Chapter 6 sharpening the knife
In order to prepare for the hijacking of the ship and ensure that there was no news, Xiao Tianjian, after arriving at the ancient town, when arranging this matter, it was carried out from beginning to end under strict confidentiality, including the selected villagers. Until this time, he did not know that Xiao Tianjian had summoned them. Come on, what are you going to do? Just tell them that since then, they have been the soldiers of the Xingtian Army's water camp, and among these people, the soldiers needless to say. Originally, they were from the Xingtian Army, and those villagers were very happy. Now none of them don't know the strength of the Xingtian Army, and they also know that they are in Xingtian. The army is a soldier, eats well and dresses well. After every war, there are rich rewards, so a considerable number of local soldiers want to become the regular army of the Xingtian Army one day. Now they are given such an opportunity. Who cares what Xiao Tianjian wants them to do?
So more than 100 people followed Yang Kunshan to practice hard by the Yellow River. In a short period of time, relying on their good quality, and the original soldiers were assigned to be low-level officers among them. Within a few days, these people asked for their loose style and had some models of being soldiers. It's like.
But after all, this was the first time in the history of Xing Tianjun to work on the water, and he did a big ticket. Xiao Tianjian did not dare to make it big. In order to ensure success, he even personally followed Yang Kunshan to drive on the dozens of miles of river near the Yellow River. Finally, under the guidance of Yang Kunshan, he chose the best way to do it. Location.
There are far more rivers in the north than in the south. Although the world is in chaos, there are not many people who rely on boats to beg for food on the Yellow River. However, because of the rivers and lakes in the south, it is naturally a good soil for breeding water thieves. Compared with the south, the transportation of the northern rivers is much safer, so although the mountains and Shaanxi The parts of Henan are not calm, but the boats on the river are not less than before. On the contrary, the war in the north has caused a large amount of damage to local basic production, and many materials need to be transported from the south to the north.
In this era, it is impossible to transport a large number of goods long-distance by landing on the carriages and horses. The transportation of bulk goods can only rely on various ships to transfer goods to the north through the north and south through the Grand Canal, and then unloading nearby and then relying on carriages and horses to transfer the goods to the destination.
As the most important river in the north, the Yellow River connects Shandong, Henan, Shanxi and Shaanxi, so it also plays an important role in cargo transportation in this era.
In this way, when Yang Kunshan was training more than 100 people, on the fourth day of May, the details of Luoyang sent back the news that Fuwang's grain shipping fleet had arrived in Luoyang and would pass through the river around the ancient town in a few days. Feng Gouzi sent someone to inform Xiao Tianjian and asked Xiao Tianjian to start making arrangements.
After receiving the news, Xiao Tianjian immediately attracted Yang Kunshan in front of him and informed Yang Kunshan of the news. After listening to it, Yang Kunshan immediately transferred the more than 100 people to the river and was ready to set off.
Originally, Xiao Tianjian wanted to go down the river with Yang Kunshan this time to rob the grain boats of King Fu, but with such a veteran as Yang Kunshan, there was no need for Xiao Tianjian to personally command the boat robbery battle. After the persuasion of Yan Chongxi and others, Xiao Tianjian sat in the ancient town and asked Yang Kunshan to come. The body is responsible for the robbery of the ship.
But before leaving, he personally went to the wharf by the river to see off the people of Yang Kunshan. When the new graduates of the more than 160 dry water camp lined up on the wharf, Yan Chongxi had already led two sentries and completely blocked the whole ancient town wharf. Get up.
Xiao Tian was wearing a cyan suit and did not wear armor. He stood in front of the open space of the dock like a spear, glanced at more than a hundred new water campers with different costumes in front of him, and said to them loudly, "Brothers of the water camp, I'm afraid that you don't know me Xiao today. What are you going to do? Then I'll tell you today! Today's Shanxi is in chaos, and the imperial government does not want to help the hungry people! Let the people of Shanxi live and die by themselves, but this is the case. Today's Fuwang in Luoyang City, as a relative of the emperor, not only does not care about the difficulties of the people, but also wants to take the opportunity to make a fortune! Transfer a batch of grain to Shanxi for sale at a high price. How can I, Xing Tianjun, sit idly by!
Since he is not kind, then we will not be polite to him! He is sending food to our door, and we have to collect it! Instead of letting this food fall into the hands of those dignitaries and make a fortune, it's better to let us take it back to help our local people!
So you are going to take it back and be summoned for me! I want to ask you, do you dare to do this?
After these days of contact with Xiao Tianjian, these people have known Xiao Tianjian's identity for a long time. Many of them had never dreamed that one day they could follow the immortal Xiao Tianjian in their eyes and was personally mentioned by Xiao Tianjian. They had been eager to try for a long time. He made a show in front of Xiao Tianjian!
Today, they were summoned to the dock by Xiao Tianjian. These guys had been very excited for a long time. After listening to Xiao Tianjian's words, their blood was boiling. Immediately, more than 100 people shouted at the top of their voices: "Yes! We were waiting for the general to die!"
Xiao Tianjian glanced at these newcomers in the water camp, nodded slightly with satisfaction, and then said loudly, "Okay! Have ambition! I, Xiao, respect a hot-blooded man like you most! Come on, bring the wine! I want to have a drink with all the soldiers! I wish you all the best!"
With that, the iron head took some guards, brought several jars of wine and a large basket of thick porcelain bowls, sent the big bowl to every pawn present, and poured a bowl of wine for each of them. At the same time, he also poured a bowl of wine for Xiao Tianjian and sent it to Xiao Tianjian's hand.
Xiao Tianjian raised the wine bowl high. After toasting the pawns, he raised his hand and touched the wine bowl with Yang Kunshan. He picked it up and drank it. After drinking it, he lit up the bottom-up wine bowl in front of everyone. The beard was still covered with drops of wine, with a heroic and dry atmosphere.
The new graduates of Yang Kunshan and other water camp also said nothing. They picked up the wine bowl, came to their mouths and drank it. Then Xiao Tianjian threw the wine bowl on the ground of the dock with a bang. Yang Kunshan and more than 100 people under him immediately threw the wine bowl heavily on the ground under their feet. Their blood is boiling even more.
"I, Xiao, am waiting here for you to return! All the good work, brothers! Let's go!" Xiao Tianjian waved his big hand and roared hard.
Yang Kunshan turned around and shouted, "It's all there! Get on the boat and set off!"
Even if more than a hundred newcomers in the water camp disguised as fishermen turned around, they picked up the weapons prepared for them and ran to their ships. After a while, these various fishing boats gathered on the docks drove away from the dock one by one and quickly drove from the mouth of the river to the wide yellow. In the surface of the river, the stars scattered on the surface of the Yellow River, leaving only small black spots.
(Today is Monday, the old rule is to ask for red tickets first!)
