Chapter 402: I have to prosper, like the great ancestor of Fan Kuai! (Four in one, there are
(Added 1/10 for book friend C-leader)
Here in Wu County, not too far away from the river, Zhang Liao withdrew the gun that was pressed against Gan Ning's chest.
Gan Ning did not do anything to take advantage of the situation and continue to counterattack Zhang Liao's insidious villain moves.
He cupped his fists and saluted Zhang Liao, saying, "General Zhang is very skilled in martial arts, but Gan Ning is not as good as others. I admire him in my heart."
After that, he looked at Zhang Liao and said: "If we are on a boat, General Zhang will not be able to defeat me!"
Zhang Liao laughed when he heard this and said, "I'll just wait for you on the shore!"
Gan Ning heard this and started laughing.
"What do you think? Do you want to go see the emperor?
Although you, Gan Xingba, never defeated me, you were able to fight me for more than a hundred rounds before losing. This record is not embarrassing to tell.
It's not as good as defeating me in a dazzling way, but it can be justified to the emperor's uncle, and he will never let the emperor treat you as an ordinary person.
To tell you the truth, there are not many generals under the emperor's uncle who are proficient in water warfare. Except for the emperor's uncle himself, the other generals are not good at this aspect.
You have been on the river all year round, you have good water skills, you are familiar with the waters, and your martial arts skills are not bad.
If you follow the emperor's uncle, you will definitely be reused.
When the time comes, wouldn't it be a hundred times better to find a wife and a son than to lead some people to cut off the river and cut off the river?
What I said is all good advice, think about it yourself!"
After Gan Ning heard this, he thought for a moment and said, "What if I say no?"
Zhang Liao laughed and said: "Then you are the Jiejiang bandit who attacked the military stronghold, an outlaw thief!
This kind of people will naturally behead their heads and hang them in public to serve as a warning to others!"
When Gan Ning heard this, a smile appeared on his face.
He sighed again and said: "In this case, do I have any choice?
Naturally, he wanted to follow the emperor's uncle, become a general under the emperor's uncle, have a wife and son, and honor his ancestors.
but……"
There was a twist in Gan Ning's words.
Zhang Liao looked at him with a smile and did not answer, just waiting for Gan Ning to finish speaking.
"But I had a bad experience. In the past, I was young and frivolous, and I did a lot of outrageous things.
Even if he has some courage, I'm afraid it would be inappropriate to seek refuge with the emperor's uncle at this time.
It would be much safer if General Zhang could write a letter and ask me to take him to see the emperor's uncle and introduce him on his behalf."
Gan Ning looked at Zhang Liao and said the rest of his words.
It turns out that the reason why I have said so much is for this.
Zhang Liao smiled and said: "If you are interested, I will naturally be happy to introduce you.
The emperor's uncle has always been eager for talents, regardless of his background.
In the past, people like Xing Ba could still be reused even without my recommendation."
After saying that, he looked at Gan Ning and said, "I agree to this. Besides, what other requirements do you have? You can tell them all."
Gan Ning said: "It's already a lot of trouble, so there's no need for the rest."
After speaking, he lowered his voice and said: "I don't meet the emperor for nothing, I also want to give him something."
"What's the matter?"
"A moderate fortune."
Gan Ning is a guy who has been around in the street. He has not changed his speaking habits yet. He wants to give away wealth and honor, and the person he gives it to is Liu Cheng.
Zhang Liao frowned and said, "Speak carefully and don't make fun of me. What you said is cloudy and foggy. It concerns the emperor's uncle. You can't be careless in the slightest."
Hearing this, Gan Ning smiled awkwardly: "I haven't changed my past habits for a while."
As he spoke, his voice dropped even lower: "There are some aristocratic families in Xichuan who are dissatisfied with the emperor's uncle and want to cause trouble for the emperor's uncle.
Found it on my head.
When I came, those people were secretly causing trouble behind me.
You want me to come here to Wu County, kill you, General Zhang, and cut off the emperor’s right arm, so that I can teach him a big lesson and make him suffer here..."
"So you came?"
Zhang Liao looked at Gan Ning and asked with a half-smile.
Gan Ning smiled and said: "My original intention was to find the emperor's uncle and work under him.
In the past, when I was young and frivolous, I thought some things were very romantic.
Now that I look at it again, I find it outrageous.
Liu Yan is not a broad-minded person, he is not a person, and he is not worthy of handling me.
Now that a person like Uncle Huang has come to Xichuan, I want to seek refuge with him.
Coincidentally, at this time, these people rushed to my door and wanted to give me wealth.
When I thought about it, I thought this was a good thing.
Hugging grass and hunting rabbits... well... we won't waste any time.
I brought my brothers over here..."
Hearing Gan Ning's words, Zhang Liao suddenly laughed.
This Gan Xingba is planning to kill those who pay him to do things.
First, he pretended to agree to do things and got a lot of benefits from them. Then he went to the emperor's uncle and sold these people to him. As soon as he came to the emperor's uncle, he made meritorious deeds.
Stop by and have a fight with yourself.
It's better to win against yourself. A defeat like this one, where you have to fight with yourself for more than a hundred rounds before losing, is the same as never losing.
can fully prove his ability.
This Gan Xingba is not a simple character!
However, he likes it very much!
Those local wealthy families in Xichuan wanted to harm the emperor's uncle, so they chose himself as the target.
He was very worried!
Gan Ning's coquettish operation played right into his heart, which made him feel particularly relieved.
"What you have done is extremely outstanding. When your uncle knows about it, he will definitely be extremely happy.
Xingba, you have the ability and such a good character, I can foresee that you will be able to live a comfortable life under the Emperor's uncle."
Gan Ning also laughed when he heard this.
"Are you going to take your men ashore here and wait for news from the emperor's uncle, or are you going to find the emperor's uncle yourself?"
Zhang Liao asked Gan Ning after talking for a while.
Gan Ning said: "I'd better go see the emperor earlier.
In the past, it was okay that such thoughts did not arise, but now that such thoughts have arisen, I don’t want to wait any longer, and I don’t want to be this Jinfan thief anymore!”
Zhang Liao heard this and did not stop him.
He said: "Now that Xingba has made a decision in his heart, just go ahead.
I'll give you some letters of recommendation right away..."
Black Tiger stood on the bow of the boat in the river, trying hard to act, while looking eagerly at the shore, hoping that Zhang Liao would take action and kill Gan Ning.
As a result, the scene he was looking forward to not only did not appear, Zhang Liao also started a cordial conversation with Gan Ning!
This situation made Heihu, who had made all preparations and was waiting for Gan Ning to be killed and then receive the inheritance left by Gan Ning, feel very bad.
What is going on?
When Gan Ning returned to the ship safe and sound, he announced to everyone that he had proved his strength to Uncle Liu Huang through Zhang Liao, and asked Zhang Liao to write a letter of recommendation for him, and would lead them to Mianzhu to join Uncle Liu Huang. From now on, he would
After doing things for Uncle Liu Huang, Hei Hu became even more confused!
This, what exactly is going on?
Didn’t you agree that you were just using this as an excuse to deceive Zhang Liao and Zhang Wenyuan, so that you could use this as an opportunity to kill Zhang Wenyuan?
Why did it become true that he went to seek refuge with Liu Cheng now?
Why did such a big change happen all of a sudden?!
It turns out that Heihu felt that he knew everything and everything was under his control.
But now, he suddenly realized that he couldn't understand anything...
“Commander, didn’t you agree to kill Zhang Wenyuan with all your strength, and if that didn’t work, you would immediately sail east?
How is this..."
Heihu held it in his heart for a long time, but finally couldn't hold it in and asked Gan Ning.
As soon as the words came out of his mouth, an idea suddenly flashed in his mind, and a possibility came to mind.
Before Gan Ning could speak, he quickly said:
"I see!
Commander, you saw something was wrong just now, so you lied and deceived Zhang Liao, pretending to go to Uncle Liu to seek refuge, but in fact you used this as an excuse to escape.
Take a detour to the east from somewhere else, or modify the ship to avoid Zhang Liao's eyes, and then continue eastward!
Or maybe the commander wanted to do something big, so he took this as an opportunity to go to Mianzhu and kill Uncle Liu Huang directly...
Commander, you are so smart!
What a great wisdom!
In such a short period of time, we were able to come up with such a good idea!"
As he said this, he looked at Gan Ning with bright eyes, as if there was light beating inside.
Full of adoration.
Gan Ning looked at him and shook his head sharply: "No, everything you said is wrong. I just want to go and seek refuge with Uncle Liu Huang!"
Black Tiger was immediately dumbfounded.
The kind where everyone is confused.
"Commander, why are you doing this?"
Gan Ning looked at him and smiled: "Why can't I do this? Why do I have to be an enemy of Uncle Liu Huang?
I have this kind of ability, wouldn’t it be a good idea to join Uncle Liu Huang’s staff, do some work for Uncle Liu Huang, and seek a decent family background?”
"You, you... Commander, you are right. It is indeed better to do things with Uncle Liu Huang than with those people."
Black Tiger changed the subject.
After saying this, he turned around and walked to the side.
After taking just two steps, I heard the sound of iron chains.
The black tiger was shocked when he heard this. He stretched his legs and jumped into the river.
But it was still too late after all.
As soon as he jumped up, an iron chain was already drawn to his leg and wrapped around him.
Gan Ning held the chain's hand and pulled hard, causing the black tiger to fall to the ground.
Black Tiger struggled to run away, but Gan Ning was already at his side.
Stepping on his back with his left foot, he drew the knife in his other hand and swung it down suddenly!
The struggling black tiger couldn't help but stiffen.
A scream came from his mouth.
Blood spurted out.
A finger dropped.
These fingers are the fingers of Black Tiger.
"Commander, commander! Why is this?
I am loyal to you, Commander-in-Chief, so even if you don’t want to do things for those people, you can’t treat me like this!
I am your capable subordinate!"
After Heihu screamed, he reluctantly defended himself in pain, his voice trembling.
Gan Ning held a chain in one hand and a knife in the other, and sneered: "You are loyal to me, why did you run away just now?"
Seeing Hei Hu's hands curled up desperately and hidden under his body, Gan Ning said: "Stretch out your hands yourself, or you will chop off the whole arm!"
Heihu was shocked when he heard this and was extremely frightened, but he still stretched out the bleeding palm that was missing his little finger.
Gan Ning raised the knife and dropped it, and Black Tiger's ring finger also fell cleanly.
"What were you running for just now?"
Gan Ning asked Black Tiger.
Black Tiger's whole body was trembling.
"I, I'm afraid that you, the leader, will take action against me..."
"Hands out!"
Gan Ning shouted.
Then he slashed down with one clean stroke.
After a scream, Black Tiger, who was soaked with sweat, trembled and said: "I, I said, I said, I received the benefits privately and wanted the commander to do this..."
"Bang!"
Gan Ning said nothing and slashed with his sword again.
In an instant, Black Tiger's left hand was left with only a thumb.
"I, I said it all, commander...commander, I just took the benefits, I'm afraid, I'm afraid that the commander will know..."
"Bang!"
The blood-stained sword fell, and the last thumb also fell off.
"Chief, I, I really, really that's all, I, I don't know what to say."
"Bang!"
Without saying a word, Gan Ning dropped the knife in his hand, and Black Tiger's fingerless palm fell down!
"Commander, commander, really, that's all there is...really..."
The black tiger cried bitterly and howled.
Gan Ning was unmoved, ignored him, and continued to slash with his sword.
Black Tiger's forearm fell down...
"I, I said, I said...
I, I want to kill someone with a borrowed knife, I want to harm, harm, kill the commander, I want to be the commander..."
When Gan Ning cut off Heihu's entire left arm and prepared to cut off his right arm, Heihu finally couldn't hold himself any longer.
Crying bitterly, she told everything that had happened.
"Commander, commander, yes, it was me. I was confused for a moment. I, I should die. I should die. Please, leader, please take care of my son..."
He begged Gan Ning.
Gan Ning said: "It is true that you will not survive. I will take care of your son. You can die and I will give you a happy life!"
As he said this, he killed the black tiger with one clean stroke of his knife.
When Black Tiger swallowed his breath, his eyes showed a look of relief.
Gan Ning raised his foot and kicked the black tiger into the river.
Water Monkey, Big Eyeball, and the other members of the Jinfan Thief who knew the truth, not only did not feel pity for Black Tiger's treatment, but they all felt extremely angry.
If Commander Gan Ning hadn't kicked the black tiger's body into the water, they would have chopped it into pieces and fed it to the fish!
…
Here in Wu County, there are soldiers riding war horses, galloping all the way west, heading towards Mianzhu.
This was the messenger sent by Zhang Liao, who was about to inform Uncle Liu Huang of the news before Gan Ning and his party arrived at Mianzhu.
So that Uncle Liu Huang would be prepared.
It can be said that Zhang Liao is still very careful in doing things...
…
"I don't know if those Jinfan thieves killed Zhang Liao..."
In a house in Bajun, someone said this.
"It's best to kill him.
These guys have gained quite a reputation, and they also have some abilities. It's hard to say that they will really accomplish great feats.
Moreover, we have thrown out such a big bait as Shu County Jun Cheng.
There’s no way he wouldn’t fight for it!”
"I'm always a little worried that something will go wrong. This Liu Cheng looks different from people like Liu Yan. I'm a little worried..."
A man who looked to be in his sixties said this.
"Just keep your heart in your stomach, this is not the first time we have done something like this in these years.
Which official who came to us did not compromise with us?
Liu Cheng will do the same and will not be an exception!"
As soon as the old man finished speaking, someone immediately laughed.
"That is, there is no need to worry at all. Whether things succeed or not are all done by the Jinfan thief and have nothing to do with us.
What if Liu Cheng was vaguely aware of this?
We are all a wealthy family in Yizhou.
It's so deep-rooted that he doesn't dare to really take action against us or do anything harmful to our bones.
If we really do this, this matter will not be the matter of our family, but the matter of all the aristocratic families in Yizhou.
If Liu Chengzhen dares to touch us, other wealthy families in Yizhou will definitely be frightened.
It is simply impossible for him, Liu Cheng, to live peacefully and build something here in Yizhou!
That man is not a fool, he can clearly weigh these relationships."
This was an older man speaking. He was nearly 70 years old and his hair had become thinning, but he seemed to be in good spirits.
This is a master who has always fought with the governor of Yizhou.
When several people in the room heard what he said, they all felt it was very reasonable.
Those who are worried, please relax.
People who are not worried in the first place become more confident.
At this moment, someone hurriedly came to report that the Jinfan thief had not killed Zhang Liao.
"A thief is indeed a thief, even if he is famous, he is still a thief. We cannot hope too much in repaying him.
However, this won't be a big loss for us.
It's nothing more than losing some money.
If these Jinfan thieves miss a hit, they will inevitably run away.
Go as far as Jingzhou or Jiangdong.
It has nothing to do with Yizhou anymore."
The man with thinning hair heard the report that Gan Ning had been defeated and immediately spoke out.
The voice is neither urgent nor slow, the words are well organized, the pearls of wisdom are in hand, and everything is under control.
The rest of the people in the room nodded in agreement.
The person who came to report was forcibly interrupted by the thin-haired man's analysis as soon as he started to speak. After seeing this, he endured it for a while and finally couldn't hold it in any longer.
"The Jinfan thief did not escape eastward, but went all the way upstream!
News came that Gan Ning wanted to go to Mianzhu to join Uncle Liu Huang!
Zhang Liao personally wrote a letter of recommendation as a guarantee!"
As soon as these words came out, the relaxed atmosphere in the room suddenly stopped!
Everyone was stunned.
Even the old man who held the pearl of wisdom and acted calmly and was ready to say something more to show his wisdom failed.
"What did you say?!"
He spoke urgently.
The person who informed the news quickly repeated these words after hearing this...
The person who broke the news exited, and the relaxed atmosphere in the room was gone forever.
A sudden turn of events broke their original plan.
Gan Ning's unreasonable behavior made them panic instantly and felt that the matter was difficult.
"Don't panic, drink some water and calm down first."
The man with thinning hair spoke.
Everyone seemed to be relatively easygoing. After he said these words, they all picked up their tea bowls and took a sip of water...
"Things are a little unexpected, but not too big. As I said before, our status is here to stay. It's impossible for Uncle Liu Huang not to be an ignorant person. He can't kill us in this matter.
hand.
The worst thing is that we find the right opportunity, spend some money, and give some benefits to Liu Cheng.
Can't hurt the muscles, can't move the bones.
Uncle Liu Huang doesn't dare to let us break our muscles!
After doing this, this matter will be revealed..."
People with thinning hair are the first to speak.
His words were recognized by everyone present.
"I think we can also find some people to unite and take this opportunity to show Uncle Liu Huang our attitude.
Let's show him a little bit of our power.
Let him know who really has the final say in Yizhou.
Let him stop when he sees fit, and don't take this opportunity to open his bloody mouth and try to bite the flesh out of us.
it's out of the question."
Someone else spoke.
“It is indeed necessary.
Ever since Uncle Liu Huang entered Yizhou, all of us have been very cooperative with him.
At this time, we also need to express our attitude.
Don't let him be too arrogant and domineering.
I feel like I can do whatever I want here in Yizhou..."
"We will split up immediately and contact the people we can contact urgently.
Liu Cheng has been in Yizhou for such a long time and he is always trying to affect our interests. There are many people who are dissatisfied with him.
If we speak out at this time, we will definitely get the support of many people!"
Everyone discussed quickly, and the more they discussed, the more peaceful they felt.
The more I feel that I am sure of winning if I wait for others.
The advantage is mine.
Even the most timid person no longer worries.
After everyone talked for a while, they dispersed and began to actively prepare for this matter.
Even at this time, they still felt that Jinfan thief Gan Ning's sudden move was quite good.
Otherwise, they would not have made such a big determination...
…
Here in Mianzhu City, Liu Cheng received an urgent letter from Zhang Liao.
After reading it, a smile appeared on his face.
Gan Ning Gan Xing Ba?
This person is also a fierce group of people!
In history, hundreds of horsemen robbed Boss Cao's camp.
Although the results achieved were far inferior to Zhang Liao Xiaoyaojin's dazzling performance against Sun Shiwan.
But it is enough to illustrate the bravery of this person.
What is even more difficult is that this Gan Ning is a general who is proficient in water warfare.
General, Liu Cheng's men are not in short supply now.
Zhao Yun, Zhang Liao, Xu Huang, Li Jin, Gao Shun, etc. are all worthy generals.
But not many people are proficient in water warfare, and Gan Ning's coming can just make up for his shortcomings in this area.
"What about those dishonest families? Should we take action now to catch them off guard?"
Xun You asked Liu Cheng.
Liu Cheng smiled: "Don't rush this matter, let the arrow fly for a while."
When Xun You heard Liu Cheng's words, his heart suddenly trembled.
Uncle Liu Huang is preparing for a big play!
"Uncle Emperor, if you do this, will Yizhou be in chaos? After all, it involves many things.
Moreover, the emperor's uncle will definitely attack other prefectures and counties in the future. If he is too ruthless in Yizhou at this time, I am afraid that if he attacks other prefectures and counties in the future, the aristocratic families there will resist desperately..."
Xun You looked at Liu Cheng, looking a little worried as he analyzed the pros and cons of the matter for Liu Cheng.
Liu Cheng smiled: "I'm afraid these people think so in their hearts, so they dare to act like this and cause trouble at this time.
Since they want to cause trouble, let them cause trouble.
I was still thinking before, if they didn't get up to cause trouble, how should I do it to them, but now I happened to come out.
Then let them have a good time.
These are like sores on the human body. They need to be ruthless and ruthless to cut off the rotten flesh before they can grow back quickly.
If these problems are not solved, even if the big man is really able to stand up again when the time comes, it will be faltering and will not last long.
Guangwu never set out to solve these problems at the beginning. After the world was stable, he tried to solve these problems again, but found that they could not be solved and could only compromise with them.
This ultimately resulted in this situation.
At this time, the war is raging, and I have brought a large number of troops here. These people are still like this. If I leave, won't it mean that things will turn upside down?
It's just a good opportunity to solve it to avoid trouble in the future.
As for whether Yizhou will be in chaos because of this...
I feel like it can't be chaotic.
These aristocratic families may seem extremely powerful, but after all they are only a minority.
As long as we can stabilize the people and have a large army at hand, there will be no chaos in Yizhou.
As for when the remaining states and counties are recovered in the future, the aristocratic families in those places will resist with all their strength...
Then let them resist.
If you resist and deal with them one by one, you will save yourself the trouble of searching for them everywhere.
After all the carrion has been removed, it will be much easier for me to paint on the paper with the wrong parts erased, just like Guanzhong..."
Liu Cheng's words made Xun You feel excited.
It's not that he hasn't considered the matter of aristocratic families, and it's not that he hasn't seen the problem.
Not only him, many people now and in the past have seen this problem.
However, no one has ever thought about rectifying this matter in a drastic and nationwide way.
It's not that no one has thought about it, but no one dares to do it.
Because there are so many things involved in this matter!
But it's much harder than attacking Yizhou and killing Liu Yan. It's much harder.
After so many years of development and growth, the aristocratic family has become deeply entrenched.
Even he, Xun You and Xun Gongda, thought he was talented and very courageous in doing things.
When I learned that there were aristocratic families in Yizhou who wanted to harm the emperor's uncle and wanted to jump up and resist, my inner thought was to deal with these rising families.
And take the opportunity to give the other aristocratic families a good beating.
Make them honest.
Solve this matter in time and don't let it escalate.
He felt that his method of handling it was already bold enough!
That's generous enough.
As a result, now, compared with Uncle Liu Huang, his so-called boldness is really stingy.
The two are not on the same level at all.
Just thinking about using a knife against aristocratic families across the country can scare many people away from even thinking about it again.
Even I just think about it in my heart and stop working hard on it.
After all, this involves too much and is too difficult.
As a result, Uncle Liu Huang said this very calmly now.
And are preparing to take action!!
It would be better not to compare. After actually comparing, I realized how big the gap is between myself and Uncle Liu Huang!
How big is the gap between the world and Uncle Liu Huang.
This gap is not in terms of wisdom, but in terms of mind, courage, and structure!
"The emperor's uncle has great ambitions and a broad mind, and his subordinates admire him!"
Xun You saluted Liu Cheng respectfully and said this.
What he said was true, and he really admired me.
Liu Cheng waved his hand to Xun You and said with a smile: "It's not that I have lofty ambitions, I just don't want to see the 400-year-old man fall apart, and I want him to go further.
These things cannot be accomplished by me alone, we need people like Gongda to work hard with me."
Xun You bowed and said: "Dare you not try your best to do the hard work of dogs and horses?"
After that, he thought for a while and said: "Uncle Emperor, I can't say that all the aristocratic families are cancerous. Many of them are also very good. I feel that I can't beat them all with a stick.
die……"
Liu Cheng nodded and said: "This is natural. Who is a friend and who is an enemy must be clearly distinguished.
No matter when, it is wrong to beat everyone to death with a stick, and it needs to be screened."
Xun You felt relieved after hearing this.
He was a little worried just now that Uncle Liu Huang would kill Hongyan and launch an indiscriminate attack on the wealthy family.
Now it seems that this matter will not happen. Uncle Liu Huang has a clear understanding of these things.
Immediately sit down and discuss the next steps with Liu Cheng...
…
The wind blew the brocade sails, and the ship sailed upstream.
Gan Ning and his party came all the way to Shu County and approached Chengdu...
Looking at the ripe rice on both sides of the river and the farmers working hard to harvest the rice, Gan Ning felt a little complicated.
Especially when I thought about how I was going to meet Uncle Liu Huang, I felt even more complicated.
Wondering what that would be like.
Will Uncle Liu Huang be prejudiced against him because of his origin?
Intimidating yourself?
Will I not reuse myself in the future...
In the past, Gan Ning didn't think about who he could turn to to make a living, and Gan Ning didn't think about how this matter would turn out.
At this time, I made up my mind to come to Uncle Liu Huang, but I thought too much and became worried about gains and losses...
While the Jin Sailboat was still in the river, Gan Ning and others saw dozens of soldiers holding flags at the ferry.
Just when they were a little surprised and confused, they heard someone among the soldiers and horses speaking loudly and shouting at them:
“The person on the boat is Gan Ning and Gan Xingba?!
We have been waiting here for a long time on the orders of the Emperor's uncle."
When Gan Ning heard this, he immediately felt relieved.
“Commander, arrange your appearance!
Uncle Liu Huang actually sent people to come to such a far place to greet him!"
The Water Monkey and other Jinfan thieves were full of joy and felt that their faces were bright.
"Let's go to the shore and board the ship quickly!"
Gan Ning said.
…
"I am able to achieve victory, just like Emperor Gaozu achieved Fan Kuai!!"
Ten miles away from Mianzhu City, Liu Cheng held Gan Ning's hands tightly and said sincerely...
