In the study, Wang Can was sitting on the main seat, with a hint of apology on his handsome face.
Below, sitting on his knees was a young and strong man wearing brocade clothes.
This young man has a strong body, thick eyebrows and big eyes, a pair of tiger eyes with twinkling eyes, a high nose bridge, and thick beards under his chin that are as thick as steel needles. Even though the young man is sitting upright on his knees, with his hands on his thighs and sitting upright, there is still a hint of
He has a wild nature, but when facing Wang Can, he is humble and respectful.
Wang Can took a deep breath and said, "Xingba, I've wronged you!"
Jinfan thief Gan Ning, Gan Xingba.
This person was Gan Ning, who pretended to be defeated by Pei Yuanshao. That day Gan Ning left Nanzheng and returned to the Yangtze River. After Gan Ning left, he led eight hundred brocade sail thieves to wreak havoc on the Yangtze River, greatly expanding his strength. At the same time, because of the
With Wang Can's financial support, the strength of the Gan-Ning naval forces also expanded rapidly. In a short period of time, they had dominated the Yangtze River and became the dominant force in the Yangtze River.
Gan Ning cupped his hands and said: "Serving the Lord, I would rather not make progress and suffer hardship, but would rather be happy with it."
In fact, Gan Ning did live a moist and free life.
Jinfan thieves roamed the Yangtze River. Whether it was Sun Jian, the governor of Changsha, or Liu Biao, the herdsman of Jingzhou, as long as they were on the Yangtze River, they all had to look at Gan Ning's face. Today's Gan Ning is no longer a Jinfan thief who owns a few small boats to plunder.
, but the well-deserved overlord on the river. On the Yangtze River, the Jinfan thieves came and went like the wind, without restraint, and they only needed to continuously expand their strength. It can be said that Gan Ning's life was simply a fairy life, which is enviable.
Wang Can asked again: "Xingba, what is the situation of the navy now?"
Mentioning the navy under his command, Gan Ning's bright eyes suddenly shone with excitement on his face.
"My lord, today, Hanzhong's navy has undergone earth-shaking changes. There are three large warships, five medium-sized warships, ten small warships, and countless other warships and warships. At the same time, eight hundred navy
It has also become a navy army of five thousand. Although the number of soldiers in the navy is still a little small, these five thousand people are all good in the water and are very powerful."
Gan Ning's thick hands kept waving, as if he was pointing out the country, swaying with ink, and quite coquettish.
Wang Can looked at Gan Ning's expression with a look of relief on his face.
Now Gan Ning, even though he is wild, still has the momentum that a superior person should have. This is the general who commands the momentum of the navy. Wang Canxiao said: "To promote hegemony, soldiers are more valuable than more. The navy needs absolute strength."
Elites. We are still in Hanzhong, and the navy cannot use them for the time being. Therefore, you still have enough time to develop the navy and train more elites for future use."
Gan Ning nodded and said: "Don't worry, my lord, the general will definitely train more elite navy troops."
Wang Can nodded with satisfaction and talked to Gan Ning about normal things.
For a time, the study room was filled with laughter and laughter. The two of them were laughing and chatting happily.
For about half an hour, Wang Can didn't ask Gan Ning what happened when he returned to Hanzhong? Because as a superior, as a leader, Wang Can had to communicate with Gan Ning to make Gan Ning feel that what he was doing was
This is the truth that Wang Can has gradually realized since he became the prefect of Hanzhong.
A person in a superior position should not only have a high official position, but also be able to manipulate people vertically and horizontally and win the hearts of their subordinates.
In the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Zhao Yun made seven entries and seven exits from Changbanpo to rescue the young master Liu Chan and return to Liu Bei.
At this time, Liu Bei was very happy to see that his only son was safe and sound.
However, Liu Bei made a throwing action and threw Liu Chan out, calling him a brat and almost losing one of his generals. Maybe Liu Bei did this for show, but it conveyed a message.
He just valued Zhao Yun and felt that Zhao Yun was more important to him than his son.
Just imagine how Zhao Yun would feel when he saw Liu Bei's actions and heard Liu Bei's words. Of course he was very excited. Wang Can and Gan Ning talked about their daily life and ordinary things, just to bring the relationship closer between the two, making Gan Ning
Ning could follow him more wholeheartedly.
After the two talked for a while, Wang Can asked: "Xingba, what's the important thing for you to return to Hanzhong this time?"
Gan Ning cupped his hands and said: "Reporting to my lord, Ning returned to Hanzhong. Originally he only had one thing to do, but he encountered something on the Yangtze River, so he has two things to report to his lord."
Wang Can raised his eyebrows and said, "Please tell me in detail."
Hearing this, Gan Ning bowed slightly, picked up the package beside him, and handed it to Wang Can respectfully.
"Xingba, what is this?"
"My lord, you will know it at a glance."
Wang Can smiled and took the package handed over by Gan Ning and placed it on the desk.
When he opened the ribbon on the package and spread it out, his eyes widened and his mouth opened wide. It took a while before Wang Can reacted. At this moment, Wang Can had a very solemn look on his face, because there was something on the desk
If you don't pay attention to things, it will bring disasters of death and annihilation, so you must be careful.
Wang Can asked: "Xingba, the jade seal was taken away by Sun Jian, how come it is in your hands?"
The object on the desk is the jade seal.
This jade seal was what Gan Ning snatched from Sun Jian.
Gan Ning smiled and said: "My lord, I was leading the Jinfan Army on the Yangtze River when I suddenly encountered Sun Jian who had fled from Jingzhou to the Yangtze River and was transported back to Changsha. At that time, the news that Sun Jian had obtained the Jade Seal spread throughout Jingzhou, and finally General
He also heard about it, so he snatched the jade seal from Sun Jian and let Sun Jian and his family go."
Wang Can looked surprised and asked again: "How come there is no news about your robbery of the jade seal?"
Hearing this, Gan Ning also showed a look of admiration on his face and said: "Sun Jian can be considered a man, because at the end of the day, he was spared his life, but he secretly concealed the jade seal and did not make it public. That's right.
Because of this, no one knew about it after the general obtained the jade seal."
After hearing this, Wang Can frowned slightly.
After a moment of silence, Wang Can said with a smile: "Xingba, I don't think it's because Sun Jian kept silent, but because he wanted Xingba to submit to him."
Gan Ning nodded and said: "My lord knows things like a god, Ning admires him. Sun Jian indeed sent people to visit the general several times, trying to persuade the general to submit to him, but he was sent away by the general Xu and Shewei."
"Well done!" Wang Can praised and said: "As long as you don't surrender for one day, Sun Jian will not make it public, because Sun Jian still has hope and thinks that if you surrender to him, the jade seal will be in his hands again.
." At this point, Wang Can paused and asked: "Xingba, apart from the Yuxi matter, what else did you discover?"
While talking, Wang Can wrapped the jade seal again.
Now, it is not time for the jade seal to be exposed to the light, so it can only be hidden privately.
One day, this will be the weapon in Wang Can's hand.
Gan Ning pursed his lips, with a solemn look on his face, and said: "At the end of the day, I will return to Nanzheng by boat. On the Yangtze River, I encountered many warships with flags with the character Liu. Although the warships are not big, they are more numerous.
Moreover, there are many soldiers wearing Yizhou Army uniforms. These soldiers have been stationed on the river and have not moved for a long time. I don’t know why?”
When Wang Can heard this, he stood up suddenly.
"Hahaha... Okay, okay, Xingba is really my lucky general!"
Wang Can laughed three times and clapped his hands and said: "Liu Yan sent three armies to attack Hanzhong. One of them started from Baocheng and was defeated by me; the other attacked from Nanjiang County, but Deng Zheng killed General Pang Xi.
The rest of the army, such as the young general Gao Pei and the young general Yang Huai, are still hanging on and there is nothing to worry about. In the past, Gongda had predicted that Liu Yan might have another large army, but unfortunately it had not been discovered. Now that Xingba encountered it, it was really a coincidence.
If you don’t bless Liu Yan, God bless Hanzhong.”
After Gan Ning heard this, a light suddenly flashed in his eyes.
He rolled his eyes and asked: "My lord, since it is Liu Yan's army, the last general will return to the Yangtze River, lead the Jinfan navy, and destroy all Liu Yan's army stationed on the river."
As he spoke, he displayed the aura of an overlord on the river.
Wang Can thought for a moment, then asked: "Xingba, how many days will it take for you to launch an attack after you return?"
Gan Ning made an estimate, then raised four fingers and said: "My lord, I will return to the Yangtze River and lead the army to attack. I'm afraid it will take four days before we can launch the attack."
"Four days?"
Wang Can shook his head slightly and said: "It's too long. It can't be delayed for so long. After four days, I'm afraid all Liu Yan's army has landed and is attacking Nanzheng. When you arrive with the army, you can only attack
Sinking some empty ships will not pose much of a threat to the rest of the army ashore."
Gan Ning spread his hands and said helplessly: "But the general returned with only more than a hundred people. Liu Yan's army has dozens of warships and tens of thousands of people. How can he defeat so many ships?"
Having said this, Gan Ning suddenly fell silent.
After a while, Wang Can and Gan Ning said at the same time: "Yes!"
Both of them had bright eyes. Gan Ning asked: "My lord, what can you do?"
Wang Can picked up a writing brush from the desk, handed it to Gan Ning, and said, "Let's write down our respective methods on the palm of our hands to see if the methods are the same."
After finishing speaking, Wang Can wrote two words on the palm of his hand. After Gan Ning took the brush, he also wrote two words. The two looked at each other and smiled, then spread their palms at the same time, and saw Wang Can's hand writing "Chisel"
The word "ship" and the word "water ghost" were written in Gan Ning's hand. They are two different words, but they both adopt the same method, sending water ghosts to penetrate the big ship. The soldiers on the ship are not familiar with water, so they naturally lose it.
combat effectiveness.
Gan Ning stood up and bowed, "My lord, I will retire now."
After saying this, Gan Ning was about to leave.
But Wang Can stood up and said, "Wait a moment, I have something to give you." As he spoke, Wang Can walked outside the study and gave a few orders, and soldiers went to carry out the order.
Not long after, the soldier came back outside the study and handed Wang Can a flag and a seal ribbon. Wang Can took the flag and seal ribbon and handed them to Gan Ning and said, "You pretended to be defeated by Pei Yuanshao, and you have been leading the troops outside.
I did not return to Nanzheng, and I was missing you when I was appointed general. However, I have prepared it for you. From today on, the navy you command will be called "Jinfan Camp", and your official title will be General Hengjiang, who will guard it for me.
Take the Yangtze River as your own."
As he spoke, Wang Can showed his boundless ambition.
The Yangtze River runs from east to west. It is not easy to claim the Yangtze River as your own, but it is also challenging.
"promise!"
Gan Ning cupped his fists and shouted: "My lord, please rest assured, I will definitely live up to my lord's high expectations."
Gan Ning took over the banner of the Jinfan Army and the seal ribbon from Wang Can's hand, with red eyes and a moved look on his face. He pretended to be defeated and returned to the Yangtze River to continue his thief career, but Wang Can did not forget him.
Thinking about him shows that Wang Can really appreciates him. Gan Ning wrapped up the flag, put the seal ribbon into his arms, took a deep breath, bowed to Wang Can, and put the hat on his back on his head.
Then quietly left the prefect's mansion.
Come without a trace, go without a trace.
After Gan Ning handed the jade seal to Wang Can, he left Nanzheng and went straight to Liu Yan's warship.
