"Why don't there be boats on this river?"

Looking at the Yangtze River in front of him, Zhang Meng wondered.

"This situation must be under martial law, I don't know this?" Ye Min Yan said.

Wang Xu smiled: "Even if martial law is imposed, there should be a boat across the river a day, right?" ”

"Let's go to a nearby city and ask."

Ten miles west of the Yangtze River, there is a small city, this city is not big, only tens of thousands of residents, it is also the closest city to the army of the Yangtze River first-line naval army of the Ming Kingdom, and there are 20,000 elites stationed in it!

In order to save time, the three of them bought three horses, and finally arrived at the city before dark, which was called Tunyang.

........

"I heard that the water army camp opposite is distributing dry food in the past few days, and it seems that there is another big tent."

"Where did you hear that, why didn't I know?"

"I have a brother who works as an errand in the Dongjun Water Army Barracks, and he sent someone to tell me, don't talk nonsense everywhere."

........

When the three of them arrived at the city gate, they heard the shocking news.

The Dongdu Navy is actually distributing dry food, this is obvious, it is about to start a war, so where to fight?

Wang Xu couldn't stand his curiosity and leaned over: "Two brothers, just now you said that Dongjun was distributing dry food to soldiers in the past few days?" ”

As soon as Wang Xu spoke, the two soldiers standing guard suddenly became vigilant: "What are you doing, hurry up and go away." ”

Wang Xu smiled, took out ten taels of silver from his pocket and quietly handed it over: "I'm a businessman, just a businessman, I originally wanted to go to Dongjun, if I want to fight, I don't dare to go, so I asked the two brothers." ”

When they saw the silver, their eyes lit up, and one of them immediately took it, but the other didn't do it. wanted to rob it, Wang Xu saw this, and took out another ten taels of silver.

"Don't rob the two brothers, I still have it. Take it to the bar. ”

Of course, the guards of the city will not be polite, and the other person will take it.

Wang Xu said: "Can you answer my question now?" ”

As the saying goes, take people softly, eat people with short mouths, and now look at Wang Xu. The two of them were very enthusiastic: "Big brother, if you want to do business, don't cross the river, where can you do business." ”

"Why?"

The man said: "In the past few days, the navy on the opposite side is ready to go, and it looks like it is going to fight, if you go over now, you will definitely bump into it." ”

"Thank you very much!"

Wang Xu arched his hand.

Next, the three of them entered the city without any difficulty, and then found an inn to stay.

"Guest, the tea you asked for is here."

Inside the room. Xiao Er walked in with a kettle, first filled Wang Xu with ginseng, and then prepared to retreat, but at this time, he saw Zhang Meng standing next to him, and his expression was slightly shocked.

And looking at Wang Xu, who was sitting at the table drinking tea, he immediately knelt down: "Li Ling, the brocade guard of Tunyang City, see Your Majesty, long live my emperor!" ”

Wang Xu was taken aback, his whereabouts have always been close. How can it be seen, fortunately it is Jinyiwei, if it is an enemy, it will be a little troublesome.

"Get up. How did you know who I am? ”

Li Ling got up and arched his hand: "I had the honor to see General Zhang, and General Zhang is His Majesty's personal guard, and he is standing behind His Majesty at this moment, that..." ”

I have to say that Li Ling is very smart. Thinking about it carefully, this is really the case, and who is worthy of Zhang Meng's protection? It must be known that Zhang Meng's current status is unique among the Holy Dynasty, and he is a guard with a sword in front of the emperor, and his duty is to protect Wang Xu.

"Well, you are clever, do things well, and when you make meritorious contributions, you will definitely be rewarded!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

In fact, Wang Xu was a little reluctant in his heart, there were too many credits for Jinyi Weili, but they were all done in secret, and it was inconvenient to reward.

In fact, now Jinyiwei has been exposed in the DPRK, especially the Military Aircraft Department, the Sixth Department, etc., all know that Ye Xiong is the commander of Jinyiwei, and he often cooperates and makes meritorious contributions.

Wang Xu thought for a while and said: "When I return to the imperial capital, I will order the reward of Jinyiwei, as for how to reward it, I still have to think about it." ”

Li Ling's expression was overjoyed, he had been waiting for this day for a long time, and he believed that all the Jinyi guards in the world were waiting for Wang Xu's words.

Suddenly thinking of something, Li Ling's expression was straight, and he said: "Your Majesty, the commander has sent a message, if we meet Your Majesty, please return to the palace immediately." ”

Wang Xu said: "Did Ye Xiong say anything else?" ”

Li Lingdao: "The commander only said eight words: 'The situation is unstable, return to the palace quickly!'" ’”

The situation is unstable?

"What is the instability? Isn't this the world peaceful, that is, the Dongjun Water Army Camp has just made a small move, has this matter been transmitted to the imperial capital? ”

As soon as Wang Xu finished speaking, Li Ling nodded: "Back to Your Majesty, as early as five days ago, Dongjun had not yet started to distribute dry food, so we got the news, and then sent it to the imperial capital in an expedited manner for eight hundred miles." ”

"Very well done, the speed of your brocade guards is working very fast."

"Your Majesty has won the prize, this is what we should do."

Wang Xu said: "Then do you know what Dongjun is doing this for?" Is it to start a war against the Ming Kingdom? ”

Li Lingdao: "Very likely! ”

"It is said that the prime minister of the country was attacked by assassins, he was stabbed twice, and his life was in danger, such a good opportunity, how could Dongjun let it go, this is a good opportunity for them to attack."

Cai Wenzhuo was actually injured?

Wang Xu frowned.

"It seems that the Ming Congress is in trouble this time."

Ye Minyan said happily: "Great, now there is finally a battle to fight, and I want to be a pioneer." ”

Wang Xu and Zhang Meng rolled their eyes in unison, the imperial court and the Ming Kingdom are at war, what is the matter with Guan Shengchao, besides, even if the Holy Dynasty wants to intervene, it is impossible to let Ye Minyan be the vanguard, which soldier will be convinced?

"Okay, okay, even if you fight, it's none of your business, let's accompany Zhang Meng and lead the Yulin Army."

Wang Xu looked at Li Ling: "Send a message to the imperial capital, let the soldiers of all departments be ready to fight, you have to tell Jia Hui that I mean to fight!" ”

Beat?

"Just one word?"

"Just one word, as soon as you say it, they know what to do."

Li Ling arched his hand: "No." ”

"Retire from your duties."

Li Ling slowly pushed away, this was the first time he had seen the emperor, and he was calm and unhurried, it was not easy, Wang Xu was also very satisfied, and he also remembered the name Li Ling, if he wanted to reward Jinyiwei in the future, he must be promoted.

"Ninth Master, what does that typing mean? What does that mean? ”

Zhang Meng said.

Wang Xu didn't answer his words, got up and came to the window, looked at the scenery outside the window and muttered: "The Eastern Capital Imperial Court is also too anxious, is he sure that he can face the three major powers at the same time?" ”

Wang Xu's words are really meaningful, isn't it just to fight the Ming Kingdom? How did it become that it was facing the three kingdoms at the same time? It's a question worth considering! (To be continued.) )
