Chapter 90: Brother Cong, why haven't you come back!
On the dockside of Shao Bozhen, Liu Ke's warships transferred from the Yamen of Caoyun, the governor of Caoyun, had begun to move in an orderly manner.
Jia Cong changed into an ordinary power suit, hung the Yanling knife on his waist, packed up the slingshot and stone bullets, and even asked for a small hand crossbow and put it on his left wrist.
After the hatch was pushed open, Daiyu was standing outside the door worriedly, and Mama Wang was standing far away at the corner, guarding aside.
"Sister Lin......
"Can you not go? With the prince and the second brother Lian, there is no reason for you to take risks as a child in the matter of suppressing bandits."
Daiyu's hands clenched tightly on her sleeves, her teeth biting lightly, and her originally delicate face was slightly pale.
Her body trembled slightly, and her emaciated figure seemed to be even more desolate in the evening when it gradually dimmed.
Yes, the two most important men in her life, tonight at the same time to fight a fierce enemy, who can guarantee that they will be foolproof?
Jia Cong felt that his heart was pinched hard by a pair of invisible big hands, and it hurt, but he endured it.
He untied the Yanling knife hanging from his waist, grabbed Daiyu's hand, and placed it in the palm of her hand.
"Sister Lin, do you remember that night in Huai'an Mansion? This knife is me, let it accompany you, and wait for me to come back with peace of mind."
Jia Cong stepped forward to hug Daiyu, sniffed deeply at the unique body fragrance of the girl in his arms, and whispered in his ear, "I haven't taken a roll call outside Donghua Gate yet, and I am married to Sister Lin."
Daiyu stiffened, and in an instant, she leaned softly on Jia Cong's body.
Since she entered Beijing from Yangzhou, it seems that Jia Cong is likely to be absent every time she is happy, but whenever she is wronged, sad, or in trouble, it is always Brother Cong who first appears by her side to give her warmth.
Just like this hug, when she was worried about her father and her future little father-in-law, the warm hug dispelled the chill in her heart.
"Everything has me!"
These are what Jia Cong said when he left!
Daiyu stood at the bow of the ship with the Yanling knife in her arms, watching the warship leave the dock in Shao Bo Town from a distance.
The last afterglow of the setting sun shone on the jade handle of the Yanling knife, and the shimmer shone brightly, making Daiyu seem to be glowing.
Mama Wang stood with her girl for a long time, and finally sighed secretly, stepped forward and put the cloak in her hand on Daiyu's body.
"Girl, it's getting dark, let's go back to the cabin first. Third Master Cong will be back tomorrow, in case the girl catches a cold and gets sick, wouldn't it make Third Master Cong worry?"
Daiyu smiled reluctantly, hugged the imperial knife in her hand tightly, turned around and said, "Mama is right, Brother Cong'er will come back tomorrow, and then we will go back to Yangzhou to reunite with Daddy."
……
"What? Still thinking about your little wife?"
Liu Ke walked to Jia Cong's side, the first prince in the capital didn't have a shelf at all, and sat on the deck beside Jia Cong.
The waves across the stern of the boat seemed to carry Jia Cong's heart that landed on Daiyu's side, flashing and sparkling.
Jia Cong corrected the mistake in Liu Ke's words: "It's my fiancée, I haven't been admitted to Tanhualang yet, and after I take the roll call in front of the emperor, Sister Lin will really become my wife!"
The little fat man is still childish, but his words are solemn. ….
Liu Ke smiled and handed Jia Cong a piece of jerky in his hand.
"Taste, made."
He took the other end himself and bit it hard, chewing loudly.
"In the past, every time I was punished for kneeling in an accident, the fourth brother secretly brought me food. At that time, my greatest wish is to stand in front of the fourth brother in the future and block all the knives for him......
Liu Ke seemed to be very interested in talking today, chewing on the jerky while cursing his brothers.
Including Liu Yi, who has been given death, Liu Xian, who is still alive, and the Zhen family in the palace, Wang Ziteng in the capital, the Zhen family in Jinling, and so on.
Jia Cong also took a bite of the jerky, and asked quietly, "Lord Wang, this beef jerky doesn't look like it came from the grassland, and you met the cow that you threw yourself to death again?"
"Ahem...... It's not beef, it's pork!"
Jia Cong rolled his eyes, bit the "pork jerky" in his hand fiercely, and looked at Shao Bo Wharf, which gradually disappeared from his eyes.
"Lord Wang, Your Majesty doesn't know about Shao Bohu's suppression of bandits, right?"
Liu Ke nodded, grinned and said, "You can't let the fourth brother worry about everything, how can I say that I am also the elder brother of the fourteenth brother, and when the younger brother is ignorant, shouldn't I, the elder brother, teach him well?"
"It's time to teach and teach, His Royal Highness the Faithful King is too ignorant!"
Jia Cong also held back a fire in his heart, Ning Rong and the two mansions, the Lin family, and even Zhen Yinglian, the poor girl, in the final analysis, were all because of Liu Chen's ambition that they had such a difficult life.
He threw the last bite of jerky into his mouth, chewed and swallowed it, wiped his hands on Liu Keyi's pendulum and said, "Lord Wang, please do something......
"After returning to Beijing, can the prince accompany me to the palace of the faithful? I want to beat up this dog thing!"
Liu Ke looked at Jia Cong with wide eyes, and it took a long time before he asked a sentence: "Are you planning to beat someone and detain the black pot on Lao Tzu's head?"
Jia Cong showed a pair of small tiger teeth and grinned, "How can it be a black cauldron? I'm helping you teach your ignorant brother, do you think there are still people like me in this world?"
……
Lake Shao Bo is so large that at night there are no adjacent boats to be seen in the reeds.
"Goo-goo...... Coo-goo-goo...... Goo ......"
"Goo-goo-goo...... Coo-goo-goo...... Goo ......"
"Lord Wang, it's our people!"
A small boat with a red lantern slowly approached, and after a while, the captain at the bow of the ship came to report to Liu Keyu: "Lord Qiyu, I have already figured out the place where this army of soldiers and horses is stationed, there are three small islands about four miles ahead, and there are more than 1,000 people stationed on them, and hundreds of people left the island two days ago and have not returned."
"Strange ......"
Liu Ke touched his chin and pondered for a moment, then turned around and shouted, "Chang Wei, where are the people from Qi Bei?"
A middle-aged warrior dressed as a soldier of the royal palace walked in, clenched his fists and replied, "Back to Your Highness, according to the agreement, General Qi should have set off from Gaoyou and sailed from north to south, and he can join our army around the next hour."
"Command, first bypass these three small islands and drive quickly north."
"No!"
Liu Ke secretly had a not-so-good guess in his heart, but he didn't say it, but just ordered to join the Songjiang Sailor as soon as possible. ….
Woowoo......
About half an hour later, a flotilla of lanterns appeared in front of the ships.
The horns of the two sides transmitted messages to each other, and after the two sides approached, Jia Lian accompanied a middle-aged military general to board Liu Ke's warship in a small boat.
"The last general, Admiral Qi Bei, Songjiang Naval Division, meets His Royal Highness King Zhongshun!"
"General Qi is exempt, but this king has disturbed General Qi's purity, and I hope General Qi will not blame him."
Qi Bei is a dark-skinned man, his eyes are full of cold light, and his rough big hand always hits the hilt of the knife on his waist except when he salutes.
After the greetings, he saw Jia Cong standing on the side.
This appearance is so similar, it must be Jia Enhou's species!
There is no ugly one in Rongguo Mansion!
Qi Bei pursed his lips and said to Liu Ke dissatisfiedly: "Lord Wang, take the first Rongguo as a pawn, and you have to give an explanation to the last general afterwards!"
Liu Ke's secret agent in his heart was indeed a soldier brought out by Jia Daishan, except for the two saints in the palace, no one in this group of fighting men would give face.
Fortunately, Qi Bei also understood the current situation, so he didn't say anything else, just stretched out his right hand and rubbed it on Jia Cong's head, and said in a muffled voice: "It's a pleasing child, but it's a little fatter."
"Poof, hahaha......"
Liu Ke couldn't hold back his laughter.
Jia Cong looked at the black man in front of him with resentment, and said quietly, "Uncle Qi, my nephew is not fat, but strong! My father said that we warriors need to be stronger to wield a knife and slash***
!」
……
The cabin is brightly lit, and the Songjiang Naval Division has a very complete map of Daxia, especially the distribution of the water system around the canal, etc., which records almost all the waterway and water pattern information in detail.
"Lord Wang, these three small islands used to be the training place of the Caoyun Governor Yamen. Pei Weisheng actually rented it out for 20,000 taels of silver, I really don't know what he has in his head."
After Qi Bei scolded, he frowned and explained, "These three small islands are in the shape of a zigzag, and they are horns of each other, which are easy to defend and difficult to attack. The last general asked, do you want to keep your mouth alive?"
Well?
Liu Ke asked suspiciously, "Is there a difference?"
"Of course!"
Qi Bei replied with a sneer: "If the prince wants to leave a living mouth to correct someone, although the last general can break through its defenses, the casualties of the brothers will be very large. If the prince doesn't need to live his mouth, the last general can guarantee that these three islands will be completely wiped out with minimal casualties."
Syllable!
Liu Ke slapped the table and laughed: "It's useless to keep a living mouth, our purpose is to knock out the teeth of jackals, why bother with our own lives." General Qi, it's up to you!"
Boom Boom Boom ......
Qi Bei's method is very simple, as long as the firepower is enough, no matter how solid the fortress is, it can be erased from the map!
The roar of the newly equipped artillery on the Marine's warship seemed to be the wrath of Thor, scattering thunder and fire on the three small islands that had been silent.
The earth-shattering sound even reached the distant shore of the lake, waking up the people living near the lake.
Jia Cong covered his ears and stared blankly at the lit reeds in the distance, the pungent smell of sulfur faintly mixed with the stench of burning fur.
The screams and looming figures in the distance announced the source of the smell, Rao is Jia Cong can be regarded as having killed the enemy and seen blood, when he thinks of the jerky he ate earlier, and thinks of the situation on the island at this time, he can't help but lie on the side of the boat and vomit. ….
Jia Lian reluctantly carried it to his side, stuffed the wine jug into Jia Cong's hand, and advised: "Don't stand by the boat, you can't find it if you fall down in the black light, take a sip of wine and press it, the descendants of Rongguo Mansion, this little scene can't stand it, how will you go to the battlefield in the future?"
Tons and tons of tons!
Jia Cong, who poured three mouthfuls in one go, instantly felt a hot stinging sensation in his throat, and then a heroic aura surged into his heart.
Drink the strongest wine, play with the sharpest knife, and kill the hardest people!
The big husband should be like this!
Jia Cong ran to the side of the war drum corps, snatched the drummer's drumstick, and swung it vigorously to the rhythm.
Knock knock knock......
The sound of war drums reverberated on Shao Bo Lake, and the sound of cannons roared in the sky, like a heavenly punishment, sending the last song of death to the rebellious thieves on this island.
Jia Lian saw that the little fat man finally didn't embarrass Rongguofu, smiled slightly and turned around, hid himself in a place where no one noticed, bent over and vomited.
"Damn, I've never seen such a murderous scene in my life! ...... vomit."
……
The docks in Shao Bozhen finally quieted down a little at night, and Daiyu in the cabin sat at the table, staring at the book in her hand, and didn't turn the pages for a long time.
The candle flame danced slightly, Daiyu's brows furrowed, and she sighed to herself: "Alas, I don't know what happened to Daddy and Brother Cong?"
Woowoowoo......
Daiyu's muttering voice failed to wake up Zijuan, who was napping, but the sudden sound of a horn outside the cabin frightened her.
"What's wrong? What's wrong? Girl......
Crunch!
The door of the cabin was pushed open in an instant, and Jin Se, Mama Li, and Mama Wang rushed in hurriedly, and Daiyu was about to ask, when she saw Mama Li and said with a solemn expression...... There are thieves surrounding them, Eleven is leading people to guard outside, and the outer guards have already exchanged hands with the thieves!"
Jin Se stepped forward and touched Daiyu's little face, and comforted softly: "Don't worry, the prince has left hundreds of guards, and the family of Rongguo Mansion is guarding outside, Yu'er only needs to stay in the cabin and wait
It's fine, it'll all pass!"
Daiyu smiled and nodded, but her hand was holding the Yanling knife left by Jia Cong.
Because she saw a trace of worry in Jinse's eyes, as well as the dagger that Jinse hid in his sleeve......
Brother Cong, why haven't you come back yet!
?Pass?? Referral Ticket?.
