Activate the Emperor System and summon Dian Wei at the beginning of the game

"That's the way it is."

Li Luo nodded, and then said: "However, King Huai is worried about this. If the Huaihe River is introduced into Huainan, then the imperial court can transport troops southward by water in one day."

"I see!"

A look of surprise appeared on Ning Fan's face. He stood there for a long time and said softly: "Go, prepare a small boat. Let's take a boat to Jiangnan today!"

"promise!"

Li Luo bowed respectfully and walked to the river. After talking to a fisherman, he let Ning Fan pass.

"Your Highness!"

"Um!"

Ning Fan nodded lightly and pulled Xiao Longnu onto the boat. Li Luo held a bamboo pole in his hand and supported the boat upstream.

"Li Luo, I heard that you are from Jiangnan?"

"Exactly!"

"I have always heard that there are many talented people in Jiangnan. Have you ever heard of the talented people in Jiangnan?"

"Your Highness, in the south of the Yangtze River, there are many talented people who have read poetry and books, and there are also famous Confucian scholars, all of whom have articles and poems that have been passed down to the world. But when it comes to truly talented people, I really don't know."

"Most of them are just people who have their own names, and there are also people who are just pretending to be famous. They are able to spread their names in Jiangnan because of their background and mutual praise."

Ning Fan smiled, looking at the beautiful scenery along the river, with a smile on his face: "It's rare to go out for some entertainment. I'm afraid I'll have to go to Dali in person before long."

"Li Luo, is it possible to travel seventy miles backward before sunset?"

"able!"

Li Luo nodded without hesitation, and swung the bamboo pole in his hand suddenly, pouring a wisp of internal energy into it, and the boat flew up the river.

"Your Highness, there is a situation."

"Um."

When Li Luo spoke, Ning Fan also saw it. On the river in front of him, eight large ships were sailing down the river. Under the fluttering flags, he could vaguely see the shadows of people moving on board.

"It's the White Sail Water Thief!"

"Your Highness, this group of thieves has been entrenched in the Huaihe River area for many years. Their stronghold is secretive and they have gathered thousands of people. They have been plundering caravans and robbing homes along the Huaihe River all year round."

"Should we turn around?"

Hearing Li Luo's words, Ning Fan showed a look of surprise on his face and said softly: "This group of thieves can actually gather so many ships. Judging from their size, I am afraid that even the county governor's office will be afraid of them." Divide it!”

"good!"

"This group of thieves has been wandering on the river all year round, and most of them are people who are good at water. Even if the government wants to encircle and suppress them, they are unable to do so."

"However, they will not annoy the government. They will only intercept goods but not kill people."

Ning Fan's face showed a hint of excitement. He looked at the eight large ships in front of him and raised the corners of his mouth slightly: "If you want to sleep, someone will send you a pillow."

"Li Luo, come up to meet him."

"Your Highness?"

There was a look of worry on Li Luo's face. Even though he had martial arts skills, he could barely protect himself in the face of thousands of people. If he really pissed off this group of people, he might not be able to take advantage.

"No problem!"

"I have my eyes on this group of thieves. If we can recruit them, they will be the prototype of a navy army!"

Ning Fan's eyes were filled with ambition. Sooner or later, he would build a naval army. Not to mention an expedition on the vast sea, he would definitely make a voyage just for the sake of the small Japanese slave country on the East China Sea.

It's just that I have never found a suitable opportunity. Now, since this group of water thieves has come to my door, there is no reason to let it go.

"Stop the boat!"

Ning Fan stood up straight, looking at the eight giant ships that were gradually approaching, and slowly put his hands on his back. Xiao Longnu also stood up and stood on his side.

"Be bold!"

"Who dares to block the path of my white sail water thief?"

"I, the water thief, will not kill ordinary people, so get out of the way!"

Hearing the shouts on the boat, Ning Fan raised his eyebrows. He couldn't help but glance at them and said with a smile: "I am here to discuss a business with you. Who is the talker?"

"Whoosh!"

An arrow came straight towards Ning Fan's small boat. A burly man on the big boat stepped forward and said loudly: "Don't give me a toast and eat as a penalty. Who are you?"

"presumptuous!"

Li Luo shouted loudly and slashed down the flying arrows with his sword, a cold look on his face.

Ning Fan chuckled softly, moved his feet, and the boat under his feet swayed slightly. He stood up and walked on the water, like an immortal from the sky, his clothes fluttering, and he headed straight for the oncoming ship. go.

When Xiao Longnu saw this, she immediately stood up and followed Ning Fan. Li Luo's face was full of shock. He knew that His Highness had martial arts, but he didn't expect that he could reach this level. Waiting state.

At this time, the small boat was at least twenty feet away from the eight large ships. Even he did not dare to try it easily. But judging from His Majesty's calm and calm look, could he be a... martial arts master?

The white-sail thieves on the boat seemed to have noticed Ning Fan's extraordinary qualities, with a look of vigilance on their faces.

"Archers prepare!"

"Wait!"

The burly man was about to give the order to release the arrow, when he saw a middle-aged man dressed as a scribe striding out. He calmly watched Ning Fan and Ning Fan fall in front of him and slightly held his hands.

"Baifan Water Village, Qu Linjiang has met you two."

"It's polite!"

Ning Fan nodded slightly and said with a smile: "It is not easy to pull up such a huge force in this rich land south of the Yangtze River."

"I wonder who is the speaker?"

"That's it!"

Qu Linjiang bowed again and said softly: "I am the second in command of the Water Stronghold, thanks to the care of my brothers. What is your name, young master?"

"It doesn't matter what you call me." Ning Fan smiled, took Xiao Longnu's hand and stepped forward: "I came here for you all."

"Come for us?"

Qu Linjiang showed a look of surprise on his face, and looked at Ning Fan and said: "Young master, are you from an official family?"

"Oh?"

Ning Fan smiled unexpectedly: "How do you know?"

"With such a demeanor as the young master, he should be a person who has been in a high position for a long time. Judging from the young master's clothes, he is obviously from a wealthy family, and he is accompanied by masters. I think his identity must be extraordinary."

"I didn't expect that a little Among the little pirates, there is such a great talent as you. "

"I dare not!"

Qu Linjiang's attitude was very humble, and he bowed again: "Sir, you just said that you came for us, I wonder if you..."

"Recruit!"

"Recruit?"

Before Qu Linjiang opened his mouth, the burly man who had just shot the arrow laughed and said, "Hahaha, we occupy a place and are free and easy. Looking at the entire Jiangnan area, no matter whether it is the government or the bandits, no one dares to provoke us. Why do you dare to recruit my Baifan Water Stronghold with just a few words!"

"Hahaha!"

The pirates around also laughed loudly, but Ning Fan looked at the man without anger or annoyance, and said calmly and calmly: "Just one word from me can decide your life and death!"
