Pingyang Fu of the Red Chamber

Chapter 250
Luoyunhou Mansion in the capital city,

Already started to pack the luggage and materials, ready to pack the truck, and then began to transport them to the two buildings on the Anhu Wharf.

Including Dongcheng Daying also began to pack up military supplies and supplies, and the 2000 men and horses in the early stage had already moved the crossbows and arrows to the two building ships.

Zhang Jinyu also began to arrange for the sergeants in the mansion who needed to stay behind, as well as the maids and servants who went south with them.

While Zhang Jinyu was busy,
A large fleet arrived at Anhu Wharf. It was the water army dispatched by the Governor of Water Transport. Eighteen building boats and [-] fighting ships were ordered by the emperor to collect the water army ships of the guards and send them to Anhu Wharf to stand by. .

Shen Xueshi, governor of the Canal Transport, received the secret order, and he also ordered the commanders of the Canal Transport Guards in the northern, middle, and southern sections of the canal to immediately lead all the main building ships and naval ships to assemble in Fuling County. Those who violated the order will be dealt with by military law.

Because we are well aware of the corruption of the Water Transport Guards, the Louchuan has ten main Louchuan warships and 500 fighting ships according to the three sections of the canal. The Louchuan can carry 300 people, and the fighting ships can carry [-] people. , respectively control the safety of the three sections of the canal.

However, the long-term military salary of the guards and the corruption of the generals in the army, many ships are in disrepair, leaking, leaking, corroded and corroded, and half of the water can be guaranteed.

After the order was issued, the commander of the third section of the water transport brought the only remaining boats to the camp in Fuling County, and when they arrived at the camp, they rushed to the Governor's Mansion non-stop, crying poorly in front of Shen Xueshi.

Shen Xueshi didn't get used to them either, he also took the guards to the camp to overhaul the ship himself, and asked them to follow him.

Fortunately, the navy ships that came here were in good condition. More than half of the battleships were dispatched after a simple cleaning and repair, including the escort ships.

Looking at the three commanders in front of him, apart from Li Cong, who had been promoted by himself, and the commander of the northern section who had already taken refuge in him, Yan Cong, the last commander in the south of the Yangtze River, was left.

"Li Cong, don't take down this rebellious party for the governor!"

"It's the governor."

Just when the few people were stunned, Li Cong drew out his knife and slashed at Yan Cong's leg. The commander of the Jinling Guards in the southern section of the Luang Water Transport fell to the ground and howled.

The personal guards brought by Shen Xueshi were also directly dealt with by Shen Xueshi's personal soldiers. The attack was merciless, and the person in the north was so frightened that he broke into a cold sweat. Luckily, Xindao contacted the governor early.

Looking at the kind face of the governor, it was unexpectedly so ruthless.

"Shen Xueshi, you are crazy. Can the court spare you for harming your subordinates so much?"

Yan Cong also sternly shouted on the ground.

He had some intentions of embracing death to survive, but Shen Xueshi sneered and said to Yan Cong;

"General Yan, this old man has repeatedly asked you to seek refuge with the Dudu, but you don't take the Dudu seriously. Do you know that today will happen?"

This person obediently obeys the tune and does not listen to the announcement. He is not clear with the big clans in the south of the Yangtze River. It is really a serious trouble for him to prevent him from controlling the river transportation. Now he can kill multiple birds with one stone.

Yan Cong was also in a cold sweat, and it looked like he couldn't leave, so he also laughed,
"Your Excellency, it's amazing. There's still such a good excuse for hurting your subordinates so much. The subordinates are just doing nothing. Commander Lu, we are not the same. Only General Li was single-handedly promoted by the Governor. Didn't he clear it out?" Alien."

Lu Yi, the commander of the Northern Guard Army of Water Transport, turned pale and cursed in his heart, then hurried over and knelt down,

"Your Excellency, the last general Lu Yi is loyal to you. He was a little arrogant before, but the last general never dared to disobey your lord's inspection. General Yan obviously has a different heart. Who doesn't know that the river in the south of the Yangtze River is full of fat and oil? It’s the water transport center, and they say they’re eating for a living, if you say that, you’re going to starve to death in the north.”

"You, you, you are spitting blood."

Yan Cong couldn't believe that a colleague who was close to him before would do this.

"What are you? Your humble duty and loyalty can be learned from heaven and earth. This time, my lord ordered all the navy to come to the governor's camp. The last general dared not delay. After clearing the camp, the warships led eight buildings and ten fighting ships to come here. There are two One battleship was damaged and has not been replenished, and there are ten remaining battleships, which are used for patrolling the canal."

"That's true. I didn't expect that the navy under your command is still complete, and you have intentions."

"My lord, I have learned a lesson from you, I am ashamed to be the last general."

Commander Lu also knelt and kowtowed.

"Get up. The governor understands in his heart."

"Thank you sir."

Lu Yi also stood up while wiping his sweat and stood aside. Seeing this, Yan Cong finally roared;

"Lord Shen, you have to think about it. Behind the last general is the Zhen family in Jinling. Don't say you couldn't think of it?"

Shen Xueshi also took a deep look at Yan Cong, and said softly;
"Yes, the Zhen family is deeply rooted in the south of the Yangtze River, and the trees are big and leafy, but he can be bigger than the court and the emperor, but he is still a grasshopper after autumn. If the governor can't manage the water transportation, the next time the old man will be decapitated Now, such a catastrophe, the old man dare not slack off in the slightest, you know? Huh?"

After Shen Xueshi finished speaking, he asked again slowly,
"For the sake of your hard work in water transportation, you still have some last words."

Yan Cong was already incoherent in fright,
"My lord, my lord, you can't kill me, you can't."

Shen Xueshi shook his head and said;

"Li Cong, pull it down."

"It's an adult."

Li Cong personally led the army to pull Commander Yan out of the camp, and stopped abruptly with a scream.

Then Li Cong walked in covered in blood, and replied;

"My lord, the traitor has bowed his head."

"Okay, Li Cong continues to train the Governor's Guard camp."

"Yes, my lord."

After Shen Xueshi gave his orders, he saw General Lu shrunk aside, and he said in relief;
"Lu Jiangjun, you immediately lead all the sailors to the Anhu Wharf in the capital, and wait for Luo Yunhou's order. Remember that everything is subject to Luo Yunhou. Don't make mistakes. Of course, my little brother won't say anything. Something. Do you remember?"

"It's my lord, remember the humble position, everything is based on Luo Yunhou's orders."

"Very good, let's go now."

"It's an adult."

Then, General Lu Yi walked out of the camp tremblingly, and before he could stand still, he immediately ordered the whole army to set sail to the Anhu Wharf in the capital city to stand by, and then boarded the building boat, not wanting to stop here for a moment.

Soon, in one night, they arrived at the Anhu Wharf in the capital city, where they stationed, and went ashore to bury pots and make meals.

And send someone to report to the Houfu in the capital.

Zhang Jinyu of the Hou Mansion is still lazily thinking about what to do when he goes to the south of the Yangtze River this time. For Zhao Si's people, there are 5000 guards in the first guard, and there are at least 3 guards staying in the old palace.

As for the Jiangnan camp, it can be regarded as the decisive force in the south of the Yangtze River. There are 5 infantry troops, 6 cavalry troops, and 3 deputy troops, totaling 2 people. , a little less than [-] people show up, it’s not a worry, but it’s better to hold it in your hands, so let’s take the Jiangnan Daying first.

After thinking about it, I became motivated and kept urging the people in the house to start loading the ship.

"Be quick, the boat will be packed tonight, and we can leave at any time tomorrow."

"It's Lord Hou."

The people in the house were busy speeding up the progress, and suddenly Ning Bian ran over from the door, and said;

"Master Hou, the wharf guard navy is here. A total of 1000 building search ships and [-] fighting ships have arrived. Each ship can only carry [-] troops. We only need [-] people on each ship to transport horses."

Zhang Jinyu also stood up and asked in surprise;

"Why did it come so fast, who is leading the army?"

Ningbian repeated the words of the navy messenger outside the gate,
"Returning to Lord Hou, it is Lu Yi, the commander of the guards in the northern section of the water transport. He was ordered by Governor Shen Xueshi to come here to wait for dispatch. I heard that the governor has dispatched all the battleships of the northern, central and southern sections of the guards. Now they are waiting for orders at Anhu Wharf."

"Damn it, Old Brother Shen is still very interesting, how did our camp in Ningbian arrange it?"

"Leave 1 pioneer battalion soldiers in the Hou's mansion, and 500 pioneer soldiers in the camp outside the city. The remaining [-] troops plus the [-] guards of the Hou's mansion will all go to the south of the Yangtze River."

Ningbyen also expressed his preliminary plan, and wanted to keep the place where Dongcheng would stay. Zhang Jinyu also knew what Ningbyon meant, and it didn't matter after thinking about it, so he nodded and said;

"You arrange people to go to Daying to explain to Duan Hong. The transportation will start tonight, and then first mobilize 3000 people to go to the dock to stand by immediately, and I will arrive later."

"Yes, Lord Hou."

After Ning Bian agreed, he immediately turned back and left the Hou's residence.

Zhang Jinyu is also cautious. After all, the river is not land. If you get caught, everything will stop. Although the old camp has a lot of water, it is definitely not as good as the people who float on the river all the year round. After thinking about it, I still can’t stable.

He took the cloak and walked out of the attic, called his guards, and left the Marquis Mansion, ready to go to the pier. As soon as he left the mansion, he saw that Yongbian had prepared the horses. .

"Drive. Drive!"

Run all the way.

At Anhu Wharf, Lu Guangju also brought the guards of the capital wharf to help bury the pot and make food, and he squatted down in an open space with Commander Lu Yi and ate.

In the past few days, Lu Guangju was also reprimanded by letters from the governor's office, but luckily he was not punished.

Seeing the gloomy face of Commander Lu, he was eating and drinking water in a dull manner, and the jar of good wine in front of him did not touch a drop.

Naturally, Lu Guangju didn't touch it himself, so he tried to ask;

"General Lu, why are you so depressed, but the humble staff doesn't treat you well."

"Hey, it's okay. It's good to have these meals here, but the weather of water transportation has changed. By the way, do you know how the capital Luoyunhou is?"

Lu Jiangjun asked casually after eating, which General Lu's face changed when he heard it, and he looked around and said in a low voice.

"General Lu, it's better to be careful. That Marquis Luo Yun is said to be the one and only winner, and he and the governor are sworn brothers."

"what!"

When General Lu Yi heard this, he was so frightened that the rice bowl in his hand fell to the ground, and he shouted in shock.
