by a few big characters, only to see a striking title written on the article where the book stayed:

"Dementor Chapter".
