Chapter 212: Xiao Lang Goes to Gold (II)

In the impression of Song Zheng's later generations, when the Yellow River entered Shandong, it should have been heading to the northeast (read the full text of the Otherworldly Becoming a God). In fact, this is not the case, Huang He walked a "zigzag" in the north of Licheng, and the Yellow River pass of Shandong Pass is at the top of this zigzag. Guards were set up in places where the water surface was narrower both upstream and downstream. Therefore, the place where Song Zheng and others crossed the river was not the narrowest place on the water surface, but a water surface more than a mile wide.

The carriage traveled northeast for an hour, and Song Zheng heard the sound of the Yellow River from a distance. However, this season, the water level of the Yellow River is stable, coupled with the drought in the upper reaches, there is no imagined sound of turbulent water.

There was no road ahead, and the carriage stopped. Guan Chen tied his horse and led Song Zheng and the four of them forward. A mile ahead, under the embankment, there was a pear grove. After Song Zheng and the others entered the forest, they found the hut watching the orchard. The steward stepped forward, knocked on the door. Soon, six young men came out of the house (the latest chapter of Yi Renxing). Without further ado, the men lifted several straw curtains in front of the house, revealing the boat below.

Six youths lifted the boat and began to walk towards the embankment. Song Zheng and Wanyan Yusheng supported Yuse, followed by Zhang Zong and Guan Chen.

Jumping over the embankment, several people crouched behind several water willows. More than 100 zhang away in front of you, there is the rolling Yellow River. Although the water is not fast, it still makes a gurgling sound. The moonlight shines down, and there is not a trace of brilliance on the muddy water.

Song Zheng never imagined that he would see the Yellow River in this way in this life. There was talk about the sound of water and the occasional cricket, and there was no other sound, which seemed extraordinarily quiet. Looking from the coast to the east and west, there is only the vast river water, and in the distance is a cloud of inky black, and it is impossible to see anything.

At this time, Guan Chen said in a low voice, "Xiaolang, after you cross the river in a straight line, it will be safe to cross the embankment, and there will be our people over there to answer you." ”

Song Zheng nodded, secretly admiring the Guan Chen's proper arrangement.

Then, the minister commanded, "Erhei, Huzi, after you send Song Gongzi across the river, you don't have to come back tonight, just send Song Gongzi to where he wants to go." The next time you come back, you'll come back with you. ”

Two of the men nodded. The young man named Erhei asked, "What about this boat?" ”

Huzi smiled, "It's better to do the same, let it float down the water, and the officials and soldiers are still counting on it to receive a reward of two taels of silver!" ”

Guan Chen nodded.

Song Zheng shook his head secretly, there are policies and countermeasures. Presumably, it was the guards guarding the various small passes, using this way to make some extra money, so they didn't do their best to patrol and deliberately left some holes. Although the back and forth smugglers and the guards did not meet, they formed a tacit understanding.

In this case, it is not difficult to understand why Tuma and others came to Daikin so smoothly.

Everyone waited for two quarters of an hour, and a little fire suddenly appeared on the Western River (Genshin Rebirth read the full text). Guan Chen shouted in a low voice, "Everyone, pay attention, the officers and soldiers are here, cover your body." ”

Then, he explained to Song Zheng, "The official ships patrol the river day and night, and a boat usually goes down the river every half an hour. During the day, it comes up from downstream. This is true from Licheng to Qingzhou, and from Qingzhou to the estuary. Of course, it's not too fixed. Sometimes just one passes, and then another one comes after. ”

Song Zheng suddenly realized, no wonder he had to wait here. If it was in the middle of the crossing, and the official ship arrived, it would only be a matter of waiting for death. The speed of the official ship and the power of the rocket make it easy to leave the boat behind before it lands on the opposite shore.

The official ship went down the river at a high speed. Song Zheng could find the sailors standing on the boat for a week, each holding a torch to illuminate the water, and the others were all carrying longbows, carefully watching the movements around them.

Everyone hurriedly bowed down, and the boat was also hidden in the bushes.

The official ship passed quickly, and no one was found. After the official ship was four or five miles away, the steward observed the west, and found no more official ships, so he quickly said, "Quick, put the ship in the water and board the ship!" ”

The six men took off their shoes, set up the boat, and ran out to the water. Song Zheng picked up Yuse and led the way. Zhang Zong and Wan Yan Yusheng also followed. Towards the surface of the water, silt began to appear. Song Zheng also took off his shoes and stuffed them into Yuse. Zhang Zong and Wan Yan Yusheng also followed suit.

The six men walked into the water, went forward two feet, then lowered the boat, and pushed two feet deeper into the water before stopping. Erhei and Huzi flipped onto the boat and took out two boat pulps from the cabin.

When Song Zheng came to the front of the boat, the water was waist-deep. Song Zheng tried his best to lift Wanyan Yuse up and not let him get wet, as for Wanyan Yusheng and Zhang Zong, the water was wet to the waist.

After pushing Yan Yuse onto the boat, Song Zheng also jumped up and pulled Zhang Zong and Wan Yan Yusheng up (read the full text of the modern merry overlord). The remaining four men pushed the boat hard, and the boat headed out into the river. The four men turned around and walked towards the shore. In the cabin, Wan Yan Yusheng and Zhang Zong took out their clothes from their backpacks and changed into wet clothes. Song Zheng silently used the secret spectrum of Chunyang to prevent the wind and cold. Yu Se sat on the side of the boat, staring blankly at the water, not knowing what to think.

The boat had just entered the water seventy or eighty feet away, when suddenly, two miles away from the embankment, a rocket jumped into the air. Song Zheng saw that about thirty officers and soldiers had appeared and were speeding towards this side. I think I found someone smuggling and came to arrest him.

"Damn, these soldiers patrolling the embankment, they haven't come out once in ten days and a half, what are you crazy about today?" Erhei at the bow of the boat scolded dissatisfiedly and rowed up quickly.

At the stern of the boat, Huzi laughed and scolded, "Let these rabbit cubs chase after you, and you won't be able to shoot grandpa when you chase them." ”

At this moment, another spark appeared in the distance to the west.

Another official ship is coming!

Song Zheng was shocked and urged the two to row quickly. The two didn't dare to bother to talk any longer, and rowed the boat with all their might. After estimating the time, Song Zheng's heart sank. The officer ship was extremely fast, and it was very likely that it was within range of the boat before it approached the north shore. Song Zheng was secretly anxious.

Something more troublesome came, and downstream, the fire also appeared. I think it was the official ship that had just passed by that spotted the rocket of the officers and soldiers patrolling the embankment, that is, it hung up its sails and marched against the current.

What to do?

While Song Zheng was anxious, four figures jumped up the embankment, three of them rushing towards the officials and troops facing the west, and the other scurrying east along the embankment. As he ran, he shouted, "Help! ”

It is none other than Xiao Xun among the Xiao brothers.

The four masters were trying to distract the attention of the two official ships in this way.

Song Zheng couldn't help but scold, this kind of work called "life-saving" should be done by Li Hongniang, and it is more attractive than Xiao Xun (Virus King txt download).

…………

Eiji and the Xiao brothers, after passing through several arrows, quickly exchanged hands with the official army. The three of them were like tigers in the group, and the screams immediately rang out.

Song Zheng saw that the official ship in the west really pulled the boat to the side of the riverbank, but the one that went up the river was heading towards the small boat of Song Zheng and the others. However, due to the backwater, the speed is not fast.

Song Zheng breathed a long sigh of relief, turned his head and looked again, Er Hei and Huzi were already covered with sweat because they were rowing too hard, and their physical strength was a little exhausted. Now just across the center of the river, there is still a hundred zhang distance from the other side of the river. Looking at this, two people will definitely not be able to support it.

Song Zheng thought for a while, stretched out his hand and pulled out the fish intestine sword, and fixed the boat to two wooden planks on the sides of the ship. He carried his sword like flying, and quickly made two pulp appearances, threw one of them to Wan Yan Yusheng, and roared, "Hurry up and help row!" ”

In a hurry, Yan Yusheng was not hypocritical, and he and Song Zheng were on one side and rowed hard. The ship, which had slowed down slightly, was getting faster again. Although Wanyan Yusheng is young, he has never practiced martial arts after all, and he can't row after thirty zhang. Zhang Zong hurriedly replaced it.

With the efforts of five people, the boat has maintained a steady speed. By the time the boat landed, all four of them felt exhausted. The small boat drifted downstream with the water, and within a hundred and ten feet, the ship, which was no longer strong, was torn apart. Unfortunately, now is not the time to rest. The muddy ground here is much wider than Daikin's.

Since the founding of the Great Qi Dynasty, the embankment on its side has been built high, but Dajin does not attach much importance to it. Therefore, whenever there is a major flood in the Yellow River, it often rushes into the Dajin side, which also causes the banks of the Dajin Yellow River to be relatively wide. Together with the water of the Yellow River, these tidal flats have become a line of defense against the great need.

Song Zheng put Wan Yan Yuse on his back again, stepped on the almost knee-deep mud, and walked forward. Erhei and Huzi led the way, running forward desperately with one foot deep and one foot shallow.

Behind him, the official ship that was going against the current had stopped (read the full text of Zhibei Tour). Because the official ship was too big, it could not be docked. The sergeant on the boat lowered two small boats while firing useless arrows, and the sixteen sergeants rowed to the shore in two boats.

However, by the time the sixteen sergeants got off the boat, Song Zheng and the others had already crossed the tidal flats of nearly 100 zhang and stepped on the hard ground.

After rubbing two of them with dry earth, everyone put on their shoes and ran forward. Song Zheng wanted to carry Yu Se again, but Yu Se threw off his steps and moved forward. Song Zheng let out a long breath, glanced back, and then accelerated to follow.

On the other side of the river, the battle is over. When the sergeant on the officer's boat down the river came ashore, he found only 30 wounded soldiers screaming on the ground, and the murderer had long since disappeared.

The sergeant in charge of pursuing Song Zheng, except for the two who were left to watch the two small boats, the remaining fourteen people held steel knives in their mouths and shoes in their hands, and desperately rushed forward on the tidal flats.

Song Zheng and the others mustered up their spare strength and rushed onto the dilapidated embankment. Under the embankment, one person, two horses, and a carriage were already waiting there, and this was the person who answered. Song Zheng and the others were naturally overjoyed, and immediately took the carriage and left quickly. When the fourteen sergeants of Daqi crossed the embankment, there was no longer a figure in sight.

On the way, Song Zheng inquired and learned that during the day, Guan Chen had already transmitted the news to Dajin through carrier pigeons. Dajin's side cooperated with Lu Dafu to do business, and he was originally a fellow villager of Lu Dafu, but because he committed an accident in Daqi back then, he ran to Dajin's side and started smuggling with Lu Dafu.

The carriage and horses traveled for an hour until they came to a stop at a tavern. It was already dawn, and everyone was so tired that they had to rest here for a while. As for the pursuers behind, Song Zheng was not worried. There were only a dozen ordinary sergeants, and they didn't dare to go deep into Dajin to pursue.

At this time, Huzi came over and asked, "Song Gongzi, where are we going?" ”

Song Zheng looked at Yan Yusheng and said with a smile: "Dajin Border Pass, military camp!" ”
