Chapter 729
: Landing
There are a few fishing fires on the river, accompanied by stars in the sky, adding to the loneliness in the dark night. The wind blows over, carrying the breath of the river.
Orihiko stood under the mast, looking at the moon in the sky. At night when the moon is sparse, it will be particularly lonely. It seems that as the wind blows, the ups and downs of the past few years suddenly come to mind. His family lives in the northwest.
Over the past hundreds of years, there have been glories and desolations, but this is the first time like this.
Will he be able to get through safely? Orihiko doesn't know.
Suddenly, the person on the bow of the boat shouted: "Who is coming? The boat is moving so fast!"
After hearing this, Zheyanzhi hurried to the bow of the ship. He saw several small boats rushing towards his big ship like arrows off the side.
He hurriedly turned his head and shouted to the cabin: "Inspection Tan, something is unusual, come out quickly!"
Inspector Tan had been drinking at night and was just about to fall asleep. When he heard the shouting, he came out reluctantly. He whispered: "Straight bitch, you are making such a fuss! It's hard to even sleep!"
He walked to the bow of the ship and stood next to Zhe Yanzhi. When he saw the small boat rushing in the river, Inspector Tan was frightened and woke up from the wine. He hurriedly directed his men to secure the bow of the ship and said loudly:
"Listen to my order, the boat is approaching, shoot the arrow immediately!"
The guards sang loudly together.
"It's gone, it's gone!" Just when the boat was getting extremely nervous, the boat suddenly veered to one side and slid past the larger ship.
Inspector Tan let out a sigh of relief and said angrily: "Who are these people? They dare to make fun of the official ship! Give Huangzhou a piece of official paper and take them away! If I don't let out this bad breath, I will be very angry! Straight mother-in-law.
, it has been peaceful all the way, how come people dare to act like this when we get here!"
Zheyan said: "Inspection, don't be careless, let's get through tonight safely first!"
Inspector Tan hurriedly said yes. He was just mumbling. Although others could not hear clearly, they all knew that what he said was not a good thing.
At this moment, the person at the stern of the boat suddenly said: "No, those boats are back again!"
After hearing this, Inspector Tan hurriedly led people to the stern of the ship. He saw several small boats, like ghosts, coming from behind. Inspector Tan gritted his teeth and once again ordered the soldiers to draw their bows and set arrows. As the boats approached,
Release the arrow immediately.
As a result, just like the last time, the small boat passed by the side of the big ship again and sailed into the vast night.
Twice in a row, even Zheyan could tell that something was not good. He called Tan for inspection and said, "What should I do? These boats came in strange ways, and they are not coming from a good place. Huangzhou is ahead of us. How about we dock?"
, escape this night.”
Inspector Tan said: "Our ship is big and there are many soldiers. As long as we guard it tightly, we are not afraid of ordinary thieves. But once it docks, it will be hard to say."
Orihiko was so anxious that he jumped to his feet and said: "But if we don't dock, these ships will come back and forth like ghosts. When will it be over?"
Inspector Tan frowned and did not answer.
At this moment, I heard the people on the bow shouting: "Coming, coming, coming again!"
Zhe Yanzhi looked up and saw those small boats emerging from the shadows, silently approaching his big ship.
Zhe Yanzhi has been living in the north. Where has he seen such a scene? The river is completely silent in the dark night, which can easily make people nervous. He stamped his feet and said sternly to Inspector Tan: "No matter what, let's get to the shore first! Wait until
At dawn, order Huangzhou to investigate this matter! If we don’t catch the person tonight, how can we make people feel at ease!"
Inspector Tan had no choice but to say so and ordered the boatman to sail to the Huangzhou Pier not far away.
Upstairs in Qixia, under the moonlight, Xu Wen watched several large ships on the river sailing towards the shore, and couldn't help but laugh. He said to He Ning beside him: "We sailed at night, and it's too late to dock now. This is true.
After all, I grew up in the northwest and am not familiar with these water activities. At night, even if you arrive at the dock, you have to wait until dawn before docking. How can you dock at night? Where is anyone at the dock at this time? "
After saying that, he couldn't help but shake his head.
He Ning said: "Isn't it Zhongtong's strategy to move the capital to the shore?"
Xu Wen smiled and said: "Of course I have calculated that he will definitely reach the shore. Before he reaches the shore, a few small boats will scare them out of their wits!"
He Ningdao: "The commander is the commander of the Song Dynasty's navy and army, so naturally it cannot be transferred to the capital!"
Xu Wen smiled. He stood up, walked to the railing, and looked at the moon in the sky. He said: "Qixia Tower is the highest place in Chibi, with an unobstructed view of the river. You and I will watch the battle here tonight. We will seize the cannon.
, just go back to Tuanfeng Town and go north!"
He Ning said yes. She has nothing but admiration for Xu Wen. If Xu Wen came up with a method, he might not be able to come up with it. But with such a tight schedule and no mistakes, there was no way he could do it. In a few years, Xu Wen
It was no fluke that Wen went from being an unqualified young general to becoming the commander of several naval forces in the Song Dynasty.
It wasn't Wan Yanchang who sent Xu Wen here this time. It was really not easy to seize the artillery by himself.
After reaching the shore, Zhe Yanzhi looked up and saw a mountain standing there in the west of the city. In the dark night, it looked like a monster. He was stunned for a moment and asked: "Is that mountain Chibi? Su Zizhan was demoted to Huangzhou.
I wrote the second poem of "Red Cliff" and the song "Shui Tiao Ge Tou" is here?"
The boatman on one side said: "The official said it is right, there is Red Cliff. I don't know so many articles, but Su Guan people have heard of it. The people in Huangzhou also thought that Su Guan people lived here.
I feel very proud."
Orihiko nodded and couldn't help but look at it twice.
Strictly speaking, Su Shi was not the old party, but he was not the new party, and he was very critical of the new party. He was demoted many times, mostly related to the struggle between the old and new parties. After Zhao Gou ascended the throne, there was a loud voice in the government and the public that the Jingkang crisis was
It was caused by Wang Anshi's reform. Of course, the most important thing is that Zhao Gou himself thought so. Therefore, it was the court's fundamental policy to denounce the new party and praise the old Yuanyou party. Su Shi, who was dealt with by the new party, became more famous than before.
As soon as they landed, Inspector Tan quickly caught up. He said to Zheyan: "Du Cheng, there is no one on the dock, and the goods on the ship cannot be moved. We can only leave more people on the ship. We are a big ship, and it is not easy to set sail. If there are people
To commit an offense at this time is no small matter!"
Zheyan questioned: "We have already docked, so what are you afraid of? You order the people on the boat to be careful and send more people to the shore to check if there are any suspicious people. I will send people to ask Huangzhou to go out of the city to meet them tomorrow.
See you again at dawn!"
Inspector Tan had no choice but to cross his hands and say yes.
Zhe Yanzhi turned around and looked at the river and let out a breath. He had been practicing martial arts since he was a child and was a Jinshi. He was good at both civil and military affairs. As long as he stepped ashore, what else would he be afraid of? If he had known that the waterway was so scary, he might as well have taken the land route.
