Chapter 571: If you can't finish it, take it slowly!
In the waves of Lichenggang, where his bones hurt, Zhang Shun was so happy that he was about to jump up after receiving the order from Wang Lun.
In fact, I don't blame this hero for making a fuss, but I blame the Goryeo sailor for being too pustuated, and he was almost wiped out in several battles back and forth on Jeju Island. On that day, the Liangshan Water Army was almost effortless in the battle to seize the port in Licheng, because in addition to the first day of landing, Zhang Shun's water ghost camp was no longer useful, but was sent to garrison Licheng Port with the second battalion of the infantry army.
Seeing the meritorious service of the other war camps and the awards of the awards, but they had nothing to do in the port all day, the brothers were about to find out what was wrong.
"Brother and sister-in-law, you are really timely rain! Say, what does my brother want me to do with Zhang Shun? Zhang Shun urgently asked Sun Xin and Gu sister-in-law who came to give the order.
"Brother asked the brothers in your camp to go by boat to open the water gate of the capital to gather, and I brought the Goryeo who knew the path here to lead you on the boat!" Sun Xin saw that he was anxious, so he didn't say too much to greet him, and went straight to the point.
"Did my brother tell us brothers to do something?" Zhang Shunjian said, and asked again, although he also knew that it was unlikely that there would be a combat mission at the moment, but he still did not give up for a while.
"Yang Zhi's mouth is so tight, didn't he tell you that we copied the granary of the Koreans?" Sister-in-law Gu glanced at Sun Xin in some surprise, saw Zhang Shun's blank face, and said: "Brother Tang Bin copied out three million stone grains in Kaijing City and transported them by land, but in what year and month did they go?" It was my brother who had already set up ships in the city, and the brothers who were sending the navy to ask your brothers to come and help! ”
"Three million stones?" Zhang Shun was shocked by this amount, and after a long pause, he said: "With so much food, how can it be enough to rely on the ships that have been temporarily detained?" These four big ships of 5,000 materials were filled with other seizures, so naturally they couldn't make the trip! It's just that our fleet went to Jeju Island again, and we relied on these small boats to move the ants. Shipped to the Year of the Monkey? ”
"Blame my Hun family for not explaining, when I left, I heard two staff officers say, your battalion's task is to transport all the other captures except food, and when our Liangshan fleet returns, it's not too late to carry food!" Seeing this, Sun Xin added.
"Even if our fleet is back, we can't transport so much food in a short period of time? Could it be that my brother is going to transport the grain to Licheng Port? Yuan Lang, who had been listening to everyone's conversation, spoke out at this time and expressed the doubts in his heart, "Lichenggang is a small city, and it is easier to defend than Kaijing, so let's be ruthless." If you want to guard him for a few months, it's still not a big problem! ”
When Sun Xin heard that Yuan Lang's concerns were roughly the same as what Qiu Yi said at the time, he couldn't help but be quite surprised, and immediately said:
"Brother Yuan, don't say it, Staff Officer Qiu also asked my brother like this at that time, and I happened to be there! I heard my brother say, as long as we leave a soldier and a soldier in Licheng Port, the hearts of the Korean people will not be able to let go, not to mention that there are three million grains and grass in the city that originally belonged to them. If we want to defend the city, we need at least tens of thousands of horses. After a long time, casualties are indispensable, and we cannot do such a thing that does all kinds of harm and no benefit. ”
"Let's just go to the open sea of Licheng Port. Find an uninhabited island, transport grain to this island first, and then leave a sufficient number of sailors to guard it, anyway, the Goryeo sailors have been destroyed. The island is very safe, and then you don't have to rush back to it! In addition, we are entrenched in the open sea, and occupy the port of Licheng. The pressure on the Korean people is completely different, and this is especially important! What's more, when the time is right, we can also use various channels to make them understand our suffering...... Marshal Wang wants to rely on this grain to get promoted! ”
In fact, at the north and south ends of the estuary of the Licheng River, there are many islands scattered among them, and it is not difficult to find an island with relatively flat terrain, Wang Lun means that it is best to find an island that can be self-sufficient in fresh water. Of course, if you really don't have it, you can make do with it, after all, this place is not far from the Licheng River, and although it is a little troublesome to hydrate every day, it is not an impossible task.
When Yuan Lang heard the end, he couldn't help but shout "Okay", this familiar scene made Sun Xin and Gu Sister-in-law couldn't help but smile at each other, who knew that there was something more strange, only to hear Yuan Lang continue:
"As the saying goes, 'If you have food in your hands, you won't panic!' My brother has worked hard to keep this batch of food, and he must have a big plan! When this batch of grain is put into storage, it will be tens of millions of Song people who have migrated from Jingdong, and we dare to pat our chests and say the three words 'bearable'! ”
"Our leader of Liangshanbo is really a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger!" Hearing this, this kind of sigh surged in the hearts of the couple at the same time, thinking that Yuan Lang was a military general, and the depth of looking at this issue was no less than that of Qiu Wei, a civil official, and they couldn't help but be disrespectful.
"Who will you send to find the island?" Urged by Yuan Lang's words, Zhang Shun was already a little eager to try.
Sun Xin and Sister-in-law Gu both looked at Zhang Shun and said with a smile: "Brother, you! ”
"Me?" Zhang Shun was stunned.
"Search for suitable islands, find out the water level, build a dock for boats, who among us is as good as you, brother?" Sun Xin said with a smile, seeing that Zhang Shun still had a puzzled expression, he suddenly let out an "oh" and said, "Blame our husband and wife for not making it clear for a while, so that the brothers misunderstood!" It should be your brothers, go to open the water gate of the capital and report to Xu Junshi. And brother, you have another appointment, that is, to take a hundred brothers and go with us husband and wife to find the island. A few days ago, we chose a landing site, and my husband and wife also ran a lot of places, but we still have some impressions! ”
"What else do you say? Just do it! Zhang Shun smiled when he saw it, hugged his fist at Yuan Lang, and said, "Brother Yuan, greet Brother Shi Yong for me, and the younger brother will not go to say goodbye to him!" ”
"I'm going to get there! It's important for you to do great things! Yuan Lang smiled and nodded, and agreed to the three leaders present before taking his leave.
Zhang Shun sent Yuan Lang away, and without saying a word, he gathered the brothers in the whole camp and told them to take a dozen small Goryeo merchant ships to the water gate of Kaijing City to stand by.
And he took Sun Xin and Gu Sister-in-law, who acted as guides, into two small boats, and swayed to the south of the mouth of the Licheng River.
Feeling the oncoming sea breeze, Zhang Shun was quite happy. It is said that he can barely be regarded as the veteran of the cottage, but unfortunately there are not many tasks on the head of their water ghost camp, every time it is just training and training and training, and he has now "fallen" to the point that no matter what the task, as long as he can get involved, he will rush to do it, for fear of being forgotten.
Of course, it's not that the cottage doesn't value him. In fact, the entire water army is almost in this situation, and there are no strong water opponents at the moment. In fact, Wang Lun has always had high hopes for Zhang Shun, because he firmly believes that when the cottage develops to a certain stage, the sailor will definitely become another trump card in his hand.
"Brother and sister-in-law, what is the island we are going to now?" Seeing that Sun Xin and Sister-in-law Gu were pointing in the direction of the finger, Zhang Shun turned around and asked.
"Brother, you are one of the Tiangang numbers, and you are one of the 'Five Tiger Generals' in our cottage army, and you go up the mountain before our husband and wife. Calling us brother and sister-in-law, I really can't afford it! ”
I had been talking about business just now, and Sun Xin didn't have time to talk about false etiquette, at this time, everyone was more relaxed, and Sun Xin's words blurted out when they came to their mouths.
"Put aside the void, talk about the year, the two are older than the younger brother, what's wrong with the younger brother shouting brother and sister-in-law?" Zhang Shun was still in high spirits at the beginning, but as soon as he finished speaking. Suddenly, his eyes were a little dim, as if he remembered something from the past.
Sun Xin and Gu Sister-in-law glanced at each other when they heard this, in fact, they had all heard about Zhang Shun, and his brother Zhang Heng was unfilial. He was incompatible with his mother, and because Wang Lun was very disgusted with such unfilial people, he never came up to the mountain, and later followed Song Jiang to avenge his personal revenge. As a result, he died at the hands of the villagers.
At this time, Sun Xin also touched the scene, and couldn't help but think of his brother Sun Lilai, and thought that he would rather follow Song Jiang all the way to the black. refused to go up to Liangshan with King Chao, and Sun Xin couldn't help but feel uncomfortable in his heart. I don't know if my brother didn't have this life, and he couldn't climb Liangshan's list of heaven and earth.
"If you don't give up, you will treat us as relatives! What to shout sister-in-law, call sister! "Sister-in-law Gu's appearance is five big and three coarse, and she can't get close to being gentle and charming, but her heart is actually full of unpretentious maternal brilliance, and the brothers in the cottage all say that Xie Zhen and Xie Bao are blessed, and there can be such a sister in this life.
"Done! Brother and sister! Hearing this, Zhang Shun clasped his hands into fists and saluted the couple.
Let's say that the three of them smoothed out the relationship, and they spoke casually, only listening to Gu's sister-in-law: "The island we went to has no name, it is farther away from the land than other islands, I heard that there will be fishermen on the island to hide from the wind and rain, but basically no one is stationed, we just don't bother anyone!" ”
When Sister-in-law Gu said this, she only heard Sun Xinkou say: "Originally, Staff Officer Qiu meant to find an inhabited island and rent their house to pile up grain and grass, but my brother and Xu Junshi didn't agree with this opinion, so they gave up!" ”
Zhang Shun did not ask Wang Lun and Xu Guanzhong in detail about the reasons for their disapproval, and the angle and depth of the two cottage leaders were far beyond the reach of these brothers. At this time, his thoughts had already drifted away with the sea breeze.
"This is about to leave, and the next time we come back, I don't know what the scenery will be!" Zhang Shun sighed.
Zhang Shun's exclamation brought out the feelings of Sun Xin and Gu's sister-in-law who had been undercover for more than half a year, and both of them were embarrassed. However, Sister-in-law Gu found that Zhang Shun had just started, and her feelings were suddenly a little low, and she comforted him and said:
"It won't be too long! But when we come here again, we won't land from its waist and belly, and when the time comes, we will fight steadily, take a city and defend a city, and we will have our own territory in Liangshan! ”
"At that time, I don't know how many brothers will wear official seals, when you see me, you will come to say, 'Sun Taishou', and when I see you, I will also say, 'Gu Taishou', look at how lively our family is? By the way, it's funny to call Zhang 'Taishou'! ”
Sun Xin's joke made Gu's sister-in-law laugh, and even Zhang Shun couldn't help but forget her troubles, laughing heartily, only to see Gu's sister-in-law pointing at Sun Xin and saying: "The brothers in the cottage are too guarded, and it won't be your turn to talk nonsense here!" What a serious thing, how can it be in your mouth, just ...... Can't spit out ivory from a dog's mouth? ”
"It's not a place to behave here, isn't it okay for us to say it to our own family?" In the face of the Hun family's anger, Sun Xin was not surprised at all.
Sister-in-law Gu glared at Sun Xin and said to Zhang Shun: "When my family should be serious, there is no ambiguity. It's usually noisy, but if he doesn't have this temperament, he can't stand your sister's straight temper! ”
Zhang Shun is a delicate person, and he enjoys this kind of scene like a family gathering together to chat about family life, and nods again and again, responding to the sister of this "commenting" brother-in-law. People's feelings are strange, Sister-in-law Gu just gave Zhang Shun a feeling of being a sister-in-law, and Sun Xin, the newly recognized brother, is more like a brother-in-law at this time.
Seeing that Gu's sister-in-law was willing to say this, Sun Xin smiled with relief and said, "God is pitiful, you finally know that I let you on weekdays!" ”
Sister-in-law Gu ignored him and said to Zhang Shun: "I am a woman, and I don't know what a future is. It's just that my two brothers can comfort his parents under Jiuquan in the future, and I, as a sister, will be at ease! ”
Sun Xin saw that the Hun family was talking about his cousin, the expression on his face was slightly retracted, and he restored his cousin's physique, and when Sister-in-law Gu finished speaking, he sighed and said: "Sister, there is something I haven't discussed with you, but it's not too late to say it now, Brother Zhang Shun also helped me refer to it!" ”
"What's the matter?" Sister-in-law Gu was a little puzzled when she saw Sun Xin's serious appearance.
"After this vote, I want to talk to my brother and see if I can be replaced by the infantry army!" Sun Xin's words were so startled that Gu's sister-in-law's open mouth couldn't close for a long time, Sun Xin didn't laugh, but continued:
"Our Sun family has been from the military for generations, why I didn't join the army in the first place, you know the reason. But the world is unpredictable, now in Liangshanbo, looking at the brother is wise, the military advisors are virtuous, and the brothers are righteous, it is a place where you can fight for fame with a knife and a gun, I don't fight again, when I am old, what will I use to protect my children and grandchildren? ”
Sun Xin's words in his heart made Gu's sister-in-law completely stunned, not wanting her husband to hold back such a thought in her heart, so she immediately complained: "Boss, why didn't you say it earlier!" ”
"What's the difference between saying it early and saying it late? The stone pillar didn't say that I can only work hard all my life! Sun Xin shook his head, in fact, he wanted to join the field camp for another purpose, that is, to make more meritorious contributions, and to have the confidence to speak for his brother in front of the cottage brothers.
He is a younger brother, and he can't watch his brother follow the unreliable Song Jiang further and further on the road of no return!
"That's it, I'm the one who dragged you down! In fact, don't talk about your ability to go to the infantry army, how can you go to the horse army? In order to take care of us, my brother asked us to act together as husband and wife, and now that you have this heart, I can't stop you, right? When the time comes, we will go to my brother together as a husband and wife! "At critical moments, wives are always towards their husbands.
"Brother, two leaders, there is a big island in front, but it is not the nameless island that Leader Sun refers to, do you want to go up and have a look!" At this time, I only heard the small leader of Zhang Shun's subordinates come over and pray.
"You take your brother to the island first to explore the environment, and I will sit with my brother and sister for a while, and then I will come!" Zhang Shun commanded.
The little boss was just about to turn back, but was stopped by Gu's sister-in-law, and only listened to her: "Brother, don't sit down, don't delay your work, our husband and wife will go to the island with you!" ”
"Yes, we have a lot of burdens on us! Whether the three million stone grain can be safely transported back to Jeju Island this time depends on whether we can find a good island and reef for the army! ”
After Sun Xin finished speaking, he took a step forward, plunged into the sea water, and after stabbing himself up, he only heard the strange voice of Gu's sister-in-law on the boat coming into his eardrums, Sun Xin smiled heartily and swam towards the unknown destination in front of him.
