Chapter 152 Xinchang
Under the hazy moonlight, a huge fleet appeared on the coast of Liaodong County. Countless soldiers landed in small boats silently, and under the leadership of the squad leader, they quickly assembled and moved forward.

And on the sparkling sea, there are countless small boats shuttling back and forth, sending teams of soldiers to the coast.

This large army is the other navy that disappeared. Under the leadership of Gan Ning, they quietly approached the sea of ​​Liaodong from the sea, and secretly boarded Liaodong County in the dark.

Gan Ning, the commander of the navy, was dressed in a light blue cloth, standing on a raised hill with his back to the sea, regardless of the naval soldiers who were like ants climbing up the shore behind him, but silently looked at the depths of the shore, faintly Under the moonlight, all in front of me was a dark forest.

At this time, Gan Ning was tightly holding a kit in his hand, which was the order sent by Chen Ziming.

He wants to complete a shocking feat in accordance with the orders above, a military operation that has never occurred in the history of China. Once this battle is successfully completed, the navy led by Gan Ning will be recognized by the world and will truly become Liu Bei's hand sword.

"General Gan, it's two hundred miles from here to Xinchang City. I think the army has chosen a sparsely populated marching route, but it needs to detour." A young man in gray coarse cloth stood beside Gan Ning and said to Gan Ning.

"Yes, if this operation is successful, you and the hidden guards will take the lead." Gan Ning nodded slightly, without looking at the young man beside him, but it could be seen from his expression that he was very satisfied with what the young man said just now.

"We are just following orders, and we dare not take credit for it!" The young man said with a slight bend.

"You can send people to lead the way, and I will send you a few small teams to remove all obstacles on the marching road and ensure that the whereabouts of our army will not be detected." Gan Ning looked straight ahead and issued orders in his mouth.The so-called obstacles, of course, are some passing civilians or rangers.

"If!" The young man responded immediately, walked down the hill, called a group of people dressed in common people's clothes to his side, and began to arrange.

Soon, the group of seemingly ordinary people quickly dispersed, and one could tell at a glance that they were all well-trained elites.

[-] marines, led by the dark guards, chose to advance along sparsely populated paths, quietly along the way, and did not light a fire to cook, and ate dry food when they were hungry.

The food for Liu Bei's army is very good, and every meal must have meat. This is the credit of Chen Ziming, who ordered the land under Liu Bei's rule to vigorously develop poultry farming.

Pigs and chickens are the most, and there are many other ducks and geese. If the civilians cannot digest these meats, the military will buy all the rest.

Store the excess as jerky for emergencies.Of course, there is no such thing as plastic in this era, so it is impossible to make any vacuum packaging.

So even if the meat can be turned into jerky, the storage time is limited.But half a month is still no problem, especially the navy has the greatest demand for dried meat. After all, once they get on the ship, they won't be able to get off the ship in a day or two.

There are even some training sessions that last for a month. Generally, fires are not allowed to cook on warships. They can only eat dry food, and all kinds of jerky are their best food at this time.

"General, if you cross this mountain, you will arrive at Xinchang. However, once the army crosses this mountain, they will inevitably be exposed and will be discovered by the guards of Xinchang City." The young man who had been following Gan Ning said helplessly. Gan Ning said.

After two days of rapid march, the army finally arrived at the destination of the trip, Liaodong Xinchang, which is where Gongsundu's headquarters is located, the Liaodong government office, the political center of Liaodong, Xinchang City.

"Does the dark guard have the latest information?" Gan Ning asked the young man beside him calmly, his expression unchanged.

"The dark guards in Xinchang have just heard a new situation. Gongsun Kang, the son of Gongsundu, is collecting food and grass and transporting it to the army of Gongsundu in Lelang County. There are many food transportation teams entering and leaving Xinchang every day, and now there are only [-] soldiers in Xinchang city. Horses, all the rest of the soldiers and horses have been sent out to collect and transport food." The young man immediately told Gan Ning the latest information he had just received.

"Very good. I ordered the army to climb the mountain immediately and wait for the dark in the mountain. The dark guards immediately searched to see if there is any grain requisition pile from Xinchang." After listening to the young man, Gan Ning closed his eyes and thought for a while, and then gave orders to the people around him. .

"If!" The young man immediately knew Gan Ning's purpose, pretended to be a grain requisition team, and swindled to open Xinchang City.

"Quickly open the city gate and let me in." Just after dark, a team of 100 people appeared at the south gate of Xinchang swaggeringly holding torches.

They were all dressed in light blue clothes, holding spears in their hands, and dressed in standard Gongsundu soldiers and horses. There were a dozen or so carriages in the team, all of which were loaded with things.

"The gate of the city is closed, you wait until tomorrow morning before entering the city." A shout came from the tower, and the gate was closed at sunset, this is a military order.

"Your eyes are frightened. We are the food collection team sent by the major general to Wangcun. Wangcun is a long way away. I have already worked very hard to get back at this time. Hurry up and let me go to the city to return to my life. When the time has passed , the major general blames it, can you bear it?" Hearing the shouting from the tower, the leader of the food collection team outside the city immediately roared loudly and pulled out Gongsun Kang's banner.

"This... This is a military order. I don't dare to open the city gate at will. I need an order from General Li He." The man on the top of the tower was embarrassed. He knew that Gongsun Du's army was in urgent need of a large amount of food and grass recently, so The food requisition team was sent out from the city, and it was the order of Major General Gongsun Kang himself.

And the city gate is closed every day at sunset, this is a military order, he didn't have the guts to open the city gate, he couldn't afford to offend at both ends, so he immediately pulled the guarding captain out as a shield.

"Why don't you hurry up and report." An annoying voice came from under the city.

"What's going on, who is under the gate?" At this moment, Li He, the captain of the city guard, walked up to the tower.

"General Li, the grain requisition team sent by the major general to Wangcun in the south is under the city. Because of the long journey, they came back at this time and missed the time to enter the city. They asked me to open the city gate and let them in. The general is waiting for them to go back and report back." The team leader immediately informed Li He of the situation.

"Are you sure they are the food requisition team?" Li He walked to the city wall and carefully observed the team under the lower city.But it was already dark and the distance was so far, although the troops below the city were holding torches, at most he could clearly see that the people below the city were wearing the clothes of Gongsun Du's soldiers and horses, as for their faces, he couldn't see clearly at all.

"This, General Li, should be the food requisition team. This is the depths of Liaodong. No one dares to pretend to be our soldiers." The team leader was not sure, but gave Li He a statement that he thought was reasonable.

"Then let them in. The grain requisition is an order from the Major General himself. I won't spoil the Major General's affairs." Li He thought for a while, and it is true. There can be no enemy troops here, and it must be the grain requisition team. That's right, so without asking any more questions, I ordered the city gate to be opened.
