Chapter 90 The Golden Cone Walk (1)

"The rumors are true, but Zhang Sanlang, how did you come back so easily?"

When he came to the Jiangning City residence, Li Qingchen saw Zhang Xing basking in the sun on the porch and chatting with everyone from a distance, so he asked in surprise.

"I used to make friends with literature, and when I talked to the mountains and rivers, I became bosom friends. After making friends, I will come back naturally." Zhang Xing stood up and answered seriously.

"What's going on?" Bai Yousi, who got off his horse from behind, entered the courtyard and asked coldly.

"Actually..." Zhang Xing's expression relaxed. "Actually, my acquaintance even wandered around until he was 40 years old, and he couldn't escape the arrogance and ignorance of a son of a family. After decades of family and country loss, he only hid. But I don’t know about it. I can only say that some parts of the outbreak are quite similar to me, and I was arrested in a fit of anger, but in fact, I also know the situation is here, and it’s impossible for him to come back. So I know that riding a tiger is hard to get off. And he is hard to get off when riding a tiger. Why didn’t I just want to survive? We all need each other and praise each other. After dawn, we took the opportunity to chat a few poems and proses, flatter each other, and each made a step, and it was over. .”

"I see."

Everyone woke up.

"If that's the case, then I really had malicious intentions before, and now I'm going to chop him off with a sword." Bai Yousi let out a long breath. "Save it and get in the way."

"Shut up the inspection." Zhang Xing hurriedly stopped him. "It's fine if you can kill him with a single sword, but what if you can't kill him? That's a real hindrance, and we're leaving on the fifth day of the twelfth lunar month, and we have to do some things, so there's no time to argue with him."

"What else?" Bai Yousi was surprised for a moment. "Is the food on our side already on par?"

Zhang Xing hurriedly told about letting go of the tidal flats and wild mountains in case of spring famine.

"I didn't know there was such a thing. The common people were so hard-pressed that they wanted wild vegetables as regular dishes, and river mussels and shrimps as regular food." Bai Yousi felt a little embarrassed.

"Since there is a shortage of food, I have to eat everything." It was Li Qingchen who persuaded me. "But sister Sisi, don't worry too much. We have done a lot of things this time, and it is good enough."

As the house raids unfolded, Li Twelve Lang and other core members knew the root of the matter to some extent.

Bai Yousi nodded, but he was still slightly dissatisfied: "Since there is such a thing, why didn't you mention it at the beginning?"

"I thought things might not go so smoothly, and the house raids would be tight, but since the house raids are so quick, it's better to do more." Zhang Xing replied earnestly. "Hurry up and tear down those mountain gates and beach fences, erect a monument, and make it clear that no one is allowed to be confined in private and compete with the people for food, that's all... It's really too late to do extra things."

"Not bad." Qin Bao reminded. "Chunri's plans don't wait for anyone."

"And it's always better to go back to celebrate the New Year." Li Qingchen also felt a little emotional.

Bai Yousi looked around, but finally he could only nod his head.

On the other hand, Zhang Xing did some calculations with his fingers, and then shook his head a little bit - without him, it was only 25-[-] days according to the plan.

However, fortunately, it is a common practice, and these state and county officials should not miscalculate the days.

It was the first day of the twelfth lunar month, but on the fourth day, that is, just after the inscriptions on the tidal flats and mountains were buried, and the grain had just been collected in Yangzijin, a group of patrolmen in brocade clothes hurriedly ended their trip—this trip was originally thought to be just Those who came to travel for a profit, suddenly became hard-working and extremely busy, which no one expected, but to be honest, there is no doubt that a big profit was made.

Among other things, the setting of eight horses per person and a large bag of gold and silver calligraphy and paintings made everyone feel embarrassed to spread them out, but put them on the boat early, and then everyone was just a horse, a knife and a suit of brocade A samurai small crown, made both sleeves feel like a breeze.

But it’s not enough to have a cool breeze in your sleeves, because there are still people who want to send it off, and once you send it off, you will inevitably have something in your sleeves... In addition to the special planners, several counties have sent their own garrison black ribbons to come over. This is poured into your sleeve Some yellow and white things, that pour some horse bits or something into your sleeves, it will make your sleeves dirty in a while, so you can't look at them.

Of course, there is also something special. Bai Yousibai inspectors have received several famous knives and swords that have been recorded in history books. The name of Zhang Xing and Zhang Baishou has already been spread. I sent a copybook written by Wang Zuojun, and even wanted Zhang Sanlang to write back another poem, but in front of so many people, Zhang Xing was really ashamed, so he couldn’t help but let it go—to put it bluntly, he copied so much, He himself vomited a little.

The only interesting thing is that Zhou Xingfan followed, his father Zhou Xiaoming didn't come to see him off, but Lai Zhan'er came over, touched Mr. Zhou's shoulder and talked for a long time.

However, the benefits of Lai Zhan'er's arrival are great. A group of military ships transporting ordnance cleared the way ahead, and countless grain ships, ship ships, and cargo ships followed.

It has existed for an unknown number of years, but the last time it was obviously dredged by the Prime Minister Youlong in "The Legend of the Heroine Li Yue" was that the Hangou used to connect the Huaihe River and the Yangtze River was naturally unimpeded.

No matter how unwilling and commemorative the knights in brocade clothes are, they can only bid farewell to Jiangdu and embark on their way home.

In other words, it started the second half of the mission.

After all, if the food is not sent to the Luokou warehouse, the work is theoretically not over.

The trip to Hangou was very smooth, but within a few days, they arrived at the Huai River where Lord Huaiyang disappeared. When they arrived here, the Xuzhou military ships either turned downstream on the spot, or went ashore on their own, while the ships from the seven counties in the east of the Yangtze River began to slow down. Go upstream along the Huai River.

According to the planners, they will turn to Huanshui upstream and rely on trackers to move forward. At the end of Huanshui, there is another artificial ditch that can reach the river directly.

And this Huanshui is actually a semi-artificial river that has been artificially diverted from Jishui and Suishui to ensure smooth flow throughout the year.

Zhang Xing doesn't know yet, if he wants to compare the Sui and Tang Dynasties Grand Canal in this other world, this must be the embryonic form of the Sui and Tang Dynasties Grand Canal, or the old road... But on the other hand, since the Grand Canal needs to be dredged and built, this shows that this period The waterway should be very narrow and narrow, and it will be extraordinarily hard.

Sure enough, when they reached Huanshuikou that day, there was news that there were thieves in front of them making trouble and cutting off Huanshui.

Everyone was stunned - the thief is not afraid, don't you see the Yitian sword here?But Huan Shui is so weak, once the trip is cut off, what will happen if Chun Ri's plan is delayed?
At that time, if you are dismissed from office at the slightest level, and punished for the crime if it is serious, wouldn't it be a waste of collecting these grains?

"How can it be?" On the largest ship on the Huaihe River, an impromptu meeting was hastily held, but Zhang Xing, who was named to speak, became a little lazy. "We write documents to the Zhongcheng to inform the situation here; you also write documents to the Nanya and the Ministry of Households to explain the situation; at the same time, let's invite the Shangguan together, or send a document to the local officials and generals along the way to let them quickly. Quickly suppressing the rebellion is...then let's go our own way, we should walk, we should kill, we should try our best to move forward. Otherwise, what else can we do?"

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, especially the officials in various counties, almost everyone looked pale.

In fact, this is where the problem lies - what about sailing in winter, what food is owed, the key is, even if you try your best, there may be no way, okay?

To put it bluntly, if you slash down with the Yitian Sword, you will kill all the thieves in the river, and I am afraid that the corpses will affect the speed of the boat.

What else can we do?
PS: Oh, good 'morning' everyone.
