Three Kingdoms

  In Jinyang City, rumors spread everywhere.

  Chen Rui, the magistrate of Dai County, was taken aback when he heard that.

Chen Rui didn't come to Jinyang for sightseeing, so he went to visit Cui Jun as soon as he came, but he didn't expect to be interrupted by Cui Hou during the discussion, and soon Chen Rui naturally realized that something must happen .

   As a result, when Chen Rui sent someone to inquire, they were speechless.

   Do you all play such big ones?

   Sure enough, country folks can’t even spend a dollar to get on the table playing this card?

  『Cui and Jia have a feud? 』

  『Jia Shijun once commented on the Cui family. How often did he suspect that "those who are praised will advance, and those who dislike will be punished"? 』

   "Oh..." Chen Rui nodded, "Understood...it seems to be really... aha? Cui sent someone to assassinate General Zhang? ! This... Who did you hear this from? 』

  The confidant sent out to inquire said: "That's what everyone on the street said... It is said that General Zhang was seriously injured and died! 』

  Chen Rui's face gradually darkened.

  『My lord, Mrs. Cui did such an inappropriate thing,』 said the confidant, "If we don't... we should leave as soon as possible!" otherwise…"

  Chen Rui frowned, "What else did you hear?" Unruly? If you really want to say this, people will roll all over the ground! 』

"Shijun... this..." The confidant hesitated for a moment, and then under Chen Rui's stern gaze, Fang lowered his voice and said, "Didn't you say that Cui's smuggling was overturned by the law of the hussars... Then the hussars confiscated Cui's Most of the trading houses spared the lives of the Cui family...the Cui family held a grudge because of this...Moreover, the things that the Cui family smuggled before were all soldiers...』

   "Hiss..." Chen Rui stared, "Shut up! 』

  The confidants bowed their heads.

  Although Chen Rui didn't really believe that Cui Shi was going to rebel, but this person has a nose and eyes, and it sounds really scary.

  What if?

   "Clean up..." Chen Rui felt that a gentleman should not stand under a dangerous wall, even if it might not look like a dangerous wall, but since the word "Dangerous" was written on the wall, "Let's go now while it's still early in the sky!" 』

  The confidant entourage responded, and was about to go down to clean up, but was stopped by Chen Rui.

"Wait a moment! 』

Chen Rui raised his head and looked at the walking postmen in the posthouse outside the yard. After pondering for a moment, he said, "There's no need to tidy up, just prepare a few horses... I'm going to play in the market place, Just bring two or three guards... The rest of the people, if nothing happens, will naturally follow up...』

  The confidant nodded repeatedly, understood what Chen Rui meant, and went down to prepare.

   When leaving the post office, the post chief came here to ask Chen Rui where he was going, and then he heard that Chen Rui and the others were going to the market for shopping, so he retreated.

  『As expected...』Chen Rui’s confidant said in a low voice, 『This is to guard against us......』

  Chen Rui hummed, and walked along the street with his confidants and two or three guards.

   I don't know if it is a psychological factor, but the pedestrians on Jinyang Street seem to be in a hurry.

  This made Chen Rui more and more nervous. He couldn't help but glanced around while walking, and wanted to leave as soon as possible. He also felt that if he galloped immediately, he might be stopped at the city gate.

  Walking horses in the city is not eye-catching, but running horses in the city for no reason will inevitably attract inspections or soldiers on duty to intercept them.

  Although Chen Rui is acting as the county guard, he has nothing to do with military affairs, and secondly, he doesn't want to attract attention, so to be on the safe side, wait until he is out of the city before riding his horse, so as not to fail...

Along the street, Chen Rui tried his best to pretend to be calm, thinking about the possibility of Cui's rebellion while walking, and even began to extend his thoughts to how Daijun should deal with it if Cui's rebellion, whether it should be given to Chang Shan Report to Xincheng, or ask Pingyang for reinforcements or something.

   While thinking, Chen Rui felt that there seemed to be a figure in front of him, shaking for a while, as if it touched a certain nerve in him, and made his heart beat violently!

  Chen Rui took a breath, grabbed the reins, and then sat on the horse's back and looked around.

  『Emissary, what’s the matter? ’ the confidant asked.

  『Some... seems to be...』 Chen Rui frowned, as if he didn't know what made him do this, "It feels... that's right, over there! 』

  Chen Rui suddenly pointed his horsewhip at a middle-aged man who came out of a street shop and was walking along the street.

  『Guo Lan! Guo Zibo! 』Chen Rui shouted suddenly, and it seemed that there were some teeth grinding sounds.

  The middle-aged man who was walking along the street seemed to have heard Chen Rui's shout, looked back slightly, his face seemed to twitch, and immediately quickened his pace, trying to leave.

  The middle-aged man was tall and thin, with a rather long face, which was quite strange.

  『Stop him! ’Chen Rui shouted, and immediately patted his horse forward.

  Seeing this, the middle-aged man naturally ran away immediately.

   Seeing Chen Rui's order, the guards following Chen Rui shouted and moved forward, blocking the man at the entrance of an alley, but it inevitably caused confusion in the surrounding scene.

   Knocked over two stalls and trampled some people's belongings.

  『Go and deal with it...』Chen Rui didn't have the heart to say anything to those people, he gave a simple order to his confidant, and then went towards the middle-aged man. His mind was occupied by some chaotic memories rolling up in his heart, "Guo Zibo! Didn't expect to see you here today! Farewell, come, no, ill, almost? ! 』

   Speaking the last few words, Chen Rui almost popped out the words from between his teeth.

  As long as the people present are not stupid, they all understand what is going on at the moment...

  So those who like to watch the excitement couldn't help but gather around.

  The thin and tall middle-aged man waved his hands again and again, "Your Excellency has admitted the wrong person!" I am not some Guo Zibo...no, not...』

  Chen Rui sneered and said, "Then, why not brighten up the sideburn on the right side of your cheek?" 』

  The middle-aged man hurriedly covered his hands and turned his face sideways.

  Chen Rui's guard grabbed him with a lunge, then turned his face, opened his hands, and lifted his drooping sideburn hair. Sure enough, there was a little finger-sized mole, which was dark and shiny.

  The crowd of onlookers let out an excited ooh sound.

  『Hoo…』Chen Rui raised his head and let out a long breath,『Guo Zibo! Heaven has eyes! It fell into my hands today! Do you remember... Do you remember Ting Niang? ! 』

When Chen Rui said the name hidden in his heart, he also stirred up the sediments in his heart at the same time. It seemed that everything around him was dyed gray at this time, and the corners of his eyes couldn't help but feel a little bit. It became red, and his voice was sharp.

  『No...I...I don’t know...I don’t know you, and I don’t know any mother...》The middle-aged man still tried to deny it.

Chen Rui jumped off the horse, held the whip tightly, and the veins in his hands twitched, "I took Najib and gave away Nazheng. I thought that Tingniang would become my wife in the autumn of that year... In the end she died! died! Ting Niang’s family returned my gift and told me not to ask further questions. I was unwilling to do so, so I went to investigate and found out that one day, a group of livestock was drinking and having fun by the stream, but they ran into Ting Niang...』

  Guo Lan shouted, "Don't do my business!" It was Chen Ziwen who did that! He was drunk himself that day, so he insisted...not me! not me! Didn't you kill him later? Isn't this matter over? ! 』

  『Chen Ziwen...』 Chen Rui nodded, 『That's right, I killed him...but you were the one who encouraged him to do evil, wasn't it? ! Said that Chen Changwen had taken a fancy to Ting Niang, and encouraged him to grab it to show his courage! 』

  Guo Lan shouted again: "It is indeed Chen Changwen..."

"no. "Chen Rui said, "I went to ask. Chen Changwen didn't know about it at all. The maid chosen for him at that time was called Ting Niang! Ting Tingzhou Xi Ting! Not Shan Zhiyuan's Ting! 』

  『…』 Guo Lan swallowed a mouthful of saliva, speechless.

  Chen Rui sneered, "You are well in Yingchuan, I really have nothing to do with you... Never thought about it, today..."

  Before Chen Rui finished speaking, someone outside the crowd of onlookers shouted and shouted, dividing the crowd into a path.

   A group of soldiers rushed in, occupying various points, and vaguely surrounded Chen Rui and others.

  Cui Jun came slowly, showing a little smile, "Chen Shijun, this is... where are you going?" Um? Who is this…"

  Guo Lan saw that Cui Jun seemed to be out of tune with Chen Rui, so he howled as if he had caught a life-saving straw, "The young one is a merchant, a merchant... He, he admitted the wrong person... Wronged, wronged..."

"..." Chen Rui looked at Cui Jun, and then at Guo Lan. He was silent for a while, and then suddenly laughed, "Ms. Arriving at the old friend... This person is the Guo family of Yingchuan. He was arrogant and domineering since he was a child, and he takes pleasure in bullying the good...but now he has become...a businessman? Doesn't Cui Shijun feel that among them...』

Cui Jun was stunned for a moment, and then the expression on his face changed. After a while, he took a deep look at Chen Rui, then turned his head and frowned and looked at Guo Lan carefully. Some smiles arched their hands towards Chen Rui and said: "That's right...Thank you Chen Shijun for pointing out the maze today!" If the matter is a little urgent, I will be rude! Come on! Take this thief away! 』

   Immediately, Cui's soldiers rushed forward, captured Guo Lan, and escorted him away.

  Cui Jun beckoned again, and called two attendants, "Shijun Chen came to Jinyang for the first time, and he may not be familiar with the market. If you want to ask, just ask these two people..."

Before Chen Rui objected, Cui Jun turned his head and asked Hao Sheng to serve Chen Rui, then bowed his hands again, pointing out clearly, "There is a thief spreading rumors in the city today, and someone has ordered the four gates to be locked... If this thief is really Yingchuan's meticulous work... There must be a future thank you! 』

   After finishing speaking, Cui Jun hurried back with his people.

  Chen Rui's confidant came to one side and whispered: "Master, now... what should I do?" 』

  Chen Rui took a breath, then let it out slowly, "What else can I do? But seek to walk on the water, not push the boat on the land...』

  …╰(‵ ′)╯…

  The drums of war roared, earth-shattering.

  The boats connected to the Jiangdong Water Village were disconnected.

  The second round of war drums sounded in succession, which was breathtaking.

   It was like poking open a hornet's nest, and densely packed walkers rushed out of the water village!

  The reason why it is called "running" is because when these walkers rushed out of the water village, their aura was like galloping horses, extremely fast!

"not good! 』

  Gan Ning was shocked when he saw this.

   The first appearance of Zouge in history was in the Battle of Chibi.

  Now it is the first time to appear in front of Gan Ning, and I don't know if it is a good thing or a bad thing.

  When there is an enchanting figure running in front of you, it is always inevitable that someone will chase after you.

  Fei Qianguan is developing new ships, which is a big stimulus for Jiangdong...

You must know that Jiangdong, as a prince who established a country by water warfare, was very proud of the importance he attached to the navy. After all, it can be said that Jiangdong inherited most of the original navy of the Han Dynasty. troops.

  The Han Dynasty crossed the sea?

   That's right.

  In the second year of Yuanfeng in the Western Han Dynasty, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty "recruited sinners to attack North Korea", and sent General Yang Servant of the building boat to the Bohai Sea with 50,000 soldiers. Judging from this record, the navy of the Han Dynasty at that time already had the preliminary capabilities of sea navigation and long-distance raids. Later, in the ninth year of Jianwu, Emperor Guangwu of the Eastern Han Dynasty, when General Fubo Ma Yuan attacked Jiaozhi, he used "more than 2,000 boats in the size of buildings". , and in defending the frontier against the enemy and calming down the Quartet's war, it has a role that cannot be ignored.

   It's just that the navy was indeed too expensive, so after Guangwu in the Han Dynasty, the size of the navy began to shrink due to various reasons, and it gradually disappeared from historical records.

  The last part of the navy of the Han Dynasty fell into the hands of Jiangdong.

  As early as when Sun Ce crossed the river and captured the six counties in the east of the Yangtze River, the navy played a significant role. At that time, Sun Ce pursued Wang Lang from Kuaiji "Fuhai to Dongye" and defeated him. Afterwards, Sun Ce attacked Liu Xun in the west and "received more than 2,000 soldiers and 1,000 ships" respectively. Later, he broke through Jiangxia and obtained "more than 6,000 ships." Since then, the strength of Jiangdong's navy has been greatly improved, and Jiangdong's navy boat divisions have been on the Yangtze River for many years.

  The Jiangdong navy commanded by Huang Gai is undoubtedly the most powerful water combat force of the Han Dynasty so far.

   Zou Ge is Sun Shiwan, or a new type of warship developed under the leadership of Sun Shiwan.

   This kind of warship is somewhat like the dragon boat of later generations with a cover. With a long and narrow hull and more soldiers than soldiers, it surpasses most ships in speed.

  Sun Shiwan is also researching another kind of ship, an enlarged version of the building ship, which is said to be able to accommodate more than 3,000 people...

  Sun Shiwan also uttered bold words to build a big ship that can accommodate 5,000 people to fight. Pay attention to fighting, not just riding. Its name is also very simple, it is called "Da Ship"...

  However, even if Huang Gai failed to bring out the "big boat", just walking the boat almost made Gan Ning's heart skip a beat!

  『Get upstream! Gan Ning roared, and issued the first adjustment command, "Order all ships to grab positions upstream!" 』

  Gan Ning also has rich experience in water warfare. The moment Huang Gai dispatched his scouts, he understood Huang Gai's tactical arrangement.

The walker is so small, the speed is so fast, and there don't seem to be many soldiers, so it must not be used for direct frontal combat, but for interception and outflanking, and most of the navy rushing out from behind are the main force !

  Huang Gai wanted to eat him in one go!

  Jiangdong water village first and second...

   No, this old guy didn't play the first tom, but directly played the second and third tom!

   And they are still playing consecutively, what does this mean?

  Jiangdong has long been prepared, and all the soldiers are already on standby on the boat!

  The most basic order for the navy to go out to battle is to beat the drum, "Once the drum is beat, all the officials will be strict!" 』

  『Beat the drums again, Shiwu will be on the boat, all holding oars and paddles, each holding weapons, each in his own place, with banners, flags and drums, each will follow the boat! 』

  『Drumming three links, large and small warships, the first time to send out, left can not be right, right can not be left, front and rear are not easy, those who disobey the order will be beheaded! 』

  In order to catch people by surprise, Huang Gai directly hid the first drum, then beat the second drum and the third drum in succession, and jumped out!

Now the fleet of Gan Ning's fleet is a little scattered because they are avoiding the attack of the catapults in the Jiangdong water village, and the formation is not neat, while Huang Gai and others are walking along the edge of the river, rushing forward like swordfish. Chong, in a blink of an eye they are going to go hand in hand!

"That's too late! 』

  Gan Ning's heart sank.

   This was the first time Gan Ning saw this kind of boat walking, so he inevitably misjudged the speed of these small boats.

  Although Gan Ning's boats were trying their best to move upstream, they couldn't win these small boats!

   Walk as fast as a galloping horse, and fly like a gull on the water!

   There are many kinds of battles on the water, and what Gan Ning is best at is naturally boarding battles.

   The second is collision.

   After all, you have to collide first, and then there will be chaotic battles.

Warship collision is to use the ramming angle of one's own ship to collide with the vital parts of the enemy's ship, causing the enemy's ship to quickly lose its combat effectiveness. At the same time, it will also intersect with the opponent's ships. Shoot down and kill the opponent's Jiangdong soldiers one by one like dumplings.

   Now, Huang Gai also knows that Gan Ning is good at these two aspects, so he simply avoids him, using the long to strike the short!

  The strength of the Jiangdong navy is not to compete with Gan Ning in surface combat ability, but to compete with the cooperative organization!

   Just right, this is the weakness of the Sichuan and Shu naval forces.

  For the "Ge Laozi", they are not afraid of a frontal battle. Whether it is a rabbit, a cow, a sheep, or a pig into the water, they can go down anyway, but if they bypass the front, they will only be fans...

  Because of the current terrain, it is quite special.

  The waterway of the Yangtze River, although Zigui is not the narrowest, but it is always restricted by the two banks, and the second is the direction of water flow. The upper stream poses a huge threat to the lower stream. Those who occupy the upper stream can attack the downstream at any time. With the help of the current, they can choose a suitable angle to ram the enemy boat.

Huang Gai was like an old tortoise when he didn't make a move, even though Gan Ning was beating outside, he wouldn't move, but once he waited for Huang Gai to make a move, he was as fast as a tiger, not only disrupting Gan Ning's rhythm, but also He also opened his mouth wide, making it clear that he wanted to surround Gan Ning and eat them all!

"Collide! The whole army leans to the left! Gan Ning yelled, and issued the second command, "Bump over!" Get to the shore! Hit those boats! 』

  Gan Ning understood that if he continued to follow Huang Gai's rhythm, he would die!

   Combat must not follow the rhythm of the enemy!

  Use the advantage of your own ship to hit or oppress these walking boats, destroying the long oars and hulls of the walking boats!

Otherwise, after these walking boats in Jiangdong seize the upstream position, they will definitely turn around and go down. At that time, the speed of the walking boats and the assistance of the water flow will make Gan Ning's boats like targets. Jiangdong Zouge has no ability to resist!

It is unacceptable for Gan Ning and others to be bumped into by these walkers, or simply exchange one for one, or be exchanged for two for one, let alone Gan Ning also saw that in some There is also a brazier on the deck of the walker!

  This means that Jiangdong is on the top of the boat, and there may also be kerosene!

  Running can't win and going away, so under such circumstances, disrupting Huang Gai's arrangement and using the big to suppress the small is Gan Ning's only strategy to break the game.

   Unfortunately, Huang Gai also knew that Gan Ning could only do this...
