Chapter 63 Painting the cake is completed
“…… Lu Servant, those five new ships like the Seahorse are really ready to be handed over to me for use? ”
Lu Ren said with a smile: "The words have been spoken, how can there be any reason to regret it?" But Brother Xingba, let's talk about the ugly things in the front, before you officially set sail, I will give you three months to familiarize you with the affairs of Hainan Airlines in the coastal area of Yizhou Town. And until you're familiar with it, don't set sail lightly...... Things on the sea are far from being as simple as inland rivers. And within three months, are you sure that you will be able to control these seagoing vessels freely? ”
"Three months is enough!"
Gan Ning is not talking big. It can be said that he has always been the master of mixing rice on the water, and I believe that it will not be too difficult to get familiar with the affairs of Hainan Airlines. Of course, it's still a bit too early to make a real voyage at sea, but I don't think there will be much of a problem with an offshore voyage in the near future.
Lu Ren also knows this, to be honest, the three-month internship period and the run-in period are about the same, and if it really doesn't work, Lu Ren will find an excuse to let Gan Ning and his gang practice more. And now that he has negotiated the first link with Gan Ning, Lu Ren has also begun to throw out the second link:
"Brother Xingba, it's a hard injury that we have too few people in Yizhou right now. And if I don't find a way to solve this problem, if I want to achieve something in the future, it will only be empty words. Now that you're here, after you get acquainted with HNA, I have something I want to ask Brother Xingba to do. ”
Gan Ning said: "Lu Servant shoots but it doesn't hurt to say, you should do your best!" ”
Lu Ren went to take out a map and spread it on the table, pointed to the coastal places on the north bank of the Yangtze River, and said, "I want to ask Brother Xingba to lead the fleet to go to these places to plunder the population and send it back to Yizhou to fill my Yizhou household registration." ”
Gan Ning froze on the spot: "What ...... this?"
Lu Ren was also a little embarrassed when he saw Gan Ning's reaction: "Isn't it too embarrassing to Xingba's brother?" I know that Brother Xingba has sworn that he will no longer be a thief, and he will go to these places to take the people captive, and this move is no different from being a thief......"
Gan Ning hurriedly waved his hand and said, "No, no, no, Ning is not embarrassed about this matter." In fact, the abduction of people to fill the household registration is such a thing, even if all parties are not the same, often do it? Lu Servant shoots you to do so. Gan has a feeling that he is already a general...... Hahaha, what are you talking about? What I want to say next...... Almost all of the places you are referring to are Yuan Realm, and when the time comes, you will lead the fleet to go over and plunder the population, can this be done? ”
Before Lu Ren could explain, Xu Shu, who was on the side, smiled thoughtfully and continued: "Brother Xingba, don't worry, this matter is at the right time, so it can definitely be done." When the elder brother thinks so long-term, the foolish brother is convinced! ”
Xu Shu is a person who wants to achieve a career, and he naturally pays attention to all aspects of intelligence in normal times, and now the war in Hebei is in full swing. Of course, Xu Shu will pay more attention to the news from Hebei, and at the same time, he will also make corresponding analysis. Seeing that Gan Ning was still a little puzzled at this moment, Xu Shu explained to Gan Ning: "As far as the situation in Hebei is concerned, Cao Yuan will continue to fight each other. According to what the elder brother said before, when Cao concealed the temporary truce, the three sons of the Yuan family would continue to fight each other. They are fighting back and forth, and where can they take care of these relatively barren areas along the coast? As far as the art of war is concerned, the elder brother is also avoiding the real and making up for the false. As far as the general trend is concerned, the elder brother is also showing favor to Cao in order to obtain the edict in the future. ”
Lu Ren nodded: "That's what I meant." Yuan Benchu died. If his three sons work together, they may be able to resist Lao Cao, but it's a pity...... Forget it, no more nonsense. Anyway, according to my plan. It will take about three to four years for Lao Cao to settle all parts of Hebei, and the first person to take it must be Yecheng in Jizhou, and he will not be too anxious about the coastal areas. We should take advantage of this time to take more people from the green, secluded, and various states. Otherwise, you will offend Lao Cao when you turn around. The Yuan clan is already declining, so it doesn't matter if we mess with them, but Lao Cao ...... there" shook his head and didn't say more.
Xu Shu continued: "If it is a captive population. You can fill the Yizhou household registration. And the people in Yizhou are becoming more and more prosperous, and they will have the foundation to be able to achieve something in the future. ”
Gan Ning looked at the picture carefully and thought about it for a while, and then slapped the table hard: "That's very good!" It's just that after the borders of Hebei can no longer be plundered, where should they go? ”
Lu Ren smiled, flipped out the lower part of the map that had been folded in half, and said, "Brother Xingba, don't worry, there is a place for you to grab ...... Oh, I mean it's for you to play. You see, there is also Liaodong Lelang here. The Gongsun clan has tens of thousands of troops in Liaodong, and where tens of thousands of soldiers can be raised, the population will not be small. In addition, a little further east, there is the land of Samhan; A little further east, there is still the Evil Horse Terrace. These are the places where it can be colder in autumn and winter. If Brother Xingba doesn't want to go to these very cold places in the autumn and winter season, there are Brunei and Luzon Islands in the south. If you don't want to run that far, isn't there still Jiaozhou? However, there are scholars in Jiaozhou, and the population may not be so easy to plunder. ”
This is the first time Gan Ning has seen the whole map of Southeast Asia, and he was dumbfounded for a while: "There are so many places to go!" ”
Lu Ren spread his hands and said helplessly: "There are naturally many places to go, but the main problem is that we don't have many people to cultivate." Therefore, the strategy I set at the beginning was to take Yizhou as the foundation first, not to forcibly compete with the heroes, and at the same time gather people from all over the world, and then scatter the land when the foundation of Yizhou gradually solidifies. ”
The ambition in Gan Ning's heart has been completely hooked, and there is even a picture of how he pilots the majestic sea ship to ride the wind and waves in his mind, so at this time, he nodded to Lu Ren again and again.
Xu Shu couldn't sit still at this time, and couldn't help but ask Lu Ren: "Brother doesn't want to use the foolish brother?" ”
Lu Ren smiled: "Of course there is, I'm afraid that Yuan Zhi and Guangyuan don't want to go." ”
Saying that, Lu Ren pointed to Sanya in Zhuya: "I left this land to you." The brother wanted Guangyuan to sit in Sanya, and Yuan Zhi led another fleet to Jiaozhou and Annan of Shijia to plunder the population. I'm afraid you two won't go. ”
Zhuya is also the Hainan Island of later generations, and the place is not small, so Xu Shu and Shi Tao's eyes immediately lit up. And Lu Ren's words are very clear, this is to go to Jiaozhou Shijia to grab the population, and the battle will definitely not be less, which is exactly what Xu Shu wants. Not to mention Xu Shu, even Gan Ning is a little eager to try.
And Lu Ren looked at the excited expressions in his heart when the three people in front of him pressed themselves, and poured out some cold water at the right time: "It's just that if we can't work together and act carefully, these can only be painting cakes to satisfy hunger, and the three of them should also know it, right?" ”
The three of them looked at each other and nodded yes in unison. In fact, if Lu Ren didn't behave carefully, they would think that Lu Ren was talking exaggerated and untrustworthy.
The cake has been drawn enough and big enough, and Lu Ren promptly brought the topic back to the problem at hand. After all, if the current matter is not dealt with, then the next trouble will be big.
“…… You've got all the people you sent out, right? It's almost time to get them moving. ”
The so-called action was to spread the news that the Shanyue tribes were about to move in Sun Wu's territory, so as to try to stop the Sun Wu group's attack on Jiangxia in the eighth year of Jian'an, which Lu Ren also found an opportunity to reveal in his previous meeting with Zhou Yu. However, it is up to people to succeed in heaven, whether they can really be stopped, Lu Ren has no bottom in his heart.
However, whether it was stopped or not stopped did not have a great impact on Lu Ren, mainly because it would be greatly affected in terms of return time. And Lu Ren now has to stay in Chaisangdo for a while because of Zhou Yu's tricks, so it doesn't matter if the return time is late. The main reason is that Lu Ren wants to go back and pick up the Zhen clan people on the boat, but if Sun Wu and Liu Biao have a fight at this time, this person will not be easy to pick up.
Looking at Xu Shu again, he nodded to Lu Ren, indicating that the manpower he arranged was fine. After a little hesitation, Xu Shu asked, "Brother, then another rumor, is it also going to start spreading?" ”
Lu Ren hurriedly shook his head: "Don't!" I haven't even gotten a word about it, and if I start spreading rumors now, anyone can see that the trick is false. If Zhou Yu had taken a little more precautions about this, I would have to throw away the Yangtze River water transportation trade route that had been opened up with great difficulty. Yizhou is short of everything right now, and I'm still counting on this Yangtze River waterway to buy what I need. That's it, let's get here today, you all go and prepare your own affairs, I have to go to Zhou Yu's house tomorrow to teach people to play music. ”
Xu Shu and the three of them each glanced at each other, and they all had very sinister smiles on their faces......
――――――――――――――――――――
In the blink of an eye, days have passed.
Half of the fleet led by Mi Zhen had already set sail and took Gan Ning to Haichang to deliver food to Lu Xun. And Lu Ren ran to Zhou Yu's house every day in the past few days, teaching Xiao Qiao one song after another. As for Zhou Yu...... Zhou Yu is the commander of the upstream area of the Sun Wu Group, and it is common for him to not be able to return home for many days as soon as there is something in the army, so in the past few days, Lu Ren has not even been able to meet Zhou Yu, but Lu Ren originally didn't want to meet Zhou Yu.
When it comes to teaching Xiao Qiao music, Lu Ren is not flustered at all. As a time-traveler who likes music, the number of pieces of music that Lu Ren knows in his mind is definitely terrifying compared to ancient people like Zhou Yu and Xiao Qiao. Speaking of the music fight that day, didn't Lu Ren suppress Zhou Yu and Xiao Qiao with an absolute number?
The most important thing is that Lu Ren is teaching Xiao Qiao now, but it's not just as simple as playing it for Xiao Qiao a few times and finishing it. Not only should I play it for Xiao Qiao, but I also have to let Xiao Qiao record the score and try to play. With the conditions at that time, it was already very good to be able to teach a piece of music in one day, and no matter how much Lu Ren played a little trick, it would be difficult for poor Xiao Qiao MM not to fall into the set!
So on this day, Xiao Qiao MM finally felt that it was too troublesome to hang the curtain, so he removed the curtain and communicated with Lu Ren face-to-face about music. And this is a very crucial step for Lu Ren...... (To be continued.) )
PS: (It's almost the New Year, and there are a lot of messy things here in the bottle, everyone understands it.) I took a break yesterday, forgive me! )
