112. Set sail
The three old children are willing to stay, Di Feng has no time to take care of them now, because on the sixth day after Zhang Xiaoguang returned to Ningzhou, the military order of Li Ji, the general manager of the Liaodong Provincial March, also arrived in Ningzhou, and the government soldiers from all over the country began to assemble in Yingzhou, and the grain transportation made Di Feng have to transport the grain and grass to Wuhu Town before it was frozen.
Fortunately, the two assembly sites in Yingzhou and Wuhu Town were exactly the same as Li Duozuo's analysis, and Ningzhou had already prepared to get the news, the school field ordered troops, the materials were on board, and everything was handled in an orderly manner without a trace of panic.
At the dock, Wu Dayou was dressed neatly and was about to get on the boat but was stopped by Di Feng, he looked at Di Feng puzzled, Di Feng smiled and said: "Don't look at Di Mourong today, but I want to make an exception to call you brother, Brother Wu!" You are old and young, unlike me who is waiting for you, so I decided not to take you with me when I went to Liaodong Di."
Wu Dayou was stunned when he heard this, he stretched out his hand and pointed at Tian Yangming, who was saying goodbye to Ah Duo, and was just about to argue, Di Feng said again: "You don't need to say more, Yang Ming is different from you, now Ah Duo is pregnant, and Yang Ming has several brothers, and you are the only son of the Wu family, and it is neither reasonable nor reasonable for you to follow the army when you are over forty years old, and as soon as I and Yang Ming leave, Ningzhou still needs someone to preside over the overall situation, this Ningzhou is where Yang Ming and you and I work hard, if there is a mistake, Di will ask you when he comes back, Brother Wu, this Ningzhou can be entrusted to you. ”
Wu Dayou understood in his heart that Di Feng was deliberately taking care of himself, and he was not hypocritical, so he gave Di Feng a deep salute and said: "Fujun rest assured, Wu will definitely be optimistic about Ningzhou, and Wu Mou will not thank Fujun for his friendship. ”
Here Wu Dayou's eyes were slightly red and he retreated to the side, and over there Tian Yangming waved goodbye to Ah Duo, nodded to Wu Dayou and went to the deck; Di Feng glanced up at Zhao Ling'er and Thirteen Niang in the crowd, didn't say hello, turned around and went on the deck.
The river breeze brought a trace of coolness, and Zhao Ling'er couldn't help crying. Thirteen Niang's heart was also sour, but she still explained on the side: "Sister, don't cry, don't you see that Di Lang is unwilling to say goodbye to us?" Thinking about it, he was also afraid of seeing his sister's tears, with Di Lang's skill and wit, he would not be in danger of going to Liaodong this time", although Thirteen Niang comforted this Zhao Ling'er in her mouth. But her heart was also full of worry, she had already sent someone to Liaodong quietly before Di Feng's departure, her idea was very simple, as long as Di Feng went, she would place her property and manpower there.
Zhao Ling'er also felt that it was not good to cry at this time, so she held back her tears and explained: "I'm not worried about Di Feng, I'm angry but ugly, why can I go with Di Feng, but I can't."
Thirteen Niang only noticed when she heard it. Di Feng was hiding behind a small soldier, and if you took a closer look, it was not ugly or which! It's just that the ugly child is petite, and she is tightly covered by Di Feng's tall figure, and it is difficult to find that she is following Di Feng closely if she does not pay attention to observation.
"This one who has no conscience, he won't say a word to me when he brings his ugly child, hum! Since the ugly child can go, my thirteenth mother can also get it! Thirteen Niang secretly blamed Di Feng in her heart, but said in her mouth: "Ningzhou's business is the foundation of Di Feng's life, and now I want my sister to take care of it." He brought Ugly Er to show that his sister's management ability is better than Ugly Child, so he left his sister to watch the family business. You must know that only the eldest woman of a wealthy family can be in charge of the family business! ”
Zhao Ling'er pondered that Thirteen Niang's words made sense, the wind and fire line in charge of Chou'er had never been able to intervene, and now Di Feng handed over the wind and fire line and the fleet to himself, doesn't it mean that he knows the overall situation better than Chou'er in Di Feng's heart? Thinking of this, Zhao Ling'er couldn't help but be happy, and she no longer cared about whether Di Feng would take her to Liaodong. Instead, he began to think about how to expand Di Feng's industry in Ningzhou.
Di Feng didn't know at this time that the Thirteen Niang on the shore had played a small trick to disconnect Zhao Ling'er and Chou'er's alliance, and he didn't know that Zhao Ling'er had already begun to plan how to take the opportunity to seize Chou'er's power; He stood on top of the building boat with his helmet and armor, and Jiang Zhongshi and Tian Yangming were also dressed in military uniforms, standing half a step behind Di Feng, and the three thousand soldiers were bright and neat and orderly on the five new-style sea falcon ships, and the ships, fighting ships, and yachts opened the way in front of them. The people who saw them off on the shore waved goodbye, which filled the river with a sense of parting and killing for a while.
The Ningzhou fleet, consisting of a building ship, five sea falcons, four ships, four fighting ships, and three yachts, set sail with a sound of a trumpet under the command of Jiang Zhongshi, and went straight down the Wujiang River through Fuzhou into the Yangtze River and went straight to Yangzhou.
Jiang Zhongshi no longer has the sloppy appearance of before, he stands on the top of the ship building with bright armor and steady look, with his command, the fleet spreads a formation on the open river, the yacht is like a scout in front of the road, the ships and fighting ships are escorted on the left and right, and the five sea falcons are guarding the building ship in the center and steadily.
Under the command of Jiang Zhongshi, the Ningzhou fleet took the opportunity to constantly change the formation to make the ships cooperate more smoothly with each other, and the sailors on board adjusted the winch crossbows, shooting rods and gun carriages according to the instructions to deal with the attacks of various imaginary enemies.
When the Ningzhou fleet with the banner of Di Zi appeared in the waters of Yangzhou, it was already half a month later, although the grain and grass requisitioned along the way were consumed, but still filled the cabin, and the grain and grass were collected enough, but with the approach to Liaodong Di Feng became worried, because according to the news he got Hong, Rao, Jiang three prefectures built 400 ships to carry military rations. Guo Beifeng is the chief of the navy to inspect the school and feed the envoy, and the control of grain transportation makes Dou Yiji, Dugu Qingyun and himself, according to Li Duozuo, this Guo Beifeng has a small amount of energy, and he is jealous of being jealous of the sage, and he has to think about how to deal with him.
Besides, Shi Fang Renyu, the governor of Yangzhou, heard the report from his subordinates, and a fleet appeared outside the Yangzhou wharf, and he hurriedly brought his subordinates to the wharf to watch, when he saw the Di Zi banner waving in the wind, needless to say that Fang Renyu also knew that Di Feng was coming.
Last time Zhang Xiaoguang came to Yangzhou to build the Caoyun team, Fang Renyu took the opportunity to write a book on a piece of paper, but he was praised by the sage, Caoyun's idea was Di Feng's idea, but the credit was robbed by himself, Fang Renyu felt a little guilty about Di Feng in addition to being satisfied.
He had long wanted to get acquainted with Di Feng and thank him in person, but now the opportunity was just right, Fang Renyu was busy with people, dispersed the idle boats on the dock, and prepared a banquet to welcome Di Feng's arrival.
Di Feng's fleet had many ships, and there was no way to dock all of the Yangzhou wharves, so Di Feng had no choice but to leave the fleet on the river, and he took Tian Yangming and others to take the fighting ship close to the Yangzhou wharf. (To be continued.) )
