Jijin, as its name suggests, is a ferry in the lower reaches of the river. Near the riverside, the sand and sand accumulated for thousands of years has formed a flat and solid ground. However, due to the heavy salt brine, there are only a few thorn bushes, allowing the locals to raise some goats and pick wolfberry, but there are no farms and crops, so there are few cities and towns.

This is also the main communication road connecting Jin State and the southern states of Wei State, Lu State, Song State and other feudal lords in Puji and Huaisi. It is controlled by the people of the State of Wei, and dozens of ships of various sizes are tied to the ferry on the south bank covered with several cottages. Hejin officials guarded.

On the land of Yanzhou between the rivers and the Ji, Qufu, the city of Lu, has changed a little with the change of officials and the arrival of Confucius. Emperor Qiu sang Pushang's extravagant voice every day, and Taoqiu, the economic center, was once a month. Great changes, but the remote Jijin is almost always the same.

until the outbreak of war.

Under a large weeping willow tree that was half immersed in the water, a unique boat was moored. While chewing the dried fish, the old Jin official babbled about old things to his daughter, who was growing up and was weaving and fishing.

"Since the end of November of the previous year, the Zhao family and the Fan family fought on the other side and drowned more than 100 people, including a Jin gentleman, and there has been an uneasy life on both sides of the river. Last year, Wei Guo met with Jin State has fought wars, and I don’t know how many times I have come and gone. I have seen many soldiers in the past few decades, I have not seen as many soldiers as last year, and this year, I am afraid it will be even more serious.”

Compared to usual, there is an extra brigade of soldiers sent from Diqiu to guard here. The general camped outside the ferry port, took all the ferry boats from the north bank to the south, and sent people in turn to monitor the movement on the other bank vigilantly, for fear of an enemy coming. attack.

The fishermen and boatmen asked each other, but even the guards didn't know the specific situation. All they knew was that after the king's order, the Wei and Jin states went to war again. This hurts people on both sides of the strait. The usual endless stream of merchants also stopped. It is said that most of their motorcades were recruited on the spot and used as military vehicles.

Before the river was frozen, the Jin girl with healthy skin sewed up the leak, and the long-legged gull and heron were walking in the shallow water around the ferry dock in search of fish and shrimp, and suddenly cried out vigilantly.

The Weiguo soldiers who had been guarding the doze all day on the shore were woken up by the chirping of the birds, and stood up abruptly. Carefully holding up the bow and arrow and the spear, "Enemy attack?" "Enemy attack" kept shouting.

The **** the boat also put down her fishing needle. He raised his eyebrows, squinted for a while, and said, "Aweng, there is someone from the other side."

...

The number of visitors was less than 200, and a clear banner was displayed. It turned out that it was not the Jin people who came, but their dress still made the Wei people nervous.

Jian-faced, black-toothed carved inscriptions, but the crown is shackled... These are the signs of the barbarians in the south, which are quite different from the image of the people in the Central Plains.

Finally, the guards were relieved. There was also a Chinese youth with a crown over there holding a scepter made of bamboo and adorned with yak tail hair.

He smiled brightly, and spoke politely and respectfully: "Wu people return to the country, and they pass through your land. I told the monarch of your country a few months ago that when Wu people return to the south, they will use the way. There is a token here, please fulfill your promise and send We will cross the river by boat."

It turned out that this was the envoy of Wu who entered Jin from Zheng and Zhou in July and August, and the people who came to negotiate the matter of crossing the river were the gentlemen of the south who had already been transformed by Ji Zihua of Yanling.

There was also a warrior of Wu State who came with him. This man is not tall, but he is strong and brave. Different from the etiquette and custom of the Huaxia hair-bearing crown, his hair is about a foot long, broken into short hair, combed into a short vertebra, and his face has a pattern in the shape of a double fish. The word Bo fish.

"Everything is fine in Zhuxia, but it's too cold. I'm returning south this time, and I swear I will never cross the river north again..." Yanyan complained to himself when he was negotiating with Weiren.

Compared with the old-fashioned Song State, the wealthy and fragile Cao State, the cunning Zheng State, and the old-fashioned Cheng Zhou, the customs and human feelings of Jin State are actually more suitable for crucian carp. Tang Feng, who is mixed with Rong and Di, is vast and thick, Mizi wine that burns by the Fen River, and the martial and high-spirited children of Liuqing.

And in the days when the Zhao family went to the palace, he was even more attracted to Zhao Yang, the heroic second Qing, and finally understood why the Zhao family had such a character as Zhao Wuxi.

A tiger son must have a tiger father!

But that was before the cooler weather in winter.

Zhu Zhuan carp was born in the hot and cold land in the south of the Yangtze River. He has never seen the coldness of snow, and he has never experienced the cold weather in the north. Compared with the short armor and short brown when he entered Jin in August, now in the north wind, he is tightly wrapped in the fur and fur coat presented by the Zhao family of Jin, but he is still shivering from the cold by the river. I can't stomp my feet anymore. In the Northland, I have to learn to walk on warm shoes lined with leather.

He shivered, cursing the ghostly weather in the north in grumbled Vietnamese. This Wu warrior who once longed to conquer the princes of the northern land for the King of Wu, now has a cold nose, and is as embarrassed as a sick tiger.

Without the rhetoric when he first came out, he is more like a wild geese returning from the south, just like the Wu people who huddled together on the other side to keep warm.

Therefore, when Zhuan, who was eager to return to his hometown, heard Yanyan and the Weiguo brigade commander talking for a long time, but the other party still hesitated and refused to send a boat, he was instantly furious.

"thief!"

He was no longer afraid of the cold, he threw off the fluffy fur on his body with one hand, and pressed a few steps towards the Wei Guolu Commander who was almost jumping up in fright, touching the fish intestine sword at his waist and scolding him fiercely. One could understand what he was saying.

Yan Yan took the opportunity to pick up the useful words and translated: "This Hu Ben is a doctor under the State of Wu, and he has condescended to cross the river to ask your little brigade commander for a ferry. reason?"

The brigade commander glanced at the old Jin official who was buried in his head and did not dare to speak, and said with a bitter face: "Your envoy, calm down, the doctor in the court also instructed him on this matter, but the Jin Wei hadn't started a war at that time. It is different now, your envoy has just returned from Jin. When the country returns, the officials have to send someone to Linyan City to report..."

"How long will it take?"

"Go back and forth for thirty or forty miles, and enter...it's just at night."

At night time? It was only afternoon, which meant that the people of Wu had to freeze by the river for most of the day.

After listening to Yanyan's translation, Zhuanyan jumped into a rage again: "If we delay for a while, all the warriors in the south will be frozen into ice lollies! The pedestrians from the Wu State opposite are the high-ranking doctors in the middle school, how can they wait for a long time in this wild field. !"

Yan Yan also complained: "Exactly, the weather is gloomy today, and it is about to rain. There are precious gifts in our motorcade that we want to dedicate to the monarch of your country, as well as all your ministers. How does the wind and rain make it? Let the merchants and craftsmen transport it first, and if there is any damage, then we can only say that it is because of your obstruction under the thorns..."

Zhuan Crucian also continued to threaten: "The gigantic state of Chu has been penetrated by our great traveller and military commander Sun Wuzi. If the state of Wei neglects the envoys, it is impossible for the king to bring 100,000 armors to watch the soldiers next year. It's time to make Wei Wu blame for evil. Can you afford it!"

That Weiguo brigade commander was just a little sergeant, who had never seen such a scene before. Under the persuasion of Yanyan's good words and the coercion of Zhuan's bad words, he had to agree to be accommodating. First, Qu Wuji, a well-known merchant of Wu State, brought merchants, craftsmen, etc. to cross the river with gifts, and warmed himself up with a bowl of hot fish soup.

...

The wide river is gurgling, and now is the dry season, so there are many sandbars in the river, but in terms of width, this river is still the largest in the north. Only the great river where the southern state of Wu is located can match it.

Two great rivers, two different ways of life for both farming, a civilization created by millet and a civilization created by rice.

To **** the envoys of the great powers to cross the river, it is natural to send the most decent-looking and most stable ships, so the old Jin official was named by the brigade commander. His sixteen-year-old daughter, who was wearing a bamboo hat and buried her face in the robe, also accompanied her with a pole.

Penthouses by the big river have low roofs. The space is wide, there is no complicated craftsmanship, and the inland people demean them as broken houses built on rafts. In fact, except for the poorest and humble fishermen, everyone worked hard to paint the boats beautifully, and among them, the boat of the Laojin official's family was the cleanest and most decent, thanks to his skillful and careful daughter.

The ship in front of me was painted in different shades of black. The wooden tiller was carved into cormorants, the railings were carved with fish patterns, and its deck was piled with poles, ropes, and water jugs.

In addition, there is a simple little sail called a "canopy", and two bamboo poles hold up a sheet of leather cloth. This object was found in the Eastern Han Dynasty, which was recorded hundreds of years later.

When the "Wu State Pedestrian" with a high crown and black clothes, wrapped in bear fur and with a long sword on his waist, boarded the deck. The old Jin official could not help frowning.

He had been sent to him for so many years. Doctor Qing and even the monarch had seen dozens of them, but the one in front of him was a little different. It made him feel strange. Not like the graceful pedestrian doctor. So he gave his daughter a cautious wink, and while propping up the pole, he sang a fisherman's song as before, or talked about local customs, as if to make the nobles happy and ask for some rewards.

But "Wu Guoxingren" had a straight face from beginning to end, staring at the situation on the other side and behind him, and just gave him a cold look.

The old Jin official was even more sure that there was a problem.

Dozens of boats from Jixia Ferry sailed to the north bank in unison, and let the "merchants", "craftsmen" and "lichens" who were driving chariots and horses with heavy utensils on them boarded the boats.

Seeing this scene on the big boat welcoming the "Wu State Pedestrians", Lao Jin's bald brows furrowed even tighter, just because the Wu State warriors were holding short swords around him, so he didn't dare to pronounce.

On the wet surface of the south bank, the crucian carp did not put on his fur coat again, but exhaled white air, shirtless to meet the north wind, and the ships that were breaking the waves, saying in Wu language: "They are coming. …”

"Of course, the plan is done." Yan Yan's mood is more complicated. This kind of thing is not what he wants to see, but since Doctor Qu promised, as a subordinate, he has to do it.

"I will try to kill as few people as possible. We have done what we promised Zhao Qing!"

...

In the moment of going back and forth between the two sides of the Taiwan Strait, there was no accident.

It was not until the boat docked smoothly that the old Jin official whispered something in his daughter's ear. The young girl bit her lower lip and shook her head, but was pinched hard by the old Jin official, and then she hid in the cottage with tears in her eyes.

The old Jin official casually walked over to the Weiguo Brigade Commander who was smiling and was going to greet the "Wu State Pedestrian", stopped him, and said a few words casually with a smile as usual.

The brigade commander of the state of Wei was suddenly stopped from his way. He was a little angry at first. After listening to the description of the old Jin official, his expression was weird. He looked at the pedestrian in Wu State, then at the old Jin official, and finally waved his hand.

"Ridiculous! Hurry up and stop talking nonsense here."

Then he ignored the persuasion of the old Jin official, and walked towards the "Wu State Pedestrian" with a smile on his face. When he bowed to greet him, he was greeted by a bright red long sword that passed through his body!

When he fell to the ground, there was still an incredible expression deep in his dull pupils. His hands tightly grasped the deep clothes of "Wu Guoxingren" and fell to the ground with the bearskin fur and silk deep clothes, revealing pure black armor. Clothes!

"Zhao's black-clothed Zheng Long is here!" The secretary of the black-clothed bodyguard, Zheng Long, held his sword and howled, as if it was a signal. Dozens of merchants, craftsmen, ministers, soap-clothed merchants poured out from the pole boat behind him. Below, wrapped in black armor, all equipped with daggers and crossbows.

At the moment when the commander was stabbed by a sword, all the defending soldiers on the south bank were stunned.

This was a plot to seize the ferry, and in the name of the envoys of Wu State, which the guards feared, hid the elite soldiers in black from the Zhao clan.

But the guards who lost the brigade commander still had as many as four or five hundred people. If they were all pressed together, they would still be able to drive these Zhao soldiers, who were only one-tenth of their own, into the river.

But they were doomed to fail. The opponent was the most elite Zhao clan in black, a group of retainers and dead soldiers that Zhao Yang painstakingly created. The five of them formed a team, jumped off the bow one after another, and pierced the defending soldiers who had reacted~www.wuxiaspot.com~ and then moved in the miscellaneous goods, spears and crossbows, and actually defended at the ferry.

Zhuan Crucian also overthrew two guard soldiers who were eager to get up, but did not use the fish intestine sword.

This sword is an artifact that contains his father's soul. It is used to kill princes, and even ordinary officials are not worthy of being killed by it!

"Bo Yu, come here! It's none of our business after that!" Yan Yan had quietly retreated to a safe place. Those Wu people who were following the "Wu Guo Xingren" turned a blind eye to the battle that took place, and all surrounded Yan Yan. Protect him by your side.

The crucian carp was blown by the cold wind again, and he sniffed, but he couldn't smell the long-lost smell of blood, so he washed his sword by the water angrily, and returned to Yanyan's side after being sheathed, letting him out of the battle.

These real Wu people agreed to participate in the plan, but were unwilling to bleed for the Zhao family. They returned to the boat, while Lao Jin Li and the rest of the boatmen were forced by Jian Ge, propped up the boat pole, and returned to the north shore again.

Above the river, the gulls and herons were so frightened that they flew all over the sky. In the vast wilderness on the north bank, the wind was thundering, and the black birds and flags were all over the place. It was the black army of the Zhao clan... (To be continued.
