Chapter Seventy-Eight: A Quiet Day
Nine deaths and one life, shame and courage. Writing "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info before, Ying Xu still felt that if the Qin Dynasty was destroyed, he took the people of Qin Weizhuang to find an old forest in the deep mountains and survived for a lifetime. But reality tells him that it is definitely not an easy thing to live in this troubled time in the future. If the Qin Dynasty falls, many people want to use his dog's head as a vote. Even if you don't have a fight with the world, even if you don't pose any threat to them. They won't let you live either. Strive for hegemony in troubled times, and if you don't advance, you will retreat.
In the house, Yingxu was not idle, but picked up pen and ink to draw the first modern version of the Qin Dynasty's map of China, of course, bamboo slips are not good, so Yingxu used white cloth, the map just roughly outlined the outline of each province, marked the provincial capitals, the Yangtze River, the Yellow River, Shanghai, Taiwan, etc.
Yingxu also marked the great city of the Qin Dynasty that he considered important on the modern version of the map. It's not accurate enough, but it barely works. To fight the world in troubled times, we must first have our own territory, the territory cannot be in the land of the four wars, but it cannot be in the wilderness, it must be able to defend and attack, and it must be more suitable for development, it is best to rely on the sea, it is best to have a certain population base in the early stage, and it is also necessary to make the court suspect that they have ambitions, and they want them to feel that they are useless, so as to get a good place. Then this place can't be too big.
Ying Xu stared at the modern version of the map of China, his eyes kept rolling on it, although Jin, Hebei, Luyu and Yu are all good places, but there are local forces in the six countries, Qin is not bad, he has Qin Weizhuang, and the Qin Dynasty is not fiefdom, it seems that there is no play. Gradually, Yingxu's eyes crossed the Yellow River and the Yangtze River and stopped at the land of Baiyue. Baiyue is a big place, but there are fewer people, Yingxu's eyes are thinking about the coastal provinces, it is best to Shanghai, or Fuzhou is not bad, Guangzhou is the second, where the port can be built. Should the current Shanghai be in Shendi? Yingxu was thinking about where to set his base. There was a sudden knock on the door.
"Didn't you tell no one to disturb my son?"
"Childe, is Prime Minister Feng in the hall?" Han Sui's voice said.
"Alright, I'll go right away, and order that no one is allowed to enter this room now!" Ying Xu left the map and walked out quickly, and instructed Han Sui.
Old man Feng came to see him, and he still had to go quickly. Presumably, he was also worried during his disappearance, and he had planned to go north to visit tomorrow. Ying Xu hurriedly came to the hall and saw Feng Qu sitting in the hall of the grass hut, and hurriedly saluted and said:
"Disciple, Master"
Half a month ago, Feng Qu came to Zhuji to learn the news of Ying Xu's disappearance, although Gan Mo said that Ying Xu would return safely in the near future. But he was inevitably worried in his heart, three days ago he learned that Yingxu had returned safely to pearl diving in the upper reaches of the Oujiang River, and his hanging heart was at ease, and today he took the opportunity to receive grain and grass before he came back to see it in person.
"You can come back safely, the teacher is very relieved, and tell me what happened in the past month!" Feng Qujian said after taking a sip of water.
"Boy Teacher Lao is worried? , that day, the kid found that ...... "Yingxu didn't have anything to hide, he found an abnormality on the road, was chased and killed by the concubine, and blamed the old man for saving him, and he was recuperating from the injured yard and so on.
Feng Qujian listened very carefully, and breathed a sigh of relief when he heard Gongsun Guang appear to save him, and listened to all of Yingxu's experience. Final Words:
"Gongsun Guang's behavior is grotesque, so that you can understand the seminary. Guiguzi deceives people too much, and the teacher will play His Majesty the Emperor, and ask for this rooster and dog thief, and the troublemaker who disturbs the country! ”
"Kid Teacher Xie cares, but this person's martial arts are extremely high, and ordinary people are afraid that they are his opponents?" Ying Xu felt that it was not possible to catch such a person, and it would not be possible to catch a fast sergeant.
"Haha, you don't have to worry about this, someone must be able to control him! How many days can you get some rest? ”
Ying Xu thought that it must be the shadow guard who could cure Guiguzi, so he didn't say more. But listening to Feng Quji's illness and letting him rest, he thought that this would not work, his body was basically healed, and he was already planning to compete for the world, so waiting was definitely a waste of time, and he had to become active, so that he could continue to grow himself. So he hurriedly saluted and said:
"The Baiyue War is in full swing, the soldiers are fighting bloodily, and the teacher is also working tirelessly to supervise the grain and grass, how can the kid spend his days in the back. Please ask the teacher to allow the kid to return to the camp immediately and serve my Daqin. ”
"You think so, the teacher is very happy, it just so happens that the former army has crossed the Oujiang River and penetrated deep into the hinterland of Minyue, and the old man discussed with Ren Shuai and decided to directly transport grain from Zhuji to the hinterland of Minyue to supply the former army. Can you do that? Feng Quji seemed to have made arrangements for him, and when he heard Ying Xu take the initiative to ask him, he said solemnly.
Transporting grain directly from Zhuji to the hinterland of Minyue can save a lot of time, and Yingxu felt that this plan was completely feasible, so he agreed. In the end, Feng Quji instructed Yingxu some more details, and then left the grass house.
After Feng Qujian left, Ying Xu brought Han Sui, Zhang Hu, and Zhang Feng to find out about the situation during his disappearance. In general, the pearl diver did not change much, and not long after he disappeared, Feng Qujian quickly came to take over the pearl diver. The army also arrived on the fifth day of Feng Quji's arrival in Zhuji.
The army did not stay long in Zhuji, and the whole army went north to meet Wang Xin, and the Zhuji dock still operated as arranged before Yingxu's disappearance. Han followed the slaves under his management to load grain and grass, and the slaves managed by Zhang Feng transported grain and grass to the outside of the village, and Zhang Hu's 500 people were arranged by Feng Quji to be stationed at the dock to protect the safety of grain and grass, and the wounded soldiers and ambulance teams were all arranged under Zhang Hu.
"How's the war going?" After listening to Zhang Feng's speech, Ying Xu asked Han Sui again.
After the sneak attack on pearl diving failed, the horse returned to the west bank of the Oujiang River. The Yue people besieging Wang Xin learned that the army was about to arrive and fled the Oujiang River, and now most of the army has crossed the Oujiang River. I heard the sergeant who came back from carrying grain say that the army had been divided into several routes, and one way south to attack the city of no kings, and the other roads were unknown. Han Sui recalled.
"Where's the horse?" Ying Xu came back and learned that it was Jijun and Fei Huang who conspired to attack Zhuji, so he also asked about this enemy.
"The Jun is missing now? But Nanye Zhao Tuo's army was repeatedly attacked for grain and grass, causing Nanye to have an army and not dare to come out, I think it was this person who did it? Zhang Feng analyzed.
"This person should be the fierce enemy of my Great Qin Unification Baiyue, and now it is good to pester Zhao Tuo, and he will not interfere with us. Today...... "Yingxu told him about transporting grain to the hinterland of Minyue, and discussed it with Han Sui, Zhang Hu, and Zhang Feng for more than an hour, and this time it was over.
In the afternoon, Hei Bo accompanied Yingxu to walk on the pier, watching the waves of sea tides, smelling the fishy smell wafting from the sea, looking at the sun falling into the sea, and bathing in the boundless waves with open arms.
"You were attacked that day, the concubine was calculated, your senior brother Bailin was deceived by the people of Shushan, and you have disappeared after returning. He was full of remorse, I learned that you were rescued by Gongsun Guang and let him go back to Buxian Mountain!. Hei Bo looked at Yingxu's exaggerated appearance and said with a smile.
It turned out that Bai Lin was deceived by the old guy that day, so he didn't come for a long time, and Yingxu was puzzled. Since Hei Bo asked Bai Lin to go back, maybe because of his considerations, Ying Xu didn't need to talk too much. However, the people in Mangdang Mountain and Shushan were mixed up with Fei Huang, and this time they and Fei Huang worked together to deceive Bai Lin, and it seemed that they were determined to go against themselves.
"Shushan?" Are they awesome? Ying Xu remembered that Hei Bo had mentioned Shushan to him before, and he belonged to the five factions.
"Shushan, said to be a faction or a clan, mainly the concubine clan, the former Shu royal family, after Qin destroyed Bashu, its royal family fled to the deep mountains, fearing that the Jian clan would be destroyed, and set up a faction to settle Qin's heart. There are about 1,000 inner disciples. I haven't been there, but it seems to be in the mountains of Shudi. It's hard to get in, it's hard to get out! Heibo reminisced about the past.
"After the establishment of the Fu family, it was divided into several branches, seeking immortals, asking for immortals, asking questions, alchemy, and practicing qi The four branches are the most obvious, among which the martial arts attainments of qi training are still relatively strong, and you can't be careless when you see it in the future." Hei Bo told Ying Xu.
"Hei Bo, what is the relationship between Shushan and Ghost Valley?" Ying Xu heard that the people in Shushan were called Uncle Guiguzi, and asked strangely in his heart.
"There are two branches in the Guigu lineage, and the ancestors of the concubine are the former monarchs of Shu, and they are the same clan as Shushan. However, the master of the previous generation of Guigu generation, his big apprentice was famine, I also saw it in the early years, although the hexagram was absolutely bent on recovering the country, he was stubborn and self-serving, and he was just a villain. ”
"What about his martial arts?" Ying Xu asked Hei Bo eagerly.
"I haven't seen him for more than ten years, and I don't know how his martial arts are now, but from what I heard you say, his way of dodging crossbow arrows is no longer under me. Heibo said self-deprecatingly.
If you want to kill Guiguzi, you must first understand him, the art of war knows yourself and your opponent, and you will not be defeated in a hundred battles. Ying Xu talked a lot about Fei Huang with Hei Bo, and knew that Fu Huang had a junior brother but was very mysterious.
The two chatted about the time they were separated from each other, and Yingxu said that Hei Bo listened. Heiber didn't say anything about his dance with strings. Yingxu didn't ask. The two chatted for a long time before returning to the courtyard.
It is definitely not a simple matter for the army to transport grain, during this time, the former army had to plan to find a suitable coast for ships to dock in the west of the Oujiang River, and Feng Quji also had to allocate ships, grain and grass and escort sergeants to Yingxu. Yingxu also has to do a good job of receiving.
