Jingzhou, early November.

As the dry season approached, Lejin's scouts became more and more bold and frequently explored south.

And it was only at this time that the defenders of Dangyang discovered that their general still had a rather good archery skill.

In the past, the scouts who faced the prying basically took advantage of the city defense to disperse the scouts and end it.

But their gray-haired General Huang is in good spirits, and he can fight ten catties of rice and meat, and open a strong bow on horseback.

Every few days, he led his troops out of the city to sweep around, and if the Lejin scouts did not escape in time, they could often only reap the fate of being pierced through the heart by an arrow.

So although the scouts are more frequent, the surroundings of Dangyang City are very calm.

For the people of Dangyang, life hasn't changed much, except for the nightmare army crossing the border a few months ago.

The only change is that the price of rice cloth and other things has dropped a bit, and the new General Huang speaks very kindly.

The scouts did not dare to invade, causing the guards to be a little lazy, and the two were standing together and chatting:

"Did you hear that? It is said that General Zhang was punished to do hard labor! ”

Another soldier's eyebrows danced:

"Your news is too early, it is said that General Zhang has been deprived of military power! The lord cut off his robe with him! ”

"Oh? Before the brother was transferred to General Huang's command, it was ......"

"It was under that flying before!"

"I see."

The broken mouths of the two soldiers could not affect Zhang Fei, who was pushing the cart, sweating like rain.

Of course, he was not punished with hard labor, and he did not cut off his robe with his brother.

After the light curtain ended, Guan Yu, Wei Yan, Zhao Yun and others returned to their respective stations on the same day.

Zhang Fei went to Liu Bei to allocate a batch because he was not frustrated because there was not enough food and grass.

The allocation of grain and grass was very smooth, but after loading the car, Liu Bei told Zhang Fei that there were not enough horses, and there was a cart of grain and grass that Zhang Fei needed to push back to Lin Frustration.

Push it, push it, and go to the public security in frustration, but it's just two hundred miles away.

Zhang Fei pushed this wheelbarrow, which is said to be the latest made by the military advisor, and the food was full, and he embarked on the way home.

On the city wall of Gong'an County in the rear, Kong Ming climbed high and looked.

Methodical record with a booklet in hand.

"It seems that this wooden cow still needs to be improved, and Yide is pushing it quite hard."

"It's also unstable when the goods are piled high, maybe we should add a bracket?"

Liu Bei's face was still stinky on the side, but he was still a little distressed when he looked at Zhang Fei.

"Since the lord is reluctant, he can simply send Yide two more horses."

Kong Ming said with a smile.

"Yide's mouth ......" Liu Bei shook his head, simply didn't look at it, and went down the city wall with Kong Ming.

Walking on the streets of Gong'an County together, looking at the vendors along the street, the people are much better than a year ago, at least many of them can eat well, Liu Bei is also quite pleased.

Although Zhang Fei returned to Linfang, he threw Liu Bei into trouble.

Returning to the county government with Kong Ming, Liu Bei looked at the man in front of him with a headache.

With a childish face, a bronze complexion, and coarse calluses on his hands, he is used to begging for life on the water at first glance.

"Lord!" This man should be worshipped.

Liu Bei hurriedly waved his hand: "I'm not your lord." ”

This is the trouble that Zhang Fei left behind.

Kong Ming looked at it with a smile on the side, and asked at this time:

"Gan Zhuo, you still don't want to go back to Jiangdong?"

The boy named Gan Gui held his head high:

"I want to follow Xuande Gong back to my hometown!"

"Isn't your hometown in Koto? You have said that you are the son of Gan Xingba, and Gan Xingba is a fierce general in Jiangdong. ”

Gan Gui's head shook quickly:

"The little old man told me that I should remember that I am from Linjiang in life, and even if I die, my soul will first return to Linjiang along the river."

Kong Ming patiently persuaded:

"Xuande Gong is Liu Jingzhou, not Liu Yizhou, so he can't take him back to his hometown."

The young man was unconvinced: "You lied to me again, that General Zhang told me that Liu Jingzhou will become Liu Yizhou sooner or later!" ”

The last bit of guilt in Liu Bei's heart for Zhang Fei also disappeared.

Pointing to the floor under the foyer, Liu Bei simply sat on the ground:

"Sweet ...... I remember that Yide said that you said that you ran away secretly? ”

The boy nodded with his head held high, recalling:

"Zhou Dudu died of illness...... The old man cried that night and drank for several days. ”

"The old man said that he could only rely on Zhou Dudu to return to his hometown in Jiangdong, and now that Zhou Dudu is gone, the old man and I will become lonely ghosts after we die."

"I'm not convinced, the old man told me before about the river when he was young, then I can do it...... Then he was arrested by General Zhang. ”

In the end, the man looked very discouraged.

Liu Bei nodded: "So Xianhe said that he was from Liu Yizhou, but you didn't stop." ”

The contradiction between Gan Ning and Liu Zhang, Liu Bei heard Jian Yong once talk about.

In the early days, when there was a conflict between Jingyi and Erzhou, Gan Ning and Shen Mi Loufa and others were raised against Liu Zhang, and were later defeated by Zhao Wei.

It's just that Jian Yong never thought that he almost died because of this old thing.

"Then why didn't Gan Xingba give Liu Zhang a soft drink?" Liu Bei proposed:

"Zhao Wei is no longer there... Gan Xingba went to give Liu Zhang a soft face, and he must still be able to go back to be the county leader. ”

Gan Gui's eyes widened, and then he shook his head and shouted:

"The old man disobeyed Liu Yizhou when he was young, let him do this, and he would definitely rather be a lonely ghost and a wild ghost."

Liu Bei stared at Gan Zhuo, with various thoughts spinning in his head, hesitating.

"My lord, I will also train the water master! I can go and help General Guan! Gan Zhuo's chest thumped.

Yide has too much to say...... Liu Bei felt that he was shaken by three points, and the second brother had said before that the water master was not practicing smoothly.

What I got from Lei Xu was not so much a water army as a water thief department.

Mi Zhu, the method of Jiangdong's sailor practice, has already sent someone to inquire, but there is no result for the time being.

"Lord, I can still call all the old man's eight hundred relatives over!" Gan Gui is full of confidence:

"As long as you can take us back to our hometown, you will be our lord!"

Liu Bei held Gan Gui's hands tightly:

"With the help of Gan Gui today, it is still better than an army of 100,000!"

Gan Gui also smiled: Old man, you wait, the lord I found will win your lord, wait for me to take you back to your hometown!

Kong Ming had already quietly left, and he already knew about the follow-up development.

The turmoil caused by Zhou Yu's death is destined to have far-reaching consequences, and Gan Ning's disambition is only one corner of it.

Kong Ming recalled that when he intersected with Lu Su before, he inadvertently mentioned that Lu Meng and Gan Ning were both short-tempered and quite incompatible.

Gan Ning was bent on attacking Yizhou, and had the same ideas as Zhou Yu, so he was reused, so he was able to confront Sun Quan's confidant Lü Meng.

But now that Zhou Yu is dead, Gan Ning has become a rootless duckweed, and Gan Ning should see these Gan Ning himself more clearly.

Now that Gan Gui has unexpectedly voted for the lord, even if Gan Ning knows, he will only acquiesce, but I don't know what happened to Gan Gui in the original annals?

Shaking his head to shake off these thoughts, Kong Ming smelled the smell of medicinal herbs as soon as he entered the small courtyard next to him.

With a big smile on his face, Kong Ming shouted:

"Doctor Zhang, how is the herb powder that was agreed upon before?"
