Chapter 335: Song Gongming Weaves a Net, Ruan Xiaoer Burns the Ship [Ask for Subscription]
The morning light slowly opened the curtain, and it was another gorgeous and colorful morning, bringing freshness to the world.
Song Jiang was awakened from his slumber, but it was Ma Zheng of Dengzhou City who sent a military order, asking him to lead his troops to quickly rush back to Dengzhou. That Lu Qian's army had already left Ye County and galloped towards Dengzhou.
At the same time, Ma Zheng's praise for Song Jiang was also sent, but it was sent by him to "serve as a soldier and horse in Dengzhou". That is, the meaning of acting for Dengzhou soldiers and horses.
Song Heizi saw the previous order first, and his face was very unpleasant. Since his family knows about his own family affairs, he has Dengzhou's remaining rabble, and they are not the enemies of Liangshanbo at all. Even if Dengzhou City is high and deep, it is useless. There is a super powerful stone cannon in Renliang Mountain, how thick the city can't be opened?
At this time, to go to Dengzhou is to send to death.
But he couldn't help but go, because the dispatch of the soldiers and horses of Dengzhou still needed to go through a formality in Dengzhou City. Ren Ma Zheng is also an old oilman in officialdom, the general trend is him, and Song Heizi's future is in the palm of his hand, no matter how dark his heart is, he can't get around it. And he is also on a secret mission, which is really going to Dengzhou City, for his father.
"Shiro, you can go to the palace for a while. Keep an eye on your whereabouts, and don't get into the eyes of the horse defense. ”
All the characters were present. Song Jiang talked about it, and the group naturally waited for his orders. Iron fan Song Qing Gongsheng took the order.
Song Jiang turned his head to look at Yan Shun again, "Brother Yan Shun, go to the army to select five hundred capable people, sneak day and night, go to Huang County, be sure to avoid the Liangshan Bo thief army." As soon as I saw the wolf smoke rising from the sea, I went to the south shore of Qigu Island to wait. ”
Qijiao Island, also known as Muji Island, is located in the northwest of Huangxian County 20 miles, is a peculiar peninsula that stretches out of the sea like a lonely island and connects with the land. The island is surrounded by the sea on three sides in the south, west and north, and the sand bank is connected with the land, and the island shape is short and horizontal, high in the north and low in the south. It's like a giant arm reaching out to the sea. In the north of the island, there are cliffs, reefs, and attractive waves; In the south of the island, the gentle slope extends, the shallow beach flats, and the fine sand is like gold.
Yan Shun clenched his fists and retreated. He has a personal enmity with Liang Shanbo, but he can't enter Dengzhou City. And these 500 people are obviously the capital that Song Heizi hid for his comeback in the future. How is Lu Qian's real personality Song Jiang has no spectrum in his heart, he can save people by himself, and if he is Lu Qian today, he will not allow Song Jiang to take a large number of people to get off. And there are so many characters who are not all profitable, and there are many people. What is fake is fake, and no matter how real it is, it is also fake. If there are smart people who see the flaws, Song Jiang can only fall into the grass.
"Kong Liang." Song Jiang summoned Mao Touxing again and told him to go to Dengzhou Chai to contact, which was his future support for getting out of trouble, so he counted on Dengzhou Chai's fleet.
With Song Heizi's relationship in the rivers and lakes, how did he not know that Jiangnan and Liangshanbo had a close relationship, and the land of Huainan could never go. At that time, the Manichaeans raised troops, and the land of Huainan was sandwiched between Qilu and Jiangnan, but was it just a rat drilling bellows, and the two ends were angry? It's better to throw north to Cangzhou.
And Liang Shanbo and Cangzhou Chai officials also have a constant relationship, and taking the path of the Chai family also has an extra layer of prevention. Lu Qian of the province turned his face and didn't recognize people, and he gave his group of people to the pit.
Looking around Song Jiang's team again, there is still a tall and strong man, but it is Yu Baosi, who is nicknamed the God of Danger. In the context of today's era, Yu Baosi did not rob Liangshanbo's horses, but I heard that the Liangshanbo army that had just entered Qingzhou went straight to Qingfeng Mountain, and the three leaders only survived a Jinmao Tiger who saw the opportunity to go one step earlier, and Yu Baosi also patted his ass and came to Laizhou. After Song Jiang and his group came, Yan Shun heard about Yu Baosi's name in Laizhou, and immediately went to recruit him, which was a success in one fell swoop.
"Now that Liangshan is strong, you brothers are patient. When I jump out of the Shandong cage, I will wait for the hero to show his skills again. Fight to be a wife and son, and leave a good name in the history of the youth for a long time, and it will not be in vain for a lifetime. ”
"I, Song Jiang, have no ability, and even if I am loyal, I can't make progress in the first 30 years. Fortunately, with the support of your brothers, I have received the position of this generation of Dengzhou soldiers and horses, and I am very fortunate and ashamed. The martial arts talents of all brothers are ten times better than Song Jiang, and they should also work hard, and they will definitely be able to do it by high-ranking officials in the future, and they will enjoy it. The glorious lintel is called the glory of the ancestors. ”
A dry person's face was churning with blood, and his chest was like a rough sea, surging and falling. Dengzhou Terracotta Tizhi, the official position of the Eight Classics, is not a small sesame grain official who is not worth mentioning. This suddenly has a ready-made role model, which is still generated in front of their eyes, and this impact on the cadres is very great. also made Song Jiang's words about recruiting them in the past become true.
Dengzhou Port is a large port, but limited by the times, its three trade objects are really one is the northern Khitan and Jurchen, which are mainly smuggled and occasional; One is remote Toei Japan; The other is the most important Goryeo.
But Koreans also prefer Banqiao Town in Jiaozhou Bay to Dengzhou or Laizhou. Who called this a military port? The Goryeo people, one slave and two masters, their other masters are the Khitan Daliao in the north.
Even in the Northern Song Dynasty, in the early days, because of Dengzhou and Laizhou Port, "the seaway to Liao Yiyi'er", "Dengzhou is close to the north, the number is the extreme edge, and the mountains and rivers in the captives are faintly visible, so the wind sails to the city." "Especially Laizhou Port in Laizhou Bay, closer to the boundary river. Therefore, trade was explicitly restricted and prohibited, and the ports of Dengzhou and Laizhou entered the stage of closing the port during the Qingli period.
It is for political and military reasons, called Dengzhou, which has been the political, military and economic center of the Jiaodong Peninsula for hundreds of years, but it cannot carry forward the maritime trade that was very prosperous in the Han and Tang dynasties, but it is called Tokyo City to set up a city in Banqiao Town.
It's just that compared with Laizhou, which is completely sluggish in shipping, Dengzhou is already lucky. With the arrival of the Shenzong Dynasty, in the past 50 years, Dengzhou Port has recovered a lot.
Zhang Rong and Meng Wei got the military order of Erruan, and they were neatly dressed, and their entourage Ruan Xiaowu easily blended into the port of Dengzhou. There is a restaurant towards the port. Although there are dozens of ships in the sea, no one dares to go out, and the business of the nearby restaurants has been greatly affected. Seeing that Ruan Xiaowu, Zhang Rong and Meng Wei were dressed in brocade clothes, they were very vigorous, and there were seven or eight neatly dressed entourages behind them. The bartender in the shop seemed to have seen a savior, and hurriedly led them to the upstairs Accord to sit on the ground, rolled up the curtains on three sides, and looked at the nearby bay with sails, and the sea and sky in the distance.
The bartender moved the wine and food to the table, and Zhang Rong got up and sifted a bowl of wine for Ruan Xiaowu first. The sun was blazing overhead, and when they walked from the safe house to the port, they were all covered in heat.
Ruan Xiaowu picked up the wine bowl and drank it all, but it was only a little relieved of the heat in his heart. It's just that there will be no ice cubes in this place, and when the sun is scorching, there will not be a lot of chilled melons and fruits like Liangshan to relieve the heat.
In the first winter of Shangliang Mountain, Lu Qian asked people to organize the captives to dig and take ice, and built five large ice cellars. However, in the middle of summer the following year, Liangshan Bo felt the taste of 'ice' up and down.
Although there was never enough ice in Liangshanbo, the ice cellars have grown from five to fifteen today.
However, those who have tasted the taste of ice, whenever the sun covers their heads, they will always miss it in their hearts.
Even Pan Jinlian, who has moved to Yidu at this moment, also misses the shaved ice in Liangshanbo at this time.
Zhang Rong and Meng Wei didn't know what ice was cold, these two were fishermen from Liangshan Bobian, and they lived in poverty, but their personalities were far less explosive than the three heroes of the Ruan family. When they saw that Liangshanbo's momentum was unstoppable, the two chose not to go to Liangshanbo to defect, but to move to Dengzhou with their families.
The two were the first to carry goods at Dengzhou Wharf for a living. The bitterness of being a coolie did not overwhelm the two, but the bullying of the bullies on the dock made the two loyal and honest men unbearable.
And it was the two of them who were lucky to be pulled by the newcomer Duchenne. So it was very logical that when Liang Shanbo sent people to run the sea, the two got on the boat. There are also Jia Hu and Zheng Zhu, and the four of them are the big leaders of the four sea ships led by Er Ruan.
When the sky was dark, I saw that the port wharf was dark, that is, the lights on those ships were out, and even some small boats were not left behind, and there was no longer the scene of the night light like thousands of stars in the past.
Dengzhou Port is not only twenty or thirty sea boats, but also many foot boats and fishing boats.
It's about the time of the first shift. There was a figure who quietly came to the dock, Ruan Xiaowu immediately jumped up to greet him, and asked, "Can you meet with Leader Du?" In the darkness the man returned: "We have met. Here's the key. But the oil and gunpowder had been transferred to the dock by Duchenne unconsciously.
Ruan Xiaowu took the key, and his face showed a hideous.
At the third watch, I saw a fire on the northeast corner of the pier, and the flames rose into the air. Then suddenly there was the beating of drums, followed by shouts. But it was Ruan Xiaowu, Zhang Rong, Meng Wei and the soldiers of the 120th Water Division, holding swords in their hands, shouting loudly.
Ruan Xiaowu stood on a high platform on the dock and shouted: "Listen to the boat owners around, the heroes of Liangshan are also acting here." Now because of something, we must set a big fire and do not hurt the good businessmen. Governors, rest in peace and sleep on the shore. "The inns around the hotel, when I saw the open fire holding the staff, I thought that many robbers were coming, and I was already panicking. Now that I heard that it was Liang Shanbo, I was even more afraid, who knows if the officers and soldiers will come in a while, and they will not dare to move.
"The good boat owners who acted kindly in the past, don't be heartbroken for the sea boats, in the coming day, I Liangshanbo occupies Dengzhou City, you just have to come to the door with the credentials. I Liangshanbo paid a lot of compensation...... "It's a pity that the 'big head' in this fire, those sea ships, will not have the owner to come to Liangshanbo as a companion."
Don't say that in the current era, it is the Ming and Qing dynasties hundreds of years later, how can the merchants who can run to the sea be pure and good people and kind gentry? Joke.
When Wang Shizhong hurriedly rode to the dock, the entire Dengzhou dock was already in a sea of fire. Twenty or thirty ships are burning on the sea like super large torches, and the surrounding boats are small torches. Some of them had burned down, and only a few pieces of wood remained.
"Huh." Wang Shizhong was annoyed at first, but after calming down a little, he was surprised to find that where did the two 5,000-material ships under his name go? There are a total of three large ships of 5,000 materials under the name of the Wang family, which one is still far away in Goryeo, and the remaining two are blocked in the port. Turning to the dock inspector asked.
The latter replied with a bitter face, not only the two huge ships of five thousand materials were robbed by the Liangshan Bo people, but also three big ships of three or four thousand materials were also robbed by Liangshan Bo. After the fire was ignited, several large ships were not affected at the first time, and the sailors pulled their anchors and set sail without thinking about it, and sailed out of the harbor. Then he was caught by the bandits waiting outside the port.
Wang Shi was so angry that he wanted to vomit blood.
