Chapter 1025 : Chapter Five Hundred and Ten: Zhuge Jin's Joy (2)
"General Su is indeed a good friend of Gan Sima. ()" Ma Kuang exclaimed after hearing this. He was completely relieved and received Gan Ning's promise, which is worth thousands of gold.
Jiangdong has completely lost hope.
Immediately, Ma Kuang said again: "Now that Xinye and Jiangxia are in a state of hostility, Gan Sima must not say goodbye to Huang Zu of Jiangxia. Let me go back and prepare the boat to welcome Gan Sima to Xinye."
"Thank you for your work." Hearing this, Gan Ning raised his fist again.[
This was also a worry for Gan Ning. He was not alone. He had 800 troops and could not leave at once. Since Ma Kuang was fully responsible, he was relieved.
Immediately, Ma Kuang and Gan Ning discussed the details again before saying goodbye and leaving.
"Xinye, six thousand soldiers, can finally show off their ambitions." In the hall, Gan Ning clenched his fists and was secretly excited.
Gan Ning's early experiences gave him a lot of cold looks and supercilious looks. Now that Lu Su has given him a chance, he will definitely seize it.
………………
On this day, Zhuge Jin, an important minister from the east of the Yangtze River, arrived at the ferry north of Xiling City by boat. This time, Zhuge Jin was regarded as an envoy.
Jiangxia and Jiangdong have always been in a state of hostility. In the past, even merchant ships would have been subject to strict inspections, let alone envoys.
However, since Liu Cong also relied on Jiangdong to stabilize Jingzhou, Huang Zu's attitude towards Jiangdong became one of sincerity and fear. He no longer made things difficult for Jiangdong's merchants.
Of course, envoys can also reach Jiangxia easily.
At this moment, inside the ferry, Zhuge Jin got off the boat, got on the carriage, and slowly headed towards Xiling City surrounded by his guards.
"After several days of boating, we finally arrived in Jiangxia. We will soon be able to meet the heroic hero of Yizhou."
Zhuge Jin said happily.
Soon, the carriage entered Xiling City. However, as an envoy, Zhuge Jin could not go to Su Fei immediately. Instead, he entered the city first and paid a visit to Huang Zu, the governor of Jiangxia.
Huang Zu had already received the news and went to the gate of the prefect's mansion to greet him personally.
"I have long admired Mr. Zhuge's name." Huang Zu greeted him with a smile on his face.
Huang Zu was in his fifties, with gray hair and frail health, but he seemed to be in good spirits.
"Prefect Huang is in charge of Jiangxia, and he is very powerful. I admire him even more." Zhuge Jin said with a smile.
After exchanging a few pleasantries in front of the door, Huang Zu invited Zhuge Jin to sit in the hall.
Because Zhuge Jin's mission was very sudden. Huang Zu himself was very afraid of Jiangdong Sun Ce. He was very uneasy. During the dinner, he made insinuations about Zhuge Jin's purpose.[
Of course, Zhuge Jin would not directly say that he came for Gan Ning. He would use the rhetoric he had already prepared to deal with Huang Zu. It was all about trivial matters, such as strengthening business cooperation between the two parties.
Huang Zu's doubts were slowly dispelled. At this moment, Zhuge Jin raised his fist and said, "Besides these trivial matters, Marquis Wu actually has one more thing to ask of Governor Huang."
"Speak directly." Huang Zu said nonchalantly.
"Prefect Huang also knows that in order to deal with Lu Su, the last time Wu Hou not only personally fought in Linhuai, but also sent General Zhou Yu to fight in Xiangyang. He suffered heavy losses. After that battle, Wu Hou was a little discouraged and planned to defend Jiangdong.
"
Zhuge Jin sighed.
How could that be possible? Huang Zu was horrified. Although he didn't like Sun Ce because he killed Sun Ce's father, the situation was very delicate now. Not only could Sun Ce not take revenge, but he wanted to help Jiangxia and Jingzhou resist Lu Su's attack.
For Huang Zu, Sun Ce is now a life-saving straw.
If Sun Ce planned to let it go and defend Jiangdong, wouldn't Jiangxia be wiped out by Lu Su?
But at any rate, Huang Zu had been a prefect for so many years, and he quickly calmed down slightly, raised his fist and said: "The ancients' words are cold and their teeth are cold, so I ask you to advise the Marquis of Wu."
"We thought the same thing. So we came up with an idea to recruit knights from all over the world and prepare dead soldiers to assassinate Lu Su. In this way, we planned to cheer up Wu Hou."
Zhuge Jin nodded and said.
"Dead soldiers?" Huang Zu was a little dismissive of this. In these troubled times, Lu Su was a prince, how could he be unprepared? Death was the worst way.
However, Huang Zu didn't want to hurt Zhuge Jin. Sun Ce's confidence couldn't be allowed to let Sun Ce just let it go.
Therefore, Huang Zuyan raised his fist insincerely and said: "Sir, you are really smart." Then he asked doubtfully: "What does this have to do with what you want to request?"
"Recently, Marquis Wu has been recruiting knights from all over the world. I heard that there is a heroic knight in the prefect's tent who is brave and good at killing. His name is Gan Ning. So I want to ask Prefect Huang to part with me."
Zhuge Jin showed his fox tail and said.
So that's it. Huang Zu suddenly realized that he had gone around so far for such a purpose.
But who was Gan Ning? Huang Zu was a little confused. Huang Zu despised Gan Ning, and even his impression was a little blurry. Not long after, he remembered that Su Fei had recommended Gan Ning to him several times.
However, Huang Zu didn't care much. Now, Huang Zu doesn't care either.
He said boldly: "Then Gan Ning is just a Sima in the army. Since Wu Hou is useful, let him follow Wu Hou."
"Thank you, Lord Prefect." Zhuge Jin was overjoyed, but he thanked him with a smile on his face.
Gan Ning finally belongs to Wu Hou.[
If what Su Fei said is true and the rumors are true, then this person must be brave enough to be worthy of all men, and he is really a fierce general. And Huang Zu didn't use such a powerful general, but fell into the hands of Jiangdong. He was really a fool.
.
Fortunately, Huang Zu was also a fool, otherwise how could they get Gan Ning?
