Fall In Love with the Technology Tree

Chapter 198: ride the wind

In a shallow bay on Mian Shui, a small boat is hidden in the shore. One person, one couple, one book, and one pot on board.

The few are boxwood, the pot is black pottery glaze, and the book is a thick medical record. Nan Feng turned the yellowed pages, and vaguely read words such as "Jizhou Epidemic", "Water Evil Entering the Body" and "Rat Fungus".

The book holder turned her head sideways and looked at the weathered outer wall of Xiangyang City in the distance, but it was obvious that her attention was not on the book, nor in Xiangyang City, but on the side of the ear facing the shore— On the sand outside the boat, a black-clothed woman kneeling on one knee was talking nonstop.

The sound of wind and water drowned out most of their previous words.

"...That's how things went. According to time, the aid force led by Xu Rong arrived in Chishan seven days ago." The woman in black finally finished her last sentence and knelt on the ground. Waiting for the master's command. Her figure is thin and strong, and the wind blows a wisp of her temples, which looks a little transparent.

"The wind is blowing." Ah Sheng said suddenly.

Ashi was motionless, did not speak, and did not think. Thirty-six years of the letter, just as before.

The cuffs of the linen brushed lightly on the table, smoothing the pages that were ruffled by the wind. "You said that Xu Rong came forward on behalf of the military and facilitated the vote for the elites. What about Lu Bu?"

"Lü Bu once requested to send troops to attack the Wuyan tribe on the second day after the 'Chishan Incident', but the Liaodong Military Department rejected his proposal."

There is an old monster Duan Jiong in the Liaodong military headquarters, and he is very sober. The most important thing at the moment is not revenge, but racing against time to build Chishan City. Also cultivated in Liaodong for many years, Xu Rong learned to formulate military plans for the purpose of "rule", but Lu Bu still fought more by instinct.

It's not that Lu Bu is bad, it's just that people have different strengths. Lu Bu is suitable to be a vanguard general, and Xu Rong has already shown the aptitude to be handsome. Even if Xu Rong belonged to Cao Cao, he could not get rid of the traces of the old warlord under the rule of the army, and Ah Sheng had to lament his excellence.

"If there is any advantage of a society ruled by man, it must be extremely efficient. A bold leader can multiply the efficiency of the entire system. Xu Rong is such a person My brother is such a person, even myself, sometimes I have to play a similar role." Ah Sheng closed his eyes and muttered to himself in a low voice, "But then again, even if it's me In times of crisis, we can only rely on a few people to make decisions. This is... what is called... 'taking the trust of the people...will become the decisiveness of the people'... is it..."

"Master, I didn't hear clearly." A Shi's rigid voice interrupted her, "My hearing has weakened, please explain more clearly."

A Sheng smiled, and raised his hand to make A Shi stand up: "I have nothing to say to you, let's go back together."

The black-clothed woman stood up staunchly and disappeared into the bushes. Ah Sheng was stunned for a while, and it took him a long time to remember to whistle to call back the scattered guards.

"Is she having a temper?" Ah Sheng caught a guard from the spy department and asked.

The young man was embarrassed and rubbed the handle of the knife: "How can it be? Boss Shi is not a person... No no, Instructor Shi is quite strict, I mean, she has no temper... No, she... She won't be emotional at work, yes, Instructor Shi is not that kind of childish person, she is wholeheartedly towards you."

Asheng:…

Just at this time, there was the hurried footsteps of two bear children behind the bushes. The voice came first before the person arrived, and it was a tone that forced his voice as if he had made a big mistake: "Cao Zi, Cao Zi, let's run."

Seeing this, the unfortunate espionage guard who came from the spy department quickly slipped away, specially picked the farthest position to watch, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Asheng:…

However, Zhuge Liang and Lu Meng had already run to the front, forcing her to give them her attention. The two children were out of breath, no longer the worldly masters before Huang Shuo and Pang Degong. "Cao Zi, don't stay here for a long time." Zhuge Liang said, "Amon is not careful, Pang Degong and Huang Chengyan should both suspect our identity."

Amon has been tricked by the younger brother too many times, and he has already formed a conditioned reflex: "Huang Chengyan, I think that the elder brother's pot is at Pang Degong, and you are still playing chess with the little girl."

Zhuge Liang: ... Junior brother, you have changed, you are no longer that stupid junior brother who took the blame. Xiao Liang, who felt that things were right and wrong, could only forcibly change the topic: "Today Liu Biao came to Yuliangzhou, and Jingzhou is urgently recruiting troops, I am afraid that Xiangyang will change."

A Sheng looked up at his pretentious old disciple. He was wearing a short patched burlap coat, and his trousers were not too cold when rolled up to his calf. Since traveling with Ah Sheng, he has only spent a few days at Sun Ce's place to sneak around. At other times, he is either sunbathing or driving a car, or fishing or boating. Now he is working as a refugee, working all the way to make his palm grow. After several calluses, even the originally fair complexion was a little tanned. But Zhuge Liang never said a single bitter word, and on the surface he was still a bear boy who liked to bully his junior and junior brothers.

"Then let's set off, the south wind is blowing. With the wind and the current, you can reach Wancheng in one day."

"Cao Zi is so talkative today?" Xiao Liang jumped on the boat and took the initiative to help her clean up the guys on the low table.

"The person you want to meet has already met."

"The person I want to meet is Pang Degong? Or Huang Chengyan? Anyway, I don't think it's Liu Biao. You can see how Liu Biao is when you look at Xiangyang's rule. You don't need to see each other."

"Neither." Ah Sheng glanced at Zhuge Liang with a half-smile.

Xiao Liang only felt a chill on her back, and quickly accelerated the movement of her hands. He and Lu Meng carried the water bottle and the book, and the low table together. In the blink of an eye, the stalls under the boat were tidy up, and two packs of uneaten beef were also thrown into the lockers below the deck. The guards gathered, extinguished the bonfire, wiped out the trail, and finally dragged the previously hidden boats from the reeds, a total of six or seven boats.

The paddle slid across the water, rippling across the water, until it left the shallow waters and came to the dark surface of the Mian River.

The wind was cold, whistling, pushing the boat upstream from behind. It can't compare to the strong wind that blows them here, but it is already terrifyingly fast. After a while, Ah Sheng and the others bypassed the river bend, and they could see the expanding naval camp in the distance. The vague figures are the people who carry the burdens, the overseers who wield the whips, and more likely the navy soldiers on guard.

"If this barracks is repaired, the entire waterway of the Mianjiang River will be cut off. It will be difficult to leave then."

Even now, there is a lot of trouble. Because sentinels have seen their fleet and are greeting their colleagues.

A dozen pairs of eyes looked at Ah Sheng. "Master, what should I do?"

"Hang the sail, get on the mechanical oars, and dash across."

The two-foot-long wooden boat hangs the sails. The wind filled the sails in an instant, and even the masts creaked as if they were about to bend at any moment. It was so scary, the boat was small and windy and easily capsized.

But at the same time the speed effect is immediate. As the mechanical paddles entered the water, the fleet was even faster as if it were flying on water. The sentry of the Jingzhou Water Army Camp had just invited Cai Mao, and before anyone had reached the observation deck, Ah Sheng's small wooden boat rushed in front of him.

"Who is on the boat?" Cai Mao shouted. The elder brother-in-law of Huang Chengyan and Liu Biao was so nervous that he drew his sword. The swarming archers hurriedly drew their bows, aiming at the inconspicuous civilian boats on the river.

A Sheng stood at the bow of the boat, the roaring airflow made one side of the clothes hem tightly against her ankle, and the other side bulged like a letter d. But she has a good-looking face, and her fluttering hair does not diminish her demeanor. "I am Cao Zhonghua from Qiao, and I stopped here because of the cold current on the road. There have been many disturbances before. Today, the south wind has picked up, so I will say goodbye. If there is a future, I will definitely report it."

Cai Mao was shocked: "Stop her, that's Cao Cao's younger brother." But then he hesitated again, "No, don't stop, it's too much to be offended, it's going to start a war."

After these two sentences were said, seven small wooden boats lined up in a herringbone shape rushed through the blockade of the water army camp.

"Put... let go... let go of your mother!" Cai Mao yelled, scaring the two soldiers to loosen the strings, and the arrows bounced straight out. Cai Mao only felt that her heart had stopped. My darling, Tao Qian's lesson was only half a year ago. This is Yanzhou's treasure.

One arrow fell into the river, and the other arrow hit the bow of the boat by accident. Ah Sheng kicked the arrow with no killing intent and smiled slightly. She threw her hands on the bank: "Concession."

The boat has gone half a mile and can no longer pursue it.

Cai Mao held the hands of the personal soldiers and watched those small wooden boats disappear on the northern river with a complicated expression.

The upper reaches of the Mianjiang River is Wancheng under the occupation of Cao Cao; to the north of Wancheng is Xu County.

After crossing the border, the dangerous sails were lowered, only the mechanical oars were still flapping in the water, but the mechanical energy stored in the huge clockwork group was gradually exhausted. There's no diesel engine, so it's a makeshift item.

Lü Meng and Zhuge Liang stuck their heads out of the cabin and looked at the green mountains and rivers on both sides of the strait. "Cao Zi, where are we going next?"

"After seeing the misty rain in the south, how about you accompany me to see the snow in the north?"

"That's a good feeling." Lu Meng replied indifferently, "I have never been to Dahe in my life."

Zhuge Liang was as sharp as ever: "Is it about to go to war in Jizhou? Should we be stationed in Xuxian, or should we join forces with Duke Cao's army? I think it will benefit both at this time."

"Dividing will benefit both..." Ah Sheng repeated his words, then smiled at Luo Chi, "Look at what Ah Liang said."

Luo Chi stuffed the burnt hand stove into Ah Sheng's hands, and wrapped her in a cloak before saying, "Young Master Zhuge is talented and beautiful, but we are not stationed in Xu County, nor will we be with you. Dalang together."

Zhuge Liang tightened his eyebrows when he heard the words: "Is it going to Qingzhou? There is a front line bordering Yuan Shao. Before Yuan Shao's eldest son Yuan Tan led an army to attack Pingyuan County. But if Yuan and Cao fought decisively , Pingyuan's strategic role has been greatly reduced. I don't think Yuan Shao will split his troops to attack Qingzhou, although he is stupid, he will not be so diametrically opposed."

Asheng looked at him.

Zhuge Liang was immersed in his own thoughts and didn't notice her gaze: "It's not Qingzhou, it won't be Qingzhou, where are you going?"

"Aliang, you said before that you wanted to learn to handle official documents, and I agreed."

"What?" Zhuge Liang woke up from his thoughts and turned to an unbelievable smile, "Really? I thought it would take a few years to get it."

"Well." Ah Sheng turned around and entered the cabin, leaving a fluttering sentence, "Really talented."

Aliang waited for her to close the door before shaking Lu Meng's hand vigorously: "Did you hear? Cao Zi praised me."

"Yes, yes. Congratulations, brother."

So Zhuge Liang's smile became more public, and it seemed that Lu Meng was really hurt. He couldn't help but wake up his little brother: "So where are we going?"

Zhuge Liang: ? ? ?

"You were distracted by Cao Zi."

Zhuge Liang: Wang, Cao Zi, you are playing with me again.
