Chapter 017
Long Xiang bid farewell to Han Yin and returned to the camp, and immediately summoned Feng Zhong and Tang Xu to discuss that the two of them are now rising and are promoted from the chief to the marquis of Qu.
"Brother, I have already told Han Yin that when it gets dark, you can take people to the dock and ask the soldiers to choose good armor and weapons. Now there are many people in Shouchun City, remember to be more secretive in your actions." Long Xiang explained seriously to Tang Xu.
Tang Xu clasped his fists and replied, "Don't worry, Yunqi, I will be foolproof."
"Very good, Uncle Zhong..."
Long Xiang was about to discuss with Feng Zhong, but Tang Xu interrupted and asked: "Yun Qi, since he has decided to extend his hand, should I take more?"
"This..." Long Xiong hesitated a little.
Feng Zhong also patted his shoulder and encouraged him: "Old Tang's words are reasonable, but Lu Bu is not enough anyway, so let's just get enough money."
Long Xiang thought for a while, and finally made up his mind and said, "Then let's get two sets for each person, make up a total of 800, and leave some for Lu Bu, otherwise Han Yin will not be able to explain."
"Listen to you." Tang Xu walked out of the barracks and waited to go to the dock to pick up the goods in the evening.
Long Xiang turned his head and continued to ask Feng Zhong: "Uncle Zhong, when will the orphan that I asked you to contact you? "
"It's OK at any time, but I really want to move to Hefei?" Feng Zhong asked Long Xiang to confirm again.
Because Hefei is adjacent to Chaohu, floods often rage around the surrounding area. In addition, plagues are rampant in various places at the end of the Han Dynasty, the people of Hefei are walking and dying. Now there is almost an empty city, and Feng Zhong does not understand why Long Xiang is going against the rules.
Long Xiang said seriously: "That large amount of grain is easy to detect when stocking it in other places. The empty city of Hefei is just right. You will let them set off tomorrow. When you collect all the military rations in Lujiang, the time may be right."
"Okay, I'm stocking up in Hefei for the time being. With Yunqi's wisdom, I will definitely transfer it properly in the future..." Feng Zhong nodded in response.
Long Xiang smiled slightly and said that the Hefei you remembered was different from what I remember. It was the place where Zhang Liao and others were founded, and it was also the happy city of Sun Quan. When the trees fell and money scattered by Yuan Shu, Hefei was our place to live. It was absolutely right to go and lay out early.
As for Feng Zhong’s concern about the Chaohu Lake flood, Longxiang didn’t care at all. Local floods are not as difficult to treat as the Yellow River flood. As long as the river channel is dredged and flood diverts are done, fertile soil may be formed around it. In the eyes of civil engineering people, these projects are not very technically difficult.
The next morning, Longxiang led the cavalry first and headed straight for Lu'an County in Lujiang.
Feng Zhong led the infantry to follow him and took care of his fellow comrades who were heading south along the way. He and Long Xiang agreed to meet on the south bank of Shaopi (lake).
The counties in Lujiang are bounded by Lu'an. The five counties in the north, Yangquan, Liaoxian, Anfeng, Anfeng and Yulou are all equipped with waterways, and can transport grains out with ships, saving a large number of civilians for labor service. In the south, Wanxian, Juchao, Shuxian and other places need to transport grains to Lu'an by land before loading them on ships.
When Longxiang led his cavalry to Shaopi, all grain transport ships from the five counties in the northern Lujiang were moored in Shaopi and other places to receive them.
When Feng Zhong led the rear army to Shaopi, Longxiang handed over the received grain ship and secretly ordered Feng Zhong to unload the ship every night to load the vehicle, gather the families of the soldiers who went south to secretly transfer the grain to the southern part of Shaopi to hide it, and then transport it to Hefei by moving ants.
Everything was settled in Shaobi, and Longxiang led the cavalry to Lu'an to supervise the grain.
In the next half month, the grain transport trucks in the southern part of Lujiang County arrived at the sixth installation ship in a county unit. The grain ships then went to Shaopi to gather and standby, and were finally transferred and disembarked by Feng Zhong, and operated in an orderly manner like a running water operation.
Longxiang took Yan Xiang's list of grain transfers and checked with each county that came to deliver the grain. By the end of August, Juchao County was left, and the last five thousand hu were not delivered.
Seeing that the time was approaching September, Long Xiang was worried that he would drag it on, Yuan Shu would definitely urge Ji Ling to send troops. If Shouchun sent someone to supervise, he might even reveal himself, so he had different ideas.
Just as Long Xiang was hesitating, Tang Xu suddenly called Mahjong to report that the grain transport truck of Yan Juchao had been transported to southern Lu'an and could soon arrive at the Shui Wharf.
Long Xiang fell to the ground with a big rock in his heart, and pointed forward with a horse whip in his hand, saying, "Please lead the way ahead. My nephew must go and ask in person why their residence in the village was delayed here, and whether they could afford to take on the military opportunity?"
"Whi." Tang Xu immediately pulled the reins and turned around after holding his fists.
Dozens of elite riders rushed to the lightning and soon arrived at Juchao Grain Team. Seeing the grain transport truck moving forward slowly, Long Xiong's anger came without any trouble.
Long Xiang frowned and gave Tang Xu a wink. Tang Xu raised his whip and threw it out in an empty voice. He scolded him with a "fox and tiger power" and said, "Where is your in charge? It's like you are moving at such a speed. No wonder it was the county that was sent to the last one. If the lord's affairs are delayed, your residence in the nest will also suffer a crime."
"Is that right?" A young man with white robes and silver armor suddenly walked out of the grain transport team behind.
Long Xiang looked at the horse and saw that the man was slender, with sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes, and his face was like a crown and jade. He stood in the crowd, like a crane among chickens, dazzling, and was completely the model of the male protagonist.
The man frowned and stared at Long Xiang. His neither humble nor arrogant eyes were filled with wisdom and arrogance, as if he had already written a draft of his mind.
"Who are you?" Tang Xu was obviously shocked by the other party's handsomeness, and the momentum of the questioning was obviously weaker than before.
"I am Zhou Yu, the chief of the resident in your mouth. I wonder what crime do you want to punish me?"
"Zhou Yu? You..."
"Brother, retreat."
If Zhou Yu hadn't reported his own family, Long Xiang wouldn't have guessed it was Zhou Yu. In the Three Kingdoms series of games he had played, shouldn't this person belong to Sun Ce's power? Why was he an official in Yuan Shu's territory at this time? Is my appearance affecting historical development, or is it like this in the original history?
In fact, Zhou Yu's father, Zhou Shang, was the prefect of Danyang at that time. He stayed in Danyang for a long time. Later, Sun Ce borrowed troops from Yuan Shu to cross the river to help Sun Ben and Wu Jing fight with Liu Yao. Zhou Yu fought with Sun Ce during this period.
Yuan Shu sent his cousin Yuan Yin to replace Zhou Shang, and Zhou Shang took Zhou Yu back to Shouchun. Zhou Yu was soon appointed as the head of Juchao. In fact, before Sun Ce broke up with Yuan Shu, the Sun family was subordinate to Yuan Shu like Sun Jian. The territory of Wu, which last three parts of the world, was actually a microcosm of Yuan Shu's power, and Eastern Wu was a continuation of Yuan Shu's power.
Since the person in front of him was Zhou Yu, it was not something that Tang Xu could deal with. Long Xiang decisively called Tang Xu, then got off the horse and clasped his fists and said, "It turned out to be Zhou Gongjin, I have heard of the name of you for a long time."
"Do you know me?" Zhou Yu bowed and frowned. He saw his eyes rolling and immediately asked: "Is it because of Long Yunqi, who was riding alone to retreat to Zhang Fei?"
"Shame, ashamed..." Long Xiang smiled and nodded, completely forgot that he was here to "suppose the crime". It was not until Tang Xu reminded him with a cough that the smile on his face turned serious.
Longxiang was not known before, but he did not make his mark in Yuan Shu's army until this year. Zhou Yu had recently communicated with Zhou Shang and learned that Qiao Rui had such a young man under his command.
Zhou Yu turned his back and said, "Is Long Sima here to ask for guilt?"
