Chapter 91

With every defeat in Zhang Lu's army, the hearts of the people in the army became more and more panic.

Those civil servants and schools who were originally entangled or had difficulties were inevitably even more shaken. Whenever they encountered difficulties, there would be endless rumors.

This day is another day to raise military rations for each battalion.

In the county government office of Dangqu County, several scheming officials took advantage of the time they were free to send out a wave of officers who received food and secretly complained:

"Then Gan Ning is really a bandit. Our army is so tired, and the military supplies are so tight. He even used Shu brocade as a cable to tie his own ship, and he also asked for wine and meat to serve him every time. The Shijun was the same. There was only three counties left. What hard to support? The military supplies really couldn't be raised."

"Oh, that's not true, but you must not complain in front of outsiders. Who told Gan Ning to fight? Shi Jun can get his help? I heard that it is for Liu Enjun's sake. Gan Ning hates others' bad words and looks down on him.

Have you heard of it? After the prefect of Ba County in the court used him to kill his political enemies, he actually despised Gan Ning as a tool. When he found out, he killed the employer who hired the murderer! Such a murderer would be vengeful! Hey, that wasn't Gan Ning's need to lead the army, stop talking about it."

Gan Ning is still very sensitive in this regard because of his poor background. He is like a poor student in society who always has the intuition of others making small reports or making hounds when he goes to a teacher.

Looking at the insincere flattering smile of Ji Li when he was handling the procedures, Gan Ning snorted coldly in his heart and scolded him suddenly: "What were you talking about just now?"

Ji Li was shocked and smiled with a humble expression: "It's nothing... We just saw the general, not feeling that if General Gan was here the day before yesterday, how could Zhang Fei intercept the Jiang Jiang and cut off the retreat of Yan Jianshe's army, causing a crushing defeat? There is really no general everywhere."

On the one hand, this is to praise Gan Ning, and on the other hand, it is also to secretly complain that Gan Ning did not arrive in time, which is very consistent with their position, so Gan Ning believed it and could not have an attack. It was just an embarrassing refutation:

"Military formation matters! What do you know? If Guan Yu hadn't attacked Mengtouzhai and Dangshizhai with a navy on the southern front four days ago, I would have to rush back Guan Yu? Even if I fight the world's number one, I will not be able to do anything. How can I take into account the river surface of the three hundred miles north and south? Who made Zhang Lu's command have no other generals who can guard it separately? Besides, I am not the best in the world's number one in the water battle.

But don't worry! I've asked the prisoners a long time ago that Liu Bei's generals were the strongest in the water battle. As for Zhang Fei, he didn't know anything about water battles. That day, he took advantage of me on the southern line and was bullied by him. There was no one in Hanchang! If he dared to come to me in the future, I would ask him to feed the fish!"

After saying this, the guy who complained about him had to stop.

Gan Ning snorted coldly in his heart. He also knew that everyone had complained about his debauchery, but what do these shameless people know?

A real man should leave his name in history and make a fortune in the world!

Although Gan Xingba did not read much, he still heard a lot of stories about the ancient sages. The son of the seventy-two sages of Confucius was the warrior and hero that Gan Ning admired.

That Zilu is "a gentleman will die, and he will inevitably be crowned." When he was an official in the Wei State, he was surrounded and killed by the Wei State. He was shot down by the enemy before his death. He had to pick it up and put it on. During the process of wearing the hat, he was chopped into a crust.

This is what demeanor! The hat cannot fall off even if you die in battle, and the hairstyle cannot be messed up!

How can you be embarrassed when you are stumbling on the road?

But those slutty officials didn't understand anything, and they didn't have the awareness of "the more they died, the more they should have a sense of ritual in life, and the more handsome they should wear clothes."

I really can't talk together.

Thinking of the depression, Gan Ning took out a jade ring and rubbed it a few times: "Oh, Ah Xi, you should remarry well in the future. I will leave you the money, which will be enough for you to have a good meal and drink for the rest of your life, and we will not lose our worries. When Ah Gui grows up, he will know that his father has never been embarrassed for a lifetime."

He is already twenty-one years old, and he is really old and can't help himself. How great would he be to wander around the world before he was nineteen years old?

But a maid who was playing casually accidentally had something wrong with him, leaving him with a two-year-old son. He had to consider slowly going ashore and doing things for the government in the past two years, but he couldn't stand being used as a tool for others. Several bad things happened today.

If you take Gan Ning’s scammers into reality, you can produce a Hong Kong movie series in which the gangster wants to wash his hands after having a wife and son.

...

Gan Ning was waiting for the last battle with a drunken hairstyle, but he was still waiting for the last battle.

Two days later, Liu Bei's army digested the results of the Hanchang Battle and managed the Hanchang County, and had already decided to manage the Anmin. They transported the military rations more than 100 miles in advance to build a forward base camp.

Then, Zhang Fei used the old routine to prepare to make another attack on Dangqu County as usual.

"Report! Zhang Fei led his army to attack again, Xu Huang led the land route, Zhang Fei and Zhou Tai led the water route, less than ten miles away from our army's village, the army king ordered his soldiers to line up to attack, and delayed the enemy's troops in the narrow valley! Please lead the warships to fight immediately!"

"It's Xu Huang who leads the land route again, Zhang Fei, and Zhou Tai who leads the water route? Isn't that exactly the same as capturing Yan Pu's battle? He also wants to drag the army head-on and land on the flanks and cut off the front and rear troops. This is too underestimating me, Gan Ning. I deserve to die!"

Gan Ning felt the great humiliation of being ignored, and he was not taken seriously.

OK! Look at me defeating Guan Yu first, then Zhang Fei!

"Get the weapons and untie the cables!" Gan Ning shouted loudly.

The horseman next to him immediately handed over an iron halberd for one hand, similar to the weapon used by Dian Wei. However, Gan Ning used not a double halberd, but a halberd and a shield, and another shackle was inserted at his waist to serve as a backup weapon.

The flail is a hammer head, but there is a semi-soft weapon connected by iron chains in the middle, and the structure is similar to that of a nunchaku.

This weapon is beneficial to break the shield when encountering a strong enemy with a shield, and also facilitates to bypass the enemy's block when swinging forcefully. When Gan Ning jumped to the side, he relied on the shackle to jump and chop more than once. When the enemy general clearly blocked the hammer stick, he relied on the power of throwing the hammer head out with the soft iron chain and smashed the enemy to death.

After Gan Ning's weapon was in hand, he waved his halberd and cut off the Shu brocade used for cables like a sickle.

Half of the broken Shu brocade was still wrapped around the stake on the bow of the ship, looking like a bow fluttering in the wind.

...

"Look! The one with Shu brocade on the bow is tied! It's Gan Ning coming!"

The big red bow on the bow of the ship was so arrogant that it was so conspicuous that it was still far from the enemy ship.

"No wonder I didn't run into him last time I captured Yan Pu. Later I heard that he was going to the south to block my second brother. Haha, the second brother beat you to the water and the water, which is naturally unfavorable. We will beat you to the water and the water today, and it depends on how you can hide!"

Zhang Fei stood at the bow of the ship, his fleet had just been mobilized, and he recognized the flag formation on the shore where Zhang Lu personally supervised the battle behind Dangqu Village. He wanted to go deeper and directly make a contribution to the battle, separating Zhang Lu himself from the rebel forces.

Unexpectedly, because of this delay, Gan Ning finally caught up.

But it doesn't matter! He is waiting for it.

Zhang Fei waved his hand: "The bed crossbow is still ready! Get close to fifty steps... No! It is only allowed to shoot arrows when you are thirty steps! We only have one wave! Then, at twenty steps, we threw the pot and torch with sugar glue and tinder oil in the pot! Do you understand! Whoever dares to do it first should not blame our military law!"

Because time is short, there are not many reserves of these special combat materials, and Zhang Fei only has one chance.

The warships of the two armies met, "Buzz~" several arrays echoed, dozens of arrows flew out, and there were also many crossbows on the Ganning warships, and even javelins with ropes, throwing axes and shooting hard.

The muffled sound of "Ku tuk" was prepared for both sides. Although the ship was not big and the bulkhead was poorly protected, everyone was wearing a shield, like a tortoise shell formation, at least 80% of the long-range attacks were blocked.

More than ten people in the Ganning fleet were stabbed by arrows shot into the cracks and screamed and fell into the water.

Many soldiers on Zhang Fei's side were stabbed by flying axes and javelins and smashed shields and killed them, and the number of people they lost was no less than that of the enemy.

There were also some tomahawks and javelins nailed to the boat wood. The Ganning Army pirates immediately pulled the rope hard, trying to drag the hooked Zhang Feijun warship to the nearest place to jump and kill.

"I am a general who is well versed in water war. He can use this method to temporarily hold up the enemy ship that has hedged by dozens of miles. However, I will not give you a chance to jump up!"

Seeing this, Zhang Fei sighed and felt proud.

Gan Ning's unique skill may have a counterproductive effect!

Originally, the two sides of the war were relatively fast and might not be able to throw them accurately, but Gan Ning dragged the enemy ship with ropes, so wouldn't he have no relative speed to hit the fixed target?

On the twenty Han army warships, each ship threw a pot of pottery, and a small half of them fell into the river and wasted water, but at least 60% of them hit the enemy ships.

Then the torches flew away, and many Ganning army bandits were still confused about the clay pot smashing on the shield, and the flames came soon.

"Ah! Fire! This fire cannot be shaken off! Jump the river!"

The shields used to block the shooting weapons were abandoned one after another. Some savvy bandits were already trying their best to save them and threw the shield into the river directly.

But the oil spilled out when the clay pot is broken will not be stuck to the shield, and more of it has been scattered on the ship's wood.

Fortunately, this is on the river. For soldiers with good water nature, it is still okay to abandon the ship and jump into the river to survive.

In a short while, dozens of warships in the Ganning Army caught fire, and bandits jumped into the river one after another. The army had low positions and poor equipment, and only wore leather armor, and often had to survive. Many of those who wore iron armor and had no time to take off were dragged and sunk into the bottom of the river by rapids.

Gan Ning's ship was also hit by a pot of tinsels. Moreover, because the bow of the ship was tied with a big red Shu brocade bow, his ship was too conspicuous and was taken care of. At least thirty cans of tinsel were called to him on the boat, and the Shu brocade bow was the first to burn, and the sails made by Shu brocade were second only to the next, and were more flammable than the sails of other ships.

Just three seconds after being attacked, Gan Ning's ship was the first to lose power and the sail was completely destroyed.

Gan Ning himself was also wearing iron armor. He had no time to take off, and was stained with several sticky tinctures that could not be shaken off. Gan Ning relied on his water nature and gritted his teeth and jumped directly into the river without even removing his armor. However, when he jumped into the river, he also did not forget to hold the shackles in his hand tightly.

His flail was handled before the war. When he threw a flying axe and attacked Zhang Fei's ship just now, Gan Ning specially wrapped the rope tied to the tail of the flying axe he threw on the iron chain part of his flail so that when the two ships were connected to the sidelines, he could swing over and jump onto the enemy ship.

At this moment, he was counting on this rope to ensure that he could pull it out of the water after jumping into the river to put out the fire.

Gan Ning closed his breath very long, holding it in the water for nearly a minute to ensure that the fire on his body was completely extinguished and not rekindled. There was no burning oil on the water surface, so he pulled the rope on the flail and climbed up one after another.

Finally, he spied up under the water and confirmed that there was no one near the axe on the side of the ship. Then he pulled it hard and jumped out of the water to pull the ship's side and rolled over.

"Today, you either die, or I die!" Gan Ning roared violently. He had abandoned his shield under the water, so he could only use a shackle with one hand and use a halberd with one hand. After finding Zhang Fei at one glance, he jumped and slashed over.

He knew that he was the only one who boarded Zhang Fei's boat at this time. Even if the other bandit brothers jumped into the river and fled, they would not be able to pull the rope to Zhang's boat, so they could only fight quickly and kill a general with enough money. Otherwise, the ship would be enemies and would be beaten up, which would be completely in vain.

Zhang Fei was also stunned. Unexpectedly, Gan Ning's boat was burned and he could still pull the rope and suddenly jump out of the river. He quickly waved his snake spear to fight.

Zhang Fei's first reaction was to set up a snake spear across and block the enemy's first jump, but fortunately, Zhang Fei's sharp eyes were sharp. Seeing that Gan Ning in the air was not a nail hammer but a shackle, the hammer head could turn and swing. Then he changed his move and stabbed forward with a single hand gun, and used his length advantage to block Gan Ning in the distance.

Gan Ning was in mid-air and could not dodge at all. She was about to be penetrated by a snake spear and gritted her teeth and smashed her across the shackle. After the shackle handle collided with the spear rod, the chain immediately tangled up due to inertia. Then Gan Ning pulled hard to one side three times, and then swung the spear rod to avoid the trouble of piercing the chest.

Zhang Fei secretly called luck and quickly pulled it back, holding the spear with his other hand and trembling with force.

At this moment, Zhang Fei had become a spear in his hands, while Gan Ning had only one hand holding a shackle. The two of them were wrapped in a place. Even if Gan Ning was not weak, she was far weaker than Zhang Fei's hands with one hand. The shackle was taken away by his hands. Zhang Fei shook the spear flower and threw Gan Ning's shackle into the river.

Gan Ning only had the left hand halberd. He knew that he was still unlucky. He recalled the description of the old scholar who told the story of the Spring and Autumn Period in the village when he was a teenager. He thought about the dead shape of his own way, and then put down the iron halberd, and twisted the hairstyle that was soaked in the river water like the student, wringed it dry and straightened it.

"What do you mean? Do you dare to despise me when you die?" Zhang Fei felt provoked, and the snake spear came out, heading straight to Gan Ning's throat, stopping two or three inches in front of his neck, which was easy to retract and release.

"If you want to kill, you will kill. If I miss a single blow, I will die even more ugly even if I struggle in vain. A gentleman will never be able to die, but unfortunately, he cannot change into a clean brocade robe. Come on."
