The beginning is the emperor

Chapter 400 I am Gan Ning

To the east of Linchuan East County, the river flows into the plain, forming a large lake. This lake is similar to Dongting Lake and Poyang Lake. The nearby water systems extend in all directions, from west to south, with tributaries crisscrossing them. In other words , Xinguo's geographical location is basically surrounded by lakes in the southeast.

In the center of the lake, there is an island. The island is neither too big nor too small. Looking from afar from the bow of the boat, the island is surprisingly turned into a small city with walls on all sides, beacon towers, and Many water thieves stood at the top of the city with bows and arrows in their hands.

Lu Zhonglian looked at it and found that this island is easy to defend and difficult to attack. It is definitely a strategic location. This is in the center of the lake, which happens to be stuck in Linchuan East County and the land to the east. This waterway must pass through here. This location , is really a strategic point.

Stopping at the gate of the wooden fence, Lu Zhonglian and a group of envoys from the new country went to the island. The gate was opened and they walked into the island. It was indeed like a small city with various buildings inside. Many water thieves are exercising their muscles and bones.

"How many people are there in total on this island?"

The water thief who was leading the way snorted: "Not many, only about 3000 people, and the number of water pirates in the rest of the water system is even larger, with nearly ten thousand people."

"3000 people, that's not like it."

"What's not like?"

The water thief looked back at Lu Zhonglian.

Lu Zhonglian frowned and said: "Your Majesty said, you Jinfan thieves can be called the strongest water thieves in this water system, but you only have 3000 people, how can you be called the strongest?"

These words seem to be puzzled, but they are actually flattering secretly. As expected, the water thief said proudly: "Your Majesty is right. Although there are only 3000 of us Jinfan thieves, all of them are elite soldiers and are familiar with water. If one counts as ten, a mere 3000 people can run rampant on this Jiangbiao, and our Jinfan bandits are the strongest!"

"What about the rest of the water thieves?"

"The rest of the water thieves are just mobs. If the leader of my family is willing, he can wipe out these water thieves."

Lu Zhonglian nodded: "I see."

The water thief led the way and continued: "It's just that the leader said that if the situation is cleared, you will need to go to other places to plunder in the future. It's too troublesome, so it's better to keep them. If the supplies are not enough, just go and rob them."

Lu Zhong even cupped his fists: "I really admire it."

Black eats black, it is indeed powerful.

Following the water thief for a while, the situation on the island in front of him has appeared in his eyes. When he came to the very center, there was the most magnificent building here, which was no different from the buildings in Nan County, except that there were many water pirates standing along the way.

"Wait, I'll go in and inform the leader of my family."

Lu Zhonglian clasped his fists together: "Brother Lao Lao."

After waiting for a while, the water thief came out and took Lu Zhonglian in, stepped into the living room, and saw a rough man sitting on a chair with his left foot on the chair, and holding a cup of tea in his right hand , the clothes on his body were only a thin cloth, and on the table beside him was a machete, especially between his eyebrows, full of heroism.

This person, fierce general!
Just by taking a look, Lu Zhonglian was sure that the person in front of him was the person he was looking for, and also the person His Majesty was looking for, and His Majesty was right.

"The envoy of the new kingdom, Lu Zhonglian, pays his respects to the leader of the Jinfan bandits."

The man put the teacup on the table next to him, looked at Lu Zhonglian who formally bowed 45 degrees, and had some doubts in his eyes: "Do you know me?"

Lu Zhonglian straightened up and smiled, "It's not that I know you, it's my Majesty who knows you. May I ask the leader, but his name is Gan Ning, and his name is Xingba?"

"Yes, I am Gan Ning."

Lu Zhonglian continued to clasp his fists: "Then my majesty is right. He said that General Gan is extremely brave and extremely brave. He is a first-class expert who is absolutely unparalleled when he charges into battle."

Gan Ning chuckled: "You're wrong, I'm not a general, I'm just a water thief."

"Your Majesty said that although General Gan is only a water thief, he must be a dragon and a phoenix among people. In the future, it is absolutely no problem to expand the territory and expand the land, and to be appointed as a marquis and worship general. One is yours."

Gan Ning could hear something: "You Xinguo want to recruit me?"

"Yes, we want to lead you into the new kingdom."

Gan Ning put the turban on the side: "You want to recruit me, why, I am a water thief, chic and happy."

Lu Zhonglian said with a smile: "Young knight-errants are high-spirited, naturally happy, but a man lives for a lifetime, so don't he just want to be a water thief and be happy? Not to mention leaving a name in history, but being named a marquis and a general, after the birth of a child, you will also be happy." It’s a deal, but will the child also become a water thief in the future?”

Gan Ning frowned.

Lu Zhonglian said again: "General Gan, Your Majesty said that you will definitely agree to General Gan. He knows you, he knows you, and he knows your bravery. It is true that your bravery is used as a water thief. What a pity."

Gan Ning stood up. He was much taller than Lu Zhonglian. He picked up the knife on the table beside him and waved it a few times. His light flickered, "Your Majesty Xinguo is so confident? So easy to come to persuade you to surrender , what if I don’t agree?”

"Your Majesty said, let General Gan consider it. General Gan's character is forthright and straightforward. If he beat around the bush with General Gan, he would definitely displease General Gan. So he cut straight to the point, because Xin Guo is sincere enough to invite General Gan to be my new leader. country's support."

At this moment, Gan Ning was a little surprised.

Lu Zhonglian said again: "General Gan, besides that, Your Majesty also asked me to send some things over, which are the best weapons and armor of our Xin Kingdom, which can be used by the Jinfan Bandits."

"Send me these?"

"Yes, Your Majesty said that even if General Gan is not willing, he is willing to be friends with General Gan."

Gan Ning pondered, Lu Zhonglian didn't speak anymore, he had finished speaking, now Gan Ning was mainly thinking about it.

After a while, Gan Ning put the knife on the table, with hesitation evident on his face.

"Mr. is right. I do have some ideas recently. To be a water thief, no matter how good you are, you are still just a water thief."

Lu Zhong nodded: "It would be great if the general had this idea."

"It's just that I don't know much about Xinguo yet."

"This is easy to handle. If it is possible, the general can directly send someone to visit the new country. The national strength of the new country will definitely satisfy the general. Moreover, His Majesty of the new country is a hero, a generation of wise kings, and will not just stay in the plains willingly. Jun, what he thinks is to compete in the world, if the general joins the new country, why not be vigorous and vigorous, it must be more heroic than the spirit of a knight-errant."
