Chapter 990
Qushan.
Gan Ning and Mi Fang stood side by side, looking at the gradually forming Daying, their faces were calm.
Chunyu Qiong led an army of 30,000 from Xia Pi. After walking 300 miles for more than half a month, Gan Ning and Mi Fang were both impatient. They fought under Sun Ce and were familiar with a sentence that Sun Ce and others often mentioned: Soldiers are more important than speed. But Chunyu Qiong seemed to have never heard of this sentence. He was not speed, he was speedy. He marched twenty miles a day on average, only 60% of the prescribed itinerary.
Gan Ning came from Guangling and set out after Chunyu Qiong, but arrived first than Chunyu Qiong.
"It's so slow." Mi Fang shouted softly, turned to look at the rogue pot on the table next to her. The rogue pot showed that it took nearly two hours from the first team to the complete completion of the entire camp. Chunyu Qiong's subordinates. This also understands why Chunyu Qiong walked so slowly. He needed more time to set up camps and set up camps, and naturally there was less time to travel.
Gan Ning smiled and said, "They should have been scared by the general's raid."
Mi Fang smacked her lips. "Yes, although the general is not in the Xuzhou battlefield, his influence is everywhere, and he has invisibly bought us ten days. With these ten days, Chunyu Qiong will not only come 30,000 people, even if he comes 30,000 more people, he will have no choice but to do anything to us."
Gan Ning turned around and looked at Mi Fang. "Do you want to stick to the support?"
"If you don't stick to wait for help, can you still take the initiative to attack?" Mi Fang smiled and said, "That's 30,000 people. The two of us combined are less than 3,000. Even if we add the troops of our Mi family, it's less than 5,000. It's more than enough to defend, so it's too risky to attack."
"That's only 30,000 people, not 30,000 soldiers." Gan Ning looked at the camp in the distance and chuckled: "It's been two hours, and the formation is still so chaotic, which shows how much slack these people are. They must have thought we dare not attack, so they are so presumptuous. Since they exposed their flaws so obviously, how can I be worthy of them if I don't kick them?"
Mi Fang blinked her eyes and was moved for a moment. As Gan Ning said, Chunyu Qiong had a lot of troops, but she was not considered elite. Compared with Sun Ce's subordinates, these people were simply a group of refugees, not even bandits. It is indeed a good choice to launch a surprise attack while they were not yet stable in their foothold and slash their spirits. However, the assault is also dangerous. After all, there are 30,000 people on the other side. Once they are in chaos, they can even trample on people.
"How are you going to attack?"
"The soldiers are there, but not many. The general only used two hundred cavalry to ambush Wen Chou, and only more than ten cavalry during the assault. I think it would be enough to deal with a stupid guy like Chunyu Qiong."
Mi Fang nodded vigorously. "Okay, I'll help you."
Gan Ning shook his head. "No, you guard the manor well, and you must not attack unless you are foolproof. If I fall into it, you can't save me even if you go. If I don't fall into it, you don't need to attack. Prepare the cavalry, then break through the formation and kill the generals, take the key points, and then stop these chaotic soldiers. If so many laborers can stay in Qu County for work, our port expansion will be much faster."
Mi Fang laughed and pointed at Gan Ning. "Does the general like you? You are really a monarch and minister. Xingba. You found the master of your destiny, but saw me wrongly. I said that you should help you with your help, not to lead the cavalry to attack, but to send people to work hard."
Gan Ning was surprised. "Hard work?"
"Yes, Chunyu Qiong must be tired and hungry after rushing so far. There are no rich families within a hundred miles, except for my Mi Family. I will send someone to send some gifts and some wine and food. Chunyu Qiong will never refuse. When they get drunk, you will break into the camp again. Wouldn't it be more effective than if I lead the cavalry to help you attack? Xingba, what do you think?"
Gan Ning shook his head and laughed. He went to Qu County for a few days and enjoyed Mi Fang's entertainment every day. He knew that Mi's family was rich. Compared with Mi's family, he, the former Jinfan thief, was a poor man. Mi's family relied on the sea to eat, not only had all kinds of overseas rare and odors, but also made wine that people could not stop. Chunyu Qiong worked hard all the way and definitely had no resistance.
Of course, the Mi family said it lightly, but it was a considerable expense. Chunyu Qiong was a person who had seen the world, and the gifts were too light, so Chunyu Qiong would not take it seriously. There were so many generals under his command, and just wine and meat was an amazing number.
"Mi Zifang, I understand what you mean, just use money to faint him, right?"
"Yes, there are not many other people in my Mi family, they are rich." Mi Fang laughed and said, "The general said that things that can be solved with money are nothing. You, Gan Xingba, are General Fu Bo, who the general has high hopes for, and the governor of the navy. If you can exchange tens of millions of dollars for your safety, this business is still worth it."
Gan Ning felt a little embarrassed. Mi Fang's words have other profound meanings. Sun Ce said to him at the beginning that it is easy to be a sensible person, but it is difficult to be in a state of mind. I hope he can be more steady and not rely on his courage to fight and take risks. Mi family is now reminding him to pay attention to safety.
"Then it's hard for Zifang to worry about it."
The two of them watched for a while and returned to the manor at the foot of the mountain. Mi Fang immediately arranged a guest who was good at receiving guests, and asked him to visit Chunyu Qiong with generous gifts and a lot of wine and meat. Mi's family was a businessman, and most of the guests were businessmen, with versatile and versatile guests, which made Chunyu Qiong faint in just a few words.
As Mi Fang expected, Chunyu Qiong had a very hard journey.
First, he was worried about Sun Ce's cavalry raid. Previous news said that Sun Ce took all the cavalry away, but later he found that Sun Ce only took away a small part, and the main force of the personal guard cavalry had not left. When he heard this news, Chunyu Qiong was scared and sweated. Wen Chou, who had two thousand cavalry, was ambushed by Sun Ce, so he dared not be careless. The string was tense, and he didn't even dare to unplug his armor when he went to sleep, and was always ready to fight. It was not until the information confirmed that the main force of the personal guard cavalry had left the East China Sea and rushed to the Yanzhou battlefield that he breathed a sigh of relief.
The second is food and grass. Donghai is the largest county in Xuzhou, with thirteen cities and nearly 150,000 households, but the unevenness of the rich and poor is very serious. More than half of the counties are west of Tan County, and Qu County is lonely and located on the coast. The Huqiu, the closest to Qu County, is also a hundred miles away. This directly leads to a problem. He cannot collect enough food and grass and must carry it on his own, which also seriously affects his marching speed.
After working hard for more than half a month, he finally arrived in Qu County. The big stone in Chunyu Qiong's heart was put down half. When he saw the guests sent by Mi Fang, he did not doubt the sincerity of the Mi family. According to reliable information, Sun Ce only left three hundred cavalry for Mi Fang, and the others were the guests of the Mi family. For a powerful man, the Mi family's strength should not be underestimated, but in front of his 30,000 troops, as long as a normal-minded person knew that the strength was disparity, and there was only a dead end to confrontation. Whether it was surrender or a slowdown, Mi Fang gave him a gift.
Chunyu Qiong accepted it with a smile. If he hadn't known that the Mi family was rich, he would have been too lazy to do so. Now that his hard work has finally been rewarded, how could he refuse? He was just drunk. Since he left the Chen family manor, he had never drunk a good drink. For him, who is so kind to drink, this was the most difficult time in his life.
