Day 27 The first test of the water dragon
When Shen Minghuang and the others came to Longbao Temple again in a few days, Master Suxin was already waiting for them. The passage mage was not wrong at all, she was really a dynamite temper, and when she received the letter, she thought it was troublesome to write a reply, so she actually led the disciples in the nunnery and ran here by boat in person. After hearing Shen Minghuang say something about pirates, she immediately said, "Your Highness has made careful arrangements. The Weijia army came all the way from Haixi to defend our Qiantang, how could we Qiantang people not help but do their part! This killing thieves and protecting the territory is a great good deed, and the Buddha will definitely not blame it! ”
Wei Yangyang's favorite is such a cheerful person, so when Shen Minghuang asked her to teach the masters of the nunnery how to use the water dragon, she tried her best. She made it clear where the masters should start, where they should dock with the water dragons, where the enemy ships would pass, and when they would be able to pull the lead. But she was afraid of breaking the rules of Buddhism, so she never asked more than teaching about war.
In the past few days, after coming into contact with the masters of the nunnery, she has learned a lot about Master Suxin. Master Suxin's mother was humiliated by the village bullies and hanged herself, and her younger brother starved to death because he had no milk to eat. The bully didn't give up and wanted to catch her back to be a roommate, but her childhood sweetheart's lover wanted to fight with the bully's family, and he was also killed. The mage and his father, who died young, learned some kung fu and pretended to be obedient, and when the bully wanted to have sex with her, he risked his life, killed the bully, set the house on fire, destroyed the other party's door, and ran to Jinghang Nunnery to become a monk.
Because she had entered the empty door, and the bully was indeed at fault first, the government did not behead her. But although she is already a disciple of Buddhism, she still has the same temperament, often run to the street, see a villain bullying a single woman, so she beats the other party, and then sends the official, the nearby mountain people call her "Thunderbolt Bodhisattva".
Wei Yangyang knew that although she had a hot temper, she was the same as herself, she would not be angry with people casually, and she was an extremely close person. So I couldn't help but ask her, "Master, if you destroy the enemy, will the Buddha surpass them?" Master Su Xin said: "The old man will do what Buddhist disciples should do, and after blowing them up, give them excess." But whether the Buddha is willing to surpass them depends on the mood of the Buddha. ”
Wei Yangyang agreed with her words very much, and nodded desperately: "Yes, yes, yes, I have heard that saving someone's life is better than creating a seventh-level Buddha." If he defeated the pirates and didn't know how many lives of the coastal people were saved, then the mage would be tantamount to creating hundreds of layers of thousands of layers of Buddhas. She smiled again, raised the sword in her hand and said, "The mage's idea is the same as mine's Virtue Sword." ”
Mage Suxin drew her knife, which was glistening cold, apparently made of fine steel. The scabbard was inlaid with fifteen blue gems, indicating that she was fifteen years old and from the blue camp. The mage was full of praise for the knife and said, "Good knife! There is no good knife in ten thousand. Wei Yangyang smiled: "It was given to me by my third brother." The mage asked, "Why is it so strangely named?" It's called "Yide"? Wei Yang replied: "Serve people with virtue." When I held it up to people's necks, no one dared to disobey, and everyone was willing to obey. And my starling's knife is called "Yihe", and harmony is precious. ”
Shen Minghuang was originally standing behind them, watching Yu Jingxian transform the dragon. Hearing her say this, I almost burst into laughter. The sons and daughters of King Wei Yama used a pair of knives, one of which was "to convince people with virtue" and the other was to "value peace". He really can't see the Wei brothers and sisters horizontally and vertically, where is there "virtue" and where is "harmony"?
The news of their sightseeing in Qiantang was naturally sent to Wang Chengdan in a steady stream. Moreover, the stalker also reported that Shen Minghuang also found out the evidence of Qian Zhifu's crimes during the date, and revealed his identity to kill the prefect's yamen and punish Qian Zhifu. Although this expulsion of pirates is important, it is only a small battle for the Great Yang Kingdom. What really shakes the country's foundation is the officials who deceive their superiors and subordinates. found out the Qian Governor's Mansion, and pulled out hundreds of his relatives and friends, which should be the main purpose of King Fengquan's visit to Jiangnan this time.
One hundred masters of Jinghang Nunnery lived in the Longbao Monastery and trained day and night. Before they became monks, they were all poor women who were bullied and looked down upon everywhere. There are those whose husbands have died and who have no sons, and who have been driven out of their homes by their people; Some were persecuted by evil mothers-in-law and beaten to the point of cripplement; There are also pixel heart mages like this, who are oppressed by high-ranking people and have broken families.
But now, with the invasion of foreign enemies, they, as women, can also contribute to the court. On weekdays, he was chivalrous and righteous, but he could only save one or two people, but now he stepped forward to protect the people of the city. This opportunity has not been available in a hundred years, so everyone is working hard, for fear that they will be held back because of themselves.
Because explosives are scarce, they only train in the water with bamboo poles every day. It was naturally common for a group of nuns to practice solo bamboo rafting in the mountain stream, so the spies who kept an eye on Shen Minghuang did not pay attention to them. They only knew that King Fengquan took the youngest daughter of Wei Zongbing and ate vegetarian food a few times in Longbao Temple.
Half a month later, Master Suxin and their skills were perfect, and Yu Jingxian took out a water dragon and asked them to try it. In order to blow up the enemy ship, the water dragon cut the thickest bamboo pole on the mountain, which contained a lot of explosives and was extremely powerful.
Wei Yangyang first talked about the power generated by the explosion of explosives, and then asked: Which master wants to try it in the water? Master Su Xin said: "I'm the host, I'll come!" She was in her early fifties, but she was not afraid, and first put the dragon in the river, and then held a bamboo pole in her hand, and put her feet on the dragon, and the dragon floated downstream along the river. Light as a swallow, she walked through the mountains and gradually approached a small boat that had been placed in the river for a long time. A mile from the boat, she jumped into the water and pushed the dragon forward with both hands.
Ten feet from the boat, she pulled out a bamboo knot at the top of the water dragon, pulled the lead, and plunged headlong into the water.
The fuse ignited in the bamboo knot, and did not get wet, and then sped forward and crashed into the boat, and after knocking the boat crookedly, the explosives exploded, and after an earth-shattering sound, half the boat was blown away!
The onlookers standing on the shore were both happy and worried, and everyone looked at the water and began to search for the whereabouts of Zen Master Suxin.
After waiting for a while, Zen Master Suxin came out of the water from a mile away from the boat, and when she saw that half of the boat was left, she exclaimed, "What a great power!" Then, she found another bamboo pole that was not loaded with explosives, grabbed it, and swam back upstream.
She told everyone about her experience of this operation: "When I went, I went by the method of solo bamboo rafting, which saved my physical strength, and when I returned, I could insist on swimming back to the shore as long as I grabbed the bamboo pole or the broken plank." After unplugging the lead, do not hesitate to plunge into the water immediately regardless of whether the lead ignites or not, so that you can avoid injury. ”
And Shen Minghuang discussed with Yu Jingxian how many water dragons are needed to blow out a hole in the pirate ship?
Yu Jingxian said affirmatively: "Eighty." Shen Minghuang said: "Okay, in order to make sure that nothing goes wrong, use a hundred." ”
They were preparing in Qiantang, and Wei Bingyue and An Luo were not idle in Yongyin. After the two of them looked at the giant battleship, Wei Bingyue said: "An guerrilla, this battleship is really good, each one can carry one or two thousand soldiers, and there are thirty artillery firing bases on each side, my cavalry is itching when I see it." But in order to prevent the grass from startling the snakes, it is a pity that they cannot be transferred to Qiantang! ”
An Luo said: "Yes, we can only rely on the original thirty medium ships and fifty small boats of our Qiantang Naval Division, which is a bit overwhelming. But the big ones are good, and the small ones are good. At the border between Hangwan and the Qiantang River, the further upstream the river goes, the narrower it becomes, and as long as the pirates can be lured to Qiantang Mansion to go ashore, it will be difficult for their big ships to turn around. ”
Wei Bingyue thought for a while and asked, "An Guerrilla, have you ever fought in a group fight?" An Luo didn't know why he asked, "What? Wei Bingyue said: "We have many brothers, there are fifteen biological brothers, and there are more than 100 cousins. Boys are naughty, so the most common thing I did at home when I was a kid was to fight with them; When I grew up, the most common thing I did was to fight with the Shikoku Alliance. The main thing about fighting in a group is that you don't care about the others, catch one of them, and beat them to death. Beat him to death and you will be flat, and if you beat the second one to death, you will earn. The so-called indiscriminate punching to kill the master, no matter what the rules, first risk your life to fight the first one, if others dare not play like you, you will have a chance to win. ”
Although An Luo had a calm temper, he was also an experienced officer, and he immediately said: "General Wei is saying that when the time comes, no matter what else, he will only catch Xiao Diao'er's fleet and fight to the death?" Wei Bingyue didn't answer his question, and asked again: "If I cut down the water and sea alliance forces on land, and only let your sailors fight Xiao Diao'er's people in the river, what are your chances of winning?" ”
An Luo Zhengse said: "If I let the Qiantang Water Division only fight Xiao Diao'er, I promise that the enemy army will be completely annihilated." He thought for a moment and asked rhetorically, "But, we don't care about the snow butterfly or not?" Wei Bingyue said: "You don't have to worry about those two, our Wei family and them are feuds, leave it to me." You just have to identify Xiao Diao'er and eliminate the pirates. ”
Because the two went out on patrol in micro-clothes, they wore civilian clothes and chatted while walking in the mountains and forests. Suddenly, they heard a noise in the mountain pass ahead, and a group of people seemed to be arguing. The two of them and their entourage walked briskly forward, and saw that there were about a hundred people, divided into two factions. They were plainly dressed, carrying knives, kitchen knives, and even hoes in their hands, apparently local villagers. In the middle of the two factions lay a man and a woman, the man's beaten flesh blurred, and the woman's hair was scratched and scattered. Wei Bingyue couldn't understand what they were talking about, and asked, "An guerrilla, why did they gather crowds to beat people?" ”
An Luo listened for a while, his face was solemn and relaxed for a while, and then he smiled and said, "They are from two villages, and the wounded man lying in the middle is the husband of the woman standing on the left. But he hooked up with the woman who was lying down, and was caught by his wife. He thinks that it is nothing for a man to mess with flowers and grass outside, and he thinks his wife is nosy, so he beats his wife. This wife's maiden family was a big family in the village on the left, and she was not afraid of him at all, so she called a few of her maiden brothers over, beat him severely, and tied up the vixen as well. The people on the right were the villagers of the man's village, and when they saw the man being beaten by his brother-in-law, he felt that his husband was weak, so he also entangled people and prepared to teach the wife some lessons. ”
A man with three wives and four concubines is nothing. This man fornicated with the vixen, and beat his wife, and changed to the woman next to him, so he could only endure it silently. Unexpectedly, this wife was very brave, and she actually went back to her parents' house to gather dozens of brothers and prepare to join her in-law's family.
When Wei Bingyue heard this, he said, "Beat and beat, who let the man beat his wife first." In the future, if anyone marries my sister and dares to bully her, more than 100 of us cousins are afraid that we will beat my brother-in-law worse than this man. An Luo joked: "Who dares to beat your sister, does he still have the life to wait until your brother rushes to beat him?" Wei Bingyue nodded: "Well, what you said is reasonable." If it were my sister-in-law, she would never go to her mother's house to call someone first, but I was afraid that when we got the news, she would bury the bodies of her father-in-law, mother-in-law, and husband. ”
Although he said so, his heart was towards Wei Yang after all. He also thought about it very seriously, if the little pomegranate was bullied by his in-laws at that time, would he cut the other party into sections, or pieces, or strips? Well, it's better to cut it with one knife, cut three hundred or two hundred knives, so that his brother-in-law will never dare to bully his sister again.
An Luo said again: "We Yongyin people are short-tempered, and we will fight if we don't agree with each other. Fights between the two villages are common. Wei Bingyue's heart moved, and said: "An guerrilla, you train the sailor, you can recruit troops from here." This wife is so strong, if it is a man, with a little training, the combat effectiveness will definitely not be bad! ”
Anluo asked, "Oh? I'm used to it, General Wei really thinks that the people from these two villages are fighting very well? ”
Wei Bingyue said: "I grew up in the Blue Camp and have seen too many tough people. I always thought that the northerners were brave and the southerners were elegant, but now it seems that I was wrong. You can start recruiting troops now, and train them with the formation of our Wei family, and I guarantee that in less than a year, they will definitely be the best army in the two counties of Lingzhejiang!" ”
* Since the prefect of Qian was punished and the Miss Wei family was happy, King Fengquan's goal was achieved, and he returned to Gusu. Wang Chengdan summarized all the information he had collected, Wei Bingyue and An settled in Yongyin to recruit soldiers, with Wei Bingyue to help train soldiers, Yongyin must not go; King Fengquan went out to play, and he didn't even bring his bodyguard Sheng Huaiyan, only the daughter of the guard, so naturally he didn't want to be disturbed; Qian Zhifu was arrested, his hometown was from Chang County, Gusu Prefecture, and Shen Minghuang also sent someone to his hometown to investigate thoroughly.
Qiantang is almost an empty city, and Xiao Diaoer can be notified to attack Qiantang. Let this pirate rob it again, and you will get more silver. But I can't help but give face to King Fengquan, wait for Xiao Diao'er to come out next month, and take advantage of his unpreparedness to completely eliminate him. In this way, you can get promoted and get rich. Xiao Diao'er was supported by himself, and he could only be eliminated by himself, he would eventually die, but he must not die in the hands of the Wei family, let Wei Bingyue take the credit.
