The big ship slowly docked, and the soldiers stopped at a bank with a slow current. Then several soldiers jumped from the ship, swam ashore, caught the rope thrown from the ship, and pulled the rope to the shore.
Make the boat close to the case. Then tie the rope to the tree on the shore.
There is still some distance between the ship and the land on the shore, but the soldiers have already prepared to take long wooden boards from the ship and put them on the rope. The iron nails on the wooden boards tightly fasten the ropes, and dozens of wooden boards are formed.
A sloping wooden bridge.
The movement on the boat alarmed Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao who were on the bow. The two women turned their heads and asked, "What's going on if the general doesn't go and look?"
Liu Qi shook his head and said, "No, I already know what happened?"
Da Qiao couldn't help but ask: "What happened? Why did the boat stop?"
Liu Qi did not answer but pointed behind the two women and said, "Do you two girls know what is behind you?"
Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao turned around and said, "Isn't that Jingzhou?"
Liu Qi put down his arm and said, "That's where we are going."
Da Qiao looked at Liu Qi in surprise and said, "The general may have made a mistake. We are going to Wu County, not Jingzhou."
Liu Qi shook his head and said: "I am not mistaken. I would like to welcome you two to Jingzhou." After speaking, he looked at the two women with a smile.
Hearing Liu Qi's words, Daqiao was stunned and then looked at Liu Qi in disbelief. Even Xiao Qiao, who had been silent, raised his head and looked at Liu Qi with astonishment in his eyes. Da Qiao forced himself to calm down and said, "General, are you kidding me?"
Liu Qi shook his head again and said nothing, and the two women's faces turned pale with fright. Da Qiao took Xiao Qiao and took a few steps back, looked at Liu Qi and said in panic: "We had no grudges in the past, and now we have no grudges. Why are you robbing us?"
My two sisters?”
Liu Qi walked forward two steps: "I have no choice but to force you. If Sun Ce hadn't pushed too hard, I wouldn't have thought of using your help to return to Jingzhou."
Seeing Liu Qi coming forward, the two women stepped back and stopped when they had no way to retreat. Da Qiao patted the frightened Xiao Qiao and looked at Liu Qi and said, "Now that the eldest son has returned to Jingzhou, should we be released?"
Leave?"
Liu Qi shook his head and ignored Da Qiao, who looked desperate and said: "Let the two girls go back now? Do the two girls still want to go back and marry that Sun Ce and Zhou Yu? Do you think that Sun Ce and Zhou Yu will still marry you?"
Da Qiao reluctantly said: "Why don't you marry my sister?"
Liu Qi laughed and said: "The two girls are beautiful and beautiful. But I am young and energetic, and I rob the two girls. If I haven't done anything, who will believe it? By then, the two girls will be robbed."
What should a girl do?”
Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao were stunned for a moment and then turned pale. Jingzhou and Jiangdong are enemies of life and death. How could Liu Qi take Sun Ce's wife back unscathed? Even if they were put back, how many people would believe that they were still innocent? Then they would
What else can you do but commit suicide to prove your innocence?
Liu Qi looked at the two women with pale faces and sighed: "It's because of me that the two girls are not allowed to live in the world. I will feel sorry for them. If the two girls don't accompany me back to Jingzhou next time, they can't avoid those rumors, but
We can still ensure that the two girls will not be bullied in Jingzhou."
Da Qiao glanced at Xiao Qiao, who was struggling in his arms. Liu Qi was waiting for his decision. After a full quarter of silence, Da Qiao raised his head and looked at Liu Qi and said: "How can I believe that you will not do anything after seeing my sister brought to Jingzhou?"
Insulting my sister?"
Liu Qi was stunned for a moment and didn't expect Da Qiao to ask such a direct question, and then laughed and said: "Although I, Liu Qi, am not a gentleman, I still won't do things that are harmful to nature. Besides, if I were really that kind of person, I would still be here with you now.
Talk?"
Da Qiao's face turned pale. If Liu Qi was really that kind of person, he wouldn't have bothered to talk to them so much. Da Qiao nodded and said, "I hope the young master can keep his word. If the young master breaks his words, my sisters will not die."
I will make your wish come true." After saying that, he pulled Xiao Qiao away.
Liu Qi sighed, knowing that Da Qiao's last words were true. If Liu Qi really wanted to insult Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao in the future, they would really commit suicide. But Liu Qi was not worried. Although Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao looked stunning, they did not reach the level of
Let Liu Qi do anything for them, and besides, he really can't do such a thing.
Eight hundred people walked along the wooden plank bridge to the shore. Liu Qi said to Gan Ning: "Just in case, find a few people to sail the boat back and pass by Pengze Ferry." If the Pengze County Lieutenant had been cautious, he might have said so.
Waiting at the ferry.
Gan Ning nodded. Although they were in Jingzhou at this time, they were not far from Chaisang. Once their identities were exposed, they would still be in danger. However, thinking of Liu Qi on the ship, Gan Ning asked: "Sir, what should I do with the gifts on the ship?"
"
Liu Qi waved his hand and said: "Don't worry about it. Find some rocks and put them on the boat so that no one can see the flaws. Just burn them after passing Pengze County."
Gan Ning nodded and went to make arrangements. Liu Qi looked at Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao who were not far away. He hesitated and walked over. Looking at the two women who looked a little haggard, Liu Qi secretly sighed that this blow was a bit big for the two women.
Liu Qi said: "I wonder if you two can ride a horse?"
Da Qiao was a little wary of Liu Qi, but he nodded after hearing Liu Qi's words. The two sisters also often went out to play on horseback, otherwise they would not have met Sun Ce.
At this time, Wang Yi ran over with a few people and said with a happy face: "There is a small road not far away from the young master leading to the west. It should be going to the interior of Jingzhou."
Liu Qi looked at Wang Yi who was covered in weeds and asked: "How wide is the road that can accommodate a carriage?" After all, the appearance of Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao was so amazing that Liu Qi thought it would be easier to take a carriage.
Wang Yi thought for a while and said: "It should be able to accommodate a carriage."
Liu Qi turned his head and looked at the three large ships that had left the shore. He saw that the draft of the ship was no shallower than when they were on the ship. It seemed that Gan Ning had hired someone to move the huge rocks and place them on them.
At this moment Gan Ning ran over sweating profusely and said: "My lord, everything is ready."
Liu Qi nodded and pointed to Da Qiao and the others: "You pick a few docile horses from among those horses and let them use them."
Gan Ning immediately turned around and in just a moment he led a few people to bring in more than a dozen horses. Liu Qi saw that these horses were indeed docile horses. Even among the trees full of weeds, they followed them quietly.
Behind Gan Ning and others, Liu Qi came to Da Qiao and said: "This place is still some distance from the path. The grass and thorns in the middle are quite inconvenient. You'd better get on your horse first and get on the road before taking the carriage."
Da Qiao nodded and took Xiao Qiao to choose two horses, and then the other maids also chose a horse each. They all grew up with Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao, and naturally they knew how to ride horses.
Seeing that everything was settled, Liu Qi no longer hesitated, and immediately led the cavalry to follow Wang Yi's path. The Flying Tiger Guards in full armor opened the way in front, while more than ten women walked in the middle. Behind them were the Jinfan thieves and the rest.
The horses. The carriage had been torn into pieces and placed on the horses' backs.
……………………
Cheng Pu, who was dressed in military uniform, finally arrived at Poyang County. On this journey from Wu County to Poyang County, it was a winding journey of nearly a thousand miles. They only walked for three days. For three days without sleep, nearly a hundred horses were exhausted.
, you must know that these horses are the best horses in Jiangdong. Even ordinary county guards cannot have more than two. At most, Sun Ce will give one as a reward. It is conceivable that nearly a hundred such horses can be exhausted.
The hardships of their trip.
At this time, even Cheng Pu, who was dressed in military uniform, looked tired. The armor on his body was even a little messy, and his helmet had been thrown away by him for a long time. There were only two thousand cavalry behind him, and these two thousand cavalry division Sun Ce's personal guards
Army, the other five thousand cavalry have been left far behind them.
The setting sun reflected the tired bodies of two thousand cavalry. Cheng Pu turned his head and glanced at the personal guards behind him. A trace of awe flashed in his eyes, and then turned into appreciation. Awe was for Sun Ce. With such an elite cavalry, Sun Ce
It was worthy of his awe. And such an elite cavalry was also worthy of his admiration. After galloping for nearly a thousand miles along the way, these cavalrymen did not have any complaints or dissatisfaction at all, and carried out his orders without hesitation. Even he admired these.
The perseverance of the cavalry. These cavalry may not be as good as him in martial arts, but they are no worse than him. Even if he can't hold on, these cavalry can persevere.
"I wonder what kind of training can train such an elite cavalry?" This question just flashed through Cheng Pu's mind. Cheng Pu turned his head and said: "Work harder, we will arrive at Poyang City soon."
The cavalry behind him was shocked when he heard this, and he gathered his energy and followed Cheng Pu towards Poyang City.
Half an hour later, Cheng Pu finally arrived at the foot of Poyang City with two thousand guards. The guard on the city was none other than Du Bo from the racecourse. When he saw the two thousand cavalry, he looked wary and shouted: "Who are you? Don't come near.
Otherwise I will release arrows." After saying that, he waved his hand to the city, and hundreds of archers were ready to shoot at the city.
Cheng Pu looked at Du Bo in the city and cursed: "I am General Cheng Pu. Why don't you guys in the city open the door quickly?"
