Chapter 5: Lost

Xiao Wuye and he have only met twice in a hurry, it has been two and a half years since the last meeting, after the East China Sea war, Xiao Wuye was almost idle in Wanling, and Xu Ruyu became a tyrant in the southeast. Xiao Wuye was willing to accept this salute calmly, and hurriedly bowed and said, "Wuye is panicked. ”

Zhang Zhongdao said with a smile: "Youli and Yunbo's convoy is at the gate of the city, you don't ask, but they pour sour gas on each other here, I can't stand it, so I went to the mansion to find wine." He strode into the house, and after a while, he shouted, "I'm going to live in the inn today." ”

Xiao Wuye was slightly surprised, and followed Xu Ruyu into the mansion gate, only to know why Zhang Zhongdao was screaming, and said: "General Qingfeng is really admirable. ”

Xu Ruyu looked at the temporary mansion with only four walls, and said with a smile: "This house is tall and spacious, it belongs to Huatang, I live here, I don't know how much better than the people in the city, how can there be anything worthy of admiration?" After a pause, he said with a solemn expression, "Brother Wuye, do you still remember what you and I said outside Yongyang City back then?" After that, he took out a book from his arms, which was the booklet that Xiao Wuye handed over to Xu Ruyu about the practice of Danxi, Xu Ruyu held it with both hands, and said: "Ruyu didn't dare or forget Wuye's righteousness, so Zhongdao invited Brother Wuye to Yongyang, and returned the great kindness of the people in Yongyang." ”

Xiao Wuye took back the booklet, looked at it a little, looked uplifted, and said, "Dare to disobey your fate?" ”

Xu Ruyu looked at each other and smiled, and said: "I want to ask Brother Wuye to serve as a teacher at the military headquarters of the fifth school, with the rank of general guard, is Brother Wuye willing?" ”

There are no generals in the family military system, and usually the generals above the rank of commander are the heads of the military and government of one party, serving as the capital or the captain.

The Yongyang reform implements the separation of military and government, and adds two levels of generals and generals above the command ranks, while the command ranks are separated, with the school lieutenant as the post and the command as the rank, and the rank below the school captain is no longer set up.

Military positions are divided into lieutenants, battalion lieutenants, left lieutenants, sentinels, soldiers, and small orders, and the deputy positions are added from the school lieutenant to the left lieutenant, which is the captain to join the army, the battalion captain to join the army, and the left lieutenant to join the army.

Xiao Wuye knew that the rank of General Wei was the second rank in the army, second only to the rank of General Zhang Zhongdao and Jiang Lingtian, and said: "Wuye is under the command of Lord Wuye, and he has not made an inch of land, so he dare not accept the rank of General Wei. ”

Zhang Zhongdao thought to himself: Xiao Wuye is not stupid, he is the fourth highest position in the Yongyang army as soon as he comes, and that group of rabbit cubs still has a stomach for advice, and they are looking for your fault?

Among the five schools, Ning Yueshan has the least qualifications, and the other few people are not fuel-efficient lamps, and in their eyes, I am afraid that only Xu Ruyu, Jiang Lingtian and a few others can control them.

Xu Ruyu saw that Xiao Wuye's words of thanks were very resolute, and he was not reluctant.

Xiao Wuye finally served as a military captain of the fifth school to teach and train, with the rank of commander, and his status in the army was ranked after Ning Yueshan.

The suffix "teaching and learning" is the temporary acting of the general school and the school captain, and the specific position will not be appointed until the five schools and armies are truly reorganized.

When the five schools were originally scattered in various families, they were all small in scale, and there was no need to appoint middle and senior generals. At this time, it was unified into the Jinghai Theater and reached a scale of 30,000 people, and the scale of the Yongyang Guard Battalion was more than doubled to more than 67,000 in a short period of time.

Mei Liting, Shen Binglu, Shen Yi, Ning Yueshan, and Xing Kun Minyuan all served as middle and senior generals in the Wuwei Military Department, and they were all transferred to the Fifth School Army. In the Wuwei Army, Zhang Zhongdao is high in the rank of general, and there are three to four vacancies at the two levels of General Wei and the rank of commander, if it were not for the consideration that Xiao Wuye played a greater role in the formation of the Fifth School Army, he really wanted to pull him to the Wuwei Army. In the middle base army, Jiang Lingtian and below did not have the rank of general Wei or commander-level, and there were only ten battalion lieutenants. However, Jiang Lingtian's expertise is slightly different from Zhang Zhongdao's, he has served as the lieutenant of Yongyang for two years, and he is very skilled in handling military affairs, and he does not feel any inconvenience without a deputy.

Zhang Zhongdao wanted to pull one person from Mei Liting and others to help him act in the Wuwei Army, but Xu Ruyu refused to allow it. I had to set my eyes on the Qingjiang military system.

Xu Ruyu has been suppressing bandits in Qingjiang for nearly two years, Ming Xi, Wei Yu, Liang Bao, Zhang Xu and others can all be in charge alone, but they each have important positions in Qingjiang, even if Xu Ruyu agrees to release them, Shao Haitang will stop them. Even Xu Ruyu can calculate people, Zhang Zhongdao always avoids it, Wei Yan is not patient with cumbersome military affairs, Feng Yuanyuan has just been appointed as the commander of the newly formed Xiaowei Battalion, although he has been subjected to many obstacles in Qingjiang, but with his surname, he may not agree to avoid Yongyang.

Thinking about it, I have to complain that the establishment of Yongyang Yanwutang is too slow, as long as the generals in Yongyang's various armies are lineaged, Xu Ruyu will not control the number of middle and senior generals so strictly.

It was not until the end of October that Xu Ruyu was able to get out of Yongyang's affairs and go to Southern Fujian with Jun Shushui and Ouyang Lei, who rushed to Yongyang again, and at this time, Xu Boying and Ziyangqiu had been trapped in Quanzhou for three months.

Jun Xiaoyun saw that Xu Ruyu's tight control over Yongyang was not something that could be infiltrated by foreign forces like the Changhe Gang, so he turned to seek the possibility of cooperating with Xu Ruyu.

The predecessor of the Jinghai Sea Battalion was the first and second battalions of the Qingjiang Water Battalion, and it had no experience in naval warfare and naval navigation. Xu Ruyu's formation of the Jinghai Sea Battalion will never be limited to the inner line defense.

The Changhe Gang has been operating the Bohai Sea Waterway for decades and is a better collaborator than the Donglin Society.

Yongyang was inseparable from the help of the Changhe Gang in the construction of sea ships, sea navigation, and naval warfare training.

Even so, it is impossible for the Changhe Gang to gently transfer to Yongyang, and before the Yongyang Hainan Airlines is restored, the benefits of Cao Yun are not enough for the local boat gangs, and how can the foreign boat gangs interfere.

Jun Xiaoyun saw that as long as Xu Ruyu once again achieved the same record as the Battle of Fuzhou in the battle with Gongliang Gongqin, not only could he completely restore the Yongyang Naval Navigation, but also obtain one or two coastal cities in the southeast, and then Xu Ruyu's sphere of influence would have enough space to accommodate the Changhe Gang.

Under such circumstances, the Changhe Gang began to carry out small-scale sea shipping in the northern part of Jinghai, not to infringe on the interests of Yongyang's inland river transportation. The fleet of the Changhe Gang was able to cross the sea area under the jurisdiction of the Pingcheng Water Camp, but it was the result of an understanding reached between Xu Ruyu and Chen Yu.

When the three of them crossed the sea area of Yuejun, they met Sun Lai, who had fallen into a coma with the waves, and learned from him that Ji Mo Ruiping had seen the clansmen sent by Wuling Mountain. Ouyang Lei went ashore in Anxi to Yueqing to report the news, so that Baiyi stopped the heroic and tragic operation of floating the poster, Xu Ruyu and Jun Shushui took the unconscious Sun Lai to sail to the open sea, looking for other messengers sent by the Puji Islanders, until they met Shao Xiaoqi.

Sun Lai and Shao Xiaoqi's cultivation of the ancient practice of breathing boxing is the same as Liang Bao's Wood Cultivation Technique, but before Xu Ruyu perfected it with the Dan Breath Technique, the Cultivation Wood Fist was more deformed than the ancient practice of Breathing Fist practiced by Sun Lai and Shao Xiaoqi.

The ancient practice of breathing boxing only passed on the form of moves and had no moves, and there was no Dan breath route passed down, and it was not easy for Liang Bao, who was the outer branch of Baiyi, to remember so much.

Six hundred years ago, at the beginning of the Zhaowu period, the Central Plains martial arts closed the door to the nine surnames of Zhaowu, although the aliens of various ethnic groups are also endless, but before the heavenly master Chu Shiduan, no one can reach the peak of martial arts. If Xu Ruyu hadn't practiced the Water Stopping Heart Sutra, he might not have been able to discover the beauty of the ancient practice of breathing fist with his first-grade cultivation.

The ancient practice of Xiquan has been recorded in the secret art of Baiyi, but no one has ever known its true face, it is a pity that Baiyi has become a peerless master for hundreds of years.

Xu Ruyu asked Jun to take Shao Xiaoqi and Sun Lai ashore from Anxi.

Wei Yan led the soldiers of the Qingjiang cavalry battalion to operate in the area of Anxi, giving a cruel blow to the Puji bandits who invaded the territory, Anxi has become a deserted city for more than ten years, and there is nothing to loot, and the Puji bandits rarely operate near Anxi.

Xu Ruyu borrowed Shao Xiaoqi's raft made of shrub branches to float in the direction of Southern Fujian, but unexpectedly encountered hazy weather in the second day, lost his direction in the vast sea waves, stood alone on the lonely raft, looked at the flood waves surging, and the vast soup soup, so he had to let the raft drift with the waves in that sea area, and did not dare to deviate.

Unless Xu Ruyu's Knowledge of the Five Senses of Returning to the Heart is raised to the realm of dissolving with the breath of heaven and earth, Xu Ruyu will not be able to maintain it for a few days at sea. But when the mind is fully absorbed into Knowledge, it is not up to you to control where it goes.

Xu Ruyu smiled bitterly, and regretted that he did not return to Anxi by sea boat that passed away with the king, and then took the land route to Southern Fujian. I thought that floating in the sea could save time, but I didn't expect to be trapped in the vast sea.

The people who responded from Zhangtai and Longquan waited for three days and did not see any trace of Xu Ruyu, but it was Jun Shushui and Minna who came from Wuling Mountain.

The secret room in Quanzhou passed the news to Xu Boying and Zi Yangqiu, who were trapped in Quanzhou.

Xu Boying looked at Zi Yangqiu, who was a little frightened, and said, "You don't know the direction, and you probably got lost on the sea." ”

Ziyangqiu was surprised and said, "This is the first time I've heard of it. ”

Xu Boying said with a smile: "When will Ru Yu not bring someone to accompany you when you go elsewhere in Qingjiang?" Of course, it doesn't happen to get lost. This time, he left the king of the Changhe Gang and drifted alone, as long as the stars and moon were gone, it would be strange that he would not get lost. Quanzhou has been stormy these days, and it is no better to come to the sea, as long as the sea is calm, Ru Yu will naturally find the direction again. ”

Zi Yangqiu said: "It's just that it's impossible to say how long it will be delayed." ”

Xu Boying pondered for a moment and said: "We don't need to wait for Ru Yu to come before making a decision, Ru Yu's combat intentions should not change, we have been detained here for three months, if there is no movement in the Lishui River Valley, wouldn't it be too weak to be bullied." I suggested that the Xiaowei battalion immediately leave Wuling Mountain and enter the border between Wulingyi and Zhangtaiyi. The news that the army of foreign sectarians and politicians were active in the area of Zhangtai and Longyan and blocked the area, but it was not effective in preventing the Puji bandits from landing and attacking, and there must be an article to be found here, and it is recommended to send people to infiltrate the area regardless of the consequences. ”
