Chapter 59
Cao Ang also just remembered this incident, it was when Gan Ning frightened several boats with his archery skills.

According to his memory, Huang Zhong was also Liu Biao's subordinate. After Cao Cao took Jingzhou, he was placed in Changsha County, replacing a general called a general.

It is rumored that this person is still as fierce as a tiger in his 60s, and he can fight Guan Yu head to head!
Perhaps his archery skills are so good that it is difficult for future generations to mention his fighting skills.

According to this idea, how strong he was when he was young, maybe even Lu Bu can't beat him, and Liu Biao is so blind...

But Cao Ang didn't think so far at this time, and Cai Mao's dozen or so boats were all taken back.

Gan Ning alone has a terrifying oppressive power.

You can't chase it yet, and chasing it out has no effect at all. This is the suppression of hand-to-hand combat by range.

What is the biggest difference between the firearms era and the cold weapon era is the range.

As for the destructive power of the explosion, it appeared in the alchemy furnaces of warlocks in the pre-Qin period. The disadvantage is that it is too powerful. If there is no range, you can't survive by blowing up the enemy.

"Eldest Young Master, my subordinates are incompetent and failed to keep that Gan Ning."

Cai Hao interrupted Cao Ang's thoughts, and Cao Ang didn't blame him. As far as single-handed bravery is concerned, Gan Ning is also top-notch in this era.

So Cao Ang waved his hand: "There is no need to blame yourself, Degui, do you think there is a way to deal with this person?"

"Eldest son, if this person harasses us, we will indeed be very passive."

"How about a passive method?"

"He can fight against me with a large number of warships with very little strength. This person is brave... It is rare in this world."

"It's okay, let's go back."

Cao Ang didn't seem to care, "However, we must guard against them on the river. There must be boats patrolling the river. Let your brothers protect themselves and don't show their heads. If Gan Ning comes again, just turn around and call someone."

"No... Eldest son, this subordinate is willing to accept the punishment."

"It's not your fault, the enemy is too powerful, let's go back and find a way."

If it was placed before, Cao Ang's negative attitude would make Cai Mao feel incompetent, which is not a child's play.

Gan Ning almost suppressed your main force by himself. What does this mean? It means that he can cross the river and attack the camp without many people. was completely destroyed.

This is Gan Ning's deterrent power, and the top generals are also at the strategic level in this era.

But now, Cai Hao will not think that Cao Ang is incompetent.

Because Cao Ang had demonstrated his ability, the food crisis was resolved in a calm manner.

At this time, Cao Ang was calm again, and Cai Hao somehow felt that Cao Ang had his own solution.

Yes, there must be a way.

The easiest way is to call Huang Zhong here, and tie him to the bow of the ship as a turret...

Gan Ning's archery skills are inferior to Huang Zhong's anyway, and Huang Zhong is not afraid of anyone in the world in close combat. When he was old, he was capable of defeating Guan Yu, and the others were nothing.

But Cao Ang has a concern.

Once Huang Zhong showed his ability here, Cao Cao saw that he was so strong!
Therefore, Cao Cao would transfer Huang Zhong away, so this has something to do with Cao Ang.

Cao Cao would be blind if he didn’t use such a talent, but with so many strong generals under Cao Cao, wouldn’t it be a waste of talent to let him transfer Huang Zhong, what should Cao Ang do?
Back at the pier, before Cao Ang consulted with Jia Xu, Cheng Yu approached him.

"My lord, why did the folks stop building water villages?"

"Sir, if you ask this question, what can you do? Soochow has changed generals."

"Change? What does it have to do with this? Could it be that the main force of Soochow has been transferred?"

"That's not true. After the general change, their army has fewer numbers, but that general is not so strong."

The second monk Cheng Yuzhang was puzzled, how could Soochow send so many troops that you couldn't deal with them?
Hearing that the main general was stronger, he quickly asked, "Who is the other general?"

"Gan Ning, sir, have you heard of it?"

"That's not true, you have to ask to know."

Cheng Yu had never fought a war here, so how could he know the heroes of this land.

Gan Ning was famous as a water thief, and his crimes were only spread in this area, and the famous generals in the Central Plains had never heard of them.

So he then suggested to Cao Ang: "My lord, if that's the case, how about I report back to the prime minister and send a general to fight against him?"

"Sir, do you also support father's plan to conquer Soochow?"

"That's natural. Now that the army has gone out, if it returns without success, how is it different from being defeated?"

Cheng Yu supported the army march, but he really didn't know enough about Jiangdong. He had all the experience in wars in the Central Plains, so there was always a chance for such a strong army.

But today Cao Ang didn't come to analyze the situation with him, so he could only follow his words.

"Sir, a powerful general on the opposite side must have strong mobility. If we only send one person to guard, it will inevitably be stretched. If the opposite side separates troops, what should we do to harass us?"

"Eldest son, from what you said, it seems that you have a plan?"

Cao Ang nodded: "It's a plan, I'm thinking about it, but now I'd like to ask sir to help me."

"Young Master, just say that the vanguard army is very important at this time, and it cannot be ignored."

"In two days, you can help me transfer someone..."

"Then the young master still wants a general to sit in charge?"

"This is because Zhang Yun is gone, and I have too few people available under my command. At the same time, my father is also employing people. If I want to send troops to Soochow, I must have subordinates from all over the country. Although my father has many talents under his command, this battle is too big. .”

Cao Ang looked like he understood his father very well, and it was very moving to watch.

He is the vanguard, the commander of the first line of contact with Soochow. Although the main task is not to fight, it is much more difficult than others. He has to build water villages and prevent Soochow from various tentative attacks.

Cheng Yu was really moved: "Young Master is worthy of being the prime minister's eldest son...but it's just a matter of dispatching someone casually?"

"Well, let's see, there's Huang Zhong and Huang Hansheng in Changsha County. Sir, please transfer this person here within two days. After all, he is also Liu Biao's subordinate, and he knows Soochow. Although the famous generals beside my father are brave, they may not be so familiar with them. .”

"Liu Biao's subordinate? That should be fine. I can ask Changsha to transfer someone first, and then report to the prime minister."

Cheng Yu believed it, but the enemy's fierce general hadn't been resolved yet, "How will you deal with Jiangdong's change of general?"

"Well, it seems that our camp needs to be more prepared. I'm going to recruit some civilians into the battle and start training immediately. This will naturally delay the construction period, but it's safer after all."

"My lord, this..."

"It doesn't matter. It has been going well before. If the rest of the civilian husbands are allowed to hurry up, there is still time."

Seeing Cao Ang's remarks, Cheng Yu nodded, okay.

It's not a big problem to transfer a general from Jingzhou, and it won't affect Cao Cao's arrangements.
