Chapter 396 Good news?

Sun Quan's advance was rapid.

Near Jiangxia, he defeated Guan Yu's water army many times, forcibly controlled the Han River Basin, and formed a overwhelming momentum against Guan Yu.

Sun Quan was very satisfied with the result of the battle. He slapped the railing of the bow heavily, rejoicing that the battle went smoothly.

But as the commander-in-chief under his command, Lu Su didn't feel that the battle was going smoothly.

He defeated Guan Yu many times, and the whole army continued to advance, but there was no sign of annihilating a large number of Guan Yu's soldiers at all, and even Guan Yu's army could calmly lead the people back together when retreating.

Compared with Wu Jun, who had just ended the Battle of Hefei and was quite exhausted and confused, Guan Yu's army showed extremely strong fighting spirit, the whole army was dispatched in an orderly manner, and they did not follow Lu Su's aggressive general method at all.

Lu Su tried several times to use Guan Yu's pride to attract him to a decisive battle with him, and then asked Wu Jun to outflank him with the advantage of numbers, but Guan Yu didn't fall for it anyway.

He fights and retreats, and Wu Jun is likely to face the dilemma of Jiangling's fortified battle again.

"Your Majesty, Guan Yu is already on guard, please ask Your Majesty to be vigilant."

What Lu Su meant was to tell Sun Quan not to be too happy too early, so as not to lose his mind in a flash in the future.

But Sun Quan didn't hear what he meant, just nodded slightly:
"Guan Yu is a battle-hardened man, so it is normal to be prepared.

Hey, our army is gaining momentum now, tell Guan Yu that if he doesn't surrender, he will definitely take his head! "

Lu Su: ...

The psychological impact of the Battle of Hefei on Sun Quan was greater than imagined.

Sun Quan used to have good judgment, but now all he thinks about is to make up for Hefei's losses as soon as possible.

From Guan Yu's body.

Not all Wu generals are irrational, they can all feel that Guan Yu must be planning something.

Otherwise, this famous general known for his extreme force will definitely find an opportunity to fight Sun Quan's army decisively, and will never choose this kind of useless play of fighting and retreating.

Gan Ning said to Lu Su worriedly:
"I think the old thief Guan Yu has a big picture. This man is arrogant and his soldiers are not weak. I have lured the enemy several times before, but his troops are stronger than mine, but he refused to attack. Instead, he kept retreating. .

I thought about Gong Jin's attack on Jiangling and Guan Yu's death from the North Road. Could it be that this thief set up a scheme back then to make me fall for it? "

"Besides, we are attacking Jingzhou together with Duke Cao, so why take the lead in attacking Jiangling?
It's better to take advantage of Wei Jun's southward movement and wait for an opportunity to attack Xiangyang.

The benefits of attacking Xiangyang are self-evident, so please check it out. "

Of course Lu Su knew that there were many advantages to attacking Xiangyang now.

In name, Le Jin, the defender of Xiangyang, is General Wei. Attacking this place can meet Cao Wei's requirements. After breaking through Xiangyang, he can still occupy the important transportation points between the north and the south. The best thing is that he didn't turn against Liu Bei. After that, everyone can be friends happily. .

The attack on Jiangling was different. Sun Quan and Guan Yu had a head-to-head confrontation. No matter who died, both sides would have a huge knot in their hearts.

Although Gan Ning looks rough and short-tempered, his heart is really delicate.

Since the dispatch of troops, he has been obedient to Sun Quan on the surface, but he has been putting pressure on others including Lu Su, asking them to find a way to stop this crazy behavior.

But it seems that there is no good effect now...

After Sun Quan's continuous defeat of Guan Yu, he was already preparing to walk from Hanshui to Xiashui to launch a final blow to Jiangling guarded by Guan Yu.

Gan Ning wanted to say more, when a soldier under his command rushed over and whispered something in his ear, Gan Ning's face immediately changed drastically.

Lu Su hurriedly asked:
"what happened?"

Gan Ning looked at Lu Su suspiciously, and said intently:

"It seems that Cai Mao sent someone here!"

"Cai Mao sent someone here?!" Lu Su was taken aback.

Although Cai Mao and Sun Quan did not have the deep hatred that Huang Zu had, after all, the grievances had been accumulated for a long time and it was difficult to reconcile. It is really surprising that Cai Mao sent someone over at this juncture.

"I'm going to pass on the supreme! Bring the messenger up!"

Lu Su left in a hurry, Gan Ning winked at the pawn:

"what happened?"

The pawn said in a low voice: "Cai Mao sent his younger brother Cai Zhonglai to present a map, saying that Cao's army is at a disadvantage after a long battle, and they can't even attack Wancheng. Cai Mao is very disappointed.

He is willing to hand over Xiangyang Fancheng to welcome General Sun into the city, and to belong to the general with all the land of Jingzhou. "

Gan Ning was startled, then sneered and said:
"In that case, he must have told Cao Ren as well."

After all, Gan Ning had been with Liu Biao for a while, so he still knew Cai Mao's temperament very well.

Cai Mao has both ends of the head, very insidious, and extremely greedy for power.

Now that Cao Jun is still attacking Wancheng, it is his opportunity to make a move. He must have sent similar letters of loyalty to Cao Ren and Sun Quan. Le Jin Guan Yu must also have his letter of loyalty on his desk. See whoever offers the highest price, he will vote Under whose command.

"The dog thieves at both ends of the first mouse." Gan Ning cursed, just about to leave, but seemed to feel something suddenly, and stopped quickly.

wrong.

Cai Mao was the last to rebel against Cao Cao during the Battle of Chibi. If it weren't for Guan Ping, he might have followed Cao Cao all the way to the dark.

Now that the war has just started, and Le Jin's elite soldiers have not been mobilized yet, Cai Hao is already impatiently preparing to turn around - if he sends out an ordinary servant merchant, it's fine, after that, he can deny it if it's a big deal, and no one will get to the bottom of it.

But now he actually sent his brother Cai Zhong...

This is not something that can be dispatched by just finding a servant.

If Sun Quan fails later, Le Jin and Guan Yu will not let Cai Mao go, and will definitely deal with him severely.

not good!

Gan Ning quickly rushed to Sun Quan's big tent, but saw that Lu Su had already led a scribe with a flattering smile into the tent. Gan Ning quickly stepped forward, and several generals under Sun Quan's command rushed to him, shouting:
"Your Majesty sees a guest, please wait a moment, General."

Gan Ning was afraid that Sun Quan would be preconceived and believed Cai Zhong's nonsense, so he hurriedly said: "I have an urgent military situation and I need to see the Supreme Master, please excuse me for now."

Several generals knew Gan Ning's identity, and they were worried that there was indeed an urgent matter, so hesitation suddenly appeared on their faces.

They were just about to disperse, but they heard a snort, and saw a short and strong man in sackcloth walking slowly.

The man cast a mocking look at Gan Ning, couldn't help coughing a few times, and frowned, "What is the emergency situation? Can you tell me?"

That man was Ling Tong, Gan Ning's sworn enemy.

Ling Tong's father, Ling Cao, was killed by Gan Ning himself in the battle against Liu Biao. Later, Gan Ning defected to Sun Quan. Ling Tong tried to kill Gan Ning several times but was stopped by Sun Quan.

Although the two could still maintain normal business affairs, Gan Ning's bad temper made it impossible for him to have friends. Ling Tong didn't mind disgusting Gan Ning over trivial matters.

Seeing that it was Ling Tong, Gan Ning didn't bother to talk to him, just lowered his head and wanted to break into the tent.

Ling Tong directly drew out the long sword at his waist, pointed at Gan Ning and said:
"Back off, who dares to enter without the order of the supreme? Gan Ning, do you want to rebel?

Everyone is watching, this Gan Ning is lawless and has no respect or inferiority? "

Gan Ning's only friend in Jiangdong, Lu Meng, is still attacking Lingling. Everyone under Sun Quan's command sneered at Gan Ning, who is arrogant and vulgar. Ning just fell ill again and wanted to perform well in front of Sun Quan.

Gan Ning was angry and impatient, and said with hatred:
"Cai Mao sent someone to pretend to surrender. I found out about this matter. This matter is of great importance. If you stand in my way, what should you do if something serious happens?"

Ling Tong sneered and said, "Okay, I'll discuss this matter in front of the Supreme Master later, why wait so long."

Gan Ning was furious, and said with a grin:
"Good skill, then I want to see how you can stop me!"

Although Ling Tong knew that his martial arts were far inferior to Gan Ning's, he still showed no fear in the face of Gan Ning's provocation:

"Okay, I want to learn about General Gan's methods!"

He drew his sword and pointed it at Gan Ning, and Sun Quan's generals also stood beside Ling Tong, drawing their swords out of their sheaths and staring at Gan Ning vigilantly.

Facing countless swords alone, Gan Ning was filled with sadness.

He laughed angrily and sighed:

"I, Gan Ning, have known each other for more than a year, and I have always been loyal to the Supreme. The battle is imminent, why do such a thing?

Hey, don't the princes ever regard Gan Ning as a brother? "

Everyone looked at me and I looked at you, and they all felt the unspeakable anger and sadness in the heart of this fierce general.

But the more this is the case, the more people dare not approach at will.

Under the rage, who knows what this moody fierce will do.

Gan Ning threw the knife in his hand to the ground and sighed:

"Please tell the Supreme, just say that Cai Mao is absolutely untrustworthy, let the Supreme... think twice!"
