Chapter 232: Capture the Army
"Is it possible that the general still wants to go to the sea?" Liu Han noticed and asked with a smile.
Man Tong looked up at the starry sky, laughed, and then said with anticipation: "The Prancing Horse Grassland, raising waves of the sea, and announcing the prestige of my Great Jin Dynasty in the four seas is the wish of my generation of warriors." I heard that there are many countries overseas, from Yuhang to the sea, sailing to the northeast, there is a big island Dongying, there are two countries on it, and sailing to the southwest, there are several small countries, I really want to see what the world is like!"
Liu Han didn't speak, just sighed deeply, it has been more than ten years since he arrived in this world, from the boy who struggled for his life to now, he has always wanted to figure out how this world is different from that world.
Up to now, he has found a lot of the same places, for example, there are the Yellow River, the Yangtze River, there are also the Grand Canal, and even Yangzhou, Wu County is very similar to that Suzhou, and the lake is like Taihu Lake.
There are many similarities in these places, but there are also differences, for example, I have not heard of the Great Wall, I have not heard of the Qin Dynasty, there is no strong Han and Tang Dynasty, there is no holy teacher, but there is a book of Taoism, but this Taoist book is messy, covering Confucianism, Taoism, Buddhism.
Now there is another Dongying, this Dongying should not be an island country that is good at action movies, I don't know if there is still the Roman Empire.
The flotilla silently went down the river, although the ships were controlling their speed, and in a hurry, the flotilla reached Danyang.
After Danyang, it left the Yangtze River waterway and entered the canal, which was not so dangerous compared to the Yangtze River, but it was still not easy to walk, and, from Danyang, it entered the jurisdiction of Wu County.
The leading boat gave a signal and turned into the canal waterway, this time not only Liu Han was worried, but Man Tong was also very worried, this night without lights, such an operation was very dangerous, and if you didn't pay attention to it, you might run aground.
The boat slowly sailed into the canal, and Man Tong asked the signalman to signal from time to time to inquire about the situation of the ships behind, and an hour later, the whole fleet entered the canal waterway, and he was relieved.
"If there are no surprises, we can reach Wu County in the afternoon. ”
Liu Han thought for a moment: "The speed can be slowed down, you can go in the evening, the signs of each ship must be put away, and you are not allowed to hang it out without an order." ”
"Understood. ”
In fact, the fleet could not be fast even if it wanted to, the canal channel was not wide, the current was gentle, there was no wind, and the boats either relied on slender men or oars, and slender men only had to be available during the day, and now they could only rely on oars.
--------------------------------
Four sturdy men surrounded the purple-robed man who was making a spear, and the purple-robed man was haunted with a spear, killing the four men backwards again and again, and the applause around him continued.
A small soldier ran from the gate of the camp, went to the edge of the battle group, looked at it with a smile, and soon a man was beaten out of the war group, and the man got up from the ground, and he was not angry, and joined in the encouragement with a smile.
The sword flashed, the dust flew, and a voice came from the battle group: "Go!"
Another man flew out in response, and then with two bangs, two men fell to the ground, and the soldiers watching around applauded.
The purple-robed man stood with a gun, looking at the four of them arrogantly looking up to the sky and laughing, his expression was very happy.
"Alright, little bunnies, practice hard!"
The purple-robed man said and threw the gun to the soldiers waiting on the side, and everyone was not in a hurry to train, and talked around the purple-robed man with a smile.
"General!"
The little soldier squeezed into the crowd and shouted, and the purple-robed man turned his head to look at him: "What's the matter? You are not standing guard at the gate of the camp, what are you doing here!"
"Someone is asking to see the general!" the soldier hurriedly reported, the purple-robed man was only a lieutenant, but everyone in the camp knew that he liked to be called a general.
The purple-robed man took his coat from his own soldier and asked casually, "Who?
"I don't know, it's a foreign accent, and it looks like an official family. "The little soldier is very discerning, and he found so many characteristics without saying a few words to those people.
"The official family?" the purple-robed man put on his coat on the bed and tied his cloak: "Let's go, go and meet, you guys, train hard! Don't embarrass the master!"
The purple-robed man took two personal soldiers to the camp gate with the small soldiers, and there were five strong men waiting for him at the camp gate, these five people were dressed similarly, sackcloth and robes, with a long knife hanging on their waists, and straw shoes on their feet, standing at the camp gate, with a calm expression, without the slightest nervousness,
"Several, what's the matter with me?" the purple-robed man asked casually.
The Mai-clothed man led by him took two steps forward and walked in front of the purple-robed man: "You are Zhou Jun, the commander of Wu County?"
The purple-robed man was stunned for a moment, and the soldiers behind him shouted unhappily: "Presumptuous!
The man in sackcloth didn't speak, he lifted the hem of his robe, revealing a yellow sign, Zhou Jun's expression changed slightly, and he was about to speak, when the man in sackcloth lowered his voice: "This is not the place to speak." ”
"Yes, sir, please!"
Zhou Jun glared at the pro-soldiers, the pro-soldiers took a step back, Zhou Jun was in front, the man in sackcloth followed behind, and the group arrived at Zhou Jun's lobby.
"A few adults come to my Wu County, what are you doing?" Zhou Jun let the man in sackcloth to the upper seat, that sign is the tiger guard card of the tiger guard, the tiger guard is the emperor's personal soldiers, and all the tiger guards are dispatched, almost all of them are major events.
The man in sackcloth did not speak, but took out an official letter and handed it to Zhou Jun, Zhou Jun took it and looked at it, it was the order of the state lieutenant and the Qin Chaxing camp, ordering him to hand over the command of the national soldiers of Wujun County to the tiger guard officer named Wei Bao in front of him.
"Lord Wei, what does this mean?" Zhou Jun was very puzzled and dissatisfied.
"You'll know then, now I'll ask you a few questions. Wei Bao's expression was calm, the five of them entered Wu County in batches, and they had been in Wu County for three days, and they had walked through the streets and alleys of Wu County.
Zhou Jun was about to answer, when out of the corner of his eye, he suddenly saw his own soldiers giving him a look, he looked at the room in confusion, the four tiger guards who came in with Wei Bao did not sit down, but scattered all over the room quietly, but it seemed to be unintentional, but it blocked his way in and out.
Zhou Jun's expression suddenly became serious, and he asked in a deep voice, "My lord, what does this mean?"
"It's okay," Wei Bao's expression was calm, and his big hand pressed down: "Please sit down, the above will explain the errand, as for what it is, we will know later, now, I want to ask you a few questions." ”
Zhou Jun suppressed the anger in his chest and said in a deep voice: "Please give an order." ”
"How many soldiers are there in Wu County now?" Wei Bao asked.
"Seven hundred and sixty-two. Zhou Jun's heart sank, and then he calmed down, according to the rules of the imperial court, Wu County is a big county, and there should be 1,500 county soldiers in the big county, but now there are only half of them, but this Wu County, it can even be said that Jiangnan, has been peaceful for a long time, and the national soldiers of each county are insufficient, this is already an open secret, when he took over, there were only more than 500 county soldiers, or he recruited more than 200 after taking office, and then there were more than 700 people.
"Seven hundred and sixty-two people, a little less, but it's enough," Wei Bao didn't pursue it, and said to himself: "Gather the whole army immediately, right on the school ground." ”
"Obey!" Zhou Jun replied angrily, Wei Bao stood up, Zhou Jun went out with him, and arrived at the school field, Wei Bao looked at the soldiers who were practicing on the school field, and ordered to gather.
The soldiers stopped the drill and looked at Zhou Jun first, Zhou Jun's face was gloomy, the soldiers hurriedly ran over, and after a while, the soldiers gathered under the school parade platform.
"Everyone is here?" Wei Bao asked.
Zhou Jun swept his eyes, hugged his fists and replied: "Everyone at home has arrived, the team is Xu Hai asking for leave to go home, his daughter-in-law is about to give birth, and Cao Qiang, the chief of the team, is asking for leave." ”
"Seven hundred and sixty-two, all here?" Wei Bao asked.
"Except for the man and the grain station, everyone else has arrived. Zhou Jun replied loudly, and the soldiers below looked at each other, they had already heard the dissatisfaction in Zhou Jun's tone, but it was obvious that it was Shangguan who was questioning.
"Roll call!" Wei Bao has not been able to settle for a long time.
Zhou Jun endured his anger again and ordered the roll call, and during the roll call, Wei Bao whispered to Zhou Jun: "This matter today is very important, and we can't make any mistakes, otherwise, you and I won't be able to save our heads." ”
Zhou Jun was greatly surprised, and hurriedly asked in a low voice, "My lord, what is the matter?"
"You'll know when the time comes. ”
Zhou Jun was full of suspicions, but Wei Bao had already turned around, and the other four tiger guards were scattered all over the school grounds, but they faintly surrounded the county soldiers gathered in the school field.
After the number of people was counted, except for the man who was cooking and the eleven officers and soldiers who asked for leave, the other 730 people were here, and in addition to the two officers, there were also nine soldiers who asked for leave, which was common among the soldiers of the county.
"Sit down!" Wei Bao ordered, he took the lead in sitting cross-legged, Zhou Jun was confused, but thinking of Wei Bao's words just now, he made a gesture, and sat down on the spot, and the soldiers of the county could only sit down when they saw Zhou Jun's gesture, and a few anxious soldiers shouted.
"My lord, what is this going to do!"
"What is this for!"
............
Wei Bao ignored it at all, sat cross-legged, and didn't seem to hear at all.
Zhou Jun got up and shouted: "The military order is like a mountain! Sit down! If you dare to make a noise again, you will be whipped thirty!"
A few noisy soldiers didn't dare to say any more, they sat down helplessly, everyone sat down, and the soldiers below were the same as Zhou Jun, confused, not knowing what these suddenly descending Shangguan were going to do!
A tiger guard erected a bamboo pole, and Zhou Jun found that Wei Bao's eyes were fixed on the bamboo pole, and he felt a little stunned in his heart, is this waiting for someone.
Time passed slowly, and everyone had been sitting in the school field for a long time, and the soldiers were becoming more and more suspicious, but they did not dare to speak.
"My lord!" A team was raising their hands, Zhou Jun nodded, and the team was getting up and clasping their fists at Wei Bao: "May I ask the superior, let's sit here, what is the matter?"
Wei Bao stared at him: "The military order is like a mountain, and those who violate the order will be killed!"
This slash is incomparable!
"My lord, the military order must be obeyed, but even if we are to die, we should let us know what we are going to do!"
The team was frightened, but Zhou Jun asked coldly.
Wei Bao looked at the time, the sun was slowly setting in the west, and he was also very anxious, hearing Zhou Jun's questioning, looking at the dissatisfied and suspicious expressions of the soldiers below, he took a deep breath.
"Well, I can tell you something, we are waiting for us, and the captain will come and explain to you in person that anyone who tries to leave here before the captain arrives will be killed!"
Zhou Jun's expression became serious, of course he knew the weight of the captain of the Tiger Benwei, and now, in the entire Jiangnan, there is only one captain of the Tiger Benwei, and that is in Yangzhou, who is responsible for the safety of the Qincha and controls the military strength of Yangzhou, Lord Liu Hanliu.
Outside the camp gate, on the small tea stall, a down-and-out man with a hat was holding a bowl of the cheapest bitter tea, drinking it slowly, and occasionally glanced at the county national soldier camp.
