"Huaizuo is famous, Zhuxi is a good place, and the saddle is less than the first trip. Ten miles after the spring breeze, the wheat is green. Since Huma peeped into the river, the waste pond arbors, still tired of talking soldiers. It is getting dusk, and the clear corners are blowing cold, all in the empty city.

Du Lang Jun rewards, even now, heavy to be shocked, longitudinal cardamom word work, Qinglou dreams are good, and it is difficult to be affectionate. The twenty-four bridges are still there, the waves are swinging, and the cold moon is silent. Reading the red medicine by the bridge, I know who I was born for every year. ”

This famous Yangzhou slow song in history is the Southern Song Dynasty master Jiang Kui mourning for the disappeared Yangzhou City.

Yangzhou is rich in the world, and the people of the time are called "Yang Yi Yi Two", Yangzhou is the first, Yizhou is the second, which can be seen to be prosperous.

Who knows that Zhuxi Road, the song is Yangzhou. The canal runs from south to north, passing through the entire city of Yangzhou. In the past, the sound of oars and lights in Yangzhou City, the sound of song and dance, the noisy streets and alleys and wine shops, as well as the quiet Zenzhi Temple and Zhuxi Road, etc., coexisted with hustle and bustle, and the movement and tranquility were suitable, as if in heaven and on earth.

It's a pity that the prosperity of the past has gone with years of war and the ignorance of careerists.

On the dark surface of the canal, six sea boats are in the center, more than 100 warships and sampan boats surround the surroundings, plus 50 or 60 sea boats carrying people and goods, covering the entire canal surface.

The ships were full of sergeants armed with guns and knives, as if they were facing a great enemy. Everyone was silent and was quietly heading towards Yangzhou City.

This is the sailor of the loyal army led by Li Bao. Along the way, everyone captured a lot of puppet Qi soldiers who were doing evil, and they had already inquired clearly.

Wanyan Zongbi led his troops to capture Yangzhou, crossed the Yangtze River from Guazhou, and captured Jiujiang, Tanzhou, and Jiangning Prefecture. Yin Lu Yihao, the governor of Jiangning Prefecture, fled south, and Chen Bangguang, the secretary of the household department, Li Yan, surrendered, and Yang Bangyi was sentenced to be killed.

Wang Yuan and others amassed money, looted the people's fat and ointment, and the people's grievances boiled. Those routs fled in all directions, burning, killing and looting along the way, doing all kinds of evil, how can there be a way for our people to live in this world!"

Countless refugees by the canal, seeing the arrival of the loyal soldiers, knelt on the ground one after another, crying about the grievances in their hearts.

"The brothers' rations were cut in half, and the rest was distributed among the people. Tell them that if they want to survive, they should go north along the canal to the city of Bianliang or the land of the two rivers. ”

The food on board is also limited, which is a drop in the bucket for the hundreds of thousands of victims on the shore.

"Dutong, what about our rations?"

"Where can I grab some food, whether it is the Great Song Dynasty or Fanzi, I will talk about it when the time comes!"

Originally, the navy could go around Yangzhou City and go down the river until the sea, which was the safest way. But seeing that the Jin people were burning, killing and looting in the Jianghuai land, doing evil, if they couldn't hit the Jin people, everyone was really unwilling.

Five or six thousand elite soldiers, hundreds of artillery, plenty of ammunition, hundreds of ships, is it just a detour and a formality?

According to the consistent practice of the Jin people, they were afraid that they would burn Yangzhou City, so they left with the plunder.

Besides, even if you go directly by sea, if you run into the Jinren Navy at sea, you won't have to fight.

"Brothers, if the Jin people are not in Yangzhou City, if we run into them, we must let these thieves taste the power of the Loyal and Righteous Army Sailors!"

Li Baojun's order was issued, and the sergeants below were all eager to try and excited.

"Rest assured, general! As long as these dog thieves are still in Yangzhou City, the little one will lose this life, and let these thieves know the truth that good and evil are rewarded!"

Li Da couldn't help but clench his fists and replied categorically.

"Let the brethren lift their spirits! Fanzi can sneak attack Yangzhou City, let's give them one time. ”

The hideousness in Li Bao's eyes faintly emerged. Wang Song asked him to go south, not to be a turtle with a shrunken head.

The night was hazy, and the silence on the quiet canal was terrible. Even in the middle of the night, the canal still smells fishy and smelly, and the smell of corpses spreads everywhere, and I don't know how many Song people on both sides of the canal have been poisoned when the Jin soldiers went south.

Except for the fact that the boat occasionally encountered various debris and corpses, the two sides of the river were shrouded in darkness, and nothing could be seen. Hundreds of warships were quietly sailing upstream, except for the sound of oars plucking water, and the occasional barking of wild dogs in the wilderness, no one neighed or a horse, and there was a dead silence between heaven and earth.

The river was in a hurry, everyone was concentrated, and before they knew it, they passed the Gaoyou army, and Yangzhou City was in front. The enemy situation is unknown, and in order to prevent the grass from startling the snakes, the boatmen row their oars and try to avoid making loud noises. There was only one light on each ship to guide the way.

Li Bao and his subordinates stood at the bow of the ship, holding the side of the ship, looking ahead. These boats are quite tall, dozens of people standing on the deck, and the surroundings still seem very empty.

"Yangzhou, Yangziqiao, Guazhou, Runzhou, Taizhou, Tongzhou, ......"

Through the faint light of the ship, Li Bao looked at a map of the march route in front of him, and frowned.

This route map for the march was already well in his mind. Thinking like this at the moment, I am just looking for the best route to go.

"Stone Harbor Field, Gold Sand Field, Fengli Field, and Li & Fung Supervisor ......,

In this way, Tongzhou is a good choice. You can use the two seaports in the north and south, the south is Tongzhou Jinghai, and the north is Jiaoxi Bay.

Thinking of the possible splendor in the future, Li Bao's head was dripping with sweat, and even his palms were sweating.

The benefits of Huai salt are good for the world!

For the Jurchens, who only knew about looting, they couldn't take care of this piece of fat at the moment. If they are relieved, under the "careful" guidance and provocation of a group of Liaodi Hanchen, the Jin people will definitely go south again and capture the tax-paying land of Lianghuai.

Besides, the naval warships of the pseudo-Qi and Jin people are ready to move, so can they let them do whatever they want on the coastline, burning, killing and looting?

It's just that if you act arbitrarily, once the minister knows about it, what should you do?

"Why is the bow so noisy, don't you know that military law is strict?"

Hearing the noise coming from outside, as well as the sound of things falling into the water, Li Bao couldn't help frowning.

"Dutong, there are a few idlers who can't stand the loneliness, and they have to go to the bow of the boat, and they have been disposed of by the little ones!"

Li Bao unconsciously glanced behind him. The boat behind fell silent, and it seemed that the soldiers had killed the killers, and the new recruits were shocked.

He shook his head and turned his head. Looks like they're going to have to train hard once they've found a place to stay.

"General Huang, Xianggong asked us to find an outlet to the sea this time as a port for the navy to stay. Where do you think it's appropriate?"

Although he was Huang Feihu's boss, Li Bao still asked respectfully. After all, in this part of the sea, his experience and experience are far inferior to Huang Feihu.

Huang Feihu said in a deep voice: "General Li, if you want to choose the best port, Quanzhou is of course the best choice. It's just that Quanzhou is under the control of the imperial court, and Wang Xianggong refuses to turn his face with the imperial court. In addition to Liuqiu, Jiaoxi Bay in Haizhou and Mizhou is good. ”

Jiaoxi Bay is Jiaozhou Bay, the mother bay of Qingdao. There are Nanjiao River, Dagu River and other injections, the bay harbor is wide and deep, the wind and waves are calm, the sea water is not frozen all year round, it is a natural excellent harbor, and it is no longer suitable to berth a large fleet.

At the end of the Qing Dynasty, Germany wanted to lease the harbor to the Qing Dynasty, but was refused. So in 1898, Jiaozhou Bay was forcibly occupied on the grounds that the missionary had been killed. In 1914, it was forcibly occupied by Japan, and the Paris Peace Conference failed, which led to the May Fourth Movement in 1919, and Qingdao was recovered by China in 1922.

The Song Dynasty set up a city department in Banqiao Town, Jiaoxi Bay, as an official institution for foreign trade. It's just that now it's under the control of pseudo-Qi.

Li Bao exhaled and said, "General Huang, what you said is very true. Looks like we're going to have to fight a good battle with the Pseudo-Qi Marine!"

You Li Bao used to be just a mud leg in the countryside of Shandong, if it weren't for Wang Xianggong, how could you have everything today! A man should donate his body to go to the national disaster, the horse leather shroud, why hate you for not fighting a few battles, you began to suffer from gains and losses, it is really embarrassing!

"Straight lady thief, first he brewed it and then talk about it, so that Xianggong can be happy!"

Li Bao scolded hatefully in his mouth, and asked softly: "Has the brother who went to investigate the enemy come back?"

Li Zhuang on the side was also anxious in his heart, he looked at the Wumengmeng River, and replied cautiously: "General, the brothers have already set off, and according to the time, it should be about the same." The general should be patient!"

Li Bao nodded, and was about to speak, but saw the front. The lights on the river blinked, as if a ship was coming. Li Zhuang next to him said excitedly: "General, it's our brother." It seems that they have already reaped the rewards. ”

Several small boats quickly rowed closer, and a few drenched men got on the big boat, came to Li Bao and the others, knelt down on one knee, hugged his fists and said: "General, Cai Wu, the villain's former army scout battalion, see the general!"

"How is the hostile situation in Yangzhou? Hurry up!"

Li Bao stepped forward and helped the man in front.

"General, at the Yangzi Bridge ferry, there are hundreds of ships of the Jin people, among which there are many sea boats. It was all the baggage of the army, grain, grass, gold and silver, everything. It looks like Jin Ren will leave tomorrow, so it's just the right time for us to come!"

The leading man replied respectfully, regardless of his wet and numb body.

Li Bao nodded, and said hatefully: "It's hard work, lead the brothers down, change clothes, and lead the way!"

The man left, and Li Bao said in a low voice: "Brothers, the ship must have been obtained from the looting of Yangzhou City!" Tell the order to go down and go out at once, and rob these dog thieves!"

At the Yangtze Bridge ferry, the torches are bright, shining as if it were daytime. Countless Jin people came and went, in and out from the south gate of Yangzhou City, one by one happily, carrying things to the ship in large bags and small bags. Hundreds of young Song women were tied hand and foot, staying on the deck of a large ship, their faces full of tears and trembling.

Li Bao observed carefully, there were as many as 100 ships in the fleet, most of them were full of food, and the Jin soldiers looked like there were at least thousands of people, all of whom were Han'er's faces.

"Cai Wu, you and Li Da led two battalions of men and horses to sneak into the city to prevent the dog from setting fire to the city!"

Seeing Cai Wu leading people away, Li Bao turned his head, looked at the Jinbing ships in the distance, and said in a deep voice: "Let the gunners be ready, once the traces are exposed, fire immediately!"

Huang Feihu told on the side: "Be careful not to blow up those big ships, they are sea ships, but they are good things!"

"Straight lady thief, hurry up and load things securely, don't delay the boat!"

Li Qiong stood on the bow of the ship loaded with Song women, commanding loudly, directing the golden soldiers to load the ship.

Li Qiong led his troops to join Yan Zongbi and was placed under Liu Yu. After Yan Zongbi attacked Jiangnan, Li Qiong and Xu Wen, the commander of the Song Army's naval division, served as the Jianghuai Navy and Navy envoys respectively, and coordinated the attack on the Song Dynasty.

From this point of view, these land booty carried by Li Qiong was plundered from Lianghuai and Jinghu, and was to be transported back to Shandong and returned to the puppet Qi.

Li Qiong scolded loudly, and finally asked the golden soldiers on the ship to put the wealth and other things in order.

"Straight lady thief, a group of birdmen coerced goods, and when they saw women and silver, they couldn't walk!"

Li Qiong spat a mouthful of thick phlegm into the water, and her eyes inadvertently looked at the surface of the river.
