"The fish should be hooked soon! He ordered Wen Pin's infantry to secretly return to Xiangyang by boat in Jiangxia. If there is an accident in Jingbei, they can act according to their own circumstances.”
"Order the garrisons to wear casual clothes and spread out to the various cities. No matter what happens, ignore it and wait for the army to arrive.”
"Tell Kuai Liang to be prepared to appease the people at all times, to control the chaos within a controllable range, and not to really make the people uneasy. Han Sheng, I'll leave Jingnan to you. Concealment, speed, surprise."
"Yes!"
"Sir, what should I do then?" Gan Ning couldn't hear his name for a long time, and he was already hopping mad.
"Stay and fish with me!"
"Fishing?"
Huang Zhong tugged at Gan Ning's sleeve and whispered,"If we all leave, who will protect the lord?”
"Oh! I see."
After everyone left, Chu Huan dragged the uncomfortable Gan Ning to the lake to fish.
"Xing Ba, do you know why I asked you to stay?”
"Protect the lord."
"Could it be that someone would assassinate me on this island?”
Gan Ning rolled his lips, not knowing what to do.
"Xing Ba, I know that you want to prove yourself with your achievements, and I think highly of you. However, you're still too young now, and you're a pirate. Just because I don't mind doesn't mean that others don't mind. If you don't have a certain amount of connections in the army, you'll attract jealousy and hatred. Do you understand what I mean?”
Gan Ning lowered his head in silence for a long time before kneeling down and kowtowing three times. His voice trembled as he said,"Your grace is like a rebirth! I'd rather be loyal to you for the rest of my life!"
The days continued, and Jing State welcomed the new year amidst the turmoil.
On the third day of the first month of the third year of Zhongping.
Xinye strong Hao Liu Jing assassinated Xinye County Magistrate rebellion, Kuai Liang mobilized Xiangyang soldiers to quickly crusade.
On the seventh day, Zhao Ci, a powerful family in Xiangyang, saw that Xiangyang was empty and led 3,000 soldiers to attack the governor's office. Kuai Liang led 500 soldiers to resist desperately.
"Lord Kuai, there are so many bandits. I'm afraid it's difficult for us to resist.”
"There's no need to panic. Milord has already made arrangements.”
Zhao Ci was Huang Zu's in-laws. When Huang Zu was killed, Zhao Ci gritted her teeth in hatred. However, Chu Huan was powerful and could only endure it. He had heard that Chu Huan was trapped on Junshan Island and couldn't even protect himself. Now that he had an opportunity, how could he not do the same?
"Everyone in the residence, listen up. Surrender quickly and hand over Chu Huan's relatives.”
"Zhao Ci, you are a noble clan of Jing State, how can you rebel? Do you want to exterminate your family?"
"Chu Huan has the heart of a wolf. Rather than waiting for death, it's better to fight. Kuai Liang, I respect you as a famous person in Jiangnan. As long as you hand over Chu Huan's family, I won't make things difficult for you.”
"Zhao Ci, it's not too late for you to surrender now. I won't report what you've done today to Milord.”
"Army? The army was probably still at Dongting Lake, right? The 5,000 soldiers who stayed behind were also transferred to Xinye to quell the chaos. They will only be able to return in five days at the earliest. Stop talking nonsense and surrender quickly, or I'll set fire to it.”
As soon as he finished speaking, a shout came from behind him." I wonder if we are considered an army?”
Zhao Ci turned his head and saw that the streets were densely packed with soldiers slowly moving towards them in a tight formation.
"Wenpin? Why is your army here? Didn't you go to Dongting Lake?"
"Haha! My lord is unpredictable, how could he be trapped on Noble Mountain Island by a small water bandit? The water bandits had been exterminated long ago, and the reason why they mobilized so many people was to let you restless people come out on your own.”
"Surrender? Surrendering to the crime of rebellion is also a death sentence. If you want to live, charge out with me!”
"You overestimate yourself!" Wen Pin said loudly. The person opposite him listened. Those who offered the thief's head would be forgiven!”
As soon as this sentence was heard, the five or six people around Zhao Ci immediately raised their weapons and attacked Zhao Ci. Before Zhao Ci could figure out what was going on, he was cut into pieces. A large group of people began to snatch the parts on Zhao Ci's body and compete to report their achievements.
On the tenth day of the month, the water bandits were wiped out, and the news of the governor Chu Huan using a plan to quell the rebellion spread.
Yan Jun, the governor of Baling, and Jin Xuan, the governor of Changsha, who colluded with the water bandits and were afraid of being implicated, rebelled one after another.
After Huang Zhong received the news, he sent his troops to attack the two cities at night. He should open the city gates within midnight to quell the rebellion in the two cities.
After quelling the rebellion, they quickly took ships to various places to arrest those who colluded with the water bandits.
On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the Lantern Festival.
"Milord, a secret letter has been delivered from the court.”
He took the sealed wax pill and crushed it. It turned out to be sent by Zhang Rang. The content was that Nanyang Prefecture Governor Qin Jie had sent a memorial to impeach him for failing to suppress the bandits, causing unrest and fear among the people of Jingzhou. Zhang Rang had already taken the seal.
Chu Huan's lips curled into a cold smile. This Qin Jie really didn't know how to appreciate favors, but he really had to thank you for giving him another empty seat.
"Is the messenger still here?"
"Yes!"
"Bring him to me."
Chu Huan immediately wrote a letter to thank Zhang Rang for his protection. At the same time, he sent another 20 jars of good wine, asking Zhang Rang to punish Qin Jie for spreading rumors and slandering him, and to confiscate his property and make him a slave.
On the second day of February, the dragon raised its head.
Chu Huan brought a large number of gold, silver, and jewelry back to Xiangyang with a large number of criminals. The people once again lined the streets to welcome him, and the people of Jingzhou praised him everywhere.
