"The water is shining and sunny, and the mountains are empty and rainy. If you want to compare West Lake to Xizi, it is always appropriate to wear heavy makeup. ”

This song "Drinking the Lake After the First Sunny Day and the Rain" depicts the beautiful scenery of the West Lake vividly, in fact, compared with the West Lake, the beauty of Suzhou and Hangzhou seems to be more famous.

At the banquet set up at the West Lake Painting Boat that night, Zhizhou Tan Yuan, who knew that he had made a big mistake, not only invited all the famous prostitutes in Hangzhou, but also prepared a generous gift for Cai You.

If you have money and so on, you can rest assured under the heavy money, and you accepted Tan Yuan's generous gift, and the anger that has been hanging on Cai You's face can't be alleviated.

Seeing the Jin soldiers invading on a large scale, and the officials of the Great Song Dynasty in Hangzhou City were still immersed in the Yingge Yan Dance, Li Nan shook his head and drank all the wine in the cup.

Seeing Li Nan's unhappy face, Cai You hurriedly asked carefully: "General Huo, but is it inappropriate to have wine, food, singing and dancing, and prostitutes at this banquet?" ”

"The wine is good, the stage is beautiful, and the people are pretty, but this general was ordered by the emperor to lead a large army to aid the Song Dynasty, and he just wants to defeat the Jin soldiers as soon as possible and return to the country."

Speaking of this, Li Nan asked, "Young Master Cai, when will the boats on the canal be ready?" ”

"It's coming, it's coming, it's about the same in three or five days." Cai You raised his glass and saluted: "General Huo will stay for a few days with peace of mind, come, please!" ”

Li Nan was made to cry and laugh by these Song officials, since the people of the Song Kingdom were not in a hurry, he seemed to be a little self-indulgent, and immediately ate and drank.

"The light wine is in front of the people, and the nephrite lamp is embraced. Looking back into the embrace is always reasonable, painful and painful. Push Lang lightly. Gradually hearing the trembling, slightly frightened red. Try and change the longitudinal, there is no seam, this time the flavor is crazy, moving, arms together, lips together, tongues playing with each other......"

There were explicit words sung by courtesans in his ears, and Li Nan sincerely found that the ancients were also very open in this regard, and such words were actually sung in public.

The curious Li Nan asked: "This poem is very special, I don't know who made it?" ”

"Hahaha......" Cai You put down his wine glass and said proudly: "This is done by His Majesty Huizong of the Great Song Dynasty, isn't it very charming?" ”

"Huh?" Li Nan and the two brothers Juno and Eligon, who were at the same table, were stunned when they heard this answer.

Cai You was not ashamed but smiled proudly: "General Huo, the old man knows that your Chinese Empire has sharp firearms and a mighty war elephant army, but I'm afraid that in the way of poetry, it is still a little worse than my Great Song Dynasty, right?" ”

Originally, Li Nanzhen was not in the mood to chant poetry, but when he saw the exquisite painting boats on the West Lake, as well as the officials and businessmen of the Song State who were singing, dancing and drinking when the country was in danger, he immediately chanted:

"Outside the mountain, Qingshan Building, outside the building, when will the West Lake sing and dance be closed? The warm wind smoked everyone drunk, and they forgot all about the monarch and the ministers and became prisoners. ”

This poem by the Southern Song Dynasty poet Lin Sheng's "Title Lin'an Residence" was originally expressed by describing the music scene, satirizing the Southern Song Dynasty monarchs and ministers after the shame of Jingkang, the rulers did not want to recover the lost land of the Central Plains, but only sought peace and security, surrendered to the outside world, brutally persecuted patriots internally, and blindly indulged in sensuality.

Li Nan changed the last sentence and upgraded the poem from a satirical to a mockery, which made the many Song officials who were drinking and having fun in the painting boat instantly froze, and the smile on Cai You's face slowly solidified.

It seemed that this banquet could not be held, Li Nan got up and said to everyone: "The hour is not early, the general will still go back to the camp to rest, I hope that Cai Shaofu and Tan Zhizhou will urge the ships more and send our army north as soon as possible." ”

-----------------------

Three days later, Cai You finally sent someone to report that all the ships had been prepared, and as long as all the imperial troops boarded the ships, they could go north directly.

Li Nan led the army into Hangzhou City and headed towards the port of Xicheng, only to see every household close their doors and windows along the way, but there were still many pairs of curious eyes on the second floor.

Columns of silver-armored cavalry marched forward in unison, and in the middle of the line were the bull-roaring hoplites dressed in heavy plate armor, armed with knives, armor-piercing guns, throwing axes, and giant grenades, and finally ordinary musketeers.

Seeing this well-groomed imperial army, many people of insight in the Song Kingdom were worried and frightened, and when hundreds of three-meter-tall, also wearing plate armor and carrying two-meter-long solid all-steel maces, appeared, the cries of women and children were heard from the small buildings on both sides of the road.

When Li Nan came to the port, he saw countless large trees ten feet high, eight feet high at the head, and fifty sails with regular winds; If it is slightly off, use a canopy to spread the left and right wings to facilitate the wind; At the top of the big tree, there are ten smaller sails, and the wind breath is used for large cargo ships.

These ships were all civilian cargo ships requisitioned by the Song Dynasty, and looking at the faces of those shipowners and shipwrights, it is estimated that they also worked for free.

As long as Li Nan's army could be sent to the vicinity of Tokyo City, then Cai You's drudgery would be over, because he hurriedly ordered everyone to let the imperial reinforcements board the ship.

"Wait!" Seeing that several cargo ships were approaching the shore trestle and set up a springboard, Li Nan suddenly raised his hand to stop it.

Cai You came to Li Nan and asked with a smile: "General Huo, do you have anything else?" ”

"Absolutely." Li Nan said to Cai You with a strange smile on his face: "Young Master Cai, do you know how to swim?" ”

"Swimming?" Cai You asked suspiciously, "Why did the general say this?" ”

Li Nan pointed to the many large cargo ships in the port and said, "General Ben has heard that many of these ships have holes in the bottom compartment, so he is a little worried about the safety of the young master!" ”

"There's a hole in the bilge!" After Cai You heard the news, after a little thought, he understood the meaning of Li Nan's words, and his face suddenly turned pale.

Ever since Emperor Huizong Zhao Ji agreed to lead the imperial army into the Song State to resist the Jin soldiers, the government and the opposition were divided into two factions and quarreled.

One side hoped that this move would defeat both the imperial army and the Jin soldiers and solve the misfortune in the north, while the other side believed that the imperial court was luring wolves into the house and strongly opposed the matter.

It seems that many of the owners and shipwrights of these cargo ships also thought so, so they secretly chiseled through the bilge and wanted to bury the 30,000 soldiers in the Beijing-Hangzhou Canal.

Cai Yu didn't care about the life or death of Li Nan and the imperial army under his command, but he couldn't help but be furious when he thought that he would also go north with the army by boat, and he would die in the water after he died.

Cai You said coldly to the many Song officials on Liangzhejiang Road: "Board the ship and investigate thoroughly!" Not a single rioter can be spared! ”

The port of Hangzhou was garrisoned by large Song warships, and these large cargo ships could not escape at all, so they could only wait for the Song soldiers to board the ship to investigate thoroughly.

After some searching, there were indeed hundreds of cargo ships whose bilges had been dug out and sealed with corks and fish glue, and once the fleet began to sail, it could be pulled out of the boat, released into the water, and sunk at any time halfway.

Li Nan didn't expect this festival originally, but this time there were ninjas trained by Hattori Hanzo and others who came with the army.

These ninjas have a lot of role, they can detect the enemy in peacetime, they can also steal information, assassinate enemy dignitaries, and the news about these cargo ships is what they secretly investigated.
