Chapter 211 Conspiracy(1/3)
"Even if our army can break through the defense line of Jiangdong and step into Jiangdong, it will not be able to replenish supplies and will be cut off by the Jiangdong soldiers who are coming to support at any time. Wouldn't this be in vain to die?"
Su Chen can only say that Xu Chu’s ideas are too naive.
If it was really so easy to enter Jiangdong, why did Cao Cao gather his troops and try to determine life and death in the battle between Chibi and Jiangdong?
Of course, there is something like Cao Cao’s gambling, but more of it is still helplessness with the Yangtze River.
"Hehe, I understand."
Xu Chu scratched his forehead. This kind of problem was indeed too simple for him.
"Okay, after talking so much, I'm hungry, Prime Minister, Zhongkang, eat something to fill my stomach."
Su Chen waved his hand and signaled Xu Chu to sit down too.
Xu Chu quickly sat down and looked at Su Chen with a gaze.
The expression was like a child waiting for punishment for doing something wrong.
"I know that Zhongkang, you haven't had a good wine for a long time, so I've prepared it for you."
Su Chen shook his head and went to get a jar of good wine for Xu Chu.
When Xu Chu saw it, his eyes widened and he kept swallowing his saliva.
After Su Chen handed it to him, he couldn't wait to drink it wildly.
"Good wine, good wine!"
While drinking, he shouted happily.
"grown ups……"
At this time, Zhao Yang's figure suddenly ran over from a distance and said with a heavy breath, "There is a man named Gan Ning outside, who said he wants to see you."
"Oh? Xingba is back, hurry up, bring him here." Su Chen smiled and shouted.
"I'll go now."
Zhao Yang ran away.
Soon he took Gan Ning in and then withdrew from it with tactfulness.
"Xingba, come on, I heard that you burned Liu Bei's food and grass with hundreds of cavalry in Jiangdong. Come and tell me how it was done." Su Chen waved to Gan Ning.
To be honest, he was also shocked when he heard the news.
I thought Gan Ning was really brave.
He brought a hundred people to Jiangdong and even burned Liu Bei's food and grass.
You know, at that time, Liu Bei transported grain at least several thousand people to guard him.
If one hundred people attack thousands of people, they can still escape unscathed.
Such a skill is really amazing.
"Meet the Prime Minister and Military Advisor."
Gan Ning walked over with some restraint. After sitting down a little behind, he briefly explained the situation.
It turned out that when Gan Ning saw Liu Bei escaped, he planned to return to Jiangling to report to Xiahou Dun, and then returned to Jiangxia and continued to lead troops, intending to capture several small towns around him.
As a result, he didn't go far. Thinking of not being able to complete Su Chen's mission, Gan Ning felt ashamed. When he went back, he had no face to face Su Chen, so he simply refused to go back to Jiangling, leaving a hundred elite troops by his side, and followed him to Jiangdong, waiting for an opportunity to move.
As for the others, he was arranged to return to Jiangling and report to Xiahou Dun.
He and these hundred elite soldiers, Jinfan thieves who have been used as Jinfan thieves for many years, have a very good understanding of the waters of the Yangtze River.
Even though Jiangdong was strictly guarded, Gan Ning found an opportunity to dive and scuba and got in.
I originally planned to fight the autumn wind in Jiangdong and create some chaos, but unexpectedly, I happened to encounter the food and grass that Liu Bei bought from Wuchang City.
............. 0
Gan Ning was afraid of being brave at that time, and he didn't think much about it. He carried his weapon and planned to burn food.
Even if you lose, you can give Su Chen an explanation when you go back.
But what Gan Ning didn't expect was that Liu Jun's defense was extremely relaxed.
Maybe he didn't expect to be attacked in Jiangdong, so he gave Gan Ning a chance to take advantage of it in a hurry.
A big fire burned Liu Bei's food and grass directly.
Then he rode the horses stolen from Liu Bei's army and fled far away.
If Zhang Fei hadn't caught up later and more than ten brothers were killed by Liu Jun for the sake of the palace, Gan Ning would have been able to escape with his subordinates in this raid.
Even so.
When Su Chen finished listening to Gan Ning's words, he couldn't help but sweat for Gan Ning.
It's a lucky draw!
But I have to say that Gan Ning really has a kind of talent!
Pure man!
"Xingba, don't do such a risky thing next time. Even if the mission fails, life must be the priority."
Although she was moved by Gan Ning's bravery, Su Chen still blamed her with a stern face.
Just a few Liu Jun’s food and supplies are not worth mentioning at all.
If you lose a powerful general like Gan Ning because of this, it will be really not worth the loss.
"Yes, military advisor, I realized that I was wrong." Gan Ning was moved.
The military advisor is thinking about him!
"I burned Liu Bei's food and grass, and came back from the long distance across the river. I must be tired. Go down to rest first. You will be indispensable in the next battle." Su Chen said with concern.
"I'm not tired. By the way, the military advisor. After burning Liu Bei's grain and grass, I went to the vicinity of Liu Bei's military camp to find out the news, but I heard that Zhuge Liang planned to exchange 100,000 stones of grain and grass with Sun Quan for 100,000 stones of grain and grass."
After Gan Ning finished speaking, his face looked a little strange, "Zhuge Liang is really good at bragging. Did he become stupid after the food and grass are burned?"
"Is it so easy to build a hundred thousand bows and arrows?"
Hearing words.
Su Chen's eyes lit up.
He looked up at the sky.
No wonder the sun has been strong recently, and it turns out that there is thick fog in the morning.
He usually slept until midnight before getting up, and he really didn't know the weather conditions in the morning.
Fortunately, Gan Ning reminded him, otherwise he would have missed a big show.
He looked at Gan Ning and smiled secretly in his heart.
Zhuge Liang was really not bragging. He borrowed arrows from a straw boat and deceived more than 100,000 bows and arrows from Cao Cao, which was rumored to be a good story, which made Zhuge Liang's status unlimitedly elevated in the Sun and Liu families.
But that's it.
With him here now, Zhuge Liang will definitely not succeed.
Cao Cao looked puzzled.
He thought about it just now that if he wanted to build a hundred thousand bows and arrows, there would be many craftsmen needed, and he would spend a lot of money and time.
Liu Bei only has more than 10,000 troops now.
But since Zhuge Liang is called Mr. Wolong, he is also a smart person and will not be aimless.
He really couldn't imagine how Zhuge Liang would build 100,000 arrows.
"Military advisor, can you tell what Zhuge Liang has to plan?"
After not understanding it, Cao Cao simply looked at Su Chen in front of him and asked.
"Of course, Zhuge Liang could not make 100,000 arrows, but he could borrow arrows." Su Chen smiled and said.
"borrow?"
Cao Cao was stunned, "Who can borrow arrows to him? What's more, there are 100,000 arrows."
"Of course it's the Prime Minister. Zhuge Liang will ask the Prime Minister to borrow arrows, and after he borrows the arrows, he will not return it to the Prime Minister."
After hearing Su Chen's words, Cao Cao became even more confused.
How could he lend an arrow to Zhuge Liang?
Is there any hidden secrets in this?
"I would like to ask the military advisor to tell you in detail how Zhuge Liang would borrow arrows." Cao Cao guessed that borrowing arrows was probably Zhuge Liang's plan, but it was a pity that he had not seen through it for the time being.
"This is related to the weather in recent days." Su Chen nodded and asked with a smile, "Master, what's the weather in the morning recently?"
Cao Cao recalled the scene when he woke up in the morning and said, "The thick fog masked, and he couldn't see the five fingers even if he couldn't see the figure three meters away."
After saying that, Cao Cao was stunned for a moment, but soon realized, "Is it because Zhuge Liang borrowed an arrow, which is related to this thick fog weather?"
