Chapter 160: Sending Off

He Zhen's sudden shouting made Li Guo and Gao Yigong's faces slightly gloomy, and they both said in their hearts: There is no warning from the sentinel ship in front, what kind of words do you look like as the general soldier of one side.

Although he was unhappy in his heart, he also stared at the direction pointed by He Zhen in front of him, and it didn't matter when he saw it, and both of them were a little surprised.

I saw that on both sides of the river in front of me, there were cliffs, as high as 10,000 zhang, such as a knife and an axe, straight up and down the ape Mo Pan. The mountain wall stands between the river, so that boaters on the river can see what is above from a long distance.

On one of the cliffs, a huge white cloth surface, ten zhang long and one zhang wide, hangs from the top, and the Chinese character of Douda is written in black ink.

Gao Yigong had never read a book, he didn't know how to read, and he stared at the bull's eye and didn't know why, but Li Guo and He Zhen could read and write, and they frowned at the same time when they looked at the words on the huge banner.

The boat flew like a fly, and soon approached the mountain wall, and the white cloth banner became more real, and the closer you got there, the more you could feel the enormity of this cloth, and it would cost a lot of silver to weave this cloth.

Gao Yigong looked at Li Guo and He Zhen, a little impatient, stretched out his hand and poked He Zhen, and shouted: "He Xiucai, tell me what bird characters are written on that piece of cloth?" Who is so idle and has nothing to do to hang such a thing out? ”

He Zhen frowned, looked up at the dripping black words on the white cloth, and said with doubts: "General, it reads: Wang Huan, the chief soldier of Kuizhou in the Ming Dynasty, congratulates General Li of the loyal battalion to go out of Sichuan, with ten boats of grain and grass, and talk about the heart." ”

Li Guo's eyes looked at the cliff where the white cloth was hung, and his ears listened to He Zhen's recitation, saying no words, solemnly contemplating.

Gao Yigong was stunned, as if he could recognize the words, and looked at the hanging white cloth for a while in a daze, before he asked in a sullen voice: "Kuizhou General Soldier?" Wang Huan? What is the origin? Why haven't you heard of it? ”

He Zhen shook his head and said to Li: "General, in order to prevent fraud, do you want to stop the fleet first and wait for the investigation before leaving?" ”

Li Guo raised his hand and waved it, and said in a deep voice: "No need, the former army outpost ship did not warn, indicating that there was no obstacle ahead, just with a few words of a white cloth, my Dashun army was frightened and stopped, that is delusional!" ”

His face sank like water, and he continued calmly: "Besides, this Kuizhou General Soldier Wang Huan has never heard of it, whether it is made up to scare us is uncertain, let the whole army be on guard, just be careful." ”

Gao Yigong nodded, and gave a few words to the soldiers around him, and immediately someone raised the flag signal on the Zhongjun ship, ordering all ships of the army to fight.

At this moment, the fleet passed under the mountain wall where the white cloth was located, and the word was hanging high above their heads, Li Guo and others carefully observed, and now except for this word, the surrounding mountains and mountains are as usual, there is no trace, except for the birds chirping, the river rushing, there is no noise.

The three of them were even more confused, and Li Guo asked He Zhen: "You have been in Hanzhong for a long time, and you know the situation in central Sichuan well, have you ever heard that the Ming Court still has the town of Kuizhou General Army in Sichuan?" ”

He Zhen shook his head and said: "General, Sichuan has been occupied by Zhang Xianzhong, and the Ming Ting Town has long been scattered, except for Qin Liangyu guarding the small county of Shizhu, there is no large-scale Ming army, even if there are some stragglers wandering in the mountains, I have never heard of the general army of Kuizhou." After Zeng Ying entered Sichuan, he was also appointed as the chief soldier of Sichuan, and there were two deputy chief soldiers of Yang Zhan and Wang Xiang under his hands. ”

Li Guo's brows furrowed even deeper, and he said strangely: "That being the case, who is this Wang Huan?" Who is the Loyal Camp written above? Isn't it written for us to see? ”

He Zhen also said inexplicably: "It also says that ten boats of grain are to be sent to General Li of the Loyal Battalion, and for no reason, to send grain to the ship, what is this for?" ”

Gao Yigong is an anxious child, his temperament is as fierce as fire, and he doesn't like to guess riddles and use his brain the most, and when he heard the two of them say these words, he was at a loss, so he simply shouted: "Since I don't know what's going on, and I haven't seen an ambush, then I don't care, go straight over and see if there is really a boat to send food, and I understand if this white cloth and black characters are written for us to see." ”

A rough person cuts the mess, but it is much simpler than a meticulous person, Li Guo and He Zhen thought about it for a while, since it is impossible to stop and not walk, then let's go, whether it is Longtan Tiger's Den or Yangguan Avenue, just break through.

So the fleet rode the wind and waves, chopping the waves and marching quickly, all the soldiers stood on the boat gang with shields and swords, in case there were soldiers and horses raiding, and set up an ambush on the river, but there was only one way, that is, the front iron cable crossed the river, cut off the way, and then the artillery on both sides of the river was aligned, and the back rushed out of the warship to cut off the way back, and trapped the entire fleet in the middle of the river, so that the turtle could be caught in the urn.

However, Li Guo is not worried, if this is the case, his 80,000 troops directly to the two sides of the strait to grab the beach, climb 6 to sweep the ambush, with the fire to burn the molten iron cable, can break the ambush, he is very confident, in Sichuan except Zhang Xianzhong, no one can organize a stronger army than himself, the so-called ambush refers to who ambushed whom.

If there is really such a number one person as Wang Huan, the chief soldier of Kuizhou, who dares to block the car with his mantis arm, Li Guo does not mind adding the name of a Ming court general to the military merit book.

The white cloth, far behind, gradually disappeared as the fleet marched, and there was not even a single shadow of the ship visible on the river, except for his own fleet, and no one appeared on the shallows of the mountain walls on both sides, so calm that even the wind stopped.

He Zhen turned around and asked a few generals behind him, then turned his head back and said to Li Guo and Gao Yigong: "Two generals, we have entered the boundary of Kuizhou, and the Fengjie River is in front of us, and if you walk a little further, you will be able to see the White Emperor City." ”

When Li Guo heard this, he sighed: "White Emperor City, Liu Bei's lonely place, thousands of years ago, Zhuge Wuhou was ordered here in danger, assisted the queen for several years, and left good stories and brilliant martial arts, I don't know if we can also follow the example of Wuhou and try our best to serve the emperor and achieve the century-old plan of Dashun." ”

Gao Yigong said proudly: "Of course, what the general said, although the emperor retreated south, it was just a temporary loss of power, I still have a million troops in Dashun, and I only need to recuperate for a while, when I can make a comeback, the Manchu Tartars are unpopular, and sooner or later I will be killed and expelled by my Han family, and the general doesn't have to worry about it." ”

He Zhen listened and echoed and said a few words, but his eyes flashed as he spoke, as if he was insincere, and seemed to be a little reluctant, just so that Li Guo and Gao Yigong focused on observing the river on both sides of the river and didn't care.

During the conversation between the three people, the fleet went down the river, crossed a section of the river, turned a big bend in the river, and saw in front of them that on the right side of the Yangtze River, there was a city built on the bank of the city, the city was antique, standing along the river, but there was no city wall, only a small wharf, built on the shore.

At the wharf, there are ten flat-bottomed cargo ships that are common on the Yangtze River, covered with tarpaulin, and the boats are almost against the water, apparently full of goods.

The dock is empty, there is nothing else, there is a high pole, a pair of white cloth fluttering on it, and there are several big characters embroidered on it: "The general soldier king of Kuizhou in Daming".

Under the high pole, there is a round table, a few chairs, a jar of wine and a few dishes on the table, a man in a white Confucian shirt and a square scarf on his head, is leisurely pouring himself a drink, very happy.

Thank you Xiao Fei and I want to go to Guilin for your support, thank you for your thanks, thank you for saying important things three times.
