Liu Qi rested all night in the military tent!
The next day, they began to patrol the riverside.
This is a relatively important matter. It is impossible for Sun Wu to not know the information about his side's attack on Runan, and once the other party knows the information here. Will he sit back and do nothing? Or do you have any other ideas?
I can't say for sure.
The hatred between Jingzhou and Sun Wu is actually very great.
Therefore, it must be strictly guarded. Otherwise, big problems may easily arise.
this day.
Liu Qi always looks towards the north from time to time.
I don’t know what happened ahead.
At this moment, Gan Ning was already leading his troops and heading towards Runan City quickly.
The defenders on the city wall immediately discovered that an army was rushing toward them quickly.
At this moment, it is time to change defense.
This was also the time point Gan Ning specially selected after his investigation.
Next!
"Enemy attack, enemy attack..."
Following the scoldings, the defenders on the city wall began to quickly draw their bows and shoot arrows.
However, in the blink of an eye, Gan Ning had already arrived at the city gate.
Arrows passed by one after another. Gan Ning would draw his sword and block the arrows shot from the city wall.
However, the defenders of Runan City are not fools either.
At this moment, the city gate has been quickly closed.
This also made Gan Ning feel a little annoyed. Originally, he wanted to take advantage of the time to change defenses and quickly attack the city. However, once the city gate is closed and their army has no siege equipment, it is already somewhat impossible to invade Runan City.
"General, what should we do now?"
Gan Ning's eyes were somewhat solemn, and he was constantly thinking about countermeasures in his heart.
Now, just retreat like this?
He was somewhat unwilling to do so. However, if you just rush forward like this, I'm afraid it won't have much effect!
…
Liu Qi was sitting in the military tent.
Being in a trance.
Han Song walked in, took a pill at Liu Qi, and said softly: "I have met my lord!"
"How many times have I told you, we don't need to be so open to each other!" Liu Qi laughed, and then continued: "You come all the way to the military camp to find me, what's the matter?"
"Didn't the Lord say yesterday that he wanted to investigate the situation at Ma Song's house?"
Liu Qi nodded.
"I asked someone to inquire about it. An ancestor of Ma Song's family once served as a county guard. Later, he was dismissed because he was implicated. He opened a private school in the local area and lived a relatively poor life!"
Liu Qi froze there, with a bit of surprise in his eyes.
After pondering for a moment, he continued: "So, there is nothing wrong with this person?"
"I guess there is no problem!"
Han Song paused for a moment, and then continued: "There has been some trouble in Han Song's family recently! His wife gave birth to his fifth son, and relying on the income from the private school, it is no longer possible to uncover the trouble. , that’s why I thought of coming to seek refuge with the lord. I want to find a job!”
"oh……"
Liu Qi took a deep breath.
Try your best to calm down your emotions.
"Well, that's a bit pitiful!"
Han Song shook his head helplessly, and after pondering for a moment, he continued: "It's just that this person didn't show much talent in the process of teaching. Even though he met some scholars, he didn't know much about him. The price is generally not very high. So, my lord, are you sure you want him to continue to be your chief bookkeeper?"
"Um!"
Liu Qi laughed: "That's it for now. The chief clerk doesn't need to have any special talents. Being able to read and know some arithmetic is enough!"
"Right!"
Han Song paused slightly.
After pondering for a moment, he continued: "Then my subordinate will go down first!"
Liu Qi nodded.
Immediately, as if he had thought of something, he asked softly: "By the way, this Ma Song has five sons? If his family is far away, just bring all the people in his family to Xiakou. In addition, Find a house for him nearby!"
"Here!"
Han Song nodded.
Knowing that Liu Qi wanted to buy horse bones with thousands of gold.
"By the way, how is the compilation of nursery rhymes going?" Liu Qi laughed, and then asked again.
Han Song paused for a moment, with a wry smile on his face.
"I'm still writing. However, this kind of nursery rhymes that are widely sung are actually the hardest to compile." Han Song gave a bitter smile.
They are no longer children.
If this kind of nursery rhyme wants to form an impression in the minds of children, it needs to interest them first.
This is not an easy job for Han Song.
"Well, you need to worry more about this."
There was a hint of helplessness in Liu Qi's eyes: "Now that Huang Zhong is gone, what's going on in Anmin City? No one is making trouble, right?"
"That's not true."
Han Song shook his head: "The method of recruiting soldiers specified by the Lord is particularly easy to use. The new soldiers are already being trained, and guarding Anmin City in normal times is not a problem. Now, Anmin City has just begun to be built, and these refugees We have enough food, clothing and things to do every day, so there won’t be any big trouble!”
"Um!"
Liu Qi laughed, which was what he expected.
Although Huang Zhong is gone, the new army is already under construction.
This time there were not many new recruits. The most important thing is that even if they are recruited, it is not easy to raise them. According to Liu Qi's idea, only 5,000 new soldiers were recruited.
However, all these five thousand people were trained by Liu Qi's method of strengthening the army.
Therefore, the combat effectiveness will definitely be unique in the future.
"When news comes back from the front, we will go to Anmin City to have a look..."
Liu Qi's voice was very soft.
Han Song hurriedly saluted.
Han Song retreated slowly.
At this moment, Liu Qi suddenly heard waves of deep sounds. He raised his head slightly, then stood up and walked outside the tent.
But it is a discovery.
A homing pigeon has landed at the top outside the camp!
Liu Qi whistled hastily.
The carrier pigeon seemed to feel something. It suddenly flapped its wings and flew to Liu Qi's shoulder.
"Don't let anything go wrong!"
Liu Qi prayed in his heart.
With a bit of anxiety, Liu Qi gently opened a small piece of cloth tied to the pigeon's leg. After taking a closer look, his eyes showed a bit of excitement!
"Break the city!"
Just two simple words, but it means that Gan Ning actually took the lead in taking down Runan City.
This far exceeded Liu Qi's expectations.
