"Dung Yi, could the navy be harassed by the Jinfan thief again?" Cheng Pu asked in a deep voice with a long white beard on his chin.

Seeing Cheng Pu ask, Jiang Qin did not dare to neglect at all, restrained his anger, forced himself to hold back his anger, and nodded and said, "Yes, Duke Cheng! From yesterday to today, in just one day and one night, that bastard Gan Ning attacked and harassed the navy at least 3 or 4 times, and each time he retreated with one blow. When our warship reacted, the bastard had long since slipped away!"

"Why are you attacked so repeatedly? Didn't Gong Yi send a patrol warship?" Cheng Pu asked with a slightly frown, and his face was grim.

"Duke Cheng, how could the general be so negligent?" Jiang Qin smiled bitterly and said, "It's really that Gan Ning is too cunning! He has been doing "no business" on the river for more than ten years. He is not only proficient in various water battle skills, but also is not comparable to the familiarity of the Yangtze River waters." Before joining the Jiangdong Army, Jiang Qin himself was also a Jiang thief and knew a lot about Gan Ning, who was once a fellow traveler.

"Damn, you can't let Gan Ning disturb you like this!" Jiang Qin's deputy, Ling Cao, the thief-breaking captain, said in a angrily manner. When the Jiangdong Navy was attacked by Gan Ning last night, Ling Cao had personally driven a boat to fight, but was almost penetrated by Gan Ning's throat. Fortunately, a personal soldier sacrificed himself to save him and escaped. At this moment, when Gan Ning mentioned, Ling Cao could not control his anger.

"Instead of being harassed by Gan thieves like this, it is better to let our main navy force take the initiative to attack, find the Gan thieves' lair, and remove it in one fell swoop!" Wu Meng Captain Pan Zhang suggested.

"Governor, the last general will allow the Navy and his team to go to fight against the Ganges bandits!" Ling Cao stepped out and asked Zhou Yu for his order.

"..." Zhou Yu, who was sitting in the main seat, was quietly listening to the discussions of the generals in the tent, with a calm expression, making people unable to see the true thoughts in his heart. Hearing Ling Cao's request for battle, Zhou Yu neither agreed nor directly refused. Instead, he asked Jiang Qin in a harmonious manner: "Dong Yi, how is the navy's damage in the past few days?"

"Uh..." Jiang Qin was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't expect Zhou Yu to ask this question at this time, but then he came back to his senses and replied quickly, "Report to the Governor, a total of more than 600 brothers have been lost!"

"Yeah?" Zhou Yu sighed slightly, and asked in surprise: "Where is the warship? How is the damage to the warship?"

"Governor, there were no losses in warships, only 2 Mengchong, and more than 10 boats were damaged..." Jiang Qin replied honestly.

"Didn't Gan Ning rob our warship?" Cheng Pu couldn't help but feel a little surprised and asked in confusion.

"Yeah!" Jiang Qin nodded and said, "The Gan thief did not steal our army's warships. Once, the navy's patrol warship was attacked by a sneak attack, and two of the brothers on the boat were all killed. The Gan thief did not want the two empty ships."

"Huh..." Cheng Pu frowned and took a long breath and said, "...This Gan Ning is indeed not easy to deal with..."

"General Cheng also saw it..." Zhou Yuying raised his sword eyebrows slightly and said in a deep voice: "The biggest difficulty our army is currently facing is insufficient military strength - the front line is too exhausted, and the rear military source cannot be supplemented! Gan Ning also likes this, and only uses guerrilla harassment tactics to continuously kill and injure our army's biological strength. If this continues, even if our navy can maintain many warships, no one can use anyone to control it, what's the use? Moreover, if he is not greedy for robbing warships, he can naturally advance and retreat like the wind when attacking and harassing our army! ............ This person is brave and resourceful, and now he is thrown into Liu Bei's army, which is a major concern for my Jiangdong navy!"

"Governor, since Gan Ning is so hateful, we should eliminate him as soon as possible! Please allow the generals to lead the navy to conquer the Ganges bandits!" Ling Cao asked Zhou Yu again and said.

"Zifu, if you want to completely eliminate Gan Ning, how many warship soldiers do you need?" Zhou Yu stared at Ling Cao with wise eyes and asked slowly.

"Governor, the last general only needs to control the warship soldiers of the headquarters!" Ling Cao said with a sigh.

"Zifu, do you know the military strength of Gan Ning's command? Do you know where it is hidden now?" Zhou Yu smiled faintly and continued to ask.

"This..." Ling Cao was immediately stopped by Zhou Yu.

"The enemy situation is completely unknown, and the opponent is not mediocre. Taking a rash attack will only mobilize the troops without any results, and may even be able to counterattack by the enemy!" Zhou Yu shook his head and said in a deep voice: "And for now, our army's main task is to defeat Kuai Yue's army first, and it is really not appropriate to divide the troops!"

"Kung Jin, Kuai Yue's army is all infantry and there is no navy. Our main force of the navy is stationed in the Chaisang waters and there is no big place to use it. It would be better to let Gong Yi and Zifu lead the main force of the navy to attack!" Cheng Pu said to Zhou Yu after pondering slightly.

"General Cheng, the main force of the navy is stationed here, at first glance, seems useless. But if you want to destroy Kuai Yue's army, you must be unable to do without the help of the navy." Zhou Yu replied very politely: "The Kuai Yue's army seems strong, but in fact it is at the end of the strong. At most, after seven or eight days, when his food and grass are exhausted, no matter how many soldiers he has, he will be defeated without fighting. At present, the Kuai Yue's army will not be able to attack and advance; if we retreat, we will be blocked by our army, which can be said to be a turtle in the jar! I thought that Kuai Yue would have been determined to retreat when he repeatedly attacked Chuansang without success. If he wanted to retreat, there were only three roads for him to choose from. One, pass by Xiazhi and Yangxin, retreat back to Jingnan, and the other, go directly eastward

, retreat to Jiangxia. These two roads can only go by land, and must forcibly break through our army's blockade. If Kuai Yue dares to do so, it will actually be a destruction. The third road is to directly cross the Yangtze River and retreat to Qichun. Although this retreat path is closest, it is the most difficult when my navy blocks the river. But if my navy goes to conquer Ganning and evacuate the Chaisang waters, it will give Kuai Yue an opportunity to take advantage of it. I am very suspicious that Ganning's frequent harassment of our army may be the result of Kuai Yue asking for help from Zhang Fei, Lujiang. Ganning will provoke our navy to pursue and recruit the remnants of the Jingzhou navy to transport troops and retreat across the Yangtze River. I am afraid that Kuai Yue's wishful thinking was made by Kuai Yue!"

"Well~!" After hearing Zhou Yu's analysis, Cheng Pu nodded slowly and said, "Your Highness is reasonable. If you want to wipe out Kuai Yue's army and eliminate Jingzhou's threat to Jiangdong in one fell swoop, it is indeed impossible to help the navy. In this way, you can only bear the moment of anger for a while." "Dong Yi, Zifu, after attacking and destroying Kuai Yue, I will lead the navy with you to conquer Gan Ning and swear to kill this thief's head!" Seeing Ling Cao's still a little unwilling, Zhou Yu said loudly: "But at the moment, you can only bear the moment of anger first, while continuing to tightly block the river, and on the other hand, you must be careful to prevent Gan Ning's sneak attack and harassment!"

"Yes, Governor!" Jiang Qin and Ling Cao bowed together and took the order.

"General Cheng, have you received the war report from Ziheng (Lu Fan) in the past two days?" Zhou Yu suddenly asked Cheng Pu in a deep voice.

"I haven't received any war reports! In the past, Ziheng would pass the war reports to Chaisang and us every two days, but this time... it's the third day!" Cheng Pu said in confusion.

"I hope something happened..." Zhou Yu's eyebrows showed a hint of worry, and then he began to think intently.

"Is it because Ziheng was trapped in the war and was too busy and forgot about it for a while..." Cheng Pu guessed, but then shook his head again, "Now Gan Ning is entangling with the main force of our navy here. Even if Liu Bei's navy still has a military force on the eastern front, it should not be enough to threaten Ziheng..."

"Uh..." Suddenly, Zhou Yu's eyes kept going, Junyan's expression changed slightly, as if she had thought of something, and said in a lost voice: "Did Liu Bei's army have broken through the obstruction of the Eastern Front Navy and crossed the river to the south..."

"Huh~..." As soon as Zhou Yu's words fell, a horrifying sound of breath sounded when the handsome tent was in a neutral state...

…………………………………………………………

On the evening of July 24th, at the hour of Hai, the west gate of Moling City

"General, you have finally arrived..." After carefully identifying that the soldiers outside the city were indeed their own horses, Wei Yan hurriedly ordered the suspension bridge to open the city gate, and then quickly ran down the city tower and welcomed me into the city.

"Wen Chang, you have made another great contribution, haha..." I praised without hesitation.

"Hehe... it's nothing. This kind of thing... is already familiar with it!" Wei Yan said with a smile. Although Wei Yan said it very easily, the risk coefficient of the "city fraud" strategy in the implementation process is quite large. If it is seen through by the enemy, it is very likely that the entire army will be wiped out. Fortunately, Wei Yan is a bold and meticulous boy, and can remain calm at critical moments, so he can successfully defraud the city again and again. From Shouchun to Lujiang, and even now Moling, Wei Yan is well deserved to be called the number one "city fraud" of our army! But this kind of adventure strategy can only be used to deal with ordinary people. If he meets a cruel character, he will inevitably be bleeding and die without a place to die. Zhang Liao, who died young in Shouchun City, is a bloody lesson!

"Well~? Wen Chang, are you injured?" Through the light of torches on both sides of the city gate, I suddenly noticed that Wei Yan's left arm was actually wrapped in a blood-stained cloth strip, and asked in surprise.

"A little bit of skin injury is not intrusive!" As he said, Wei Yan waved his arm a few times, indicating that it was indeed not intrusive.

"Wen Chang, is it because of the dissatisfaction of the city? What is the damage to the Langya Camp?" I asked anxiously.

"Don't worry, the loss is not big. With the combat power of Yuan Jian's 'wolf cubs' (Wei Yan called the Wolf Bad Camp), it would be a breeze to deal with the 23,000 new recruits in Moling City." Wei Yan said with a smile, "In fact, this loss could have been avoided. The most hateful thing is the boy named Quan. If he hadn't suddenly come out to disturb the matter, the defenders of Moling City would have been captured and wouldn't know what was going on? This brat..." At the end of the conversation, Wei Yan couldn't help but feel a little hateful.

"Boy surnamed Quan?..." I said in confusion.

"That kid is called Quan Cong, he is very good..."

Quan Cong! Another famous general in Jiangdong in the future! His skills may be slightly inferior to Xu Sheng and Ding Feng, but he is definitely not a good person. Although the Eastern Wu lacks top generals, the backbone talents are produced in many places. In comparison, there are very few generals available in the eldest brother's army!

I shook my head gently, quickly retracted my thoughts, and asked in a deep voice: "Has this Quan Cong ever captured?"

"Well~!" Wei Yan nodded and said, "This kid was seriously injured when he slipped away from me last time. He rushed to Moling to inform us of the news of our army crossing the river. He was already very tired. He didn't take much effort to catch him this time!"

"By the way, general! There is another unexpected gain in taking Moling this time!" Wei Yan said with great excitement when he suddenly remembered something.

"An unexpected gain?" I asked with a smile with interest.

"The past two days, Danyang Prefect Wu Jing happened to come to Moling to inspect defense. He was captured by his brothers when he fell into the city!"

"Wu Jing, the prefect of Danyang?" I immediately said in a lost voice. There was such a good thing! Did God really help me deliberately?

He quickly closed his eyes and thought. After a moment, I opened my eyes and asked Wei Yan urgently: "Wen Chang, have you ever obtained the seal of Wu Jing's Danyang Prefect?"

"Well~!" Wei Yan took out a small cloth bag from his arms and handed it to me, "General, the seal is here!"

"Hahaha..." I took the cloth bag and quickly lifted it up. A bronze seal with a nose (note: the prefect of the Han Dynasty could only use copper seals) was presented in front of me. After careful examination, I couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"General, is this seal so important?" Wei Yan asked in a little uncertainty when he saw me so excited.

"Haha... Wen Chang, with this seal, the capture of Danyang County is only between returning to the palm!"
