Three Kingdoms, at the beginning of the game, recognize the thief as the father, hit the spectacle,

This time crossing the river, I must be more careful, more cautious, more cautious.

……

On the west side of the Yangtze River Estuary in Wuhu, Li Le, Hu Cai and others had already gathered together, listening to Fazheng explaining to them the key points of the terrain in this area, as well as some things to pay attention to when crossing the river.

As the supreme commander, Sun Jian was naturally present.

Whether it was Li Le or Hu Cai, the first time they saw Fazheng, they immediately yelled, asking Fazheng to quickly provide them with a feasible strategy.

After all, the idea of ​​focusing on the Wuhu line by myself and others this time was proposed by Fazheng.

The other party must have prepared in advance.

And on the other side of the river, the land of Jiangdong faintly visible in the mist...

Even if Li Le and the others are reckless men who don't like reading, they can easily feel the evil spirit coming from that direction.

Or it could be said that the murderous intent was constantly churning.

……

"Xiaozhi, isn't it a little too quiet across the Yangtze River?"

"It's September now. Although most insects have frozen to death, birds should be most active at this time."

"On the opposite side of the Yangtze River today, there is a dense forest not far from the tidal flat, and there is not even a bird's song in the dense forest. Presumably there must be thieves ambushing here?"

……

On the west bank of the Yangtze River, Sun Jian was frowning as he watched the situation on the other side of the river.

He was born in Changsha County, so he is very familiar with water warfare.For example, today's foggy weather is not suitable for crossing the river normally. Once the other party ambushes on the other side, it is easy for the landing troops to collapse on their side.

……

At the same time, on the east bank of the Yangtze River, there were also two people talking in a low voice.

It's just that they are different from Sun Jian. Instead of feeling nervous, these two people tremble a little like excited.

Like... a young hunter waiting for his prey to step into the trap.

……

At this moment, on the other side of the river, in the gloomy dense forest, two brothers Peng Qi and Peng Shi were lying on the ground, squinting their eyes and watching the situation on the opposite side.

Both of them wore hairstyles that are common among Yue people. They shaved off the hair on their foreheads and gathered the rest of their hair in a bunch. At first glance, they looked somewhat similar to the ronin of the Fusang Kingdom in Japan.

Of course, the most well-known "ronin" group should be the Fusang Kingdom during the shogunate period, those samurai who lost their salaries and had to wander around.

And at least this will not appear until China enters the Ming Dynasty.

Therefore, the ronin mentioned here are not those warriors, but an earlier reference-rogue.

……

In fact, as early as the Ming Dynasty, as early as the Tang Dynasty, "ronin" appeared in official documents as a reference.

Only at that time, the ronin generally referred to the "Three Waves" of ethnic minorities in the southwest region, that is, the people of the three nationalities of Langqiong, Bijiu, and Shilang, and they used this to compare with the "Han people" who were the main ethnic group in the Tang Dynasty. Make a distinction.

Before the Tang Dynasty, during the Han, Wei and Jin Dynasties, the concept of ronin actually appeared among the people.

People who "live without a fixed place" and "wander around" are the interpretation of ronin in that era.

……

Closer to home, as the leaders of Shanyue, the two brothers Peng Qi and Peng Shi had led people to ambush here a few days ago.

One of them is Shanyue's "Poyang Commander" who leads more than 5000 "Poyang Thieves", and the other is Shanyue's "Qiantang Commander" who commands the Qiantang "Rebel Army" with [-] people, all of whom belong to Ying Zulang After calling, they set off from their respective locations and rushed to Danyang County.

Don't look at the fact that both of them have the surname Peng, but there is no blood relationship between them.

Peng Qi was born as a real Yue native, and has always been active in Poyang. She is the most famous water thief in Poyang and has a great reputation.

But Peng Shi's identity is a bit embarrassing.

He was originally a Han Chinese, a scholar in the Qiantang area. Because he repeatedly instigated the villagers to rebel, he was repeatedly suppressed by the government.After many times, these villagers are not stupid, so they simply let Peng Shi be their leader.

Peng Shi, on the other hand, knew that he couldn't accomplish anything alone, so he took this opportunity to connect with Shanyue, the largest local force in Jiangdong...

……

The reason why the two of them ambushed here today is because they obeyed Zu Lang's order to stop the Han army here.

The two waited for three full days before they saw the direction of the west bank through the thick fog on the river, and the army of Sun Jian and others appeared in front of their eyes.

……

"Brother, these guys are here!"

"My elder brother can't match your eyesight. Take a closer look, how many of these people have come?"

In the fog, Peng Qi was a little nervous, but also a little excited looking in the direction of the other side.

Although he is also a big water thief with tens of thousands of people under his command, these water thieves are usually scattered in various water networks, and there are very few opportunities to gather together like this.

Like today's tens of thousands of battles, not to mention him, Peng Qi, I am afraid that few of the Han generals have experienced it.

It is precisely because of this that Peng Qi is inevitably a little excited and a little excited.

Before he knew it, the dialect of his hometown came out of his mouth.

……

Beside Peng Qi, another person narrowed his eyes slightly and looked in the opposite direction.

He is nearly 20 years younger than Peng Qi. Although he also looks like a Yueman, there is always a taste of a scholar in every move he makes.

I saw him staring at the opposite side for a long time, and then whispered in Peng Qi's ear:

"It should be less than thirty thousand."

……

"The distance is too far, and the fog is heavy today, so I can't estimate it."

"Just by looking at it like this, there shouldn't be as many people under my command."

There was a hint of femininity in his voice, and Peng Shi's lips turned red from being bitten by himself.

……

"There are not as many people as you? Isn't that just over [-]?"

"Such a few people want to come and beat us in Danyang, isn't it a dream?"

It seemed that when Peng Shi mentioned that the number of the other party was very small, Peng Qi burst out laughing from the side.

Faintly, one could hear a trace of disdain in the other party's tone.

"There are nearly 4 sailors in Lao Tzu's hands alone, and brother, your Han soldiers, the number is more than three times their number. Just this, he dared to trouble us. I think he is really Don't die!"

"If I knew there were only two and a half people like this, why would we lie in ambush!"

"[-] against [-], even if the three-year-old child in the clan is in command, this battle can be won!"

……

"It's not a problem at all for our sons and daughters to beat them three or five times!"

……

It's just that although Peng Qi talked so much, Peng Shi didn't have the slightest intention to underestimate the enemy.

He is different from these Yue people, he is of Han origin, so he is more sensitive to the news of the big man.

The prefect in the west... If he remembers correctly, he should have landed in Yangzhou at the beginning of last year. In less than a year, the mountains of the Lujiang River were wiped clean.

Although there are only a few thousand people in Shanyue in Lujiang, they are still people after all?

You are a guy who is not familiar with the place, and you can organize people to go into the mountains to suppress the bandits in less than a year. Compared with other wimpy and useless prefects, you must be a little different.

The lion fights the rabbit with all his strength.

This cautiousness is the only secret behind Peng Shi's repeated incitement of villagers to rebel, but he still survived till now.

……

"Brother, don't look at the opponent's only about 2 people, but these officers and soldiers are all from Lujiang, not these useless people from Danyang!"

"Do you remember what those guys who fled to us from Lujiang said?"

"Wearing solid armor, bows and arrows can't get in!"

"Hold a sharp blade, cut iron silently!"

"There is also a strange weapon that can attract thunder!"

"In my opinion, we'd better be more cautious later and act according to the plan."

……

I saw him tugging on La Pengqi's sleeve, even though there was a little disdain in his eyes looking at the other side, he didn't have any thoughts of underestimating the enemy.

Yes, he looks down on these Han courtiers... Whether it is the county magistrate, the prefect, or others, they are all like a piece of shit in Peng Shi's eyes. They do nothing but collect money and impose tyranny.

But this does not mean that Peng Shi will take it lightly when facing these people.

……

"Hmph, brother, what do you mean?"

On the side, after hearing Peng Shi's words, Peng Qi seemed a little dissatisfied.

"He has armor and shields, but the more we have, the more people we have?"

"His sword is sharp and sharp, how can any of us who are more human be worse than him?"

……

"We are Yue people, not savages!"

"What they have, we have as well!"

"And...better than theirs!"

……

Complaining to Peng Shi in a low voice, Peng Qi felt more and more upset.
