Chapter 017: Supervising the grain meets Zhou Lang
Long Xiang said goodbye to Han Yin and returned to the camp, and then summoned Feng Zhong and Tang Yu to discuss, these two people are now rising and have been promoted from official to Quhou.
"Uncle Yu, I have already agreed with Han Yin, wait until it gets dark, you will take people to the dock, and let the soldiers choose good armor and good weapons. Long Xiang confessed to Tang Yu.
Tang Yu clenched his fists and replied: "Yunqi rest assured, I will be foolproof." ”
"Very good, Uncle Zhong..."
Long Xiang was about to discuss with Feng Zhong, but Tang Yu interrupted and asked, "Yunqi, since you have decided to stretch out your black hand, do you want to take more?" ”
"This..."Long Xiang hesitated.
Feng Zhong also patted him on the shoulder and encouraged: "Old Tang is reasonable, anyway, Lu Bu can't collect enough, let's just get enough money." ”
Long Xiang pondered for a while, and finally made up his mind: "Then take two sets per person, make up enough for eight hundred, and leave some for Lu Bu, otherwise Han Yin will not be able to explain." ”
"Listen to you." After Tang Yu finished speaking, he walked out of the barracks and waited to go to the dock to pick up the goods in the evening.
Long Xiang turned his head and continued to ask Feng Zhong: "Uncle Zhong, when will the orphan that the little nephew asked you to contact can leave?" ”
"You can do it at any time, but you really want to move to Hefei?" Feng Zhong asked Long Xiang again to confirm.
Because Hefei is adjacent to the north of Chaohu Lake, there are often floods raging around, and the plague is rampant in various places in the late Han Dynasty, and the people of Hefei are walking and dying, and now it is almost an empty city, Feng Zhong does not understand why Long Xiang did the opposite.
Long Xiang Zhengse affirmed: "Such a large amount of grain, hoarding elsewhere is easy to be noticed, the empty city of Hefei is just right, you let them set off tomorrow, and when the Lujiang army food is collected, the time may be just right." ”
"Okay, hoard in Hefei for the time being, with the wisdom of Yunqi, it will definitely be properly transferred in the future..."Feng Zhong nodded in response.
Long Xiang smiled slightly, and said in his heart that the Hefei in your impression is different from my impression, it is the land of Zhang Liao and others, and it is also Sun Quan's happy city.
As for the Chaohu Lake flood that Feng Zhong was worried about, Long Xiang didn't pay attention to it at all, the local flood was not as difficult to treat as the Yellow River flood, as long as the river channel was dredged and the flood diversion was done, fertile soil might be formed around it, and these projects were not much technically difficult in the eyes of civil engineering people.
In the early morning of the next day, Long Xiang led the cavalry first and went straight to Lu'an County in Lujiang.
Feng Zhong led his foot soldiers to follow, and took care of his comrades and families who went south, and he agreed with Long Xiang to meet on the south bank of Shaobi (lake).
The counties of Lujiang are bounded by Lu'an, and the five counties of Yangquan, Tatexian, Anfeng, Anfeng, and Yanlou in the north are all connected to waterways, which can transport grain out by ship, saving a large number of people as servitude, while in the south of Anhui County, Juchao, Shuxian and other places, all need to transport grain to Lu'an by land and then load it on ships.
When Long Xiang led the cavalry to Shaobi, all the grain ships from the five counties in the north of the Lujiang River were anchored in Shaobi and other places to receive them.
When Feng Zhong led the rear army to Shaobi, Long Xiang handed over the received grain ship, and secretly ordered Feng Zhong to unload the ship and load the truck every night, and gather with the families of the soldiers who went south, secretly transfer the grain to the south of Shaobi and hide it, and then transport it to Hefei in the form of ants moving.
After settling everything in Shaobei, Long Xiang led the cavalry to Lu'an to supervise the grain.
In the next half month, the grain trucks in the south of Lujiang County arrived at the six installation ships on a county-by-county basis, and the grain ships then went to Shaobi to gather on standby, and were finally transferred off the ship by Feng Zhong, running in an orderly manner like a flowing water operation.
Long Xiang took the list of Yan Xiang's grain transfers, and verified with each county that came to pay the grain, and by the end of August, there was only one county left in Juchao, and the last 5,000 Hu had not been delivered.
Seeing that the time was approaching September, Long Xiang was worried that if it dragged on any longer, Yuan Shu would definitely urge Ji Ling to send troops, and at that time, if Shouchun sent someone to supervise and ask, maybe he would still show his stuffing, so he had the idea of waiting.
Just as Long Xiang hesitated, Tang Yu suddenly called Ma to report that Yan Juchao's grain truck had been transported to the south of Lu'an and would soon arrive at the water wharf.
Long Xiang fell to the ground with a big stone in his heart, pointed forward with a horsewhip in his hand, and said: "Please lead the way ahead, the little nephew must personally ask why their nest has been postponed here, and can they afford to delay the military aircraft?" ”
"Yui." After Tang Yu clasped his fists and saluted, he immediately pulled the reins of the horse and turned around.
Dozens of elite horsemen galloped, and soon came to the side of the nest grain team, watching the grain truck move forward unhurriedly, Long Xiang's anger did not come to one place.
Long Xiang frowned and gave Tang Yu a look, and Tang Yu raised his horsewhip and fell into the air, scolding in a 'fox and fake tiger': "Where is your person in charge?" It seems that such a turtle is marching at such a speed, no wonder it is the last county to be delivered, if the lord's major affairs are delayed, you will also suffer the sin. ”
"Really?" In the grain transportation team in the rear, a young man in a white robe and silver armor suddenly walked out.
Long Xiang looked at the horse, and saw that the man had a slender body, sword eyebrows and starry eyes, and a face like a crown of jade, standing in the crowd, like a crane in a flock of chickens, with a dazzling appearance, completely the mold of the male protagonist.
The man frowned and stared at Long Xiang, his eyes were full of wisdom and rebelliousness, as if he had finished the draft late.
"Who are you?" Tang Yu was obviously shocked by the other party's handsomeness, and the momentum of the question was obviously weakened compared to just now.
"I am the nest chief Zhou Yu in your mouth, I don't know what crime you want to punish me?"
"Zhou Yu? You..."
"Uncle, stand down."
If it weren't for Zhou Yu's self-reported home, Long Xiang wouldn't have guessed that it was Zhou Yu when he scratched his head, in the Three Kingdoms series of games he played, shouldn't this person belong to Sun Ce's forces? Why was he an official in Yuan Shu's territory at this time? Was it my presence that influenced the development of history, or was it the original history that it was?
In fact, Zhou Yu's father Zhou Shang was the Taishou of Danyang, and he stayed in Danyang for a long time, and later Sun Ce borrowed troops from Yuan Shu to cross the river to help Sun Ben, Wu Jing and Liu Xuan fight, and Zhou Yu fought with Sun Ce during this period.
Yuan Shu sent his cousin Yuan Yin to replace Zhou Shang, Zhou Shang took Zhou Yu back to Shouchun, Zhou Yu was soon appointed as the head of the nest, in fact, before Sun Ce and Yuan Shu broke up, the Sun family was as subordinate to Yuan Shu as Sun Jian, and the last three points of the Wu territory of the world is actually the epitome of Yuan Shu's power, and Eastern Wu is the continuation of Yuan Shu's power.
Since the person in front of him is Zhou Yu, it is not something that Tang Yu can deal with, Long Xiang decisively stopped Tang Yu, and immediately dismounted and hugged his fists and said: "It turned out to be Zhou Gongjin, who has heard the name of Jun for a long time." ”
"Do you know you?" Zhou Yu frowned and returned the salute, only to see his eyes roll, and immediately asked: "Could it be Long Yunqi who rode back to Zhang Fei alone?" ”
"Ashamed, ashamed..."Long Xiao smiled and nodded, completely forgetting that he was here to 'rejuvenate the teacher to ask for guilt', until Tang Yu next to him reminded him with a coughing voice, and the smile on his face turned serious.
Long Xiang was unknown before, and it was only this year that he made a name for himself in Yuan Shujun's army, and Zhou Yu learned that there was such a teenager under Qiao Rui in his recent correspondence with Zhou Shang.
Zhou Yu retorted and said: "Long Sima is here to ask about the crime? ”
