Chapter 372: Departure with the Army
"I'm Jiang Rao, you should have heard of me." Jiang Anrao introduced himself.
"You are Jiang Rao?" Among the several young people in Chu Mo, the leader said in surprise.
Of course they've heard of the name. Qin Mo, no, who doesn't know that the only descendant disciple of the giant Dongfang Mo is Jiang Rao? It is rumored that her status in Xinmo is also very important, but I didn't expect that she was really so young!
"Well, I heard that you are leaving Xianyang and going back to Chu? After a while, I also want to take the ink merchants of Xinmo to the Chu State, where can I find you? β
It's as if it's a friend visiting the door.
However, the atmosphere of Xinmo's family is relaxed and comfortable, isn't it common for acquaintances to visit each other? They have been here for two months, and they have met a lot of people, and they often visit people's homes.
"Well, we live near the Zhijiang River, and there's a Youjia village nearby, and if you go there, you can find us with a little inquiry. It's just that ......" Speaking of which, the more talkative You Po was a little hesitant.
"What? Is there any inconvenience? If that's the case, then forget it, we won't bother using. β
Jiang Anrao said empathetically.
Swinging your hand:
"It's not inconvenient, it's just that Chu Mo is more fiercely competitive, and it's not very peaceful there, but I'm afraid that the ink merchants will not be able to operate with peace of mind, but they will be easily affected and be involved in the fight."
"Oh? The battle between Chu Mo and Chu Mo is so serious? Then I should have gotten better. β
You Po was stunned for a moment, and said that Chu Mo fought hard, what are you still doing?
"If our Mo family itself can't love each other, then what kind of love can we talk about in the world. On behalf of Xinmo, I should persuade everyone in Chu Mo. Everyone should sit down and talk about something, but if it doesn't work, it's better to have a debate. It's not always the way to go. β
You Po and the others glanced at each other, and said in their hearts, this Jiang Rao really thinks that things are too simple. If the problem can be solved by just talking and debating, why did Chu Mo fight for so long!
"Jiang Rao's thoughts are too simple. The various factions of Chu Mo have been fighting for a long time, and some of them have become mortal enemies, which are difficult to resolve, and they can no longer be resolved through simple negotiations. β
"There is nothing difficult in the world, but I am afraid of people with hearts. I reasoned with them, and I was able to make sense. Jiang Anrao said with a smile, with a kind and determined face.
You Po and the others were helpless, and they also knew that they couldn't persuade people, and they had already begun to pity this Dongfang Mo's apprentice in their hearts, so simple, when they really arrived in the Chu State, they didn't know what they would be forced into by Chu Mo's people!
Out of pity, Jiang Anrao asked about Chu Mo next, and they told everything they knew and could say.
Combined with what others inquired about before, Jiang Anrao now has a similar understanding of Chu Mo's situation, and then chatted with a few Chu Mo's people in Youpo for a while, and seeing that he couldn't ask any more useful information, Jiang Anrao took a copy of the talisman and printed it.
This is a proof issued by Xinmo. It is rare to want to walk freely in the territory of Qin, so this special certificate is required. This is equivalent to several people coming to Qin and Xinmo for cultural exchanges, and politics has nothing to do with the country.
If it weren't for this, these Chu Mo people wouldn't be able to leave Xianyang at all!
You Po and a few people were very happy to see this, and they were still thinking about how to find a way to get this for themselves! I didn't expect Jiang Rao to send it to them! At this time, I have to be grateful to Jiang Anrao.
But there is also deep concern.
Since they came to Xianyang, all they have met in Xinmo are such simple and gentle people, kind, loving, hard-working. You Po and the others felt that these people went to Chu Mo, and if they didn't survive for three days, they would have to make people click!
I really have the heart to persuade this Jiang Rao, but don't think about going to Chu State. But looking at Jiang Rao's young face, I don't know if I should open this mouth.
Several people summed it up, but in the end, they still couldn't hold back, and persuaded Jiang Rao not to get involved in Chu Mo's affairs, and not to rush to Chu State at this time.
The Qin-Chu war is about to break out, and going to Chu at this time is easy to attract hatred. But Jiang Anrao is of course very firm in his opinion: everything can be "reasonable"!
You Po couldn't persuade them, so he could only helplessly leave his address and tell Jiang Anrao where to find them if he came.
Jiang Anrao smiled and agreed, and asked people to send them some food on the road and send them out of the city.
A few Chu Mo's people left Xianyang quietly, and Jiang Anrao also packed his bags and selected one hundred and twenty Mo family children to prepare to leave for Chu State.
Sima Cuo would lead 10,000 men to set out from Longxi, and then go to Bajun to change the water road and attack Chu along the Fu (fΓΊ) River. Jiang Anrao took the Mo family and directly took a boat to follow the Qin army's team into Chu together.
Jiang Chiyu had already followed Bai Qi on the expedition again, they were an army of 100,000 and set out from Wuguan to attack Chu.
The two armies are in different directions, and there should be no intersection in the future.
Not long after the audience watched Jiang Chiyu's side set off with the army, they saw the momentum of the Great Qin Water Division.
The last time I saw a big ship, it was when Jiang Anrao's family came to Qin on Meng Weijun's boat.
Now Sima Coo went out on the expedition, and after marching to Ba County, the Qin army gathered 10,000 large ships, and added 100,000 soldiers from Ba and Shu, a total of 120,000 soldiers went down the Fu River by boat.
The Yu Huangzhou of the Qin army is the flagship warship and command ship, which is three stories high, and the rest of the large, medium and small wings, building ships, sudden attacks, and Ge ships and many kinds of warships form a huge fleet, walking on the river, stretching for several miles!
As the commander, Sima Cuo lived above Emperor Yu, and Jiang Narao took the people of the Mo family into four groups and rode on several large wings.
Jiang Anrao's big wing is ten zhang long, that is, twenty meters; It is five feet wide, which is more than three meters. This is one of the heavy ships of warships nowadays. Under normal circumstances, there are twenty-six soldiers on each wing, fifty oars, and three boats, which are the bow and stern of the ship to control the direction, and if necessary, these people can be responsible for connecting the heads and tails of the two warships.
In general, there are archers, axes, etc., on the wings, and there are also a certain number of weapons and enough food for men to eat for several months.
The ship where Jiang Anrao and the others were on did not have swords, axes and archers, and the weapons they carried were different from those of ordinary ships. However, these ships are all developed by the Mo family, and they can come in handy at critical moments.
The fleet walked very fast, two or three hundred miles a day, and soon reached the vicinity of Fuling.
Approaching Fuling, the Chu army could not ignore it, and before the Qin army approached, the Chu army warship came out. The fleets of the two countries met on the river, and a water battle was about to break out.
