Baling is the gateway to the east of Chang'an. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

To the north of Baling is the confluence of Weishui and its largest tributary, Jingshui.

Jingwei two waters, one clear and one turbid, clear water and turbid water flow the same river, but do not blend with each other, very peculiar. "Clearly", this so-called also.

The dividing line between Jingwei and Weishui is clear and long. A small boat, on the dividing line between the two rivers of Jingwei and Wei, went down the river.

The boat is more narrow and long than ordinary boats, and the water surface is sparkling and scaly, so it is difficult to detect the existence of a small boat without looking closely.

The two water currents are different, and there are many waves and whirlpools at the junction, so ordinary ships must be careful to avoid accidents.

And this small boat deliberately drove along the boundary line of the second water, and the speed was extremely fast, and it always rode on the boundary line of the second water, without the slightest deviation.

Such a boat requires not only great skill, but also extraordinary courage.

The boat was light and elegant, like a dancer on a tightrope. However, the image of the man who drove the boat was really not flattering, dark and thin, bean-eyed and mouse-bearded, obscene and trivial.

This is none other than Jiang Ping, the outpost captain of the Han Naval Army.

Jiang Pingjianghu people are called "river rats", take water as their home, and are more free and casual in the water than on land. This kind of narrow boat is the most difficult to control, but under Jiang Ping's control, the boat turns into a smart water snake, chasing the water along the waterline. Sometimes it rushes into the oncoming waves, sometimes it jumps out of the water, and the narrow bottom of the boat, like a knife edge, cuts the water surface like a flying speed.

The torrents made waves, and the river rats had a lot of fun, laughing and chirping, but they suffered from the little school Shi Ah on the same boat.

Shi Ah also belonged to the Han naval army, and he was on the boat, and he trained very hard. However, this kind of long and narrow boat is not much more bumpy and shaking than a large warship, and even the trained Shi A is also shaken to the ground and miserable.

Being able to stay on the ship is already a bit of a skill. If you were untrained, you would have been thrown off the ship a long time ago.

Shi Ah lay on the bow of the boat, to be precise, like mud, and collapsed on the bow of the boat.

The more embarrassed Shi A was, the happier Jiang Ping became, and asked knowingly, "Brother Shi, what's wrong?" Why don't you speak? ”

It's rare to endure and not vomit, and Shi Ah can still open his mouth to speak. With one hand clutching at the gang, the other struggling to swing back.

"Oh, Brother Shi thinks the ship is too slow and delays reporting to the lord, right? Okay, brother, I'll work harder! ”

Jiang Ping said, his wrist was slightly strengthened, and the boat suddenly accelerated, "swished", and flew out of the water!

"Vomit ......" Shi A couldn't hold back any longer, his mouth was open, colorful, and squirted out wildly.

"Chirp...... Jiang Ping smiled and leaned back, looking more and more obscene......

……

Tongguan west passes through the middle of the earth, and guards Weishui in the north.

When the war began, all land and water routes were under martial law. On the Weishui River near Tongguan, outside the Dahanshui military camp, all kinds of warships and warships are nervously training, making final preparations for the upcoming decisive battle.

Suddenly!

With a "bang", a whistle arrow rose from the enemy tower in Shuizhai to the sky! At the same time, a special flag of the navy was waved on the enemy's tower, pointing diagonally to the upstream direction of the west.

The warship in charge of the vigilance, hearing the warning of the whistle arrows, immediately spread its sails and oars and rushed upstream.

Jiang Pingshi's boat sailed as fast as flying.

Tossing all the way, Shi A felt that his body was about to fall apart, but he never let Jiang Ping slow down. He was ordered to go forward to reconnoiter the enemy's situation, and the information was transmitted back a moment earlier, and the decisive battle would have a better chance of victory.

The identity of the boat was unknown, and the navy guarded the boat on all sides, intending to intercept and investigate.

Seeing this, Shi Ah forcibly took out a colorful flag from his arms, put a bamboo pole on it, and inserted it in the bow of the boat.

"Colorful Flying Carp Flag!" The captain of the navy on the guard ship hurriedly waved the command flag, ordered the ships to be on alert, quickly give way to the waterway, and not to obstruct them, and ordered the ships concerned to accompany the escort. Flags were also unfurled, passed along the way, and the water and land departments were notified to prepare to pick up and drop off the messengers.

The naval army fights, with the flag as the order. All kinds of battle flags represent different military orders.

The flying carp flag raised by Shi A is a special flag for the outpost of the navy to transmit military intelligence. The colorful flying carp flag is the highest level flying carp flag, and the meaning it represents is similar to that on land, eight hundred miles of urgent transmission.

When this flag is seen, no troops are allowed to stop it, and they have the responsibility of escorting them along the way.

Jiang Pingshi's boat, without stopping for a moment, sailed straight to the outside of Tongguan City.

When the boat docked, Jiang Ping jumped onto the shore with a "whoosh", but Shi A couldn't even lift his legs, and completely became a puddle of mud.

The land garrison had already received news from the naval forces. A sturdy soldier got on the boat and carried Shi A ashore and threw him on horseback. Follow Jiang Ping, hurry up, and rush to see the lord Liu Mang.

……

Shi Ah walked all the way and vomited, his face was sallow, and his face was bloodless.

Although Shi A was exhausted, when he saw the lord Liu Mang, he still had to struggle to salute, and was hugged by Liu Mang.

"Sick?!" Liu Mang asked with concern.

Shi Ah was about to answer, but he couldn't help but retch again. Fortunately, his stomach had already been vomited, so he didn't spray Liu Mang.

"Seasickness, I've vomited all the way, chirp......" Jiang Ping smiled evilly and replied for Shi A.

Liu Mang is so keen, he knows that Jiang Ping is bad without asking. "You've done a good job, get the sugar water!"

Liu Mang took the sugar water and sent it to Shi A's mouth. "Drink slowly, don't drink too much yet, so as not to vomit."

The lord Liu Mang carefully advised, and also fed the water himself, where can Shi A be used. struggled to salute and confess, but was held down by Liu Mang. "Don't move, drink slowly."

It is said that the lord Liu Mang treats his subordinates like a brother, but Shi A never dreamed that he was a small colonel, one of the tens of thousands of colonels in the Han army, and he could be treated like this!

Shi A's eyes were full of tears, choked up, and slowly drank the sugar water......

……

"Lord, the enemy's main force is all dispatched!" Shi A, who drank the sugar water, was a little relieved, and he couldn't wait to report the enemy situation to Liu Mang.

"Yes, the Iron Cavalry and the Western Regions soldiers have all been dispatched! Tsk, it's so big! Jiang Ping added.

There was no change on Liu Mang's face, Du Ruhui beside him beckoned, and the guard hurriedly held two trays.

The tray was full of samples of military flags.

For the decisive battle of Yongliang, the Han army made full preparations, and the military flag samples in the tray represented a team of the Xiliang army. Scouts who are scouting, when they can't get close to scouting, just recognize the enemy's flag.

"This, this, and this!" Shi Ah pointed to the military flags one by one.

Next to him, Jiang Ping was also in another tray, pointing to the enemy flags he observed.

Let the two of them identify the military flag separately, not because they don't trust them, but to avoid misidentification and miscalculation.

When Jiang Ping Shi A reported, Liu Mang's expression was calm, there was no change, and he didn't even ask a word.

After the two finished reporting, Liu Mang smiled slightly. "The two brothers have worked hard, go down and rest."

The lord Liu Mang's attitude was calm, but Jiang Ping beat a drum in his heart.

Du Ruhui sent the two out, Jiang Ping couldn't help but ask in a low voice: "Mr. Du, there are many enemies, can we win this battle?" ”

Du Ruhui smiled and asked rhetorically, "What do you think?" ”

Shi Ah replied: "I will definitely win!" ”

Du Ruhui didn't know if it was okay. "Go get some sleep."

Du Ruhui turned around and entered the house, meeting Liu Mang's bright gaze.

Because of the excitement, Liu Mang's cheeks were slightly red, and he waved his hand decisively: "Draft military order!" ”
