Jiangzhou

At noon, it arrived. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info This place has belonged to the territory of the Southern Tang Dynasty. The Southern Tang Dynasty has always been rich and prosperous. Huang Wen had woken up, and when he saw the fishing boats lingering on both sides of the Yangtze River and the occasional busy people, Huang Wen also lamented that although Hankou was large, it could not be compared.

At this time, four official ships quickly killed from the river and stopped Huang Wen's boat. But I saw that there were many Tang soldiers with knives and guns standing on the four ships. As soon as the boat approached, five or six Tang soldiers jumped up, and the regiments surrounded Huang Wen, Kang Zhaoqian saw this and stopped the boat, and an officer in the Tang soldiers beckoned Kang Zhaoqian to come to the bow of the boat. Slowly, a few more Tang soldiers came up, searched the boat, and found nothing unusual. The leader of the officer asked, "Where did you come from?" Kang Zhaoqian said: "We went from Hankou to Jinling to do business, but we did not expect to encounter robbers on the way, all the money and goods were lost, and all the workers were killed or fled, leaving us two fathers and sons. The officer looked at the two of them carefully and said, "Take it and go to the general." Then some soldiers came up and tied them up. Huang Wenwen wanted to resist, but when he saw Kang Zhaoqian shaking his head, he listened to the reason and tied him up and took him to the official ship.

The boat came to shore in a few moments, and a few more soldiers came and escorted the two men to the shore. There were soldiers along the road to meet them, and Huang Wen and Kang Zhaoqian couldn't help but sigh that the Tang soldiers were so well-trained.

Just outside the city, a huge military camp was built. Led the two into the barracks and came to an officer in ship armor. But I saw that this person was only twenty-four or five years old, but he was burly and had a round and thick face. The Tang soldiers who brought it said: "Major General Qiyu, bring two spies from the Zhou Kingdom." Kang Zhaoqian hurriedly said: "The two of us are not spies, they are just doing business from Zhou to Tang. The major general carefully looked at the two of them and said, "I don't think you look like a businessman, but you don't look like a spy either." After saying that, he laughed. Huang Wen and Kang Zhaoqian felt embarrassed when they saw him laughing.

The major general paced back and forth a few steps and said, "Even if you don't look like a spy, you can't let it go, and you can be imprisoned first." Before the words fell, a woman's voice came in: "Big brother, who do you say is the most powerful in the art of war?" When Huang Wen looked sideways, he saw a young girl walking in, but she was wearing armor and military uniform, and a big sword was hanging from her waist, if it weren't for her handsome face and fair complexion, how could she distinguish between men and women? The young general seemed to be stumped by his question, thought for a while, and muttered: "It should be Zhuge Kongming!" Huang Wen said: "No!" At this time, Tang soldiers escorted him away. The girl and the young general were very shocked when they heard the word "Feiye", and immediately called "slow" and asked, "What's the solution?" Huang Wen looked at the surrounding situation, if he didn't come out strongly, he would inevitably be imprisoned, so he said: "Although Zhuge Kongming knows astronomy and geography, and the organs are exhausted, he has no choice but to go out of Qishan and lose seven, but he has not expanded the Shuhan rivers and mountains by an inch, and at most it is just a three-legged force. Compared with Han Xin's 'Ming repair plank road and secret crossing Chencang', he opened up territory for Taizu and established an immortal foundation. Han Xin is the most powerful art of war throughout the ages, and his art of war is naturally needless to say. ”

After hearing this, the young general and the girl all applauded. The girl said: "Big brother, how can you be slack off if you are such a master?" The young general immediately asked someone to let go of the two of them, and gave them a seat to serve tea. Huang Wen and Kang Zhaoqian were reluctant to sit down. The young general looked at Huang Wen in surprise and said, "Our two brothers and sisters are after Lin Renzhao of the Tang Dynasty, and I am shaking the mountain, and my sister Xiuzhen." My father was ordered by the emperor to guard the town, and our two siblings were responsible for the defense of the Yangtze River. When the war is in chaos today, it is a good time for aspiring men to make a name for themselves and serve the country. Neither of them is an ordinary person, why don't you serve the Tang Dynasty with your father and save the people of Li from fire and water?" Kang Zhaoqian heard this, and said: "It's a pity that we are not from the Tang Dynasty, and we are mistaken for spies, and we will not be trusted by the Tang Dynasty." Lin Zhenshan said: "The so-called land of the world is not the king's land, the world belongs to the Tang Dynasty, how can there be any reason not to trust?" Huang Wenzheng wanted to say something, but Kang Zhaoqian preemptively said: "It's a pity that our uncle and nephew are not knowledgeable, and I am afraid that we will miss the major event of the young general." The implication is that they are willing to stay.

Lin Zhenshan was very happy, and immediately ordered the two of them to go to the side hall to rest. Lin Xiuzhen was also very happy, and led the two to the side hall at the moment, but Huang Wen and Kang Zhaoqian did not sit down, afraid that the weapons hidden on their bodies would be exposed. Lin Xiuzhen asked the names of the two, she was not from the rivers and lakes, but she didn't think much of Kang Zhaoqian's name. Huang Wendao: "Miss Lin is too polite to us, in fact, don't pay attention to us, let us go to Jiangling by ourselves." When Lin Xiuzhen heard that they were going to Jiangling, she asked, "What do you have to do in Jiangling?" Kang Zhaoqian preemptively said: "Old friends on the rivers and lakes." Lin Xiuzhen was very happy and said, "Let's go, I'll take the two of you to see my father." With that, he walked out. At this time, Lin Zhenshan happened to come in and said, "Sister, you greet the two knights here, and I'll take someone to the riverside to have a look." Lin Xiuzhen saw his panicked appearance, so she asked, "Big brother, what's wrong?" Lin Zhenshan whispered a few words in her ear. After speaking, he saw Lin Xiuzhen said angrily: "This salt gang is too hateful, I want to teach them a lesson with you." Huang Wenwen didn't want to stay here, and when he saw that there seemed to be an emergency, he said, "We'll go with you too." Lin Zhenshan nodded and agreed. So, the four of them took a dozen Tang soldiers and rushed to the wharf by the Yangtze River.

When he came to the dock, Huang Wen saw that his big ship had been tied to a relatively distant place. In the middle of the Yangtze River, more than a dozen military ships stopped the four cargo ships, and Tang Bing stood beside the ships and surrounded the people on the four cargo ships. Lin Zhenshan took everyone on a relatively large boat and sailed quickly to the river. On the way, Huang Wen could see clearly that four people suddenly jumped out of the cargo ship, and something in their hands was thrown at the surrounding Tang soldiers, and the Tang soldiers suddenly screamed, covering their eyes with their hands, and some even fell into the river. Lin Zhenshan said: "The salt gang uses poisonous salt, everyone be careful." When Huang Wen saw the bow and arrows hanging on the ship, he immediately took them down, twisted up four arrows, and shot them with a full bow. But there were four whoosh sounds, followed by four screams, and all four fell from arrows. Huang Wen didn't shoot the opponent's vital point, but just shot the opponent down to prevent him from sprinkling poisonous salt to harm people. After shooting, Huang Wen had already twisted four more arrows on the string. Lin Xiuzhen saw that Huang Wen was so good at archery, and couldn't help but praise: "Huang Shaoxia's archery is clever!"

As the ship drew closer, no one jumped out of the cargo ship, and the four men were lying on the boat, all of them with arrows in the thighs. Lin Zhenshan shouted: "Salt gang thieves, don't come out and surrender quickly!" Tang Bing followed and shouted a few times, but there was no movement. At this time, a small officer came over and reported to Lin Zhenshan: "Although the ships of the Salt Gang have been allowed to cross the border of Tang and Zhou, this time we found that their cargo was abnormal, so we wanted to check it, but they did not cooperate and injured several of our brothers." As he spoke, he pointed to the four people lying on the side of the boat and continued: "Now it's even more ruthless, and he actually hurts people with poisonous salt." Major General, we must not let them go!" Lin Zhenshan nodded to understand, and looked at the cargo ship carefully, the pressurized water was very deep, obviously the ship must not be full of salt, there must be a heavier cargo than salt.

At this moment, a tall man came out of the first cargo ship, with eyes like torches, a big beard, and no weapons. After coming out, he hugged his fists and said: "Hong Tao, the helmsman of the Hankou branch of the Xiayan Gang, has heard the name of General Lin Renzhao of the Tang Dynasty for a long time, and even heard that General Lin has no dog father and son, and he has a pair of good children. Lin Zhenshan was tired of hearing such polite words, so he immediately waved his hand and said: "Lord Hongruo, just say it directly, what else is there on this ship besides salt? When did your salt gang open a new financial road?" Hong Tao said: "Don't hide it from the young general, this time there are more weapons on the ship, and there is nothing else." Lin Zhenshan shook his head in disbelief, Lin Xiuzhen said: "Since it is a weapon, we will know if we show it." Hong Tao said, "Please!" he said, spreading his right hand and inviting people into the boat. Lin Xiuzhen hesitated, but did not dare to step forward.

Suddenly, a person jumped out from behind him and said, "Miss Lin, why don't you let me lead the way for you." When Lin Xiuzhen saw that it was Huang Wen, she immediately smiled and said, "Huang Shaoxia led the way, and the little girl walked together." Lin Zhenshan was about to stop it, and when he saw that his sister and Huang Wen had arrived in front of Hong Tao, he said to the four people around him: "You go in and have a look." Huang Wen said: "Young General Lin doesn't need to, I will return to Zhao completely." Immediately, Huang Wen was in front, Lin Xiuzhen was in the middle, and Hong Tao was behind, and stepped into the cabin.

Entering the cabin, Huang Wen didn't find any weapons, and when he and Lin Xiuzhen looked around, seven or eight people suddenly came out and surrounded the two. Hong Tao said: "The two are really cowardly, the ships of the Salt Gang dare to come in!" Lin Xiuzhen said: "What don't you dare? Huang Wendao: "What about the weapons you are talking about?" Hong Tao waved his hand, everyone showed their bright weapons, and Hong Tao also caught a long pipe handed over by others, and his whole body was black and shiny. Hong Tao said triumphantly: "Isn't this a weapon?" Huang Wen also laughed, took out the Demon Sword hidden in his clothes from behind him, and said, "I have it too!" Hong Tao was taken aback first, and then said with a smile: "That's fine, it won't let us take too much advantage! Say, do you want to go out vertically or horizontally?" Lin Xiuzhen was furious: "You dare?" Hong Tao said: "Why don't the people of the Salt Gang dare?" Huang Wen said: "Do you want to go out vertically or horizontally?" Hahahaha, a big man next to Hong Tao smiled, and suddenly a ghost head knife slashed over. Huang Wen had long thought that he must cut through the chaos quickly, so he pulled out the Demon Suppression Sword and slashed at the Ghost Head Knife with enough internal strength. With a bang, the ghost-headed knife broke into two, and one fell on the ship's board. Before the people of the Salt Gang could react, Huang Wen stabbed his sword forward again, and when the big man was stunned, the sword had already sealed his throat, and he fell down with a thud.

Hong Tao was furious, and the cigarette stick swept over, but it was aimed at Lin Xiuzhen. Lin Xiuzhen has never practiced any martial arts, only some superficial kung fu of marching and fighting. Huang Wen pulled her behind him and blocked the cigarette stick with his sword. I only heard the sound of the fire, and there was a deep gap in the cigarette stick. Hong Tao was startled, and immediately stopped the water, and the right cigarette stick stabbed over as quickly as a dragonfly. Huang Wen had never seen such a fast technique, so he didn't dare to accept it at the moment, so he hurriedly pulled Lin Xiuzhen back five steps before avoiding it. Suddenly, the sword wind behind him protruded. Huang Wen knew that there was a weapon coming from behind, so he had no time to think, his right wrist shook the Demon Sword behind his back, and he only listened to it, and three knives had been cut off. The man behind hurriedly jumped away from the edge. At this time, Hong Tao had already jumped over, and only slapped Huang Wen's chest with both palms in the air. Huang Wen hurriedly slapped out his left palm, but when he heard a snap, Hong Tao screamed, and was shocked back, and his body in the air was like a kite with a broken line, hitting the wall of the boat with a bang, and falling on the board with a bang. Everyone didn't get Huang Wen's martial arts to be so strong, especially the hard-hitting battle of the palms, Hong Tao was shocked so far, but Huang Wen stood still in place.

At this time, everyone did not dare to rush forward to do it. Afraid of the sword in his hand and the profound internal force. Lin Xiuzhen was overjoyed, she didn't expect to have the absolute upper hand so easily. She said, "If you surrender now, you will not die!" Suddenly, a disciple of the Salt Gang screamed and rushed out, but heard several swishing sounds, accompanied by screams, and the man had been killed by random arrows. The other two people who ran out first after him also fell in the screams.

There were four other people in the cabin, looking at each other, not knowing what to do. Lin Xiuzhen shouted: "Put down your weapons and surrender obediently!" When the four of them heard this, they immediately dropped their weapons and knelt down. At this time, Tang Bing had already rushed in, and it was Lin Zhenshan who took the lead, and he was very surprised when he saw this. Lin Zhenshan immediately ordered someone to escort the four people who surrendered, and then searched the cargo hold. Lin Zhenshan asked someone to pull Hong Tao out, and then called the other three boats to come out and surrender. When the men saw that the helmsman had been captured, they all came out and surrendered. Thirty or so children of the Salt Gang were charged, and four cargo ships were dragged to the shore. While driving, Lin Xiuzhen had already told her brother what had happened, and Kang Zhaoqian naturally heard it.

When they arrived on the shore, Lin Zhenshan immediately ordered the people of the Salt Gang to be imprisoned. At this time, the soldiers who searched the cargo ship came to report that there was a lot of gold and treasures buried in the salt. Lin Zhenshan was taken aback, and hurriedly jumped to select his cronies to escort the delivery ship into the naval army base behind the dock.

Lin Xiuzhen took Huang Wen and Kang Zhaoqian back to the hall, but just happened to bump into a fifty-year-old officer, possessed by silver armor, full of energy, and when he saw Lin Xiuzhen, he said: "Zhen'er, has the matter of the Salt Gang been handled properly?" It turned out that he was Lin Renzhao. When Lin Xiuzhen saw her father, she hurriedly responded to the last time, and was excited: "Dad, fortunately I met Huang Shaoxia this time, otherwise, my daughter may have fallen for the tricks of the Salt Gang." Lin Renzhao let out an "oh", looked at Huang Wen and Kang Zhaoqian, and looked at them carefully. Kang Zhaoqian hugged his fists and said: "Under Kang Zhaoqian, see General Lin." Kang Zhaoqian heard him call himself "Kang Zhaoqian", and knew that it was not the "Huang Shaoxia" that his daughter said, so he focused on Huang Wen. Huang Wen said: "The younger Huang Wen sees General Lin. Lin Renzhao saw that Huang Wen was young and talented, so he couldn't help but smile and nodded. So, beckoned everyone to sit down and listened to Lin Xiuzhen tell the story like a bird.

After listening to this, Lin Renzhao was even more impressed by Huang Wen, he didn't expect this young man's martial arts to be so strong. He looked at the sword in Huang Wen's hand, and said: "This sword can feel murderous without being sheathed, and it is really a sword." Huang Wen didn't know how to answer, so he only smiled silently. Lin Renzhao asked about the relationship between Huang Wen and Kang Zhaoqian. Kang Zhaoqian said: "Although the two of us are not related by blood, we are indeed friends and go to Jinling together. Lin Renzhao nodded and said, "I see." I don't know what the important thing to go to Jiangnan is?" Huang Wen didn't know how to answer, but Kang Zhaoqian said: "Does General Lin deny Li Jingsui?" Lin Renzhao smiled: "Although this general does not cling to the powerful, the King of Jin still knows him. Huang Wen was taken aback, and couldn't help but say: "Li Jingsui is the King of Jin!" Lin Renzhao saw his blank expression and asked, "Is there anything unspeakable about the two of you?" Huang Wen shook his head, and Kang Zhaoqian said: "There is nothing difficult to hide, but it is convenient to talk about it when you meet the King of Jin." Lin Renzhao nodded in understanding.

At this time, Lin Zhenshan came in and whispered in Lin Renzhao's ear for a while. When Lin Renzhao heard this, he couldn't help but say, "God help me, God help me!" and then laughed. Lin Xiuzhen happily asked, "Dad, what's so happy?" Lin Renzhao said: "This time, the Salt Gang sent us a military salary that the imperial court did not give us. Lin Xiuzhen was overjoyed: "This time we can carry out armaments on a large scale." Huang Wen and Kang Zhaoqian both understood in their hearts that it was the gold and silver treasures of the Salt Gang.
