Chapter 598: Dark Incense Floats

The Qinhuai River is a tributary of the lower reaches of the Yangtze River, which is insignificant compared to the vast Yangtze River, but it is extremely famous in history. It is known as "the area of smoke and moon in the six dynasties, the place where gold powder gathers", and it is also a prosperous place for ten generations. Literary and elegant, a in the sea", known as China's first historical and cultural river.

However, the Qinhuai River at this time is far from the Qinhuai River in Liu Ze's impression, Sun Quan has just built the capital Jianye, the so-called beginning of the Six Dynasties, the smoke and clouds that came are prosperous, but Liu Ze has been admiring the Qinhuai River for a long time, this time he came to Jinling, and naturally wanted to take a walk on the Qinhuai River, even if he couldn't see the luxury of Qinhuai for ten miles, it was also good to take a look at the scenery of the Qinhuai River.

The fleet of the Seventh Army destroyed the remnants of the Eastern Wu Navy on the Jianye River in one fell swoop in a destructive way, and from the Yangtze River to the Qinhuai River section of Niutun where the Third Army was stationed, all the warships of the Eastern Wu were sunk, and none of them cruised on the Qinhuai River, and the Jing Army had completely mastered the water control of the Qinhuai River.

Gan Ning has no opinion on Liu Ze's proposal to go to the Qinhuai River to take a look, the Qinhuai River originally surrounded Jianye City, which is equivalent to the moat of Jianye City, Liu Ze personally went to inspect, in Gan Ning's view, this is Liu Ze to personally investigate the enemy's situation, naturally he has to vigorously cooperate, not to mention that there are Jing army warships cruising on the Qinhuai River, and Liu Ze's safety is not a problem. Originally, Gan Ning intended to let Liu Ze take the Yangwei, but Liu Ze thought that the Yangwei was too ostentatious, so Gan Ning arranged a smaller building ship and arranged two Mengchong escorts.

Liu Ze had no ward attendants, so he only took Pan Feng and dozens of guards and got on the boat.

Compared with the majestic momentum of the rolling Yangtze River. The Qinhuai River is as quiet as a pool of soft water, the green and tender waves can not see a trace of waves, and occasionally only the oars row across the water, will ripple layer by layer. Along the Qinhuai River upstream, the towering Jianye City is close in front of you, obviously Sun Quan wants to have a great achievement, Jianye City is magnificent, looking at it from afar, it will never lose to Luoyang, the national capital. At the end of the Han Dynasty, the city was mostly built of rammed earth, but the Jianye City was completely made of stone blocks. It can be seen how expensive Sun Quan has paid for it. This is also the origin of Jinling Castle being called Stone Town.

The walls made of huge stones were quite strong, and if the Jing army wanted to attack the city, it would inevitably fall into a protracted and bitter battle, and the catapults and bronze artillery were limited. I am afraid it will be difficult to shake such a strong wall. Unless the red-coated cannon in Xiapi City is transferred. Only by bombarding with solid bullets in turn can you have a chance to collapse the city wall. But those red-coated cannons were too heavy to transport. It is time-consuming and laborious, and Liu Ze can't afford to drag it out in Jiangdong, so he must fight quickly, once he falls into a stalemate and bitter battle, Cao Cao takes advantage of the gap to go south, and then he will suffer the enemy on his back, but it will be a big deal.

Therefore, Liu Ze led his troops to invade Wu this time, which was to use the naval ships to strengthen the artillery, raid the Yangtze River defense line of Eastern Wu in one fell swoop, and directly attack Jianye, just to take advantage of Cao Cao's failure to react, fight quickly, and force Sun Quan to make an alliance under the city, if Liu Ze wants to destroy Sun Quan, for the time being, he does not have such a big appetite, after all, Sun Quan is deeply rooted in Jiangdong, and the territory of the six counties in Jiangdong is extremely wide, if he really wants to fight, it is definitely not an overnight effort, will Cao Cao give him time? In this attack on Jiangdong, Liu Ze still left enough men and horses in Xiapi, and only the red-coated cannon was enough for Cao Cao to be frightened, but if the war in Jiangdong dragged on for too long, Cao Cao would definitely take advantage of the situation in Xuzhou, and the situation in Xuzhou was by no means optimistic, and when the time came, the two-front battle was the most headache for Liu Ze.

Liu Ze looked at Jianye's city wall from afar, mentally thinking about how to force Sun Quan to sign the alliance under the city, and then he heard the soldiers on the Meng Chong ship escorting in front of him shouting loudly to order the civilian ship to pull over.

Although all the warships of the Eastern Wu were wiped out, there were still some merchant ships on the Qinhuai River that passed back and forth, and the Jing army did not completely impose martial law, but only inspected the passing ships, and as long as they were civilian ships and did not carry weapons, they were all allowed to go. However, out of consideration for Liu Ze's safety, the sailors on the Meng Chong ship escorting the ship still ordered the civilian ship to pull aside.

Liu Ze took a look, it is a gorgeously decorated painting boat, although the Qinhuai River is far from becoming a place for future generations to be a place of gold powder and moon, but on both sides of the Qinhuai River, there are many merchants, and there are many shops, of course, it is now a time of war, rare and inhabited, if it is changed to peacetime, it must also be bustling, this painting boat, at a glance, is taken by those music girls and singers, begging for life and food on the Qinhuai River, Liu Ze waved his hand and ordered the soldiers below to prohibit disturbing the people.

The boat slowly leaned over to the side of the boat, as if he was not in a hurry to leave, the owner of the boat was a short and fat man in his fifties, and he thanked Liu Ze with a smile on his face: "Thank you, master!" Thank you, sir! ”

Liu Ze did not wear the crown of the king, nor did he wear the clothes and armor of the prince, nor did he go on a visit in micro-clothes, but he just wore ordinary Confucian clothes, and smiled indifferently: "You don't have to be polite, just do it." ”

The owner of the ship blinked, as if he believed that Liu Ze was not an ordinary person, and said flatteringly: "On my painting boat, there is the best singer in Jianye City, not only beautiful, but also proficient in singing and dancing, and please take a look at the master's face." ”

Originally, Liu Ze came here to enjoy the scenery, but he never thought that at this time, the Qinhuai River was actually ethereal, and the strong wine and sheng song were also beyond his expectations, but looking at the shops and wine shops on both sides of the Qinhuai River, Liu Ze was not surprised, it seems that this side of the Qinhuai River is really a treasure land of feng shui that breeds eternal romance. Today, Liu Ze's interest was very high, so he ordered the singer to be sent upstairs to the boat to dance.

Pan Feng didn't bother Liu Ze either, he was originally on guard, and when he saw that the people who boarded the ship were all teenage girls, all of them were delicate and graceful, so he also relaxed his vigilance.

In the sound of silk and bamboo strings, those singers danced, dancing gracefully, and their manners were all directions. Liu Ze tasted the fragrant tea, his eyes fell on the girl who led the dance, about fifteen or sixteen years old, tall, wearing a very thin silk coat to highlight the delicate curves of his carcass, Liu Ze has seen countless stunning beauties, such as Cai Yan, such as Diao Chan, that is all the peerless beauties of the city, the appearance of the girl in front of her can only be regarded as a middle-class posture, and they can't be compared at all, but this girl's figure is absolutely vigorous, as thin as a willow's slender waist, violent. Milk Abundance. The buttocks are about to come out, and they can definitely fight with those international supermodels in later generations.

This girl's figure is indeed eye-catching, Liu Ze couldn't help but take a few more looks, and he also noticed that this girl's appearance was completely different from that of the Central Plains woman, with fair skin, a tall nose bridge, blue eyes and brown eyes, and dark purple hair. Liu Ze was only a little surprised, but he was soon relieved, the land of Jiangdong was originally relatively desolate in the Han Dynasty, the Han people and the Dongyi people had many intermarriages, and it was normal to produce mixed-race children, among the Jiangdong people that Liu Ze knew, Sun Jian was with typical mixed-race characteristics, with a strange appearance, a high nose and yellow eyes, I heard that Sun Quan also inherited Sun Jian's characteristics, blue eyes and purple hair, described as Qiwei, and very bony, Liu Ze also saw him when Sun Quan was a child, but he didn't see him again when he became an adult, So the Jiangdong woman has such a posture, and Liu Ze is not surprised.

The girl's dance is very good, between the gestures, extremely graceful, the body is like a light willow, soft as a boneless, she dances the famous "Yue Yin Dance" in Wudi, showing the charm and beauty of the Jiangnan women to the fullest.

Liu Ze tasted fragrant tea and enjoyed the pleasing singing and dancing, and his tired body and mind also felt a sense of relaxation and pleasure.

The girl gradually approached Liu Ze, and the smile on her face became more and more charming. At the end of Liu Ze's nose, he seemed to smell a vague aroma, like an orchid and musk, elegant and fragrant. At first, Liu Ze didn't care, thinking that it was the perfume applied to these dancing women, but soon, a flash of inspiration came to his mind, because this fragrance was so special, so special that as long as Liu Ze smelled it once, he would never forget it for the rest of his life.

He suddenly realized and secretly exclaimed, "Not good! ”

At this moment, a dagger with cold light stabbed towards Liu Ze's heart. (To be continued......)
