Regardless of the division of troops into three routes, there were only two cities on the Zhangshui line that Gan Ning took. In fact, one of them was the county seat of Hejian County, with the largest city and the most troops.
We boarded the river boat that had been prepared and headed upstream from the Zhang River. We traveled day and night, covering a distance of more than a hundred miles. In just one day, we reached the vicinity of Chengping along the river highway.
The capital was still some distance away from Zhangshui, but it didn't matter. He ordered Yan Yu, who had been with him since the days of the Jinfan Thieves, to lead his troops to follow him. Gan Ning himself led two hundred elite men selected from the army and headed directly towards
Chengping rushed away.
There were more than two hundred people scattered outside the city, which didn't seem too much at all. It didn't attract any ideas at all. When approaching the city gate, Gan Ning pulled out his spear and halberd and put them together with a 'click' sound. He exerted force with his legs and pulled out an afterimage.
He rushed up recklessly.
The soldiers at the city gate rushed through the middle before they could react. With a swing of their halberds, more than a dozen heads flew high into the sky accompanied by blood.
Looking at Gan Ning again, Guan Duru rushed out of the city gate and directly stood up from the ground, rushing towards the government office in the center of the city in the air.
There is a saying that to capture a thief, capture the king first. In his opinion, the head of a county in Chengping City was a thief. He ran wildly through the air. At such a speed, there was no chance for anyone to react. He released his powerful energy.
If a general of this level is sincere and shameless, he will be really hard to guard against.
After all, the whole city cannot be shrouded in clouds all year round.
"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!"
Gan Ning deliberately landed heavily on the roof of the government office, crushing a big hole in the government office. Along with the smoke and dust raised by the fallen wood chips and tiles, Gan Ning fell to the ground with a bang.
"Ahem, cough..." Damn it, I accidentally lost it, it's so choking...hurry out from the smoke.
Suddenly, someone fell from the world and smashed the roof into pieces. Everyone in the government office looked at Gan Ning who rushed out, and for a moment they didn't know how to react.
"Which one is the county captain?" Gan Ning glanced at the crowd.
"Ah, I am!" One person replied subconsciously. Before he could finish his words, he saw Gan Ning hit the halberd with his hand, and a stream of qi cut through the air and flew towards him. He didn't even have a chance to react before he saw Gan Ning hit the halberd.
Passed up.
what's the situation?
The head was flying in the air, still thinking about this problem in his mind, and then he lost consciousness.
"ah!!!!"
Suddenly someone was hit, and suddenly the county captain died, and the remaining people in the government office screamed subconsciously.
"Shut up." Gan Ning stomped the halberd in his hand towards the ground, causing the green bricks on the ground to shatter within a few meters around him.
"..." The mansion immediately fell into silence, with only the tinkling sounds of scattered tiles falling from the roof.
"This is Gan Ning, Gan Xingba, Commander-in-Chief of the Navy, under the command of Xuande Gong Liu Bei. Now, you have been captured. Surrender or die!" Only one of him came in. Two hundred elites were just to ensure that the city gate was open. Three thousand
It would take a while before the army could enter the city. Before that, it would be best for him to force these guys to surrender.
"ah?"
From the county magistrate to the county officials, everyone looked like they had seen a ghost. Why did Liu Bei's navy commander suddenly fall from the world, and they were forced to choose between surrender or death?
What happened in just one minute was so fast that these guys couldn't keep up.
If it weren't for the county captain's head lying on the ground and the headless corpse still bleeding, reminding them that all this was real, they would have thought this was a daydream.
"No, wait a minute, you are really Liu Bei... Oh, no, you are the naval commander of Duke Xuande?" It was too fantasy. The head of a county was more or less a reputable scholar, so he still wanted to confirm.
Gan Ning knew these scholars very well. Once he opened the conversation with them, he could chat with you forever. He raised his halberd in his hand and pointed it at the county magistrate. A strong energy burst out of his body, and the murderous aura made it difficult for the other party to breathe.
"Surrender, or die!"
"Surrender!" The county magistrate replied simply and neatly, as if it would be over if you said no so nicely.
It is a good idea that a good man will not suffer the immediate consequences. Now that no one understands what is going on, it is naturally impossible for him to lose his life in such a place for no reason.
There has been peace for more than two years, and although the shadow of the war has not been forgotten, this place is located in the heart of the country, so there is no way to be prepared.
The soldiers guarding the city gate had just been taken away by Gan Ning. They were originally planning to guard the city gate with two hundred guards until Yan Yu came in with a large force, but did not encounter a single defender.
These county soldiers had no fighting spirit. The county captain had no head and no one to lead them. They were hiding and running. When Gan Ning tried to gather the prisoners, he couldn't find many of them.
It wasn't until the whole city was closed that the wealthy families in the city knew that Liu Bei's army had invaded and the city was lost. They all looked confused and no better than the county magistrate.
Under Gan Ning's pressure, the county magistrate gathered all the wealthy families in the city. When facing everyone, Gan Ning's first words were, "Yuan Shao is finished!"
"Six armies, including Gongsun Zan, Lu Bu, Zhang Ji and Xuande Gong, with a total of 500,000 troops, surrounded and suppressed Yuan Shao!"
This is not called bragging. How can it be called bragging about leading troops and generals? This is called soldiers who never tire of deceit.
The most important thing is that everyone here really believes that the princes have a total of 500,000 troops?
Under normal circumstances, it seems that it is not much, but a bit less.
The last time Yuan Shao fought against Gongsun Zan alone, both sides deployed 300,000 troops.
The most important thing is that now that the city has been destroyed is right in front of you, you can't believe it even if you don't believe it.
In fact, Gan Ning was scratching his head at this moment, how to deal with these guys?
You definitely can't kill them all. This is different from the county captain. He is a military attache. During the war, he kills at will, but he slaughters the local wealthy families for no reason. Not to mention him, even Liu Bei cannot shoulder this responsibility, but he just lets it go.
, it’s not a thing!
With a heartless stamp of his feet, Gan Ning continued: "I am the naval commander-in-chief Gan Ning and Gan Xingba under Xuande Gong's account. My mission is to lead troops to sweep across Hejian County. Now, I don't have time to talk nonsense with you. Listen.
Seeing is believing, everyone is walking with me all night, aiming for Lecheng. When we arrive at Lecheng tomorrow, there will be plenty of time for you to rest!"
After saying that, Gan Ning paid no attention to the confused heads of the families, and his personal guards rushed forward like wolves and tigers.
These family heads didn't have time to say a word from beginning to end. They were escorted out of the city and directly got on the boat and went upstream. As for reasoning with the soldiers in custody, there was no such thing as reasoning.
The more high-ranking these people are, the more they understand that they must tell people of similar status that before they see Gan Ning again, even if they say that the sky is full of flowers and golden lotuses are blooming, these soldiers will not dare to let them go.
