It rained heavily, and big raindrops fell on the river, causing countless splashes.
As the heavy rain fell, the water became turbulent. The boat was sailing in the middle of the river, and it was just precarious. It could be swallowed by the rapid river water at any time. However, a small boat on the river was as steady as sticky candy.
The water on the river rose and fell with the rolling of the river. It was not overturned by the big waves because of the strong current.
Under the dark night, the river was pitch black. Except for the faint red light coming from the cabin of the warship, there were no other sources of fire. The entire warship was surrounded by darkness.
On the warship, more than ten soldiers on night watch had disappeared long ago. They returned to the cabin and hid in the warm quilt.
It's very cool in such heavy rain weather, and sleeping is simply a pleasure.
Therefore, no soldiers were willing to go out to patrol at night. In addition, the warships were docked in the middle of the river, and there was heavy rain and bad weather. It was impossible to be attacked. In this situation, soldiers on land could not attack.
At the center of the river, the water thieves on the river had no warships, and it was very easy to capsize in the turbulent current. Therefore, the vigilance of all warships was very low, and there was no sense of crisis.
At this time, the water on the river was misty, and the sky and the earth were dark.
A small boat gradually approached the large warship without the Yizhou soldiers noticing.
On the small boat, on the pointed prow, stood a young man with a beard. He was tall and muscular, and his upper body was naked. The scars that could be seen everywhere on his body were shocking.
Muscles bulged on his bare arms, and green veins wriggled like earthworms all over his arms. Raindrops flowed down from his body and gathered into small streams. The young man's lower body was wearing a pair of shorts, which were already wet from the rain.
, he reached out and wiped the rain off his face, staring at the silent warships with a ferocious smile on his face.
This person is none other than Gan Ning who left the Prefect's Mansion.
Gan Ning stood on the bow of the boat, holding a seven-foot-long sharp sword in his hand. The back of the sword was very thick, and there were nine holes on the back of the sword. There were nine iron rings in the holes. The long sword was swung
When the iron ring collides with the hole on the back of the knife, a ding-ding-ding sound will be made immediately.
This sword is Gan Ning's sidearm, the Hengjiang Dao.
"Crack!"
Gan Ning stuck a cross-river knife in the bow of the boat and looked at the rapid river flow with eager eyes. As the boat kept moving forward, it finally docked at the edge of the large warship.
At this time, the quarrel on the large warship had already ended. Wu Yi and Fei Guan joined forces and successfully suppressed Dong He, delaying the march to Nanzheng tomorrow until the heavy rain stopped. Regardless of Liu Yan's order
Anyway, both of them have reasons to stay on the river, and they will not be able to accept military orders from abroad, which makes them dare to stay on the river and not move forward.
Wu Yi and Fei Guan won, and the meeting dispersed.
At this time, Wu Yi was finally able to relax and sleep without worrying about the army attacking Nanzheng.
Because of this, the defense was lax. Gan Ning led a hundred Jinfan'erlang to quietly approach the large warship, but was still not discovered.
Gan Ning stood on the bow of the boat, looking at the fast-flowing river without any movement for a long time, with a solemn expression on his face.
Although the current heavy rain has made the water vapor on the river hazy, making it impossible to see the surrounding situation clearly, it has provided Gan Ning with an advantage in leading a hundred people. However, there are advantages and disadvantages. The bad weather has also created a problem for Gan Ning.
Facing the downpour, how to save one's life in the fast-flowing river is also a problem.
"Ta! Ta!..."
Gan Ning paced back and forth on the bow of the ship with his hands behind his back.
His steps were steady, and he stepped on the beach with one foot, making a clicking sound.
Xiaoba stood nearby and saw the anxious look on Gan Ning's face, and there was also a look of worry on his face.
He wanted to say something to comfort Gan Ning, but he didn't know where to start. He could only cast his gaze on the rushing river and wait for news quietly. His eyes were wide open, staring at the splashing water.
The river water, praying secretly in the heart. Suddenly, the water splashed beside the boat, and a huge head emerged. When Xiaoba saw this, he was overjoyed and said happily: "I'm back, I'm back!"
This guy was excited for a moment, and his voice seemed abrupt and a little loud.
Fortunately, large warships do not have soldiers on night watch, otherwise they would be easily discovered.
Gan Ning turned around and glared at Xiaoba, then squatted down and reached out to pull up the man with his head sticking out of the river.
"General!"
Like Gan Ning, the man who came up was also naked from the waist up. This man also had a strong back and bulging muscles, revealing a strong and powerful chest. He cupped his hands and bowed to Gan Ning, then took a deep breath to calm down his nervousness.
Breathing, following this man, several more heads emerged from the water around the boat. Not long after, nine more strong men stretched out their hands from the river and were quickly pulled onto the boat by the people on the boat.
Everyone on the warship was topless, wearing only shorts.
The one hundred people on this boat were all Gan Ning's confidants, and they all knew about Gan Ning's affairs.
This time Gan Ning returned to Nanzheng County and paid a visit to Wang Can. He actually received the Jinfanying banner specially made by Wang Can, and Gan Ning was named General Hengjiang and commanded all the naval forces. It was really exciting.
Such a proud thing made Gan Ning's confidants excited. When Gan Ning pretended to lose to Pei Yuanshao and left sadly, these people still had some complaints in their hearts, but now they are very happy. Gan Ning's promotion means that they
The status of people has also risen with the tide. It is said that one person ascends to heaven, and chickens and dogs achieve enlightenment. This is the truth.
The former water thief turned into a general.
This kind of thing was something I didn't dare to think about before, but now it has become a reality.
Changes in the world are so unpredictable.
Not long after, ten more strong men appeared on the warship, who had just emerged from the river. The ten men stood in a row one after another. Gan Ning took stock and saw that no one was left behind, and he felt relieved.
Swimming underwater in such bad weather undoubtedly made it more difficult, and Gan Ning was worried about this person. Fortunately, they were all good in the water, and no one was hurt.
Gan Ning looked at the first person who returned to the boat and asked, "How is the investigation going?"
The man cupped his hands and replied: "General, there are six warships in the area I am exploring, all of which are small warships."
Gan Ning looked at the second person and waved his hand for them to answer in turn.
The second strong man who returned to the boat raised his hands and said: "Report to the general, there are eight warships in the place I inspected, two medium-sized warships, and six small warships."
The third said: "There are five warships in the area I explored, all of which are small warships."
The fourth said: "The rest of the warships I inspected include three warships, two medium-sized warships, and one small warship."
…
Ten people all made reports in turn.
After Gan Ning listened, he added up the numbers reported by each person, and finally got the number of all warships. Since ten people dived to explore the information, each person was responsible for one area, and there were no duplicate areas.
By counting the warships, we can clearly detect the warships of Liu Yan's army, and we can also roughly infer from the number of warships how many soldiers there are in this army.
However, Gan Ning felt that no matter how large the army was, it was a dead end.
The mere fact that there is no warning when there is heavy rain is enough to prove that the leading general does not know the art of war.
Gan Ning despised the general who commanded the Yizhou Army, but he took this action very seriously.
There is no other reason, because this time to destroy Liu Yan's army is a task assigned by Wang Can personally, and it is also the first time Gan Ning accepts Wang Can's task. Therefore, Gan Ning must do a good job, complete the task successfully, and prove that
His ability. Gan Ning planned the whole process very carefully. He did not immediately send people to destroy the warship as soon as he rushed up. Instead, he was cautious and sent people to investigate the situation first.
The total number of warships being explored by ten people made Gan Ning gasp.
Sixty warships!
What kind of concept is this? A general large warship can accommodate more than two thousand people. The largest warship of Wu in the Three Kingdoms is five stories high and can accommodate more than three thousand people. Of course, Liu Yanshui's army is not large, and he has no
With enough craftsmen, it is impossible to own such a super large warship. At most, it can only accommodate more than 2,000 people, and there is only one warship.
Compared with large warships, medium-sized warships are far inferior, and can only accommodate more than 800 people. Small warships are even worse, and can only accommodate more than 400 people. When all warships are counted, Liu Yan's army is about three
Forty thousand people, this is a quite terrifying figure. If they go straight to Nanzheng after landing, it will definitely affect Wang Can's overall situation.
"General, the number of warships has been calculated, what should we do now?" Xiaoba stood aside and asked softly.
Gan Ning stared at the large warship in front of him, squinting his eyes slightly and thinking carefully.
After a moment of silence, Gan Ning said: "We want to scuttle sixty warships, but there are only more than a hundred people, which is a bit small. Fortunately, everyone is proficient in water and are good in the water, so they can barely cope with the current situation."
"The leader of Liu Yan's army occupies the only large warship. This large ship needs more people. Use five people to scuttle the large warship and follow me. The remaining people will be used to scuttle the other warships.
, but try to satisfy two people on medium-sized warships and one person on small warships. When doing work, no matter who it is, as long as they complete their own tasks, they immediately help others scuttle the surrounding warships and strive to complete it in the shortest time.
Task."
Gan Ning looked at Xiaoba and ordered: "Xiaoba, you are responsible for allocating the number of people, hurry up."
"promise!"
Xiaoba nodded in response and immediately called the people on the boat to stand together and assign tasks. Except for the five people led by Gan Ning, the rest had to dig through the warship. The task was quite arduous.
A quarter of an hour later, Xiaoba assigned everyone.
He glanced at the boat at his feet, with a hint of worry in his eyes, and said: "General, we are going to perform a mission, what will happen to our boat? With such a big wind and waves, if a big wave comes, the boat will be overturned, and the current is very fast.
, and the boat is unguarded, so it can easily be washed away!"
Gan Ning said angrily: "Won't you tie it to the warship and pick it up again after you complete the mission?"
"Ah, yes!"
Xiao Bamei smiled brightly and showed a smile.
Gan Ning shook his head and smiled, then took a deep breath and ordered: "Act!" As soon as he finished speaking, the naked men standing on the boat picked up the chisels and hammers used to drill through the warships, and jumped up.
Jumping into the rushing river. Each of these people were like white stripes in the waves, swimming in the water, tumbling wantonly in the river. They were not affected by the rushing water and swam quickly to the designated warship.
Xiaoba leaned the boat against the edge of the warship, tied it up, and led the people to jump into the river.
Gan Ning took a deep breath and shouted: "Let's go!" Immediately, Gan Ning took the tool and jumped into the cold river. The five strong men following Gan Ning looked at each other and grinned.
He laughed, picked up his tools and jumped into the river. A group of six people, led by Gan Ning, swam to the bottom of the big ship.
At this time, an empty boat was swaying on the river with no one in it.
"Crack!"
On the splashing river surface, a bolt of lightning struck, illuminating the dark river surface.
Immediately, rumbling thunder sounded.
The thunder sounded like thousands of drums roaring in unison, with a powerful and domineering momentum, as if the soldiers were vigorously waving their drumsticks and beating the war drums to encourage Gan Ning who was diving into the river. However, although the thunder was loud,
, but did not wake up Wu Yi and his army who had fallen asleep.
The crisis is coming, but all the soldiers are sleeping.
