Chapter 96 Test
Dameng Town did not lose its pace because of Huang Gai's arrival. Although Zhuge Liang, Zhang Zhao, and Guo Tu were still skeptical about Huang Gai's purpose of defecting, they remained calm on the surface.
Huang Gai seemed to have come to Dameng Town wholeheartedly, helping Zhuge Liang to train his soldiers conscientiously every day.
Early that morning, he found Ning Mengya.
"General Huang, do you have anything to do with me?"
Huang Gai led Ning Mengya to the military camp to inspect, "Please, my lord, inspect the training results of the final general."
Huang Gai was still very polite to his lord Ning Mengya.
In the barracks, the soldiers were training in an orderly formation. Ning Mengya nodded with satisfaction and said to Huang Gai: "General Huang is amazing! He has trained these soldiers in an orderly manner."
Ning Mengya spoke politely, but to be honest, the effectiveness of his training was far less than that of Zhuge Liang. I don't know why, but every time Zhuge Liang trained these soldiers, Ning Mengya could clearly feel that the morale and combat effectiveness of the soldiers were better. Be stronger!
But no matter what, Huang Gai was an eighth-rate general who took the initiative to defect to him. He was a talented person, so Ning Mengya was very polite to Huang Gai.
Huang Gai smiled and said: "My lord, I will find some words strange."
"Oh? What happened to General Huang?"
Huang Gai said: "These soldiers, most of them only know General Zhuge but not the lord..."
As he said that, he raised his eyes and glanced at Ning Mengya, but Ning Mengya had no expression on her face, which made Huang Gai feel a little strange.
"My lord wants to dominate the world in the future. What if his soldiers are not loyal to my lord? General Zhuge is indeed powerful, but his sharpness will inevitably make his soldiers forget the existence of the lord..."
"Well, General, I have no other intention. I just hope that the lord can come to the military camp to inspect and encourage the soldiers when he has time, so that the soldiers know who the lord of Dameng Town is."
Ning Mengya thought for a while and said: "General Huang is right."
Huang Gai nodded: "Then, my lord, please take your time to inspect. The general will go to train his troops first."
"Okay!"
After Huang Gai left, Ning Mengya also left with her hands behind her back.
Looking at Ning Mengya's back, Huang Gai smiled slightly.
A master of great achievements... a master of martial arts... As long as Ning Mengya plants these seeds, any ambitious lord will probably not allow his subordinates to outshine him.
Military power... has always been the top priority among a party's power!
Losing military power means that her position as the master of Dameng Town may be handed over to others at any time. No one will hear these words without causing any disturbance in their heart!
Today, he will plant these seeds for Ning Mengya first. After a while, he will find a way to let Ning Mengya delegate power to him... Huang Gai has already thought of all the plans in his heart.
……
Inside the meeting hall.
Zhuge Liang, Guo Tu, and Zhang Zhao listened to Ning Mengya's words and couldn't help but become more sure that Huang Gai's purpose of coming here was impure!
Guo Tu smiled and said: "This General Huang is a little too hasty. Even before the matter between the two protagonists of Dameng Town is settled, he starts to divide people's hearts, haha!"
Zhang Zhao and Zhuge Liang also looked at each other and smiled.
If Huang Gai knew what he said to Ning Mengya, he would be betrayed by Ning Mengya, and his lungs would probably explode with anger.
At this time, several people were talking about Huang Gai as if they were talking about clowns.
Zhang Zhao thought for a while and said: "I have an idea to try and see where General Huang is from."
Zhuge Liang asked curiously: "What can you do, sir?"
...Huang Gai has been training in the army as usual these days, and Ning Mengya often comes to inspect the army in person. It seems that the seeds he planted in Ning Mengya's heart have begun to sprout.
As expected, suspicion and distrust began to appear between them!
"By the way, General Huang."
Ning Mengya found Huang Gai and said, "Follow me to the meeting hall in a moment. We will discuss the attack plan."
Huang Gai was stunned for a moment and said: "My lord...are you going to go out to attack now?"
Shouldn’t we continue to develop internal affairs and military strength?
Ning Mengya nodded and said: "Well, we have to send troops to attack other territories now. There are still some towns in the north of Luoyang that have not been conquered. We have been developing for a while, so we plan to take the initiative to send troops to attack other territories... Go first Come to the conference hall and discuss it together.”
Huang Gai said, "Okay!"
Soon, Huang Gai followed Ning Mengya to the meeting hall of Dameng Town.
A huge map hangs in the meeting hall, which outlines many territories that are about to be attacked.
Zhuge Liang sat in the first place, with Zhang Zhao and Guo Tu next to him. After Ning Mengya and Huang Gai arrived, Zhang Zhao began to introduce: "We plan to attack these six territories, Changsheng Dynasty, Buzhou Dynasty, and Xianhe Dynasty. The territory is fifty miles west of Jiming Town, and the distance is relatively close, so the attack is more certain.”
Huang Gai hurriedly said: "I heard that we have just fought a big battle, and our strength has not yet recovered, and various places have just entered the reconstruction stage. Is it a bit too hasty to invade now?"
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
"Why don't you wait for a while to develop, your troops and horses are strong, and you have enough troops before attacking outside?"
Zhuge Liang smiled and said: "General Huang's words are wrong. The reconstruction stage is only the areas of Yuhuang Town and Jiming Town that need to be rebuilt."
"Our capital city has not suffered any damage, and our troops are sufficient. There is no need to worry about the food, grass and baggage."
"If we don't take the initiative to attack outside now, once the opponent develops or recruits stronger generals, it will be much more difficult for us to attack again."
"By then it will become more difficult to unify the north, so we should not give our opponents any chance to breathe."
"My lord, do you think so?"
Huang Gai looked at Ning Mengya. Ning Mengya was silent for a while and said, "What General Zhuge said makes sense."
Huang Gai sighed silently.
Zhuge Liang said: "Well, let's decide which of these territories to attack first... I suggest attacking the Buzhou Dynasty first."
Huang Gai immediately said: "The Zhou Dynasty is the farthest from Jiming Town, so why do you want to be far away? Why don't you attack the Changsheng Dynasty and Xianhe Dynasty first?"
Seeing the nervous look on Huang Gai's face, Zhuge Liang really didn't expect that he would try out Huang Gai casually. He thought he would have to try it a few more times.
He glanced at Guo Tu.
Guo Tu smiled and said: "Because the opponent is relatively far away, as long as we attack it, the other two territories will be available to us within our encirclement."
"What's the point of this?" Huang Gai retorted, "Lord, we should move from near to far, so that we can be completely sure and not take risks easily!"
Zhuge Liang said: "It's settled like this. We will lead the troops to attack tomorrow. With General Huang here, why worry about not being able to take down the opponent?"
"General Huang will set off with me tomorrow!"
Huang Gai's face looked a little unnatural, and he hesitated: "This..."
