Early the next morning, Ma Ling was distributing food to the families of Zhuang Ding, and the families of Zhuang Ding who went to the island to farm all distributed 500 catties of grain, considering the difficulties in the disaster area, they temporarily sent 50 catties of pickles, don't take pickles for improper money, salt is very expensive these years, and 50 catties of pickles are equivalent to 500 catties of grain.

Some of the girls were crying, Ma Ling was not happy, and said: "How many times have I told you, in the past, it was just to plant a land, and in my spare time, I built roads and fished." Three meals a day, rice, white flour buns, pork stewed vermicelli, mutton soup, and endless big fish and prawns, big crabs, do you know, the crabs there weigh more than ten pounds, and it takes two strong men to work together to eat a crab. Clothes and shoes are distributed free of charge every year, and the mu of land is given after three years, and those who are unwilling to take the land are directly paid. During this period, you are free to come back, so you don't have to worry. ”

Parting is always inevitable sadness, there is a way is that the homeland is difficult to leave, this year the tide of work has not risen, if it is not for famine, disaster, willing to go out to work is really not much.

Ruda looked at the day, it was not early, and everyone had eaten for a while. Luda said: "Let's go, don't cry, it's unlucky, it's a good thing to work to make money." The one who set off firecrackers and set off. ”

The soldiers lit a few firecrackers and crackled for a while, and Luda led fifty soldiers to escort five hundred strong men to Huanghua Port in Cangzhou.

These strong men are carefully selected men, each of them has nothing else on them except for a dozen catties of dry food, flatbread and quilts, and this way is faster than the convoy of mules and horses, and they have reached the boundary of Cangzhou in five days.

At noon on this day, the sun is old, and the round sun is like a big red baked cake, which makes people dare not look at it directly. There was a large poplar forest on the side of the road, and Luda saw that the big guy was sweating, and said: "The big guy went into the woods to rest, boiled some boiling water, gnawed some flatbread, and sprinkled the family to buy a few sheep from the front village, so that everyone could open and replenish their physical strength." ”

The guide veteran who led the team said to Luda: "This is the mansion of the Chai officials in Cangzhou, and the Chai officials are hospitable, why don't you go to him to ask for something." In the past, when Zhuang Ding passed by, Chai officials would send some pigs and sheep. ”

How did this ordinary soldier know that Chai Jin and Chao Gai had many projects in business, and Lu Da said: "The Sprinkle family has also heard of the name of Chai Daguan, but they don't know if the distance is far away. ”

The guide said: "It's only six or seven miles back and forth, it's very close." ”

Immediately, Luda arranged for everyone to rest in the woods, brought a guide, and the two hurried to Chai Jinfu on foot. In the middle of the line, a person rode a horse and galloped past, which was also a small accident, just some water on the road, and the horse's hooves stepped into it, and the muddy water splashed Luda's body. Ruda was notoriously hot-tempered, and immediately shouted: "You guy, how can you ride a horse." ”

Immediately, the man hurriedly stopped the horse, dismounted and said, "I was in a hurry just now, I'm sorry." ”

Luda saw it straight, the man riding the horse had a leopard head and eyes, and he was tall, it was none other than his good brother Lin Chong.

Luda laughed: "Haha, it turned out to be Brother Lin Chong, how could I meet you here." ”

Lin Chong was also surprised, and said: "It turned out to be Brother Luda, I felt that the back was so familiar just now, but I never thought it would really be you." ”

"The Sprinkle family went out of Tokyo that day, and went to the boundary of Yuncheng County, and went to Brother Chao Gai, Brother Chao Gai was righteous, and immediately arranged for me to be in the Jeju group training, but Gao Yu Lao Er chased after him tightly, so he had to let the Sprinkle family go to Shuibo to hide for a long time. The Sprinkle family only listened to Na Ma Ling's light words, saying that there are endless fish and shrimp on the island every day, and these strong men are envious. Ruda said.

Lin Chong also explained in detail how he was assigned to the Cangzhou prison camp, and how he got the help of Chao Gai and Chai Jin, and was so shocked that Luda sighed and made people.

Lin Chong said: "Brother Luda doesn't know, there are unimaginably many fish and shrimp in the sea, and when you arrive at Huanghua Port, you will be guaranteed to have endless fish and shrimp every day." Let's go to the Chai Daguanren Mansion together, I just happened to come over today to instruct Zhuang Ke in martial arts. ”

Luda was not polite, and immediately went to Chai Jin's house with Lin Chong, Chai Jin happened to be at home, Chai Jin was sharp-eyed, and saw Luda at a glance, and exclaimed: "Who is this master, who looks so majestic." ”

Lin Chong said: "This is my good brother, Luda. Now he is an officer of the Jeju regiment training, and this time he led troops to escort Zhuang Dingde. ”

Chai Jin was overjoyed: "It turned out to be the Luda brothers, please come in quickly, today Lin Jiaotou doesn't need to train the villagers, set up a banquet with wine, and entertain the Luda brothers." ”

Luda hurriedly shook his head: "Thank you for the kindness of the Chai officials, this time the escort is in a hurry, not to mention that the strong men are still eating flatbread in the woods, and the Sprinkle family came to the village to buy a few pigs and sheep." ”

Chai Jin said: "I see, Brother Luda is not worried, so I will send someone to send two pigs and sheep, and let the two butchers go over to help deal with it." It takes time for them to eat, so let's just have a light meal here. ”

Luda didn't shirk when he saw it, Chai Jin immediately arranged, and after a while, he arranged four dishes, a plate of large prawns, the shrimp was so big that there were two or two, a plate of pike crab, a plate of large yellow croaker, and a plate of fried hairtail.

Ruda said: "The Sprinkler family has eaten a lot of fish and shrimp during this time, but they are all in the water, and this is the first time I have eaten anything in the sea." ”

I immediately tasted the prawns and crabs, and the taste was really delicious.

Chai Jin persuaded him to drink again, and Luda said: "It's true that the family has good wine, but it's not that it can't be distinguished from the severity, and now that I'm on escort duty, ordinary soldiers can't drink, let alone me, the battalion commander." Eat vegetables, eat vegetables. ”

Chai Jin said that he would no longer persuade him to drink, and accompanied Lu Dalin to eat seafood for the two.

Lin Chong said: "There is an old man in the salt field, named Shi Jin, who often mentions the Luda brothers. ”

Luda smiled: "Shi Jin, that's a good brother of the Sprinkle family, I heard that he was in the army, but I haven't seen him." ”

Chai Jin said: "Brother Shi Jin is terrible, now in charge of three hundred cavalry, leading Yang Chun and Chen Da two lieutenant generals to guard the Huanghua Salt Field, and the Kongyang Fleet at sea is responsible for the safety of the salt field. ”

Luda exclaimed: "Shibei should be impressed for three days, I didn't expect the Shi Jin brothers to progress so fast." ”

On the same day, the Zhuang Ding stayed in Chai Jinzhuang, and the next day Chai Jin arranged breakfast, everyone got up early in the morning, and Lin Chong also accompanied Luda to the salt farm.

On the school grounds, a group of cavalry was assaulting back and forth, and a young general rode a horse, wearing armor, and holding a three-pointed and two-edged spear in his hand.

Lin Chong shouted from afar: "Camp Commander Shi, Camp Commander Shi, there are old friends visiting. ”

Shi Jin rode a horse and galloped, only to see a fat monk next to Lin Chong riding a big horse and holding a huge Zen staff in his hand.

Shi Jin turned over and dismounted, and bowed: "It turned out that Brother Luda had arrived, and some time ago the army reported that Brother Luda was also promoted to be the battalion commander, but he was busy with military affairs and didn't have time to go back to Yuncheng to visit." ”

Luda said: "Da Lang is strong, I heard Sect Leader Lin say that you are good at guns and sticks." ”

Shi Jin said with a smile: "That's Lin Jiaotou's praise, thanks to Wang Jiaotou's guidance on weekdays, and when I arrived at the salt farm, there was Lin Jiaotou's guidance, this kung fu is quite passable." Shi Jin knew that he was stupid and did not dare to slack off. ”

Luda patted Shi Jin on the shoulder and said, "Brother Chao Gai is very loving, and he really can't live up to him." ”

Shi Jin said: "Exactly." Let's go to the side to talk, the cavalry is rehearsing. ”

Luda said: "It just depends on how the troops trained by the brothers. ”

On the school field, three hundred cavalry were scattered and lined up, one by one with sharp cavalry knives in their hands, hundreds of straw handles standing in front of them, the drums of war rang out, the cavalry began to charge, the horses' hooves trampled the ground, and the dust was flying. Razor-sharp cavalry knives cut down one grass target after another.

Luda said: "Brother, this cavalry is not bad, compared to the cavalry training of the Western Army, it is hardworking, you see that the war horse is not a little fat." ”

Shi Jin bared his teeth: "Brother Chao Gai said that the steppe horse ran fast because the steppe wolf forced it out, and the war horse had to run every day, and if it didn't run for a long time, it degenerated." ”

Luda was itchy and proposed: "I haven't seen you for a few years, and I don't know how your martial arts have grown, so why don't we two learn from each other." ”

"Okay, I can't ask for it." Shi Jin smiled, "Are we fighting on foot or on horse?" ”

Luda said: "Foot fighting, the war horse of the Sprinkle family has run dozens of miles today." ”

Immediately, Luda and Shi Jin each took a stick, Luda had a big stick in his hand, and shook it twice, Shi Jin just spit out a portal, and never played the stick like a windmill again.

Immediately, the two of them fought in one place, and the dust was flying, and the surrounding spectators applauded. After more than 20 rounds, Luda said: "Brother Shi Jin has really learned real skills. ”

Shi Jin also jumped out of the circle with his stick and sighed: "It's still not enough to look at my brother, I have to continue to work hard." ”

Luda, Lin Chong, and Shi Jin talked in the school field and chatted for a long time. When Luda first came, he was very curious about the salt farm, and immediately Shi Jin accompanied Luda to watch around the salt field, where there were busy workers everywhere, as well as piles of sea salt like a hill. There are more than ten centipede ships and three flying eagle warships on the sea, which are too far away to see clearly, but they should also be training.

Luda said: "This should be the naval army led by Kong Yang." ”

Shi Jin said: "Brother Luda is also very familiar with the water army? ”

Luda said: "Don't mention it, Brother Chao Gai said that as a general, at least you have to take a boat without getting dizzy, and you have to go back to swimming." The Sprinkle family grew up in the northwest since childhood, and they were afraid when they saw water, and they suffered a crime in order to learn to swim. But seeing the sea, I feel that the little bit of swimming that I learned is useless, and this wave is too big. ”

"There are endless treasures and food in the sea, almost all of those delicious fish and shrimp come from the sea, and some time ago a ship returned from overseas and brought several big crabs, guess how big?" Shi Jin said.
