Chapter 741: Shen An Deceives People
"Zhicheng, is Shen An a famous general?"
Everyone asked a very inappropriate question and regretted it after asking it.
Zhong E looked at Shen An, who was slowly riding up, and said: "He has not been defeated in the north or south. He uses his troops cunningly but without sacrificing courage. Moreover, he also made a divine crossbow. Such a person... If he doesn't do it in the future, If something goes wrong, the name of a famous general will be left in the history books."
Famous general!
Those who don't want to be famous generals are not good generals, and this is the case with Zhonge.
But compared with Shen An, he lagged behind.
Shen An is much younger than him, but he has already fought in many battles. Back then, the late emperor once said that Shen An was the embryo of a famous general. After the current official's victory in the northwest, he even praised Shen An as a famous general in the world.
But what about XX?
Zhong E thought of Qingjian City, where they were facing off against the Xixia people, but Li Liangzuo wouldn't come, leaving him helpless.
If you want to be a famous general, you must start a war. However, the current situation in the Song Dynasty does not see signs of a war, which makes Zhong E very disappointed.
There was a gloom in his eyes, and then he glanced at Dutou who had just asked the question. His head was cold all over, and he almost fell off his horse when he thought of Zhong'e's method of dealing with soldiers who offended him.
"Where are Zhong Zhicheng going?"
Shen An reined in his horse ten steps away. This distance was enough to ensure that Yan Baoyu and Wen Xiaozhong could kill Zhong E.
The army of the Song Dynasty cannot move at will. Qingjian City is more than a hundred miles away. What is Zhong'e doing here?
Do you want to intercept and kill me?
Shen An murmured in his heart, if this was the case, he would definitely let Zhong E's bones be buried under that black oil today.
Zhong E said: "A batch of baggage was detained in Yanzhou. I came to take a look. I heard a group of cavalry coming here on the way. I was worried that they were Xixia people..."
Shen An nodded, dismounted to show that it was harmless, and then walked to the outside.
"I want to talk to Taizhao."
Shen An dismounted and the two of them walked around the perimeter. The surrounding Mangshan army slowly squeezed in and surrounded Zhong E's men.
Shen An will not take risks before getting safety guarantee.
"You can just ask Wu Dan about this!"
Zhong E explained his purpose of coming in one sentence, and then glanced at Shen An, "What's the purpose of waiting for the imperial edict to come here?"
"Looking for black oil."
Sooner or later, this matter will be made public, and the surrounding generals will be notified and asked to protect the canyon, so it doesn't matter what Shen An said.
"Black oil?" Zhong'e stood with his hands behind his hands, "I know you never do anything in vain. Since you have traveled thousands of miles from the capital to come here, this black oil must be of great use, right?"
Shen An nodded, feeling that this guy actually had a high IQ, but he was just a bit arrogant, thinking that the old Zhong family was good at both civil and military affairs and looked down on other generals.
"You'll know later."
Shen An likes to tease his enemies the most, and this method of appetizing is the most effective.
Sure enough, Zhong E asked impatiently: "What is it for?"
Curiosity is the source of human progress, but Shen An uses it to trick people.
"Wu Dan knows about this."
Zhong E asked: "Since it is important, then Wu Dan must also be here?"
Shen An nodded and asked, "Where is he?"
Shen An is an ally of the Zhe family, so naturally he doesn't want to be on good terms with him, so Zhong E thinks this is a gesture.
"Right in the back."
Zhong E turned around and shouted: "Let's go find Wu Dan!"
Shen An waved his hand, as if he was sending a friend off to the battlefield with tears in his eyes, "Go slowly! Come back often when you have time."
Wen Xiaozhong asked: "Mr. Lang, why are you so kind to him?"
"kind?"
Shen An smiled and said: "If you want people to jump into the trap willingly, how can you not be friendly?"
…
Zhong E ran all the way and found Wu Dan in the village.
"black oil?"
Wu Dan shook his head and said, "It's hard to talk about this matter."
He swore that he had good intentions, so he became annoyed after being stared at coldly by Zhong E, so he said: "This thing is not easy to extinguish after it is lit. The government plans to use it in the army... It is here now."
"do not talk!"
Zhong E waved his hands, turned around with an ugly expression and cursed: "Shen An, this beast, are you as deceptive as you?"
The people around him were puzzled. After the scolding had gotten enough, someone asked: "Zhicheng... who did Shen An cheat?"
"He tricked you!"
Zhong E wanted to vomit blood, "This village is being relocated. It seems that we want to keep Heiyou a secret... Now that you also know about this, what should you do?"
Everyone looked at each other, and a chill gradually rose.
"I am very loyal!"
"That's right, Zhicheng, we are loyal to the Song Dynasty!"
"Shut up!" Zhong'e stopped his subordinates and said, "This matter... just wait in Qingjian City after you return."
what does this mean?
Is this a life-long house arrest?
Some people feel that they have encountered an unreasonable disaster, "How long will it take to know the city?"
"Whenever black oil is used in the military, you will be free."
Zhong E turned around and looked at Wu Dan and said, "Wu Zhizhou is very capable."
Wu Dan said in shock: "I don't want to say it, but I know that the city is aggressive, but..."
You are a warrior and I am a civil servant. If you have the ability, come and try arm wrestling.
Zhong E said solemnly: "Wu Zhizhou likes to take care of himself."
Wu Dan raised his eyebrows and said, "You are very good!"
He didn't dare to offend Shen An, but it was a waste of time.
"let's go!"
As soon as Zhong E and his men mounted their horses, someone said, "Zhicheng, didn't we come to Yanzhou to ask about the baggage? Wuzhizhou is here."
Zhong E almost spat out a mouthful of old blood.
He was so deceived by Shen An that he actually forgot about it.
…
"Going to sea!"
Amid cheers, dozens of warships rushed out of the estuary.
The sergeant on the bow turned around and shouted: "Military Commander, we are very lucky. There is a favorable wind in this early winter."
Qin Zhen looked at the vast ocean in front of him and couldn't help but feel relieved, "As fast as you can, I can't wait to see those smugglers."
With the flags flying, the fleet reorganized and then headed east.
The sea breeze was strong and there were waves, and Chang Jianren felt that all his hard work had been in vain.
"Military Lord, are there still merchants smuggling this season?"
"Yes." Qin Zhen turned around and saw that his face was pale, but he held it back and nodded slightly, "Dengzhou Navy will be repairing this season, so it is a good opportunity for smuggling."
"Liao people? Or Gaoli."
Chang Jianren is still a rookie in the Navy, but his curiosity is very strong.
"They are all there." Qin Zhen said: "There are also Japanese people. The Song Dynasty was rich and had a large population. Any rare items would be valuable as long as they were sent over. But the Shibo Division has to draw one out of ten, one out of ten! Those Businessmen feel that they are cutting their own flesh."
Chang Jianren felt like there was a whirlpool in his stomach, and everything was turning upside down. "Xiaguan thought of something. The last time he was ordered to clean up smuggling in the Xiongzhou Forgery Market, almost all the officials and sergeants were involved. It can be seen that Human nature is greedy and cannot be controlled!"
"This depends on the capabilities of our navy."
Qin Zhen said confidently: "As long as our navy has many warships, if we catch one, we will build one. In ten years, we will ensure that no one dares to smuggle them."
The Song Dynasty was at a strategic disadvantage on land, but Qin Zhen was confident on the sea.
"The king and Taizhao attach great importance to the navy. That oil bomb...fuck you!"
When Qin Zhen mentioned the oil bomb, he saw several sergeants opening an oil bomb and getting oil out of it...
He rushed over and kicked him, then shouted: "Lock him for two days!"
Several sergeants begged for mercy with bitter expressions on their faces, but Qin Zhen just refused to listen.
Chang Jianren felt that his punishment was a little light, "Military leader, you should be held responsible, right?"
This is still light. If he encounters a harsh general, he will beat the offending sergeant half to death and then throw him outside to let everyone listen to the miserable screams.
"You still have to learn a lot." Qin Zhen felt that Chang Jianren was easy to learn, but it was not that easy to transform from a civil servant to a military general.
"This is the sea, lonely and helpless. There is only one boat of people here. It is boring every day. Such days will drive people crazy." Qin Zhen said softly: "Remember, unless you make a big mistake at sea, you can easily It’s lighter.”
Chang Jianren's heart trembled and he asked, "Are you worried about the backlash?"
Qin Zhen nodded appreciatively, "Yes. People will go crazy after being alone at sea for a long time, which is controlled by military discipline. But you can't rely solely on this. You have to learn to enlighten them. For example, they were old soldiers who knew how to go to sea. Food will become stale over time, and things like oil are even more rare, so I wanted to get some and hide them... It’s not a big deal.”
Chang Jianren felt that he had learned another skill. As soon as he opened his mouth to speak, he covered his mouth and ran back.
"Ha ha ha ha!"
Qin Zhen smiled and said: "This is something everyone has to experience. I almost vomited my intestines back then. I'll let you rest these days."
Chang Jianren had never known how severe vomiting was, so he thought Qin Zhen's words were exaggerated.
"vomit!"
He squatted in his cabin, holding a wooden basin and vomiting wildly.
Various food residues were vomited out, and dark brown vomit filled the basin.
After all he vomited out was water, he finally gained some insights.
He found that as long as he didn't move around, the reaction in his stomach would be friendly.
My stomach was empty, but the desire to vomit was still there.
He sat down and panted slowly.
The cabin door was pushed open, and Qin Zhen came in carrying a water bag, without any reaction to the sour smell in the cabin.
"Drink some water." He handed over the water bag.
Chang Jianren shook his head weakly, "I don't want to drink."
"You have to drink even if you don't want to, otherwise you will die of vomiting." Qin Zhen threw the water bag on the wooden board and said, "Take good care of yourself. I believe that you will meet a smuggling businessman in three to five days at most."
"real?"
Chang Jianren became energetic, picked up the water bag and drank.
"Your throat will hurt after vomiting too much, so you should talk less in the past few days."
Qin Zhen thought Chang Jianren would be wilted for several days, but when he got up and came out the next morning, he saw Chang Jianren asking about sails under the mast.
"Why don't you rest?"
He felt that this guy was trying to hold on, so he yawned and got ready to have breakfast.
Chang Jianren said: "It's time to go down to the official position."
"Okay?" Qin Zhen couldn't bear to expose him, "Okay, that's good."
When it was time to have breakfast, Chang Jianren ate voraciously, and in a short while he finished the bowl of soup cakes without even the soup left. Qin Zhen couldn't help but said in surprise: "Eat less, otherwise you will vomit again."
He thought Chang Jianren would still vomit, UU reading www.uukanshu.net But by noon, Chang Jianren was still jumping around and even went to the back to learn how to steer.
This is really...talent!
Qin Zhen felt that his deputy was good, so he taught him more things.
"Some people used to say that the navy was what saved the lives of the Song Dynasty. That was before the Chanyuan Alliance..."
"Save your life?"
"Yes." Qin Zhen said: "Before the Chanyuan Alliance, the navy was always ready to support the monarchs and ministers in the DPRK going south. It was not until after the Chanyuan Alliance was signed that the Liao people still kept their promise. The navy then Nobody cares."
"Ship found!"
The sharp sound of the lookout whistle came.

Thanks to the leader of the book friend "Fu Er Senior Brother" for the reward.
The third update is here, good night!
