A few days later, when Kou Feng was handling official business in County Governor Manor, a guard suddenly came to report that many warships had appeared on the river!
There were about a thousand of them, and the leader called himself Gan Ning. He had come to pay his respects to Kou Feng!
After hearing the news, Kou Feng immediately stopped his work and brought Luo Cheng to the Jiangxia Water Stronghold!
The Jiangxia Water Stronghold was only a few miles away from the city of Xiling, and they could arrive there in no time on a warhorse!
When Kou Feng arrived at the water stronghold, Su Fei, Chen Jiu, and Deng Long, who were the temporary commanders of the Jiangxia Navy, immediately came out to greet him!
It just so happened that the Jiangxia Navy had 30,000 soldiers, each of whom commanded more than 10,000 troops. They were all generals under the Huang Ancestor!
Speaking of which, if the three of them had established their own businesses when Kou Feng had taken over Jiangxia, the 30,000 navy might not have ended up in Kou Feng's hands!
Of course, even though they said that, the families of the Jiangxia soldiers were all in Jiangxia, so they would definitely not leave with them!
Perhaps it was because of this relationship that Wu Cheng, who was originally the navy commander, led his army back to accept Kou Feng's reorganization!
It was also because of this that Kou Feng did not kill Wu Cheng because of his defeat. Instead, he gave him enough money to let him live a comfortable life!
As for Su Fei and the other two, they were quite familiar with naval warfare, so Kou Feng temporarily let the three of them command the Jiangxia Navy together!
With his 3,000 Qi Family Army as the main force and the rest as support, he would be able to display extraordinary combat strength!
It was worth mentioning that Su Fei was a close friend of Gan Ning's. He was the one who had introduced Gan Ning to Huang Zu!
Unfortunately, Ancestor Huang could not use it!
"Greetings, my lord!"
When Kou Feng arrived at the water stronghold, Su Fei and the other two immediately bowed to him.
Seeing this, Kou Feng immediately dismissed the formalities and asked Su Fei anxiously.
"Where is Gan Ning and Gan Xingba now?"
Su Fei, who was Gan Ning's good friend, was overjoyed to hear that Kou Feng was so anxious to find Gan Ning. He could finally put his good friend in an important position!
Therefore, Su Fei grinned and said!
"My lord, Gan Ning is currently leading his troops to the Jiangxia Water Stronghold. I will bring you there immediately!”
Kou Feng dismounted his horse and led Luo Cheng and Su Fei on a warship toward Gan Ning.
……
When the gates of the Jiangxia water stronghold opened and a Mengchong emerged with only Kou Feng and a few others on board, even Gan Ning was stunned!
In truth, Gan Ning had been worried that this was just a reason for Kou Feng to kill him.
After all, Gan Ning was unstoppable in the Yangtze River, robbing merchant ships!
No matter who occupied Jiangxia, they would not allow him to be unscrupulous!
Moreover, Gan Ning was originally from Yizhou, but he hadn't accomplished anything in Jingzhou. He had been suppressed by the Yellow Ancestor!
He had no choice but to become a pirate. If Huang Zu had given him an important position, why would Gan Ning be willing to become a pirate?
As a result, Gan Ning still didn't believe that the famous Kou Feng would be willing to make such a big fuss for a pirate like him!
However, when he saw Kou Feng standing at the bow of the ship and personally coming to see him, he believed him!
At this moment, Gan Ning's heart was filled with trust.
With that thought, Gan Ning steered his warship and single-handedly headed toward Kou Feng!
When the two ships got closer, Kou Feng laughed and said with a smile!
"Gan Xingba is indeed brave. It's a waste of talent for such a hero to only be a ranger. I wonder if you're willing to join my Jiangxia and become the commander of my Jiangxia Navy?”
As Kou Feng spoke, even Gan Ning, who was as tall as an iron tower, couldn't help but feel like his tears were about to burst!
This trust was something Gan Ning had never felt before!
Gan Ning bowed to Kou Feng on the boat and then knelt on the deck.
One had to know that during the Three Kingdoms period, even if the officials were to pay their respects to the emperor, they only needed to bow with cupped hands. There was no need for them to kneel!
"Thank you for not abandoning me and treating me with sincerity as the navy commander. Gan Ning is willing to die for you!”
"Ding-dong. Gan Ning's stats are as follows: ”
gan ning
[Strength: 98]
[Intelligence: 87]
[Commander: 89]
Political Affairs: 74
[Charm: 83]
[Loyalty: 98]
Kou Feng nodded when he saw Gan Ning's stats. With his sincerity in recruiting Gan Ning, his loyalty had reached 98!
Basically, if the loyalty was above 90, then it was an existence that would not betray him even in the face of life and death!
Plus, Gan Ning was brave enough to become the commander of the Jiangxia Navy and train the thirty thousand weak soldiers into true elites!
When the two boats connected, Kou Feng helped Gan Ning up and laughed.
"I'll be like a fish in the water when I rise to power. From now on, I'll leave these tens of thousands of sailors to you. You must make them a strong army within half a year!”
Gan Ning knew what Kou Feng was thinking, but he still tried to avoid the question.
"If the lord trusts me so much, Gan Ning would be willing to risk his life to serve, but I've only just joined the army. If I were to command tens of thousands of soldiers…"
Kou Feng shook his head.
"I heard that Gan Xingba is a lawless person. Why? There are only 30,000 people and you don't dare to accept the order. What if there are 100,000 navy in the future?”
"What if I let you block the Yangtze River, lead the army to take down River East, and even cross the ocean to sail against the millions of Cao troops in the future?”
Even the proud Gan Ning was stunned by Kou Feng's words.
He had never thought that his lord would be so ambitious!
However, this was also good. This gave Gan Ning more room to shine!
Gan Ning's eyes burned as he bowed to Kou Feng.
"Don't worry, my lord. I'm willing to make a military pledge. In half a year, no, three months, I'll definitely make the combat strength of the Jiangxia Navy surpass Jiangdong!”
