Chapter 285
Wangjiang County is a fairly small county, which belongs to Tong'an County, and the city of Pan is not far upstream, along the river, it takes half a day to reach Liyang.

(Huancheng: It was called Chai Sang in the Han Dynasty, and the seat of Jiujiang County, which is also the place where Ren Shaoming died. The previous text has been changed)

There are not many ships docking in this city on weekdays, but today the city is full of tourists.

When the boat of Huang Lin and others returned to Wangjiang, the wharf was already full, and they had to park the passenger boat by the river, and then walked into the city.

The Yuelai Inn in the south of the city put up a sign that it was full early. After asking all the way, I found the last private courtyard in the Yaozu Inn in the east of the city.

The main reason is that the price is much more expensive than usual, otherwise the yard would not be here today.

Along the way, they also figured out what happened in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River.

The main reason for this matter is also related to Huang Lin.

At the end of last month, Xie Jianxian beheaded the first young member of the Iron Cavalry Association in Pancheng, leaving all the dragons in Jiujiang County without a leader.

This morning, the Changjiang Shuangjun of the Dajiang Society brought more than 70 large and small warships to raid Hewen Lake from the upper reaches, and wanted to forcibly occupy Pancheng, but Lin Shihong was already prepared and rushed more than [-] small warships from Poyang Lake , Blocking Dajianghui in the Yangtze River.

One is a Jianghu gang, and the other is a rebel rebel. Both sides have their own advantages and disadvantages.

There are fewer ships in Dajianghui, but most of them are medium-sized warships, and they occupy the upper reaches.

Although Lin Shihong has many more ships, not to mention all small boats, they are still in the lower reaches of the Yangtze River, so the two sides are currently in a stalemate.

Ordinarily, Lin Shihong, who is a rebel army, has much stronger strength in his hands, but because of this, he can't fight Da Jianghui with all his strength.

After all, there are Sui generals guarding Poyang County and Linchuan County, and even Yuzhang County only occupies the part of Jiujiang County in the north.

If it weren't for the fact that the meat was in front of him, based on the current situation, Lin Shihong's strategic goal should be to occupy Yuzhang first, and then go east to Poyang.

But Qingjiao Ren Shaoming died unexpectedly, and Jiujiang County had been cleaned up and left in vain before his eyes. How could he not be tempted by this?

What Lin Shihong never expected was that within two days after he sent someone to take over the city, Da Jianghui would kill him.

Therefore, Huang Lin and the others were blocked in Wangjiang County.

The straight-line distance from here to the Pegasus Ranch is more than a thousand miles, not to mention the mountains and rivers, which made Huang Lin miss the days when Xiao Jin was by his side very much.

Day after day.

In a blink of an eye, Huang Lin and the others had already stayed in Wangjiang County for three days. There were more and more people in the county town, and finally there was definite news from the city of Pan.

Dajiang Club has entered the city of Pan!
At first, Huang Lin was surprised that a rebel army could not defeat a Jianghu gang?
As the news became more and more detailed, he learned that there were Sui generals stationed in Yongxiu County in the south of Jiujiang County, and they were bought by the "Dragon King" Pei Yue, the leader of the Dajiang Association!
For the current Lin Shihong, Huangcheng can only be regarded as an enclave, so the exit of his warships entering and leaving the Yangtze River is Poyang Lake, not Hewen Lake. Coupled with the pressure of the Sui generals in Yongxiu County, Lin Shihong had to fight on two fronts. The supply route on the other side of the Yangtze River is longer.

Due to various factors, Lin Shihong made a decisive decision and transferred most of the warships on the Yangtze River back to Poyang Lake to study water. He concentrated his forces and captured Yongxiu City, and his forces entered Jiujiang County.

Although Huang Lin lost the city because of this, in Huang Lin's view, sooner or later, the city will be in Lin Shihong's pocket.

Compared with the rebel forces, Jianghu gangs are inherently lacking, what's more, Huang Lin remembers that Lin Shihong is a member of the Yinkui sect, a disciple of Yunyu Shuangxiu Pishouxuan, and the same generation as Zhu Yuyan.

At the end of the war, the smooth flow of the Yangtze River waterway was restored. When the four returned to the passenger ship and went upstream again, there was a race of thousands of sails on the river.

At the bow of the boat, Huang Lin was admiring the rare sight, when Kou Zhong's voice came from behind:
"Master Li, who are Pei Yue and Lin Shihong? It sounds like they are more powerful than Peng Xiaocai and Li Hongzhi."

"Who are these two people you are talking about?"

Huang Lin was stunned for a moment, he had never heard of these two people.

Kou Zhong touched his head, and asked with a puzzled look:

"When Xiaoling and I were in Yangzhou, we often heard people say that they are the most powerful rebel army now, and there are hundreds of people under them."

Huang Lin: There are hundreds of rebels, are you kidding me?

Casting a glance at Kou Zhong, he didn't want to answer at first, but he raised his head looking expectant, thought for a while, and then said:
"The two people you mentioned may have a little reputation near Yangzhou. A few hundred people are just ordinary bandits and water bandits, which are different from people like Pei Yue and Lin Shihong."

"Ah? What about Hu Liumiao, Wang Deren, and Yang Gongqing?"

Xu Ziling also came out of the cabin at some point, and asked after glaring at Kou Zhong.

The people they both talked about were the news that Kou Zhong overheard in the Chunfeng Building on weekdays, and they originally planned to find a rebel army to take refuge in.

"Heh, the people you mentioned, except for the name Yang Gongqing, I have never heard of the others before, so I think they are just some low-level people."

After hearing this, Kou Zhong was not only not disappointed, but hugged Xu Ziling with a big laugh and said:
"Look, Xiaoling, even Master Li has heard of Yang Gongqing's name, am I right?"

Xu Ziling glanced at him, and said lightly:

"We selected seven or eight people, and Master Li has only heard of this one, so he is not a very powerful person."

"Master Li, how do you think Yang Gongqing compares to Pei Yue and Lin Shihong?"

Kou Zhong first bowed his hands to Xu Ziling with a smile, and then asked Huang Lin.

"What? Yang Gongqing is your friend?"

Looking at the ships with the flags of the Da Jianghui on the river in the distance, Huang Lin casually dealt with Kou Zhong, his mind was on those ships.

He found that more than [-] ships of various types from the Dajiang Society seemed to be blocking the river for robbery.

For some ordinary merchant ships, they would send people close to each other and jump on the board, and then they would return to their own ship with a smile on their shoulders, and then there would be a small flag of the Dajiang Society on that ship.

However, there are also those who were robbed of their boats and changed into the flag of the Dajianghui, and then joined the ranks of robbers.

If a ship of a certain faction is attached, they will let it go after saying hello.

Seeing the boats of the Dajiang Society getting closer, Huang Lin said lightly:
"You two go into the cabin, don't come out if you have nothing to do."

Although the flag of the Bamboo Flower Gang was hung on this boat, the power of the Bamboo Flower Gang is mainly in Jiangdu County and its surrounding areas.

Kou and Xu sneaked into the cabin with winking eyes. Wei Zhenzhen never came out from the first to the cabin, which was also confessed by Huang Lin. After all, many disputes in the world are caused by beauty.

Not long after, a passenger ship with the flag of the Great River Society approached, and there were more than twenty people on board, all holding bows and crossbows.

There were seven or eight big men standing at the bow, one of them shouted:
"Sun Qing from a certain Dajiang society, under the order of Lord Long, investigate carefully. Where did you come from? Where are you going?"

Huang Lin put his hands behind his back and didn't even look at him. The boss of the boat quickly replied:

"Grandpa, little old man Hu, this boat is going from Yangzhou to Jiangxia, the old man understands the rules, please send someone to collect the wine money."

Huang Lin was not surprised by this. It was the same when he came here on Uncle Xu's passenger ship. Generally speaking, if there are flags of major gangs, the tolls will be much less.

Sun Qing on the opposite boat didn't say much. After taking a look at Huang Lin, he beckoned someone to set up the board, and sent someone directly to the stern of Huang Lin's side of the boat to collect money from Lao Hu.

Lao Hu handed over a bunch of copper coins, and then hung the small flag that Da Jiang would give on the cabin roof, so that no one would rob and charge until Jiang Xia.

Both money and goods were settled, and Ssangyong and Wei Zhenzhen in the cabin also breathed a sigh of relief.

Waiting for people to return to the boat to close the board, Sun Qing waved his hand, and the boat left Huang Lin's car to look for another target.

Probably because Huang Lin's demeanor was too unique, Sun Qing glanced back.

Coincidentally, a gust of river wind blew past, and the curtain of the cabin was blown up, revealing Wei Zhenzhen.

Wei Zhenzhen originally had exquisite facial features, and these days she ate and drank with Huang Lin, her face became ruddy, and now she has put on new clothes that fit her, and her temperament is graceful and soft, she stupefied Sun Qing immediately .

He was just an ordinary leader of the Dajiang Society. He had never seen such a temperamental woman, staring blankly at Wei Zhenzhen who appeared and disappeared. He didn't recover until the wind stopped and the curtains stopped fluttering.

Sun Qing really wanted to snatch the woman over, but the person at the bow of the opposite boat looked like a person from the Jianghu, and he was also flying the flag of the Bamboo Flower Gang.

His face was tangled, and a person next to him leaned over and whispered:
"Brother Sun, have you taken a fancy to that beautiful lady?"

This person is Sun Qing's deputy, named Li You, the two have worked together for several years and get along very well.

"So what? It's just an ordinary passenger ship on the other side, but it's flying the flag of the Bamboo Flower Gang. They belong to the Eight Gangs and Ten Guilds. If things get serious, we can't stand it as the two of you."

Although Sun Qing coveted Wei Zhenzhen's beauty, he was still dizzy and knew what to do and what not to do.

"Brother Sun hasn't entered the city for the past few days, there is a news that you don't know yet."

"Oh? What's the news?"

Sun Qing has been fighting in the river for the past few days, and it is true that he has not entered the city yet, so he is a little surprised to hear this.

Then I heard Li You say:

"After the second master entered the city yesterday, he wanted to collect all the beauties in Huangcheng. The woman just now looks like the best. If we can offer her up, Brother Sun can at least get the position of incense master."

"really?"

Sun Qing was greatly moved. Although he coveted Wei Zhenzhen, it was nothing compared to his promotion.

Seeing that Sun Qing was quite moved, Li You quickly said:
"Can I still lie to you? The passenger ship is only flying the flag of the Bamboo Flower Gang, and it's not a boat of the Bamboo Flower Gang. If the second leader is satisfied, it's nothing to worry about."

The Tiger Lord that Li You talks about is Pei Yan, the second head of the Dajiang Society, who is greedy and lustful, and is the younger brother of the president, Longjun Pei Yue.

Seeing that Sun Qing was still hesitating, Li You added fuel to the fire again:

"Brother Sun, you have made countless contributions in this war. Although there are rewards, but"

He was interrupted by Sun Qing raising his hand before he finished speaking. At this time, he had already made up his mind.

Li You was right, he had been in the Dajiang Society for many years, and he had been promoted from an ordinary gang member to the leader within a year, but even though he made countless contributions in the future, he was still unable to make further progress.

Thinking of this, Sun Qing turned his head and said:

"Let the brothers drive the boat over. If you don't know the details of the person at the bow, don't approach it for now."

"Yes!"

Li You was overjoyed when he heard that, if Sun Qing was promoted, he could also climb up.

Dang even went to explain to everyone in the boat.

Sun Qing took a deep breath, calmed his mind, then drew his sword and raised his breath, pointed at the boat where Huang Lin was on and shouted:
"Old man Hu, stop the boat!"

The sound suddenly sounded, making everyone on the nearby boats look over. Seeing this, the members of the Dajianghui all put aside their affairs and surrounded Huang Lin's car.

Huang Lin turned his head suddenly, stared at Sun Qing coldly, and then said softly:

"Everyone, get into the boat to avoid Liu Shi, Xiao Zhong goes to draw in the oars and lower the sails, and Xiao Ling lowers the baffle on the cabin window."

The sound only echoed between the boats, and it was almost inaudible from the gauge.

Immediately afterwards, with a wave of Huang Lin's hand, a two-foot long spear sprang out of the cabin and fell into his hand.

Seeing this, the boats of the Dajiang Club leaning towards this side bowed their bows and set up arrows one after another.

But then he saw that the boat retracted the oars and started to lower the sails, the speed of the boat was greatly reduced, and he didn't seem to want to resist, so he loosened the bowstring a little.

Sun Qing, who was closest to them, suddenly lit up, thinking that the other party was an embroidered pillow, and he looked like a master, but he didn't expect to be so cowardly.

"Grandfather, the young one has already paid for the wine and also took the small flag of the Guild. I don't know what else to check?"

Hu, the boss of the ship, felt aggrieved, but had to go out of the cabin to ask questions.

"I suspect that the woman in your boat is Lin Shihong's concubine, stop the boat honestly, otherwise don't blame me for being cruel!"

Sun Qing made an excuse at will.

His words made Wei Zhenzhen in the cabin turn pale instantly, and Xu Ziling and Kou Zhong, who had just lowered the sail and entered the cabin, were instantly enraged.

The three of them understood why the accident happened.

"Hmph! Dajiang will act like this?"

At the bow of the ship, Huang Lin thrust down the spear in his hand, and the deck was not damaged at all, but the river exploded from the bottom of the ship to both sides.

This hand made Sun Qing's pupils shrink suddenly, and the hand holding the knife trembled accordingly.

Kicked the iron plate!
Just when he didn't know how to end it, a cold snort came from not far upstream.

"Oh, I know how to act, so why do I need others to comment."

This majestic voice made Sun Qing feel relieved immediately, the second master is also on the river? !

"Dragon Lord? Tiger Lord?"

Huang Lin frowned, stared sideways at a large ship in the middle of the river, and spoke loudly.

The voice centered on him, spread far away, and didn't attenuate even when it reached the big ship.

Standing on that boat was a big, burly man, with a bald head, broad face, thick chin, wearing a black robe, quite imposing, about forty years old, he was Tiger Lord Pei Yan.

After Huang Lin's voice came here, his expression changed involuntarily.

The voice came here from forty feet away, but it didn't weaken at all. It's hard to measure the strength of this person.

A look of hesitation flashed across his face, and it turned into ferocity in an instant.

Anyway, offended, it is better to kill Suanqiu!

On this big river, even if Ning Daoqi came, he would not be afraid!

Immediately give orders to those around you:

"Let the brothers prepare the trebuchet and other things, I will kill him!"

"slow!"

A person beside him stepped forward and pressed the order to help the crowd, frowned and said to Pei Yan:
"Second leader, that person's strength is unfathomable. We have just captured the city of Pan, why not."

"Bang~"

Before he finished speaking, Pei Yan swung his palm over, and the man's head exploded like a watermelon, red, white, and yellow splashed everywhere.

"Are you teaching me what to do?"

Pei Yan didn't even look at the fallen headless corpse, but stared fixedly at Huang Lin.

"Aren't you going to deliver the order?"

"Yes Yes Yes"

The servants were ordered to run away quickly.

Seeing this, Pei Yan spoke again:
"It's your Tiger Master Pei Yan. If you are sensible, put down your weapon and wait. Otherwise, I will call someone to attack immediately. Let's see how many times you can stand it."

Huang Lin felt helpless. He had heard the conversation between Sun Qing and that person just now, and he was really going to be surrounded. With Pei Yan's temperament, Wei Zhenzhen would definitely not be able to keep it, and it would definitely affect Ssangyong.

He glanced around the surface of the river, looked at a few gaps, took a long breath, and moved his lips a few times.

Ssangyong and Wei Zhenzhen in the cabin, as well as Lao Hu and others in the back cabin, grabbed the things at hand to stabilize their bodies.

Afterwards, Huang Lin didn't answer, and under the surge of true energy, the small passenger ship suddenly jumped up the river like an arrow from the string, splashing high water from the stern.
