Shu Han of the Three Kingdoms I call the shots

Although today is the last day, the amount of training is still the same as usual. (Apex novel hand-made novel) When the ringing sound sounded, Liu Feng gave the order to disband.

He himself brought Chen Da back to Shuai Zhang.

What was released just now was not a lie. A few days ago, Liu Feng had already decided to send troops to wipe out the water thieves.

Go into battle, see blood.It is the only way for an army to mature and become elite.No matter how much training you have, no matter how clever you are, you cannot skip this process.

And there is another problem bothering Liu Feng, money.

As the saying goes, a penny beats a hero, and Liu Feng's current dilemma is lack of money.

Because Liu Feng's three hundred troops ate pork and mutton every day, the price of pork in Xinye and Jingzhou has risen a lot.

In addition, hire craftsmen to dig rocks.The one thousand gold that Mi Zhu had given at the beginning had already been used up.The sea pearls worth thousands of gold that Mrs. Mi sent cannot be sold for money.It looks like times are going to get tough.

Liu Feng turned his attention to the water thief.

He has an army, and his army needs to find someone to train.It can also open up avenues of wealth.It's the best of both worlds.

In the handsome account, Zhang Dao was already present, Deng Ai was also present, plus Liu Feng who had returned from training, and Chen Da.The current civil and military under Liu Feng's tent lacks only Xu Tian.

A few days ago, Xu Tian was sent out by Liu Feng to inquire about the water thief. Yesterday he sent someone back to say that he would return to the camp this morning to report Liu Feng's situation about the water thief.

After entering the account, Liu Feng went straight to the commander's seat and sat down.Looking at the empty seat below, he asked Zhang Daodao, "He hasn't come back yet?"

"It should be here soon." Zhang Dao replied.

"Wait." Liu Feng said, without detailed information, it is impossible to discuss the dispatch of troops.Although Liu Feng wanted to send troops as soon as possible, he had to calm down at this time.

However, this wait is an hour.Seeing that the sun has risen high.Xu Tian hadn't come back yet, Zhang Dao couldn't help feeling a little impatient.

He knew that Xu Tian was the most honest person, if he said he would arrive in the morning, he would definitely arrive in the morning.But Xu Tian hasn't been seen at this hour, so there must be some accident on the road.

"My lord, do you want to send someone to check the situation?" After sitting for about a quarter of an hour, Zhang Dao couldn't sit still anymore, he stood up and clasped his fists.

"He's going to inquire about the news, not to fight. Nothing will happen, at most it's delayed because of some trivial matters." Liu Feng shook his head and said.

When things came to an end, Liu Feng lost his impatience and appeared very calm.

Inquiring about news is also risky, if caught by water thieves.There will definitely be some bitterness.However, looking at Liu Feng's calm appearance, even if Zhang Dao was impatient, he had to calm down and wait quietly.

In comparison, Chen Da next to him was too calm.Sitting there without moving, like a sculpture.

This old pawn on the battlefield has experienced too many lives and deaths.Even if Xu Tian didn't come back, it couldn't change his color.

Fortunately, after a while, Xu Tian, ​​who arrived late, entered the big tent.

As soon as he entered the account, Xu Tian bowed deeply to Liu Feng and his colleagues in the account, and said apologetically, "I've come here so long, I still hope my lord, please forgive me."

Liu Feng looked up at Xu Tian, ​​only to see that Xu Tian was not only dusty, but also had some bruises on his forehead.I know, something must have happened on the way.

Can't help asking gently: "What happened on the way?"

It was not only Liu Feng who saw the bruise on Xu Tian's head, but also those present who had eyes. Hearing this, they immediately turned their attention to Xu Tian.

With an embarrassing smile, Xu Tian raised his fist at Liu Feng and said, "The horse was killed because it was too fast." After explaining, Xu Tian said, "If it wasn't for a strong man named Gan on the way, he gave a horse as a gift. Give it to the subordinate, I am afraid the subordinate will have to walk back."

Liu Feng knew that Xu Tian went out in a carriage, but while driving at a high speed, the horse suddenly died.What a thrill this is.

Thinking about it, Liu Feng couldn't help breaking into a cold sweat for Xu Tian.However, seeing what Xu Tian said was very concise, he obviously didn't want to talk too much about this topic.Liu Feng didn't do much to comfort him.

"So, I don't blame you." Liu Feng smiled, and then said with a smile: "But that strong man surnamed Gan should thank you very much. After the troops are dispatched, you can bring some gifts and pay a visit by the way."

"No." Xu Tian nodded and replied.

"Of course we should be grateful for this matter, but don't worry too much about it. In comparison, Master Xu brought back the news of the water thief?" Chen Da asked aloud.

"Naturally." Speaking of this, Xu Tian's spirit couldn't help shaking. He pulled out a white cloth with a map of mountains and rivers from his sleeve, stepped forward a few steps, and placed it on the case in front of Liu Feng.

Without Liu Feng's order, the other three people also surrounded him.

On the map, Xinye and Fancheng are marked.As well as Xiangyang, there are some water systems.These three cities are triangular in shape.Xu Tian stretched out his right hand, pointed to a river in the middle of the triangle, and said, "Here is an island in the middle of the river, named Du. There are about two or three hundred water thieves entrenched here."

"These water thieves have been entrenched here for five or six years, quite a long time. They often go down the river, and Liu Jingzhou sent troops to exterminate them before looting, but these water thieves are quite cunning, and they simply escaped from Du Island. After Liu Jingzhou's army left, they turned back again. This happened two or three times. Liu Biao could only let it go."

"By the way, there is another very interesting question. These water thieves have never sent troops to the north to plunder the villages under the jurisdiction of Fancheng."

Liu Feng also felt a little interesting when he heard it, and said with a smile: "It seems that this group of water thieves is not only cunning, but also has some foresight. I know that Cao Cao is strong, but Liu Jingzhou is weak. Maybe when Cao Cao goes south, this group of water thieves will still be willing." Let's take refuge in Cao Cao."

"Hehe, what's the name of the leader of this gang of water thieves?" Liu Feng finally asked.

"A man named Zhang Gui." Xu Tian replied.

Liu Feng nodded and wrote down the name.Immediately, he fell into deep thought, entrenched on an island in the heart of the river.Although there are not many troops, there are two or three hundred.It is easy to defend but difficult to attack, especially for Liu Feng's team of only 300 people, this bone is particularly difficult to crack.

If you want to train your troops, what you need is to fight in battle, not this kind of offensive and defensive battle.

Moreover, it cannot prevent the opponent from escaping.If they are water thieves, they are proficient in water. If they travel by boat, Liu Feng's army will never be able to catch up.

If you can't attack by force, you can only lure the snake out of the hole.

"Will they rob the caravan?" Liu Feng asked after thinking about it in his heart.

He didn't say how to deal with these water thieves, but everyone present understood it very well.They all turned their attention to Xu Tian.

"Occasionally they rob caravans, but basically they mainly rob villages." Xu Tian also understood Liu Feng's meaning and replied immediately.

Just occasionally robbing caravans?

Liu Feng's heart was not only a little heavy, but also a little disappointed.

Not robbing the caravan means a lot of money.It was quite a blow to his plan to open up a source of income.
