The young man slowly turned his head and looked at Gan Ning with a smile on his face, but it was Zhuge Liang, Liu Bei's chief think tank. Zhuge Liang smiled and said to Gan Ning: "General Gan! Don't be anxious! Although your army is powerful,
, but the number is not as good as the Wu army outside the city. If the general catches up rashly, I am afraid that he will be surrounded by the Wu army! By then, I will be unable to rescue the general!"
"Huh! Who wants you to save me?" Gan Ning snorted, but his voice became quieter and quieter. Apparently he had figured out what Zhuge Liang meant. After snorting a few times, Gan Ning put the Jiaya knife in his hand behind him.
As soon as he threw it away, he had his own soldiers to help him. Immediately, Gan Ning strode to Zhuge Liang's side, glanced at Zhuge Liang, and said with a strange face: "Speaking of which, I still don't understand what you are doing.
What the hell are you planning! Why do you want to stay in Guangling? Aren't you afraid that I will kill you with a knife?" As he spoke, Gan Ning's face turned cold, and a murderous aura burst out from Gan Ning's body!
"Haha!" Zhuge Liang seemed to have no feeling for Gan Ning, who was full of murderous intent. He chuckled, stared at the Wu army retreating into the military camp outside the city, and said with a smile: "Now my lord and the King of Qin have formed an alliance, haven't they?
?Then what's the difference between me staying in the general's army and staying in my lord's army? Anyway, the purpose of both our armies is the same, to repel the various princes who invaded Xuzhou, isn't it?"
"Hmph!" When Zhuge Liang said this, Gan Ning didn't know how to respond. He could only snort and stop asking any more questions. However, after staring at Zhuge Liang for a long time, Gan Ning hummed again: "
You pretty boy, you have good courage, but it's a pity that you are a bit unworthy of your talents by staying with Liu Bei! How about you? Why don't you just serve my lord! How about I be your recommender?"
Regarding Gan Ning's invitation, Zhuge Liang shook his head and said, "Thank you General Gan for your kindness. It's just that the Marquis of Chu and me have the kindness of knowing each other. How can I abandon them? Besides, I have heard for a long time that there are many talented people in King Qin's tent. I am like this."
You mediocrity, it’s better not to embarrass yourself in front of King Qin!”
Although Zhuge Liang said it politely, Gan Ning knew that the intelligence of the pretty boy in front of him was definitely not inferior to those of the counselors around his lord! However, it was obvious that the other party refused, so Gan Ning could not persuade him shamelessly and shrugged.
He shrugged and stopped worrying about this, and then said: "Forget it! Boy! When will Sun Wu's troops retreat?"
"Retreat?" Zhuge Liang shook his head again and said, "It's impossible in a short time! Since Sun Jian died at Hangu Pass at the hands of General Dian Wei of your army, the morale of Sun Wu's army can be said to have been greatly affected.
Big impact! This attack on Xuzhou was, on the one hand, to expand its power, and on the other hand, to revitalize the morale of Sun Wu’s army! Now, because of General Gan, Sun Wu’s army not only failed to capture Guangling City, but even failed to capture it.
He failed to win the battle. If he just retreated, I'm afraid Sun Wu would have no hope of making a comeback in the future! Therefore, Sun Wu must continue to fight this battle, even if he loses without a single soldier left.
I will keep fighting!"
"Tsk!" Gan Ning curled his lips. He didn't quite understand what Zhuge Liang said, but at least the last sentence made it clear, that is, Sun Wu's army outside the city will not retreat! But on this point Gan Ning
It didn't matter, Luo Yang sent an order to him to come to Guangling before, the purpose was to continue the melee between the Guandong princes! Sun Wu refused to retreat, so that's even better, just in line with Gan Ning's wishes! Thinking of this, Gan Ning subconsciously
A smile appeared.
"Haha!" Zhuge Liang suddenly looked away from outside the city and turned to Gan Ning's face. Looking at the smile on Gan Ning's face, Zhuge Liang showed a mysterious smile and said: "General Gan,
Judging from your appearance, you don’t seem to be worried about this?”
"Uh!" When Zhuge Liang said this, Gan Ning subconsciously reached out to cover his mouth and looked at Zhuge Liang with some embarrassment. Although his mission was very clear, the secret here could be known to Zhuge Liang! Immediately
Gan Ning just covered his mouth and said with a smile: "How could it be possible? Haha! Did you see it wrong?"
Zhuge Liang did not say anything about Gan Ning's cover-up, but slowly turned around and said: "I think it is best for General Gan to ask the King of Qin for more troops, or else, simply give up Guangling! With General Gan's men
These soldiers and horses are still insufficient to block Sun Wu's full attack!"
Hearing Zhuge Liang's suggestion, Gan Ning was a little unconvinced, and immediately snorted: "Who said that! Huh! With just such a few enemies, I, Gan Ning, can't deal with it? Boy, just wait and see! I'll make a decision tomorrow.
Cut Taishi Ci off his horse! I want to see if without Taishi Ci, who else in Sun Wu's army can withstand the Jiaya Sword in my hand!" After saying that, Gan Ning threw his hands away and huffed.
left.
Regarding Gan Ning's words, Zhuge Liang didn't say much. After watching Gan Ning leave, a light flashed in his eyes, and then he turned to look outside the city, but at this moment his expression slowly changed.
Gotta get serious.
In the military camp outside the city, Taishi Ci and Zhou Yu, who had just retreated, were also discussing the next arrangements in the tent. Taishi Ci was obviously a little dissatisfied with the fact that Zhou Yu summoned him back with gold, and hummed: "Gong Jin
! It’s still early in the morning, why did you call me back? Give me more time, I will definitely defeat that boy Gan Ning!"
Zhou Yu had a wry smile on his face and said: "Ziyi, so what if you can defeat Gan Ning? Don't forget that there are so many Western Qin soldiers behind Gan Ning, and they won't just watch you.
Gan Ning was captured!"
When Zhou Yu said this, Taishi Ci was speechless. In fact, he was not sure that he would be able to defeat Gan Ning. The two were equally powerful. Maybe he would be defeated by Gan Ning accidentally! Of course!
, Taishi Ci would not say these words. Even this thought just turned around in his mind and was immediately cleared out of his head. Taishi Ci snorted and sat in Mazha with a bleak look on his face.
He didn't say anything. During this period, Taishi Ci was too frustrated. He was in a dilemma, and Taishi Ci couldn't make a choice.
Zhou Yu shook his head. How could Zhou Yu not understand what Tai Shici was thinking, but he had no good solution at the moment. He immediately walked to the map in the tent and stared at the location of Xuzhou depicted on the map. According to
With the current process, I'm afraid Guan Yu's army that retreated from Guangling has arrived at Pengcheng! With the addition of Guan Yu's force, it may not be so easy for Cao Cao to capture Pengcheng! In this way, the alliance between Cao Cao and Sun Ce
It can be said that it was completely hindered. Zhou Yu really had to admire the person who set up this plan for Luo Yang. Such a plan made the Guandong princes no longer able to avoid the conflicts between them. They were all trapped in Xuzhou and unable to continue to develop.
My own strength!
However, Zhou Yu has not given up yet. Although this conspiracy is difficult to crack, it does not mean that it is really unbreakable. Zhou Yu firmly believes that there must be a loophole in this strategy! Another point is that based on Zhou Yu’s understanding of Zhuge Liang, there is absolutely no
Will he be willing to let Liu Bei become the pawn of the Western Qin Dynasty to consume the princes of Guandong? This guy must have some plan if he stays in Guangling! What Zhou Yu has to do is to crack Zhuge Liang's plan as soon as possible!
For a time, the atmosphere in the entire tent was very dull. Taishi Ci, who was still sulking at the beginning, couldn't bear it anymore. After a moment of silence, Taishi Ci saw Zhou Yu still standing in front of the map thinking about something. Taishi Ci couldn't bear it.
He still hummed: "Damn Gan Ning! If it weren't for the powerful Western Qin troops under his command, I would have killed this kid long ago! Hum!"
Taishi Ci was unconvinced, but on the other hand, Zhou Yu did not listen to Taishi Ci's words at all, but studied the map on his own. Vaguely, Zhou Yu seemed to have caught some clues, but on the map of Xuzhou
It seemed that Zhou Yu still couldn't come up with an effective strategy, which made the usually elegant Zhou Yu go a little crazy.
Zhou Yu ignored him, and Tai Shi Ci had a somewhat embarrassed look on his face, and turned to hum: "Forget it! Gong Jin! Just think about it here! I'll go find Zishan to discuss! Damn it! That brat Gan Ning
His sword skills are really airtight! I have to think of some way to break his turtle shell! Yeah! By the way! I'll try tomorrow to see if I can tempt this kid to take the initiative!" Tai Shi Ci said
He stood up, just said hello to Zhou Yu, and walked out talking to himself.
Originally, when Taishi Ci greeted Zhou Yu, Zhou Yu just replied subconsciously, but the few words Taishi Ci muttered before leaving were like a bolt from the blue, which stunned Zhou Yu. Zhou Yu's eyes suddenly
The boss was so stunned that he turned to look at Taishi Ci, rushed forward, grabbed Taishi Ci's arm, and asked: "Ziyi! What did you just say? Say it again?"
"Uh!" Taishi Ci was startled by Zhou Yu's sudden action. He looked at Zhou Yu with surprise, but he didn't understand what Zhou Yu meant. He could only repeat what he just said. In the end, his face was full of surprise.
He asked in confusion: "Gong Jin! What's wrong with you?"
Zhou Yu didn't bother to answer Tai Shici's question. Instead, he turned around and ran quickly to the map. He stretched out his hand and scratched on the map, and kept mumbling something. Look at Zhou Yu
His appearance showed a rare look of madness. Looking at Tai Shi Ci, he couldn't help but be startled. He was still secretly worried that this boy Zhou Yu might have been possessed by some evil spirit, right?
At this time, Zhou Yu suddenly smiled up to the sky, and shouted while laughing: "Hahahaha! I understand! I understand! Zhuge Liang, Zhuge Liang! You are really yours! You can figure out this move!"
