Chapter 85 Marching to Poyang
During the subsequent march at a speed of forty miles a day, the soldiers' physical strength was greatly maintained.
As for Zhu Liangzu and the others, they lived a good life under Li Hao's friendly hospitality and under the service of their own generals.
Li Hao was also happy to see this situation. Anyway, as long as they did not interfere in military affairs, Li Hao was still very tolerant in other aspects.
Of course, the main reason is that it is difficult to deal with them.
After walking on land for two days, the army arrived at the Yangtze River. By this time, twenty vehicles and ships mobilized from the Shuzhou Command Camp had already docked.
The next section of the road is to cross the Yangtze River, then enter Poyang Lake, and go all the way to Jinxian County, Hongzhou to disembark and continue the land march.
However, at this time, the Yangtze River was not called Yangtze River, but Dajiang. Poyang Lake was not called Poyang Lake, but Pengli Lake. However, the change of name did not affect the boundless beauty of nature, especially when there was no pollution in ancient times.
In addition to the soldiers of the camp, the people on Li Hao's ship were Zhu Liangzu and others who were with Li Hao.
At this time, everyone gathered at the bow of the boat, looking at the scenery with emotion. Especially after entering Poyang Lake, when approaching the middle position, all you can see is water all around, as far as the eye can see.
For these Lord's children who were born in the north, this is the first time they have seen such a large lake.
As for Li Hao, although he had seen the Yangtze River and Poyang Lake when he visited Lushan in his previous life, the river surface and lakes at that time were much smaller than they are now, and they could not reflect the vastness at that time.
Just when Li Hao was comparing the differences between the two lives, he suddenly heard someone next to him writing poems with great enthusiasm, and he won the applause of everyone.
But to Li Hao's ears, this poem was really embarrassing. Not only was the poetic meaning wrong, but even the words used in the poem were wrong. It was like seeing a ghost.
Just as Li Hao was complaining secretly, someone noticed Li Hao nearby and started shouting: "Master Li is from Tanhua, so his literary talent must be far better than mine. Seeing such beautiful scenery, I think he must have done something good. How about that?"
Tell me to meet you and see you."
After hearing this, Li Hao thought to himself, aren't you hitting the hole of my bullet and giving me a chance to pretend?
But he still said humbly: "You're welcome, I got this article by accident. I'm just an ordinary person, and I can't write good poems all the time."
After hearing what Li Hao said, the eyes of the few people who really liked poetry lit up. One of them, Zhang Wen, said: "Master Li is such a talented person. His casual words are a wise saying, which is admirable."
But others didn't think so. Sun Hu saw that Li Hao seemed to be unable to write what he meant, and even more hesitantly said: "Even so, sir, you are still a prodigy, and writing casually is better than rough people like us."
If you are strong, Fei Ze will be wasting his reputation."
Seeing this, several people next to Sun Hu also started to make noises. Zhang Wen wanted to help Li Hao by saying a few words, but he had no chance to interrupt.
Seeing that the atmosphere was almost heightened at this time, Li Hao said: "In that case, I will force myself to write about it."
After saying that, he started to pace, pretending to think, but in fact he was looking through his memories and choosing poems that fit the occasion.
When he reached the seventh step, Li Hao stopped and recited a poem: "The water of the Yangtze River is turbid and the water of the lake is clear. The sound of stone bells stirs up the roar of whales. When it rains on the top of Chuyun Mountain, when will the Yangtze River calm down?"
Everyone was shocked after hearing this. They did not expect that Li Hao had really come up with a good poem. After hearing this, Zhang Wen wanted to praise a few words, but Li Hao reached out to stop him.
Because how could Li Hao let go of the opportunity to pretend so easily? Of course he had to pretend enough at once, so after taking two more steps, he continued to recite a poem: "Hong Kong and Central are divided into crosses, and Sichuan and Guangdong are also connected."
Looking around, there is no ground. A lonely boat seems to be in the sky. The dragon is collecting the huge waves, and the gulls are few and clear. Everyone is frightened before the waves are flowing. I have now posted a message."
After listening this time, everyone was surprised that they wrote two good poems in a row. When they were about to praise them, they were stopped by Li Hao again.
Li Hao then recited the third poem: "The music of Kuanglu and Pengli is linked together, and barbarian songs are played and drummed into the boat. The clouds are visible on the screen and the stone wall is clear, and the sun is broken by the mirror and the waves are round. The fishing and woodcutting mountains are beautiful, and the thieves fight in vain.
.New restraint has been added to the dispatch of commanders, and the conduct of command has been swept away by wind and smoke."
After finishing speaking this time, Li Hao said with emotion: "Hey, it's a pity that I still don't have much inspiration, so I can only do it like this to make you laugh."
Then, without waiting for the reaction of the people below, he went back to the house, leaving only the buzzing discussion among the group of people below.
After that, small boats traveled freely among the ships, spreading Li Hao's three poems to all the big ships, so that everyone knew about them.
However, Li Hao didn't know this yet, because after returning to the room, he lay down and wanted to take a rest, and ended up sleeping all night.
When Li Hao came out again, the sky was already full of stars. Looking around, the endless lake was dazzlingly different from what he saw in the daytime.
I saw the lake under the moonlight night, more like a clear sapphire, connected with the distant sky.
The shimmering lake surface was covered with a sheen like broken silver. When the wind blew gently by, it shattered the reflection of the crescent moon in the center of the lake.
It was such a beautiful scene. Just as Li Hao was immersed in the scene, Zhang Wen, Wang Yu, and Zhao Mi came over.
When the three of them approached, Li Hao realized that it was a little strange at the time, because they had been following Li Hao these days.
But in fact, he is still very proud and has an alienated relationship with Li Hao. He can respect Shangguan in person, but he never seeks out Li Hao in private.
So Li Hao asked out of curiosity: "I wonder why the three of you came to see me."
Zhang Wen, one of the three, said: "Today we listened to the three poems written by the Lord, and we were deeply impressed. Seeing that the Lord is here, we came to see him."
After hearing this, Li Hao replied: "Brother Zhang, you're too polite. I just expressed my feelings at the time. I can't really say it's a good thing."
After hearing this, Zhang Wen disagreed and even talked about the exquisiteness of the three poems with Li Hao. Wang Yu and Zhao Mi next to him couldn't help but praise him, which made a shameless person like Li Hao.
I almost blushed.
After the three of them finally finished their comments, Li Hao thought about leaving and going back to his room.
But I heard Wang Yu say: "My lord's demeanor today is amazing, but I see that my lord has gained so much limelight.
Zhu Liangzu and the others will definitely not give up, and they will definitely find a way to reduce your majesty tomorrow, and you should be careful."
When Li Hao heard this, he asked with some confusion: "This is a bit strange. How could you tell them what they are going to do?"
Zhang Wen explained: "I know that in the eyes of adults, we all think that we are all the same, but Wang Yu, Zhao Mi, I, and I also aspired to take the imperial examination, but unfortunately we failed many times, so we became disengaged.
I am impressed by what happened today, so I will tell you the truth and hope that you will pay attention."
After hearing this, Li Hao was noncommittal, but still said: "Thank you three, but no matter how many tricks they use, I will stop them one by one."
After saying that, he said goodbye and went back to his room to rest.
In the early morning of the next day, Li Hao came out of his room and saw Gu Tingye, Yang Wenyuan and others on other ships on the deck.
