Chapter 169: State Affairs Are Difficult and Many Battles (7)

The next day I got up and went to a market in the city.

There is a land temple on the side of the market, it is said that the land can increase blessings and wealth, so during the temple fair, there are merchants who come early, set up a mat shed, and surround this land temple and continue to build a market.

Tricksters, boxers, word testers, commentators...... The hustle and bustle is overwhelming, and the pilgrims are like ants.

Rebuild also casually walk, the willow breeze breeze, the weather is getting warmer, walk a few steps, see the river but there are a few peach blossoms, pink blooming, very good-looking.

After watching it for a while, a misty drizzle began to fall.

Rebuild to see that it is raining, and it happens that the bridge agreed with people is right in front of me, so I turn into the place under the bridge to block the rain, and enjoy, the rain falls in the river, the scenery is even better, and I see a boat coming in the rain.

The boat was not very large, near the bank of the river, and in the cabin sat a man with two servants in the stern shed, and a load of food boxes in the bow, and he came to the shore, and the man ordered the boatman to moor, and led the servants ashore.

Looking at this person, he saw that he was wearing a long-sleeved shirt and three locks of beard, about thirty years old, and walked to the door, and as soon as he met Chongxiu, he made a gesture and asked, "Presumably it is the face of the head of the sect?" ”

"Exactly," he said. ”

The man immediately smiled and said, "Finally picked up, I'm afraid of missing someone, I'm Lu Jiu." ”

As Lu Jiu spoke, he instructed the servant: "You all set the table, and I will use it with the Taoist chief." ”

He was not humble enough to rebuild, so he got into the boat, and the servant set up a table in the shed, and brought out a food box, and a roast chicken, and a fish, and vegetables, and poured tea.

It turned out that this Lu Jiu was the connector of the Dao vein in Jiangling, and after drinking some wine, Lu Jiu asked: "I don't know what you are doing when you come this time?" ”

These characters, small things can help, but big things are impossible, and the rebuilding is naturally very clear, so he said: "I just want to see the governor from afar." ”

But now moved to Jingzhou Governor Ding Feng, Ding Feng supported the Sun family for several generations, is now the most respected person in the Wu army, each generation of emperors no matter how they ascend the throne, they have to respect him, after Sun Yi seized the throne, he also respected Ding Feng, and appointed him as the governor of Jingzhou, and supervised all military and political affairs in Jingzhou.

When Lu Jiu heard this, he hesitated, although he also had an extraordinary family background, but he was still unable to arrange such a person, and at this time, he also saw his hesitation, and said: "If the young governor can see him in person, it is okay." ”

When Lu Jiu heard this, he smiled and said, "I can still help with this matter, don't worry." ”

Rebuilding also smiled when he heard it, he couldn't see Ding Feng, so Ding Wen was also available, Ding Feng was old, and now most of the affairs of the governor's mansion were made by the young governor Ding Wen, Ding Wen was the son of Ding Feng, and he was also passed on by Ding Feng, but he was praised from top to bottom, and he didn't talk more and ate together.

At this time, Gan Yi had already led the team into a lake in Denan County, the water surface was white mist, the cold was still not dissipating, and several small boats were moving quickly on the lake, not disturbed by the fog at all.

This big lake, which is not far from the edge, is comparable to a river in the north, but it is named after the lake in the south, because it is not far away from the big river, and compared with the big river, this water can only be called a lake.

Surrounded by mountains on both sides, the mountains are steep, and the local people know that there are thousands of water thieves on the islands deep in this lake, entrenched here, and it is not easy to encircle and suppress.

However, these water thieves knew the relationship very well, and knew that if they robbed the neighborhood, they would lose their roots, so they did not attack the place, but only intercepted the fleet.

In the past, the fleet was not local, and even if it was reported to the police, few people were able to track it down, so it was peaceful.

The people in the vicinity, because this group of water thieves have always only robbed foreign fleets, and many of their own children have joined the gang, which can be regarded as the collusion of thieves and people, forming a climate.

"It's a really good place." The Jinyi guards who first arrived here were very impressed by the beautiful scenery around them.

Although there are water thieves here, the surrounding scenery is very beautiful and pleasant, with weeping willows, sharp grass, and water vapor, and a faint smell of grass when you breathe.

"Mr. Gan, what are we going to do next when we get here?" The accompanying Jinyi Wei Baihu asked in a low voice, he couldn't call his position outside, and he was mostly called Mr. and Shopkeeper.

His eyes fell on the lake, and Gan Yi said: "Jiang Shun landed at the foot of the mountain on the other side of the lake, there is a boat coming, just take a boat, and then I can go alone, you are here to wait for my news." ”

Baihu can't let him go alone, he has protection, but also has the task of supervision, said: "Mr. Gan, you can't go alone, what's wrong here, the little one's life is also explained here, but you can't bring more followers, but you also have to be accompanied, and the little one is willing to go with you." ”

"In that case, then you and I will go over alone, and the rest of us will wait here for news!" Gan Yi said instructed.

"No." The crowd responded.

Gan Yi headed towards a stronghold in the depths of the lake, and the hundred households followed.

Around the lake, there are naturally the eyes and strongholds of this water thief, and as soon as Gan Yi said it, some people immediately understood it and went on the boat to report.

It is said that Jiang Shun was patrolling the stockade in the island, and saw that the island was not big, only three or four square kilometers, but there were dozens of boats and more than 1,000 men.

After the New Year, I was going to send some people to rob some property and come back for the spring, and at this time, someone came in to report: "Great boss, someone is asking to see you on the shore, you can see ......"

"Who is it? You want to come to see me, what is it? Jiang Shun asked.

"Big boss, that person said that his name is Gan Yi, and there is another one, it should be his entourage."

"Brother Gan Yi? He's coming? Hurry up and please. As soon as he heard this name, Jiang Shunxi was overjoyed and immediately commanded.

A clipper, on order, quickly went out.

Half an hour later, the clipper returned, and two people came in with the water thieves, led by Gan Yi.

When Jiang Shun saw it, he greeted him with a smile: "Brother Gan, I won't hide it from you, at the end of last year, brother, I went to the city to look for you to join the gang, but I pounced, I heard that you left suddenly two years ago, and the whole family moved, I have been worried about it, I don't know where you went, big brother?" But there's a place to stay? ”

"Brother Jiang, you know, since the defeat of the Northern Expedition in the first battle, I am no longer in office, and I have no treatment, three years ago, when I was in hardship, I was appreciated by the Lord and recommended to join the Han Dynasty, and now I am the general of the Navy Division in the Han Kingdom, and I continue to train the Water Division, I was in a hurry at that time, and I failed to say a word to my brother, it was my fault." Gan Yi sighed and said directly.

"Big brother has become a general?" Jiang Shun was taken aback, his eyes showed a look of envy, he thought about it, and said: "I heard here that the Han Kingdom is amazing, the current Han Emperor, only a few years of work, the Northern Expedition was completed, entered Chang'an, and captured Xiangyang, the eldest brother can make a future in the Han Kingdom, become a general, speaking of which, it is really enviable!" ”

As soon as he heard this, Gan Yi knew that there was a play, smiled, and asked first: "On the way here, I heard that last year, the king of Liang, Sun Yi, actually won the throne, do you know the situation?" Are there any Zhou Lang brothers in it? What kind of official is he now? ”

When Jiang Shun said this, his face was full of anger, and he snorted: "It's Zhou Lang, I don't know them very well, if I wasn't worried about you, big brother, I wouldn't be too lazy to inquire about their situation." "Love Chinese Net

"The last time I connected the relationship, this week Lang has been a captain, and he also entrusted me to get some military exploits, I think we all have some relationship, and I have a colleague with my eldest brother, so I helped, but the result is that he is recruited and called.

If you say something nice to you today, you will kick it away tomorrow, and you will gain nothing, but you will lose some brothers, and it will not be pleasant to think about it! ”

Jiang Shun said angrily: "Later, you want me to be a team leader like this kind of petty official, what's the point of doing it?" It's better to be a water thief! ”

Obviously, this Jiang Shun also used to connect with the Jingzhou Sailor, but there are only fifty people in one team, and the Sailor is also a boat, how can he agree?

There are thousands of brothers, not to mention the strength, even Zhao'an, you have to take care of it, right?

lost his brother to become an official, what should I do with my brother who has been with me for more than ten years?

"What my brother said, in the past few decades, it's okay to be a water thief, after all, in troubled times, no one can take care of you, but now the situation, you still don't know?"

"It's not our turn to say this day, but it won't take two years, I'm afraid that this Jingzhou will be pacified, and then, brother, you have thousands of water thieves, how can you tolerate the world? If you are still on the river, I am afraid that you will be surrounded and suppressed by the new master. ”

"This is not a poor country, it is near the trade route, that is, at this time of war, the trade route is cut off, but if someone really exterminates it, you are two thousand people who dare to fight, in the face of the power of a country, how can you resist? Even if there are more people, how long can they resist? ”

Listening to Gan Yi's words, Jiang Shun was stunned, thought about it carefully, and felt that what Gan Yi said was indeed the case, but this person almost understood what Gan Yi meant, so he shouted: "Big brother, what should I do with my younger brother, do you want to go to Zhou Lang?" Last time, Zhou Lang was only willing to get a team, but now I have offended him, I am afraid that I am willing to go to the younger brother, but I just threw myself into the net and became a war achievement. ”

"It's to find a relationship and defect to Ding Dudu, but Du Du can tolerate the two thousand people under me, but he may not be able to tolerate the younger brother, this is a precedent, the previous defection to the past several mountain bandits and water thieves, all of them have been incorporated into the water army, the big bosses in it, the dead are dead, the depreciated, and none of them have good fruit to eat!"

Seeing this, Gan Yi also said directly: "What do you think of the big man?" ”

Although Jiang Shun had expected it, his body was still shocked, and he asked, "Big brother, do you mean to let the younger brother take someone to vote for the big man?" ”

This is counted, it's really a good deal, such as the four kingdoms today, the Wei country is far away from Liaodong, how can it not be reached, and then there is no way to look down on it, the Jin country has been defeated again and again, although the foundation is thick, it is likely to be cannon fodder, Wu is not as good as the Jin country, or the Han Dynasty, the emperor is young, and he has won consecutive battles, and he has taken refuge in the Han Dynasty, and he will be crowned with his wife and son in the future, which is also a matter of scenery?

Jiang Shun is not very ambitious, otherwise he would not have brought 2,000 people, and he can stay here for more than ten years, and he has not made a big incident to provoke encirclement and suppression, so he knows that this person is not ambitious.

"Can the Great Han Kingdom want our little water thief?"

Thinking of the mountain bandits and water thieves who were recruited in Jingzhou, when they arrived in the city, they were all submissive, and those who were in charge not only did not win the wealth, but their brothers were divided into pieces, and they had no power in their hands, and they were beheaded at any time when someone found a factor.

Even if he is interested in leaning on a certain big family, he will do some unsightly things, as soon as he thinks of this, Jiang Shun's heart that has just warmed up will suddenly cool.

Gan Yi saw Jiang Shun's face change, suddenly happy, suddenly gloomy, knew what he thought, and sighed: "I know your concerns, but I can use people regardless of their background, talent and virtue, and your worries are really unnecessary." ”

"I came this time to persuade you to train the navy army with me at the behest of His Majesty, in this regard, you have the talent to be displayed, and your brothers can also fight for a future, how can it be better than being a water thief here?"

"Since Your Majesty took the initiative to send me to persuade you, it is to attach importance to you, why should you worry that you will fall into the footsteps of those people? Besides, besides, now that the general of the Navy Division is me, are you still afraid that I will be unfavorable to you? ”

Hearing this, Jiang Shun was immediately moved, indeed, he didn't believe in those princes, he always believed in Gan Yi, and besides, this was the emperor personally sent someone to invite him, this sincerity alone was enough.

"Big brother, you don't need to say more, I don't believe in others, don't I believe you? I'll take my brother with you, it's a big deal, just give up this life! ”

In this era, the state of Wu has now lost trust, but the state of Han has not, not to mention the emperor of the Han dynasty, which is not comparable to the small country of Eastern Wu.

This made Gan Yi, who was carrying a lot of money, unable to use the Dafa of scattering coins, so he easily persuaded an important target, but Gan Yi still left some money, after all, he still had to settle down, and since the funds were approved, it was not good if it didn't cost much!

At this time, he was also doing things in the city, and at this time he arrived at a Taoist temple, where there were many believers and the incense was very prosperous.

Heavy correction and the Taoist chief inside,Playing chess.。

The place where the chess game was played was in the back courtyard, where a large tree was planted, and the scenery was quite good, and after a while, suddenly, a group of people came in.

The first person saw the Taoist priest playing chess, and came over with a "huh" sound, and watched the chess here.

Rebuilding a son, but his heart was shocked, his eyes flashed, and he saw a golden cloud, which diffused and filled the entire courtyard.

Rebuilding his calm demeanor, he glanced at the chess game, and suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed: "Dao Chief, I can win you this time." ”

The long on the opposite side didn't believe it, bowed his head and continued to count, no more, no less, black chess was one more than white chess, he couldn't help but smile, raised and saw the person behind him, was startled, and hurriedly stood up: "Jian is a slow nobleman, please sit down, watch tea!" ”

The man laughed and said, "It's all right! ”

He looked down at the chess game again, and said with a smile: "This Taoist chess skill is good, come, I will also have a game with you." ”

So saying, he sat down on the opposite side.

Re-repaired "oh", looked at the other party a few times justifiably, lowered his head and dialed the chess pieces into the two bowls, and said, "Do you hold black or white?" ”

"Let's make a confession!" The man said.

Re-cultivation smiled lightly, stepped forward to hold on to the sunspot, and began to play chess.

An attendant in the back followed, opening his mouth to speak, but was stopped by this person, and then the two behind looked at each other, so they had to wait.

The young man in front of him, twenty-seven or eighteen years old, wearing a silver crown on his head, wearing a moonlight long-sleeved wide shirt, his face was like a bright moon, the bridge of his nose was high, and the heavenly court was full.

At first glance, the surface of the rebuild is silent, but in fact it is shocking.

I saw that this person's golden clouds formed a layer of canopy, layer by layer of clouds, flowing down from time to time, and rising, if you look carefully, you can also see a trace of purple gas hidden in it, looming.

Looking at its physiognomy again, the phoenix eyes and silkworm eyebrows, the ear chakras are like pearls, the heavenly court is full, and it is almost impossible to find any broken appearance.

Rebuild sighed in his heart, in this world, there are dragons everywhere.
