[Red Mansion] I want to be the chief assistant
Chapter 100
A few days later, it was the first day of junior high school. Zhuo Ming stood in the crowd not far away, still unable to believe that he had passed the strict review and was selected as one of the crowd watching this unprecedented memorial ceremony. member.
As lucky as he is, there are octogenarians with a cane, gentry who have also undergone rigorous screening, sergeants from the general's mansion who stand upright, and students from Jinling Xishan Academy.The officiant was Xin Zongping's grandfather, the dean of Xishan College, the master of General Lin, and the future imperial teacher Xin Hui. He read aloud:
"...The country's foreign aggression has never been heard of in ancient times. It was built at the end of Zhao and Song Dynasties, and it was born in Mongolia. Lai here. Unfortunately, Ji Shichu was disturbed, and the national strength was exhausted. Man Jing took the opportunity to enter the Central Xia Dynasty. The people of our country, all the fathers and brothers, have been busy..."
Mr. Xin's voice was old and heavy, and every time he said a sentence, a dozen or so big men stood up and answered the sentence, and spread this sacrificial oration far away.This sacrificial article was written by Lin Yu himself. No matter how much the people in the north deny it, he is still an undisputed talent of six yuan. Whether Lin Yu himself recognizes it is another matter. The article he concocted is indeed fascinating. All followed with enthusiasm.
However, Lin Yu thought about it for a while, and added the part about Sun Guofu in his original world as a commemoration.
After burning the sacrificial table, the following is the highlight.
For a moment, the wind stopped, and the whole mausoleum was quiet and permeating for a moment.Zhuo Ming's excellent eyes made him instantly see the helpless Manchu who was being escorted and knelt on the stone slab, trembling a few times. They already knew that this was their end.
It is undeniable that a sense of joy rose from Zhuo Ming's heart.His ancestral home is Yangzhou, that famous land of romance, how could it be impossible to attract these nobles of the nation?It was not the first time he had seen those ugly faces, but it was also the first time he had seen them kneeling on the ground in humility, kneeling in front of this Ming Xiaoling Mausoleum, their eyes full of despair.
This feeling reached its peak after seeing three hundred heads fall to the ground with a single command.
He let out a long breath, and looked at Lin Yu standing in the front with burning eyes.He was holding a knife with a cold light in his hand, and it was this handsome general who swung his hand first, cutting off a person's head as if nothing had happened.
However, the blood dripping down the blade makes people know that this general is not as harmless as he looks. It can be said that after most of Jiangnan has been handed over to Lin Yu, no one will kill the rumored general again. The elegant and elegant six-yuan champion was linked together.
Lin Yu did not pass the knife in his hand to the sergeant beside him. According to the procedure, he should pass the knife at this time, and the next step is the ceremony of sealing the king in front of the mausoleum.When he does this, other people can't make a sound to stop him, so they can only watch.
At this time, Lin Yu was wearing a military uniform like a soldier, but because he participated in such an unprecedented memorial ceremony, the big dress he was wearing today was no longer the bright red looped jacket.The style of the dress refers to the style of the military uniform and also takes into account the principle of simplicity and convenience, but the color is black.This can be regarded as setting the tone for the color of the auspicious clothes in the future, just like the Han system, still black.
Lin Yu was not very interested in the theory of the five virtues, but he sincerely yearned for the first emperor who had swept away the world. When he brought it up, the officials who studied the etiquette system were speechless.After all, Han inherits the Qin system, so Shang Hei is justified.
After the Han Dynasty, most of the emperor's clothes were yellow. It was because of the red scarf army in the previous Ming Dynasty that they had a special liking for red. The emperor's dress was very different from the color of red in the previous dynasty.
In their eyes, Lin Yu admired a strong man, and it made sense to move closer to that time in accordance with the etiquette system.Fortunately, they didn't know for the time being that Lin Yu wanted to follow the example of the First Emperor and conquer all the land he could see to build an unprecedented new Han Dynasty, otherwise the public opinion would be in an uproar.
The black uniform on his body looked extraordinarily solemn, Lin Yu didn't wait for them to present the prince's great dress, and under the surprised eyes of everyone, he walked over by himself, picked up the robe and put it on his body.
The large robe stretched out in the wind and fell on Lin Yu's shoulders. Everyone could see the military uniform that was close to the body under the black royal robe.I saw that he stepped on the blood donation on the ground step by step without hesitation, and walked in front of people.
Facing the eyes of everyone silently watching him, Lin Yu raised the long knife still stained with blood in his hand, pointed forward, and said:
"From today onwards, I am the King of Han."
"Starting from today, the Northern Expedition!"
Like pushing a golden mountain and falling a jade pillar, all the soldiers looked at the figure in front of them, knelt down on one knee, and shouted loudly:
"The King of Han is mighty!"
"The King of Han is mighty!"
"The King of Han is mighty!"
When the ceremony was over, Lin Yu led his men to leave in an orderly manner, and the three hundred corpses in front of him were also handled properly by the soldiers who stayed on guard. Zhuo Ming then supported each other with the people around him.
He once didn't understand why Lin Yu, who was born as a scholar, was able to win many battles. He also firmly believed that Lin Yu and the others were traitors, and as soon as the imperial army was dispatched, they would be wiped out.Even after reading those newspapers, he still has doubts about the future of Jiangnan.
This is also a common thing, except for Dong Fan's people, the soldiers who have been following Lin Yu.As long as Lin Yu did not secure the throne in the north, they would feel uneasy for a day.
However, after this scene, Zhuo Ming's heart suddenly became clear, and he suddenly realized that there was no reason why such a person could not defeat Emperor Longchang who had been huddled in the deep palace in the north.That person who kills his father and younger brother is not responsible for his position.
Lin Yu, no, the figure of the King of Han wearing a royal robe with his back facing them with a long blade in his hand raised high, can't leave his mind for the rest of his life.Zhuo Ming touched his beating heart, and suddenly had the urge to throw a pen and join the army.
Only by following such a person can the sentence in the history book be realized:
Whoever offends my strong man will be punished even if he is far away!
With Lin Yu's order, all the words about King Wu in all the circulars that had been drafted needed to be changed, and everyone was busy up and down.However, no one complained, especially those who experienced the spot.
In particular, the King of Han had already called out the Northern Expedition on the spot, and I am afraid that it would reach the ears of the northern court in a few days.Fortunately, this part still came according to plan. Today, with the report on the implementation of the ceremony, this news has been informed to the entire Jinling City.
In a blink of an eye, there was no one in Jiangnan who didn't know the words Hanwang and Northern Expedition.
At the same time, several well-trained gray feather pigeons flew to various places with letter boxes on their feet.Especially in Dongfan Beizhou, the plaque of King Wu's Mansion that had been prepared by the General's Mansion could not be used, so they had to rush to make it again.Those who knew the inside story couldn't laugh or cry. After laughing, Chang Ziqian touched her big pregnant belly with a worried look on her face.
Don't dare to say that you regret teaching your husband and son-in-law to find a Marquis. Lin Yu's current career is no longer just a Marquis.Back then, when she was happily married, she also thought that she would be a first-class imperial wife like a grandmother in the future.
Who would have imagined that her first child has not yet been born, and she has already put on the clothes of a princess, and her husband and son-in-law have already led the army on the road to the Northern Expedition.
I hope this trip goes smoothly and peacefully, she prayed silently in her heart, she is pregnant now, she is the eldest son, everyone is very nervous, not to mention incense, she dare not even sprinkle perfume in the house.Just put a plate of fresh fruit every day to borrow a little fragrance of the fruit.
That's it, these fruits don't know how many people have to go through the inspection.
"My cousin is always casual. I never thought that even the process of title titles that he had decided would be randomized by him." Daiyu, who was accompanying her sister-in-law, laughed. Didn't she know Chang Ziqian's worries? Speaking of the Northern Expedition, lest it make her feel bad and hurt her body.
Speaking of this, Chang Ziqian couldn't help covering her lips and said with a smile: "You see, he has always planned and planned everything, but in fact, he is the easiest to break his own plan. It is obviously self-willed, and fortunately he can handle it by himself." .”
"What are you talking about?" Following Lin Yu's conferment of the king, the underground clan will also be conferred with the title.However, the clan that Lin Yu recognized was only Lin Ruhai's family. He had already moved his clan out when he was in Gusu.Now, it is not troublesome for Lin Yu and Lin Ruhai to merge together, and it is also passed down from one ancestor.
So this time, Lin Ruhai also has a Marquis process to go, and Jia Min is not the Marquis.She was worried about Chang Ziqian and her little daughter who were left alone in the palace, so she hurried over there as soon as it was over.
"Take off this crown quickly, it will kill me." Jia Min said as he walked, and the girl serving beside him hurried forward to help, and took off the phoenix crown and the dress.
Daiyu bit her handkerchief and said with a smile: "Who asked my mother to come here wearing this, can it not be heavy?"
Jia Min scolded with a smile: "Little heartless, who am I worried about?"
Chang Ziqian was used to seeing the mother and daughter going back and forth, so she smiled and said, "Auntie, sit down quickly, take it easy." She leaned out slightly to take a look at the heavy-duty guy, and said, " It's really a crime."
Fortunately, it's not summer yet, and Jia Min doesn't like to sweat, otherwise she wouldn't dare to come here without taking a bath. She took the hot towel presented by the girl and applied it to her face. The princess has something even heavier!"
Chang Ziqian didn't know what she was talking about, she blushed and said, "Auntie is still so narrow." She couldn't help feeling relieved.
According to what the wife said, the men outside also have a lot of things to do.
Needless to say, Chang Kemin is still in Fujian and is very busy.Prefect Bai didn't have a pair of eyes at this critical moment, wishing he could stare at both sides. Even if Mrs. Zheng had always been law-abiding, it was his duty not to relax.If you relax and something happens, what can you say?
Huang Shi was even more busy between the papers. For Lin Yu, a king of Han, he grasped all the information lines and wanted to make corrections everywhere.For a while, there were more pigeons on the heads of the people.
Lin Ruhai, on the other hand, finally ushered in a short rest period after being busy with the Marquis Conferring Ceremony.
Before the Northern Expedition, he worked overtime around the clock, and when all the preparations were completed, he never stopped, and he didn't even have time to drink tea.It's finally healed now. Although Lin Yu, a Han king, made a little trouble, but he has already decided on the Marquis, and he doesn't need a title, so there is nothing to change.
It's just that Huang Shi might not be able to sleep tonight, Lin Ruhai thought of this, gloated and smiled, who told him to go out to watch the fun in front of him before?
He stood up and was about to change the dress he was wearing. When he went to the government office in Beizhou to see the strange beasts from other continents, his eyes fell on the black marquis costume, and he couldn't help being startled.
Before, he really didn't expect that Lin Yu would do this when he returned to the clan.After passing through the two families, they became closer in the grandfather's generation, but it is a fact that he and the Gusu clan are in the same family.
Lin Ruhai always knew that Lin Yu didn't care much about the clan, but he really didn't expect that he would be so indifferent.Moreover, I am afraid that there are other considerations in this move.
Both families are not very prosperous, but if the clan members are added, then at the beginning of the founding of the country, the clan will expand to 300 people.This is obviously not in line with Lin Yu's purpose of attacking the power of the Xiangzi clan. According to his character of taking one step and thinking about dozens of steps, he should have been prepared long ago.
Lin Ruhai guessed correctly, Lin Yu knew that it would not be so easy for him to move the clan, especially since everyone knew that he was the No. [-] Scholar, how could the tribe let him go so easily.And in the early stage of the incident, since his name was not known, he acquiesced to this, and used this period of time to make a lot of preparations that were too late to do before, so there was no need to take the initiative to disclose it to the Gusu Lin tribe. Know.
The relocation of the clan had already been explained when Lin Yu sent people to Gusu.There's no need to mention it rashly, it's just to give the patriarch a word first so that he knows what's in his mind.The current patriarch, Lin Yu, knew it. He was usually the most cautious and rigid.When Lin Yu stationed troops in Jiaxing, he became famous all over the world, and the first thing he knew was Gusu, which was close to Jiaxing.
At that time, the patriarch gathered all the clan members and agreed to move Lin Yu out.Of course, don't say whether these people will regret it in the future.Now, after hearing the news that Lin Yu is the King of Han and the Northern Expedition is imminent, some people have begun to regret it.
At this time, even a person with a vicious mind would not dare to curse Lin Yu for defeat.You know, even if the clan has been divided, they have heard of Emperor Longchang's reputation for tyranny in the north.Who can tell clearly if Lin Yu is defeated, will the opponent be angry and refuse to admit the previous move?
These are just some careful thoughts. Lin Yu, who has been running to the pier non-stop since coming out of Ming Xiaoling, can't control so much.Just in the early hours of this morning, Lin Yu's boat was admitted to the wharf outside Jinling City.
The flags were flying, and the big boats covering the sky and the sun filled the river, but this scene was not seen by any outsiders because several piers were all under martial law.
Lin Yu boarded the boat, he took the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal, and another navy had already marched north by sea, long before Lin Yu announced the Northern Expedition.
On the boat, Chenlong was already waiting inside respectfully.
"What's the situation in the north now?" Lin Yu asked.When he decided on the Northern Expedition, the first order he gave was to cut off the water transportation.At this time, Chenlong's busiest thing was to communicate news from the north to the south, and he didn't need to travel between the north and the south by boat.
"The price of food has doubled, but it seems that it is not stable anymore, and there are constant complaints in the city." Chen Long said cautiously.
"Is there anything wrong with the rice grain store we opened in the city?" Lin Yu asked after thinking about it.
Thinking of this, Chenlong shook his head, with a mocking smile on his face, and said: "Not only us, but also many grain merchants are running into the capital?"
"Tell Maotu to watch carefully. If there is any grain shop whose owner is from Jiangnan, pay attention to collecting evidence. The first case of treason in history happens to be those people." Lin Yu said murderously, he really didn't know such a thing Dried for the first time.
"No!" Chen Long clasped his hands and went down to get ready.
Just like what Chenlong said, life in the capital is not easy now.The price of food doubled. This is because a few people in the cabinet saw that the situation was wrong, and they were afraid that before the outside came in, there would be a civil uprising inside, so they used thunderous means to suppress it.
Lin Yu's grain store in the capital is very small, and the daily supply of grain is not much.If there are too many, they will be confiscated by the court and supplied to the army. This is not asking for trouble for oneself.Such small shops are not very eye-catching against the backdrop of the big businessmen from Shanxi, and some ordinary people know that there are still conscientious businesses here, and they haven't raised their prices fiercely.
The price has to be increased a little, otherwise it would be asking for trouble if it is too conspicuous, Maotu is not so stupid.At most, the outside price is doubled, and he will pay less by [-]%, which is just a few pennies.But in the eyes of the common people, a few pennies is a big deal.
Under such circumstances, the business of Zuixianlou is getting better and better.However, the idlers who usually come here are gone, and there are more idle bannermen's children.They criticized the emperor's inaction, deliberately lowered their voices and whispered about the current act of killing fathers and brothers.It is useless to criticize the ministers in the court, as if changing them can save the building from falling.
While holding a shopkeeper's sleek smile, Maotu slandered in his heart, if all the bannermen had this kind of virtue, then the great cause of Hanwang would be much easier.He listened carefully to these people's bragging. Even though he knew that there would be no new news from these people's mouths, he was still unwilling to let go of a word.What Lord Hanwang said, yes, this is called professionalism.
He considers himself a very professional person, so after receiving the news, he never idled for a moment in private.According to the task assigned by Lin Yu, there is no need for him to cooperate with the outside world to do such a feat as opening the city gate.No matter how incompetent the banner soldiers are, tens of thousands of people will not be deceived.
Not to mention assassinating Emperor Longchang, Lin Yu said, this is what their sergeant needs to do.If possible, he hoped to capture Emperor Longchang alive, and then use it to sacrifice to Emperor Yongle lying in Changling like the story of Xiaoling Mausoleum in Ming Dynasty.
Therefore, what he really needs to do is to protect the classics in the capital, especially the Yongle Canon, before Lin Yu invades.The national treasury, food, gold and silver are all insufficient, but the loss of the Yongle Grand Ceremony is an unforgettable event that has always been on Lin Yu's mind.
These classics are also lacking in Lin Yu's hands.After all, those who provided his classics can synthesize gold and silver, but they cannot fabricate knowledge out of thin air.
Maotu has spilled most of his secrets these days, and has been paying attention to the Imperial Academy in the capital.As long as there is chaos in the city, these dark men will immediately rush in and steal the ceremony and hide it.
When all the old men in the restaurant have left, Maotu will close the door, even if the sun is just setting in the west at this time.This is not an eye-catching thing, after all, there are more shops that close earlier or not open at all than him, and his business is still good.
Maotu closed the door, settled the accounts according to the usual practice, checked the money in the drawer, carefully took out all the money and put them into the bag, and then walked towards the cellar.
There is a reason why most people like to build secret rooms in cellars. After all, in the era when sound insulation technology was not very good, the thick soil layer above the cellar played a good role in natural sound insulation.However, Lin Yu's subordinates had no such doubts.
As the so-called master-like type, it is easy for subordinates to imitate their bosses.Lin Yu is a person who is very good at playing tricks and likes to put things on the bright side.Similarly, when he designed a restaurant for espionage purposes like Zuixianlou, it was impossible to have secret rooms, darkrooms and cellars.
If someone enters Zuixian Tower to search, they will find that it is a clean restaurant, and even the accounts are all flat except for small, due 'discrepancies'.
The real key things are actually on the bright side, and there is nothing to say about the accounts.When Lin Yu left the capital, he handed over all the money transfers in Zuixianlou, Zhuijin Pavilion, and Yuying Pavilion to Maotu.On the surface, all the money was sent to the owner's house in the south of the Yangtze River, but in fact, it was all held in the hands of Mao Tu, as his envoy in the capital.
The original account of the flow of this part of the money is actually sent to the south every month, and Maotu does not keep it with him.
Just like his weapon, who would have thought that there would be a small pistol in the heavy bag of a shopkeeper?Anyone who knew it would think it was money, except for thieves who robbed houses, no one would be interested in it.
For example, there are two people standing in front of Maotu, one tall and one short.
He silently looked at the big knife in the hands of the tall man across from him, and the wooden stick in the hands of the short man next to him, with a slick smile on his face.
"What are you two heroes doing?" He stood where he was, as if he didn't see the threat in their hands, and said calmly.
The two on the opposite side were obviously novices, and with Maotu's eyesight, he could naturally see the mottled rust on the knife, as well as the slightly trembling elbow.However, if they are facing an ordinary person, such a threat is enough.
The two people were not very scared when they saw the shopkeeper, it was not at all different from what they imagined when they bowed down and handed over the money respectfully.The short man was already a little timid in his heart, so he took a small step back.The sharp-eyed tall man pinched his back, gestured at Maotu with a knife, and lowered his voice: "The shopkeeper welcomes you, why don't you watch it? If you want to survive, throw your bag over. Don't try to run, our brothers are already surrounded outside!"
Hearing this, Mao Tu said, "Since the two good men are just looking for money, the young one is naturally willing to give money." Of course he knew that the two were bluffing, if the Zuixian Tower was really surrounded, he would not If he knew, he wouldn't have to go back to the south to meet the King of Han, he didn't have such a face.
Right behind the two of them, a thin and small figure ran over silently along the beam, and when it got close to the two of them, it landed on the ground without a sound.His eyeballs were bright in the darkness, obviously staring at the necks of these two people.
The two people were still ignorant, and their eyes fell on Maotu's hand that took the bag from his shoulder.The bag is made of white cloth, and there are pockets on both ends, which can put some things.The heavy and irregular appearance, in their imagination, is not just a string of copper coins, maybe there is also silver!Who doesn't know that Zuixianlou's business is famously good, even at such a time, their family still has customers.
Seeing this, Maotu chuckled and said, "The money is all here, so the good man must hold the knife steadily!"
The short man couldn't help but stepped forward to collect the cash, but the tall man behind him felt his heart beating wildly, but it was too late to shout at this time, his last impression was a pair of black and bright tricks, and he didn't even have time to hum It went down immediately.
The murderer caught the fallen body of the tall man lightly, and put it gently on the ground.When he raised his head again, the little man who ran to get the money tilted his head to one side, apparently dead enough to die no more.
Maotu hung up his bag again, and said to the kid who lowered his head to plead guilty: "It should have come in when you were out to receive the news, it was not your fault." He lowered down to examine the corpse, opened the mask to look at it, and then stood up , "It's an idler on the street, turn around and ask Ni Er to recognize him, if there are any cronies, tell him to keep an eye on him, and don't be stingy with his strength when necessary."
The boy responded, handed over the message in his hand, and then dragged the two heavy corpses down.This method of killing is quite popular in the Earthly Branches, and it is easy to deal with without bloodshed.The only thing needed is the explosive power at the moment when the neck is twisted, but those who can successfully join the earthly branch have not undergone rigorous training, what they lack is skill.
Maotu routinely checked the sealing wax before unscrewing the bamboo tube and taking out the message inside.He glanced at it and then destroyed the letter in his hand.
The news came from King Han, asking him to pay attention to whether there are grain merchants in the south of the Yangtze River who are selling grain to the court, and to keep evidence.There is no need to explain this, Maotu has already started to pay attention when he learned that the water transportation is about to stop.
Since the smooth communication between the north and the south, most of the food needed in the capital has been transported by water.What Lin Yu did was not to set the northern court on the fire and roast it.
In contrast, so many people on the water transport have no work to do, they are all young and strong, and a day of stopping is a day of risk.However, Lin Yu already had countermeasures for this.Such young and strong people are landless people. Although barefoot people are not afraid of wearing shoes, they are prone to accidents, and because they have too little, they are also easy to appease.
The new continent in the south has been discovered, and when a large number of people are officially needed to develop it, what is more suitable than these people?
Although, it is too far away to say this before he has unified the whole country or even conquered the capital.However, once the country stabilizes, the war will be over.Lin Yu is sure that there will be a wave of baby births soon, and not only that, but he will also follow the example of the first story to encourage births, and anyone who refuses to give birth (infant drowning) will be sent to a labor camp after being caught.
In his original history, a group of so-called "public intellectuals" crazily criticized the first policy of encouraging population, envied the large land and sparse population of the United States, and everyone could live in a villa, and said how much burden it added to the earth.
Lin Yu doubted it when he was young and ignorant.But when he grew up, he realized that population means huge productivity and a huge market.This is one of the reasons why the country remained safe and sound despite the downturn in the real economy and even the economic crisis that broke out several times around the world.Of course, there are many other reasons. The economy is always complicated, but it is undeniable that the support of so many people has played a considerable role.
Even if you don't pursue these distant worlds to Lin Yu, population is an unavoidable link in his current situation and even in his future plans.
In such an era, if you want to occupy a continent, guns are important, but population is also one of the most important factors.For a strange continent to be developed, the population means the social environment, culture, and the enlightenment that Lin Yu has been reciting.
One thing, when there's only one person to do it, he's crazy.When there are 100 people doing it, it will attract attention.When you can see that everyone is doing it, those who have not done it will unconsciously imitate it, which is determined by the social nature of people.
Of course, it is not impossible for Lin Yu to kill a person like a European and leave a bad smell for a hundred years, but this is not in line with the character of the Chinese people who value peace as the most important thing, so why force it.No matter how much he hopes that the people of the country can be as tough as the people in the Western Han Dynasty, the martial spirit can never be cultivated in just a few years.What's more, since the Song Dynasty, the common people have been used to valuing literature over martial arts. Lin Yu wondered if he could see it in his lifetime if he wanted to change such a deep-rooted thought.
Don't you see, even in the middle school after a century of humiliation, those who actively join the army are still a minority.In many cases, Chinese people would rather go out to work than do military service.
So, again, population.Fortunately, the emergence of cowpox and the reformed medical system will greatly increase the survival rate of these babies. At that time, the driving force to feed these populations will prompt the army to conquer every piece of land they can see , anyone who tries to block such a war machine will be crushed to pieces.
In this way, the custody made those Western scumbags tremble under such a huge empire and such a powerful army, and dare not stroke their beards a little.
And the premise of realizing all this is that he must win the capital first.
The army passed by, but the officers and soldiers along the way did not dare to show their faces, and there were still many merchants and gentry families trying to "comfort" Master Wang.It is doomed that they are all on fire | their hot hearts are all thrown into the icy river, even if the water transportation stops, Chenlong still finds a way to prepare a lot of food and grass in the places he passes, enough for Lin Yu's army to drive all the way to the capital without stopping .
There was only the fleet of Lin Yu's army left on the entire river, and at this time there was no need to stop the boats at night to avoid collisions.Anyone with eyes would not run to the canal at this time to find pleasure. Even the official ship still looks small in front of such a warship. If there is a collision, it will not be me who dies.
A flotilla of fleets covering the sky and the sun sailed across the river. The ships were steamships and did not rely entirely on wind power.Under the cabin, there are rows of laborers shouting chant and stepping on the pedals non-stop. A large part of these laborers came from water transportation, and Chenzi's men are also reassuring.
A practical steam engine that can be equipped on a ship has been developed, but the speed is too slow to be as good as manpower, so even if Lin Yu wants to go to the capital by steam ship, this wish cannot be realized for the time being.
However, since it can be equipped, it doesn't matter if it is slower, it can always be solved.
While Lin Yu was thinking about his plans for the next few decades, the army ships had already arrived at Tongzhou Wharf.This is already the end of the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal, and it is only about twenty kilometers away from the capital.According to the footsteps of the Han army's rapid march, it was only a little more than an hour, and this still took into account factors such as luggage.
When they stopped on the pier, it was midnight. After Lin Yu sent out a sentry, he ordered the other soldiers to continue to rest.
With the capital in front of him, Lin Yu was wearing a robe, and suddenly remembered that sentence inappropriately:
I come, I see, I conquer.
As lucky as he is, there are octogenarians with a cane, gentry who have also undergone rigorous screening, sergeants from the general's mansion who stand upright, and students from Jinling Xishan Academy.The officiant was Xin Zongping's grandfather, the dean of Xishan College, the master of General Lin, and the future imperial teacher Xin Hui. He read aloud:
"...The country's foreign aggression has never been heard of in ancient times. It was built at the end of Zhao and Song Dynasties, and it was born in Mongolia. Lai here. Unfortunately, Ji Shichu was disturbed, and the national strength was exhausted. Man Jing took the opportunity to enter the Central Xia Dynasty. The people of our country, all the fathers and brothers, have been busy..."
Mr. Xin's voice was old and heavy, and every time he said a sentence, a dozen or so big men stood up and answered the sentence, and spread this sacrificial oration far away.This sacrificial article was written by Lin Yu himself. No matter how much the people in the north deny it, he is still an undisputed talent of six yuan. Whether Lin Yu himself recognizes it is another matter. The article he concocted is indeed fascinating. All followed with enthusiasm.
However, Lin Yu thought about it for a while, and added the part about Sun Guofu in his original world as a commemoration.
After burning the sacrificial table, the following is the highlight.
For a moment, the wind stopped, and the whole mausoleum was quiet and permeating for a moment.Zhuo Ming's excellent eyes made him instantly see the helpless Manchu who was being escorted and knelt on the stone slab, trembling a few times. They already knew that this was their end.
It is undeniable that a sense of joy rose from Zhuo Ming's heart.His ancestral home is Yangzhou, that famous land of romance, how could it be impossible to attract these nobles of the nation?It was not the first time he had seen those ugly faces, but it was also the first time he had seen them kneeling on the ground in humility, kneeling in front of this Ming Xiaoling Mausoleum, their eyes full of despair.
This feeling reached its peak after seeing three hundred heads fall to the ground with a single command.
He let out a long breath, and looked at Lin Yu standing in the front with burning eyes.He was holding a knife with a cold light in his hand, and it was this handsome general who swung his hand first, cutting off a person's head as if nothing had happened.
However, the blood dripping down the blade makes people know that this general is not as harmless as he looks. It can be said that after most of Jiangnan has been handed over to Lin Yu, no one will kill the rumored general again. The elegant and elegant six-yuan champion was linked together.
Lin Yu did not pass the knife in his hand to the sergeant beside him. According to the procedure, he should pass the knife at this time, and the next step is the ceremony of sealing the king in front of the mausoleum.When he does this, other people can't make a sound to stop him, so they can only watch.
At this time, Lin Yu was wearing a military uniform like a soldier, but because he participated in such an unprecedented memorial ceremony, the big dress he was wearing today was no longer the bright red looped jacket.The style of the dress refers to the style of the military uniform and also takes into account the principle of simplicity and convenience, but the color is black.This can be regarded as setting the tone for the color of the auspicious clothes in the future, just like the Han system, still black.
Lin Yu was not very interested in the theory of the five virtues, but he sincerely yearned for the first emperor who had swept away the world. When he brought it up, the officials who studied the etiquette system were speechless.After all, Han inherits the Qin system, so Shang Hei is justified.
After the Han Dynasty, most of the emperor's clothes were yellow. It was because of the red scarf army in the previous Ming Dynasty that they had a special liking for red. The emperor's dress was very different from the color of red in the previous dynasty.
In their eyes, Lin Yu admired a strong man, and it made sense to move closer to that time in accordance with the etiquette system.Fortunately, they didn't know for the time being that Lin Yu wanted to follow the example of the First Emperor and conquer all the land he could see to build an unprecedented new Han Dynasty, otherwise the public opinion would be in an uproar.
The black uniform on his body looked extraordinarily solemn, Lin Yu didn't wait for them to present the prince's great dress, and under the surprised eyes of everyone, he walked over by himself, picked up the robe and put it on his body.
The large robe stretched out in the wind and fell on Lin Yu's shoulders. Everyone could see the military uniform that was close to the body under the black royal robe.I saw that he stepped on the blood donation on the ground step by step without hesitation, and walked in front of people.
Facing the eyes of everyone silently watching him, Lin Yu raised the long knife still stained with blood in his hand, pointed forward, and said:
"From today onwards, I am the King of Han."
"Starting from today, the Northern Expedition!"
Like pushing a golden mountain and falling a jade pillar, all the soldiers looked at the figure in front of them, knelt down on one knee, and shouted loudly:
"The King of Han is mighty!"
"The King of Han is mighty!"
"The King of Han is mighty!"
When the ceremony was over, Lin Yu led his men to leave in an orderly manner, and the three hundred corpses in front of him were also handled properly by the soldiers who stayed on guard. Zhuo Ming then supported each other with the people around him.
He once didn't understand why Lin Yu, who was born as a scholar, was able to win many battles. He also firmly believed that Lin Yu and the others were traitors, and as soon as the imperial army was dispatched, they would be wiped out.Even after reading those newspapers, he still has doubts about the future of Jiangnan.
This is also a common thing, except for Dong Fan's people, the soldiers who have been following Lin Yu.As long as Lin Yu did not secure the throne in the north, they would feel uneasy for a day.
However, after this scene, Zhuo Ming's heart suddenly became clear, and he suddenly realized that there was no reason why such a person could not defeat Emperor Longchang who had been huddled in the deep palace in the north.That person who kills his father and younger brother is not responsible for his position.
Lin Yu, no, the figure of the King of Han wearing a royal robe with his back facing them with a long blade in his hand raised high, can't leave his mind for the rest of his life.Zhuo Ming touched his beating heart, and suddenly had the urge to throw a pen and join the army.
Only by following such a person can the sentence in the history book be realized:
Whoever offends my strong man will be punished even if he is far away!
With Lin Yu's order, all the words about King Wu in all the circulars that had been drafted needed to be changed, and everyone was busy up and down.However, no one complained, especially those who experienced the spot.
In particular, the King of Han had already called out the Northern Expedition on the spot, and I am afraid that it would reach the ears of the northern court in a few days.Fortunately, this part still came according to plan. Today, with the report on the implementation of the ceremony, this news has been informed to the entire Jinling City.
In a blink of an eye, there was no one in Jiangnan who didn't know the words Hanwang and Northern Expedition.
At the same time, several well-trained gray feather pigeons flew to various places with letter boxes on their feet.Especially in Dongfan Beizhou, the plaque of King Wu's Mansion that had been prepared by the General's Mansion could not be used, so they had to rush to make it again.Those who knew the inside story couldn't laugh or cry. After laughing, Chang Ziqian touched her big pregnant belly with a worried look on her face.
Don't dare to say that you regret teaching your husband and son-in-law to find a Marquis. Lin Yu's current career is no longer just a Marquis.Back then, when she was happily married, she also thought that she would be a first-class imperial wife like a grandmother in the future.
Who would have imagined that her first child has not yet been born, and she has already put on the clothes of a princess, and her husband and son-in-law have already led the army on the road to the Northern Expedition.
I hope this trip goes smoothly and peacefully, she prayed silently in her heart, she is pregnant now, she is the eldest son, everyone is very nervous, not to mention incense, she dare not even sprinkle perfume in the house.Just put a plate of fresh fruit every day to borrow a little fragrance of the fruit.
That's it, these fruits don't know how many people have to go through the inspection.
"My cousin is always casual. I never thought that even the process of title titles that he had decided would be randomized by him." Daiyu, who was accompanying her sister-in-law, laughed. Didn't she know Chang Ziqian's worries? Speaking of the Northern Expedition, lest it make her feel bad and hurt her body.
Speaking of this, Chang Ziqian couldn't help covering her lips and said with a smile: "You see, he has always planned and planned everything, but in fact, he is the easiest to break his own plan. It is obviously self-willed, and fortunately he can handle it by himself." .”
"What are you talking about?" Following Lin Yu's conferment of the king, the underground clan will also be conferred with the title.However, the clan that Lin Yu recognized was only Lin Ruhai's family. He had already moved his clan out when he was in Gusu.Now, it is not troublesome for Lin Yu and Lin Ruhai to merge together, and it is also passed down from one ancestor.
So this time, Lin Ruhai also has a Marquis process to go, and Jia Min is not the Marquis.She was worried about Chang Ziqian and her little daughter who were left alone in the palace, so she hurried over there as soon as it was over.
"Take off this crown quickly, it will kill me." Jia Min said as he walked, and the girl serving beside him hurried forward to help, and took off the phoenix crown and the dress.
Daiyu bit her handkerchief and said with a smile: "Who asked my mother to come here wearing this, can it not be heavy?"
Jia Min scolded with a smile: "Little heartless, who am I worried about?"
Chang Ziqian was used to seeing the mother and daughter going back and forth, so she smiled and said, "Auntie, sit down quickly, take it easy." She leaned out slightly to take a look at the heavy-duty guy, and said, " It's really a crime."
Fortunately, it's not summer yet, and Jia Min doesn't like to sweat, otherwise she wouldn't dare to come here without taking a bath. She took the hot towel presented by the girl and applied it to her face. The princess has something even heavier!"
Chang Ziqian didn't know what she was talking about, she blushed and said, "Auntie is still so narrow." She couldn't help feeling relieved.
According to what the wife said, the men outside also have a lot of things to do.
Needless to say, Chang Kemin is still in Fujian and is very busy.Prefect Bai didn't have a pair of eyes at this critical moment, wishing he could stare at both sides. Even if Mrs. Zheng had always been law-abiding, it was his duty not to relax.If you relax and something happens, what can you say?
Huang Shi was even more busy between the papers. For Lin Yu, a king of Han, he grasped all the information lines and wanted to make corrections everywhere.For a while, there were more pigeons on the heads of the people.
Lin Ruhai, on the other hand, finally ushered in a short rest period after being busy with the Marquis Conferring Ceremony.
Before the Northern Expedition, he worked overtime around the clock, and when all the preparations were completed, he never stopped, and he didn't even have time to drink tea.It's finally healed now. Although Lin Yu, a Han king, made a little trouble, but he has already decided on the Marquis, and he doesn't need a title, so there is nothing to change.
It's just that Huang Shi might not be able to sleep tonight, Lin Ruhai thought of this, gloated and smiled, who told him to go out to watch the fun in front of him before?
He stood up and was about to change the dress he was wearing. When he went to the government office in Beizhou to see the strange beasts from other continents, his eyes fell on the black marquis costume, and he couldn't help being startled.
Before, he really didn't expect that Lin Yu would do this when he returned to the clan.After passing through the two families, they became closer in the grandfather's generation, but it is a fact that he and the Gusu clan are in the same family.
Lin Ruhai always knew that Lin Yu didn't care much about the clan, but he really didn't expect that he would be so indifferent.Moreover, I am afraid that there are other considerations in this move.
Both families are not very prosperous, but if the clan members are added, then at the beginning of the founding of the country, the clan will expand to 300 people.This is obviously not in line with Lin Yu's purpose of attacking the power of the Xiangzi clan. According to his character of taking one step and thinking about dozens of steps, he should have been prepared long ago.
Lin Ruhai guessed correctly, Lin Yu knew that it would not be so easy for him to move the clan, especially since everyone knew that he was the No. [-] Scholar, how could the tribe let him go so easily.And in the early stage of the incident, since his name was not known, he acquiesced to this, and used this period of time to make a lot of preparations that were too late to do before, so there was no need to take the initiative to disclose it to the Gusu Lin tribe. Know.
The relocation of the clan had already been explained when Lin Yu sent people to Gusu.There's no need to mention it rashly, it's just to give the patriarch a word first so that he knows what's in his mind.The current patriarch, Lin Yu, knew it. He was usually the most cautious and rigid.When Lin Yu stationed troops in Jiaxing, he became famous all over the world, and the first thing he knew was Gusu, which was close to Jiaxing.
At that time, the patriarch gathered all the clan members and agreed to move Lin Yu out.Of course, don't say whether these people will regret it in the future.Now, after hearing the news that Lin Yu is the King of Han and the Northern Expedition is imminent, some people have begun to regret it.
At this time, even a person with a vicious mind would not dare to curse Lin Yu for defeat.You know, even if the clan has been divided, they have heard of Emperor Longchang's reputation for tyranny in the north.Who can tell clearly if Lin Yu is defeated, will the opponent be angry and refuse to admit the previous move?
These are just some careful thoughts. Lin Yu, who has been running to the pier non-stop since coming out of Ming Xiaoling, can't control so much.Just in the early hours of this morning, Lin Yu's boat was admitted to the wharf outside Jinling City.
The flags were flying, and the big boats covering the sky and the sun filled the river, but this scene was not seen by any outsiders because several piers were all under martial law.
Lin Yu boarded the boat, he took the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal, and another navy had already marched north by sea, long before Lin Yu announced the Northern Expedition.
On the boat, Chenlong was already waiting inside respectfully.
"What's the situation in the north now?" Lin Yu asked.When he decided on the Northern Expedition, the first order he gave was to cut off the water transportation.At this time, Chenlong's busiest thing was to communicate news from the north to the south, and he didn't need to travel between the north and the south by boat.
"The price of food has doubled, but it seems that it is not stable anymore, and there are constant complaints in the city." Chen Long said cautiously.
"Is there anything wrong with the rice grain store we opened in the city?" Lin Yu asked after thinking about it.
Thinking of this, Chenlong shook his head, with a mocking smile on his face, and said: "Not only us, but also many grain merchants are running into the capital?"
"Tell Maotu to watch carefully. If there is any grain shop whose owner is from Jiangnan, pay attention to collecting evidence. The first case of treason in history happens to be those people." Lin Yu said murderously, he really didn't know such a thing Dried for the first time.
"No!" Chen Long clasped his hands and went down to get ready.
Just like what Chenlong said, life in the capital is not easy now.The price of food doubled. This is because a few people in the cabinet saw that the situation was wrong, and they were afraid that before the outside came in, there would be a civil uprising inside, so they used thunderous means to suppress it.
Lin Yu's grain store in the capital is very small, and the daily supply of grain is not much.If there are too many, they will be confiscated by the court and supplied to the army. This is not asking for trouble for oneself.Such small shops are not very eye-catching against the backdrop of the big businessmen from Shanxi, and some ordinary people know that there are still conscientious businesses here, and they haven't raised their prices fiercely.
The price has to be increased a little, otherwise it would be asking for trouble if it is too conspicuous, Maotu is not so stupid.At most, the outside price is doubled, and he will pay less by [-]%, which is just a few pennies.But in the eyes of the common people, a few pennies is a big deal.
Under such circumstances, the business of Zuixianlou is getting better and better.However, the idlers who usually come here are gone, and there are more idle bannermen's children.They criticized the emperor's inaction, deliberately lowered their voices and whispered about the current act of killing fathers and brothers.It is useless to criticize the ministers in the court, as if changing them can save the building from falling.
While holding a shopkeeper's sleek smile, Maotu slandered in his heart, if all the bannermen had this kind of virtue, then the great cause of Hanwang would be much easier.He listened carefully to these people's bragging. Even though he knew that there would be no new news from these people's mouths, he was still unwilling to let go of a word.What Lord Hanwang said, yes, this is called professionalism.
He considers himself a very professional person, so after receiving the news, he never idled for a moment in private.According to the task assigned by Lin Yu, there is no need for him to cooperate with the outside world to do such a feat as opening the city gate.No matter how incompetent the banner soldiers are, tens of thousands of people will not be deceived.
Not to mention assassinating Emperor Longchang, Lin Yu said, this is what their sergeant needs to do.If possible, he hoped to capture Emperor Longchang alive, and then use it to sacrifice to Emperor Yongle lying in Changling like the story of Xiaoling Mausoleum in Ming Dynasty.
Therefore, what he really needs to do is to protect the classics in the capital, especially the Yongle Canon, before Lin Yu invades.The national treasury, food, gold and silver are all insufficient, but the loss of the Yongle Grand Ceremony is an unforgettable event that has always been on Lin Yu's mind.
These classics are also lacking in Lin Yu's hands.After all, those who provided his classics can synthesize gold and silver, but they cannot fabricate knowledge out of thin air.
Maotu has spilled most of his secrets these days, and has been paying attention to the Imperial Academy in the capital.As long as there is chaos in the city, these dark men will immediately rush in and steal the ceremony and hide it.
When all the old men in the restaurant have left, Maotu will close the door, even if the sun is just setting in the west at this time.This is not an eye-catching thing, after all, there are more shops that close earlier or not open at all than him, and his business is still good.
Maotu closed the door, settled the accounts according to the usual practice, checked the money in the drawer, carefully took out all the money and put them into the bag, and then walked towards the cellar.
There is a reason why most people like to build secret rooms in cellars. After all, in the era when sound insulation technology was not very good, the thick soil layer above the cellar played a good role in natural sound insulation.However, Lin Yu's subordinates had no such doubts.
As the so-called master-like type, it is easy for subordinates to imitate their bosses.Lin Yu is a person who is very good at playing tricks and likes to put things on the bright side.Similarly, when he designed a restaurant for espionage purposes like Zuixianlou, it was impossible to have secret rooms, darkrooms and cellars.
If someone enters Zuixian Tower to search, they will find that it is a clean restaurant, and even the accounts are all flat except for small, due 'discrepancies'.
The real key things are actually on the bright side, and there is nothing to say about the accounts.When Lin Yu left the capital, he handed over all the money transfers in Zuixianlou, Zhuijin Pavilion, and Yuying Pavilion to Maotu.On the surface, all the money was sent to the owner's house in the south of the Yangtze River, but in fact, it was all held in the hands of Mao Tu, as his envoy in the capital.
The original account of the flow of this part of the money is actually sent to the south every month, and Maotu does not keep it with him.
Just like his weapon, who would have thought that there would be a small pistol in the heavy bag of a shopkeeper?Anyone who knew it would think it was money, except for thieves who robbed houses, no one would be interested in it.
For example, there are two people standing in front of Maotu, one tall and one short.
He silently looked at the big knife in the hands of the tall man across from him, and the wooden stick in the hands of the short man next to him, with a slick smile on his face.
"What are you two heroes doing?" He stood where he was, as if he didn't see the threat in their hands, and said calmly.
The two on the opposite side were obviously novices, and with Maotu's eyesight, he could naturally see the mottled rust on the knife, as well as the slightly trembling elbow.However, if they are facing an ordinary person, such a threat is enough.
The two people were not very scared when they saw the shopkeeper, it was not at all different from what they imagined when they bowed down and handed over the money respectfully.The short man was already a little timid in his heart, so he took a small step back.The sharp-eyed tall man pinched his back, gestured at Maotu with a knife, and lowered his voice: "The shopkeeper welcomes you, why don't you watch it? If you want to survive, throw your bag over. Don't try to run, our brothers are already surrounded outside!"
Hearing this, Mao Tu said, "Since the two good men are just looking for money, the young one is naturally willing to give money." Of course he knew that the two were bluffing, if the Zuixian Tower was really surrounded, he would not If he knew, he wouldn't have to go back to the south to meet the King of Han, he didn't have such a face.
Right behind the two of them, a thin and small figure ran over silently along the beam, and when it got close to the two of them, it landed on the ground without a sound.His eyeballs were bright in the darkness, obviously staring at the necks of these two people.
The two people were still ignorant, and their eyes fell on Maotu's hand that took the bag from his shoulder.The bag is made of white cloth, and there are pockets on both ends, which can put some things.The heavy and irregular appearance, in their imagination, is not just a string of copper coins, maybe there is also silver!Who doesn't know that Zuixianlou's business is famously good, even at such a time, their family still has customers.
Seeing this, Maotu chuckled and said, "The money is all here, so the good man must hold the knife steadily!"
The short man couldn't help but stepped forward to collect the cash, but the tall man behind him felt his heart beating wildly, but it was too late to shout at this time, his last impression was a pair of black and bright tricks, and he didn't even have time to hum It went down immediately.
The murderer caught the fallen body of the tall man lightly, and put it gently on the ground.When he raised his head again, the little man who ran to get the money tilted his head to one side, apparently dead enough to die no more.
Maotu hung up his bag again, and said to the kid who lowered his head to plead guilty: "It should have come in when you were out to receive the news, it was not your fault." He lowered down to examine the corpse, opened the mask to look at it, and then stood up , "It's an idler on the street, turn around and ask Ni Er to recognize him, if there are any cronies, tell him to keep an eye on him, and don't be stingy with his strength when necessary."
The boy responded, handed over the message in his hand, and then dragged the two heavy corpses down.This method of killing is quite popular in the Earthly Branches, and it is easy to deal with without bloodshed.The only thing needed is the explosive power at the moment when the neck is twisted, but those who can successfully join the earthly branch have not undergone rigorous training, what they lack is skill.
Maotu routinely checked the sealing wax before unscrewing the bamboo tube and taking out the message inside.He glanced at it and then destroyed the letter in his hand.
The news came from King Han, asking him to pay attention to whether there are grain merchants in the south of the Yangtze River who are selling grain to the court, and to keep evidence.There is no need to explain this, Maotu has already started to pay attention when he learned that the water transportation is about to stop.
Since the smooth communication between the north and the south, most of the food needed in the capital has been transported by water.What Lin Yu did was not to set the northern court on the fire and roast it.
In contrast, so many people on the water transport have no work to do, they are all young and strong, and a day of stopping is a day of risk.However, Lin Yu already had countermeasures for this.Such young and strong people are landless people. Although barefoot people are not afraid of wearing shoes, they are prone to accidents, and because they have too little, they are also easy to appease.
The new continent in the south has been discovered, and when a large number of people are officially needed to develop it, what is more suitable than these people?
Although, it is too far away to say this before he has unified the whole country or even conquered the capital.However, once the country stabilizes, the war will be over.Lin Yu is sure that there will be a wave of baby births soon, and not only that, but he will also follow the example of the first story to encourage births, and anyone who refuses to give birth (infant drowning) will be sent to a labor camp after being caught.
In his original history, a group of so-called "public intellectuals" crazily criticized the first policy of encouraging population, envied the large land and sparse population of the United States, and everyone could live in a villa, and said how much burden it added to the earth.
Lin Yu doubted it when he was young and ignorant.But when he grew up, he realized that population means huge productivity and a huge market.This is one of the reasons why the country remained safe and sound despite the downturn in the real economy and even the economic crisis that broke out several times around the world.Of course, there are many other reasons. The economy is always complicated, but it is undeniable that the support of so many people has played a considerable role.
Even if you don't pursue these distant worlds to Lin Yu, population is an unavoidable link in his current situation and even in his future plans.
In such an era, if you want to occupy a continent, guns are important, but population is also one of the most important factors.For a strange continent to be developed, the population means the social environment, culture, and the enlightenment that Lin Yu has been reciting.
One thing, when there's only one person to do it, he's crazy.When there are 100 people doing it, it will attract attention.When you can see that everyone is doing it, those who have not done it will unconsciously imitate it, which is determined by the social nature of people.
Of course, it is not impossible for Lin Yu to kill a person like a European and leave a bad smell for a hundred years, but this is not in line with the character of the Chinese people who value peace as the most important thing, so why force it.No matter how much he hopes that the people of the country can be as tough as the people in the Western Han Dynasty, the martial spirit can never be cultivated in just a few years.What's more, since the Song Dynasty, the common people have been used to valuing literature over martial arts. Lin Yu wondered if he could see it in his lifetime if he wanted to change such a deep-rooted thought.
Don't you see, even in the middle school after a century of humiliation, those who actively join the army are still a minority.In many cases, Chinese people would rather go out to work than do military service.
So, again, population.Fortunately, the emergence of cowpox and the reformed medical system will greatly increase the survival rate of these babies. At that time, the driving force to feed these populations will prompt the army to conquer every piece of land they can see , anyone who tries to block such a war machine will be crushed to pieces.
In this way, the custody made those Western scumbags tremble under such a huge empire and such a powerful army, and dare not stroke their beards a little.
And the premise of realizing all this is that he must win the capital first.
The army passed by, but the officers and soldiers along the way did not dare to show their faces, and there were still many merchants and gentry families trying to "comfort" Master Wang.It is doomed that they are all on fire | their hot hearts are all thrown into the icy river, even if the water transportation stops, Chenlong still finds a way to prepare a lot of food and grass in the places he passes, enough for Lin Yu's army to drive all the way to the capital without stopping .
There was only the fleet of Lin Yu's army left on the entire river, and at this time there was no need to stop the boats at night to avoid collisions.Anyone with eyes would not run to the canal at this time to find pleasure. Even the official ship still looks small in front of such a warship. If there is a collision, it will not be me who dies.
A flotilla of fleets covering the sky and the sun sailed across the river. The ships were steamships and did not rely entirely on wind power.Under the cabin, there are rows of laborers shouting chant and stepping on the pedals non-stop. A large part of these laborers came from water transportation, and Chenzi's men are also reassuring.
A practical steam engine that can be equipped on a ship has been developed, but the speed is too slow to be as good as manpower, so even if Lin Yu wants to go to the capital by steam ship, this wish cannot be realized for the time being.
However, since it can be equipped, it doesn't matter if it is slower, it can always be solved.
While Lin Yu was thinking about his plans for the next few decades, the army ships had already arrived at Tongzhou Wharf.This is already the end of the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal, and it is only about twenty kilometers away from the capital.According to the footsteps of the Han army's rapid march, it was only a little more than an hour, and this still took into account factors such as luggage.
When they stopped on the pier, it was midnight. After Lin Yu sent out a sentry, he ordered the other soldiers to continue to rest.
With the capital in front of him, Lin Yu was wearing a robe, and suddenly remembered that sentence inappropriately:
I come, I see, I conquer.
