The rain came unexpectedly, first with a few droplets falling on the face, followed by a downpour.

The rain in Jiangnan is like this, you always can't figure out the law of its coming, and people who have really been to Jiangnan know that the so-called smoke and rain in Jiangnan is just an adjective in the mouth of literati and ink writers.

The downpour like a sky leak is coming, which is the norm in Jiangnan.

The torch in Song Qing's hand was extinguished by the heavy rain, and he and Chen Kan became blind.

Song Qing smiled bitterly, he didn't expect that he was still talking about the rain in the last second, and the next moment it would be like this.

"My lord, I'm afraid this rain won't stop for a while."

"It's okay, it doesn't hurt to get a little rain."

Chen Kan looked into the distance, although he couldn't see his five fingers in the rain, he seemed to see countless killing machines hidden in the rainy night in front of him.

Chen Kan had no intention of returning to the room, even though the candles were flickering from the wind brought by the heavy rain in the wide open door.

He needed such a heavy rain now to help him wash his filthy heart.

For someone who actively steps into a mud pond, there is nothing more suitable than getting a shower in the rain.

If Chen Kan doesn't leave, Song Qing has no reason to leave.

Two big men, standing in the rain, listening to the waterline smashing the deck crackling, like two fools!

"When it rains heavily, the power of gunpowder will be greatly reduced, and it seems that it is inevitable to stage a real fight with real knives and guns, tell the sailors and soldiers, prepare for a white-knuckle battle."

Retracting his gaze from the darkness, Chen Kan's voice was very soft, as if he was telling a trivial matter, Song Qing was shocked, he heard the smell of the sea of corpses and blood in the words of this adult.

The cruising Fu boat gradually sounded the sound of shouting and killing, and this shouting and killing sounded like this heavy rain, which came without warning.

If someone were to bring the light source close to the water at this time, they would definitely find that the canal water, which was originally as turquoise as a curtain belt, had quietly changed color.

Chen Kan's ears moved slightly, listening to the shouting and killing sound getting closer and closer, he couldn't help but laugh and said: "Song Qianhu, can the sailor also carry out jumping battles in this weather?" ”

In the night, after listening to Chen Kan's question, Song Qing couldn't help but have a touch of pride on his face.

"The sailors and soldiers in the water will only be more difficult to deal with than the loaches in the water, but the brocade guards on the ship, although most of them are from the south, and the water nature is not bad, but after all, they are not as good as us men who beg for a living on the water all year round! This first achievement, it seems that our sailors and soldiers are the best to do, hahaha. ”

"Not necessarily!"

Song Qing's slightly smug laughter came from his ears, Chen Kan was noncommittal, whether it was strong or weak, he still had to see the results to see the difference.

This interception seems to come out of nowhere, but when you think about it, it is reasonable.

The Jin clan is a family, two generations of management, after all, there are some hardcore henchmen, and it is not surprising that there are backers.

When they were in Beijing, they didn't have the ability to attack the Jinyi Guard's Imperial Prison, and now that they are out of the city, no matter whether they can successfully rescue Zhu Jixi or not, they will always try it.

In fact, these people came later than Chen Kan expected, and he originally thought that they would do it after they went to the river.

As a result, there was no movement from Jingshi all the way to Yangzhou, which made Chen Kan think that they had given up on Zhu Jixi.

But now it seems that they are just waiting for this rain.

Not a big problem.

There were more than 100 sailors and soldiers on the boat, and on the water, they were invincible, and when they got off the boat, the more than 1,000 Jinyi lieutenants under Chen Kan were not vegetarians.

No matter how much King Jin has any backhand, it is impossible for him to be the opponent of so many heavily armed soldiers.

The shouts of killing came and went quickly, and Chen Kan and Song Qing fell silent after a few words.

"Report, Lord Yu, the Fu boat escorting on the flank has been attacked by an unknown enemy, and the invading enemy has been completely annihilated by the soldiers of our naval division."

After listening to the report of the sailor soldiers, Chen Kan didn't say much, but Song Qing let out a burst of heroic laughter in the rain.

Neither of them asked how many enemies they were invading, let alone how much they had lost in battle.

Everyone knows that this is just a temptation, and before Chen Kan and Zhu Jixi do not reach a cooperation, such temptations will happen in a steady stream.

Under the game of the big guys, the so-called life is just a number.

For a while, Chen Kan felt a little bored.

In order to save some irrelevant people in Beijing, he chose to pit Li Jinglong and Ji Gang.

Now, in order to complete the task assigned by the king, he has to kill some inconsequential people, saviors and executioners, and this identity is always difficult to define.

Walking towards the flickering candlelight in the night, Chen Kan closed the door of his room, as if he could separate the world.

Shook off the stagnant water on his hair, wrapped his hair in a dry towel, and threw his soaked clothes into a corner, Chen Kan fell asleep on the bed.

It turned out that sleeping with wet hair was definitely not a good choice, and before dawn, a smell of fermentation almost smoked Chen Kan to vomit out yesterday's overnight meal.

The heavy rain was still falling, and after thinking about it, Chen Kan simply stuck his head out of the window and began to rub his hair desperately with the rain from heaven. Fortunately, it is Jiangnan in July, even if the rain is pouring down, it is still not cold, otherwise Chen Kan's operation will kill himself sooner or later.

When Chen Kan washed himself, the heavy rain just stopped, and the sky was bright.

On the leading treasure ship, the sailors waved the command flag, and the fleet once again went north along the canal.

At noon on the fourth day, the fleet turned from the canal to the Huai River.

The Huai River, together with the Qinling Mountains in the birthplace of the Huai River, together form the north-south dividing line in the macro sense of the Ming Dynasty.

To Chen Kan's surprise, the fleet was not attacked again in the past three days.

Could it be that King Jin's back hand is wilting?

How can you be so short and powerless?

"My lord, there is the intersection of Hongze Lake and Tongji Canal ahead, if our fleet is transferred to Tongji Canal, we can only move forward in a separate row, do we need to arrange it in advance?"

Listening to Song Qing's words, Chen Kan said angrily: "Arrange it in advance, what is the arrangement, do you want us to get off the boat and walk?" ”

was reprimanded by Chen Kan, Song Qing was not angry, and after retreating, all the boats were half-packed at the same time as agreed, and then moved into a small river.

This river is now the economic artery that undertakes all the trade between Guanzhong and Jiangnan, and is also the main channel of the Sui-Tang Grand Canal, Tongji Canal.

Since the pre-Song Dynasty, after the country's population and economic center of gravity gradually shifted southward, this waterway was abandoned for a time.

It was not until the founding of the Ming Dynasty that Taizu founded the Ming Dynasty and wanted to move north to Beijing in Kaifeng that it was able to re-dredge.
