Zhou Jun has entered the Wushan area. Between the green mountains, the river is turbulent, and the waves roar between the mountains and rivers. A high-pitched and hoarse low voice came from the stone wall by the river: "Hey!" Everyone shouted in unison: "Hey yo..." Others yelled rhythmically: "Hey hello!"

The shouts of the trackers were vigorous and powerful, overwhelming the sound of the waves of the surging river, and exuding strong vitality against the current. Standing on the bow of the ship, Guo Shao was shocked. Looking towards the river, he saw a group of naked men leaning over their bodies, holding on to the stone wall, and struggling forward again and again while shouting. At this time the trumpeter started again and shouted: "Drag!" All the men immediately shouted in unison: "Drag, drag drag..."

In front of the ship, there is a master who is familiar with the local water conditions, and he adjusts the direction of the ship with the leader of the warship to prevent the ship from hitting the rocks. Guo Shao felt that the fate of the warship was connected with the trackers, and the magnificent chants were like shouts on the battlefield.

Before, a ministry would persuade him to leave the ship and go overland, because the ship would be destroyed when it hits the rocks. However, Guo Shao refused. He said he wanted to work with the soldiers...Of course, there was also a reason. He could swim.

This dangerous water journey is not far, and Guo Shao’s flagship passed the most urgent part soon. In the future, ordinary ships may still need trackers to continue to pull, but Zhou Jun Yangtze River warships do not use it, because there are waterwheels with more propeller power, and sails are better; military warships do not count the cost.

The trackers on the shore put up the ropes, sang briskly, and walked back to the east; there are more ships going through the dangerous waters, and of course there are more trackers behind. When Guo Shao listened carefully, most of the songs did not have lyrics, and occasionally there were one or two words but seemed to be local dialect vocabulary, which he did not understand. Perhaps the original music of the ancient ancestors was such a voice, a cry from the heart.

"Come here, get their leader, and I will go ashore to meet." Guo Shao turned back and said to the general.

Guo Shao went ashore in a small boat and saw the army carts and horses on the road along the river like a long dragon, and the tiger flags of the tigers and arms fluttered among the towering and overlapping mountains, which was exceptionally spectacular. Occasionally encounter cliffs, there are also plank roads...In the past, people used hand-carved caves on the stone walls, then inserted wood into the caves, and built planks on top of them; it seems that no matter how sinister nature is, they can’t stop people. Step forward.

A group of naked and ragged rags looked at Guo Shao with their backs. They just used their eyes to express etiquette, and there was nothing to say. Finally a chant came up and bent over and said: "General."

Guo Shao turned around and handed him a bag of copper coins, and said: "Those who have helped us in the same boat and helped the Great Zhou Army are all our allies."

The horn head said happily: "Thanks for the reward, General." The silent trackers heard the sound of coins rushing in the bag, and the atmosphere relaxed, and they spoke in a low voice.

At this time, Guo Shao found Jing Niang on her back, looking helpless. Guo Shao asked the subhead: "Why don't you wear clothes?"

"Can't wear it." The horn head deliberately speaks slowly. Although the accent is different, the pronunciation is still understandable. "We wear clothes easily and get sick when wearing wet clothes."

Guo Shao sighed with sympathy, and then asked, "How are the people here?"

The head of the chant: "The poor mountains and bad waters can’t grow much in the ground, and those who pull the boats down the river will grab our jobs. It’s bitter."

Guo Shao said: "Go back and tell the prestigious village elders in the mountains, let the chiefs and patriarchs nearby bring people to Wushan County, and help the suffering people in the Great Zhou Dynasty."

"Okay, okay." The horn looked at Guo Shao and nodded hurriedly.

Guo Shao waved his hand to let the trackers go, and boarded the boat again. At this time, the minister couldn't help but say: "Although those people are suffering, the Lord has compassion, but there is no need to help them now. It is not easy to transport the rations from the rear, and it is a pity to give it to the mountain people."

Guo Shao said, "We can’t count the cost like that. If Zhou Jun doesn’t cultivate his virtues and his reputation is too bad, what should we do now when sailing? The navy people are not familiar with the sinister water conditions and don’t crash the boat. It’s...the trackers don’t talk about deliberately destroying our boat, escaping into the mountains and not pulling the boat for our guides. This path is hard enough for the army to walk." He patted the general's shoulder, "Those people do hard work. , But it is also a human being, who is good and who is bad can be distinguished. Let us treat them better, the people understand in their hearts."

On the side, Zuo You praised: "The lord's house is built, and the people who win the hearts of the people will win the world."

As he was speaking, he heard "Wow...", a soldier not far away suddenly vomited. Guo Shao turned his head and glanced, and saw that his face was pale, and he said to Zuo You: "I brought some doctors from Jiangling Mansion and told them to make some decoction to prevent diseases."

"Yes, I will urge them immediately." Zuo You said.

The boat is swaying on the river, and the soldiers carrying some tigers on it are mostly northerners, and may not be used to sailing on the river. Thinking that Cao Cao beat Sun Wu back then, it was because northerners were not accustomed to taking boats to connect boats with lattes, so they were hit by fire.

... That afternoon, Guo Shao suddenly got a report. The rear army was attacked by the camp last night, and the grain and straw were burned down.

The civil and military personnel on the warship were in an uproar. Everyone asked, "There is only one road, surrounded by mountains. How can the rear army be attacked?" But the young general who came to report did not know, only that it was the Shu army. The armor with a banner is not a bandit.

Besides, the bandits are okay to provoke the army?

No matter what they were talking about, Guo Shao pulled out a memo from a package, read it again, and handed it to Wang Pu. He continued to look at the map.

Wang Pu said: "Maybe they are from this place, Wushan Junzhai."

A few days ago, forward Dong Zunyao sent a memorial report, and for the first time there was a confrontation with the Shu army. The Shu Army set up a military village on a mountain east of Wushan County. Due to the difficult terrain, Dong Zunjiao sent people to attack several times but failed. So he reported that in order not to block the road and delay the trip, he sent people to block the mountain pass. After the rate continued to advance, did not continue to attack the military village.

According to Dong Zunhao’s description, the Shu army’s military village was on the mountain and did not block the road, so the inability to attack will not affect the army’s advancement. But leaving the Shu army there, he did not know where to disturb Guo Shao's stomach and back.

The next day, Guo Shao arrived in front of the Shujun Junzhai by boat, and took people out of the boat to see the place... It is indeed a trouble to keep it, as if there is a nail in the middle of the road, maybe anytime. Coming down to harass the army's food road and baggage.

"It's on the mountain over there." The commander who stayed behind at the pass pointed his finger.

When Guo Shao squinted his eyes, he faintly saw some flags on the rocks, and he couldn't see the specific situation from too far away. The large mountain cliffs to the north stand like a row of barriers along the Yangtze River. The scenery is magnificent and magnificent, but Guo Shao doesn't like to be in this kind of place. He always feels a little depressed because his vision is not wide and he is blocked by mountains.

"I'll come closer and see." Guo Shao said.

Zuo You persuaded: "This place is dangerous, the lord does not need to personally take the risk, just send someone to read it and report it."

Guo Shao ignored him, turned his head and said: "Take the armor here and put it on."

Two soldiers brought his things, and Guo Shao took off his coat, wearing a breathable flax underwear. With the help of personal soldiers, he changed into a uniform. First put on chain armor and skirt armor, mainly to protect the movable parts, and then hang the plate armor; for a while, Guo Shao has already weighed more than 50 catties because of the double armor. He took the helmet and put it on again. The inside was padded, and the ears were protected by lock armor on both sides. There is a bulging bag on the top of the semi-circular helmet. It is not a very beautiful design... but because people have long hair at this time. Usually the hair bun is combed, so it is comfortable to have a space for the hair bun.

A group of soldiers also wore armor and equipment, and followed Guo Shao along the mountain pass from the winding road in the bush to the hillside. After everyone left for a while, they saw some Zhou army soldiers standing behind the fence. There is already a very steep stone mountain ahead. There are winding roads on the stone mountain, and the figures of the Shu soldiers stationed on the mountain can already be seen.

"Fuck!" A minister yelled from behind, "Shu people ran to such a place where birds do not **** and set up a military village. What is the use?"

Guo Shao looked up at the top of the mountain, but didn't know what was behind the mountain. Anyway, it must be a mountainous area. "There should be a road behind the mountain, and you can detour to harass the marching road, otherwise it is really meaningless for the Shu army to build a military village here."

"Call the guide." Guo Shao turned his head and shouted. After he shouted, he observed the terrain in front of him. As far as he could see, almost all cliffs were impassable. Only in front of the military village could there be a road digging on the rocks.

After a while, a local man came up, but said that he hadn't been to any scene behind the mountain. It was probably an unpopulated place.

At this moment, a sergeant came up from behind and knelt down on one knee and said: "The army sent someone to take the prisoners up, saying that they had captured several people in the pursuit of the Shu army last night."

"Bring here." Guo Shao said.

Not long afterwards, three people with unarmed and embarrassed uniforms were seen **** and brought up. There were bruises and blood stains on their faces, and it seemed that the generals of the Zhou army suffered a bit after catching them.

The military commander holding the captive shouted: "Just ask you what to say, dare to tying a stone to Shenjiangli!"

The captives drooped their heads, their heads downcast.

Guo Shao pointed to the mountain and asked: "How many people are there in the military village?"

The prisoner of the Shu army in front said: "More than 1,200. There were originally more than 100 people. The Wang Jianjun has recently reinforced more than 1,000 people. A large amount of food has been brought in... Let us guard for half a year."

"Jianjun Wang, is it Wang Zhaoyuan?" Zuo You sighed. The generals commented, "I want to guard for half a year, but he thinks very beautifully."

The captive said: "Don't hide the general, the terrain on the mountain is dangerous, no matter which direction you are really unable to attack. Wang Jianjun sent people to say that... He said that the east of Kuizhou has been laid with a copper wall and an iron wall. Don’t think about Kuizhou in New Year; but because we are the foremost fortress, there is no external reinforcements. As long as we guard for half a year and continue to harass the grain road, so that the Zhou Junbing will be exhausted."r1058
