Lin Yuyan regretted it, but looked at the map of Luoyang in the back seat.

Alien land?

"It seems that the location of the old wharf in Shuyang......"

Lin Yuyan found the location of the land from the map, which is not too far from the wharf of Shuyang, it is very old, but because it is the location of the wharf of Shuyang, it is also used as the residence of the people who beg for work on the current wharf.

"Could it be that these bandits want to kill the relatives of the people on the dock to vent their anger?" Jing Yi also stood beside him and reminded.

"It's possible," Lin Yuyan also believed in this answer.

However, Han Kui dared to be so sure that the land would be the next target of the Shuyang water bandits, and he should have some certainty.

But obviously, this grasp should never be pinned on the subjective will of the water bandits to vent their anger!

So why?

Lin Yuyan was puzzled.

Sometimes, the perspective of looking at things is very problematic with individuals, Han Kui traveled all over the country, and dealt with civilians a lot, although Lin Yuyan himself also dealt with civilians in many ways and got a lot of information, but it is different from Han Kui, a wise man who grew up in the people since childhood, and this is not a problem of height, but from his own limitations.

"It seems that it is not so simple to quell this gang of water bandits in Shuyang!" Lin Yuyan also thought so.

So Lin Yuyan turned around and instructed Jing Yi: "Jing Yi, send a message to the Lingling and Lieutenant of Shuyang, be sure to set up the shelves of the Shuyang Army for me before dusk, and the grain and grass must also be transported to the front...... Former Huaiyang! ”

Lin Yuyan also paused suddenly, then looked at the map, glanced at it and said with a smile: "I understand, I understand why the Shuyang water bandits want to attack the land, this Han Kui is really far away!" ”

Hearing this, Jing Yi's eyes also looked at the map, and combined with the words of His Royal Highness Fang Cai who suddenly stopped, he also thought for a long time before saying, "Your Highness, this gang of bandits is eyeing our grain and grass?" ”

Hearing the question, Lin Yuyan nodded, then pointed to the location of the map and explained: "Jing Yi, you see, less than three miles in front of the land is the dock of Huaiyang, but because of the water problem, the officials and soldiers of the city do not dare to confront these water bandits on the water, so as long as they occupy this land, and then move forward from the waterway on the west side, where is it?" ”

"The north gate of Shuyang is also the place where the Shuyang army hoards grain and grass!" Jing Yi replied.

Lin Yuyan nodded: "That's true, as long as there is one person who understands this among the water bandits, he must have taken a fancy to this, you now look at the location of the water bandits robbing the village during this period of time, what is the pattern?" ”

Jing Yi looked over, and his Royal Highness marked the location of the water bandits on the map one by one during this period of time, Jing Yi deliberately looked over, as if he had found something, and said: "Your Highness, they will actually be in the villages around the land that may have noticed the movement of the water at night!" ”

"Yes, there should be smart people among this gang of bandits, if the guess is right, it should be that old lady Ma who plans to re-emerge!" Lin Yuyan said.

"Your Highness, you see, if you guess according to Han Kui's meaning, in order to clear the eyeliner around the Bodi, wouldn't the few villages remaining in the Bodi now become the target of this gang of bandits?" Jing Yi reminded.

"Tell them to withdraw, during this time, the villages around the water will be properly arranged around the city of Shuyang, in addition, this time, in addition to the 1,000 members of the Shuyang army, all the villages and townsmen, and even the folk heroes, all requisitioned, distributed weapons, and guarded against water bandits on this water!"

"Yes, I'll inform the commander of the Yang Dynasty and the Lieutenant of the Yang Dynasty!" Jing Yi replied and turned around immediately.

However, Jing Yi hadn't walked out of the door yet, but Lin Yuyan screamed: "Slow! ”

Jing Yi's footsteps came to an abrupt halt.

I saw His Royal Highness raise his head, look at himself and say, "Since these bandits want to play big, then let's play with them......"

At the wharf of Shuyang, there is still a group of original Shuyang defenders under Xiang Ying's hands, but there are only two or three hundred people, but these people are recruited by the new army, and the unqualified ones will be eliminated after all, but since they are the defenders of Shuyang, there are still a few strong men who watch the façade, whether they are sent in by various families by virtue of their relationships, Xiang Ying is also very optimistic about them.

Xiang Ying was really not slow to receive the news from the Shuyang Mansion, but in the article that had just been promulgated at the Shuyang Wharf, because of the changes on the way, the news that the early arrival at the Shuyang Wharf was unqualified was less than half an hour later, and the news was delivered.

Today, Xiang Ying did not feel sorry for this, those who dare to be soldiers are naturally hard in physical fitness, but whether they can have a conscience is not something that can be easily tested.

Xiang Ying read the letter, and then slowly said to the lieutenant beside him: "Leave these people and continue to carry out the test of joining the army!" ”

Hearing this, Du Wei Ji nodded in response, and then asked people to convey the order, and asked people to chase back the people who left.

Fortunately, the sprint did not consume much physical strength due to the change of water bandits, so the next "lifting stones" and "fighting" were not physically demanding items.

Not long after, someone pulled over a few stone seats, ranging in size, but at least seven or eight buckets, and the big ones were all weighing several stones.

Since Yang Xiong was appointed as the temporary centurion of the Shuyang Army, he was arranged by Xiang Ying to work in the establishment of the existing Shuyang Army.

"This stone seat, a total of three grades, the last class is about eight buckets (eighty catties), those who can lift it, are the village brave, the middle ones who lift the stone are yes, according to the upper and lower unequal as the soldiers, the upper and lower two stones, can be the chief of the Shiwu."

Yang Xiong's voice was very loud, and everyone naturally heard it clearly.

The standard for entering the Shuyang Army is to lift a hundred catties of boulders, which is not very difficult, but if you want to serve as a non-commissioned officer with an official position, you have to lift a boulder of two stones, which is not something that ordinary people can do.

"Understand, drink saliva and prepare to lift the stone, anyone who can lift eighty pounds, can participate in the third "fight" competition! Yang Xiong continued.

The crowd lined up and lined up in front of the stone seat one by one.

Although Yang Xiong is a soldier of Neiding Shuyang, when he sees these stone seats, he can't help but want to try his hand.

Yang Xiong is confident in his strength, but there is no skill in lifting stones, relying entirely on real strength, picking sticks can reach hundreds of catties of strength, relying on inertia, but lifting stones, but it is not like this.

Yang Xiong walked directly to a two-stone boulder, stretched out his hand to hold the groove of the force point on both sides, and with a little luck, he took a breath.

"Phew!"

A loud cry spread, and the boulder weighing two stones was lifted by Yang Xiong.

It's just that in the blink of an eye, two boulders rose in response, and Yang Xiong didn't show any difficulty.

Even Xiang Ying couldn't help but praise: "Sure enough, he is a seedling with good strength!" ”

"Color!"

"Good!"

……

Immediately, the audience burst into cheers.
