On the one hand, Gan Ning had a good impression of Liu Xun's sincere performance in his heart, and after contacting Liu Xun, he felt that this person did have the posture of a master.

And on the other hand, Jiang Xia Huangzu, who he is about to defect to, can not be better than Liu Xun if he is gone, or in terms of his attitude towards others, he can't compare at all.

"My lord really tortured me, I was reckless, how could I be treated so favorably by my lord. Since you look up to me Gan Ning so much, how can Gan Ning be the person who doesn't know what to do. ”

Gan Ning also has some ideas in his heart, no matter what, he is talking about getting rid of the identity of the water thief first, and as for the future road, he will talk about it later. After all, Gan Ning came to meet Liu Xun tonight, if he didn't have some other thoughts, he wouldn't believe it. In the end, after weighing the pros and cons, Gan Ning still decided to accept the olive branch thrown by Liu Xun.

Now that he has made a decision, Gan Ning is not reserved, and hurriedly got up and worshiped Liu Xun. "Taishou is so sincere to me, I'd rather dare not obey than see the lord."

At this time, Liu Xun, who succeeded in his treacherous scheme, was happy. Heaven, earth, I, Liu Xun, finally have a famous historical general by my side.

If Liu Xun can calm down and think about it carefully, he will understand that it is normal for Gan Ning to agree to defect to him. How difficult it is to be a general in this era, unless you have a deep background or a family background, so that you can get the favor of the princes, and this point Gan Ning can't touch at all, just look at the situation of Gan Ning in the previous life after defecting to Huang Zu. Now that he is courteous to him, and his straightforward character of wanting to save face and suffer crimes, he treats him so politely, it would be an accident if he couldn't recruit him. After all, Liu Xun himself is a Taishou, and he is definitely high to a water thief like Gan Ning.

Of course, if the other party is a clever strategist, it is a different matter. Because the strategist looks at your future prospects, and thinks about all aspects that people can't guess at all. If your prospects are not good, you are earnest, and it is useless to waste too many words. For example, Guo Jia, Jia Xu, these top strategists, which one does not depend on your prospects first to decide whether to follow you.

Guo Jia was in Yuan Shao's camp when he saw that Yuan Shao's prospects were not good. Otherwise, with Yuan Shao's power at that time, who could resist his solicitation. Not to mention Jia Xu, Li Wei obeyed his words and respected him very much, but he still couldn't keep him. It's not because Jia Xu sees through their future.

In a word, generals are easy to recruit, but strategists are even more difficult to recruit.

Excited, Liu Xun immediately stepped forward to help Gan Ning with both hands, and said with a smile: "Xingba, hurry up, I have Gan Ning like Gao Zu Fan Xuye." ”

Liu Xun threw another bowl of poisonous chicken soup to Gan Ning.

Gan Ning was very useful, and replied gratefully: "Inheriting the love of the lord, Ning is willing to drive for the lord from now on, and he will not regret his death." ”

"Okay, good, I have to help you today, and the world can be expected." Liu Xun said excitedly

Seeing that Liu Xun was happy, Gan Ning took this opportunity to solemnly bow again: "Lord, there is a group of brothers under Ning who are all born and died with a certain person, I can't bear to abandon them, and their martial arts loyalty is no problem, would you rather bring them to join in?" ”

Liu Xun praised with great satisfaction in his heart: "I don't forget my brother when I fly Huang Tengda, this Gan Ning is really a loyal and righteous person." ”

"No problem, but ......"

Liu Xun replied, and said earnestly: "Now Lujiang County is not what it used to be, the military discipline is strict, and Xingba must not defy the law!" ”

In fact, what Liu Xun means is that it is okay to bring people, but you must be cautious, and you must strictly manage the subordinates you brought.

Gan Ning is not a fool, so he naturally understood the meaning of Liu Xun's words, and immediately hugged his fists and said: "Please rest assured, these brothers listen to me, and Ning is willing to vouch for them with his life." ”

These people all came with him all the way from the Jinfan thief, and naturally obeyed his orders very much.

Besides, he joined Liu Xun Group this time to follow Liu Xun to make a career, and he will definitely not lose a big one because of a small one.

Hearing Gan Ning say this, Liu Xun was naturally happy to agree, after all, there are many people and great power, and the water thieves who follow Gan Ning have the potential to be sailors.

Liu Xun said with a smile: "Okay, since Xingba trusts me so much, I, Liu Xun, naturally can't let you down." From now on, you will be appointed lieutenant, and the 800 warriors you brought will still be under your command, and I will allow you to recruit 1,200 soldiers to make up 2,000 men. As for the officers in the army, it is up to you to accept their fate. I hope you can practice well and achieve great things with me in the future. ”

Gan Ning was immediately moved when he heard this, and hurriedly bowed down and said: "Thank you for the love of the lord, I would rather train an elite army for the lord to expand the territory of the lord." “

Liu Xun laughed and said:

"Good, good. If it's late today, I'll let Xingba go down to rest, and I can go to work tomorrow. ”

"Thank you to the lord, I would rather not disturb the lord's rest, so I will retire first"

"Well, go for it"

Watching the attendant lead Gan Ning away, Liu Xun was very excited, haha, it was finally done. I don't know if it's out of psychology, after a historical general, Liu Xun slept unusually peacefully and peacefully this night.

In this way, with the arrival of Gan Ning, Liu Xun, who had settled down, continued to strictly train the army on the one hand, and vigorously developed government affairs on the other hand. In this troubled era, Lujiang County has been very stable for such a long time, and Liu Xun naturally cannot miss such a good opportunity for development and growth

。。。。。。

Time flies, this day in a huge cottage, at this moment in the mountains do not know what is happening, tens of thousands of thieves one by one as if the dead parents are panicked. A handsome man dressed as a Confucian scholar rode a tall horse and broke into the cottage without fear.

Everyone naturally recognized that the war horse under this man's crotch was the beloved mount of their leader. When they looked up at this person's hands, they were all colorless.

I saw the handsome man on the horse throw away the head in his hand and shouted: "Cao Gong has an order, and those who dare to move are guilty of the same crime as Bao"

At this moment, Cao Cao is famous, and with the addition of a bloody head on the ground, this head is their leader Zheng Bao. The bandits in front of them were instantly suppressed by the momentum of the handsome man. Seeing that the thieves did not move, the handsome man continued:

"Don't worry or be afraid, I, Liu Ye, am here today to save you. Now that your leader is dead, and the surrounding princes are eyeing you, if you do not find a prince to be your backer, you will surely die without a place to bury in the future. ”

That's right, this person is Liu Ye, the First Army Division that Liu Xun has been waiting for. At this moment, as Liu Ye's words fell, a very burly man came out of the thieves, but this person's expression was diametrically opposed, only to see this person with a face full of humility, pleading bitterly: "Sir, now the leader is dead, and Mr. You are a famous man in Yangzhou, today our brothers are in trouble and please save us, we are willing to take your horse as a leader."
