Chapter 2 Shuangmei Walks the Rivers and Lakes

At the same time, on the mountainside, a young man in a long robe, holding a feather fan made of goose feathers, shook it gently. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Behind him was a maid holding a parasol for him, a long cyan dress, seemingly ordinary, almost impossible to remember, and it was easy for people to ignore her existence.

The young man looked condescendingly at the thousands of cavalry gathered in the distance, each of them strong and strong, holding a mace or a mace.

It is by no means an easy task for the officers and soldiers of the Great Zhou Dynasty, who have no civility, to rely on their own physical fitness to fight against these barbarians, or rather, with the morale of both sides at the moment, it is simply an impossible thing to do, in this month, these barbarian soldiers in the land north of the Huang River, basically like entering a no-man's land, even if it is ten times or twenty times the strength, they can easily penetrate and defeat them.

Although he had collected the officers and soldiers who had fled from the north, Ning Jiang's strength at this moment was by no means weaker than that of the other party, but he would never dare to try to compete with these barbarian cavalry in the wilderness.

The officers and soldiers he gathered had already been killed by the barbarians. Moreover, to tell the truth, in the past eight hundred years, the officers and soldiers of the Great Zhou Dynasty have long been accustomed to fighting by relying on the military strength cast by the literary spirit, these soldiers have a low status, and the military generals who lead them do not have much status in the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Although Ning Jiang didn't want to say this, this was proper, and it was really a system problem.

However, for Ning Jiang, since Emperor Wen's golden body was pierced by that mysterious golden sword, he had been preparing for this moment.

Ning Jiang calculated by himself, his original plan to keep Emperor Wen's golden body for at least three years and delay the barbarians' southward movement was a complete failure, and due to the unexpected change of the meteorite falling from the sky, this year's Taishan Fengzen was advanced, which made the barbarians go south earlier than in his previous life, making the time he had more hasty. And the early meeting between Baizijin and the Red Lady also made the rebellion of the Southwest Seventh Road break out a year earlier, so that the imperial court was forced to withdraw troops from the Central Plains, and it also caused the emptiness in the north to a certain extent, so that Xie Zhanlu and Mengyu could sweep to the Huanghe River so quickly.

Under these factors, the situation of the Great Zhou Dynasty can be said to be more sinister than in his previous life.

However, on the other hand, he originally planned to start rectifying the martial arts after Mount Tai sealed the Zen, but because of the "Yin Fu" given to him by Bai Zijin, he could leave Beijing in advance and enter the rivers and lakes, integrate the southeast martial arts, and double the number of grandmaster-level masters on the rivers and lakes through the Nine Yin True Scripture, and carried out various "chemical" experiments through the Zhengyi Sect and various Daomen in advance, which can be regarded as having his own "capital" one step earlier.

He looked down at the gorge and said that it was a gorge, but it was actually very wide, and it was entirely by relying on various temporary military buildings and horses that the cavalry on the opposite side could not directly rush through the horses. In addition, there are a large number of weapons called "fierce fire oil trucks".

The so-called fierce fire oil is actually oil, because of its "water pouring more prosperous" characteristics, in another world of the five dynasties and the Song Dynasty, has begun to be used on the battlefield, to the Northern Song Dynasty, but also invented the fire oil cabinet for arson on the battlefield, is to make the boiled copper cabinet, built-in fire oil, there are four copper pipes above, the pipe is horizontally placed with the "pump", by pulling the "pump", to the cabinet to apply air, spew flames, and the flame thrower of later generations, in fact, there is no essential difference.

At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, there was also a "fierce fire oil tank" that could be pushed on the battlefield, which was specially used to deal with the Mongolian cavalry, but unfortunately, in the later Qing Dynasty, whether it was gunpowder or fierce fire oil, its development process was interrupted, and later, it returned to pure cold weapons.

The fierce fire oil car designed by Ning Jiang is actually the improved fierce fire oil tank, using the nine-rate sect of the rivers and lakes that is good at feng shui and Kanyu, to find the fierce fire oil and secretly cast a large number of fierce fire oil tanks, because of the peculiar structure, those blacksmiths and casters who cast the fierce fire oil tanks, etc., actually don't know what they are building, anyway, the alliance leader has money, and it is easy to do things with money.

At this moment, he brought many martial arts people, including Xiao Zhang, Chen Tianya, Wu Yude and other masters with grandmaster-level strength, with the strong soldiers in the gathered generals, on the way for these barbarians to march eastward, with horses, fierce fire and oil carts to form a military formation, so that the strong as a wood is not lonely, and they dare not attack easily.

And those weak soldiers who are not of much use, under the protection of the formation, quickly build military buildings.

"Master," said the maid behind the young man, holding a parasol for him, blocking the scorching sun of the Dragon Boat Festival, "There is news from the south that the two girls, Xiaomeng and Jianli, are on their way to escort a new batch of cement, and they will arrive soon." ”

……

"Weiyuan...... Flappy ......"

At the foot of the mountain in the distance, a long dart cart winds around the mountain road.

At the front of the convoy, there were two charming girls, one of them was Chun Jianli, and the other was Ning Xiaomeng.

At this moment, the spring paper is no longer red. The peaks are wrapped in a peak-shaped red bandeau top, a white translucent light mid-top, a light purple placket and half arms on the outside, and a pleated skirt of the same color as the bandeau on the lower body. The lower end of the placket is in a "V" shape, and the wide belt that binds the small waist is more prominent, which further highlights the slender and charming figure.

The rest of the hair bundles should have been divided into two bundles and placed on the left and right shoulders, that is, "Split Xiao", commonly known as "swallowtail", but she is playful, only forming a bunch, on the left shoulder, making excuses that it will not affect the action of drawing the sword with the right hand, but it is also cute.

Ning Xiaomeng is an autumn-colored willow silk moire corset skirt, with a lily bun on her head, a butterfly hanging on her waist, a lotus-colored gold-rimmed cardigan, the sword is slanted on her back, revealing the hilt and sword spike from her right shoulder, combing her head with a bun around the mustache, and inserting a beautiful hairpin.

On her lap, there was another strange little black cat, which turned its head from time to time to look.

Purple clothes and red clothes of the spring note, idle, hands like a horn in front of the mouth, began to shout darts, her voice is pleasant, like a yellow bird, this shout, the beautiful sound echoes in the valley, like the sound of heaven.

Behind them, the men who escorted the carriage looked at each other and smiled, this trip to escort the goods, just following the two girls on the road, listening to their voices along the way, it felt that the trip was worthwhile.

The convoy was very long, and every car was quite heavy. Bags and packets of gray powder occasionally spilled out of the car, and I don't know what it was.

Chun Jianli turned her head to look at it, these things called cement were all made in a valley in the Qinling Mountains, using a large amount of lime excavated to build a furnace to bake, originally, Ning Jiang just said to give it a try, and it didn't seem to be too expected to succeed, saying that the heat was not easy to master, but then invited someone from the Cui family to help, but it was also unexpectedly simple.

The fire is nothing to the Cui family, who has a large number of alchemy and pharmaceuticals all year round, and the Taoist talisman technique has once again come in handy at this time, reinforcing the brick kiln, mobilizing the heat, regulating the fire, and quickly completing what he wants.

Originally, Chun Jianli didn't know why Ning Jiang wanted to make these things, but these days, when she saw this thing called cement and used it in fortifications, she understood the efficiency it brings. It greatly shortens the manpower and time, especially for the stones in the construction site, and no longer needs to waste a lot of manpower and material resources to select, chisel and polish, which can be said to be a miracle.

"Your brother is really good, as if he can do anything." She sighed.

"He's my brother!" Xiaomeng said diligently.

"Meow!" The kitten on her lap also barked.

At that moment, there was a sharp whistle ahead, followed by a "grab", and an arrow was stuck in the tree in front of them. Chun Jianli quickly stood up, raised her hand, and the convoy stopped one after another. Immediately afterwards, a group of people rushed out of the mountainside, led by a big man holding a Xuanhua axe, and shouted at them: "I opened this mountain, I planted this tree, I want to pass by here, leave to buy road wealth!" ”

Rob? The two girls looked at each other.

Chun Jianli took out a short bow and sneered: "Where did the hairy thief who doesn't have long eyes come from and robbed his aunt and grandmother?" ”

The leader shouted: "You guys who don't know the way, ran to your uncle's territory, and refused to even give you money to buy roads, and you still want to pass like this?" The little ones, I robbed them, these two girls who are smart and smart, just brought back to the mountain to be the lady of the village. ”

Chun Jianli and Ning Xiaomeng had black faces, since they started walking the rivers and lakes, there were not a few thieves they encountered on the road, why did each of them want to take them back to the mountain to be the lady of the village?

Ning Xiaomeng hugged the knife to his shoulder and stood up as well: "Hmph, I'll just look at them, and I can still leave a few heads." ”

The robbers were furious...... Do you dare to run rampant when you break the rules of the rivers and lakes?

But it turned out that all the darts darts in the dart bureau are usually on the road to the pass, first explore the mountain, find a good way, present the gift silver, and then when the dart is walking, shout the dart number, the heroes on the cottage heard that this family was a gift, and naturally let them go. And Chun Jianli and Ning Xiaomeng were not dart masters in the first place, and they disguised themselves as darts to walk the darts, just for the convenience of the road and to avoid attracting attention, so naturally they didn't know so much, and they didn't know that there were cottages nearby.

Shicai Chun Jianli out of fun, shouted the dart, in fact, if they don't say anything, it's over, these people may not pay attention to them, the dart shouted, these people listened, this dart has not heard at all. If you give a gift of silver, shout a dart when you pass by, breathe, forget it, dare to shout a dart without giving a gift, this is simply a mockery, shouting: "Come and rob me, come and rob me, not a puppy!" ”

How can people endure this?

Since the dart cart is stopped, it is inevitable to say some cruel words, in fact, if the other party softens down and accompanies some good words, it is not impossible to talk. The so-called harmony makes money, those who dart on the road, ask for peace, they go down the mountain to rob goods, in order to be just silver taels, to negotiate, may not be able to sell personal favors. But they didn't expect that they were ruthless, the other party's posture was even more ruthless than them, living so big, they had never seen such a dart, it was really unbearable for uncle and sister-in-law.

"Two stinky girls, it seems that they are really looking for death!" As soon as the big Han Xuanhua raised the big axe, he was going to lead the men and horses to kill him.

Behind the convoy, the others couldn't help it...... This doesn't fit the routine, huh? One of them hurriedly rushed up: "Slowly, slowly, this hero, I can't hide it, we are not a real dart, we are actually entrusted by the Daomen to transport materials and support the brother of the Lord of the Ning League, I don't know that there are heroes gathered here, and I failed to say hello in advance, and I ask for forgiveness." ”

The big man was suddenly moved: "The Ning League Lord you are talking about, isn't it the Southeast Martial Arts Alliance Lord and Ning Hanlin of Ningjiang who is leading people to fight against those barbarians in Quarry Gorge?" ”

The man said, "It's Ning Hanlin." ”

The big man and the robbers beside him looked at each other, and then the robbers put away their weapons. The big man hugged his fists and said, "It turned out that we went to help Ning Hanlin's brother, but we were reckless." Ning Hanlin once said that the world is the world of the people of the world, and the rivers and lakes are the rivers and lakes of the people of the rivers and lakes. Now that the barbarians have invaded, the lives are devastated, and we are also planning to clean up, so I will take the brothers in the village to go to Ning Hanlin to fight against the foreign barbarians. ”

The man said: "Thank you for your kindness, it is really this batch of materials, Ning Hanlin is in a hurry to use them, and I will not be allowed to delay." He took out a silver bag from his sleeve: "I accidentally disturbed all the heroes, and I didn't want to go, so I invited the heroes and the brothers to drink a drink......

The big man said in a daze: "Just now we didn't know that you were the Ning League Lord's people, so forget it, now that we know that the Ning League Lord is now blocking those barbarians who killed my Huaxia compatriots in front, how can we scrape him behind his back?" Please take it back! Then he pointed to the girl in the willow silk moire corset skirt on the car, and shouted: "But this girl, who doesn't know any etiquette, passed by our territory, and as soon as she opened her mouth, she said that she wanted to see how many heads we could leave behind...... Hmph, such an arrogant little girl, for the sake of the Ning Alliance Lord's face today, let you go, and have the ability to report your name......"

The girl in the corset skirt snorted: "This girl Ning Xiaomeng, I'm afraid you won't make it?" ”

The big man's face changed slightly: "Isn't it Ning Xiaomeng, the beheading witch?" The robbers also took a step back in unison.

Xiaomeng held the sword: "What's wrong?" ”

The others swiped and looked at the big man. The big man hurriedly followed everyone and took a step back, touched the back of his neck, and said under the girl's tiger-like gaze: "No...... It's okay...... Just ask. ”

Everyone: "......" (To be continued.) )
