This day's sailing on the river made Liu Cong extremely excited, because this experience was something he had never experienced before - the cargo ship was speeding on the vast river under the guidance of the boatman, and the green mountains on both sides of the bank were rushing back like mountains.

, the river wind whistled in his ears, and if Wei Yan and others were not talking beside him, Liu Congjian mistakenly thought that he was cruising in the sky.

At this time, he saw the mouth of the Xiangjiang River, with reeds growing on both sides of the Xiangjiang River, and trees covering the distant mountains. Wei Yan became a little nervous and said to Liu Cong, "Young Master Liu, have you heard of the story of the Jinfan Thief?"

Liu Cong agreed: "I know. This Jinfan thief is very famous. I heard that Huang Zu, the governor of Jiangxia, didn't think highly of these thieves at first, but now he has a bit of a headache - this Jinfan thief is so elusive that he troubles the officials.

Neither the public nor the common people dare to transport goods on the river. Is that what happened?"

"Yes, do you know who the leader of the Jinfan thieves is?"

"You know, Gan Ning, right?"

"Yes. Do you know this Gan Ning?"

"Haha. General Wei is really good at joking. How can I get to know Gan Ning? I stay in Jingzhou City all day long and don't go out. It's inconvenient to get to know Gan Ning in the middle of the river. Don't you think so?"

"Yes. But I think that Gan Ning is really a good general and is definitely not a common man."

"How to see it?"

"If you think about it, Gan Ning was originally just a county magistrate in Ba County. Later, he was dissatisfied with the status quo and led dozens of people along the river to work as thieves. Over the past ten years, he has become more and more popular, and his influence has gradually spread to both sides of the Yangtze River. In fact, the thieves are

Thousands of people, said to be tens of thousands. The government officials in various places along the river have been suppressing the army for many years without success. Don't you think he is a good general? If such a general is used by the country, it will be a blessing to the country. "

"Yes. It's true that bandits have their own ways. I didn't expect that Gan Ning could make a career on both sides of the Yangtze River."

"His career is not big, but I really admire his way of using troops. Alas--it shouldn't be said that he is using troops, but using thieves. Alas--it's actually the same. The principles of using troops and thieves are the same, but Gan Ning used them skillfully.

, so I admire you."

"General Wei, let me tell you, what is the ingenuity of Gan Ning's use of troops?"

"It is difficult to say this question at once. The main reason is that he scattered all the thieves along the river in the caves in the mountains and forests on both sides of the river. They lived there and enjoyed themselves when nothing happened. Sentinels were sent along the river to conduct reconnaissance and found that there were

When the cargo ships set sail, they exchanged information and Gan Ning and others made the decision on how to act. This is how they make a living."

Liu Cong laughed and said: "I asked you what are the characteristics of their tactics, not how they make a living. Hahaha, why did General Wei talk about their way of making a living? Bandits make a living by killing people and stealing goods.

This needs no introduction.”

Wei Yan couldn't help but laugh after hearing this. He lowered his head and thought for a moment and said: "They have been dealing with officers and soldiers from all over the country for more than ten years. Not only have they not been eliminated by the officers and soldiers, but they have become stronger and stronger. This shows that they have their own set of superhuman tactics.

Otherwise, we wouldn’t have survived until now.”

"Then what are the characteristics of their tactics?"

"To sum it up briefly, he would run away when the officers and soldiers came, harass them when they settled down, attack when the officers and soldiers were tired, and pursue them when they fled. That's it! So for more than ten years, officers and soldiers from all over the country mentioned Gan Ning.

I have a headache and no longer dare to suppress him; some officials even secretly befriended him in order to prevent him from harassing their jurisdiction."

Liu Cong's eyes lit up after hearing this, and he said to himself: "Oh my God, this is really a wonderful tactic, it is a successful example of the 'avoiding the truth and attacking the fictitious' tactic.

Hey - by the way, the strength of the officers and soldiers when they first came over was like a clenched fist. Whoever they hit would be extremely painful. But Gan Ning and the others avoided the clenched fist from the front and ducked to the side.

If you attack the weak points of the enemy's strength from the side, you can easily achieve some victory.

In this way, the strength of the officers and soldiers is consumed from the side bit by bit, and in the end, the officers and soldiers will definitely run away. If you pursue them while they are running away, you can win a complete victory."

After Liu Cong thought about it, he looked at the scene of water and sky in front of him and thought: "When Cao Cao comes with his troops in four years, if I can take control of Jingzhou's army, I will use this tactic to deal with Cao Cao. With Jingzhou's strength

With a territory of thousands of miles and a population of millions, if you don't believe it, just delay and boast that you can't defeat Cao Cao. Humph! Needless to say, he brought an army of one hundred thousand or two hundred thousand, even if he brought one million, Jingzhou would have a place to bury them."

Thinking of this, Liu Cong became extremely excited. He stood up straight and waved his arms, shouting loudly: "Haha——, ha——, 'The great river goes eastward, and the waves are exhausted. The romantic figures of the ages. To the west of the fortress, humanity is like the Three Kingdoms."

Zhou Lang's Red Cliff, rocks pierced through the sky, stormy waves crashed on the shore, rolled up thousands of piles of snow, the country was picturesque, how many heroes were there at that time??????'"

Liu Cong was so excited that he suddenly burst into pride. Looking around, he saw the surging river and the towering mountains. The wet river wind blew in his face, and the corners of his clothes and robes blew with a roar. The pride in his chest became more and more inflated.

.

Liu Cong looked at Wei Yan and the Jingzhou soldiers beside him, and his thoughts immediately returned to reality: "Damn it. I just recited Su Dongpo's poem loudly about the Three Kingdoms Zhou Lang Chibi. Didn't I just go back to the Three Kingdoms? Isn't this just

Be around!

In later generations, when I talk about the Three Kingdoms, who knows why, I am filled with excitement. I always think that if I were born in such a passionate time, I would have to make a damn career.

!Hahaha, this is not, it’s really coming, it’s really coming to the Three Kingdoms period.

When I was studying at that time, when I read that Wei Yan was killed by Ma Dai's sword, I often closed my eyes and sighed, complaining about Wei Yan's fate. I thought that if I led an army in the Northern Expedition, I would definitely use Wei Yan's strategy and order him to lead five thousand troops.

He left Ziwu Valley to sneak attack Chang'an, and defeated Guanzhong in one battle. Then he united with heroes from all walks of life to break out of Tongguan, wipe out Cao Wei, and revive the Han Dynasty.

No, Wei Yan is right in front of me. Needless to say what happens next, after my father reuses me, I will definitely reuse Wei Yan, rewrite history, and rectify Wei Yan's name."

When Liu Cong thought of this, he thought of the great cause again, and murmured in his heart: "It's not just to rectify Wei Yan's name! Since I have decided not to let down this hot-blooded era, I must complete the historical task of annihilating the Cao Wei Kuangfu Han Dynasty, so that future generations can

When scholars read the history of the Three Kingdoms again, they will no longer sigh with regret."

Thinking of this, another burst of pride arose from the soles of his feet, and surged to the top of his head instantly. The impulsive Liu Cong's temples jumped. Liu Cong couldn't restrain his pride for a moment, straightened up, waved his arms, and shouted towards both sides of the river: "

Ah——, the land of Jingzhou, who is in charge of sinking and sinking! I am coming, I am coming. I am in charge of sinking and floating! I tell him to sink, he will sink, I tell him to float, he will float! Hahahaha! Hahahaha!"

Liu Cong's gaffe made Wei Yan stare at him blankly, not knowing why he suddenly became stupid.

But Liu Cong saw Wei Yan's doubtful eyes and thought to himself: "Why do I suddenly doubt everything? Is this guy Wei Yan? Like! As the book said, his face is dark, with red underside, and his eyes are like awls.

Looking at the person, although he is not very tall, he is full of strength and is as strong as an iron pillar."

At this time, the sun was shining high, and the surface of the river was brilliant. The surging waves of the river were flashing with dazzling reflections, which made Liu Cong unable to open his eyes.

Liu Cong was still puzzled: "Why am I not so sure that this is the Jian'an period? Well, this guy in front of me is Wei Yan? And these soldiers who are driving the boats? Let me try it. Haha."

After thinking about it, Liu Cong bent down and leaned out of the side of the ship. He held a handful of river water in both hands, turned around and poured it towards Wei Yan's back.

At this time, Wei Yan was lowering his head and bending forward to look at something. He felt a chill on the back of his neck. When he hurriedly looked back, he saw Liu Cong standing behind him, looking at him in confusion. His hands were hanging down.

Still dripping water.

Wei Yan thought he had done something wrong, so he hurriedly stood up, saluted and clasped his fists, and asked, "What are your orders, Mr. Liu?"

Liu Cong couldn't help laughing when he saw it, but he held it back, and quickly changed his face to a gentle one and said: "I saw that General Wei's head was sweating and his neck was wet, so I wanted to give General Wei a handful of river water.

Wash it, I don’t want to accidentally spill it on my neck, I’m sorry.”

Wei Yan was moved and said: "Thank you Mr. Liu for your kindness." As he said this, he felt comforted in his heart and secretly praised: "You are truly a benevolent and righteous Lord!"

After Liu Cong was excited enough and sat on the deck again, Wei Yan looked at him cautiously and said: "Master Liu, pay attention, this is the place where the Jinfan thief hangs out. If the Jinfan thief really comes out, don't be nervous.

, I can handle it myself."

Just as he was saying this, the boatman shouted in panic: "General, look quickly, there are two brocade sails on the water in front of you, brocade sails -!"

When Wei Yan turned around to look, he saw that two ships with brocade sails had sailed out of the reeds on the riverside and were heading towards the bow of his ship.

Under the setting sun, yellow Sichuan brocade hung on the two sails, like two torches, shining brightly on the river waves. Wei Yan stood up and muttered: "It's true that 'thieves are not to be mentioned'. Just mentioned the brocade thief, they

It's coming out. Don't panic, everyone, just follow my instructions."
