It took a lot of effort to reluctantly reach a face-to-face reconciliation with the Zhen family, in exchange for the ending of Zhen Jian being soft and Zhen Jiang entering the court, which should have been regarded as a "victory" no matter how you say it.

But somehow, as long as Qin Xu thought of Zhen Jiang looking at him, it didn't look like anger or shame, but with a bit of ridicule and "pride"? , It's like she's benefiting this time.,In short, I can't see the meaning of the eyes.,I can't be happy.,I always feel like I'm being remembered.。

Qin Xu had no doubt that even if it was Zhen Jiang, he would be able to immediately become a gentle and graceful family, and Qin Xu would not dare to be careless.

But fortunately, the relationship between the father and daughter of the Zhen family is extremely worrying at the moment, thanks to the slap under the anger of the old Zhen head, it can be regarded as temporarily attracting Zhen Jiang's firepower for Qin Xu.

This time, the place where Qin Xu's army camped was in the south of the big river, in fact, strictly speaking, it can already be regarded as the border of the plain, but there are only a dozen miles of big river separated by a wide place that divides the north and south of the plain.

Zhang Liao said that he was stationed in the Plains Country, but in fact, he was stationed more on the north bank. First, it is to prevent people from Qinghe County and Bohai County, which are bordering it, from coming to make trouble, and secondly, it can be regarded as planting a nail in the land of Hebei in advance. I just didn't expect it to be enabled so soon.

If you want to cross the river, you naturally need a boat. Since yesterday, Qin Xu has sent soldiers to the villages within a radius of 20 miles along the coast to collect boats, and ordered the deputy commander of the camp to take the lead in crossing the river to contact Zhang Liao about meeting the division. He was born in Hebei and has been staying in the first camp. And before he went to the camp first, he was really regarded as a pro-army by Yuan Shao.

After some conversation with the Zhen family's father and daughter, it was almost noon, but Cheng Lian, who had been out for nearly two hours, came to report the number of ships. said that it was even leased and loaned, and under the condition that Qin Xu forcibly ordered not to disturb the people, nearly 100 ships have been collected. Seeing Cheng Lian's look of asking for merit, if he hadn't been able to beat him, Qin Xu still had the idea of wanting to follow and kick his feet.

Sure enough, just now I said that something extraordinary must be a demon, and Cheng Lian really did the errand out of a moth. This time, Qin Xu, who didn't wait for Qin Xu, who heard this "good news", was happy for a moment. I heard Cheng Lian change to a sneering face and then explained, but it's a pity that it's because it's just the beginning of summer. The big river has just been relieved of the summer flood, and because of the great drought last year, the amount of water this year is quite large, and the water flow is also very turbulent. Most of the small boats collected were fishing boats from the vicinity. Under such storms, it is not enough to carry people, let alone a base of 7,000 horses!

And those that can barely be counted as big ships are actually just larger in size and slightly stronger, and they can carry more than 20 people is already the maximum, and no matter how many ships they have, they will capsize! That's it. There are only a dozen of them. According to the actual capacity, Qin's 6,000 soldiers would have to cross the river. Nearly 30 trips!

Thirty trips?! What about playing people, right? Don't talk about delaying time, you can't let the Zhen family laugh to death? For a while, Qin Xu almost had the urge to throw Cheng Lian into the river.

Cheng Lian is a fool in the army, and he even dares to make jokes about Lu Bu, but it can be said that after being ruthlessly rectified a few times because of a bet with Qin Xu, the most feared thing is Qin Xu, who can put a few at hand. Seeing that Qin Xu had a tendency to turn his face, Cheng Lian, who had no good way for a while, simply found a bad excuse to prepare for military affairs, and smeared oil on the soles of his feet and slipped away.

In fact, Qin Xu also knew that it was really no wonder that Cheng Lian was able to collect so many fishing boats from the neighborhood in one morning, and it was indeed difficult for him to let Lao Cheng think about crossing the river quickly in a short period of time. It seems that the best way at present is to wait for the recruitment to smoothly contact Zhang Liao, and send large river ships from the opposite bank to transport troops back and forth; But in this way, I don't know how long it will drag on, not only will it expose its whereabouts faster, but it will also alert Cao Cao's army, which has already crossed the river and has been camped at the junction of Jizhou and Bingzhou, before creating the established facts, it is almost conceivable that Lao Cao has too many tricks to make Qin's army of only 6,000 people unhappy.

"Qin envoy Jun is worried about crossing the river?" Qin Xu, who was standing by the river even though he had two lives, was worried about this matter, and it was illegal to inquire about several fishermen from nearby villages, and he was about to send someone to contact the other side of the river again to urge Zhang Liao to transfer a boat to cross the river as soon as possible, when the voice of Zhen Jiang, the second miss Zhen Jiang, sounded from behind him with a faint coldness.

"Could it be that Miss Zhen has a way to teach Qin?" Listening to Zhen Jiang's words, it seemed that there was a way to cross the river, and when Qin Xu looked back, he saw Zhen Jiang who was accompanied by Lu Lingqi in military uniform, step by, the big river breeze blew Zhen Jiang's long black hair that had never been tied, and the loose robe skirt was tightly attached to the concave and convex figure, outlining a beautiful curve.

"Heh, Qin Envoy Jun, who is full of wisdom and wisdom, turns out that he is not omnipotent!" Zhen Jiang, who clearly said that he had the intention of ending the war with Qin, regained the poisonous tongue he had when he first met, and his eyes that were not very bright also increased a little more energetically, and he walked to Qin Xu's side with Lu Lingqi, covered his mouth with long sleeves, and said.

"Manpower is sometimes poor! Qin is not an immortal in the world, and in the face of the power of this big river, it is inevitable that there is nothing to be done, but it made Miss Zhen see the joke! Stopping Lu Lingqi who wanted to speak with his eyes, Qin Xu smiled and laughed at himself and said: "But Miss Zhen should also know that this trip to Jizhou is actually not the benefit of my Qingzhou family, if you can reach Yecheng one point faster, it will not be half a bad thing for the Zhen family who has been informed by the Yuan family to come to Qingzhou, right?" ”

"Humph! I don't know how bold Qin Envoy Jun is? Touched a nail that was neither soft nor hard from Qin Xu, which made Zhen Jiang, who was thinking of seeing Qin Xu's helpless jokes, feel quite bored, and looked up and down at Qin Xu, who was a little inexplicable by Zhen Jiang's gaze, Zhen Jiang's beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, and asked.

"Guts? I don't know what is the necessary relationship between Miss Zhen's plan to cross the river and Qin's courage? Seeing that Zhen Jiang really didn't look like he was deliberately trying to find fault, and that time was indeed pressing right now, Qin Xu didn't have the idea of arguing with Zhen Jiang and asked.

"Of course it is!" Seeing Qin Xu's frowning appearance, a smile finally appeared on Zhen Jiang's pretty face. Standing side by side with Qin Xu two steps forward, he pointed to the direction of the upper reaches of the river in the northwest, and said, "I really don't know how Qin Envoy Jun chose this place as the place to cross the river. You must know that this is the last bend of the nine meanders of the great river. There is no ice in winter, there is no wind and there are three feet of waves, not to mention that it has just entered the summer flood, and there is a lot of water this year, no matter how big the sturdy fishing boat, it only dares to work by the river, and it is strange to be able to carry people to the river. And from there, go along the west of the river to a place of a hundred miles. That is, at the junction of Pingyuan County, Jizhou Qinghe County and Yanzhou East County, the water potential is quite gentle, not to mention fishing boats. You can even hang a few gourds on your body to wade through. However, such a dangerous and weak important place must be heavily guarded in the future, and how to choose depends on the courage of Qin Envoy. ”

"Is there this?" Qin Xu didn't know much about the twists and turns of the Yellow River, but even if he did. For 1,800 years. The Yellow River didn't know how many times it had been diverted, so he didn't think about it in this direction, and at this moment, listening to the ridicule of Zhen Jiang, the "native of the Han Dynasty", made Qin Xu's heart flutter. I have to say that the place Zhen Jiang chose this time is still unknown whether he can cross the river quickly, but in terms of this geographical environment, it is indeed a place where soldiers must fight. Zhen Jiang is right. The Yuan clan and the Cao clan will inevitably choose heavy troops to guard here, so the same is true. As the general of this army, Zhang Liao will inevitably be stationed here. Thinking about it this way, if it is indeed a bit risky to cross the river here, in fact, if the march is faster, as long as the other two can quickly march into the sphere of influence of Zhang Liaoxiao's cavalry camp before they can react, the danger factor is actually not as great as imagined.

"There will be at least several times the current strength of Cao and Yuan's soldiers there! Did Qin Envoy really have the courage to forcibly cross the river under the watchful eye of the two armies? Seeing that Qin Xu knew that this was such a situation, he actually looked moved, but it was beyond Zhen Jiang's expectations, he quietly pursed his lips, and immediately dispelled the idea of wanting to tell Qin Xu about another relatively stable place, and said in a hypocritical manner.

"Heh, I don't know that the two tigers in Miss Zhen's mouth are Cao Jun who has been defeated by our army several times? Or was it the Yuan army, who was intimidated by the lord, who did not dare to take a few steps lightly, despite having a tenfold advantage in troops? Although I don't know why Zhen Jiang agreed to reconcile so happily and maintain the cooperative relationship between the two families before, Qin Xu did not immediately regard the Zhen family as a confidant of the "consciousness", at this moment after listening to Zhen Jiang's words, Qin Xu felt that it was also necessary for the Zhen family to see what a real strong army is. Seeing that Zhen Jiang was thoughtful by what he said, Qin Xu didn't want to think about Zhen Jiang's reaction when he heard these words, so he turned around and said: "Come on, tell General Cheng Lian, order him to order someone to quickly cross the river to contact the general, inform General Zhang Wenyuan of this military to prepare early, and at the same time order the army, add food at noon, feed the horses with forage, and start in two moments, the target is a hundred miles west of here, and the whole army must arrive before sunset!" ”

"No!" The herald who was summoned by Qin Xu took the order in a deep voice, leaving only Zhen Jiang, who looked at Qin Xu with a somewhat shocked face, and shook his head in disbelief.

Zhen Jiang didn't mean anything else this time, he just thought Qin Xu was joking? That's more than 100 miles! Before sunset? Even if the sky is getting longer now, the sunset is around Shen time, that is to say, it is only one and a half hours at most. Even if both the flying cavalry battalion and the first battalion are cavalry, such a long-distance forced march is not tired of people and horses! And if the Cao clan or the Yuan clan's troops detect their intentions at that time, they will inevitably make some moves, and they can meet the elite tired soldiers of the Lu Bu army sent to the door with such an "easy", Zhen Jiang will not think that they will still care about the allies of Lao Shizi! If this is the case, then Qin Xu, a tired army, will be able to pick up a knife to meet the enemy at that time, let alone cross the river as Qin Xu said. Thinking of this, Zhen Jiang subconsciously wanted to open his mouth to stop Qin Xu's order, but before the words were spoken, he heard that Qin Xu had already given a military order to the herald soldier. Zhen Jiang has also spent the past few days in the barracks, and he understands what it means to be a mountain of military orders. Knowing that as long as the commander in the army issued a formal order like Qin Xu, there was absolutely no possibility of changing it easily before he was fully sure of the veto of the previous decision. And just after hearing Qin Xu's extremely "conceited" and slightly sarcastic words, Zhen Jiang, who was blocked from talking, could only look at Qin's back and stomp his feet angrily, causing Lu Lingqi, who was simple-hearted, to laugh coquettishly.

According to Zhen Jiang's "guidance", he went west. Qin Xu's army really let everyone in the Zhen family see why Lu Bujun didn't dare to provoke others easily. Sure enough, just as Qin Xu requested, the cavalry of 6,000 people was more than 100 miles away. It only took a little more than an hour to arrive. This is still with baggage and more than 100 fishing boats! Except for the horses galloping all the way and occasionally snorting slightly tiredly, almost none of the soldiers in the two battalions were tired, and they almost collapsed on the ground and couldn't get up. Seeing the undisguised contempt in the eyes of the soldiers of the two battalions of Xiandeng and Feicai, not only did Zhen Jiang look ashamed, but even Zhen Jian, the head of the Zhen family who was about to fall apart, almost crooked his nose in anger. Isn't this a bully?

"General Qin! I'm waiting for a quick ride. It did not attract the attention of the generals of the two sides here, except for more than a dozen ...... cough cough, more than ten Zhen family members. When the whole system arrived at the destination, the baggage was not abandoned, the fishing boat was not lost, and our old man had sent soldiers to explore the water situation. The waterways here are wide. It is true that the water is gentle, when to cross the river, please ask General Qin to show it! I don't know if Cheng Lian deliberately wanted to disgust and disgust the Zhen family, after placing the soldiers on guard, Cheng Lian almost shouted and reported to Qin Xu from afar.

"General Cheng is hard! The soldiers are fast, you also said that we are right now under the noses of the two armies, and the goal of 6,000 people is really too big, and we can't hide it for a long time. Let the brothers of the two battalions seize the time to rest for a while, and tie the horses and baggage to the fishing boats. After all the brothers of the Zhen family returned to the building, they crossed the river on foot! Since Zhen Jian, the head of the Zhen family, has already had the intention of being soft, although Qin Xu doesn't like this old Zhen very much, he still has to do a lot of work on face, and he regarded the time prepared by the soldiers as a "favor" waiting for the unlucky ghosts of the Zhen family, and in exchange for the expected Zhen Jiang's coquettish snort.

Six thousand people spread out and occupied an area the size of two football fields, and to be honest, the target was too big. Qin Xu didn't dare to guarantee that Cao Jun, who had not noticed it one moment, and Yuan Jun, who was on the other side, would not notice it the next moment. Therefore, although Qin Xu said it lightly, and he was still in the mood to make a "joke" about everyone in the Zhen family, he was actually very nervous in his heart. Lu Lingqi came to her side with an iron halberd, gently held Qin's hand, and also touched the sweat on her hand.

"Zhong Ming, are you worried that Cao Jun or Yuan Jun will come and attack?" Instead of shaking Qin Xu's sweat-stained hand away, Lu Lingqi shook it tightly and asked in a low voice.

"Huh? What the? "If it was someone else, hearing such an analysis from Lu Lingqi's mouth really impressed Qin Xu. Hasn't Miss Lu always been deeply influenced by Lu Bu, believing in the kind of heroism that although thousands of people have been fighting on the battlefield, why does Miss Lu, who doesn't read much military books on weekdays, also know this allusion? However, Qin Xu, who was a little stunned, still smiled and waved Lu Lingqi's sweat-stained little hand, wiped two handfuls on the hem of his clothes very gracelessly, and held Lu Lingqi's small hand with his backhand, and said with a smile: "Madame is really a little worm in her husband's abdomen!" You can even guess that. If my mother-in-law found out, I don't know how happy she would be. ”

"Really?" Being praised by Qin Xu made Lu Lingqi's eyes light up, but then it dimmed again, and she pouted and said, "Okay!" All right! People tell the truth! In fact, this is what I heard when my sister Zhen was talking to herself just now! However, I also think that our 6,000 people are coming so mightily, how can we not alarm Cao Jun and Yuan Jun's Tanma, there must be some trick waiting for us. It's just, it's just that I won't say it. ”

"What is there if you don't say it? This is not a war of words, you can win a big victory with just sharp teeth, and how can a clever mouth compare to your iron halberd at a critical moment! Qin Xu smiled and said, "But I have to say, madam, you and that Miss Zhen are right." If it weren't for the unexpected changes between these two soldiers guarding this place, then there would be a chance that someone would have tried to harm me! ”

"That'...... How's that to be? I'm used to water, but the halberd is too heavy, and it takes a lot of effort to use it in the water. Lu Lingqi asked with a serious face.

"What else can I do? River! The corners of Qin Xu's mouth showed a little smile, and he said: "General Wenyuan is a handsome talent in the world, and he must have some experience in guarding the plain for more than a year. It's almost time, and now I've received the letter I was waiting for! And since this is a place where the three families are guarded across the river, it can almost be inferred that the Yuan army will definitely take care of Wen Yuantun's generals here, and only by 'making way' for the Cao family's soldiers can it be possible to drink some foot washing water when Cao Cao eats meat during the big victory...... But this time, not to mention the days of this delay, even if Cao Cao gets the news from us, it is estimated that he will think carefully for a while, cough cough, it is estimated that before Yuan Xi, the second son of the Yuan family who is cautious to save his life, reacts, it will be possible to make a move! Therefore, the current situation is more important than the crossing of the river. (To be continued......)
