Xiaoguangong

Chapter 400 What a refreshing person
Gan Ning is now recognized as the chief fierce general under Sun Quan, but this is just a fierce general.

For things like commanding the army to fight, the person Sun Quan trusts the most is Zhuge Jin.

Although Zhugejin's fighting skills are obvious to all, Zhugejin is very loyal and will never do any errands to betray Sun Quan. This is enough for Sun Quan to trust him to dispatch all the soldiers and horses in his hand.

It is really not too high to ask for what kind of label it is.

Gan Ning’s disappearance before the war was enough to arouse everyone’s vigilance, but Cai Mao and Sima Fu started to advance to Xiangyang step by step, and everyone didn’t take it seriously—anyway, Gan Ning’s temper has always been like this, who knows Was he drunk there again, and when he woke up, he could scold him severely.

Sun Quan left Lu Su to guard the back road and search for Gan Ning. He personally led the army to the city of Xiangyang and sent people into the city to order Le Jin to surrender.

"The king of Wu has an army of [-], and extraordinary people can fight for the front. If the general conquers the city, he can still maintain his position as a marquis.

If you resist, I'm afraid it will be hard to deal with it. "

The envoy sent by Sun Quan triumphantly analyzed the current situation, hoping that Le Jin could understand a little bit and stop doing unnecessary struggle and resistance.

Le Jin was not angry either, he calmly listened to the messenger's threat, and sneered:

"Sun Quan really has this ability? Can I be surrounded by water?"

"That's right." The envoy smiled, "Even if the general asks the old thief Guan Yu to help, it's too late. The old thief can't protect himself now, and he can't even leave Jiangling. Even if he has three heads and six arms, how can he be an opponent of our army on the river?

I advise General Le to recognize the big things and not to struggle uselessly. "

Le Jin sneered and said:
"Please go back and ask King Wu, how does Xiangyang compare to Hefei?
But I heard that King Wu led an army of [-], and he attacked Hefei many times but failed.

Could it be that I, Le Jin, can't do what Zhang Wenyuan and Li Mancheng can do?
Does King Wu underestimate me, or underestimate me, a righteous man in Jingzhou? "

Hefei is already the hatred of Wu Jun, and it can even be said to be their most feared nightmare.

Le Jin was so arrogant even though he was surrounded, which made the envoy very angry.

"Okay, since General Le doesn't want to surrender, let's see Zhenzhang on the battlefield.

I hope the general will not regret it by then. "

Sun Quan was psychologically prepared for Le Jin's tenacious resistance.

People always don't shed tears when they don't see the coffin. If this is the case, then you don't have to be polite.

He cast his eyes on Cai Mao who was beside him, and said sincerely: "Then I will thank Mr. Cai."

Cai Mao laughed and said:

"Don't worry, King Wu, since this Le Jin rat wants to die, I will help him for King Wu."

"Although your majesty is watching the soldiers, you don't need Jiang Dongerlang to bother you. I will come as soon as I go, and I will destroy Xiangyang!"

Wu Jun's private army system allows the generals leading the army to easily control a large number of soldiers and horses. Everyone regards their own movements as life, but after Cai Hao surrendered, he was willing to disband his army, so that Wu Jun got a lot of supplements at once. Everyone They were all quite elated, and their perception of Cai Mao improved a little.

During this siege, many Wu generals were gearing up and expressed their desire to attack with Cai Mao, but Cai Mao waved his hand generously and said with a smile:

"Le Jin is good at fighting, and Ma Liang has been operating in Xiangyang for a long time. If you attack rashly, you may suffer a lot of damage. It's better to wait for the old man to lead the army in person, and have a good fight with that thief Le Jin.

If it seems that the person is me, if you want to come to Jingzhou to see the old man, you can sell the old man for a little bit. "

Cai Mao's initiative surprised everyone.

Everyone knows that this person has always been a double-headed person, and generally doesn't do anything related to people. This time he is so proactive. He must know that there are already problems in Xiangyang.

Now the Wu army is full of confidence, thinking that it is a great thing that we don't need to work hard, just wait to break through Xiangyang City, and then we can recruit a large number of Le Jin's soldiers and annex a large amount of land.

Thinking of this, everyone has a good impression of Cai Mao. Who doesn't like people who work hard for themselves?
However, the atmosphere has been enhanced here, and Cai Mao raised another condition:
"Le Jin's subordinates are all sharp fighters, and they are also guarding Xiangyang's fortified city, so it can't be broken overnight.

Since there is going to be a battle, I would like to ask you to give me more rewards to boost the morale of the whole army, so that my subordinates can successfully attack the city. "

Uh, after all, it's not about wanting money.

When Cai Mao and Sima Fu came together, some people of insight pointed out that these two people could never be so impartial.

Since he wants money, it's easy to say, this is acceptable to everyone, and there must be some needs, which can also relax everyone.

This kind of thing is easy to handle.

Sun Quan took the lead in stating that he could provide a lot of rewards to Cai Mao's soldiers, which happened to be an opportunity to buy people's hearts.

He ordered his close minister Teng Yin to go out in person, holding Sun Quan's gold medal to the supply ship, and allocated a large amount of grain and cloth to ship as rewards.

There were 2 people in Cai Mao's former army, and each person was rewarded with ten stones of grain and ten pieces of cloth, and those who ascended and sacrificed first had additional rewards. Although this is not very generous, it at least reflects Sun Quan's sincerity.

Cai Mao was very satisfied, with a sly look in his eyes, he repeatedly nodded in praise, and secretly invited Teng Yin, and said in a low voice:
"Chengsi, my family has a hundred acres of Susukida, which was previously occupied by Ma Liang.

If you don't give up with one step, how about giving it to your step after Xiangyang is broken? "

Teng Yin is Sun Quan's diehard loyalist, seeing Cai Mao blatantly bribed him, he couldn't help sneering in his heart.

However, he is also a person who understands the general situation, knowing that sometimes gifts are bought for peace of mind, and Cai Mao's willingness to give himself gifts shows that he has no dissent, which is a great thing.

With a smile on his face, he said in a low voice: "I have long wanted to make friends with Mr. Cai, but I regret that I never had the chance.

If Mr. Cai wants the little one to do anything, just tell him, don't be polite to the little one. "

Cai Hao said with a smile: "There is indeed a small matter that I want Chengsi to help. With so many soldiers under my command, this reward must be held in the palm of my hand to be at ease.

How about...hehe, can Chengsi give me ten big ships to place these rewards?If there are any left, I will never forget the benefits of Cheng Si. "

Teng Yin couldn't help sneering in his heart.

He thought to himself that Cai Mao was a high-ranking scholar after all, why would he still do such a lowly thing.

Soldiers who died in battle received pensions, and if all the rewards were in Sun Quan's hands, Sun Quan could save a lot of money if the casualties were not large.

But if it was in Cai Mao's hands, wouldn't he have the final say on how many people were killed or injured?
Even if the damage caused by the siege is not large, he can still report huge casualties, and then all the money will be Cai Mao's own.

Teng Yin is very knowledgeable, but it is precisely because of this that he is even more happy in his heart, and directly agreed to Cai Mao's request.

"No problem, I will give as much as Mr. Cai wants."

Seeing that Cai Mao hadn't left yet, he patted his forehead and said:

"Okay, I'll take Mr. Cai to load the ship!"

Be cautious, be very cautious.

As expected of Cai Mao, he is really a cautious person.

But just for this... Hmph, he is really shameless.

Teng Yin was Sun Quan's confidant and had full power to control everything. He took Cai Mao to count the rewarded goods and ships, and sent someone back to secretly report to Sun Quan.

Sun Quan was also relieved to hear that Cai Mao was so greedy - he was afraid that Cai Mao didn't ask for it, and if he did, all this would be easy to solve.

He quickly sent someone to tell Teng Yin that he must fulfill Cai Mao's request.

This little money is nothing, even if it is all given to Cai Mao, as long as Xiangyang can be broken, it is worthwhile.

This is exactly what Teng Yin thought. He boldly rewarded Cai Mao. Under the slightly mocking eyes of everyone in the Eastern Wu, the soldiers under Cai Mao's command boarded the boat in a very tasteless file. Carry grain, grass and cloth, and slowly transport them to their own boats.

Teng Yin looked at Cai Mao with a smile and said:
"The king of Wu respects General Cai very much. Our army is not short of money and food. How about it? This can express our sincerity?"

Cai Mao stood on the bow and nodded repeatedly, smiling:

"With such a reward from the King of Wu, my subordinate Erlang will definitely work hard to move forward. Please rest assured, King Wu."

Teng Yin nodded, and didn't bother to talk to a villain like Cai Mao.

Just when he was about to go back to find Sun Quan to return his life, Cai Mao sneaked over again and motioned for Teng Yin to bow his head.

Teng Yin said impatiently:
"What does General Cai want? Just say it."

Cai Mao laughed and said:

"Chengsi is a straightforward person, so I'll make it clear."

He stuck to Teng Yin's ear and whispered:

"I want to borrow Chengsi's head!"
