Chapter 489: Watery
Lin Shuigen saw that Yinba was injured and walked slowly, and Zhuang Rou was also moving slowly with Zhuang Rou supporting it, and he had already helped block the three attacks that came out.
After thinking that it was not a way to go on like this, he took a deep look at Yinba's burly body, dismounted and said, "Miss Zhuang, let it ride my horse, so that you can go faster." β
Monkey riding?
Zhuang Rou looked at him stunned, and Yinba couldn't understand it, so she also followed her to look at Lin Shuigen.
Saying this, Lin Shuigen also felt stupid, he stubbornly said: "It's too slow to go like this, I think it's so humane, why don't you try it?" β
He didn't want to communicate too much with the black beast, the palm seemed to be bigger than his face, and if he grabbed his neck, it would be all over.
Zhuang Rou thought that it seemed that this was the only way, she pointed to the horse in embarrassment and said to Yinba: "Yinba, how about you ride this?" β
Thinking that she was going to kill the horse herself, Silverlord endured the pain and let out a low threatening voice at the horse.
"No, it's not!" Zhuang Rou hurriedly waved his hand, got on the horse to show it, and pointed at it for a long time after coming down.
Finally, Yinba understood.
It had only ridden in a carriage, but had never ridden a horse, dragging its body to ride clumsily on the horse with the help of Zhuang Rou and Lin Shuigen.
Although the horse was strong, it frightened the big fellow, and wanted to overturn it, but he was afraid of its breath, and his body trembled with fear.
Looking at Yinba on a horse, Zhuang Rou couldn't look at it directly, pursed her lips and said helplessly: "Let's hurry over, this is simply ......"
Lin Shuigen also felt that his horse was too pitiful, and pulled the reins to appease him for a long time before leading the horse all the way back to the station.
When they came, they rode fast horses, and when they went back, they led the horses and trotted, and the two ran for nearly an hour, and just outside a remote village, Mo Zuo came back with a great victory.
He glanced at Zhuang Rou and Lin Shuigen, who were sweating profusely outside the village, and was very disgusted, "Look at your stupid appearance, it's really stupid." After laughing at him, he rode away.
Zhuang Rou rolled her eyes, looked at Lin Shuigen, who was also ridiculed, and said, "Your general is really funny, like a child." β
"Hehe, he's not usually like that." Lin Shuigen could only smile bitterly, he couldn't explain anything, the general's current behavior was indeed naΓ―ve.
"Let's let it come down first, and you can use it here as well." Seeing that the horse was too tired, Lin Shuigen asked Yinba to come down.
In fact, Yinba didn't want to ride any horse at all, and the wounds on his body hurt for a while, and he was always worried about falling, and he was so nervous that his whole body stiffened.
Now seeing Zhuang Rou's gesture, it immediately jumped off the horse and quickly ran to her side.
Lin Shuigen took the two of them to the entrance of the village, there was a very dense bamboo fence around the outside of the village, although it was not as strong as the city wall, but the small bamboo branches on it had not been cut off, and if someone really tried to turn it over, there would definitely be a disturbance.
Zhuang Rou knew at a glance that the bamboo fence was newly built, but the village looked old and had existed here for a long time.
Maybe it's the place that Mo Zuogang occupied, after all, the rebels are catching strong men, and it is said that if there is a block, they will slaughter the village, which is very inhumane.
But when she entered the village, Zhuang Rou saw a few children running by, happily following the soldiers, and excitedly looking at the weapons on their bodies.
But when they suddenly saw Yinba, the children pounced again, curious but afraid to approach, and they were all whispering to the side to guess what kind of beast it was.
There are still some women and old people in the village, who are helping the soldiers to do some laundry and cooking, and the village is full of old and young women and cripples, but there is not a single adult man.
It seems that this is a village that has been arrested by strong men, whether it is voluntary or not, but such a village can at least have a bite to eat if they follow Mo Zuo and them.
Look at these children's happy and happy looks, although they have a dish-faced face, you know that life is not bad.
Lin Shuigen led Zhuang Rou to a room and asked Yinba to recuperate here, but the woman in this house didn't dare to approach Yinba, so she went directly to the neighbor's house to live.
"Thank you, Brother Lin, just leave it to me Yinba, you can go and get busy." Zhuang Rou thanked Lin Shuigen, and let Yinba lie on the bed and get busy.
The wound has to be retreated, and it has to find something to eat, don't look at the silver bully looks like a monkey, it wants to eat meat.
Only by eating meat can you recover quickly.
While dealing with the wound, Lin Shuigen came over again, and brought a pot of bones with meat, "This is an enemy horse, it is too seriously injured to live, everyone has shared the meat to eat." You have a big guy here, and you deliberately gave you an extra big bone, and we can't get fruits and vegetables in the winter. β
"Does it eat meat?" He was still a little puzzled, the monkey seemed to have been eating fruit and other things, although this one looked like a monkey, but it could really grow so strong without eating meat?
Zhuang Rou hurriedly took it, "Eat, it was originally meant to eat meat." β
"Then I'll go first, Miss Zhuang, if you still need anything, just come to me, it's the largest courtyard in the middle of the village." Lin Shuigen scratched his head and said, only sighing in his heart, it's not that he wants to marry someone else, how can he let himself do this.
"Actually, our general is a good man, and he asked me to do this."
Mo Zuo has such cronies by his side, it is really embarrassing for him, of course Zhuang Rou knows that Mo Zuo does not agree, where does Lin Shuigen dare to bring her here.
She nodded and said seriously: "It's really troublesome Brother Lin, I will go and thank General Mo in person in a while." β
Lin Shuigen breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good." β
When the people left, Zhuang Rou also helped Yinba re-medicate the wound before handing over the meat and bones, and it grabbed the bones and gnawed them.
"Hello stay here, don't go out and scare others, let alone hurt the people here." Zhuang Rou grabbed its hand holding the meat and bones, and explained cautiously.
Yinba stared at her in a daze, didn't use the cage to lock it up, that is, it was good for it, and in order to gnaw the bones early, he hurriedly agreed to hum.
Zhuang Rou took the door and went out, with meat and bones, it should be able to eat and sleep.
After walking around the village, she smiled when she saw that the villagers were eating the soft and rotten horse skins that had been cooked for an unknown amount of time.
She came to the courtyard that Lin Shuigen said, which used to be the home of the village chief or Li Zheng, with five large tiled houses and a courtyard, which looked very grand in the village.
These soldiers who followed Mo Zuo all knew Zhuang Rou, and when they saw her coming, they didn't stop her, and let her walk into the courtyard by herself.
As soon as she arrived at the door, she heard a fierce quarrel inside, Zhuang Rou stood at the door, anyway, she didn't mean to eavesdrop, she felt that maybe people were talking about something important, and it was not good to go in if she had nothing to do.
Mo Zuo didn't know who she was arguing with, and her voice was so loud that she couldn't pretend she didn't hear it.
"I have to take it no matter what, you told me that it is not possible to break through head-on, and it is not possible to take the waterway, so I can't wait for the rebels to send me a pier!"
"General, there are mountains on both sides of Huiyuwan, and behind it is a river bay, which is a gourd mouth. It is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the rebels stationed there are well defended, so we can only sneak attack and not attack. Now there is a shortage of manpower, and we can't afford to lose casualties! β
"And as soon as we attack, they will release carrier pigeons, and the nearest county will know that we are attacking Huiyuwan. The county town has already been taken by the rebels, and their purpose is the same as ours, to take the docks and roads first. β
"If we are blocked by Jiqing County outside Huiyuwan, we will have to be completely annihilated, and there will be nowhere to escape."
Mo Zuo hated the four words of annihilation of the whole army the most, which reminded him of the events of the year, he slapped the table and said: "Then take the waterway!" β
"Waterway...... Countless fishing nets were placed in the water outside the pier, and it was impossible to dive into it, either on the surface or underwater. There are a lot of us who know how to water, but only Lin Shuigen has good water properties, even if he can sneak in alone, he can't open the city gate! β
"What is this called! If you can't get the wharf, you won't be able to get military funds, I'm afraid you can't even guarantee military rations, and how can you relieve the siege of Hongzhou! Mo Zuo looked at the map drawn on the cowhide and scolded fiercely.
At this time, Zhuang Rou walked in from outside the door, looked at him and said, "I'll go with Brother Lin, I'm good at water." β
