Chapter 42: Three Days and Five Hundred Miles

When Lin Tie led more than 1,000 people to appear on the long causeway on the east bank of the ferry, the officials who were waiting here to sacrifice the flag for King Qin's master finally believed that the fact that Lin Tie led more than 1,000 people to march nearly 500 miles for three days and nights was vividly happening in front of them.

It is said that the whole army is spread in sixteen miles, and the more than 1,000 people, including Lin Jian and more than a dozen sword-wielding warriors around him, have a layer of gray on their clothes and faces, and the queue is also unbearable, and most of them are dragging bamboo and wooden guns, standing in the whistling north wind with a tired expression, waiting to change their clothes here and then go north to King Qin.

"How is this possible?" He led the army to fight at the age of seventeen, thinking that it was very difficult for him to understand military affairs. If he is given an elite army, it is not particularly difficult to force 500 miles in three days; But if he is given a recruit who has not undergone the test of blood and fire, such an intensity of forced march, the recruit will be directly on the verge of collapse.

Extravagant Feihu never refused to admit that Lin Lian was stronger than him, but the facts were in front of him.

More than 1,000 people lined up on the embankment after a forced march of 500 miles, although they looked tired, but judging from the formation, this group of people braves not showed signs of collapse, but showed a firmer will.

"How is this possible?" Qin Zitan was also silent, he saw that the luxurious Feihu had a solemn expression, which could also be said to be ugly.

If Xisha Island really has such an elite army, it may be the right decision for the eldest prince not to storm Xisha Island before, otherwise with Lin Tie's strong and unwilling to retreat, it is possible that the three thousand East China Sea soldiers will be completely disabled. But at the beginning of August, when he led the lake bandits to attack Xisha Island, although he was resolutely resisted, the military strength of Xisha Island was definitely not so strong.

Qin Zitan's face also became ugly.

Song Jia lifted the curtain of the car and looked at her husband and Qin Zitan with ugly faces, put down the curtain and said to her sister-in-law Hao Mingyue and said with a smile: "For the man who lured into the blind corner of thinking, no matter how smart he was before, he will become very stupid at this moment." If it were me, I would have been able to bring more than 1,000 people to Jiangning in three days, so there was no need to make such a fuss...... Of course, I can't run that far on my feet, and I really have to break up all my bones when I get in the car. ”

"What's the solution?" Hao Mingyue asked curiously, she knew nothing about military affairs, but everyone recognized that it was impossible, but Lin Jian did it, she was still very curious.

"Conventional methods can't work, then only the sword will go sideways," Song Jia said with a smile, "If your brother is smart, he only needs to send someone to walk the way from Lin Lian and know what is going on." ”

Yu Feihu couldn't wipe his face and asked his wife Lin Tie how he used to bring more than 1,000 people to Jiangning, thinking that it was really a way to send someone to walk back along the road, no matter how strong Jiang Ning's side monitored him, he had to find out how Lin Tie did it, otherwise he would be too passive.

Qin Zitan woke up Song Jia, his mind gradually calmed down, and he thought: Nearly four months have passed since Lin Tie arrived at Xisha Island for disaster relief in mid-June, and now it is difficult for them to figure out the military potential of Xisha Island, Xisha Island is like a black fog that people can't see through, the longer the time drags on, the deeper this black fog is.

************

Seeing Lin Tie and more than 1,000 Minyong appear on the causeway, Gu Wuchen's tense face finally showed a smile at this moment, this time the post reported that Lin Tie led Minyong to rectify in Sixteen Miles, and everyone still refused to believe it, and they wanted to send someone to check. At this time, he smiled with Li Zhuo, Wang Xueshan and others with a relaxed face: "Hehe, there is no delay in time, the commander can officially send troops to the north to Qinwang at this time......

Gu Wuchen wanted to be old and serious, Zhang Yubo and the others looked forward to it for a long time, and when they saw Lin Jian and more than 1,000 people bravely appearing on the causeway, they were all very excited, as if King Qinwang of the north had won a great victory in the first battle, and walked quickly from the ferry to the causeway.

Regardless of the tiredness on Lin Lian's face, Liu Xilin punched him in the chest and asked with a smile, "How did you do it?" Running 500 miles in three days without breaking apart is difficult for even the world's first-class elite soldiers to do......"

Lin Jian smiled and said, "To put it bluntly, there is nothing magical, let me tell you, you don't want others to demolish me." ”

"Come on, I'm eager to see what kind of trick you use," Zhang Yubo asked preemptively, "We have been working very hard in Jiangning these days, don't you sell us this pass." ”

"Don't sell Guanzi, don't sell Guanzi," Lin Lian said with a smile, "A thousand people want one person not to fall into a hurry of five hundred miles to Jiangning, it is impossible, and I, Lin Lian, do not have the ability to turn stones into gold; If 2,000 or more people spread their feet from Xisha Island, as long as 1,000 people were guaranteed to arrive in Jiangning in time, it would probably not be a difficult task, right? ”

"Ah......" Zhang Yubo and Liu Xilin were stunned for a moment, where did they think that Lin Jian would play such a big slippery head?

"You, you ......" Zhang Yubo pointed at Lin Tie for a long time, and he didn't know what to say about him, thinking that it was no wonder that Lin Tie wanted to make a short stay in the Sixteen Mile Shop, it turned out that he wanted to reorganize the Minyong Army a little, so that it would be more shocking to the ferry.

Zhang Yubo and Liu Xilin turned around and looked at the ferry under the embankment, and the officials who gave Qin Wang Shi a trip on the ferry were extremely shocked by the fact that Lin Lian led Minyong to force a 500-mile road in three days, and looked at each other.

However, Liu Xilin knew the difficulty of the forced march, and knew that even if Lin was tricked, in the end, more than 1,000 people would be able to come to the ferry in a neat queue, if he was very capable.

The connection between the forced march of more than 2,000 people in batches and the rapid supply of supplies, as well as the integration of a large number of people who have fallen behind along the way, are extremely difficult tasks.

"Okay, everyone played a trick on you, you're really treacherous. Wash your face, all the adults are waiting at the ferry, it will be an auspicious time soon, and you will sacrifice the flag and send troops," Zhang Yubo urged with a smile, "You are in a hurry here, it seems that the troops will not be dispatched until tomorrow at the earliest." ”

Lin Lian's face was covered with dust, and he asked people to come to the estuary, so he washed his face in the cold estuary, changed into a neat and clean armor, and then went down the embankment with Zhang Yubo and Liu Xilin, and said to Zhang Yubo and Liu Xilin while walking: "This trip to the north is difficult, and the willpower of the people to bear hardships and stand hard work is extremely high, and the time left for me to recruit troops is very short, and I can only use this forced way to march to eliminate the weak and stay strong." The forced march of 500 miles in three days is not only a test of Minyong's physical fitness and physical strength, but also a test of Minyong's will......

Zhang Yubo and Liu Xilin thought so, but not everyone could take this kind of sword way.

Lin Jian has the duty of disaster relief to Xisha Island, and his military guards fought a bloody battle with the lake pirates to defend Xisha Island, and then worked hard for the settlement of displaced people on Xisha Island, and only he could make Xisha Island brave and brave for three days to run 500 miles without being separated.

Lin Jian looked at the 2,000 people after Gu Wuchen and other Jiangning officials, those were the people who Liu Xilin and Zhang Yubo recruited for him on the north bank of the estuary and Chaotiandang, of which 1,400 were the vagrants who had no training at all, and 600 were the people who had been trained in rotation for half a month at the mouth of the river. If they are the main force, this trip to the north of the King of Qin will be very dangerous, but with more than 100 elite people of Xisha Island as the backbone, this time the King of Qinqin still has a few chances.

It's really not good, and it's okay to fight soy sauce, as long as the performance is not worse than the main force of the Jiangdong Qinwang army led by Cheng Yuqian.

****************

Li Zhuo squinted at Minyong on the causeway, he originally gave Lin Jian four days to forcibly march for 500 miles, but he didn't expect Lin Lian to be delayed on Xisha Island for one more day, and it took only three days to walk nearly 500 miles and rush back to Jiangning.

Gao Zongting smiled slightly, out of Hailing Mansion is Weiyang Mansion under Dong Yuan's rule, Lin Jian led the people to take the land route, along the post road, to pass through Weiyang Mansion, a lot of information Dong Yuan will send people to Jiangning in time.

It is very difficult for a thousand people to march forcibly without leaving a single person behind in three days, and it is impossible for a strong soldier of the first class to do it; However, it is not absolutely impossible to force the march of 2,000 or even more people, and finally make more than half of them cover 500 miles in three days.

Gao Zongting thought to himself that the more than 1,000 people selected by Lin Tie by forcible march were armed with bravery, and they probably also had the strength to fight. Before this, others thought that Lin Jian would use Hekou to recruit Yong as the backbone to restrain these 3,000 people, but he didn't expect him to recruit Jianyong from Xisha Island as the backbone.

Li Zhuo's face sank like water, so that others couldn't see what he was thinking.

Lin Jian washed his face and dressed himself, ran down the river embankment to the ferry, and greeted Li Zhuo, Gu Wuchen, Wang Tian, Wang Xueshan, Cheng Yuqian and others.

Li Zhuo only said lightly: "Very good," and then ordered left and right in a deep voice, "Prepare to sacrifice the flag for King Qin......"

The horn of the long ox blew and the whimpering sounded, sad and heroic, the shirtless sergeant carried the livestock of the sacrificial flag to the incense case, Li Zhuo asked Cheng Yuqian to lead the officials of the king of Qin in the north to take the stage to sacrifice the flag together, and assign the seal letter to defend the guard.

Cheng Yuqian was full of pessimism about this trip to lead the division to the north of King Qin, especially Li Zhuo's hard stuffing of 3,000 people into King Qin's division, these days he has to scold Li Zhuo's ancestors every day, and when Lin Lian led more than 1,000 people to run 500 miles and appeared on the ferry embankment as scheduled, he was in a slightly better mood, thinking that these more than 1,000 people were much stronger than the miscellaneous pieces given to him by the Yamen of the Admiral's Mansion! This swineherd is really not an ordinary person, you have to take a good look, and if you encounter a strong enemy in the north, you have to rely on each other.

Sacrificial flag hairdresser, Cheng Yuqian and Lin Jian made an appointment on the way to contact the people, and led more than 7,000 people to take the waterway first, they wanted to go east along the river first, from Baisha County to the north by the Baishui River through Weiyang Mansion, to avoid the Liu thieves who gathered in Hongzepu.

It is very rare for Lin Tie to lead more than 1,000 people to arrive in Jiangning as scheduled, everyone's body is extremely tired, it takes a day to rest and change clothes, and tomorrow you can go straight along the Shiliang River to the north, from the savage ferry in the north of Gutang County to the east to Weiyang Mansion, which can save a day's itinerary than Cheng Yuqian.
