Chapter 474: Self-defeating
Lifting the quilt in the middle of the winter is enough to make a person angry, not to mention that Jiang Gan is still taken out, plus he often gets up angry.
Along the way, he struggled to kick his legs, scolded, and was heartbreaking, like a pig about to be slaughtered.
Zhou Yu frowned and looked at his former classmates, Jiang Gan is also a famous family in Huainan, he is very face-saving on weekdays, and he copes with it every time he has a banquet, left and right, but he didn't expect to have such an impatient side.
When Jiang Gan saw Zhou Yu in the handsome position, he had to be scattered, and jumped to his feet and scolded: "Zhou Yu, despicable and shameless, you wolf-hearted villain." β
"Shut up!" Zhou Yu took the case and shouted: "I regard you as a close friend and treat each other with sincerity, why did you come to harm my life?" β
Jiang Gan was stunned for a moment, and hissed: "I helped you avenge the Savior, and borrowed grain and grass, but you dare to bite back?" β
Zhou Yu looked up to the sky and laughed, and asked sharply: "In this case, why did Xiahoudun send troops to attack Beihai and cut me off?" β
"Huh?" Jiang Gan was stunned and said, "Is there such a thing? β
Zhou Yu said coldly: "If it weren't for the urgent report of the Beihai defenders last night, I am afraid that Xiahoudun will take advantage of my lax defense to steal the city." You sent grain and grass, but you conspired with Xiahoudun, telling me to wait for all the drunk, and the inside should be together, yes or no? β
"Oh, there is no such thing!" Jiang Gan waved his hand again and again, broke out in a cold sweat, and asked urgently, "Is this the case?" β
Zhou Yu pointed to the north: "The Wei army is besieging Beihai, the facts are there, if I hadn't seen the opportunity early, I would have already become a prisoner at this time!" β
"How so? How could this be......" Jiang Gan's mind was in chaos, and he didn't know whether it was due to fright or cold, and he shrank into a ball and shivered.
Zhou Yu said coldly: "You and I are classmates and friends, I serve the Sun family, and you return to Cao Thief, and there is no right or wrong for each of them." I don't want you to be a guest for the Cao family to murder me, and I should have beheaded you to show the public. But for the sake of friendship back then, let you out of the city today, and from then on, you will be cut off. β
Jiang Gan was shocked and shouted: "Gong Jin, there must be a misunderstanding in this matter, listen to my explanation......"
"Sending off!" Zhou Yu waved his hand, turned his back and looked up and sighed softly, sounding extremely sad and disappointed.
"Sir, please!" Xu Sheng helped Jiang Gan staggered out of the house, pulled him to the corner of the street and said in a deep voice: "It turns out that Mr. has been lying to me? β
"Never!" Jiang Gan came back to his senses and hurriedly explained: "This must be Xiahoudun's own opinion, I don't know, although the general can rest assured, I will definitely find out about this matter, and Prime Minister Cao Cheng will definitely have an answer." β
Xu Sheng stared at Jiang Gan: "How can I believe you?" β
Jiang Gan hurriedly said: "I have a written note in the hands of the general, if there is a broken promise, you can go to Huainan to mortgage the property, what is the doubt?" β
"That's right!" Xu Sheng thought for a while, sent Jiang Gan back to the pavilion, and waited for him to be dressed and sent out of the city.
Jiang Gan led a group of entourage, angrily rushed straight to the Wei army camp, ready to raise the teacher to ask for guilt, but when he arrived at the bank of the river, he was dumbfounded, like ice cubes frozen on his horse.
I saw that the camp of the Wei army had been reduced to ashes, and as far as the eye could see, the coast was full of scorched earth, people and horses were burned to death, and when the morning breeze blew, some corpses turned into ashes and dissipated.
Outside the camp there were dead bodies everywhere, completely frozen, clotted blood clots scarlet and dazzling, and then walking to the shore, there were countless corpses on the ice of the river, and some soldiers were frozen to death before they could get dressed.
The purgatory-like scene was unbearable, Jiang Gan closed his eyes and took a deep breath, looked up to the sky and shouted: "Wufu misunderstood me!" β
He led everyone across the river to chase the deserters, and chased them straight to Zhangqiu City, where the soldiers patrolling the city saw that it was Jiang Gan, shot back with bows and arrows, and hurriedly went to pray.
"How dare this dog thief chase here?" Xiahou was furious when he heard the report, and went out to fight, but when he arrived outside the city, he saw that only Jiang Gan and his party were there, and scolded, "Jiang Gan, do you dare to come to die?" β
Although Jiang Gan was a scribe, his good future was shattered by Xiahoudun, and he was so angry in his heart that he was not afraid, and immediately stepped forward and asked: "Xiahoudun, I have formed an alliance with Zhou Lang, why did I secretly send troops to attack Beihai and provoke the Wu army?" β
"This ......" Xiahoudun brandished his broadsword and was about to behead Jiang Gan under his horse, when he heard the words, he was stunned on the spot, and finally understood why the Wu army raided overnight.
When Jiang Gan saw Xiahou Xuan's expression, he knew that there was such a thing, and he became more and more angry, and shouted: "Xiahou Yuanrang, I persuaded Zhou Yu to surrender on the order of the prime minister, although it was unsuccessful, but I agreed to form an alliance against Liu Qi. Even if the general is dissatisfied, he should wait for the prime minister's order to arrive before making a decision, and send troops privately, what should he be guilty of? β
"Alas!" Xiahoudun also regretted it, and shook his head helplessly: "It's also my fault for being rash, in fact, it's ......."
Originally, he was going to wait for Jiang Gan to discuss the matter after returning to the camp yesterday, but who knew that Jiang Gan stayed in the city to have a banquet with Zhou Yu, and he was also in the camp in anger, but he forgot about it, and wanted to threaten Zhou Yu with the soldiers of the North Sea, but it turned out to be self-defeating.
Jiang Gan was unforgiving, and said loudly with his fists clenched: "Please give me a reasonable explanation!" β
Xiahoudun's face turned pale, and he clenched his fists and said, "Please Mr. come into the city to speak." β
Jiang Gan also knew that Xiahou was the confidant general of the Cao family, and the martial artist was short-tempered, so he didn't dare to be too persecutive, so he snorted coldly and entered the city proudly.
When he arrived at the mansion and sat down, Jiang Gan had calmed down, sulking and not saying a word, since this matter was bad for Xiahoudun, he had to bear it, nepotism, no wonder Cao Cao was defeated repeatedly.
Xiahoudun sighed lightly: "I had no intention of attacking Beihai, just to deter Wu soldiers, who knew that Zhou Lang Xiao'er was so irritable?" AlasβI wonder what else Mr. has to do? β
"Zhou Yu is arrogant, he can only be gentle, not strong!" Jiang Gan could only shake his head helplessly and said, "Withdraw the Beihai soldiers and horses first, so I have to go back to Xuzhou again in person to explain this matter to the prime minister to see if I can contact Zhou Lang again." β
The corners of Xiahoudun's eyes jumped, and he hurriedly hugged his fists and said, "I hope Mr. will say a few kind words!" β
Jiang Gan was about to answer, but suddenly sneezed several times, his face was pale, and Xiahoudun hurriedly ordered someone to send him to the back office, boil hot water and ginger soup, and keep warm.
Zhong Jinyan said: "These scribes have always liked to shake their lips and puff their tongues, and this time when they go back to see the prime minister, I am afraid that it will be unfavorable to the general, so we need to make plans in advance." β
Xiahou's brows furrowed, and he sighed: "Forty thousand soldiers and horses have been destroyed, how can this matter be hidden?" β
Zhong Jin said in a low voice: "The surprise attack on Beihai is Wang Ling's plan, and Tian Yu is the commander of the army, why don't the generals put this matter on the two of them, just say that they don't listen to the general's orders and send troops privately......"
"Shut up!" Xiahoudun said angrily: "Tian Yu acted on orders, and there was no fault, how could a certain dignified general be able to shirk in case of trouble, and you didn't see Zhang He and Gao Ran?" The king blames it, and a certain force bears it, and it has nothing to do with you. β
Zhong Jin was shocked, and hurriedly hugged his fists and said: "The general is angry, and the villain is speechless for a while, and he has no intention of provoking." β
Xiahoudun looked at the gloomy sky outside the door, and said slowly: "Don't I know that Brother Ru thinks about me? However, the king was edicted to beg the thief, and if he wanted to level the world, he needed to rely on the combination of civil and military, and the soldiers worked together. β
Zhong Jinrong replied: "The general is high, and the villain is ashamed of himself. β
Xiahoudun sighed lightly: "Since the war with Liu Qi, he has repeatedly lost soldiers and generals, and a certain general of the clan must lead by example, not to chill everyone, and you must also remember." β
