Volume 5 The Flame of the Burning Han Chapter 51 Foresight
Nanying stood quietly on the bank of the surging Yellow River, watching the sail shadows in the distance go eastward, and finally felt a little relaxed in his heart.
After crossing to the north bank of the Yellow River, the development of the situation did not completely fulfill his wishes, and after urgent consultation, only about 10 percent of the 70,000 people said that they were willing to move to the Bohai Sea to settle down, while 90 percent of the people politely refused because of their families and the difficulty of leaving their homeland. Although many people said that they would move to Bohai as long as the family reunited, the number of these people was only more than 20,000, which could not help but disappoint Nanying.
Seeing that people are eating horses and chewing, military rations are being consumed day by day, and 70,000 people have become a huge logistical burden, but fortunately, the Bohai Navy has broken through the camps of Xu Rong and Li Dao, and seized a lot of grain and grass, which can still barely be supported.
In response to the imminent food crisis, Sima Zhi and Zao Yi jointly wrote a book, proposing the idea of relying on the Yellow River in the south and Taihang in the north, and mobilizing Mintun on the spot.
In this regard, Nanying didn't even think about it, and only replied with two words: speedy.
Batches of people who longed to return to their roots were quickly sent food and sent back to their hometowns; The people who wanted to reunite their families returned to their hometowns in the village pavilion, and Nanying gave them enough food and a month to stay and listen. As a result, the only people who remained in the army were 7,000 who had defected to the Bohai Sea and 20,000 who were unwilling to move but were temporarily homeless.
Keqiao Mocheng led four newly-built building ships and a large number of small and medium-sized ships to arrive in time, not only delivering urgently needed grain and grass to be served, but also bringing the total number of building ships of the Bohai Sea Army to as many as 12, greatly enhancing the transportation capacity. Seven thousand people who were willing to move away were mobilized overnight and transported directly to the Bohai Sea. The ship was accompanied by the bodies of 400 brave soldiers who had died in battle and more than 300 who had been seriously and lightly wounded.
Zao Yi and Sima Zhi were so busy that their feet did not touch the ground, collecting cattle and farming tools, and opening up land for 20,000 people to live in.
In order to solve his worries, Nanying sent a special letter to Zhang Yan, asking him to allocate 2,000 soldiers and horses to serve as the garrison of Tuntian. All food proceeds are also distributed by the company. Zhang Yan was of course overjoyed, and only two days after receiving the letter, his vanguard had arrived at the Bohai naval garrison.
In this way, after crossing the river, it was busy for three or five days, and as the last batch of ships returned to the Bohai Sea, the noisy and busy camp finally quieted down.
Nan Ying watched the last sail shadow disappear at the corner of the river, and then he turned back, but saw Gao Shun coming towards him, and said with a smile: "Yuan Shao sent a messenger, do you want to see me?" ”
"Nope!" Nan Ying said very simply: "Yuan Chu's little bit of caution can hide from me?" He's having a hard time riding a tiger now. If you can't retreat, you can't fight it, so you want to drag us to give him courage! ”
"Brother Lao and the messenger said!" He said lazily: "Since our army was dispatched, it has gone through several battles and killed more than 10,000 enemies......
"Brother Nan, you!" Gao Shun said angrily and funny: "At this stage, our goal is still to eliminate Dong Zhuo, it is rare that Yuan Shao's kid can have the courage to insist on entering the army." If we don't help, once the coalition is defeated, we will still fight Dong Zhuo in the end...... You still have to think about the big picture! ”
"It's not impossible...... Yes! Nanying's eyes suddenly lit up: "Big brother, tell me." Shall we knock him on a bar? Please also ask the eldest brother to ......"
"You lazy boy!" Gao Shun pulled Nanying and walked towards the big tent: "If you want to knock, you will knock it yourself!" Don't think of big brother as a wicked person who runs errands for you! ”
"What wicked man?" Someone's voice was lowered: "Isn't it just extorting tens of thousands of stones of grain?" The people take food as the sky, I want you to be a great benevolent person who robs the rich and helps the poor..."
In the big tent. The messenger had been waiting for a long time, but his thin figure was still as tall as a mountain, immobile as a statue. There is no trace of impatience or impatience.
Nanying slowly walked into the big tent, looking at the man: "Who is that?" Yuan Shao called you? Speak concisely, Ben will be busy! ”
The messenger was not angry, and said lightly: "Meet General Yingyang Zhonglang, the next official is Jizhou Zhizhong, don't drive and judge, especially on the order of General Yuan, I implore the general to send troops immediately and fight Dong Thief again!" ”
"Fight the Dong thief again? You don't have a backache when you stand and talk......" Nan Ying just sneered, and suddenly said in amazement: "Wait a minute, what did you just say your name?" ”
"The next official will be judged!" There was finally a hint of anger on the judge's face, Shi Ke could not be killed, with his always strong temperament, if he had not been ordered to invite the Southern Eagle army to help in the battle, he was afraid that he would have to leave on the spot.
He stiffened his face and said again: "The lower official has always been unknown, but what a noble person is the general?" Of course, it's not easy to remember! ”
"What did you say!" Among the two rows of eagle generals in the tent, someone heard this obviously resentful mockery, and couldn't help blurting out.
"Alas! It's the south of the trial! To everyone's surprise, Nanying retracted the steps he had just taken behind the case and turned around with a look of surprise.
He patted the judge on the shoulder and grinned, "I'm sorry, I didn't know it was you...... It's just that those who tend to be inflammatory, of course they won't give them a good face! ”
All the generals were stunned, but the judge stroked the shoulder with a faint pain, but he was flattered and said: "The general seems to know very much about the matching? It's rude! But how does the general know that he is not a person who tends to be inflammatory? ”
"Joke! If you are also such a villain, how many straight people are there in the world? Nanying waved his hand and said happily: "Someone! Serve a seat and serve tea! ”
The eagle generals were sluggish together, and they had followed Nanying for so long, and they had never seen him treat people who were unknown to friends or foes so politely...... Could it be that this trial is really a rare sage in the world?
In fact, don't talk about them, even if they are judged themselves, they can't stay on the spot. Before coming here, he had already heard of Ying Yang Zhonglang's stinky temper of not getting oil and salt in, and he had even heard of his character that would rather bend than bend, God! That's a fierce man who even the first emperor dared to openly contradict! Therefore, the trial and match took great pains to prepare a belly of lines, and when Nanying was angry at the case, he wanted to talk about it with emotion and reason...... How do you know that Nan Ying did not play his cards according to common sense at all, and actually put on the appearance of an old friend who had been friends for a long time, and made a humble posture of Corporal Lixian, which made him-for-tat and full of reason.
Looking at the wonderful looks on the faces of the generals and judges, Nan Ying smiled slightly, and then said: "Actually, it's easy to say, this general respects Zhengnan so much because of his loyalty and generosity." It is a model of observance and righteousness! ”
"What?" The judge trembled slightly, and looked at Nanying in disbelief. Even Yuan Shao, who has always been loyal to him, has never given him such a high reputation, but he is just praising him for his wisdom and prudence!
"General, you ......." The judge finally lowered his head and saluted Nanying heartily. He has a fierce nature and speaks bluntly, but he often runs into a wall because of this, and is ostracized by his colleagues, and he is even more depressed and difficult to achieve in Han Fu. until he ran into Yuan Shao. Only then did he have the feeling of seeing the clouds and seeing the sun when he met the Lord, but Nanying, who had never known him, was in his heart every sentence, how could he not be grateful?
"Okay, you're welcome!" Nan Ying raised his hand to support the trial, and said calmly: "Of course, I will know everything about your intentions....... I can reply to you now!" ”
In the eyes of the generals and the judges, Nan Ying said lightly: "It's only up to you to judge Nan's personal arrival and send troops...... Ben will agree! ”
"Thank you, General!" The eyes of the judge were filled with joy and excitement. Plunged to the ground. The completion of the task is secondary, and the key is still in this thick affection...... General Yingyang, who has always been cold and arrogant, would actually point out in public that this dispatch of troops was completely based on his face? What a love this is!
"However, it may be difficult for Zhengnan General Yuan Benchu to convey a request from the general!" Nan Ying said in a heavy tone: "Zhengnan may have seen it too." Our cavalry came from the Bohai Sea for a long time, and the logistics were always difficult to supply, and after several successive battles, they had to bear the burden of the lives of tens of thousands of people rescued from the hands of Dong Jun...... This grain. It's not enough! ”
He spread his hands and said: "And the general's subordinates, and there are few talents who are proficient in governing and allocating money and food, now is the time when they are at a loss....... Zhengnan can understand the general's difficulties, right?" ”
The judge could hear him talk about "several battles in a row". Although it is an understatement, how did he not know the feat of the Bohai Navy's three battles and three victories? couldn't help but hear the blood boiling, and patted his chest on the spot and said: "The general can rest assured, after the subordinate goes back, he will be reasonable, and urge General Yuan to immediately allocate grain and grass for the general's emergency!" ”
"Good! Ben will thank Jeongnam in advance! Nan Ying climbed on the shoulder of the judge with an affectionate face, and said half-jokingly and half-seriously: "There is another word to bring to Yuan Benchu, if he can't support the grain and grass, then Ben will also say that there is a shortage of talents to preside over the dispatch of the army....... how about Brother Zhengnan have to pay off his debts?" ”
"What?" The judge turned his head sideways in a slight startle, but he happened to meet Nanying's clear and sincere eyes, he was confused for a while, but he couldn't help but say: "The general can rest assured, if he is entrusted by the general, what if he is entrusted by the general, he will repay it with his body?" ”
"Hahaha, Jeongnam is really a reckless person!" Nan Ying happily clapped his hands and said: "Obviously entrusted by Yuan Benchu, now I see that my Bohai Navy is in trouble, but I have stepped forward to take it as my own responsibility!" This is a high wind and bright festival......."
"You boys!" He pointed to the eagle generals in front of him, and said: "You must take Mr. Shen as a model, learn more, and always think it is a spur!" ”
"Yes! Checkmate! Dozens of eagles agreed together and bowed to the judge.
"Alas! This, how dare you do this? The judge was at a loss, but he didn't know what to do.
"Zhengnan Xiu is going to be polite!" Nanying put his arm around his shoulders and shouted, "Someone! Good wine and good meat are put out to celebrate today's meeting between Ben Jiang and Jeongnam! ”
"General!" In the eyes full of joy, there was a faint crystal. He knew that in this life and this life, no matter whether he really joined Bohai's subordinates or not, today's feeling of lifting up the instrument will never be erased.
On a lonely boat, in the slightly faint drunken eyes, he still saw the black-haired and black-armored figure on the shore, waving his hand uncontrollably, he couldn't help but struggle to stand up, and bowed respectfully to the shrinking figure.
"Brother Nan, your performance today is really confusing to everyone!" Gao Shun's voice sounded from behind Nanying, and he said in surprise: "Listening to your tone before, I only said that you would beat the messenger out of the tent with a mess after a cold speech!" ”
"This person is different!" Nan Ying looked at the person who gave the salute on the boat, and also returned the salute from afar, only then did he turn around and throw a meaningful smile towards Gao Shun: "This is a real loyal minister and a direct minister, I don't want him to become our mortal enemy in the future!" ”
"I see, you're trying to recruit him?" Gao Shun suddenly realized: "I said, why did you change your character?" Not bad! One more of your own people is better than one more enemy! ”
"And that's not all!" Nan Ying shook his head and said: "Yuan Shao's new surrender to the generals of Jizhou, many of whom are still not loyal to him, if we can show far more than Yuan Shao's tolerance, we can successfully disintegrate its internal unity...... Don't forget, our Bohai Sea is Jizhou! ”
"I hope that I can ...... from the judge" He stared at the small boat in the distance and said softly: "The first step out of this Ningding Jizhou!" (To be continued......)
