Chapter 227

(Yesterday's red ticket reached a new high, reaching 511! I love you all! Continue to ask for red tickets to collect)

The October sun had already begun to sleep in. When he slowly climbed up from the eastern horizon, Li Xian, Chen Que and Zhu Yishi had already been drifting on the water for a long time.Li Xian no longer remembers how much wine he drank last night, nor how much he vomited out. Now his strongest feeling is not sleepiness but hunger, perhaps because he vomited too much and his stomach is empty.

He asked the soldiers who were punting the boat to stop, then turned his head and asked Chen Que'er, "Did you bring any food on board? If you didn't bring any food, did you bring a fishing rod?"

Chen Que'er spread out his hands and said, "The general pulled us out of the bed in such a hurry, he must have brought nothing with him."

Li Xian stroked his slightly deflated stomach and sighed: "It's really hard to have nothing to eat when you're hungry. The pain in my heart is stronger than the pain in my stomach, but I'm staggering on this boat." It feels very comfortable to lie down shaking, but I don’t want to go back, and I haven’t finished watching what I should watch.”

Zhu Yishi smiled and said, "What's so embarrassing?"

He put away his robe and only put on his close-fitting clothes. He stood beside the boat and smiled a few times: "I grew up by the water since I was a child. When I was a child, it was hard for me to go fishing in the river."

Li Xian made an analogy with a smile and said: "Children who grow up by the water play fish in the water, just like children on the plain who pee and fart in mud and collapse pits."

Lying on the bow deck, he looked sideways at Zhu Yishi and asked earnestly, "Brother Hongyuan, did you ever play the game of sitting on the sand and farting when you were young?"

Zhu Yishi smiled embarrassingly: "This is really not there."

"So have you ever farted in the water while snorkeling?"

Li Xian asked in hot pursuit.

Zhu Yishi sighed, glanced at Li Xian and said, "This... is true."

Li Xian said with nostalgia: "I also tried it. Farting and collapsing bubbles in the water are more interesting than collapsing in the sand."

Zhu Yishi sighed in his heart, general, general, why did you play fart all this time in your childhood?

After exercising his body, Zhu Yishi said to Li Xian: "General, I will catch a fat fish in a while. Although there is no food on board, there is wine. I have long heard that your grilling skills, General, are unrivaled in the world. People who have eaten it are full of praise. Master Zhang once said, General, you have three unique skills, archery, swordsmanship, and barbecue. Compared with barbecue, archery and swordsmanship should be in the back row. Today Come out in a hurry, unexpectedly I can taste the taste of the general's grilled fish."

Li Xian reached out his hand to touch the deerskin bag that never leaves his body, and said: "It's no problem. The biggest advantage of me is that I am lazy to cook, so I usually carry the seasoning for barbecue with me. But I don't want to mention these three tricks in the future. How dare I say that I can use a knife in front of my master Daxi Changru, and there is still a Wenjie in this world. The sword skills are not worth mentioning. As for the archery skills, Ye Dafang is the first female class, and the archery skills seem to be somewhat better than mine."

Zhu Yishi smiled and said, "Since Master Zhang said so, it must be reasonable."

After speaking, he made a jumping posture and was about to jump into the water. Li Xian just said, "Actually, my grandpa also has three specialties. They are delicious, lazy, and thick-skinned."

Hearing this sentence, Zhu Yishi's posture changed when he jumped up, and he fell into the water in an extremely ugly way, splashing a big wave and wet the clothes of Li Xian and Chen Que'er.He obviously wanted to jump into the water like a chic fish, but unfortunately because of Li Xian's words, his limbs deformed and he fell into the water.Li Xian wiped off the water stains on his face, with a confused and puzzled look on his face: "Seeing that Zhu Yishi also entered the water, I became more and more suspicious that he was bragging when he said just now how good he was in the water. suspicion."

Chen Que'er nodded and said, "That makes sense..."

In fact, Zhu Yishi's water skills are indeed very good. Although the posture of entering the water is so ugly that even he himself is ashamed. It is estimated that when he was five years old, he jumped into the water much more beautifully than he does now, but he only adjusted a little in the water. He dived out of the water like a fish, until Li Xian and Chen Que'er could no longer see his shadow in the water, nor did he show his head out to take a breath.

According to Li Xian's understanding, it is already remarkable for a person to be able to swim in the water for a minute and a half.He counted softly from the moment Zhu Yishi entered the water, until Zhu Yishi came out of the water when he counted to one hundred and six, and held a big fat fish in one hand, and swam back by paddling with the other.

"General, do you think this fish is fat enough?"

After holding it in for so long, he actually didn't blush or breathe.

Li Xian exclaimed: "Sure enough, the reputation is well-deserved!"

Zhu Yishi was stunned for a moment before realizing that he was praising himself. He threw the big fish into the boat: "One fish is not enough, I'll touch a few more."

……

……

After leaving the water in a small area, Li Xian sighed while gnawing on the grilled fish: "The terrain of the water is so good that there are places where soldiers can ambush everywhere. As long as Feng Xiaoci can be brought into the water, I would like to Take a look at what our navy has been training for in the past few months."

"If Feng Xiaoci is in a hurry, he can only attack from the water! The terrain of the mountain stronghold is too dangerous, and the troops on the attacking side can't use it at all. Hundreds of people attacking upwards is purely death."

Chen Que'er said: "By the way, General, just now you said that Feng Xiaoci was forced to attack at the place we just left, is it Yuncheng?"

Li Xian smiled and said: "Actually, it's not Yuncheng, but the people in Yuncheng. Moreover, we have accidentally inserted a will, Feng Xiaoci has to be anxious if not in a hurry."

A few days later, Yuncheng.

You Houwei's army felt the wind and dust all the way outside the city of Dongping County. The county guard Wu Xingzhi and the county magistrate Zhang Sanheng, who had received the news a few days ago, were waiting outside the city with the officials of Dongping County, watching from a distance on the official road ahead. Dust and smoke covered the sky and knew that it was Youhouwei's army that had arrived, Wu Shengzhi and Zhang Sanheng looked at each other and smiled wryly.The two people were thinking about the same things at this moment, they were both regretting the so much grain in the granary in Yuncheng and the so much money they had to spend.

If it had been known two days earlier that the Youhouwei soldiers had come to suppress the bandits in Juyeze, how could they have suffered such a huge loss?

A few days ago, the messenger sent by the imperial court was late, because of the serious banditry along the road, he was delayed for a few days so that he arrived two days later than Li Xian's men.After learning that His Majesty personally sent troops to destroy the thieves in Yanyun Village, both Wu Shengzhi and Zhang Sanheng sighed.What a pity, as long as you stick to it for five or six days, you can cooperate inside and outside to wipe out those rampant thieves in Yanyun Village. The more they think about it, the more they feel distressed.

Because of distress, both of them ignored a very important thing.It wasn't until Feng Xiaoci, General of Youhouwei asked, that the two of them remembered it, and then they looked shocked and flustered.

"This time, the general was ordered to suppress the rebels. The necessary food and supplies should be allocated to me as soon as possible. The general will get rid of the gang of thieves as soon as possible, so that I can return to report to His Majesty as soon as possible."

"This one……"

Wu Shengzhi looked at Feng Xiaoci with an extremely ugly expression, but didn't know what to say for a while.In the end, it was Zhang Sanheng who had talked to Yu Wenshu after all, and knew that these seemingly cold generals were actually thoughtful people, so he immediately said solemnly and even with a little sadness: "The general doesn't know something!"

He pointed to the half-collapsed west gate tower of Yuncheng and said: "Just a few days before the general arrived, the thieves from Juyeze Yanyunzhai suddenly came out to attack my Yuncheng. He and the common people fought hard to fight back, and even killed a head of Yanyun Village, but because of the disparity in the strength of the troops, the thieves broke through the city gate. And I took advantage of the time when the thieves were looting the property, and then organized a counterattack to kill the thieves. It's just...just...the granary is empty."

"what!"

Feng Xiaoci's eyes widened sharply: "There is no food in Yuncheng?"

Wu Shengzhi was taken aback by Feng Xiaoci's sharp gaze, and said embarrassingly: "There is no food." He lowered his head a little ashamed, but suddenly realized that Feng Xiaoci was too merciless, not to ask about the thieves' siege of the city , Even if it is a polite condolence, I have to say a few words, but I only care about food and grass!Thinking of this, he raised his head again, looked at Feng Xiaoci and said, "I have done my best, and the people in the city will testify."

Feng Xiaoci was just anxious and surprised just now, because the lack of food in Yuncheng was a huge problem for You Houwei.He led the army to Yuncheng a few days earlier than originally planned. One, he wanted to make a surprise attack, and the thieves were caught off guard.Second, it was because his army did not carry too much food and grass at all.How could he not be in a hurry when he just arrived in Dongping County and got such bad news?

Seeing the change in Wu Shengzhi's expression, Feng Xiaoci immediately reacted.

"Those damn thieves!"

He pretended to be angry and said: "Don't worry, my lord, this time the general will definitely kill all the thieves in Yanyun Village. Has the thieves attacked Dongping County a few days ago, and the lord has reported to the court? If not, This general is willing to join hands with the Fujun to perform."

This is a gesture of goodwill!

Wu Shengzhi reacted immediately: "Thank you, General!"

Feng Xiaoci hurriedly waved his hands and said, "This is just an official business, why should the lord thank me? It's just... our army has no food, how can the soldiers fight with thieves with their stomachs full? Look, lord..."

Wu Shengzhi shook his head helplessly: "I can only say, try my best... If the general doesn't believe it, you can go to the city and see that the treasury and granary have all been taken away by thieves!"

"How many soldiers are the bandits?"

Feng Xiaoci asked.

"No less than one hundred thousand!"

Zhang Sanheng gritted his teeth and said with grief and indignation.
