Hearing that Su Fei had just left, Sun Quan's face turned livid.

"How many troops did Gan Ning have? Why didn't he notice it beforehand?" Sun Quan asked Han Dang's personal entourage.

"There are only more than a hundred riders, and the camp was relatively slack just now..." the attendant bowed his head and replied.

"Can you keep me alive?" Lu Su asked Sun Quan immediately after seeing his embarrassed expression.

"They came and went like the wind in the dark night. Now they have retreated completely. They seem to be escaping to the southwest. General Han sent me to ask if we should pursue them..." The follower continued to ask.

There were only a hundred or so cavalry, and they rushed into the midst of thousands of troops and fought and fought, but in the end they were intact. Who would believe this?

When Lu Su saw that Sun Quan was silent, he suggested: "My lord, Jiangxia can be captured in a blink of an eye. There may be an ambush at night. Why don't we chase after dawn?"

Sun Quan thought, why should we chase after dawn? He thought over and over again and said sternly: "Now we will attack Jiangxia with all our strength, and pretend that Gan Ning's incident never happened. Send an order to the entire army. Those were Su Fei's remnants just now..."

Lu Su's eyes widened. The master was doing this for the sake of face and did not want to mention the depressing incident just now.

"Only..." Han Dang nodded and said.

At this time, a group of cavalry came galloping from the southeast. Sun Quan thought it was Gan Ning coming back and prepared to retreat towards the camp.

Lu Su grabbed him and said, "Lord, that seems to be the official achievement of Sima Ling from another department..."

When Sun Quan heard that it was Ling Tong, he regained his serious expression and straightened his clothes.

"My lord, the enemy troops that broke through the east gate have been completely wiped out. Huang Zu was beheaded by the cavalry general Feng Ze, and Lieutenant Lu is commanding the army to invade Jiangxia." Ling Tong reported with cupped fists.

When Sun Quan heard that Huang Zu had been beheaded, his mood improved slightly. He encouraged him and said: "The official achievement comes at the right time. Let's also attack the city from the south gate."

"My lord, I heard that the enemy who killed my father is here, so I specially brought my troops to help in the battle. Where has Gan Ning gone now?" Ling Tong asked.

Seeing that Sun Quan's face fell again, Lu Su quickly said: "The previous military information was a misinformation, it was just Su Fei's remnant..."

"It's not Mr. Zijing, you..." Ling Tong saw that Lu Su kept winking at him, so he swallowed his words mid-sentence.

Lu Su ordered: "Follow your lord's arrangements, let's all enter through the south gate together."

"Wei." Ling Tong responded with cupped fists.

At this time, Ling Tong saw Han Dang's personal entourage beside him, and thought that he should ask General Han about Gan Ning's matter later. He should know something about the situation at the main camp.

In early May of the 13th year of Jian'an, Sun Quan broke through Jiangxia and beheaded the prefect Huang Zu. Out of resentment in his heart, he massacred the city of Jiangxia and then led his army to return to Chaisang by water.

Sun Quan's massacre of the city made Zhou Yu extremely puzzled. He once asked: "Jiangxia is the gateway to Jingzhou from the west. If the lord wants to conquer Jingzhou, he must occupy Jiangxia. This place is already the lord's land, and the people in this city are already the lord's people. Why?"

And slaughter them?"

Sun Quan pointed to Jiangbei and said: "Although we have won a great victory in the attack on Jiangxia, our army has been depleted of men and horses, and we have also lost a lot of money and food. Guan Yunchang is watching eagerly on the other side. It is better to leave as soon as possible after slaughtering the city. Even if I sell this empty city to

Liu Xuande’s face.”

Zhou Yu wanted to say something else, but Lu Su kept blinking at him and stopped talking.

After Gan Ning rescued Su Fei, he quickly reunited with his troops and returned to Guiyang by land and water to find Liu Bei.

Liu Bei was shocked when he saw Su Fei, "Xingba, how did you rescue Governor Su?"

Gan Ning then told what happened in the past few days. Zhuge Liang was overjoyed after hearing this: "My lord, Governor Su was able to escape and ascend to heaven. Firstly, General Gan was astonishingly brave. Secondly, Ziyu's chain plan was cleverly conceived, but Huang Taishou didn't know it."

Can we get out of trouble?"

Liu Bei immediately held a banquet to celebrate Gan Ning's victory and calm Su Fei's shock. Two days later, Guan Yu sent Guan Ping to Chen County.

"Uncle, military advisor, and prefect Huang Zu was defeated and beheaded. Sun Quan led his troops back to Chaisang after massacring Jiangxia. My father ordered me to come back and ask for instructions on what to do?" Guan Ping cupped his fists and reported.

"Military advisor, look..." Liu Bei looked at Zhuge Liang and asked.

Zhuge Liang paced back and forth, and then said: "General Guan has been training hard in Dongting. Since Jiangxia City is now free, Yunchang can be stationed there."

"Will Yun Chang's occupation of Jiangxia arouse Jing Sheng's suspicion? Didn't the military advisor ask me to hide my capabilities and bide my time?" Liu Bei asked doubtfully.

"This time, that time. Jiangxia is an important town in Jingzhou, and it cannot be defended without capable people. After Huang Zu's death, Liu Biao will have no suitable candidate. General Gan can be asked to quickly return to Quanling to find Ziyu, and let him persuade the eldest son to write to Liu Jingzhou

, I will make Yun Chang the governor of Jiangxia." Zhuge Liang suggested.

"Then we won't hide our capabilities and bide our time?" Liu Bei asked again.

Zhuge Liang shook his head and said: "Now that the north has been pacified, Cao Cao will go south soon. There is no point in hiding one's strength and biding time. My lord can now display his grand plans."

Liu Bei nodded and said: "In that case, I hope you can return to Xiakou as soon as possible and let Yunchang stationed in Jiangxia immediately."

"Yes, uncle." Guan Ping responded with clasped fists.

While Gan Ning went to Jiangxia to rescue Su Fei, Lan Tian recruited 5,000 new soldiers in Shi'an, Lingling and other places, most of whom were brave Yue people. He immediately recalled Gao Shun to train these people.

Gan Ning returned to Quanling, kowtowed to Lan Tian and thanked him, and then truthfully relayed Zhuge Liang's words to him.

The politics of Lingling County are clear and clear, the people are happy and the society is stable. Liu Qi lives a happy life here. A few days ago, Lai Gong, the governor of Jiaozhou, came to Quanling to pay a visit. He expressed his closeness and obedience. Liu Qi knew that this was all the credit of Lantian, so he became even more

Follow his advice.

Liu Qi agreed without any hesitation to propose Guan Yu as the prefect of Jiangxia. Although he took away his 10,000 naval troops, he still obeyed his orders. Moreover, Lantian also recruited 5,000 new soldiers. After all, it was profitable.

Buy and sell.

At this time, Liu Biao was seriously ill and was no longer able to go to court to handle political affairs.

In order to support Liu Cong's successful succession to the throne, Cai Mao, Kuai Yue and others had begun to eliminate dissidents in Xiangyang. Many celebrities were crossing the Yangtze River south to join the eldest son Liu Qi.

The news that Huang Zu was beheaded in Jiangxia shocked Xiangyang. Even Liu Biao, who was in the hospital bed, sat up in shock.

Liu Biao summoned Cai Mao in front of the hospital bed to discuss subsequent candidates. Cai Mao proposed several candidates one after another, but Liu Biao rejected them because Jiangxia's position was too important to Jingzhou, and ordinary people could not afford this heavy responsibility.

Just when the two were silent, Kuai Yue burst in with a letter from Liu Qi, "My lord, the eldest son has sent a letter from Lingling."

After reading the letter, Liu Biao said: "It seems that we can only rely on Qi'er's words. If Guan Yunchang hadn't frightened Sun Quan at Xiakou, I'm afraid Jiangxia would have been taken over by him."

"Brother-in-law, since Guan Yunchang arrived with his navy, why didn't he try his best to rescue Jiang Xia? This must be Liu Bei's plot." Cai Mao sneered.

"Humph, Sun Quan has come this time with 30,000 naval troops. How much combat power Qi'er's 10,000 naval troops have. Degui, you should know better than anyone, right?" Liu Biao said lightly.

Cai Mao suddenly became speechless, and Liu Biao slapped the edge of the bed and said: "Yidu, please immediately report that Guan Yu is the governor of Jiangxia. Xuande has also suffered in Guiyang these days. He will definitely be able to guard the east gate of Jingzhou for me. Ahem...

"

"Brother-in-law..."

"I'm tired, please step back..."
