The Summoning World of the Great Qin Empire

Chapter 893
Huang Zhong also had no way to do it now, when he heard Gan Ning say this, he was shocked: "Gan Xingba, just tell me, what should I do?"

Gan Ning pondered, "Since Jiangzhou City has fallen, the Three Gorges Pass may not be on our side, so walking from the mountains and rivers is definitely a dead end, and the only way to survive is to survive by land."

"You mean..." Huang Gai's eyes flashed, and he pointed to the north with his finger.

"That's right." Gan Ning nodded, "Of course Xu Shu's army couldn't have fallen from above. It must have crossed the mountains from Wuling, then flowed down the river, and quietly reached the outside of Jiangzhou City. When attacking Jiangyang City, united with the old troops in the city, captured Jiangzhou City, cut off our escape route, now the only way to survive is to go back to Shangyong, and make peace with the king's soldiers."

"It's just that when I waited for the waterway expedition to the west, the situation was very good, but in the end, I lost troops and generals, and lost Jiangzhou, the Three Gorges and other passes..." Huang Gai said helplessly: "If we go back like this, I'm afraid the king will punish him."

"I waited for the lone army to go deep, but there was no support from the follow-up troops. How could today's defeat be all due to us?" Gan Ningdao was more open-minded than Huang Gai: "Besides, this time we won the Three Gorges Pass and Jiangzhou City was originally obtained by chance, even if it is lost now, there is not much to be regretted about, and the most important thing is that we can bring our brothers out alive now."

Huang Gai turned his head and glanced at the many soldiers behind him, everyone's eyes were full of fear and desire to survive.

Gan Ning didn't know what Huang Gai was thinking, but said: "In this troubled world, survival is the most important thing. Your Majesty will not blame us for destroying the warship, at least destroy the warship, and there is no need to keep it." For the people of Shu, it is still a good thing in general.

After being silent for a while, Huang Gai said: "Then everything depends on Xingba."

Gan Ning immediately climbed up and shouted loudly: "Soldiers and soldiers, the current situation has reached a critical moment. I, Gan Ning, have no bold words to say. I just want to say something to everyone. General Huang Gai and I will take you with us. Return to Shu alive!"

The morale of the army rose a little bit, Gan Ning said again: "From now on, throw away the items in it, and move the army to the north. Let's go to Shangyong and have a round with the king. No matter what we do in the south, the king will never mess up." Kill the strong man!"

"The entire army, apart from food, only carry simple knives, hand shields, bows and arrows, especially bows and arrows, and you can't let go of any of them!"

"All the remaining things are piled up together, and they will be burned in a big fire. The Shu army who chased us will definitely chase after seeing the fire. This will delay the pace of the Shu army."

It didn't take long for the raging fire to ignite, and Gan Ning led the army into the forest, like Xu Shu, leading the army with their heads covered and rushing wildly.

Xu Shu used a raft to go down from Qujiang when the water was swollen, so the speed was so fast that it could be called a thousand miles in a day.

Gan Ning is now leading the army to go up. Although the road is not difficult, it is not very fast.

Qujiang is the official name, and this river is also called Bajiang in Shu.There are two big rivers to the west of the Bajiang River, namely Diving River and Fushui River.

The three great rivers finally converged in one place, which is called Dianjiang City.

The vicinity of Dianjiang City was changed to Pudi.

The Pudi Mountains are criss-crossing, and it is indeed a dead horse in the old saying.

Gan Ning led the army into the forest, and it didn't take long for Han Shizhong and Xu Shu to join forces.

Li Jiancheng led an army all the way and entered Pudi first, preparing to hunt down Gan Ning and Huang Gai's army in the mountains and forests.The remaining two armies were Han Shizhong and Xu Shu who went up smoothly, taking the water route.

For three full days, the army ran wildly in the mountains and forests.

When Gan Ning first entered the mountain forest, what Gan Ning was most worried about was the heavy rain, but he found that Li Jiancheng behind him was chasing and biting him like a dead dog; Gan Ning and Huang Gai almost asked God for help, get off quickly In the rainstorm, even if a few people freeze to death, it doesn't matter.

Why is it raining?
Heavy rain can perfectly cover the traces of the army. As long as there is a heavy rain under such circumstances, the traces of the army can be covered up immediately.

Sometimes, it really is the sky that fails to fulfill people's wishes.

God not only did not rain, but it was also full of sun every day. The army was walking in the mountains and forests, the weather was hot and humid, and the soldiers were miserable. It can only be said that Gan Ning had the foresight, and everything was missing except for the necessary things.

"Continuing like this is not a solution, we must think of a way." Huang Gai's face was full of sadness.

Jiangzhou City is definitely not going to be able to go now, and Dianjiang City is also definitely not going to be able to go. The Shu army who walks by water is definitely faster than the people in the mountains and forests.

Gan Ning took a sip from the water bottle: "The only thing to be thankful for now is that there are no deserters in the army. If there are deserters, it will be a real defeat."

"If necessary, Dianjiang City can only be spared." Gan Ning gritted his teeth.

Huang Gai suddenly had an idea, looked at Gan Ning and said, "Why don't you and I separate our forces now!"

"Are you kidding me? If we divide our forces now, wouldn't we be looking for death?" Gan Ning rejected Huang Gai's idea without even thinking about it.

Huang Gai said seriously: "Whether it works or not, listen to me, the more I suddenly thought of this method."

"Tell me." Gan Ning looked at Huang Gai and said.

Huang Gai said: "If we divide up our forces now and lead Li Jiancheng's army away, then you see whether Jiangyang City or Jiangzhou City will fall into emptiness in this way. Wouldn't it be easy for the other person to lead the surprise attack?" Take Jiangzhou? As for Jiangyang City.

In this way, you can send troops to Chengdu, and even take down the Chengdu Mansion without anyone noticing it. In this way, the whole country of Shu will be shocked. When the time comes, the Shu army will be defeated without a fight. At that time, you and me Then it can be famous all over the world and spread through the ages. "

Gan Ning didn't speak, and thought about this question in silence, then looked at Huang Gai and said, "If you don't go into the water, as long as one of you and I lures Li Jiancheng away, the other can sneak into Chengdu from the mountains and forests." Outside the mansion, when the time comes, the gods will descend, and Chengdu will become the possession of our Chu State..."

"It's just..." Gan Ning found that the corners of his mouth were very bitter: "In this way, you and I are really close to death."

Huang Gai smiled suddenly: "You and I are now leading the army walking in the mountains. There is Li Jiancheng in the back and Dianjiang City's army in the front. It has almost formed an ambush from all sides. How come it is not a narrow escape?"

"Xingba, you lead the army to Chengdu, and I will lure Li Jiancheng away. Tonight I will lead the army, set up an ambush, fight Li Jiancheng, and then lead the army to Jiangzhou City. Li Jiancheng will definitely pursue him. This is your chance to jump out of the encirclement."

"Then..." Gan Ning's face became tense, and he continued to ask, "What are your plans after you leave Jiangzhou?"

Huang Gai laughed and said, "Xingba really thinks I'm going to die?"

"When I went to Jiangzhou, I just led Li Jiancheng to get out of the way for you. When I was almost gone, I plunged into the mountains again. At that time, even Li Jiancheng would return to the current state and still chase after me. I don’t want to give up, and I definitely believe that you and I are the ones chasing after me, this is your chance to win Chengdu!"

After a pause, Huang Zhong sighed: "It's just a pity, you and I are going deep alone now, and the follow-up army hasn't arrived yet. Otherwise, how could we have become so embarrassed?"

"For this, I believe Master Xiangguo will have his own arrangements, and he will definitely not treat us as pawns." Gan Ning said this, but there was a resentment in his heart, and the feeling of being treated as pawns was getting stronger and stronger. .

……

In the city of Luoyang, Lu Bu was talking to Fan Li, who shared the documents sent from all over the country, with a secretive smile on his face.

"As long as Zheng Guo is really going to war with Chu State now, then the King will send his troops south and capture Yingdu in one fell swoop."

Lu Bu asked with some concern: "Will Guo Ziyi in Anyi City take the opportunity to lead the army south?"

"No!" Fan Li said confidently: "Absolutely not. The current famine in Qin State is somewhat beyond our imagination, so Qin State is now a hungry wolf. As long as we don't provoke them, They won't come to provoke us, not to mention, isn't Qin now also hoping that our side will fight as chaotically as possible."

Lu Bu said: "Attacking Chu with the whole country is a dangerous move. If it fails, the consequences will be disastrous."

Fan Li said: "Your Majesty must not be so indecisive before going to battle. The soldiers in the army have mustered up all their courage and are waiting for your Majesty's order to capture the rich land of Chu. After a while, Chu State can take Wuling City and go directly to Hanzhong, so that the main force of Chu State will march towards Shu again, and we will have an extra point against me."

"I heard that the state of Chu has also dispatched a navy to take down Jiangzhou City, and the momentum has shaken the world." Lu Bu frowned and said, "If one fails, Li Shimin will really lose the land of Shu and take his life with him." In Hanzhong County, this is really speechless."

"Gan Ning, Huang Gai and others can only be regarded as going deep alone. Even if they reach the outside of Chengdu, without the support of follow-up troops, there will be no waves after all. Besides... Your Majesty has never thought about a problem. So what if the Chu army took down Chengdu Mansion? Li Shimin is still in Hanzhong. If Li Shimin is not killed, the Kingdom of Shu will not perish. Therefore, this move of Chu Kingdom seems to be a brilliant move, but it is also a bit dizzy."

Regarding Fan Li's comment, Lu Bu somewhat disagreed in his heart, but he did not express it clearly.
