Ji Han Da Sima

Chapter 56 Chasing away
Xiangyang Shuimen is shrouded in darkness and the surroundings are lit by torches.The ship is already ready to go, and Huo Jun is about to board the ship at the dock.

Liu Bei took Huo Jun's hand and said, "Zhongmiao, why are you in such a hurry? The army will go out in a few days. Why not meet Gan Xingba with Zhongmiao at that time, treat him favorably, and march into the mansion."

Huo Jun shook his head and said: "Gan Xingba was an extraordinary man with a high spirit. He lived in Jingzhou for several years, defeated enemies and won great achievements. He wanted to show his talent. Unexpectedly, Huang Zu was narrow-minded and wiped out his achievements. Liu Jingzhou Also, those who work day and night will not be promoted."

"Fortunately, Ming Gong valued him and promoted him to Zhonglang General, which may alleviate Xingba's resentment. However, Jun Jun received a letter from his brother, saying that Huang Zu secretly lured Gan Ning with money and took it for his own use. This is the right move. The rejuvenating tyrants are rebellious, but the rejuvenating tyrants can endure it."

Huo Jun sighed and said: "If Jin Jun does not go to Jiangxia to appease Xingba, I am afraid that Xingba will be angry and lead his troops to Jiangdong. If Xingba is lost, our army will lose a dragon. How can we fight on the water?" Wrestling with Jiang Zuo."

Water battles are like battles in the arena. Personal bravery is much more important than on land. Even if he can command the water army to fight, but lacks a ten thousand enemy like Gan Ning, his combat effectiveness will be reduced by at least [-] to [-]%.

If used well, a warrior like Gan Ning can change the situation on the battlefield.For example, when he was commanding the navy, Gan Ning attacked with a light boat, sailed down the rapids, killed Ling Cao, and defeated the vanguard of the Jiangdong navy.Without Gan Ning's heroic victory, he would not have dared to lead his troops to fight against Xu Kun.

Liu Bei hesitated a little and asked: "Didn't Zhongmiao send the letter to Xingba and say that Bei will show him as Zhonglang General? Isn't this useless?"

Huo Jun gave a wry smile and said: "If Ming Gong has not gone to Jiangdong, what is the foundation? In the past, it may be able to comfort Xingba, but if it touches the adverse scale of Xingba, it may be useless. And Sun Quan leads the six counties of Jiangdong. It is not impossible for him to seek refuge with Sun Quan when he has a great foundation and is desperate for hegemony."

Huo Jun's words were heartbreaking. Liu Bei named Gan Ning as the Zhonglang General. He seemed to have a high official position, but Liu Bei had no foundation and not many soldiers.Huo Jun was worried that Gan Ning was high-spirited and frustrated, so he despised Liu Bei and defected to Sun Quan.

Liu Bei was in a low mood and said, "I only regret that Bei has no foundation, and Zhong Miao has difficulty recruiting talented people for me."

Huo Jun held Liu Bei's arm and said: "How can you be so depressed when you are in such a state of despair? The future of Duke Ming seems like it is now. Although the night is falling, there will be daylight. The troops are sent to the east of the Yangtze River, which is the day of Duke Ming's grand plan."

Liu Bei cheered up and shouted: "Zilong!"

"Lord!" Zhao Yun stepped forward with his sword in hand and responded.

"Zhongmiao, although Bei doesn't know what Director Gan Xingba is good at, he has great faith in Zhongmiao. Although Jinbei has no foundation, he is fortunate to be given an official position by others. I originally awarded Xingba the title of Zhonglang General, and now he is awarded the title of Hengjiang Zhong. General Lang is second only to Yun Chang, Zizhong and Zifang, and ranks the same as Zilong and Yide."

While talking, Liu Bei took off the seal ribbon from Zhao Yun's waist and handed it to Huo Jun. He said: "If you think the official is junior, Bei can declare that he is the general of Bi, second only to Yun Chang. If he asks who is Yun Chang? Zhong Miao Moreover, it is said that those who kill good-looking people and destroy bad writings will be worshiped by the emperor as Han Shoutinghou, partial generals, Guan Yu, and Guan Yunchang!"

After a pause, Liu Bei said sincerely: "Xingba is a man of temperament. When he is angry, if a bad person lives or property is burned, I will guarantee it with all my strength."

"This~"

Huo Jun looked at the seal ribbon in his hand. He was frightened by Liu Bei's actions.

That’s right, I was scared!
In Liu Bei's group, apart from Liu Bei, Guan Yu has the highest status and holds the position of partial general.Zhang Fei and Zhao Yun were both Zhonglang Generals with various titles, higher than Huo Jun's Zhonglang General without any miscellaneous titles, and lower than General Pi.

Liu Bei's ability to give Gan Ning such a sense of his status in the group cannot be said to be heroic, but extremely heroic.Compared with Liu Bei's magnanimity, the rewards given by Jingzhou Shepherd Liu Biao to the heroes of the Jiangxia War were really shabby and excessive.

Huo Jun also knew that Liu Bei was able to give such a high official position to Gan Ning, a stranger, not because of Huo Jun himself!Of course, this is not only a reward for Gan Ning, but also a hint for Huo Jun.I can even give such a high official position to the people you brought, let alone you personally join me.

Huo Jun shook hands with Liu Bei heavily and said, "Ming Gong, General Hengjiang Zhonglang is enough!"

After saying that, Huo Jun turned around and left.And Liu Bei was behind him, shouting: "Zhong Miao, it's getting late, it's hard to see the water channel, you still need to be careful on your way!"

Huo Jun, who boarded the stern, bowed his hand to Liu Bei on the pier, then anchored and sailed towards Jiangxia under the starry sky.

Liu Bei, who stayed on the dock, patted Zhao Yun on the shoulder and said, "Zilong has wronged you. I'll give you the seal and ribbon in a few days."

……

In the corner of Jiangxia camp, Zhang Feng, the bookkeeper, threw the money bag into the hands of Zhang Heng, the greedy Jinfan thief, and said: "Every time you recruit someone to serve the prince, you will get ten coins. If you recruit five people, In addition to money, the prince will also call you the captain of the corps, and if you have ten people, you will be very senior."

Zhang Heng shook the heavy money bag in his hand, with a greedy look on his face, and said, "Please don't worry, chief clerk. Please note it down, I'm afraid the chief clerk doesn't have enough money." "Haha~"

Zhang Feng laughed a few times and said: "If you manage enough money, I'm afraid you don't have enough people."

"Thank you, Chief!"

Zhang Heng put the money bag into the cloth bag, cupped his hands, and swung it out. The bells on his body shook with every step he took.

After Zhang Heng left, Zhang Feng stroked his thin beard and smiled secretly in his heart.

Huang Zu gave him twenty guans per person, so he immediately gave Jinfan thieves 500 guan each, taking half of it.Ten people are one hundred coins, one hundred people are one thousand coins, and [-] people are five thousand coins. This is a huge sum of money.Before long, you may be able to buy slaves from Jiangxia Real Estate again.

Zhang Heng, who had just left, sneered, touched the money in his bag, and turned around to find Gan Ning.

Recently, some of Gan Ning's 800 people have made excuses to leave, or blatantly become Huang Zu's subordinates.In order to find out the reason, Gan Ning asked Zhang Heng to go find out.

In the camp, Gan Ning threw the ten guans in his hand to the ground and cursed: "Huang Zu, I am your ancestor. I have fought for you through life and death, and you actually came to poach my people."

Then, Gan Ning kicked the overturner and cursed: "These bastards will run with anyone when they see money. They sold me for ten dollars."

In a rage, Gan Ning threw things everywhere in the tent, which made Zhang Heng's heart beat wildly.

As Huo Jun said, these chapters are the reverse of Gan Ning. Gan Ning was able to run from Yizhou to Nanyang, and then from Nanyang to Jiangxia in troubled times, not because of his reputation as a Jinfan thief.It was about his group of subordinates who dared to fight and his own bravery.

Without his subordinates, Gan Ning would be like a tiger without its claws. Who would reuse him in troubled times?The day after losing Bu Qu, his head might appear on Huang Zu's desk.

In a rage, Gan Ning clenched the hilt of the ring-headed knife in his hand, as if he wanted to kill someone.But considering Su Fei, Gan Ning loosened the handle of the knife again.

At this time, Su Fei heard the noise and rushed over, asking, "Xingba, what's going on?"

Gan Ning took a deep breath to hold back his anger and said: "Huang Zu, my son, ordered the bastard Zhang Feng to buy my tribe with money. Now there are many people separated."

"what!"

Su Fei looked at the messy tent and realized why Gan Ning was so angry.

Su Fei found a clean place to sit down and said: "I recommended Xingba to the general several times, but the general couldn't use it. Now he uses despicable means to divide the tribes, which is despicable. The sun and the moon are over, Life is short, Xing Ba should make plans early."

Gan Ning sat on the ground and said with a low expression: "Although Ning has great ambitions, his future is unclear. Huang Zu wants to kill me, but Liu Biao cannot use me again."

Su Fei sighed and said, "Zhong Miao has asked General Zuo to conquer Xingba as an official, why don't you wait any longer?"

Gan Ning drew a circle on the ground with his hand and said: "General Zuo has only five thousand soldiers, and he is still temporarily living under Liu Biao's tent, serving as the vanguard for the eldest son to defeat the thieves. We can't have a foundation now. I would rather serve under General Zuo's tent, but it is difficult to expand. Ambition.”

After saying that, Gan Ning smiled bitterly and said: "Huang Zu wants to kill me now, and if we wait for Zhong Miao and General Zuo to go south, I am afraid that Ning's troops will be scattered long ago, and his head will not be saved."

"Jiangdong?"

"Ok!"

Su Fei stood up, put his hands behind his waist, and sighed: "Tomorrow I will fly to patrol the camp, Xingba can lead his troops on his own."
