Chapter 272 Occupation that the literati don't mention: tracker
For ancient wars with backward agriculture, robbing grain is really a good opportunity for every general to dream of getting a rare boss. Once the opponent's military ration is robbed and killed, it will not only be a few times the benefits of amplifying the results of the battle, but it is very likely to decide the outcome of a battle in an instant.
So under normal circumstances, the closer the food and grass are to the front line, the stronger the military strength of protecting grain.
So although Gan Ning said it very easily, Wang Qiang is still very knowledgeable, which is both exciting and excited. What is exciting is that once the food problem of thousands of beauties in the painting is solved, it will be able to grow beautiful rice in the rice fields and be self-sufficient. What is exciting is that the stronger the military force the other party escorted, the happier our army will be!
As for the failure of the action?
That’s right, Liu Bei reminded him of his mentality of dealing with failure. Wang Qiang’s mentality is very simple. If he fails to fight a surprise attack here, will he still need to fight the next one going out to sea to attack the stick nest? No need to play, it means that he is not the material, and he is destined to be eliminated by history to wash and sleep. So there is nothing to deal with, and meeting is just a fight!
So what Gan Ning had to do was to lower the Jinfan and slow down in the river and wait for the other party. Although Gan Ning was the kind of cruel man who dared to attack the Cao army camp at night with eight hundred people, the other party was also a time traveler after all, and the one who was not sure to protect the food was also a cruel man, so he still wanted to be stable and did not rush to the dock directly to grab it.
As long as it reaches the river, Gan Ning's chances of victory cannot be compensated by the opponent's troops.
At this time, beacons were also lit in the small town in the distance, and they finally saw the beacons on Zigui.
Wang Qiang was a little confused: "Will the grain ship opposite not come?"
Gan Ning frowned and said uncertainly: "It's just that the beacon has passed. As long as the defeated soldiers do not escape back to report the news, they should still come and take a look."
Su Su nodded: "From the arrangement of the mechanism in Zigui City, the other party never thought that we were directly teleported to the river with the boat and the people, so we should still come up."
It makes sense. But Wang Qiang suddenly sympathized with the tens of thousands of defeated soldiers. That was a mountain road with a straight line distance of dozens of kilometers on the map. If he had been walking by himself, he would definitely die, right?
Wait! Wang Qiang suddenly discovered a question: "This Zigui is south of the Yangtze River, this Yichang is north of the Yangtze River. Logically, isn't this Jiangnan the territory of the Song Dynasty? Just watching these defeated soldiers be extradited back to Jiangbei?"
Gan Ning smiled clearly: "The Song Dynasty at this time should be equivalent to the territory of my lord Gongsun Quan during the Three Kingdoms. The other side of Yichang should be within the scope of the scouts' surveillance. If these tens of thousands of tired defeated soldiers fled back to Jiangbei, then the Song Dynasty would really be unable to help A Dou!"
I'll go, and I'm blackening A Dou again!
Yang Guang smiled proudly: "If the Song Dynasty is really so incompetent, it would be better for me to kill that emperor and continue to live a delight in the emperor! At that time, I will confer General Gan as the king of... One word to shoulder! Su Aiqing as the empress—"
Ah! Wang Qiang spit out his saliva: "You are dreaming!"
Su Su smiled and said, "No, I really haven't been a queen!"
Yang Guang laughed: "Su Aiqing, just--"
Wang Qiang said angrily: "Su Su, why don't you learn from Wu Zetian to be the emperor? You will say whoever blooms will bloom, and I will kill all the flowers!"
Su Su smiled and said, "Okay, if I become the emperor, I will definitely recruit Brother Qiang into the harem as a little prince to serve Ai's family every night!"
Everyone laughed. Wang Qiang was even more amused. What the hell is this little prince?
At this moment, Hu Ximei reported: "The grain ship has been dispatched, and the five ships are not filled, and hundreds of brigades of boatmen who are pulling the ship are on the road!"
Gan Ning was overjoyed: "Okay! This is a normal person who plays according to the routine, I appreciate it!"
"Traveler? The one who pulled the boat?" Wang Qiang was really confused. In Wang Qiang's impression, there was only the joyful song "Love of a Tractor".
Su Su suddenly sighed: "Yes, even after the founding of New China, this boatman has always been there. This is the oldest profession in the Three Gorges region of the Yangtze River, which has lasted for thousands of years. However, the low status of the boatman is not attracting attention. So many famous poets and poets who entered Sichuan have hardly written poems about boatmans. Only Du Fu's poem "The Best Performing" mentioned one sentence - the husband in the gorge is absolutely seldom killed, and he is rarely in the public office and most in the water. The rich have money to ride a big boat, and the poor take it to the walker. A poet like Lu You, who is patriotic and loving to the people, only uses four words to "sweep the boat across the beach" in his famous book "The Record of Entering Sichuan".
"...As for the rest, it is all about the pleasure of going down the river. I won't talk about the sentence "A thousand miles of Jiangling will return in one day". Du Fu's other song "Singing during the day, you must drink wine, and you can return home as your companion for youth. That is, you can pass through Wu Gorge from Baxia and go down to Xiangyang to Luoyang. It is even more brisk and brisk, and it is not inferior to Li Bai. After all, everyone only likes to be happy when going along the river, not the hardships of going against the current."
Gan Ning coughed dryly: "Indeed, I just don't like to go against the current."
Yang Guang sighed: "Don't we have a great literary master here? Let's talk about our opinions?"
Liu Zongyuan's voice immediately came from the painting: "I haven't entered Sichuan again! If I have any, I will write it! My "Eight Records of Yongzhou" describes the hardships and misery of the working people."
Yang Guangle: "You write now!"
Liu Zongyuan said in a muffled voice: "I am Liu Zongyuan's soul who only wants to be promoted. The Liu Zongyuan who writes articles and poems is not on me!"
Yang Guang laughed: "It's actually hard to deal with it!"
Liu Zongyuan said unhappily: "Can Your Majesty Yang go into battle and kill the enemy? Don't you fight ten, it's okay to fight a small soldier?"
Yang Guang said angrily: "I am also a remnant soul, the one I can beat is not on me!"
Damn, Yang Guang is really only left with momentum! No wonder he is lustful but not lustful. I guess he can't do it anymore~ I'm still thinking about opening a harem like this?
Wang Qiangle said: "The war is about to start, can you not fight for these things?"
Gan Ning smiled faintly: "It's okay, it's best to have fun before the war. Water war is a technical job. The easier the mentality, the more skilled the more it is, and the less likely it is to make mistakes."
Su Su then realized: "No wonder I always smile when I see General Gan!"
Gan Ning smiled and said, "Yes, why is my sail the brocade fan? My clothes are brocade robes? It's just a joy! I feel relaxed at a glance."
I'll take a break, my brother always thinks it's a slut.
Gan Ning said again: "Anyway, I never kill the boatman, so everyone can rest assured."
Speaking of this, Gan Ning took a deep breath: "It's time to start! Wang Qiang and Empress Su went into the cabin to avoid it, brothers started!"
He shouted in unison in the paddle cabin: "Start!"
As the Jinsails rose and the oars moved together, the Jinsails rushed down again.
Wang Qiang was so entangled that he entered the cabin again, just like last time he was in the basement of the windmill, he just lie down like this and can't see anything.
