The World of Yellow Sky

only……

Everyone is paying attention to Pingchang City and the counties, and the troops from all over Xuzhou are rushing towards these two cities quickly.

Their attention was diverted to the two cities in the north, and they were attracted by the main force of the Ming army and Xu An's big flag.

No one paid attention to the vast sea east of Xuzhou.

……

There is a large continent in the Northeast Sea, which is called Yuzhou.

Although Yuzhou Mountain is called a mountain, it is actually a large island close to the land. There are many residents on the island who live on fishing and hunting. They spend most of their lives in the sea and mountains. Although they are separated from the inland Not far, but almost no intersection with the inland

Qu County in the west of Yuzhou Mountain used to be the water village of the Xuzhou Navy for a short time, so it was prosperous for a while, but after that, with the departure of the Xuzhou Navy, it no longer had a grand occasion, and the water village here also fell into disuse. .

On the surface of the sea, the small fishing boat seemed quite dangerous among the waves, but in fact it was very stable and did not appear to be overturned at all.

They have lived by fishing for a long time, and they have long been accustomed to the bumps of the waves.

Li Zhong looked at the empty fishing net, and lay down on the fishing boat, looking up at the sky above his head.

The sky was dark and there was no strong sun.

He is not very old. In fact, he is not yet an adult this year but only 17 years old. If it is normal, he is only this age now, and his elders will take him to go fishing. After all, he does not have so much experience.

But when the Xuzhou Navy was established, fishermen were widely recruited into the army. Of the many adult men in Yuzhou Mountain, only a few were not recruited, and the rest were forcibly recruited into the army. This kind of thing could not allow them to resist.

There was no harvest all day, which made Li Zhong extremely annoyed and miserable. Without harvest, there was no food. There were only a few acres of Susukida in the family. Although there was rented land, the tax was heavy. The heavy work fell on him and his mother. The younger brother is only ten years old, so he can only help a little in the field.

The harvest in the field is not good, and the only way to fill the gap is to rely on fishing.

It's just that this fishing and hunting is not easy, and I have been busy all day without any gains.

Li Zhong closed his eyes, the hunger in his belly made him feel weak and unable to move, he just wanted to rest.

Driven by the waves, the fishing boat shook gently, and Li Zhong fell asleep on the fishing boat by himself.

……

This time, Li Zhong felt extremely heavy, and couldn't even open his eyes.

Until he felt his head lifted, and then a stream of sweet water slowly flowed down his throat and into his stomach.

Consciousness returned to his mind.

"This is where……"

Li Zhong raised his head and looked at the dark sky. He didn't understand why the sky turned yellow.

Could it be that he has already entered the afterlife, which also has heaven and earth?

"Xuzhou."

His question was answered.

It was only then that Li Zhong noticed that beside him, two soldiers in armored stomachs and yellow scarves were sitting on the boat.

"Xuzhou?"

Memories flooded in like a tide, Li Zhong remembered that he seemed to have fallen asleep on the boat, maybe he had drifted to other sea areas.

"Then why..."

Li Zhongzheng wanted to ask why the day was yellow, but he didn't ask this question after all.

Because he discovered that the color of the sky has not changed, and it is not the sky that covers him...

But the sails of warships!

Li Zhong looked around. At this moment, he finally discovered his situation and saw his surroundings clearly.

Just above the surrounding sea, ocher yellow flags almost block out the sky and the sun.

Thousands of sails compete for the race, and hundreds of boats compete for the flow.

Hundreds of giant ships blocked all his vision, and it was hard not to see the head and tail.

Chapter 874 I'm Not Here

Xuzhou, Donghai County, and Qu County.

On the east side of Qu County, the water village that had been idle for a long time became busy and lively again.

Only this time, the flag flying in the camp was no longer the fiery red flag of the Han army, but a bright ocher yellow.

Lu Bu pressed the Yanling knife in his hand, and stepped off the warship in fast and fast steps.

Cheng Lian and Wei Yue followed closely behind with a group of guards wearing cotton armor and iron stomachs.

Lu Bu raised his eyes slightly. When he stepped off the warship, he had already seen a man in red brocade clothes and an iron crown waiting for him on the pier.

Lu Bu's eyes were slightly focused, his eyesight was very good, although he was far away, he could still see clearly the shape of the brocade robe, and the painting on it was an eagle soaring high.

"Eagle Wolf Guard?"

Lu Bu frowned slightly. It was less than half an hour after they occupied the water village, the Eagle Wolf Guards had already found the pier, and they were still in the enemy's territory, wearing the uniforms of the Eagle Wolf Guards majestically. This is really unbelievable .

"Deng Ling, the Thousand Household Officer of the Eagle Guard stationed in Donghai County, Xuzhou, sees the champion."

As soon as he got closer, the man in the red eagle uniform saluted first.

Lu Bu raised his hand and returned the same salute. The identity of this person has already been checked. He is indeed the Thousand Household Officer of the Eagle Wolf Guard stationed in Donghai County. Whether it is the portrait, the logo, the waist card, or the seal, it has been confirmed.

The Eagle Guard has its own set of exclusive passwords and passwords, and the Eagle Guard accompanying the army has repeatedly confirmed that there is not the slightest problem.

Deng Ling naturally noticed Lu Bu's puzzled expression.

"My hidden identity in Xuzhou has been exposed, so I went underground, took control of the situation, and stayed in Qu County. This dress was changed while waiting for the general. It was not necessary, but this dress has been worn for a long time. I haven’t put it on anymore, and I really want to put it back on.”

Deng Ling smiled and explained.

"This time the champion is here, I think, in the future, he should be able to wear it for a long time. He doesn't need to pretend to be someone else, but can be himself."

Lu Bu's expression softened slightly. The job of the Eagle Wolf Guard was to dance on the sword.

As the chief general of the first army and a high-ranking official in the court, he also has a certain understanding of the Eagle Wolf Guard, and he did not despise the Eagle Wolf Guard at all.

Going deep into the enemy's territory, looking for news, and passing it back, there may be the danger of falling into a desperate situation at any time, and we must not relax for a moment.

Most of the time, during battles, he would formulate strategies and decide how to attack because of the maps drawn by the Eagle Wolf Guards, as well as the extremely detailed reports and the enemy's defense maps.

In the battle of Rao Leshui, at the critical moment, it was the intelligence of the Eagle Wolf Guard that allowed him to find the fighter, and it was also because the information obtained by the Eagle Wolf Guard in exchange for his life captured the women and children of Xianbei in the central part, allowing him to sacrifice to the sky in Beishan and drink horses in the vast sea , and even accomplished things that have never been accomplished before.

After the war, everyone boasted about his achievements.

But those eagle wolf guards who made outstanding contributions in the battle, but no one saw their achievements.

"Deng Qianhu came here so quickly, what important matter do you want to talk to me about?"

Lu Bu didn't beat around the bush, but asked straightforwardly.

"It's an important thing, and it's extremely important."

When talking about business, Deng Ling restrained his smile and regained his seriousness.

"Champion Hou should also be puzzled, why I came so fast, logically speaking, it is not easy to pass the news in the enemy's territory."

"If it's other places, it's really slow for me to pass on the information, but it's really not the case in Qu County."

In the whole world, Qu County is not well-known.

But in Donghai County, in Xuzhou Prefecture, no one knows Qu County, no one knows.

The reason why Qu County is famous is not because it used to be the military port of the Xuzhou Navy.

It is because, as the richest businessman in Xuzhou, the Mi family has been a legalist since then.

The Mi family in Qu County, the ancestral breeders, had thousands of children and customers, and the wealth was huge.

It is not an exaggeration to always say that the rich can rival the country.

Qu County is said to be the city of the Han Dynasty, rather it is the city of the Mi family.

Up to the county magistrate, down to the officials and soldiers, they are all under the control of the Mi family, and there is no dissatisfaction.

In other places, the influence of the Mi family may be greatly reduced because of their status as merchants, but in Qu County, the Mi family can really be said to be a single-handed overlord.

The rules of the Mi Clan are the rules of Qu County, and anyone who dares to violate them will be severely punished.

However, the Mi family controlled Qu County and its surroundings not by relying on the thousands of followers under the sect, nor by coercion by force such as the clan's private soldiers.

Instead, relying on the bondage of interests, step by step, people in the entire Qu County were pulled into Mi's car.

Because of interests, all the officials in Qu County, down to the common people, are actually the eyes and ears of the Mi family, and it is precisely because of this that the Yinglangwei got on the line of the Mi family.

No matter how fierce the battle in Xuzhou was before, no matter how turbulent the world was.

Qu County has always maintained a certain degree of stability, all because of the influence of the Mi family, because of the influence of money.

"Just a few days ago, our Wei successfully instigated the rebellion against the Mi Clan in Qu County. The patriarchs Mi Zhu, Mi Fang, and the elders of the clan have agreed and are willing to fully cooperate with our Wei."

"So my deployment in Qu County has also changed from underground to public. Just the day before yesterday, I sent a fast boat across the sea to Qingzhou, but unexpectedly, the general landed in Qu County suddenly, and..."

Deng Ling glanced at the docked warship in the water fortress, and swallowed a mouthful of saliva. He had also seen the grand occasion of the Han army navy before, and he thought that the scale was the limit.

But now seeing the extremely large fleet of our own side, I realize that those are nothing but trivial, not worth mentioning.

"The Mi family in Qu County?"

Gan Ning came from another direction, just as he heard the exchange between Deng Ling and Lu Bu, he hurried forward.

"Exactly."

Deng Ling nodded.

Lu Bu and Gan Ning looked at each other, both of them could see the astonishment in each other's eyes.

Although the Mi family in Qu County is not the so-called high-ranking family, in terms of financial resources, the ten families added together may not be as rich as the Mi family.

No one can say clearly how rich the Mi family is.

However, the Mi family kept a low profile. It was only after the Eagle Wolf Guards got all the information that they realized that the Mi family was rich, even far surpassing the mother Ji Zhen's.

And such a person was actually instigated by the eagle wolf guards.

Although the words came from Deng Ling's mouth, Lu Bu and Gan Ning still couldn't believe it.

Finally, after hearing Deng Ling's explanation, and Mi's pursuit of official and business certificates after the war, it was indeed discovered that Yinglang Weiqu County had indeed turned into the light, otherwise Deng Ling could not have come so quickly.

Lu Bu and Gan Ning began to believe this news.

"Champion Hou, don't worry, Qu County is under martial law at this time, and all news transmission has been blocked. As long as Champion Hou is not found on the sea road, then Xuzhou must not be vigilant."

"How to march, these are the things that the champion marquis considers, so I won't bother you too much. If necessary, the champion marquis can give orders. I, the Eagle Wolf Guard, have scouts in every city."

Lu Bu's eyes moved slightly, and his heart skipped a beat.

"If I remember correctly, Mi Zhu, the Patriarch of the Mi Clan, is currently in charge of the administration of Xuzhou, so he should be in Tan County, the prefecture of Xuzhou, right?"

Deng Ling was slightly taken aback. He didn't know why Lu Bu asked suddenly, but he still answered Lu Bu's question.

"Champion Hou's speculation is correct. Mi Zhu is currently working in the administration of Xuzhou, and is indeed in the administration of Tan County in Xuzhou."

"His younger brother, Mi Ren, is currently in Qu County, preparing to deliver rations to the Han army in various counties and Pingchang."

"Speaking of which, the Han Dynasty is also unpopular. Lu Kang, the state shepherd, asked the Mi family to donate a large amount of grain and rice again, which made the Mi family completely fall to our side."

"and many more……"

Lu Bu grasped the key points in Deng Ling's words.

"You mean, Mi Ren is now preparing and sending military rations to the Xuzhou army going north, and his Mi family is responsible for these military rations?"

Deng Ling nodded, "Exactly."

"Do you have general information about the current movements of the Xuzhou army?"

"I don't have one for the time being." Deng Ling looked serious, "But if the champion wants it, he can get it right away."

"Now the supply of food and grass for the Xuzhou army is all in the charge of the Mi family. Mi Ren should have the specific number of troops and their distribution in cities and regions."

Deng Ling saw Lu Bu's solemn face, and he knew in his heart that perhaps he succeeded in instigating against the Mi family this time, and the benefits he brought were far greater than he expected.

"Champion Hou, wait a moment, I'll send someone to fetch it right away."

Deng Ling was born in the old Taiping Road, and he was one of the earliest Huang Angels who followed Xu An. He was able to do things well, and immediately arranged for people to go to Mi's mansion to take pictures.
